  • Iron Uptake in Bacteria with Emphasis on E. coli and Pseudomonas

    Edited by Ranjan Chakraborty, Volkmar Braun, Klaus Hantke, Pierre Cornelis ...
    Series series Chemistry and Material Science (R0)
    Iron is essential for the growth of most bacteria because it serves as a cofactor for vital enzymes and for the components of the electron transport chain. Moreover, Iron plays an important role in bacterial pathogenicity; in fact, the iron transport systems in bacteria works as target for designing novel antibiotics. Because iron is not soluble under aerobic conditions, bacteria have had to find ... Read more

  • Uncultivated Microorganisms

    Edited by Slava S. Epstein ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    In 1898, an Austrian microbiologist Heinrich Winterberg made a curious observation: the number of microbial cells in his samples did not match the number of colonies formed on nutrient media (Winterberg 1898). About a decade later, J. Amann qu- tified this mismatch, which turned out to be surprisingly large, with non-growing cells outnumbering the cultivable ones almost 150 times (Amann 1911). ...
