Sequence and comparative analysis of the genome of HSV-1 strain McKrae

Creator:: Watson, G., Xu, W., Reed, A., Babra, B., Putman, T., Wick, E., Wechsler, S., Rohrmann, G. F., and Jin, L.
Abstract:: Ocular infection by HSV-1 strain McKrae is neurovirulent in both mice and rabbits and causes fatal encephalitis in approximately 50% of animals. In addition, it spontaneously reactivates with high frequency relative to other HSV-1 strains in rabbits. We sequenced the McKrae strain genome and compared its coding protein sequences with...

Analysis of the genome of leporid herpesvirus 4

Creator:: Babra, Bobby, Watson, Gregory, Xu, Wayne, Jeffrey, Brendan, Xu, Jia-Rong, Rockey, Dan, Rohrmann, George, and Jin, Ling
Abstract:: The genome of a herpesvirus highly pathogenic to rabbits, leporid herpesvirus 4 (LHV-4), was analyzed using high-throughput DNA sequencing technology and primer walking. The assembled DNA sequences were further verified by restriction endonuclease digestion and Southern blot analyses. The total length of the LHV-4 genome was determined to be about...

Significance of pigments in radiation resistance of Micrococcus radiodurans

Creator:: Krabbenhoft, Kenneth Louis
Abstract:: An ecological study of a microorganism similar to that isolated in 1956 and designated as Micrococcus radiodurans indicated that the organism could be isolated from several different environments. By taking advantage of its radio-resistivity, high levels of gamma radiation were used in the isolation procedures to inactivate most of the...

Some aspects of the mechanism of action of iodophor and other germicides on microorganisms

Creator:: Shikashio, Tommy Kiyoshi
Abstract:: The concentrations of iodophor necessary to reduce the activity of several metabolic enzyme systems 50 percent was used as the basic approach in attempts to elucidate the mechanism of germicidal action of iodine. For comparisons, a chlorine-releasing germicide (Trichlorocide) and a quaternary ammonium compound were also tested. It was found...

Growth and development of tetracycline resistant Chlamydia suis

Creator:: Lenart, Jennifer
Abstract:: Tetracycline is a front line antibiotic for the treatment of chlamydial infections in both humans and animals, and the emergence of tetracycline resistant (tet[superscript R]) Chlamydia is of significant clinical importance. Recently, several tet[superscript R] chlamydial strains have been isolated from swine (Sus scrofa) raised in production facilities in Nebraska....

Strain-resolved microbial community proteomics reveals simultaneous aerobic and anaerobic function during gastrointestinal tract colonization of a preterm infant

Creator:: Brooks, Brandon, Mueller, Ryan S., Young, Jacque C., Morowitz, Michael J., Hettich, Robert L., and Banfield, Jillian F.
Abstract:: While there has been growing interest in the gut microbiome in recent years, it remains unclear whether closely related species and strains have similar or distinct functional roles and if organisms capable of both aerobic and anaerobic growth do so simultaneously. To investigate these questions, we implemented a high-throughput mass...

Apophallus microsoma N. SP. from Chicks Infected with Metacercariae from Coho Salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch ) and Review of the Taxonomy and Pathology of the Genus Apophallus (Heterophyidae)

Creator:: Ferguson, Jayde A., Locke, Sean A., Font, William F., Steinauer, Michelle L., Marcogliese, David J., Cojocaru, Calin D., and Kent, Michael L.
Abstract:: Metacercariae of an unidentified species of Apophallus Luhe, 1909 are associated with overwinter mortality in coho salmon, Oncorhynchus kisutch (Walbaum, 1792), in the West Fork Smith River, Oregon. We infected chicks with these metacercariae in order to identify the species. The average size of adult worms was 197 x 57...

Factors affecting the Ceratomyxa shasta infectious cycle and transmission between polychaete and salmonid hosts

Creator:: Bjork, Sarah J.
Abstract:: Ceratomyxa shasta is a myxozoan parasite that infects salmonid fishes causing the disease ceratomyxosis that is characterized by severe hemorrhage and necrosis of the intestine and death of the fish host. Ceratomyxa shasta is endemic to the Pacific Northwestern United States and Canada, where epizootics are reported for both wild...

Factors related to resisitance of bacteria to quaternary ammonium germicides

Creator:: Wang, Wei-sheng
Abstract:: This study was carried out to compare the effects of a quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) upon strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa which were either sensitive or resistant to the germicide. The cationic QAC used was alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride. The resistant types were isolated from the sensitive population by selection of mutants which...
