Thermal Injury and Recovery of Streptococcus faecalis

aureus, and Streptococcus faecalis

SYNOPSIS The incidence of trimethoprim resistance in coliforms and multiresistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus isolated in Bristol from 1970 to 1972 is low-2-3 and 1 0% respectively. The resistance is probably intrinsic; there is no evidence that it is R-factor or plasmid mediated. A single mechanism that confers resistance to both trimethoprim and sulphamethoxazole has not been detected. N...

Phospholipids of Streptococcus faecalis.

Autoradiograms of total lipid extracts from Streptococcus faecalis ATCC 9790, harvested in the stationary phase from a medium containing (32)P-orthophosphate, showed six major spots. The corresponding compounds were identified as diphosphatidylglycerol (possibly with a penta acyl structure); phosphatidylglycerol; a provisionally identified mixture of alanylphosphatidylglycerol and of the 2'-lys...

Bacteriol. 85:168-176. 1963.-The membrane fraction of Streptococcus faecalis (ATCC 9790) was isolated and purified, by a variety of procedures, from cultures that were grown under closely controll...

Hydroxylysine metabolism in Streptococcus faecalis.

Streptococcus faecalis proton gradients and tetracycline transport.

The transport of chlortetracycline by Streptococcus faecalis is energy dependent. Addition of glucose to energy-depleted cells enhances both the transport rates and accumulation levels. Transport rates can be altered independently of glucose by treating cells with ionophores that increase or decrease the proton gradient. The transport of the antibiotic is linked only to the transmembrane pH dif...
