    Notes: Abstract A strain similar to Dictyoglomus thermophilum, isolated from a New Zealand hot spring, is described. This strictly anaerobic, Gram-negative, non-motile and nonsporulating bacterium usually exists as long thin filaments of 5 to 25 μm by 0.35 to 0.45 μm. Rotund bodies are commonly observed. Thin sections of the cells revealed a two-layered cell wall. The optimum temperature and pH for growth was 70°C and 7.0 and 7.5 respectively. No growth was observed at 40°C and 85°C or at pH 4.5 to pH 9.0. The organism fermented glucose, maltose, mannose, xylose, lactose, cellobiose, galactose and sucrose and produced acetate as the major end-product with significant amounts of lactate, H2 and CO2 and only traces of ethanol. The doubling time on glucose was 10 h. The DNA base composition was 29.5% guanine plus cytosine as determined by the thermal denaturation method. Growth was inhibited by penicillin, tetracycline and chloramphenicol indicating that the organism was a eubacterium. These features are in common with the newly described species Dictyoglomus thermophilum to which the New Zealand isolate belongs.

    Notes: The synthesis of a range of aromatic bisbiotin ligands is described and their ability to polymerize the proteins avidin and streptavidin is investigated. The formation of protein polymers is confirmed by gel chromatography and transmission electron microscopy. It is shown that the degree of polymerization depends not only on the length of the ligand but also on the stereochemistry of the group linking the distal biotin moieties. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Five extremely thermophilic cellulose-degrading isolates obtained from New Zealand thermal springs were tested for their ability to degrade a number of natural lignocellulosic substrates. Degradation by three of the isolates was generally similar to that by the moderate thermophile, Clostridium thermocellum but occurred at a higher temperature. The New Zealand isolates were also found to grow on xylan as sole carbohydrate source, which probably extends their attack to hemicellulose.

    Notes: An inducible β-galactosidase from an extremely thermophilic organism, Thermus strain 4-1A, has been isolated and partially purified. There were significant dissimilarities to T. aquaticus β-galactosidase. It had a pl of 4.5, was inhibited by sulphydryl inhibitors and a number of transition metals, and was activated by EDTA and SH-containing reagents. The β-galactosidase showed strong product inhibition, and weaker inhibition by some other mono- and disaccharides. It was very stable up to 90°C at pH 8. On immobilization by diazonium linkage to porous glass, the pH optimum (6.0), the KM with ONPG (5mM) and the product inhibition were not altered.

    Notes: An experiment is described which measures the heat transferred from a hot, flowing, buoyant gas layer in a mall, to a sprinkler spray. Interpolation techniques are described which allow for the large heat losses occurring within the apparatus (a large-scale model mall). The results are compared with predictions based on the method developed in Part 1 and found to be consistently 150% of the predicted heat transfer rates. Given the assumptions required by the predictive calculations this is thought to be reasonable degree of agreement. The largest heat transfer rate to the one sprinkler spray in this experiment was 157 kW ± 38 kW.
