摘要: Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) by bacteria. The CO generated in soil and lower layers atmosphere is oxidized to 2 locally biological agents, principally microbes. added significant amounts through incomplete combustion fossil fuels atmospheric reactions. Bacteria that oxidize may be subdivided according their ability use as an energy source for growth (utilitarian oxidation) or based on whether process a gratuitous one (nonutilitarian resulting from acceptance pseudosubstrate enzyme system evolved catalyze another process. inhibitory all aerobic respiratory organisms. Even carboxydobacteria, high concentrations reduce rate cellular yield, thereby indicating tolerance necessary part at higher concentrations. Phototrophic bacteria remove formed during degradation photosynthetic pigments decaying vegetative materials anaerobic sediments. also applications bacterial oxidation.
