Main Model

Schistosomiasis is a detrimental neglected tropical disease that is transmitted by Planorbid snails. Understanding the transmission and control of this disease requires an extensive understanding of these intermediate hosts, which is only achieved by the effective rearing and study of species such asBiomphalaria glabrata. This species is the intermediate host forSchistosoma mansoniin the New World, and is also the main model for studying schistosomes in mollusks. Antibiotics are used routinely inB. glabratatissue culture, and occasionally on live snails. Here we show that standard doses of three common antibiotics (penicillin, streptomycin and gentamicin) drastically diminish the activity of healthyB. glabrata, but that treated snails recover rapidly when placed in fresh water. Ampicillin treated snails did not show altered activity. We suggest that researchers keep these apparent toxicities in mind if a need for antibiotic treatment of live Planorbid snails arises.

Abstract We analyzed the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) test results reported in the College of American Pathologists' (CAP) surveys to determine the relationship between the source of CEA used to manufacture the survey specimens and the discrepancies among analytical methods. With the 1983 survey specimens, which were prepared from metastatic colon carcinoma, laboratories using Roche RIA with Clinetics columns reported results that were only one-half the values reported by laboratories using the Abbott polyclonal enzyme immunoassay. With the 1984 specimens, prepared from a different metastatic colon carcinoma, and the 1985 specimens, prepared from a tissue-culture source of CEA, the Roche results were about one-sixth as large as the Abbott results. These differences are larger than the reported assay differences for patients' specimens. In addition, twofold proportional differences were found when survey and control specimens were tested with different lots of Abbott polyclonal reagent, whereas only random differences were found with 102 patients' specimens. Evidently, assay systems perform differently with proficiency-testing and control specimens than with patients' specimens.

This paper presents observations on the growth of Lansing poliomyelitis virus in fluid cultures of various human embryonic and adult tissues. The evidence suggests that viral multiplication has occurred in cultures of monkey testis, human embryonic kidney, and mixtures of brain and cord. Satisfactory virus growth has been obtained particularly in cultures containing human embryonic brain and cord. Virus is present in tissue culture fluids in which the original inoculum has been diluted 10−33.3 by subcultivation. Preliminary observations suggest that a synthetic medium (Mixture 199) devised by Morgan, Morton, and Parker is superior to Hanks–Simms solution as a nutritive medium in such cultures. The cytopathogenic effect of the virus, as revealed by pH determinations and cell morphology, has been noted, although a characteristic pH differential between virus infected and control flasks was not commonly observed. Attempts to grow the virus on a larger scale in Kolle flasks are described.

The endogenous bacterial contamination of plant tissue culture materials and their possible control was studied. Nine bacterial isolates were isolated from the contaminated tissue culture materials viz. potato and tea. On the basis of morphology and biochemical characters of nine isolates, seven were identified as Gram positive belonging to Bacillus alcalophilus, B. circulans, B. infantis, B. lentus, B. schlegelii, B. pumilus and B. subtilis. Remaining two were Gram negative and identified as Enterobacter cloacae sub. sp. dissolvens and Pantoea agglomerans. Molecular analysis was conducted on the basis of 16S rDNA sequence to confirm three isolates. Culture and sensitivity test was carried out to screen out the antibiotic sensitivity where streptomycin (S-10), polymyxin (PB-300) and gentamicin (CN-120) antibiotics were found to be effective against all bacterial isolates. The culture and sensitivity test reflected the feasibility to control or eliminate the contaminant bacteria during in vitro culture of plant which is very much required in the commercial tissue culture production.Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 28(1): 99-108, 2018 (June)

Vitro Production

Capsaicin, a secondary metabolite produced in capsicum, is in high demand in pharmaceutical industry because of its various medicinal properties. Currently, the supply of capsaicin depends upon its extraction from capsicum fruits. This limits the production of capsaicin as it depends upon agricultural produce. The current review has compiled information from various literature published on chemistry and importance of capsaicin along with its method of production. It also reviews the process of in vitro production of capsaicin through plant tissue culture, strategies of increasing capsaicin accumulation and its advantages over extraction from fruits and artificial synthesis.

