The gut microbiome, which is symbiotic within the human
body, assists in human digestion. It plays significant roles
in identifying intestinal disease as well as in maintaining a
healthy body with functional immune and metabolic activities.
To confirm the consistency of fecal intestinal microbial
research, it is necessary to study the changes in intestinal microbial
flora according to the fecal collection solution and
storage period. We collected fecal samples from three healthy
Korean adults. To examine the efficacy of fecal collection solution,
we used NBgene-Gut, OMNIgene-Gut, 70% ethanol
(Ethanol-70%), and RNAlater. The samples were stored for
up to two months at room temperature using three different
methods , and we observed changes in microbial communities
over time. We analyzed clusters of changes in the microbial
flora by observing fecal stock solutions and metagenome
sequencing performed over time. In particular, we confirmed
the profiling of alpha and beta diversity and microbial classification
according to the differences in intestinal environment
among individuals. We also confirmed that the microbial
profile remained stable for two months and that the microbial
profile did not change significantly over time. In addition,
our results suggest the possibility of verifying microbial
profiling even for long-term storage of a single sample. In conclusion,
collecting fecal samples using a stock solution rather
than freezing feces seems to be relatively reproducible and
stable for GUT metagenome analysis. Therefore, stock solution
tubes in intestinal microbial research can be used without
problems.

In the article by Kim et al. that appears in Journal of Microbiology 2012; 50, 354-358. The novel species name Arenimonas
aquaticum should be changed as Arenimonas aquatica because the genus name Arenimonas is of the feminine gender. The
adjective used as specific epithet must be in the feminine gender as well. In addition, type strain NA-09T =KACC14663T should
be changed as type strain NA-09T =KACC14662T.

Abstract

A novel bacterial strain, designated NA-09T, was isolated
from a freshwater sample collected from the Cheonho reservoir,
Republic of Korea. Colonies were creamy-white pigmented,
translucent, and circular with convex shape. The
isolate was Gram-staining negative, strictly aerobic, motile,
and rod-shaped. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed
that strain NA-09T belonged to the genus Arenimonas
and showed the highest sequence similarities with Arenimonas
malthae CC-JY-1T (95.4%), A. oryziterrae YC6267T
(94.9%), A. composti P2-12-1T (94.8%), and A. donghaensis
H03-R19T (94.1%). The major fatty acids were iso-C16:0
(20.8%), iso-C15:0 (16.9%), summed feature 1 (13.2%), and
iso-C16:1ω7c alcohol (10.2%). The major isoprenoid quinone
of the isolate was ubiquionone-8. On the basis of the data
from the polyphasic characterization, the strain NA-09T
represents a novel species, for which the name Arenimonas
aquaticum sp. nov. is proposed (type strain NA-09T =KACC
14663T =NBRC 106550T).
