Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria
  • Organic chemistry

Bernhard Schink mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Bacteria, Fermentation, Environmental chemistry and Ferrous. His Biochemistry research includes themes of Redox, Anaerobic bacteria and Geobacter sulfurreducens. His research integrates issues of Biodegradation and Metabolism in his study of Bacteria.

His Fermentation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Methanogenesis, Stereochemistry, Phloroglucinol and Pelobacter. The concepts of his Environmental chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Microbial biodegradation, Nitrate and Denitrifying bacteria. His Ferrous research integrates issues from Iron cycle, Inorganic chemistry, Ferric, Mineralogy and Iron bacteria.

His most cited work include:

  • Energetics of syntrophic cooperation in methanogenic degradation. (1429 citations)
  • Anaerobic, Nitrate-Dependent Microbial Oxidation of Ferrous Iron (654 citations)
  • Ferrous iron oxidation by anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria (548 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Bernhard Schink mostly deals with Biochemistry, Bacteria, Fermentation, Organic chemistry and Environmental chemistry. His study looks at the intersection of Biochemistry and topics like Anaerobic bacteria with Clostridium. His Bacteria study also includes

  • Microbiology, which have a strong connection to 16S ribosomal RNA,
  • Electron acceptor that connect with fields like Redox.

His Fermentation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Formate, Methanogenesis and Stereochemistry. His studies deal with areas such as Ferrous, Profundal zone, Nitrate and Methane as well as Environmental chemistry. The various areas that he examines in his Ferrous study include Inorganic chemistry and Iron cycle.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (46.38%)
  • Bacteria (34.20%)
  • Fermentation (29.28%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Biochemistry (46.38%)
  • Bacteria (34.20%)
  • International code (2.90%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Bernhard Schink mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Bacteria, International code, Environmental chemistry and Enzyme. In general Biochemistry study, his work on Cofactor, Fermentation and Acetone often relates to the realm of Desulfococcus biacutus, thereby connecting several areas of interest. Bernhard Schink interconnects Genome, Gene, Strain and Microbiology in the investigation of issues within Bacteria.

His Environmental chemistry research incorporates elements of Phosphorus and Methanogenesis. His research in Enzyme focuses on subjects like Escherichia coli, which are connected to 3-Hydroxyacyl-CoA Dehydrogenase, NAD+ kinase, Protein subunit and Mutant. His Anaerobic bacteria study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Microbial biodegradation and Organic chemistry.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Life under extreme energy limitation: a synthesis of laboratory- and field-based investigations. (172 citations)
  • Anaerobic methane oxidation coupled to denitrification is the dominant methane sink in a deep lake (135 citations)
  • Anaerobic Microbial Degradation of Hydrocarbons : from Enzymatic Reactions to the Environment (126 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria
  • Organic chemistry

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Environmental chemistry, Bacteria, Anoxic waters and Anaerobic bacteria. His Biochemistry study incorporates themes from Hydrogen and Nitrification. Bernhard Schink has included themes like Profundal zone, Anaerobic oxidation of methane, Methanogenesis and Firmicutes in his Environmental chemistry study.

His work carried out in the field of Bacteria brings together such families of science as Gene, Strain, Microbiology and Enzyme. His Anoxic waters research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Denitrification, Denitrifying bacteria, Methane, Nitrate and Stable-isotope probing. In his work, Phthalic acid, Organic chemistry and Biodegradation is strongly intertwined with Microbial biodegradation, which is a subfield of Anaerobic bacteria.
