ABSTRACTPretreatment in tissue culture (TC) was previously found to markedly reduce the in vitro cytotoxicity of two types of crosslinked dermal sheep collagens (DSC's). This in vivo study confirms our in vitro results, in that TC-pretreatment of crosslinked DSC's resulted in the marked reduction or elimination of cytotoxic effects, such as increased cell infiltration, a deviant neutrophil-morphology, lipid formation and cell death. TC-pretreatment affected the crosslinked state of both DSC's in a different way, which could be deduced from the differences in gelatin-formation and presence of giant cells from macrophage- or fibroblast-origin. The results are explained in view of the differences in crosslinking.

In vitro cold storage of Rubus germplasm was investigated using several environmental conditons and types of storage containers. Shoot cultures of Rubus species and cultivars were grown in either tissue culture bags or 20 × 150 mm glass tubes and compared for plant condition and survival under various storage conditions. Cultures stored at 10 C in the dark were in poor condition after 6 months. Cultures kept at 4 C were in much better condition and had higher survival rates after 18 months when stored with a 12 h daylength rather than total darkness. Overall there were no differences in survival or condition between cultures in tubes and bags. Contamination rates were 15% in tubes and 0% in bags. Plants in tissue culture bags could be stored for 9 months at 25 C with 16 h light when the nitrogen level of the MS medium was reduced to 25% and the medium volume was increased from 10 to 20 ml per bag. Genotype differences were apparent under all conditions tested. The best storage condition for Rubus germplasm was 4 C with 12 h light. Plastic tissue culture bags were preferred over tubes due to lower contamination rates.

Porous-bottom dishes offer several advantages for growing and studying epithelia in culture. Many epithelia differentiate more on porous surfaces than on plastic tissue culture dishes. In addition, separate solutions can be maintained on each side of the epithelium and can be sampled easily for studies of transport and other polarized functions. We describe the fabrication of dishes with a cellulose ester filter, a collagen-coated polycarbonate filter, or a collagen membrane forming the surface for cell attachment at the bottom of the dish.

Meat tenderisation results from the weakening of the myofibrillar structures and has been attributed to endogenous proteolytic enzymes. It has been proposed that tenderization is a mulitenzymatic system and the process of slaughter and exsanguination would engage muscle cells in a form of cell death (Ouali et al., 2006). Caspases are primarily associated with apoptosis and once activated they target and cleave a number of substrates including components of the Z-disk and costameres. Recent studies have shown that caspases are active in skeletal muscle during the postmortem conditioning period and our preliminary data indicates that there is a relationship between caspase activity and shear force (Kemp et al., 2006). The aim of this study was to investigate whether recombinant caspase 3 was capable of porcine degrading myofibrillar proteins in vitro.
