sp. nov., isolated from freshwater.

A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, amylolytic bacterial strain, designated as bsSlp3-1, was isolated from the Slepian water system, a freshwater reservoir. Strain bsSlp3-1 was found to be aerobic, oxidase-positive and catalase-negative, grew at 5-37 °C (optimum, 28 °C), pH 5.0-9.

[Postoperative intussusception in children].

The authors present diagnosis and treatment of two children with postoperative intussusception. A 6-month baby with retroperitoneal teratoma developed clinical signs of intestinal obstruction in 2 days after surgery. The child underwent redo laparotomy, and ileocecal intussusception was found.

Fractionated Radiosurgical Treatment of Intracerebral Schwannoma: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Intracranial schwannomas (ICS) unrelated to the cranial nerves are extremely rare; around 70 cases have been reported worldwide. The available literature consists of case reports and small series that present variable characteristics distinguishing these lesions. Brain parenchyma schwannomas are typically benign tumors with currently unknown origins.

Complete Genome Sequence of Pseudomonas putida BS3701, a Promising Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon-Degrading Strain for Bioremediation Technologies.

The strain BS3701 was isolated from soil contaminated with coke by-product waste (Moscow Region, Russian Federation). It is capable of degrading crude oil and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The BS3701 genome consists of a 6,337,358-bp circular chromosome and two circular plasmids (pBS1141 with 107,388 bp and pBS1142 with 54,501 bp).
