Prevalence and heterogeneity of Hemolysin gene vhh among hatchery isolates of Vibrio harveyi in India
(Springer, 2009)
Vibrio harveyi, pathogenic to fish, harbor a hemolysin gene vhh, the homologues of which are found in many species of the Genus Vibrio. It is investigated that the prevalence of vhh gene among V. harveyi isolated from ...
Biochemical composition of the marine conditioning film: Implications for bacterial adhesion
(Taylor & Francis, 2009)
The conditioning film formed on glass panels was analysed for total carbohydrates (CFCHO), total proteins (CFP) and total uronic acids (CFURA). The influence of these compounds on the adhesion of three marine bacterial ...
Seasonal dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) variability in Dona Paula Bay
(Elsevier, 2009)
Data on temporal variations of total dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSPt) and the environmental factors that influence DMSPt concentrations are important in understanding the biogeochemical cycling of organic sulfur compounds. ...
Abundance and production of particle-associated bacteria and their role in a mangrove-dominated estuary
(Inter-Research, 2009)
A 1 yr study was carried out in the mangrove-dominated, tropical Mandovi estuary (Goa, India) to assess the contribution of particle-associated bacteria (PAB) to the system’s variability in terms of abundance and productivity. ...
A study on the effects of some laboratory-derived genetic mutations on biofilm formation by Listeria monocytogenes
(Springer, 2009)
Biofilms formed by the human pathogen Listeria monocytogenes in food-processing environments can be a potential source of contamination. In this study, we investigated the ability of L. monocytogenes wild type and its ...
Biochemical and molecular characterizaion of Bacillus pumilus isolated from coastal environment in Cochin, India
(Sociedade Brasileira de Microbiologia, 2009)
Bacillus species constitute a diverse group of bacteria widely distributed in soil and the aquatic environment. In this study, Bacillus strains isolated from the coastal environment of Cochin, India were identified by ...
Microbially mediated redox transformations of manganese (II) along with some other trace elements: a study from Antarctic lakes
(Springer, 2009)
The significance of freshwater systems in global manganese cycles is well appreciated. Yet, the polar systems, which encompass the largest freshwater repository in the world, have been least studied for their role in ...
Identification of a novel UDP-N-acetylglucosamine enolpyruvyl transferase (MurA) from Vibrio fischeri that confers high fosfomycin resistance in Escherichia coli
(Springer, 2009)
MurA [UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-NAG) enolpyruvyl transferase] is a key enzyme involved in bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan synthesis and a target for the antimicrobial agent fosfomycin, a structural analog of the MurA ...
