Abstract

The technique of micro segmented flow is well applicable for the investigation of soil microorganisms. It supplies highly resolved dose/ response functions for whole microbial communities as well as for single strains. In addition, it can be used in the search for microbial strains with special tolerance features, for example for enhanced concentrations of cobalt and nickel. Such strains have been found in soil samples from the surface of ancient copper mining areas and metal-contaminated soils from archaeological excavations.
