desulfitobacterium การใช้
- Species of Desulfitobacterium are being investigated for their potential in the bioremediation of halogenic organic compounds.
- It has subsequently been found throughout the family " Methanosarcinaceae " as well as in a single bacterium, " Desulfitobacterium hafniense ".
- The adjacent genes are conserved in the vicinity of OLE RNA in most species containing it, but in Desulfitobacterium hafniense they are located elsewhere on the chromosome.
- ""'Desulfitobacterium metallireducens " "'is an anaerobic bacterium that couples growth to the reduction of metals and humic acids as well as chlorinated compounds.
- The herbicide, and one of its common degradation products ( 3, 5-dibromo-4-hydroxybenzoic acid ) have been shown to undergo metabolic reductive dehalogenation by the microorganism, Desulfitobacterium chlororespirans.
- Recently, it has become apparent that some organisms, including " Desulfitobacterium chlororespirans ", originally evaluated for halorespiration on chlorophenols, can also use certain brominated compounds, such as the herbicide bromoxynil and its major metabolite as electron acceptors for growth.
