| cellulomonas xylanilytica sp. nov., a cellulolytic and xylanolytic bacterium isolated from a decayed elm tree. | a gram-positive, aerobic, non-motile bacterium was isolated from a decayed elm tree. phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rdna sequences revealed 99.0 % similarity to cellulomonas humilata. chemotaxonomic data that were determined for this isolate included cell-wall composition, fatty acid profiles and polar lipids; the results supported the placement of strain xil11(t) in the genus cellulomonas. the dna g+c content was 73 mol%. the results of dna-dna hybridization with c. humilata atcc 25174(t), ... | 2004 | 15023971 |
| cellulomonas terrae sp. nov., a cellulolytic and xylanolytic bacterium isolated from soil. | a bacterial strain (db5(t)), with polysaccharide-degrading activities, was isolated from garden soil in daejeon, republic of korea. the cells were gram-positive, aerobic or facultatively anaerobic, non-motile straight rods. phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rrna gene sequences showed that this strain belongs to the genus cellulomonas and that it is most closely related to cellulomonas xylanilytica lmg 21723(t) and cellulomonas humilata atcc 25174(t) (98.0 and 97.9% similarity, respectively). ch ... | 2005 | 16014505 |
| Characterization of some efficient cellulase producing bacteria isolated from paper mill sludges and organic fertilizers. | The wide variety of bacteria in the environment permits screening for more efficient cellulases to help overcome current challenges in biofuel production. This study focuses on the isolation of efficient cellulase producing bacteria found in organic fertilizers and paper mill sludges which can be considered for use in large scale biorefining. Pure isolate cultures were screened for cellulase activity. Six isolates: S1, S2, S3, S4, E2, and E4, produced halos greater in diameter than the positive ... | 2011 | 21969070 |
