Survival of Campylobacter jejuni in raw, pasteurized and ultra-heat-treated goat's milk stored at different temperatures 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
The survival of a human strain of Campylobacter jejuni in raw, pasteurized and ultra-heat-treated goat's milk stored at 5°, 10°, 15° and 20°C was studied. No viable units were detected in raw milk after 24 h at 20°C and 48 h at 15°C. None were detected in pasteurized milk after 48 h at 20°C. In all other samples, there was a decline in viable units in the first 24 h but very little decline in the next 24 h period. The organism survived best at 5° and 10° C. 相似文献

The resistance to low tensions of dissolved oxygen over periods ranging from less than a day to a week was determined for rainbow trout ( Salmo gairdnerii Richardson), perch ( Perca fluviatilis L.), roach ( Rutilus rutilus (L.)), and mirror carp, a domestic form of the common carp ( Cyprinus carpio L.) at 10°, 16° and 20°C., tench ( Tinea tinea (L.)) at 10° and 16°C., dace ( Leuciscus leuciscus (L.)) at 16° and 20°C., chub ( Squalius cephalus (L.)) at 20°C., and bleak ( Alburnus alburnus (L.)) at 16°C.
At each temperature period of survival decreased with fall in oxygen tension.
Rise in temperature between 10° and 20°C. reduced resistance to lack of oxygen of all species except rainbow trout, in which there was no significant difference between resistance at 16° and 20°C. Rise in temperature between 10° and 16°C. did, however, lower resistance considerably.
Tench were the most resistant to lack of oxygen and, in general, trout were the most susceptible. At 20°C. mirror carp required a higher tension of oxygen to enable them to survive for a week than did rainbow trout, but for shorter periods could withstand much lower tensions than rainbow trout; at 10° and 16°C. their resistance was intermediate between that of tench and rainbow trout. 相似文献

Studies on the effect of temperature on the development of the water chestnut beetle, Galerucella birmanica Jacoby were carried out in the laboratory at seven different temperatures: 16 °C, 19 °C, 22 °C, 25 °C, 28 °C, 31 °C and 34 °C. The developmental time decreased with increase in temperature. The developmental time at 16 °C, 19 °C, 22 °C, 25 °C, 28 °C, 31 °C and 34 °C was 96.60, 80.68, 58.96, 43.48, 35.03, 30.08 and 28.02 days for the period from egg hatching to adult emergence, respectively. The developmental threshold estimated for a generation by linear regression was 10.36 °C. The fecundity per female at 22 °C, 25 °C, 28 °C, 31 °C and 34 °C was 102.3, 134.5, 141.2, 130.1 and 116.2 eggs, respectively. Oviposition period ranged from 15.6 days at 22 °C to 8.6 days at 34 °C. Hatchability of eggs was highest at 31 °C with 76.9% and lowest at 34 °C with 57.1%. The highest generation survival rate was 65.3% at 31 °C, and the intrinsic rate of natural increase ( r m ) for G. birmanica was the highest at 34 °C. 相似文献

Bacillus sphaericus 9602 was grown in batch culture at various temperatures. At 10°C and 12°C the maximum sporulation yield was <10%, while at 15°C, 20°C and 30°C, a sporulation yield of >95% was achieved. However at 40°C B. sphaericus grew only vegetatively. The heat resistances (D values at 90°C) of spores grown at 15°C and 20°C were significantly higher than those grown at 30°C. 相似文献

Grouped data for head and body mean-preferred temperature were 31.° C (range 28.9° -35.9° C) and 32.0° C (range 29.9° -35.6° C) respectively, and the differences were not significant. Grouped data for measn-voluntary maxima for the head and body were 34.4° C (range 31.4° -38.1° C) and 33.7° C (range 31.5° -38.5° C) respectively. A comparison of thermal preferenda and varying sized individuals of Alligator mississipiensis showed a direct relationship between size and preferred temperature. The most effective method of reducing head and body temperature was that of seeking shade; water would be effective, but in this study enough water for complete submersion was not available in the experimental enclosures. Gaping was observed several times during the study but had little effect on head temperature. Heating and cooling experiments conducted in constant temperatute water-baths demonstrated that a 49.9 kg alligator heated in 36.5% of the time it required to cool. The alligator shows a greater alteration in heating and cooling time than any other reptile studied. 相似文献

