Biodegradation of benzene by halophilic and halotolerant bacteria under aerobic condition
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004-02)A highly enriched halophilic culture was established with benzene as the sole carbon source by using a brine soil obtained from an oil production facility in Oklahoma. The enrichment completely degraded benzene, toluene, ... -
Effect on Nitrogen, Iron and Temperature on Yield and Composition of Microalgae
(Oklahoma State University, 2011-05-01)A laboratory study was conducted to evaluate the response of microalgae Nannochloropsis salina, Chlorella sp., and Pleurochysis carterae to nutrient deficiency and temperature stress. The three species were cultured in ... -
Functional cloning of Bacillus anthracis dihydrofolate reductase and confirmation of natural resistance to trimethoprim
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004-12)Bacillus anthracis is reported to be naturally resistant to trimethoprim (TMP), a drug that inhibits dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), a key enzyme in the folate pathway. A microdilution broth assay established that the MIC ... -
Terbinafine resistance mediated by salicylate 1-monooxygenase in Aspergillus nidulans
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004-09)Resistance to antifungal agents is a recurring and growing problem among patients with systemic fungal infections. UV-induced Aspergillus nidulans mutants resistant to terbinafine have been identified, and we report here ... -
Use of fatty acid methyl ester profiles for discrimination of Bacillus cereus T-strain spores grown on different media
(American Society for Microbiology, 2010-03)The goal of this study was to determine if cellular fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) profiling could be used to distinguish among spore samples from a single species (Bacillus cereus T strain) that were prepared on 10 different ...
