    Notes: Abstract Eighty-six children (44 males, 42 females) were identified as having non-tuberculous mycobacterial lymphadenitis. The diagnostic criteria were either culture of the organism from the affected lymph node (n=68), or, when culture was negative, a positive skin test with non-tuberculous mycobacterial antigens and negative skin test responses to tuberculin purified protein derivative (PPD) in association with typical histological features (n=18). All children had histopathological findings of granulomatous inflammation with caseation and/or acid-fast bacilli. Eighty-two percent of the children were under 5 years of age at presentation and 30% were less than 2 years old. Most (79%) were city dwellers. Lymph node enlargement had been present for less than 6 months in almost all children (97.5%) and was almost exclusively in the face and neck region (97%). Disease was confined to the involved lymph nodes in 56% but had extended beyond the confines of the infected node to form a collar stud abscess in 38% and 6% presented with a skin sinus. Extranodal extension did not show any statistically significant association with the duration of lymphadenopathy. The duration of lymphadenopathy had been greater in those children in whom an organism was not isolated on culture resected tissue χ2, P〈0.01). All children were treated surgically, and recurrence occurred in five patients. This study describes the clinical and demographic characteristics of non-tuberculous mycobacterial lymphadenopathy in children in a population in which tuberculous adenitis is rare. Recognition of these features may allow earlier diagnosis and appropriate surgical therapy.

    Notes: Abstract Infection withMycobacterium avium, M. intracellulare and M. scrofulaceum (MAIS) organisms in normal children may result in cervical lymphadenopathy. There is a poor response to anti-tuberculous therapy and surgical excision of infected nodes is necessary. The diagnosis therefore requires consideration in children with cervical lymphadenopathy. A simple in vitro assay is described which may be useful for diagnosis prior to excision. Whole blood is cultured withM. avium purified protein derivative. After 24h the plasma is removed and the concentration of gamma interferon (IFN-γ) quantified by a radioimmunometric assay. In a prospective study of 38 children with neck lesions, 16 showed MAIS organisms isolated from cultures of excised tissue. The level of IFN-γ produced by peripheral blood lymphocytes from children in the MAIS group was significantly greater when compared with children having operations for neck lesions that were not due to MAIS organisms (P〈0.001).

    Notes: The objective of this study was to determine the antibacterial effectiveness of selected hydroxycinnamic acids (caffeic, ferulic, pcoumaric) against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus at pH 5.0, 6.0 and 7.0 and Bacillus cereus at pH 6.0, 6.5 and 7.0. p-Coumaric acid was generally the most effective inhibitor tested causing 〈99.9% inhibition of E. coli at 1000 μg/ml (pH 5.0, 48 hr), S. aureus at 500 μg/ml (pH 5.0, 48 hr), and B. cereus at 500 μg/ml (pH 7.0, 9 hr). Inhibition increased as pH decreased with E. coli and S. aureus but not B. cereus. Bacillus cereus appeared to be the most susceptible strain with 1000 μg/ml of the compounds tested causing 〈99% inhibition at all three pH's.

    Notes: Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) at 150 ppm, and tertiary butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) at 100 ppm, were tested against Staphylococcus aureus A100 in the presence of 50 and 100 mM Ca2+ or Mg2+. The inhibitory activity of BHA was increased by the presence of Ca2+ but not Mg2+ in the suspending buffer. An increase in Ca2+ concentration did not cause additional increase in the activity of this compound. With TBHQ, there was no apparent increase in antibacterial activity by the presence of either Ca2+ or Mg2+.

    Notes: Antimiciobials were evaluated in thioglycollate broth at pH 6.5 for the ability to inhibit growth and toxin production by C. botulinum 12885A and ATCC 7949 (Type B). Methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl parabens (0.1%) and sorbic acid (0.2%) were effective in inhibiting growth of C. botulinum 12885A and ATCC 7949 in broth. Ethyl, propyl, and butyl parabens (0.1%) and sorbic acid (0.2%) inhibited toxin production by both strains in culture medium. Ethyl, propyl, butyl parabens (0.1%) and sorbic acid (0.2%) were individually added to a comminuted pork slurry having salt and sugar, with or without 40 ppm sodium nitrite. Cans were inoculated with a mixture of C. botulinum 12885A and ATCC 7949 spores. The canned product was abused by holding at 27°C and was observed over a 3-month period for swollen cans. Swollen cans were examined for botulinal toxin by the mouse bioassay. Propyl and butyl paraben did not inhibit or delay toxin production. Ethyl paraben with or without nitrite delayed toxin production for 4 wk. Sorbic acid inhibited toxin for 3 wk; when 40 ppm nitrite was added to the sorbic acid treatment, toxin production was delayed for 4 wk.

