Interactions in syntrophic associations of endospore-forming, butyrate-degrading bacteria and h(2)-consuming bacteria.
Butyrate is an important intermediate in the anaerobic degradation of organic matter. In sulfate-depleted environments butyrate is oxidized to acetate and hydrogen by obligate proton reducers, in syntrophic association with hydrogen-consuming methanogens. This paper describes two enrichments of endospore-forming bacteria degrading butyrate in consortia with methanogens. The isolates are readily...
متن کاملMonitoring endospores and endospore - forming bacteria populations in commercial skim milk powder pro
The microflora of milk powder consists of a wide array of microorgan isms of which special attention is given to Bacillus endospores. Bacillus endospores survive pasteurization and spray drying and inhabit the final powder product in the dormant state indefinitely. Once the powder is re constituted, endospores may germinate, and through their enzymatic ac tivity become detrimental to quality...
متن کاملDiscrimination of aerobic endospore-forming bacteria via electrospray-lonization mass spectrometry of whole cell suspensions.
Direct injection electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) without prior analyte separation was investigated for the analysis of whole cell suspensions of bacteria. Thirty-six strains of aerobic endospore-forming bacteria, consisting of six Bacillus species and one Brevibacillus species, were studied
متن کاملGene conservation among endospore-forming bacteria reveals additional sporulation genes in Bacillus subtilis.
The capacity to form endospores is unique to certain members of the low-G+C group of Gram-positive bacteria (Firmicutes) and requires signature sporulation genes that are highly conserved across members of distantly related genera, such as Clostridium and Bacillus. Using gene conservation among endospore-forming bacteria, we identified eight previously uncharacterized genes that are enriched am...
متن کاملBacillus methanolicus sp. nov., a new species of thermotolerant, methanol-utilizing, endospore-forming bacteria.
The generic position of 14 strains of gram-positive bacteria able to use methanol as a growth substrate was determined. All are obligately aerobic, thermotolerant organisms that are able to grow at temperatures of 35 to 60 degrees C. Nine of the strains produce oval spores at a subterminal-to-central position in slightly swollen rod-shaped cells. DNA-DNA hybridization studies, 5S rRNA sequence ...
