Reduction in Methane Emissions From Acidified Dairy Slurry Is Related to Inhibition of Methanosarcina Species

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Liquid dairy manure treated with sulfuric acid was stored in duplicate pilot-scale storage tanks for 120 days with continuous monitoring of CH4 emissions and concurrent examination of changes in the structure of bacterial and methanogenic communities ...

Anaerobic Digestion of Chicken Manure in the Presence of Magnetite, Granular Activated Carbon, and Biochar: Operation of Anaerobic Reactors and Microbial Community Structure

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
The influence of magnetite nanoparticles, granular activated carbon (GAC), and biochar, as well as their combinations on the anaerobic digestion of chicken manure and the structure of microbial communities was studied. The addition of magnetite, GAC, and

Nitrogenase in the archaebacterium Methanosarcina barkeri 227 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1990
The discovery of nitrogen fixation in the archaebacterium Methanosarcina barkeri 227 raises questions concerning the similarity of archaebacterial nitrogenases to Mo and alternative nitrogenases in eubacteria. A scheme for achieving a 20- to 40-fold partial purification of nitrogenase components from strain 227 was developed by using protamine sulfate ...

Intermittent fasting for microbes: how discontinuous feeding increases functional stability in anaerobic digestion

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2018
Background Demand-driven biogas production could play an important role for future sustainable energy supply. However, feeding a biogas reactor according to energy demand may lead to organic overloading and, thus, to process failures.

CRISPR/Cas12a toolbox for genome editing in Methanosarcina acetivorans

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Methanogenic archaea play an important role in the global carbon cycle and may serve as host organisms for the biotechnological production of fuels and chemicals from CO2 and other one-carbon substrates.

Ultrastructure of Methanosarcina mazei

open access: yesSystematic and Applied Microbiology, 1986
Summary Thin and semi-thin sections and freeze fracture replicas of unfixed, propane jet frozen cells of the methanogenic bacterium Methanosarcina mazei were examined in normal and medium-voltage (200 KV) transmission electron microscopes. A typical unit membrane surrounds the cytoplasm.

Identification of a novel archaea virus, detected in hydrocarbon polluted Hungarian and Canadian samples.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Metagenomics is a helpful tool for the analysis of unculturable organisms and viruses. Viruses that target bacteria and archaea play important roles in the microbial diversity of various ecosystems.

Conversion of Kepone byMethanosarcina thermophila [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1996
Acetate-grown cultures of Methanosarcina thermophila converted uniformly labeled [14C]Kepone to polar and nonpolar products with 86% of the Kepone degraded within the first 10 days. The titanium(III) citrate-reduced CO dehydrogenase enzyme complex isolated from M. thermophila also catalyzed the conversion of Kepone to polar and nonpolar products with a

Physiological Acclimation Extrapolates the Kinetics and Thermodynamics of Methanogenesis From Laboratory Experiments to Natural Environments

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Chemotrophic microorganisms face the steep challenge of limited energy resources in natural environments. This observation has important implications for interpreting and modeling the kinetics and thermodynamics of microbial reactions.

Microbial succession during thermophilic digestion: the potential of Methanosarcina sp.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
A distinct succession from a hydrolytic to a hydrogeno- and acetotrophic community was well documented by DGGE (denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis) and dHPLC (denaturing high performance liquid chromatography), and confirmed by qPCR (quantitative ...
