Aerococcus viridans is a member of the bacterial genus Aerococcus. It is a causative agent of gaffkaemia , a disease of lobsters , [ 1 ] and is used as a commercial source for lactate oxidase. [ 2 ]
Gaffkaemia was first discovered in 1947 in American lobsters (Homarus americanus) in a holding tank in Maine. [1] It was originally described as "Gaffkya homari" by Hitcher and Snieszko, but the genus name Gaffkya was rejected in 1971, [2] [3] and the gaffkaemia bacterium was recognised as a subspecies or variety of Aerococcus viridans by Kelly and Evans in 1974.
