Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
Municipal solid waste compost contains some cellulosic substances which are highly recalcitrant to enzymatic digestion. Because the process of compost usually occurs in anaerobic circumstance, anaerobic cellulolytic microbes are needed in municipal solid waste compost. In this paper, a strain of anaerobic cellulolytic cocci was isolated from the rumen of Mongolia sheep by an enrichment method with Whatman No. 1 filter paper as the selective substrate. The isolate formed transparent circle on the plate with carboxymethyl cellulose sodium as sole carbon source and was found to degrade filter paper, waste paper and corn stalk in solution. Based on its phenotypical and biochemical identification, as well as gene identification, the bacterium was identified as Ruminococcus flavefaciens and it was designated as strain LYQ.
