Anaerobic Dechlorinating Bacteria

Biotechnology Progress, 1998
AbstractAnaerobic dehalogenation is attracting great interest since it opens new research horizons based on the novel biochemical mechanisms identified in this field such as halorespiration, i.e. the utilization of halogenated compounds as electron acceptors.

Susceptibility Testing of Anaerobic Bacteria

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1989
Abstract The importance of anaerobes as causes of significant infections is now widely recognized. The medical journals are replete with articles devoted to the diagnosis and treatment of these infections. In particular, studies in patients and experimental animals have documented the benefit of specific antimicrobials directed against ...

Anaerobic bacteria as producers of antibiotics

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2012
Anaerobic bacteria are the oldest terrestrial creatures. They occur ubiquitously in soil and in the intestine of higher organisms and play a major role in human health, ecology, and industry. However, until lately no antibiotic or any other secondary metabolite has been known from anaerobes. Mining the genome sequences of Clostridium spp.

The Role of Anaerobic Bacteria in Prostatitis

2005
Prostatitis is an enigmatic condition which affects up to 50% of men at some point according to different estimations. Unlike benign prostatic hyperplasia (BHP) and prostate cancer, which are diseases of older men, prostatitis affects men of all ages.

Parotitis Due to Anaerobic Bacteria

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1988
Although Staphylococcus aureus remains the pathogen most commonly implicated in acute suppurative parotitis, the pathogenic role of gram-negative facultative anaerobic bacteria and strict anaerobic organisms in this disease is becoming increasingly recognized. This report describes a case of parotitis due to Bacteroides disiens in an elderly woman with

Halophilic anaerobic fermentative bacteria

Journal of Biotechnology, 2011
In hypersaline environments bacteria are exposed to a high osmotic pressure caused by the surrounding high salt concentrations. Halophilic microorganisms have specific strategies for balancing the osmotic pressure and surviving in these extreme conditions.

Anaerobic bacteria in carious dentine

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1955
Abstract Forty-two cultures were isolated from sixteen teeth under anaerobic conditions in this investigation; of these, sixteen were isolated from the deepest level, eighteen from the middle level, five from the shallowest level, and four from the root canal.

Antibiotic resistance in anaerobic bacteria

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 1988
An improved understanding of the mechanisms of resistance and transfer in Bacteroides fragilis has been gained over the past decade. B. fragilis resistance to most penicillins is largely due to production of chromosomal beta-lactamases, although recent findings indicate these micro-organisms can acquire novel beta-lactamases, which can even inactivate ...

Uvulitis caused by anaerobic bacteria

Pediatric Emergency Care, 1997
I present two children with bacteremic uvulitis due to anaerobic bacteria.Fusobacterium nucleatum was recovered from the blood, and Haemophilus influenzae type b was recovered from a surface uvular culture of one patient. beta-Lactamase-producing Prevotella intermedia was isolated for the blood of the other patient.

Endocarditis due to Anaerobic Bacteria

Cardiology, 2002
This review describes the microbiology, diagnosis and management of endocarditis due to anaerobic bacteria. Anaerobic bacteria are an uncommon but important cause of endocarditis. Most cases of anaerobic endocarditis are caused by anaerobic cocci, <i>Propionibacterium acnes</i> and <i>Bacteroides fragilis</i> group. Predisposing
