In vitro efficacy of new antifolates against trimethoprim-resistant Bacillus anthracis
(American Society for Microbiology, 2007-12)
Bacillus anthracis is innately resistant to trimethoprim (TMP), a synthetic antifolate that selectively inhibits several bacterial dihydrofolate reductases (DHFRs) but not human DHFR. Previously, we were able to confirm ...
Microbial community structure in petroleum-contaminated sediments corresponds to geophysical signatures
(American Society for Microbiology, 2007-05)
The interdependence between geoelectrical signatures at underground petroleum plumes and the structures of subsurface microbial communities was investigated. For sediments contaminated with light non-aqueous-phase liquids, ...
Microplate fluorescence assay for measurement of the ability of strains of Listeria monocytogenes from meat and meat-processing plants to adhere to abiotic surfaces
(American Society for Microbiology, 2007-08)
Listeria monocytogenes is a significant food-borne pathogen that is capable of adhering to and producing biofilms on processing equipment, making it difficult to eliminate from meat-processing environments and allowing ...
Tick acquisition of Ehrlichia canis from dogs treated with doxycycline hyclate
(American Society for Microbiology, 2007-09)
Doxycycline generally alleviates clinical monocytic ehrlichiosis, but its efficacy in the control of monocytotropic ehrlichial pathogens requires further investigation. In this study, Ehrlichia canis was detected in dogs ...
