function of various intestinal bacteria in converting germfree mice to the normal state.earlier work had shown that a collection of anaerobic bacteria, in conjunction with facultative anaerobes, may be implanted into germfree mice, thereby rendering the animals "normal" with respect to a variety of parameters tested. the present experiments indicate that a different collection of anaerobic bacteria, isolated from the cecum of normal mice, was necessary to convert germfree mice to the "normal" state when the animals were fed a crude diet, rather than the refined food which had been ...19724631910
experimental shigella infections in laboratory animals. i. antagonism by human normal flora components in gnotobiotic mice.germfree mice were associated with selected species of human intestinal bacteria and then challenged with a streptomycin-resistant shigella flexneri strain. antagonism against shigella was most pronounced in mice associated with escherichia coli and least pronounced in mice associated with bacteroides fragilis. a moderate degree of antagonism could be demonstrated in mice associated with either streptococcus faecalis or bifidobacterium adolescentis. shigella persisted in the cecal contents of e. ...19724631914
growth of streptococcus faecium in the presence of lysozyme.streptococcus faecium can grow normally in the presence of lysozyme, despite the observation that cell suspensions of the organism are lysed readily by the enzyme. growth in the presence of lysozyme is not due to resistant cells, and the culture is lysed after growth if the ph of the medium is not allowed to drop too low for lysozyme activity. growth followed by lysis in the presence of lysozyme was not exhibited by other organisms tested which were either significantly more resistant or more se ...19724631915

folate metabolism in streptococcus faecalis.the possibility that the inability of streptococcus faecalis to utilize 5-methyltetrahydropteroylglutamate or pteroyltriglutamate might be due to permeability was investigated. whereas the former was taken up by s. faecalis cells growing on pteroylglutamic acid, the latter was not. no subsequent conversion of the 5-methyltetrahydropteroylglutamate took place and accumulation, which was against a considerable concentration gradient, was inhibited by fluoride. it would thus appear to be an active ...19724627689
the lipid-teichoic acid complex in the cytoplasmic membrane of streptococcus faecalis n.c.i.b. 8191.1. a lipid-teichoic acid complex was isolated from streptococcus faecalis n.c.i.b. 8191. the covalent nature of the linkage between teichoic acid and lipid was established. 2. the complex exhibits macromolecular properties in solution, and ultracentrifugation studies show that these are due to micelle formation. 3. from chemical studies it is concluded that the teichoic acid is a poly(glycerol phosphate) in which some of the glycerol hydroxyl groups possess kojibiosyl [2-o-alpha-d-glucopyranosyl ...19724627730
quantitative sputum culture as a means of excluding false positive reports in the routine microbiology laboratory.a relatively simple technique for sputum homogenization and dilution is described. results show that this technique is reliable for isolation and quantitative culture of organisms from cases of chest infection. the technique has resulted in significant reduction in false positive reports, particularly when a system of interpretative reporting is utilized based on 10(7) organisms per millilitre of sputum being accepted as evidence of significant infection.19724627746