    Notes: The antimicrobial activity of the phenolic antioxidant, butylated hydroxyanisole (bHA), was evaluated against Pseudomonas fluorescens and Pseudomonas fragi. Pseudomonas fluorescens ATCC 15456 was extremely susceptible to the antimicrobial effects of BHA. In Trypticase Soy Broth (TSB) 100 ppm BHA delayed the growth of P. fluorescens at 22°C and totally inhibited growth at 7°C. In phosphate-peptone buffer, 100 or 200 ppm BHA was lethal to P. fluorescens. The extent of lethality was dependent upon BHA concentration, temperature and prior exposure to sub-inhibitory levels of BHA. In contrast to P. fluorescens, growth occurred with P. fragi ATCC 4973 in TSB even at 400 ppm BHA at 7° and 22°C. Pseudomonas fragi was also more resistant to the lethal effects of BHA in phosphate-peptone buffer.

    Notes: Several concentrations of butylated hyrdoxyanisole (BHA) were tested for effectiveness in inhibiting the growth of C. perfringens. Three strains of C. perfringens were inhibited by 150 ppm BHA in Fluid Thioglycollate Medium. BHA was equally effective as an autoclaved or filter-sterilized solution. Inhibition with 100 ppm was found to increase at the extremes of the pH range tested (5.5-8.5). With 100 and 200 ppm, BHA was found to be bactericidal to C perfringens cells in a dilution buffer. BHA was found to have a synergistic inhibitory effect when used in conjunction with nitrite, sorbic acid, or esters of para-hydroxybenzoic acid (parabens). In the presence of a lipid and surfactant, the antimicrobial activity of BHA against C. perfringens was greatly reduced.

    Notes: The antifungal activities of caffeic, p-coumaric, ferulic, and chloro-genie acids against Saccharomyces cerevisiae were investigated. Caffeic acid was found to exhibit little inhibition of growth, although the lag period was extended in the presence of 1000 ppm. Chloro-genie acid had no effect on the organism. In contrast, p-coumaric acid at 100 ppm increased the lag phase of S. cerevisiae, and above 250 ppm, inhibition after 72 hr growth was proportional to the concentration present. Ferulic acid caused an increase in lag phase at 50 ppm, while as little as 250 ppm resulted in complete inhibition. These results suggest that naturally occurring hydroxycinnamates may interfere with the fermentation of fruits by this yeast.

    Notes: Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), tertiary butylhydroquinone (TBHQ), and potassium sorbate, alone and in combination, were tested for antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella typhimurium in trypticase soy broth. Concentrations of the antimcrobials which resulted in 0-50% growth lnhibition of the test organisms after 72 hr at 32°C were used in combination. Sorbate-BHA and sorbate-TBHQ combinations caused a 12 hr delay in growth initiation of S. aureus. No delay in growth initiation was found with BHA-sorbate combinations against S. typhimurium, but all combinations had synergistic antimicrobial activity against the: microorganism. TBHQ showed little or no effect on growth of S. typhimurium.

    Notes: Exposure of Pseudomonas fluorescens and Pseudomonas fragi cells to butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) resulted in a rapid loss of UV absorbing material and previously incorporated 14C-labeled compounds from the cells. Pseudomonas fluorescens lost a maximum of 15.3% of the incorporated 14C-label when incubated with 200 ppm BHA and 8.0% when incubated with 100 ppm BHA. Pseudomonas fragi was more resistant to BHA losing only 6.4% of the label at 200 ppm and 2.1% at 100 ppm. It was determined that lethality was at least partially due to leakage. The relative percentages of phospho-lipids in P. fragi and major fatty acids in both P. fragi and P. fluorescens were altered by growth in the presence of various concentrations of BHA.
