UNLABELLED Rhodopseudomonas palustris is an alphaproteobacterium that has served as a model organism for studies of photophosphorylation, regulation of nitrogen fixation, production of hydrogen as a biofuel, and anaerobic degradation of aromatic compounds. This bacterium is able to transition between anaerobic photoautotrophic growth, anaerobic photoheterotrophic growth, and aerobic heterotroph...

Polymicrobial infections can be more virulent than those involving single organisms (4, 29). Studies of the successful transmission of infections in animals that were given defined mixtures of aerobic and anaerobic organisms have been reported by many investigators (28, 38, 41). The key role of Bacteroides melaninogenicus was established by Rosebury et al. (38). However, none of the earlier stu...

Escherichia coli is a versatile organism that can grow at a wide range of oxygen levels; although heavily studied, no comprehensive knowledge of physiological changes at different oxygen levels is known. Transcriptomic studies have previously examined gene regulation in E. coli grown at different oxygen levels, and during transitions such as from an anaerobic to aerobic environment, but have te...

This paper reports the findings obtained using two new compounds belonging to the 5-nitroimidazole family: sulphuridazole (V1) and sulphonidazole (V2). We first assessed their antimicrobial activity on Clostridia spp. and then extended the study to Gram-positive and Gram-negative aerobic microorganisms and to Candida albicans. Their MICs were compared with those of metronidazole. The findings s...

  Background : Fourniers gangrene caused by synergic aerobic and anaerobic organism is a life threatening disorder.   Methods : The medical records of 8 among 839 patients admitted to imam ali general hospital Zahedan university of Medical Sciences with fourniers gangrene during the 10 months period between 2012 and 2013 were reviewed.   Results : The most common etiology a...

Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RubisCO) catalyzes the assimilation of atmospheric CO(2) into organic matter and is thus central to the existence of life on earth. The beginning of the 2000s was marked by the discovery of a new family of proteins, the RubisCO-like proteins (RLPs), which are structural homologs of RubisCO. RLPs are unable to catalyze CO(2) fixation. The RLPs fro...

In this article, based on well-known literary data, the motor asymmetry of a person in training process aerobic cyclic sports is considered. The authors have analyzed features manifestation and consequences formation asymmetry, assessed its impact performance. Motor has been found to be genetic characteristics organism, but lateral phenotype may change during multi-year under influence physical...

Phosphorus and carbon metabolism in Microlunatus phosphovorus was investigated by using a batch reactor to study the kinetics of uptake and release of extracellular compounds, in combination with (31)P and (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to characterize intracellular pools and to trace the fate of carbon substrates through the anaerobic and aerobic cycles. The organism was subjected to r...
