Cultivation and visualization of mycobacteria on molecular filter membranes.
The molecular filter membrane (MF) was developed for the recovery of small numbers of bacterial contminants in water and air (Goets, 1953a,b; McKee et al., 1953). A number of pathogenic bacteria, including the tubercle bacillus, were grown on these filters by Orlando and Bolduan (1953). These membranes are worthy of further study in the cultivation of mycobacteria. The possible advantages of th...
متن کاملThe Action of Bacitracin and Subtilin on Treponema pallidum in Vitro and in Vivo.
E"citracin is an antibacterial substance discovered by Johnson, Anker, and Meleney (1945) in culture filtrates of the so-called Tracy strain of Bacillus subtilis. The toxicity of the drug and its absorption and excretion in dogs have been described by Scudi and his coworkers (Scudi and Antopol, 1947; Scudi, Clift, and Krueger, 1947). The blood levels obtained after the intramuscular administrat...
متن کاملThe similarity in action of bacitracin and penicillin on the staphylococcus.
Gale and his group have shown that (1) staphylococci grown "deficient" in glutamic acid can concentrate the free amino acid inside the cells, provided a source of eneigy is present (Gale, 1947; Taylor, 1947); (2) penicillin, in growthinhibitory amounts, prevents the uptake of glutamic acid by staphylococci if the organisms are first grown for a short period in the presence of the antibiotic (Ga...
متن کاملSome differences in the action of penicillin, bacitracin, and vancomycin on Bacillus megaterium.
Hancock, R. (Harvard Medical School, Boston, Mass.), and P. C. Fitz-James. Some differences in the action of penicillin, bacitracin, and vancomycin on Bacillus megaterium. J. Bacteriol. 87:1044-1050. 1964.-Penicillin and cycloserine do not inhibit the growth of protoplasts of Bacillus megaterium, indicating that inhibition of cell-wall synthesis is the only significant process by which they inh...
متن کاملAn EPR investigation of surfactant action on bacterial membranes.
The effects of the surfactants, alcohol ethoxylate, amine ethoxylate, amine oxide and SDS on cell membranes were investigated using the lipid soluble spin label 5-doxyl stearic acid (5-DS). Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy revealed that the action of the surfactants was to significantly increase membrane fluidity of Proteus mirabilis, Staphylococcus aureus and Saccharomyces ce...
