| anaerobic | 1. Lacking molecular oxygen. 2. Growing, living or occurring in the absence of molecular oxygen, pertaining to an anaerobe. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| anaerobic bacteria | Bacteria which thrive in the absence of oxygen. (27 Sep 1997) |
| anaerobic digester | This is a bioreactor foranaerobically digesting sewage-laced wastewater.In it, anaerobic bacteriaproduce a mix of methane and carbon dioxide, asmuch as 90% of the chemical energy in the wastewater can be converted to methane, which is typically exhausted continuously and collected for useas a fuel or for a reagent for other industrial chemical reactions. (09 Oct 1997) |
| anaerobic digestion | A biochemical process by which organic matter is decomposed by bacteria in the absence of oxygen, producing methane and other byproducts. (05 Dec 1998) |
| anaerobic respiration | Respiration under anaerobic conditions. The terminal electron acceptor, instead of oxygen in the case of regular respiration, can be: carbon dioxide, Fe2+, fumarate, nitrate, nitrite, nitrous oxide, sulphur, sulphate, etc. Note that anaerobic respiration still uses the electron transport chain to dump the electron while fermentation does not. (09 Oct 1997) |
| anaerobic threshold | The oxygen consumption level above which aerobic energy production is supplemented by anaerobic mechanisms during exercise, resulting in a sustained increase in lactate concentration and metabolic acidosis. The anaerobic threshold is affected by factors that modify oxygen delivery to the tissues; it is low in patients with heart disease. Methods of measurement include direct measure of lactate concentration, direct measurement of bicarbonate concentration, and gas exchange measurements. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gram-negative anaerobic bacteria | <microbiology> A large group of anaerobic bacteria which show up as pink (negative) when treated by the gram-staining method. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gram-negative anaerobic cocci | <microbiology> A group of anaerobic coccoid bacteria that show up as pink (negative) when treated by the gram-staining method. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gram-negative anaerobic straight, curved, and helical rods | <microbiology> A group of anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria that show up as pink (negative) when treated by the gram-staining method. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gram-negative facultatively anaerobic rods | <microbiology> A large group of facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria that show up as pink (negative) when treated by the gram-staining method. (12 Dec 1998) |
| acetic fermentation | <biochemistry> A type of fermentation conducted by certain microbes in which organic materials are broken down into acetic acid to generate ATP for energy. (09 Oct 1997) |
| acetone-butanol fermentation | <biochemistry, microbiology> The formation of acetone and butanol through the fermentation of glucose by Clostridium acetobutylicum. However, most industrial plants make acetone and butanol through synthetic processes that use petrochemicals. (06 May 1997) |
| acidogenic fermentation | <biochemistry, microbiology> Any fermentation that produces a weak acid, such as lactic acid. (06 May 1997) |
| adsorption fermentation | <microbiology> (extractive fermentation) A fermentation technique in which products of the fermentation are removed from the broth by adsorption onto materials such as carbon or polymers. Generally, the preferred method of doing this is to circulate the fermenting broth through the adsorbent substrate, because the fermentation products are often toxic to the microbes. (06 May 1997) |
| alcoholic fermentation | The anaerobic formation of ethanol and CO2 from d-glucose. Compare: Gay-Lussac's equation. (05 Mar 2000) |
