Rhodobacter

The remarkable bacteria strain that self-recruits to the BioBoost Nest

THE METHOD: UNIVERSITY STUDY

  • Florida Gulf Coast University swab tested BioBoost Nest media
  • 40 bacterial strains were identified on the unit
  • Underwater photos confirm BioBoost Nest hosts microbial colonies known as biofilm

“The biofilm on the BioBoost has tremendously grown and is likely to continue.”

Dr. Serge Thomas, PhD, Program Director of FGCU

The Discovery: Rhodobacter

  • One powerhouse strain, Rhodobacter, accounted for a large percentage of bacteria present
  • Rhodobacter is effective in consuming organic matter and has been proven successful in wastewater treatment
  • Rhodobactor is naturally occurring in the pond environment and has an ability to migrate to the BioBoost Nest and proliferate

“(Rhodobacter) was the most important and exciting finding of the study.”

Dr. Serge Thomas, PhD, Program Director of FGCU

A dynamic population of beneficial bacteria breaks down and consumes the excess nutrients that contribute to persistent water problems like algae blooms, foul odor and clarity issues.
