Obligate autotrophy at the thermodynamic limit of life in a new acetogenic bacterium
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 One of the important current issues of bioenergetics is the establishment of the thermodynamic limits of life. There is still no final understanding of what is the minimum value of the energy yield of a reaction that is sufficient to be used by an ...

A Third Way of Energy Conservation in Acetogenic Bacteria
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 Acetogenic bacteria are a group of strictly anaerobic bacteria that make a living from acetate formation from two molecules of CO2 via the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway (WLP).

Relating Anaerobic Digestion Microbial Community and Process Function [PDF]
, 2016 Anaerobic digestion (AD) involves a consortium of microorganisms that convert substrates into biogas containing methane for renewable energy. The technology has suffered from the perception of being periodically unstable due to limited understanding of ...

Effect of Humin and Chemical Factors on CO2-Fixing Acetogenesis and Methanogenesis
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2022 Acetogenesis and methanogenesis have attracted attention as CO2-fixing reactions. Humin, a humic substance insoluble at any pH, has been found to assist CO2-fixing acetogenesis as the sole electron donor.
