has now been reclassified as P. pentosaceus. Staphylococci are facultative anaerobes
The genome-sequencing project of P. pento- capable of metabolizing a number of differ-
saceus ATCC 25745 is complete (http:// ent sugars. Under anaerobic conditions, the
genome.jgi-psf.org/draft_microbes/pedpe/ major end product is lactic acid, but acetate,
pedpe.info.html). piruvate, and acetoin are also formed.
Since S. xylosus and S. carnosus are
highly competitive in meat fermentation,
Gram-Positive Catalase-Positive Cocci
present important technological properties,
(GCC+)
and generally lack virulence determinants,
