چکیده

Postgate, John R. (University of Illinois, Urbana) and L. Leon Campbell. Identification of Coleman's sulfate-reducing bacterium as a mesophilic relative of Clostridium nigrificans. J. Bacteriol. 86:274-279. 1963.-Coleman's sulfate-reducing bacterium is immunologically and morphologically similar to Clostridium nigrificans and unlike Desulfovibrio species. It is not thermophilic and does not acquire the thermophilic habit; it is thus the first naturally occurring mesophilic member of this group to be described.

Deoxyribonucleic Acid Base Composition of Desulfotomaculum nigrificans.

The sporeforming, dissimilatory sulfate-reducing bacteria have been reclassified by L. L. Campbell and J. R. Postgate (Bacteriol. Rev. 29:359, 1965) and placed in a new genus: Desuljbtomaculum. The thermophilic sulfate-reducing bacterium, Desulfotomaculum nigrificans (Clostridium nigrificans) was designated as the type species. In a previous study of 30 strains of nonsporulating sulfate-reducin...

Bacteriol. 88:440-443. 1964.-The hydrogenase of the Coleman organism was found to be associated with the particulate fraction of cell-free extracts. This enzyme catalyzed the oxidation of molecular hydrogen in the presence of various electron acceptors. It was also able to ev...

Studies on thermophilic sulfate reducing bacteria. I. Identification of Sporovibrio desulfuricans as Clostridium nigrificans.

Elion (1924) was the first to isolate a thermophilic sulfate reducing bacterium in pure culture. He named the organism Vibrio thermodesulfuricans, and reported that it was capable of sulfate reduction betveen 30 and 65 C, wvith an optimum of 55 C. Baars (1930) and Kluyver and Baars (1932) reisolated V. thermodesulfuricans, and carried out a comparative study of this organism and Vibrio desulfur...

Rice husk filtrate as a nutrient medium for the growth of Desulfotomaculum nigrificans: characterisation and sulfate reduction studies.

The filtrate obtained by interacting a known amount of rice husk with deionised, Milli-Q water was assessed as a carbon source and nutrient medium for the growth of Desulfotomaculum nigrificans, a typical sulfate-reducing bacterium. The filtrate contained essential growth constituents such as magnesium, potassium, phosphorous apart from calcium, sodium, chloride and sulfate ions. Based on the 1...

Complete Genome Sequence of the Piezophilic, Mesophilic, Sulfate-Reducing Bacterium Desulfovibrio hydrothermalis AM13T

Desulfovibrio hydrothermalis AM13T is a piezophilic, mesophilic, hydrogenotrophic sulfate-reducing bacterium collected from a deep-sea hydrothermal chimney on the East Pacific Rise (2,600 m depth, 13°N). We report the genome sequence of this bacterium, which includes a 3,702,934-bp chromosome and a circular plasmid of 5,328 bp.
