The growth of corn (Zea mays) roots and barley (Hordeum vulgare) coleoptiles is sensitive to the presence of external d-glucosamine and d-galactose. In order to investigate this effect, tissues were fed the radioactive monosaccharides at concentrations that ranged from those that were strongly
d-galactose (DG)-induced aging in C57BL/6J (B6) mice (3-4 mo) was used to examine the effects of soy isoflavones (SIF). Mice were divided into six groups: corn oil control, DG treatment, DG+melatonin (1 mg/kg BW), and DG+low (0.1 mg/kg), median (0.5 mg/kg) or high (2.5 mg/kg) SIF. DG was
The effect of D-mannose (Man) on plant cells was studied in two different systems: Arabidopsis roots and maize (Zea mays) suspension-cultured cells. In both systems, exposure to D-Man was associated with a subset of features characteristic of apoptosis, as assessed by oligonucleosomal fragmentation
A method to distinguish the four most common biologically relevant underivatized hexoses, d-glucose, d-galactose, d-mannose, and d-fructose, using only mass spectrometry with no prior separation/derivatization step has been developed. Electrospray of a solution containing hexose and a lithium salt
Artificial carbohydrate antigen (Yariv reagent), fluorescence-labeled α-L-fucose-binding lectin, and β-D-galactose-binding lectin were used to localize arabinogalactan protein in sections of maize (Zea mays L.) coleoptiles. All three probes bind to cell walls of vascular tissue and the outer
In 1985 the vernacular name Enteric Group 90 was coined for a small group of strains that had been referred to our laboratory as probable strains of Salmonella but did not agglutinate in Salmonella typing antisera. By DNA-DNA hybridization (hydroxyapatite method, 32P), seven strains of Enteric Group
The name Vibrio hollisae (synonym = Special Bacteriology group EF-13) is proposed for a new group of 16 strains that occurred in stool cultures of patients with diarrhea. V. hollisae is a small gram-negative rod, which is motile with a single polar flagellum. No lateral or peritrichous flagella were
