Twenty-two species of bacteria were isolated from Linum usitatissimum stored for retting. Achromobacter parvulus, Clostridium beijerinckii, C. saprogenes, C. saccharoacetoperbutylicum, C. perenne, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa and its achromogenic variety are retting agents. The last species mentioned performs the retting in only 72 hr. This is the first time A. parvulus has been shown to be a retting agent.
从用于沤麻的亚麻中分离出了22种细菌。微小无色杆菌、拜氏梭菌、产腐梭菌、糖乙酰丁酸梭菌、多年生梭菌以及铜绿假单胞菌及其非产色变种都是沤麻剂。最后提到的那种细菌在仅72小时内就能完成沤麻过程。这是首次证明微小无色杆菌是一种沤麻剂。
