A novel Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, endospore-forming, motile, aerobic bacterium, designated as P2, was isolated from a hot spring water sample collected from Ilica-Erzurum, Turkey. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons affiliated strain P2 with the genus , and the strain showed the highest sequence identity to NBRC 15712 (96.7 %).

Article Synopsis
  • Strain P1, a Gram-positive, endospore-forming bacterium, was isolated from Pasinler Hot Spring and characterized to determine its taxonomic classification.
  • It shares high genetic similarity with known strains R-6488 (97.6%) and MO-04 (97.2%), and forms a unique group in phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences.
  • Strain P1 thrives at 55°C and 2% NaCl, contains specific cell-wall components, and is proposed as a new species within the genus, named sp. nov., with type strain P1.

Non-sterile culture technique is currently used in some microbial processes. However, there is no study on the use of this technique in the production of microbial lipases and hydrolysis of waste frying oils. This study was conducted to hydrolyse waste frying oils and produce lipase under non-sterile culture conditions using locally isolated cold-adapted bacteria.
