extracellular hemolysins of aerobic sporogenic bacilli.forty-five strains, representing 18 species of the genus bacillus, were surveyed for production of hemolysin against rabbit erythrocytes. broth cultures of b. cereus, b. alvei, and b. laterosporus contained lysins that closely resembled streptolysin o. b. subtilis and a single strain of b. cereus may produce lysins having characteristics different from those of streptolysin o.19674960930
survival of microorganisms in a simulated martian environment. ii. moisture and oxygen requirements for germination of bacillus cereus and bacillus subtilis var. niger spores.the effects of moisture and oxygen concentration on germination of bacillus cereus and b. subtilis var. niger spores were investigated in a simulated martian environment. less moisture was required for germination than for vegetative growth of both organisms. a daily freeze-thaw cycle lowered moisture requirements for spore germination and vegetative growth of both organisms, as compared with a constant 35 c environment. oxygen had a synergistic effect by lowing the moisture requirements for veg ...19674961769
conversion of ddt to ddd by pathogenic and saprophytic bacteria associated with plants.of 27 microorganisms examined, 23 plant pathogenic and saprophytic bacterial species were found to convert p,p' ddt to p,p' ddd under anaerobic conditions. the range of conversion of ddt (10 micrograms per milliliter) during an incubation of 14 days was from a trace to over 5 micrograms per milliliter, with the majority of the bacteria showing the greatest activity during the final 7-day period. there is evidence that metabolites of ddt other than ddd are also produced.19674961613
ordered synthesis of proteins during outgrowth of spores of bacillus cereus.the onset of macromolecular synthesis in activated spores of bacillus cereus occurs under conditions in which the amino acids and nucleotides to be used for building proteins and nucleic acids must be derived only from stored pools and turnover of macromolecules of the spore. upon addition of the factors required to initiate germination, (14)c-uracil is incorporated with a lag of 30 to 60 sec; (14)c-amino acids, with a lag of 3 to 4 min. the progression of protein synthesis during germination ha ...19674961412

enumeration of bacillus cereus in foods.for the enumeration of vegetative cells and spores of bacillus cereus in foods, a mannitol-egg yolk-phenol red-agar has been developed which exploits the failure of b. cereus to dissimilate mannitol, and the ability of most strains to produce phospholipase c. when a high degree of selectivity was required, polymyxin b sulfate in a concentration of 10 ppm appeared to be the most effective selective additive. useful characteristics for the identification of presumptive isolates of b. cereus were f ...19674291956
lethal toxin of bacillus cereus. i. relationships and nature of toxin, hemolysin, and phospholipase.bacillus cereus phospholipase was characterized as a phospholipase c by the analysis of lecithin degradation products by thin-layer and paper chromatography. methanol in the growth menstruum inhibited completely the synthesis of phospholipase c, whereas the synthesis of lethal toxin and hemolysin were only partially inhibited. dialysis of preformed b. cereus products against ethyl alcohol and methanol did not inactivate hemolytic, phospholipase c, or lethal activity. the hemolytic and lethal act ...19674292311

effect of reduced barometric pressure on water availability related to microbial growth.data obtained from mariner iv indicate that the barometric pressure on mars is considerably lower than previously estimated. current estimates from mariner iv indicate a range from 4 to 7 mb and by near infrared spectroscopy 33-56 mb. inasmuch as the pressure has a marked influence on availability of water, this should affect the existence of martian life. at the maximum temperatures recorded on mars, namely 25 degrees c, a barometric pressure of 30 mb is required for the retention of free water ...196711973845
exobiology and the effect of physical factors on micro-organisms.a study of the action of different physical factors on micro-organisms is necessary for a further development of exobiology. the action of temperature on crystalline preparations of catalase and peroxidase was studied by means of oscillographic polarography. a determination of the height of polarographic waves at the decrease of temperature from 20 degrees c to 0 degrees c has shown that structural elements of the peroxidase molecule connected with the enzymatic activity are more stable with the ...196711973848
[study on serum and urine concentrations of erythromycin succinate of pyrrolidine-methyl-tetracycline].the serum and urine antibiotic levels in a group of 25 patients were determined after a single administration of a new antibiotic salt: erythromycin succinate of pyrrolidine-methyl-tetracycline. some subjects were treated orally and other intramuscularly. the results obtained showed that this drug gives, both orally and intramuscularly, efficient serum and urine concentrations of tetracycline and erythromycin.196817340794
initiation of bacterial spore germination.to investigate the problem of initiation in bacterial spore germination, we isolated, from extracts of dormant spores of bacillus cereus strain t and b. licheniformis, a protein that initiated spore germination when added to a suspension of heat-activated spores. the optimal conditions for initiatory activity of this protein (the initiator) were 30 c in 0.01 to 0.04 m nacl and 0.01 m tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (ph 8.5). the initiator was inhibited by phosphate but required two co-factors, l ...19684296513
