Reduction of a tetrazolium salt in determining growth activity of yeast-phase Histoplasma capsulatum.
A colorimetric method using a tetrazolium compound, 3,4,5-dimethylthiozalil-(1 or 2),2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (TTBr), was developed for studying the growth activity of yeast-phase Histoplasma capsulatum. Materials extracted in phosphate buffer, pH 7.0, from cells at different stages of growth reduced TTBr. Colorimetric changes were correlated with enzymatic activity. Under standardized c...
متن کاملRibonucleic acid polymerases of the yeast phase of Histoplasma capsulatum.
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) polymerases of Histoplasma capsulatum (yeast phase) were fractionated by phosphocellulose chromatography and partially characterized. Three distinct, active fractions were seen. The major RNA polymerase species was inhibited strongly by alpha-amanitin, whereas the other two were resistant. When either slightly purified (HSE) extract or the major active component was assay...
متن کاملIntracellular Growth of Histoplasma Capsulatum.
Howard, Dexter H. (University of California, Los Angeles). Intracellular growth of Histoplasma capsulatum. J. Bacteriol. 89:518-523. 1965.-Under a variety of experimental conditions, the generation time of Histoplasma capsulatum in mammalian histiocytes was remarkably constant. The rate of intracellular growth of five different isolates of H. capsulatum was very similar. The generation time of ...
متن کاملGrowth of Histoplasma capsulatum. VI. Maintenance of the mycelial phase.
A medium is described for the maintenance of the mycelial phases of Histoplasma capsulatum in their "original" condition of sporulation. A yeast phase medium is reemphasized, not only for conversion and support of the yeast phase, but as an indirect method of maintaining the mycelial characteristics as originally observed.
متن کاملHydroxamic acid from Histoplasma capsulatum that displays growth factor activity.
Growth factor(s) present in a spent liquid medium after culture of the yeast form of Histoplasma capsulatum enhanced both yeast and mycelial growth of nine isolates tested. Hydroxamic acid extracted from the culture fluid displayed growth factor activity.
