Summary We examined the transition from ectothermy to endothermy in nestling bank swallows (Riparia riparia) by measuring the peak metabolic response to cold (PMR) in groups of nestlings. Additionally aerobic capacity, as assessed by citrate synthase activity (CS), and contractile function, as assessed by myofibrillar ATPase activity (mATPase) were measured in the pectoralis and mixed leg muscles during development. During the first 65% of their growth (from 2–12 g) bank swallows do not increase their metabolic rate in response to cold (Fig. 1). Between 12 and 16 g the PMR increased from 4 to more than 10 ml O2 (g·h)–1. Citrate synthase activity increased throughout development, starting at 20 moles (min·g fresh mass)–1 in both tissues and increasing to 150 and 50 moles (min·g)–1 in the pectoralis and leg muscles, respectively (Fig. 5). The augmented aerobic capacity combined with large increases in muscle mass undoubtedly contributes to the improved thermoregulatory abilities of older nestlings. However, muscle mass and aerobic capacity increase continuously and do not show the sharp transition noted in PMR. In the leg muscle mATPase activity is constant throughout growth, but in the pectoralis muscle it undergoes an abrupt increase from 0.5 moles (min·mg myofibrillar protein)–1 in animals weighing less than 12 g to 0.9 moles (min·mg)–1 in nestlings weighing more than 15 g (Fig. 6). The similar pattern of development of PMR and mATPase suggests a critical role for muscle development in the transition to endothermy in this species.Abbreviations

Zusammenfassung Durch simultane visuelle Bewegungsreize, die von mehreren Beutetieren (z.B. Mehlkäferlarven) ausgehen, wird der Beutefang der Erdkröte (Bufo bufo L.) gehemmt. An diese Verhaltensheobaehtung anknüpfend, wurde die Abhängigkeit dieses inhibitorischen Umfeldeffektes von verschiedenen visuellen Reizparametern im Attrappen versuch quantitativ gemessen: Im frontalen Gesichtsfeld der Kröte rotierte vor dunklem Hintergrund eine weiße, rechteckige, 2,5 × 20° große Beuteattrappe (Zentralattrappe, z) mit dem Rechteckzentrum im Drehpunkt. Zusätzlich konnten mehrere Kreisscheiben von 5 bzw. 10° (Peripherattrappen, p) um die Zentralattrappe bewegt werden.Die Beutefangaktivität R
z [Beutefangreaktionen x min–1] auf die allein gebotene Zentralattrappe war bei einer Sehwinkelgeschwindigkeit v
s der distalen Attrappenkanten 10v
s30 [grad x see–1] maximal und sank für kleinere oder größere Winkelgeschwindigkeiten wieder ab.
Eine mit v
s=25 [grad x sec–1] allein bewegte Peripherattrappe löste maximale Beutefangaktivität R
p aus. Mit zunehmender Anzahl n
p simultan bewegter Peripherattrappen sank die Beutefangaktivität ab.Mehrere, um den gleichen Drehpunkt bewegte Peripherattrappen, deren Abstand untereinander
=10° betrug, blieben von der Kröte unbeantwortet. Sie bildeten ein inhibitorisches Umfeld und hemmten dadurch die Reaktion auf die gleichzeitig bewegte Zentralattrappe z. — Die im Simultanreizungsversuch gemessene Beutefangaktivität R
zp war abhängig vom Abstand
[grad] zwischen Zentralattrappe und Peripherattrappen (
: Kürzester Abstand zwischen z und p): Für
=10° war R
zp0 und stieg für
>10° an. — Kontrollversuche, die jeweils auf die Simultanreizung mit z allein folgten (R
z), ließen eine
-abhängige Nachhemmung erkennen. — Die hemmende Wirkung auf die Beantwortung von z war auch von der Sehwinkelgeschwindigkeit v
s der Peripherattrappen abhängig; sie war bei derjenigen Sehwinkelgeschwindigkeit (v
s=25 [grad × sec–1]) maximal, mit der die Zentralattrappe, allein geboten, maximale Beutefangaktivität auslöste; für v
sg25 [grad × sec–1] nahm die Hemmung wieder ab.Die Versuchsergebnisse lassen auf inhibitorische Verknüpfungen innerhalb des zentralen visuellen Systems schließen. Es wird vermutet, daß die Reiz-Verhaltens-reaktionsbeziehungen in den visuellen Simultanreizungsversuchen durch eine Art zentrale laterale Inhibition bestimmt werden.

