Journal ArticleDOI
Factors affecting mass transfer limited biodegradation in saturated porous media.
Stefano F Simoni,Anke Schäfer,Anke Schäfer,Hauke Harms,Hauke Harms,Alexander J. B. Zehnder,Alexander J. B. Zehnder +6 more
TL;DR: Mass transfer limitation offers a justification for the common assumption that biodegradation rates in the subsurface follow first order kinetics in a wide concentration range.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ferrous iron dependent nitric oxide production in nitrate reducing cultures of Escherichia coli
TL;DR: Ferric iron reduction activity in E. coli E4 was found to be constitutive and ferric iron could not be used as electron acceptor for growth, unlike nitrate, which was anaerobically converted to nitric oxide and nitrous oxide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of two phosphate transport systems in Acinetobacter johnsonii 210A.
TL;DR: Results suggest that the high-affinity transport system belongs to the group of ATP-driven, binding-protein-dependent transport systems, and the ability to decrease the free internal P(i) pool by forming polyP enable A. johnsonii 210A to reduce the P( i) concentration in the aerobic environment to micromolar levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polysaccharide synthesis in relation to nodulation behavior of Rhizobium leguminosarum
Michaël W. Breedveld,H C Cremers,Michael Batley,M A Posthumus,Ludovicus P. T. M. Zevenhuizen,C. A. Wijffelman,Alexander J. B. Zehnder +6 more
TL;DR: It is impossible to correlate a defect in the synthesis of a particular polysaccharide with nodulation characteristics, so it is hypothesize that this strain RBL5515 exo-344::Tn5 is affected in a galactose transferase involved inThe synthesis of EPS only.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enzymatic evidence for involvement of the methylmalonyl-CoA pathway in propionate oxidation by Syntrophobacter wolinii.
TL;DR: Most of the enzymes involved in the methylmalonyl- CoA pathway for propionate oxidation, including a propionyl-CoA: oxaloacetate transcarboxylase, were demonstrated in S. wolinii.
