<strong>Título en ingles: Micropropagation of papaya plants in temporary immersion recipients from axilary shoots</strong><p><strong>Título corto: Micropropagación de lechosa en recipientes de inmersión temporal.</strong></p><strong>Resumen: </strong>Se estandarizaron las condiciones de iniciación, multiplicación, enraizamiento y aclimatización de plantas hermafroditas de lechosa cv Maradol provenientes de brotes axilares, producidos en recipientes de inmersión temporal RITA<sup>®</sup>. En cada envase, contentivo de 200 ml de medio de cultivo líquido de Fitch, se colocaron cuatro brotes de 2 a 3 cm de longitud. Los biorreactores se conectaron a tres líneas de inmersión de 5, 2 y 1 min cada 4h y se colocaron 6 envases en promedio por línea, en condiciones de fotoperíodo de 16 h. Transcurridos 30 a 45 días, se cuantificaron los brotes y se clasificaron de acuerdo al tamaño: &lt; 2 cm (pequeños), entre 2 a 3 cm (medianos),  ˃ 3 cm con y sin raíz (grandes). Los dos primeros tipos de brotes se continuaron multiplicando en los mismos medios; y los más elongados se aclimatizaron utilizando el Sistema Autotrófico Hidropónico (SAH). Se determinó la sanidad y la fidelidad de las plantas producidas mediante pruebas de ELISA y RAPD, respectivamente. Durante un periodo de 6 meses se reciclaron un total de 47 recipientes, los cuales produjeron 1.091 brotes: 377  pequeños; 482 medianos; 175 grandes sin raíz y 57 con raíz. Usando el SAH se obtuvo 89,5% de plantas aclimatizadas cuando se usaron brotes enraizados, y 41,6% a partir de brotes sin  raíces. Con la combinación de las técnicas RITA y SAH se logró un sistema continuo y eficiente de producción de plantas sanas y fieles al tipo, en comparación con los métodos convencionales de micropropagación y aclimatización.<p><strong>Palabras clave</strong>: <em>Carica papaya</em>, RITA<sup>®</sup>, sistema autotrófico, estabilidad genética.</p><p><strong>Abstract: </strong>We standardized initiation, multiplication, rooting and acclimatization conditions of papaya cv Maradol hermaphrodite plants from axillary buds produced in temporary immersion reactor RITA<sup>®</sup>.

1. A powerful kinase which changes trypsinogen to trypsin was found to be present in the synthetic liquid culture medium of a mold of the genus Penicillium. 2. The concentration of kinase in the medium is increased gradually during the growth of the mold organism and continues to increase for some time even after the mold has ceased growing. 3. Mold kinase transforms trypsinogen to trypsin only in an acid medium. It differs thus from enterokinase and trypsin which activate trypsinogen best in a slightly alkaline medium. 4. The action of the mold kinase in the process of transformation of trypsinogen is that of a typical enzyme. The process follows the course of a catalytic unimolecular reaction, the rate of formation of a definite amount of trypsin being proportional to the concentration of kinase added. The ultimate amount of trypsin formed, however, is independent of the concentration of kinase used. 5. The formation of trypsin from trypsinogen by mold kinase is not accompanied by any measurable loss of protein. 6. The temperature coefficient of formation of trypsin from trypsinogen by mold kinase varies from Q5–15 = 1.70 to Q25–30 = 1.25 with a corresponding variation in the value of µ from 8100 to 4250. 7. Trypsin formed from trypsinogen by means of mold kinase is identical in crystalline form with the crystalline trypsin obtained by spontaneous autocatalytic activation of trypsinogen at pH 8.0. The two products have within the experimental error the same solubility and specific activity. A solution saturated with the crystals of either one of the trypsin preparations does not show any increase in protein concentration or activity when crystals of the other trypsin preparation are added. 8. The Penicillium mold kinase has a slight activating effect on chymo-trypsinogen the rate being only 1–2 per cent of that of trypsinogen. The activation, as in the case of trypsinogen, takes place only in an acid medium. 9. Mold kinase is rapidly destroyed when brought to pH 6.5 or higher, and also when heated to 70°C. In the temperature range of 50–60°C. the inactivation of kinase follows a unimolecular course with a temperature coefficient of Q10 = 12.1 and µ = 53,500. The molecular weight of mold kinase, as determined by diffusion, is 40,000.

