Giardia lamblia cysts were inactivated in water with ozone at pH 7.0 and 5 and 25 degrees C. The concentration-time products for 99% inactivation were 0.53 and 0.17 mg-min/liter at 5 and 25 degrees C, respectively. These products were significantly lower than those reported for chlorine. 相似文献

Fumigant activity of 34 commercial essential oils was assessed on female adults and eggs of twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae) at three temperatures (5, 15, and 25 degrees C). Common thyme, cinnamon, and lemongrass oils were equally effective on twospotted spider mite adults showing 85.8-100% mortality at 5 and 10 microl/liter air at 25 degrees C. At a lower temperature of 15 degrees C, lemongrass and peppermint resulted in > or =90% mortality of adults at 10 microl/liter air. Only lemongrass was relatively active at 5 microl/liter air, at 15 degrees C. At 5 degrees C, lemongrass and peppermint caused significantly higher adult mortality than controls but only at 10 microl/liter air. Common thyme oil showed the highest ovicidal activity at 5 microl/liter air at 25 degrees C. Among the main components of common thyme and lemongrass oils, citral was lethal to twospotted spider mite adults at all tested temperatures. Carvacrol, thymol, and citral caused the same inhibitory effects on the hatch of twospotted spider mite eggs at 25 degrees C. However, citral was more active than other compounds to twospotted spider mite eggs at 15 degrees C. Therefore, we conclude that citral has the best potential for development as a fumigant against twospotted spider mite on agricultural products harvested late in the growing season. 相似文献

Temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants for the gal80 and gal4 genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were isolated and characterized. These mutants were classified into two categories; one showed thermolability (TL) and the other showed temperature-sensitive synthesis (TSS) of the respective products. Both the TL and TSS gal80 mutants are constitutive for galactokinase activity at 35 degrees C and, because they are derived from a dominant super-repressible GAL80s mutant, are uninducible at 25 degrees C. Both the TL and TSS gal4 mutants are galactose negative at 35 degrees C and galactose positive at 25 degrees C. None of the ts gal4 mutations affected the thermolability of galactokinase activity in cell extracts. Induction of galactokinase activity was studied with these mutants. The results indicate that the gal80 gene codes for a repressor and the gal4 gene codes for a positive factor indispensable for the expression of the structural genes or their products. However, striking evidence that the expression of the gal4 gene is constitutive and not under the control of gal80 was provided by a kinetic study with the TL gal4 mutant. The TL gal4 mutant pregrown in glycerol nutrient medium at 35 degrees C showed a prolonged lag period (35 min) in the induction of galactokinase activity at 25 degrees C, whereas the same mutant pregrown at 25 degrees C showed the same lag period as those observed in the wild-type strain and a revertant clone derived from the TL gal4 mutant (15 min). 相似文献

Reactions of ethyleneimine with guanosine and deoxyguanosine 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
K Hemminki 《Chemico-biological interactions》1984,48(3):249-260
Ethyleneimine was reacted with guanosine in aqueous medium and the products were purified by Sephadex G-10 and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Two products were identified by UV-spectroscopy: imidazole-ring opened 7-alkylguanosine and 1-alkylguanosine, accounting for 80% and 14% of all adduct radioactivity, respectively. When the incubation with ethyleneimine and guanosine or deoxyguanosine was carried out at pH 6.0 for 1 h intact 7-alkylation products were detected. The half-life of imidazole ring opening of 7-alkylguanosine was 11, 5 and 2.8 min at pH-values 7.0, 7.7 and 8.0, respectively, as measured fluorometrically at 25 degrees C. The respective half-life of alkylated deoxyguanosine was 21 min at pH 7.7. The half-life of depurination of alkylated deoxyguanosine was 42 min at pH 6.0 and 25 degrees C. 相似文献

