Anaerobic

Description

Anaerobic metabolism takes place without the use of molecular oxygen, in contrast to aerobic metabolism. The capacity for energy assimilation and growth under anoxic conditions is the ultimate criterion for facultative anaerobiosis. Anaerobic metabolism may proceed under hyperoxic, normoxic, hypoxic, microxic or anoxic conditions or states.

Abbreviation: n.a.
