Novel fungitoxicity assays for inhibition of germination-associated adhesion of Botrytis cinerea and Puccinia recondita spores.
Botrytis cinerea and Puccinia recondita spores adhere strongly to polystyrene microtiter plates coincident with germination. We developed assays for inhibition of spore adhesion in 96-well microtiter plates by using sulforhodamine B staining to quantify the adherent spores. In both organisms, fungicides that inhibited germination strongly inhibited spore adhesion, with 50% effective concentrati...
متن کاملThe Effects of Fungus Spores on Asthma
The spores have formed by fungi and these spores have developed characteristics that enable them to cope with the stresses of survival and disintegration. In the distribution of fungus spores in the atmosphere, it is important in the meteorological factors as well as the features of the fungus. The meteorological factors that play a role in the distribution of fungus spores are temperature, hum...
متن کاملAssessment of a rapid immunochromatographic assay for the detection of avian influenza viruses
Rapid spreading of the low pathogenic avian influenza virus (AIV) caused by the H9N2 subtype and the highly pathogenic AIV caused by H5N1 have caused serious economic losses in the poultry industries of Asia. Therefore, the early detection of AIVs is crucial for the control of the disease. In the present study, the applicability of a rapid immunochromatographic (RIC) assay, which specifically d...
متن کاملComparative and quantitative studies of fungitoxicity against fungal spores and mycelia.
In studies on the mode of action of antifuingal agents, it may be valuable to reveal the difference in drug sensitivity between fungal spores and mycelia. Various methods employed in the evaluation of antifungal substances do not necessarily apply to the solution of this problem. For the estimation of "sporostatic" activity of an agent, the inhibitory effect on the course of germination of spor...
متن کاملVero cell assay for rapid detection of Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin.
A rapid assay which measured the biological activity of Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin was developed. The method involved the rapid killing of Vero cells by enterotoxin produced by C. perfringens grown in Duncan and Strong sporulation medium. Serial dilutions of toxin were added to Vero cells either in suspension or grown as monolayers in wells of a 96-well cell tissue culture cluster plat...
