Anaerobiosis of fluid mud [PDF]
OBSERVATIONS in estuaries have reported the existence of ephemeral deposits of semi-fluid mud1,2 extending several metres from the bottom. These muds differ from ‘mud’ as normally understood in that although they form definite boundaries with the overlaying water mass they have a lower solid content and settle, if at all, only very slowly.

Incomplete anaerobiosis as a cause of metronidazole 'resistance'. [PDF]
Clostridium welchii, used as a control, was found to grow well in a microaerophilic jar used for campylobacters but appeared resistant to a metronidazole disc although the campylobacter was sensitive. Minimum inhibitory concentrations for six strains of Cl. welchii were up to 64-fold higher in these conditions than when grown anaerobically.

Effect of Anaerobiosis on Staphylococcal Nuclease Production [PDF]
Five strains ofStaphylococcus aureuswere examined quantitatively for the production of nuclease under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Hydrolysis of deoxyribonucleic acid and ribonucleic acid was detected by measuring the release of acidsoluble nucleotides spectrophotometrically.

Chronic infections of Pseudomonas aeruginosa are commonly treated with tobramycin. During infections, the bacteria can exist under conditions of oxygen deprivation that render them less susceptible to this antibiotic.

Ecophysiology of anaerobiosis stress due to flood and waterlogging in rice [PDF]
Purpose: Significant research on yield improvement of wetland rice provided a greater understanding of stress physiology, but less on ecophysiology of anaerobiosis stress.

Listeria monocytogenes is a gram-positive facultative anaerobic bacterium that causes the foodborne illness listeriosis. The pathogenesis of this bacterium depends on its survival in anaerobic, acidic, and bile conditions encountered throughout the ...

Infections caused by Mycobacterium abscessus (Mab), an environmental non-tuberculous mycobacterium, are difficult to eradicate from patients with pulmonary diseases such as cystic fibrosis and bronchiectasis even after years of antibiotic treatments.

Fluorescent proteins, such as green fluorescent proteins, are invaluable tools for detecting and quantifying gene expression in high-throughput reporter gene assays. However, they introduce significant inaccuracies in studies involving microaerobiosis or

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Streptomycin Action and Anaerobiosis [PDF]
SUMMARY: The question was asked whether the insensitivity to dihydrostreptomycin and streptomycin exhibited by facultatively anaerobic organisms growing strictly anaerobically could be due entirely to the lack of an anaerobic mechanism for the uptake of these antibiotics.
