Methanogenic enrichments catabolizing 13 mM phenylacetate or 4 mM phenol were established at 37C, using a 10% inoculum from a municipal anaerobic digester. By using agar roll tubes of the basal medium plus 0.1% yeast extract-25 mM fumarate, a hydrogenotrophic lawn ofWolinella succinogenes and phenol or phenylacetate, strains P-2 and PA-1, respectively, were isolated in coculture withW. succinogenes. With the lawn deleted, PA-1 was isolated in pure culture. Strain P-2 is apparently a new species of anaerobic, motile, gram-negative, spindle-shaped, small rod that as yet has been grown only in coculture withW. succinogenes. It used phenol, hydrocinnamate, benzoate, and phenylacetate as energy sources. Product recovery by the coculture, per mole of phenol and 4.4 mol of fumarate used, included 2.03, 0.12, 0.08, and 3.23 mol, respectively, of acetate, propionate, butyrate, and succinate. Carbon recovery was 75% and H recovery was 80%, although CO2 and a few other possible products were not determined. That P-2 is an obligate proton-reducing acetogen and possible pathways for its degradation of phenol are discussed. Strain PA-1 is apparently a new species of anaerobic, motile, relatively small, gram-negative rod. It utilized compounds such as phenylacetate, hydrocinnamate, benzoate, phenol, resorcinol, gallate, 4-aminophenol, 2-aminobenzoate, pyruvate, Casamino Acids, and aspartate as energy sources in coculture withW. succinogenes. Per mole of phenylacetate and 1.44 mol of fumarate used, 1.04, 0.53, and 0.78 mol of acetate, propionate, and succinate, respectively, were recovered from the coculture. Only about 50% of the carbon and H were recovered. In coculture withMethanospirillum hungatei , 0.96 mol of acetate and 0.25 mol of methane were recovered per mol of pyruvate used; 0.90 mol of acetate and 0.33 mol of methane, per mol of fumarate used; 0.93 mol of acetate and 0.54 mol of methane, per mol of aspartate used; and 1.71 mol of acetate and 0.57 mol of methane, per mol of glucose used. Carbon and H recoveries, assuming CO2 and ammonia were produced in stoichiometric amounts, were 97 and 98% for pyruvate, 72.5 and 82% for fumarate, 96.5 and 98% for aspartate, and 61.8 and 76% for glucose. No explanation such as contamination could be found for the fact that the coculture PA-1 plusWolinella sp. did not use glucose; after growth withM. hungatei on pyruvate, however, the latter coculture used glucose. The PA-1 pure culture produced 0.86 mol of propionate per mol of succinate used during growth. PA-1 produced a small amount of H2 . Strain PA-1 is the most versatile anaerobic bacterium yet known that catabolizes monobenzenoids in the absence of electron acceptors such as sulfate or nitrate.
