Modelling Diffusion and Degradation of 13C-Glucose in Soil Aggregates.
Geoderma 56, 561-573 (1993)
A deterministic model was developed to simulate the microbial utilization and diffusion of finite amounts of substrate from the surface of a model aggregate into the intra-aggregate pore spaces. Experiments were performed for comparison with the simulation results and to estimate the effective intra-aggregate diffusion coefficient for glucose. Glucose was applied to the surfaces of sterilized and nonsterilized aggregates and the induced 13CO2-respiration and radial glucose distribution were measured. ATP measurements show a developing radial gradient of microbial activity decreasing from the outer to the inner part of the aggregate.
