The production of penicillin using fractions obtained from aqueous extracts of pea (Pisum sativum).

چکیده
Aqueous extracts of air-dried ground peas% can provide a good mediuim for the growth and production of penicillin byPeniciUium notatum (Cook&Tulloch, 1944). The experiments to be described were carried out to determine what constituents of the pea were responsible for this effect. Although other vegetable extracts give a similar effect the pea lias been chosen as it is a readily available material and one on which methods may be standardized.

Insecticidal components from field pea extracts: isolation and separation of peptide mixtures related to pea albumin 1b.
Chromatographic fractionation of crude extracts (C8 extracts) from the protein-enriched flour of commercial field peas (Pisum sativum L.) has been shown here to yield peptide mixtures related to the pea albumin 1b (PA1b) family of cysteine-rich plant peptides. The mixtures were obtained initially by flash chromatography with silica gel. Following elution of soyasaponins and lysolecithins, the e...
متن کاملRole of nitrogen content of pea (Pisum sativum L.) on pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum Harris) establishment
The leaf nitrogen content is generally accepted as an indicator of food quality and as a factor affecting host selection by phytophagous insects. The alate pea aphids (Acyrthosiphon pisum Harris, Aphididae) were given a choice among non-nodulated pea plants (Pisum sativum L.) supplied with one of four nitrate-N levels (0, 3, 15 and 30 mM). When whole plants were exposed to aphids for 7 days, th...
متن کاملEffect of Pisum sativum fractions on the mortality and progeny production of nine stored-grain beetles
Yellow field pea (Pisum sativum L.) fractions that were mainly protein (50%), fibre (90%) or starch (85%) were obtained from a commercial pea mill and mixed with wheat kernels or wheat flour. Based on the mortality and the number of offspring produced, protein-rich pea flour was more toxic than fibre, which was more toxic than starch. For the protein-rich pea flour mixed with wheat kernels, the...
متن کاملEffects of phytoestrogen extracts isolated from rye, green and yellow pea seeds on hormone production and proliferation of trophoblast tumor cells Jeg3.
BACKGROUND Phytoestrogens are a diverse group of non-steroidal plant compounds. Because they have chemical structures similar to estrogens they are able to bind on estrogen receptors in humans. OBJECTIVES In this study, we tested the effects of crude phytoestrogen extracts from rye (Secale cereale), green pea (Pisum sativum) and yellow pea seeds (Pisum sativum cv.) on cell proliferation and t...

Asparaginase was extracted from plant parts of Pisum sativum subspp. Jof collected from a field crop. Asparaginase activity was detected in seeds, stems and leaves extracts. Enzyme activity was higher in seeds extracts (30.0 U/ml) compared with leaves extracts (26.4 U/ml) and stems extracts (16.1 U/ml), respectively. Optimum conditions for the activity of crude asparaginase extracted from plant...
