Caloramator boliviensis sp. nov., a thermophilic, ethanol-producing bacterium isolated from a hot spring

Abstract: A novel moderately thermophilic, anaerobic, ethanol-producing bacterial strain, 45B T , was isolated from a mixed sediment water sample collected from a hot spring at Potosi, Bolivia. The cells were straight to slightly curved rods approximately 2.5 mm long and 0.5 mm wide. The strain was Gramstain-variable, spore-forming and monotrichously flagellated. Growth of the strain was observed at 45-65 6C and pH 5.5-8.0, with optima of 60 6C and pH 6.5. The substrates utilized by strain 45B T were xylose, cellobiose,… Show more

“…wide spectrum of metabolites, such as volatile fatty acids (VFAs), alcohols, phenols, and other substances, as well as large amounts of gas (CO 2 and H 2 ), are produced (11,(38)(39)(40)(41). Some of them, such as butyric and caproic acids, can be used as precursors to and directly as important flavor compounds of CSAL (7,12); caproic acid-producing C. kluyveri strains in particular involve the formation of ethyl caproate, which is the key flavor compound affecting CSAL quality (12).…”

“…as Clostridiaceae 1 in this study, was enriched along with Phy1 and 11 ( Figure 5) and it is also associated (>99%, NCBI) with Caloramator sp. which produces ethanol, short chain fatty acids, carbon dioxide and hydrogen as end products of glucose fermentation 27 . The highest relative abundances of all these phylotypes were observed with ethanol/propanol and in propionate/butyrate.…”
