Translation mostly takes place between languages. As we know, there are intimate relations between languages and culture. Language and culture, like content and form, live upon and affect each other. As a cross—cultural event, translation is influenced largely by the culture in the source language. So it is vital to analysis the culture in the original language before we set about translating. ...

The effect of a number of physiological variables on the secretion of polysaccharide-degrading enzymes by culture-grown Colletotrichum lindemuthianum (Saccardo and Magnus) Scribner was determined. The number of spores used to inoculate cultures grown on isolated bean hypocotyl cell walls affects the time after inoculation at which enzyme secretion occurs, but has no significant effect on the ma...

Plant cell culture systems represent a potential renewable source of valuable medicinal compounds, flavors, fragrances, and colorants, which cannot be produced by microbial cells or chemical synthesis. Biotechnological applications of plant cell cultures presents the most updated reviews on current techniques in plant culture in the field. The evolving commercial importance of the secondary met...

Arachidonic acid (AA) is a precursor of biologically active prostaglandines and leukotrienes. The commercial source for AA at present is a fungus, but the recently discovered coccoid green alga, Parietochloris incisa comb. nov., in which over 90% of total AA is deposited in triacylglycerols, makes this species a potential candidate for commercial production of AA. We investigated the effect of ...
