The use of omics for disease evaluation in the brains of marine mammals

Creator:: Rosales, Stephanie
Abstract:: Marine mammals are top predators that are essential for the health and function of our oceans. These top predators are often affected by various factors that can be detrimental to their populations. Therefore, there is a need to evaluate undetermined causes of deaths and to better understand known diseases in...

Development of mucosal vaccines for avian influenza A virus composed of recombinant Lactococcus lactis and Streptococcus gordonii

Creator:: Reese, Kaleb A.
Abstract:: Novel mucosal vaccines (LL-M2e, LL-HAe, SG-HAe) were constructed from live, non-pathogenic Lactococcus lactis or Streptococcus gordonii that express conserved regions of HA or M2 antigens from avian influenza virus (AIV) A. All three vaccines evoked antigen-specific serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) responses in vaccinated chickens. The addition of the adjuvant cholera...

Differential agar media for the identification of the Salmonella and Arizona groups of Enterobacteriaceae

Creator:: Stroup, John Raymond
Abstract:: Twelve differential agars have been studied in the development of media to presumptively identify the Salmonella Subgenera I-IV. Medium No. 7B/A (or Medium No. 7-H₂S Strip) combined the malonate, dulcitol, lysine decarboxylase and hydrogen sulfide reactions in one tube. It was designed to be used at the TSI stage of...

Human health significance of vibrios from the aquatic environment

Creator:: Nishibuchi, Mitsuaki
Abstract:: For the enrichment and enumeration of Vibrio fluvialis, a broth medium was designed by modifying alkaline peptone (AP) medium. This new V. fluvialis enrichment medium (FEM) was shown to be more effective than AP medium in field samplings where a total of 177 samples (estuarine waters and sediment, sewage, and...

Partial purification and properties of a columnaricin isolated from the myxobacterium Chondrococcus columnaris

Creator:: Needleman, David Sol
Abstract:: Of the 14 strains of Chondrococcus columnaris examined, 4 produced antagonistic substances that inhibited the growth of other strains of this species. The antagonistic substance produced by strain 3-P63-12 was examined in greater detail. Since the inhibitory substance had an extremely narrow spectrum of activity, and was not transmissible in...

Detection and transmission of Mycobacterium marinum and Mycobacterium chelonae in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Creator:: Peterson, Tracy Shawn
Abstract:: Mycobacteriosis is a common disease of laboratory zebrafish (Danio rerio). Different infection patterns occur in zebrafish depending on mycobacterial species. Mycobacterium marinum and M. haemophilum produce virulent infections associated with high mortality, whereas M. chelonae is more wide spread and not associated with high mortality. Identification of mycobacterial infections to...

The rpsL gene and streptomycin resistance in Streptococcus gordonii and Streptococcus pyogenes

Creator:: Vidyasanker, Radhika
Abstract:: Streptomycin resistance in both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria is usually caused by a single mutation in the rpsL gene. The rpsL gene encodes the S12 protein of the ribosomal complex. The rpsL genes of various bacteria have consensus regions in their sequences. Primers were designed from these consensus pockets and...

Molecular characterization of the proteinase and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis Virus, a fish birnavirus

Creator:: Mason, Carla L.
Abstract:: The A segment of infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) is expressed as a polyprotein encoding three primary gene products, VP2, NS and VP3, from a large open reading frame. The nucleotide sequence for the A segment of the Sp isolate of IPNV was determined. The NS protein is the putative...

Chromosomal Recombination Targets in Chlamydial Lateral Gene Transfer In Vitro

Creator:: Kim, Debbie Blue
Abstract:: Background: Lateral gene transfer (LGT) among C. trachomatis strains is common, both in isolates generated in the laboratory and those examined directly from patients. This is a challenging concept because there are very few examples of recent acquisition of foreign DNA by Chlamydia spp. There is no understanding of the...
