Researchers analyzed the gene sequences, proteins expressed and physiology of 10 strains of bioremediation microbes called Shewanella. Results showed surprising diversity not seen using ...

Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 (formerly Shewanella ... oneidensis has been proposed for bioremediation of anoxic polluted sites because the redox potentials of iron and manganese ions as terminal ...

Shewanella oneidensis is a microbe that can convert soluble uranium, a groundwater-contamination threat at nuclear waste sites, to solid uraninite that sticks to soil, preventing contamination ...

Bioremediation of heavy metals Bioremediation is the use of either naturally-occurring or deliberately-introduced organisms to consume and break down environmental pollutants and clean up a ...

The experiment centers on a batch of microbes called Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, which arrived at the station in early July. Here on Earth, Shewanella has an unusual skill: It can produce electricity.

It took him a few years, but he found it—Shewanella oneidensis, a bacterium that lives off of a poisonous heavy metal, manganese. Powell writes exactly why Shewanella is so odd: For most living ...

Doctors diagnosed him with a Shewanella algae infection, a bacterium that thrives in brackish water. “Everyone worries about sharks in the water, and what got me was this tiny micro-organism ...
