Not many,
by microbial standards — 300 cells in 1 milliliter of ice vs. 100,000 cells in seawater — but they're there, in tiny veins of liquid water that crisscross the solid ice and serve as «little houses,» Priscu said, which also contain nutrients that could feed a hungry microbe.
The IAQ may be compromised
by microbial contaminants (mold, bacteria), chemicals (such as carbon monoxide, radon), allergens, or any mass or energy stressor that can induce health effects.
Researchers suspect an autoimmune reaction is to blame because many people who develop narcolepsy — and just about everyone with the vaccine - associated form — have a specific variant in a gene in the HLA family, which helps the body distinguish its own proteins from those made
by microbial invaders.

by the microbial community, while the total amount of microbial biomass stays about the same» explains University of Vienna ecologist and IIASA guest researcher Christina Kaiser, who led the study.
Synthetic fertilizer is available as a variety of commercial products, with different nitrogen - release times, whereas manure and pulse crops need to be broken down

The PDF, Microbes Make the Cheese, A Report from the American Academy for Microbiology explains: Cheese is created
by orderly successions of
microbial communities that produce compounds responsible for cheese flavor... Each piece of cheese contains as many as 10,000,000,000 or 10 billion microbes... The added starter cultures dominate the cheese microbiota, establishing conditions that select for the next microorganisms that will be capable of thriving in the changing cheese matrix.

by the combined action of cheese maturation and enzymes naturally found in milk and through the use of processing aids such as «scotta innesto» (starter culture with a high
microbial biodiversity) and calf rennet paste.
