Bacillus cereus Endogenous Panophthalmitis

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1979
A case of severe suppurative endogenous panophthalmitis caused by Bacillus cereus resulted from intravenously administered medications. This is the first, to our knowledge, well-documented case of endogenous endophthalmitis associated with this organism.

The actions of thioguanine in Bacillus cereus

Biochemical Pharmacology, 1965
Abstract The effects of the guanine analog, 6-thioguanine, have been evaluated in exponentially growing cultures of Bacillus cereus . The drug produced growth inhibition instantly, the duration but not the degree of which was related to the inhibitor concentration.

Bacillus cereus-induced Myonecrosis

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1984
A patient with an incomplete amputation due to a crush injury to his arm developed a myonecrosis with Gram-positive rods noted on muscle and wound aspirates. The patient was treated for a probable Clostridium perfringens infection but culture results proved the organism to be Bacillus cereus.

Phosphate transport in Bacillus cereus

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 1969
Abstract 1. 1. Bacillus cereus accumulates phosphate against a concentration gradient by a process which is energy-dependent and exhibits a high temperature coefficient with an activation energy of over 12 kcal. 2. 2. The rate of uptake is doubled in cells which had been deprived of phosphorus for two hours.

Bacillus cereus neutral protease

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure, 1971
Abstract 1. 1.Bacillus cereus protease has been purified from culture filtrates by acetone precipitation, treatment with active charcoal, (NH4)2SO4 fractionation and chromatography over hydroxylapatite and DEAE-cellulose. 2. 2.The enzyme has been shown to be a zinc-containing neutral protease. 3.

Bacillus cereus and Bacillus anthracis

2018
Bacillus species are spore-forming aerobic rods; are natural inhabitants of soil, dust, water, and environment; and can contaminate milk, meat, rice, and pasta. Endospores are resistant to harsh environmental conditions or processing treatments. The majority of bacilli are nonpathogenic; however, several species produce multiple toxins and can cause ...

Characterization of the exosporium of Bacillus cereus

Journal of Applied Microbiology, 1999
Exosporium components from endospores of Bacillus cereus ATCC 10876 were purified and separated by gel electrophoresis. Several of the proteins for which N-terminal sequences were recovered were found to have homologues in protein databases which have been demonstrated to have enzymic activity in other organisms. Amongst these is a zinc metalloprotease,

Panophthalmitis due to Bacillus cereus

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1980
A rapidly progressing panophthalmitis due to Bacillus cereus developed in three patients. Infection was associated with intravenous drug abuse in two patients and was traced to contaminated injection paraphernalia in one. In the third patient, infection was associated with a foreign-body injury to the eye.

Bacillus cereus: The Forgotten Pathogen

Surgical Infections, 2006
Infection with Bacillus cereus is generally associated with gastrointestinal effects of food poisoning linked to infected rice. Isolates of B. cereus in hospital and clinical settings from any material other than vomitus or feces are commonly dismissed as contaminants.We report a case of B.

Stabilization of Autolysis in Bacillus cereus T [PDF]

Nature, 1966
DURING investigations of the tricarboxylic acid cycle in intact, resting vegetative cells of Bacillus cereus T suspended in phosphate buffer, spontaneous autolysis was observed similar to that reported by Kronish et al.1 in 0.05 M tris (hydroxymethyl)-aminomethane (tris) buffer, pH 7.5.
