Growth, survival, and antibiotic resistance transfer of Klebsiella in a botanical environment

Creator:: Yamamoto, Deborah Keiko
Abstract:: The ubiquitous presence of the coliform bacterium Klebsiella in botanical environments has been demonstrated. In this study, Klebsiella were found to multiply and colonize growing radish plants following contamination of seeds. All 29 cultures of Klebsiella tested from 5 different environments were capable of growth to 10⁶-10⁷ cells/gram of plant...

Nutritional factors associated with the presence and growth of Klebsiella in redwood environments

Creator:: Talbot, Henry Wilkinson
Abstract:: Bacteria of the genus Klebsiella have been found to be associated with redwood water storage reservoirs, redwood chips, and liquid expressed from within living redwood. A 1,000 gallon experimental redwood reservoir was employed to determine how to control the presence of Klebsiella and Enterobacter in drinking water stored in these...

Specific indicator organisms can define the magnitude and origins of non-point pollution in rural environments

Creator:: Lamka, Karla Gail
Abstract:: A comprehensive study was made on the impact to surface and ground water pollution by a recently populated rural neighborhood located in the foothills of western Oregon. A stream originating in a limited access forest and flowing through a modern zoned housing development was routinely monitored. Sampling was performed during...

Survival of fecal coliform bacteria in sludge-amended soils

Creator:: Hartel, Peter G.
Abstract:: A study was conducted to determine the effects or temperature, solar radiation, rainfall, and saturated flow on fecal coliform numbers in sewage sludge-amended soils. To determine this, four 4.6 X 13.7 m field plots were each amended in summer and in winter with 800 liters of anaerobically-digested sewage sludge, and...

Subdivision of the genus Klebsiella on the basis of DNA-DNA membrane filter hybridization

Creator:: Woodward, Barton Clarke
Abstract:: The molecular relationship of 39 biochemically identified strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae was determined by DNA-DNA hybridization experiments. Cultures examined were isolated from vegetables, pulp mills, drinking water and clinical (human and animal) habitats. These organisms produced reassociation values of 7% to 100% with ATCC 13882 K. pneumoniae as the labeled...

The simultaneous expression of metal tolerance and antibiotic resistance by bacteria from drinking water systems

Creator:: Calomiris, Jon James
Abstract:: Previous studies of six Oregon public water supply systems revealed that greater proportions of the standard plate count (SPC) bacteria from distribution waters were multiple antibiotic resistant (MAR) compared to isolates from the corresponding source raw waters. In the present study, two of these water systems were examined further to...

Characterization of antibiotic resistant enteric bacteria that contaminate vegetables

Creator:: Salama, Maysoon
Abstract:: Previous studies revealed the high incidence of drug resistant bacteria from foods. In this study, market vegetables were tested for their contamination with antibiotic resistant (ABR) enteric bacteria. A total of 402 bacterial strains from surface vegetables (e.g., lettuce) and 321 from root vegetables (e.g., carrots) were examined for their...