Scytosiphon complanatus from Greenland was grown under long-day conditions on a temperature-gradient device with a temperature range from 5.4°C to 31.8°C. Growth was optimal between 16.0°C and 20.9°C. In a four week experimental period at 5.4°C and 7.5°C growth was slow and not measurable. The inoculated germlings died at temperatures between 24.0°C and 27.5°C. Under all temperatures the prostrate systems, knot filaments or ralfsioid thalli, as well as the parenchymatous macrothalli remained sterile during the experimental period. Prolongation of the growth period showed that formation of swarmers was prevented at temperatures above 18.6°C. The geographic distribution is discussed in relation to these results. 相似文献

Twelve Listeria monocytogenes strains representing seven serovars were heat-treated in physiological saline by a glass capillary tube method. Five strains were treated at 58°, 60° and 62°C, three at 60°, 62° and 64°C and four at 60°C. Heat-treated bacteria were recovered on blood agar in two ways: (1) incubation at 37°C for 7 d; and (2) preincubation at 4°C for 5 d, followed by incubation at 37°C for 7 d. D and z values were determined. Better average recovery and higher D values were obtained when the preincubation procedure was used. The final evaluations of the heat resistance properties of the strains were therefore based on values for preincubated samples. D values recorded at 58°, 60°, 62° and 64°C for preincubated samples were 1.7–3.4, 0.72–3.1, 0.30–1.3 and 0.33–0.68 min, respectively. z values determined were 5.2–6.9°C. D values were compared statistically. Significant differences in heat resistance were noted both between serovars and between strains belonging to the same serovar. 相似文献

The effects of temperature on maintenance and termination of embryonic diapause were investigated in Jining (35.4°N, 116.6°E) and Sihong (33.5°N, 118.2°E) strains of the Chinese rice grasshopper, Oxya chinensis Thunberg (Orthoptera: Catantopidae). Eggs of both strains entered diapause when incubated at 30, 25, or 20 °C. Chilling at 8 °C had an evident effect on diapause termination and almost all eggs chilled for 60 days ended diapause development. Chilling of eggs at 8 °C for only 20 days failed to result in any hatching at 20 °C, suggesting that such level of chilling was not enough to induce diapause termination. However, the treatment combining incubation of eggs at 30 °C for varying lengths of time with subsequent incubation to 20 °C had a distinct effect on the completion of diapause of the eggs. The results indicate that there were two temperature optima, that is, low temperature (chilling) and high temperature, for diapause development in this grasshopper species. Incubation of chilled eggs at 20 °C for 5–15 days followed by further incubation at 25 °C reduced termination of diapause significantly compared with the eggs only chilled at 8 °C. Exposure of eggs chilled at 8 °C to a pulse of 25 °C from 1 to 7 days, separated by a 20-day interval at 8 °C, resulted in a decrease in the percentage of successfully hatched eggs as the length of the pulse of 25 °C increased. The results suggest that diapause intensity may be restored at moderately high temperatures. This reversible change in diapause intensity would play an important role in maintaining diapause before winter. 相似文献

