Hydrogen, electric energy production, and metal toxic bioremediation are some of the biotechnological applications sulfate-reducing organisms, which potentially depend on sulfide produced. In this study, offshore Yucatan, capacity to produce hydrogen using microbial consortia from marine sediment (SC469, PD102, SD636) in batch reactors was evaluated. Kinetic tests were characterized by lactate ...

Recently, a bacteria-powered biobattery containing multiple species demonstrated long-lasting and fully self-sustainable power generation through their synergistic interaction. Confining individual in separate spaces avoids unbalanced competition between neighboring species, maximizing cooperative interaction to extend battery life. Despite the vast potential promise, however, spatially enginee...

Winemaking involves a wide diversity of microorganisms with different roles in the process. The wine microbial consortium (WMC) includes yeasts, lactic acid bacteria and acetic implications regarding quality. Despite this technological importance, their origin, prevalence, routes dissemination from environment into winery have not yet been fully unraveled. Therefore, study aimed to evaluate WMC...
