A bacterial strain designated E-48T was isolated from Lake Elmenteita, an alkaline saline lake within the East African rift valley. The cells were Gram-negative, motile, non-spore forming rods. Growth was observed at a pH range between 6.0 and 13.0 (optimum pH 9.5), salt concentration (w/v) up to 20% (optimum 5%) and the temperature for growth was between 14.0-44 °C (optimum temperature 36 °C).
