EDTA and Taurolidine Affect Pseudomonas aeruginosa Virulence In Vitro-Impairment of Secretory Profile and Biofilm Production onto Peritoneal Dialysis Catheters [PDF]
Peritoneal catheter-associated biofilm infection is reported to be the main cause of refractory peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis patients. The application of antimicrobial lock therapy, based on results on central venous catheters, may be a promising ...

Specific Gene Loci of Clinical Pseudomonas putida Isolates [PDF]
Pseudomonas putida are ubiquitous inhabitants of soils and clinical isolates of this species have been seldom described. Clinical isolates show significant variability in their ability to cause damage to hosts because some of them are able to modulate ...

Pretreatment with solid phase extraction and analysis with liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry for siderophores in seawater [PDF]
铁在生物的生命活动中扮演着重要角色,如含铁蛋白在生物的光合作用、呼吸作用、硝酸盐和亚硝酸盐的还原、氮的固定及DNA的合成等过程中都起着不可替代的作用。但是海洋表层的生物可利用态铁浓度极低,影响甚至限制着浮游植物的生长。在铁限制条件下,海洋中的一些细菌和真菌能够合成并分泌一种与铁有极强螯合能力的低分子量有机配体——铁载体。铁载体被释放到细胞外后有效地与铁结合,通过细胞膜上特定铁载体受体的识别和转运,将铁运输到微生物细胞内,以满足生物体对铁的需求。 由于铁载体结构复杂多样,在海洋环境中浓度低,分析相对困难 ...

The periplasmic transaminase PtaA of Pseudomonas fluorescens converts the glutamic acid residue at the pyoverdine fluorophore to -ketoglutaric acid [PDF]
The periplasmic conversion of ferribactin to pyoverdine is essential for siderophore biogenesis in fluorescent pseudomonads, such as pathogenic Pseudomonas aeruginosa or plant growth-promoting Pseudomonas fluorescens.

Testing the evolutionary robustness of pyoverdine as a novel treatment against human opportunistic pathogens [PDF]
Classical antibiotics are losing their efficacy as their application directly selects for resistance. Inducing indirect iron starvation appears to be an alternative and safer strategy as it underlies an extracellular working mechanism. Extracellular mode

ABSTRACT Trailing endpoints are a recognised challenge in broth microdilution MIC testing, particularly for bacteriostatic agents such as trimethoprim (TMP) and sulphonamides. In this study, we applied a pharmacodynamically guided refinement to determine the MIC of the combination against Staphylococcus pseudintermedius; we did not aim at redefining ...

PAMPs, MAMPs, DAMPs and others: an update on the diversity of plant immunity elicitors [PDF]
Plants possess a broad array of defenses that could be actively expressed in response of pathogenic organisms or parasites but also following beneficial saprophytic microorganisms recognition.
