Metabolic,physiological and kinetic aspects of the alcoholic fermentation of whey permeate by Kluyveromyces fragilis NRRL 665 and Kluyveromyces lactis NCYC 571

Optimum growth conditions for the fermentation of non-concentrated whey permeate by Kluyveromyces fragilis NRRL 665 have been defined. Use of 3.75 g yeast extract l^?1, a growth temperature of 38°C and a pH of 4.0 allowed a maximum productivity of 5.23 g ethanol l^?1 h^?1 in continuous culture with a yield 91% of theoretical. Complete batch fermentation of permeate with 100 g lactose l^?1 was possible with a maximum specific growth rate of 0.276 h^?1 without any change in ethanol yield. Fermentation of concentrated permeate resulted, however, in a general decrease of specific substrate consumption rate, demonstrated by the inability to completely convert an initial 90 or 150 g lactose l^?1 in continuous culture, even at dilution rates as low as 0.05 and 0.08 h^?1, respectively. The decrease could be related to substrate inhibition, to an increase in osmotic pressure caused by lactose and salts, and to ethanol inhibition of both alcohol and biomass yield. The decrease in specific productivity could be counterbalanced by use of high cell density cultures, obtained by cell recycle of K. fragilis. Fermentation of a non-concentrated permeáte at a dilution rate of 1 h^?1 resulted in a productivity of 22 g l^?1 h^?1 at 22 g ethanol l^?1. Cell recycle using flocculating Kluyveromyces lactis NCYC 571 was also tested. With this strain a productivity of 9.3 g l^?1 h^?1 at 45 g product l^?1 was attained at a dilution rate of 0.2 h^?1, with an initial lactose concentration of 95 g l^?1.

Detection of rapid induction kinetics with a new type of high-frequency modulated chlorophyll fluorometer

A newly developed modulation fluorometer is described which operates with 1 sec light pulses from a light-emitting diode (LED) at 100 KHz. Special amplification circuits assure a highly selective recording of pulse fluorescence signals against a vast background of non-modulated light. The system tolerates ratios of up to 1:10⁷ between measuring light and actinic light. Thus it is possible to measure the dark fluorescence yield and record the kinetics of light-induced changes. A high time resolution allows the recording of the rapid relaxation kinetic following a saturating single turnover flash. Examples of system performance are given. It is shown that following a flash the reoxidation kinetics of photosystem II acceptors are slowed down not only by the inhibitor DCMU, but by a number of other treatments as well. From a light intensity dependency of the induction kinetics the existence of two saturated intermediate levels (I₁ and I₂) is apparent, which indicates the removal of three distinct types of fluorescence quenching in the overall fluorescence rise from F₀ to F_max.Abbreviations Q_A and Q_B consecutive electron acceptors of photosystem II - PS II photosystem II - P 680 reaction center chlorophyll of photosystem II - F₀ minimum fluorescence yield following dark adaptation - F_max maximum fluorescence yield - DCMU 3-(3, 4-dichlorophenyl)-1, 1-dimethyl-urea - DCCD N,N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide - PQ plastoquinone - DAD diaminodurene Dedicated to Prof. L.N.M.

Antimicrobial effect of radiant catalytic ionization

The main purpose of micro-organisms elimination from the air and surfaces is to ensure microbiological safety in health care facilities or food production plants. Currently, many disinfection methods are used, both physical, chemical and, increasingly, biological. Scientists seek new solutions with high antimicrobial effectiveness (especially against the drug-resistant strains of bacteria), low production and operating costs, and, above all, the safety of patients and food consumers. The limitation of the methods used so far is primarily the micro-organisms acquire the resistance, mainly to antimicrobial agents. One of the new and alternative methods of disinfection is radiant catalytic ionization (RCI). RCI is an active method of air and surface purification. The technology proved high efficiency against viruses, Gram-positive and -negative bacteria, and fungi, both in the air and on surfaces (planktonic forms and biofilm). RCI has many advantages as well as some minor limitations. This overview summarizes the current knowledge about RCI technology.     

