The effect of the anions, phosphate and sulphate, on normal rates of excretion of potassium in dogs.

Small doses of (NH4)2HPO4 or KH2PO4 by stomach tube caused increase in plasma PO4 and PO4 excretion. Above a threshold of 0-8 mmol. 1(-1), increase of plasma PO4 by 0-5 mmol. 1(-1) caused PO4 excretion to increase by about 35 mumol. min.-1 After KH2PO4 this relationship was not altered by the concurrent increases in plasma K and K excretion. After doses of (NH4)2SO4 or K2SO4, excretion of SO4 was similarly related to plasma SO4 and was independent of plasma K and K excretion. An effect of PO4 on K excretion was observed after doses of (NH4)2HPO4, when increased excretion of PO4 was accompanied by increased excretion of K without change in plasma K. There was also increased excretion of NH4 and a small increase in Na excretion. The changes were similar to those produced by (NH4)2SO4 [O'Connor and Summerill, 1976]. KH2PO4 and K2SO4 produced increase in plasma K and increased excretion of K not significantly different from the changes produced by KCl or KHCO3 [Baylis and O'Connor, 1976]. After KH2PO2 or K2SO4, the urinary anion was PO4 or SO4, instead of Cl and HCO3. Any effect of anions on K excretion was much less than the effect of increase in plasma K. At low rates of excretion of K, increased urinary excretion of impermeant anion can determine increased excretion of K. However, the effect of anion is small in comparison with the effect of increase in plasma K.

Degradation of polyesters by a novel marine Nocardiopsis aegyptia sp. nov.: application of Plackett-Burman experimental design for the improvement of PHB depolymerase activity

This is the first report on the degradation of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), and its copolymers poly(3-hydroxyvalerate) P(3HB-co-10-20% HV) by Nocardiopsis aegyptia, a new species isolated from marine seashore sediments. The strain excreted an extracellular PHB depolymerase and grew efficiently on PHB or its copolymers as the sole carbon sources. The degradation activity was detectable by the formation of a transparent clearing zone around the colony on an agar Petri plate after 25 days, or a clearing depth under the colony in test tubes within 3 weeks. The previous techniques proved that the bacterium was able to assimilate the monomeric components of the shorter alkyl groups of the polymers. Nocardiopsis aegyptia hydrolyzed copolymers 10-20% PHBV more rapidly than the homopolymer PHB. The bacterial degradation of the naturally occurring sheets of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate), and its copolymer poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The samples were degraded at the surface and proceeded to the inner part of the materials. Clear morphological alterations of the polymers were noticed, indicating the degradative capability of the bacterium. Plackett-Burman statistical experimental design has been employed to optimize culture conditions for maximal enzyme activity. The main factors that had significant positive effects on PHB depolymerase activity of Nocardiopsis aegyptia were sodium gluconate, volume of medium/flask and age of inoculum. On the other hand, MgSO4.7H2O, KH2PO4, K2HPO4 and NH4NO3 exhibited negative effects. Under optimized culture conditions, the highest activity (0.664 U/mg protein) was achieved in a medium predicted to be near optimum containing (in g/L): PHB, 0.5; C6H11O7Na, 7.5; MgSO4.7H2O, 0.35; K2HPO4, 0.35; NH4NO3, 0.5; KH2PO4, 0.35; malt extract, 0.5 and prepared with 50% seawater. The medium was inoculated with 1% (v/v) spore suspension of 7 days old culture. Complete clarity of the medium was achieved after 3 days at 30 degrees C.     

A new medium for the enumeration and subculture of bacteria from potable water.

Plate count agar is presently the recommended medium for the standard bacterial plate count (35 degrees C, 48-h incubation) of water and wastewater. However, plate count agar does not permit the growth of many bacteria that may be present in treated potable water supplies. A new medium was developed for use in heterotrophic plate count analyses and for subculture of bacteria isolated from potable water samples. The new medium, designated R2A, contains 0.5 g of yeast extract, 0.5 g of Difco Proteose Peptone no. 3 (Difco Laboratories), 0.5 g of Casamino Acids (Difco), 0.5 g of glucose, 0.5 g of soluble starch, 0.3 g of K2HPO4, 0.05 g of MgSO4 X 7H2O, 0.3 g of sodium pyruvate, and 15 g of agar per liter of laboratory quality water. Adjust the pH to 7.2 with crystalline K2HPO4 or KH2PO4 and sterilize at 121 degrees C for 15 min. Results from parallel studies with spread, membrane filter, and pour plate procedures showed that R2A medium yielded significantly higher bacterial counts than did plate count agar. Studies of the effect of incubation temperature showed that the magnitude of the count was inversely proportional to the incubation temperature. Longer incubation time, up to 14 days, yielded higher counts and increased detection of pigmented bacteria. Maximal bacterial counts were obtained after incubation at 20 degrees C for 14 days. As a tool to monitor heterotrophic bacterial populations in water treatment processes and in treated distribution water, R2A spread or membrane filter plates incubated at 28 degrees C for 5 to 7 days is recommended.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Cystite formation of Arthrobacter ureafaciens NRIC 0157(T)

The cystite formation of Arthrobacter ureafaciens NRIC 0157(T) was studied by the use of a newly designed CT medium composed of 2.0% D-glucose, 0.28% NH(4)H(2)PO(4), 0.136% K(2)HPO(4) 0.136% KH(2)PO(4), 0.0005% MgSO(4).7H(2)O, and 0.0007% CaCl(2).2H(2)O. Cystites are drumstick-shaped and oval cells and are larger than vegetative cells. Cystites are Gram-negative, whereas vegetative cells are Gram-positive by the KOH reaction. The concentration and ratio of K(+) and Mg(2+) in CT medium mainly affected the cystite formation. Cystites are considered aberrant forms produced by nutritional imbalance.     

