• WELCOME
    at our Microbial Ecology and Limnic Microbiology webpage

    We do research in the fields of Microbiology
    and Microbial Ecology, Physiology and Biochemistry,

    - on the microorganisms of our beautiful Lake Constance,

    - on the elucidation of bacterial pathways for
    degradation of natural compounds,
    xenobiotic industrial chemicals and (bio)plastic, and

    - on bacterial biofilm formation, biofilm dispersal
    and biofilm control.
