Radiometric measurement of metabolic activity of Mycobacterium lepraemurium.
A sensitive and nondestructive radiometric method has been applied to the detection of metabolism of Mycobacterium lepraemurium, as a model for the study of the metabolism and substrate requirements of M. leprae. The method is based on the measurement of the (14)CO(2) produced through the bacterial conversion of [U-(14)C]acetate or [U-(14)C]glycerol by 7 x 10(9) bacteria suspended in 10 ml of e...
متن کاملRadiometric studies of Mycobacterium lepraemurium.
The radiometric method has been applied for studying the metabolism of M. lepraemurium and the conditions which might force or inhibit its metabolic activity in vitro. These organisms assimilate and oxidize (U-14C) glycerol, and (U-14C) acetate, but are unable to oxidize (U-14C) glucose, (U-14C) pyruvate, (U-14C) glycine and 14C-formate. When incubated at 30 degrees C M. lepraemurium oxidizes (...
متن کاملFatty acid synthesizing enzyme activity of cultured Mycobacterium lepraemurium.
In comparing the specific activity of enzymes pertaining to the biosynthesis of fatty acids in crude extracts of cultivated M. lepraemurium and M. smegmatis, it was found that: 1. The activity of acetyl CoA carboxylase of the former organism was undetectable and that of de novo fatty acid synthetase was too weak to measure exactly, under the condition used, whereas both activities of the latter...
متن کاملcomparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.
heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...
15 صفحه اولSuppression of immunity to Mycobacterium lepraemurium infection.
After injection of 10(8) live Mycobacterium lepraemurium (MLM) into the left hind footpad of mice, there is development of local swelling attributable to a granuloma of the cell-mediated immunity type. Concomitant intravenous inoculation of live MLM delays and may even suppress footpad swelling, the effects being proportional to the intravenous dose of organisms. Concomitant footpad infection a...
