Micro-organisms isolated from skin under wedding rings worn by hospital staff.

Utilization of S-adenosylmethionine by micro-organisms.

Shapiro, Stanley K. (Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, Ill.). Utilization of S-adenosylmethionine by microorganisms. J. Bacteriol. 83:169-174. 1962.-Two types of mutants of Aerobacter aerogenes that utilize S-adenosylmethionine for growth are described. One type also responds to methionine, 5'methylthioadenosine, or a combination of homocysteine and S-methylmethionine. The second type of mu...

The utilization of pyridine by micro-organisms.

Photosynthetic phosphorylation catalyzed by factors isolated from photosynthetic organisms.

where DaUk converges strongly to Dau in L2(Q). Furthermore, daf(uk)Dv converges strongly to da,,(u)Dv in L2(Q) by dominated convergence. Hence, each term in the sum for a (u k, V) converges to the corresponding term in the sum for a(u, v), (G(uk), v)m . (G(u), v)m for each v in V, and the proof of Lemma 3 is complete. Proof of Theorem 1: By Lemma 2, it suffices to show that the mapping G is one...

Isolation and Characterization of Phb Producing Micro-organisms Isolated from Root Nodules of Leguminous Plants

A number of the micro-organisms are capable of producing polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA’s) as storage food reserve under unbalanced growth conditions. The mechanical properties of PHA’s are similar to that of synthetic plastics like polyethylene, polypropylene etc. The advantage of using PHA’s over synthetic plastic is that PHA’s are completely mineralized into carbon dioxide and water through the ...

Adaptation in Micro-Organisms

all the humdrum of mental undressing, dressing, shaving, etc., there is the chance reward of being confidential ear to what may never be so well expressed or thought of again. The contributors of the "relatively brief" presentations are six in number. Alex Bavelas talks on "Communication patterns in problem-solving groups"; Ivor A. Richards, on "Communication between men: Meaning and language";...
