flavimonas oryzihabitans as a cause of ocular infection.		1991	1915404
purification and characterization of a new nad(+)-dependent enzyme, l-tartrate decarboxylase, from pseudomonas sp. group ve-2.	a new enzyme, l-tartrate decarboxylase, was found in cells of pseudomonas sp. group ve-2. the enzyme was purified to homogeneity and characterized. the enzyme requires k+, mg2+, and nad+ for l-tartrate decarboxylation. the dependence of the enzymatic decarboxylation on nad+ suggests that the decarboxylation involves redox reactions of the substrate. the enzyme catalyzes nad(+)-linked oxidative decarboxylation of d-malate as well. the enzyme is composed of four subunits with identical molecular w ...	1991	1778975
flavimonas oryzihabitans (cdc group ve-2).		1992	1517547
flavimonas oryzihabitans (cdc group ve-2) bacteraemia associated with hickman catheters.	flavimonas oryzihabitans is a potential pathogen that may infect patients who have major medical illnesses, especially those who are undergoing surgery or have indwelling venous catheters in situ. flavimonas oryzihabitans has been isolated from a wide range of body sites, and the portals of entry are major wounds or implanted foreign materials. we report two cases of f. oryzihabitans bacteraemia associated with the use of hickman catheters for administration of the patients' chemotherapeutic age ...	1992	1350605
characteristics of yellow-pigmented nonfermentative bacilli (groups ve-1 and ve-2) encountered in clinical bacteriology.	the morphological and physiological characteristics of 20 strains of motile, gram-negative, yellow-pigmented oxidative bacilli (groups ve-1 and ve-2) isolated in clinical bacteriology are described. electron micrographs demonstrate the polar multitrichous flagella of group ve-1 and polar monotrichous flagella of group ve-2. data obtained from guanine plus cytosine ratio studies of 56.8% for ve-1 and 68.9% for ve-2 distinguish the two groups of bacteria.	1975	1176609
group ve-2 (chromobacterium typhiflavum) bacteremia.	group ve-2 (chromobacterium typhiflavum) bacteremia occurred in a severely traumatized, post-neurosurgical patient. a discussion of the clinical occurrence of the organism, bacteriological characteristics, and antibiotic sensitivities is presented.	1977	914996
