Реферат: An isolated Acidovorax temperans H+ bacterium having the following characteristics: Gram negative; substantially rod shaped cells; colonies of substantially rough from; capable of growth in/on R2A, R2, nutrient and/or terrific media at 28°C; intracellular presence of poly B-hydroxybutyrate as observed using Sudan black staining of cells grown in terrific broth with aeration; mega-pili on the surface as observed by Tem in cells grown in R2A agar; paracrystalline surface layers as observed by TEM in cells grown on R2A agar; a defined 16S rRNA; and capable of forming biofilms as observed using crystal-violet staining of cells grown in R2 broth. A method of promoting the formation of a biofilm in a composition comprising at least the step of adding the Acidovorax bacteria to the composition; a method of water treatment including at least the step of adding the Acidovorax bacteria to the water treatment system; a method of predicting the likelihood of bacteria in a composition to flocculate or form a biofilm comprising at least the step of detecting the presence of the Acidovorax bacteria; and Acidovorax temperans H+ characterised by the deposit N<03-35786.
