    Notes: Abstract The microbial ecology of the sulfur cycle in the anaerobic part of Rotsee (Switzerland) was studied. Almost all the sulfate reduction took place at the sediment surface at a rate of 2 mmol SO2−4 reduced m−2 day−1. Approx. 104 sulfate reducers per ml were present in the surface sediments. The sulfide produced was phototrophically consumed mainly by Thiopedia rosea, Lamprocystis roseopersicina and ‘Pelochromatium roseum’ consortia. Thiopedia rosea migrated diurnally about one meter. Bacterial photosynthesis was limited by light and sulfide rather than by temperature.

    Notes: Abstract Bio- and geohopanoid distributions with depth from the upper sediment layers (25 cm) of Lake Constance (Germany) indicate that hopanoid producing bacteria were present in significant amounts either in the water column above the sediment or in the top layer of the sediment. Dihomohopan-32-ol is shown to be representative of the total hopanoid content of the sediment and its distribution is tentatively correlated with the eutrophication process which has occurred in Lake Constance over the past 50 years.

    Notes: The composition of fatty acids and sterols in soil lipid fractions is often used as a global indicator for the status and changes of soil microbial communities. In order to validate such analyses in the context of ectomycorrhizal communities, an experiment was performed in which seedlings of Pinus sylvestris and the fungus Pisolithus tinctorius were grown separately, or combined to form ectomycorrhiza under axenic conditions. Fatty acids of the neutral lipid fraction (NLFAs) and the phospholipid fraction (PLFAs) as well as sterols were identified and quantified by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. When grown separately, the two organisms differed strongly with respect to the sterol composition. Sterols had a much higher relative abundance in the fungus in comparison with the plant, and the two main fungal sterols, ergosterol and 24-ethyllanosta-8,24(24′)-diene-3beta,22zeta-diol (Et lano 8,24), as well as six minor fungal sterols were not found in the plant. On the other hand, the three sterols found in plant roots were absent from the fungus. With regard to fatty acids, the lipids of both organisms contained the same three major PLFAs, namely n16:0, 18:2–9,12c, and 18:1–9c. However, plant lipids contained, in addition, eight PLFAs and five NLFAs that were not present in the fungus. On the other hand, the fungus contained two PLFAs and two NLFAs that were not present in the plant. When the fungus and the plant were brought together, there was a drastic change in the lipid composition of the root: within a day, all the saturated fatty acids in the NLFA fraction increased very strongly and then slowly decreased but remained at an elevated level throughout the experiment. All these saturated fatty acids also started to appear in the extraradical fungal mycelium; they increased steadily and reached their highest levels at the end of the experiment. These results indicate that in symbiosis, the fungus transports plant lipids from the symbiotic interface to the extraradical mycelium. Concerning sterols, the extraradical mycelium acquired only a small amount of plant-specific sterols. However, its ergosterol content steadily decreased whereas the content of Et lano 8,24 remained high, causing the ratio of these two sterols to decrease from 1 : 7 to 1 : 20, whereas in the ectomycorrhizal root, the opposite phenomenon occurred, so that the ratio increased to a value of almost 1 : 1. The marked changes in the composition of the extraradical mycelium were well reflected in a principal component analysis of all lipid components. The present results show that a given ectomycorrhizal fungus may display markedly different lipid compositions in its intraradical and extraradical parts. In addition, they highlight a potential role of plant lipid transfer from the root to the fungus in the functioning of the ectomycorrhizal symbiosis.

    Notes: Zusammenfassung Anhand von 42 Resektionen an 40 tuberkulösen Diabetikern nehmen Autoren Stellung zu den Fragen der chirurgischen Indikation und den Gefahren dieser Behandlungsmethode. Die Kranken worden in drei Gruppen geteilt, je nachdem diese mit 1. idealer Indikation, 2. erhöhtem Risiko oder 3. Grenzindikation zur Operation gelangten. Bei der Mehrzahl der in Gruppe 2 und 3 eingereihten Fälle war es der evolutive Charakter oder die Ausbreitung des Lungenprozesses, welche das Risiko der Operation erhöhten. Demgegenüber beeinträchtigten die diabetischen Sekundärschäden (Angio- bzw. Arteriopathia diabetica) die Operationsaussichten viel seltener. Autoren empfehlen die Resektion als “Ultima ratio”-Lösung selbst bei ausgesprochenen Gefäßschädigungen, falls das Leben des Patienten durch den destruktiven Lungenprozeß unmittelbar bedroht wird. Große Stoffwechsel-Labilität oder hoher Insulinbedarf bilden keineswegs eine Kontraindikation. Autoren betonen die Wichtigkeit, den Stoffwechsel vor der Operation maximal ins Gleichgewicht zu bringen, was sie durch fraktionierte Insulingabe nachBertram sichern, weil dadurch die postoperativ auftretende Stoffwechseldekompensation viel leichter bekämpft werden kann. Beim Einstellen des Stoffwechsels unmittelbar vor der Operation und um dem schwankenden Insulinbedarf der postoperativen Dekompensationsperiode elastischer folgen zu können, empfehlen sie die Benützung des Martonschen “Stoffwechselblattes”.

    Notes: Zusammenfassung Autoren ziehen auf Grund der Erfahrungen, die sie bei 42 Lungenresektionen an 40 Zuckerkranken machten, die Folgerung, daß die Heilresultate des Eingriffs vor allem von der Schwere des Lungenprozesses abhängen. Diabetische Sekundärschäden spielen trotz ihrer bedeutenden Auswirkungen auf das spätere Schicksal des Patienten, beim unmittelbaren Heilerfolg und beim Entstehen von Operationskomplikationen nur eine relative geringe Rolle; eine·chirurgische Kontraindikation bilden sie verhältnismäßig selten. Bei Diabetikern werden Lungenresektionen häufiger von Komplikationen begleitet als bei Patienten mit gesundem Stoffwechsel. Das hängt teils damit zusammen, daß die Tuberkulose eben wegen dem Beisein von Diabetes oft schwerer verläuft, teils steht es mit der Stoffwechselstörung selbst in Zusammenhang. Im Entstehen von Komplikationen messen die Autoren von seiten des Diabetes dem Grad (Insulinbedarf) und dem labilen Charakter der Stoffwechselstörung Bedeutung zu. Die bei Resektionen an Zuckerkranken häufiger vorkommenden Komplikationen können meist erfolgreich behandelt werden, so daß die Heilresultate letzten Endes denen bei Patienten mit gesundem Stoffwechsel gleichkommen.
