English

Subject field(s)
  • Microbiology and Parasitology
  • Biochemistry
  • Medication
  • Special-Language Phraseology
CONT

Additional bacteria, for example Klebsiella and Escherichia coli, have developed the ability to resist antibiotics. These are extended-spectrum beta lactamase-producing bacteria(ESBL-producing bacteria), and strains of these bacteria which are resistant to quinolones(e. g. ciprofloxacin) ;a small proportion of these strains are multi-drug resistant.

OBS

The term "bacteria" is the plural form of "bacterium" and is more commonly used than the singular.

Record 6 2001-01-12

English

Subject field(s)
  • Biochemistry
CONT

Pullulanase... is more correctly named pullulan-6-glucanohydrolase, so called because it hydrolyzes the linear polysaccharide pullulan. Klebsiella pneumonia is the commercial source of pullulanase from which it is secreted during growth, although a portion of the enzyme appears to be cell-bound. Starch with a high amylopectin content is used as the substrate to induce the enzyme. Other sources include Bacillus spp and Aerobacter aerogenes.... The best known commercial application is in brewing.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Biochimie
CONT

Le Règlement sur les aliments et drogues autorise actuellement l'utilisation de l'enzyme pullulanase provenant de Bacillus acidopullulyticus [...] et de Bacillus licheniformis [...] à des concentrations conformes avec les bonnes pratiques industrielles dans la production d'édulcorants dérivés de l'amidon et d'une variété de produits de boulangerie. Santé Canada a reçu une demande visant l'utilisation de la pullulanase obtenue à partir d'un microorganisme de l'espèce Bacillus licheniformis modifié génétiquement [...]
