title: Characterisation of a siderophore from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus.
abstract: The Gram-negative bacterium Acinetobacter calcoaceticus was examined for production of siderophores and iron-repressible outer membrane proteins following growth in iron-restricted media. The iron chelator, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid was identified in the culture supernatant by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS). A group of outer membrane proteins between 80 and 85 kDa were induced under iron restriction.
