Aerobic methanotrophic bacteria of cold ecosystems.
This review summarizes the recent advances in understanding the ecophysiological role and structure-function features of methanotrophic bacteria living in various cold ecosystems. The occurrence of methanotrophs in a majority of psychrosphere sites was verified by direct measurement of their methane-utilizing activity, by electron microscopy and immunofluorescent observations, and analyses of s...
متن کاملDetection of methanotrophic bacteria in environmental samples with the PCR.
We designed PCR primers by using the DNA sequences of the soluble methane monooxygenase gene clusters of Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b and Methylococcus capsulatus (Bath), and these primers were found to be specific for four of the five structural genes in the soluble methane monooxygenase gene clusters of several methanotrophs. We also designed primers for the gram-negative methylotroph-spec...
متن کاملATP content and biomass activity in sequential anaerobic/aerobic reactors.
Specific ATP content of volatile solids was measured to characterize the sludge activity in a sequential an-aerobic/aerobic wastewater treatment system, with an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor and a three-phase aerobic fluidized bed (AFB) reactor. The wastewater COD level was 2000-3000 mg/L in simulation of real textile waste-water. The ATP content and the specific ATP contents o...
متن کاملAerobic H2 respiration enhances metabolic flexibility of methanotrophic bacteria
26 Methanotrophic bacteria are important soil biofilters for the climate-active gas 27 methane. The prevailing opinion is that these bacteria exclusively metabolise single28 carbon, and in limited instances, short-chain hydrocarbons for growth. This specialist 29 lifestyle juxtaposes metabolic flexibility, a key strategy for environmental adaptation 30 of microorganisms. Here we show that a met...
متن کاملIsolation of Aerobic and Anaerobic Bacteria in Transient Bacteremia
The normal oral cavity has a large and diverse resident microflora. These microorganisms are generally considered non-pathogenic and as normal inhabitants of the oral cavity. Bacteremia in dentistry frequently occurs due to entry of these bacteria into the bloodstream following procedures such as periodontal probing, root canal treatment, orthodontic treatment, and oral hygiene procedures. Inva...