Effect of auxins on the formation of ubiquinone by tobacco plant cells in suspension culture

Ubiquinone (UQ) formation in BY-2 tobacco cells was especially promoted by a high concentration of 2,4-D. 2,4,5-T, MCP and NAA also promoted UQ formation in these cells. The UQ content in the cells cultured at high concentrations of 2,4-D was higher than that of controls throughout the culture period. The addition of 2,4-D at an early period in cell growth was very effective in promoting UQ formation, but addition at the stationary phase was ineffective. Cell growth was improved by adding phosphate to the medium but UQ content was decreased. UQ content decreased slowly during subculturing, whereas cell growth recovered gradually.     

Parameters Effects Evaluation of Microbial Strengthening of Sandy Soils in Mixing Experiments Using Taguchi Methodology

The effects of experimental parameters including soil type, curing duration, inoculum size, and biomass and nutrients concentration on soil strengthening due to calcite precipitation by Sporosarcina pasteurii PTCC 1645 were investigated. The laboratory-scale mixing experiments on remolded samples were designed by the Taguchi method. Soil type proved to be the most incorporating factor, followed by curing time and nutrient concentration. The main effect and the interactions of the parameters were presented and the optimal conditions were obtained. This suggests the importance of local conditions including soil type on any future large-scale, in situ application.     

大比例尺土壤保持服务制图分级方法研究

科学地编制生态系统服务空间分布图,有助于识别生态系统优先保护热点及空缺,能够为国土安全规划提供基础信息。但由于缺乏统一科学的生态系统服务分级方法,生态系统服务分布图的展示效果和制图效率都受到限制。不恰当的分级制图会误导决策者对生态系统服务空间分布特征的判断,增加生态保护决策的不确定性。以构建生态服务制图分级标准为目标,对我国6个典型县区的土壤保持服务数据展开1：25万比例尺制图分级案例研究。采用分级精度、面积均衡性、极差一致性、空间自相关一致性4个分级质量评价指标评价并比较了目前地图编制中常用的自然断点法、几何间隔法、累积比例法、等差法、分位数法5种分级算法的分级制图效果。结果表明,6个县区有相似的土壤保持服务分布特征：低值区覆盖面积大,高值区覆盖面积小。各县区土壤保持服务制图最优分级方法有差异：延庆区、丰满区最优分级方法为自然断点法;永靖县、天山区、安宁市最优分级方法为累积比例法;富阳区最优分级方法为几何间隔法。各分级方法中,累积比例法在6个县区综合制图效果最优或接近最优,适用性最好,能够较好的刻画各县区的土壤保持服务空间分布特征。本文提出的分级评价方法及其结果,可为生态系统土壤保持服务制图规范化和自动化提供科学依据。

Local cryostimulation acutely preserves maximum isometric handgrip strength following fatigue in young women

Several types of cryostimulation have been recently proposed to rapidly lower skin temperature therefore gaining a possible neuro/muscular recovery after strenuous exercise or, more generally, in sports. Local cryostimulation may be a viable and relatively portable tool to obtain physiological benefits in previously-efforted muscular districts. However, cohesive and standardized cryo-exposure protocols are lacking as well as the righteous procedure to efficaciously combine duration, treatments and temperature in relation to desirable effects on muscular strength. In this randomized-controlled study, fifty young women were tested for maximum isometric handgrip strength, before and after exhausting contractions.Following the fatiguing protocol, the intervention group (cryo, n = 25, 24.7 ± 2.5 years, BMI 21.7 ± 1.8 kg/m²) underwent a 6-min local cryostimulation (−160 °C) on the extensor-flexor muscles of the dominant arm, while control-matched peers sat rested in a thermo-neutral room (22 ± 0.5 °C). Handgrip tests were repeated at baseline (T0), after cryostimulation (T1), and 15 min after T1 (T2). Throughout the protocol, the AUC of the strength performance was significantly higher in the cryo- compared to control group (P = 0.006). In particular, following fatigue and cryostimulation, the cryo group preserved higher strength at T1 with respect to controls (26.8 ± 2.8 vs 23.9 ± 2.8 kg, Bonferroni's post-hoc, P < 0.01). Likewise, ventral and dorsal temperature, recorded with a thermal camera, were lower in cryo- than control group (P < 0.0001).In conclusion, a brief session of local cryostimulation may acutely preserve maximal isometric force in young women following a fatiguing protocol. These findings may have implications in orchestrating strategies of district muscular recovery.
