Toxic Lysolipoid: Isolation from Pseudomonas
نویسنده
چکیده
A lipoid of low molecular weight, isolated from the supernatant fluid of cultures of Pseudomonas pseudomallei, killed mice, but not rabbits, in doses comparable to those of the homologous lipopolysaccharide and also lysed sheep erythrocytes. In rabbits this lipoid failed to elicit primary dermal lesions, to prepare the skin for the local Schwartzman reaction, or to induce antibody

Isolation and Identification of Anionic Surfactant Degrading Bacteria from Activated Sludge
Linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LABS) is an anionic surfactant widely used all over the world. They will eventually end-up and accumulate in household or industrial sewage. Due to their high foaming capabilities which can cause numerous problems in sewage treatment facilities as well as direct toxic effects on many different organisms in ecosystem they are generally considered as serious polluta...
متن کاملIsolation and identification of phenol degrading bacteria from Kor river and their growth kinetics assay
Background : Phenol and it’s derivatives were removed by physicochemical methods in the past but nowadays biological treatment has priority. Bacteria with the rapid proliferation in the presence of phenol and it’s derivatives can remove them in a good manner. The aim of this project is isolation and identification of bacteria that degrade phenol from water and sediment of Kor river and also inv...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of phenol degrading bacteria from Midok copper mine at Shahrbabk provenance in Iran
Phenol is one of the major aromatic pollutants among variety of toxic compounds. Phenol is a man- made as well as a naturally occurring aromatic compound and an important intermediate in the biodegradation of natural and industrial aromatic compounds. To clean up the aromatic contaminated sites a bioremediation method is considered as an economical and safe approach for the environment. In this...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of diesel-degrading Pseudomonas strains from diesel-contaminated soils in Iran (Fars province)
In this study, among the 21 diesel-degrading bacteria that were isolated from an oil-polluted area in Fars (Iran), 6 bacterial strains were tested for their capability to metabolize and grow on diesel oil by degrading its hydrocarbons content. The biochemical characteristics and 16S rRNA sequence analysis of diesel-degrading bacteria showed that these strains were related to the genus Pseudomon...

Background & Aim: Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains that were resistance to majority of commonly used antibiotics were caused problem in treatment of these infections. Imipenem is the excessive potential antibiotic for elimination of antibiotic resistance isolates of these bacteria. Aim of this study was, identification of imipenem effect on TEM beta-lactamase gene expression in resistant to antib...
