    Five strains of phytase-producing, gram-negative, non-spore-forming, non-motile, small, stout, rod-shaped, strictly anaerobic, fermentative bacteria were isolated from the rumens of cattle in Malaysia. All five strains had morphological, physiological and biochemical features in common. Although these strains had many physiological and biochemical characteristics that were identical to those of the Mitsuokella multacida type strain (ATCC 27723T), they could be distinguished from this species by means of the following characteristics: a smaller cell size (1.2-2.4 microm long and 0.6-0.8 microm wide); a lower final pH value (3.8-4.0) in peptone/yeast extract/glucose broth; inhibition by 0.001% brilliant green; insensitivity to kanamycin (100 microg ml(-1)) and penicillin (10 microg ml(-1)); a higher optimum growth temperature (approx. 42 degrees C); the ability to grow at 45 and 47 degrees C; the ability to ferment glycerol, sorbitol and amidon; and the inability to ferment mannitol, rhamnose, D-tagatose and melezitose. The G+C content of the type strain (M 9T) of these five strains was 56.9 mol%. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of type strain M 9T indicated that the strain falls within the genus Mitsuokella. The sequence similarity between type strain M 9T and Mitsuokella multacida was 98.7%. The DNA-DNA relatedness between type strain M 9T and Mitsuokella multacida type strain DSM 20544T (= ATCC 27723T) was 63.8%, indicating that, in spite of a high level of similarity for the 16S rRNA gene sequence, type strain M 9T is independent of Mitsuokella multacida at the species level. On the basis of these results, a new species, Mitsuokella jalaludinii sp. nov., is proposed for these strains. The type strain is M 9T (= DSM 13811T = ATCC BAA-307T).

    We evaluated the efficacy of supplementation of active Mitsuokella jalaludinii culture (AMJC) on the growth performance, nutrient use, and mineral concentrations in tibia bone and plasma of broiler chickens fed corn-soybean meal diets. Dietary treatments included low-nonphytate P (NPP) feed (containing 0.24% and 0.232% NPP for chicks from 1 to 21 and 22 to 42 d of age, respectively), low-NPP feed added with different levels of AMJC (equivalent to 250, 500, 750, and 1,000 U phytase/kg of feed), and normal-NPP feed (containing 0.46 and 0.354% NPP for chicks from 1 to 21 and 22 to 42 d of age, respectively). Supplementation of AMJC to low-NPP feed increased (P < 0.05) weight gain and feed intake and decreased (P < 0.05) feed:gain ratio of chickens during the whole experiment (Days 1 to 42). Supplementation of AMJC increased (P < 0.05) the AME value, digestibility of DM and CP, and retention of P, Ca, and Cu. Mn retention in broilers was only increased (P < 0.05) by AMJC supplementation from 18 to 20 d of age, and Zn retention was improved (P < 0.05) only at a high level of AMJC (equivalent to 1,000 U phytase/kg of feed) supplementation. Chicks fed low-NPP feed added with AMJC had similar tibia ash percentages as those fed the normal-NPP diet. Generally, supplementing AMJC to low-NPP feed increased (P < 0.05) Ca, decreased significantly (P < 0.05) Mn and Cu, but did not affect Zn and P concentrations in tibia ash. Supplementing AMJC also increased (P < 0.05) plasma P but had no effect on plasma Ca or Mn. Plasma Zn concentration was increased only when a high level of AMJC (equivalent to 1,000 U phytase/kg of feed) was used. In conclusion, AMJC supplementation to low-NPP feed improved growth performance; AME value; digestibility of CP and DM; use of Ca, P, and Cu; and bone mineralization.

    The effects of different carbon and nitrogen sources on phytase production by Mitsuokella jalaludinii were evaluated and the optimization of rice bran (RB) and soybean milk (SM) concentrations in the medium for phytase production was also determined.
