MALDI-TOF/MS identification of species from the Acinetobacter baumannii (Ab) group revisited: inclusion of the novel A. seifertii and A. dijkshoorniae species [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Rapid identification of Acinetobacter species is critical since members of the A. baumannii (Ab) group differ in antibiotic susceptibility and clinical outcomes. A. baumannii, A. pittii and A.

A case of IMP-4-, OXA-421-, OXA-96-, and CARB-2-producing acinetobacter pittii sequence type 119 in Australia [PDF]
An IMP-4-producing Acinetobacter pittii strain coproducing oxacillinases was isolated from a leg wound of a 67-year-old female patient. Identification to the species level by rpoB and gyrB sequencing and multiplex-PCR-based analysis revealed that the ...

Bacteremia caused by an Acinetobacter junii strain harboring class 1 integron and diverse DNA mobile elements [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Infections caused by Acinetobacter junii are rarely reported. However, some outbreaks of septicemia in neonates and pediatric oncology patients, as well as meningitis, peritonitis, and ocular infection have been described.

Application of COMPOCHIP Microarray to Investigate the Bacterial Communities of Different Composts [PDF]
A microarray spotted with 369 different 16S rRNA gene probes specific to microorganisms involved in the degradation process of organic waste during composting was developed. The microarray was tested with pure cultures, and of the 30,258 individual probe-

Multiple DNA polymerases in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus
The synthesis of DNA is thought to be catalyzed by deoxynucleotide polymerizing enzymes. In the case of procariotic organisms it has recently been shown that E. coli and Bacillus subtilis possess three different DNA polymerases termed I, II and III [l-5]. DNA polymerase I from E. coli was the first enzyme to be characterized and its mechanism of action

Molecular epidemiological study of clinical Acinetobacter baumannii isolates: phenotype switching of antibiotic resistance [PDF]
BackgroundThe presence of clinical Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) isolates with differing antibiotic resistance phenotypes in the same patient causes difficulties and confusion in treatment.

Natural alcohol and sugar dehydrogenases that utilize the redox cofactor pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) can be repurposed for enantioselective photoredox catalysis. Upon blue‐light irradiation, redox‐neutral radical cyclizations are catalyzed. This work adds a new class of enzymes to the toolbox of photobiocatalysis.
