Analysis of EST and lectin expressions in hemocytes of Manila clams (Ruditapes philippinarum)(Bivalvia: Mollusca) infected with Perkinsus olseni
The hemocytes of invertebrates play key roles in both cellular and humoral immune reactions
by phagocytosis or delivering immune factors such as lectin and anti-microbial peptides. …

Acinetobacter oleivorans sp. nov. Is capable of adhering to and growing on diesel-oil
A diesel-oil and n-hexadecane-degrading novel bacterial strain, designated DR1 T , was
isolated from a rice paddy in Deok-So, South Korea. The strain DR1 T cells were Gram-negative…

[HTML][HTML] Streptothricin F is a bactericidal antibiotic effective against highly drug-resistant gram-negative bacteria that interacts with the 30S subunit of the 70S ribosome
The streptothricin natural product mixture (also known as nourseothricin) was discovered in
the early 1940s, generating intense initial interest because of excellent gram-negative activity…

Protection against diesel oil toxicity by sodium chloride-induced exopolysaccharides in Acinetobacter sp. strain DR1
Acinetobacter sp. strain DR1 is capable of growth on diesel oil. Interestingly, the
degradation of diesel oil by the strain DR1 is enhanced in the presence of sodium chloride (NaCl). …
