Progresses on the Influence Factors of Culturability and Cultivation Strategies of Environmental Microorganisms
At present, only a small part of the environmental microorganisms can be recognized and utilized,and the culturable efficiency becomes a bottleneck in making use of the microbial resources.To provide a basis for improving the culturability of microorganisms in the environment, the viable but non-culturable(VB-NC)state and the detection methods, and influence factors of the culturability of microorganisms were summarized;the methods for improving the culturable efficiency were discussed.
