Reservoir of Bacterial Exotoxin Genes in the Environment

International Journal of Microbiology, 2010
Many bacteria produce secreted virulence factors called exotoxins. Exotoxins are often encoded by mobile genetic elements, including bacteriophage (phage). Phage can transfer genetic information to the bacteria they infect.

Alginate Biosynthesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa: Comparison of Coating and Film Formation Properties of Bacterial Alginate With Brown Algae Alginate in Beef Thigh Meat Shelf Life

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Current study results indicated that Pseudomonas aeruginosa alginate and brown algae alginate exhibited significant differences (p ≤ 0.05) in the morphology and physicochemical characteristics. The mechanical features of brown algae alginate films were significantly (p ≤ 0.05) more superior to Pseudomonas aeruginosa alginate films.
