Cellulase yields of 250 to 430 IU/g of cellulose were recorded in a new approach to solid-state fermentation of wheat straw with Trichoderma reesei QMY-1. This is an increase of ca. 72% compared with the yields (160 to 250 IU/g of cellulose) in liquid-state fermentation reported in the literature. High cellulase activity (16 to 17 IU/ml) per unit volume of enzyme broth and high yields of cellul...

In continuation of our work on Sudanese med icinal and aromatic plants , we have taken into cons ideration the search for plants with potential in s e c t p e s t management. Alcoholic extracts of ten species of medicinal plants , namely, Ageratum conyzoides (As teraceae), Alternanthera nodiflora (Amaranthaceae), Ambrosia maritima (As teraceae), Cardiospermum halicacabum (Sapindaceae), Eclipta ...

Serum obtained after immunization with an O18 polysaccharide-toxin A conjugate vaccine was evaluated for the estimation of protective levels of anti-O-specific lipopolysaccharide (LPS) immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody against bacteremia and death caused by a homologous serotype of Escherichia coli K1 strains. Passive transfer of rabbit serum conferred significant protection from a lethal E. coli...

B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and early diastolic transmitral velocity/tissue Doppler mitral annular velocity (E/Ea) both estimate left ventricular filling pressure, but have not been compared in the diagnosis of congestive heart failure (CHF). One hundred twenty-two hospital inpatients with suspected CHF underwent simultaneous clinical examination, BNP measurement, and comprehensive echo-Do...

Morphine administration during pregnancy causes several behavioral abnormalities in offspring animals. In the present study the effects of maternal morphine consumption on development of neural tube in Wistar rats (250-300 g) were investigated. Female rats (n = 8 were crossed with male rats and pregnant ones were treated with oral morphine (0.01, 0.05 and 0.1 mg/ml of water) until the 10th day ...

Sodium polyanethol sulfonate (SPS) at 500 microgram/ml, but not sodium amylosulfate (SAS) at 500 microgram/ml, precipitated egg white lysozyme (1 mg and 50 microgram of lysozyme per ml) as determined with the assay strain Micrococcus lysodeikticus ATCC 4698. Fresh and heat-inactivated (56 degrees C, 30 min) human serum (80%, vol/vol) killed M. lysodeikticus (10(4) bacteria per ml at zero time) ...
