The Transcriptional Repressor SmvR Is Important for Decreased Chlorhexidine Susceptibility in Enterobacter cloacae Complex [PDF]
Major facilitator superfamily (MFS) efflux pumps have been shown to be important for bacterial cells to cope with biocides such as chlorhexidine (CHX), a widely used molecule in hospital settings. In this work, we evaluated the role of two genes, smvA and smvR , in CHX resistance in

Enhanced biohydrogen production from beverage industrial wastewater using external nitrogen sources and bioaugmentation with facultative anaerobic strains [PDF]
In this work biohydrogen generation and its improvement possibilities from beverage industrial wastewater were sought. Firstly, mesophilic hydrogen fermentations were conducted in batch vials by applying heat-treated (80°C, 30 min) sludge and liquid (LB ...

Landscape of Resistance-Nodulation-Cell Division (RND)-Type Efflux Pumps in Enterobacter cloacae Complex [PDF]
ABSTRACT In Gram-negative bacteria, the active efflux is an important mechanism of antimicrobial resistance, but little is known about the Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC). It is mediated primarily by pumps belonging to the RND (resistance-nodulation-cell division) family, and only AcrB, part of the ...

Molecular dynamic simulations to assess the structural variability of ClpV from Enterobacter cloacae
The Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) consists of six Enterobacter species (E. cloacae, hormaechei, kobei, ludwigii, nimipressuralis and asburiae) that have emerged as nosocomial pathogens of interest, with E.

Performance of the VITEK MS matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry system for rapid bacterial identification in two diagnostic centres in China [PDF]
Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) MS systems was not officially launched for diagnostic use in clinical microbiology laboratories in China until 2012. Here, we report the findings from the first large-scale evaluation

Proteomic response of β-lactamases-producingEnterobacter cloacaecomplex strain to cefotaxime-induced stress [PDF]
Bacteria of the Enterobacter cloacae complex are among the ten most common pathogens causing nosocomial infections in the USA. Consequently, increased resistance to β-lactam antibiotics, particularly expanded-spectrum cephalosporins like cefotaxime (CTX), poses a serious threat.

Bioremediation of methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE) by three pure bacterial cultures [PDF]
Background: Bioremediation of groundwater and soil contamination is more economical than physicochemical remediation. The present study focused on the bioremediation capability of two bacterial species (Klebsiella planticola and Enterobacter cloacae ...
