| bacillus anthracis | A species of bacteria that causes anthrax in humans and animals. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| Bacillus anthracis toxin | A culture filtrate of Bacillus anthracis containing an exotoxin with at least three different antigenically distinct components: oedema factor, lethal factor, and protective antigen. Synonym: Bacillus anthracis toxin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bacillus brevis | A species found in soil, air, dust, milk, and cheese; some strains produce the antibiotic gramicidin or tyrocidin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacillus Calmette-Guerin vaccine | <drug> Live attenuated vaccine for tuberculosis. For groups and health care workers in high endemic areas. Not to be given to individuals with HIV infection. (15 Nov 1997) |
| Bacillus haemolyticus | The former name for Clostridium haemolyticum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bacillus histolyticus | The former name for Clostridium histolyticum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacillus licheniformis | <bacteria> Bacillus lichemiformis is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacterium which is used in the biotech industry to produce the protease enzyme subtilisin. (09 Oct 1997) |
| bacillus megaterium | A species of bacteria whose spores vary from round to elongate. It is a common soil saprophyte. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bacillus phages | Viruses whose host is bacillus. Frequently encountered bacillus phages include bacteriophage phi 29 and bacteriophage phi 105. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Bacillus piliformis | A species causing Tyzzer's disease in animals. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bacillus polymyxa | A species found in soil, water, milk, faeces, and decaying vegetables; some strains produce the antibiotic polymyxin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacillus popilliae | <bacteria> Bacillus popilliae is a Gram-positive bacterium which attacks only the Japanese beetle (Popillia japonica) and is therefore used to kill the beetles. When the larvae are infected, they turn white because of all the bacterial spores (endospores) that develop in the insects' haemolymph (blood equivalent). (09 Oct 1997) |

| Bacillus sphaericus | A species that is an insect pathogen and that has been associated with human and other mammalian infections, especially in compromised hosts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacillus stearothermophilus | A species of gram-positive bacteria found in soil, hot springs, arctic waters, ocean sediments, and spoiled food products. (12 Dec 1998) |
