During the years 2007 and 2008, samples of winter jasmine (Jasminum nudiflorum) with symptoms of galls on shoots were collected from Shiraz, Fars province, Iran. Gram and oxidase negative, aerobic bacterium that produced fluorescent pigment on Kingۥs B medium was isolated from galls of infected trees. All isolates produced a hypersensitive reaction in tobacco. They were negative in arginine dih...

In this study, cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) was prepared and meso-tetrakis(4-nitrophenyl)porphyrin (TNPP) was immobilized on it. The product was identified by techniques of UV-Vis, fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectroscopy (DRS), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The effect of an amount of a loaded porphyrin comp...

the genus pseudomonas consists of more than 120 species that are ubiquitous in moist environments such as water and soil ecosystems and are pathogenic to animals and humans. within the genus of pseudomonas, p. aeruginosa is most frequently associated with human infections. the bacterium is regarded as an opportunistic pathogen, primarily causing nosocomial infections in immunocompromised patien...

1. Twelve bacterial isolates that grow with trimethylamine as sole source of carbon and energy were obtained in pure culture. All the isolates grow on methylamine, dimethylamine and trimethylamine. One isolate, bacterium 4B6, grows only on these methylamines whereas another isolate, bacterium C2A1, also grows on methanol but neither grows on methane; these two organisms are obligate methylotrop...

Uricase producing bacterium was isolated from poultry waste with a nutrient agar media containing uric acid. The isolation of bacterium was based on uricolytic activity on agar surface. The optimum condition for the growth of uricase producing bacterium was evaluated. The results showed that the maximum zone of clearance (16 mm) was recorded. Based on morphological and biochemical tests, the ba...
