DISSIMILATORY SULFATE REDUCTION BY VARIOUS DESULFOVIBRIO SP. STRAINS OF THE HUMAN INTESTINE
The aim of this research was to study the dissimilatory sulfate reduction process by various Desulfovibrio sp. strains of the human intestine, such as bacterial growth, sulfate- and lactate usage, production of sulfide and acetate by the strains, and ...

Draft Genome Sequence for Desulfovibrio africanus Strain PCS. [PDF]
Desulfovibrio africanus strain PCS is an anaerobic sulfate-reducing bacterium (SRB) isolated from sediment from Paleta Creek, San Diego, CA. Strain PCS is capable of reducing metals such as Fe(III) and Cr(VI), has a cell cycle, and is predicted to ...

Chemical composition of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans lipid A [PDF]
Lipopolysaccharides also called endotoxins are an integral component of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. When released from the bacterial surface, they interact with a host immune system, triggering excessive inflammatory response. Lipid A is the biologically most active part of endotoxin, and its activity is modulated by the quantity ...

Use of Desulfovibrio and Escherichia coli Pd-nanocatalysts in reduction of Cr(VI) and hydrogenolytic dehalogenation of polychlorinated biphenyls and used transformer oil [PDF]
BACKGROUND Desulfovibrio spp. biofabricate metallic nanoparticles (e.g. ‘Bio-Pd’) which catalyse the reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) and dehalogenate polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Desulfovibrio spp.

First case of a renal cyst infection caused by Desulfovibrio: a case report and literature review
Background Genus Desulfovibrio species is a sulphate-reducing anaerobic gram-negative rod that resides in the human oral cavity and intestinal tract. It was reported as the causative pathogen of bacteraemia and abdominal infections, but not renal cyst ...

Quantification of ploidy in proteobacteria revealed the existence of monoploid, (mero-)oligoploid and polyploid species [PDF]
Bacteria are generally assumed to be monoploid (haploid). This assumption is mainly based on generalization of the results obtained with the most intensely studied model bacterium, Escherichia coli (a gamma-proteobacterium), which is monoploid during ...

Bacteremia Caused by a Strain of Desulfovibrio Related to the Provisionally Named Desulfovibrio fairfieldensis [PDF]
ABSTRACT Eight isolates of Desulfovibrio spp. have been obtained over 5 years from abdominal or brain abscesses or blood. In seven patients these strains were part of a mixed flora. One strain was isolated in pure culture from the blood of a patient with peritonitis of appendicular origin. According to the

TEST-SYSTEMS FOR MONITORING OF CORROSION-RELEVANT SULFATE-REDUCING BACTERIA USING REAL-TIME PCR ASSAY [PDF]
The possibility of the designing test-systems for specific detection of corrosive-relevant sulfate-reducing bacteria using real-time PCR assay were investigated. This method of the bacteria identification is based on the detection of the functional genes,