Olive seeds do not germinate promptly when placed under favourable conditions, which is a problem in raising young plants for breeding or experimental purposes. In a series of experiments an investigation of the role of temperature in the germination of olive embryos was conducted. Naked, unchilled olive embryos ( Olea europaea L. cv. Chalkidikis), cultured in vitro at 20°C, had a germination capacity of 73%, whereas that of embryos which had previously been chilled at 10°C for 2 or more weeks reached 96%. Intact seeds did not germinate at 20°C unless they had previously been subjected to 10°C for 3 or 4 weeks. Embryos chilled while in the intact seed and excised just before transfer to 20°C, reacted in a similar way to naked embryos, but reached their maximum germination capacity after 4 weeks at 10°C. Under constant temperature conditions the highest germination percentage of embryos was observed at 10 and 15°C and the highest germination rate at 15°C, while a moderate capacity and rate of germination occurred at 20°C, and a very low percentage and rate at 25 and 30°C. Prechilling at 10°C did not affect germination at 15°C, but improved the percentage and the rate of germination at 20, 25 and 30°C. The germination percentages of embryos chilled for 1 or 2 weeks at 10°C and then transferred to 25°C were lower than those of similarly chilled embryos transferred to 20°C. The chilling effect could not be reversed at 25°C when the embryos had been chilled for 3 or more weeks. The results show that olive seeds exhibit a state of dormancy that is caused by factors residing partly in the endosperm and partly within the embryo. 相似文献

The ultrastructural organization of the primary (1°) and secondary (2°) cysts of Aphanomyces astaci and A. laevis is extremely similar, and similar to that of the 1° and 2° cysts of A. eutekhes as presented earlier by Hoch and Mitchell. Synchronous populations of 2° cysts can be induced by mechanical shock and encystment appears to be essentially instantaneous. The cyst coat–wall appears to be formed extremely rapidly from material from the peripheral vesicles with flocculent content. After encystment the microtubule cytoskeleton found in the zoospore is maintained in the 1° and 2° cyst (i.e. the single microtubules which extend along the pyriform nucleus from the ki–netosomes–centrioles and the bundles of closely appressed microtubules are retained). The peripheral vesicles with granular content found in the zoospore are not seen in the 1° or 2° cyst. Multivesicular bodies and lomasomes are observed in the 1° and 2° cyst which are not found in the zoospore. The peripheral cisternae of the zoospore are lost upon encystment and may be formed from dictyosome–derived vesicles during excystment of the 1° and 2° cyst. The U–body of A. astaci has a paracrystalline content while the U–body of A laevis and A eutekhes has a tubular content. A microbody–lipid body complex (sensu Powell) is found in the 1° and 2° cysts of A laevis but not in A astaci or A eutekhes. The significance of the presence of a microbody–lipid body complex in a biflagellate zoospore is discussed. 相似文献

Daily photosynthetic and C-export patterns in winter wheat leaves during cold stress and acclimation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Diurnal patterns of whole-plant and leaf gas exchange and 14 C-export of winter wheat acclimated at 20 and 5°C were determined. The 5°C-acclimated plants had lower relative growth rates, smaller biomass and leaf area, but larger specific leaf weight than 20°C plants. Photosynthetic rates in 20°C and 5°C-acclimated leaves were similar; however, daytime export from 5°C-acclimated leaves was 45% lower. Photosynthesis and export remained steady in 20°C and 5°C-acclimated leaves during the daytime. By comparison, photosynthesis in 5°C-stressed leaves (20°C-acclimated plants exposed to 5°C 12 h before and during measurements) declined from 70 to 50% of the 20°C-acclimated leaves during the daytime, while export remained constant at 35% of the 20°C-acclimated and 60% of the 5°C-acclimated leaves. At high light and CO2 , photosynthesis and export increased in both 20°C and 5°C-acclimated leaves, but rates in 5°C-stressed leaves remained unchanged. At all conditions daytime export was greater than nighttime export. Taken together, during cold acclimation photosynthesis was upregulated, whereas export was only partially increased. We suggest that this reflects a requirement of cold-acclimated plants to both sustain an increased leaf metabolic demand while concomitantly supporting translocation of photoassimilates to overwintering sinks. 相似文献

