| Shewanella dokdonensis sp. nov., isolated from the Dong-do coast sea water at Dokdo island, Korea. | The strain designated as UDC329(T) was obtained from a sea water sample collected off the coast at Dong-do, Dokdo Island, Korea. This strain is Gram-negative, motile, facultative anaerobic non-spore forming, rod-shaped isolate forming dark orange-yellow coloured colonies. This organism grew optimally at 25-30 °C in the presence of 1% NaCl, and at pH 7. The organism grew in the absence of NaCl but did not grow in the presence in NaCl of >7%. Strain UDC329(T) contained both menaquinones and ubiqui ... | 2011 | 21890724 |
| shewanella upenei sp. nov., a lipolytic bacterium isolated from bensasi goatfish upeneus bensasi. | a gram-staining-negative, motile, non-spore-forming and rod-shaped bacterial strain, 20-23r(t), was isolated from intestine of bensasi goatfish, upeneus bensasi, and its taxonomic position was investigated by using a polyphasic study. phylogenetic analyses based on 16s rrna gene sequences revealed that strain 20-23r(t) belonged to the genus shewanella. strain 20-23r(t) exhibited 16s rrna gene sequence similarity values of 99.5, 99.2, and 97.5% to shewanella algae atcc 51192(t), shewanella haliot ... | 2011 | 21717322 |
| shewanella chilikensis sp. nov., a moderately alkaliphilic gammaproteobacterium isolated from a lagoon. | a gram-negative, motile, rod-shaped, facultatively anaerobic bacterium was isolated from sediment of chilika lagoon, a brackish water lagoon in india. the strain, designated jc5(t), was able to grow in the presence of 0-8.0 % nacl and at ph 7.0-10.0. the isolate was positive for oxidase and catalase and exhibited alpha-haemolysis. the major fatty acids were iso-c(15 : 0) (18.3 %), c(16 : 0) (11.3 %), c(17 : 1)omega8c (13.1 %) and a summed feature, c(16 : 1)omega7c and/or c(16 : 1)omega6c (15.1 % ... | 2009 | 19643885 |
| shewanella indica sp. nov., isolated from the sediment of arabian sea. | a gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod shaped, motile by single polar flagellum, catalase- and oxidase-positive bacterium, designated strain kjw27t, was isolated from the marine sediment of karwar jetty, west coast of india. the strain was β-hemolytic, grows at 0-10 % (w/v) nacl, 10-45 °c and ph 6.5-10 with optimum growth at 2 % (w/v) nacl, 37 °c and ph 7.5. the major fatty acids were iso-c15:0 (22.2 %), c17:1 ω8c (21 %), summed feature 3 (comprising c16:1ω7c and/or c16:1 ω6c; 10.2 %), c1 ... | 2010 | 20851908 |
| shewanella carassii sp. nov., isolated from surface swabs of crucian carp and faeces of a diarrhoea patient. | two strains, 08mas2251t and lz2016-166, were isolated from diverse samples in china collected from the surface of crucian carp and the faeces of a diarrhoea patient, respectively. both strains were pink-orange coloured, gram-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, facultative anaerobic and motile bacteria, produced h2s and reduced nitrates to nitrites. growth occurred in the presence of 0-9 % (w/v) nacl and at 10-42 °c. the optimum conditions were with 1 % (w/v) nacl and at 35 °c. the phylogen ... | 2017 | 29205124 |
| microbial diversity of saline environments: searching for cytotoxic activities. | in order to select halophilic microorganisms as a source of compounds with cytotoxic activities, a total of 135 bacterial strains were isolated from water and sediment samples collected from the zipaquirá salt mine in the colombian andes. we determined the cytotoxic effects of 100 crude extracts from 54 selected organisms on the adherent murine mammary cell carcinoma 4t1 and human mammary adenocarcinoma mcf-7 cell lines. these extracts were obtained from strains of isoptericola, ornithinimicrobi ... | 2017 | 29273919 |
