To further the quest to harness microbes for beneficial uses, scientists from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Purdue University developed a promising computational tool for analyzing ...
While cities, towns, and spaceships operated entirely from energy generated by microbial sources are still the stuff of science fiction, scientific knowledge needed for such a future can build from ...
Scientists at The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR) and collaborators elsewhere have deciphered the genome of a metal ion-reducing bacterium, Shewanella oneidensis, that has great potential as a ...
One of the most common bacteria in the Earth, Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, influences the mobility and bioavailability of iron and environmental contaminants like lead, cobalt and arsenic. Researchers ...
Rockville, MD. – Scientists at The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR) and collaborators elsewhere have deciphered the genome of a metal ion-reducing bacterium, Shewanella oneidensis, that has great ...
(Nanowerk News) When the Shewanella oneidensis bacterium “breathes” in certain metal and sulfur compounds anaerobically, the way an aerobic organism would process oxygen, it produces materials that ...
It can convert soluble metals and compounds, like uranium, into insoluble forms. It can live aerobically, in the presence of oxygen, or anaerobically, without oxygen. It can grow naturally almost ...
