Abstract excerpt
A new strictly anaerobic thermophilic multicellular filamentous bacterium (0.2-0.3μm×>100μm), designated GNS-1(T), was isolated from a deep hot aquifer in France. It was non-motile, and stained Gram-negative. Optimal growth was observed at 65°C, pH 7.0, and 2gL(-1) of NaCl. Strain GNS-1(T) was ch...
