This Volume addresses the pros and cons of oligonucleotide probes,
primers and primer combinations, and importantly considers how to
design the best tools for the microbial taxa and/or processes being
investigated. Individual chapters focus on the design of primers
targeting genes that code for enzymes associated with the following
functions: degradation of aromatic, aliphatic and chlorinated
hydrocarbons under aerobic and anaerobic conditions,
methanogenesis, methane oxidation, and the nitrogen cycle.
Hydrocarbon and Lipid Microbiology Protocols There are tens of
thousands of structurally different hydrocarbons, hydrocarbon
derivatives and lipids, and a wide array of these molecules are
required for cells to function. The global hydrocarbon cycle, which
is largely driven by microorganisms, has a major impact on our
environment and climate. Microbes are responsible for cleaning up
the environmental pollution caused by the exploitation of
hydrocarbon reservoirs and will also be pivotal in reducing our
reliance on fossil fuels by providing biofuels, plastics and
industrial chemicals. Gaining an understanding of the relevant
functions of the wide range of microbes that produce, consume and
modify hydrocarbons and related compounds will be key to responding
to these challenges. This comprehensive collection of current and
emerging protocols will facilitate acquisition of this
understanding and exploitation of useful activities of such
microbes.
