Organic compounds serve as toxins, vitamins, food sources, or chelators. These organic compounds may inhibit or stimulate growth or attract or repel other organisms as interchange arrows indicate. Chelators may transport needed metals into the cells or lower metals'in their concentrations around the organism to a non-lethal level.

A compound with a boiling point greater than that of water exhibiting a positive deviation from Raoult's Law is shown in Figure 10. This is called a minimum boiling azeotrope. ...

On all four mud sampling occasions the unconcentrated interstitial mud water was higher in acetone concentration than the water in the reservoir (Figures 15a and 15b).
