Common Cutaneous Bacteria from the Eastern Red-Backed Salamander Can Inhibit Pathogenic Fungi

2007-09-05

Abstract excerpt

The objective of this study was to characterize the cutaneous antifungal bacterial flora of a plethodontid salamander, Plethodon cinereus, and to relate our results to aspects of amphibian ecology. Scanning electron micrographs of salamander skin indicated a wide distribution of bacteria across the skin. Polymerase Chain Reaction/Denaturant Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (PCR/DGGE) analyses of 16S rRNA gene fragment...
