Question
Chapter 1.11, Problem 2MQ
Summary Introduction
Sergei Winogradsky is a Russian microbiologist interested in soil and water bacterial diversity. He isolated several bacteria from natural sources, particularly bacteria from sulfur and nitrite compounds. He studied Beggiatoa bacteria, present in the marine sediments and designed specific enrichment media for its growth. He checked the chemical transformations with this bacteria and proposed the important concept called Chemolithotrophy.
