Bacteria single-celled

Bacteria Single-celled microorganisms that live in soil, water, organic matter, or the bodies of plants and animals. Many cause disease.

Bacteria Single-celled organisms that multiply by cell division and can cause disease in humans, plants, or animals. Examples include anthrax, cholera, plague, tularemia, and Q fever. 

Bacteria - Single-celled organisms, free-living or parasitic, that break down the wastes and bodies of dead organisms, making their components available for reuse by other organisms.

Bacteria. Single-celled microorganisms that lack chlorophyll. Some bacteria are capable of causing human, animal, or plant diseases others are essential in pollution control because they break down organic matter on the air and in the water. 

Simple life forms, such as bacteria, consist of single cells, whereas, at the other extreme, complex life forms such as animals, contain many types of cell, each having a specific function (cells in eyes, limbs, stomach, etc.). 

Loop reactors are particularly suitable as bioreactors to produce, for example, single-cell protein (96). In this process, single yeast or bacteria ceUs feeding on methanol multiply in aqueous culture broths to form high value biomass at 35—40°C, 20 kg/m ceU concentrations, and specific growth rates of... 

Bacteria Living organisms, microscopic in size, which usually consist of a single cell. Most bacteria use organic matter for their food and produce waste products as a result of their life processes. 

Protozoa A group of motile microscopic animals (usually single-celled and aerobic) that sometimes cluster into colonies and often consume bacteria as an energy source. 

Unicellular Single celled organism, such as bacteria. 

Single cell protein, normally called simply SCP, is the term used to describe microbial cells, or proteins from them, which are used as food (food for humans) or feed (food for farm animals or fish). Although the term micro-organisms covers viruses, bacteria, fungi, algae and protozoa, viruses and protozoa are not considered suitable for SCP production. 

The easiest cells to grow are microbes that live independently in their natural environment. These include bacteria, yeasts, and molds. The hardest are the cells extracted from higher order plants and animals since they normally rely on complex interactions with other cells in the parent organism. Bacteria and yeasts are single-celled. Molds are multicelled but have relatively simple structures and nutritional requirements. 

If a single cell reproduces by binary fission, then the number of bacteria n in any generation will be as follows ... 

The results for bacterial whole-cell analysis described here establish the utility of MALDI-FTMS for mass spectral analysis of whole-cell bacteria and (potentially) more complex single-celled organisms. The use of MALDI-measured accurate mass values combined with mass defect plots is rapid, accurate, and simpler in sample preparation then conventional liquid chromatographic methods for bacterial lipid analysis. Intact cell MALDI-FTMS bacterial lipid characterization complements the use of proteomics profiling by mass spectrometry because it relies on accurate mass measurements of chemical species that are not subject to posttranslational modification or proteolytic degradation. 

Bacteria belong to the class of organisms known as the Schizomycetes (schizo, fission, and mycetes, fungi). The organisms are single-celled and reproduce normally by transverse or binary fission. 

Fig. 10.11 The modified tree of life still has the usual tree-like structure and also confirms that the eukaryotes originally took over mitochondria and chloroplasts from bacteria. It does, however, also show a network of links between the branches. The many interconnections indicate a frequent transfer of genes between unicellular organisms. The modified tree of life is not derived, as had previously been assumed, from a single cell (the hypothetical primeval cell ). Instead, the three main kingdoms are more likely to have developed from a community of primitive cells with different genomes (Doolittle, 2000)...
