Anthropogenic eutrophication of lakes threatens their homeostasis and carries an increased risk of development of potentially pathogenic microorganisms. In this paper we show how eutrophication affects seasonal changes in the taxonomic structure of bacterioplankton and whether these changes are associated with the relative abundance of pathogenic b...
Climate change is one of the most severe threats for ecosystems worldwide. Lakes can be studied as indicators of climate change. The prokaryotic compartment of lakes is affected by climate change, and the metabolic processes of prokaryotes could both attenuate or exacerbate the negative impacts of climate change on the ecosystem. However, in contra...
Bacteriological methods for the identification of Yersinia enterocolitica are laborious and time-consuming. The aim of this study was to compare Y. enterocolitica DNA isolation from swabs without pre-enrichment on selective media with isolation preceded by warm and cold enrichment. The material for the study consisted of 150 rectal swabs taken from...
This corrects the article entitled “Presence and identification of Legionella and Aeromonas spp. in the Great Masurian Lakes system in the context of eutrophication" by the authors Karolina Grabowska, Aleksandra Bukowska, Tomasz Kaliński, Bartosz Kiersztyn, Waldemar Siuda, and Ryszard J. Chróst, published with DOI 10.4081/jlimnol.2019.1924. In the...
One of the greatest threats to water quality is accelerated eutrophication, resulting from human activity, like the high intensity of tourism, surface runoffs from fertilized fields, and municipal pollution. Water eutrophication manifests as excessive growth of phytoplankton caused by overabundant nitrogen, phosphorus, and other nutrient supply whi...
Growing anthropopressure over the last several decades has resulted in rapid progressive eutrophication of the Great Masurian Lakes (GML) system located in northeastern Poland. In our studies, we investigated whether there is a relationship between the occurrence of pathogenic bacteria: Legionella spp. and Aeromonas spp., not explored so far in the...
We present the results of an analysis of the 16S rRNA-based taxonomical structure of bacteria together with an analysis of carbon source utilization ability using EcoPlate (Biolog, USA) metabolic fingerprinting assessment against the backdrop of physicochemical parameters in fifteen interconnected lakes. The lakes exhibit a wide spectrum of trophic...
Aims:
The aim of this study was to isolate and identify potentially pathogenic strains of Y. enterocolitica in water samples collected from the upstream section of the Drwęca River in Poland.
Methods and results:
Thirty-nine water samples were collected. Strains were isolated, identified with the use of the API(®) 20E test kit (Biomerieux, Franc...
