enzymatic extract preparation from pseudomonas aeruginosa km110 under accession no. hq730879 with lipase activity (0.3 u/ml), was used to perform enzymatic hydrolysis pretreatment of a synthetic dairy wastewater with 1000 mg/l total fat content. the pretreatment was optimized for 48 h hydrolysis time, at 45æ% c with 10% v/v enzymatic extract. the biological treatment of synthetic dairy wastewat...

background putative virulence factors are responsible for the pathogenicity of utis caused by pseudomonas aeruginosa (p. aeruginosa). resistance of p. aeruginosa to commonly used antibiotics is caused by the extreme overprescription of those antibiotics. objectives the goal of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of virulence factors and the antibiotic resistance patterns of p. a...

the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (sds) was degraded by novel strain ofpseudomonas aeruginosa kgs under accession no. jq328193, which was isolated from carwash wastewater. the purpose of this research was to study different optimization conditionsrequired for enhancing the biodegradation of sodium dodecyl sulfate p. aeruginosa kgs.influence of different physicochemical factors such ...

pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important opportunistic pathogen causing widespread infections by numerous virulence factors. increasing resistance to antibiotics makes the pseudomonas infections treatment further difficult. the purpose of this study was to evaluate antimicrobial characteristics of essential oils from matricaria chamomilla, artemisia persica, zataria multiflora, myrtus communis, r...

background and objectives: bacterial resistance to conventional antibiotics has become a widespread public health prob- lem. the aim of this study was to investigate the influence of zinc oxide nanoparticles (zno nps) on the antibacterial activity of several conventional antibiotics against pseudomonas aeruginosa. materials and methods: zno nps were prepared by solvothermal method and dispersed...

background and objectives : the main cause of serious nosocomial infections is a gram-negative pathogen known as pseudomonas aeruginosa (p. aeruginosa). carbapenems are widely used as an appropriate treatment for these infections, however resistance to these agents has been observed and is increasing. metallo beta-lactamase (mbls) enzyme is one of the main causes of resistance to carbapenem. in...

conclusions biofilm formation (both strong and weak) strongly correlated with psla gene carriage. biofilm formation also correlated with mbl and ampc β-lactamase production. more importantly, multiple-β-lactamase phenotype was associated with formation of strong biofilms. results biofilm formation was observed in 43.5% of the isolates, of which 66.7% produced strong and 33.3% formed weak biofil...

background: sigma factors are proteins that regulate transcription in bacteria. sigma factors can be activated in response to different environmental conditions. the rpos (rna polymerase, sigma s) gene encodes sigma-38 (σ38, or rpos), a 37.8 kda protein in pseudomonas aeruginosa (p. aeruginosa) strains. rpos is a central regulator of the general stress response and operates in both retroactive ...

objective(s): bacterial biofilm formation causes many persistent and chronic infections. the matrix protects biofilm bacteria from exposure to innate immune defenses and antibiotic treatments. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the biofilm formation of clinical isolates of pseudomonas aeruginosa and the activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles (zno nps) on biofilm. materials and methods: aft...

background : bacterial infections in burn and wound patients are common and difficult to control. the aim of the current study was to evaluate the ability of full length oprf to elicit the production of protective igg in mice burn wound sepsis model against p. aeruginosa infection. methods : oprf protein was expressed and purified by ni-nta. the purified protein as used to immunize balb/c mice....
