Sucrose Fermentation by Proteus hauseri

A Tale of Two Novel Proteus Species- Proteus Hauseri and Proteus Penneri

We are reporting two different cases of two new Proteus speciesProteus hauseri and Proteus penneri isolated from two different patients. One case reports a one month old male child with history of diarrhoea since six days. His stool sample was sent for microbiological examination and the second case is of Ante natal care patient with urinary tract infection whose urine was send for microbiologi...

High potential application in bioremediation of selenate by Proteus hauseri strain QW4

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Selenium is essential for biological systems at low concentrations and toxic at higher levels. Heavy metals and metalloids such as selenium are major contaminants in 40% of hazardous waste sites. Thus, bioremediation has been considered as an effective means of cleaning up of selenium-contaminated sites. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, 30 strains were isolated fr...

The fermentation of sucrose by Leuconostoc mesenteroides.

The slime forming Leuconostoc mesnreroides is distributed widely in nature and is apparently ubiquitous in sugar factories. Neill, Hehre, Sugg, and Jaffe (1939) found dextran, a fermentation product of L. meenteroides, in all samples of cp sucrose examined. This organism, long a nuisance in the factory, has in recent years attracted wide interest because of the commercial possibilities of the d...

Draft Genome Sequence of the Bioelectricity-Generating and Dye-Decolorizing Bacterium Proteus hauseri Strain ZMd44

Proteus hauseri ZMd44 (CGMCC 6746), as a crucial biodecolorizing, bioelectricity-generating, and copper-resistant bacterium, is distinguished from the urinary pathogens Proteus penneri and Proteus mirabilis. To further investigate the genetic functions of this strain, the genome sequence and annotation of its open reading frames, which consist of 3,875,927 bp (G+C content, 38.12%), are presente...
