Responses of Issatchenkia terricola WJL-G4 upon Citric Acid Stress

This study aimed to elucidate the responses of a novel characterized Issatchenkia terricola WJL-G4 against citric acid stress by performing physiological analysis, morphology observation, and structural and membrane fatty acid composition analysis. The results showed that under citric acid stress, the cell vitality of I. terricola WJL-G4 was reduced. The cell morphology changed with the unclear, uncompleted and thinner cell wall, and degraded the cell structure. When the citric acid concentration was 20 g/L, I. terricola WJL-G4 could tolerate citric acid and maintain the cell structure by increasing the intracellular pH, superoxide dismutase activity, and contents of unsaturated fatty acids. As the citric acid concentration was ≥80 g/L, the stress has exceeded the cellular anti-stress ability, causing substantial cell damage. The cell membrane permeability, the content of membrane lipids, malondialdehyde and superoxide anion increased, but the intracellular pH and superoxide dismutase activities decreased, accompanying the increase of citric acid concentrations. The findings of this work provided a theoretical basis for the responsive mechanism of I. terricola WJL-G4 under high concentrations of citric acid, and can serve as a reference for biological acid reduction in fruit processing.

Fortschritte in der Auswertung von Markierungsversuchen an dynamischen Systemen

In einem dynamischen System vollziehen sich kontinuierlich ablaufende Stoffwandlungen, deren Ausgangsstoffe dem System ständig zufließen und deren Folgeprodukte das System kontinuierlich verlassen. Es wird das Verhalten eines solchen Systems mit drei Pools bei Markierungsexperimenten untersucht. Die Ergebnisse dieser mathematischen Untersuchungen werden auf die Erforschung des Stickstoffstoffwechsels laktierender Rinder mit Hilfe des stabilen Isotops ¹⁵N angewandt. In diesem Fall enthält das dynamische System zwei kleine stoffwechselaktive Pools und einen großen, niclit intensiv am Stoffwechsel beteiligten Körpereiweiβ-Pool.     

Iron-related luminescence centers in ZnWO 4 :Fe

A systematic spectroscopic study of single ZnWO 4 :Fe crystals with different iron concentrations has been performed under excitation by ultraviolet light, by synchrotron radiation or under photostimulation by near-infrared light. The luminescence of Fe 3+ -related centres has been studied. It is shown that iron centres of different types efficiently promote the formation of crystal defects at low temperatures. Electrons and holes can be trapped near Fe 2+ or Fe 3+ ions, which is further revealed in phosphorescence, thermostimulated or photostimulated luminescence. At room temperature the main effect of iron impurity is to reduce the light yield of a ZnWO 4 scintillator.     

Silica-Polyethyleneglycols/N 2 O 4 Complexes as Heterogeneous Nitrating and Nitrosating Agents

Silica-chloride was reacted with different quantities of H(OCH 2 CH 2 ) n OH (n = 2-4) to furnish silica-based linear polyethylene glycols and cyclic polyethylene glycolic ethers. The N 2 O 4 complex of silica-tetraethylene glycolic ether ( III ) was selected and used as a stable, cheap, and heterogeneous silica-based reagent for the selective mono- and dinitration of phenols and nitrosation of thiols.     

Studies on 1,10-Phenanthroline Complexes of Some Hydroxyaryltellurium Trihalides

The synthesis and structural features of some newly synthesized 1,10-phenanthroline complexes of p-hydroxyphenyl-and 3-methyl-4-hydroxyphenyltellurium trihalides (chlorides, bromides, and iodides) are reported. The resulting complexes have been subjected to elemental analyses, conductance and cryoscopic measurements, infra-red and proton magnetic resonance spectral studies. Solution studies reveal the weak to 1:1 electrolyte type behavior of these complexes in solution. Spectral studies indicate the linkage of phenanthroline to the tellurium atom through the nitrogen atoms. Central tellurium atom in these complexes is hexa-coordinated in an octahedral way.     

Unprecedented Transformation of Thioglycosides to Their Corresponding 1‐O‐Acetates in the Presence of HClO4‐SiO2 §

An unprecedented conversion of thioalkyl/aryl glycoside to the corresponding 1‐O‐acetates has been described using acetic anhydride and HClO₄‐SiO₂ at rt. Although this transformation does not play an important role in the oligosaccharide synthesis in comparison to its reverse transformation, this gives useful information in selecting the reaction condition for the synthesis of oligosaccharides. The yields were excellent in all cases.
