    Notes: Twelve steers of known breeding and management history were assigned to two antemortem treatment groups (stress or no stress). After evisceration and splitting, sides in each group were randomly assigned to two electrical stimulation treatments (no stimulation or stimulated intermittently with one amp current for 2 min). ES did not affect any of the carcass characteristics in the stressed group except lean and overall maturity. Although ES did not affect lean color in stressed carcasses, they were darker in color than unstressed carcasses. The unstressed stimulated carcasses were more tender and contained less panel detectable connective tissue than the unstressed-unstimulated carcasses. ES did not improve tenderness of stressed carcasses. Thus, it appears that ES will be effective only on carcasses that have not severely depleted their stores of muscle glycogen.

    Notes: Background Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) pollinosis is one of the most prevalent allergic diseases in Japan. Only three C. japonica allergens, Cry j 1, Cry j 2, and CJP-6, have been characterized. The full IgE-binding spectrum of C. japonica pollen allergens demonstrates that many allergens remain to be identified.Objective The aim of this study was to characterize a novel allergen with a high frequency of IgE binding.Methods The cDNA coding for a high-frequency IgE-binding protein, designated CJP-4, was cloned from the total mRNA of C. japonica pollen. The corresponding native allergen was purified by affinity precipitation with colloidal chitin and gel chromatography. The IgE-binding ability of purified native CJP-4 was characterized by ELISA and ELISA inhibition.Results The CJP-4 cDNA encoded 281 amino acids with significant sequence homology to class IV chitinases. Purified native CJP-4, migrated as a homogeneous 34-kDa protein on SDS-PAGE, revealed endochitinase activity on native PAGE. The purified protein displayed the ability to bind IgE from all patients tested (31/31) in ELISA, whereas Cry j 1 bound to IgE at a 71% frequency (22/31). Pre-incubation with latex C-serum completely inhibited the reaction of pooled sera IgE from patients with C. japonica pollinosis and/or latex allergy to purified CJP-4.Conclusion We identified CJP-4 as a novel and fourth C. japonica chitinase allergen with high IgE-binding frequency. The competitive IgE-binding profile between C. japonica chitinase and latex C-serum indicated that C. japonica chitinase should be an important pan-allergen in C. japonica pollen.

    Notes: The relationship of carcass grade, primal cuts and cooking to vitamin B12, E and D in separable lean beef was studied. The average vitamin B12 content in 471 samples of raw and cooked beef was 3.17 μg/100g. The vitamin B12 content of raw and cooked beef was similar; however, on considering the moisture and fat losses during cooking, there was a 27–33% loss of B12. The vitamin E content of raw and cooked beef was similar and averaged 133 μg/100g for 464 samples. From 33–44% of the original vitamin E in the meat was lost upon cooking. Raw and cooked beef contained 80–100 ng of vitamin D/100g, with 35–42% of the original vitamin D content being lost upon cooking. The content of vitamins E and D in beef is low and of little nutritional importance; however, beef is an important dietary source of vitamin B12.〈section xml:id="abs1-2"〉〈title type="main"〉SUMMARY & CONCLUSIONSRAW OR COOKED separable lean contained approximately 80–100 ng of vitamin D/100g, with 35–42% of the original vitamin D being lost upon cooking. Raw and cooked separable lean contained approximately 40–800 μg of vitamin E/100g with a mean value of 133 μg for 464 samples. From 33–44% of the original vitamin E was lost during cooking. Fat trim contained 300–350 μg of vitamin E/100g. HPLC showed that α-tocopherol was the major E vitamer in meat. Vitamin B-12 content of raw and cooked separable lean ranged from 1 – 10 μg/100g, with a mean value of 3.17 μg B-12/100g for 471 samples. Fat trim contained approximately 1.5 μg of B-12/100g. RID was a feasible method for determining B-12 in meat, with the B-12 values reported herein being appreciably greater than typical values reported for B-12 in beef as determined by microbiological assays. Beef consumption makes an important contribution towards meeting an individual's dietary requirement for B-12.

    Notes: The nutrient composition of Spring and Fall lambs were investigated. Seven retail cuts from carcasses of lambs raised under commercial conditions, and representing two age groups (4–4½ mo and 8–9 mo) were analyzed in both raw and cooked form. Separable lean meat was analyzed for proximate composition, 8 vitamins, 8 inorganic nutrients, cholesterol and 12 fatty acids. Except for moisture, total lipid, riboflavin, niacin, Zn and Fe, there were no practical differences in nutrients between cuts or age groups. Thiamin had the lowest cooking retention with a range of 29.0-63.5%.

