Human alveolar lining fl uid from the elderly promotes Mycobacterium tuberculosis intracellular growth and translocation into the cytosol of alveolar epithelial cells

Vivek Vijay Thacker, Richa Mishra

The elderly population is highly susceptible to developing respiratory diseases, including tuberculosis, a devastating disease caused by the airborne pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( M.tb ) that kills one person every 18 seconds. Once M.tb reaches the ...

Frequent concomitant presence of Desulfitobacterium spp. and “Dehalococcoides” spp. in chloroethene-dechlorinating microbial communities

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Katia Szynalski

The presence of chloroethene dechlorination activity as well as several bacterial genera containing mainly organohalide respiring members was investigated in 34 environmental samples from 18 different sites. Cultures inoculated with these environmental sam ...
