<p>ABSTRACT</p><p>Phalaenopsis  amabilis  orchid  is one   of the most  popular  species  of orchids and  was inaugurated as one of the  national  flower ' Puspa  Pesona'. The purpose  of this study  was to determine the effects of   various  tissue culture   media composition on  Protocorm Like Bodies (PLBs)  multiplication,  growth  of plantlets,  and  acclimatization  of  Phalaenopsis  amabilis. Basic medium  used was  a half strengh of  Murashige and  Skoog (1/2MS)  and  Hyponex with additional  coconut  water,  benzyladeninepurine,  and  chitosan.  In  PLBs multiplication experiments ,   ½  MS  +  15%  coconut  water  medium produces  the  highest   percentage  of survival  rate.  ½  MS  +  15%  coconut water  medium  and  Hyponex  2  g  L-1+  15%  coconut water  +  2.5 ppm chitosan  medium  gave  the best  effect on  the fresh   weight  of  plantlets. The composition of  the culture medium   significantly affect   the fresh   weight and length of   root   on 8  WAP  (week after planting)   in the   acclimatization stage.</p><p>Key words: benzyladeninepurine, chitosan, coconut water, Hyponex,  tissue culture</p><p>ABSTRAK</p><p>Phalaenopsis amabilis  yang dikenal dengan  nama anggrek bulan merupakan salah satu jenisanggrek  yang  paling  populer  dan  dinobatkan  sebagai  salah satu  bunga  nasional  dengan  sebutan ‘Puspa Pesona’.  Tujuan penelitian ini untuk  mengetahui pengaruh berbagai komposisi media kultur jaringan dalam perbanyakan  Protocorm Like Bodies  (PLBs),  pertumbuhan  planlet, dan aklimatisasi Phalaenopsis amabilis.

Coconut water and rotten banana fruits are commonly found in traditional markets as organic wastes. One way to overcome the problems caused by these organic wastes is to convert these unuseful matter into an important and economically useful matter by using them as components of tissue culture media. One important commodity that is usually propagated by tissue culture is Phalaenopsis orchid type 229 (Phalaenopsis amabilis). Therefore, it would be more benefit to substitute the expensive chemicals with organic wastes such as coconut water and banana puree.In this experiment, addition of coconut water and banana pure to the minimum media containing commercial fertilizer red Polyhyponex, sucrose and commercial agar did not show any inhibition of Phalaenopsis orchid plantlet growth. This probably caused by sufficient macro and micro nutrients provided by those organic matter and Polyhyponexfertilizer. Moreover, addition of 100 mL/L of coconut water and 100 mg/L banana puree gave the optimum leaf and adventitious shoot formation. On the other hand, addition of 150 mL/L coconut water gave the optimum height and root formation. In this case,growing Phalaenopsis orchid plantlet should be done in 2 subculture period. The first subculture is to obtain maximum amount of leaf and shhot formation while the second subculture is to obtain optimum height and root formation.Key words : Waste, coconut water, banana puree, tissue culture, Phalaenopsis orchi

To determine whether reactive oxygen molecules could directly and reversibly increase the transfer of albumin across an endothelial barrier, we measured albumin transfer across monolayers of endothelium cultured on micropore filters before and after exposure to xanthine and xanthine oxidase. Xanthine and xanthine oxidase increased endothelial albumin transfer in a dose-dependent fashion. Parallel phase contrast and fluorescence microscopy demonstrated retraction of adjacent cells from one another and disruption of the actin filaments. The oxidant- induced increases in albumin transfer and changes in cell shape were reversed by removing xanthine oxidase and then incubating the monolayers for 3 1/2 hours in tissue culture media enriched with fetal bovine serum. However, incubation in tissue culture media without serum resulted in progressive injury and cell death. Hence, the brief exposure to oxidants initiated a progressive injury process that was reversed by incubation in serum. Because intracellular and extracellular calcium are important determinants of cell shape, and because some oxidized membrane lipids act as calcium ionophores, we asked whether oxidants altered endothelial calcium homeostasis. Xanthine-xanthine oxidase increased release of 45Ca++ from preloaded cells. The calcium antagonist lanthanum chloride prevented xanthine- xanthine oxidase increases in endothelial albumin transfer and prevented the changes in cell shape; chelation of extracellular calcium inhibited lysis of endothelium by xanthine-xanthine oxidase; and the calcium ionophore A23187 increased endothelial albumin transfer and mimicked the oxidant-induced changes in cell shape. Lanthanum chloride inhibited these effects of A23187. These data suggest that oxygen radicals can reversibly increase endothelial permeability to macromolecules, that this is associated with reversible changes in endothelial cell shape and actin filaments, and that the changes in cell shape are related to oxidant-induced changes in endothelial calcium homeostasis.

The rat embryo fibroblast focus assay is used to evaluate the transforming potential of several oncogenes. The sensitivity of this assay increased fivefold when retinoic acid was added to tissue culture media. Retinoic acid probably acts by selectively inhibiting the proliferation of nontransformed cells.

Thirteen communities from 7 Argentinian provinces were selected for the evaluation of serology as an indicator of transmission of Chagas disease. Of the communities appraised, 6 did not have a history of previous treatment with insecticides and 7 had received sporadic or continuous insecticide treatment. The inhabitants of 20% of the houses of each locality were studied by serology. The samples were obtained byfinger pricking and 50 fil of blood were mixed with 150μl of 50% glycerine solution in tissue culture media to be assayed by Indirect Hemagglutination and Indirect Immunofluorescence tests. In untreated areas, the prevalence of infection in infants 0-4 years old was 17.5%, reaching to over 22% for the 5-9 year old group, and to 33.3% in 10-14 year old individuals. The prevalence in treated and surveyed areas was 2.6% in 0-4 year old children, 5.4% in 5-9 year old and 6,2% in 10-14 year old youngsters. The differences between both areas were statistically significant (p < 0.005). This study favors serology as a valid indicator for the evaluation of transmission of Chagas disease in rural areas.
