Morphology

Marinobacter hydrocarbonoclasticus

CELLULAR

Staining	Gram negative
Morphology	rod shaped (0.3-0.6 x 2.0-3.0 um) have numerous surface blebs when grown on eicosane in mineral medium
Motility	motile by means of a single, unsheathed polar flagellun in media containing 0.2-1 M NaCl. Cells are unflagellated in media with different concentrations of NaCl.

Growth Parameters

Marinobacter hydrocarbonoclasticus

PHYSIOLOGICAL

Tropism	chemoorganotroph
Oxygen	strict aerobe with a respiratory metabolism but grow anaerobically with nitrate or on succinate, citrate or acetate but not on glucose
pH
Temperature	range 10- 45oC, optimum 32 oC
Requirements	Extremely halotolerant can can grow in NaCl conentrations ranging from 0.08-3.5 M. HAVE AN ABSOLUTE REQUIREMENT FOR THE SOIDUM ION
Products	grow on acetate, butyrate, caproate, succinate, fumarate, adipate, DL-lactate, and citrate as the sole carbon source but not on carbohydrates and amino acids
Enzymes	oxidase, cytochrome oxidase, catalase tweenase and lecithinase positive
Unique features	Degrader a large variety of aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons and produce a nondialyzabvle bioemulsifier when grown on hydrocarbons
