The Human Biting Culex pipiens Bioform molestus Detected in Several Areas in Southern Sweden

open access: closedVector-Borne and Zoonotic Diseases, 2020
Background: The mosquito species Culex pipiens is a known vector of several pathogens and occurs in two distinct bioforms, pipiens and molestus. The bioform molestus thrives in urban environments where there are below-ground habitats; it can mate in confined spaces and feed on mammals as well as birds.

Bioformation of 4-hydroxybenzoate from 4-chlorobenzoate by Alcaligenes denitrificans NTB-1

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 1986
Strain NTB-1, identified as a Alcaligenes denitrificans sp., was isolated from a mixture of soil and sewage samples using 4-chlorobenzoate as sole carbon and energy source. Simultaneous adaptation experiments and enzyme studies revealed that 4-chlorobenzoate was converted to 4-hydroxybenzoate which was further oxidized yielding 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate ...

Thiram‐induced disturbance of microsomal phospholipid bioformation and phospholipid fatty acid pattern

Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, 1981
In rats, a single oral dose of 30 mg or 1 g thiram per kilogram produced a significant prolongation of the hexobarbital sleeping time or zoxazolamine paralysis time, respectively, a depression of hepatic microsomal O-demethylation of p-nitroanisole to p-nitrophenol, and a decrease in the microsomal cytochrome P-450 content.

Kaolinite Bioformation at Surface Conditions: The Role of Fungi and Bacteria

Science of The Total Environment
Experiments aimed at studying the role of microorganisms in the formation of kaolinite from aluminosilicate solutions (Si:Al = 1:1) are reported. The experiments were carried out at room temperature in presence of living microorganisms, Leonardite humic acid, bacterial debris, bacterial exopolysaccharides (EPS), and some organic ligands.

Biotransformation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and bioformation of hydroxylated PCBs in fish

Aquatic Toxicology, 2006
Hydroxylated PCBs (OH-PCBs) are a class of organic contaminants that have been found recently in the plasma of Great Lakes fish, the source of which is either bioformation from PCBs or accumulation from the environment. To address the potential for fish to biotransform PCBs and bioform OH-PCBs juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss; approximately ...

Bioformation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in soil under oxygen deficient conditions

Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2002
Abstract Possible formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) through biological processes in soil was investigated. Soil, plant material, and a mixture of both were waterlogged and incubated for 2 years, resulting in long lasting oxygen deficient conditions. Sample extracts were analysed by HPLC for 15 PAHs.

Anaerobic bioformation of 4-hydroxybenzoate from 4-chlorobenzoate by the coryneform bacterium NTB-1

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 1992
Resting cells of the coryneform strain NTB-1, previously incorrectly classified as Alcaligenes denitrificans NTB-1, quantitatively converted 4-chlorobenzoate (4-CBA) to 4-hydroxybenzoate (4-HBA) under strict anaerobic conditions in the presence of ferricyanide or nitrate.
