  2. Pseudomonas aeruginosa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudomonas_aeruginosa

    P. aeruginosa is able to selectively inhibit various antibiotics from penetrating its outer membrane - and has high resistance to several antibiotics. According to the World Health Organization P. aeruginosa poses one of the greatest threats to humans in terms of antibiotic resistance. [3]

  3. Pyocyanase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyocyanase

    Pyocyanase was the first antibiotic drug to be used in hospitals. [citation needed] It is no longer used today.Rudolph Emmerich and Oscar Löw, two German physicians who were the first to make an effective medication from microbes, conducted experiments in the 1890s, roughly 30 years after Louis Pasteur showed that many diseases were caused by bacteria and nearly 40 years before the effective ...

  4. Pseudomonas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudomonas

    Around 51% of Pseudomonas bacteria found in dairy processing plants are P. fluorescens, with 69% of these isolates possessing proteases, lipases, and lecithinases which contribute to degradation of milk components and subsequent spoilage. [49] Other Pseudomonas species can possess any one of the proteases, lipases, or lecithinases, or none at ...

  5. Pseudomonas infection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudomonas_infection

    Pseudomonas infection refers to a disease caused by one of the species of the genus Pseudomonas. P. aeruginosa is a germ found in the environment and it is an opportunistic human pathogen most commonly infecting immunocompromised patients, such as those with cancer, diabetes, cystic fibrosis, [1] severe burns, AIDS, [2] or people who are very ...

  6. Pseudomonadaceae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudomonadaceae

    Studies also suggest the emergence of antibiotic resistance in P. aeruginosa. [5] In 2000, the complete genome of a Pseudomonas species was sequenced; more recently, the genomes of other species have been sequenced, including P. aeruginosa PAO1 (2000), P. putida KT2440 (2002), P. fluorescens Pf-5 (2005), P. fluorescens PfO-1, and P. entomophila ...

  7. Pseudomonadales - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudomonadales

    Pseudomonas aeruginosa can cause chronic opportunistic infections that have become increasingly apparent in immunocompromised patients and the ageing population of industrialised societies. The genome sequences of several pseudomonads have become available in recent years and researchers are beginning to use the data to make new discoveries ...

  8. Pseudomonadota - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudomonadota

    The type order is the Pseudomonadales, which include the genera Pseudomonas and the nitrogen-fixing Azotobacter, along with many others. Besides being a well-known pathogenic genus, Pseudomonas is also capable of biodegradation of certain materials, like cellulose. [36] The Hydrogenophilalia are thermophilic chemoheterotrophs and autotrophs. [39]

  9. Edward Lowbury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Lowbury

    The family name was anglicised to Lowbury at the start of World War 1. His father was a medical doctor and Edward’s middle names were chosen in honour of the surgeon Joseph Lister who had done so much to reduce post-operative infection. His son was to follow closely in Lister’s footsteps in the medical career that he eventually chose.
