Swarming cells of the sulfide-oxidizing bacterium Thiovulum majus form bands and show bioconvective patterns of swimming when placed in vessels containing H2S/O2 interfaces. Measurements of swimming velocities with video microscopic recordings under such conditions showed mean cell speeds as high as 615 microns s-1, unprecedented in bacteria.
硫化物氧化细菌大硫螺旋菌的游动细胞形成条带,当置于含有硫化氢/氧气界面的容器中时,会呈现生物对流的游动模式。在这种条件下,通过视频显微镜记录对游动速度进行测量,结果显示细胞平均速度高达615微米/秒,这在细菌中是前所未有的。
