Both bacteria can be isolated on media suitable for mycobacteria, such as LJ, as well as on common media, such as blood agar and Sabouraud dextrose agar plates. In addition, both isolates could be ...

Both X. citri strains were cultivated in NYG/NYG-agar medium (nitrogen-yeast-glycerol: 5 g/L of peptone, 3 g/L of yeast extract, 2% glycerol; for solid medium bacterial agar was added to 15 g/L) at ...

In the present study, the effects of the corrosive bacterial community and the biofilm on cooling water systems made from mild steel (MS) and brass (BR) were studied under field exposure conditions ...

We report a simple device that generates synchronized mechanical and electrical pressure waves for carrying out bacterial transformation. The mechanical pressure waves are produced by igniting a ...
