Abstract excerpt
Two Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming bacterial strains were isolated from a hexane-treated, full-scale biofilter from an oil mill. The strains were cultivated with hexane as the sole carbon source. One strain, MN154.3(T), showed a fatty acid profile that contained 16 : 0, 18 : 1cis11 and 19 : 0 cyclo11-12 as major compounds, while the second strain, isolate MN28(T), contained 14 : 0 3-OH, 16 : 0 and...
