[Degradation of a commercial surface-active agent, in the presence of a complementary source of carbon, by a selected bacterial colony in a marine environment].

Abstract:

:Bacterial communities that can degrade surfactants have been selected from coastal seawaters contaminated by urban sewages. Only the linear fraction of commercial anionic surfactants was quickly degraded, and a residual fraction representing 10% of the initial concentration always remained. The highest concentrations of surfactant tolerated by these communities depend on the nature of the co-substrate and on the degree of adaptation of the selected bacteria.

  • Host range and transfer efficiency of incompatibility group HI plasmids.

    abstract::HI plasmids are distinguished by their thermosensitive mode of conjugation (transfer efficiency is optimal at 22-30 degrees C) and their capacity to encode multiple antibiotic resistance. These traits have implicated HI plasmids as potential vectors in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance among pathogenic and in...
