The injection of sulfate-containing seawater into an oil reservoir, for maintaining the reservoir pressure, can promote the growth of sulfate reducing bacteria and archaea near the injection wells, leading to the formation of sulfides such as hydrogen sulfide. However, intermediate sulfur species with...
Here, we present metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) from sulfate-reducing and sulfur-oxidizing bacteria that contain and highly express genes for nitrogen fixation in the roots ofS. alterniflora. Further, we reveal that the most dominant and active sulfur-oxidizing bacteria in theS. alternifloraroot...
(ATP) and reducing power). Green bacteria occur as members of three phyla,Chlorobi,Chloroflexi, andAcidobacteria, within the DomainBacteria, and the members of these three taxa differ significantly in many physiological and biochemical properties.Green sulfur bacteria(GSB;Chlorobiales) are obligately ...
1997a, b) at stimulating environmental sulfur-reducing bacteria (Bradley 2003; Carr and Hughes 1998). In each of these studies, the pH of the water was generally between 6 and 8. Sheoran et al. (2010) reported that axenic cultures of sulfur-reducing bacteria isolated from the environment ...
, 1987). Despite the ubiquity of CH4 formation from DMS and MeSH degradation, SO42−-reducing bacteria appear to dominate degradation in marine sediments (Kiene, 1996a) and SO42−-reducing bacteria are known to degrade DMS in freshwater environments as well. Methanogens and SO42−-reducing...
and the waste water containing the reductive sulfur compd. is supplied to the aeration tank. The aeration in the aeration tank is controlled using the redox potential ORP calculated from the change quantity of free energy generated when the reductive sulfur compd. contained in the waste water is...
Characterization of Phototrophic Purple Non-sulfur Bacteria Isolated from a Eutrophic Lake in Taiwan 紫色不含硫光合菌是一群代谢方式多样且充满弹性的微生物,在不同的环境可进行不同之代谢模式:包括光合自营,光合异营,化学异营,及化学自营.由於这类细菌的特殊生理特质,... 林秀萍(Hsiu-Ping Lin),离杰民(Jimmy ...
Elemental sulfur also may be obtained by smelting sulfide ores with a reducing agent, such as coke or natural gas, or by reduction of sulfur dioxide. Reactions Sulfur forms two oxides, sulfur dioxide, SO2, and the trioxide, SO3. It burns in oxygen at about 250°C or in air above 260°...
This chapter provides an overview of prokaryotes that reduce oxygenated sulfate or elemental sulfur in their energy metabolism. Sulfate-reducing bacteria gain energy for cell synthesis and growth by coupling the oxidation of organic compounds or molecula