Enhanced antibiotic activity of Xenorhabdus nematophila by medium optimization

Nutrition had highly influence on the antibiotic production by Xenorhabdus nematophila YL001. Glucose and peptone were identified as the best carbon and nitrogen sources that significantly affected antibiotic production using one-factor-at-a-time approach. Response surface methodology was applied to optimize the medium constituents (Glucose, peptone and minerals) for antibiotic production by X. nematophila YL001. Higher antibiotic activity (328.9 U/ml) was obtained after optimizing medium components. The optimal levels of medium components were (g/l): glucose 6.13, peptone 21.29, MgSO(4).7H(2)O 1.50, (NH(4))(2)SO(4) 2.46, KH(2)PO(4) 0.86, K(2)HPO(4) 1.11 and Na(2)SO(4) 1.72. An overall 16% and 35% increase in antibiotic activity were obtained as compared with mean observed response (283.7U/ml) at zero level of all variables and YSG medium.     

Application of statistical experimental designs for the optimization of medium constituents for the production of citric acid from pineapple waste

Statistical experimental designs were applied for the optimization of medium constituents for citric acid production by Yarrowia lipolytica NCIM 3589 in solid state fermentation (SSF) using pineapple waste as the sole substrate. Using Plackett-Burman design, yeast extract, moisture content of the substrate, KH(2)PO(4) and Na(2)HPO(4) were identified as significant variables which highly influenced citric acid production and these variables were subsequently optimized using a central composite design (CCD). The optimum conditions were found to be yeast extract 0.34 (%w/w), moisture content of the substrate 70.71 (%), KH(2)PO(4) 0.64 (%w/w) and Na(2)HPO(4) 0.69 (%w/w). Citric acid production at these optimum conditions was 202.35 g/kg ds (g citric acid produced/kg of dried pineapple waste as substrate).     

Greater effect of dietary potassium tripolyphosphate than of potassium dihydrogenphosphate on the nephrocalcinosis and proximal tubular function in female rats from the intake of a high-phosphorus diet

We examined whether a difference in potassium dihydrogenphosphate (KH2PO4) and potassium tripolyphosphate (K5P3O10) as dietary phosphorus sources could differentially effect the nephrocalcinosis and proximal tubular function in female rats. Rats were fed on a diet containing KH2PO4 or K5P3O10, at the normal phosphorus level (normal phosphorus diet) or at a high phosphorus level (high-phosphorus diet) for 21 d. Nephrocalcinosis, as confirmed by a histological examination, was apparent in all rats fed on the high-phosphorus diet, and this condition was more severe in those rats fed on K5P3O10 than in those fed on KH2PO4. As indicators of the proximal tubular function, the N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase activity in urine and the urinary beta2-microglobulin excretion were significantly increased in those rats fed on the high-phosphorus diet containing K5P3O10. These results indicate that the intake of a high-phosphorus diet, more strongly influenced the nephrocalcinosis and proximal tubular function when K5P3O10 rather than KH2PO4 was used as the dietary phosphorus source.     

Inorganic salts influence IAA ionization and adventitious rhizogenesis in Pongamia pinnata

The basal cut end of coppice shoot cuttings of Pongamia pinnata was treated for 24 h with 0 (water treated control) or 5.0 mmol/L of KMnO4, KCI, and KH2PO4 or 2.5 mmol/L of K2HPO4 and K2SO4. Inorganic salts of P, S, Cl and Mn significantly influenced IAA ionization and adventitious rhizogenesis. P and S salts had lower IAA ionization potential, but more pronounced effect on adventitious rhizogenesis than Cl and Mn salts. The linear regression analysis also established negative correlations between salt induced IAA ionization with various characteristics of adventitious rhizogenesis such as sprouting (r = -0.83, p < 0.05), rooting (r = -0.82, p < 0.05), root number (r = -0.95, p < 0.01), and root length (r = -0.80, p < 0.1). The implication of IAA ionization in adventitious rhizogenesis has been discussed and the possible role of inorganic salts therein suggested.     

Optimization of fermentation conditions for preparation of polygalacturonic acid transeliminase by Erwinia carotovora IFO3830

This paper is concerned with optimization of the fermentation conditions for preparation of alkaline pectin lyase (poly-galacturonic acid trans-eliminase, PATE) by Erwinia carotovora IFO3830 (E.C.IFO3830). The orthogonal matrix method was adopted as the experimental design method for media. The effects of media composition on the growth rate of E.C.IFO3830 are in the order of pectin > KH(2)PO(4)/Na(2)HPO(4) > MgSO(4) > (NH(4))(2)SO(4) > glucose > L-glutamate sodium, and those on PATE activity are in the order of glucose > pectin > L-glutamate sodium > KH(2)PO(4)/Na(2)HPO(4) > MgSO(4) > (NH(4))(2)SO(4). The strain of E.C.IFO3830 grows quickly and easily near an initial pH of 7.0, and especially at the alkaline range of pH 7.0-8.0. The growth rate profiles indicate that E.C.IFO3830 grows very quickly; its generation time t(1/2) is about 0.2 h. The appropriate fermentation period is about 10-20 h for a high level productivity of biomass and 25-35 h for high productivity of PATE enzyme.
