THE ECO-PHYSIOLOGY, STRESS RESPONSE REGULATION, AND ENGINEERING OF SHEWANELLA SPECIES FOR INDUSTRIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL APPLICATIONS
(2016-11-28)
In recent decades, there has been tremendous interest in applying environmental microbiology for waste treatment, bioremediation and sustainable energy production. As one of the most important model environmental microbes, ...
Measuring the Impact of Microbial Communities and their Proliferation in Engineered Ecosystems
(2016-06)
The interactions between humans, the structures we build, and the microorganisms that inhabit these spaces are inescapable. Engineered ecosystems are classified broadly as any ecosystem built or managed by humans. Buildings ...
Ecological Investigations of Hydrocarbonoclastic Microbial Communities Associated with the Built-Environment
(2016-09)
Evidence for the microbial metabolism of hydrocarbons is routinely identified in diverse habitats, but particularly those associated with the production, processing, storage and use of petroleum. In these environments, ...
FUNCTIONAL GENOMICS STUDIES OF CLOSTRIDIUM CELLULOLYTICUM FOR LIGNOCELLULOSE BIOCONVERSION
(2016-12)
The astonishing consumption of fossil fuels arouses serious concerns over energy security and environmental sustainability. Lignocellulosic biofuel, as a sustainable and carbon-neutral energy that can be produced from ...
