Isolation and presumptive identification of adherent epithelial bacteria ("epimural" bacteria) from the ovine rumen wall.
One hundred sixty-one strains of adherent bacteria were isolated under anaerobic conditions from four sites on the rumen epithelial surface of sheep fed hay or a hay-grain ration. Before isolation of bacteria, rumen tissue was washed six times in an anaerobic dilution solution, and viable bacteria suspended in the washings were counted. Calculation indicated that unattached bacteria would have ...
متن کاملAdherent biofilms in bacterial vaginosis.
OBJECTIVE Bacterial vaginosis is a common infectious disorder. Although known since ancient times, little progress has occurred in identifying causal factors. Our aims were to study the bacterial community structure and the spatial organization of microbiota on the epithelial surfaces of vaginal biopsy specimens. METHODS We investigated the composition and spatial organization of bacteria ass...
متن کاملSeasonal changes in the digesta-adherent rumen bacterial communities of dairy cattle grazing pasture
The complex microbiota that resides within the rumen is responsible for the break-down of plant fibre. The bacteria that attach to ingested plant matter within the rumen are thought to be responsible for initial fibre degradation. Most studies examining the ecology of this important microbiome only offer a 'snapshot' in time. We monitored the diversity of rumen bacteria in four New Zealand dair...
متن کاملQuantitative Evaluation of Bacteria Adherent and in Biofilm on Single-Wall Carbon Nanotube-Coated Surfaces
Biofilm is a common bacterial lifestyle, and it plays a crucial role in human health, causing biofilm-mediated infections. Recently, to counteract biofilm development, new nano-structured biomaterials have been proposed. However, data about the antibacterial properties of nano-structured surfaces are fragmentary and controversial, and, in particular, the susceptibility of nano-structured materi...
متن کاملStudies on Bovine Rumen Bacterial Urease 1
The propert ies of rumen urease were studied. In the absence of high concentrations of dithiothreitol enzyme activity was rapidly lost; in its presence, the enzyme could be solubilized and purified in high yield. Maximum activity was observed between pH 7 and 8.5. The Km for urea with partially purified enzyme was .004 M with Vmax of 300 to 400 #moles/mg/hr. No divalent metal ion requirement or...
