transhydrogenase activity in the marine bacterium beneckea natriegens.the marine bacterium, beneckea natriegens, which has previously been reported not to form transhydrogenase, has been shown to synthesize a soluble energy-independent transhydrogenase (nadph:nadp+ oxidoreductase, ec 1.6.1.1), though no energy-linked activity could be detected. the transhydrogenase is induced maximally in stationary phase cells and its formation is 70-90% repressed by raising the medium phosphate level from 0.33 to 3.3 mm. the enzyme is inhibited by arsenate, inorganic ortho- and ...197712829
adenylate energy charge during batch culture of beneckea natriegens.the value of the adenylate energy charge, i.e. ([atp] + 1/2[adp])/([atp] + [adp] + [amp]), during batch culture of beneckea natriegens remained relatively constant during the exponential and early stationary phases of the growth cycle. during exponential growth the intracellular atp content remained constant, the amount of atp in the culture increasing proportionally with growth; these conditions were unaltered during growth in the presence of added cyclic amp. on cessation of growth, significan ...197713148

beta thromboglobulin and glycosylated haemoglobin in diabetes mellitus.no correlation has been demonstrated between the elevated levels of plasma beta-thromboglobulin and glycosylated haemoglobin found in a group of 97 diabetic patients. the abnormality in diabetic platelets which is reflected by beta-thromboglobulin levels may not therefore be a direct result of poor metabolic control. the highest levels of beta-thromboglobulin were found in those patients with a raised blood urea. glycosylated haemoglobin levels correlated with prevailing blood glucose and with t ...200094458
[the heterogeneity of streptokinases].purified streptokinases of some strains of different types of strep. pyrogenes (group a) as well as streptokinases of a strain of group c or group g streptococci, resp., were studied in regard of their heterogeneity. differences of the streptokinases were found in their amino acid compositions and in isoelectric points. serological differences were detected by a quantitative precipitation reaction with fluorescein-coupled antistreptokinase antisera from the goat as well as by neutralization reac ...197994885

molar growth yields, respiration and cytochrome profiles of beneckea natriegens when grown under carbon limitation in a chemostat.the effect of growth rate on the physiology of beneckea natriegens was studied in chemostat culture. the molar growth yields (y) from glucose and oxygen, the specific rates of oxygen (qo2) and glucose (qg1c) consumption and the specific rate of co2 production (qco2) were linearly dependent on the growth rate over the dilution rate 0.17 h-1 to 0.60 h-1. further increase in the dilution rate resulted in a decrease in growth yield and respiration rate and these changes were coincident with increase ...1977304341
chloramphenicol bioassay.an accurate plate diffusion bioassay for chloramphenicol is described, in which the fast-replicating beneckea natriegens and 1.5% salt agar are used. zones of inhibition were well defined after 3 h, and the limit of sensitivity of the method was around 2 mug/ml. the concurrent presence of gentamicin did not influence the assay. the assay is simple to carry out and duplicate assays can be performed with as little as 100 mug of capillary blood.1979314271
homogeneous immunoglobulins in the serum of irradiated and bone marrow reconstituted mice: the role of thymus and spleen.the influence of thymectomy and splenectomy on the frequency and class distribution of homogeneous immunoglobulins (h-ig) in serum was studied in lethally irradiated (dba/2 x c57bl/rij)f1 mice reconstituted with syngeneic bone marrow. during four follow-up periods in the first 9 months after transplantation, the sham-operated controls and splenectomized animals developed transient h-ig in an average frequency of 14.2 and 15.7% respectively. there were no marked differences in the incidence of h- ...2004387578
statistical analysis of epidemiological data from a chromium chemical manufacturing plant.a statistical analysis was performed on reported bronchogenic carcinoma incidence in a group of chromium chemical manufacturing workers over the period 1929 to 1977. the purpose was to determine if post-1950 process improvements corresponded to favorable trends in morbidity. because the paucity of data on the population at risk prevented meaningful calculations of smr's, a recently developed method called "probability window analysis" was used to evaluate for statistically valid changes in the " ...2003430272

