    Notes: Bromination of the thiazole ring by the enzyme chloroperoxidase, produced by the fungus Caldariomyces fumago, was demonstrated. Both 2-acetoacetamido-4-methylthiazole and 2-acetamidothiazole were brominated on C-5 of the thiazole ring in the presence of chloroperoxidase, bromide, and hydrogen peroxide in 0.06 M Phosphate solution at pH 3.0. No reaction occurred in the absence of enzyme.

    Notes: A protease, excreted by a sporogeneous strain of B. megaterium, growing exponentially in a minimum glucose ammonium medium, was isolated. It is a neutral endopeptidase, stabilized by Ca++, inhibited by o-phenanthroline, but not by di-isopropylfluorophosphate. The specificity, studied on insulin B-chain, glucagon, cytochrome c, and dipeptides substrates, indicated the need for a dipeptide backbone with both substituted amino and carboxyl groups. A requirement was observed for a nonpolar lateral chain in the amino acid whose amino group was involved in the peptide bond (Leu, Phe, Ala, He, Val). Rates of hydrolysis varied also with the amino acid whose carboxyl group was involved (e.g., His 〉 Ser 〉 Ala 〉 Gly). In complex medium, supplemented with Yeast Extract, the biosynthesis of the protease was repressed during growth, but the same enzyme was excreted during sporulation. The repression was apparently of the same nature as that controlling sporulation during and after growth (e.g., repression by a mixture of amino acids or high concentration of glucose). An asporogeneous mutant showed a normal product ion of protease under all conditions, and a low intracellular protease turnover after growth. A mutant unable to produce protease showed a normal sporulation and a high protein turnover. This protease, here termed megapeptidase, seems to be a typical growth enzyme, not related to either the sporulation process or to the protein turnover after growth.

    Notes: Candida lipolytica, strain Phaff, was grown on 1.0% 1-hexadecene as sole source of carbon. Several oxidative intermediates were isolated and identified. Based on these intermediates two pathways are proposed for the degradation of the 1-alkene via the methyl group and the double bond. Subterminal oxidation of the 1-alkene was also indicated. Cell yield, lipid content, fatty acid profile and 1, 2-diol concentration are given for various rates of aeration during growth in a fermentor.

    Notes: It has been shown that alkylbenzenes which do not support growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exert a stimulatory or inhibitory effect on the utilization of n-alkanes by this organism. The effect is a function or the number of methyl substitutions to the benzene ring and the concentration of aromatic hydrocarbon. The alkylbenzenes have been shown to exert the stimulatory and inhibitory effect, on all phases of growth. The data suggests different mechanisms involved in the inhibition by benzene and p-xylene but a similar mechanism by all of the stimulatory compounds. Warburg data demonstrates changes in the rate of oxygen uptake in the presence of trimethylbenzene at different stages of the fermentation. The release of water soluble material in the presence of trimethylbenzene suggests a permeability effect on the cells.

    Notes: Some mathematical models, which have been used to describe batch growth in fermentations with two liquid phases present, are used to predict the behavior of continuous fermentations in a chemostat. Two types of dispersed systems are considered in this investigation. In the first, type, it is assumed that the composition of the dispersed phase is such that, increased substrate utilization results in a decreased substrate concentration with no change in the interfacial area. In the second type of system, the dispersed phase is assumed to be pure substrate; therefore, the substrate concentration in the dispersed phase remains constant but the interfacial area is affected by changes in dilution rate. Three special cases are examined for each type of system in order to examine the effect of the interfacial area, the phase equilibrium constant, and the mass transfer coefficient on system performance. Comparison of two of the models with available experimental data shows fair agreement, between model and data.

    Notes: In the course of submerged cultivation of low-production and industrial production strains of Streptomyces aureofaciens, the activity of enzymes of the tricurboxylic acid cycle was studied. The activities of citrate synthase (EC 4.1.3.7), aconitate hydratase (EC 4.2.1.3), isocitrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.42), fumarate hydratase (EC 4.2.1.2), and malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37) were estimated spectrophotometrically in cell-free preparations. In the growth phase, mainly the initial reactions of the cycle were active with both strains. In production-phase, the activities of enzymes in the low-production strain were 2-5 × higher than in the production strain. Benzylthioeyanate, at a concentration of 5 × l0-5M, stimulated chlortetracycline production of both strains with accompanying decrease in activity of the enzymes of the tricarboxylic acid cycle. The role of the tricarboxylic acid cycle in control of chlortetracycline biosynthesis is discussed.

    Notes: An oxygen probe is developed, using the principle of the silver-lead galvanic cell, covered with a plastic membrane. It is steam sterilizable while filled with water; after sterilization, water is easily exchanged for the electrolyte, potassium bicarbonate. Flat plastic membranes up to a thickness of about 0.1 mm can be applied. The membrane is secured and stretched in a special way, which guarantees a leakproof seal. The outer shape of the probe has a tulip-form and consists of polished stainless steel, except for the electrode face. The electrode is suitable for laboratory and industrial use and its components are completely standardized.Almost linear response for O2-partial pressures up to atmospheric is obtained with 0.001 in. and 0.002 in. FEP-Teflon membranes. 90% response time is of the order of 10-15 sec for the 0.001 in. membrane, Residual current is almost negligible (〈 1 μA).

    Notes: Dissolved oxygen and glucose concentrations have been independently maintained at various concentrations for extended periods during growth of Candida utilis in continuous culture. Simultaneous observations of cytochrome concentration, growth rate, rates of uptake of oxygen and glucose and rates of production of CO2, ethanol and acid have been made during steady states at various levels of oxygen and glucose. There is an inverse relationship between dissolved oxygen and cytochrome and between glucose cocentration and cytochrome.Studies of the transient state following a step change from high to low dissolved oxygen show that there is a lag of about 10 hr during which there is no change in the above parameters. This is followed by rapid oscillatory changes in cytochrome content and a change to a more fermentative metabolism.

    Notes: This paper illustrates the type of conclusions which may be reached by the use of an electrode for measuring oxygen tension in fermentation broths. The critical oxygen level, based on oxygen uptake, and the minimum oxygen tension necessary for maximum antibiotic synthesis for two commercial antibiotic fermentations, capreomycin and cephalosporin C, were studied. Capreomycin yields were depressed at an oxygen tension which was slightly below the critical oxygen level. Cephalosporin C synthesis was depressed at an oxygen tension higher than the critical oxygen level.

