A number of properties of temperature-sensitive mutants in murein synthesis are described. The mutants grow at 30 C but lyse at 42 C. One mutant possesses a temperature-sensitive d-alanyl-d-alanine adding enzyme, has an impaired rate of murein synthesis in vivo at both 30 and 42 C, and contains elevated levels of uridine diphosphate-N-acetyl-muramyl-tripeptide (UDP-MurNAc-l-Ala-d-Glu-m-diaminop...

A new thermosensitive mutant of Escherichia coli deficient in cell division was isolated by means of membrane filtration after nitrosoguanidine mutagenesis. The mutant cells grow normally at 30 C but stop dividing immediately after shift to 42 C, resulting in multinucleated filaments lacking septa. The number of colony-forming units does not decrease for at least 6 hr at 42 C. The maximum lengt...

Infusion rates for atracurium were calculated from multiple bolus injection data for normothermic (38 degrees C; n = 4) and hyperthermic (42 degrees C; n = 14) dogs anesthetized with thiopental and oxymorphone while undergoing whole-body hyperthermia treatment. The calculated infusion rate for atracurium at 38 degrees C was 6.2 +/- 0.3 micrograms/kg/min and the calculated infusion rate at 42 de...

Streptococcus thermophilus is widely used in the dairy industry to produce fermented milk. Gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry–based metabolomics was discriminate different fermentation temperatures (37°C and 42°C) at 3 time points (F0: pH = 6.50 ± 0.02; F1: 5.20 F2: 4.60 0.02) during S. milk fermentation, differences of physical properties growth curves were also evaluated. Fermentati...

a total of 288 broiler chickens (1 d old) were used in a 42-d growth trial to study the effects of chicory (cichorium intybus) and nettle (urtica dioica) with or without multi-enzyme on growth performance, carcass traits, and biochemical parameters. the corn-soybean based control diet and 8 experimental diets were fed to each of 3 pens of chickens (12 chickens/pen). treatments were as follows: ...
