A rod-shaped, Gram-stain-negative, strictly anaerobic, catalase-negative and endospore-forming bacterial strain CSC2 was isolated from corn silage preserved in Tochigi, Japan. The strain CSC2 grew at 15-40 °C, at pH 5.0-7.7 and with up to 0.5 % (w/v) NaCl. The main cellular fatty acids were C, C and C dimethyl acetal. The cellular polar lipids detected were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidic acid, lysophosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, lysophosphatidylcholine and two unidentified polar lipids. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene showed that strain CSC2 was a member of the genus and closely related to DSM 57272 (95.6 % gene sequence similarity) and ATCC 19400 (95.3 %). The genomic DNA G+C content of strain CSC2 was 31.1 mol% (whole genome analysis). The average nucleotide identity based on blast and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain CSC2 and the type strains of phylogenetically related species were below 71 and 24 %, respectively. On the basis of the genotypic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, it is proposed to designate strain CSC2 as representing sp. nov. The type strain is CSC2 (=MAFF212476=JCM 33766=DSM 111242).

Two Gram-stain-negative, terminal endospore-forming, rod-shaped and aerotolerant bacterial strains designated D1-1 and B3 were isolated from soil samples of an organic paddy in Japan. Strain D1-1 grew at 15-37 °C, pH 5.0-7.

Background: Multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality globally. The present study was designed to investigate the in vitro antibacterial activities of crude methanol extract and constituents isolated by Column Chromatography (CC) from Cassia sieberiana bark (CSB) against ten MDR Gram-negative bacteria, as well as the mechanisms of action of the most active sample.
Methods: The antibacterial activity of the tested samples (extract, the fractions and their compounds isolated by CC and the structures obtained by exploiting H and C Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra) in the presence and absence of an efflux pumps inhibitor, phenylalanine-arginine β-naphthylamide (PAβN), was evaluated using the micro-dilution method.

Winemaking is a highly industrialized process and a number of commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains are used around the world, neglecting the diversity of native yeast strains that are responsible for the production of wines peculiar flavours. The aim of this study was to in-depth establish the S. cerevisiae volatile metabolome and to assess inter-strains variability.

In order to screen out an optimum complex for reducing the nephrotoxicity of cisplatin (CDDP), we investigated and compared CDDP-chondroitin sulfate complexes to CDDP in terms of in vivo pharmacokinetics and in vitro cytotoxicity. The polymeric carriers used in the study were chondroitin sulfate A (CSA, 4-sulfate) with mean molecular weights of 10 kDa (CSA-1) and 23 kDa (CSA-2), and chondroitin sulfate C (CSC, 6-sulfate) with mean molecular weights of 8 kDa (CSC-1) and 25 kDa (CSC-2). The resultant complexes (CDDP-CSA-1, CDDP-CSA-2, CDDP-CSC-1 and CDDP-CSC-2) were administered intravenously to rats.
