A new species of gaso-mobile bacterium- Pseudomonas gaso-mobilis SP nov from the air

Abstract

Gaso-mobile bacteria have been identified in the room air in China using U-shaped and S-shaped flasks, suggesting that there may be more species of gaso-mobile bacteria in different regions of the world.  This study was aimed to isolate the gaso-mobile bacteria from the air of Canada. Materials and Methods: Microbes were isolated from the air using U-shaped flasks, cultured in LB media, and characterized based on growth curve, colony formation, suspension capacity, gram staining and rDNA identification. Results: Two new <em>Bacillus gaso-mobilis and Staphylococcus gaso-mobilis</em> strains and a new species of gaso-mobile bacterium <em>Pseudomonas gaso-mobilis sp nov were isolated from the air of Canada. They were penicillin and ampicillin resistant, gram negative and transparent. They had high capacity of suspension and did not form colonies on solid media. They had the ability to automatically move in the air. These results further demonstrate that there are flaws with Louis Pasteur’s S-shaped flask experiment and John Tyndall’s incubation chamber experiment. The results also indicate that the pre-statement that “if a medium is clear there will be no microbe in it” of the three-step logics of Louis Pasteur’s S-shaped flask experiment and John Tyndall’s incubation chamber experiment is false.  Conclusion: There are many different species of gaso-mobile bacteria in different regions of the earth. Mistakes with Louis Pasteur’s S-shaped flask experiment and John Tyndall’s incubation chamber experiment should be seriously corrected. Measurements should be taken to prevent the gaso-mobile bacteria from damaging human life.
