Inhibition of the Rumen Ciliate Entodinium caudatum by Antibiotics
Axenic cultures of free-living aerobic ciliates, such as Tetrahymena thermophila and Paramecium aurelia, have been established and routinely used in laboratory research, greatly facilitating, or enabling characterization of their metabolism, physiology, and ecology. Ruminal protozoa are anaerobic ciliates, and they play important roles in feed digestion and fermentation. Although, repeatedly at...
متن کاملThe catabolism of phosphatidylethanolamine by the rumen protozoon Entodinium caudatum and its conversion into the N-(1-carboxyethyl) derivative.
1. The N-(2-hydroxyethyl)alanine esterified to phosphatidic acid in anaerobic ciliate rumen protozoa has the l configuration. 2. Labelling experiments with Entodinium caudatum cultures using [(32)P]P(i) [2-(14)C]ethanolamine and (32)P- and (14)C-labelled phosphatidylethanolamine show that phosphatidylethanolamine is the direct lipid precursor of the N-(2-hydroxyethyl)alanine-containing phosphol...
متن کاملGeneration times of Epidinium caudatum and Entodinium caudatum, determined in vitro by transferring at various time intervals.
Generation times were determined in vitro with a pure culture of Epidinium caudatum and a mixed culture of Epidinium caudatum and Entodinium caudatum. Measurement of logarithmic growth from a small inoculum for Epidinium caudatum alone, or in coculture, resulted in generation times of 30.8 and 19.5 h, respectively. Epidinium concentrations, either alone or in coculture, were maintained when cul...
متن کاملIn vitro methane formation and carbohydrate fermentation by rumen microbes as influenced by selected rumen ciliate species.
Ciliate protozoa contribute to ruminal digestion and emission of the greenhouse gas methane. Individual species of ciliates co-cultured with mixed prokaryote populations were hypothesized to utilize carbohydrate types differently. In an in vitro batch culture experiment, 0.6 g of pure cellulose or xylan was incubated for 24 h in 40-mL cultures of Entodinium caudatum, Epidinium ecaudatum, and Eu...
متن کاملPreliminary study on the requirements of Entodinium exiguum and E. caudatum for live or dead bacteria when cultured in vitro.
Whether live bacteria are required to culture the rumen protozoa Entodinium exiguum and E. caudatum in vitro was studied. Treatments were protozoa plus antibiotics (PA), PA plus autoclaved bacteria (PAB) or protozoa plus live bacteria (PLB). Generation times at 24 h were 22.8 and 31.0 h for E. exiguum and E. caudatum. Protozoal concentrations were unaffected by the absence of bacteria up to 48 ...
