The Effect of Oxygen and Salinity Conditions on Soluble Metabolic Product Formation by Methylomicrobium buryatense 5GB1

Creator:: Cameron, Marina R.
Abstract:: Methanotrophic bacteria are promising means of producing value-added products as they have the ability to transform methane under atmospheric temperature and pressure. Efforts to develop methanotrophs to produce value-added products are hoped to incentivize a decrease in methane flaring operations. The data collected during this study was used to inform...
