Role of Methionine in Biosynthesis of Prodigiosin by Serratia marcescens

Qadri, S. M. Hussain, Williams, Robert P.

Methionine alone did not allow biosynthesis of prodigiosin (2-methyl-3-amyl-6-methoxyprodigiosene) in nonproliferating cells (NPC) of Serratia marcescens strain Nima. However, when methionine was...

Influence of Temperature of Incubation and Type of Growth Medium on Pigmentation in Serratia marcescens

Williams, Robert P., Gott, Cora L., Qadri, S. M. Hussain, Scott, Randolph H.

Maximal amounts of prodigiosin were synthesized in either minimal or complete medium after incubation of cultures at 27 C for 7 days. Biosynthesis of prodigiosin began earlier and the range of...

Induction of Pigmentation in Nonproliferating Cells of Serratia marcescens by Addition of Single Amino Acids

Williams, Robert P., Gott, Cora L., Qadri, S. M. Hussain

Addition of casein hydrolysate to suspensions of washed, nonpigmented, nonproliferating Serratia marcescens incubating at 27 C induced biosynthesis of prodigiosin. Four amino acids of casein...

Formic Hydrogenlyase and the Photoassimilation of Formate by a Strain of Rhodopseudomonas palustris

Qadri, S. M. Hussain, Hoare, D. S.

A photosynthetic bacterium isolated by enrichment on media containing formate as major source of cell carbon was identified as a strain of Rhodopseudomonas palustris. It grew on a wide range of...

Induction of Prodigiosin Biosynthesis after Shift-Down in Temperature of Nonproliferating Cells of Serratia marcescens

Qadri, S. M. Hussain, Williams, Robert P.

Nonpigmented bacteria obtained by growth of Serratia marcescens at 38 C synthesized prodigiosin at 25 C if certain individual amino acids were added to cultures of nonproliferating cells. In order of...

Cost Effectiveness of the Antibiotic Removal Device for Processing Blood Cultures

De Silva, Malkanthie I., Qadri, S.M. Hussain, Hood, E.

The antimicrobial removal device (ARD) blood culture system has been reported to increase the sensitivity of isolation of pathogenic microorganisms in bacteremic patients who are already on...

Differences in Antimicrobial Susceptibilities of Clinical Isolates in Saudi Arabia and the United States

Qadri, S.M. Hussain, Ostrawski, S., Johnson, S., Flournoy, D.J.

In vitro antimicrobial susceptibilities of 3,530 clinical isolates at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center (KFSH), in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, were compared with those of 11,041 bacterial...

Comparison of Antinuclear Antibody and Rheumatoid Arthritis Factor Test Results Between Two Nearby Hospitals

Flournoy, D. J., Qadri, S. M. Hussain, Downard, Donna R., Woolridge, Lorraine

Antinuclear antibody and rheumatoid arthritis factor test results were compared between two nearby hospitals of approximately the same size but with different patient populations. There were dramatic...

Polymicrobial Septicemia Due to Shigella Flexneri and Pseudomonas Aeruginosa: First Report

Qadri, S. M. Hussain, Khalil, Salim H.

An invasion of the bloodstream by members of the genus Shigella is extremely rare. When it does occur, the etiologic agent is usually a single organism. A report of the first case of Shigella...