    Notes: On increasing aeration rate in chemostat cultures of E. coli the redox potential (Eh) of the culture changes from -l50 mv to +250 mv. During this period only a slight increase in measured dissolved oxygen concentration is observed.It is suggested that Eh be used as a control variable for aeration in the oxygen limited growth condition, whilst dissolved oxygen concentration be used as control variable in the presence of excess oxygen.Change in cytochrome b1, three tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes and hydrogenase can be related to culture Eh. These changes are discussed.

    Notes: In beer fermentation, yeast cells are kept in suspension, despite their higher density, by natural agitation created by ascending CO2 bubbles. Yeast cells are unable to nucleate bubbles but instead release CO2 in a soluble form in such a way that the medium tends to become supersaturated.A higher concentration of yeast cells and the presence of solid particles cause the formation of bubbles at the bottom of the fermenter and practically only there. The rising bubbles grow and accelerate by sweeping the CO2 formed throughout the fermenter by the suspended yeast cells, thereby creating a fluid regime. A mathematical expression relating the bubble agitation power to the fermentation parameters was obtained and used to design more efficient fermenter shapes.

    Notes: The presence of microorganisms have been shown to increase by over 40% the mass transfer rates from small oxygen bubbles at low Reynolds number flow. This increase was found to be due only to the microbe cells as inert particles disrupting the quasi-static liquid surface film surrounding the gas bubble and thus decreasing the gas-liquid interfacial resistance. The observed increase in oxygen mass transfer rates was not dependent on cell viability, no effect was noted due to cell-liquid interfacial resistance, nor was the phenomenon due to altering the physical properties of the liquid during cell propagation. These results were obtained in a unique plexiglass apparatus designed for observing under a microscope a small (0.4 mm dia.) stationary oxygen bubble collapsing into a flowing fluid. The oxygen bubble was injected by a small hypodermic needle and the fluid was suspensions of the yeast Candida intermedia, the bacterium Pseudomonas ovalis, 0.3μ alumina, as well as base points of cell free broth and pure water. Several well-known chemical inhibitors of oxidative phosphorylation were used to limit cell oxygen uptake. Calculations of oxygen mass transfer rates were compared with the semi-empirical model of Frössling, the circulating sphere model of Levich, and the rigid sphere concentration boundary layer model of Fried-lander, the latter two showing strong Reynolds number dependence that may be due to radial fluid motion.

    Notes: With a chemostat culture, both the bacterial growth rate and the growth environment can be independently varied between wide limits. Changing the growth rate of Aerobacter aerogenes organisms (in either a glycerol-limited medium or a Mg2+-limited medium) affected the bacterial cell wall content; invariably slow growing organisms were smaller than faster growing ones and had a higher cell wall/biomass ratio. Changing the growth rate also influenced the composition of the walls but in this respect glycerol-limited organisms and Mg2+-limited organisms behaved differently. Thus, whereas increasing the growth rate of glycerol-limited cultures caused the cell wall 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonic acid (KDO) and heptose contents to increase progressively, with Mg2+-limited cultures they decreased. Furthermore, although KDO and heptose are both components of the lipopolysaccharide layer, their ratio varied with growth rate, and with the nature of the growth-limitation, indicating changes in the lipopolysaccharide composition. These results are discussed with particular reference to the influence of environment on cell wall content and composition, and the use of continuous culture for the production of bacterial vaccines.

    Notes: An engineering-scale procedure for the recovery of 300-400 g batches of mixed transfer ribonucleic acids is described. Semicontinuous growth of E. coli K-12 MO7 yielded 77 kg of harvested cells in four days. Phenol extraction and ethanol precipitation recovered a crude tRNA material that was further purified by DKAE-cellulose chromatography in runs of 1 × 106 A260 units each on a 6 × 30 in. column using a 240 1, gradient elution. The purified tRNAs were partially concentrated and resolved into three groups.

    Notes: Streptomyces peucetius var. caesius, obtained from S. peucetius, the daunomycin producing microorganism, by mutagenic treatment, differs from the parent culture by the color of the vegetative and aerial mycelia and by its antibiotic, producing ability. S. peucetius var. caesius accumulates adriamycin in submerged and aerated culture on a medium containing glucose, brewer's yeast, and inorganic, salts both in shake flasks and in stirred fementers. Isolation of the product is performed by solvent extraction, chromatography on buffered cellulose columns, and crystallization as the hydrochloride. The new antitumor agent, adriamycin, is the 14-hydroxv derivative of daunomyein.

    Notes: A brief review of the development of the research on erythorbic acid fermentation was presented. A previously proposed scheme of the acid biosynthesis has been proved to be correct. D-glucono-γ-lactone dehydrogenase was purified to 50 fold and compared with other lactone dehydrogenases. For the purpose of commercial development, screening and mutagenie treatments of strains and studies on fundamental cultural conditions were carried out. Penicillium, but no other genera, was obtained as a producer. The experiments of ultraviolet irradiation and various cultural conditions were successful in elevating the yield of the acid over 40% in jar-fermentor to glucose supplied. The continuous multibed extraction system of anion-exchange resin was developed and a yield of 19.2% of the acid from fermentation broth was obtained.

    Notes: The participation of polyketides in the biogenesis of natural products has long been bolstered by chemical analogies. Many isotopic tracer studies have validated the acetate-polymalonate route, via presumptive extended poly-β-carbonyl intermediates, to a variety of fungal metabolites. Though implicit as antibiotic precursors, the ephemeral polyketides have not been isolated, nor perhaps with the exception of acetoacetate, can oligoketides become incorporated intact into secondary metabolites. However, a prototypical oligoketides in its stable lactone form, methyltriacetic lactone (3, 6-dimethyl-l-hydroxy-2-pyrone), has been obtained from the tropolone-producing mold P. Stipitatum. A convenient synthesis of this metabolite, by methylation of triacetic lactone followed by partition chromatographic separation of the resultant positional isomers, has been devised. In an experiment with 14C-formate, it was shown that the hypothetical, enzyme-bound polyketide precursor to methyltriacetic lactone is probably involved in stipitatie arid formation, and that the origin of the “extra” methyl or methyl-derived carbons of both substances arises from the identical “C1” pool. Radioactive tracer experiments concerning the biogenesis of pulvilloric acid, a fairly unstable antibiotic substance produced by P. Pulvillorum, showed that its exocyclic carboxyl is formed following initial methyl transfer, whereas the ring system of the molecule is essentially acetate-polymalonate derived. In order to test the hypothesis that methyl-branched C14 polyketide precursors to pulvilloric acid exist and may become integrated into the fatty acid multienzyme complex, presumptive fatty acid congeners to pulvilloric acid such as. 1-methylmyristie, 4-methyllauric, or 2-methyllauric acids were sought. These substances were, however, absent from the mycelial fatty acid spectrum, as well as from the fatty acid moieties of a crystalline glyceridc mixture obtained from the beer. Alternative approaches to the detection or isolation of polyketides are discussed.

