Abstract

The effects of two methods of pressurization were examined on a thermophilic archaebacterium ES4. To accomplish this, a high-pressure reactor system was developed suitable for simultaneous hyperbaric and hyrostatic pressurization at elevated temperatures. At 95 degrees centigrade with 500 atm, the growth rate of ES4 was significantly higher under hydrostatic pressurization. Elevating the temperature also showed higher growth in the hydrostatic system. The system can be useful in assessing the effects of pressure and other parameters on the growth of deep-sea thermophiles.
