Journal of Molecular BiologyDetermination of the base composition of deoxyribonucleic acid from its buoyant density in CsCl
1,594 Citations1962Carl L. Schildkraut, Julius Marmur +1 more
A comprehensive study of the buoyant density of DNA as a function of composition has been made and the linear relation previously reported has been confirmed.
NatureA Diagnostic Reaction of Desulphovibrio desulphuricans
137 Citations1959J. R. Postgate
The sulphate-reducing bacteria at present available in pure culture are Desulphovibrio desulphuricans, its aestuarii variant1, the thermophilic Clostridium nigrificans, the new species D. orientis3 and the newspecies D. rubentschickii and its variant anomalous.

Evidence is presented that alanine and lactate are metabolized via pyruvate which breaks down to form acetate and formate, the latter then being metabolized to form CO2.
Journal of BacteriologyBASE COMPOSITION OF DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID OF SULFATE-REDUCING BACTERIA DEDUCED FROM BUOYANT DENSITY MEASUREMENTS IN CESIUM CHLORIDE
70 Citations1964Grady F. Saunders, L. Leon Campbell +1 more
The base composition of the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of sulfate-reducing bacteria was calculated from buoyant density measurements in CsCl and underline the need for a taxonomic revision of this group of microorganisms.
Journal of BacteriologyA NEW SPECIES OF <i>DESULFOVIBRIO</i>
54 Citations1963Jean Le Gall
A new sulfate-reducing bacterium was isolated from a sample of water from the Etang de Berre near Marseilles, France, by use of Starkey's medium free from fixed nitrogen, under an atmosphere of nitrogen, leading to the disappearance of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans, which was present in the first enrichment cultures.

51 Citations1957L. Leon Campbell, Hilmer A. Frank +1 more
The sulfate reducing bacteria are now placed in the genus Desulfovibrio, created by Kluyver and Van Niel (1936) and Starkey (1938), and all of the cultures isolated at 55 C were large, slightlv curved, spore-forming rods, while those isolated at 30 C were typical asporogenous short vibrios.

50 Citations1962Frederick D. Baker, Harold Rudolph Papiska +1 more
Morphological, cultural, and biochemical studies have demonstrated that V. cholinicus is indistinguishable from D. desulfuricans, and should be regarded taxonomically as a strain of D. Desulfurican.
Journal of General MicrobiologyA Sulphate-reducing Bacterium containing Cytochrome c3 but lacking Desulfoviridin
43 Citations1964Jonathan D. Miller, A. M. Saleh
A sulphate-reducing bacterium (strain Norway 4) previously assigned to the species Desulfovibrio desulfuricans has now been found to contain cytochrome c 3 but not desulfoviridin.

An obligately anaerobic sulphate-reducing vibrio isolated from soil from Singapore differs from known species of sulphate, sulphite or thio-sulphate but not tetrathionate.

16 Citations1963J. R. Postgate
Almost every field examined, it was apparent that the organisms were pleomorphic in this preparation, since both rather long rods and coccobacillary forms were observed.

12 Citations1961Mary E. Adams, J. R. Postgate
Enrichment cultures of mesophilic sulphate-reducing bacteria were readily obtained from soils, mud and corrosion products which had been heated to 90°, yet pure cultures of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans were killed by heating to 60° even when absorbed on dried sterilized soil.

The hydrogenase of the Coleman organism was found to be associated with the particulate fraction of cell-free extracts and catalyzed the oxidation of molecular hydrogen in the presence of various electron acceptors.
