“…In the case of difficult-to-cultivate microorganisms, hydrogen, methane, ethane, carbon dioxide, and other gases could be generated by electrolysis, allowing growth of methanogens, methanotrophs, and many diverse microorganisms (Eberson, 1969;Gileadi and Piersma, 1966;Hori et al, 2002;Petrucci, 1982). Electrolysis is particularly useful for establishing repeatable microaerobic or microgas conditions.…”
