Inconsistent results for the effects of sulfate inhibition on the performance of dechlorination enrichment cultures have been reported in the literature. These inconsistent findings make it difficult to understand potential mechanisms of sulfate inhibition and complicate the interpretation of bioremediation field data. In order to elucidate interactions between sulfate reduction and reductive dechlorination, this study systematically evaluated the effects of different concentrations of sulfate and sulfide on reductive dechlorination by isolates, constructed consortia, and enrichments containing\n            <jats:named-content content-type=\"genus-species\">Dehalococcoides<\/jats:named-content>\n            sp. This study provides a more fundamental understanding of the competition mechanisms between reductive dechlorination by\n            <jats:named-content content-type=\"genus-species\">Dehalococcoides mccartyi<\/jats:named-content>\n            and sulfate reduction during the bioremediation process. It also provides insights on the significance of sulfate concentrations on reductive dechlorination under electron donor\/acceptor-limiting conditions during\n            <jats:italic>in situ<\/jats:italic>\n            bioremediation applications. For example, at a trichloroethene-contaminated site with a high sulfate concentration, proper slow-releasing electron donors can be selected to generate an electron donor-limiting environment that favors reductive dechlorination and minimizes the sulfide inhibition effect.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1128\/aem.03384-16","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,2,4]],"date-time":"2017-02-04T01:50:17Z","timestamp":1486173017000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1128\/asmj-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":65,"title":["Effects of Sulfate Reduction on Trichloroethene Dechlorination by Dehalococcoides-Containing Microbial Communities"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"83","author":[{"given":"Xinwei","family":"Mao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, College of Engineering, University of California, Berkeley, California, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alexandra","family":"Polasko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, College of Engineering, University of California, Berkeley, California, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lisa","family":"Alvarez-Cohen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, College of Engineering, University of California, Berkeley, California, USA"},{"name":"Earth and Environmental Sciences Division, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, California, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"235","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/10643380600776130"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","volume-title":"IRIS toxicological review of trichloroethylene","author":"U.S. Environmental Protection Agency","year":"2011","unstructured":"U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. 2011.
