Abundance and diversity of microbial arsenic biotransformation genes in the sludge of full-scale anaerobic digesters from a municipal wastewater treatment plant [PDF]
Arsenic (As) is a potential contaminant in sewage sludge that may affect waste treatment and limit the use of these waste materials as soil amendments. Anaerobic digestion (AD) is an important and effective process for the treatment of sewage sludge and ...

Rumen methanogenic genotypes differ in abundance according to host residual feed intake phenotype and diet type [PDF]
Methane is an undesirable end product of rumen fermentative activity because of associated environmental impacts and reduced host feed efficiency. Our study characterized the rumen microbial methanogenic community in beef cattle divergently selected for ...

The capability of methanoarchaea to form methyl and hydride derivatives of metals and metalloids [PDF]
Formation of methyl and hydride metal(loid) compounds of the elements arsenic, selenium, antimony, tellurium and bismuth is widespread in the environment –especially under anaerobic conditions – and lead to a notable modulation of mobility and toxicity ...

Genome of Methanoregula Boonei 6A8 Reveals Adaptations To Oligotrophic Peatland Environments [PDF]
Analysis of the genome sequence of Methanoregula boonei strain 6A8, an acidophilic methanogen isolated from an ombrotrophic (rain-fed) peat bog, has revealed unique features that likely allow it to survive in acidic, nutrient-poor conditions.

Examining methanogens in northern peatlands: Potential role of ecological and latitudinal trends
Peatlands are a type of wetlands where accumulation of organic matter exceeds its decomposition. They are primarily distributed in northern latitudes and store more carbon than any other terrestrial ecosystem (~455 Pg). Methane (CH4) production is one of

Effect of Oxygen and Redox Potential on Glucose Fermentation in Thermotoga maritima under Controlled Physicochemical Conditions [PDF]
Batch cultures of Thermotoga maritima were performed in a bioreactor equipped with instruments adapted for experiments performed at 80 • C to mimic the fluctuating oxidative conditions in the hot ecosystems it inhabits.

THE PATHWAY FOR COENZYME M BIOSYNTHESIS IN BACTERIA [PDF]
Mercaptoethane sulfonate or coenzyme M (CoM) is the smallest known organic cofactor, and is most commonly associated with the methane forming step in all methanogenic archaea. It has also been found in a small number of bacteria capable of the metabolism
