Abstract

Cellulolytic aerobic bacteria were isolated from activated sludge systems. Of the media tested for enumeration, only filter paper media gave reliable counts. Five isolates were studied further for characterization. It was found that one strain (DK) belonged to the genus Cellulomonas. The other four strains expressed similarity to the genus Pseudomonas. The different characteristics that were studied, however, do not permit them to be identified with any recognized species. Based on certain characters we believe that they are alcaligenes‐like pseudomonads.
