Methanogenesis was irreversibly inhibited in sediments by concentrations of acetylene employed in nitrogen fixation assays (1 to 20%, vol/vol). Ethylene, but not ethane, also stopped methane production, and the inhibition was reversed by gassing with hydrogen.
在固氮试验中使用的乙炔浓度(1%至20%,体积/体积)可使沉积物中的甲烷生成受到不可逆抑制。乙烯而非乙烷也会阻止甲烷生成,且通过用氢气通气可逆转这种抑制作用。
