Energy transformation was studied in the processes of hydrocarbon metabolism by microorganisms in oil-contaminated grey-brown soil. For such microbial populations as Candida species which use hydrocarbon substrates only as an energy source but not for growth, the criteria of biomass or incidence are presumed to have a relative significance for revealing the comparative functional role of these populations in the self-purification of oil-contaminated soils. Therefore, it is necessary to simultaneously assay both the incidence and the functional activity of microorganisms expressed in terms of respiration intensity. A diagram is proposed which shows the role of Candida yeasts in transforming the energy of aromatic and paraffin hydrocarbons in oil-contaminated soils.
对石油污染的灰棕色土壤中微生物进行烃类代谢过程中的能量转化进行了研究。对于仅将烃类底物用作能源而非生长能源的念珠菌属等微生物种群，生物量或发生率标准被认为对于揭示这些种群在石油污染土壤自净过程中的相对功能作用具有重要意义。因此，有必要同时测定微生物的发生率和以呼吸强度表示的功能活性。提出了一个图表，展示了念珠菌酵母在石油污染土壤中转化芳烃和石蜡烃能量方面的作用。
