Purification of Poly-beta-Hydroxybutyrate by Density Gradient Centrifugation in Sodium Bromide.
نویسنده
چکیده
Fractionation of fully sporulated cultures of Bacillus thuringiensis by density gradient centrifugation in NaBr produced two bands which were identified as poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate. This technique generated high yields of membrane-bound and unbound granules of exceptional purity and degree of polymerization.

Optimization of The Cell Aggregates Method for Isolation and Purification of Human Granulosa Cells from Follicular Fluid
Objective Aspirated ovarian follicular fluids (FF) contain luteal granulosa cells (LGC) and other contaminating cell types. Several strategies such as the antibody binding methods, the flask method, the cell strainer, and the positive selection of granulosa aggregates after density gradient centrifugation, were tested as LGCs purification methods. Each of these strategies has its own advantages...
متن کاملUniformity of the microsymbiont population from soybean nodules with respect to buoyant density.
The microsymbiont population in soybean root nodules (Glycine max L. cv Williams 82 inoculated with Bradyrhizobium japonicum 2143) was characterized during symbiotic development to determine the extent of heterogeneity in this population. The microsymbiont population was isolated by centrifugation through a continuous sucrose gradient (44 to 57% weight to weight ratio) and appeared homogeneous ...

The activities of several enzymes of the citric acid and poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate cycles were measured in Rhizobium japonicum 3I1B-143 bacteroids which had been isolated from soybean nodules by sucrose gradient centrifugation. During the period of developing nitrogenase activity, the specific activity of fumarase, hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, beta-ketothiolase, and pyruvate dehydrogenase com...
متن کاملPoly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) supports survival and reproduction in starving rhizobia.
The carbon that rhizobia in root nodules receive from their host powers both N(2) fixation, which mainly benefits the host, and rhizobium reproduction. Rhizobia also store energy in the lipid poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB), which may enhance rhizobium survival when they are carbon limited, either in nodules or in the soil between hosts. There can be a conflict of interest between rhizobia and leg...

Neither the infectivity nor the morphology of the mouse mammary tumor virus is appreciably affected by abrupt dilutions from strong solutions of cesium chloride, sodium chloride, or sodium iothalamate. In the purification of this virus by density gradient centrifugation, it is not necessary to use solutions of low osmotic activity. In sucrose, sodium iothalamate, potassium tartrate, or citrate,...
