Non-Pathogenic: Rhodospirillum bacteria are not typically pathogenic to humans. They are part of the natural microbial diversity in various environments, including soil and aquatic ecosystems.
Photosynthetic Properties: Rhodospirillum bacteria are capable of anoxygenic photosynthesis, meaning they can use light energy to produce cellular energy without generating oxygen as a byproduct. They contain pigments, such as bacteriochlorophylls, which enable them to harvest light energy.
Biotechnological Applications: The unique metabolic capabilities of Rhodospirillum bacteria make them interesting for certain biotechnological applications. They have been studied for their potential use in wastewater treatment, biohydrogen production, and other environmental and energy-related processes.
Research Interest: Rhodospirillum and other purple non-sulfur bacteria are subjects of research in fields such as microbiology, environmental science, and bioenergy. Understanding their metabolic processes and interactions with the environment has implications for various scientific and technological applications.

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
