lack of enzyme polymorphism in trypanosoma rangeli stocks from sylvatic and domiciliary transmission cycles in colombia.although trypanosoma rangeli is biologically and morphologically distinct from trypanosoma cruzi, these two hemoflagellates are epidemiologically linked. we report the results of enzyme electrophoretic studies of t. rangeli stocks isolated from sylvatic and domiciliary rhodnius prolixus, and infected humans inhabiting foci in which t. cruzi was sympatrically transmitted. t. rangeli stocks displayed electrophoretically detectable polymorphism for only a single enzyme, isocitrate dehydrogenase (ic ...19873812885
expression of the asba1, oxa-12, and asbm1 beta-lactamases in aeromonas jandaei aer 14 is coordinated by a two-component regulon.aeromonas jandaei aer 14 (formerly aeromonas sobria aer 14) expresses three inducible beta-lactamases, asba1, oxa-12 (asbb1), and asbm1. mutant strains that constitutively overexpress all three enzyme simultaneously, suggesting that they share a common regulatory pathway, have been isolated. detectable expression of the cloned genes of asba1 and oxa-12 in some escherichia coli k-12 laboratory strains is achieved only in the presence of a blp mutation. these mutations map to the cre operon at 0 m ...19979068648
purification and characterization of l-allo-threonine aldolase from aeromonas jandaei dk-39.l-allo-threonine aldolase (l-allo-threonine acetaldehyde-lyase), which exhibited specificity for l-allo-threonine but not for l-threonine, was purified from a cell-free extract of aeromonas jandaei dk-39. the purified enzyme catalyzed the aldol cleavage reaction of l-allo-threonine (k(m) = 1.45 mm, vmax = 45.2 mumol min-1 mg-1). the activity of the enzyme was inhibited by carbonyl reagents, which suggests that pyridoxal-5'-phosphate participates in the enzymatic reaction. the enzyme does not act ...19979228760
mechanism of the epsp synthase catalyzed reaction: evidence for the lack of a covalent carboxyvinyl intermediate in catalysis.in order to detect covalent reaction intermediates in the 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate (epsp) synthase reaction, we have investigated the interaction of epsp synthase with the reaction product epsp. an exchange of epsp-methylene protons could be demonstrated by incubating epsps with epsp in d2o. since trace amounts of contaminating pi would lead to reversal of epsps reaction and hence methylene proton exchange, we added pyruvate kinase, adp, mg++ and k+. under these conditions, any contami ...19882838023
death due to disruption of sternal fixation wire--a rare complication after open heart surgery through sternotomy: report of a case.following sternotomy for open heart surgery, a 57-year-old man had the sternum closed in the usual manner with six no.22 gauge stainless steel wire sutures. twenty-four days later, sternum disruption occurred with only one wire suture in place, 3 wire sutures cutting through the bone, and 2 wire sutures fractured. a lacerating injury over the anterior surface of the right ventricle was rendered by these 2 fractured wires followed by fatal outcome. to our knowledge, death induced by fractured wir ...19892794943
glutamate degradation in the ischemic dog heart: contribution to anaerobic energy production.the present study investigated the conversion of amino acids to succinate and the contribution of this pathway to anaerobic energy production during regional ischemia in the dog heart in situ. the relation between regional myocardial blood flow, estimated by the tracer microsphere technique, and myocardial contents of metabolites (glutamate, alanine, succinate, lactate) as well as their local arterio-venous differences (a-v) were determined. during 30 min of coronary artery occlusion, myocardial ...19892565982
aeromonas jandaei and aeromonas veronii dual infection of a human wound following aquatic exposure.exudate removed from an infection that developed below the left eye of a 10-year-old male following a previously inflicted wound after aquatic exposure was cultured and revealed two different aeromonas spp. further characterization showed that one strain was phenotypically identical to aeromonas veronii, while the other strain was confirmed by dna hybridization analysis to be aeromonas jandaei sp. nov. this is the first report of these more recently described aeromonads, thus far rarely reported ...19912037674
aeromonas jandaei (formerly genospecies dna group 9 a. sobria), a new sucrose-negative species isolated from clinical specimens.a large numerical taxonomy study conducted in 1988 of 165 mostly clinical aeromonas strains from diverse geographic sources produced a cluster (s = 84%, ssm) of four sucrose-negative strains that included the dna definition strain for dna group 9 a. sobria (cdc 0787-80). these four strains, together with five additional strains received in 1989, were subjected to dna-dna hybridization (hydroxyapatite, 32p, 60 and 75 degrees c), and all eight strains were closely related to the ninth labeled dna ...19912037673
[outcome of a sample of heroin addicts 2 years after the beginning of treatment (project emethyst)].the multicentric study for the evaluation of treatment and follow-up of narcotic addicts (emetyst project) recruited 311 heroin addicts who asked for treatment between march and july, 1985, and who have been followed for two years. the sample was obtained from 16 specialized outpatient drug-free clinics. 78% of patients were males, their mean age was 24 years, and 73% lived with their parents or relatives. during the last year, 53% had been working and 17% had been in jail, 61% had started treat ...19892654508

biometeorological triggers in childhood asthma.the relationship between child asthma admissions and biometeorological factors was investigated over a 16-month period. no relationship was found with many commonly suspected precipitants such as temperature, humidity and wind. there was however a strong association with rainfall (p much less than 0.001). associations occurred with low barometric pressure and counts of coloured basidiospores and green algae, but no significant relationship was found with grass pollen.20123416418
