Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Dose-Response of Zinc and Manganese on Siderophores ProductionMehri Ines, Khessairi Amel, Turki Yousra et al.Problem statement: This study was conducted to find and determine whether the siderophores of the four environmental Pseudomonas spp. isolates possess a sequestering activity towards essential transition metals (Zn and Mn) other than iron. Approach: Four fluorescent Pseudomonads isolated from various environments, were characterized analytically (Isoelectric focusing), biologically (pyoverdine-mediated uptake) and genetically (16S rDNA sequencing). By means of spectrophotometric measurements, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 10 Mar 2012 · 7,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of (E) 10-Hydroxy-8-octadecenoic Acid with Lyophilized Microbial CellsA. Bódalo, J. Bastida, M.F. Máximo et al.Lyophilized non-proliferating microbial cells of Pseudomonas sp. 42A2 showed their ability to catalyze the bioconversion of oleic acid into (E)-10-hydroxy-8-octadecenoic acid (MHOD) and (E)- 7,10-dihydroxy-8-octadecenoic acid (DHOD). The reaction conditions were optimized in order to produce the maximum amount of MHOD. At 30°C and using phosphate buffer (0.1 M and pH=8), an initial substrate concentration of 10 mg mL-1 and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,162 accessesView PDFCite
