| zobellella denitrificans gen. nov., sp. nov. and zobellella taiwanensis sp. nov., denitrifying bacteria capable of fermentative metabolism. | two denitrifying strains of heterotrophic, facultatively anaerobic bacteria, designated zd1(t) and zt1(t), were isolated from sediment samples collected from mangrove ecosystems in taiwan. the isolates were gram-negative. cells grown in broth cultures were straight rods that were motile by means of a single polar flagellum. the isolates grew optimally in 1-3 % nacl, but nacl was not an absolute requirement for growth; only strain zt1(t) grew in 13-14 % nacl. both isolates grew between 10 and 45 ... | 2006 | 16738093 |
| zobellella denitrificans strain mw1, a newly isolated bacterium suitable for poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) production from glycerol. | to search for new bacteria for efficient production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (phas) from glycerol. | 2010 | 19566718 |
| poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) production from glycerol by zobellella denitrificans mw1 via high-cell-density fed-batch fermentation and simplified solvent extraction. | industrial production of biodegradable polyesters such as polyhydroxyalkanoates is hampered by high production costs, among which the costs for substrates and for downstream processing represent the main obstacles. inexpensive fermentable raw materials such as crude glycerol, an abundant by-product of the biodiesel industry, have emerged to be promising carbon sources for industrial fermentations. in this study, zobellella denitrificans mw1, a recently isolated bacterium, was used for the produc ... | 2009 | 19666728 |
| zobellella aerophila sp. nov., isolated from seashore sand and emended description of the genus zobellella. | a strictly aerobic, nitrate reducing, motile and rod-shaped gammaproteobacteria, designated strain jc2671(t), was isolated from a seashore sand sample of dokdo, korea. the isolate reduced nitrite to nitrite, but not to nitrogen, and required nacl for growth. result of the 16s rrna gene sequence analysis indicated that the isolate belongs to the genus zobellella within the order alteromonadales with the sequence similarities of 96.0-97.6 % to other validly named zobellella spp. however, the low g ... | 2010 | 21097636 |
| oceanisphaera ostreae sp. nov., isolated from seawater of an oyster farm in the south sea, korea, and emended description of the genus oceanisphaera romanenko et al. 2003. | a gram-staining-negative, motile, non-spore-forming and short rod or rod-shaped bacterial strain, t-w6(t), was isolated from seawater of an oyster farm in the south sea, korea. strain t-w6(t) grew optimally at 25 °c and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) nacl. phylogenetic analyses based on 16s rrna gene sequences revealed that strain t-w6(t) joined the cluster comprising oceanisphaera species by a bootstrap resampling value of 90.8 %, and this cluster joined the clade comprising members of the genera ... | 2011 | 21257693 |
