EFFECT OF SIDEROPHORES AGAINST E. COLI O157:H7
Italian Journal of Food Safety, 2012 In this study, the inhibiting activity of siderophores produced by Pseudomonas fluorescens against Escherichia coli O157:7 was assayed. Siderophores were extracted from P. fluorescens cultures and preliminarily tested by C.A.S. reagent and UV.

Gram-positive siderophore-shuttle with iron-exchange from Fe-siderophore to apo-siderophore by Bacillus cereus YxeB [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013 Small molecule iron-chelators, siderophores, are very important in facilitating the acquisition of Fe(III), an essential element for pathogenic bacteria. Many Gram-negative outer-membrane transporters and Gram-positive lipoprotein siderophore-binding proteins have been characterized, and the binding ability of outer-membrane transporters ...

Hydroxamate production as a high affinity iron acquisition mechanism in Paracoccidioides spp. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Iron is a micronutrient required by almost all living organisms, including fungi. Although this metal is abundant, its bioavailability is low either in aerobic environments or within mammalian hosts.

Pseudomonas siderophores: production, spectrophotometry detection and Botrytis suppression
Notulae Scientia BiologicaeSiderophores are iron-chelating agents produced by almost all microorganisms in response to iron deficiency. Due to the requirement of iron for cell growth and metabolism, siderophore-mediated acquisition of iron plays a central role in determining the ...
