Polysaccharide Capsule of Bacillus megaterium.
SummaryCertain strains of B. megaterium produce capsules consisting of polysaccharide and lacking polypeptide if cultured in a synthetic medium containing glucose and nitrate as sole sources of carbon and nitrogen. The capsules give a specific capsular reaction with the same homologous antibody as that which reacts with the cell wall.

Isomers of glucosaminylphosphatidylglycerol in Bacillus megaterium [PDF]
1. The lipids of Bacillus megaterium were extracted and three lipids containing glucosamine were identified. One of these is not a phospholipid, but the other two, which differ in their chromatographic behaviour, contain phosphorus, glycerol, fatty acid and d-glucosamine in the molar proportions 1:2:2:1. 2.

Red pigment in Bacillus megaterium spores [PDF]
Bacillus megaterium QM B1551 spores contained a unique red pigment in their membranes that was not found in other species. This red pigment, presumably a carotenoid, was synthesized about the time of dipicolinic acid synthesis during sporulation and was associated with the forespores.

Prime time for Bacillus megaterium [PDF]
It is evident that B. megaterium is an intriguing organism because of its biochemical versatility, its wide distribution ecologically, its ability to undergo sporulation, and its usefulness as an industrial production strain and expression host. With the progress in genetics and the availability of molecular tools such as new transposons, vectors and ...

Contribution to the Characterization of Bacillus megaterium [PDF]
A study of the cellular and colonial morphologies, the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) base composition, the degree of lysis by lysozyme, and some fundamental biochemical reactions was carried out on 23 strains previously identified as members of Bacillus megaterium. Included among these was NCTC 10342, the neotype strain of B. megaterium.

Microbial decolorization of a textile azo dye Novacron Blue by natural inhabitant bacteria
Abstract Azo dye discharged in wastewater streams from textile or other industry without treatment results in environmental pollution. This study attempts to uncover the ability of naturally occurring bacteria in reducing and decolorizing a textile azo dye Novacron Blue in nutrient medium and also from textile dye effluent.
