Motility and Ultrastructure of Spirochaeta thermophila [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
We analyze here for the first time the swimming behavior of a thermophilic, strictly anaerobic Spirochete, namely Spirochaeta thermophila using high temperature light microscopy. Our data show that S. thermophila very rapidly can change its morphology during swimming, resulting in cells appearing nearly linear, in cells possessing three different ...

Revival of the Names Spirochaeta litoralis, Spirochaeta zuelzerae, and Spirochaeta aurantia [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1980
The names Spirochaeta litoralis Hespell and Canale-Parola; Spirochaeta zuelzerae (Veldkamp) Canale-Parola, Udris, and Mandel; and Spirochaeta aurantia Vinzent, which were inexplicably omitted from the Approved Lists of Bacterial Names, are revived and validly published as specified in Rules 27 and 28a and Provisional Rules B2 and B3 of the ...

Proposal That Spirochaeta stenostrepta Zuelzer Replace Spirochaeta plicatilis Ehrenberg as the Type Species of the Genus Spirochaeta Ehrenberg: Request for an Opinion [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1981

Chemotaxis in Spirochaeta aurantia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1977
Cell of Spirochaeta aurantia M1 suspended in isotropic buffer solution swam in nearly straight lines and appeared to spin around their longitudinal axis. Occasionally, cells stopped and flexed, and then resumed translational motility, usually in a different direction. The average cell velocity was 26 micron/s.

Chemotaxis mutants of Spirochaeta aurantia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1989
Five Spirochaeta aurantia chemotaxis mutants were isolated. One mutant (the che-101 mutant) never reversed, one (the che-200 mutant) flexed predominantly, two (the che-300 and che-400-1 mutants) exhibited elevated reversal frequencies, and one (the che-400 mutant) exhibited chemotactically unstimulated behavior similar to that of the wild-type strain ...

Inhibition of Spirochaeta aurantia chemotaxis by neurotoxins [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1983
The effects of neurotoxic compounds on the chemotactic response of Spirochaeta aurantia were investigated. In the presence of neurotoxins that affect action potential generation and transmission in excitable eucaryotic cells, D-xylose taxis was inhibited by 69 to 93%. Inhibition of chemotaxis was not due to decreased viability or motility.

THE PURE CULTIVATION OF SPIROCHÆTA DUTTONI, SPIROCHÆTA KOCHI, SPIROCHÆTA OBERMEIERI, AND SPIROCHÆTA NOVYI [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 1912
1. A method for the pure cultivation of Spirochœta duttoni, Spirochœta kochi, Spirochœta obermeieri, and Spirochœta novyi is described in this paper. In vitro these strains reach their maximum growth after seven, eight, or nine days at 37°C. For their multiplication they require the presence of a piece of fresh sterile tissue and a body fluid capable ...

DISSEMINATION OF SPIROCHAETA PALLIDA IN EXPERIMENTAL SYPHILIS [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Dermatology and Syphilology, 1921
The earliest studies of Schaudinn and Hoffmann 1 pointed to a rapid invasion of the lymphatic glands by Spirochaeta pallida . Metchnikoff and Roux 2 and Finger and Landsteiner 3 were able to inoculate animals with lymph glands taken early in the course of infection. It was not until later that evidence was shown that in the absence of a primary lesion,

Filtration Experiments with Spirochaeta Schaudinnii [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hygiene, 1934
SUMMARYIt has been shown that S. schaudinnii will easily pass through Berkefeld V filters under a negative pressure of considerably less than one atmosphere, but B. pyocyaneus was always found in the filtrates in association with the spiro-chaetes. Attempts to pass S.

STAINING FOR THE SPIROCHAETA PALLIDA IN SMEAR PREPARATIONS [PDF]

open access: yesJAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1918
The difficulties encountered in making a diagnosis of a suspected primary lesion are well known. The use of a dark ground illuminator is sufficient evidence that the proper staining of the Spirochaeta pallida by the various methods described in standard books on pathologic technic is not an easy task. Thus, Mallory and Wright 1 give not less than four
