lysine decarboxylase

12/01/1988 - "Although statistical analysis revealed a significant relationship between virulence for fish and positive results for arabinose and sucrose fermentations, elastase, and hemolysis of human erythrocytes, only lysine decarboxylase showed a significant positive relationship with enterotoxigenicity. "
07/01/2001 - "cepacia complex by means of AFLP fingerprinting, whole-cell fatty acid analysis, biochemical tests (including ornithine and lysine decarboxylase activity, acidification of sucrose and beta-haemolysis) and a newly developed recA gene-based PCR assay. "
01/22/2001 - "Sixty-five Aeromonas spp. strains isolated in this survey were identified at species level and some were examined for haemolysis, Voges Proskauer reaction, lysine decarboxylase and sorbitol fermentation, tests which had been previously shown to correlate with production of enterotoxin/cytotoxin. "
02/01/1984 - "A strong correlation was noted between ability to produce enterotoxin and positive results in six characters: lysine decarboxylase and Voges-Proskauer reactions, production of gas from glucose, gluconate oxidation, xanthine hydrolysis, and hemolysis of human erythrocytes. "
08/01/2021 - "In contrast to the latter, the new strains display β-haemolysis and are β-glucuronidase, d-mannitol and sorbitol positive, but fail to produce lysine decarboxylase and trehalose. "

05/01/2008 - "In the absence of oral hygiene, the mol fraction of cadaverine to cadaverine plus lysine in saliva increased significantly (0.65 ± 0.13 vs. 0.39 ± 0.18, P < 0.001), indicating the presence of higher amount of bacterial lysine decarboxylase, that may contribute to periodontal diseases."
