Rhodotorula glutinis 22P when co-cultivated with Lactobacillus helveticus 12A in a whey ultrafiltrate synthesizes maximum cell mass and carotenoid concentrations (31.9 g/l and 8388 g/l, respectively) at 30°C. The change in the growth temperature conditions of both cultures influences the carotenogenesis by yeast and the proportion of individual pigments forming up the carotenoids. 相似文献

Background
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends nontargeted opt-out HIV screening in healthcare settings. Cost effectiveness is critical when considering potential screening methods. Our goal was to compare programmatic costs of nontargeted opt-out rapid HIV screening with physician-directed diagnostic rapid HIV testing in an urban emergency department (ED) as part of the Denver ED HIV Opt-Out Trial.Methods
This was a prospective cohort study nested in a larger quasi-experiment. Over 16 months, nontargeted rapid HIV screening (intervention) and diagnostic rapid HIV testing (control) were alternated in 4-month time blocks. During the intervention phase, patients were offered HIV testing using an opt-out approach during registration; during the control phase, physicians used a diagnostic approach to offer HIV testing to patients. Each method was fully integrated into ED operations. Direct program costs were determined using the perspective of the ED. Time-motion methodology was used to estimate personnel activity costs. Costs per patient newly-diagnosed with HIV infection by intervention phase, and incremental cost effectiveness ratios were calculated.Results
During the intervention phase, 28,043 eligible patients were included, 6,933 (25%) completed testing, and 15 (0.2%, 95% CI: 0.1%–0.4%) were newly-diagnosed with HIV infection. During the control phase, 29,925 eligible patients were included, 243 (0.8%) completed testing, and 4 (1.7%, 95% CI: 0.4%–4.2%) were newly-diagnosed with HIV infection. Total annualized costs for nontargeted screening were $148,997, whereas total annualized costs for diagnostic HIV testing were $31,355. The average costs per HIV diagnosis were $9,932 and $7,839, respectively. Nontargeted HIV screening identified 11 more HIV infections at an incremental cost of $10,693 per additional infection.Conclusions
Compared to diagnostic testing, nontargeted HIV screening was more costly but identified more HIV infections. More effective and less costly testing strategies may be required to improve the identification of patients with undiagnosed HIV infection in the ED. 相似文献3.

Ixodes ricinus is the main vector for important infectious diseases in both humans and in animals. Microsatellite loci were isolated from a dinucleotide‐enriched library made from I. ricinus sampled in Norway. Seventeen polymorphic microsatellites were further characterized among 24 individuals sampled from an island in the Oslofjord region. The number of observed alleles ranged from two to 17 and the observed heterozygosities between 0.10 and 0.83. Analysis of family materials gives evidence of non‐Mendelian inheritance of several of the characterized loci, among which most could be explained by presence of null alleles. 相似文献

Summary Chromosomes from 19 unrelated Southern Yugoslav families in which cystic fibrosis (CF) occurs were analysed for the presence
of the ΔF508 mutation, using polymerase chain reaction amplification followed by dot blot and polyacrylamide gel analysis.
Of the 38 CF chromosomes, 15 (39.5%) carry the ΔF508 deletion. Restriction fragment length polymorphism haplotypes for KM19/PstI, XV2c/TaqI and J3.11/PstI marker loci were determined and are compared for a total of 34 N and 37 CF chromosomes. 相似文献

Under intensive aeration (1.3 l/l min) the associated growth of Rhodotorula rubra GED2 and Lactobacillus casei subsp. casei in cheese whey ultrafiltrate (55 g lactose/l) proceeded effectively for both cultures with production of maximum carotenoids (12.4 mg/l culture fluid). For maximum amount of carotenoids synthesized in the cell, the yeast required more intensive aeration than the aeration needed for synthesis of maximum concentration of dry cells. Maximum concentration of carotenoids in the cell (0.49 mg/g dry cells) was registered with air flow rate at 1.3 l/l min, and of dry cells (27.0 g/l) at 1.0 l/l min. An important characteristic of carotenogenesis by Rhodotorula rubra GED2 + Lactobacillus casei subsp. casei was established--the intensive aeration (above 1.0 l/l min) stimulated beta-carotene synthesis (60% of total carotenoids). 相似文献

AIMs: The studies of the production of exopolysaccharides by lactose-negative yeast and a yogurt starter co-cultivated in a natural substrate containing lactose may be considered of interest because they reveal the possibilities for high-efficiency synthesis of biopolymers by mixed cultivation. METHODS AND RESULTS: The mixed culture Rhodotorula rubra GED10 + (Streptococcus thermophilus 13a + Lactobacillus bulgaricus 2-11) was cultivated in cheese whey ultrafiltrate (WU) (44.0 g lactose l(-1)) at initial pH 6.0, 28 degrees C, under intensive aeration (air-flow rate 1.0 l l(-1) min(-1), agitation 220 rev min(-1)) in a MBR AG fermentor. The mixed culture manifested the highest activity for synthesis of exopolysaccharides (19.3 g l(-1)) and cell mass (21.0 g l(-1)) at the 84th hour. The yogurt starter synthesized neutral exopolysaccharides, while the mixed culture yeast + yogurt starter produced acidic exopolysaccharides containing uronic acid (6%). The neutral sugar composition was identified as mannose, glucose, galactose, xylose and arabinose. Mannose dominated in the polymer composition (83%) that was produced only by the yeast (97%). CONCLUSIONS: Lactose in the WU can be effectively utilized by a co-culture of lactose-negative yeast-yogurt starter for synthesis of exopolysaccharides. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The present findings propose an alternative use of WU as a cost-effective carbohydrate substrate, and suggest that the lactose-negative yeast Rhodotorula rubra can have industrial application as producers of exopolysaccharides. 相似文献

Isolation and characterization of plasma membrane-associated cortical granules from sea urchin eggs 总被引:3,自引:6,他引:3 下载免费PDF全文
Cortical granules, which are specialized secretory organelles found in ova of many organisms, have been isolated from the eggs of the sea urchins Arbacia punctulata and Strongylocentrtus pupuratus by a simple, rapid procedure. Electron micropscope examination of cortical granules prepared by this procedure reveals that they are tightly attached to large segments of the plasma membrane and its associated vitelline layer. Further evidence that he cortical granules were associated with these cell surface layers was obtained by (125)I-labeling techniques. The cortical granule preparations were found to be rich in proteoesterase, which was purified 32-fold over that detected in a crude homogenate. Similarly, the specific radioactivity of a (125)I-labeled, surface glycoprotein was increased 40-fold. These facts, coupled with electron microscope observations, indicate the isolation procedure yields a preparation in which both the cortical granules and the plasma membrane-vitelline layer are purified to the same extent. Gel electrophoresis of the membrane-associated cortical granule preparation reveals the presence of at least eight polypeptides. The major polypeptide, which is a glycotprotein of apparent mol wt of 100,000, contains most of the radioactivity introduced by (125)I-labeling of the intact eggs. Lysis of the cortical granules is observed under hypotonic conditions, or under isotonic conditions if Ca(2+) ion is present. When lysis is under isotonic conditions is induced by addition of Ca(2+) ion, the electron-dense contents of the granules remain insoluble. In contrast, hypotonic lysis results in release of the contents of the granule in a soluble form. However, in both cases the (125)I-labeled glycoprotein remains insoluble, presumably because it is a component of either the plasma membrane or the vitelline layer. All these findings indicate that, using this purified preparation, it should be possible to carry out in vitro studies to better define some of the initial, surface-related events observed in vivo upon fertilization. 相似文献
