Frequent growth of unicellular blue-green alga Aphanothece sp. was observed in medium free of combined nitrogen. Its generation time was 12 h and more than 2 mg of nitrogen was fixed in 25 days. Its growth and nitrogen fixation were comparable to other heterocystous algae. Nitrogen fixation in blue
Polyphysa peniculus was grown in artificial seawater in the presence of arsenate, arsenite, monomethylarsonate and dimethylarsinic acid. The separation and identification of some of the arsenic species produced in the cells as well as in the growth medium were achieved by using hydride generation-ga
The chemolithotroph, Hydrogenomonas eutropha, was tested for its ability to utilize a variety of single nitrogen sources during growth in an atmosphere of Hz-Oz-C02. The present data show that H . eutropha can utilize the nitrogen from many, but not all, amino acids, several sulfur-containing amino
