Lineage: Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus; Caldicellulosiruptor; Thermoanaerobacterales Family III; Thermoanaerobacterales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus is a cellulolytic thermphile. This organism produces thermostable cellulases, which are of use in paper manufacturing. Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus DSM 8903 was isolated from a hot spring in New Zealand.
Subject: NC_004461:1849176 Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC 12228, complete genome
Lineage: Staphylococcus epidermidis; Staphylococcus; Staphylococcaceae; Bacillales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: This strain is a non-biofilm-forming, non-infection associated strain used for detection of residual antibiotics in food products. Common skin bacterium. Staphylcocci are generally found inhabiting the skin and mucous membranes of mammals and birds. Some members of this genus can be found as human commensals and these are generally believed to have the greatest pathogenic potential in opportunistic infections. This organism is the most prevalent and persistent Staphylococcus species on human skin. Has emerged as a common cause of nosocomial (hospital-acquired) infections, including catheter-associated infections and septicemia, particularly in immunocompromised patients. Resistant to many antibiotics including penicillins and cephalosporins.