Juvenile salmon, Oncorhynchus tschawytscha Walbaum, were trained to orientate in a direction (270°) and then anaesthetized with ethyl m–aminobenzoate methane sulphonate (MS 222) in a test to determine whether anaesthesia affected the learnt orientation.
Before anaesthesia the control group of twelve fish showed a mean unimodal orientation of 264° and a bimodal axis of orientation of 258°/78° with a confidence limit (second order analysis) of 218°←→285°. After administration of MS 222 nine out of ten fish showed marked changes in orientation and random behaviour, persisting in two fish for more than 14 days. The mean of means unimodal orientation, after anaesthesia, was 337° (random) and the bimodal axis of orientation was 337°/157° (random).
Eight weeks after completion of the anaesthesia trial the fish were retested. Each fish, except one, showed a mean bimodal axis of orientation that fell within the confidence limit of the control. The mean axis of orientation for ten fish over a 3–day period was 270°/90°, (r) = 0.28.
The results support the view that the reference orientation in this study (270°) was a learnt, not an innate directional preference. The effects anaesthesia may have on salmon behaviour during migration are discussed. 相似文献

Abstract Effects of temperature on development, survival, and fecundity of boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis grandis Boheman, were assessed at 10, 11, 12, 15,20,25,30,35,45, and 46 °C; 65% relative humidity; and a photoperiod of 13:11 (L: D) h. The mortality of boll weevil immature stages was 100% at 12°C and decreased to 36.4% as the temperature increased to 25°C. When the temperature increased from 30 °C to 45 °C, the mortality of weevils also increased from 50.1% to 100%. From 15°C to 35°C, the bollweevilpreimaginal development rate was linearly related to temperature. The average development time of total boll weevil immature lifestages decreased 3.6-fold and the preovipositional period decreased 3.3-fold when the temperature was increased from 15°C to 30°C. The lower threshold for development was estimated at 10.9, 6.6, 7.0, and 9.0 °C for eggs, larval, pupal, and total immature stages, respectively, with total thermal time requirement to complete immature stages of 281.8 DD (degree day) (15°C) and 247.8 DD (35 °C). At 1LC and 46°C, weevil females did not oviposit. Longevity of adult females decreased 4.6-fold with increasing temperatures from 15°C to 35°C. Fecundity increased with increasing temperatures up to 30°C and significantly decreased thereafter. These findings will be useful in creating a temperature-based degree-day model for predicting the occurrence of key life stages in the field. An accurate predictor of a pest's development can be very important in determining sampling protocols, timing insecticide applications, or implementing an integrated pest management control strategy targeting susceptible life stages. 相似文献

Biphasic calcium phosphate scaffolds with 20/80 HA/TCP ratio were fabricated using the 3D-Bioplotting system to heal critical size defects in rabbit tibia bone. Four different architectures were printed in a layer by layer fashion with lay down patterns viz. (a) 0°– 90°, (b) 0°– 45°– 90°– 135°, (c) 0°–108°– 216° and (d) 0°– 60°– 120°. After high-temperature sintering scaffolds were coated with collagen and were further characterized by (FTIR) Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, (SEM) Scanning Electron Microscopy, (XRD) X-Ray diffraction, Porosity analysis and Mechanical testing. Scaffold samples were tested for its ability to induce cytotoxicity in Balb/c 3T3 cells at in vitro condition using elution method. Skin sensitization potential of scaffolds was evaluated in male guinea pigs using guinea pig maximization test (GPMT). Further, scaffolds were implanted in eight rabbit tibia bones and biocompatibility and histological evaluations were carried out after 4 and 8 weeks implantation periods. In-vitro results include bonding, surface morphology, phases, porosity, mechanical strength and Cytotoxicity. In-vivo results include sensitization, capsule formation, inflammation, presence of polymorphonuclear cells, giant cells, plasma cells, X-Rays and degradation of the material. It was concluded that HA/TCP/Collagen scaffold with 0°– 45°– 90°– 135° architecture exhibits the most excellent properties in healing critical size bone defects in rabbits. 相似文献

