Maritime litter and sewage contamination at Cramond Beach Edinburgh — A comparative study (1998)
Journal Article
Velander, K. A., & Mocogni, M. (1998). Maritime litter and sewage contamination at Cramond Beach Edinburgh — A comparative study. Marine Pollution Bulletin, 36(5), 385-389. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0025-326X%2897%2900204-X

Beach litter was monitored between April and October 1994 at Cramond Beach, Edinburgh. When compared with data collected over the same period in 1984, it was found that overall there was a twofold increase in litter, although the proportion of items...

Activated sludge foaming: The true extent of actinomycete diversity (1998)
Journal Article
Goodfellow, M., Stainsby, F., Davenport, R., Chun, J., & Curtis, T. (1998). Activated sludge foaming: The true extent of actinomycete diversity. Water Science and Technology, 37(4-5), 511-519. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0273-1223%2898%2900153-x

Isolates from activated sludge foam were provisionally assigned to the genera Gordona and Tsukamurella on the basis of colony morphology and pigmentation. Representatives of the first group were compared with marker strains of validly described speci... Read More about Activated sludge foaming: The true extent of actinomycete diversity.

Reliable and accurate sequencing of lambda, cosmid and P1 DNAs using modified dye terminator reaction parameters (1998)
Journal Article
Harvey, R. J., Harder, S., & Darlison, M. G. (1998). Reliable and accurate sequencing of lambda, cosmid and P1 DNAs using modified dye terminator reaction parameters. Technical tips online, 3(1), 150-152. https://doi.org/10.1016/S1366-2120%2808%2970126-0

Many laboratories still find the direct sequencing of large DNA templates (i.e. lambda, cosmid and bacteriophage P1 clones) problematic. To date, only limited amounts of sequence information, which in many cases is of poor quality, can be generated f...

Molecular ecology and evolution of Streptococcus thermophilus Bacteriophages - a review. (1998)
Journal Article
Brüssow, H., Bruttin, A., Desiere, F., Lucchini, S., & Foley, S. (1998). Molecular ecology and evolution of Streptococcus thermophilus Bacteriophages - a review. Virus Genes, 16, 95-109. https://doi.org/10.1023/A%3A1007957911848

Bacteriophages attacking Streptococcus thermophilus, a lactic acid bacterium used in milk
fermentation, are a threat to the dairy industry. These small isometric-headed phages possess double-stranded
DNA genomes of 31 to 45 kb. Yoghurt-derived phag... Read More about Molecular ecology and evolution of Streptococcus thermophilus Bacteriophages - a review..
