The study of the metabolism of cells by a method termed inhibition analysis (l-3) led to the initial proposal that the antibacterial index (4) is a function of the inhibited enzyme system which becomes the limiting factor for growth of the organism. It was further proposed that if the product of this enzyme system is supplied to the organism the analogue either becomes ineffective as a growth i...

Taste aversion studies have demonstrated that rats conditioned to avoid monosodium glutamate (MSG) with amiloride added to reduce the intensity of the sodium component of MSG taste, generalize this aversion to aspartic acid and to L-AP4, but not to ionotropic glutamate receptor agonists. That is, MSG, L-AP4 and aspartate have similar tastes to rats. However, conditioned taste aversion methods a...

equilibria of the reaction of molybdenum(vi) with l-aspartic acid (asp) and l- glutamic acid(glu) have been studied by spectrophotometric measurements in mixed solvent systems at an ionicstrength of 0.2 mol/dm3 sodium perchlorate, employed (15, 20, 25, 30± 0.1°c) at ph ranges of 3.2to 5.5 with a high ratio of ligand to metal. the stability constants of the complexes and theresulting free energy...

The aim of this research was the comparative study content amino acids in herb and tubers Stachys sieboldii. acid composition raw materials carried out using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). results obtained have shown that aerial parts plants investigated higher than underground organs. Free bound L-aspartic acid, L-proline, L-phenylalanine were present analyzed samples greatest ...

The metabolic pathway for the synthesis of guanidinosuccinic acid was studied in the rat. Labeled guanidinosuccinic acid was isolated from the urine of animals given L-[guanidino-14C]arginine intraperitoneally but did not appear in the urine after administration of D,L-[guanidino-14C]canavanine. Radioactive arginine and nonradioactive aspartic acid and arginine were infused in the isolated, per...

therefore, that the medium exerts no effect on•g traing•h . Sort and quantity of nitrogen sources None of those 10 strains could grow in the rmedium containing Lglutamlc acid, L-aspartic acid and L-methionlne (2). Upon examining the nitrogen requirement of about 60 wild Flexner type dysentery bacilli , even the most exacting strains of which were found to grow in the medium containing L-glutami...

Equilibria of the reaction of molybdenum(VI) with L-aspartic acid (Asp) and L- Glutamic acid(Glu) have been studied by spectrophotometric measurements in mixed solvent systems at an ionicstrength of 0.2 mol/dm3 sodium perchlorate, employed (15, 20, 25, 30± 0.1°C) at pH ranges of 3.2to 5.5 with a high ratio of ligand to metal. The stability constants of the complexes and theresulting free energy...

Epsilon poly-L-lysine (ε-PL) is a homo-biopolymer with approximately 25-30 L-lysine residues. It is a promising natural biopolymer widely used in food and pharmaceutical industry. The present work reports enhanced production of ε-PL with a novel producer Bacillus cereus using amino acids and TCA cycle intermediates in the fermentation medium. Among the various amino acids and TCA cycle intermed...
