Metabolic regulation in glucose-limited chemostat cultures of Escherichia coli.
Glucose-limited chemostat cultures of Escherichia coli, growing at dilution rates above 0.3/hr, continue to grow at the restricted rate after removal of glucose restriction. In a glycogenless strain, the specific rates of increase of mass, protein, and ribonucleic acid (RNA) were equal before and after supplementation with 0.05% glucose and did not increase detectably until after 30 to 60 min. ...
متن کاملIn vitro antimicrobial susceptibility of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans.
The agar dilution technique was used for determination of the antibiotic susceptibilities of 57 oral isolates and 2 nonoral isolates of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans. Tetracycline, minocycline, and chloramphenicol inhibited more than 96% of the strains tested at a concentration of less than or equal to 2 micrograms/ml; 89% of the strains were inhibited by 2 micrograms of carbenicillin pe...
متن کاملEndocarditis caused by Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans.
Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans is a gram-negative coccobacillus which is a very rare cause of bacterial endocarditis. Preexisting cardiac lesions are a main contributing factor, and antibiotic prophylaxis has long been felt necessary before dental or other manipulation to prevent endocarditis. Penicillin in combination with an aminoglycoside has been the most often used treatment regimen....
متن کاملCharacterization of serologically nontypeable Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans isolates.
Our previous studies have shown that Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans isolates of a given arbitrarily primed PCR (AP-PCR) genotype belong to the same serotype (of serotypes a through e). In the present study we investigated whether the AP-PCR genotypes of nonserotypeable A. actinomycetemcomitans isolates match those of the serotypeable isolates. The isolates were additionally characterized ...
متن کاملSecretion of RTX leukotoxin by Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans.
Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, the etiologic agent for localized juvenile periodontitis and certain other human infections, such as endocarditis, expresses a leukotoxin that acts on polymorphonuclear leukocytes and macrophages. Leukotoxin is a member of the highly conserved repeat toxin (RTX) family of bacterial toxins expressed by a variety of pathogenic bacteria. While the RTX toxins o...
