| A thermophilic, anaerobic, chemo-organotrophic sulfur-reducing bacterium, designated MV1075(T), was isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal chimney sample collected on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Cells were rod-shaped with a sheath-like outer structure, motile with polar flagella and stained Gramnegative. They appeared singly, in pairs or in short chains. The temperature range for growth was 25-65 degreesC, with an optimum at 55 degreesC. Growth was observed from ph 5 to ph 9, and the optimum ph was around 7. The salinity range for growth was 15-70 g sea salt I-1 (corresponding to 10-45 g NaCl I-1), with an optimum at 30 g I-1 (20 g NaCl I-1). The isolate was able to grow on a broad spectrum of carbohydrates or complex proteinaceous substrates. Sulfur was not... |