Inhibitory effect of simultaneously moved prey dummies on the prey catching behaviour of the common toad (Bufo bufo L.)
Summary The prey catching behaviour of the toad (Bufo bufo L.) is generally inhibited by simultaneously visual moving stimuli caused by a group of prey animals (mealworms). According to this behavioural observation the dependence of this inhibitory effect on several visual parameters were quantitatively measured in dummy experiments: in the frontal visual field of the toad a white rectangular prey dummy of 2,5×20° (central dummy, z) was rotating in a centre against dark background. In addition several disks of 5 or 10° diameter (peripheral dummies, p) could simultaneously rotate around the central dummy (Figs. 1 and 7).The prey catching activity R z [catching reactions x min–1] released by rotation of only the central dummy z increased with increasing angular velocity v s of the stimulus distal edges, reaching a maximum for 10vs30 [degrees x sec–1] and decreasing for v s>30 [degrees x sec–1] (Fig. 5).A single peripheral dummy p, moved at v s=25 [degrees x sec–1], released maximal catching activity R p. The activity R p decreased with the increasing number n p of simultaneously offered dummies (Fig. 6).The prey catching behaviour of the toad was inhibited, when several peripheral dummies p were moved around the centre with a distance =10° from each other. They caused an inhibitory field and they also inhibited the response to a simultaneously moved central dummy z. The prey catching activity, measured in experiments in which z and p rotated simultaneously, depends on the distance [degrees] between z and p ( being the shortest distance between z and p). For =10°, R zp was zero; R zp increased for >10° (Figs. 9 and 10). — Control experiments carried out with z allone — after having applied the simultaneous stimulation — showed a - dependent after-inhibition (Fig. 9). — The inhibitory effect on the response to z also depended on the angular velocity v s of p; the inhibition was at a maximum for v s25 [degrees x sec–1], and it decreased for v s25 [degrees x sec–1] (Fig. 11).The experimental results suggest inhibitory interactions within the central visual system. It is supposed that the relation between stimulus and behavioural reaction in simultaneous stimulating experiments results from some kind of central nervous lateral inhibition.

Summary Oxygen binding properties of the hemocyanin-containing blood ofBuccinum undatum were examined in vitro and in vivo under normoxic (
150 mmHg) and hypoxic (
50 mmHg) conditions at 10°C. Blood pH and
showed a decrease in vivo under hypoxic conditions. Oxygen uptake at high water
, was about 18 ml O2/kg·h (wet weight) and the critical oxygen tension between 25 and 50 mm Hg. In vitro the O2 binding to hemocyanin showedn-values independent of pH, while both O2 affinity and oxygen carrying capacity were strongly pH dependent. Oxygen affinity increased below pH=8.1 and thus showed a pronounced reversed Bohr shift in the physiological pH range (7.5<pH<8.1). The oxygen carrying capacity similarly increased markedly with falling pH in the physiological pH range (reversed Root shift). Astrup titration curves showed a metabolic and respiratory acidosis under hypoxic conditions (
50 mm Hg). The role of hemocyanin in the transport of oxygen in relation to ambient O2 availability is discussed. 相似文献

Summary Three yeasts of the genus Candida (Candida intermedia, candida lipolytica and Candida tropicalis) were cultivated batchwise on three different carbon sources: glucose, acetate, and hexadecane. Growth curves, oxygen uptake rates, CO2 evolution rates and the amount of oxygen required for biomass production were determined. The data were compared and discussed from the point of maximum specific growth rate, maximum oxygen uptake rate, carbon conversion into CO2 and biomass, consumption of oxygen and available energy for cell synthesis. The results indicated a relationship between m
m, Ys, YO, and for different carbon sources. YO and were in the same order of magnitude for acetate (0.58 and 0.38 respectively) and hexadecane (0.45 and 0.40 respectively). These values were remarkably lower than those for glucose (1.26 and 0.54 respectively).Symbols av e–

