In vitro activity of ciprofloxacin against aerobic gram-negative bacteria [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1984 For 177 gram-negative isolates, the MICs for ciprofloxacin ranged from 0.02 microgram/ml (Escherichia coli) to 0.31 microgram/ml (Pseudomonas aeruginosa). In time-kill curves, ciprofloxacin at 8 X the MIC almost completely killed 10(6) CFU of P. aeruginosa by 24 h.

Effect of High Oxygen Tensions on the Growth of Selected, Aerobic, Gram-negative, Pathogenic Bacteria [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1968 The in vitro effects of high O 2 tensions (P O 2 ) on aerobic, enteric pathogens were examined at pressures of up to 3 atm absolute. Organisms from the genera Salmonella, Shigella , and Vibrio were ...

Recovery of aerobic gram-negative bacteria from the Copan Eswab transport system after long-term storage [PDF]
Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2020 We evaluated the Copan Eswab transport system for the quantitative recovery of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa after 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 days of storage at room and refrigerator temperatures, and 7 and 30 days of storage at -80 °C and -20 °C using mono- and polymicrobial samples.

Detection of alternative nitrogenases in aerobic gram-negative nitrogen-fixing bacteria [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1991 Strains of aerobic, microaerobic, nonsymbiotic, and symbiotic dinitrogen-fixing bacteria were screened for the presence of alternative nitrogenase (N2ase) genes by DNA hybridization between genomic DNA and DNA encoding structural genes for components 1 of three different enzymes.

Epidemiology of pharyngeal colonization of infants with aerobic gram-negative rod bacteria
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1989 By using a selective medium, pharyngeal colonization with gram-negative rod (GNR) bacteria was determined in a cohort of 49 normal infants monitored from birth to 6 months of age. Culture swabs were diluted in 1 ml of saline for quantitation. The prevalence of GNR in the first 72 h of life was 8% and rose to 29% during the first month, 52% at 2.5 ...

Classical Microbiological Diagnostics of Bacteremia: Are the Negative Results Really Negative? What is the Laboratory Result Telling Us About the “Gold Standard”? [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2020 Standard blood cultures require at least 24−120 h to be reported as preliminary positive. The objective of this study was to compare the reliability of Gram staining and fluorescent in-situ hybridization (FISH) for detecting bacteria in otherwise ...

Antimicrobial Susceptibility of Enteric Gram Negative Facultative Anaerobe Bacilli in Aerobic versus Anaerobic Conditions [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Antimicrobial treatments result in the host’s enteric bacteria being exposed to the antimicrobials. Pharmacodynamic models can describe how this exposure affects the enteric bacteria and their antimicrobial resistance.
