Putrefactive H2S production in the upper 4 cm of sediment in 2 small freshwater and eutrophic Southeast Michigan, USA, lakes ranged from 0.13-1.51 with an average of 0.46 mg S l-1 day -1. Sulfate reductive production of H2S at the same sites ranged from 0.7-3.2 with an average of 1.54 mg S l-1 day-1. Putrefactive H2S production represented 5.1-53% (average of 18.3-27.6%) of the total H2S produced at the 2 lakes over an April-Oct. study period. 35S-labeled-substrates were used to estimate H2S production rates. Proteolytic bacteria averaged 2.2 .times. 104 cells/ml sediment; sulfate reducers averaged 4.8 .times. 104 cells/ml sediment. Putrefactive hydrogen sulfide production correlated highly with numbers of proteolytic bacteria (r2 = 0.84) but the correlation between sulfate reduction and sulfate reducing bacteria was low (r2 = 0.13). Interstitial soluble inorganic sulfate, protein and organic C were not closely correlated with H2S production rates or bacteria enumeration results. Natural substrate concentrations used to estimate H2S production were supported by kinetic bioassay results.
