Plants of T. pellucida are small and sometimes grow mixed with other organisms, thus single shoots were separated under the dissecting microscope over several days with each shoot checked individually for identity and for contaminants visible at 40× magnification.
Most anaerobic bacteria recovered from clinical infections are found mixed with other anaerobic organisms [ 35].
Evidence suggests that Oropharyngeal Candidiasis, found frequently in patients with immunodeficiency, present with mixed Candida organisms and are more difficult to treat than those solely due to C. albicans.
The extract was mixed with each test organism (in equal volume) containing approximately 1 × 105 cfu/mL suspended in suitable broth medium.
In a mixed sample, organisms with thick cell walls may yield relatively little DNA, leading to an under-representation of that organism in the final sequencing library [22].
In the present study, we immunized lambs with an inactivated suspension of 1 × 10 killed A. phagocytophilum organisms mixed with adjuvant (Montanide ISA 61VG; Seppic).
The utilization of the putative P. torridus MVD (put PtMVD) alone resulted in greater production titers, but even higher yields were obtained when put PtMVD was mixed with MVDs from other organisms (26, 28).
The same findings were confirmed by previous studies with mixed culture of organisms which revealed high degradative activity than with single cultures of microorganisms (Chigusa et al. 1996; Benka-coker and Ekundayo 1997 and Wakelin and Forster 1997).
In studies reporting CDI from patients harboring non-toxigenic strains, the cultured organisms were mixed with toxigenic stains and could not definitively be associated with disease [ 24, 25].
All green algal species are found within a single well-supported (97%) clade in the 4CL tree (mixed with red algae and secondarily photosynthetic organisms) and in two clades in the CCR tree and three clades in the CAD tree.
