👉 Desulfosoma is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacteria that belongs to the family Bacteroidetes and genus Desulfosoma. It is a facultative anaerobe and can survive in environments with high levels of carbon dioxide but requires oxygen for growth. Its cells are composed of a single cell wall consisting of cellulose, which forms a gel-like structure. This characteristic makes it suitable for use as a biofilm in various applications such as biosensors and water purification systems.
