Abstract excerpt
A moderately halophilic, Gram-positive-staining, endospore-forming, rod-shaped and strictly aerobic bacterium, designated strain NHBX5(T), was isolated from Lake Nanhuobuxun in China. Strain NHBX5(T) was able to grow at NaCl concentrations of 0-22 % (w/v) (optimally at 7 %, w/v), at pH 6.0-9.0 (optimally at pH 7.5) and at temperatures of 10-45 degrees C (optimally at 37 degrees C). The cell-wall peptidoglycan of...
