| enterobacter cancerogenus (urosević, 1966) dickey and zumoff 1988, a senior subjective synonym of enterobacter taylorae farmer et al. (1985). | strains labelled enterobacter cancerogenus (erwinia cancerogena) and strains labelled enterobacter taylorae were found to constitute a single dna-relatedness group (s1 nuclease hybridization method). furthermore, no phenotypic test among the conventional and nutritional tests performed could differentiate enterobacter cancerogenus from enterobacter taylorae. therefore, enterobacter cancerogenus (urosević, 1966) dickey and zumoff, 1968, is a senior subjective synonym for enterobacter taylorae far ... | 1989 | 2623364 |
| osteomyelitis caused by enterobacter taylorae, formerly enteric group 19. | the first case of osteomyelitis caused by enterobacter taylorae is presented. the infection occurred as a complication to an open fracture in an otherwise healthy host. despite antimicrobial therapy, based on in vitro susceptibilities, it was not possible to establish a microbiologic cure. | 1987 | 3429636 |
| escherichia fergusonii and enterobacter taylorae, two new species of enterobacteriaceae isolated from clinical specimens. | escherichia fergusonii (formerly known as enteric group 10) and enterobacter taylorae (formerly known as enteric group 19) are proposed as new species in the family enterobacteriaceae. by dna hybridization (32p, 60 degrees c, hydroxyapatite), strains of e. fergusonii were 90 to 97% related to the type strain (holotype) atcc 35469. they were most closely related to escherichia coli and more distantly related to species in other genera. e. fergusonii strains are positive for indole production, met ... | 1985 | 3968204 |
| taxonomic notes: synonymy of enterobacter cancerogenus (urosević 1966) dickey and zumoff 1988 and enterobacter taylorae farmer et al. 1985 and resolution of an ambiguity in the biochemical profile. | the descriptions of enterobacter taylorae and enterobacter cancerogenus show differences in key reactions (ornithine decarboxylase and d-sorbitol fermentation) that have not received attention and are inconsistent with the synonymy proposed by grimont and ageron (p. a. d. grimont and e. ageron, res. microbiol. 140:459-465, 1989). a reassessment of the biochemical properties confirms that they are synonymous. we believe that the priority of e. cancerogenus should be maintained in diagnostic and c ... | 1994 | 8068546 |

| factors affecting reduction of selenate to elemental selenium in agricultural drainage water by enterobacter taylorae. | microbial reduction of selenate [se(vi)] to elemental selenium [se(0)] is a useful technique for removing se from agricultural drainage water. a series of batch experiments were conducted in the laboratory to determine the effects of yeast extract (50-1000 mg/l), salinity (ec, 5-75 ds/m), and no(3)(-) (5-100 mg/l) on the removal of se(vi) (2000 microg/l) from drainage water by enterobacter taylorae. results showed that relatively high amounts of yeast extract (500 mg/l) were needed for e. taylor ... | 2003 | 14611174 |
| fate of selenate metabolized by enterobacter taylorae isolated from rice straw. | rice straw has been successfully tested as an effective organic source and a carrier of selenate [se(vi)]-reducing bacteria to remove se(vi) from agricultural drainage water. in this study, an se(vi)-reducing bacterium identified as enterobacter taylorae was isolated from rice straw and used to remove se(vi) from a 0.5% tryptic soy broth (tsb) and high-salt (15.5 ds m(-)(1)) synthetic agricultural drainage water containing se(vi) in a range of 500-5000 microg/l. results showed that e. taylorae r ... | 2003 | 12769533 |
