Biological growth curves

The ability of the hyperthermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus P2 to grow on organic and inorganic sulfur sources was investigated. A sulfur-free mineral medium was employed with different sources of carbon. The results showed that inorganic sulfur sources display growth curve patterns significantly different from the curves obtained with organic sulfur sources. Combustion of fossil fuels leads to the atmospheric emission of sulfur oxides that contribute to acid rain and air pollution.

Existing tools to model cell growth curves do not offer a flexible integrative approach to manage large datasets and automatically estimate parameters. Due to the increase of experimental time-series from microbiology and oncology, the need for a software that allows researchers to easily organize experimental data and simultaneously extract relevant parameters in an efficient way is crucial.

Bioremediation, which employs the biosorption and or biodegradation potentials of organisms or their attributes, is an effective technology that can be used to accomplish both effective detoxification and volume reduction. Research was carried out to further provide experimental evidences that support the use of biological method which is a better, less expensive and safer means of biosorbing hydrocarbon contaminants.

In section three, we review and assess the evidence on interaction between population and environment focusing on selected natural and environmental resources: land use, water use, local pollution, deforestation and climate change. The following two sections review selected recent macro and micro perspectives. The new macro perspective introduces the environment-income relationship (known also as the Environmental Kuznets Curve) and examines the role of population growth and density in mediating this relationship. ...
