Isolation of L-Forms in a Clinical Microbiology Laboratory [PDF]
Previous studies have demonstrated that L-forms of bacteria may play a role in persistent, chronic, or recurrent urinary-tract infections. A 2-year program was initiated to determine the feasibility of culturing for L-forms on a routine basis, and to determine the effectiveness of such a program.

Quality control of the isolation rate of pathogens in medical microbiology laboratories [PDF]
SUMMARYTwo statistical analyses are suggested to compare the success rates in isolating and identifying pathogenic organisms from specimens achieved by different laboratories participating in a quality control scheme. An example is given in which the analyses are applied to 25 laboratories that received 30 simulated specimens.

Microbiological Sulfide Removal—From Microorganism Isolation to Treatment of Industrial Effluent [PDF]
Management of excessive aqueous sulfide is one of the most significant challenges of treating effluent after biological sulfate reduction for metal recovery from hydrometallurgical leachate. The main objective of this study was to characterize and verify the effectiveness of a sulfide-oxidizing bacterial (SOB) consortium isolated from post-mining ...

Improved Isolation of Ultra-High-Molecular-Weight Genomic DNA Suitable for Third-Generation Sequencing [PDF]
Although a variety of protocols to isolate high-molecular-weight genomic DNA exist, the isolation and preservation of ultra-high-molecular-weight genomic DNA of sufficient quality and length for error-free third-generation sequencing remains challenging.
