High-pressure inactivation and sublethal injury of pressure-resistant Escherichia coli mutants in fruit juices.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The potential of high-pressure-resistant mutants of Escherichia coli to survive high-pressure pasteurization in fruit juices and in low-pH buffers was investigated. Treatments with up to 500 MPa of pressure caused only a limited direct inactivation of the mutants but resulted in an accelerated low-pH inactivation during subsequent storage.

Expression of tolC and organic solvent tolerance of Escherichia coli ciprofloxacin resistant mutants
AcrAB-TolC is a major efflux pump in Escherichia coli. It was reported that tolC is overexpressed and involves in improving the organic solvent tolerance level in Escherichia coli marR mutants that are resistant to several antibiotics, such as ciprofloxacin. Low and intermediate levels resistance did not improve organic solvent tolerance. Thus, in this descriptive-experimental study it was deci...

متن کاملInactivation of Escherichia coli and Listeria innocua in milk by combined treatment with high hydrostatic pressure and the lactoperoxidase system.
We have studied inactivation of four strains each of Escherichia coli and Listeria innocua in milk by the combined use of high hydrostatic pressure and the lactoperoxidase-thiocyanate-hydrogen peroxide system as a potential mild food preservation method. The lactoperoxidase system alone exerted a bacteriostatic effect on both species for at least 24 h at room temperature, but none of the strain...

متن کاملStudy of Mutations in the DNA gyrase gyrA Gene of Escherichia coli
Quinolones are a large and widely consumed class of synthetic drugs. Expanded-spectrum quinolones, like ciprofloxacin are highly effective against Gram-negative bacteria, especially Escherichia coli. In E. coli the major target for quinolones is DNA gyrase. This enzyme is composed of two subunits, GyrA and GyrB encoding by gyrA and gyrB, respectively. Mutations in either of these genes cause qu...
