Desulfovibrio desulfuricans Bacteremia and Review of Human Desulfovibrio Infections [PDF]
ABSTRACT One case of primary Desulfovibrio desulfuricans bacteremia in an immunocompetent man is presented, and 15 other reported cases are reviewed. While most isolates have not been identified to the species level, Desulfovibrio fairfieldensis and D. desulfuricans

Diazotrophy within Desulfovibrio [PDF]
Summary: Use of a pyruvate-based medium in which the supply of combined N limited growth enabled detection of diazotrophy (as C2H2 reduction) in batch cultures of 12 out of 15 strains of Desulfovibrio representing 5 species and including 2 strains hitherto believed to be non-diazotrophic.

Keto Acid Metabolism in Desulfovibrio [PDF]
Four strains of Desulfovibrio each excreted pyruvate to a constant level during growth; it was re-absorbed when the substrate (lactate) was exhausted. Malate, succinate, fumarate and malonate also accumulated during growth. One of the strains (Hildenborough) excreted alpha-ketoglutarate as well as pyruvate when incubated in nitrogen-free medium; the ...

Desulfovibrio of the sheep rumen [PDF]
A sulfate-reducing bacterium has been isolated in pure culture from sheep rumen contents. Its properties agree in all respects tested with those ascribed to Desulfovibrio desulfuricans. The populations observed (about 10(8)/ml) are sufficient to account for published rates of ruminal sulfide production.

A range of Desulfovibrio spp. can reduce metal ions to form metallic nanoparticles that remain attached to their surfaces. The bioreduction of palladium (Pd) has been given considerable attention due to its extensive use in areas of catalysis and electronics and other technological domains.

Homology of Ribosomal Ribonucleic Acid of Desulfovibrio Species with Desulfovibrio vulgaris [PDF]
Three species of Desulfovibrio were found to have a high degree of ribosomal ribonucleic acid homology with Desulfovibrio vulgaris. Desulfotomaculum nigrificans , which is also a sulfate-reducing anaerobe, had only 38% ribosomal ribonucleic acid homology with D. vulgaris

Genetic transfer in Desulfovibrio desulfuricans [PDF]
An apparently defective bacteriophage capable of mediating transduction has been identified in culture filtrates of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans (American Type Culture Collection 27774). Phage-mediated intraspecies transfer of antibiotic resistance markers occurs with a frequency of 10 -5 to ...

<i>Lycium barbarum</i> Byproducts Modulate Rumen Fermentation, Enhance Digestive Enzyme Activity, and Improve Immune and Antioxidant Status in Grazing Sheep. [PDF]
Lycium barbarum byproducts (seeds and residue) in sheep diets increased acetic and propionic acid, digestive enzyme activity, and beneficial bacteria (Prevotella). Immune status (TP, ALB, GLB) and antioxidant capacity (SOD, GSH‐PX) improved, while waste metabolites (UA, BUN) and oxidative stress (MDA) decreased.

Desulfovibrio Bacteria Are Associated With Parkinson’s Disease [PDF]
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the most prevalent movement disorder known and predominantly affects the elderly. It is a progressive neurodegenerative disease wherein α-synuclein, a neuronal protein, aggregates to form toxic structures in nerve cells. The cause of Parkinson’s disease (PD) remains unknown.

Ameliorative Effects of Aerobic Exercise Combined With <i>Lycium barbarum</i> Polysaccharide-Mediated Gut Microbiota Remodeling on Glycolipid Abnormalities in Type 2 Diabetic Rats. [PDF]
This schematic illustrates the protective effects of aerobic exercise and Lycium barbarum polysaccharide in a rat model of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which was induced by high‐fat/high‐sugar feeding and streptozotocin (STZ) injection. Both interventions target the gut microbiota to promote short‐chain fatty acid production, thereby regulating ...
