Enteric Bacteria in Aquatic Ecosystems
were prepared from two enteric bacterial species, Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecalis. Counts of CFU of NSB and RSB and total numbers of RSB and FLB were monitored over time, both in the presence and in the absence of natural microbiota. In the presence of natural microbiota, no differences were observed between CFU counts of NSB and RSB, but RSB total numbers were 1 to 4 orders of magni...
متن کاملHow low can you go? Impacts of a low-flow disturbance on aquatic insect communities.
The natural hydrology of streams and rivers is being extensively modified by human activities. Water diversion, dam construction, and climate change have the potential to increase the frequency and intensity of low-flow events. Flow is a dominant force structuring stream aquatic insect communities, but the impacts of water diversion are poorly understood. Here we report results of an experiment...
متن کاملCloning and Characterization of a mer Operon From Natural Aquatic Bacteria
Mercury is a highly toxic element and has caused numerous cases of human toxicity throughout history. Methylmercury is the most toxic form of mercury and bioaccumulates in fish consumed by humans. Mercury resistant bacteria exist in nature that have the ability to detoxify methylmercury by a two-enzyme system encoded on the mer operon. Currently only mer operons cloned from clinical isolates ar...
متن کاملIdentification of bacteria from aquatic animals
A wide range of aquatic animal species are cultured for human consumption, the fashion industry, research purposes or re-stocking natural populations. Each host species may be colonised by bacterial saprophytes or infected with pathogens that have specific growth requirements encompassing temperature, salinity, trace elements or ions. To ensure successful culture and identification of potential...
