Abstract Waste non-standard fish combined with wheat bran filler in ratio 60:40 were used for production of new non-traditional protein component called Ribotricin. The aim of this study was to elucidate the effects of the new protein component Ribotricin on growth performance, feed utilization and feed ingredients digestibility of carp (Cyprinus carpio L., 1758) fish. The experiment (90 days) involved 160 carp reared in eight concrete tanks with an initial average weight of 0.046 ± 8.04 g in (RT) tank, and fish with an initial average weight of 0.047 ± 6.52 g in (FM) tanks. The experimental carp were equally divided into two groups of 80 (four replicates of 20 carp each). The obtained results at the end of the experiment, showed no significant differences between the groups` Body Weight (BW), Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), Specific Growth Rate (SGR), Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER) (p> 0.05). Based on the obtained data, we can conclude that Ribotricin (RT) can be used as fish meal substitution in the diets of carp fish without adverse effects on the measured parameters.

Structure-functlon studies of biological N2-fixation have correlated the presence of the enzyme nitrogenase with increased numbers of intracytoplasmic membranes in Azotobacter. However no direct evidence has been provided for the internal cellular localization of any nitrogenase. Recent advances concerned with the crystallizatiorTand the electron microscopic characterization of the Mo-Fe protein component of Azotobacter nitrogenase, prompted the use of this purified protein to obtain antibodies (Ab) to be conjugated to electron dense markers for the intracellular localization of the protein by electron microscopy. The present study describes the use of ferritin conjugated to goat antitMo-Fe protein immunoglobulin (IgG) and the observations following its topical application to thin sections of N2-grown Azotobacter.

Summary1. Aromatic diamidines which are potent inhibitors of trypsin possess a marked inhibitory effect on the clotting activity of human thrombin and on the prothrombin time and partial thromboplastin time of human plasma. They also block the contact activation phase of the coagulation process. The strongest inhibitor among the compounds tested was M & B 4596 which was followed in second place by pentamidine.2. Pentamidine was 10 times more active than ε-ACA in impeding streptokinase-induced lysis of human plasma clots. It was 100-200 times stronger than ε-ACA in inhibiting the activation of bovine plasminogen by activators formed from the interaction between streptokinase and either human plasmin(ogen) or human plasma.3. The prothrombin time and partial thromboplastin time of canine plasma were less susceptible to inhibition by pentamidine than the same tests on human plasma. Clot lysis in the canine system was inhibited by pentamidine to a similar degree as in the human system. After intravenous injection of pentamidine in the dog there occurred the expected prolongation of the partial thromboplastin time and of the clot lysis time.
