Figure Legend Snippet: Survival of eight type strains of Bacillus species in rice husk biochar. A bacterial suspension was obtained by pre-culturing bacteria on a nutrient agar plate for 1 day ( a , b ), 2 days ( c , d ), or 7 days ( e , f ), followed by suspension in sterile water. Each inoculum was either nonheat-treated (NHT) ( a , c , and e ) or heat-treated (HT) at 80 °C for 1 h ( b , d , and f ) and inoculated onto biochar. The day of bacterial inoculation was designated day 0. The bacterial density in the biochar was determined after incubation at 28 °C for 7 days ( n = 3). N.D. indicates no detection. Error bar indicates standard error. Asterisks indicate significant difference ( P < 0.05) between 0 and 7 days according to t -test, and n.s. indicates no significant difference
Techniques Used: Suspension, Bacteria, Sterility, Incubation
Figure Legend Snippet: Effects of biochar washing on bacterial survival of eight type strains of Bacillus species. A bacterial suspension was obtained by pre-culturing bacteria in a nutrient agar plate for 1 day. The bacterial density in the inoculum of nonheat-treated (NHT) and heat-treated (HT) suspensions was determined in advance. The NHT bacterial suspension was inoculated onto unwashed biochar ( a ) or biochar after washing with reverse osmosis water ( b ). The day of bacterial inoculation was designated day 0. Survival rates ( c ) were calculated using the following formula: survival rate (%) = ( A / B ) × 100, where A is the bacterial density at 7 days and B is the bacterial density under NHT conditions at day 0. The bacterial density in the biochar was determined after incubation at 28 °C for 7 days ( n = 3). N.D. indicates no detection. Error bar indicates standard error. Survival rates were arcsine-transformed before performing statistical tests. Different letters indicate significant differences ( P < 0.05) according to the Tukey–Kramer test. Asterisks indicate significant difference ( P < 0.05) between unwashed and washed biochar according to t -test, and n.s. indicates no significant difference
Techniques Used: Suspension, Bacteria, Incubation, Transformation Assay
Figure Legend Snippet: Survival of eight type strains of Bacillus strains in biochar water extract. A bacterial suspension was obtained by pre-culturing bacteria in a nutrient agar plate for 1 day ( a – g ) or 7 days (i–p), followed by suspension in sterile water. The bacterial density in the inoculum of nonheat-treated (NHT) and heat-treated (HT) suspensions was determined in advance. The NHT bacterial suspension was inoculated in sterile water (W1, pH 6.7), high-pH sterile water (W2, pH 10.2), and biochar water extracts (biochar: water [w/v] = 0.5:10 [Ex1, pH 9.8] or 1:10 [Ex2, pH 10.2]). The day of bacterial inoculation was designated day 0. The bacterial density in the biochar was determined after incubation at 28 °C for 7 days ( n = 3).

Figure Legend Snippet: Long-term changes in bacterial density ( a ) and survival rate ( b ) of eight type strains of Bacillus strain in biochar. A bacterial suspension was obtained by pre-culturing bacteria in a nutrient agar plate for over 7 days, followed by suspension in sterile water. The bacterial density in the inoculum of nonheat-treated (NHT) and heat-treated (HT) suspensions was determined in advance. The HT bacterial suspension was inoculated onto unwashed biochar. The day of bacterial inoculation was designated day 0. The bacterial density in the biochar was determined after incubation at 25 °C for 2, 5, and 12 weeks ( n = 6). Survival rates were calculated using the following formula: survival rate (%) = ( A / B ) × 100, where A is the bacterial density at 2, 5, or 12 weeks and B is the bacterial density under NHT conditions at day 0. Error bar indicates standard error. Asterisks indicate significant differences ( P < 0.05) from bacterial densities of NHT inoculation at day 0 in each Bacillus strain according to Dunnett’s test. Effect modifications ( P < 0.001) in among Bacillus species, periods, and combination of Bacillus species and periods in bacterial densities in the biochar were detected by two-way ANOVA
