A simplified plate method for detecting gelatine-liquefying bacteria.
Frazier (1926) described a plate method of testing for gelatine liquefaction. The gelatine was incorporated in a low-peptone agar medium. After growing the organism on the medium, the occurrence of digestion was shown by treating the plates with acid mercuric chloride or tannic acid. Frazier claimed that his method was more sensitive and gave quicker results than the usual gelatine " stab" meth...
متن کاملStaphylococcal Enterotoxins
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a Gram positive bacterium that is carried by about one third of the general population and is responsible for common and serious diseases. These diseases include food poisoning and toxic shock syndrome, which are caused by exotoxins produced by S. aureus. Of the more than 20 Staphylococcal enterotoxins, SEA and SEB are the best characterized and are also reg...
متن کاملChromatofocusing: a new method for purification of staphylococcal enterotoxins B and C1.
A new chromatographic procedure was developed which obtained highly purified preparations of staphylococcal enterotoxins B and C1 in yields of 60% from cultures of Staphylococcus aureus and which is faster than any of the separation methods used previously. The procedure involves chromatography on carboxymethylcellulose, removal of alpha-toxin by adsorption to rabbit erythrocyte membranes, and ...
متن کاملSimplified agar plate method for quantifying viable bacteria.
We have developed a simple and reproducible technique that we have termed “track dilution” for enumerating viable bacteria, which reduces time and materials required compared to standard agar plate colony counting methods. Many microbiological applications require an accurate determination of bacterial numbers prior to inoculation into, or subsequent to their isolation from, experimental models...
متن کاملFrequency of staphylococcal lysozyme production tested by plate method.
Lysozyme production is a frequent property of staphylococcal strains isolated from various sources; all 503 tested strains of Staphylococcus aureus and 13 out of 35 strains of Staphylococcus epidermidis produced an enzyme lysing Micrococcus lysodeikticus as tested by a modified plate method. Lysozyme production by staphylococci is more frequent than the production of free coagulase, clumping fa...
