Abstract
Three strains of new acetogenic bacteria were isolated from several lo w temperature environments. Cells were gram-positive, oval-shaped flag ellated rods. The organisms fermented H-2/CO2, CO, formate, lactate, a nd several sugars to acetate. Strains Z-4391 and Z-4092 grew in the te mperature range from 1 to 30 degrees C with an optimum at 20 degrees C ; strain Z-4290 grew in the range from 1 to 35 degrees C with an optim um at 30 degrees C. The DNA G+C content of strains Z-4391, Z-4092, and Z-4290 was 42.1, 41.7, and 45.8 mol%, respectively.