The objective of this study was to determine fertilization rate effectiveness and early embryonic development competency with glutathione (GSH) supplementation in fertilization medium and culture This study consisted of two experiments comprising each of the four treatment and six repetitions with completely randomized design (CRD) using 651 oocytes. In the first experiment, a total of 317 bovine oocytes were matured in tissue culture medium (TCM) 199 at incubator 5% CO2 with temperature 39 ºC for24 h, then fertilized with sperm separated by swim up technique. Oocyte and sperms were incubated in fertilization medium supplemented with 0.25 mM, 0.50 mM, 1.00 mM GSH. In the second experiment, bovine oocytes were matured in maturation medium and fertilized with same procedure as mentioned before, then cultured in modified synthetic oviduct fluid (mSOF) with the following treatment: supplementation GSH only in fertilization medium (T1), supplementation GSH only in culture medium (T2), and supplementation GSH in both fertilization and culture medium (T3), while control not supplementation GSH (T0). Result of the first experiment showed that supplementation 1.00 mM GSH in fertilization medium can increase higher normal pronucleus (2PN) formation (86,9%) compared to other treatments, 0.50 mM (80.3%), 0.25 mM (73.8%), and control (58.9%) (P<0.05). In the second experiment showed that early bovine embryonic development on 2nd day cultured which reached 5-8 cell on treatment T1 (56.0%) and T3 (53.6%) were higher (P<0.05) compared to treatment T2 (26.2%) and T0 (control) (31.3%). Result of the other were showed that early bovine embryonic development on 4th day cultured which reached 9-16 cell on treatment T1 (26.2%) and T3 (27.4%) were higher (P<0.05) compared to that T2 (11.9%) and T0 (control) (10.8%). In conclusion, 1.00 mM GSH supplementation in medium was more effective in supporting normal pronucleus formation and early fertilization bovine embryonic development compared to in culture medium. ABSTRAK Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui tingkat fertilisasi dan kompetensi perkembangan awal embrio sapi dengan penambahan glutathione (GSH) pada medium fertilisasi in vitro (IVF) dan kultur in vitro (IVC). Penelitian ini terdiri atas dua penelitian yang terdiri dari masing-masing empat perlakukan dan enam kali ulangan dengan rancangan acak lengkap (RAL) menggunakan 651 oosit. Penelitian I, sebanyak 317 oosit sapi dalam tissue culture medium (TCM) 199 dimatangkan pada inkubator 5% CO2 dan suhu 39°C selama 24 jam, kemudian difertilisasi dengan spermatozoa yang telah diseleksi menggunakan teknik swim up. Oosit dan spermatozoa diinkubasi pada medium fertilisasi dengan penambahan 0,25 mM, 0,50 mM, dan 1,00 mM GSH. Penelitian II, sebanyak 334 oosit sapi dimatangkan pada medium pematangan dan difertilisasi, kemudian dikultur pada medium modified synthetic oviduct fluid (mSOF), dengan perlakuan: penambahan GSH hanya pada medium fertilisasi (T1), penambahan GSH hanya pada medium kultur (T2), dan kombinasi penambahan GSH pada medium fertilisasi dan kultur (T3). Hasil penelitian I, menunjukkan bahwa penambahan 1,00 mM GSH pada medium fertilisasi dapat meningkatkan pembentukan pronukleus normal (2PN) yang lebih tinggi (86,9%) dibandingkan dengan perlakuan yang lain yaitu 0,50 mM (80,3%), 0,25 mM (73,8%), dan kontrol (58,9%) (P<0,05). Penelitian II menujukkan bahwa perkembangan awal embrio sapi pada hari ke-2 kultur yang mencapai pembelahan 5-8 sel pada perlakukan T1 (56,0%) dan T3 (53,6%) lebih tinggi (P<0,05) dibandingkan dengan perlakuan T2 (26,2%) dan T0 (kontrol) (31,3%). Hasil penelitian lain menunjukkan bahwa perkembangan awal embrio sapi pada hari ke-4 kultur yang mencapai pembelahan 9-16 sel pada perlakuan T1 (26,2%) dan T3 (27,4%) lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan perlakukan T2 (11,9%) dan T0 (kontrol) (10,8%) (P<0,05). Dapat disimpulkan bahwa penambahan 1,00 mM GSH pada medium fertilisasi lebih efektif dalam mendukung pembentukan pronukleus normal dan perkembangan awal embrio sapi dibandingkan pada medium kultur.
