Summary: | The species composition of bacterial community of the drinking tap water and water samples taken at different purification stages of the water conditioning plant at an enterprise producing special drinks has been analyzed. This study involves the analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences and the use of molecular biology methods based on the phylogenetic analysis. The following bacterial species were identified:
Bacillus nanhaiensis, Brevibacterium frigoritolerans
, and
Lysinibacillus fusiformis
. All the studied strains belong to phylum
Firmicutes
, class
Bacilli
representing Gram-positive microorganisms that are not pathogenic to human. The presence of the bacteria investigated in different habitats such as the drinking chlorinated water, in the presence of stress factors (arid climate, high or low temperatures, depleted soil, and the occurrence of disinfectants) indicates their ability to easily adapt to new living conditions expanding their habitat. |
