  • Title: [Tolerance to H202 of Mycobacterium carotenum and its carotinoidless mutant].
    Author: Zobnina VP, Sakharova ZV, Chopiak AM, Borovskaia AA, Rabotnova IL.
    Journal: Mikrobiologiia; 1975; 44(2):294-7. PubMed ID: 1226142.
    Abstract:
    Mycobacterium carotenum is more tolerant to the action of hydrogen peroxide than its white, carotenoidless mutant. This elevated tolerance to H2O2 correlates with a higher content of DNA, RNA, and polysaccharides in the cells; it is not related to the content of proteins and lipids, or to the level of the catalase and peroxidase activity.
