Stenoprophiluric media provide for the creation and sustained well being of micro-habitats in uncontrolled host habitats in order to study the biological, biochemical and physical (morphological) properties of the organisms and their consortiums inherently and/or in relationship to competing or proximal micro-habitats as well. Given this in-situ method of study of these consortiums; sampling of metabolic bio-chemicals both primary and secondary is readily achieved. By providing this medium or platform for natural in-situ evaluation of varying host habitats and/or multiple sub-habitats ( micro-habitats) in the same host habitat, conditions and changing relationships can be evaluated; physically, biologically, and chemically. Evaluation enhancements by this method provides for the ability to sample discrete chemicals or groups of chemicals and/or compounds for easy bio-activity evaluation. Further, morphological and taxonomic evaluation of micro-habitats is permitted whereby, relationships and evaluation of changes in settling, growth, or mature bio-film formations can be readily accomplished. |
