Abstract
Adenosine phosphosulphate reductase (APS reductase) (E.C.1.8.99.2), viable counts of sulphate‐reducing bacteria and rates of sulphate reduction were determined in 20 human samples of faeces. The activity of APS reductase, in contrast to sulphate reduction rates, correlated well with viable counts (r= 0.987) and may therefore be used rapidly to quantify sulphate‐reducing bacteria in human gut contents.
