| phylogenetic and metabolic diversity of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (rdx)-transforming bacteria in strictly anaerobic mixed cultures enriched on rdx as nitrogen source. | five obligate anaerobes that were most closely related to clostridium bifermentans, clostridium celerecrescens, clostridium saccharolyticum, clostridium butyricum and desulfovibrio desulfuricans by their 16s rrna genes sequences were isolated from enrichment cultures using hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (rdx) as a nitrogen source. the above isolates transformed rdx at rates of 24.0, 5.4, 6.2, 2.5, 5.5 mumol h(-1) g (dry weight) of cells(-1), respectively, to nitrite, formaldehyde, metha ... | 2003 | 19719572 |
| bio-reduction of fe(iii) ores using three pure strains of aeromonas hydrophila, serratia fonticola and clostridium celerecrescens and a natural consortium. | the present work describes a research approach to the anaerobic bioleaching of fe(iii) ores. three strains (serratia fonticola, aeromonas hydrophila and clostridium celerecrescens) isolated from an acidic abandoned mine were selected to test their ability to reduce dissimilatory fe(iii). total iron bio-reduction was achieved after 48h using either the consortium or the aeromonas cultures. in the latter case, there was no evidence of precipitates and fe(ii) remained in solution at neutral ph thro ... | 2010 | 20627716 |
| dominant bacterial communities in the rumen of gayals (bos frontalis), yaks (bos grunniens) and yunnan yellow cattle (bos taurs) revealed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis. | the dominant rumen bacteria in gayals, yaks and yunnan yellow cattle were investigated using pcr-dgge approach. the analysis of dgge profiles, identification of dominant bands and phylogenetic analysis 16s rdna sequences in dgge profiles were combined to reveal the dominant bacterial communities and compared the differences between those cattle species. dgge profiles revealed that gayals had the most abundant dominant bacteria and the lowest similarity of intraspecies between individuals than ot ... | 2010 | 21140219 |

| enhanced start-up of anaerobic facultatively autotrophic biocathodes in bioelectrochemical systems. | biocathodes in bioelectrochemical systems (bess) can be used to convert co2 into diverse organic compounds through a process called microbial electrosynthesis. unfortunately, start-up of anaerobic biocathodes in bess is a difficult and time consuming process. here, a pre-enrichment method was developed to improve start-up of anaerobic facultatively autotrophic biocathodes capable of using cathodes as the electron donor (electrotrophs) and co2 as the electron acceptor. anaerobic enrichment of bac ... | 2013 | 24126154 |
| clostridium celerecrescens, often misidentified as "clostridium clostridioforme group," is involved in rare human infection cases. | misidentification of rare clostridium species often originated from the environment as clinically relevant species is problematic. a strain isolated from a traumatic leg wound first identified as c. clostridioforme was finally identified as the rare clostridium celerecrescens. two similar misidentifications are reported in the literature. in order to help the phenotypic differentiation of c. celerecrescens from the close species of the "c. clostridioforme group", an identification table and diff ... | 2012 | 22901791 |