The chlorine resistance of cysts of the flagellate protozoan Giardia muris was examined. This organism, which is pathogenic to mice, is being considered as a model for the inactivation of the human pathogen Giardia lamblia. Excystation was used as the criterion for cyst viability. Experiments were performed at pH 5, 7, and 9 at 25 degrees C and pH 7 at 5 degrees C. Survival curves were "stepladder"-shaped, but concentration-time data generally conformed to Watson's Law. Chlorine was most effective at neutral pH and was only slightly less so in acidic solutions. Comparison of inactivation data based on equivalent hypochlorous acid concentrations, which corrects for chlorine ionization, showed that the cysts have a pH-dependent resistance to inactivation. Concentration-time (C X t') products for free chlorine obtained at 25 degrees C ranged from a low of 50 mg min/liter at pH 5 to a high of 218 mg min/liter at pH 9 and were as high as 1,000 mg min/liter at 5 degrees C. It appears that G. muris cysts are somewhat more resistant to inactivation than G. lamblia cysts and rank among the microorganisms that are most resistant to inactivation by free chlorine. 相似文献

AIMS: To evaluate spoilage and identify lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from spoilage associations of cooked and brined shrimps stored under modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) at 0, 5, 8, 15 and 25 degrees C. METHODS AND RESULTS: Bacterial isolates (102) from spoilage associations of cooked and brined MAP shrimps were characterized by phenotypic tests and identified as lactic acid bacteria (78 isolates), other Gram-positive bacteria (13 isolates) and Gram-negative bacteria (11 isolates). A selection of 48 LAB isolates were further characterized and identified by phenotypic tests and SDS-PAGE electrophoresis of whole cell proteins. Selected clusters of LAB isolates were analysed by plasmid profiling, pulsed field gel electrophoresis and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Enterococcus faecalis was identified in spoilage associations at 15 degrees C and 25 degrees C, and its metabolic activity corresponded to chemical changes in spoiled products. Carnobacterium divergens, a non-motile Carnobacterium sp. nov. and Lactobacillus curvatus were the LAB species observed in spoilage associations of products stored at 0 degrees C, 5 degrees C and 8 degrees C. CONCLUSIONS: Enterococcus spp. and Carnobacterium spp. were the dominant parts of spoilage associations of cooked and brined MAP shrimps stored at high and low temperatures, respectively. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The SDS-PAGE technique and simple biochemical keys allowed the majority of LAB isolates from spoilage associations of cooked and brined MAP shrimps to be identified at the species level. 相似文献

Starches were extracted from freshly harvested potatoes (12 cultivars, grown in Perthshire) and the properties of the starches of six cultivars were compared with starches extracted from the same samples but stored at 5, 25 or 55 degrees C for 7 days before extraction. The amylose (total) content of the freshly extracted starches from tubers stored at 5, 25 or 55 degrees C was on average 27.9+/-2.3, 28.3+/-1.7, 29.2+/-2.2 and 28.8+/-1.5%, respectively, with corresponding phosphorus representing 60+/-16, 64+/-9, 61+/-5 and 63+/-9 mg 100 g(-1). The unit chain distribution by chromatography of the amylopectin molecules from the starches extracted from the different conditions was very similar with an average degree of polymerisation (DP) of 26+/-2 where the two major fractions (F1 and F2) represented 54+/-2 and 19+/-1, respectively. Peak gelatinisation temperatures (Tp) and enthalpies (DeltaH) for the freshly extracted starches and from tubers stored at 5 or 25 degrees C were very similar (63.3+/-1.5 degrees C and 18.6+/-0.8 J g(-1); 63.1+/-1.0 degrees C and 17.7+/-1.5 J g(-1) and; 62.9+/-0.7 degrees C and 18.7+/-1.1 J g(-1), respectively) although starches stored at 55 degrees C were annealed, where Tp represented 71.1+/-1.1 degrees C and DeltaH 18.1+/-1.4 J g(-1). These in situ-annealed starches were comparable in terms of gelatinisation characteristics to annealed freshly extracted starches where on average, T(p) represented 72.7+/-1.0 degrees C and DeltaH 20.8+/-1.0 J g(-1). Annealing of tubers in situ prior to processing might be beneficial with respect to developing new potato-based products. 相似文献

