Universite de Provence, CNRS - ORSTOM. Organized by the Federation of European Microbiological Societies and the French Society for Microbiology. Scope of the symposium: the symposium will focus on basic aspects of the interspecies hydrogen transfer phenomenon.... The main topics will include: 1- Environmental impact of interspecies hydrogen transfer. 2- Isolation and identification of strict anaerobes involved in interspecies hydrogen transfer 3- Physiology of these organisms growing in pure or mixed culture 4- Struggle for energy under anaerobic natural conditions 5- Biochemistry od hydrogenases and electron carriers of stricht anaerobes. Interaction studies between redox proteins 6- Genetics of strict anaerobes involved in interspecies hydrogen transfer Organizing Committee: Pr Jean-Pierre BELAICH, Universite de Provence-CNRS Marseille Dr Mireille BRUSCHI, CNRS Marseille Dr Jean-Louis GARCIA, ORSTOM Marseille
