| tsukamurella tyrosinosolvens sp. nov. | chemotaxonomic and 16s ribosomal dna sequence analyses of four bacterial isolates from blood cultures from patients with cardiac pacemaker implants and sputa of patients with chronic lung infections clearly demonstrated that these bacteria belong to the genus tsukamurella. dna-dna hybridization data, as well as the physiological characteristics of the isolates, indicate that they are closely related and belong to a single species that differs from previously described members of the genus tsukam ... | 1997 | 9226890 |
| tsukamurella conjunctivitis: a novel clinical syndrome. | in this report, we describe the first three cases of tsukamurella conjunctivitis in the literature. all three patients presented with congestion of one eye with small amounts of serous discharge for 1 to 2 days. all three recovered after 10 days of treatment with polymyxin b-neomycin or chloramphenicol eyedrops. sequencing of the 16s rrna genes of the three isolates recovered from the serous discharge of the three patients showed that they were all tsukamurella species. the phenotypic characteri ... | 2003 | 12843095 |

| isolation and identification of dibutyl phthalate-degrading bacteria from hydrospheres in tokyo. | dibutyl phthalate (dbp) is used widely as a plasticizer and is thought to negatively affect various organisms. to isolate and investigate dbp-degrading bacteria from hydrospheres in tokyo, strains were selected on ynb medium containing dbp as the sole carbon source, and candidate strains were identified by zones of clearing around the colonies. degradation of dbp by the strains was subsequently measured with hplc, and bacterial identification was accomplished using 16s rdna sequences. nineteen s ... | 2009 | 19700919 |
