Helicobacter pylori can be induced to assume the morphology of Helicobacter heilmannii.
Cultures of Helicobacter pylori obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (strain 43504) were grown as isolated colonies or lawns on blood agar plates and in broth culture with constant shaking. Examination of bacterial growth with Gram-stained fixed preparation and differential interference contrast microscopy on wet preparations revealed that bacteria grown on blood agar plates had a...
متن کاملPhlebotomus orientalis Sand Flies from Two Geographically Distant Ethiopian Localities: Biology, Genetic Analyses and Susceptibility to Leishmania donovani
BACKGROUND Phlebotomus orientalis Parrot (Diptera: Psychodidae) is the main vector of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by Leishmania donovani in East Africa. Here we report on life cycle parameters and susceptibility to L. donovani of two P. orientalis colonies originating from different sites in Ethiopia: a non-endemic site in the lowlands - Melka Werer (MW), and an endemic focus of human VL...
متن کاملStudies of the L-forms of Clostridium perfringens. I. Relationship of colony morphology and reversibility.
The L-forms of Clostridium perfringens were first reported by Dienes (1950). He described this form as minute, soft, pleomorphic colonies which developed when C. perfringens were grown on penicillin-treated horse serum agar plates. The reversion of L-colonies to bacterial forms has not been reported for C. perfringens. They have been observed in strains of Proteus (Dienes, 1949), Salmonellae (W...
متن کاملEvaluation of Blood agar micro-titer plates for culturing Leishmania parasites to titrate the parasite burden in spleen and peripheral blood of VL patients
Serial dilutions of blood and spleen biopsy specimen, plated on NNN-blood agar using micro-titer culture plates is a sensitive and reproducible method for detection and growth of Leishmania parasites. Plates could easily be monitored and growth rapidly detected. Moreover, parasite number may be estimated using this technique. Key wordsvisceral leishmaniasis, peripheral blood, splenic biopsies, ...
متن کاملUrea restrains swarming of Proteus mirabilis.
In veterinary microbiology, samples taken from ears or wounds of dogs and cats are often contaminated by Proteus mirabilis. P. mirabilis swarms over the entire plate culture of these samples, making it almost impossible to isolate single colonies of other bacterial species present in the sample. Various compounds, like p-nitrophenyl glycerin and activated charcoal, abolish the swarming of Prote...
