Isolation, molecular identification, and genomic analysis of strain ASIOC01 from activated sludge harboring the bioremediation prowess of glycerol and organic pollutants in high-salinity.

The physiological and genotypic characteristics of (MGB) remain largely unexplored, including their distribution and abundance within ecosystems. (MPH) ASIOC01 was successfully isolated from activated sludge (AS), which was pre-enriched by adding 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol and 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol as carbon sources. The new isolate, MPH ASIOC01, exhibited resilience in a medium containing sodium chloride concentration up to 11% (with optimal growth observed at 3%) and effectively utilizing glycerol as their sole carbon source.
