Research Abstract |
We previously reported the isolation of novel methanogens by using a new cultivation method、 referred to as the coculture method. Here, we extended our coculture method to various anaerobic environmental samples. As a result, we successfully cultivated some uncharacterized methanogens in coculture enrichments and eventually isolated new methanogens, within the order Methanomicrobiales and Methanocellales.
