| turicibacter sanguinis gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel anaerobic, gram-positive bacterium. | an unknown, strictly anaerobic, gram-positive, rod-shaped bacterium (strain mol361t) was isolated from a blood culture of a febrile patient with acute appendicitis and characterized using phenotypic and molecular methods. fatty acid analysis and biochemical examination indicated that the isolate most closely resembles members of the gram-positive bacteria with low dna g+c content. 16s rdna sequencing revealed a relatively high overall similarity (97%) to an uncultured bacterium, but these two st ... | 2002 | 12148638 |
| draft genome sequence of turicibacter sanguinis pc909, isolated from human feces. | while the microbiota resident in the human gut is now known to provide a range of functions relevant to host health, many of the microbial members of the community have not yet been cultured or are represented by a limited number of isolates. we describe here the draft genome sequence of turicibacter sanguinis pc909, isolated from a pooled healthy human fecal sample as part of the australian human gut microbiome project. | 2010 | 21183674 |
| characterization of microbial community in the leachate associated with the decomposition of entombed pigs. | foot and mouth disease (fmd) is one of the acute infectious diseases in hoofed and even-toed mammals, including pigs, and it occurs via acute infection by aphthovirus. when fmd is suspected, animals around the location of origin are typically slaughtered and buried. other methods such as rendering, composting, and incineration have not been verified in practice in korea. after the fmd incident, the regular monitoring of the microbial community is required, as microorganisms greatly modify the ch ... | 2012 | 23075782 |
| production of a bioflocculant from methanol wastewater and its application in arsenite removal. | a novel bioflocculant (mbf83) prepared using methanol wastewater as nutrient resource was systematically investigated in the study. the optimal conditions for bioflocculant production were determined to be an inoculum size of 8.6%, initial ph of 7.5, and a methanol concentration of 100.8mgl(-1). an mbf83 of 4.61gl(-1) was achieved as the maximum yield. mbf83 primarily comprised polysaccharide (74.1%) and protein (24.2%). the biopolymer, which was found to be safe in zebrafish in toxicity studies ... | 2015 | 26291913 |
