Query: NC_013943:382807 Denitrovibrio acetiphilus DSM 12809 chromosome, complete genome Lineage: Denitrovibrio acetiphilus; Denitrovibrio; Deferribacteraceae; Deferribacterales; Deferribacteres; Bacteria General Information: Isolation: Oil reservoir model column; Country: Norway; Temp: Mesophile; Habitat: Fresh water, Marine. This organism was first isolated from an oil reservoir modeling column under nitrate enrichment and reduces nitrate to ammonia. Stimulating the growth of nitrate-reducing bacterium in an oil well may prevent the growth of sulfate-reducing bacterium which cause reservoir souring by the production of H2S.

General Information: This strain is a strongly adherent, slime-producing, pathogenic strain isolated from a patient with intravascular catheter-associated sepsis. 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. Highly resistant to many antibiotics including penicillins and cephalosporins.