Methylaspartase (EC 4.3.1.2) was purified 20fold in 35% yield from Fusobacterium varium, an obligate anaerobe. The purification steps included heat treatment, fractional precipitation with ammonium sulfate and ethanol, gel filtration, and ion exchange chromatography on DEAESepharose. The enzyme is dimeric, consisting of two identical 46 kDa subunits, and requires Mg2+ (Km = 0.27 ± 0.01 mM) and K+ (Km = 3.3 ± 0.8 mM) for maximum activity. Methylaspartasecatalyzed addition of ammonia to mesaconate yielded two diastereomeric amino acids, identified by HPLC as (2S,3S)3methylaspartate (major product) and (2S,3R)3methylaspartate (minor product). Optimal activity for the deamination of (2S,3S)3methylaspartate (Km = 0.51 ± 0.04 mM) was observed at pH 9.7. The Nterminal protein sequence (30 residues) of the F. varium enzyme is 83% identical to the corresponding sequence of the clostridial enzyme. 相似文献

Summary The genetic behaviour of a human serum -lipoprotein factor, called Ag(a1), was studied by agar micro-diffusion technique, utilizing an antibody detected in the serum from a transfused thalassemia patient. It behaves as an inherited, dominant, autosomal character, with complete penetrance at birth. It is controlled by a gene
and is closely linked to the Ag

and Ag

gene in a Milan population was found to be 0,43, and in a Berne population was 0,46. The frequencies of the four possible gene combinations in the sample group from Milan were: Ag

Summary Oxygen consumption
was measured at rest and during spontaneous activity at body temperatures of 25 and 35°C in 14 fasting Savanna monitor lizards,Varanus exanthematicus ranging in weight from 172 to 7500 g. The allometric relationship between metabolic rate at 25°C and body weight (W) is given by:
(ml O2 STPD·g–1·hr–1)=0.88W
–0.43 (Fig. 2). Although statistical comparisons are equivocal, this intraspecific size dependence exceeds that reported for interspecific comparisons among reptiles and other vertebrate groups (Fig 3). A reproducible diurnal pattern of activity was observed in undisturbed animals with minimum values of
between 2400 and 0800 h (Fig. 1). Spontaneous activity and
generally reached peak values between 1200 and 2000 hrs. The average ratio of active aerobic metabolic rate (AMR) to minimum (standard) aerobic metabolic rate (SMR) was 8.2. This voluntary AMR/SMR inVaranus exceeds the AMR/SMR for most reptiles stimulated to exhaustion. The high aerobic capacity is consistent with other evidence for efficient exchange and transport of respiratory gases inV. exanthematicus; e.g., low or absent intracardiac shunt flow resulting in high arterial saturation and low ventilation
and perfusion
requirements. 相似文献

The effect of severe acute hypoxia (fractional concentration of inspired oxygen equalled 0.104) was studied in nine male subjects performing an incremental exercise test. For power outputs over 125 W, all the subjects in a state of hypoxia showed a decrease in oxygen consumption (
O2) relative to exercise intensity compared with normoxia (P < 0.05). This would suggest an increased anaerobic metabolism as an energy source during hypoxic exercise. During submaximal exercise, for a given
O2, higher blood lactate concentrations were found in hypoxia than in normoxia (P < 0.05). In consequence, the onset of blood lactate accumulation (OBLA) was shifted to a lower
O2 (
O2 1.77 l·min–1 in hypoxia vs 3.10 l·min–1 in normoxia). Lactate concentration increases relative to minute ventilation (
E) responses were significantly higher during hypoxia than in normoxia (P < 0.05). At OBLA,
E during hypoxia was 25% lower than in the normoxic test. This study would suggest that in hypoxia subjects are able to use an increased anaerobic metabolism to maintain exercise performance. 相似文献

Summary Rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) were exposed to acidic soft water (pHin4.2–6.3) in the presence (93 g·l–1) or absence of Al. Fish were fitted with latex masks and opercular catheters to measure ventilation
, pH changes at the gills, O2 consumption
, ammonia excretion
, and Al extraction. During 2–3-h exposures,
was generally higher in Al-exposed fish over the pHin range 4.7–6.3. Alkalinization of expired water was about 0.3 pH units less in Al-exposed fish than in acid-only exposed fish at pHin 4.5–5.2, an effect attributable to both increased
and to buffering by Al. During 44-h exposures to pHin 5.2 and 4.8 plus Al,
increased greatly and expired water pH (pHex) decreased with time. There was a small increase in
over 44 h at pH 4.4 plus Al, and no changes in pHex. In contrast, during 44-h exposures to pH 5.2, 4.8, and 4.4 in the absence of Al, such changes were much smaller or absent. During both short- and longerterm exposures, measured Al accumulation on the gills was only 5–18% of that calculated from cumulative Al extraction from the water, suggesting considerable sloughing of Al. In free-swimming trout, gill Al accumulation was greatest during exposure (2h) to Al at pH 5.2, lower at pH 4.8, and least at pH 4.4 and 4.0. Our results suggest that Al deposition occurs at the gills, causing respiratory and ionoregulatory toxicity, because the pH in the branchial micro-environment is raised above that in the acidic inspired soft water. Higher pH at fish gills may result in Al precipitation due to loss of solubility, or Al accumulation because of shifts in Al species to Al-hydroxide forms which more readily adsorb to the gills.Abbreviations

