Abstract:A Gram-stain-negative bacterium, designated strain LB-8T, was isolated from an activated sludge sample collected from a factory in Binzhou city, Shandong province, PR China. Cells of strain LB-8T were strictly aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped. Growth occurred at 15–40 °C (optimum, 30 °C), at pH 6.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and at 0–7.5 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0.5 % NaCl). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain LB-8T formed a distinct phyletic branch within the family
