Natural microbial consortia from hot spring samples were used to developed thermophilic mixed cultures for biohydrogen production from cassava starch processing wastewater (CSPW). Significant hydrogen production potentials were obtained from three thermophilic mixedculturesnamelyPK,SWandPRwithmaximumhydrogenproductionyieldsof249.3, 180 and 124.9 mL H2/g starch, respectively from raw cassava sta...

A new facultative chemolithoautotrophic arsenite (As(III))-oxidizing bacterium TCC9-4 was isolated from a hot spring microbial mat in Tengchong of Yunnan, China. This strain could grow with As(III) as an energy source, CO2-HCO3 (-) as a carbon source and oxygen as the electron acceptor in a minimal salts medium. Under chemolithoautotrophic conditions, more than 90% of 100 mg/L As(III) could be ...

Production and hosting by Abstract The Rehai Geothermal Field, located in Tengchong County, in central-western Yunnan Province, is the largest and most intensively studied geothermal field in China. Awide physicochemical diversity of springs (ambient to w97 C; pH from 1.8 to 9.3) provides a multitude of niches for extremophilic microorganisms. A variety of studies have focused on the cultivatio...

It was reported that hyperglycemia may be elicited in the intact dog (Sutherland and Rail, 1960; Posternak ci at., 1962) and rat by administration of the cyclic nucleotide, 3’, 5’-AMP,4 in doses of 10 mg/kg and greater (Northrop and Parks, 1964a). Also, it was shown with the isolated perfused rat liver that hyperglycemia, glycogenolysis and a-glucan phosphorylase5 activation can be caused by pe...

As our reliance on aluminum (Al) increases, so too does its presence in the environment and living systems. Although generally recognized as safe, its interactions with most living systems have been nefarious. This review presents an overview of the noxious effects of Al and how a subset of microbes can rework their metabolic pathways in order to survive an Al-contaminated environment. For inst...

Hot springs are of great importance due to their unique physicochemical properties. Due selection pressure in this habitat, a diverse microbial community is prevailing and can be analyzed by high throughput sequencing technology. Present study focuses on metagenomic two hot from Gujarat, India namely Tuwa Unnai through both, culturable culture independent approach. Sequence analysis both the wa...
