Aquamicrobium defluvii is a gram-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, bacteria from the genus of Aquamicrobium which was isolated from activated sewage sludge in Germany. Oxygen can be used as a terminal electron accpetor. Different carbons were tested but only a few sugars, fatty acids and thiophene 2-carboxylate supported growth (Bambauer, A. 1998) The genomic information about these species is limited and more research is needed (Wang, X 2015). . [3] [4] [5] Aquamicrobium defluvii uses thiophene-2-carboxylate as only source for carbon. [3]
The Thermomicrobia is a group of thermophilic green non-sulfur bacteria. Based on species Thermomicrobium roseum and Sphaerobacter thermophilus, this bacteria class has the following description:
In enzymology, a thiophene-2-carbonyl-CoA monooxygenase (EC 1.14.99.35) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Comamonas denitrificans is a Gram-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, motile bacterium with a polar flagellum from the genus Comamonas and family Comamonadaceae, which was isolated from an activated sludge. Its colonies are yellow-white colored. Unlike other species of Comamonas, C. denitrificans can reduce nitrate to nitrogen gas.
Hydrogenophaga atypica is a Gram-negative, oxidase-positive, rod-shaped, motile bacterium from the Comamonadaceae family, which was isolated from wastewater from an activated sludge. The colonies of H. atypica are pale yellow.
Malikia granosa is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, motile bacterium with one to two polar flagella from the new genus Malikia in family Comamonadaceae. It was isolated from activated sludge of a municipal wastewater treatment plant. Colonies of M. granosa are creamy–white in color.
Nitrospira moscoviensis was the second bacterium classified under the most diverse nitrite-oxidizing bacteria phylum, Nitrospirae. It is a gram-negative, non-motile, facultative lithoauthotropic bacterium that was discovered in Moscow, Russia in 1995. The genus name, Nitrospira, originates from the prefix “nitro” derived from nitrite, the microbe’s electron donor and “spira” meaning coil or spiral derived from the microbe’s shape. The species name, moscoviensis, is derived from Moscow, where the species was first discovered. N. moscoviensis could potentially be used in the production of bio-degradable polymers.
Oceanobacillus neutriphilus is a bacterium. It is Gram-positive, neutrophilic, and rod-shaped its type strain being strain A1gT.
Shewanella decolorationis is a gram-negative, dye-decolorizing bacterium first isolated from activated sludge of a waste-water treatment plant. It is motile by means of a single polar flagellum. The type strain is S12T. Its genome has been sequenced.
Aquamicrobium lusatiense is a Gram-negative, oxidase-positive, strictly aerobic bacteria from the genus Aquamicrobium with a polar flagellum, which was isolated from activated sludge in Germany. Aquamicrobium lusatiense is able to degrade 2,4-dichlorophenol, 4-chloro-2-methylphenol, 4-chlorophenol, and phenol.
Ethanoligenens harbinense is a hydrogen-producing, fermenting bacterium that shows potential for bioenergy-related applications, including biofuel production from waste streams.
Gordonia alkanivorans is a bacterium from the genus of Gordonia which has been isolated from soil which was contaminated with tar and phenol in Rositz in Germany. Gordonia alkanivorans has the ability to metabolize hexadecane. The strain RIPI90A of Gordonia alkanivorans can desulfurize dibenzothiophene.
Gordonia defluvii is a Gram-positive and non-motile bacterium from the genus Gordonia which has been isolated from activated sludge foams in Australia.
Runella defluvii is a Gram-negative and rod-shaped bacterium from the genus of Runella which has been isolated from activated sludge from a wastewater treatment plant in Pohang in Korea.
Runella defluvii is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, strictly aerobic and non-motile bacterium from the genus of Runella which has been isolated from activated sludge in Korea.
Desulfococcus oleovorans is a bacterium from the genus Desulfococcus which has been isolated from mud from an oilfield near Hamburg in Germany.
Aquamicrobium terrae is a Gram-negative, aerobic and non-motile bacteria from the genus of Aquamicrobium which has been isolated from soil which was contaminated with aromatic compounds in Nanjing in China.
Methylophaga thiooxydans is a methylotrophic bacterium that requires high salt concentrations for growth. It was originally isolated from a culture of the algae Emiliania huxleyi, where it grows by breaking down dimethylsulfoniopropionate from E. hexleyi into dimethylsulfide and acrylate. M. thiooxydans has been implicated as a dominant organism in phytoplankton blooms, where it consumes dimethylsulfide, methanol and methyl bromide released by dying phytoplankton. It was also identified as one of the dominant organisms present in the plume following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, and was identified as a major player in the breakdown of methanol in coastal surface water in the English Channel.
Flavobacterium defluvii is a Gram-negative and non-spore-forming bacterium from the genus of Flavobacterium which has been isolated from activated sludge from a municipal wastewater treatment plant in Pohang in Korea.
Ottowia is a genus of bacteria from the family of Comamonadaceae.
Syntrophaceae is a family of bacteria in the order Syntrophales. It comprises four genera: Syntrophus, Smithella, Desulfobacca and Desulfomonile. All members have rod-shaped cells and do not form spores. As gram-negative bacteria, the presence of a thin cell wall and a double membrane is notable. This bacterium usually forms red or pink colonies.
