Lambowitz and Mohr's investigation of introns in T. elongatus may also, unexpectedly, prove an enormous boon to researchers who are trying to use other high-temperature ( "thermophilic") bacteria to improve the efficiency of biofuels. ❋ Unknown (2010)
"thermophilic," a word that means "likes heat" but one that Foley had never heard before, she asked for the language of origin. ❋ Laura Stone (2010)
If warming occurs within the Barents Sea over the next hundred years, thermophilic species (i.e., those capable of living within a wide temperature range) will become more frequent. ❋ Unknown (2009)
IOW, why would you argue that the LUCA was not a gram-positive thermophilic bacteria, as Ciccarelli et al. suggest (please site why you think their conclusions are unjustified). ❋ Unknown (2006)
Vermicomposting is the breakdown of organic material that, in contrast to microbial composting, involves the joint action of different species of earthworms (not all earthworms are composting worms) and microorganisms and does not involve a thermophilic (i.e., high heat) stage. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The nearby spectacular Valley of the Geysers has 20 large geysers, over 100 hot springs, some with thermophilic algae, pulsating water funnels, mud cauldrons, poisonous miasmas, fumaroles, cascades, turquoise lakes and multicolored algae fields. ❋ Unknown (2008)
This particular presentation of the data suggests that the last universal common ancestor was a gram-positive thermophilic bacteria. ❋ Unknown (2006)
There are various ways of composting — aerobic static piles (non-interventionary), aerobic windrows (interventionary), using worms (vermicomposting, which is in fact a different type of process that does not involve the thermophilic stages), etc. ❋ Unknown (2007)
Composting is the controlled biological decomposition and pasteurization of organic materials under aerobic conditions — it involves the action of mesophilic microorganisms followed by thermophilic microorganisms that thrive under increased (more than 50 °C) temperature conditions and if correctly managed, can destroy disease-causing organisms, even weed seeds. ❋ Unknown (2007)
Protein design shows that we are poorly designed, heck we have to take most of our “what we desire to have” from thermophilic bacteria. ❋ Unknown (2007)
Life would go on, as archaic thermophilic microbes spread their gaudy colors across the land. ❋ Dozois, Gardner (2006)
The lactobacilli and streptococci that produce yogurt are “thermophilic,” or heat-loving species that may have come from the cattle themselves. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)
Fish are poikilothermic aquatic animals; rice plants are thermophilic and semiaquatic. ❋ Unknown (1995)
It is likely that production time may be further reduced if strongly halophilic, proteolytic, and thermophilic Bacillus and Pediococcus species used in the laboratory can be used in production. ❋ Unknown (1992)
Souring is carried out at 48 to 50 degrees Centigrade, optimum for thermophilic lactobacilli which then complete the souring in front for 8 to 16 hours. ❋ Unknown (1984)
In stressing productivity as a major problem, he highlighted some of the major bottle-necks, e.g., temperature fluctuations, choice of suitable substrates, concomitant gases occurring with CH4 generation, and efficiency of digestion of raw materials, etc. C.G. Hedn pointed out the need for thermophilic digestion as a means of destroying pathogens. ❋ Unknown (1983)
Another example is Clostridium thermocellulum, a thermophilic anaerobe that can utilize cellulose (MIT process). ❋ Unknown (1983)
