Microbial physiology and interactions in anammox systems with the intermittent addition of organic carbons.

Bioresource Technology, 2020
Organic carbon can affect nitrogen removal in the anaerobic ammonia oxidation (anammox) process. Two continuous up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactors were operated under autotrophic (UASBN, without organic carbon) and mixotrophic (UASBCN, with

Effects of salinity on anaerobic digestion: Performance, microbial physiology, and community dynamics.

Bioresource Technology
Anaerobic digestion (AD) is widely applied to treatment and energy recovery from organic wastewater/wastes, while the efficiency of AD can be limited by salinity stress. This paper reviews the effects of salinity on AD.

Large‐scale importance of microbial carbon use efficiency and necromass to soil organic carbon

Global Change Biology, 2021
Optimal methods for incorporating soil microbial mechanisms of carbon (C) cycling into Earth system models (ESMs) are still under debate. Specifically, whether soil microbial physiology parameters and residual materials are important to soil organic C ...

Physiology of Immobilised Microbial Cells

2004
The widespread development and application of gel immobilised cell technology has significantly increased the interest in the physiology of immobilised cells. A number of reports have appeared suggesting that the immobilisation has a profound effect on the metabolic behaviour of immobilised cells compared to free cells.

Microbial physiological engineering increases the efficiency of microbial cell factories

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 2021
Microbial cell factories provide vital platforms for the production of chemicals. Advanced biotechnological toolboxes have been developed to enhance their efficiency. However, these tools have limitations in improving physiological functions, and therefore boosting the efficiency (e.g.

High-Pressure Microbial Physiology

1976
Publisher Summary This particular chapter focuses on the barophysiology of micro-organisms, primarily bacteria, with the aim of developing some feeling for the molecular aspects of the pressure responses. The vacuoles of blue-green algae proved to be somewhat more resistant to collapse, but still one can envisage a situation in which these vacuoles ...

Secondary Metabolism and Microbial Physiology

1985
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the biochemical similarities and differences between primary and secondary metabolism. The known secondary metabolites are divided into three categories according to the perceived source of the carbon from which their skeletons are derived.

Microbial physiology and biotechnology

Endeavour, 1985
Abstract Fermentation processes are virtually as old as civilisation itself but only within the past century have the underlying processes begun to be understood. Today, microorganisms are used to make a variety of industrial chemicals.

Physiology of microbial cells and metabolic engineering

Microbiology, 2000
This review is devoted to the problems of the physiology and cell biology of microorganisms in relation to metabolic engineering. The latter is considered as a branch of fundamental and applied biotechnology aimed at controlling microbial metabolism by methods of genetic engineering and classical genetics and based on intimate knowledge of cell ...

Applied Microbial Physiology

1997
Abstract The rapid growth in biotechnology in recent years has led to an upsurge in interest in microbial technology amongst many biochemists, molecular biologists, geneticists, virologists, endocrinologists, and clinicians. Their objectives may be very diverse, ranging from the isolation of a stable enzyme from a hyperthermophile to ...
