AbstractAbstract PDF
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.

AbstractAbstract PDF
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.

AbstractAbstract PDF
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).
