Voltammetric measurement of microorganism populations
A voltammetric biosensor was developed for the assay of microorganism populations. A tetracycline-modified glassy carbon electrode was used in the construction of the biosensor and an electrochemical cell with an elastic base was employed in the measurement. The possible mechanism of the electrode response was discussed. The determination limit of the microbial populations was 2–5 × 104 cells w...
متن کاملA Malthusian curb on spatial structure in microorganism populations.
That all organisms are born in the company of a parent but die alone is a fundamental biological asymmetry. It has been suggested that this provides a deep-rooted source of spatial pattern formation for microorganisms even at the scale of the population. Such a theory, however, neglects the strong influence in nature of the limited and spatially variable availability of food. The tendency, firs...
متن کاملDynamics of microorganism populations in recirculating nutrient solutions.
This overview covers the basic microbial ecology of recirculating hydroponic solutions. Examples from NASA and Soviet CELSS tests and the commercial hydroponic industry will be used. The sources of microorganisms in nutrient solutions include air, water, seeds, plant containers and plumbing, biological vectors, and personnel. Microbial fates include growth, death, and emigration. Important micr...
متن کاملFate of heterotrophic microbes in pelagic habitats: focus on populations.
Major biogeochemical processes in the water columns of lakes and oceans are related to the activities of heterotrophic microbes, e.g., the mineralization of organic carbon from photosynthesis and allochthonous influx or its transport to the higher trophic levels. During the last 15 years, cultivation-independent molecular techniques have substantially contributed to our understanding of the div...
متن کاملFlower size variation in Rosmarinus officinalis: individuals, populations and habitats.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Flowers are relatively invariant organs within species, but quantitative variation often exists among conspecifics. These variations represent the raw material that natural selection can magnify, eventually resulting in morphological divergence and diversification. This paper investigates floral variability in Rosmarinus officinalis, a Mediterranean shrub. METHODS Nine pop...
