Extensive enzymatic studies have been conducted on cell-free fractions from a thermophilic bacterium designated as National Canners Association strain 2184 and tentativelv identified as Bacillus stearothermophilus Donk (1920), (Militzer et al., 1949, 1950, 1951, 1952; Georgi et al., 1951; h'Iarsh and Militzer, 1952). Preparatory to extending these investigations to other thermophilic bacteria, ...

Thermophilic bacteria play an important role in aroma formation during pile-fermentation process of dark tea. With the aim to reveal impact thermophilic on volatile compounds tea, Bacillus licheniformis (thermophilic bacteria) were inoculated into sun-dried green tea for spontaneous fermentation. In this study, headspace solid phase microextraction combined gas chromatography mass spectrometry ...

Brevibacillus thermoruber strain 423 is a Gram-positive, spore-forming, aerobic, and thermophilic bacterium that produces mannogalactoglucan exopolysaccharide (EPS). We report the draft genome sequence of B. thermoruber 423, which will accelerate research on the cellular organization of thermophilic bacteria, as well as the rational design and optimization of EPS production.

We studied the evolution of thermophily in prokaryotes using the phylogenetic relationships between 279 bacteria and archaea and their thermophilic amino acid composition signature. Our findings suggest several examples in which the capacity of thermophilic adaptation has been gained or lost over relatively short evolutionary periods throughout the evolution of prokaryotes.

The draft genome sequence of Geobacillus subterraneus strain K, a thermophilic aerobic oil-oxidizing bacterium isolated from production water of the Uzen high-temperature oil field in Kazakhstan, is presented here. The genome is annotated for elucidation of the genomic and phenotypic diversity of thermophilic alkane-oxidizing bacteria.

It is becoming interestingly apparent that innovations of the classical antibiotics are not effective, that induces need for novel drugs. Peptide antibiotics exhibit a group of secondary metabolites with hydrophobic and cyclic structures containing d-amino acidc like compounds with more resistant to proteolytic degradation. Bacterial peptides can possess bactericidal, fungicidal, metal chelatin...

Spores of thermophilic spore-forming bacteria are a common cause of contamination in dairy products. Here, we report draft genome sequences of four thermophilic strains from a milk-processing plant or standard milk, namely, a Geobacillus thermoglucosidans isolate (TNO-09.023), Geobacillus stearothermophilus TNO-09.027, and two Anoxybacillus flavithermus isolates (TNO-09.014 and TNO-09.016).

Spores of thermophilic spore-forming bacteria are a common cause of contamination in dairy products. We isolated the thermophilic strain Anoxybacillus flavithermus TNO-09.006 from a milk-processing plant, and we report the complete genome of this isolate consisting of a single chromosome of 2.65 Mb.

Thermophilic spore-forming bacteria are a common cause of contamination in dairy products. We isolated the thermophilic strain Geobacillus thermoglucosidans TNO-09.020 from a milk processing plant and report the complete genome of a dairy plant isolate consisting of a single chromosome of 3.75 Mb.

During 2008, a study has been conducted on the potential of Alphitobius diaperinus as a reservoir of many poultry pathogenic bacteria, in twenty broiler houses in the North-East of Algeria. Many groups of bacteria have been enumerated; Salmonella and thermophilic campylobacters contaminations have been searched. Both adults and larvae carried and harbored multiple species and numbers of poultry...
