Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains isolated from fish and subsurface layers of the Odra Estuary waters were examined. Statistical comparison showed that the increase in numbers of S. cerevisiae strains was related to an increase in the total number of yeasts and yeast-like fungi in tested samples. In case of analysis of fish mycoflora, correlation wasn’t observed between fish species, places of catch...
A total of 90 Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from 4 hospitals in the west-north region of Poland were studied by arbitrarily primed polymerase chain reaction (AP-PCR). AP-PCR results revealed the presence of 11 main groups of patterns (A-K) and 5 unique patterns among isolates. Generally, they were characterized by high resistance to antibiotics tested and significant differences in serogroups...
Results of qualitative and quantitative studies on microflora of low-salt herring slices supplemented with 0%, 0.2% and 0.3% of sodium benzoate (E-211) are presented. Herring slices were subjected to low salting with addition of 0%, 0.2% and 0.3% of sodium benzoate according to a recipe provided by a local manufacturer. It was observed that sodium benzoate reduced diversity of bacteria and yeasts...
The effect of incubation temperature on hydrophobic properties of Listeria spp. using ammonium sulphate aggregation test was analyzed. 29 strains of Listeria spp. isolated from beef, pork and smoked fish were tested. Results show that reducing the incubation temperature causes transformation of hydrophilic Listeria spp. into hydrophobic.
The effect of physicochemical factors: temperature (20°C, 60°C, 100°C, 121.1°C), pH (2-9), inorganic and organic components, i.e. sodium chloride (5%, 10%, 15%, 20%), carbohydrates: glucose and starch (10%, 20%, 40%), proteins: casein (2.5%, 5%, 10%) and their combinations (e.g. prolonged incubation time at low pH) on in vitro detection of specific fragment of L. monocytogenes iap gene (453 bp) carried...
Results of various culture conditions on adhesion of Listeria monocytogenes strains to hexadecane are presented. Listeria strains cultured in optimal conditions adhered to this hydrophobic carbohydrate to a small extent. It reveals that their cell walls have hydrophilic properties. Application of low-nutrient medium, incubation at low temperature, acidification of medium to pH 5 and addition of 8%...
A new type of disease in cattle, dogs and humans has been defined as leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD). The disease has been characterised; its etiology, pathogenesis and diagnostic techniques, as applied to cattle, have been described. Principles of neutrophil migration in blood vessels have been presented, including the role of adhesion molecules.