    Notes: A process was devised for the synthesis of tris(hydroxymethyl)acetic acid by means of bio-oxidation of pentaerythritol. A flavobacterium able to grow on pentaerythritol was isolated from the soil. Mutants were obtained that, were deficient, in their pentaerythritol oxidation system. These mutants could not grow on pentaerythritol, but when grown on an assimilable carbon source; they oxidized pentaerythritol to tris(hydroxymethyl)acetic acid. This conversion readily took place in a medium consisting of 20 g pentaerythritol, 10 g yeast extract, and 2 g acetic acid (neutralized) per liter. Since the mutants were unable to metabolize tris(hydroxymethyl)acetic acid, theoretical conversion yields were attainable. When pentaerythritol was added stepwise and the acid formed was neutralized continuously, 95-100% yields were obtained in concentrations of the order of 60 g/l.

    Notes: 9α-Hydroxy-19-norandrostenedionc (9α-hydroxy-Δ4-estrene 3, 17-dione) (IV) was prepared by fermentation of 19-norandroslenedione with Corynespora melanis or Norcardia restriclus. When incubated with a growing culture of Arthrobacter simplex or its acetone-dried cells, IV was converted to 9α-hydroxyestronc (VII) and 9-keto-9, 10-secoestrone (VI). 9α-Hydroxyestrone undergoes spontaneous as well as enzymic dehydration to form Δ9(11)-estrone (IX). Both VI and IX have been isolated and identified as such while VII was isolated as its 3-acetate.

    Notes: The research carried out by several scientists has made possible the industrial preparation of β-carotene by fermentation. A fungus, Blakeslea trispora, abundantly synthesizes carotenoids when its two opposite forms are cultivated together in a special fatty medium. When ionones or other natural substances are introduced into the culture, a very obvious increase in the biosynthesis of carotenoids, more specifically of β-carotene, is obtained.Our own work has shown that; (1) several synthetic products chemically related to β-ionone, such as 2,6,6-trimethyl-l-acetyleyelohexene, can advantageously replace either partially or totally the ionones as inductors of the biosysnthesis of β-carotene; (2) various nitrogen-containing substances when added to the culture medium can considerably enhance the biosysnthesis of carotenoids while sometimes very specically orienting it. Their action comes on top of that of the ionones or their substitutes; actually this action is unexplained.Thus certain amides, imides, lactams, hydrazides, or substituted pyradines, and in particular succinimide and isonicotinoylhydrazine, have produced a two or threefold increase in the quantity of β-carotene present in the culture media of Blackeslea trispora.Conversely some heterocyclic substances such as pyridine itself or imidazole totally inhibit the biosysnthesis of β-carotene but induce the production of very important quantities of lycopene.

    Notes: Cultivation of Norcardia sp., Mycobacterium phlei, and Candida lipolytica in inorganic salt solution containing n-alkanes C10-C20 as solo carbon and energy source was investigated. Generation times of 0.5-7.0 hr were typical during the exponential growth phase. The final cell concentrations (dry weight) were usually 9-26 g/l with n-alkane mixtures ranging from n-decane through n-eicosane. A linear dependence was found between the production of cell mass and the consumption of n-alkanes. The rest concentration of n-alkanes in the cell mass is in all experiments smaller than 0.5% (w/w). Cell yields were Ysub 60-142% and for Ye 50-97% based on n-alkane utilization. In one case, with the Nocardia NBZ 23, the substrate specifity on hydrocarbons and on a n-alkane mixture C10-C20 was studied. The cell mass recovered from the fermentations contained 47.8-57.7% carbon, 5.6-9.95% nitrogen, 7.2-9.4% hydrogen, 35-62% crude protein, and 6-36% lipid. Cellular protein and lipid synthesized by an organism is influenced by the type of nitrogen source. The amino acid, glucosamine, muramic acid, 2,6-diaminopimelinic acid, and fatty acid distribution in organisms grown on n-alkanes compared with a corresponding fermentation on glucose as sole carbon source were also estimated.

    Notes: Current methodology now makes it possible to establish in culture a variety of mammalian cells which perform organ-specific functions during serial propagation for periods of months or years. This report describes the results of experiments with animal and human cells that produce growth hormone, adrenocortical steroid hormones, thyrocalcitonin, and parathyroid hormone. Within the next decade it should be possible to use cell culture methods for manufacturing purposes to produce hormones and other valuable cellular products which are difficult to obtain in other ways. At first it may be necessary to use neoplastic cells for this purpose; but evidence is accumulating to suggest that it may eventually be possible to establish in culture normal, functional animal and human cells.

    Notes: A theoretical study was made on the dynamic behavior of a single-vessel continuous fermentation subject to a growth inhibition at, high concentration of the rate limiting substrate. Phase plane plotting and stability analysis showed three steady states to exist; namely, a “washout”; state, a nontrivial stable state, and an unstable state. Whether the system attains a nontrivial steady state or is to be washed-out depends upon the initial values of the cell and/or substrate concentration(s). Since this property is a characteristic feature of the present system, an experimental procedure was suggested to insure a stable operation in practice.

    Notes: Three different established strains of mammalian cells were grown in chemically defined medium in large cultures. The degree of proliferation of cells of an established strain from human skin in large stationary cultures was significantly greater in the presence of methylcellulose (medium NCTC 135M) than in its absence (medium NCTC 135). The relatively fragile cells of a derivative of monkey kidney LLCMK2 strain were carried in large stationary cultures through 11 transfer generations during 152 days. The presence of methylcellulose was associated with higher cell population levels, proliferation rates, and cell viability. Cells of this strain utilized glucose at an extremely high rate; during two representative periods the rate averaged 1.2 mg/106 cells/day in cultures on medium 135M and 1.9 mg in medium 135.In a 53-day experiment with mouse fibroblast 2071-L cells, the cells in suspension culture during the first 28 days went through the normal lag, logarithmic plateau, and initial decline phases in medium 135M, and then were transferred to large stationary cultures, where they proliferated for 7 days at uniformly high rates in both medium 135 and medium 135M. It appeared that cells of strain 2071-L in such stationary cultures had no need for Methocel as a protective agent. Glucose utilization rates while these cells were carried in large stationary cultures averaged 2-4 times the rates while they were in suspension cultures: about 0.8 and 0.2 mg/106 cells/day, repectively.

