Jeotgalicoccus huakuii is a gram-positive bacterium. The cells are coccoid. It is moderately halophilic, (salt-tolerant) it grows in the presence of 0–23% NaCl, optimal values are 3 -8%. It belongs to the family Staphylococcaceae.

Rhodococcus erythropolis is a bacterium species in the genus Rhodococcus. It is Gram-positive. R. erythropolis has been isolated from the air of the Russian Space Laboratory Mir along with a large number of other microorganisms that steadily accumulated during the lifespan of the station. Rhodococcus bacteria are known to degrade organic compounds contained in the rubber used aboard the space station with specialized enzymes. This can lead to degradation of critical components and necessitates replacement of the parts or preventive measures dealing with microbial contamination.
