Which anaerobic bacteria was used by engelmann in his experiment?

the aerobic bacteria showed him the amount of oxygen produced since aerobic requires oxygen. the more bacteria produced, the more oxygen there had to have been, which means photosynthesis occurred the fastest where there was the greatest amount of bacteria.

What is an anaerobic bacteria culture?
a method used to grow anaerobes from a clinical specimen.
How are latic acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentatkon?
Lactid acid fermentation is anaerobic as it is utilized in situations of low oxygen and most commonly used by anaerobic bacteria
What is the purpose for pour plate?
The purpose of a pour plate is to exam the bacteria in milk. It is used to find isolated bacteria colonies under anaerobic and aerobic environments.
What are the commonly used microbial bacteria in biotechnology?
There are several bacteria used in biotechnology depending on the purpose of the experiment. However if we have to pick one up we have to go for Escherichia coli.
Did Louis Pasteur used a controlled experiment to show that bacteria arise from spontaneous generation?
yes he did

The properties and purposes of thioglycollate medium?
A thioglycollate medium is used for culturing anaerobic bacteria.
What are the three respiratory methods used by bacteria?
1. Aerobic - with oxygen 2. Anaerobic - without oxygen 3. Facultative Anaerobic - with or without oxygen
What did Theodor W. Engelmann discover?
Theodor W. Engelmann discovered through a now classic experiment that the wavelengths of light have an affect on photosynthesis, more specifically that violet-blue and red portions of the visible spectrum are most effective in driving photosynthesis.He discovered this by illuminating a filamentous alga with light shone through a prism. This exposed segments of the alga to different wavelengths. Engelmann then used aerobic bacteria to determine which segments of the alga produced the most oxygen and thus photosynthesized the most as the bacteria would concentrate around that area. He noticed that they concentrated mostly around the violet-blue portions and towards the red portions and was thus able to conclude that these sections were most effective in photosynthesis. Not bad for an experiment done in 1883!

Clindamycin
How is anaerobic respiration in bacteria used in yogurt making?
A fermentation process is used to make yogurt. Milk contains the sugar lactose; and some bacteria will ferment lactose to produce lactic acid. the lactic acid clots the milk protein, and give the yogurt its sour taste. Fermentation is just another name for anaerobic respiration.