    Notes: An analysis is presented of the effects on substrate utilization and cell growth of varying the volume distribution of and the input distribution to a model continuous-culture unit consisting of three stirred tanks. The model is used to establish the best volume and input distributions and to indicate the effects of mixing imperfections. The Michaelis-Menten rate expression is utilized, including an endogenous respiration term, and results are presented on unique triaxial charts. Of the distributions considered, maximum substrate utilization is achieved with 60% of the total volume in the first stage, 20% in the second stage, and 20% in the third stage and with all of the input to the first stage. At a constant fractional input to the third stage; variation in the ratio of inputs to the first and second stages has virtually no effect, except in the case that a critical dilution is exceeded. At a constant input ratio to the first two stages, an increase in the fractional input to the third stage always decreases efficiency. Three stages, regardless of relative size, are always better than one. Except for endogenous respiration effects, cell growth parallels substrate utilization.

    Notes: An automatically working test arrangement for the permanent analysis of O2 and CO2 in microbiological cultures is described. The measuring principle is based on the paramagnetic properties of oxygen and on the absorption of infrared by carbon dioxide. The preparation of the gas for measuring and the correction of the recording are indicated. The formula of correction was programmed and the values were calculated for a range of 3%. The routine correction of analysis values is done with a nomogram established on the basis of these individual values. The advantages of the described test arrangement are illustrated by two examples of growth experiments on Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

    Notes: This study reports some findings on the effects of centrifugation on the viability of mammalian cells. The authors used Burkitt lymphoma cells cultivated in a synthetic medium containing 10% fetal calf serum for all experiments. Batch centrifugations were conducted in a RC2-B centrifuge (Ivan Sorvall, Incorporated, Norwalk, Connecticut USA) operated at 0 and 25°C. During centrifugation we exposed the cells to gravitational fields ranging from 24,800 to 42.200g. The results showed that at, 0°C and 25,800 or 42,000g no loss in cell viability occurred for up to 90 min exposures in the centrifugal field. However, at 25°C and for gravitational fields of 24,800 and 42,000g, there were appreciable losses in cell viability. Continuous centrifugation studies in the Sharples supercentrifuge (Division of Penn Salt Corporation, Warminister, Pennsylvania USA) were also conducted with bowl speeds up to 28,000 rpm (19,000g) and flow rates ranging from 1.4 to 20 1, hr. Slight, losses in cell viability were noted and postulated as caused by the shear stresses encountered by the cells. Some pumping studies using the lymphoma cells substantiate this conclusion.

    Notes: New trends and developments in vaccines emphasized the growing need for safety tests of increased complexity, rather than a need for ultrasophisticated and complex devices. The Vaccine Development Branch of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, operating with an annual budget of $6,000,000 has the task of expediting the collaborative efforts of 50 laboratories for developing, producing, and testing experimental vaccine lots. Rubella has a major priority; other priorities are assigned to respiratory syncytial, parainfluenza, adenoviruses, influenza, and rhinoviruses, and Mycoplasma pneumoniae. To accomplish this requires a very expensive and complex program involving rapid information exchange and increased emphasis on safety testing with regard to extraneous viruses and the oncogenic potential of the vaccines. The latter need resulted from such experience as that with the Salk vaccine and the tumorproducing potential of some adenoviruses. Electron microscopy has been useful in discovering possible viral contaminants. Of all material produced for experimental work, from 65 to 70% is used for safety tests.

    Notes: The production of large quantities of microbial mass, or their by-products, frequently requires aeration and mixing of fluid media. This operation often results in copious production of foam which cannot be exhausted with the effluent air or gas. Foam is usually controlled with antifoam agents which may interfere with product purity, oxygen uptake, and with subsequent product, handling. The process herein described obviates the requirement for antifoam agents or other foam-control methods. In essence, the air (or other gases) and foam in the headspace are continuously withdrawn, entrained in the intake side of a self-priming pump, and reintroduced into the bulk of the process liquid medium. The headspace may be enriched with oxygen or other gases.

    Notes: It has been demonstrated experimentally that the thickness of fluid overlay in conventional tissue culture systems limits the oxygen available to mammalian cells growing as a submerged monolayer. A rocker culture system is described which circumvents critical problems associated with thin film culture while permitting nearly unlimited access of oxygen to the cell monolayer. Good growth of primary hepatic cells as isolated sheets has been obtained.

    Notes: A mathematical model based on the Einstein law of photochemical equivalence is proposed to describe the batch growth of unicellular algae. The model was applied in an integrated form to cell concentration versus growth time data taken over an extended range of cell concentrations which include both the regions of “exponential” and “linear” growth. It is shown that a certain function of cell concentration contained in the integrated form of the model is linearly dependent on the growth time over both the “exponential” and “linear” growth regions.

    Notes: The foam separation technique of microflotation was studied using A. aerogenes as the test organisms. Gas flow rate, collector and alum (when used) concentrations, and frother dose were held constant. In contrast to E. coli, previously reported, A. aerogenes are removed using both lauric acid and laurylamine as the collectors without prior coagulation with alum. The removals are improved after coagulation, with laurylamine being the more efficient collector. In all cases the removals decrease upon increasing the pH above about 8.

    Notes: The intracellular levels of seven enzymes in mouse LS cells growing in suspension culture at controlled dissolved oxygen partial pressures (pO2) have been measured. During the growth of each culture large fluctuations were observed in the levels of some enzymes, particularly aldolase and cytochrome oxidase. Mean values for the concentration of each enzyme during the growth phase have been calculated. These results are discussed in relation to previous observations made on the growth of mouse LS cells.

    Notes: The inhibitory effect of ethanol concentration p in a medium on the specific rates of growth μ and ethanol production ν of a specific strain of baker's yeast was studied in a chemostat, where except for ethanol as the product, only the concentration of glucose S was controlled to limit the metabolic activity of the yeast. This was designed to supplement the previous findings from the batch experiment, in which ethanol was added artificially and no substrate components were limiting the metabolism of the same yeast, that μ = μ0e-k1p and ν = ν0e-k2p, where k1 and k2 are empirical constants and subscript the 0 denotes respective values at p = 0. The effects of p on the values of μ and ν were confirmed by the Lineweaver-Burk plot to belong to noncompetitive inhibition. The formulas here for μ and ν as affected by p, if extrapolated to the case of no limiting substrates, were in good agreement in respective forms with those derived previously from the batch experiment, though the values of corresponding coefficients in these formulas were different. The differential equations for μ and ν as functions of both p and S and, in addition for the rate of glucose consumption as correlated by the yield factors either with the cell growth rate or the rate of ethanol production, were solved properly with a digital computer. A kinetic, pattern calculated so far was discussed with reference to the data obtained in the batch experiment and those relevant to actual “sake” brewing.

