microbacteriumn.

Brit.

/ˌmʌɪkrə(ʊ)bakˈtɪərɪəm/, U.S.

/ˈˌmaɪkroʊbækˈtɪriəm/

Inflections: Plural microbacteria.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; modelled on a German lexical item. Etymons: micro- comb. form, bacterium n.

Etymology: < micro- comb. form + bacterium n., after German Mikrobakterie (F. Cohn 1872, in Beiträge zur Biol. der Pflanzen). In sense 2, after scientific Latin Microbacterium, genus name (S. Orla-Jensen Lactic Acid Bacilli (1919) 179).

Microbiology.

1. Any small, esp. rod-shaped, bacterium. Now rare.

1873 Q. Jrnl. Microsc. Sci. 13 158 The second tribe [of Cohn], Microbacteria, also includes but one genus, viz. Bacterium.

1880 G. M. Sternberg tr. A. Magnin Bacteria i. 30 Hoffmann recognizes in addition to the monera, only the microbacteria, the mesobacteria, and the megabacteria.

1884 W. B. Grove Synopsis Bacteria & Yeast Fungi 106 Microbacteria: small cylindrical or elliptic rods, occurring singly or in pairs or in zooglœa masses.

1985 Jrnl. Oral & Maxillofacial Surg. 43 510 The presence of these microbacteria [sc. spirochetes and fusobacteria] may provide a clue as to the late appearance, particular location, and singular clinical picture of pericoronitis.

1993 K. S. Robinson Green Mars (new ed.) 164 On Earth these regions were first colonised by microbacteria and lichen.

2. spec. Any member of the genus Microbacterium, comprising very small, chiefly saprophytic, coryneform Gram-positive rods; esp. M. lacticum, a heat-resistant member of the bacterial flora of milk. Also (in form Microbacterium): the genus itself.

1921 P. S. Arup tr. S. Orla-Jensen Dairy Bacteriol. ii. 38 The microbacteria are very small rods, usually only 0·3 to 0·4 μ thick.
