Enrichment of Thermophilic Propionate-Oxidizing Bacteria in Syntrophy with Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum or Methanobacterium thermoformicicum.
Thermophilic propionate-oxidizing, proton-reducing bacteria were enriched from the granular methanogenic sludge of a bench-scale upflow anaerobic sludge bed reactor operated at 55 degrees C with a mixture of volatile fatty acids as feed. Thermophilic hydrogenotrophic methanogens had a high decay rate. Therefore, stable, thermophilic propionate-oxidizing cultures could not be obtained by using t...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of an acidic, thermophilic phytase from a newly isolated Geobacillus stearothermophilus strain DM12
Microbial phytases were applied mainly to animal and human foodstuffs in order to improvemineral bioavailability and food processing. In addition, phytases have potentialbiotechnological application in various other fields, such as environmental protection,aquaculture and agriculture. Bacillus sp. DM12, an isolate from a hot spring, produces phytase,which catalyzes the hydrolysis of phytic acid...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of a Thermophilic Hydrogenotrophic Methanogen, Methanothermobacter sp. Strain CaT2
We isolated a thermophilic hydrogenotrophic methanogen, Methanothermobacter sp. strain CaT2, which is able to aggregate and utilize formate. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of this organism.
متن کاملBiodesulfurization of Dibenzothiophene by a Newly Isolated Thermophilic Bacteria Strain
Microbiological analyses of soil chronically exposed to petroleum complex compounds of some oil springs in south of Iran resulted in isolation and purification of a new native thermophilic strain which is capable to desulfurize petroleum sulfur compounds by 4-S mechanism. Dibenzothiophene (DBT) was selected as a complex sulfur compound model and many experiments were done to identify the me...
متن کاملKinetics of Formate Metabolism in Methanobacterium formicicum and Methanospirillum hungatei.
The kinetics of formate metabolism in Methanobacterium formicicum and Methanospirillum hungatei were studied with log-phase formate-grown cultures. The progress of formate degradation was followed by the formyltetrahydrofolate synthetase assay for formate and fitted to the integrated form of the Michaelis-Menten equation. The K(m) and V(max) values for Methanobacterium formicicum were 0.58 mM f...