    Notes: A survey of interactions of membrane filters with viruses has included 28 types of membranes, 4 types of enteroviruses, and 1 reovirus. Losses of these viruses in filtration, due to adsorption to the filter membranes, appear to be governed by three factors: the chemical composition of the filter membrane, the ratio of pore diameter to the diameter of the virus particle, and the presence of substances, such as those occurring in serum, which interfere with adsorption. Membranes of cellulose triacetate and of certain other materials have a very low affinity for these viruses. Cellulose triacetate filters adsorb virtually none when the pore size exceeds the virus diameter by a factor of more than 3. At porosities nearer the virus diameter, even low-affinity membranes adsorb large quantities of virus unless serum or some other additive interferes. Cellulose nitrate membranes, in the absence of interfering substances, adsorb enterovirus significantly at a pore size 285 times the virus diameter.

    Notes: Continuous cultivation of the yeast Candida lipolytica on gas oil was studied from the viewpoint of biomass production and oil deparaffination. Optimum conditions wore found at the dilution rate D = 0.16-0.19 when biomass productivity 1.7 g/l/hr and yield coefficient. y = 0.92 were achieved. At deparaffination to the same freezing point, more than double the production of biomass and deparaffined oil during a given time unit was achieved in a continuous process than in batch cultivation. Consumption of substrate was followed in both cultivation processes and it was confirmed that individual n-alkanes of gas oil were degraded at various rates and yields. Results proved optimum cultivation conditions to depend on concentration and composition of the paraffinic fraction of gas oil used. To achieve these conditions the continuous process may be controlled by choice; of suitable dilution rate and concentration of gas oil.

    Notes: An interesting cholinergic compound has been isolated from the fungus Rhizoctonia leguminicola grown on extracts of red clover hay. The compound was characterized as 1-acetoxy-8-aminooctahydroindolizidine and given the name “slaframine.” It has been shown that slaframine is not the active compound but is converted to the active metabolite by liver microsomal enzymes. Physiological studies with slaframine point out that it is a potent stimulator of exocrine glands. In addition, its long duration of action and low toxicity suggest that it may have therapeutic value. Preliminary data suggest that slaframine is a potent stimulator of pancreatic activity, and its long duration of action results in a stimulation of protein synthesis by the gland.

    Notes: Although the basic parameters for ethylene oxide sterilization are established, it is sometimes difficult to attain in practice where the principal limiting factor is moisture availability. There are situations which can limit or enhance the dynamics of sterilization. Such factors, if overlooked, could upset experiments and lead to erroneous conclusions, or defeat the sterilization process entirety. Such are, namely: stratification effects, diffusion barriers, moisture-reducing effects, polymerization, and temperature distribution gradients.

    Notes: The growth of batch-cultivated yeast Candida lipolytica on three kinds of gas oil using mineral medium was studied. A linear dependence was found between the production of yeast biomass and the consumption of n-alkanes, while the decrease of freezing point of gas oil during cultivation had a distinct course. This disproportion was explained by different degradation of individual n-alkanes contained in gas oil. The rate of degradation of pentadecane, hexadecane, and heptadecane was the same during the entire cultivation. On the contrary, in the first phase the utilization of shorter chain n-alkanes, nonane to tetradecane, was more rapid while that of longer chain homologs, octadecane to pentacosane, lagged. Rapid utilization of longer chain n-alkanes did not occur before the concentration of the other n-alkanes decreased. Only then the rapid decrease of freezing point appeared.

    Notes: The influence of agitation and aeration on growth and on production of glucose oxidase of Asp. niger has been studied. It was found that both rate of growth and glucose oxidase production was higher at an agitation speed of 700 rpm than at 460 rpm. Further increase in speed of agitation resulted in neither a higher rate of growth nor a higher glucose oxidase activity. Total glucose oxidase activity was highest in a medium containing 5% sugar (at an agitation speed of 700 rpm) and did not get higher when the sugar concentration of the medium was increased to 7%. When pure oxygen was bubbled through the culture the rate of growth of the culture (in the linear phase) was 95 mg. mycelial dry wt./100 ml./hr., and only 61 mg. when air was applied. The glucose oxidase activity of oxygenated culture was double the activity of aerated culture. Viscosity of the homogenized culture became higher with higher concentration of mycelia. The viscosity of oxygenated culture was found to be lower than that of aerated culture.

    Notes: A relatively simple, autoclavable medium was developed that would support the growth of the mouse fibroblast (MFL) cell line in suspension culture. This medium was prepared in three stages with decreasing quantities of serum. As the serum was reduced from 5% to none, the amount of Bacto-Peptone was increased from none to 0.5%. The reduction and finally elimination of serum did not affect proliferation adversely, but actually seemed to produce more rapid growth and higher levels of cell population.

    Notes: The authors have utilized a previously proposed mathematical equation (introduced originally for development of empirical equations) as a useful tool for evaluation of first-order reaction rate constants. By assigning physical significance to the parameter α, the equation can be utilized in obtaining excellent estimates for limiting boundary values and velocity constants.

    Notes: As a rate equation of microbial cell growth, the Monod equation is widely used. However, this equation cannot fully correspond to real courses of microbial cell growth in many batch cultivations. Especially, predicted values based on this equation do not agree with observed values in many continuous cultivations. In this paper, which introduces new concepts of critical concentration and coefficient of consumption activity, the growth rate equation which corresponds to the whole period including lag period is newly derived and characteristics of microbial cell growth in batch cultivation are clarified. Further, applying the new rate equation to continuous cultivation, a general equation with which to calculate cell concentration is derived and characteristics of microbial cell growth in continuous cultivation are clarified. The calculated values of cell concentration based on the new theory showed quite good agreement with the observed values in both batch and continuous cultivation.

    Notes: The rate of dissolution and dehydration of CO2 in a liquid model system was investigated. Components in the model system established the main conditions which may exist, in the extracellular space of a microbiological culture liquid. The charge in voltage of a glass electrode was measured which indicated the formation of H+ ions in the H2CO3 ⇌ HCO3- H+ reaction. The rate of CO2 hydration increased with the increase of temperature from 0 to 40°C. Likewise the equilibrium of the reaction was shifted towards the forward reaction. Similar results were observed when the tip velocity of the impeller was increased. Data suggest that agitation promotes the dissolution of CO2 in the culture liquid through the reduction of gas-liquid film resistance in the diffusion of this gas. The rate of hydration of CO2 into the bulk of the liquid was independent of pCO2 above the surface of the liquid but depended on pCO2 in the gas bubble within the liquid. The concentration of HCO3- was, furthermore, influenced by the buffer components, buffer capacity, and the viscosity of the system. Since pCO2 and the HCO3- concentration in the extracellular space depend on both physical and chemical factors, the ventilation of a culture liquid necessitates both exhaust of CO2 from the gas bubbles of the culture broth and shift of the H2CO3 ⇌ HCO3- + H+ reaction towards the backward direction.

