Identification of Fatty Acids in Bacillus cereus08:41

Identification of Fatty Acids in Bacillus cereus

We propose a protocol to identify fatty acids without the need to purify them. It combines information on the retention times with the mass spectra of three types of fatty acid derivatives: fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs), 4,4-dimethyl oxazoline derivatives (DMOX), and 3-pyridylcarbinyl esters (picolinyl).

Investigating the Alleviating Effects of Bacillus cereus Administration on Colitis through Gut Microbiota Modulation

Here, we present a protocol to establish the antibiotic-induced pseudo-germ-free dextran sulfate sodium-induced colitis mouse model to investigate the role of gut microbiota in regulating the positive effects of Bacillus cereus on colitis.

Root-Mediated Endophytic Colonization of Beneficial Bacteria in Rice

Begin with rice seedlings pre-germinated under dark, aseptic conditions to ensure uniform sprouting.Transfer these seedlings to a flask containing a nutrient-rich, semi-solid medium pre-inoculated with a test bacterium.As the plant grows, the roots release chemotactic compounds into the surrounding medium.These compounds stimulate bacterial proliferation, leading to adhesion, multiplication, and colony formation on the root surface.As the roots develop, the bacteria enter the plant through...

Establishing Fungal Entomopathogens as Endophytes: Towards Endophytic Biological Control

This protocol demonstrates two inoculation methods to introduce the fungal entomopathogen Beauveria bassiana as an endophyte in the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), in preparation for subsequent evaluations of endophytic biological...

Use of a Battery of Chemical and Ecotoxicological Methods for the Assessment of the Efficacy of Wastewater Treatment Processes to Remove Estrogenic Potency

Endocrine Disrupting Compounds (EDC) pose a substantial risk to the aquatic environment. Municipal wastewater treatment plants are major contributors to the estrogenic potency of surface waters. The methodology provided in this paper allows for an assessment of the efficacy and suitability of wastewater treatment processes with respect to EDC...

Enhancing Salt Stress Tolerance in Tomato Plants Through Endophytic Bacterial Colonization

Endophytic bacteria colonize plant tissues and promote plant growth.To study their impact on tomato plant growth under salt stress, start with sterile seedlings showing developing leaves and roots.Immerse the roots of the experimental seedling in a suspension of endophytic bacteria; leave the control uninoculated.Transfer both groups into sterilized soil to prevent external microbial interference and incubate in a growth chamber.From the soil, the bacteria enter through transient root openings,...
