Ion exchange chromatography is used to monitor the concentration of ionic species in bacterial growth media. The ions of interest are sulfate, lactate, acetate, and carbonate. All of these ions play important roles in the metabolism of the desired bacteria. It is possible, using this monitoring technique, to explore the growth of sulfate-reducing bacteria of the Desulfovibrio genus.
