Gordonia defluvii sp. nov., an actinomycete isolated from activated sludge foam. (2006)
Journal Article
Soddell, J. A., Stainsby, F. M., Eales, K. L., Seviour, R. J., & Goodfellow, M. (2006). Gordonia defluvii sp. nov., an actinomycete isolated from activated sludge foam. International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 56, 2265-2269. https://doi.org/10.1099/ijs.0.64034-0

Three strains of non-motile, Gram-positive, filamentous actinomycetes, isolates J4T, J5 and J59, initially recognized microscopically in activated sludge foam by their distinctive branching patterns, were isolated by micromanipulation. The taxonomic... Read More about Gordonia defluvii sp. nov., an actinomycete isolated from activated sludge foam..

Enhanced biodegradation of diesel oil by a newly identified Rhodococcus baikonurensis EN3 in the presence of mycolic acid. (2006)
Journal Article
Lee, M., Kim, M., Singleton, I., Goodfellow, M., & Lee, S.-T. (2006). Enhanced biodegradation of diesel oil by a newly identified Rhodococcus baikonurensis EN3 in the presence of mycolic acid. Journal of Applied Microbiology, 100(2), 325-333. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2672.2005.02756.x

Aims:  The aim of the present study was to isolate and characterize a bacterium, strain EN3, capable of using diesel oil as a major carbon and energy source, and to analyse the enhancement of diesel oil degradation by this organism using synthetic my...
