| spirilla associated with disease of the fetal membranes in cattle (infectious abortion). | spirilla of identical morphological and cultural characters have been isolated in pure culture from the fetuses of fourteen cases of abortion. the condition of the fetus is much the same whether spirilla or the bacilli of abortion are present. this condition is probably due in both cases to interference with the placental circulation. the injurious action of the etiological factor when spirilla are present is limited to the fetal membranes, more particularly the chorion. definite lesions of the ... | 1918 | 19868289 |
| development and application of a bioluminescence-based test for assimilable organic carbon in reclaimed waters. | assimilable organic carbon (aoc) is an important parameter governing the growth of heterotrophic bacteria in drinking water. despite the recognition that variations in treatment practices (e.g., disinfection, coagulation, selection of filter media, and watershed protection) can have dramatic impacts on aoc levels in drinking water, few water utilities routinely measure aoc levels because of the difficulty of the method. to simplify the method, the pseudomonas fluorescens p-17 and spirillum sp. s ... | 2009 | 19820156 |
| proposal of spirillum winogradskyi sp. nov., a novel microaerophilic species, an emended description of the genus spirillum and request for an opinion regarding the status of the species spirillum volutans ehrenberg 1832. | a novel obligately organotrophic, facultatively microaerophilic spirillum, designated strain d-427(t), was isolated from sulfidic sludge of a municipal wastewater-treatment plant. cells were gram-negative, large and highly motile due to bipolar tufts of flagella covered with mucous sheaths. coccoid cells were sometimes formed. strain d-427(t) grew optimally at ph 7.5-7.8 and 28 degrees c in the presence of 2 % o(2) in the gas phase. the organism showed oxidase and very low catalase activity. the ... | 2009 | 19625415 |

| quantification of the filterability of freshwater bacteria through 0.45, 0.22, and 0.1 microm pore size filters and shape-dependent enrichment of filterable bacterial communities. | micro-filtration is a standard process for sterilization in scientific research, medical, and industrial applications, and to remove particles in drinking water or wastewater treatment. it is generally assumed, and confirmed by quantifying filtration efficiency by plating, that filters with a 0.1-0.45 microm pore size can retain bacteria. in contrast to this assumption, we have regularly observed the passage of a significant fraction of natural freshwater bacterial communities through 0.45, 0.22 ... | 2007 | 17993151 |

| isolation and characterization of dechlorospirillum anomalous strain jb116 from a sewage treatment plant. | the dissimilatory perchlorate reducers mainly belong to two monophyletic groups, viz. dechloromonas and azospira in the beta subclass of proteobacteria. the present study describes isolation and genetic characterization of dechlorospirillum anomalous strain jb116 that belongs to alpha subclass of proteobacteria. the strain jb116 was isolated under facultative anaerobic conditions on a growth medium containing sodium perchlorate and sodium acetate as electron (e(-)) acceptor and e(-) donor, respe ... | 2008 | 16782316 |
| [two new species of microaerophilic sulfur spirilla, spirillum winogradskii sp. nov. and spirillum kriegii sp. nov]. | new microaerophilic sulfur-oxidizing spirilla were isolated from hydrogen sulfide sludge of wastewater treatment plants. strains d-427 and d-430 have spiral cells that are highly motile due to bipolar flagellum bundles covered with mucous sheaths. under a phase-contrast microscope, these bundles are visible as single polar flagella. spheroplasts are formed in the stationary growth phase. both strains are obligate organotrophs able to oxidize a number of reduced sulfur compounds. the oxidation of ... | 2006 | 16758869 |
