Abstract

Precipitation of calcium carbonate by marine isolates from Bahamian sediments was studied in several media and under different experimental conditions. Almost all cultures brought about precipitation of aragonite crystals. The role of bacteria in the precipitation of CaCO3 in the marine environment is discussed. Copyright © 1970, Wiley Blackwell.
