Virulence Factors

Virulence factors are molecules expressed and secreted by pathogens (bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa) that enable them to achieve the following: * colonization of a niche in the host (this i...

Good vs Bad Bacteria in the Gut

Introducing normal anaerobic bacteria into the gut largely eliminates vancomycin-resistant bacteria from the intestinal tracts of mice, suggests new research from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Cente...

Circumcision Alters Penile Microbiome, Possibly Protective

After circumcision, the number and diversity of bacteria are reduced, particularly among anaerobic bacteria. Medscape Medical News

40 Percent Of Dental Bib Clips Retained Aerobic Bacteria; 70 Percent Retained Anaerobic Bacteria Post-Disinfection

Researchers at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine and the Forsyth Institute published a study that found that a significant proportion of dental bib clips harbored bacteria from the patient,...

Anaerobic Workstation Has Capacity of 1,400 Petri Dishes

A new four-port anaerobic workstation has remote monitoring, allowing access from any computer or mobile device with a secure...

Detection of Anaerobic Infection in Diabetic Foot Ulcer

For diabetic foot ulcers, should polymerase chain reaction techniques be routinely used to detect prevalence of anaerobic infection? Wounds

Zero-valent sulphur is a key intermediate in marine methane oxidation

Methane oxidation under anaerobic conditions coupled to sulphate reduction is thought to be carried out by a consortium of methanotrophic archaea (ANME) and sulphate-reducing Deltaproteobacteria; here...

Cultivation, detection, and ecophysiology of anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing bacteria.

Anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria oxidize ammonium with nitrite under anoxic conditions. The anammox process is currently used to remove ammonium from wastewater and contributes signific...

Oxygen tolerance in anaerobic pathogenic bacteria.

A prerequisite for successful identification of anaerobic pathogenic bacteria from samples of clinical material is the method of cultivation. Currently, several methods of cultivation in anaerobic env...

Halophilic anaerobic fermentative bacteria.

In hypersaline environments bacteria are exposed to a high osmotic pressure caused by the surrounding high salt concentrations. Halophilic microorganisms have specific strategies for balancing the osm...

A survey of culturable aerobic and anaerobic marine bacteria in de novo biofilm formation on natural substrates in St. Andrews Bay, Scotland.

This study reports a novel study of marine biofilm formation comprising aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. Samples of quartz and feldspar, minerals commonly found on the earth, were suspended 5 m deep i...

Growth and metabolism characteristics of anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing bacteria aggregates.

The present study reported the growth and metabolism characteristics of anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria aggregates in an expanded granular sludge bed (EGSB). The results showed that th...
