Heat-tolerant methanotrophic bacteria from the hot water effluent of a natural gas field

Bacteriophages of methanotrophic bacteria.

Bacteriophages of methanotrophic bacteria have been found in 16 out of 88 studied samples (underground waters, pond water, soil, gas and oil installation waters, fermentor cultural fluids, bacterial paste, and rumen of cattle) taken in different geographic zones of the Soviet Union. Altogether, 23 phage strains were isolated: 10 strains that specifically lysed only Methylosinus sporium strains,...

Feasibility Study of Liquefied Natural Gas Project for the "South-Pars" Gas Field of Iran

from linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar

chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...

Extremely thermophilic gram-negative bacteria from hot tap water.

Two strains of heterotrophic, non-motile, Gram-negative extreme thermophiles have been isolated from hot tap water. These strains (NH and DI) have been characterized and compared with strains of genus Thermus. Few of the single organic compounds tested supported growth in the presence of ammonium salts, and, like Thermus strains, growth on undefined media was restricted to dilute tryptone-yeast...

Investigation on the capability of Silkworm Pupa as a Natural Adsorbent for Removal of Dyes from Textile Effluent

Recently, use of naturally-occurring low-cost and harmless material for removal of trace contaminants from colored wastewater has attracted extensive attention. In this study, silkworm pupa has been used as a basic dye adsorbent. Adsorption capacity and isotherms have been assessed. Results show that adsorption isotherms can be expressed well by Langmuir equation. The effects of parameters such...
