Mise en evidence de l'existence de sensilles chemorecepteurs sur les antennes d'un crustace mysidace cavernicole et de l'intervention de ces sensilles dans la detection d'un extrait de nourriture

The cavernicolous crustacean Antromysis juberthiei showed unexpected behavior when presented with food extract : it avoids the area of odor inflow. This avoidance reaction is reduced by removal of various combinations of antennae and disappears almost with bilateral removal of the first antennae (the aesthetasc-bearing antennules).     

Screening method for microorganisms producing L-aminoacids from D,L-5-monosubstituted hydantoins

Summary The ability of microorganisms to produce hydantoinase and L-N-carbamoylase could be established by an overlay assay. Enzyme producing strains form clear areas around their colonies caused by the cleavage of D,L-indolylmethylhydantoin. A second overlayer with a tryptophan-auxotroph yeast enables us to detect microorganisms which are able to produce L-tryptophan from D,L-indolylmethylhydantoin.
