Photosynthetic fuel cell using purple non-sulfur bacteria

2012 International Symposium on Optomechatronic Technologies (ISOT 2012), 2012
A photosynthetic fuel cell by bacteria has attracted features for a new energy by photosynthetic bacteria. Conventional methods requires for a mediator. It has a drawback because of light deterioration material. This paper is focused to develop a mediatorless fuel cell by photosynthetic bacteria with high efficiency.

Photosynthetic electron transport and anaerobic metabolism in purple non-sulfur phototrophic bacteria

Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek, 1994
Purple non-sulfur phototrophic bacteria, exemplified by Rhodobacter capsulatus and Rhodobacter sphaeroides, exhibit a remarkable versatility in their anaerobic metabolism. In these bacteria the photosynthetic apparatus, enzymes involved in CO2 fixation and pathways of anaerobic respiration are all induced upon a reduction in oxygen tension.

The Prospect of Purple Non-Sulfur (PNS) Photosynthetic Bacteria for Hydrogen Production: The Present State of the Art

World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2006
Hydrogen is the fuel for the future, mainly due to its recyclability and nonpolluting nature. Biological hydrogen production processes are operated at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressures, thus are less energy intensive and more environmentally friendly as compared to thermochemical and electrochemical processes.

Field and Laboratory Studies on some Photosynthetic Bacteria in Aswan High Dam Lake. II. Isolation and Identification of Purple Non-sulfur Bacteria (Rhodospirillaceae)

International Review of Hydrobiology, 1989
Abstract485 isolates were recorded from different localities between summer 1984 and spring 1985. These isolates comprise five different genera with eight different species of purple non‐sulfur bacteria‐ Rhodopseudomonas was the most common genus at all sites and was represented by three species. R. acidophila, R. blastica, R. palustris. Rhodomicrobium

Photosynthetic Purple Non Sulfur Bacteria in Hydrogen Producing Systems: New Approaches in the Use of Well Known and Innovative Substrates

2017
During the last few years, progress has been made in developing cleaner and more efficient bioenergy producing systems. Innovative processes and novel substrates were assessed at lab scale, in order to investigate and promote a sustainable development of photobiological hydrogen production.

Properties of Mutant Photosynthetic Reaction Centers of Purple Non-Sulfur Bacteria Cereibacter sphaeroides with M206 Ile→Gln Substitution

Biochemistry (Moscow), 2022
In the structure of photosynthetic reaction center (RC) of the purple bacterium Cereibacter sphaeroides the highly conserved amino acid residue Ile-M206 is located near the bacteriochlorophyll dimer P, which is the primary electron donor, and the monomeric bacteriochlorophyll BA, which is the nearest electron acceptor. Since Ile-M206 is close to the C2-

Characterization of alcohol-assimilating photosynthetic purple non-sulfur bacteria and cloning of molecular chaperones from a purple non-sulfur bacterium

Energy Conversion and Management, 1995
Abstract We screened several strains which exhibited significant photoorganotrophic growth on a chemically defined synthetic medium containing alcohols. Samples from sewage, rice fields, or other places were inoculated under anaerobic-light conditions at 30°C.

Regulation of CO2 fixation in non-sulfur purple photosynthetic bacteria

2005
Our laboratory studies the regulation of CO2 fixation in phototrophic micro-organisms. The expression of genes encoding enzymes responsible for assimilating CO2 is primarily regulated by a LysR-type transcriptional activator, CbbR, that functions by binding specific sites in the promoter region of both the cbb I and cbb II CO2 fixation operons under ...
