Catabolism of serine by Pediococcus acidilactici and Pediococcus pentosaceus.
The ability to produce diacetyl from pyruvate and l-serine was studied in various strains of Pediococcus pentosaceus and Pediococcus acidilactici isolated from cheese. After being incubated on both substrates, only P. pentosaceus produced significant amounts of diacetyl. This property correlated with measurable serine dehydratase activity in cell extracts. A gene encoding the serine dehydratase...
متن کاملSepticemia caused by vancomycin-resistant Pediococcus acidilactici.
A case of septicemia caused by vancomycin-resistant Pediococcus acidilactici is discussed. This appears to be the first reported case of septicemia caused by this organism. The characteristics and antimicrobial susceptibilities of this organism are described.
متن کاملPediococcus acidilactici pneumonitis and bacteremia in a pregnant woman.
Pediococci are homofermentative, gram-positive, nonmotile, catalase-negative facultative anaerobes of the family Streptococcaceae and are used in the biotechnology and food industries (1, 2, 7). The ecologic niche of pediococci in humans appears to be the enteral tract (7). Although pediococci have been described as harmless bacteria (5), they have been infrequently recovered from the human res...
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibility of Pediococcus spp. and genetic basis of macrolide resistance in Pediococcus acidilactici HM3020.
We determined the MICs of 28 antimicrobial agents against 36 clinical strains of Pediococcus spp. (25 P. acidilactici, 9 P. pentosaceus, and 2 P. urinaeequi strains). Penicillin G, imipenem, gentamicin, netilmicin, erythromycin, clindamycin, rifampin, chloramphenicol, daptomycin, and ramoplanin were the most active. All strains of P. acidilactici were susceptible to novobiocin, whereas all isol...
متن کاملAssessment of Pediococcus acidilactici as a Potential Silage Inoculant.
Eighteen Pediococcus strains were screened for their potential as silage inoculants. Pediococcus acidilactici G24 was found to be the most suitable, exhibiting a short lag phase on both glucose and fructose, a rapid rate of acid production, a high sugar-to-lactate conversion efficiency, no detectable breakdown of proteins or lactic acid, and the ability to grow within a broad range of pH and te...
