Methanogens utilize simple carbon compounds to produce methane (CH(4)) under strictly anaerobic condition. During methanogenesis, methyl coenzyme M (MeCoM) is reduced by MeCoM reductase enzyme to CH(4) involving a nickel-containing cofactor F(430). In this experiment, strong chelating agent like ethylenediaminetetraacetic
