Hungate also made adaptations to culture methanogens, the strictest of anaerobes, reported in 1969. Others, such as Spears and Freter in 1967, ...

Kral, Kozup and Gibson cultured three different species of methanogens on five different substrates — clay, sand, gravel, basalt and Mars soil stimulant — in sealed anaerobic culture tubes ...

And very interestingly, we found that actually that kangaroo culture took over the function of the methanogens and continuously made acetic acid instead of methane, for up to three months.

A research team has shown that methanogens, micro-organisms ubiquitous in low-oxygen environments like aquifers, soil and even permafrost, can propel their growth by dissolving calcium carbonate ...

Hydrogenotrophic methanogens, such as M. thermolithotrophicus, have the amazing ability to convert dihydrogen (H 2, for example artificially produced from renewable energy) and carbon dioxide (CO ...

New research suggests that methanogens -- among the simplest and oldest organisms on Earth -- could survive on Mars. Methanogens, microorganisms in the domain Archaea, use hydrogen as their energy ...
