Thiobacillus thiophilus sp. nov., a chemolithoautotrophic, thiosulfate-oxidizing bacterium isolated from contaminated aquifer sediments.

International journal of systematic and evolutionary microbiology - 1 Mar 2009

Kellermann Claudia, Griebler Christian

Abstract excerpt

Strain D24TN(T) was enriched and isolated from sediment collected from a tar oil-contaminated aquifer at a former gasworks site located in Duesseldorf-Flingern, Germany. Cells of strain D24TN(T) were rod-shaped, non-spore-forming and stained Gram-negative. Thiosulfate was used as an electron donor. The organism was obligately chemolithoautotrophic and facultatively anaerobic, and grew with either oxygen or...
