micrococcus

Perhaps this was a result of a micrococcus obtained from throat cultures.

The normal habitat for this Micrococcus species is skin, soil, and water.

Micrococcus occurs in a wide range of environments, including water, dust, and soil.

"Micrococcus gallicidus" was the first scientific name used for these bacteria.

Initially, it was placed in the genus Micrococcus.

In 1896 he isolated micrococcus catarrhalis that is the cause of laryngitis.

In rare cases, death of immunocompromised patients has occurred from pulmonary infections caused by Micrococcus.

The species was formerly called Micrococcus radiodurans.

Micrococcus has a substantial cell wall, which may comprise as much as 50% of the cell mass.

The most recent strand of micrococci to be discovered is the "Micrococcus mortus".

Micrococcus lylae is a gram positive bacteria.

Micrococcus roseus is a strictly aerobic organism.

Pyrgulopsis micrococcus.

Micrococcus spp.

The bacteria Micrococcus flacidifex danai also infects the caterpillar and causes "black death".

Micrococcus roseus is a gram positive bacterial cell that grows in the tetrad arrangement.

He named the coccus Micrococcus lysodeikticus and used it as a test for identifying the destructive or lysing agent.

The normal habitat for this Micrococcus species is skin, and has also been found in the urinary tract of patients with urinary tract infections.

Hybridization studies indicate that species within the genus Micrococcus are not closely related, showing as little as 50% sequence similarity.

Manufacturers, such as Ajinomoto, use selected strains of Micrococcus glutamicus bacteria in a nutrient-rich medium.

Most are mesophiles; some, like Micrococcus antarcticus (found in Antarctica) are psychrophiles.

Originally isolated from skin infections in pigs and named Micrococcus hyicus, the species was moved to its present genus on the basis of phenotypic similarities.

This suggests that some Micrococcus species may, on the basis of ribosomal RNA analysis, eventually be re-classified into other microbial genera.

Other Micrococcus isolates produce various useful products, such as long-chain (C21-C34) aliphatic hydrocarbons for lubricating oils.
