| bacillus stamsii sp. nov., a facultatively anaerobic sugar degrader that is numerically dominant in freshwater lake sediment. | a novel type of anaerobic bacteria was previously isolated from profundal lake sediment by direct dilution of the sediment in mineral agar medium containing glucose and a background lawn of methanospirillum hungatei as a syntrophic partner. the isolated bacteria grouped with aerobic bacillus spp. according to their 16s rrna gene sequence, and the most closely related species is bacillus thioparans. fermentative growth of the novel strain with glucose was possible only in the presence of syntroph ... | 2015 | 26194116 |
| taxonomic description and genome sequence of bacillus campisalis sp. nov., a member of the genus bacillus isolated from a solar saltern. | the taxonomic position of a gram-stain positive bacterium isolated from a solar saltern sample collected from kanyakumari, coastal region of the bay of bengal, india, was analysed by using a polyphasic approach. the isolated strain, designated sa2-6t, had phenotypic characteristics that matched those of the genus bacillus. the 16s rrna gene sequence (1493 bases) of the novel strain was compared with those of previously studied bacillus type strains and confirmed that the strain belongs to the ge ... | 2015 | 26296567 |
| cadmium and zinc removal from aqueous solutions by bacillus jeotgali: ph, salinity and temperature effects. | effects of ph, salinity and temperature on biosorption of cd and zn by bacteria bacillus jeotgali strain u3 were evaluated in batch experiments. traditional and subsequent addition methods (sam) were used to carry out the bioassays. sorption of metals was higher when ph or temperature was increased, or when salinity was reduced. the langmuir isotherm better fit the biosorption data for cd, while the freundlich model fitted better for zn biosorption. a comparison with similar biosorbents suggeste ... | 2008 | 17697774 |
| bacillus foraminis sp. nov., isolated from a non-saline alkaline groundwater. | a low-g+c-content gram-positive bacterium, designated cv53t, phylogenetically related to species of the genus bacillus, was isolated from a highly alkaline non-saline groundwater environment (ph 11.4). this organism comprised rod-shaped cells, was aerobic, did not display spore formation, was catalase- and oxidase-negative, had an optimum growth temperature of 40 degrees c and had an optimum ph of approximately 7.0-8.5. optimal growth was observed in the absence of nacl, but growth did occur at ... | 2006 | 17082392 |
| degradation of ferric chelate of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid by bacterium isolated from deep-sea stalked barnacle. | twenty strains of marine bacteria that degrade ferric chelate of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (fe-edta) were isolated from among 117 strains collected from a marine environment. among them strain 02-n-2, which was isolated from stalked barnacle collected from the deep sea in the indian ocean, had the highest fe-edta degradation ability and was selected for further study. the strain showed high fe-edta degradation ability at different seawater concentrations. in addition, the intact cells of t ... | 2005 | 15747087 |
| bacillus jeotgali sp. nov., isolated from jeotgal, korean traditional fermented seafood. | two gram-variable, rod-shaped, endospore-forming bacterial strains, which are motile with peritrichous flagella, were isolated from a korean traditional fermented seafood, jeotgal. the two isolates (strains ykj-1ot and ykj-11) were proven to be members of the same species on the basis of the results of phenotypic and phylogenetic analyses and dna relatedness. strains ykj-10t and ykj-11 were characterized by having cell wall peptidoglycan based on meso-diaminopimelic acid, mk-7 as the predominant ... | 2001 | 11411677 |
| isolation and characterization of bacillus thioparus sp. nov., chemolithoautotrophic, thiosulfate-oxidizing bacterium. | a novel bacterium, strain bmp-1(t), was isolated from a continuous wastewater treatment culture system operating with a bacterial consortium. cells of the isolate were gram-variable, aerobic, moderately halotolerant, motile and endospore-forming rods. strain bmp-1(t) grew chemolithoautotrophically by oxidation of thiosulfate to sulfate with a growth yield of 1.07 g protein mol(-1) of thiosulfate consumed. dna g+c content was 43.8 mol%. its cell wall had peptidoglycan based on m-diaminopimelic ac ... | 2007 | 17451444 |
| bacillus selenatarsenatis sp. nov., a selenate- and arsenate-reducing bacterium isolated from the effluent drain of a glass-manufacturing plant. | a facultatively anaerobic, selenate- and arsenate-reducing bacterium, designated strain sf-1(t), was isolated from a selenium-contaminated sediment obtained from an effluent drain of a glass-manufacturing plant in japan. the bacterium stained gram-positive and was a motile, spore-forming rod capable of respiring with selenate, arsenate and nitrate as terminal electron acceptors. the major cellular fatty acids of the strain were iso-c(15 : 0), iso-c(17 : 1)omega10c and c(16 : 1)omega7c alcohol. t ... | 2007 | 17473259 |
| bacillus pocheonensis sp. nov., a moderately halotolerant, aerobic bacterium isolated from soil of a ginseng field. | a gram-positive, non-motile, endospore-forming bacterial strain, designated gsoil 420t, was isolated from soil of a ginseng field in pocheon province, south korea, and was characterized, using a polyphasic approach, in order to determine its taxonomic position. the novel isolate consisted of strictly aerobic, rod-shaped cells and was able to grow in medium supplemented with up to 12% nacl at 25 degrees c and ph 6.5-7.0. comparative 16s rrna gene sequence analysis showed that strain gsoil 420t fe ... | 2007 | 17978214 |
