Characterization and identification of Vagococcus fluvialis strains isolated from domestic animals. Strains of Vagococcus fluvialis, a species of Gram-positive catalase-negative cocci, related to the genera Enterococcus and Carnobacterium, were isolated from various lesions of pigs, from lesions and tonsils of cattle and cats and from tonsils of a horse. Most lesion strains were isolated in mixed culture from animals with disease conditions unrelated to coccal infection. Certain differences with the species description of Vagococcus fluvialis were found: only a proportion of the strains was motile; many strains gave positive reactions to Voges-Proskauer, alkaline phosphatase and leucine aryl...
Bacteriophages and indicator bacteria in human and animal faeces. In an attempt to explain the presence of F-specific (RNA) bacteriophages in waste-water, faecal material from humans and a variety of animals was examined. The phages were detected in appreciable numbers only in faeces from pigs, broiler chickens, sheep and calves but not from dogs, cows, horses and humans. Parallel examinations for somatic coliphages, thermotolerant coliforms, faecal streptococci and spores of sulphite-reducing clostridia revealed the consistent presence of these organisms in all types of samples, albeit in variable numbers. The number of F-specific bacteriophages was related...
Role of colon liquor in the cultivation of cellulolytic bacteria from the large intestine of the horse. This research article investigates the role of colon liquor – fluid from the colon of a horse – in cultivating cellulolytic bacteria, which break down cellulose. The researchers aim to […]
