an alternative interpretation of nanobacteria-induced biomineralization. | the reported isolation of nanobacteria from human kidney stones raises the intriguing possibility that these microorganisms are etiological agents of pathological extraskeletal calcification [kajander, e. o. & ciftçioglu, n. (1998) proc. natl. acad. sci. usa 95, 8274-8279]. nanobacteria were previously isolated from fbs after prolonged incubation in dmem. these bacteria initiated biomineralization of the culture medium and were identified in calcified particles and biofilms by nucleic acid stain ... | 2000 | 11027350 |
changes in the metabolism of the microalga chlorella vulgaris when coimmobilized in alginate with the nitrogen-fixing phyllobacterium myrsinacearum. | in an agroindustrial wastewater pond, a naturally occurring unicellular microalga, chlorella vulgaris, was closely associated with the terrestrial plant-associative n2-fixing bacterium phyllobacterium myrsinacearum. when the two microorganisms were artificially coimmobilized in alginate beads, they shared the same internal bead cavities, and the production of five microalgal pigments increased, but there were no effects on the number of the cells or the biomass of the microalga. the association, ... | 2000 | 10932359 |
