Use of Desulfovibrio and Escherichia coli Pd-nanocatalysts in reduction of Cr(VI) and hydrogenolytic dehalogenation of polychlorinated biphenyls and used transformer oil [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND Desulfovibrio spp. biofabricate metallic nanoparticles (e.g. ‘Bio-Pd’) which catalyse the reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) and dehalogenate polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Desulfovibrio spp.

Functional genomics with a comprehensive library of transposon mutants for the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio alaskensis G20. [PDF]
, 2014 UnlabelledThe genomes of sulfate-reducing bacteria remain poorly characterized, largely due to a paucity of experimental data and genetic tools. To meet this challenge, we generated an archived library of 15,477 mapped transposon insertion mutants in the

Plasmid transfer by conjugation in Desulfovibrio desulfuricans [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1992 Conjugational transfer of several IncQ plasmids from Escherichia coli to the strictly anaerobic, sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio desulfuricans strain G100A was demonstrated. Plasmid DNA from exconjugants was visualized on agarose gels and was used to transform E. coli to the appropriate antibiotic resistances. Neither transfer of IncW and IncP

Bacterial Communities as Modulators of Innate Immune Signalling: An In Vitro Perspective on Toll-Like Receptor Activation. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepBacterial contaminants in occupational environments may elicit an immune response. This study investigated the immune‐modulatory potential of bacterial communities using in vitro cell‐based assays and revealed distinctive bacterial species as drivers of TLR2 and TLR4 activation. The presented approach studied the role of bacterial species as modulators