    Notes: Dried vaccinia virus was found to be very stable in aerosol form in our chamber at a temperature of 75°F and a relative humidity (RH) of 85% when the virus was protected with 1.5% lysine, 1.5% sodium glutamate, 0.5% isoniazid, 0.5% thiourea, and either 2.5% heart infusion broth (HIB) or a combination of 3.75% lactose plus 1.25% raffinose prior to freeze-drying. Utilization of the Environmental chamber technique resulted in (a) selection of two diluents which protected vaccinia virus against the effects of high relative humidity, (b) measurement of the effect of various chemical additives in the diluents, and (c) quantitative measurement of the moisture absorbed by the various dried products.

    Notes: Growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae LBG H 1022 on ethanol under steady-state conditions was studied. As a cultivation device, an aerated Chemap fermentor combined with continuously working gas analyzers for oxygen and carbon dioxide was used. Dry matter, substrate concentration, yield, specific oxygen uptake, specific carbon dioxide release, and respiration quotient, as well as nitrogen, carbon, phosphorus, hydrogen, and protein content of the cells were measured in dependence on the dilution rate. Cell size distribution, as a function of the specific growth rate, was determined with the aid of a Celloscope 202. A fair agreement with the theory of continuous culture for all metabolic curves could be established. An increased turnover rate resulted from the addition of glutamic acid to the synthetic growth medium. The primary effect of this supplement could be a rise in the flow rate of the tricarboxylic acid cycle.

    Notes: We have recently constructed a 10-mm, light path quartz cuvet which will accept a Clark oxygen electrode; it is temperature controlled and is suitable for use in a Unicam (Cambridge, England) SP 800 recording spectrophotometer. Several enquiries have prompted this publication, although such an apparatus was mentioned much earlier by Chance and Williams,1 and has been used extensively.Figure 1a, b, c, and d and their legends provide sufficient detail for the construction of the cuvet and provision of the commercially available electrode, quartz faces, stirring motor and disk magnet. Circuit diagrams for temperature control (range 22-38°C., ± 0.2°C.) and stirrer speed control are shown in Figure 2a and b. The cuvet is shown situated in the spectrophotometer cell housing in Figure 3, and the cuvet with its associated equipment is shown in Figure 4.

    Notes: Conditions for the efficient conversion of commercial RNA to nucleoside 5′-monophosphate by means of a phosphodiesterase in malt sprouts have been determined. A comparison of the enzyme content of the rootlets, stems, and kernels of various plant seedlings, including barley, rye, oat, wheat, rice, and beans shows maximum amounts in the rootlets, and minimum quantities in the ungerminated kernels. Of all the seedlings tested, (mung bean, soy bean, oat, wheat, rice, barley) barley gave the highest conversion of RNA to 5′-nucleotides. Commercial malt sprouts prepared from 6 different malted barleys including 2-rowed and 6-rowed samples all showed about the same amount of phosphodiesterase content. Besides phosphodiesterase, other enzymes capable of hydrolyzing RNA and 5′-nucleotides were found in sprouts. These included 3′-phosphodiesterases, 5′-nucleotidases, and nucleosidases. By carefully pretreating both extracts and the solid sprouts at elevated temperatures for a limited time and by the addition of minimum amounts of Zn+2, the action of these undesirable enzymes was either effectively destroyed or minimized so that the production of 5′-nucleotides was maximized. It was found that suspensions of appropriately washed and treated barley malt rootlets are substantially more effective than aqueous extracts for converting RNA to 5′-nucleotides.

    Notes: Substances which cause emesis in pigeons were extracted from corn (Zea mays) artificially inoculated with Fusarium graminearum and from liquid culture medium inoculated with F. moniliforme, F. roseum, F. poae, F. culmorum, and F. nivale. Emetic preparations were obtained also from infected wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em. Thell), (Hordeum vulgare L. em. Lam), and durum (Triticum durum Desf). Partial purification resulted from chromatography with columns of cellulose and DEAE cellulose and with thin layers of silica gel. Two active materials were obtained from liquid culture of F. moniliforme but only one from infected cereals. Emetic preparations from F. moniliforme and infected cereals contained a polypeptide as a minor component. Ultraviolet and infrared spectrums, elemental analyses, refractive indices, and amino acid composition of the emetic from corn and one of the emeties from liquid culture of F. moniliforme were similar but not identical. Attempts to crystalline these emetics and to characterize them were unsuccessful.

    Notes: A major problem involved in the direct fermentation of nucleotides is their breakdown by phosphohydrolases. Thus, adenine auxotrophs of most microorganisms produce hypoxanthine and/or inosine rather than inosine 5′-monophosphate (IMP) while guanine auxotrophs excrete xanthosine rather than xanthosine 5′-monophosphate (XMP). Examination of a Bacillus subtilis mutant producing hypoxanthine plus inosine revealed at least four phosphohydrolases, three of which could attack nucleotides. Even when the extracellular nucleotide phosphohydrolase was inhibited by Cu+2 and its surface-bound alkaline phosphohydrolase was repressed and inhibited by inorganic phosphate, or removed by mutation, the breakdown products were still the only products of fermentation. Under these conditions, the third enzyme, a surface-bound non-repressible nucleotide phosphohydrolase was still active. It appears, at least in B. subtilis, that excretion is dependent upon breakdown by this enzyme and if hydrolysis does not occur, excretion of purine nucleotides is feedback inhibited by the resultant high intracellular IMP concentration. Corynebacterium glutamicum mutants, on the other hand, can excrete intact nucleotides, and direct fermentations for IMP, XMP, and GMP have been described. An examination of phosphohydrolases in a GMP-producing culture revealed no extracellular or surface enzymes. Disruption of the cells resulted in liberation of cellular phosphohydrolase activity with a substrate specificity remarkably similar to the flavorenhancing properties of the 5′-nucleotides. The order of decreasing susceptibility was GMP, IMP, XMP; AMP was not attacked.

