动物的的变态

变态是动物学中一个较重要的专用名词,有关内容在中学课本也多处涉及到。现择要介绍一点动物变态的知识,供动物学教学参考。何谓动物的变态动物由于外在和内在的原因,个体形态发生变化,这叫变态。但动物学所讲的变态,是狭义地从发生学角度理解,即胚胎不直接转变为成体,而是在后期发育过程中,先形成形态、生理、生态方面特殊的幼体,行独立生活和生长,以后在某阶段发生急剧变化,转变为成体。青

远古的人们是怎样认识自己的起源的

人是从那里来的? 回答这个问题,你也许会说这有什么困难——人是从古猿变来的;甚至你还会进一步说,在这个从猿到人的转变过程中,劳动起着决定性的作用。然而这个现在看来比较明了的道理,恰是经历了多么漫长的认识过程才达到的呵!现在让我们首先来谈谈,远古的人们是怎样认识自己的起源的。最初的原始人可能还想不到自己的起源在人类诞生的最早时期,“最初的、从动物界分离出来的人,在一切本质方面是和动物本身一样不自由的”(恩格斯:《反杜林论》),这些最初的原始人为艰苦

Effects and statistical optimization of fermentation conditions on growth and poly (vinyl alcohol)-degrading enzyme production of Streptomyces venezuelae GY1

The effects of environmental conditions, including temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen, on growth and production of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-degrading enzymes of the newly-isolated strain Streptomyces venezuelae GY1 were investigated. The medium composition for strain GY1 was studied first by single factorial design and then optimized using a central composite design. PVA with high saponification is better for growth of, and PVA-degrading enzyme production by S. venezuelae GY1 compared with PVA with low saponification, in contrast with the characteristics of other bacteria producing PVA-degrading enzymes. The optimal temperature and initial pH for production of PVA-degrading enzyme by strain GY1 was 30°C and 7.0, respectively. The optimal medium composition for PVA-degrading enzyme production is: 1.01 g L^?1 of PVA1799, 0.307 g L^?1 of NaNO₃ and 0.512 g L^?1 of MgSO₄?7H₂O.

Glycogen Formation from Glycols and their Esters in the Livers of Chicks

Purification was conducted on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) degrading enzyme produced and secreted into the culture medium by Pseudomonas O–3 strain. The enzyme was found to separate into several fractions by ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration. Among these fractions, a fraction adsorbed to SP-Sephadex C–50 at pH 6.0 was purified to homogeneity by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Some properties of this purified enzyme were examined. Optimum pH and temperature were 9.0 and 40°C, respectively. The enzyme was stable up to 50°C and in a pH range between 5 and 11 at 5°C. The enzyme activity was inhibited by Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, EDTA, hydroxylamine and salicylaldoxime. In substrate specificity, this enzyme oxidized several kinds of modified PVA, as well as normal PVA, but did not oxidize other synthetic polymers, such as vinylon, polyacrylamide and polyvinyl acetate. The effect of oxygen on this enzyme was examined, and without oxygen, PVA was not broken down by this enzyme. The molecular weight of this enzyme was estimated by gel filtration on Sephadex G–100 to be approximately 26,000.     

In vitro maturation, fertilization and culture to blastocysts of bovine oocytes in protein-free media

This study examined the role of protein supplementation at the various steps of the in vitro production of bovine embryos derived from two different morphological categories of COC. The basic medium was TCM 199 and was supplemented with hormones during maturation in vitro and either estrous cow serum (ECS), bovine serum albumin (BSA) at various concentrations or polyvinyl-alcohol (PVA). Fertilization in vitro was carried out using frozen-thawed semen or one bull in Fert-talp containing heparin, hypotaurin and epinephrine and either 6 mg/ml BSA or 1 mg/ml PVA. In vitro culture up to the blastocyst stage was performed in TCM 199 supplemented with either ECS, BSA or PVA. The first experiment investigated the influence of different medium-supplements (ECS, BSA or PVA) on nuclear maturation and revealed no significant differences among treatment groups nor between categories of COC (63.9% to 74.9% and 48.9% to 77.0%, respectively). The time course of in vitro fertilization was elucidated in Experiment 2 in medium supplemented with either protein or PVA during maturation and fertilization. Penetration was not affected (70.9% to 79.3% penetration 12 h after onset of oocyte-sperm-co-incubation), but formation of pronuclei was decreased (P < 0.05) 12 and 19 h after onset of oocyte-sperm-co-incubation and was retarded in medium supplemented with PVA (12 h: 63.8 vs 21.4 %; 19 h: 57.5 vs 20.8 %, respectively) while cleavage was not affected. In Experiment 3, six treatment groups were formed in which the two different morphological categories of cumulus-oocyte-complexes (COC) were incubated in basic medium supplemented with 1) ECS during maturation and embryo culture and BSA during fertilization; 2) PVA during maturation and embryo culture, fertilization medium with PVA; 3) PVA during maturation and embryo culture, fertilization medium with BSA; 4) BSA (1 mg/ml) during maturation, fertilization and embryo culture; 5) BSA (6 mg/ml) during maturation, fertilization and embryo culture; and 6) BSA (10 mg/ml) during maturation, fertilization and embryo culture. The rates of cleavage and the development to morulae or blastocysts did not differ (P > 0.05) among treatment groups and between both categories of COC and were showing a high degree of variability (cleavage 54.0% to 65.1% and 41.3% to 55.7%, respectively; morulae 25.3% to 53.0% and 26.0% to 51.2%, respectively; blastocysts 5.4% to 24.7% and 0.6% to 20.3%, respectively). Parthenogenetic activation only rarely occurred in medium containing PVA throughout all steps of in vitro production of bovine embryos (Experiment 4) and led to early cleavage stages (8%), but no development to morula- or blastocyst-stages was observed. It is concluded that 1) formation of pronuclei was retarded in medium lacking protein-supplementation, indicating that BSA is required for regular fertilization in vitro and 2) under our experimental conditions, protein-supplementation is not necessary for maturation and development up to the blastocyst stage in vitro.     

