Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Environmental Parameters on hydrogen Production using Clostridium Saccharoperbutylacetonicum N1-4(ATCC 13564)Walid M. Alalayah, Mohd Sahaid Kalil, Abdul Amir H. Kadhum et al.Problem statement: Hydrogen gas production by Clostridium can be improved by several ways through media formulation, or suitable environment condition. This study was carried out to investigate the environmental factors effects on hydrogen production using Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum N1-4 (ATCC 13564). Approach: The environmental factor studied includes initial substrate concentration, initial medium pH, temperature, sparging nitrogen and addition of Fe2+. Results: … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Bacillus subtilis 'PB6' (ATCC - PTA 6737) on Clostridium difficile Associated Diarrhea (CDAD) and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) in Animal ModelsEric Peys, Jerry Varghese, Ponusami Suresh et al.The administration of probiotic bacteria is emerging as a potential means of preventing the onset or recurrence of Clostridium difficile associated diarrhea (CDAD) and of attenuating inflammatory activity and preventing relapses in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We evaluated the efficacy of Bacillus subtilis 'PB6' (ATCC - PTA 6737) in a hamster model of antibiotic-induced CDAD and in a rat model … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,097 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of pH on the Conformation and Biological Activity of Clostridium septicum Alpha-toxin, a Pore-forming HemolysinB.M. Hang'ombe, T. Kohda, M. Mukamoto, S. KozakiThe effects of pH on the pore-forming Clostridium septicum alpha-toxin that causes myonecrosis was assessed at pH 5.0, 7.0 and 9.0 by measuring circular dichroism and its biological activity. Incubation of the toxin at pH 5.0 increased the hemolytic activity measured in murine red blood cells. On the other hand, incubation of the toxin at pH 9.0 drastically reduces the … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBacteria of the Clostridium Genus, Methane and Hydrogen Sulfide in Sulfide Mud of the Taman Peninsula ReservoirsYury Aleksandrovich Fedorov, Gar'kusha Dmitry Nikolayevich, Roman Gennad'yevich TrubnikThe features of the distribution of the concentrations of hydrogen sulfide, methane and the number of sulfite-reducing clostridia in the mud of the Bugazsky, Kiziltashsky and Vityazevsky limans and Chembursky lake were studied, and their physiological and chemical conditions and levels of anthropogenic loading were assessed. The tendency of reduction of the content of the studied reduced gases from the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2018 · 7,087 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessEvery word in the titleRecovered Gases and Bacteria from the Clostridium Genus as Ecological Condition Indicators of Bottom Sediments of the Eastern Donbass Small RiversRoman Gennad'yevich Trubnik, Yuriy Aleksandrovich Fedorov, Ludmila Anatol'yevna NedosekaThe results of determination of methane, total hydrogen sulfide and sulfite reducing clostridia in bottom sediments of small rivers and reservoirs of the Eastern Donbass are presented. The horizontal and vertical distribution of levels of reduced gases in bottom sediments is analyzed. The ecological condition of the bottom sediments was estimated by the clostridia titer and the methane index. The … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2017 · 7,100 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessEvery word in the titleProsthetic Valve Endocarditis Due to Clostridium Limosum: A Case Report and Review of the LiteratureLok Yung, Carl Urban, Negin Niknam, Glenn TurettClostridium limosum is an anaerobic gram positive rod-shaped bacterium found in soil and can cause infections in a variety of animals. Rarely has this organism caused infections in humans. While clostridial prosthetic valve endocarditis is reported infrequently, we document the first human case of prosthetic valve endocarditis as the sole pathogen, due to Clostrdium limosum. …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 10 Oct 2019 · 7,767 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEpidemiology and Detection of Bacterial Diarrhea Using Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction, Focusing on Campylobacter spp.Eun Ju Oh, Tae Su Jang, Jung Min Park, Jae Kyung KimThis study assessed the clinical characteristics, epidemiological trends, and changes associated with major pathogens causing gastrointestinal inflammation. We retrospectively analyzed the test results of hospitalized patients who were administered a mPCR test for diarrhea causing bacteria between June 2010 and December 2019 at the Cheonan Dankook University hospital in the Republic of Korea and identified clinical characteristics and epidemiological trends … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2023 · 4,979 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Nitrogen Source and Carbon to Nitrogen Ratio on Hydrogen Production using C. acetobutylicumMohd Sahaid Kalil, Hisham Salem Alshiyab, Wan Mohtar Wan YusoffProblem statement: One of the main factors influenced the bacterial productivity and total yield of hydrogen is the nitrogen source and its concentration. Approach: Using different nitrogen source with different concentration on bacterial productivity of hydrogen showed to affect on both bacterial productivity of hydrogen and biomass concentration. Results: Yeast extract as nitrogen source at concentration of 13 g L-1 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,837 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of a Pressure Cooker for Homemade High-Temperature Sterilization of RendangDaimon Syukri, Rini, Risa Meutia Fiana et al.This study aimed to analyze the impact of pressure cooker (presto) sterilization on the nutritional value and microbial content of rendang, a traditional Indonesian meat dish. The evaluated parameters included moisture content, ash content, fat content, protein content, and total plate count (TPC), measured before and after a 40-minute sterilization process. The results showed a moderate increase in moisture (from … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 28 Jun 2025 · 3,264 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of Rumen Content by Indigenous Microorganisms in a Modified Anaerobic DigesterAlhassan Salihu Adam, Sani Yahaya, Haruna Musa et al.The current work was designed to assess the effect of modification of model digester on the kinetics that affects efficiency in biogas generation using bovine rumen content as the feedstock.
