Fig. 6: SEM and CARD-FISH images from highly enriched fifth generation cultures after 200 days.

From: Crystalline iron oxides stimulate methanogenic benzoate degradation in marine sediment-derived enrichment cultures

Fig. 6

a BM5 enrichment on magnetite. b B5 enrichment cultivated without iron oxides. c BL5 enrichment cultivated with lepidocrocite. Left panels show the SEM images while right panels show CARD-FISH images. Yellow arrows in the left panels point to microbial cells. SEM images in (a) and (c) combined images from back scattered (blue colour) and secondary electron (orange colour) to clearly distinguish between microbial cells and iron oxides.
