[...] las bacterias planctónicas [...] generalmente se encuentran formando parte de un consorcio con las bacterias productoras de [...] exopolímeros, las cuales contribuyen a la generación de la biopelícula. Una vez integrada, la biopelícula se convierte en un micronicho donde el metabolismo de los aerobios presentes ocasiona una disminución importante del oxígeno, provocando un ambiente anóxico, propicio para el desarrollo de las BSR [bacterias sulfato reductoras]. 1, record 1, Spanish, - micronicho
