Table 2. In vitro susceptibility data for isolates of Campylobacter Sutterella wadsworthensis is a newly described gram-negagracilis and Sutterella wadsworthensis. tive, asaccharolytic, microaerophilic rod that can be confused with Campylobacter gracilis. The description of S. wadsworC. gracilis (n Å 10) S. wadsworthensis (n Å 19) thensis was based on 20 strains isolated from appendiceal tissue...

There have been efforts to overcome the problem in treatment of cancer using medicinal plants. It has been shown that Citrus essential oil of contains different terpens with antitumor activities. In this study we sought to determine the cytotoxicity of essential oils of Iranian Citrus limon (L.), C. medica (L.), C. sinsensis (L.) peels on cancer cell lines. Essential oils were prepared by hydr...

Respiratory particles containing an aa(3)-type cytochrome oxidase were prepared from Anacystis nidulans, Synechocystis 6714, Synechococcus lividus, Anabaena variabilis, Nostoc sp. strain MAC, Nostoc muscorum, and Mastigocladus laminosus. Oxidation of c-type cytochromes by membrane preparations of the different blue-green algae was observed using purified cytochromes from horse heart, Candida kr...

The genus Carex belongs to tribe Cariceae, subfamily Caricoideae and family Cyperaceae. This genus, with about 2000 species in the world and more than 50 species in Iran, is the largest genus among the family. In expedition to North West and West of Iran, two species, namely, Carex acuta and C. cilicica as new records and C. flava, C. rostrata and C. supina as reinvestigated species are reporte...

Abstract. In this paper, we define the notion of C*-affine maps in the unital *-rings and we investigate the C*-extreme points of the graph and epigraph of such maps. We show that for a C*-convex map f on a unital *-ring R satisfying the positive square root axiom with an additional condition, the graph of f is a C*-face of the epigraph of f. Moreover, we prove som...

When analysed by isoelectric focusing, D-amino acid oxidase from the yeast Rhodotorula gracilis normally consists of three molecular isoforms (pI 7.8, 7.4 and 7.2, respectively) all with the same N-terminal sequence. However, only a single band of pI 7.8 is detected with the recombinant wild-type protein expressed in E. coli. To determine whether the molecular basis of this heterogeneity is due...
