Clostridium difficile is primarily a nosocomial pathogen, causing thousands of cases of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea in the UK each year. In this study, we used a batch fermentation model of a C. difficile colonised system to evaluate the potentia

The growth of Clostridium tyrobutyricum in developing cheese leads to spoilage and cheese blowing. Bacteriophages or their specific lytic enzymes may provide a biological control method for eliminating such undesirable organisms without affecting oth

Heterologous production of the antilisterial bacteriocin pediocin PA-1 in lactococci is an attractive objective to increase the safety of dairy products. In a previous paper, we developed a system for the heterologous production of the bacteriocin pe

In vitro fermentations were carried out by using a model of the human colon to stimulate microbial activities of gut bacteria. The model consisted of a three-stage culture system. Bacterial populations were evaluated under the effect of three types o

Lactococcus lactis FI9078, a construct carrying a disruption of the ldh gene, converted approximately 90% of glucose into lactic acid, like the parental strain MG1363. This unexpected lactate dehydrogenase activity was purified, and ldhB was identifi

Summary Dps proteins play a major role in the protection of bacterial DNA from damage by reactive oxygen spe- cies. Previous studies have implicated the extended lysine-containing N-terminal regions of Dps subunits in DNA binding, but this part of th

The catabolism of ferulic acid in Pseudomonas fluorescens AN103 proceeds via vanillin, vanillic acid, and protocatechuic acid. The inactivation of the vanillin dehydrogenase of P. fluorescens AN103, which catalyzes the oxidation of vanillin to vanill
