Acetate-Inducing Metabolic States Enhance Polyhydroxyalkanoate Production in Marine Purple Non-sulfur Bacteria Under Aerobic Conditions

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are a family of biopolyesters that a variety of microorganisms accumulate as carbon and energy storage molecules under starvation conditions in the presence of excess carbon.

Growth of Non-Sulfur Purple Photosynthetic Bacteria under High Temperature

Bulletin of Japanese Society of Microbial Ecology, 1987
Four strains of non-sulfur purple photosynthetic bacteria isolated in the Bangkok area, Thailand, grew at 40 and 45°C under photosynthetic and strict anaerobic conditions. At higher temperature of 45°C, the bacteria did not grow under sealing with liquid paraffin.

Use of Purple Non-Sulfur Photosynthetic Bacteria (Rhodobacter sphaeroides) in Promoting Ciliated Protozoa Growth.

Biocontrol science, 2020
Photosynthetic bacterium (PSB) was isolated from sediment samples of Yamagawa Bay, Kagoshima, Japan. Phylogenetic analysis results of PSB isolate were closely related to Rhodobacter sphaeroides, purple non-sulfur photosynthetic bacteria (PNSB). Pink-colored smooth edges of single bacterial colonies were observed after 3-5 days of incubation period on ...

PHB-Rich Biomass and BioH₂ Production by Means of Photosynthetic Microorganisms

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2016
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are a family of biopolyesters produced by many bacteria as intracellular storage carbon and energy source. Poly-ß-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) is probably the most common type of PHA. It is biodegradable and renewable, with relevant

Global Proteomic Analysis Reveals High Light Intensity Adaptation Strategies and Polyhydroxyalkanoate Production in Rhodospirillum rubrum Cultivated With Acetate as Carbon Source

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSBs) are well known for their metabolic versatility. Among them, Rhodospirillum rubrum can assimilate a broad range of carbon sources, including volatile fatty acids (VFAs), such as acetate, propionate or butyrate.
