Sulfate-reducing bacteria: Microbiology and physiology [PDF]
The sulfate reducing bacteria, the first nonphotosynthetic anaerobic bacteria demonstrated to contain c type cytochromes, perform electron transfer coupled to phosphorylation. A new bioenergetic scheme for the formation of a proton gradient for growth of

Thermophilic Sulfate Reduction in Hydrothermal Sediment of Lake Tanganyika, East Africa [PDF]
In environments with temperatures above 60 degrees C, thermophilic prokaryotes are the only metabolically active life-forms. By using the (SO42-)-S-35 tracer technique, we studied the activity of sulfate-reducing microorganisms (SRM) in hot sediment from

Versatile Medium for the Enumeration of Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria [PDF]
A lactate-yeast extract-sulfate medium, making use of both thioglycolate and ascorbate to poise the E n gave valid colony counts of sulfate-reducing bacteria with both pure cultures and natural samples.

Nanotherapies for Atherosclerosis: Targeting, Catalysis, and Energy Transduction
Atherosclerosis management is hindered by poor drug targeting and plaque heterogeneity. Nanotechnology overcomes these barriers via three core strategies: (1) target‐engineered nanocarriers that achieve lesion‐specific precision via ligand modification, biomimetic camouflage, stimuli‐responsive release, and self‐propelling nanomotors; (2) catalytic ...

Impacts of an Ethanol-Blended Fuel Release on Groundwater and Fate of Produced Methane: Simulation of Field Observations [PDF]
[1] In a field experiment at Vandenberg Air Force Base (VAFB) designed to mimic the impact of a small-volume release of E10 (10% ethanol and 90% conventional gasoline), two plumes were created by injecting extracted groundwater spiked with benzene ...

Anaerobic Biodegradation of Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons by a Sulfate Reducing Bacteria C1Fd Strain
Aromatic hydrocarbons contamination is widely prevalent in various parts of the world due to anthropogenic activities and leads to anaerobic conditions. As a result, most of its biodegradation is due to anaerobic microorganisms, and most specifically by ...

We developed a bioinspired mechano‐intelligent Janus bandage (MIB) with a hydrophobic flat exterior and a hydrophilic interior featuring gecko‐mimicking wedged microstructures, fabricated via micromolding and anisotropic plasma treatment. The MIB dynamically synchronizes adhesion and contraction, enabling precise force modulation.

Bacterial Elimination of Sulphates from Mine Waters
Sulfates can be found in almost all types of water, in form of simple anion SO42-. Together with hydrogen carbonates and chlorides, sulfates are the main anions in natural water ecosystems.
