Environmental Biotechnology: Principles and Applications

TL;DR: This paper describes the development of biofilm Kinetics and its applications in water treatment, as well as some of the systems used for detoxification of Hazardous Chemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human gut microbiota in obesity and after gastric bypass

TL;DR: The coexistence of H2-producing bacteria with relatively high numbers of H1-utilizing methanogenic Archaea in the gastrointestinal tract of obese individuals leads to the hypothesis that interspecies H2 transfer between bacterial and archaeal species is an important mechanism for increasing energy uptake by the human large intestine in obese persons.
Journal ArticleDOI

A unified theory for extracellular polymeric substances, soluble microbial products, and active and inert biomass.

TL;DR: A unified theory shows that the apparently distinct products from the SMP and EPS schools overlap each other, and shows that Soluble EPS is actually SMP, or the sum of UAP and BAP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetic probes for analyzing abundance and spatial organization of nitrifying bacteria.

TL;DR: Volume 62, no. 6, p. 2157, Table 1: the sequence for probe Nso1225, 5(prm1)-CGCGATTGTATTACGTGTGTGA-3( prm1), should read 5(PRm1-CGCCATTGTattACGT GTGA- 3(prM1).
Journal ArticleDOI

Group-specific 16S rRNA hybridization probes to describe natural communities of methanogens

TL;DR: Eight oligonucleotides which are complementary to conserved tracts of 16S rRNA from phylogenetically defined groups of methanogens were designed and characterized for use as hybridization probes for studies in environmental and determinative microbiology.
