| nucleic acid hybridization studies on microbacterium, curtobacterium, agromyces and related taxa. | thirty strains of agromyces, arthrobacter, curtobacterium, brevibacterium, corynebacterium and microbacterium, exhibiting the rare peptidoglycan of group b, were subjected to extensive nucleic acid hybridization studies. the dna homology values indicate that corynebacterium insidiosum dsm 20157 is genetically identical with corynebacterium michiganense dsm 20134. corynebacterium sepedonicum ncppb 378 and corynebacterium nebraskense dsm 20400 are closely related to corynebacterium michiganense ds ... | 1982 | 6183393 |
| hydrocarbon biodegradation in oxygen-limited sequential batch reactors by consortium from weathered, oil-contaminated soil. | we studied the use of sequential batch reactors under oxygen limitation to improve and maintain consortium ability to biodegrade hydrocarbons. air-agitated tubular reactors (2.5 l) were operated for 20 sequential 21-day cycles. maya crude oil-paraffin mixture (13,000 mg/l) was used as the sole carbon source. the reactors were inoculated with a consortium from the rhizosphere of cyperus laxus, a native plant that grows naturally in weathered, contaminated soil. oxygen limitation was induced in th ... | 2005 | 15920621 |
| curtobacterium ginsengisoli sp. nov., isolated from soil of a ginseng field. | a gram-positive, non-motile, pale-yellow, short rod-shaped bacterium, strain dcy26(t), was isolated from soil of a ginseng field in south korea and was investigated to determine its taxonomic position. the organism grew optimally at 30-37 degrees c. the g+c content of its dna was 65.8 mol%. phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rrna gene sequences revealed that strain dcy26(t) was related most closely to species of the genus curtobacterium, in the family microbacteriaceae. strain dcy26(t) showed hi ... | 2008 | 18842862 |
| a cold-active extracellular metalloprotease from curtobacterium luteum (mtcc 7529): enzyme production and characterization. | a novel psychro-tolerant bacterium, curtobacterium luteum, secreting an extracellular protease was isolated from the soil of gangotri glacier, western himalaya. maximum enzyme production was achieved when the strain was grown in a ph-neutral medium containing skim milk at 15 degrees c over 120 h. the metal ions such as zn(2+) and cr(2+) enhanced enzyme production. the specific activity of purified enzyme was 8,090 units/mg after 34.1-fold purification. the 115 kda enzyme was a metalloprotease (a ... | 2008 | 19164881 |
| purification and properties of cold-active metalloprotease from curtobacterium luteum and effect of culture conditions on production. | curtobacterium luteum, a gram-positive psychrotrophic bacterium, secreting an extracellular protease was isolated from the soil of gangotri glacier, western himalaya. the maximum enzyme production was achieved when isolate was grown in a ph-neutral medium containing skim milk at 15 degrees c over 120 hour. the metal ions such as zn2+ and cr2+ enhanced enzyme production. the specific activity of purified enzyme was 8090 u/mg after 34.1 fold purification. the 115 kd enzyme was a metalloprotease (a ... | 2008 | 19306578 |
| evaluation of antibacterial activity, phenol and flavonoid contents of thespesia populnea flower extracts. | flavonoids which were reported as having many pharmacological activities, antimicrobial, antioxidant, cytotoxic, chemoprevention activities and they possess strong antiproliferative effects related to inhibition of cell cycle progression and apoptosis induction. on the basis of this thespesia populnea (l.) sol. ex correa (family-malvaceae) was selected and it is having the major composition of flavonoids and the antibacterial activity of methanolic extract of thespesia populnea flowers was inves ... | 2009 | 19553175 |
