  2. 21. On the Ecology of Saprotrophic Fungi and Bacteria in Soil: Biotic and Abiotic Control of Growth Rates

    Author : Johannes Rousk; MEMEG; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; decomposer ecology; soil pH; temperature relationship; Fungal growth; litter decomposition; bacterial growth; C:N;

    Abstract : Two groups of organisms dominate the decomposition in soil: fungi and bacteria. One of the most important parameters to optimise for any organism is its growth, and thus a direct way to study the effect of environmental factors on fungi and bacteria in soil is to measure their growth rate.

  4. 22. Pharmacodynamic effects of antibiotics on growing and nongrowing bacteria

    Author : Erik Svensson; Peter Larsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : The main objective of this thesis was to study antibiotic effects on nongrowing baCteria and to study the development of resistance in Staphylococcus epidermidis, a bacterium which is often found in biofilm infections. The antibiotic effect on biofilm infections is generally weak, which probably is due to decreased growth rate of the bacteria. READ MORE

  5. 23. Ammonia assimilation and nitrogen fixation in phototrophic bacteria : studies on glutamine synthease and the metabolic regulation of nitrogenase in Rhodospirillum rubrum

    Author : Abdelhamid Soliman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The phototrophic bacteria and a few other species, are able to control nitrogen fixation on the metabolic level. This is a fast and reversible mechanism, which “switches off and on” the nitrogenase activity in response to the accessibility of combined nitrogen, the energy supply and the level of oxygen in the medium.

  6. 24. Bacterioplankton in the light of seasonality and environmental drivers

    Author : Carina Bunse; Jarone Pinhassi; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; marine bacteria; marine microbiology; seasonal succession; ocean acidification; proteorhodopsin; photoheterotrophy; microbial time series; Akvatisk ekologi; Aquatic Ecology; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology; Miljövetenskap; Environmental Science;

    Abstract : Bacterioplankton are keystone organisms in marine ecosystems. They are important for element cycles, by transforming dissolved organic carbon and other nutrients. Bacterioplankton community composition and productivity rates change in surface waters over spatial and temporal scales. READ MORE

  7. 25. Bacteria-sulfide mineral interactions with reference to flotation and flocculation

    Author : Annamaria Vilinska; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mineralteknik; Mineral Processing;

    Abstract : Biological processes have been attracting attention in mineral processing industry due to their lower operating costs, environmental acceptability and flexibility in adaptation. Bio-hydrometallurgical methods to treat various sulfide and oxide ores have been developed during the years and these processes have been adopted by certain industries. READ MORE
