Currently, a lot of researcher’s attention is devoted to the problem microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC), since it causes huge damages economy, initiating destruction oil and gas pipelines other underground constructions. To protect industrial materials from MIC effects an organic chemical inhibitors are massively used. However, their use associated with toxicity, dangerous for environ...

Hydrogen produced during colonic fermentation may be excreted, or removed by H2 consuming bacteria such as methanogenic and sulphate reducing bacteria. In vitro, sulphate reducing bacteria compete with methanogenic bacteria for hydrogen when sulphate is present. In this study the hypothesis that sulphate in the diet could alter CH4 production in vivo has been tested. Six methane excreting volun...
