An aliquot from a continuous fermenter culture of baby hamster kidney cells (BHK-21 Clone PD-4) (Wistar) maintained in Ca free Eagle's Basal Medium containing 2% Kaolin adsorbed fetal calf serum was planted in spinner flasks at 300,000 cells per ml, total volume 600 ml. After equilibration for one day at 35°C to insure that cells were in log phase, the culture was infected with the M-33-AGMK25 BHK-219 strain of rubella at an input multiplicity of about 6 TCID50 per cell. The virus was identified with specific rubella antiserum.Preliminary experiments had shown that such cultures would reach a peak or plateau HA titer of approximately 1:64, 24 hrs after inoculation and would continue to yield virus for 6 to 12 days. One hundred ml aliquot harvests were withdrawn daily and the culture was returned to volume with growth medium and incubation continued. The harvested cells were spun down rapidly at 2500 rpm per 15 mins., fixed in 3.7% gluteraldehyde in Ca free phosphate buffer saline, and post fixed in osmium tetraoxide. After dehydration, the cells were embedded in Epon 812 and cured approximately 20 hrs at 60°C.

In the present study, the ultrastructural changes of BPK cells, a fibroblast-like cell line, derived from the kidney of juvenile black porgy Acanthopagrus schlegeli, under heat shock treatment are described.The BPK cells were maintained in L-15 medium supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum and 0.15 M NaCl at 28|C2. The heating was carried out in precalibrated water baths. Monolayers of cells, grown on coverslips in parafilm-sealed petri dishes were submerged under water for 30 min at 40|C treatments. Cells were fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde in 0.1 M cacodylate buffer supplemented with 6.6% sucrose, postfixed in 1% OsO4 and flat embedded in Spurr’s resin. Silver section were cut parallel to the substratum, stained with uranyl acetate and Reynold’s lead citrate, and examined in a Hitachi H-600 electron microscope at 75 KV.

Reaction of 3',5'-di-O-benzoyl-6-methyl-2'-deoxyuridine (IIa) with elementary bromine or iodine afforded 5-halogeno derivatives IIc and IId which on methanolysis gave 5-bromo-6-methyl-2'-deoxyurine (Ic) and 5-iodo-6-methyl-2'-deoxyurine (Id), respectively. The CD spectra of Ic, Id and 6-methyl-2'-deoxyuridine (Ia) are compared and discussed with regard to determination of the nucleoside conformation. Unlike 5-bromo- and 5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine, the 6-methyl derivatives Ic and Id exhibit neither antibacterial nor antiviral activity. Nor do they exert any antimetabolic effect on the de novo DNA synthesis in primary rabbit kidney cells.

This paper describes a method to measure calcium fluxes and calcium exchangeable pools in tissue slices by continuous perifusion in flow-through chambers. 45Ca desaturation from rat kidney slices can be analyzed as in an open three-compartment catenary system. A set of equations is given to calculate all the relevant kinetic parameters from the triple exponential equations which best fit the desaturation curves. The results show that the kinetic parameters obtained in kidney slices by this new method are in the same order of magnitude as those previously observed in cultured monkey kidney cells.
