Carbohydrate starvation causes a metabolically active but nonculturable state in Lactococcus lactis.
This study characterized the ability of lactococci to become nonculturable under carbohydrate starvation while maintaining metabolic activity. We determined the changes in physiological parameters and extracellular substrate levels of multiple lactococcal strains under a number of environmental conditions along with whole-genome expression profiles. Three distinct phases were observed, logarith...
متن کاملInfluence of carbohydrate starvation and arginine on culturability and amino acid utilization of lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis.
Two strains of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis were used to determine the influence of lactose and arginine on viability and amino acid use during carbohydrate starvation. Lactose provided energy for logarithmic-phase growth, and amino acids such as arginine provided energy after carbohydrate exhaustion. Survival time, cell numbers, and ATP concentrations increased with the addition of arginin...
متن کاملResuscitation of viable but nonculturable cells of Vibrio parahaemolyticus induced at low temperature under starvation.
Vibrio parahaemolyticus is known to exist in a viable but nonculturable state when incubated at low temperature under starvation. It has long been debated whether the culturable cells which appear after temperature upshift are the result of true resuscitation or regrowth of a few residual culturable cells. Starved V. parahaemolyticus cells at 4 degrees C reached the nonculturable stage in about...
متن کاملInduction of Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium into the viable but nonculturable state following chlorination of wastewater.
We examined the effects of chlorine disinfection on Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium in secondary-treated wastewater to determine whether such treatment might induce these bacteria into the viable but nonculturable (VBNC) state. In this state, cells lose culturability but retain viability and the potential to revert to the metabolically active and infectious state. To examine the eff...
متن کاملCharacterization of the starvation-survival response of Staphylococcus aureus.
The starvation-survival response of Staphylococcus aureus as a result of glucose, amino acid, phosphate, or multiple-nutrient limitation was investigated. Glucose and multiple-nutrient limitation resulted in the loss of viability of about 99 to 99.9% of the population within 2 days. The remaining surviving cells developed increased survival potential, remaining viable for months. Amino acid or ...
