Draft Genome Sequence of Brevibacillus laterosporus OSY-I1, a Strain That Produces Brevibacillin, Which Combats Drug-Resistant Gram-Positive Bacteria
Brevibacillus laterosporus OSY-I1 is a Gram-positive spore-forming bacterium isolated from soil. The bacterium produces brevibacillin, an antimicrobial lipopeptide effective against several drug-resistant Gram-positive bacteria. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of the strain OSY-I1 and the gene cluster responsible for the biosynthesis of brevibacillin.
متن کاملIsolation of anthracene resistant positive gram bacteria from Imam Khomeini Port oil polluted sediments
Today's most of microorganisms are used for purification of hazard waste such as municipal and industrial waste water and oil contaminants. In this study 2 bacterial species were isolated and purified in hydrocarbon (anthracene) containing media from oil polluted sediment of Imam Khomeini port. Bacillus pasteurii and Amphibacillus xylanus species were identified as indicator degrading bacteria ...
متن کاملIsolation of Gram-positive Bacteria from Different Sources and Evaluation of their Probiotic Properties
Introduction: Probiotics are defined as live non-pathogenic microorganisms and if administered in adequate amounts, can have beneficial effects on their hosts. This study aimed to isolate Gram-positive bacteria from different sources and to evaluate their probiotic properties. Methods: We obtained five samples from various sources including yogurt, infant feces, cheese, and soil under aseptic m...
متن کاملEfficacy of Amikacin and Imipenem Against Multi-Drug Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria Isolated From Wound Infections
Background and Objective: Gram-negative pathogens are considered the common cause of wound infections associated with increased mortality and morbidity rates. Antibiotics combination has been used to overcome this problem. Aims: In this study, we identify Gram-negative pathogens found in wound infections and assess the in-vitro efficacy of a combination of amikacin and imipenem against the resi...
متن کاملAntimicrobial-resistant, Gram-positive bacteria among patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis.
Numerous antimicrobial-resistant pathogens (ARPs) have emerged among patients who undergo chronic hemodialysis (CHD), including vancomycin-resistant enterococci, vancomycin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci, Staphylococcus aureus with reduced susceptibility to vancomycin, and linezolid-resistant S. aureus. In June 2002, the first isolate of vancomycin-resistant S. aureus (minimum inhib...
