Isolation, biochemical characterization and phylogeny of a cellulose-degrading ruminal bacterium

Abstract: Background: The isolation of cellulolytic bacteria, which hydrolyze cellulose to cellobiose and glucose, can provide useful information about rumen diversity. Objective: To identify and characterize a microorganism capable of hydrolyzing cellulose, isolated from a cow rumen. Methods: Anaerobic culture techniques were used for isolating cellulose-degrading rumen bacteria. Congo red staining was used to evaluate β-D-glucanase activity, and carbohydrate fermentation pattern was obtained with the kit API 50CHB/E. … Show more

“…These species are categorized according to the substrate used and the products of their fermentation, classified into structural and non-structural, lipolytic, proteolytic, and lactic carbohydrate fermenting bacteria [61][62][63]. Consequently, bacteria, besides being present in ruminal fermentation and providing energy to ruminants, are also the largest producers of enteric methane, the natural gas derived from the fermenting of food consumed by animals by means of methanogenic archaea that use free hydrogen (H 2 ) and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) as substrates [30,41,64].…”
