A three-tube method developed is described as a screening test for non-lactose-fermenting organisms isolated from stool cultures. To evaluate the method, 976 strains of gram-negative bacilli were tested. All strains of Salmonella and Shigella were correctly identified generically.

Record-high data rate of 125 Gb/s and SE over 2 bits/s/Hz in burst-mode single-polarization NFDM transmissions were achieved over 976 km of SSMF with EDFA-only amplification by transmitting and processing 222 32 QAM-modulated nonlinear subcarriers simultaneously.

BACKGROUND Direct and indirect contact among animals and holdings are important in the spread of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae. The objective of this study was to investigate the role of slaughterhouse vehicles in spreading B. hyodysenteriae between unconnected farms. RESULTS Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and Multiple Locus Variable number tandem repeat Analysis (MLVA) were used to character...

To test the hypothesis that newly synthesized cholesteryl esters are required for hepatic lipoprotein assembly and secretion, isolated livers of African green monkeys were perfused with medium containing an ACAT inhibitor. Three ACAT inhibitors with different structural and chemical properties were used: CI-976 (Parke-Davis), CP-113818 (Pfizer), or PD-138142-15 (Parke-Davis). Each compound prod...

An observation by Duggleby [Biochem. J. (1979) 181, 255-256] that estimates of kinetic parameters by the jack-knife technique [Cornish-Bowden & Wong (1978) Biochem. J. 175, 969--976] are sometimes outside the range of estimates from which they are calculated has been examined. No significant correlation has been found between the occurrence of this behaviour and the actual quality of the estima...

tau is one of several types of microtubule-associated proteins (maps), responsible for the assembly and stability of microtubule networks that is present only in neurons and predominantly localized in axons which its functions are tightly regulated by phosphorylation. via as yet unknown mechanisms, tau becomes hyperphosphorylated and accompanies with neuronal degeneration, loss of synapses, abe...
