Journal ArticleDOI
Oxalate-degrading Enterococcus faecalis.
TL;DR: This is the first report on the isolation of oxalate‐degrading facultative anaerobic bacteria from humans and it is shown that the E. faecalis required a poor nutritional environment and repeated subculturing to maintain their oxalating ability.
Journal ArticleDOI
A novel filamentous phage, fs-2, of Vibrio cholerae O139.
Masahide Ikema,Yasuko Honma +1 more
TL;DR: A novel filamentous bacteriophage, fs-2, was isolated from Vibrio cholerae O139 strain MDO14 and formed a turbid plaque when spotted on a lawn of the host organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Vibrio cholerae O139 Synonym Bengal Isolated from Patients with Cholera-Like Disease in Bangladesh
TL;DR: Vibrio cholerae O139 isolates had an overall similarity with V. cholera O1 El Tor, and showed resistance to both classical and El Tor‐specific phages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pili of Aeromonas hydrophila: purification, characterization, and biological role.
Yasuko Honma,Noboru Nakasone +1 more
TL;DR: Aeromonas hydrophila (Ae6) has 2 morphologically distinctive kinds of pili, which are not likely a colonization factor but probably play a role in the autoaggregation of the organisms.

TL;DR: In this paper, a collection of Vibrio cholerae O139 strains were analyzed to determine whether filamentous phages are produced in their culture supernatants, and whether any replicative form of DNA is detectable in cell lysates.
