Investigating the Bacterial Response to Ethylene Using an Ethylene-Releasing Compound
Source: Augimeri, R. V. et. al., Utilizing the Ethylene-releasing Compound, 2-Chloroethylphosphonic Acid, as a Tool to Study Ethylene Response in Bacteria. J. Vis. Exp. (2016)This video demonstrates the effect of ethylene generated by 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid (CEPA) on bacterial growth and cellulose production. Ethylene activates signaling pathways that stimulate cellulose synthesis, resulting in enhanced pellicle formation. These results highlight the bacterial response to ethylene.
