Journal ArticleDOI
Missing lithotroph identified as new planctomycete
Marc Strous,John A. Fuerst,Evelien H. M. Kramer,Susanne Logemann,Gerard Muyzer,Katinka T. van de Pas-Schoonen,Richard I. Webb,J. Gijs Kuenen,Mike S. M. Jetten +8 more
TL;DR: The discovery of this missing lithotroph and its identification as a new, autotrophic member of the order Planctomycetales, one of the major distinct divisions of the Bacteria makes an important contribution to the problem of unculturability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbiology and application of the anaerobic ammonium oxidation ('anammox') process.
Mike S. M. Jetten,Mike S. M. Jetten,Michael Wagner,John A. Fuerst,Mark C.M. van Loosdrecht,Gijs J. Kuenen,Marc Strous,Marc Strous +7 more
TL;DR: Electron microscopy of the ultrastructure of B. anammoxidans has shown that several membrane-bounded compartments are present inside the cytoplasm, and Hydroxylamine oxidoreductase, a keyAnammox enzyme, is found exclusively inside one of these compartments, tentatively named the 'anammoxosome'.
Journal ArticleDOI
Candidatus "Scalindua brodae", sp. nov., Candidatus "Scalindua wagneri", sp. nov., two new species of anaerobic ammonium oxidizing bacteria.
Markus Schmid,Kerry A. Walsh,Richard I. Webb,W. Irene C. Rijpstra,Katinka T. van de Pas-Schoonen,Mark Jan Verbruggen,Thomas C. J. Hill,Bruce F. Moffett,John A. Fuerst,Stefan Schouten,Jaap S. Sinninghe Damsté,James A. Harris,Phil J Shaw,Mike S. M. Jetten,Marc Strous +14 more
TL;DR: A new genus and species of anaerobic ammonium oxidizing planctomycetes, discovered in a wastewater treatment plant treating landfill leachate in Pitsea, UK, are described, making this genus the most widespread of all anammox bacteria described so far.
Journal ArticleDOI
Candidatus "Anammoxoglobus propionicus" a new propionate oxidizing species of anaerobic ammonium oxidizing bacteria
Boran Kartal,Jayne E. Rattray,Laura van Niftrik,Laura van Niftrik,Jack van de Vossenberg,Markus Schmid,Richard I. Webb,Stefan Schouten,John A. Fuerst,Jaap S. Sinninghe Damsté,Mike S. M. Jetten,Mike S. M. Jetten,Marc Strous +12 more
TL;DR: A new anaerobic ammonium oxidizing bacterium with a defined niche: the co-oxidation of propionate and ammonium in the presence of ammonium, nitrite and nitrate is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
New concepts of microbial treatment processes for the nitrogen removal in wastewater
Ingo Schmidt,Olav Sliekers,Markus Schmid,Eberhard Bock,John A. Fuerst,J. Gijs Kuenen,Mike S. M. Jetten,Marc Strous +7 more
TL;DR: These processes target the removal of ammonia from gases, and ammonium-bicarbonate from concentrated wastewaters (i.e. sludge liquor and landfill leachate) and the microbiology, its consequences for their application, the current status regarding application, and the future developments are addressed.
