Obesity is associated with hypothalamic inflammation (HI) in animal models. In the current
study, we examined the mediobasal hypothalamus (MBH) of 57 obese human subjects and …

The taxonomic characteristics of two bacterial strains, FH5T and SS4, isolated from
enrichment cultures obtained from two distinct marine environments, were determined …

The use of biodegradable plastics is constantly raising, increasing the likeliness for these
polymers to end up in the environment. Environmental applications foreseeing the …

Treatment of produced water, ie wastewater from hydraulic fracturing, for reuse or final
disposal is challenged by both high salinity and the presence of organic compounds …

The anaerobic, mesophilic and moderately halophilic strain L21‐Spi‐D4T was recently
isolated from the suboxic zone of a hypersaline cyanobacterial mat using protein‐rich …

Many marine bacteria are difficult to culture because they are dormant, rare or found in low-
abundances. Enrichment culturing has been widely tested as an important strategy to isolate …

Antarctic subglacial environments host microbial ecosystems and are proving to be
geochemically and biologically diverse. The Taylor Glacier, Antarctica, periodically expels …

The aim of this work was to prove a process temperature of 45° C as a practical alternative to
commonly applied mesophilic (37° C) and thermophilic (55° C) anaerobic digestion (AD) …

A continuous microbial fuel cell system was constructed treating ammonium/organics rich
wastewater. Operational performance of MFC system, mechanisms of ammonium removal …

A novel anaerobic moderately thermophilic bacterium, designated strain 38H-str T, was
isolated from a 12 m deep hot spring of the Kunashir Island shore. Gram-negative cells were …
