Improved Electroporation of Rhodococcus equi.

Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 1998
The condition of an electroporation method was re-evaluated for the introduction of foreign plasmid DNA into Rhodococcus equi. The method is based on an electroporation of the bacteria made competent by culturing in a broth containing glycine and by heat shock at 50 degrees C. Transformation of R. equi could be achieved with a chloramphenicol-resistant

Rhodococcus equi

, 2016
Description of Rhodococcus equi UKS-28 Cells are Gram-staining-positive, non-flagellated and rod­shaped. Colonies are circular, raised, entire and yellow­colored after 2 days of incubation on R2A at 25°C. Positive reaction is obtained for nitrate reduction in API 20NE, and negative reactions are obtained for indole production, glucose fermentation ...

Survival and replication of Rhodococcus equi in macrophages [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1994
Rhodococcus equi is a facultative intracellular bacterium of macrophages that can cause serious pneumonia in both young horses and immunocompromised people. Essential to understanding rhodococcus pathogenesis is a quantitative documentation of the intracellular events that follow macrophage phagocytosis of the organism.
