A simple and accurate technique for the determination of the heat resistance of spores is described. The technique combines a modified capillary tube method with a solid heating block. The come-up time of spore suspensions was found to be short and simple and accurate technique is suggested for the correction of the come-up times. Experimental results are presented for the destruction of spores of Bacillus stearothermophilus at 120 which indicates the accuracy and reproducibility of the new method. 相似文献

Effect of simultaneous application of heat and pressure on the survival of bacterial spores 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
C.G. MALLIDIS AND D. DRIZOU. 1991. The effect of simultaneous application of moderate hydrostatic pressure (10–300 atm) and heat on the survival of the Bacillus stearothermophilus spores in a flow-through system was investigated. A high heterogeneity of the sensitization of spores to heat by pressure was found. A higher degree of reduction of heat resistance was observed at the low than at the high temperatures tested. The simultaneous application of moderate pressure and heat can not be applied for the preservation of liquid foods due to the extreme heterogeneity of spore sensitization to heat by pressure. 相似文献

Relation of the heat resistance of bacterial spores to chemical composition and structure I. Relation to core components 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
The relation between heat resistance characteristics and the composition of the bacterial spores was studied in five strains of Bacillus stearothermophilus. A relationship was found to exist between the dipicolinic acid (Dpa) and calcium content of the spore and the heat resistance characteristics. The stability of the Dpa chelates was also significantly related to heat resistance. 相似文献

Aim
To examine the relationship between retinal ganglion cell loss and changes in the inner nuclear layer (INL) in optic neuritis (ON).Methods
36 multiple sclerosis (MS) patients with a history of ON and 36 age and sex-matched controls underwent Optical Coherence Tomography. The paramacular retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), combined ganglion cell and inner plexiform layers (GCL/IPL) and inner nuclear layer (INL) thickness were measured at 36 points around the fovea. To remove inter-subject variability, the difference in thickness of each layer between the ON and fellow eye of each patient was calculated. A topographic analysis was conducted.Results
The INL of the ON patients was thicker than the controls (42.9µm versus 39.6µm, p=0.002). ON patients also had a thinner RNFL (27.8µm versus 32.2µm, p<0.001) and GCL/IPL (69.3µm versus 98.1µm, p<0.001). Among the controls, there was no correlation between RNFL and GCL/IPL as well as RNFL and INL, but a positive correlation was seen between GCL/IPL and INL (r=0.65, p<0.001). In the ON group, there was a positive correlation between RNFL and GCL/IPL (r=0.80, p<0.001) but a negative correlation between RNFL and INL (r=-0.61, p<0.001) as well as GCL/IPL and INL (r=-0.44, p=0.007). The negative correlation between GCL/IPL and INL strengthened in the ON group when inter-subject variability was removed (r=-0.75, p<0.001). Microcysts within the INL were present in 5 ON patients, mainly in the superior and infero-nasal paramacular regions. While patients with microcysts lay at the far end of the correlation curve between GCL/IPL and INL (i.e. larger INL and smaller GCL/IPL compared to other patients), their exclusion did not affect the correlation (r= -0.76, p<0.001).Conclusions
INL enlargement in MS-related ON is associated with the severity of GCL loss. This is a continuous relationship and patients with INL microcysts may represent the extreme end of the scale. 相似文献6.

Lysine is one of the most limiting amino acids in plants and its biosynthesis is carefully regulated through inhibition of the first committed step in the pathway catalyzed by dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHDPS). This is mediated via a feedback mechanism involving the binding of lysine to the allosteric cleft of DHDPS. However, the precise allosteric mechanism is yet to be defined. We present a thorough enzyme kinetic and thermodynamic analysis of lysine inhibition of DHDPS from the common grapevine, Vitis vinifera (Vv). Our studies demonstrate that lysine binding is both tight (relative to bacterial DHDPS orthologs) and cooperative. The crystal structure of the enzyme bound to lysine (2.4 Å) identifies the allosteric binding site and clearly shows a conformational change of several residues within the allosteric and active sites. Molecular dynamics simulations comparing the lysine-bound (PDB ID 4HNN) and lysine free (PDB ID 3TUU) structures show that Tyr132, a key catalytic site residue, undergoes significant rotational motion upon lysine binding. This suggests proton relay through the catalytic triad is attenuated in the presence of lysine. Our study reveals for the first time the structural mechanism for allosteric inhibition of DHDPS from the common grapevine. 相似文献

Glucocorticoid-induced skeletal muscle atrophy is associated with upregulation of myostatin gene expression 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The mechanisms by which excessive glucocorticoids cause muscular atrophy remain unclear. We previously demonstrated that dexamethasone increases the expression of myostatin, a negative regulator of skeletal muscle mass, in vitro. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that dexamethasone-induced muscle loss is associated with increased myostatin expression in vivo. Daily administration (60, 600, 1,200 micro g/kg body wt) of dexamethasone for 5 days resulted in rapid, dose-dependent loss of body weight (-4.0, -13.4, -17.2%, respectively, P < 0.05 for each comparison), and muscle atrophy (6.3, 15.0, 16.6% below controls, respectively). These changes were associated with dose-dependent, marked induction of intramuscular myostatin mRNA (66.3, 450, 527.6% increase above controls, P < 0.05 for each comparison) and protein expression (0.0, 260.5, 318.4% increase above controls, P < 0.05). We found that the effect of dexamethasone on body weight and muscle loss and upregulation of intramuscular myostatin expression was time dependent. When dexamethasone treatment (600 micro g. kg-1. day-1) was extended from 5 to 10 days, the rate of body weight loss was markedly reduced to approximately 2% within this extended period. The concentrations of intramuscular myosin heavy chain type II in dexamethasone-treated rats were significantly lower (-43% after 5-day treatment, -14% after 10-day treatment) than their respective corresponding controls. The intramuscular myostatin concentration in rats treated with dexamethasone for 10 days returned to basal level. Concurrent treatment with RU-486 blocked dexamethasone-induced myostatin expression and significantly attenuated body loss and muscle atrophy. We propose that dexamethasone-induced muscle loss is mediated, at least in part, by the upregulation of myostatin expression through a glucocorticoid receptor-mediated pathway. 相似文献
