Aerobic Heterotrophic Bacterial Populations of Sewage and Activated Sludge: III. Adaptation in a Synthetic Waste.
The nature and behavior of the microbial population developed on a synthetic waste containing salts and sorbitol are compared to that of a treatment-plant activated sludge. The population of the adapted sludge developed on the synthetic waste consisted approximately of only six kinds of bacteria. Experiments with radioactive sorbitol indicate that the microbial population developed on the synth...
متن کاملAerobic nitrification and denitrification among heterotrophic bacterial isolates
In addition to being an integral part of the planet’s nitrogen cycle, bacterially facilitated nitrification is a process of great commercial importance in the wastewater treatment, aquaculture and agronomy industries. Twelve distinct species of heterotrophic bacteria, belonging to the genera Bacillus, Pediococcus and Lactobacillus, were isolated from BiOWiSH’s commercially available water treat...
متن کاملPhylogenetic diversity and activity of aerobic heterotrophic bacteria from a hypersaline oil-polluted microbial mat.
The diversity and function of aerobic heterotrophic bacteria (AHB) in cyanobacterial mats have been largely overlooked. We used culture-dependent and molecular techniques to explore the species diversity, degradative capacities and functional guilds of AHB in the photic layer (2mm) of an oil-polluted microbial mat from Saudi Arabia. Enrichment isolation was carried out at different salinities (...
متن کاملThe diversity of a distributed genome in bacterial populations
The distributed genome hypothesis states that the set of genes in a population of bacteria is distributed over all individuals that belong to the specific taxon. It implies that certain genes can be gained and lost from generation to generation. We use the random genealogy given by a Kingman coalescent in order to superimpose events of gene gain and loss along ancestral lines. Gene gains occur ...
متن کاملComparative study of normal and sensitive skin aerobic bacterial populations
The purpose of this study was to investigate if the sensitive skin syndrome, a frequent skin disorder characterized by abnormal painful reactions to environmental factors in the absence of visible inflammatory response, could be linked to a modification in the skin bacterial population. A total of 1706 bacterial isolates was collected at the levels of the forehead, cheekbone, inner elbow, and l...
