Cyanide, An Environmental Inhibitor of Predation by Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus HD100

Abstract

Department of Biological SciencesBALOs are predatory bacteria attacking specific Gram-negative prey bacteria and have been studied about both their life itself and their possibility to be used as alternatives to antibiotics. One of most widely used strain is a Bdellovibirio bacteriovorus HD100. In this study, environmental factors affecting on competition between prey and predatory bacteria, cyanide, is studied. The results show cyanide can inhibit predation by BALO and how the cyanide effect on predation.ope
