A growing number of Acidobacteria strains have been isolated from environments worldwide, with most isolates derived from acidic samples and affiliated with subdivision 1. We recovered 18 Acidobacteria strains from an alkaline soil, among which 11 belonged to the previously uncultured subdivision 6. Various medium formulations were tested for their effects on Acidobacteria growth.

Cladosporium cladosporioides H1 was found to be the most abundant microbe in Janggyeong Panjeon. C. cladosporioides H1 produced a 20 kDa xylanase, which was generally stable below 60℃ and had specialized activity in an acidic condition. Our results may lead to the development of a strategy for preservation of organic cultural heritage environments.

alzheimer’s disease (ad) is a neurodegenerative disease that was characterized with deposit of beta amyloid (aβ) aggregate in senile plaque. oxidative damage to neurons and loss of cholinergic neurons in forebrain region are observed in this disease. melissa officinalis is a medicinal plant from lamiaceae family, used traditionally in the treatment of cognitive disorders. it has cholinomimetic ...

Brook trout (Sahelinus fontinalis Mitchill) with a chronically implanted dorsal aortic cannula were exposed to acidic environments. During exposure, trout developed severe metabolic acidosis as shown by decreases in standard plasma bicarbonate levels as well as negative base excess values. Reduced oxygen consumption seen in acidotic trout resulted from decreased gill oxygen transfer and reduced...

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of the acid-tolerant yeast Candida zemplinina NP2, which was isolated from peach peels. This genome sequence will aid in the understanding of the organism's physiological properties as a potential producer of organic acids in acidic environments.

Microbial dissimilatory sulfate reduction is commonplace in many anaerobic environments, though few acidophilic bacteria are known to mediate this process. We report the 4.64-Mb draft genome of the type strain of the moderate acidophile Desulfosporosinus acididurans, which was isolated from acidic sediment in a river draining the Soufrière volcano, Montserrat.
