S k a 1 k a B.: Hemolytic activity of Staphylococcus hyicus and Staphylococcus chromogenes. Acta vet. Bmo, 57, 1988: 3-11. Hemolytic activity of 135 ~ hyicus and 75 ~ chromogenes strains was examined on sheep, rabbit, human, horse and chicken blood agars. The agar bases were supplemented with 5 % washed erythrocytes of the corresponding animal species. The strains of both staphylococcal species...

Morganella morganii is a gram-negative bacterium from the Enterobacteriaceae family which causes a wide range of clinical infections sometimes with fatal consequences. It is known that more than 50% of isolates of M. morganii from clinical specimens have hemolytic activity that increase their virulence. Pore-forming toxins (PFT) represent the most common group of cytotoxic proteins which contri...

Background: Holothuroids (sea cucumbers) are members of the phylum echinodermata, which produce saponins. Saponins exhibit a wide spectrum of pharmacological and biological activities. In this study, we isolated the crude saponins from the body wall of the dominant Iranian species of sea cucumber, Holothuria leucospilota (H. leucospilota). The purpose of this study was to confirm the presence o...

Four linear and four cyclic analogs of gramicidin S (GS) in which D-Phe was replaced with either D-His, D-Ser, D-Tyr or D-Asn have been prepared by solid-phase peptide synthesis and characterized with respect to antibacterial, antifungal and hemolytic activity. Unlike previous reports, GS and a number of cyclic analogs were found to be active against gram-positive as well as gram-negative bacte...

OBJECTIVES Administration of ethylene glycol monoalkyl ethers to rodents causes acute hemolytic anemia. Metabolic activation of these chemicals to alkoxyacetic acids is required to develop hemolytic effect. Current study was undertaken to compare the hemolytic activity of isopropoxyethanol (IPE) and phenoxyethanol (PhE) in male rats. The main goal of this study was to evaluate the role of alkyl...

Results. In order to study the hemolytic activity of Streptococcus, α -, β - and γ -isolated from samples clinical material synanthropic birds rodents, we studied 324 cultures Streptococcus. rats, mice caught in livestock buildings -types hemolysis were mainly manifested, -hemolysis was observed less frequently. To properties 140 Streptococcus isolated air, washings walls floors, as well feeder...