Summary Theoretical studies on the optimal numbers of components in mixtures (for example multiclonal varieties or mixtures of lines) have been performed according to phenotypic yield stability (measured by the parameter variance). For each component i, i = 1, 2,..., n, a parameter ui with 0 ui 1 has been introduced reflecting the different survival and yielding ability of the components. For the stochastic analysis the mean of each ui is denoted by u
1 and its variance by
i
2
For the character total yield the phenotypic variance V can be explicitly expressed dependent on 1) the number n of components in the mixture, 2) the mean
of the
i
2
3) the variance of the
i
2
4) the ratio
and 5) the ratio
i
2
/2 where denotes the mean of the u
i and
u
2
is the variance of the u
j. According to the dependence of the phenotypic stability on these factors some conclusions can be easily derived from this V-formula. Furthermore, two different approaches for a calculation of necessary or optimal numbers of components using the phenotypic variance V are discussed: A. Determination of optimal numbers in the sense that a continued increase of the number of components brings about no further significant effect according to stability. B. A reduction of b % of the number of components but nevertheless an unchanged stability can be realized by an increase of the mean of the u
i by 1% (with
and
u
2
assumed to be unchanged). Numerical results on n (from A) and 1 (from B) are given. Computing the coefficient of variation v for the character total yield and solving for the number n of components one obtains an explicit expression for n dependent on v and the factors 2.-5. mentioned above. In the special case of equal variances,
i
2
=
o
2
for each i, the number n depends on v, x = (0/)2 and y = (u/)2. Detailed numerical results for n = n (v, x, y) are given. For x 1 and y 1 one obtains n = 9, 20 and 79 for v = 0.30, 0.20 and 0.10, respectively while for x 1 and arbitrary y-values the results are n = 11, 24 and 95.This publication is an extended version of a lecture given at the 1984-EUCARPIA meeting (Section Biometrics in Plant Breeding) in Stuttgart-Hohenheim (Federal Republic of Germany) 相似文献

In a randomly selected sample of 88 men and 115 women, aged 23–27 years from Denmark, maximal oxygen uptake (
O2max), maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVC) in four muscle groups and physical activity were studied. The
O2max was 48.0 ml · min–1 kg–1 and 39.6 ml · min–1 · kg–1 for the men and the women, respectively. The MVC was 10% lower than in a comparable group of Danes of the same age and height studied 35 years ago. Only in men was sports activity directly related to
O2max (ml · min–1 · kg–1; r=0.31, P<0.01). The MVC of the knee extensors was related to
O2max in the men (r=0.31, P<0.01), but there was no relationship between the other measurements of MVC and
O2max. In the women
O2max (ml · min–1 · kg–1) was only related to body size, i.e. body mass index, percentage body fat and body mass [(r= –0.47, –0.48 (both P<0.001) and –0.34. (P<0.01), respectively)]. There were differences in
O2max in the men, according to education and occupation. Blue collar workers and subjects attending vocational or trade schools in 1983 had lower
O2max and more of them were physically inactive. In the women differences were also found, but there was no clear pattern among the groups. More of the women participated regularly in sports activity, but more of the men were very active compared to the women. 相似文献

