| antibacterial efficacy of rumex nepalensis spreng. roots. | the antibacterial property of rumex nepalensis spreng. was evaluated against some strains of bacteria. the methanol extract of the roots (tested at 200-1000 micro g/disc) showed significant concentration-dependent antibacterial activity. | 2003 | 12748999 |
| subunit interaction of monomeric alanine racemases from four shigella species in catalytic reaction. | bacterial alanine racemases are classified into two types of subunit structure (monomer and homodimer). to clarify the catalytic unit of monomeric alanine racemases, we examined the apparent molecular mass of the monomeric alanine racemases from shigella dysenteriae, shigella boydii, shigella flexneri, and shigella sonnei by gel filtration in the presence of the substrate and inhibitor. the enzymes were eluted on gel filtration as a monomer of about 39,000 da at low protein concentration and in ... | 2003 | 12725937 |
| [effect of irradiation on the shelf-life of aquatic products]. | the effect of irradiation at doses of 0-10 kgy on the shelf-life of aquatic products was determined. the results showed that irradiation could not prolong the shelf-life of aquatic products kept at 25 degrees c. while the aquatic products were kept at refrigerator (4 degrees c), the irradiation could prolong the shelf-life and effectively reduce the total aerobic plate count. irradiation could effectively reduce the number of coliform to less than 300/kg and eliminate shigella shigae, salmonella ... | 2000 | 12725095 |
| bidirectional concentration-dependent effects of tumor necrosis factor alpha in shigella dysenteriae-related seizures. | we have previously demonstrated that pretreatment of mice with shigella dysenteriae sonicate enhanced their susceptibility to pentylenetetrazole-induced seizures and that tumor necrosis factor alpha (tnf-alpha) was proconvulsive in this respect. the present study shows that tnf-alpha, at high concentrations, may also exert a suppressive effect on shigella-mediated seizures. this implies that high levels of tnf-alpha may play a protective role in neurologic complications of s. dysenteriae infecti ... | 2003 | 12654859 |
| synthesis of the pentasaccharide related to the repeating unit of the antigen from shigella dysenteriae type 4 in the form of its methyl ester 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl glycoside. | starting from d-mannose, d-glucose and l-fucose, the pentasaccharide derivative methyl 2,3,4-tri-o-benzyl-alpha-l-fucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-2-o-acetyl-4,6-o-benzylidene-alpha-d-mannopyranosyl-(1-->3)-2-o-acetyl-6-o-benzyl-4-o-(2,3,4-tri-o-benzyl-alpha-l-fucopyranosyl)-alpha-d-mannopyranosyl-(1-->4)-[2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl 2,3-di-o-benzyl-beta-d-glucopyranosid]uronate was synthesized. this compound with two alpha-mannopyranosyl units was transformed, via walden inversion and subsequent deprotection, ... | 2003 | 12644371 |
