Microbial spoilage of meat is a complex event to which many different bacterial populations
can contribute depending on the temperature of storage and packaging conditions. The …

Microorganisms able to grow on low molecular weight aliphatic hydrocarbon gases, ie the n‐
alkanes, ethane, propane and butane, and the terminal alkenes, ethylene, propylene and …

Mesophilic and psychrotrophic populations from refrigerated meat were identified in this
study, and the spoilage potential of microbial isolates in packaged beef was evaluated by …

The first step in the aerobic degradation of alkanes by bacteria, yeasts, and fungi is
catalyzed by oxygenases. These enzymes, which introduce oxygen atoms derived from …

Marine hydrocarbon seeps supply oil and gas to microorganisms in sediments and overlying
water. We used stable isotope probing (SIP) to identify aerobic bacteria oxidizing gaseous …

ABSTRACT A new isolate, Gordonia sp. strain TY-5, is capable of growth on propane and n-
alkanes with C13 to C22 carbon chains as the sole source of carbon. In whole-cell reactions …

Microorganisms proliferate, consume nutrients, and produce many undesired metabolites,
which are the main reason for the spoilage of fresh meat. Screening spoilage markers is of …

The taxonomic position of two butane-utilizing bacteria was studied using a polyphasic
approach. Biochemical and physiological characteristics indicated these to be members of …

This study aimed to assess the bacterial microbiota involved in the spoilage of pacu
(Piaractus mesopotamics), patinga (female Piaractus mesopotamics x male Piaractus …

'Pseudomonas butanovora'is capable of growth with butane via the oxidation of butane to 1-
butanol, which is catalysed by a soluble butane monooxygenase (sBMO). In vitro oxidation …
