Nanomaterials display novel and improved properties due to their morphology, size, and size distribution over the bulk materials from which they are made. They are appropriate to manufacture thin films, holding high surface to volume ratio (S/V), diameter, and pore size corresponding with natural...
Therefore, microorganisms and their metabolic activities are significant to the occurrence, development and seepage process of clogging in GARS. Based on research and analysis of growth and metabolic characteristics of common microorganisms in GARS, the factors that govern the growth and metabolic ...
fungi, and ecosystems. However, microbes (bacteria, yeasts, molds, viruses, and other organisms), often considered invisible in their interactions with humans, are often neglected. Microorganisms were the earliest life forms on Earth, and humans have interacted with them throughout history. Over tim...
Viruses can vary in size and ___. 29. A virus that transcribes DNA from an RNA template is called a(n) ___. 30. An enzyme called ___ manufactures DNA that is complementary to a virus’s RNA. 31. ___ are viruses that infect bacteria and have a polyhedral head and a helical ta...
The present invention sorts microorganism populations from a mixture which contains more than one microorganism population. Microorganisms of different types vary in size, shape, and surface charge ch
The change alphas-f due to the presence of microbes was strongly correlated with crystal morphology, such that biotic precipitates have smaller aspect ratios than abiotic precipitates produced under the same conditions. The change in morphology led to the hypothesis that microbially produced soluble and...
1.A genetically engineered microorganism capable of producing a product from a gaseous substrate, wherein the microorganism comprises an iterative pathway comprising:a) a nucleic acid encoding a group of enzymes that are capable of catalyzing the conversion of (Cn)-acyl CoA to β-ketoacyl-CoA;b...
The trypto- phan in the viruses phi6 and phi12, and their bacterial host proteins is the predominant fluorophore under UV light, and the fluorescence characteristics of tryptophan vary according to the protein environment [35]. Combined with PCA, a 266 nm UV laser has been used to ...
mat and the putative filamentous nature of early terrestrial stromatolite communities suggest that the evolution of multicellularity in the form of filamentous bacteria may have been requisite for the proliferation of thick, subaerial microbial mats and their preservation in the rock record. Photosynthetic...
water interface as well as spread-out lipid films and liposomes. S-layers show pores of regular size and morphology. Permeability studies have shown that S-layers demonstrate sharp molecular mass separation limits in the ultra-filtration area. These properties have also led to the use of S-...