The enumeration of thermotrophic types amongst the Enterobacteriaceae colonizing perishable foods 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A total of 41 pure cultures of Enterobacteriaceae, comprising 32 thermotrophic and nine psychrotrophic strains, pathogens or marker organisms, were examined for numbers of colony forming units obtained at 37° and 42°5°C (thermotrophs) and 30°C (psychrotrophs), when surface-plated on a rich infusion agar and violet red bile agar. In addition 42 food and water samples, collected in a rural area of the Philippines, were examined by surface inoculating violet red bile AIPC (agar immersion plating and contact; 'dip') slides and incubating at 37° and 42°5°C. At 42°5°C there was almost total recovery of the thermotrophic Enterobacteriaceae, whereas the psychrotrophic strains were completely suppressed. At 37°C the psychrotrophs were only slightly inhibited. The Philippine foods, predominantly cooked meals, milk and drinking water, appeared to be significantly colonized by thermotrophic Enterobacteriaceae. It is concluded that incubation at 42°5°C satisfactorily selects enteropathogenic and other enteric Enterobacteriaceae while suppressing the psychrotrophic types which are mainly of vegetable origin. It is emphasized that, regardless of the temperature used, a resuscitation procedure for Enterobacteriaceae populations that have incurred sublethal injury in food has to precede counts on or in the usual selective media. 相似文献

S ummary : An inoculum of 105 spores of Clostridium welchii F2985/50 in meat survived steaming at 100° for 5 h, the number being reduced sevenfold for every hour of steaming. They also survived for at least 6 months in frozen meat stored at -5° and -20°, whereas vegetative cells died more rapidly at -5° than at -20°. In beef stored for 13 days at 1°, 5°, 10° and 15° there was no multiplication but a slow destruction of vegetative cells, but there was little change in the spore count. Slow multiplication occurred at 20° but at 25° and 37° growth was rapid. Only about 3% of the spores germinated without prior heat shock, so the majority failed to germinate in raw meat stored at any temperature, but did so once the meat had been heated. In meat which had been heated and allowed to cool almost all of the spores had lost their heat resistance.
It was found that the minimal growth temperature was related to pH and medium, so that meat with a pH higher than that used in these experiments (pH 5°7–5°8) would probably have a lower minimal growth temperature for these organisms and would thus be more susceptible to spoilage. 相似文献

Analysis of the response of leaf extension to chilling temperatures in Lolium temulentum seedlings 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Howard Thomas 《Physiologia plantarum》1983,57(4):509-513
Lolium temulentum L. plants were grown at 20°C and transferred to 2°C or 5°C at 21, 28 or 35 days after sowing, when leaves 3, 4 and 5, respectively, were at mid-expansion and leaves 4, 5 and 6 were just emerging. Leaves of plants exposed to 2°C for 7 or 14 days before their date of emergence at 20°C failed to appear at all during the course of the experiment. Transfer to 2°C at emergence resulted in a delay of about 40 days before expansion was detected and subsequent growth was extremely slow. By contrast, although leaves of seedlings exposed to 5°C at or prior to emergence were significantly smaller and slower-growing than the same leaves of plants maintained at 20°C, the difference in vegetative development and tillering between 2°C and 5°C was much less marked than between 5°C and 2°C, implying the existence of a rather sharp threshold for growth between the latter temperatures. Leaves transferred to 2°C at mid-expansion attained a final size not very different from leaves exposed to 5°C at the same time, but expension rates were only 20–30% of those at 5°C, and the time taken to achieve full expansion a corresponding 3 to 5 times longer. These responses were quantified by fitting Richards functions to measurements of leaf extension and determining, from the parameters of the curves, asymptotic maximal lengths, mean relative and absolute extension rates, inflexion points and durations of growth. The potential usefulness of Lolium temulentum as a model species for studying the relationship between temperature and growth in the Granmineae is discussed. 相似文献

