Detection of alternative nitrogenases in aerobic gram-negative nitrogen-fixing bacteria.
Strains of aerobic, microaerobic, nonsymbiotic, and symbiotic dinitrogen-fixing bacteria were screened for the presence of alternative nitrogenase (N2ase) genes by DNA hybridization between genomic DNA and DNA encoding structural genes for components 1 of three different enzymes. A nifDK gene probe was used as a control to test for the presence of the commonly occurring Mo-Fe N2ase, a vnfDGK ge...

The occurrence of aerobic, non-symbiotic, nitroqen-fixing bacteria was determined in samples of soil collecte~l in the various soil zones of Allxrm and Saslcatchewan. Mannitol and sodiuttl betuoate dust-platrs. and mallnit01 solution cultures wiLh subsequent inoculation onto rnannitol agar demonstrated that Asolohnrtt-r were not wirlcspreatl in the Canadian prairie province soils. These r)n)ccr...
متن کاملIsolation of nitrogen-fixing bacteria containing molybdenum-independent nitrogenases from natural environments.
Seven diazotrophs that grow well under Mo-deficient, N(2)-fixing conditions were isolated from a variety of environments. These isolates fall in the gamma subdivision of the class Proteobacteria and have genes that encode the Mo nitrogenase (nitrogenase 1) and the V nitrogenase (nitrogenase 2). Four of the isolates also harbor genes that encode the iron-only nitrogenase (nitrogenase 3).
متن کاملIn vitro activity of ciprofloxacin against aerobic gram-negative bacteria.
For 177 gram-negative isolates, the MICs for ciprofloxacin ranged from 0.02 microgram/ml (Escherichia coli) to 0.31 microgram/ml (Pseudomonas aeruginosa). In time-kill curves, ciprofloxacin at 8 X the MIC almost completely killed 10(6) CFU of P. aeruginosa by 24 h. Ciprofloxacin at 4 X the MIC allowed bacterial regrowth by 24 h, with development of partial resistance to ciprofloxacin.
متن کاملEvaluation of Cathra system for identifying gram negative aerobic bacteria.
The Cathra system is a commercial multipoint inoculation method for the identification of aerobic Gram negative bacteria. The system uses a replicator technique in which 21 different agar media can be inoculated simultaneously with 36 organisms. Identifications are made by use of a special computer database. The performance of this system was compared with that of the API 20E for the identifica...
