[morpho-physiological research on schizomycetes. morphogenesis and cytoarchitecture of the microbial colony. i: b. anthracis].the cytoarchitecture of b. anthracis can be easily studied in serial sections both at the light and at the electron microscope. the morphogenesis of the colony makes clear the peculiar structure of b. anthracis which seems essentially due to the chemical and physical characteristics of the cell envelopes and to the incomplete division of daughter cells. other factors such as surface tension, humidity, mechanical obstacles and regressive phenomena, seem to be active, in b. anthracis, only since t ...197558583

specific staining of bacilli by means of immuno-indian-ink method and immunofluorescent method.the possibilities for identification of b. anthracis are investigated by means of the immuno-indian-ink method (iiim) and the immunofluorescent method (ifm) in their direct and indirect modifications. the specifity of sera against noncapsulated cells of b. anthrasis increases by their adsorption with antigenically related strains of b. cereus as their vegetative cells and spores are killed beforehand with performic acid. repeated uses of the bacillus suspension for adsorption is possible by trea ...197987066

very low frequency and small intensity electromagnetic and magnetic fields as an oecological factor.the effect on microorganisms of electromagnetic and magnetic fields (emf, mf), the frequency and intensity of which were similar to natural ones, was studied. they were found to influence the physiology of bacteria. changes in the rate of proliferation of microbes, in their susceptibility to antibiotic the frequency of formation of recombinants and partial diploids during conjugation of colibacterium were observed during cultivation in these fields.1978112178

some hygienic problems in the production of meat and bone meal from slaughterhouse offal and animal carcasses.a study of uncut anthrax-infected slaughterhouse waste in the sterilizer of an animal destructor after the prescribed heating at 130 degrees c for 30 min showed that in 17 cases bacillus anthracis was able to survive. the determination of z-values for b. anthracis and b. stearothermophilus showed that when slaughterhouse waste is cut up into pieces of no more that 50 g weight the temperature at the centre may lie between 120 degrees c for 20 min and 130 degrees c for 10 min for destruction of sp ...1978115352
[disinfectant testing with bacillus spores (author's transl)].this paper deals with special conditions for testing the sporocidal effect of disinfectants. a method for the production of spore suspensions (fig. 1) and the negative influence of heating to its resistance against disinfectants was described (fig. 2). it was shown that spores of a non-virulent strain of bac. anthracis could be used for this procedure (fig. 3). in performing the suspension--and the germ-carrier test it was necessary to watch the effect of postinhibition and of inactivators. the ...1979116443

quantitative relationships of the harmful effect of ionizing radiation on natural resistance of the organism to various infectious agents. review of literature.on the basis of an analysis of data from the literature and our own experimental results, the conclusion can be drawn that there is inverse linear dependence between the dose of irradiation and natural resistance of the organism to infection with various infectious agents. with increasing doses of irradiation, the irradiated organism is exposed to greatest risk from the part of the agents of intestinal infections and representatives of normal microflora. these are followed by agents of various d ...1978381510
an epizootiologic study of anthrax in falls county, texas.in june and july, 1974, an anthrax epizootic in falls county, texas, resulted in the death of 236 animals (228 cattle, 5 horses, 2 mules, and 1 pig) on 48 premises. death rates were highest for horses (18.2%) and bulls (16.8%). the epizootic was apparently precipitated by drought, and infection appeared to be the result of ingesting intrinsically contaminated soil and grass. human illness was not associated with the epizootic.1977401803

[immunological properties of the preparations of the anti-anthrax antigen].the results of examination of immunological properties of the preparations of anthrax protective antigen on laboratory animals (guinea pigs) confirmed the efficacy of using the lactic-peptone medium for obtaining the anthrax protective antigen. incubation for 18 hours at 37 degrees c of the strain-producer (sti-1) and a double immunization scheme with the antigen obtained proved to be the most rational conditions for inducing the immunological response in the vaccinated laboratory animals. three ...1977413294

[combined vaccines in veterinary medicine in the developing countries].it is in the interest of developing countries to have combined vaccines in veterinary medicine, not so much because they reduce production costs, but rather because they increase convenience and efficacy concerning the logistics of prophylactic projects in the field, thus lowering the cost of these projects. their drawbacks are basically due to the biological compatibility of immunogens (possible immunosuppression by some viruses) and to the interaction of the various components when mixed, or w ...1978753663

inhibiting materials for gamma phage adsorption to the cell wall of bacillus anthracis, strain pasteur no. 2-h.cell wall preparations of bacillus anthracis, strain pasteur no. 2-h, were treated with heat or with acetone and ether. both of the treated cell walls preparations inactivated gamma phage. the centrifuged supernatant of the heat-treated cell walls was fractionated on sephadex g-200, and four fractions containing reducing sugars were obtained. the first fraction had the phage-inactivating activity. on the other hand, the fourth fraction had no phage-inactivating activity, but strongly inhibited p ...1975807761
[ultrastructure of bac. anthracis and bac. cereus].a study was made of the ultrastructure of bac. anthracis and bac. cereus (strains 1835 and 205). there were established definite morphological differences between the bacilli under study. the cell wall was much thicker in the causative agent of anthrax, it was permeated by tubules; the surface of the wall was covered by a thick layer of osmiophilic material. the spore membrane of bac. anthracis was multistratal in character; osmiophilic filaments were seen on the surface of exosporium. fungoid p ...1975808059
adenine nucleotide synthesis and growth rate of the adenyl succinate lyase mutant of bacillus anthracis.after mutations affecting the de novo adenine nucleotide synthesis in bacillus anthracis, the salvage pathway failed to ensure growth at the prototroph level. in sonicated suspensions of adenyl succinate lyase deficient b. anthracis mutant, in the presence of exogenous 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate (prpp), part of the labelled adenine was incorporated into adenine nucleotides. addition of prpp to cultures of adenyl succinate lyase and adenyl succinate synthetase mutants failed to promote grow ...1975808106
anthrax in the gambia: an epidemiological study.epidemiological data on 448 cases of human cutaneous anthrax from the gambia showed that this particular strain of anthrax bacillus causes widespread morbidity and some mortality with, at the same time, subclinical infection. analysis also showed that anthrax is not an occupationally related disease in the gambia.the possibility of human-to-human spread, affecting all age groups and both sexes, by means of a communal toilet article was also shown. the fact that the strain is a good toxin produce ...1975810213

the fine structure and the protein composition of gamma phage of bacillus anthracis.the fine structure of gamma phage of bacillus anthracis was studied by electron microscopy with a negative-staining technique. the phage has a hexagonal head and a long tail without a sheath. by electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels, the proteins of the phage particles are separate into 10 polypeptides with molecular weights ranging from 140 000 to 12 000.1975811348
radiological changes in inhalation anthrax. a report of radiological and pathological correlation in two cases.the radiological changes in two cases of inhalation anthrax are correlated with pathological findings. the earliest radiological sign was widening of the mediastinum, followed by prominent lung markings with peribronchial infiltration due to pulmonary oedema and haemorrhage. associated pleural effusions are common, and non-specific super-imposed pulmonary infiltration may also be present. inhalation anthrax must be considered in any case of mediastinal widening in a patient coming in contact wit ...1975811421
