Quantification of microbial degradation activities in biological activated carbon filters by reverse stable isotope labelling

AMB Express, 2019
Biological activated carbon (BAC) filters are frequently used in drinking water production for removing dissolved organic carbon (DOC) via adsorption of organic compounds and microbial degradation. However, proper methods are still missing to distinguish

Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses of Desulfovibrio vulgaris biofilms: carbon and energy flow contribute to the distinct biofilm growth state. [PDF]

, 2012
BackgroundDesulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough is a sulfate-reducing bacterium (SRB) that is intensively studied in the context of metal corrosion and heavy-metal bioremediation, and SRB populations are commonly observed in pipe and subsurface ...

Candida albicans biofilm heterogeneity does not influence denture stomatitis but strongly influences denture cleansing capacity [PDF]

, 2017
Approximately 20  % of the UK population wear some form of denture prosthesis, resulting in denture stomatitis in half of these individuals. Candida albicans is primarily attributed as the causative agent, due to its biofilm -forming ability.

Culexarchaeia, a novel archaeal class of anaerobic generalists inhabiting geothermal environments

ISME Communications, 2022
Geothermal environments, including terrestrial hot springs and deep-sea hydrothermal sediments, often contain many poorly understood lineages of archaea.

Effect of temperature, pH and plasmids on in vitro biofilm formation in Escherichia coli [PDF]

, 2018
Acid resistance (AR) in Escherichia coli is an important trait that protects this microorganism from the deleterious effect of low-pH environments. Reports on biofilm formation in E.

Biofilm growth mode promotes maximum carrying capacity and community stability during product inhibition syntrophy

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) can interact syntrophically with other community members in the absence of sulfate, and interactions with hydrogen-consuming methanogens are beneficial when these archaea consume potentially inhibitory H2 produced by the ...

Diversity and function of methyl-coenzyme M reductase-encoding archaea in Yellowstone hot springs revealed by metagenomics and mesocosm experiments

ISME Communications, 2023
Metagenomic studies on geothermal environments have been central in recent discoveries on the diversity of archaeal methane and alkane metabolism. Here, we investigated methanogenic populations inhabiting terrestrial geothermal features in Yellowstone ...

A mesocosm experiment investigating the effects of substratum quality and wave exposure on the survival of fish eggs [PDF]

, 2010
In a mesocosm experiment, the attachment of bream (Abramis brama) eggs to spawning substrata with and without periphytic biofilm coverage and their subsequent survival with and without low-intensity wave exposure were investigated.

Extending an eco-evolutionary understanding of biofilm-formation at the air-liquid interface to community biofilms [PDF]

, 2020
Growing bacterial populations diversify to produce a number of competing lineages. In the Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 model system, Wrinkly Spreader mutant lineages, capable of colonising the air-liquid interface of static microcosms by biofilm ...
