Glaciecola pallidula is a psychrophilic bacteria found in Antarctic sea-ice habitats, being the type species of its genus. It is pigmented, psychrophilic, and a strictly aerobic chemoheterotroph. Its type strain is (ACAM 615T). [1]
Algoriphagus is a genus in the phylum Bacteroidetes (Bacteria).
Shewanella frigidimarina is a species of bacteria, notable for being an Antarctic species with the ability to produce eicosapentaenoic acid. It grows anaerobically by dissimilatory Fe (III) reduction. Its cells are motile and rod shaped. ACAM 591 is its type strain.
Psychroflexus torquis is a species of bacterium. It is psychrophilic and its type strain is strain ACAM 623T. It has the ability to synthesize the polyunsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid and arachidonic acid.
Desulfofrigus oceanense is a bacterium. It is a psychrophilic Gram-negative and sulfate-reducing bacteria with type strain Asv26T.
Desulfofrigus fragile is a bacterium. It is a psychrophilic Gram-negative and sulfate-reducing bacteria with type strain Lsv21T.
Methylosphaera hansonii, also called Antarctic budding methanotroph AM6, is a species of psychrophilic, group I methanotrophs, named after microbiologist Richard S. Hanson. It is non-motile, coccoidal in morphology, does not form resting cells, reproduces by constriction, and requires seawater for growth. Its type strain is ACAM 549.
Psychroserpens burtonensis is a species of psychrophilic, yellow-pigmented bacteria. It is non-motile and nutritionally fastidious. Its type strain is ACAM 188.
Gelidibacter algens is a species of psychrophilic, yellow-pigmented bacteria. It is saccharolytic, exhibits rapid gliding motility, and its cells are rod-like to filamentous. Its type strain is ACAM 536.
Psychrobacter is a genus of Gram-negative, osmotolerant, oxidase-positive, psychrophilic or psychrotolerant, aerobic bacteria which belong to the family Moraxellaceae and the class Gammaproteobacteria. The shape is typically cocci or coccobacilli. Some of those bacteria were isolated from humans and can cause humans infections such as endocarditis and peritonitis. This genus of bacteria is able to grow at temperatures between −10 and 42 °C. Rudi Rossau found through DNA-rRNA hybridization analysis that Psychrobacter belongs to the Moraxellaceae. The first species was described by Juni and Heym. Psychrobacter occur in wide range of moist, cold saline habitats, but they also occur in warm and slightly saline habitats.
Psychrobacter glacincola is a Gram-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, halotolerant, nonmotile bacterium of the genus Psychrobacter, which was isolated from the anchor ice of Amery Ice Shelf in Antarctica. It is strictly oxidative and coccus-shaped; its type strain is ACAM 483T.
Glaciecola punicea is a psychrophilic bacteria found in Antarctic sea-ice habitats, being the type species of its genus. It is pigmented, psychrophilic, and a strictly aerobic chemoheterotroph. Its type strain is. Its genome has been sequenced.
Glaciecola nitratireducens is a psychrophilic bacteria. It is Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, motile and halophilic. Its type strain is FR1064(T). Its genome has been sequenced.
Colwellia demingiae is a psychrophilic Antarctic bacterial species with the ability to synthesize docosahexaenoic acid. It is nonpigmented, curved-rod-like in shape, exhibiting facultative anaerobic growth, and possessing an absolute requirement for sea water. Its type strain is ACAM 459T. This bacteria is named after Jody Deming, a professor and researcher at University of Washington and her research mentor, Rita Colwell.
Colwellia hornerae is a psychrophilic Antarctic bacterial species with the ability to synthesize docosahexaenoic acid. It is nonpigmented, curved-rod-like in shape, exhibiting facultative anaerobic growth and possessing an absolute requirement for sea water. Its type strain is ACAM 607T.
Colwellia rossensis is a psychrophilic Antarctic bacterial species with the ability to synthesize docosahexaenoic acid. It is non-pigmented, curved rod-like shaped, exhibiting facultative anaerobic growth and possessing an absolute requirement for sea water. Its type strain is ACAM 608T.
Colwellia psychrotropica is a psychrophilic Antarctic bacterial species with the ability to synthesize docosahexaenoic acid. It is nonpigmented, curved-rod-like in shape, exhibiting facultative anaerobic growth and possessing an absolute requirement for sea water. Its type strain is ACAM 179T.
Psychroflexus is a psychrophilic bacteria genus from the family of Flavobacteriaceae.
Dokdonia donghaensis is a strictly aerobic, gram-negative, phototrophic bacterium that thrives in marine environments. The organism can grow at a broad range of temperatures on seawater media. It has the ability to form biofilms, which increases the organism's resistance to antimicrobial agents, such as tetracycline.
Jody W. Deming is an American oceanographer. She is a professor of Oceanography and a marine microbiologist at the University of Washington (UW). Her research interests include studies of cold adapted microbes in their relation to astrobiology, biotechnology, and bioremediation. She is known for her extensive field work, being involved in over 50 nautical research expeditions. Deming is also the cofounder of the UW Astrobiology Extremophile Laboratory.
Desulfofaba gelida is a Gram-negative, sulfate-reducing and psychrophilic bacterium from the genus of Desulfofaba which has been isolated from marine mud from Hornsund in Norway.
