Calcium carbonate represents a large portion of carbon reservoir and is used commercially for a variety of applications. Microbial carbonate precipitation, a by-product of microbial …
Concrete, one of the most important building materials, has been in use for nearly two hundred years and will likely continue to be the dominant building material for the …
The anaerobic oxidation of methane coupled to sulfate reduction is a microbially mediated process requiring a syntrophic partnership between anaerobic methanotrophic (ANME) …
The anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) with sulfate controls the emission of the greenhouse gas methane from the ocean floor,. In marine sediments, AOM is performed by …
Archaea are a domain of prokaryotic organisms with intriguing physiological characteristics and ecological importance. In Microbial Biotechnology, archaea are historically …
Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is catalyzed by anaerobic methane‐oxidizing archaea (ANME) via a reverse and modified methanogenesis pathway. Methanogens can …

Reduction–oxidation (redox) reactions occur during burial because sediments contain reactive mixtures of oxidised and reduced components. Diagenetic chemical reactions …
Glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraether (GDGT) lipids are membrane lipids which were long thought to be synthesized mainly by archaea, organisms thought to be limited to extreme …
