| 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 |
| characterization of endotoxin from fusobacterium necrophorun. | endotoxic lipopolysachharide (lps) was obtained from phenol-water extraction of cell walls prepared from mass-cultivated fusobacterium necrophorum. the lps was relatively free of nucleic acids and low in protein, and constituted about 4% of the cell walls. upon acid hydrolysis, some of the components detected were hexosamines (7.0%), neutral and reducing sugars (50.5%), heptose (6.4%), 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonate (0.8%), lipid a (21.0%), and phosphorus (1.7%). under electron microscopy the lps appear ... | 1975 | 1112618 |
| biological characterization of fusobacterium necrophorum. cell fractions in preparation for toxin and immunization studies. | fusobacterium necrophorum isolated from bovine liver abscesses was grown in bulk at 37 c for 24 h under a strict anaerobic atmosphere. harvested washed cells were disrupted ultrasonically and fractionated by differential centrifugation into the intracellular (cytoplasm) and cell wall fractions. both intact cells and cell fractions induced generalized cytopathic effect on primary pig kidney cultures and caused a variety of signs of illness and/or death of intraperitoneally injected mice. the inta ... | 1975 | 1120608 |
| sphaerophorus necrophorus: laboratory model for the evaluation of chemotherapeutic agents in mice. | severe necro-purulent lesions were induced in mice following parenteral inoculation of sphaerophorus necrophorus. gross and histological changes observed in the lung, liver, and foot pad of infected mice were similar to those occurring naturally in cattle. the lesions could be prevented, cured or significantly reduced by the administration of chemotherapeutic agents such as sulfonamides, potentiated sulfonamide and antibiotics. the application of this novel laboratory model infection in the prim ... | 1975 | 1126167 |