    Notes: A novel and convenient method for the synthesis of guanosine is described. The reaction of AICA-riboside with sodium methylxanthate gave 2-mercaptoinosine in almost quantitative yield. The latter was oxidized with hydrogen peroxide to afford inosine-2-sulfonic acids, which was readily animated to give guanosine in excellent yield. Similarly, the preparation of N2-methylguanosine and N2,N2-dimethylguanosine, minor constituents of transfer RNA, was also accomplished. Furthermore, this procedure was extended to the synthesis of 2′,3′-O-isopropylideneguanosine and the isopropylidene derivatives of various N2-substituted guanosines from 2′,3′-O-isopropylidene-AICA-riboside. Guanosine via 2′,3′-O-isopropylideneguanosine was successfully phosphorylated to give 5′-guanylic acid.

    Notes: Rat liver was subjected to three different, disruption procedures (homogenization, explosive decompression, and Chaikoff press) and mitochondria were subsequently isolated by conventional differential Centrifugation and by zonal Centrifugation. The properties of these mitochondria were investigated by polarographic measurement of oxygen uptake and they were examined by electron microscopy. All three methods of disruption gave mitochondria which showed respiratory control. Nitrogen cavitation gave the most reproducible conditions for cell breakage and zonal Centrifugation gave good separation of subcellular organdies in extracts produced by this method. Some separation of the heterogenous mitochondrial populations was achieved by zonal Centrifugation.

    Notes: The mechanism of oxygen transfer through a pure culture floc of Zoogloea ramigera I-16M has been described quantitatively. Oxygen uptake rates for both blended and nonblended floc particles indicated that, at a certain dissolved oxygen concentration, diffusion of oxygen through the floc matrix was the mechanism controlling the rate of oxygen utilization by the floc. This mechanism was quantitatively described by determining the oxygen diffusivity values for the floc. The diffusional distances of the floc particles along with the oxygen utilization rates of the floc were measured on floc grown under various conditions. Anoxic core equations were then used to calculate the oxygen diffusivity values for each experiment. These diffusivity values were then used to estimate the oxygen concentrations necessary in activated sludge plants.

    Notes: Polyribonucleotide: orthophosphate nucleotidyl transferase, commonly known as polynucleotide phosphorylase catalyzes the reversible polymerization of ribonucleoside diphosphates with the liberation of orthophosphate. The equilibrium constant is approximately 1.0. Although isolated from a variety of sources, the enzyme occurs essentially as two types: one which does not require a primer for reaction initiation and a second which does. A parallel study of an E. coli preparation representing the first type and an M. lysodeikticus preparation representing the second showed differences other than the primer requirement. Rates of polymerization were different as were the Kms. The E. coli preparation catalyzed the synthesis of polyguanylic acid while the M. lysodeikticus preparation did not although synthesis of hetoropolymers containing guanylic acid was catalyzed by the M. lysodeikticus enzyme. Use of repurified commercial substrates made the validity of some primer-requirement experiments suspect. End group analysis of product polymers served only to raise questions concerning the reaction-initiating compounds and the reaction mechanism. A study of hetero-polymer synthesis showed not only that the rate of polymerization was different, from that of homopolymers but that uncompetitive inhibition rather than competitive inhibition occurred when two ribonucleoside diphosphates were present in the reaction mixture. Furthermore, the experiments showed a preferential uptake of one substrate over another and an “enrichment” which was constant. It has also been shown that RNA polymerase, a DNA-RNA directed polymerase, can be used to synthesize polyribonucleotides if the appropriate template is provided.

    Notes: The effect of NaCl on the yield of biological solids and on the ability of continuously cultured heterogeneous microbial populations to remove substrate was assessed by changing the salt concentration in the inflowing synthetic waste. During the period of increasing the salt concentration to 30,000 mg/l the system could not maintain a high substrate removal efficiency. However, after an acclimation period the system regained its former efficiency. Upon diluting the salt out of the system, a significant rise in cell yield was noted as the salt level passed through the range 8,000-10,000 mg/l. It was found that steady operation at a salt level of 8,000 mg/l sustained the cell yield at a high level.

    Notes: A Candida sp. was grown on a fraction of n-alkanes (dodecane 22%, tridecane 48%, tetradecane 28%) as sole carbon source. The growth rate was increased most markedly by using high concentrations of n-alkanes (16.7% v/v). When grown in a 5 liter fermentor, the yeast reached its highest yield (60 g. of cell dry wt/l) with a concomitant high yield of fatty acids (21 g of fatty acids/l), by using a nitrogen-deficient medium. To achieve good growth, it was essential to use an inoculum (1 part into 10) of rapidly growing cells and beneficial to increase the agitation rate gradually once growth had begun. After 108 hr maximum conversions of substrate to product were: 71.5% (w/w) for alkanes into cells and 24.8% (w/w) for alkanes into fatty acids. Of the, total fatty acids at the end of the fat-accumulating phase of growth 54% were shorter in chain length than palmitic acid (C16H32O2). When grown on glucose, as sole carbon source, less than 2% of the total fatty acids were shorter than palmitic acid. When n-alkanes were added to cells growing on glucose, short-chain fatty acids (C10 to C14) were synthesized immediately, indicating a derepressed enzyme system for hydrocarbon assimilation and the absence of diauxie. The production of these acids was at the apparent sacrifice of linoleic acid synthesis. In spite of the high conversion ratios, it is concluded that it would be uneconomical to produce fatty acids, even expensive ones such as lauric acid, by microbial transformation of n-alkanes.

    Notes: A new concept of tissue culture equipment and procedures was developed for the mass-scale growth of several types of animal tissue cells in monolayers on multiple glass surfaces. Continuous, cell lines, primary and diploid cell strains were grown in this equipment. Cells studied include primary bovine kidney, human diploid WI-38, human foreskin, and mouse CCL1 cells. Photomicrographic comparisons of cells grown by these techniques indicate they are morphologically identical to tissue culture cells grown in glass bottles or tubes. The growth of the tissue culture cells in the propagator was monitored by carbohydrate Utilization and acid production. Large-scale production of viruses and biochemicals on cells grown in the multiple-plate tissue culture propagator was accomplished. Virus titers were equal to those obtained from conventional bottle or tube cultures for several strains of influenza, parainfluenza, and respiratory syneytial viruses. High-titred mouse interferon was also produced in this system. In addition to tissue culture cell production, Eaton agent, Mycoplasma pneumoniae was grown on the multiple glass surfaces on a mass scale.

