چکیده

BKAGG, P. D., and D. J. RAINNIE. 1974. The effect of silver ions on the respiratory chain of Esclrerichia coli. Can. J. Microbiol. 20: 883-889. Silver ions inhibited the oxidation of glucose, glycerol, fumarate, succinate, Dand L-lactate, and endogenous substrates by intact cell suspensions of Esclrerichia coli. Silver ions reacted with the respiratory chain at two levels. The site nlost sensitive to inhibition was located between the 6-cytochromes and cytochrome 0,. The second level of inhibition was in the NADH and succinate dehydrogenase regions of the respiratory chain, and was situated on thc substrate side of the flavin components.

Removal of nickel and total chromium using Escherichia coli biofilm supported on clinoptilolite

-Biofilm is communities of microorganisms attached to the surface and is able to concentrate metal species within their cell structure. Therefore, the aim of this study was to produce Escherichia coli biofilm on zeolite (clinoptilolite) and evaluate its ability for nickel (Ni) and chromium (Cr) adsorption from aqueous solutions. A laboratory-scale batch model was used for biodsorption assay. Th...
