Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme
  • Ecology

Harold L. Drake mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Botany, Acetogenesis, Microbiology and Earthworm. His research integrates issues of Clostridium and Nitrate in his study of Biochemistry. His work deals with themes such as Soil classification and Sulfate-reducing bacteria, which intersect with Botany.

His Acetogenesis research includes elements of Acetogen and Microbial metabolism. While the research belongs to areas of Microbiology, he spends his time largely on the problem of Bacteria, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Nitrite. His Earthworm research incorporates themes from Microorganism, Soil microbiology and Denitrifying bacteria.

His most cited work include:

  • Old Acetogens, New Light (339 citations)
  • As the worm turns: the earthworm gut as a transient habitat for soil microbial biomes. (247 citations)
  • Hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis by moderately acid-tolerant methanogens of a methane-emitting acidic peat. (238 citations)

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

Harold L. Drake mostly deals with Botany, Biochemistry, Acetogenesis, Earthworm and Environmental chemistry. The Botany study combines topics in areas such as Lumbricidae, Soil water, Soil microbiology, Anoxic waters and Plant litter. His study in Biochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Clostridium and Bacteria.

Harold L. Drake has included themes like Formate, Sporomusa and Metabolism in his Acetogenesis study. His Earthworm research integrates issues from Microorganism and Denitrifying bacteria. In his research on the topic of Environmental chemistry, Sulfate is strongly related with Nitrate.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (25.95%)
  • Biochemistry (24.68%)
  • Acetogenesis (20.25%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Criminology (5.70%)
  • Racism (5.70%)
  • Police brutality (5.70%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Criminology, Racism, Police brutality, GEORGE and Earthworm. His Earthworm research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Fermentation, Nutrient and Water content. In his study, Lachnospiraceae is strongly linked to RNA, which falls under the umbrella field of Fermentation.

His Water content research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Environmental chemistry, Total organic carbon, Botany, Gut bacteria and Species richness. His research investigates the connection between Lumbricus terrestris and topics such as Food science that intersect with problems in Gut flora and Microorganism. Lyase activity, Propionate, Bacteria, Biochemistry and Digestion are fields of study that overlap with his Aeromonadaceae research.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Protein- and RNA-Enhanced Fermentation by Gut Microbiota of the Earthworm Lumbricus terrestris (14 citations)
  • The ASM Journals Committee Values the Contributions of Black Microbiologists. (11 citations)
  • The ASM Journals Committee Values the Contributions of Black Microbiologists (8 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme
  • Ecology

His primary scientific interests are in Fermentation, Criminology, Racism, Police brutality and Lumbricus terrestris. His Fermentation study incorporates themes from RNA and Lachnospiraceae. His RNA study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Obligate anaerobe, Digestion, Lysis and Soil microbiology.

His study with Lumbricus terrestris involves better knowledge in Earthworm. The various areas that he examines in his Microorganism study include Proteobacteria, Microcosm, Nutrient and Ecosystem. Aeromonadaceae is intertwined with Polysaccharide, Microbial metabolism, Biochemistry, Bacteria and Propionate in his study.
