Quantifying microbial utilization of petroleum hydrocarbons in salt-marsh sediments using the ^(13)C content of bacterial rRNA [PDF]
, 2007 Natural remediation of oil spills is catalyzed by complex microbial consortia. Here we take a whole-community approach to investigate bacterial incorporation of petroleum hydrocarbons from a simulated oil spill.

An overview on the interplay between nutraceuticals and gut microbiota [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background Nowadays, growing attention was being given to the alternative ways to prevent or treat diseases. Nutraceuticals are used increasingly for this purpose. Many of these are being used as alternative therapy. Classic therapy with synthetic drugs,

Diverse mechanisms regulate sporulation sigma factor activity in the Firmicutes [PDF]
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2015 Sporulation allows bacteria to survive adverse conditions and is essential to the lifecycle of some obligate anaerobes. In Bacillus subtilis, the sporulation-specific sigma factors, σ(F), σ(E), σ(G), and σ(K), activate compartment-specific transcriptional programs that drive sporulation through its morphological stages.

A Molecular Biology Tool Kit for the Phototrophic Firmicute Heliobacterium modesticaldum [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2019 Heliobacteria are anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria with the simplest known photosynthetic apparatus. They are unique in using bacteriochlorophyllgas their main pigment and lacking a peripheral antenna system. Until now, research on this organism has been hampered by the lack of a genetic transformation system.
