Extracellular proteolytic activity of Aeromonas hydrophila complex.

Aeromonas hydrophila

Department of Biology, University of Alabama a t Birmingham, Birmingham, AL 35294-1 170, USA Aeromonas hydrophila, a gastrointestinal pathogen of humans, was shown to exhibit a significant adaptive acid tolerance response (ATR) capable of protecting cells from severe acid at a pH of 3.5. The ATR was induced by exposure to a relatively mild pH level of 5-0 for 20 min. Adaptation required protein...

In vitro activity of cefoperazone against nonfermenters and Aeromonas hydrophila.

The in vitro activity of cefoperazone against 380 strains (33 species and unnamed groups) of nonferenters and 20 strains of Aeromonas hydrophila was studied by a microdilution method of determining minimal inhibitory concentrations. For comparison, the activities of ampicillin, ticarcillin, and cefamandole were simultaneously studied. Cefoperazone was the most active drug against Pseudomonas sp...

Antimicrobial susceptibility of Aeromonas hydrophila.

Minimal inhibitory concentration determinations and disk diffusion and Autobac 1 susceptibility tests were performed on 22 strains of Aeromonas hydrophila. Eleven of the strains had discrepancies between Autobac and disk diffusion or minimal inhibitory concentration results. These discrepancies occurred with the beta-lactam antibiotics, primarily carbenicillin and cephalothin. It is recommended...

Aspartate Transcarbamoylase of Aeromonas Hydrophila

Phloroglucinol derivatives from Aeromonas hydrophila.

greenhouse-grown red pine seedling, Pinus resinosa, when cultured on malt agar or potato dextrose agar (PDA) showed inhibitory activity against selected test fungi. Sensitive fungi included Ceratocystis ulmi (BUISM.) C. MOREAU, Pythium spp., Rhizoctonia solani KUHN, Cylindrocarpon sp., Fusarium oxysporum SCHLECT., and Sirococcus strobilinus PREUSS. When grown on PDA, a colorless crystalline sol...
