Excerpt from PMID 27015005: Peat soil microcosms were set up by mixing 30 g of fresh soil (10-20 cm depth) with 60 ml of filter-sterilized (0.2 μm) and anoxic peat water in 250 ml sterile glass bottles. Microcosms were sealed under 100 % N₂ with butyl rubber septa and incubated for 53 days in the dark at 14 °C. Microcosms were periodically amended from the first day of incubation with formate, acetate, propionate, lactate, or butyrate, or incubated without any external substrate. Half of the substrate-amended and -unamended microcosms additionally received periodic amendments of sulfate. These microcosms were initially spiked with sulfate, and, thereafter, were periodically amended with small amounts of sulfate. Triplicate microcosms were set up per incubation condition (36 microcosms in total).
