Identification and Correlation Analysis of Key Clostridia and LAB Species in Alfalfa Silages Prepared with Different Cultivars and Additives

Agriculture
Clostridial fermentation is the determining process causing the spoilage of direct-cut alfalfa silage, and the application of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) inoculant is considered as the most promising technology for inhibiting clostridial fermentation.

Uranium Reduction by Clostridia [PDF]

, 2006
The FRC groundwater and sediment contain significant concentrations of U and Tc and are dominated by low pH, and high nitrate and Al concentrations where dissimilatory metal reducing bacterial activity may be limited. The presence of Clostridia in Area 3

A minimal cellulosome‐like system in Cellulosilyticum lentocellum

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cellulose‐degrading bacteria typically use cellulosomes, large multi‐enzyme complexes on a scaffold protein. In Cellulosilyticum lentocellum, we characterise a far smaller arrangement, a single scaffold bound to one cellulase through a single cohesin‐dockerin interaction.

Genetically Programmed Shape‐Morphing of Engineered Living Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, bacterial and mammalian engineered living materials (ELMs) are presented, in which living cells direct genetically programmed and enzymatically mediated shape‐morphing. The resulting deformation and shape‐recovery can be actuated in a genetically controlled manner by an ELM incorporating out‐of‐equilibrium counteracting biochemical reactions with

Desk studies on feasibility of horizontal standard rapid methods for detection of Clostridium perfringens and enterococci in sludges, soil, soil improvers, growing media and biowastes

, 2004
The existing methods currently available for the detection and enumeration of clostridia and enterococci in sludges and treated biowastes have been evaluated with a view to possible standardisation. The main methods used for the detection and enumeration

Detection of several clostridia by a direct fluorescent antibody test in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues Detecção de clostrídios pela técnica de imunofluorescência direta em tecidos fixados em formol e incluídos em parafina

Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2007
Descreve-se a aplicabilidade de uma técnica de imunofluorescência direta, para o diagnóstico de mionecroses causadas por clostrídios, a partir de tecidos fixados em formol e incluídos em parafina.

Clostridium autoethanogenum isopropanol production via native plasmid pCA replicon

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Clostridium autoethanogenum is a model gas-fermenting acetogen for commercial ethanol production. It is also a platform organism being developed for the carbon-negative production of acetone and isopropanol by gas fermentation. We have assembled a 5.5 kb

Dynamic Observation of Lacy Pattern Formation in a Bone Tissue Model Using Liquid Phase Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, we establish a low‐dose liquid‐phase electron microscopy workflow for real‐time observation of biological processes in hydrated conditions. Beam damage is reduced by imaging only 20% of the pixels and reconstructing the complete image using an inpainting algorithm.

A Targetron-Recombinase System for Large-Scale Genome Engineering of Clostridia

mSphere, 2019
Clostridia are a group of Gram-positive anaerobic bacteria of medical and industrial importance for which limited genetic methods are available. Here, we demonstrate an approach to make large genomic deletions and insertions in the model Clostridium ...

Characterization of Exosporium Layer Variability of Clostridioides difficile Spores in the Epidemically Relevant Strain R20291

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Clostridioides difficile is a Gram-positive anaerobic intestinal pathogenic bacterium and the causative agent of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. C. difficile spore is a dormant state which acts as a vehicle of transmission and infection. In C.
