MICROBIOLOGICALLY INFLUENCED CORROSION OF CARBON STEEL IN SULFIDOGENIC ENVIRONMENTS: THE LINK TO THIOSULFATE REDUCTION AND BIOLOGICAL STABILITY OF ALTERNATIVE FUELS
(2015-12)
Biocorrosion or microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) refers to the mutiple underlying mechanisms wherein microbial activity directly or indirectly enhances the corrosion of metallic and non-metallic materials. ...
Improvement of lignocellulose bioconversion in Clostridium cellulolyticum and identification of active lignocellulose degraders in temperate grassland
(2020-11)
As the most abundant sustainable carbon resource on the earth, lignocellulose is considered as one of the most promising feedstocks to produce biofuels, which can mitigate the environmental issues brought by burning of ...
STUDYING THE GASTROINTESTINAL MICROBIOME OF A TRADITIONAL PERUVIAN COMMUNITY
(2018-08-24)
The human gastrointestinal (GI) tract is an ecosystem that is home to a plethora of bacteria, archaea, microeukaryotes, and viruses, collectively termed the “gut microbiota” or “microbiome” when referring to the genetic ...
Reproductive studies in the genus Callirhoe (Malvaceae)/
(1981)
Callirhoe involucrata (Torr.) Gray (Malvaceae) is protandrous; however, the temporal separation of the sexual phases is incomplete and the occurrence of a self pollination is possible. Unexpected results were obtained ...
Assessing the impact of microorganisms capable of degrading biodiesel and diesel fuel in storage tanks
(2021-12-06)
Microbiological contamination in petroleum-based fuels has been exacerbated with the addition of fatty acid methyl esters to diesel fuels. Consequences of microbiological contamination of these fuels can lead to degraded ...
Study of the role of the Myxococcus xanthus ESG locus in development and lipid biosynthesis.
(1998)
Analysis of the pattern of expression of developmentally regulated genes in the esg mutant background, suggests that E-signaling dependent events of development occur after 3 to 5 hours of development. It has been predicted ...
Bioenergetic perspectives of syntrophic substrate degradation.
(1999)
The anaerobic bacteria Syntrophomonas wolfei, Syntrophus gentianae, Syntrophus buswellii, and Syntrophus aciditrophicus grown in coculture with a hydrogen-consuming partner degraded butyrate and benzoate to a threshold ...
Assessing the influence of physical and chemical properties of sediments on microbial distribution and activity in the terrestrial subsurface.
(2005)
To maximize the possibility for success, accurate assessment of the distribution and activity of microorganisms in the subsurface is essential for implementing bioremediation strategies at contaminated sites. It is clear ...
Analysis of the functional conservation of genes in a plant single cell type: the root hair cell
(2017-12)
The evolution of plant species is tightly associated with major changes in their genome such as their allopolyploidy and autopolyploidy. These paleopolyploid events and recent genome duplications have contributed to the ...
The influence of nitrate on the short-term corrosion of steel catalyzed by marine microorganisms
(2019-12)
Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is of global concern and a threat due to its economic, environmental as well as public health implications. Identifying the factors that govern or influence MIC is beneficial ...