The cerebrosides were first isolated by Thudicum in 1874 and the structures were established by Carteret al. in 1950 (for review, see [2]). In 1961 Shapiro and Flowers [3] reported the first total synthesis of a cerebroside1 (Fig. 1) which was identified with the natural sample, only through comparison of their i.r. data. In order to confirm the absolute configuration at C-2 of natural cerebroside1, we describe here an unambiguous synthesis of two stereoisomeric cerebrosides1 and2, and found that the1H-NMR spectra of the synthetic1 (Fig. 2) was completely identical with that of the natural cerebroside reported recently by Dabrowskiet al. [4].In planning the synthetic route, the target structures1 and2 were disconnected at the dotted lines to give three key synthetic intermediates3, 4 and5 or6 (Fig. 1).Abbreviations Bu

Summary Several ,-unsaturated and aromatic aldehydes were evaluated for antimicrobial activity usingMycobacterium bovis as the test strain. Activity of most of the compounds was determined in the presence and absence of 2% glutaraldehyde. Several compounds highly active against this organism, e.g. 2-pentenal, benzaldehyde, ando-phthalaldehyde showed rapid kill of >105 CFU ml–1 in 5 min. Activity of ,-unsaturated compounds substituted in the 1 position showed increasing activity with increasing chain length. Of the aromatic aldehydes tested, benzaldehyde andp-dimethylamino benzaldehyde showed little activity alone, but when combined with 2% glutaraldehyde showed increased activity. Substituents added to the benzaldehyde ring (nitro, chloro, methyl, and methoxy) all detracted from the synergism, but still showed increased activity over the activity of 2% glutaraldehyde. The same affect was noted with disubstituted benzaldehyde compounds but not with substitutedo-phthaladehyde (2-formylformaldehyde). 相似文献

The effects of analogs of diadenosine 5,5-p1,p4-tetraphosphate (Ap4A) were examined on the ADP-ribosylation reaction of histone Hl catalysed by purified bovine thymus poly(ADP-ribose)transferase. Among the compounds tested, Ap4A and ApCH2PPPA were shown to be the most efficient inhibitors of the enzyme. From kinetic studies of their action, it appears that Ap4A and ApCH2pppA might be mixed type inhibitors.Abbreviations ADP-ribose

Human λ light chain locus: Organization and DNA sequences of three genomicJ regions 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Evidence for the genomic organization of human lambda light chain joining (J) region gene segments is presented. A mouse J probe was used in Southern hybridizations to localize joining region sequences in a cosmid clone containing the genomic cluster of six human lambda constant (C) region gene segments. The results of these hybridizations suggest the presence of at least one J gene segment upstream from each constant region gene segment. The DNA sequences indicate that the human JI, J2, and J3 gene segments have consensus nonamer and heptamer sequences, proposed to be involved in V-J joining, are capable of encoding the known amino acid sequences for the respective J peptides, and have a sequence which could give functional RNA splice site at the end of their coding regions. Our data show that a single functional J is located 1.3 or 1.6 kb upstream of each of the C gene segments known to encode the Mcg, Kern– Oz–, and Kern–Oz+ isotypes. Therefore, the gene organization of this region of the human lambda locus is J1 CI -J2C2-J3C3. The DNA sequences ofJ

2, andJ
3 presented in this paper establish that a singleJ
gene segment precedes each expressed C gene segment, and support a model for the evolution of the human JC clusters where JICI andJ2C2-J3C3. arose from different ancestral JC units. 相似文献

Intermittent drainage of rice fields isdiscussed as an option to mitigate emission ofCH4, an important greenhouse gas. HoweverN2O, a potentially more effective greenhouse gas,may be emitted during the aeration phase. Therefore,the metabolism of NO, N2O, NH
,NO
and NO
and the kinetics ofCH4 oxidation were measured after aeration ofmethanogenic rice field soil. Before aeration, thesoil contained NH
in relatively highconcentrations (about 4 mM), while NO
andNO
were almost undetectable. Immediatelyafter aeration both NO and N2O were produced withrates of about 15 pmol h-1 gdw-1 and 5 pmolh-1 gdw-1, respectively. Simultaneously,NH
decreased while NO
accumulated. Later on, NO
was depletedwhile NO
concentrations increased.Characteristic phases of nitrogen turnover wereassociated with the activities of ammonium oxidizers,nitrite oxidizers and denitrifiers. Oxidation ofNH
and production of NO and N2O wereinhibited by 10 Pa acetylene demonstrating thatnitrification was obligatory for the initiation ofnitrogen turnover and production of NO and N2O.Ammonium oxidation was not limited by the availableNH
and thus, concomittant production of NOand N2O was not stimulated by addition ofNH
. However, addition of NO
stimulated production of NO and N2O in bothanoxic and aerated rice soil slurries. In this case,10 Pa acetylene did not inhibit the production of NOand N2O demonstrating that it was due todenitrification which was obviously limited by theavailability of NO
. In the aerated soilslurries CH4 was only oxidized if present atelevated concentrations >50 ppmv CH4). Atatmospheric CH4 concentrations (1.7 ppmv)CH4 was not consumed, but was even slightly produced.CH4 oxidation activity increased afterpreincubation at 20% CH4, and then CH4was also oxidized at atmospheric concentrations. CH4oxidation kinetics exhibited sigmoid characteristicsat low CH4 concentrations presumably because ofinhibition of CH4 oxidation by NH

