Journal ArticleDOI
(Per)chlorate reduction by an acetogenic bacterium, Sporomusa sp., isolated from an underground gas storage
Melike Balk,Farrakh Mehboob,Antonie H. van Gelder,W. Irene C. Rijpstra,Jaap S. Sinninghe Damsté,Alfons J. M. Stams +5 more
TL;DR: A mesophilic bacterium, strain An4, was isolated from an underground gas storage reservoir with methanol as substrate and perchlorate as electron acceptor and was most closely related to Sporomusa ovata.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of sulphate on methanol conversion in mesophilic upflow anaerobic sludge bed reactors
TL;DR: In this paper, upflow anaerobic sludge bed reactors were fed with an influent containing sulphate (2 g l-1) and methanol (1.33 g l -1).
Journal ArticleDOI
Microaerobic and anaerobic metabolism of a Methylocystis parvus strain isolated from a denitrifying bioreactor
TL;DR: The isolated obligate methanotrophic bacterium, strain MTS, clearly shows a fermentative metabolism of PHB under anaerobic conditions, and may serve as substrates for denitrifying bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genomic, proteomic and biochemical analysis of the organohalide respiratory pathway in Desulfitobacterium dehalogenans
Thomas Kruse,Bram A. van de Pas,Ariane Atteia,Ariane Atteia,Klaas Krab,Wilfred R. Hagen,Lynne Goodwin,Lynne Goodwin,Patrick S. G. Chain,Sjef Boeren,Farai Maphosa,Gosse Schraa,Willem M. de Vos,John van der Oost,Hauke Smidt,Alfons J. M. Stams +15 more
TL;DR: Genome analysis revealed genes that likely encode the identified components of the electron transport chain from formate to fumarate or Cl-OHPA, indicating involvement in organohalide respiration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acidophilic degradation of methanol by a methanogenic enrichment culture.
Lourdinha Florencio,Alla N. Nozhevnikova,A. van Langerak,Alfons J. M. Stams,Jim A. Field,Gatze Lettinga +5 more
TL;DR: An acidophilic methanogenic enrichment culture was obtained in a continuous up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor operated at pH 4.2 with methanol as the sole carbon source and the dominant meethanogenic species was a Methanosarcina.
