Method for Measuring Mineralization in Lake Sediments
AUTOR(ES)
Harrison, Michael J.
RESUMO
A method is described for measuring the mineralization of an organic solute (14C-glucose) by the heterotrophic indigenous bacteria in lake sediments. Since there is no suitable procedure for the determination of in situ microbial activities in sediments, the procedure described is probably the best devised so far and may serve as a base for a more definitive procedure.
