Rapid high-throughput assessment of aerobic bacteria in complex samples by fluorescence-based oxygen respirometry

Article Abstract:

A simple method with rapid high-throughput assessment of aerobic bacteria in complex samples such as broth and food homogenates by fluorescence based oxygen respirometry is developed by employing commercial phosphorescent oxygen sensitive probes. It allows for screening a wide range of chemical and environmental samples and is validated with different bacteria such as Escherichia coli.

Ecology of the microbial community removing phosphate from wastewater under continuously aerobic conditions in a sequencing batch reactor

Article Abstract:

A novel aerobic process is described that is capable of decreasing the amount of phosphate over an extended period from two wastewaters with low chemical oxygen demand. The analysis has shown that Candidatus Accumulibacter phosphatis bacteria are the dominant poly(P)-accumulating organisms (PAO) in both communities.

Microbial composition and structure of aerobic granular sewage biofilms

Article Abstract:

The structural and important microbial properties of different type of aerobic activated sludge granules were analyzed. Results conclude that granules comprise of bacteria, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), protozoa, and in some cases fungi.
