Novel selective medium for isolation of Burkholderia pseudomallei
Isolation of Burkholderia pseudomallei currently relies on the use of Ashdown's selective agar (ASA). We designed a new selective agar (Burkholderia pseudomallei selective agar [BPSA]) to improve recovery of the more easily inhibited strains of B ...

Automatic quantification of histological studies in allergic asthma. [PDF]
The evaluation of new therapies to treat allergic asthma makes frequent use of histological studies. Some of them are based on microscope observation of stained paraffin lung sections to quantify cellular infiltrate, an effect directly related to ...

Structural and functional specialization of Bordetella pertussis DsbA for pertussis toxin folding
Abstract Disulphide bonds (Dsbs) are essential for the folding, stability, and function of many secreted and membrane‐associated proteins in bacteria. In Gram‐negative species, these bonds are introduced by the Dsb enzyme family, with DsbA acting as the primary thiol oxidase.

Nucleotide sugar short‐chain dehydrogenases/reductases (NS‐SDRs) are involved in pseudomurein and capsular polysaccharide formation in methanogenic Archaea. Methanothermobacter thermautotrophicus possesses several NS‐SDRs labelled Mth375, Mth380, Mth373, Mth631 and Mth1789.

The effect of free chlorine on Burkholderia pseudomallei in potable water
Chlorine is widely used in public water supplies to provide a disinfection barrier. The effect of chlorine disinfection on the water-borne pathogen Burkholderia pseudomallei was assessed using multiple techniques.

Disinfection of Burkholderia pseudomallei in potable water
The effect of chlorine, monochloramine and UV disinfection on the water-borne pathogen Burkholderia pseudomallei was assessed. Persistence of B. pseudomallei was verified by MPN involving a one-step recovery procedure.
