Comamonas thiooxydans is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium from the genus Comamonas and family Comamonadaceae, [3] which was isolated from a sulfur spring. [4] C. thiooxydans has the ability to oxidize thiosulfate. [5]
Comamonas sp. strain E6 (NBRC 107749), isolated from soil, is known for its ability to oxidize phthalate isomers such as terephthalic acid. Its genome has been sequenced as GCF_001010305.1. [6] Based on this genome, the GTDB assigns strain E6 to Comamonas thiooxydans. [7]
