A Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium (CC-JY-1(T)) was isolated on nutrient agar from a soil sample collected from an oil-contaminated site located in Chyai county, Taiwan. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis demonstrated that this isolate is unique, showing 96.7 % sequence similarity to the type strain of Arenimonas donghaensis and similarities of 93.0-93.8 % to species of the genera Thermomonas, Lysobacter and Silanimonas. The presence of ubiquinone Q-8, a polar lipid profile consisting of the major compounds diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine and the fatty acid profile were in accordance with the phylogenetic affiliation of CC-JY-1(T). DNA-DNA reassociation experiments between CC-JY-1(T) and A. donghaensis KACC 11381(T) resulted in a mean relatedness value of 32 %, indicating that strain CC-JY1(T) represents a novel species in the genus Arenimonas, for which we propose the name Arenimonas malthae sp. nov. The type strain is CC-JY-1(T) (=CCUG 53596(T) =CIP 109310(T)).

Silver nanomaterials (Ag NMs) have been used in a variety of commercial products to take advantage of their antimicrobial properties. However, there are concerns that these AgNMs can be released during/after use and enter wastewater streams, potentially impacting aquatic systems or accumulating in wastewater biosolids. Biosolids, which are a residual of wastewater treatment processes, have been found to contain AgNMs and are frequently used as agricultural fertilizer.

January 2020

Department of Life Science, Chung-Ang University, Seoul 06974, Republic of Korea.

Article Synopsis
  • A new Gram-stain-negative bacterial strain named R29 was isolated from orchard soil in South Korea, showing characteristics like being non-motile and strictly aerobic.
  • The strain grows best at 30°C and thrives in a pH range of 7.0-9.0, with uniquinone-8 and various polar lipids present in its cellular structure.
  • Phylogenetic analysis indicated that R29 is closely related to other strains but represents a new species within its genus, proposed as a novel species with the type strain designated as R29.
