The cells are motile, rods and surface of colonies are rough and circular with smooth edges cloudy to white. The pH range for growth is 5.0 to 7.5 and the optimum pH is about 6.0. The optimum temperature for growth is 60 degrees Celsius, and the growth temperature range is between 45 to 70 degrees Celsius. Growth is inhibited by penicillin G, neomycin sulfate, ampicillin, streptomycin sulfate, rifampin, polymyxin B, erythromycin, tetracycline, and acridine orange. Growth is also inhibited by 1% NaCl. T. xylanolyticum utilizes xylan, mannose, sucrose, cellobiose, arabinose, rhamnose, galactose, fructose, maltose, pyruvate, lactose, and glucose. The fermentation end products include ethanol, acetic acid, H, and CO. (Adapted from: http://ijs.sgmjournals.org/content/43/1/41.full.pdf)."xsd:string |
