چکیده

the chitinase producing ability of pseudomonas fluorescens strains viz., pf1, pb2 and fp7 was evaluated in a culture medium with and without a chitin source. the addition of 1% (v/v) chitin in culture medium significantly increased the bacterial population and chitinase activity. among three strains tested, fp7 responded well to the addition of chitin by producing 31.2% increased chitinase in culture. western blot analysis with chitinase antibody detected six and five chitinase isoforms in culture inoculated with fp7 and pf1, respectively.

Pseudomonas fluorescens

nas incognita have been previously described as being able to utilize citronellol, geraniol, and linalool (3, 6). Recently, a 50-megadalton (MDa) plasmid has been associated with the degradation of geraniol (9). In this report we describe the isolation of a Pseudomonas fluorescens s train capable of utilizing linalool as a sole carbon and energy source and demonstrate the presence of a transmis...

Evaluation of Fleroxacin Activity against Established Pseudomonas fluorescens Biofilms.

Scanning confocal laser microscopy (SCLM) and fluorescent molecular probes were used to evaluate the effect of the fluoroquinolone fleroxacin on the architecture of established Pseudomonas fluorescens biofilms. Control P. fluorescens biofilms were heterogeneous, consisting of cell aggregates extending from the attachment surface to maximum measured depths of approximately 90 mum (mean biofilm d...

Characterization and lytic activity of Pseudomonas fluorescens phages from sewage

Pseudomonas fluorescens phages from sewage were tested against P. fluorescens isolates of soil and sewage. The phages were characterized as to host range, morphology, structural proteins and genome fingerprint. Of the seven phages isolated, one was found to be abundant in sewage (5.9×10(7) pfu/mL), having broad host range, and distinct protein and DNA profile when compared to the other six phag...

Antifungal Activity of Soil Chitinolytic Bacilli

Abstract Background and Objective: Chitin, which is a linear polymer of N-acetyl glucosamine residues, has been the most abundant polymer in nature after cellulose. In recent decades, Chitinases have received increased attention because of their wide range of applications, especially in biological control against fungi. Material and Methods: the isolation of bacilli producing chitinolyti...

The kynureninase of Pseudomonas fluorescens.

Kotake and Nakayama (1) observed the conversion of kynurenine to anthranilic acid and alanine by a mammalian liver extract. Subsequently the enzyme responsible for this reaction in the mammal was partly purified (2,3) and the enzyme, prepared from vitamin Be-deficient animals, was shown to require pyridoxal phosphate for its maximal activity (2). During an investigation of tryptophan metabolism...
