Removal Methods of Antibiotic Compounds from Aqueous Environments– A Review
Introduction: Antibiotics as a type of pharmaceutical compounds are widely used in modern medicine and veterinary industries. They enter the environment in different ways, including agricultural runoff, direct discharge of urban wastewater treatment or human waste, direct disposal of medical, veterinary industrial waste and to name but a few. Antibiotics have been able to influence the microbia...
متن کاملViruses from extreme thermal environments.
Viruses of extreme thermophiles are of great interest because they serve as model systems for understanding the biochemistry and molecular biology required for life at high temperatures. In this work, we report the discovery, isolation, and preliminary characterization of viruses and virus-like particles from extreme thermal acidic environments (70-92 degrees C, pH 1.0-4.5) found in Yellowstone...
متن کاملMagnetotactic Bacteria from Extreme Environments
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) represent a diverse collection of motile prokaryotes that biomineralize intracellular, membrane-bounded, tens-of-nanometer-sized crystals of a magnetic mineral called magnetosomes. Magnetosome minerals consist of either magnetite (Fe3O4) or greigite (Fe3S4) and cause cells to align along the Earth's geomagnetic field lines as they swim, a trait called magnetotaxis. ...
متن کاملEditorial: Enzymes from Extreme Environments
Enzymes are nature's biocatalysts and are equipped with high catalytic activity and remarkable substrate specificity. Enzymes catalyze the metabolic reactions necessary for all of life's processes and are able to catalyze reactions at much higher rates than would be possible without their action. The majority of enzymes are optimized to perform under physiological conditions or conditions consi...
متن کاملExtreme catalysts from low-temperature environments.
Cold-loving or psychrophilic organisms are widely distributed in nature as a large part of the earth's surface is at temperatures around 0 degrees C. To maintain metabolic rates and to prosper in cold environments, these extremophilic organisms have developed a vast array of adaptations. One main adaptive strategy developed in order to cope with the reduction of chemical reaction rates induced ...
