Salmonella enteritidis Serotype 501, 2, 3: z4, z24: -

Characteristics of a new Salmonella serotype, subgenus IV, are reported. Culture 5534-68 was recovered from the intestinal tract of Anolis biporcatus, an arboreal lizard found in deep forest tracts in Panama Province, Republic of Panama. The antigenic composition of this new serotype was found to be 50(1, 2, 3):z(4), z(24):-.     

A new Salmonella serovar S.III b 58:z10:z53:Rz50

A new Salmonella serovar S.III b 58:z10:z53:Rz50 was isolated from the water samples of Ashida river, Fukuyama city, Japan. Its antigenic structure is described.     

Mass spectrometry: m/z 1983-2008

While definitely not a new technology, mass spectrometry (MS) has seen incredible growth over the past 25 years. Mass spectrometry has rapidly evolved to the forefront of analytical techniques; its ability to analyze proteins is the major driving force in the field of proteomics. MS instrumentation has increased approximately 5-fold in sensitivity every three years. The level of performance that is achievable with MS today allows scientists to study proteins in ways that were inconceivable a quarter century ago. This review of the history of MS over the past 25 years is timely in that it encompasses two of the biggest developments, electrospray and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI), which have enabled many of the uses of this technology today.

NADH-Dependent Glutamat Synthase in Euglena gracilis z

Novel antioxidative phenylpropanoid-substituted tocopherol derivatives, prunusols A and B, were isolated from the leaf wax of Prunus grayana Maxim., and their structures were fully characterized by spectroscopic and synthetic methods. Prunusols A and B were found to be the conjugates of γ-tocopherol and p-coumaric acid, which are diastereoisomers of each other. They showed almost the same antioxidative activity as α-tocopherol in a water/alcohol system measured by thiocyanate and TBA methods.     

Glycolate excretion by air-grown Euglena graeilis z

In contrast to reported fact, the air-grown cells of Euglena gracilis z were found to excrete glycolate into the surrounding medium, when placed in an atmosphere of 100% O₂ under illumination at 20000 lux at the same rate of the 5% CO₂-grown cells, but with a lag phase of about 30 min. The lag was eliminated by lowering intracellular CO₂ concentration in the air-grown cells.This paper is the eighth in a series on the metabolism of glycolate in Euglena gracilis.
