  • Title: Azoarcus anaerobius sp. nov., a resorcinol-degrading, strictly anaerobic, denitrifying bacterium.
    Author: Springer N, Ludwig W, Philipp B, Schink B.
    Journal: Int J Syst Bacteriol; 1998 Jul; 48 Pt 3():953-6. PubMed ID: 9734051.
    Abstract:
    A strictly anaerobic, nitrate-reducing bacterium, strain LuFRes1, was isolated using resorcinol as sole source of carbon and energy. The strain reduced nitrate to dinitrogen gas and was not able to use oxygen as an alternative electron acceptor. Cells were catalase-negative but superoxide-dismutase-positive. Resorcinol was completely oxidized to CO2. 16S rRNA sequence analysis revealed a high similarity with sequences of Azoarcus evansii and Azoarcus tolulyticus. Strain LuFRes1T (= DSM 12081T) is described as a new species of the genus Azoarcus, Azoarcus anaerobius.
