Van Heerden, J.; Korf, Carla; Ehlers, Marthie Magdaleen; Cloete, Thomas Eugene (Water Research Council, 2002-07)Diversity and dynamics of microbial communities have been analysed by culture-dependant methods, which exclude the majority of fastidious microbes due to the selective nature of the media. Molecular methods have been used ...

Van Heerden, J.; Ehlers, Marthie Magdaleen; Cloete, Thomas Eugene (Elsevier, 2001)In this study, different carbon source profiles were generated by inoculating Biolog GN microwell plates, with different dilutions of microbial communities from a number of activated sludge systems. This led to the successful ...
