New insights on Winogradsky Columns - Simulation of Contaminated Subsurface Systems for Low Cost, Sustainable Bioremediation (Paperback)

Scholarly Research Paper from the year 2011 in the subject Biology - Micro- and Molecular Biology, printed single-sided, grade: A, Indian Institute of Science, course: Microbial Ecology - bioremediation of contaminated subsurface systems, language: English, comment: Using natural biofilms to degrade contaminants in subsurface systems by in depth studies in simulated Winogradsky systems, abstract: Everything is everywhere. The environment selects. Practical applications possible out of winogradsky column like using it as a universal enrichment medium for all microbes to grow as they are and also to isolate and evolve purpose based microbes for degradation studies. Nature is just a hidden Winogradsky column. Thus whatever mechanisms that underlies degradation in field is the same when simulated inside a winogradsky column. So we simulate all the constraints that face the degradation of hard substrates and the mechanisms inside this column to achieve results that can be immediately applied in field, without need of elaborate experimentation with artificial culture medium.
