Comparison of SEM and VPSEM imaging techniques with respect to Streptococcus mutans biofilm topography.

abstract：:The genome sequence of Roseovarius sp. strain 217 indicated that many pathway enzymes found in other organisms for the degradation of taurine are represented, but that a novel, apparently energy-dependent pathway is involved in the conversion of acetyl phosphate to acetyl CoA. Thus, an ABC transporter for taurine coul...
