Fimbrial haemagglutination by Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
The presence of filamentous appendages distinct from flagella was first discovered in electron microscope preparations by Anderson (1949) and Houwink and van Iterson (1950). Duguid, Smith, Dempster, and Edmunds (1955) confirmed the existence of these structures and suggested the name 'fimbriae' for them; others have called them 'cilia' (Pershina and Vasilieva, 1960) and 'pili' (Brinton, 1959). ...
متن کاملA haemagglutination and haemagglutination inhibition test for bluetongue virus.
Haemagglutination of bluetongue virus (BTV) was demonstrated for the first time by making use of a purified preparation of the virus. The reaction was found to be independent of variations in the pH, temperature, buffer system and origin of the erythrocytes used in the test. A haemagglutination inhibition test, subsequently developed, was demonstrated to be serotype specific. The storage of the...
متن کاملPlasminogen assay by a haemagglutination inhibition technique.
Formaldehyde or gluteraldehyde cells treated with tannic acid were coated with plasminogen. These cells are agglutinated by plasminogen antiserum and this reaction can be quantitatively inhibited by purified plasminogen, plasma, and euglobulin. Correlation between this haemagglutination assay and a caseinolytic method is good. The sensitivity of the technique is high and compares favourably wit...
متن کاملContamination of Tissue Cultures by Mycoplasmas
Mycoplasmas are the smallest and simplest self-replicating bacteria [1]. These microorganisms lack a peptidoglycan based rigid cell wall and thus are not susceptible to antibiotics, such as penicillin and its analogues, which are effective against most bacterial contaminants of cell cultures. The trivial name mycoplasma encompasses all species included in the class Mollicutes: i.e. the genera M...
متن کاملMycoplasmas and arthritis.
At least 13 mycoplasma species cause arthritis in animals. In some cases it remains chronic, and in particular Mycoplasma hyorhinis in swine and Mycoplasma synoviae in poultry clinically and histologically resemble rheumatoid arthritis in man. Of patients with serologically verified Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections 0.9% had arthritis. Usually it is mild, but may sometimes be the dominant clinic...
