Bacteria
Bacteria (; singular: bacterium) are ubiquitous, mostly free-living organisms often consisting of one biological cell. They constitute a large domain of prokaryotic microorganisms. Typically a few micrometres in length, bacteria were among the first life forms to appear on Earth, and are present in most of its habitats. Bacteria inhabit soil, water, acidic hot springs, radioactive waste, and the deep biosphere of Earth's crust. Bacteria are vital in many stages of the nutrient cycle by recycling nutrients such as the fixation of nitrogen from the atmosphere. The nutrient cycle includes the decomposition of dead bodies; bacteria are responsible for the putrefaction stage in this process. In the biological communities surrounding hydrothermal vents and cold seeps, extremophile bacteria provide the nutrients needed to sustain life by converting dissolved compounds, such as hydrogen sulphide and methane, to energy. Bacteria also live in symbiotic and parasitic re ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Thermoanaerobacter Mathranii
''Thermoanaerobacter mathranii'' is a thermophile, thermophilic, Anaerobic organism, anaerobic, Endospore, spore-forming bacteria. The bacteria was first isolated from an Icelandic hot spring. The growth range for the organism is 50 to 75°C and pH 4.7-8.8, with optimal growth conditions at 70-75°C and pH 7.0. ''T. mathranii'' stains Gram staining, Gram-variable, but is structurally Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-positive. The species was named by the researchers, "in honor of the late Indra M.

Thermoanaerobacter Kivui
''Thermoanaerobacter kivui'' (formerly ''Acetogenium kivui'') is a thermophilic, anaerobic, nonspore-forming species of bacteria. ''T. kivui'' was originally isolated from Lake Kivu in Africa. The growth range for the organism is 50 to 72°C at pH 5.3-7.3, with optimal growth conditions at 66°C and pH 6.4. Although the organism stains Gram-negative, it shows a Gram-positive cell structure. The original genus ''Acetogenium'' was named because this organism principally produces acetic acid from substrates. ''T. kivui'' was originally named ''Acetogenium kivui'', which was the only species within a new genus.

Thermoanaerobacter Italicus
''Thermoanaerobacter italicus'' is a species of thermophilic, anaerobic, spore-forming bacteria. ''T. italicus'' was first isolated from hot springs in the north of Italy. The growth range for the organism is 45 to 78°C, with optimal growth conditions at 70°C and pH 7.0. The organism stains Gram-negative, although it has a Gram-positive cell structure.