Depending on the environmental conditions, imbibed seeds survive subzero temperatures either by supercooling or by tolerating freezing-induced desiccation. We investigated what the predominant survival mechanism is in freezing canola ( Brassica napus cv. Quest) and concluded that it depends on the cooling rate. Seeds cooled at 3°C h−1 or faster supercooled, whereas seeds cooled over a 4-day period to −12°C and then cooled at 3°C h−1 to−40°C did not display low temperature exotherms. Both differential thermal analysis and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy confirmed that imbibed canola seeds undergo freezing-induced desiccation at slow cooling rates. The freezing tolerance of imbibed canola seed (LT50 ) was determined by slowly cooling to −12°C for 48 h, followed with cooling at 3°C h−1 to −40°C, or by holding at a constant −6°C (LD50 ). For both tests, the loss in freezing tolerance of imbibed seeds was a function of time and temperature of imbibition. Freezing tolerance was rapidly lost after radicle emergence. Seeds imbibed in 100 μ M abscisic acid (ABA), particularly at 2°C, lost freezing tolerance at a slower rate compared with water-imbibed seeds. Seeds imbibed in water either at 23°C for 16 h, or 8°C for 6 days, or 2°C for 6 days were not germinable after storage at −6°C for 10 days. Seeds imbibed in ABA at 23°C for 24 h, or 8°C for 8 days, or 2°C for 15 days were highly germinable after 40 days at a constant −6°C. Desiccation injury induced at a high temperature (60°C), as with injury induced by freezing, was found to be a function of imbibition temperature and time. 相似文献

The influence of temperature on life-table parameters, fecundity and survivorship of the predatory ladybird, Stethorus gilvifrons , fed on Tetranychus urticae was determined at seven constant temperatures of 15°C, 20°C, 25°C, 28°C, 30°C, 35°C and 40°C. No development was observed at 40°C, thus being regarded as the threshold for the development of S. gilvifrons . The results indicate a significant decrease in male and female longevity with increasing temperature from 15°C to 35°C. The longest and shortest longevity were 18.40 and 12.75 days for males and 17.40 and 8.80 days for females, respectively. The intrinsic rate of natural increase ( r m ) and the net reproductive rate ( R 0 ) of S. gilvifrons linearly increased with increasing temperatures from 15°C to 35°C, while the mean generation time ( T ) and doubling time (DT) decreased linearly within this temperature range. The highest values of r m (0.240 females/female/day) and R 0 (59.27 females/female) and the lowest mean generation time (17.01 days) and DT (2.88 days) were recorded at 35°C. The maximum (185.50 eggs) and minimum (25.50 eggs) measurement of total fecundity was also recorded at 35°C and 15°C, respectively. The results indicate that temperature greatly affected fecundity, survivorship and life-table parameters of S. gilvifrons , and that 35°C is a suitable temperature for population growth of this predator. 相似文献

COLI-AEROGENES BACTERIA IN FARM WATER SUPPLIES 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
S. B. THOMAS PHYLLIS M. HOBSON R. G. DRUCE D. L. BOWEN R. G. JONES ELIN MACKENZIE W. L. R. VAUGHAN 《Journal of applied microbiology》1959,22(1):32-45
SUMMARY: A series of 825 cultures of coli-aerogenes bacteria isolated at 30° and a series of 735 cultures isolated at 37° from 645 samples of farm water supplies were classified according to the recommendations of the Coliform Sub-Committee of the Society for Applied Bacteriology (Report, 1949). Klebsiella constituted 50% of the cultures isolated at 30°, whereas Escherichia coli I was the dominant type, forming 57%, among the cultures isolated at 37°. It would thus appear that isolation at 30° is as selective for Klebsiella as isolation at 37° is for Escherichia . Coli-aerogenes organisms, mainly 37° negative strains of Citrobacter freundii I and K. cloacae , were found in waters of high sanitary quality derived from protected springs and wells; but the coli-aerogenes microflora of polluted water was dominated by E. coli I, which formed 43% of the isolates at 30° and 76% of those at 37°. The results for a series of fortnightly samples from 11 farm water supplies showed a marked seasonal variation in the incidence of different types isolated at 30°; E. coli I formed a higher proportion in summer than in winter, while 37° negative strains of Klebsiella and Citrobacter formed a higher proportion in winter than in summer. 相似文献
