Arthrobacter, like other bacterial genera including Brevibacterium, Microbacterium, and Corynebacterium are used for industrial production of L-glutamate. In industrial applications, Arthrobacter is often grown with low-cost sugar sources such as cane or beet molasses, starch hydrolysates from corn or cassava tubers, or tapioca.
The Actinomycetota (or Actinobacteria) are a diverse phylum of Gram-positive bacteria with high GC content. [4] They can be terrestrial or aquatic. [5] They are of great importance to land flora because of their contributions to soil systems. In soil they help to decompose the organic matter of dead organisms so the molecules can be taken up ...
While a five-year course of treatment for MS with Tysabri, made by Biogen Idec and Elan Pharmaceuticals, costs about $140,000, Lawrence charges $3,050 for a treatment. The worms live three to 10 ...
Actinomyces is a genus of the Actinomycetia class of bacteria.They all are Gram-positive and facultatively anaerobic, growing best under anaerobic conditions. [2] Actinomyces species may form endospores, and while individual bacteria are rod-shaped, Actinomyces colonies form fungus-like branched networks of hyphae. [3]
Bacterial cells are about one-tenth the size of eukaryotic cells and are typically 0.5–5.0 micrometres in length. However, a few species are visible to the unaided eye—for example, Thiomargarita namibiensis is up to half a millimetre long, [ 37 ] Epulopiscium fishelsoni reaches 0.7 mm, [ 38 ] and Thiomargarita magnifica can reach even 2 cm ...
Dactylosporangium aurantiacum is a Gram-positive soil-based actinobacterium in the family Micromonosporaceae. [1] Like all Dactylosporangium species, aurantiacum is aerobic and mesophilic.
Terrabacteria, also known as kingdom Bacillati, is a taxon containing approximately two-thirds of prokaryote species, including those in the gram positive phyla (Actinomycetota and Bacillota) as well as the phyla "Cyanobacteria", Chloroflexota, and Deinococcota.