Susceptibility of cartilage collagens type II, IX, X, and XI to human synovial collagenase and neutrophil elastase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
S J Gadher D R Eyre V C Duance S F Wotton L W Heck T M Schmid D E Woolley 《European journal of biochemistry》1988,175(1):1-7
The action of purified rheumatoid synovial collagenase and human neutrophil elastase on the cartilage collagen types II, IX, X and XI was examined. At 25 degrees C, collagenase attacked type II and type X (45-kDa pepsin-solubilized) collagens to produce specific products reflecting one and at least two cleavages respectively. At 35 degrees C, collagenase completely degraded the type II collagen molecule to small peptides whereas a large fragment of the type X molecule was resistant to further degradation. In contrast, collagen type IX (native, intact and pepsin-solubilized type M) and collagen type XI were resistant to collagenase attack at both 25 degrees C and 35 degrees C even in the presence of excess enzyme. Mixtures of type II collagen with equimolar amounts of either type IX or XI did not affect the rate at which the former was degraded by collagenase at 25 degrees C. Purified neutrophil elastase, shown to be functionally active against soluble type III collagen, had no effect on collagen type II at 25 degrees C or 35 degrees C. At 25 degrees C collagen types IX (pepsin-solubilized type M) and XI were also resistant to elastase, but at 35 degrees C both were susceptible to degradation with type IX being reduced to very small peptides. Collagen type X (45-kDa pepsin-solubilized) was susceptible to elastase attack at 25 degrees C and 35 degrees C as judged by the production of specific products that corresponded closely with those produced by collagenase. Although synovial collagenase failed to degrade collagen types IX and XI, all the cartilage collagen species examined were degraded at 35 degrees C by conditioned culture medium from IL1-activated human articular chondrocytes. Thus chondrocytes have the potential to catabolise each cartilage collagen species, but the specificity and number of the chondrocyte-derived collagenase(s) has yet to be resolved. 相似文献

Anhydrobiosis is considered to be an important means of achieving storage stability of entomopathogenic nematodes that are used in biological control. This study explored the effects of anhydrobiosis on longevity and infectivity of infective juveniles (IJs) of three species of entomopathogenic nematodes Steinernema carpocapsae, Steinernema feltiae, and Steinernema riobrave at 5 and 25 degrees C. Anhydrobiosis was induced in water-dispersible granules (WG) at 0.966-0.971 water activity and 25 degrees C following a 7-day preconditioning of IJs at 5 degrees C in tap water. Survival and infectivity of the desiccated (anhydrobiotic) IJs was compared with non-desiccated IJs stored in water for different periods. Anhydrobiosis increased longevity of S. carpocapsae IJs by 3 months and of S. riobrave by 1 month in WG at 25 degrees C as compared with IJs stored in water. However, desiccation decreased S. feltiae longevity at 25 degrees C and of all three species at 5 degrees C. These results demonstrate a shelf-life of 5 months for S. carpocapsae at 25 degrees C and 9 months at 5 degrees C in WG with over 90% IJ survival. For S. feltiae, over 90% survival occurred only for 2 months at 25 degrees C and 5 months at 5 degrees C in WG. Steinernema riobrave had over 90% survival only for 1 month at 25 degrees C and the survival dropped below 85% within 1 month at 5 degrees C. Induction of anhydrobiosis in WG resulted in 85, 79 and 76% reduction in oxygen consumption by S. carpocapsae, S. feltiae, and S. riobrave IJs, respectively. Differences in IJ longevity among three species in water at 25 degrees C were related both to the initial lipid content and the rate of lipid utilisation, but not at 5 degrees C. The one-on-one infection bioassays indicated that desiccation had no negative effect on the infectivity of any of the nematode species suggesting no harmful effect on the IJs and/or their symbiotic bacteria. The species differences in IJ longevity and desiccation survival at different temperatures are discussed in relation to their foraging strategy and temperature adaptation. 相似文献

