Acanthamoeba is a "Trojan horse" of the microbial world. The aim of this study was to identify the presence of Pseudomonas as an amoeba-resistant microorganism in 12 isolates of Acanthamoeba. All isolates showed the genus Pseudomonas spp. as amoeba-resistant microorganisms. Thus, one can see that the Acanthamoeba isolates studied are hosts of Pseudomonas.
棘阿米巴是微生物世界中的“特洛伊木马”。本研究的目的是在12株棘阿米巴中鉴定出作为抗阿米巴微生物的假单胞菌的存在。所有分离株均显示假单胞菌属为抗阿米巴微生物。因此,可以看出所研究的棘阿米巴分离株是假单胞菌的宿主。
