Reduction of Fe(III) colloids by Shewanella putrefaciens: A kinetic model
A kinetic model for the microbial reduction of Fe(III) oxyhydroxide colloids in the presence of excess electron donor is presented. The model assumes a two-step mechanism: (1) attachment of Fe(III) colloids to the cell surface and (2) reduction of Fe(III) centers at the surface of attached colloids. The validity of the model is tested using Shewanella putrefaciens and nanohematite as model diss...
متن کاملShewanella putrefaciens
The major soluble cytochrome isolated from microaerobically grown cells of Shewanella putrefaciens has been shown to be a novel type of flavocytochrome with fumarate reductase activity. This flavocytochrome, located in the periplasmic fraction of cell extracts, has been purified to homogeneity and shown to contain 4 mol of haem c and 1 mol of non-covalently bound FAD per mol of protein. An Mr v...
متن کاملRegulation of Dissimilatory Fe(III) Reduction Activity in Shewanella putrefaciens.
Under anaerobic conditions, Shewanella putrefaciens is capable of respiratory-chain-linked, high-rate dissimilatory iron reduction via both a constitutive and inducible Fe(III)-reducing system. In the presence of low levels of dissolved oxygen, however, iron reduction by this microorganism is extremely slow. Fe(II)-trapping experiments in which Fe(III) and O(2) were presented simultaneously to ...
متن کاملShewanella putrefaciens infective endocarditis.
Shewanella putrefaciens rarely causes infection in humans. In the last few decades a growing number of cases have been described. The following report outlines the case of a 40-year-old immunocompetent white man with S. putrefaciens infective endocarditis. This is the first known case of infective endocarditis due to an apparently monomicrobial S. putrefaciens infection, and the second known ca...
متن کاملA Rare Case of Pneumonia Caused by Shewanella putrefaciens
Shewanella putrefaciens is a gram-negative, nonfermentative, oxidase positive, motile bacillus that produces hydrogen sulphide. It is found widely in the nature especially in marine environments. In some very rare cases Shewanella putrefaciens can be a human pathogen. It can produce a wide variety of clinical syndromes including bacteremia as well as skin and soft tissue infections. However, pn...