AIMS: The present work investigates the possibility that temperature could regulate the pattern of transformation of 2,4'-chlorobiphenyl (2,4'-CB) by psychrotolerant Hydrogenophaga sp. IA3-A. Methods AND RESULTS: Transformation of 2,4'-chlorobiphenyl to 2- and 4-chlorobenzoic acid (2- and 4-CBA), and meta-cleavage products by cells of strain IA3-A incubated at 10 degrees C, 25 degrees C, 37 degrees C or 45 degrees C were monitored by UV spectrometry, HPLC and GC-MS analyses. Cultures incubated at 10 degrees C, 25 degrees C or 37 degrees C produced low amounts of CBAs and excess levels of meta-cleavage products from 2,4'-CB. Cultures incubated at 45 degrees C transformed most of the degraded 2,4'-CB to CBAs and low level of meta-cleavage product. Culture extracts contained unusual varieties of isomeric hydroxylated metabolic products. CONCLUSIONS: Efficient transformation of 2,4'-CB to CBAs was possible in cultures incubated at 45 degrees C. Evidence for the involvement of multiple pathways in the transformation of 2,4'-CB in strain IA3-A suggests that differential regulation of the pathways at different temperatures was likely responsible for the change in the pattern of transformation of 2,4'-CB in cultures incubated at 45 degrees C. Significance AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: It may be possible to condition cells to transform chlorinated biphenyls more efficiently without accumulating excess level of toxic intermediates. 相似文献

Two nonallelic Four-spore mutants are known in which ascospore walls enclose the four immediate products of meiosis rather than the normal eight products of a postmeiotic mitosis. Expression depends on temperature. The Four-spore phenotype is expressed when the developing asci are subjected either to high temperatures (25-30 degrees C) for Fsp-1 or to low temperatures (15-20 degrees C) for Fsp-2. Heterozygous Fsp-1 X Fsp-1+ crosses make eight-spored asci at 15-20 degrees C but produce many four-spored asci at 25 degrees C and mostly four-spored asci at 30 degrees C. Homozygous Fsp-1 X Fsp-1 crosses respond similarly to increasing temperature but make 40-50% four-spored asci even at 20 degrees C. Heterozygous Fsp-2 X Fsp-2+ crosses produce almost exclusively four-spored asci at 15 degrees C but a mixture of four- and eight-spored asci at 20, 25, and 30 degrees C. Homozygous Fsp-2 X Fsp-2 crosses make all four-spored asci at 15 and 20 degrees C and a mixture of four- and eight-spored asci at 25 and 30 degrees C. When both Fsp-1 and Fsp-2 are present in a cross, either homozygous or heterozygous, no asci contain more than four ascospores at any temperature. Limited temperature-shift experiments with Fsp-1 and Fsp-2 show that the sensitive period for Four-spore expression is sometime after meiotic prophase, possibly at interphase II. 相似文献

Combinatorial polymer libraries have recently gained popularity for the development of novel materials for a variety of biomedical applications including non-viral gene delivery systems and biodegradable polymers for tissue engineering. To streamline the nontrivial task of library synthesis, activated ester homopolymers have been used to serve as a backbone to which primary amine-containing functional groups (NH2-FGs) can be covalently bound at varying ratios. Polymethacryloxysuccinimide (poly(MAOS)) is one such homopolymer that was previously reported to be an attractive precursor for polymeric drug and gene delivery systems. The reported functionalization protocols entailed conjugating the precursor with 2 equiv of the NH2-FG at a reaction concentration of 25 mg poly(MAOS)/150 microL DMSO for either 5 h at 50 degrees C or 16 h at 25 degrees C. More recently, both protocols were revealed to be associated with ring-opening and glutarimide-forming side reactions that compromise the utility of the homopolymer. Using 1-dimensional and 2-dimensional NMR spectroscopy techniques, we have characterized the side product distributions that result from conjugations performed at 50 degrees C/5 h and 25 degrees C/16 h. Moreover, by systematically altering the equivalents of the NH2-FGs, polymer concentration, reaction time, and reaction temperature, we have established a protocol that overcomes these side reactions. Using a final reaction protocol of 5 equiv of the NH2-FG at a reaction concentration of 25 mg poly(MAOS)/600 microL DMSO for 24 h at 75 degrees C, we have obtained functionalized polymers with minimal side products. This protocol is applicable for polymers ranging from 5000 to 50,000 g/mol, compatible with a variety of functional groups, and amenable to conjugating combinations of functional groups. 相似文献

