Dynamics of bacterial community composition and activity during a mesocosm diatom bloom

Article Abstract:

Results show that there is no change in the bacterial population dynamics in mesocosm diatom bloom and any observed changes are systemic in nature and are only responses to the changes in the environmental conditions.

A simple, rapid method for demonstrating bacterial flagella

Article Abstract:

The fluorescent protein stain NanoOrange can be used to detect bacterial flagella and is as accurate as transmission electron microscopy. Its advantage over TEM is that it stains rapidly, does not require fixation or dehydration, and consequently can be used on live samples.

Antagonistic interactions among marine bacteria impede the proliferation of Vibrio cholerae

Article Abstract:

The antagonistic interactions between marine bacteria and Vibrio cholerae are studied to find out if it impedes the latter from colonizing and proliferating on organic-rich surfaces and that elevated water temperatures affect such interactions. The results indicate that bacterium-bacterium antagonism is a contributing mechanism in regulating the proliferation of Vibrio cholerae on marine particles.
