Contrasting mass‐ratio vs. niche complementarity effects on litter C and N loss during decomposition along a regional climatic gradient (2017, methodology): “We assessed the community-level physiological profiles (CLPP) of soil heterotrophic microbial communities using the MicroRespTM system by testing ecologically meaningful C sources of different chemical recalcitrance (Campbell et al. 2003).”
Soil health in agricultural systems (2008, background): “The so-called ‘community-level physiological profiling’ (CLPP) concept, which measures the ability of the soil community to metabolize a prescribed range of diverse carbon sources, shows potential, particularly when based upon the use of carbon substrates added directly to soil (Degens & Harris 1997”
The influence of vegetation type, soil properties and precipitation on the composition of soil mite and microbial communities at the landscape scale (2010, methodology): “SIR, which reflects the microbial biomass (Beare et al., 1990), was estimated as the difference between basal respiration and respiration with added glucose over 6 h at 25 C using MicroResp (Campbell et al., 2003).”
Active microorganisms in soil: Critical review of estimation criteria and approaches (2013, methodology): “The shortcomings of Biolog are eliminated when dynamics of the substrate utilization are traced by microbial respiration directly in soil without extraction (Degens and Harris, 1997), e.g. in the MicroResp system (Campbell et al., 2003, 2008).”
Soil microbial communities resistant to changes in plant functional group composition (2011, methodology): “Soil samples were analyzed using MicroResp plates, following the protocol described by Campbell et al. (2003).”
The Biolog Plates Technique as a Tool in Ecological Studies of Microbial Communities (2006, background): “Thus, catabolic profiling proposed by Degens avoids many problems related to the use of the Biolog plates, but it still requires high substrate concentrations which can inhibit some species or cause substrate-accelerated death [44, 45].”
Soil aggregate size mediates the impacts of cropping regimes on soil carbon and microbial communities (2015, methodology): “MicroResp and enzyme assays Microplate format of MicroResp™ (Macaulay Scientific Consulting, UK; Campbell et al., 2003) was used to determine basal respiration.”
Lack of functional redundancy in the relationship between microbial diversity and ecosystem functioning (2016, background): “We selected microbial respiration because this general function is widely distributed among different groups of micro-organisms and it is considered as a good proxy of total biological activity (Campbell et al. 2003; Schimel & Weintraub 2003).”
Combined microbial community level and single species biosensor responses to monitor recovery of oil polluted soil (2004, background): “…that if more suitable C substrates relevant to hydrocarbon degradation could be chosen, or if the assay conditions were changed (Campbell et al., 1997), or whole soil used instead of soil extracts (Campbell et al., 2003) then this might improve discrimination between different oil types by CLPPs.”
Big answers from small worlds: a user's guide for protist microcosms as a model system in ecology and evolution (2015, methodology): “MicroRespTM is a microplatebased respiration system to measure CO2 concentration within 4–6 h, based on colorimetric detection (Campbell & Chapman 2003; Campbell, Chapman&Davidson 2003).”
Microbial richness and composition independently drive soil multifunctionality (2017, background): “In addition, basal respiration and glucose- induced respiration have been used as a proxy of microbial activity in soil, while lignin degradation provides a metric of the capacity of a particular microbial community to degrade recalcitrant carbon (Campbell et al. 2003).”
