Lecithinase production by gramnegative bacteria.
Lecithinase production by microorganisms has been investigated in an attempt to use it in the classification of bacteria, and to associate formation with toxicity and virulence. The first record of this reaction was made when Nagler (1939) and Seifert (1939) observed, independently, the formation of an opalescence in human serum by the a toxin of Clostridium perfringens. It was soon found that ...
متن کاملOuter-membrane pore-forming proteins in gram-negative anaerobic bacteria.
The outer-membrane proteins (OMPs) of bacteria function as the dynamic interface between the bacterium and its surroundings and are involved in maintenance of cell structure, binding a variety of substances, adhesion to other cells, and regulation of transport of both nutrients and bactericidal agents. There is a vast amount of information about aerobic OMPs and their roles in immunogenicity, v...
متن کاملProteomic Analysis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae Biofilms Shows Shift to Anaerobic Respiration and Changes in Nutrient Transport and Outermembrane Proteins
Neisseria gonorrhoeae, the causative agent of gonorrhea, can form biofilms in vitro and in vivo. In biofilms, the organism is more resistant to antibiotic treatment and can serve as a reservoir for chronic infection. We have used stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) to compare protein expression in biofilm and planktonic organisms. Two parallel populations of N. gonorr...
متن کاملAntibacterial efficacy of disinfectants against some gramnegative bacteria.
The antibacterial effect of 11 new commercially manufactured disinfectants on clinical isolates of Salmonella typhimurium DT104, Serratia marcescens and Pseudomonas aeruginosa was studied. The substances tested represented six pure quaternary ammonium substances (QAS) and five QAS combined with other ingredients. The antibacterial efficacy was characterized by influencing the growth of bacteria...
متن کاملThe Pathogenic Anaerobic Bacteria
the Amterican Journal of Surgery (102, 354:1961). To my mind, the Mayo Clinic experience with 1,181 cases, with the competent observers serving as authors, has done no less than provide a very workable and practical guide to cancer types and to the methods of treatment for the various types (by histological classification as well as clinical staging). It is fortunate that this paper follows a p...
