Effect of calcium on Pseudomonas aeruginasa and Bacillus cereus metabolites

Efeito do cálcio nos metabólitos de Pseudomonas aeruginasa e Bacillus cereus

Abstract

The effects of Calcium (Ca⁺²) on virulence and some parameters should be analyzed in this study. Pseudomonas aeruginosa Gram (-) and Bacillus cereus Gram (+) were used. Both bacteria are soil bacteria. In this study; the effect of Ca⁺² on protease, amylase, LasB elastolytic assay, H₂O₂, pyorubin and biofilm on metabolites of these bacteria were investigated during 24 hour time. In this study, the effect of Ca⁺² on the production of some secondary metabolites on P. aeruginosa and B. cereus was investigated and presented for the first time by us.
