Results from shipboard high-pressure incubations of diffuse flow vent fluids collected from the Crab Spa and Alvinella sites at East Pacific Rise during the AT26-10 expedition, Jan. 2014 (Microbial Communities at Deep-Sea Vents project)The integrated system allows for the culturing of microorganisms under hydrostatic pressures from 0.1 to 69 MPa (and up to 138 MPa with ongoing developments) and at temperatures ranging from 25 to 120°C. For full description, see Foustoukos and Perez-Rodriguez (2015), Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 81, 6850 custom high pressure bioreactor
Microbial cell abundance,carbon fixation rates, and nitrate concentrations during shipboard incubations of vent fluids at the diffuse-flow vent Crab Spa, East Pacific Rise on RV/Atlantis cruise AT37-12, May 2017A Vent-SID, Vent-Submersible Incubation Device, was used for on-deck incubations. It draws seawater and microbes into incubation chambers and measures the biochemical business going on under natural conditions.
