Genomic variation among populations of threatened coral: Acropora cervicornis

C. Drury, K. E. Dale, J. M. Panlilio, S. V. Miller, more

BMC Genomics > 2016 > 17 > 1 > 1-14

Background Acropora cervicornis, a threatened, keystone reef-building coral has undergone severe declines (>90 %) throughout the Caribbean. These declines could reduce genetic variation and thus hamper the species’ ability to adapt. Active restoration strategies are a common conservation approach to mitigate species' declines and require genetic data on surviving populations to efficiently...

Robotic versus laparoscopic colectomy

A. L. Rawlings, J. H. Woodland, R. K. Vegunta, D. L. Crawford

Surgical Endoscopy > 2007 > 21 > 10 > 1701-1708

Background This study compared the experience and cost of the DaVinci Robotic system and laparoscopy for colon resections. Methods For this study, 30 consecutive robotic and 27 consecutive laparoscopic colectomies were divided into right and sigmoid colectomies for analysis. Comparisons included indications for surgery, gender, age, body mass index (BMI), estimated blood loss (EBL), length of operation,...

Telerobotic surgery for right and sigmoid colectomies: 30 consecutive cases

A. L. Rawlings, J. H. Woodland, D. L. Crawford

Surgical Endoscopy > 2006 > 20 > 11 > 1713-1718

Background This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of using a robotic assistant for colon resections. This report describes the experience, advantages, and disadvantages of using the DaVinci system for a colectomy on the basis of 30 consecutive cases managed by a minimally invasive surgery fellowship–trained surgeon. Methods Data were prospectively collected on 30 consecutive colectomies performed...

In vitro and in vivo antagonism of pathogenic turfgrass fungi by Streptomyces hygroscopicus strains YCED9 and WYE53

K Chamberlain, D L Crawford

Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology > 1999 > 23 > 1 > 641-646

Disease prevention is a current practice used to minimize fungal diseases of turfgrasses in lawns and golf greens. Prevention is accomplished through fungicide applications, and by periodic thatch removal. During the development of a microbial biodethatch product utilizing the lignocellulose-degrading Streptomyces hygroscopicus strains YCED9 and WYE53, we demonstrated using in vitro plate antagonism...

Use of azo dye ligand chromatography for the partial purification of a novel extracellular peroxidase from Streptomyces viridosporus T7A

N. S. Burke, D. L. Crawford

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology > 1998 > 49 > 5 > 523-530

Abstract Crude peroxidase preparations from the lignocellulose-degrading actinomycete, Streptomyces viridosporus T7A, were shown to decolorize several azo dye isomers and showed a correlation of dye structure to degradability similar to that shown by fungal Mn-peroxidase, an enzyme not previously described in actinomycetes. Addition of the heme-peroxidase inhibitor KCN did not significantly change...

Antibiotics and enzymes produced by the biocontrol agent Streptomyces violaceusniger YCED-9

S R Trejo-Estrada, A Paszczynski, D L Crawford

Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology > 1998 > 21 > 1-2 > 81-90

Streptomyces violaceusniger strain YCED-9 is an antifungal biocontrol agent antagonistic to many different classes of plant pathogenic fungi. We discovered that strain YCED-9 produces three antimicrobial compounds with antifungal activity. These compounds were purified and identified, and included: AFA (Anti-Fusarium Activity), a fungicidal complex of polyene-like compounds similar to guanidylfungin...

Microbial transformation of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene

T A Lewis, M M Ederer, R L Crawford, D L Crawford

Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology > 1997 > 18 > 2-3 > 89-96

The manufacture and decommissioning of explosives has generated, and continues to generate, large quantities of waste material whose primary toxic and mutagenic component is 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT). The magnitude of this problem has motivated a great deal of research into treatment processes and environmental fate studies, including characterization of microbial transformations of TNT. This work...
