Abstract: A method of producing amino acids by fermentation in a bioreactor, wherein the bioreactor includes methanogenic microorganisms in a fermentation broth, the method including at least the step of feeding a gaseous carbon source including carbon dioxide and/or carbon monoxide, a nitrogen source including nitrogen gas and a sulfur source to the bioreactor under conditions such that the methanogenic microorganisms produce the amino acids, wherein the fermentation broth includes ammonium at a concentration of 0.1 mmol/L to 200 mmol/L is disclosed. Preferred methanogenic microorganisms are e.g. archaea selected from Methanothermobacter, Methanothermococcus and Methanococcus.

Preferred methanogenic microorganisms are e.g. archaea selected from Methanothermobacter, Methanothermococcus and Methanococcus. Also provided is a fermentation broth including methanogenic microorganisms, ammonium at a concentration of at least 0.1 mmol/L, wherein the tungstate concentration in the fermentation broth is below 0.1 ?mol/L, and a bioreactor including the same.

Abstract: A bearing (1) is provided, comprising an inner sleeve (6), an outer sleeve (2), and an elastomer body (24), which resiliently interconnects the inner sleeve (6) and the outer sleeve (2), wherein the outer sleeve (2) comprises a circumferential portion (8) and at least one deformation portion (10) that is recessed radially inwards from the circumferential portion (8), and wherein the deformation portion (10) comprises a support-surface portion (12) arranged so as to be offset radially inwards relative to the circumferential portion (8) of the outer sleeve (2), wherein the support-surface portion (12) extends substantially perpendicularly to the radial direction (Ra). A method for producing a bearing is also provided.
