Gentamicin interaction with Pseudomonas aeruginosa cell envelope.
Gentamicin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic known to inhibit protein synthesis, had a detrimental effect on the integrity of the cell wall of Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 9027 (a susceptible strain) as shown by electron microscopy using negative-staining, thin-sectioning, and freeze-fracture techniques. The disruption occurred in a sequential manner, moving from the outer membrane to the inner memb...
متن کاملVascular permeability factor of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
The production of vascular permeability factor (PF) by certain strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been demonstrated in rabbits injected intradermally with culture filtrates followed by intravenous injection with Pontamine Sky Blue 6BX. The dose-response curve was found to be rectilinear when lesion diameters, within the range of 10 to 20 mm, were plotted against log dose. Thus, PF in test fi...
متن کاملRole of chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in airway mucosal permeability.
The role of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in airway mucosal permeability was studied in 16 patients with chronic bronchitis by measuring the amounts of radiolabeled albumin in sputum. One group (A) consisted of six patients (two female, four male, 53 +/- 6 years, SEM) with chronic P aeruginosa infection for 5 +/- 0.9 years. Another group (B) consisted of ten patients (five female, five male,...
متن کاملTo beep or not to beep page 1 To beep or not to beep: Obtaining accurate reports about awareness
We begin by accepting that introspective evidence is important to cognitive science. However, as its history shows, introspection is risky, so methods should be used that minimize those risks. We argue that there are 13 ways that a beeper can reduce those risks, dividing those ways into three categories: time sampling per se, minimizing the reactive disturbance of evanescent phenomena, and aidi...
متن کاملOuter membrane permeability in Pseudomonas aeruginosa: comparison of a wild-type with an antibiotic-supersusceptible mutant.
The Pseudomonas aeruginosa mutant Z61 has been shown to be highly supersusceptible to a wide range of antibiotics, including beta-lactams, aminoglycosides, rifampin, tetracycline, and chloramphenicol (W. Zimmerman, Int. J. Clin. Pharmacol. Biopharm. 17:131-134, 1979). Spontaneous revertants were isolated, using gentamicin or carbenicillin as selective agents, and shown to have two patterns of s...
