agarose beads as matrices for proteins in cytophotometric investigations of immunohistoperoxidase procedures;.quantitative aspects of direct immunohistoperoxidase procedures were studied in a model system consisting of agarose beads to which antigens or antibodies had been coupled. it could be proven that the final amount of reaction product resulting from the histoperoxidase reaction with 3,3-diaminobenzidine-tetra hcl in a bead was linearly related to the volume of the beads and to the staining time. this implies that protein-coupled agarose beads are a suitable model for the study of stoichiometric a ...19751168666
characterization of two steroidal ketones and two isoprenoid alcohols in dairy products.two steroidal ketones, delta-4-cholesten-3-one and delta-3,-5-cholestadiene-7-one, were isolated and identified for the first time in anhydrous milk fat and in nonfat dry milk. together with these, two isoprenoid alcohols, phytol and dihydrophytol, were identified in anhydrous milk fat. their identities were established on the basis of chromatographic and mass spectral data and confirmed by comparison with authentic materials.19751168685
erythema gyratum atrophicans transiens neonatale.an unknown dermatosis was observed in an infant girl. during the newborn period, she had a generalized, patchy, erythematous eruption of about 60 round erythematous patches on the trunk, thighs, head, labial mucosa, and palate. after a few weeks, the lesions became whitish, atrophic, and depressed, and they were surrounded by an erythematous and slightly infiltrated border, which was occasionally lobulated. histologically, the lesions demonstrated a thin epidermis overlying an edematous dermis. ...20051169042
factors influencing the survival of rat brain tumor cells after in vitro treatment with 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea.the shape of dose-response curves obtained for asynchronous, exponentially growing 9l rat brain tumor cells treated in vitro with 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea changed as a function of the drug exposure time. for short treatment times (less than 1 hr), the dose-response curves had shoulders, indicating that the cells may accumulate sublethal damage; however, after longer treatments (greater than 1 hr), little if any shoulder was apparent. the slope of the exponential portion of the dose-r ...19751169107

comparative study of the in vitro antibacterial activity of cefoxitin, cefuroxine, and cephaloridine.the in vitro antibacterial effects of cefoxitin, a semisynthetic cephamycin, cefuroxime, a new cephalosporin antibiotic, and cephaloridine were compared. with gram-positive bacteria, marked differences were found only in the effects against streptococcus faecalis, where cephaloridine and cefuroxime were superior to cefoxitin. with gram-negative aerobic bacteria, cefoxitin, which is known to be more resistant to beta-lactamases from gram-negative bacteria than any cephalosporin, was found to be m ...19761259406
stimulation of blastic transformation of rabbit lymphocytes by means of endotoxins of bacteroides fragilis.blastic transformation of lymphocytes from peripheral blood of rabbits immunized with formolized suspensions of bacteroides fragilis was obtained. stimulation was accomplished by means of endotoxins extracted from the strain with which the animals were immunized, and from a related serotype. blastic transformation was obtained 21 days after the start of immunization of the animals, and maximum response after 4-5 weeks. humoral response, checked by the passive hemagglutination test, preceded cell ...19761259541
the in vitro spectrum of the cephalosporins.the cephalosporins may currently be classified according to their relative susceptibility to beta-lactamases. cefoxitin, cefamandole, cefatrizine, and cephanone are relatively resistant to the gram-negative beta-lactamases, whereas cephalothin, cefamandole, and cefoxitin are resistant to staphylococcal beta-lactamase. although the inhibitory activity of cephalothin is representative of that of cephaloridine, cephalexin, cefazolin, cephapirin, cephacetrile, and cephradine, there are significant d ...19761263595
activity of cephazolin and other cephalosporins against bacteroides fragilis.the antibiotic sensitivity of 50 strains of bacteroides fragilis to four cephalosporin compounds, cephazolin, cephaloridine, cephradine and cephalexin is reported. cephazolin was found to be the most active, 94 per cent of strains being susceptible to blood concentrations achieved on standard dosage, comparative findings with cephaloridine and cephradine were about 50 per cent, and only 22 per cent of strains were inhibited by cephalexin. the importance of infections due to bacteroides is discus ...19761265472
antimicrobial susceptibility testing of anaerobic bacteria.antimicrobial therapy of anaerobic infections is usually predicted on the basis of known patterns of susceptibility of anaerobic bacteria to antimicrobial agents rather than on results of in vitro tests of individual isolates. routine susceptibility testing of anaerobic bacteria is not recommended, but there are instances of serious infection, i.e., endocarditis, or specific infecting organisms, e.g., bacteroides fragilis, when in vitro testing of the specific infecting organism is indicated. no ...19761266883
hyperbaric oxygen exposures for intrahepatic abscesses produced in mice by nonsporeforming anaerobic bacteria.hyperbaric oxygen exposures were evaluated for treatment of progressive liver abscesses produced by intraperitoneal injection of combined cultures of fusobacterium necrophorum plus either bacteroides fragilis subsp. fragilis or fusobacterium nucleatum in a mouse model. infected control and hyperbaric oxygen-exposed mice were autopsied 5 or 6 weeks after inoculation of bacteria and were assigned numerical pathology scores according to the number and size of abscesses present. seventeen daily 3-h ...19761267430
rosamicin: in vitro activity against anaerobes and comparison with erythromycin.the in vitro activity of rosamicin was determined against 231 strains of anaerobic bacteria and compared with the activity of erythromycin against the same strains. rosamicin and erythromycin had similar activity against strains of peptostreptococcus and gram-positive nonsporeforming bacilli. rosamicin was somewhat more active against strains of peptococcus, clostridium, and gram-negative anaerobes. all strains of bacteroides fragilis tested were inhibited by 4 mug of rosamicin or less per ml, w ...19761267432
inhibition of bacteroides fragilis on blood agar plates and reversal of inhibition by added hemin.bacteroides fragilis strains formed much smaller colonies on most types of blood agar plates than they did on the same media without blood. blood inhibited strains of b. fragilis subsp. distasonis the most and b. fragilis subsp. fragilis the least. the inhibition could be eliminated by adding hemin to the blood agar. the inhibitory component of the blood was inside the erythrocytes and appeared to be the hemin-free globin of hemoglobin.19761270596
