| bacillus infantis sp. nov. and bacillus idriensis sp. nov., isolated from a patient with neonatal sepsis. | two gram-positive bacilli, designated as strains smc 4352-1t and smc 4352-2t, were isolated sequentially from the blood of a newborn child with sepsis. they could not be identified by using conventional clinical microbiological methods. 16s rrna gene sequencing and phylogenetic analysis revealed that both strains belonged to the genus bacillus but clearly diverged from known bacillus species. strain smc 4352-1t and strain smc 4352-2t were found to be closely related to bacillus firmus ncimb 9366 ... | 2006 | 17082387 |
| bacillus purgationiresistans sp. nov., isolated from a drinking water treatment plant. | a bacterial strain (ds22t) isolated from a drinking water treatment plant was characterized using a polyphasic approach. strain ds22t comprised aerobic, non-motile endospore forming rods which stained gram-positive and were catalase- and oxidase- positive. growth occurred within the ranges 15-37 °c, ph 7-10 and up to 8 % (w/v) nacl, with optima at about 30 °c, ph 7-8 and 1-3 % nacl. the major respiratory quinone was menaquinone mk-7, the g+c content of the genomic dna was 36.5 mol % and the cell ... | 2011 | 21335493 |
| bacillus mesophilum sp. nov., strain iitr-54t, a novel 4-chlorobiphenyl dechlorinating bacterium. | the taxonomic position of a gram-positive, endospore-forming bacterium isolated from soil sample collected from an industrial site was analyzed by a polyphasic approach. the strain designated as iitr-54t matched most of the phenotypic and chemical characteristics of the genus bacillus and represents a novel species. it was found to biodegrade 4-chlorobiphenyl through dechlorination and was isolated through enrichment procedure from an aged polychlorinated biphenyl-contaminated soil. both resting ... | 2014 | 24807729 |
| bacillus gottheilii sp. nov., isolated from a pharmaceutical manufacturing site. | a novel gram-staining-positive, rod-shaped, motile, strictly aerobic, endospore-forming bacterium, designated wcc 4585(t), was isolated from a pharmaceutical production line. the organism grew optimally at 30 °c, at ph 8 and in the presence of 0.5 % (w/v) nacl. oval endospores were formed subterminally and terminally in swollen sporangia. the cell-wall diamino acid was meso-diaminopimelic acid (type a1γ) and the genomic dna g+c content was 38.7 mol%. the major menaquinone was mk-7. the cellular ... | 2013 | 22634699 |
| bacillus abyssalis sp. nov., isolated from a sediment of the south china sea. | a gram-positive bacterium, designated scsio 15042(t), was isolated from a sediment of the south china sea and was subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. the isolate grew at 20-60 °c, ph 6.0-10.0 and it could grow with up to 10 % (w/v) nacl. the cell-wall diamino acid was found to be meso-diaminopimelic acid. polar lipids were found to be diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine and an unknown polar lipid. the only menaquinone was determined to be mk-7. the ma ... | 2013 | 23314911 |
| whole genomic sequence analysis of bacillus infantis: defining the genetic blueprint of strain nrrl b-14911, an emerging cardiopathogenic microbe. | we recently reported the identification of bacillus sp. nrrl b-14911 that induces heart autoimmunity by generating cardiac-reactive t cells through molecular mimicry. this marine bacterium was originally isolated from the gulf of mexico, but no associations with human diseases were reported. therefore, to characterize its biological and medical significance, we sought to determine and analyze the complete genome sequence of bacillus sp. nrrl b-14911. | 2016 | 27557119 |
