Protamine precipitation of two reovirus particle types from polluted waters.
Two forms of virus particle are released from reovirus-infected cell cultures, infectious reovirus and potentially infectious reovirus (PIV). PIV particle forms have a complete outer coat and are not infectious until the outer coat is altered or removed. The PIV concentration in polluted waters, however, has not been determined. Protamine sulfate precipitation, using 0.25% fetal bovine serum an...
متن کاملThe Protamine Salts of Phosphatides, with Remarks on the Problem of Lipoproteins* by Erwin Chargaff
In the course of a study of the rOle of protamines in blood coagulation, to be described in the paper immediately following (I), it was observed that a stable emulsion of highly purifiecl cephalin gave a characteristic precipitate on ad/dition of a solution of the protamine salmine. In contrast, neither lecithin nor sphingomyelin produced precipitates under similar conditions. This reaction whi...
متن کاملIsolation of enterovirus and reovirus from sewage and treated effluents in selected Puerto Rican communities.
Sewage treatment plant effluents were surveyed for viral contributions to gastroenteritis outbreaks in Puerto Rico. Of the 15 sewage treatment plants studied, all discharged their effluents upstream from water treatment plant intakes. No base-line data on the degree of viral challenge to these sewage treatment plants or the subsequent reduction of viruses before discharge existed. Enterovirus c...
متن کاملPolycations sensitize enteric bacteria to antibiotics.
Polymyxin B nonapeptide, a polymyxin B derivative which lacks the fatty acyl part and the bactericidal activity of polymyxin, was shown to sensitize smooth encapsulated Escherichia coli (O18:K1) and smooth Salmonella typhimurium to hydrophobic antibiotics (novobiocin, fusidic acid, erythromycin, clindamycin, nafcillin, and cloxacillin). The polymyxin B nonapeptide-treated bacteria were as sensi...
متن کاملToxicity characteristics of sewage treatment effluents and potential contribution of micropollutant residuals
Background: A typical sewage treatment plant is designed for organic and nutrient removal from municipal sewage water and not targeted to eliminate micropollutants such as pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and nano-sized metals which become a big concern for sustainable human and ecological system and are mainly discharged from sewage treatment plant. Therefore, despite contaminant removal by wastew...
