Preservation of Serratia marcescens by high-vacuum lyophilization.
Water-washed Serratia marcescens (ATCC strain 14041) cells were lyophilized in an all-glass system capable of evacuation to pressures of less than 5 x 10(-6) torr. Lyophilization at the lowest pressures resulted in 50 to 65% survival for unstabilized washed organisms compared with 10 to 20% when the cells were lyophilized at pressures of about 2.5 x 10(-2) torr. At the latter pressures, 45 to 6...
متن کاملVacuum Foam Drying: An Alternative to Lyophilization for Biomolecule Preservation
Vacuum foam drying is evaluated as an alternative for lyophilization for enhanced process and storage stability of bovine serum albumin. The protein protective efficiency of different stabilizers was compared in vacuum foam drying and lyophilization. Sucrose mixtures produced better foam characters than mannitol. Unlike calcium lactate, incorporation of polyvinyl pyrrolidone to sucrose synergis...
متن کاملThreonine degradation by Serratia marcescens.
The wild strain of Serratia marcescens rapidly degraded threonine and formed aminoacetone in a medium containing glucose and urea. Extracts of this strain showed high threonine dehydrogenase and "biosynthetic" threonine deaminase activities, but no threonine aldolase activity. Threonine dehydrogenase-deficient strain Mu-910 was selected among mutants unable to grow on threonine as the carbon so...
متن کاملEndophthalmitis caused by Serratia marcescens.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical features and treatment outcomes of 10 patients with culture-proven Serratia marcescens endophthalmitis. PATIENTS AND METHODS Records from the microbiology laboratory for the period from January 1980 through June 1993 were reviewed. Ten patients were identified who had positive anterior chamber or vitreous cultures and clinical signs of endopht...
متن کاملSerratia marcescens.
Over the last 30 years, Serratia marcescens has become an important cause of nosocomial infection. There have been many reports concerning the identification, antibiotic susceptibility, pathogenicity, epidemiological investigations and typing of this organism. Accurate identification is important in defining outbreaks. The API 20E system has been used widely, but is not individually satisfactor...
