Abstract:

The objectives of this work are to develop methods that can be applied to the assessment of bioremediation by methanotrophs. These methods are for the detection of methanotrophs, evaluation of methanotroph activity, estimation of the size of the methanotroph population, assessment of population diversity in methanotrophic bacteria.