Fresh eggs obtained from female Nematospiroides dubius were cultured at temperatures ranging from 5 degrees C to 33 degrees C. Hatching occurred between 5 degrees C and 30 degrees C; third stage larvae were obtained between five degrees C and 25 degrees C. The minimum time required from hatching to development to the third stage was 3-6 days (at 20 degrees C) and the maximum was seven days (at 5 degrees C). Larvae cultured at higher temperatures were smaller than those cultured at lower ones. 相似文献

The development of five geographic isolates of Steinernema feltiae at 5, 8, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 28 degrees C in wax moth, Galleria mellonella, larvae was examined. The isolates were from Mediterranean (Sinop from Turkey, SN from France, and Monterey from California), subtropical (Rafaela from Argentina), and tropical (MG-14 from Hawaii) regions. All isolates caused 100% mortality of wax moth larvae and developed and produced progeny between 8 and 25 degrees C. At 28 degrees C, mortality was 100%, but no progeny was observed. The highest infective juvenile production was observed at 15 degrees C for all isolates. In general, the tropical isolate, MG-14, had the lowest production of infective juveniles. The time of emergence of the infective juveniles from the host cadaver showed some differences among isolates, with the Sinop isolate having the earliest emergence time from cadavers at 15 degrees C (10 days) and 20 degrees C (8 days). At 25 degrees C, the infective juveniles of the Sinop, SN, and Rafaela isolates emerged from the cadavers from 5 to 7 days. Time of host death by all isolates showed no differences at 8, 10, 15, 20, and 28 degrees C. At 25 degrees C for all isolates (except the MG-14), shorter times to host death were observed. Host death occurred at 12 days at 8 degrees C, 9 to 11 days at 10 degrees C, 4 to 5 days at 15 degrees C, 3 days at 20 degrees C, and 2 days at 25 and 28 degrees C. For penetration efficiency, the Sinop, SN, and Rafaela isolates penetrated their hosts at 5, 8, and 10 degrees C. Penetration of the infective juveniles was consistently high for all isolates at 15, 20, 25, and 28 degrees C, but it was significantly lower for the MG-14 isolate at 15, 25, and 28 degrees C. No progeny production occurred at 28 degrees C, but nematode penetration did occur with the MG-14 isolate having significantly lower penetration than the other isolates. When nematodes were produced at 8, 15, and 23 degrees C in wax moth larvae, all isolates had infective juveniles with longer body lengths at 8 degrees C followed by 15 and 23 degrees C. To further verify body length at the different temperatures, beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua, larvae and dog-food agar medium were used, respectively, for in vivo and in vitro culture of the Sinop isolate. Infective juvenile body length showed the same trends, with the longest being at 8 degrees C and decreasing in length from 15 to 23 degrees C. The data suggest that quality of food for the nematode and temperature (that is, developmental time) influence the body length of the infective juvenile. 相似文献

The lpxH gene encodes the UDP-2,3-diacylglucosamine-specific pyrophosphatase that catalyzes the fourth step of lipid A biosynthesis in Escherichia coli. To confirm the function of lpxH, we constructed KB21/pKJB5. This strain contains a kanamycin insertion element in the chromosomal copy of lpxH, complemented by plasmid pKJB5, which is temperature-sensitive for replication and harbors lpxH(+). KB21/pKJB5 grows at 30 degrees C but loses viability at 44 degrees C, demonstrating that lpxH is essential. CDP-diglyceride hydrolase (Cdh) catalyzes the same reaction as LpxH in vitro but is non-essential and cannot compensate for the absence of LpxH. The presence of Cdh in cell extracts interferes with the LpxH assay. We therefore constructed KB25/pKJB5, which contains both an in-frame deletion of cdh and a kanamycin insertion mutation in lpxH, covered by pKJB5. When KB25/pKJB5 cells are grown at 44 degrees C, viability is lost, and all in vitro LpxH activity is eliminated. A lipid migrating with synthetic UDP-2,3-diacylglucosamine accumulates in KB25/pKJB5 following loss of the covering plasmid at 44 degrees C. This material was converted to the expected products, 2,3-diacylglucosamine 1-phosphate and UMP, by LpxH. Pseudomonas aeruginosa contains two proteins with sequence similarity to E. coli LpxH. The more homologous protein catalyzes UDP-2,3-diacylglucosamine hydrolysis in vitro. The corresponding gene complements KB25/pKJB5 at 44 degrees C, but the less homologous gene does not. The accumulation of UDP-2,3-diacylglucosamine in our lpxH mutant is consistent with the observation that the lipid A disaccharide synthase LpxB, the next enzyme in the pathway, cannot condense two UDP-2,3-diacylglucosamine molecules, but instead utilizes UDP-2,3-diacylglucosamine as its donor and 2,3-diacylglucosamine 1-phosphate as its acceptor. 相似文献

