چکیده

The characteristics of 25 hydrogen sulfide-negative strains of Citrobacter were studied. The majority of isolates were from the respiratory tract and usually were of indeterminate clinical significance. All strains were highly susceptible to polymyxin B, gentamicin, kanamycin, nalidixic acid, and nitrofurantoin.

Selective medium for hydrogen sulfide production by salmonellae.

Triple Sugar Iron Agar does not reveal hydrogen sulfide production by all Salmonella organisms nor does it permit clear-cut separation of those nonsalmonellae which produce H(2)S. Numerous media with varied combinations of nutrients, inhibitors, selective agents, pH levels, and metal salts were tested for H(2)S production of cultures of Salmonella, Citrobacter, Edwardsiella, Arizona, Proteus, P...

Discrepant Tests for Hydrogen Sulfide.

Kligler and Triple Sugar Iron (TSI) media have been considered to be interchangeable for the purpose of detecting hydrogen sulfide production in the family Enterobacteriaceae. Contrary evidence is presented in this report. From various sources, 11 cultures were isolated which yielded a positive hydrogen sulfide reaction on Kligler medium and a negative reaction on TSI. Biochemically, these cult...

Hydrogen sulfide and organic compounds removal in municipal wastewater using ferrate (VI) and ultraviolet radiation

 Background: In this study, ferrate (VI) and ultraviolet (UV) radiation were employed to remove hydrogen sulfide from municipal wastewater resulting in a reduction in chemical oxygen demand (COD). Although ferrate (VI) and UV have been used individually for the removal of a few pollutants from urban and industrial wastewater, there exists no study to investigate the effectiveness of si...

Medium for the isolation of Aeromonas hydrophila.

A new differential medium, Rimler-Shotts, was tested with 109 isolates representing 13 genera of bacteria obtained from aquatic environments and animals. This medium was effective in presumptive identification of the strains of Aeromonas hydrophila examined, with 94% accuracy. Strains of Citrobacter which were hydrogen sulfide-variable could not be separated from A. hydrophila. This medium was ...

Reducing the effect of salinity and lead on garlic (Allium sativum) seedling roots by improving oxidant defence under selenium and hydrogen sulfide

Selenium and hydrogen sulfide can alleviate the adverse effects of oxidative stress on plants by improving the oxidative defense system. In order to improve the oxidative defense system of garlic under lead and salinity stress by selenium and hydrogen sulfide, a factorial experiment was carried out using selenium and hydrogen sulfide in a completely randomized design with three replications. Ex...
