environmental microbiology

Environmental microbiologists - work in the field of environmental microbiology and study microbial processes in the environment.

Worden publishes in the fields of environmental microbiology, evolutionary biology, genome science and oceanography.

Applied and environmental microbiology.

She graduated from the University of California at Los Angeles, where her father, who is retired, was a professor of environmental microbiology.

The Gram stain is not an infallible tool for diagnosis, identification, or phylogeny, and it is of extremely limited use in environmental microbiology.

Pyrosequencing DNA sequencing is a vital part of our research into pathogen identification, environmental microbiology and genomics.

His areas of interest include microbial genetics, molecular epidemiology, environmental microbiology, ecology, and evolution of bacterial pathogens, particularly those associated with waterborne and foodborne diseases.

Yung, P.T., Ponce, A. Applied and Environmental Microbiology, accepted.

A classic example of a sulfur-oxidizing bacterium is Beggiatoa, a microbe originally described by Sergei Winogradsky, one of the founders of environmental microbiology.

In an article from the Applied and Environmental Microbiology Journal, it was found that PMMoV could be a potential indicator of fecal pollution.

Winogradsky was one of the first researchers to attempt to understand microorganisms outside of the medical context, making him among the first students of microbial ecology and environmental microbiology.

A recent paper (Braissant et al. 2010) provides a general introduction to IMC methods in microbiology and an overview of applications in medical and environmental microbiology.

Lily Young is a distinguished professor of environmental microbiology at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in New Brunswick.

The School of Innovation conducts research on composting technology (including bio-gas energy), environmental microbiology, livestock genetics and nutrition, natural fibers, and new products from crops and bio-processing.

The Azotobacter genus was discovered in 1901 by the Dutch microbiologist and botanist Martinus Beijerinck, who was one of the founders of environmental microbiology.

However, with the increasing application of genomics in the field of environmental microbiology, a new and promising perspective is now at hand to obtain molecular insights into these new metabolic properties.

Molecular microbiology techniques are currently being used in the development of new genetically engineered vaccines, in bioremediation, biotechnology, food microbiology, probiotic research, antibacterial development and environmental microbiology.

"The desk, in terms of bacteria, is 400 times more dirty than your toilet," says Charles Gerba, PhD, a professor of environmental microbiology at the University of Arizona in Tucson.

"It's enough to make even the least germophobic person a little worried," says Dr. Germ, a.k.a. Charles Gerba, PhD, a professor of environmental microbiology at the University of Arizona.

Confirming the presence of polio in a city with even one infected person is not impossible, said Dr. Mark D. Sobsey, a professor of environmental microbiology at the University of North Carolina.

The USC Wrigley Institute has specialized programs in environmental microbiology, geobiology, ocean biogeochemistry, living marine resources (including fisheries and aquaculture), climate change, coastal environmental quality and the urban ocean.

Chuck Gerba, a professor of environmental microbiology at the University of Arizona who has studied bacteria in home kitchens, said that he found that people who had the cleanest-looking kitchens were often the dirtiest.

Dr. Gerba is best known in his field of environmental microbiology for his work in uncovering how viruses infiltrate drinking water, and has consulted for American cities and other countries on how to improve water quality.

That means you can get E. coli on your hands every time you transfer underwear from the washer to the dryer, says Charles Gerba, PhD, a professor of environmental microbiology at the University of Arizona.

In the field of Environmental microbiology, genome-based global studies open a new era providing unprecedented in silico views of metabolic and regulatory networks, as well as clues to the evolution of degradation pathways and to the molecular adaptation strategies to changing environmental conditions.
