Figure Lengend Snippet: Paraburkholderia infection does not protect hosts from pathogenic Salmonella enterica (Se) or Staphylococcus aureus (Sa) bacteria. ( a ) Spore production of hosts when grown on food bacteria (F) or pathogenic Salmonella enterica (Se) or pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus (Sa). ( b ) Estimated effects (points) and 95% confidence intervals of Paraburkholderia infection (Pa, P. agricolaris ; Ph, P. hayleyella ), pathogen infection (Sa or Se) and co-infection (shown joined by *) on D. discoideum spore production. Spore production values were scaled by subtracting the mean and dividing by the standard deviation.

Article Snippet: To assess fitness effects associated with carriage of Paraburkholderia , we chose two pathogenic bacteria species known to infect D. discoideum intracellularly ( Staphylococcus aureus Rosenbach (Wichita) ATCC 29213, and Salmonella enterica ATCC 14028) [ , ].

Article Title: Photocatalytic Inactivation of Plant Pathogenic Bacteria Using TiO 2 Nanoparticles Prepared Hydrothermally

doi: 10.3390/nano10091730

Figure Lengend Snippet: Antibacterial activity of A310C and P25 TiO 2 photocatalysts against Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis , Allorhizobium vitis , Erwinia amylovora , and Pseudomonas syringae under UV-A irradiation. The concentration of aqueous TiO 2 dispersions was 0.5 mg/mL. Before UV-A irradiation, dispersions containing bacteria were kept in the dark for 15 min.

Article Snippet: For the pathogen inactivation study, four Gram-negative bacterium species such as the ATCC 49946 strain Erwinia amylovora (American Type Culture Collection, Manassas, VA, USA), the DSMZ 1049 strain Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis (DSMZ-German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures, Braunschweig, Germany), the DC3000 strain Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato and the Allorhizobium vitis isolates were used.

Article Title: LC-MS metabolomics profiling of Salvia aegyptiaca L. and S. lanigera Poir. with the antimicrobial properties of their extracts

doi: 10.1186/s12870-023-04341-5

Figure Lengend Snippet: The antimicrobial activities of different extracts of studied Salvia spp. against pathogenic strains. Data are expressed as diameter of inhibition zone (mm). E. extract: ethanol extract, W. extract: water extract, B. extract: benzene extract

Article Snippet: The antimicrobial activities of the ethanol, water and benzene extracts of the two studied species were tested against different pathogenic bacterial strains ( B. subtilis (ATCC 6633), P. aeruginosa (ATCC 90,274), E. coli (ATCC 8739) and S. aureus (ATCC 6538)) and fungal strains( C. albicans (ATCC 10,221) and M. reinelloids ) and compared with the standard antimicrobial drug (Gentamycin)which recorded as the most used antibiotic to treat several types of microbial infections [ ]; the results are shown in (Table ; Figs. and ).
