Metabolically Active Microbial Communities in Oilfields: A Systematic Review and Synthesis of RNA Preservation, Extraction, and Sequencing Methods

Metabolically Active Microbial Communities in Oilfields: A Systematic Review and Synthesis of RNA Preservation, Extraction, and Sequencing Methods

Characterizing metabolically active microorganisms using RNA-based methods is a crucial tool for monitoring and mitigating operational issues, such as oil biodegradation and biocorrosion of pipelines in the oil and gas industry. Our review, a pioneering study, addresses the main methods used to pres...
