Simultaneous degradation of phenol and n-hexadecane by Acinetobacter strains.

Ji-Quan Sun et al.

Bioresource technology, 123, 664-668 (2012-09-04)

Three phenol- and alkanes-degrading bacterial strains were isolated from a freshwater sample. Upon the 16S rRNA gene analysis, phenotype and physiological features, the three strains were designated as Acinetobacter sp. with both phenol hydroxylase gene (phe) and alkane monooxygenase gene

On-demand separation of oil-water mixtures.

Gibum Kwon et al.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.), 24(27), 3666-3671 (2012-06-13)

In this work, the first-ever membrane-based single unit operation that enables gravity driven, on-demand separation of various oil-water mixtures is developed. Using this methodology, the on-demand separation of free oil and water, oil-in-water emulsions, and water-in-oil emulsions is demonstrated, with

Molecular Mechanisms of Enhanced Bacterial Growth on Hexadecane with Red Clay.

Jaejoon Jung et al.

Microbial ecology, 70(4), 912-921 (2015-05-10)

Red clay was previously used to enhance bioremediation of diesel-contaminated soil. It was speculated that the enhanced degradation of diesel was due to increased bacterial growth. In this study, we selected Acinetobacter oleivorans DR1, a soil-borne degrader of diesel and

Adsorption of Rotavirus, MS2 Bacteriophage and Surface-Modified Silica Nanoparticles to Hydrophobic Matter.

Kata Farkas et al.

Food and environmental virology, 7(3), 261-268 (2014-10-25)

Adsorption to aquifer media is an important process in the removal of viruses from groundwater. Even though hydrophobic interactions have been shown to contribute to adsorption, little is known about the hydrophobicity of viruses found in groundwater. In this study

Two Phages, phiIPLA-RODI and phiIPLA-C1C, Lyse Mono- and Dual-Species Staphylococcal Biofilms.

Diana Gutiérrez et al.

Applied and environmental microbiology, 81(10), 3336-3348 (2015-03-10)

Phage therapy is a promising option for fighting against staphylococcal infections. Two lytic phages, vB_SauM_phiIPLA-RODI (phiIPLA-RODI) and vB_SepM_phiIPLA-C1C (phiIPLA-C1C), belonging to the Myoviridae family and exhibiting wide host ranges, were characterized in this study. The complete genome sequences comprised 142,348
