چکیده

Isolates of Mima polymorpha and Herellea vaginicola obtained from retail food products were investigated for their ability to hydrolyze proteins, starch, and lipids as well as for their ability to initiate growth under varying conditions of pH, sodium chloride concentration, and temperature. None of the isolates hydrolyzed starch and a few hydrolyzed proteins, whereas most were actively lipolytic. Members of each genus grew over the range 6 to 42 C; in general, H. vaginicola was more tolerant to high concentrations of sodium chloride and to acid conditions than was M. polymorpha.

Radiation hormesis and adoptive response induced by low doses of limiting radiation

  Ionizing radiation has long been known to produce detrimental biological effects. Although these harmful effects are the results of high doses of exposure, some other maladies such as mutation and cancer seems  to be induced at low doses of exposure. In recent decades, however, some pioneer scientists have indicated that ionizing radiation like many other essential agents has toxic effects  ...

Grazing Response of Topsoil Characteristics in Temperate Rangelands of Kashmir, Himalaya

The superficial strata of ground have been perennially exposed to the action of natural agents such as heat, cold and water. However, grazing agent was not different from them when soils were investigated from temperate rangelands of Kashmir and caused the soil compaction, soil structure degradation and loss of soil organic C and C/N ratio. Soils from three grazing intensities were investigated...

Slide agglutination technique for the rapid differentiation of Mima polymorpha and Herellea from the Neisseriae.

The genera Mima and Herellea, members of the tribe Mimeae (De Bord, 1942), contain organisms which morphologically resemble the Neisseriae upon primary isolation. Since they are being isolated in increasing numbers from the spinal fluid of patients with acute meningitis, a method for their differentiation from the Neisseriae would be advantageous. Schaub and Hauber (1948) classified a gramnegat...
