| a new obligately chemolithoautotrophic, nitrite-oxidizing bacterium, nitrospira moscoviensis sp. nov. and its phylogenetic relationship. | a gram-negative, non-motile, non-marine, nitrite-oxidizing bacterium was isolated from an enrichment culture initiated with a sample from a partially corroded area of an iron pipe of a heating system in moscow, russia. the cells were 0.9-2.2 microns x 0.2-0.4 microns in size. they were helical- to vibroid-shaped and often formed spirals with up to three turns 0.8-1.0 micron in width. the organism possessed an enlarged periplasmic space and lacked intracytoplasmic membranes and carboxysomes. the ... | 1995 | 7646315 |
| [groups and sources of yeasts in house dust]. | house dust contains bacteria, mycelial fungi, microarthropods, and yeasts. the house dust samples collected in 25 apartments in moscow and the moscow region were found to contain yeasts belonging to the genera candida, cryptococcus, debaryomyces, rhodotorula, sporobolomyces, and trichosporon. the most frequently encountered microorganisms were typical epiphytic yeasts, such as cryptococcus diffluens and rhodotorula mucilaginosa, which are capable of long-term preservation in an inactive state. t ... | 2004 | 15074050 |
| cryptococcus festucosus sp. nov. a new hymenomycetous yeast in the holtermannia clade. | five yeast strains belonging to the genus cryptococcus vuillemin were isolated from steppe plants and turf collected in the prioksko-terrasny biosphere reserve (moscow region, russia). sequence analyses of the d1/d2 domains of the 26s rdna and of the internal transcribed spacer region revealed that these yeast strains and strain cbs 8016 have almost identical sequences and belong to the holtermannia clade of the tremellomycetidae (basidiomycota, hymenomycetes). a novel species named cryptococcus ... | 2004 | 15714230 |
| [seasonal dynamic of the numbers of epiphytic yeasts]. | the numbers of epiphytic yeasts on the leaves and flowers of 25 plant species throughout their vegetation period was determined. the numbers of yeasts on the leaves were found to change regularly throughout the year. the average dynamics for all of the plant species investigated included an increase in yeast numbers during spring and summer with the maximum in late autumn and early winter. the character of the yeasts' dynamics depends on the ecological characteristics of the plants and the durat ... | 2007 | 18069328 |
| physiological and phylogenetic characterization of a novel lithoautotrophic nitrite-oxidizing bacterium, 'candidatus nitrospira bockiana'. | a new isolate of a lithoautotrophic nitrite-oxidizing bacterium was obtained from internal corrosion deposits from a steel pipeline of the moscow heating system. the organism oxidized nitrite as the sole energy source and fixed carbon dioxide as the only carbon source. the cells were extremely pleomorphic: loosely wound spirals, slightly curved and even straight rods were detected, as well as coccoid cells. the highest rate of nitrite consumption (1.5 mm nitrite as substrate) was measured at 42 ... | 2008 | 18175716 |
| [microflora in ent and cns diseases in patients living in the moscow region]. | patients with ent and cns inflammation living in the moscow region have been examined for pathogenic contamination of relevant clinical samples. the microflora changes were followed up, pathogenic agents of high and moderate priority were identified. it is shown that for moscow region, ent and cns purulent inflammation is associated primarily with coagulase-negative staphylococci, e. coli, meningococci, s. viridans and yeast fungi. | 2001 | 11530475 |
| [use of ofloxacin in the treatment of infections of the lower respiratory tract]. | the taxonomy of the causative agents of lower respiratory tract infections (lrti) isolated from patients in the moscow region was studied and the clinico-microbiological efficacy and tolerance of ofloxacin used in their treatment were estimated. the microbiological tests of the sputum specimens from 168 patients with lrtis most frequently detected gram positive cocci with the predominance of streptococcus spp. (65.2 per cent) and in particular the str. viridans group (57.7 per cent). neisseria s ... | 1994 | 7848003 |
| ogataea cecidiorum sp. nov., a methanol-assimilating yeast isolated from galls on willow leaves. | ten strains of a new endophytic ascospore-forming, methanol-assimilating yeast were isolated from the galls induced by sawflies on the leaves of willows in the losiny ostrov national park (moscow region). standard phenotypical tests and phylogenetic analyses of 18s rrna gene, 5.8s-its gene region and 26s rrna gene (d1/d2 domains) sequences showed that the species belongs to the genus ogataea. we describe it as ogataea cecidiorum and designate type culture kbp y-3846 (= cbs 11522(t) = vkm y-2982( ... | 2010 | 20373142 |
| [massive isolation of anamorphous ascomycete yeasts candida oleophila from plant phyllosphere]. | many years of research has confirmed a wide distribution of anamorphous ascomycete yeasts in the phyllosphere of diverse plants of the moscow oblast. based on the standard morphological and physiological criteria, on the results of restriction analysis of the 5.8s-its rdna region, and on the sequencing of the d1d2 region of 26s rdna, these yeasts were identified as candida oleophila montrocher. previous isolation of this species has been rare, possibly due to its incorrect identification. this s ... | 2007 | 18297883 |