    Notes: Studies of the possible viral etiology of human leukemia have required large quantities of cultured cells derived from human hematopoietic tissues. Since cultures sufficiently large and free from contamination could not readily be produced according to existing methods, a pilot, cell culture plant has been constructed for the production of mammalian cells in mass quantity. 500-ml to 20-liter trophocell units have already proved to be scientifically and economically practical, as they provide good reliability, excellent growth rates, and sustained yield of human cells. 200-liter stainless steel culture units have now been added to the trophocell system. Five complete 200 liter units are now in operation. The design of the original stainless steel unit was based on that of a stainless steel, jacketed soup kettle. There are no openings in the vessel other than those in the lid, which provide convenient access points for sampling, sensor probes, etc. Environmental parameters, e.g., liquid level, temperature, and pH, are monitored and controlled with commercially available apparatus. Many initial problems connected with the new 200 liter units have been resolved, but operational and design problems remain in the areas of stable instrumentation, cell harvesting, salvaging and reuse of unspent media components, establishment of physiologic steady stale, recovery of virus-containing cells with reculture of the remaining unaffected cells, and the recovery and separation of cell components and special products such as immunoglobulins, interferons, and hormones. A definitive cell plant with culture units of 20, 50, 250, and 1250 liters is now being constructed.

    Notes: A 3-liter culture vessel has been developed for the growth of animal cells in suspension at controlled pH and dissolved oxygen partial pressure (pO2). The culture technique allows metabolically produced CO2 to be measured; provision can be made to control the dissolved CO2 partial pressure. In cultures containing a low serum concentration, gas sparging to control pO2 was found to cause cell damage. This could be prevented by increasing the serum concentration to 10%, or by adding 0.02% of the surface-active polymer Pluronic F68. The growth of mouse LS cells in batch culture without pO2 control was found to be limited by the availability of oxygen. Maximum viable cell populations were obtained when dissolved pO2 was controlled at values within the range 40-100 mm Hg.

    Notes: Toxicological investigations were conducted on two new antibiotics, Muconomycin A and Muconomycin B. These non-nitrogenous antibiotics were found to be highly toxic and capable of inducing profound inflammation in the peritoneal cavity of male albino rats. Either antibiotic produced large volumes (10-20 ml) of inflammatory exudate even when injected intraperitoneally in quantities of 1.6 × 10-10 moles. An extensive profile of the electrolytes and proteins found in inflammatory exudates was developed. Simultaneous assays of the blood serum of treated rats provided a basis for comparing the concentrations of constituents of serum with those of the exudate. The results of these assays showed that the exudate contained lower concentrations of sodium and proteins, and greater amounts of potassium, calcium, and phosphorus than the serum. Chloride ion concentrations were variable. Since previous work showed that one of the manifestations of toxicity of these substances was the production of creatinuria, further studies were carried out with ATP/Creatine Phosphotransferase. These studies show that these antibiotics are potent in vitro inhibitors of the enzyme ATP/Creatine Phosphotransferase.

    Notes: Baby-hamster kidney (BHK) cell cultures grown in rolling 2-liter Baxter bottles are used for the production of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) which is subsequently purified. The bottles are held securely in round wire racks (19 per rack) and rotated on a three-tiered roller mill. The use of a strongly buffered growth medium makes changes of the medium unnecessary. A sheet of aluminum foil is used to seal the cultures. It is pressed tightly over all the bottles in a rack by means of a polyurethane foam sheeting bonded to the underside of a rigid snap-on cover. Special equipment eliminates removing the bottles from the racks at any stage in their use. The loaded racks fit directly onto headers of a glassware washer. Spent cell growth media and virus fluids are collected by inverting an entire rack of bottles-Current production is 400 BHK cultures (21 racks) containing 8 × 108 cells each after 6 days growth. About 344 of these cultures (18 racks) are used to grow virus. The purification process yields about 113 mg of pure FMDV per week; the overall recovery based on infectivity is 32%. The projected maximum production of purified virus in the present facilities is approximately 2.5 times greater than this amount.

    Notes: Various multisurface mass-scale tissue culture propagators ranging in capacity up to 200 liters have been developed at Abbott Laboratories. These patented units consist, of an enclosed vessel containing a multiplicity of separated glass plates or disks on which cells may attach and proliferate. Means for mixing and aeration of the medium are provided. Sample ports facilitate the addition of cultures and media, the withdrawal of samples, the washing of cell monolayers, and the harvesting of cells and cell products. The large cell growth surface per occupied volume, the provision for separating tissue cells from media simply and easily, and the minimization of the amount of labor required per cell growth area are some of the many advantages of the multisurface tissue propagator that are described.

    Notes: Two experimental methods were used in measuring oxygen-transfer rates. The results indicate that two possible mechanisms are operating in simultaneous gas-liquid interfacial oxygen absorption and biochemical oxidation. One of the mechanisms, the direct absorption mechanism, has not been much studied in bioengineering. Mathematical equations are derived to describe the simultaneous mechanisms.

    Notes: Mathematical models have been constructed which relate the depth of the culture fluid overlay to the oxygen available to mammalian cells cultured under static conditions. These models suggest that the maintenance of a given rate of oxygen utilization by some culture systems may be critically depended on this fluid depth and on the solubility and rate of diffusion of oxygen in the culture fluid. The importance of these concepts as applied to the isolation and growth of differentiated cells representative of the tissue of origin are noted.

    Notes: Virus quantitation is discussed stressing the discrepancy between the biological titer and the physical virus particle count. When both these techniques are used in conjunction, one can more realistically catalog viral properties. The merits of this technique are exemplified in a study of the growth kinetics and properties of vesicular stomatitis virus in tissue culture.

    Notes: The herpes-type virus found in certain cell cultures derived from Burkitt's lymphoma, other human leukemias, and normal human leukocytes, was concentrated and partially purified by large-volume density gradient centrifugation using zonal centrifuge systems. Using the Jiyoye (P-3) cell line as a model, rate-zonal runs on disrupted cell suspensions in sucrose gradients yielded concentrates with high virus particle counts when 10-15 ml of packed cells were processed per liter of gradient. Isolation and removal of cell nuclei or fluorocarbon treatment of cell sonicates permitted virus recovery from larger volumes of cells per experiment. Zonal centrifugation of concentrated cell-free spent media from highly infected cell cultures yielded more purified virus than obtained from cells. Viral concentrates were prepared with particle counts of 1010-1011/ml and total protein concentrations of 0.2-0.5 mg/ml. Subsequent isopyenie-zonal centrifugation of the various high-count virus fractions from the zonal centrifuge showed a heterogeneity in buoyant virus density ranging from 1.18 to 1.27 in potassium tart rate. The spread in virus density was attributed to the different morphological forms of the virus observed by electron microscopy.
