| isolation of plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid from two strains of bacteroides. | two clinical isolates of bacteroides contained covalently closed circular deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) as shown by sedimentation in an alkaline sucrose gradient, cscl ethidium bromide equilibrium centrifugation, and electron microscopy. bacteriodes fragilis n1175 contained a homogeneous species of plasmid dna with a molecular weight of 25 x 10(6). bacteroides ochraceus 2228 contained two distinct, covalently closed circular dna elements. the larger cosedimented with the covalently closed circular ... | 1975 | 1100611 |
| arthritis associated with intestinal-bypass procedure for morbid obesity. complement activation and characterization of circulating cryoproteins. | five patients were studied after intestinal-bypass operations for morbid obesity to determine if the arthritis observed in three of these patients was associated with circulating cryoproteins. only serum from the three patients with acute arthritis contained cryoprotein complexes. the complexes comprised igg, igm, iga, complement components c3, c4, c5 and igg antibody against escherichia coli and bacillus fragilis. the c3-activator fragment of the properdin complex was identified in fresh serum ... | 1976 | 1105187 |
| significance of anaerobic bacteria isolated from the urinary tract. ii. experimental studies. | an attempt to cause retrograde urinary tract infection with bacteroides fragilis (a strain subcultured in artificial media) failed to produce any significant renal infection in rats. intravenous inoculation with fusobacterium (a strain subcultured in artificial media) also did not cause demonstrable renal infection in rats. nor could the anaerobic organism be demonstrated in the kidneys of these animals. animals receiving bacteroides (a strain subcultured in artificial media) inoculated directly ... | 1976 | 1107257 |

| the impact of laboratory error on the normal range: a bayesian model. | interpretation of clinical laboratory results, aside from clinical considerations, is based on the probability of the result being within a given normal range. this probability is influenced by the degree of error inherent in the analytical method. it would be advantageous to assign a more definite probability to the result of the measurement by combining the error distribution of the result around the true value and the distribution of the healthy population that serves as a reference. bayesian ... | 2005 | 1112041 |

| bacteriophage-associated spherical bodies in bacteroides fragilis. | unique spherical bodies with multilayered walls were observed by electron microscopy in cells of a single strain of bacteroides fragilis subsp. fragilis. phage-like particles were present in the same cells, both free in the cytoplasm and within the spheres. the proportion of cells containing the phage-associated spherical structures ranged from less than 0.01% to about 7% depending on the culture conditions. phage particles of morphological type b and spherical bodies were also found free in the ... | 1975 | 1117488 |
| bacteroides: a cause of residual abscess? | bacteroides fragilis as a cause of residual abscess has not been previously demonstrated. this clinical and bacteriologic study of 54 consecutive cases of appendectomy in children suggests that if b. fragilis is found in the peritoneal fluid at the time of operation there is a strong possibility of residual abscess development. special collection and culture methods are necessary to obtain positive cultures of this strictly anaerobic organism. | 1975 | 1123703 |
| effects of time and growth media on short-chain fatty acid production by bacteroides fragilis. | gas-liquid chromatography was used to monitor the evolution of short chain fatty acids by bacteroides fragilis in five media. acetic and succinic acids, the prominent end products encountered, were readily detected within 24 h. propionic, isobutyric, isovaleric, and lactic acids were usually recorded in more limited quantities. maximum rates of bacterial multiplication, glucose catabolism, and end-production coincided with the first 24 h in carbohydrate-supplemented media. extended incubation (6 ... | 1975 | 1124920 |
| tryptophanase of fecal flora as a possible factor in the etiology of colon cancer. | twenty-three strains of intestinal anaerobes obtained from two laboratories were examined for indole production from tryptophan. among the 23 isolates tested, three of bacteroides fragilis thetaiotaomicron and one citrobacter sp. were indole positive. the tryptophanase of the indole-positive strains of intestinal anaerobes was inducible by tryptophan and was susceptible to glucose repression. the products of tryptophanase activity were formed in stoichiometric amounts by dialyzed, freshly prepar ... | 1975 | 1127736 |
