title: [Physiological activity of mixed cultures of Methylcoccus capsulatus UKM B-3030 with Bacillus megaterium UKM B-5723T and Bacillus subtilis VKPM B-1489 on solid surface colonization].
abstract: Physiological activity of monoculture of Methylococcus capsulatus UCM B-3030 and its mixed cultures with two bacilli species distinguished by proteolytical properties--Bacillus megaterium UCM B-5723T and Bacillus subtilis BK[symbol: see text]M B-4189 in terms of long-duration cultivation is investigated. It is shown, that the most active methane consumption by methanotrophic bacteria and their mixed cultures with bacilli under solid surface colonization occurred on the second-eighth day of cultivation. The obtained results permit one to evaluate intensity of CH4 oxidation process by typical microflora of some econiches (depleted coal mines, in particular).
