Measurement of the adenylate energy charge ratio is proposed as a means of determining the growth state of natural microbial communities and the effect of environmental changes on them. Observations on microbial cultures and on natural microbial populations from the Western North Atlantic Ocean water and from sediments of a costal salt marsh show that energy charge measurements do show the metabolic state of communities as well as species populations.
有人提出,测量腺苷酸能荷比是确定自然微生物群落生长状态以及环境变化对其影响的一种方法。对微生物培养物以及来自北大西洋西部海水和沿海盐沼沉积物中的自然微生物种群的观察表明,能荷测量确实能显示群落以及物种种群的代谢状态。
