[Lysine decarboxylase in Pseudomonas aeruginosa].
The research of lysine, ornithine and arginine decarboxylases has been made for 50 strains of fluorescent Pseudomonas (P. aeruginosa, P. fluorescens, P. putida). By thin layer chromatography, all the strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the fifth of the strains of P. putida had lysine decarboxylase activity at alcaline pH (optimal pH 8) ; Pseudomonas fluorescens did not produce this decarboxylase. Arginine and ornithine decarboxylase are absent for all the strains of fluorescent Pseudomonas.
