B. subtilis is one of the best studied Gram-positive bacteria and its genome encodes around 4100 genes. Computational analysis and systematic gene inactivation experiments were combined to identify ...

When B. subtilis is cultured under biofilm-supporting conditions, the synthesis of NO and CSF is increased in comparison with their production under planktonic growth conditions.

A Bacillus subtilis probiotic demonstrated the ability to wipe out most Staphylococcus aureus colonization without altering the gut microbiome, a placebo-controlled phase II study conducted in ...

Patients received either the probiotic treatment of 1:1 combined spray-dried B. coagulans MY01 and B. subtilis MY02 endospores in a mixture of 50 mg with 300 mg maltodextrin twice daily (n = 32) ...

B. subtilis, a spore-forming bacterium, was chosen as the contaminating microorganism because of its resistance to destruction by physical and chemical agents. An 18-h overnight culture was prepared ...

B. subtilis also has a feature that makes it very useful for this work: It forms spores. This feature handles one of the biggest problems with incorporating bacteria into materials: ...

Rosier said she thought it was because Bacillus subtilis like UD1022 produce a molecule known as surfactin, which acts as an antibiotic, enhancing the plant’s fungal resistance. To test this theory, ...

The survival of Bacillus subtilis spores in dicalcium phosphate, lactose, and corn starch and in their binary mixtures depends on the compressional properties of these materials and on parameters ...

They found 101 samples positive for Bacillus, primarily B. subtilis-- the type found mixed with other bacteria in many probiotic products.

We established a protocol to construct complete recombinant genomes from their small contiguous DNA pieces and obtained the genomes of mouse mitochondrion and rice chloroplast using a B. subtilis ...
