Hollow-Fiber Membrane Chamber as a Device for In Situ Environmental Cultivation [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2009 ABSTRACT A hollow-fiber membrane chamber (HFMC) was developed as an in situ cultivation device for environmental microorganisms. The HFMC system consists of 48 to 96 pieces of porous hollow-fiber membrane connected with injectors. The system allows rapid exchange of chemical compounds, thereby simulating a natural environment.

Phylogenetic identification and in situ detection of individual microbial cells without cultivation [PDF]
Microbiological Reviews, 1995 The frequent discrepancy between direct microscopic counts and numbers of culturable bacteria from environmental samples is just one of several indications that we currently know only a minor part of the diversity of microorganisms in nature. A combination of direct retrieval of rRNA sequences and whole-cell oligonucleotide probing can be used to ...

An in situ method for cultivating microorganisms using a double encapsulation technique. [PDF]
FEMS microbiology ecology, 2009 The lack of cultured microorganisms represents a bottleneck for advancement in microbiology. The development of novel culturing techniques is, therefore, a crucial step in our understanding of microbial diversity in general, and the role of such diversity in the environment, in particular.
