  • Microbial Metal Respiration

    From Geochemistry to Potential Applications

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Microbes can respire on metals. This seemingly simple finding is one of the major discoveries that were made in the field of microbiology in the last few decades. The importance of this observation is evident. Metals are highly abundant on our planet. Iron is even the most abundant element on Earth and the forth most abundant element in the Earth’s crust. Hence, in some environments iron, but also ... Read more

  • Anoxia

    Evidence for Eukaryote Survival and Paleontological Strategies

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    ANOXIA defines the lack of free molecular oxygen in an environment. In the presence of organic matter, anaerobic prokaryotes produce compounds such as free radicals, hydrogen sulfide, or methane that are typically toxic to aerobes. The concomitance of suppressed respiration and presence of toxic substances suggests these habitats are inhospitable to Eukaryota. Ecologists sometimes term such ... Read more

  • Geomicrobiology: Molecular and Environmental Perspective

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The interaction of microorganisms with geological activities results in processes influencing development of the Earth’s geo- and biospheres. In assessing these microbial functions, scientists have explored short- and longterm geological changes attributed to microorganisms and developed new approaches to evaluate the physiology of microbes including microbial interaction with the geological ...
