Hydrogen-utilizing, sulfate-reducing bacteria in marine sediments.

Modeling reduction of uranium U(VI) under variable sulfate concentrations by sulfate-reducing bacteria.

The kinetics for the reduction of sulfate alone and for concurrent uranium [U(VI)] and sulfate reduction, by mixed and pure cultures of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) at 21 +/- 3 degrees C were studied. The mixed culture contained the SRB Desulfovibrio vulgaris along with a Clostridium sp. determined via 16S ribosomal DNA analysis. The pure culture was Desulfovibrio desulfuricans (ATCC 7757). ...

Sulfate Reduction and Growth Kinetics of Sulfate Reducing Bacteria While Using Marine Waste Extract as Nitrogen Source

Sulfate reduction and SRB growth kinetics were studied in growth media for SRB (Dev et al., 2014), MSRB containing marine waste extract as nitrogen source with increasing SO4 concentration, such as 1500, 3500, 5500 and 7500 mg L. With increase in SO4 concentration, SO4 reduction rate, its efficiency, SRB specific growth rate, HS generation rate were deteriorated. In the presence of 1500 mg L SO...

Anaerobic degradation of naphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene by strains of marine sulfate-reducing bacteria.

The anaerobic biodegradation of naphthalene, an aromatic hydrocarbon in tar and petroleum, has been repeatedly observed in environments but scarcely in pure cultures. To further explore the relationships and physiology of anaerobic naphthalene-degrading microorganisms, sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) were enriched from a Mediterranean sediment with added naphthalene. Two strains (NaphS3, NaphS6...
