A strain of Aspergillus niger isolated from soil samples showed great capacity to produce extracellular inulinase. Although the enzyme has been synthesized in presence of monosaccharides, sucrose and sugar cane molasse, the productivity was significantly higher (p<0.05) when the microorganism was inoculated in media formulated with dahlia extract and pure inulin, as carbon sources. With regard to the nitrogen source, the best results were obtained with casein and other sources of proteic nitrogen, comparatively to the mineral nitrogen. However, statistic significance (p<0.01) only was found between the productivity obtained in the medium prepared with casein and ammonium sulphate. The optimum pH of the purified enzyme for inulin hydrolysis was found between 4.0 and 4.5 and the optimun temperature at 60oC. When treated by 30 minutes in this temperature no loss of activity was observed. The enzyme showed capacity to hydrolyse sucrose, raffinose and inulin from which it liberated only fructose units showing, therefore, an exo-action mechanism. Acting on inulins from several sources, the enzyme showed larger hydrolysis speed on the polissaccharide from chicory (Cichorium intibus), comparatively, to the inulins from dahlia (Dahlia pinnata) and Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus) roots.

A atividade bacteriostatica de 2,4,2-trihidroxichalcona, 2,4,3-trihidroxichalcona e 2,4,4-trihidroxichalcona, preparadas por condensacao de 2,4-dihidroxiacetofenona e benzaldeido convenientemente substituido, contra Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 foi avaliada pela tecnica de difusao em placas. Importantes halos de inibicao foram observados para os tres compostos. Com o proposito de esclarecer a relacao estrutura-atividade biologica, as concentracoes inibitorias minimas (CIM) frente a S. aureus foram determinadas, empregando o metodo da diluicao em caldo. Os resultados obtidos foram semelhantes a 2,4-dihidroxichalcona, observando-se a seguinte ordem: CIM 2,4,3-(OH)3 > CIM 2,4-(OH)2 > CIM 2,4,4-(OH)3 > CIM 2,4,2-(OH). A sequencia obtida mostra que a introducao de um grupo doador de eletrons (OH) no anel aromatico B provoca um aumento da bioatividade, sendo a intensidade dependente da posicao do substituinte -OH.

We have previously observed that interferon (recIFNa2b) blocks the process of morphogenesis of Mayaro virus in TC7 cells (monkey kidney). In this work we show that IFNa inhibits preferentially virus glycoproteins and their precursors, and this effect is probably correlated to the alterations in the morphogenesis process previously observed.

The enzymatic activity of soil samples stored at temperatures of 5 to -12oC and at room temperature for 0-32 weeks was determined. While alkaline phosphatase and dehydrogenase activity was decreased compared to control in samples stored at low temperatures, acid phosphatase activity showed no significant change.

In an attempt to screen out new potent antibiotic producers from soil, Streptomyces hygroscopicus D1.5 was isolated and was found antagonistic to both bacteria and fungi. It could utilise arginine as nitrogen source and glycerol as carbon source at 0.75 g/l and 11.5 g/l level, respectively for maximum antibiotic yield.

Prostaglandin A1 (PGA1) inhibits Mayaro virus replication in Aedes albopictus cells at nontoxic doses to uninfected cells. At 10 µg/ml, PGA1 decreases virus production by 90%. The presence of PGA1 during virus adsorption, with no treatment after infection, reduces virus yield by 41%. Antiviral activity is observed even when treatment starts at one or two hours post-infection. However, in cells pre-treated with PGA1 during 24 hours, virus replication is not impaired. Thus, events ocurring during initial stages of infection and after virus adsorption and penetration must be the target of PGA1 action. SDS-PAGE analysis of 35S-methionine labelled proteins shows that PGA1 inhibits the synthesis of viral proteins and induces the synthesis of polypeptides with molecular weight of 70 kDa, 57 kDa and 23 kDa. In cells pre-treated with actinomycin D the induction of those proteins is suppressed. In addition, actinomycin D treatment prevents PGA1antiviral activity, indicating that PGA1-induced stress proteins are probably involved in this mechanism.

Among one thousand eight hundred and thirty-four Gram-negative bacilli, isolated at Universidade Federal do Ceara hospital complex - Brazil, from January 1995 to February 1996, 456 (24.8%) were Nonfermentative Gram-Negative Bacilli (NFGNB). This study reports their identification to the species level and their frequency as well. Thirteen genera and thirty species were identified and Pseudomonas aeruginosa was the most frequent species (69.95%), followed by Acinetobacter baumannii (5.48%) and by Acinetobacter lwoffii (3.95%). Among the identified P.aeruginosa strains, 94.1% produced pigment but 7.9% of them produced pigment only after being cultivated several times. The frequency of the most species was similar to that reported in the literature.

O aparecimento de halo de inibicao contra o Vibrio cholerae a partir das fezes de ratos Wistar e Fischer nas idades de 10 a 42 dias foi observado usando um teste ex vivo em placa. A frequencia de ratos Wistar apresentando halo aumentou de 0% (10 dias) ate um maximo de 80,0% (29 dias) antes de decair para 53,3% (42 dias). Um perfil similar foi obtido com os ratos Fischer mas com valores inferiores (frequencia maxima de 50,0% no dia 36). Num experimento separado quando ratos Wistar foram alimentados com uma racao deficiente em proteina a frequencia de halo diminuiu drasticamente. Tres morfologias de colonias aparentemente distintas foram isoladas da microbiota fecal dominante: uma bacteria anaerobia facultativa (ANF) e duas anaerobias estritas (ANS). O teste inibitorio ex vivo mostrou halo ao redor das fezes de camundongos isentos de germes monoassociados com a bacteria ANF ou uma das bacterias ANS mas nao para os animais isentos de germes. Apos desafio oral de todos os grupos com o V. cholerae, barreiras permissiva e drastica foram observadas em camundongos associados com as bacterias ANF e ANS, respectivamente. As bacterias ANF e uma ANS usadas em monoassociacao nos desafios in vivo foram identificadas como Escherichia coli e Streptococcus intermedius, respectivamente. O potente antagonismo demostrado pela microbiota intestinal de ratos contra V. cholerae parece devido, em parte, a compostos difusiveis e este fenomeno depende aparentemente da idade, de especie e da nutricao do animal. Esses dados preliminares sugerem tambem que este antagonismo seja devido a mais de um componente bacteriano num instante dado.
