Title: Characteristics of heavily mucoid bacterial isolated from fish pen slime. Author: Chai TJ, Levin RE. Journal: Appl Microbiol; 1975 Sep; 30(3):450-5. PubMed ID: 16350034. Abstract: Weakly gram-positive pleomorphic rods isolated from the slime on the storage pen surfaces of fishing trawlers were found to produce extensive capsular material and intensely mucoid colonies. The isolates studied produced highly pleomorphic club-shaped cells indicative of coryneforms. Their DNA base composition ranged from 64.2 to 68.2 mol% guanine plus cytosine on the basis of melting point determinations.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
