  2. Anaerobic organism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_organism

    [5] [6] Two examples of obligate anaerobes are Clostridium botulinum and the bacteria which live near hydrothermal vents on the deep-sea ocean floor. Aerotolerant organisms, which cannot use oxygen for growth, but tolerate its presence. [7] Facultative anaerobes, which can grow without oxygen but use oxygen if it is present. [7]

  3. Purple sulfur bacteria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple_sulfur_bacteria

    The purple sulfur bacteria (PSB) are part of a group of Pseudomonadota capable of photosynthesis, collectively referred to as purple bacteria. They are anaerobic or microaerophilic , and are often found in stratified water environments including hot springs , stagnant water bodies, as well as microbial mats in intertidal zones.

  4. Obligate anaerobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obligate_anaerobe

    4: Microaerophiles need oxygen because they cannot ferment or respire anaerobically. However, they are poisoned by high concentrations of oxygen. They gather in the upper part of the test tube but not the very top. 5: Aerotolerant organisms do not require oxygen and cannot utilise it even if present; they metabolise energy anaerobically. Unlike ...

  5. Aerotolerant anaerobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerotolerant_anaerobe

    1: Obligate aerobes need oxygen because they cannot ferment or respire anaerobically. They gather at the top of the tube where the oxygen concentration is highest. 2: Obligate anaerobes are poisoned by oxygen, so they gather at the bottom of the tube where the oxygen concentration is lowest.

  6. Facultative anaerobic organism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facultative_anaerobic_organism

    They gather at the top of the tube where the oxygen concentration is highest. 2: Obligate anaerobes are poisoned by oxygen, so they gather at the bottom of the tube where the oxygen concentration is lowest. 3: Facultative anaerobes can grow with or without oxygen because they can metabolise energy aerobically or anaerobically. They gather ...

  7. Sulfur-reducing bacteria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur-reducing_bacteria

    Sulfur reducing bacteria are used to remove Arsenite from the arsenic-contaminated waters, like acid mine drainage (AMD), metallurgy industry effluents, soils, surface and ground waters. The sulfidogenic process driven by sulfur reducing bacteria (Desulfurella) take place under acid condition and produce sulfide with which arsenite precipitates ...

    Not unlike your bacteria-covered bath mat, your dish drying mat is totally gross.It’s true. Just because your dishes are freshly-washed doesn’t mean bacteria isn’t lurking. “Even after ...

  9. Thioglycolate broth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thioglycolate_broth

    Aerobic and anaerobic bacteria can be identified by growing them in test tubes of thioglycolate broth: 1: Obligate aerobes need oxygen because they cannot ferment or respire anaerobically. They gather at the top of the tube where the oxygen concentration is highest.