    Notes: The nutrient composition of fresh pork was studied in samples from 71 carcasses. On separable lean, nutrient composition was determined for 7 raw retail cuts from one side of each of 11 carcasses, and nutrient retention was determined on the 7 matching cuts from the other side that had been cooked by common household methods. Loins from 60 additional carcasses were analyzed to determine whether USDA grades 1, 2, and 3 and region of production affected nutrient composition. The data indicated that variation in nutrient composition of pork is more dependent on the retail cut within the carcass than either the grade or the region of production of the carcass. Cooking method significantly affected retention of most of the nutrients analyzed.

    Notes: Paired loins from 18 barrow and gilt carcasses were randomly selected to evaluate the effect of marketing on the nutrient composition of fresh pork loins. The paired loin from one side was shipped through a predetermined marketing system, while the control loin was transported immediately back to Beltsville, MD. Rib chops from each loin were analyzed for key nutrients. The overall results from this study indicate that pork loins subjected to extreme marketing conditions have weights, appearance and quality traits and nutritional composition similar to loins shipped from a slaughter plant directly to the research facility. Thus, pork samples handled by a controlled research technique and sampled at the point of slaughter are basically equivalent to what the consumer purchases at the retail level.

    Notes: Summary Feline leukemia virus (FeLV) is a horizontally transmitted agent of the domestic cat which is known to be associated with wide spectrum of diseases of the hematopoietic system. In the present study, proviral DNAs of FeLV proviruses were examined in the tumor cells of natural killer cell lineage which is very rare in cats. In the chromosomal DNA of the tumor cells, 5 distinct bands corresponding to exogenous FeLV provirus genomes were detected by digestion withEcoRI which does not cut most FeLV isolates. Five clones of pLC1, pLC2, pLC3, pLC4, and pLC5 obtained from the 5 respective bands were analysed by restriction endonuclease mapping and Southern blot hybridization using gene-specific probes of FeLV. The results have clearly demonstrated that pLC4 and pLC5 contained large deletions in thepol and part ofgag regions, while the full-length proviruses could be observed in pLC1 and pLC2. Furthermore, pLC3 contained part of a variant FeLV genome having anEcoRI site in itsgag region. The molecular clones of defective and variant FeLV in this study may be useful for the further examination of tumorigenesis of large granular lymphoma in the cat.

    Notes: Summary Between 1979 and 1990 reconstruction using a ceramic prosthesis with a polycrystal alumina segment and a monocrystal alumina stem was carried out in 65 patients after the resection of malignant or benign aggressive bone tumors. Resection of 18 osteosarcomas, 5 chondrosarcomas, 9 other sarcomas, 10 giant cell tumors, 20 metastatic bone tumors, and 3 other bone tumors was followed by replacement of 17 proximal femurs, 12 distal femurs, 12 proximal tibia, 11 proximal humeri, 3 distal radii, 5 midshafts of the long bone, 2 pelvises, and 3 other parts. Results were rated excellent in 4 cases, good in 43, fair in 13, and poor in 4. In the cases with benignly aggressive or low-grade malignant tumors and those with tumors of the proximal femur, proximal tibia, or midshaft, satisfactory results can be obtained. Four skin ulcers, three dislocations, three loosenings, two infections, and two breaks were noted. Close interfacing between the ceramic prosthesis and the bone was observed radiologically in all cases with cementless fixation except in cases with high-grade malignancies in the knee joint. These results demonstrate that the ceramic prosthesis can be beneficial for the management of patients with benignly aggressive or low-grade malignant bone tumors who have retained adequate muscle strength around the joint even after tumor resection.

    Notes: Abstract The postnatal development of neuropeptide Y- and calcitonin gene-related peptide-immunoreactive (NPY-IR and CGRP-IR) nerve fibers in the rat urinary bladder was investigated using whole-mount preparations and cryostat sections. In newborn and 3-day-old rats, many NPY-IR nerve fibers were observed in the subserous and muscle layers. Many NPY-IR nerve cell bodies clustered at branching points of the subserous nerve bundles. Within 4 weeks after birth, these cell bodies drastically decreased in number and spread along the bundles, although the number of NPY-IR nerve fibers increased moderately. In contrast, CGRP-IR nerve fibers in newborn and 3-day-old rats were less developed, and no CGRP-IR nerve cell body was observed in any rat. However, CGRP-IR nerve fiber distribution in the urinary tissues conspicuously increased within 4 weeks after birth. Especially, an increase of the infraepithelial fibers showing a meshwork appearance was prominent in the fundus and corpus of the bladder. The infra- and intraepithelial CGRP-IR nerve meshwork of the ventral wall was more dense than that of the trigone. At 4 weeks, NPY-IR and CGRP-IR nerves were similar to those of the adult rat (8–12 weeks old). The present study suggests a correlation between the development of the peripheral nervous system in the urinary bladder and maturation of micturition behavior in the rat.
