III RESULTS OF TESTS FOR HAEMOLYSIS AND FOR OSMOTIC FRAGILITY OF RED BLOOD CELLS Osmotic Fragility
SYNOPSIS Nineteen patients with morphological abnormalities of the red blood cells are described, and these formed approximately 3 % of the total cases of cardiac valvular disease. In two patients the abnormal blood film developed after the insertion of an aortic and mitral valve prosthesis respectively, but in another two patients the abnormal blood film was corrected by aortic valve surgery. ...
متن کاملGlycine betaine fluxes in Lactobacillus plantarum during osmostasis and hyper- and hypo-osmotic shock.
Bacteria respond to changes in medium osmolarity by varying the concentrations of specific solutes in order to maintain constant turgor. The primary response of Lactobacillus plantarum to an osmotic upshock involves the accumulation of compatible solutes such as glycine betaine, proline, and glutamate. We have studied the osmotic regulation of glycine betaine transport in L. plantarum by measur...
متن کاملMechanism of osmotic activation of the quaternary ammonium compound transporter (QacT) of Lactobacillus plantarum.
The accumulation of quaternary ammonium compounds in Lactobacillus plantarum is mediated via a single transport system with a high affinity for glycine betaine (apparent Km of 18 microM) and carnitine and a low affinity for proline (apparent Km of 950 microM) and other analogues. Mutants defective in the uptake of glycine betaine were generated by UV irradiation and selected on the basis of res...
متن کاملCharacterization of Rhamnosidases from Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus acidophilus.
Lactobacilli are known to use plant materials as a food source. Many such materials are rich in rhamnose-containing polyphenols, and thus it can be anticipated that lactobacilli will contain rhamnosidases. Therefore, genome sequences of food-grade lactobacilli were screened for putative rhamnosidases. In the genome of Lactobacillus plantarum, two putative rhamnosidase genes (ram1(Lp) and ram2(L...
متن کاملAntibacterial Activity of Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus casei on Burkholderia cepacia Isolated from Imam Ali Hospital
Background: Nosocomial infections are the causes of the most common of morbidity and mortality, prolonged hospital stay, and increased hospital costs worldwide. Today probiotic bacteria, as antibacterial agents, attracted the attention of clinicians. The current study aimed at determining the antibacterial activity of Lactobacillus plantarum and L. casei species against Burkholderia cepacia iso...
