THORNE, PETER S., BARTLETT, KAREN H., PHIPPS, JOHN, KULHANKOVA, KATARINA
Objectives: Occupational exposures to endotoxin-contaminated, water-based metalworking fluids (MWFs) are thought to contribute to cases of respiratory illness. Before occupational exposure limits for...
Isolation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Other Bacterial Species from Ornamental Aquarium Plants
Trust, T. J., Bartlett, Karen H.
Ornamental aquarium plants were demonstrated to carry as many as 108 viable mesophilic bacteria per g. Gram-negative organisms predominated among the 19 genera of bacteria identified. Pseudomonas...
Novispirin G10-Induced Lung Toxicity in a Klebsiella pneumoniae Infection Model
Bartlett, Karen H., McCray, Paul B., Thorne, Peter S.
Mammalian cathelicidins are a class of innate antimicrobial peptides isolated from leukocytes and epithelial cells that aid host defense against bacterial infections. Synthetic analogs of...
Antibacterial Activity of Tropilidine and Tropone
Trust, T. J., Bartlett, Karen H.
The seven-membered ring compounds tropilidine and tropone were shown to be bacteriostatic and bactericidal for a wide range of bacterial species.
Kidd, Sarah E., Guo, Hong, Bartlett, Karen H., Xu, Jianping, Kronstad, James W.
Cryptococcus gattii has recently emerged as a pathogen of humans and animals in the temperate climate of Vancouver Island, British Columbia (B.C.). The majority (∼95%) of the isolates from the...