Summary The cellular mechanism of K-stimulated Cl transport in locust hindgut was studied using double-barrelled ionsensitive microelectrodes and electrophysiological techniques. Steady-state net electrochemical potentials for Cl and K and the conductances of apical and basal membranes and paracellular pathway were determined under control conditions, during exposure to 1mm cAMP, and following ion substitutions. Under control open-circuit conditions, intracellular Cl activity (a
Cl
c
) was 3.5 times that predicted for passive equilibrium across the apical membrane. The net electrochemical potential opposing Cl entry from the mucosal side
increased by 50% during cAMP stimulation of transepithelial Cl absorption whereas the net electrochemical potential favoring Cl exit across the basal membrane
was unchanged. No correlation was observed between
and the net electrochemical potential across the apical membrane for Na. The net electrochemical potential favoring K entry across the apical membrane
was negligible underI
sc conditions when Cl transport rate was approximately 10 eq cm–2 hr–1. Locust rectal cells showed electrical and dye coupling. The results also indicate that most transepithelial diffusion of ions is transcellular and that epithelial tightness effectively increases during exposure to cAMP becauseR
a andR
b both decrease, by 80% whileR
j is unchanged. The cAMP-induced R
b was abolished in Cl-free saline whereas R
a was insensitive to Cl removal, but was blocked by removing K from the saline. Based on these findings, our model for Cl absorption in locust hindgut features i) an active entry step for Cl at the apical membrane which is stimulated by cAMP and by low levels of K on the mucosal side, but is not energized by
or
a large cAMP-stimulated Cl conductance in the basal membrane and a similar cAMP-stimulated K conductance in the apical membrane. cAMP dose-response curves are similar for the stimulation of active Cl absorption and Cl-independent (i. e. K) conductance, indicating that cAMP exerts dual control over active Cl transport and counter-ion permeability. 相似文献

Summary Liquid-phase volumetric oxygen transfer coefficients were evaluated in a bubble column containing yeast suspensions, using the instationary oxygen absorption method and a polarographic oxygen electrode. The electrode time lag was found to be independent of both the system studied and the operating conditions. The volumetric oxygen mass transfer coefficients k
L
a could be reasonably predicted by calculating k
L from the equation derived by Bhavaraju et al. or the empirical equation of Calderbank and Moo-Young and a from the experimental gas hold-up values.Nomenclature

The mechanism of uptake of water-insoluble -sitosterol by a newly isolated strain of Arthrobacter
simplex SS-7 was studied. The production of an extracellular sterol-pseudosolubilizing protein during growth of A. simplex on -sitosterol was demonstrated by isolating the factor from the cell-free supernatant and its subsequent purification by Sephadex G-150 column chromatography. The M
r of the purified sterol-pseudosolubilizing protein determined by SDS–PAGE was 19kDa. The rate of sterol pseudosolubilization (5.2×10–3g l–1h–1) could not adequately account for the rate of sterol uptake (72×10–3g l–1h–1) and the specific growth rate (56×10–3 h–1). However in the unfavourable growth condition, when the cells were treated with sodium azide at the level of 30–60% of MIC, the sterol pseudosolubilization accounted for nearly 74% of the total growth containing 96% free cells. Cellular adherence to substrate particles was found to play an active role in the normal growth of the strain on -sitosterol. Unlike sodium acetate-grown cells, whose surface activity was negligible (60mNm–1), the sterol-grown cells had strong surface activity (40mNm–1). The high lipid content and long chain fatty acids in the cell-wall of -sitosterol-grown cells probably contribute to the high sterol adherence activity of the cells. 相似文献
