Research Abstract |
The aim of this study was to reveal the diversity and conservation of mycolic acid containing actinomycete such as Nocardia and Mycobacterium from subtropical area in Japan. Forest and cultivated field soil samples were collected from Iriomote island, Okinawa, Japan. The isolates belonging to the genus Nocardia and Mycobacterium were selectively isolated using sucrose-gradient centrifugation method and Oil-SDS emulsification method. Twelve species of Nocardia and two species of Mycobacterium was detected. Selective isolation method for the genus Rhodococcus was developed as combined use of antibiotics(fradiomycine ; 20 mg/L and novobiocin ; 10 mg/L) and pretreatment of soil with alkaline-SDS solution. Some of isolates were suspected as new species and were deposited in NITE-Biological Resource Center for microbial conservation
