Microorganisms present in Atlantic Ocean sediment samples collected at a depth of 4,940 m were found to be capable of utilizing hydrocarbons under both ambient and in situ pressures. The rate of utilization under in situ pressure (500 atm) and ambient temperature (20 C) was found to be significantly less compared with hydrocarbon utilization examined under conditions of ambient temperature (20 C) and pressure (1 atm).
在深度为4940米处采集的大西洋海洋沉积物样本中发现的微生物,被发现在环境压力和原位压力下都能够利用碳氢化合物。与在环境温度(20℃)和压力(1个大气压)条件下检测的碳氢化合物利用情况相比,原位压力(500个大气压)和环境温度(20℃)下的利用速率明显较低。
