Building a natural simulated biofilm flow tank

Zusatztext

Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Chemistry - Bio-chemistry, Indian Institute of Science, course: Research Project, language: English, abstract: We can harness the potential of a Winogradsky column in making a large tank with natural biofilm forming simulated conditions, including wind and waves. Over a period of time this environment provides natural biogeochemical cycles and microbial succession to take place resulting in biofilms as of those found in a water body like a lake. We can then study the biofilm forming tendencies of soil microflora in a very convenient and natural way.
