Ten isolates of Confertobasidiumolivaceo-album (Bourd. & Galz.) Jülich (Corticiumfuscostratum Burt) were tested to determine optimum temperature for growth and capability to stain and decay wood. Optimum growth temperature for the majority of the isolates was 22 °C. Decay rates for all isolates were uniformly low, and after 12 weeks of incubation, weight loss was never more than 5%. Decay was greater in pine heartwood than in sapwood, averaging 3.7–3.9% and 2.2–2.3%, respectively. Little or no difference in decay rate occurred between soil-block tests at 22 °C and at 27 °C. Two of the 10 isolates caused a golden-orange stain in pine heartwood.

Optimum Growth Temperature

Studies with a methanogenic culture enriched for use of acetic acid showed that this culture had an optimum growth temperature of 35 °C, with only small differences for other temperatures between 30 and 40 °C. The optimum temperature was the same when determined on the basis of biomass production rate during the exponential (log) phase of growth (0.08–0.09 day−1, at 35 °C), amount of biomass present at the end of the log phase (100 mg/ℓ), activity of the biomass (rate of conversion in millimoles per day per milligram (dry wt.) biomass present, 0.08 at end of log phase), or biomass yield (mg (dry wt.) biomass produced per millimole acetic acid converted, 1.0–1.1). Temperatures outside the range 30 to 40 °C caused marked reductions in the above parameters. The maximum temperature for growth was 42–44 °C; the minimum, below 15 °C, the lowest temperature studied. Acetic acid conversion to methane was 0.8–1.0 mol/mol, and was independent of temperature.

Optimum Growth Temperature

Lipid composition of three Arthrobacter strains (mesophilic, psychrotrophic, and psychrophilic strains) grown at their optimum growth temperature was studied. Great differences appeared only in the nature of their fatty acids: the psychrophilic strain synthesized less linear acids, C17 acids, and more iso isomers than the other two strains.Incubation of the three strains at temperatures below their optimum resulted in variations only in proportion of the different fatty acids: increase of the ratio of unsaturated, of branched, and of short-chain fatty acids.The relation between lipid composition and ability to grow at temperatures around 0 °C is discussed.

Under the laboratory conditions, the effect of temperature (10, 15, 20, 25, 30°C) on growth and biochemical composition of Sargassum muticum was studied, the results showed that: the optimum growth temperature of S.muticum was 15 °C in the range of 10-30 °C; the contents of chlorophyll a, carotenoid, soluble protein, soluble sugar and brown algae polyphenols were the highest at the temperature of 25 °C, it was speculated that these components appeared compensatory increase duo to the high temperature stress. The contents of these biochemical components were the lowest at 30 °C.

Preliminary Study

The degradation of natural phosphorylated compounds (galactose-1-phosphate, N-acetyl-glucosamine-1-phosphate, glycerophosphoethanolamine, and glycerophosphocholine) and added phosphorylated compounds (diphosphate) in milk was investigated by phosphorus 31 nuclear magnetic resonance on the incubation of a sterile milk with Pseudomonas fluorescens CECT381, Lactococcus lactis CECT539, and Kluyveromyces marxianus CECT10584. This preliminary study showed that the degradation of these compounds was dependent on the compound, microorganism, and temperature of incubation. K. marxianus CECT10584 did not show any capability to degrade these compounds, and L. lactis CECT539 was only able to degrade diphosphate at its optimum growth temperature. P. fluorescens CECT381 was the most active strain and possessed more hydrolytic capabilities at 10°C than at its optimum growth temperature. It is suggested that cold-induced enzymes are involved in the ability of P. fluorescens CECT381 to hydrolyze the natural phosphorylated compounds in milk. Consequent potential alterations of dairy products are discussed.

Partial Vacuum

SummaryThe sterilization of homogenized milk at 115·5°C for 15 min in bottles having a partial vacuum in the headspace produced conditions inhibitory to the growth from very small numbers of spores ofBacillus subtilis, B. licheniformis, B. cereusandB. breviswhen compared with growth in the same milk sterilized in open bottles.B. circulansdiffered from the other strains tested in showing greater inhibition in milk sterilized in open bottles than in milk sterilized under partial vacuum.The extent of the inhibition became less as the size of the inoculum was increased. It became less also as the temperature of incubation approached the optimum growth temperature of the bacillus, and was influenced by the strain of the bacillus and the source of the milk but not by the degree of heat treatment within the range 107–117·5°C for 15 min. Inhibition was manifested by a prolongation of the lag phase, and in addition with some strains inhibition of spore germination could be demonstrated.Spore formation following vegetative growth occurred more readily in milk sterilized in open than in evacuated bottles.Milks sterilized under partial vacuum frequently failed to show any growth from small inocula in 30 days at 22°C although growth occurred readily in milk sterilized in open bottles.

The facultatively aerobic, non-hydrogenotrophic, iron (Fe0)-corroding, nitrate-reducing Prolixibacter sp. strain MIC1-1T was characterized for representation of a novel species of the genus Prolixibacter. Strain MIC1-1T grew optimally at 35–37 °C, at pH 6.5 and with 2  % (w/v) NaCl. Strain MIC1-1T also grew fermentatively on some pentoses, hexoses, disaccharides and soluble starch. Succinic acid was the major end-product from d-glucose fermentation. Strain MIC1-1T was differentiated from the type strain of Prolixibacter bellariivorans by cell size, optimum growth temperature, range of temperature and NaCl for growth, and nitrate reduction. On the basis of phenotypic features and the phylogenetic position, a novel species of the genus Prolixibacter is proposed for strain MIC1-1T, to be named Prolixibacter denitrificans sp. nov. The type strain is MIC1-1T ( = JCM 18694T = NBRC 102688T = DSM 27267T). Emended descriptions of the genus Prolixibacter and Prolixibacter bellariivorans are also provided.

Logarithmic Growth

Growth of Pseudomonas fluorescens, Flavobacterium deciduosum, and B. vulgatus (all of marine origin) in buffered nutrient broth at 37°, 20°, 5°, 0° and −3 °C. has been followed quantitatively by means of plate counts. Maximum crops were obtained at 5 °C. in all cases, and higher total crops at 0° and −3° than at 37° and 20°. Maximum crop yield is considered a better criterion for optimum growth temperature than the growth rate during logarithmic growth. These marine bacteria are therefore considered to be truly psychrophilic.
