Nitrate Utilization by the Diatom Skeletonema costatum
Nitrate uptake has been studied in nitrogen-deficient cells of the marine diatom Skektowema costatum. When these cells are incubated in the presence of nitrate, this ion is quickly taken up from the medium, and nitrite is excreted by the cells. Nitrite is excreted following classical saturation kineffcs, its rate being independent of nitrate concentration in the incubation medium for nitrate co...
متن کاملChlorophyll Turnover in Skeletonema costatum, a Marine Plankton Diatom.
[(3)H]- and delta-[(14)C]Aminolevulinic acids were incorporated into the chlorophylls of Skeletonema costatum, a marine plankton diatom. In the stationary phase of growth, the tetrapyrrole-based pigments reached steady-state labeling after 10 hours. Under conditions of exponential cell division and chlorophyll accumulation, (3)H was rapidly lost from the labeled chlorophylls and was replaced wi...
متن کاملRapid identification of Yersinia enterocolitica in blood by the 5' nuclease PCR assay.
Yersinia enterocolitica accounts for 50% of the clinical sepsis episodes caused by the transfusion of contaminated red blood cells. A 5' nuclease TaqMan PCR assay was developed to detect Y. enterocolitica in blood. Primers and a probe based on the nucleotide sequence of the 16S rRNA gene from Y. enterocolitica were designed. Whole-blood samples were spiked with various numbers of Y. enterocolit...
متن کاملDesigning surfaces that kill bacteria on contact.
Poly(4-vinyl-N-alkylpyridinium bromide) was covalently attached to glass slides to create a surface that kills airborne bacteria on contact. The antibacterial properties were assessed by spraying aqueous suspensions of bacterial cells on the surface, followed by air drying and counting the number of cells remaining viable (i.e., capable of growing colonies). Amino glass slides were acylated wit...
متن کاملDevelopment of a fluorogenic 5' nuclease PCR Assay for the detection of pathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica
In this report, we describe the development and evaluation of a 5' nuclease PCR assay for the detection of pathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica (YE). The assay targets the chromosomally encoded invasion gene ail. Three different primer/probe sets (TM1, TM2, and TM3) amplifying different, yet overlapping, regions of ail were examined for their specificity and sensitivity. The TM1 set displayed the...
