cultural characteristics and virulence of strains of fusobacterium necrophorum isolated from the feet of cattle and sheep.sixty-one isolates of fusobacterium necrophorum were recovered for study. thirty-one were obtained from lesions of foot abscess in cattle (25) and sheep (6), 28 were from interdigital lesions in cattle and 2 were from the normal interdigital skin of cattle. the majority of isolates from lesions of foot abscess were virulent, belonged to biotype ab (fievez 1963), produced flat, irregular shaped, greyish colonies and haemolysis on blood agar, and grew as turbid filamentous suspensions in liquid me ...19853888165
a microaerophilic coccus in pyogenic infections of ruminants.pyogenic infections of cattle, sheep and goats were examined for the presence of a gram positive bacterium that has been designated "microaerophilic coccus" by other workers. the bacterium was found to be involved in a range of disease processes, including foot and soft tissue abscesses, mastitis, pericarditis and pyometra in cattle, joint and foot abscesses in sheep and foot abscesses in goats. the characteristic feature of the bacterium was its satellitic growth around colonies of other organi ...19853888166
the weak immunogenicity of fusobacterium necrophorum.three of four extreme methods of immunization completely failed to protect mice against challenge with the homologous strain of fusobacterium necrophorum. unsuccessful vaccines included (1) broth culture killed by mild heat and emulsified with freund's complete adjuvant, and (2) a homogenate of heavily infected mouse brains, inactivated by mild heat and given in two doses. also unsuccessful as a method of immunization was the production of a severe subcutaneous infection with f. necrophorum, fol ...19853894509

repetitive extragenic palindromic (rep) sequences in the escherichia coli gdha gene.deletions of the 3' flanking dna region of the glutamate dehydrogenase (gdh) structural gene from escherichia coli k-12, have been produced on a plasmid that carries the complete gdha gene. those deletions include part of the repetitive extragenic palindromic (rep) sequences proposed by stern et al. [cell 37 (1984) 1015-1026], as a novel and major feature of the bacterial genome. the effect of these deletions on the final gdh level in the cell, has been determined. a broader compilation, analysi ...19853902576
adherence of fusobacterium necrophorum to vero cells.the adherence of the anaerobic species fusobacterium necrophorum to the surface of vero cells was studied. adherence between the bacterium and the tissue culture cells was paralleled by the hemagglutinability of f. necrophorum. treatment of the bacterial cells with lactoalbumin hydrolysate or anti-f. necrophorum-hemagglutinin serum reduced the intensity of the attachment. the purified hemagglutinin bound to the membranes of vero cells. it lost its adherent property when mixed with the homologous ...19853904278
laminitis and interdigital dermatitis and heel horn erosion. a european perspective.laminitis is one of the most important claw disorders in dairy herds. nutrition, calving, burdening of the lateral claw of the rear feet, and hereditary susceptibility are all contributing factors. interdigital dermatitis in cattle may be a result of infection by bacteroides nodosus and fusobacterium necrophorum. if this infection becomes chronic, heel horn erosion is its consequence.19853907773
the sfia11 mutation prevents filamentation in a response to cell wall damage only in a reca+ genetic background.n-alpha-palmitoyl-l-lysyl-l-lysine dihydrochloride ethyl ester (pll) at sublethal doses causes filamentous growth of e. coli strains except sfia mutants, which divide normally in its presence. pll does not elicit the sos responses as judged by lambda prophage induction, an increase of reca protein synthesis or induction of the sfia operon in a sfia::lacz fusion strain. thus, it appears that filamentation caused by pll is not an sos function and might be the result of membrane damage by pll, whic ...19853911030
identification of common antigens in ribosome-rich extracts from fusobacterium necrophorum.ribosome-rich extracts (rre) were prepared by differential and ultracentrifugation from 25 bovine and 6 ovine isolates of fusobacterium necrophorum (fn) including both biotypes a and b. a pooled rabbit antiserum was prepared against whole-cell and sonicated whole-cell bacterins of f necrophorum isolate fn 3080, and a 2nd pooled rabbit antiserum was prepared against a rre of fn 3080. the rre of the 25 bovine isolates were tested against the fn 3080 whole-cell antiserum, using ouchterlony double-i ...19853918487

cyclopentenyl cytidine analogue. an inhibitor of cytidine triphosphate synthesis in human colon carcinoma cells.the mechanism of action of the cyclopentenyl analogue of cytidine, ccyd, was investigated in human colon carcinoma cell line ht-29. upon exposure of cells to 10(-6)m ccyd, cell viability was reduced to 20% of control, whereas cytocidal activity was not present after 2 hr of drug exposure. cell lethality was partially reversible by urd, cyd or dcyd at 10(-6)m ccyd, and fully reversible by these nucleosides at 2.5 x 10(-7)m ccyd. the incorporation of [14c]dthd and [3h]urd into dna and rna was inhi ...19854015694
fecal mutagenicity arising from ingestion of fried ground beef in the human.fried ground beef has been shown to contain mutagens, and the major mutagenic component has been identified as 2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (meiqx). mutagens in feces of 3 adult volunteers were fractionated by treatment of the feces with blue cotton followed by chromatography on a carboxymethyl cellulose column. the chromatographic fraction, corresponding to meiqx in terms of the position of elution, was examined for mutagenicity in s. typhimurium ta98 with metabolic activation. ...19854022023
technique for percutaneous pulmonary arterial catheterization in conscious dogs.a technique was developed to allow percutaneous placement and exchange of pulmonary arterial catheters in conscious dogs. seven dogs were catheterized weekly for 5 weeks, using a 10-gauge over-the-needle cannula. a no. 7 f flow-directed catheter was passed through the cannula to measure right heart and pulmonary arterial pressures and to calculate cardiac output. the flow-directed catheter was removed and replaced with an arteriographic catheter, and a pulmonary arteriogram was performed. placem ...19854026036
aggregation of platelets by fusobacterium necrophorum.broth cultures and washed cells of 13 of 24 bovine isolates of fusobacterium necrophorum aggregated human platelets in platelet-rich plasma. the cell-free culture fluid was inactive. bacteria stored at 4 degrees c in saline remained active for at least 3 months, but they did not release activity into the storage solution. aggregation typically began within 1 min after the addition of 10(3) bacteria to 10(3) platelets was complete within 5.5 min. assays for cytosolic lactic dehydrogenase revealed ...19854031037
