Abstract
Methanogenic bacteria, which are presently identified on the basis of cell morphology and substrate conversion to CH 4 , can be differentiated from nonmethanogens and identified in pure or mixed culture on the basis of their autofluorescence under ultraviolet illumination.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
