Role of Aerobic Microbial Populations in Cellulose Digestion by Desert Millipedes

Minireview Cellulose Digestion in Insects

I. Cellulose digestion hns been demonstrated in the Thysanura (Lepismatidae), Orthoptera (Cryptocercidae, Blattidae). Isoptera (Mastotermitidae. Kalotermitidae. Hodotermitidae, Rhinotermitdae. Termitidae). Coleoptera (Buprestidae. Anobiidae. Scarabaeidae, Cerambycidae), and Hymenoptera (Siricidne). 2. In all but the scarab beetles. cellulose digestion is brought about by a complex of three type...

Evaluating digestion efficiency in full-scale anaerobic digesters by identifying active microbial populations through the lens of microbial activity

Anaerobic digestion is a common technology to biologically stabilize wasted solids produced in municipal wastewater treatment. Its efficiency is usually evaluated by calculating the reduction in volatile solids, which assumes no biomass growth associated with digestion. To determine whether this assumption is valid and further evaluate digestion efficiency, this study sampled 35 digester sludge...

The digestion of cellulose by sheep; the extent of cellulose digestion at successive levels of the alimentary tract.

role of cultural iran in promotion of multilaieralism in central asia and caucasus

cultural iran is a scope that is more extended than the political territories of iran as a political unit. this concept means that cultural geography(mehdi moghanlo-1383-1) of iran is greater than its political geography which, according to history, has a long history extending west-east from kandahar to the euphrates and north-south from the persian gulf to the caucasus including transoxiana a...

Cellulose Digestion and Metabolism Induced Biocatalytic Transitions in Anaerobic Microbial Ecosystems

Anaerobic digestion of highly polymerized biomass by microbial communities present in diverse microbial ecosystems is an indispensable metabolic process for biogeochemical cycling in nature and for industrial activities required to maintain a sustainable society. Therefore, the evaluation of the complicated microbial metabolomics presents a significant challenge. We here describe a comprehensiv...
