Molecular methods used for evaluating subsurface remediation

Research output: Chapter in Book/Entry/PoemConference contribution

Abstract

Advances in the field of molecular biology have revolutionized the tools available to study microorganisms in the environment. Recently developed molecular biological techniques are providing insight into the diversity, community structure, and function of environmentally relevant microbes. While providing fundamental knowledge regarding the metabolic capabilities of microorganisms, the information being provided using the new methods is critical for addressing issues regarding the implementation of bioremediation for subsurface remediation.
