Abstract: | Sporulation of oocysts of E. bovis was not inhibited by 0.1 M solutions of a number of salts, by oxidizing agents, by such enzyme inhibitors as fluoride, iodoacetate, ferricyanide, and arsenate, and by 1 M solutions of mineral acids and bases. Until further information is available it is logical to assume this is due to a failure of the ions to penetrate the oocyst wall.Phenol, formaldehyde, formic acid, methanol, ethanol, mercuric chloride, iodine, and ammonium hydroxide inhibited sporulation, apparently by denaturation of the proteinaceous materials. The inhibiting effect of both cyanide and azide suggests the presence of cytochrome oxidase or other cytochrome system in the sporulating oocyst. An oxidative phosphorylation system is indicated by the inhibition of sporulation by 2,4-dinitrophenol.Oocysts did not sporulate under anaerobic conditions even when such oxidizing agents as potassium dichromate and methylene blue were added. An oxygen tension of as low as 15 mm of Hg. in the atmosphere above the suspension of oocysts was sufficient for sporulation.An inhibition of sporulation in solutions saturated with carbon dioxide and carbonate ions suggests that release of CO2 must accompany sporulation. |
