three media formulated from molasses and cornsteep liquor and another media based on the basal medium formulation of ips-82 were assessed for the growth and production of insecticidal properties of b. thuringiensis h-14 .• bacterial powders prepared from the broth cultures were assayed against the larvae of culex pipiens and anopheles stephensi. a standard powder of ips-82 was included in the a...

production of extracellular amylase was demonstrated under conditions of high salinity in aerobically cultivated culture of a newly isolated moderately halophilic gram-positive coccus, designated strain f in basal medium containing peptone from meat, yeast extract, nacl (7% w/v) and starch. biochemical and physiological characterization along with 16s rrna sequence analysis placed f in the genu...

An efficient protocol was established for rapid in vitro propagation of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni, using explants from mature plants. The effect of 1/2MS, MS and B5 culture media, also 27 different combinations of auxins and cytokinins was studied on in vitro growth and development of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni. The best culture medium for shoot and root formation was 1/2MS, producing 1.30 shoot...

An improved tissue culture basal medium, CMRL-1969, supplemented with serum, has been evaluated by measuring the growth responses of primary cultures of trypsin-dispersed monkey kidney cells (PMKC) and of an established culture of a human diploid cell strain (HDCS). Medium H597, an early modification of medium 199 which has been used successfully in the preparation of poliomyelitis vaccine for ...

To determine whether basal phosphoinositide turnover plays a role in metabolic regulation in resting rabbit aortic intima-media incubated under steady state conditions, we used deprivation of extracellular myo-inositol as a potential means of inhibiting basal phosphatidylinositol (PI) synthesis at restricted sites and of depleting small phosphoinositide pools with a rapid basal turnover. Medium...
