Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme
  • Oxygen

William C. Ghiorse mainly focuses on Bacteria, Environmental chemistry, Biochemistry, Microbiology and Manganese. His research in the fields of Microorganism, Heterotroph and Peptidoglycan overlaps with other disciplines such as Mycolic acid. The study incorporates disciplines such as Water table, Pollution, Aquifer and Pollutant in addition to Environmental chemistry.

As part of his studies on Biochemistry, he often connects relevant areas like Leptothrix discophora. His research in Microbiology focuses on subjects like Ribosomal DNA, which are connected to Pseudomonas putida, Ribosomal RNA, 16S ribosomal RNA and Plasmid. His study looks at the relationship between Manganese and fields such as Inorganic chemistry, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His most cited work include:

  • Evaluation and Optimization of DNA Extraction and Purification Procedures for Soil and Sediment Samples (800 citations)
  • Biology of Iron-and Manganese-Depositing Bacteria (461 citations)
  • Microbial ecology of the terrestrial subsurface. (378 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Environmental chemistry, Bacteria, Biochemistry, Leptothrix discophora and Microbiology. His Environmental chemistry research integrates issues from Microorganism, Soil water, Mineralization and Biodegradation. His research integrates issues of Ultrastructure, Staining and Strain in his study of Biochemistry.

William C. Ghiorse interconnects Inorganic chemistry and Leptothrix in the investigation of issues within Leptothrix discophora. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Microbiology, Plasmid is strongly linked to Ribosomal DNA. His study looks at the relationship between Sodium dodecyl sulfate and topics such as Homogenization, which overlap with DNA extraction.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (27.27%)
  • Bacteria (19.19%)
  • Biochemistry (18.18%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2002-2020)?

  • Cryptosporidium parvum (15.15%)
  • Bacteria (19.19%)
  • Biofilm (10.10%)

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

William C. Ghiorse mainly investigates Cryptosporidium parvum, Bacteria, Biofilm, Groundwater and Copper. Pseudomonas putida is the focus of his Bacteria research. His work on Vadose zone as part of general Groundwater research is frequently linked to Macropore, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His Copper research focuses on subjects like Inorganic chemistry, which are linked to Leptothrix discophora, Extracellular, Siderophore and Gene expression. His Leptothrix discophora study combines topics in areas such as Plasmid and Leptothrix. His work deals with themes such as Environmental chemistry, Soil science and Preferential flow, which intersect with Sink.

Between 2002 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Polaromonas naphthalenivorans sp. nov., a naphthalene-degrading bacterium from naphthalene-contaminated sediment. (130 citations)
  • A quantitative analysis of DNA extraction and purification from compost. (75 citations)
  • Preferential Flow and Transport of Cryptosporidium parvum Oocysts through the Vadose Zone: Experiments and Modeling (59 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme
  • Oxygen

His main research concerns Biofilm, Metal, Analytical chemistry, Energy source and Transition metal. The study incorporates disciplines such as Copper toxicity and Copper in addition to Biofilm. His Energy source study overlaps with Strain, Mycolic acid, Peptidoglycan, Polaromonas vacuolata and Bacteria.

His Transition metal investigation overlaps with Zinc and Two-photon excitation microscopy.
