Denitrifying bacteria respond to and shape microscale gradients within particulate matrices

Smriga et al. investigate heterotrophic denitrification in particulate matrices. Their model shows that Pseudomonas aeruginosa cells and microcolonies metabolically shade each other, allowing denitrification to occur microns away from O2-saturated bulk water, and simulates microscale effects of a bu...

Sumario:Smriga et al. investigate heterotrophic denitrification in particulate matrices. Their model shows that Pseudomonas aeruginosa cells and microcolonies metabolically shade each other, allowing denitrification to occur microns away from O2-saturated bulk water, and simulates microscale effects of a bulk system.
