Caracterização e avaliação do papel do gene wcbE de Burkholderia seminalis linhagem TC3.4.2R3 na interação microbiana. 2017. 149 f. Tese (Doutorado em Microbiologia) – Instituto de Ciências Biomédicas, Universidade de São Paulo, São Paulo, 2017. Burkholderia seminalis tem sido encontrada como um micro-organismo não patogênico, promotor de crescimento vegetal, nodulador de raízes, biorremediador, agente de biocontrole e, também, como organismo patogênico em algumas plantas e pacientes com fibrose cística. O gene wcbE codifica uma glicosiltransferase e pertence ao cluster wcb, que está relacionado à síntese de cápsula e interações ambientais. O objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar o papel do gene wcbE e da temperatura nas interações microbianas de B. seminalis TC3.4.2R3. A produção de biofilme, EPS e compostos antifúngicos foi maior a 28 ºC. -

NZMS Annual Conference 2017 20-23 November, AUT, Auckland PROGRAMME & ABSTRACTS MAJOR SPONSORS: WELCOME Welcome to the 2017 annual meeting of the New Zealand Microbiological Society. This year the theme of the NZ Microbiological Society (NZMS) conference is, “Our well-being and our microbes”. We are highlighting the dependence of our economy on maintaining and developing healthy microbial interactions while minimising diseases of concern for humans, livestock and plants. This conference covers the diverse field of microbiology and its disciplines including agricultural, environmental, food, medical and biotechnology sectors that rely on microbial knowledge, management and products. As our biggest city, Auckland and the surrounding regions has something for everyone, from hot springs to harbours, whale-watching to wine-tasting, mountains to museums and we look forward to hosting your stay here.

Clinical Isolates of Yersinia Enterocolitica in Finland 117 2013 117
Leila M. Sihvonen Leila Leila M. Sihvonen Clinical isolates of Yersinia enterocolitica in Finland Leila M. Sihvonen Identification and Epidemiology Clinical isolates of Yersinia enterocolitica in Finland Identification and Epidemiology Clinical isolates of Clinical isolates Yersinia enterocolitica is a foodborne bacterium that causes gastroenteritis and post-infectious complications, such as reactive arthritis, in humans. Y. enterocolitica species is divided into six biotypes, which differ in their ability to cause illness. The Y. enterocolitica incidence in Finland has been among the highest in the EU, but there has been little information on the occurrence of different Y. enterocolitica biotypes. enterocolitica Yersinia In this thesis Y. enterocolitica strains isolated from Finnish patients were characterised and the symptoms and sources of infections were analysed RESEARCH RESEARCH in a case-control study. The majority of clinical isolates of Y. enterocolitica were found to belong to biotype 1A, the status of which as a true pathogen is controversial. Furthermore, the study investigated the microbiological identification and molecular typing methods for Y. enterocolitica. The MLVA method was found to be appropriate for investigating foodborne outbreaks. in Finland This study adds to the understanding of epidemiology of Y. enterocolitica in Finland and emphasises the importance of correct identification of Yersinia strains in order to evaluate the clinical importance of the microbiological findings.