an ecological study of bacteriophages of vibrio natriegens.effects of temperature and anaerobic conditions on the replication of two bacteriophages, nt-1 and nt-6, of the estuarine bacterium vibrio natriegens were studied. reduction in temperature resulted in longer latent periods and reduced burst sizes for both phages. replication under anaerobic conditions resulted in longer latent periods; however, phage nt-6 had a reduced burst size, whereas phage nt-1 had an increased burst size, resulting in a rate of phage production nearly equal to that observe ...1978647480
physiology and ecology of bacteriophages of the marine bacterium beneckea natriegens: salinity.the effects of variation in ionic levels on the stability and replication of two bacteriophages (nt-1 and nt-6) host specific for the marine bacterium beneckea natriegens were examined. monovalent cations influenced the adsorption of the nt-1 but not the nt-6 phage; however, one-step growth studies showed that nacl was required for replication of both phage. the nacl optimum for nt-1 production was 0.25 m nacl, the same as the growth optimum for b. natriegens. however, the optimum for nt-6 produ ...1976938035
comparison of cell-mediated immune reactions in sympathetic and phacogenic ophthalmia with reactions in uveitis of other origin.cell-mediated immunity was studied in three cases of genuine sympathetic ophthalmia, i.e. in cases without lens involvement. in control experiments, lymphocyte transformation tests (uptake of 3h-thymidine) and leukocyte migration inhibition tests (soborg-bendixen) gave similar results for six normal persons, six patients with uveitis and two cases of phacogenic ophthalmia. in contrast, two cases of genuine sympathetic ophthamlia, namely those with recent enucleation, showed a significantly incre ...20051082540
molar growth yields, respiration and cytochrome patterns of beneckea natriegens when grown at different medium dissolved-oxygen tensions.the effect of medium dissolved-oxygen tension on the molar growth yield, respiration and cytochrome content of beneckea natriegens in chemostat culture (d 0-37 h-1) was examined. the molar growth yield (y), the specific rate of oxygen (qo2) and glucose consumption, and the specific rate of carbon dioxide evolution were independent of the dissolved-oxygen tension above a critical value (greatest than 2 mmhg). however, the potential respiration rate increased with reduction in the dissolved-oxygen ...19751194892

biofilm development in a membrane-aerated biofilm reactor: effect of flow velocity on performance.the effect of liquid flow velocity on biofilm development in a membrane-aerated biofilm reactor was investigated both by mathematical modeling and by experiment, using vibrio natriegens as a test organism and acetate as carbon substrate. it was shown that velocity influenced mass transfer in the diffusion boundary layer, the biomass detachment rate from the biofilm, and the maximum biofilm thickness attained. values of the overall mass transfer coefficient of a tracer through the diffusion bound ...200010620763
vibrio pelagius: differences of the type strain deposited at various culture collections.a critical evaluation of published and own taxonomic and phylogenetic studies on vibrio pelagius showed substantial diversity of strains received as type strains from various culture collections. the comparison of data based upon 16s rrna sequence analyses, earlier genomic dna-dna similarity studies as well as physiological investigations and the original description indicate that vibrio pelagius strains cect 4202t and atcc 25916t really represent the originally described type species whereas st ...200011108016
grazing characteristics and growth efficiencies at two different temperatures for three nanoflagellates fed with vibrio bacteria at three different concentrations.small inocula of one of the flagellates paraphysomonas imperforata, pteridomonas danica, and cafeteria roenbergensis were added to suspensions of the bacterium vibrio natriegens at each of three concentrations between 107 and 108 cells ml-1 and incubated at each of the temperatures 10 degrees c and 25 degrees c. samples were taken at intervals for counting the flagellates and bacteria to determine the timing of the maximum of flagellate numbers and the concentrations at that time. measurements o ...200111391464
effects of bacteria on the growth of an amoeba infecting the gills of turbot.we analysed the influence of various bacteria on the in vitro growth of trophozoites of a platyamoeba strain isolated from diseased gill tissues of cultured turbot. little or no growth was shown by amoebae cultured in the presence of (1) the turbot-pathogenic bacteria vibrio anguillarum, aeromonas salmonicida or streptococcus sp., (2) pasteurella piscicida or vibrio vulnificus (pathogenic for some fishes but not turbot), or (3) the non-pathogenic 'environmental' bacteria vibrio campbelli, vibrio ...200111411647