Isolation and Culture Characterization of a New Polyvinyl Alcohol-Degrading Strain: Penicillium sp. WSH02-21

A fungal strain able to grow on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as sole carbon source was isolated from activated sludge of a textile factory. Morphological characteristics showed that this strain belonged to Penicillium sp., and, to our knowledge, this is the first report of PVA degradation by a strain of Penicillum sp. When 0.5% PVA was used as the carbon source in culture medium, it could be completely degraded after 12 days. This strain was found to produce and secrete an inducible PVA-degrading enzyme. High PVA concentration and oxygen transfer were favourable for PVA-degrading enzyme synthesis by Penicillium sp. cultured in shake-flasks. Moreover, Penicillum sp. cultured in PVA medium may spontaneously produce more catalase to decompose H₂O₂, a product of PVA oxidation by PVA oxidase, for protection of the cells from H₂O₂ damage. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Use of a protein-free medium for the in vitro development of sheep embryos]

The employment of protein-free medium for the culture of ovine embryos collected at the 1-2 cell stage from superovulated ewes was investigated. For this purpose sheep zygotes were randomly allocated in four treatment groups: T1) CZB medium + bovine serum albumin (BSA) on sheep oviductal monolayer (SOM), T2) CZB + polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) + SOM, T3) CZB + PVA + SOM supplemented with inositol (I) and serine (S), T4) TCM 199 + 10% fetal calf serum + SOM. Standard culture conditions were 2 ml of medium in 35 mm Petri dishes, under 5% CO2 in air at 39 degrees C. The percentages of morulae and blastocysts were recorded after 4 and 7 days of culture. After 4 days of culture there was no significant difference (P > 0.05) in the percentage of morulae between embryos cultured in T1 (86%), T2 (85%), T3 (88.8%), and T4 (87.5%). After 7 days the percentages of blastocysts were T1 (70%), T2 (50%), T3 (55.5%) and T4 (46.8%). These data suggest that a protein-free medium, CZB + PVA and CZB + PVA + I + S, can support ovine preimplantation embryo development in vitro; however CZB medium supplemented with BSA enhances development to blastocyst.

Effects of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) on the in vitro production of bovine embryos in protein-free media

The purpose of our experiments was to explore the effects of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-supplementation at the various steps of in vitro production of bovine embryos using protein-free media. Cumulus-oocyte-complexes (COC) were collected by slicing abattoir ovaries and then dividing the COC into 2 morphological categories. After maturation for 24 h in TCM-199 supplemented with hormones and either 20% estrous cow serum (ECS) or 1 mg/ml polyvinyl-alcohol (PVA), oocytes were co-incubated for 19 h with frozen/thawed spermatozoa from bull of proven fertility. The semen was diluted in Fert-Talp supplemented with heparin, hypotaurine and epinephrine and either 6 mg/ml bovine serum albumin (BSA) or 1 mg/ml PVA. Presumptive zygotes were transferred into embryo culture medium containing either 20% ECS or 1 mg/ml PVA for a total of 10 d. The PDGF was added at concentrations of 1, 10 or 100 ng/ml to the maturation medium (Experiment 1), fertilization medium (Experiment 2) or culture medium from Day 1 on (Experiment 3), respectively, or at 1 ng/ml PDGF to both the fertilization and culture medium from Day 3 on (Experiment 4), with each medium supplemented with PVA. Oocytes/embryos incubated in the absence of PDGF in media supplemented with either ECS or PVA served as controls. An average of 20 COC was incubated in 1 droplet under silicone oil, and each experiment contained 4 to 6 replicates. No significant differences were found among the various concentrations of PDGF, nor did PDGF-supplementation during maturation (Experiment 1) or embryo culture on Day 1 (Experiment 3) significantly affect development of oocytes/embryos (34.7 +/- 3.5 to 40.4 +/- 2.5% morulae, 11.9 +/- 2.4 to 18.8 +/- 2.5% blastocysts; and 23.2 +/- 2.3 to 27.5 +/- 3.4% morulae, 11.5 +/- 2.6 to 12.7 +/- 2.3% blastocysts, respectively; x +/- SEM). In the presence of 10 ng/ml PDGF in the fertilization medium development to morulae and blastocysts was similar to that of the ECS-group, and was higher (P < 0.05) than that of the PVA-control (ECS: 32.1 +/- 4.6 and 13.8 +/- 2.7%; PVA: 17.5 +/- 0.8 and 6.1 +/- 1.3%; PDGF: 30.6 +/- 3.0 and 14.0 +/- 2.2%, respectively). Development to morulae/blastocysts was increased, and was at the same level as in the ECS-group when the fertilization and/or embryo culture medium on Day 3 contained PDGF compared with the PVA-control group (morulae: ECS 25.3 +/- 4.4%, PVA 13.9 +/- 2.2% [P < 0.05], PDGF 16.7 +/- 3.2 to 19.1 +/- 1.1%; blastocysts: ECS 5.3 +/- 2.1%, PVA 5.0 +/- 1.7%, PDGF 7.1 +/- 1.6 to 9.1 +/- 1.7%, respectively). These results indicate that under our laboratory conditions PDGF can elevate low rates of development and the addition of PDGF to the fertilization medium enhances bovine preimplantation embryonic development. Thus, PDGF can be potentially an important factor in a completely defined medium to substitute the effects of serum.