1. The extent of cardiovascular adjustments to heat and cold were investigated between ambient temperatures of 5 and 45 degrees C by measuring conductance and the rates of oxygen consumption and heart beats. 2. Minimum heart rate was observed at 25 degrees C (114 +/- 9 beats/min). In the heat at 45 degrees C heart rate was observed to increase only slightly (127 +/- 12 beats/min) but in the cold -5 degrees C heart rate nearly doubled that at 25 degrees C. 3. Thermal conductance was on average 0.031 mlO2 (g. hr. degrees C)-1 below 25 degrees C but increased by more than 20 times at 40 degrees C. 4. A positive correlation between heart rate and rate of oxygen consumption was demonstrated below 25 degrees C and the relation may be of practical use. 相似文献

Chinese hamster ovary cells in suspension cultures were heated for various times at 41.5, 43.5, and 45.5 degrees C, and quantitative determinations of microblebbing and macroblebbing of the cell membrane were performed for cells maintained at 4, 25, and 37 degrees C after hyperthermia. The percentage of cells with blebs following heating at 45.5 degrees C was dependent upon the duration of heating with increases from 40% for 5 min to 90% for 30 min. Cells exposed to lower temperatures exhibited less blebbing which was not quantifiable. The changes in bleb formation following 45.5 degrees C were dependent upon the posthyperthermia temperature: a slight decrease of macroblebbing at 25 degrees C, a decrease to 50% by 2 h at 37 degrees C, and a sharp decrease of macroblebbing to less than 10% by 1 h at 4 degrees C. Microblebbing increased slightly at 37 degrees C. When cells were transferred rapidly from the 4 degrees C posthyperthermia incubation to 37 degrees C, the bleb formation percentages returned rapidly to the higher levels which existed before posthyperthermia incubation at the lower temperatures. Gamma irradiation of 20 and 50 Gy produced only a small increase in microblebbing at longer periods (5 to 6 h) but no increase in macroblebbing. The survival of cells heated for 20 min at 45.5 degrees C was decreased 40% for suspension cells maintained at 4 degrees C for 2 to 3 h before incubation at 37 degrees C for colony formation compared to cells immediately incubated at 37 degrees C after heating. The survival of cells maintained at 25 degrees C after heating was not altered in comparison. 相似文献

Anaerobic degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) between 5 and 72 degrees C was investigated. Anaerobic sediment slurries prepared from local freshwater pond sediments were partitioned into anaerobic tubes or serum vials, which then were incubated separately at the various temperatures. Reductive 2,4-DCP dechlorination occurred only in the temperature range between 5 and 50 degrees C, although methane was formed up to 60 degrees C. In sediment samples from two sites and at all tested temperatures from 5 to 50 degrees C, 2,4-DCP was transformed to 4-chlorophenol (4-CP). The 4-CP intermediate was subsequently degraded after an extended lag period in the temperature range from 15 to 40 degrees C. Adaptation periods for 2,4-DCP transformation decreased between 5 and 25 degrees C, were essentially constant between 25 and 35 degrees C, and increased in the tubes incubated at temperatures between 35 and 40 degrees C. The degradation rates increased exponentially between 15 and 30 degrees C, had a second peak at 35 degrees C, and decreased to about 5% of the peak activity by 40 degrees C. In tubes from one sediment sample, incubated at temperatures above 40 degrees C, an increase in the degradation rate was observed following the minimum at 40 degrees C. This suggests that at least two different organisms were involved in the transformation of 2,4-DCP to 4-CP. Storage of the original sediment slurries for 2 months at 12 degrees C resulted in increased adaptation times, but did not affect the degradation rates. 相似文献
