The Winogradsky Column: an enclosed self sustaining microbial system.

 The Winogradsky Column: an enclosed self sustaining microbial system. Or, to put it differently, a microbial backyard. The columns are named for a famed Russian microbiologist, Sergei Winogradsky (his wikipedia page could be seen here). Winogradsky made lots of significant discoveries and is believed to be the father of sulfur microbiology. By analyzing nitrogen and sulfur determined microbes, Winogradsky managed to deduce that they got energy from chemical reactions and found that energy to grow carbon dioxide, a chemical procedure called chemoautotrophy. Before his suggestion, just plants and coloured bacteria were believed to rise by adjusting carbon dioxide using light energy; i.e. photoautotrophy. We people are heterotrophs, we must consume repaired carbon (i.e. crops, animals, candy bars) to find the electricity and carbon we utilize to grow. The columns were devised by Winogradsky as a means to enhance for germs out of sediments and soils. Enrichment method to develop certa...
