Two Independent Pathways for Self-Recognition in Proteus Mirabilis Are Linked by Type VI-Dependent Export [PDF]
Swarming colonies of the bacterium Proteus mirabilis are capable of self-recognition and territorial behavior. Swarms of independent P. mirabilis isolates can recognize each other as foreign and establish a visible boundary where they meet; in contrast ...

Growth-Inhibiting Metabolites Of Proteus Mirabilis [PDF]
Summary Strains of Proteus mirabilis and P. vulgaris produce metabolites which inhibit their own growth and that of other members of the group, but not that of P. rettgeri, P. morganii, Providence or Escherichia coli. These metabolites are dialysable, volatile and inactivated by ether and by chloroform.

Genomic and Ecogenomic Characterization of Proteus mirabilis Bacteriophages
Proteus mirabilis often complicates the care of catheterized patients through the formation of crystalline biofilms which block urine flow. Bacteriophage therapy has been highlighted as a promising approach to control this problem, but relatively few ...

Broad-spectrum β-lactamases among Enterobacteriaceae of animal origin: molecular aspects, mobility and impact on public health [PDF]
Broad-spectrum β-lactamase genes (coding for extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and AmpC β-lactamases) have been frequently demonstrated in the microbiota of food-producing animals. This may pose a human health hazard since these genes may be present

Transduction of Swarming in Proteus mirabilis [PDF]
SUMMARY: A phage able to transduce a streptomycin resistance marker in Proteus mirabilis can also separately transduce the swarming characteristic between variants of two strains of P. mirabilis. Motile non-swarming variants were made to swarm on agar by incorporation of a swarming gene via a phage lysate of a swarming strain.

Application of firefly luciferase assay for adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to antimicrobial drug sensitivity testing [PDF]
The development of a rapid method for determining microbial susceptibilities to antibiotics using the firefly luciferase assay for adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is documented. The reduction of bacterial ATP by an antimicrobial agent was determined to be a
