Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular analysis of ammonia‐oxidizing bacteria community in intermittent aeration sequencing batch reactors used for animal wastewater treatment
Kenichi Otawa,Ryoki Asano,Yasuhiko Ohba,Takako Sasaki,Eisuke Kawamura,Futoshi Koyama,Sakujiro Nakamura,Yutaka Nakai +7 more
TL;DR: Bacterial communities and betaproteobacterial ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) communities were evaluated seasonally in an intermittent-aeration sequencing batch process and in 12 other livestock wastewater treatment plants and dominance by one or two AOB phylotypes was commonly observed in all plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of the microbial community in a microbiological additive used in a manure composting process.
Shiho Wakase,Hiraku Sasaki,Kikuji Itoh,Kenichi Otawa,Osamu Kitazume,Jun Nonaka,Masaaki Satoh,Takako Sasaki,Yutaka Nakai +8 more
TL;DR: Results suggested that cultivable microorganisms in the MA did not become predominant in the composting process: however, some microorganisms that are detected from the MA itself by the DNA analysis may act effectively in the recycle process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characteristics of a novel type of bovine Cryptosporidium andersoni.
Masaaki Satoh,Kenji Hikosaka,Takako Sasaki,Yoshihisa Suyama,Tokuma Yanai,Minoru Ohta,Yutaka Nakai +6 more
TL;DR: Oocysts that resemble Cryptosporidium andersoni are isolated from cattle grazing on a farm in Japan and since the isolate was able to infect SCID mice, the isolate appears to be a novel type of C. andERSONi.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of Cryptosporidium muris type oocysts from beef cattle in a farm and from domestic and wild animals in and around the farm.
TL;DR: Gene analysis suggested that the oocysts were different from the C. muris type bovine isolate, which was found in 348 beef and dairy cattle and 500 pigs in and around the farm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular characterization of Cryptosporidium spp. in grazing beef cattle in Japan.
Fumi Murakoshi,Lihua Xiao,Ryuma Matsubara,Rintaro Sato,Yuuki Kato,Takako Sasaki,Yasuhiro Fukuda,Chika Tada,Yutaka Nakai +8 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that C. bovis and C. ryanae are distributed in Japan, but might have low level of detection in grazing beef cattle, and calve-to-calve infection might be the major route of cryptosporidiosis transmission in beef cattle.
