Thermophilic mixed culture of bacteria utilizing methanol for growth.
A thermophilic mixed population of bacteria, capable of utilizing methanol as its sole carbon-energy source at temperatures up to 65 C, was selected by enrichment and studied. A maximal cellular yield of 0.42 g per g of methanol was observed at 50 to 56 C. The maximal specific growth rate of the mixed population in continuous culture at 56 C was greater than 0.32 per h. The amino acid profile o...
متن کاملPhospholipid and fatty acid composition of methanol-utilizing bacteria.
Differences in phospholipid and fatty acid composition were found among bacteria using the serine or the ribulose monophosphate pathway for the assimilation of C1 compounds. These differences might be used as an additional criterion for the classification of methanol-utilizing bacteria.
متن کاملProduction of pyrroloquinoline quinone by using methanol-utilizing bacteria.
A large number of methanol-utilizing bacteria were screened for extracellular production of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) by using methanol as the carbon and energy sources. Of the bacteria selected, Hyphomicrobium sp. strain TK 0441 was examined for PQQ production by using a jar fermentor. The amount of PQQ in the broth and the level of methanol dehydrogenase activity in the cells were increa...
متن کاملSimultaneous fermentation of cellulose and current production with an enriched mixed culture of thermophilic bacteria in a microbial electrolysis cell
An enriched mixed culture of thermophilic (60°C) bacteria was assembled for the purpose of using cellulose to produce current in thermophilic microbial electrolysis cells (MECs). Cellulose was fermented into sugars and acids before being consumed by anode-respiring bacteria (ARB) for current production. Current densities (j) were sustained at 6.5 ± 0.2 A m-2 in duplicate reactors with a coulomb...
متن کاملExtremely Thermophilic Marine Bacteria
A novel extremely thermophilic bacterium was isolated from a shallow marine hydrothermal vent environment (depth, 22 m) in Tachibana Bay, Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan. The cells of this organism were gramnegative rods. Growth occurred at temperatures between 50 and 85°C (optimum temperature, 80°C; doubling time at optimum temperature, 90 min), at pH 5.5 and 9.0 (optimum pH, 7.0), and in the prese...