A detection method for histamine-producing, dairy-related bacteria was developed that involves a two-step sequential enzyme system. First, isolated bacteria are incubated in MRS broth or trypticase soy broth fortified with histidine. The histamine formed during this incubation period is reacted with diamine oxidase, which catalyzes the oxidation of histamine to form imidazole acetaldehyde, ammonia, and hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide is then detected by the formation of crystal violet from the leuco base in the presence of horseradish peroxidase. Liquid culture medium containing bacteria that produce greater than 1200 nmole histamine per ml will develop a positive purple color. Cultures containing bacteria that produce little or no histamine will not develop a purple color. Other amines often found in cheese, such as tyramine, cadaverine, or putrescine, will not interfere with the color formation.

Abstract The in vitro propagation technique via temporary immersion bioreactors is a tool that, through the culture in a liquid medium, allows an increase in the efficiency of seedling production. Several researches with the strawberry crop have shown greater efficiency of the system compared to the conventional process of micropropagation in solid medium. In this sense, the objective herein was to establish a protocol of multiplication and rooting of the ‘Pircinque’ strawberry, in temporary immersion bioreactors. Two distinct and independent studies were carried out, characterized by the multiplication and rooting stages of strawberry explants, newly introduced and registered in Brazil. Two culture media (MS and KNOP) were studied and, as a control treatment, the growth of the explants in solid culture medium was evaluated with the addition of 5 g L-1 of agar. Different immersion times of the culture medium were explored: five or eight times a day, for 15 minutes. The study was composed of the culture medium and immersion time factors, as well as the control (solid) treatment. It was verified that the use of temporary immersion bioreactors system is an efficient technique for the multiplication and rooting of explants of strawberry cv. Pircinque, when compared to the conventional method of micropropagation with the use of solid culture medium, making it possible to optimize the production of seedlings in biofactories. The MS liquid medium, in contact with explants of ‘Pircinque’ strawberry five times a day, increased the growth of the aerial part and the root system.

A rapid and efficient method has been developed to recover aflatoxin from cheese and other foods. The procedure involves: (a) blending the sample with a mixture of chloroform, methanol, and water (solvents are used in such proportions that a miscible (monophasic) system is formed, (b) adding more chloroform and water so the mixture becomes biphasic, (c) filtering to remove the food residue, (d) separating the lower chloroform layer which contains virtually all of the aflatoxin, and (e) purification, if necessary, of the material in step (d) after it has been concentrated. Purification is achieved by sequential addition of methanol, water, and hexane; recovery of tho methanol-water fraction; and extraction of aflatoxins from it with chloroform. Purification can be eliminated if the substrate contains little or no lipid or pigment which, if present, interfere with thin-layer chromaographic analysis. Extraction can be done in approximately 35 min and purification in approximately 20 min. When aflatoxins were added to various substrates, the method recovered 92–98% B1 and 96–100% G1 from rice; 95–96% B1 and 90–95% G1 from peanut butter; 93–94% B1 and 92–98% G1 from Cheddar cheese; 100% B1 and G1 from corn meal; 91–100% B1, 91–100% B2, 90–96% G1, and 92–100% G2 from brick cheese; and 97–100% B1, 95–100% B2, 92–100% G1, and 98–100% G2 from a liquid culture medium.

Several modifications have been made to in vitro production (IVP) systems to allow more efficient production of viable porcine embryos. Although in vitro production of pig embryos has been studied for over 30 years, the overall blastocyst production rate remains low. The low blastocyst rate is due to several factors, including polyspermic oocyte penetration, low rate of male pronucleus formation and less than optimal in vitro culture systems. These conditions are all inherent problems in porcine IVP and many of the mechanisms involved remain unknown. Considerable research has examined culture medium and the techniques used during the various stages of in vitro production. However, changes to the physical culture system used during IVF have remained unchanged until recently. The present paper will summarise selected developments in fertilisation and embryo culture media composition and focus on the development of modified equipment to improve the conditions used during the IVP of porcine oocytes and embryos.
