TLDR
The effect of pH on the conversion of glucose to hydrogen by a mixed culture of fermentative bacteria was evaluated and the diversity of microbial communities increased with pH, based on 16S rDNA analysis by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE).

Production of bioenergy and biochemicals from industrial and agricultural wastewater.

TL;DR: There are several biological processing strategies that produce bioenergy or biochemicals while treating industrial and agricultural wastewater, including methanogenic anaerobic digestion, biological hydrogen production, microbial fuel cells and fermentation for production of valuable products, but there are also scientific and technical barriers to the implementation of these strategies.

Characterization of microbial diversity by determining terminal restriction fragment length polymorphisms of genes encoding 16S rRNA.

TL;DR: Computer-simulated analysis of terminal restriction fragment length polymorphisms (T-RFLP) for 1,002 eubacterial sequences showed that with proper selection of PCR primers and restriction enzymes, 686 sequences could be PCR amplified and classified into 233 unique terminal restriction fragments lengths or "ribotypes."

Phylogenetic relationships of Thiomicrospira species and their identification in deep-sea hydrothermal vent samples by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis of 16S rDNA fragments

TL;DR: DGGE analysis of PCR-amplified 16S rDNA fragments was used to explore the genetic diversity of hydrothermal vent microbial communities, specifically to determine the importance of sulfur-oxidizing bacteria therein, and identified three ‘phylotypes’ which represented a newThiomicrospira species, phylogenetically in an intermediate position between Tms.

Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis profiles of 16S rRNA-defined populations inhabiting a hot spring microbial mat community.

TL;DR: DGGE of PCR-amplified 16S rRNA gene segments was used to profile microbial populations inhabiting different temperature regions in the microbial mat community of Octopus Spring, Yellowstone National Park, to suggest that adaptation to temperature has occurred among cyanobacteria which are phylogenetically very similar.

Feasibility of biological hydrogen production from organic fraction of municipal solid waste

TL;DR: In this article, a simple model developed from the Gompertz equation was used to estimate the hydrogen production potential and rate from organic municipal solid waste (OFMSW) and two seed microorganisms, namely heat-pretreated digested sludge and hydrogen-producing bacteria enriched from soybean-meal silo.
