“…The PLFAs identified in samples of the study were as follows: 12:1 3OH, 13:0 2OH, 14:0, 14:0a, 15:0 iso, 15:0a, 15:0i, 16:0, 16:0a, 16:0 N alcohol, 16:1w7c, 17:0, 17:0a, 17:1 iso, 18:0, 18:1w7c, 18:1w9c, 18:2w6, 9c, 18:3w6, 9, 12c, 19:1 iso and 19:0 10-methyl. Total PLFAs were used as an index of total living microbial biomass (Chapman and Newman 2010).…”
