Sensitivity of mixed populations of staphylococcus aureus and escherichia coli to mercurialsStaphylococcus aureus was found to have a higher resistance to merbromin and mercuric chloride in the presence of Escherichia coli....
Mercury and organomercurial resistances determined by plasmids in pseudomonas... These plasmids, in addition, conferred resistance to the organomercurials merbromin, p-hydroxymercuribenzoate, and fluorescein mercuric acetate....
Hypersensitivity to hg2+ and hyperbinding activity associated with cloned fragments of the mercurial resistance operon of plasmid nr1.... When both fragments were cloned together into a derivative of plasmid ColE1, the hybrid plasmid conferred properties indistinguishable from those of the parental plasmid, NR1: resistance to Hg2+ and to the organomercurials merbromin and fluoresceinmercuric acetate and the inducible synthesis of the enzyme mercuric reductase....
Comparison of three methods for detection of plasmodium oocysts in wild-caught mosquitoes... The oldest and simplest technique, the saline test, detected oocysts in 94 out of the 97 mosquitoes found to have oocysts by the more sensitive merbromin stain and PCR techniques....
