TCA Cycle Replenishing Pathways in Photosynthetic Purple Non-Sulfur Bacteria Growing with Acetate [PDF]

Life, 2021
Purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSB) are anoxygenic photosynthetic bacteria harnessing simple organic acids as electron donors. PNSB produce a-aminolevulinic acid, polyhydroxyalcanoates, bacteriochlorophylls a and b, ubiquinones, and other valuable ...

An Experimentally Evaluated Thermodynamic Approach to Estimate Growth of Photoheterotrophic Purple Non-sulfur Bacteria [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Distribution of energy during the growth and formation of useful chemicals by microorganisms can define the overall performance of a biotechnological system. However, to date, this distribution has not been used to reliably predict growth characteristics

Metabolic pathways to sustainability: review of purple non-sulfur bacteria potential in agri-food waste valorization [PDF]

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Agri-food waste (AFW) represents a significant fraction of the material generated by the agri-food industry, which itself accounts for almost one-third of the annual global anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

Photofermentative production of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) by purple non-sulfur bacteria using olive oil by-products [PDF]

Bioresources and Bioprocessing
This study evaluated the ability of six purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSB) to convert olive oil by-products into poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB). Strains were first independently cultivated in synthetic media with different carbon sources (acetic, lactic and
