Methylophaga
The genus ''Methylophaga'' consists of halophilic methylotrophic members of the ''Gammaproteobacteria'', all of which were isolated from marine or otherwise low water activity environments, such as the surface of marble or hypersaline lakes. The cells are rod-shaped.Garrity, George M. (2005). Bergey's manual of systematic bacteriology, Volume Two: The Proteobacteria, Part B: The Gammaproteobacteria. New York: Springer . and are motile by a single polar flagellum. (with the possible exception of ''M. aminisulfidivorans'' which has been described as being non-motile) When ''Methylophaga'' was defined originally as a genus in 1985, all species known at that time were auxotrophic for vitamin B12, however, many species were found to be non-auxotrophic and so this is no longer a defining characteristic. ''Methylophaga'' spp. are the dominant methylotrophs in the upper layers of the oceans, and have key roles in the biogeochemical cycling of methanol, monomethylamine, dimethylsulfide a ...

Methylophaga Muralis
''Methylophaga muralis'' is a species of Pseudomonadota. It is capable of surviving in saline and alkaline environments and can obtain its carbon from methanol. This species was originally discovered in crumbling marble in the Moscow Kremlin; it has also been found in a soda lake in Buryatia. Taxonomic history and etymology This species was discovered in scrapings from deteriorating marble monuments in the crypts of the Moscow Kremlin. It was originally named ''M. murata'' in its 2005 species description by Russian Academy of Sciences microbiologist and colleagues, but was renamed in 2011 to ''M. muralis''. The type strain, Kr3, was deposited in the All-Russia Collection of Microorganisms (VKM) and the National Collection of Industrial and Marine Bacteria (NCIMB) culture collections. The specific epithet is a Latin adjective meaning "of or belonging to a wall". Its original specific epithet, , means "surrounded by walls". Distribution and habitat The type strain Kr3 was extr ...

Methylophaga Thiooxydans
''Methylophaga thiooxydans'' is a methylotrophic bacterium that requires high salt concentrations for growth. It was originally isolated from a culture of the algae ''Emiliania huxleyi'', where it grows by breaking down dimethylsulfoniopropionate from ''E. hexleyi'' into dimethylsulfide and acrylate. ''M. thiooxydans'' has been implicated as a dominant organism in phytoplankton blooms, where it consumes dimethylsulfide, methanol and methyl bromide released by dying phytoplankton. It was also identified as one of the dominant organisms present in the plume following the ''Deepwater Horizon'' oil spill, and was identified as a major player in the breakdown of methanol in coastal surface water in the English channel. Metabolism ''M. thiooxydans'' is a chemolithoheterotroph. ''Emiliania huxleyi'' produces dimethylsulfoniopropionate as an osmolyte to allow it to grow at the elevated salt concentrations in seawater, which is broken down by bacteria in the mixed-culture to release ...

Monomethylamine
Methylamine is an organic compound with a formula of . This colorless gas is a derivative of ammonia, but with one hydrogen atom being replaced by a methyl group. It is the simplest primary amine. Methylamine is sold as a solution in methanol, ethanol, tetrahydrofuran, or water, or as the anhydrous gas in pressurized metal containers. Industrially, methylamine is transported in its anhydrous form in pressurized railcars and tank trailers. It has a strong odor similar to rotten fish. Methylamine is used as a building block for the synthesis of numerous other commercially available compounds. Industrial production Methylamine is prepared commercially by the reaction of ammonia with methanol in the presence of an aluminosilicate catalyst. Dimethylamine and trimethylamine are co-produced; the reaction kinetics and reactant ratios determine the ratio of the three products. The product most favored by the reaction kinetics is trimethylamine. : In this way, an estimated 115,000 tons ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sulfide
Sulfide (British English also sulphide) is an inorganic anion of sulfur with the chemical formula S2− or a compound containing one or more S2− ions. Solutions of sulfide salts are corrosive. ''Sulfide'' also refers to chemical compounds large families of inorganic and organic compounds, e.g. lead sulfide and dimethyl sulfide. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and bisulfide (SH−) are the conjugate acids of sulfide. Chemical properties The sulfide ion, S2−, does not exist in aqueous alkaline solutions of Na2S. Instead sulfide converts to hydrosulfide: :S2− + H2O → SH− + OH− Upon treatment with an acid, sulfide salts convert to hydrogen sulfide: :S2− + H+ → SH− :SH− + H+ → H2S Oxidation of sulfide is a complicated process. Depending on the conditions, the oxidation can produce elemental sulfur, polysulfides, polythionates, sulfite, or sulfate. Metal sulfides react with halogens, forming sulfur and metal salts. :8 MgS + 8 I2 → S8 + 8 M ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
