This microbe was discovered in 1868. It 's first names species was Zoogloea ramigera.
Importance to Microbiology
Phylogeny
Kingdom: Bacteria ,Phylum: Proteobacteria ,Class: Betaproteobacteria ,Order: Rhodocycales ,Genus: Zoogloea
History
Zoogloea can be found free-living in fresh waters that have been organically polluted. It can also grow in waste-water treatment at all levels. Zoogloea are aerobic, chemoorganotrophic. For energy they use oxidative metabolism. Zoogloea has been studied as a pure culture.
Morphology
Zoogloea range range in size between 0.5 um to 1.3. They are normally a rod-shape with flagellum.
Genome Sequence
G/C is roughly 64.5%
Application
Zoogloea plays an important role in waste-water treatment because it is capable of lowering demand for biological oxygen. It also has the capable of enhancing the formation of sludge.
