Journal ArticleDOI

Physiology, Ecology, Phylogeny, and Genomics of Microorganisms Capable of Syntrophic Metabolism

Michael J. McInerney, +7 more
- 01 Mar 2008 - 
TL;DR: The availability of the first complete genome sequences for four model microorganisms capable of syntrophic metabolism provides the genetic framework to begin dissecting the biochemistry of the marginal energy economies and interspecies interactions that are characteristic of the syntrophic lifestyle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Substrate and product inhibition of hydrogen production by the extreme thermophile caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus

Ed W. J. van Niel, +2 more
- 05 Feb 2003 - 
TL;DR: Substrate and product inhibition of hydrogen production during sucrose fermentation by the extremely thermophilic bacterium Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus was studied and ionic strength was responsible for inhibition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Purification and characterization of an extremely thermostable β-glucosidase from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus

Servé W. M. Kengen, +3 more
- 01 Apr 1993 - 
TL;DR: Cell-free extracts of cellobiose-grown cells of the hyperthermophile Pyrococcus furiosus contain very high activities of a beta-glucosidase, which was purified 22-fold to apparent homogeneity, indicating that the enzyme comprises nearly 5% of the total cell protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sulfate reduction in methanogenic bioreactors

Stefanie J.W.H., +4 more
- 01 Oct 1994 - 
TL;DR: In the anaerobic treatment of sulfate-containing wastewater, sulfate reduction interferes with methanogenesis, and a remarkable feature of some sulfate reducers is their ability to grow fermentatively or to grow in syntrophic association with meethanogens in the absence of sulfates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhanced biodegradation of aromatic pollutants in cocultures of anaerobic and aerobic bacterial consortia

Jim A. Field, +3 more
- 01 Jan 1995 - 
TL;DR: Aside from mineralization, polyhydroxylated and chlorinated phenols as well as nitroaromatics and aromatic amines are susceptible to polymerization in aerobic environments and an alternative approach for bioremediation systems can be directed towards incorporating these aromatic pollutants into detoxified humic-like substances.
