Abstract excerpt
The microflora isolated from food-packaging board is dominated by paenibacilli; a number of these micro-organisms have been characterized using a polyphasic approach. The highest 16S rRNA gene similarity was found between these isolates and Paenibacillus azotofixans ATCC 35681(T) (97.7 %). The main fatty acid of the paperboard isolates was C(16 : 0) (34-45 %); straight-chain fatty acids made up 41-60 % of the...
