Three strains of a previously undescribed, Gram-positive, coryneform bacterium, which were isolated from cattle, were subjected to polyphasic taxonomic analysis. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed that the unknown isolates were members of the genus Arthrobacter and were phylogenetically closely related to Arthrobacter luteolus. However, DNA-DNA hybridization indicated that the strains belonged to a new sub-lineage within the genus Arthrobacter. The unknown isolates can be distinguished from related species by biochemical tests. It is proposed that the Arthrobacter-like bacteria of veterinary origin should be classified in the genus Arthrobacter as Arthrobacter gandavensis sp. nov., with the type strain LMG 21285(T) (=DSM 15046(T)).

Cultivable microbial communities associated with plants inhabiting extreme environments have great potential in biotechnological applications. However, there is a lack of knowledge about these microorganisms from Bryophyllum pinnatum (which survives in severely barren soil) and their ability to promote plant growth. The present study focused on the isolation, identification, biochemical characterization, and potential applications of root endophytic bacteria and rhizosphere bacteria.

Antarctica's harsh environmental conditions, characterized by high levels of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, pose challenges for microorganisms. To survive in these extreme cold regions with heightened UV exposure, microorganisms employ various adaptive strategies, including photoprotective carotenoid synthesis. Carotenoids are garnering attention in the skin health industry because of their UV photoprotection potential, given the direct relationship between UV exposure and skin burns, and cancer.

There is a major gap in the occurrence of mixed emerging contaminants, which hinders our efforts in exploring their behaviors and transport in environmental media, as well as their toxicity to human and ecosystem. This study assessed the occurrence and their correlations of mixed contamination by microplastics (MPs), per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), antibiotics, and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in groundwater collected from a pharmaceutical and chemical industrial park. MPs, PFASs, antibiotics and ARGs were detected at all monitoring wells.

Uncultured microorganisms represent a promising and untapped source of antibacterial compounds, crucial in the fight against the significant threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). In this study, both traditional and isolation chip (iChip) cultivation techniques were employed to enhance the recovery of known and unknown microorganisms from soils located in Normandy, France. The isolates obtained were identified using 16S rDNA or ITS regions analysis and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and were screened for antibacterial activity.
