Sugar metabolism was determined by commercial API 20A (bioMe’rieux) and API 50 CH tests (bioMe´rieux) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Gram-stain reaction was tested according to Cappuccino and Sherman’s method in Microbiology: A Laboratory Manual (6th Edition). An antibiotic susceptibility test was also performed using the disc diffusion method in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Api 50ch
The API 50CH is a biochemical identification system for the identification of bacterial species. It consists of a series of 50 microtubes containing dehydrated substrates for the detection of bacterial enzymatic activities. The API 50CH allows for the rapid and standardized identification of a wide range of bacterial species.

Characterization of Bacillus andreraoultii
API ZYM, API 20 NE and API 50 CH (bioMérieux) gallery systems were used to perform biochemical assays. Oxidase (Becton Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) and catalase assays (bioMérieux) were done separately. The antibiotic susceptibility was tested using SirScan Discs antibiotics (i2a, Montpellier, France).

Furthermore, three semi-quantitative standardized micro-methods of Analytical Profile Index (API®, bioMérieux®) tests: API® 20A, API® 50 CH, and API® ZYM were used, according to the manufacturer’s instructions16 , in order to study carbohydrate metabolism and enzymatic activities.
Fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) analysis was explored by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry, as previously reported17 (link), 18 . FAMEs were separated using an Elite 5-MS column and monitored by mass spectrometry (Clarus 500—SQ 8 S, Perkin Elmer®, Courtaboeuf, France). Obtained spectra were compared with those contained in the repertory databases using MS Search 2.0 operated with the Standard Reference Database 1A (National Institute of Standards and Technology-NIST, Gaithersburg, USA), and FAMEs mass spectral database (Wiley, Chichester, UK).
Antibiotic Susceptibility and Biochemical Profiling of Awa-1
The commercially available API ZYM, API 50CH, and API 20 NE strips (BioMerieux, Marcy-l'Etoile, France) were used for biochemical tests according to the manufacturer's instructions. The time of incubation was 4 h for API ZYM and 48 h for the others.
Growth of the strain Awa-1T was tested with different growth temperatures (25°C, 30°C, 37°C, 45°C) under aerobic conditions and also in anaerobic and microaerophilic atmospheres, created using AnaeroGenTM (Atmosphere Generation Systems, Dardily, France) and anaerobic jars (Mitsubishi) with GENbag microaer system (BioMerieux), respectively.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
