Microbial communities are indicators of parasite infection status
Environmental Microbiology, 2023 Abstract Growing evidence suggests that microbiomes have been shaping the evolutionary pathways of macroorganisms for millennia and that these tiny symbionts can influence, and possibly even control, species interactions like host–parasite relationships.

From microbial fuel cell (MFC) to microbial electrochemical snorkel (MES): maximizing chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal from wastewater [PDF]
, 2011 The paper introduces the concept of the microbial electrochemical snorkel (MES), a simplified design of a “short-circuited” microbial fuel cell (MFC). The MES cannot provide current but it is optimized for wastewater treatment.

Dynamics of microbial communities during decomposition of litter from pioneering plants in initial soil ecosystems [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 In initial ecosystems, concentrations of all macro- and micronutrients can be considered as extremely low. Plant litter therefore strongly influences the development of a degrader's food web and is an important source for C and N input into soil in such ...

Microbial Colonization of Minerals in Marine Sediments – Method Development and Ecological Significance [PDF]
, 2011 Interactions between microorganisms and minerals significantly impact microbial diversity and geochemical cycles in diverse settings. However, methodological difficulty has inhibited past study of microbe–mineral interactions in fine-grained subsurface ...

Relationships among Contrasting Measurements of Microbial Dynamics in Pasture and Organic Farm Soils
Applied and Environmental Soil Science, 2011 Soil bacteria exhibit short-term variations in community structure, providing an indication of anthropogenic disturbances. In this study, microbial biomass carbon (MBC), potentially mineralizable nitrogen (PMN), community level physiological profiling ...
