How Can the Same Diet Affect People Differently? The Microbiome and Methane May be Why Meet methanogens — gut microbes that turn fiber into methane and extra energy. But not everyone has them.

However, methanogens seem to be a potential candidate for what life on Mars might look like — they produce methane and live in harsh, anaerobic environments, such as the guts of animals, in deep ...

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 ...

Beutler & Son Rodeo Company have lost nearly 70 horses used in their rodeo stock contracting business after feed containing monensin was mistakenly used.

Monensin is an FDA-approved drug for use in certain animal feeds. However, if the feed contains excessive amounts of the drug, the feed can cause monensin toxicity in a number of animal species ...

Microbiologists show that methanogenic archaea do not always need to form methane to survive. It is possible to bypass methanogenesis with the seemingly simpler and more environmentally friendly ...

Researchers have identified an 1,800-mile-wide plain in the northern hemisphere of Mars that may currently host alien life. Microbial life could, in theory, lurk beneath the plain's surface.

A new study explains how a methanogenic microbe reassembles a metabolic pathway piece by piece to transform sulfate into a cellular building block.

The methanogen studied here converted one of these dissimilatory enzymes into an assimilatory one. “A simple, yet highly effective strategy and most likely the reason why this methanogen is able ...

Feed delivered to ranch where dozens of horses died contained monensin, preliminary tests show Tropical Storm Sara's Path Makes 'Remarkable Change' 10 Porsche Models You Should Buy Used Nick ...
