Project type
Exploratory Research
Substantial evidence supports the view that microorganisms can effect widespread geochemical changes in the lithosphere. The alteration of basalts to palagonite was once viewed as a chemical process…

Phenotypic characterization of TCE and PCE degrading Dehalococcoides

Lead Institution
Oregon State University
Principal Investigator
Martin Fisk
Project type
Exploratory Research
We presently have in our laboratory several anaerobic mixed cultures, enriched from contaminated aquifer soils, capable of reductively dechlorinating TCE or PCE fully to ethene in the presence of…
