Antibiotic-Producing Bacteria as a Possible Defence of Birds against Pathogenic Microorganisms
Theory strongly suggests that beneficial symbiotic bacteria could be common within birds. Our argument is based on the existence of within-host competition for resources between bacteria (i.e. bacterial interference), and on the differential effect that host fitness (i.e., reproductive success and probability of survival) has on fitness of different bacteria. If reproductive success of hosts is...
متن کاملAntagonistic Activity of Antibiotic Producing Streptomyces sp. against Fish and Human Pathogenic Bacteria
In this study, attempts were made to isolate Streptomyces sp. from soil samples of two different regions of Bangladesh and evaluate their antagonistic activity against fish and human pathogenic bacteria. A total of 10 isolates were identified as Streptomyces sp. based on several morphological, physiological and biochemical tests. Cross streak method was used to observe the antagonistic activity...
متن کاملAptamers against pathogenic microorganisms
An important current issue of modern molecular medicine and biotechnology is the search for new approaches to early diagnostic assays and adequate therapy of infectious diseases. One of the promising solutions to this problem might be a development of nucleic acid aptamers capable of interacting specifically with bacteria, protozoa, and viruses. Such aptamers can be used for the specific recogn...
متن کاملParaoxonases as protective agents against N-acyl homoserine lactone - producing pathogenic microorganisms.
ABSTRACT Paraoxonases are a group of enzymes with a high "substrate-promiscuity", being able to act on many structurally different compounds. To date, there is no consensus regarding the physiological substrate(s) of these enzymes. Recent data suggest that the N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) produced by different Gram-negative bacteria, including the opportunistic Pseudomonas aeruginosa, coul...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Effect of Lactic Acid Bacteria against Common Pathogenic Bacteria
Abstract Background and Objective: Probiotics are living microorganisms that have beneficial effects on the health of digestive system. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial ability of acidic and neutral supernatants (culture supernatant) of lactic acid bacteria against common bacterial pathogens. Meth...
