An indirect immunofluorescent antibody technique for detection and enumeration of Vibrio vulnificus serovar E (biotype 2): development and applications.

The applications of an indirect fluorescent antibody technique (IFAT), developed to detect and enumerate the pathogenic bacterium Vibrio vulnificus serovar E from water and clinical samples, are described. This technique proved accurate for detecting V. vulnificus, even under starvation conditions and in the non-culturable state, and could differentiate this species from other bacteria which share the same habitats. The IFAT was successfully used to diagnose vibriosis from naturally- and artificially-infected eels. The overall data suggest that applying this technique properly in environmental and epidemiological/epizootiological studies could significantly increase our knowledge of this bacterium.

Protein kinases exert major regulatory effects in eukaryotic signaling events. As these proteins play central regulatory and sensory functions they are interesting targets for antiparasitic drug development and serve as vaccine candidates. A cDNA with an open reading frame of 1122 bp coding for the regulatory subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (Ov-pka-r) of the pathogenic human nematode Onchocerca volvulus has been isolated. The predicted protein displays 84% homology to the corresponding protein of Caenorhabditis elegans and 71% to the human homologue. The O. volvulus protein has unique features, it includes six cysteine residues, as compared to four residues in mammals. Ov-PKA-r was recombinantly expressed as His-tagged protein and under reducing conditions showed a molecular mass of 52 kDa. In sera from O. volvulus patients IgG antibodies were found that strongly reacted with the recombinant Ov-PKA-r. Using rabbit antisera raised against the recombinant protein for immunohistology allowed the localization of the native Ov-PKA-r within the nervous system and sensory organs of adult O. volvulus worms and of microfilariae. The predominant expression in the nervous system and sensory organs as well as the unique structural features identify this signaling molecule of O. volvulus as a new and interesting target for drug or vaccine development.

Virulence plasmid (pYV)-associated susceptibility of Yersinia enterocolitica to chlorine and heavy metals.

This study was aimed at elucidating the role of virulence plasmid (pYV) in the susceptibility of Yersinia enterocolitica to bactericidal agents such as chlorine and heavy metals. Plasmid-bearing (pYV+) Y. enterocolitica was less susceptible to the antimicrobial action of chlorine and heavy metals compared with the isogenic plasmidless (pYV-) derivative. This difference was, however, observed only with bacteria cultured at 25 degrees C. pYV-associated susceptibility apart, cells cultured at 37 degrees C were also found to be less susceptible to the antimicrobial action of these agents. The results indicate that the susceptibility of Y. enterocolitica to these agents was influenced both by the presence of the virulence plasmid and the temperature at which the cells were cultured.

Sphingomonas species were commonly isolated from biofilms in drinking water distribution systems in Finland (three water meters) and Sweden (five water taps in different buildings). The Sphingomonas isolates (n = 38) were characterized by chemotaxonomic, physiological and phylogenetic methods. Fifteen isolates were designated to species Sphingomonas aromaticivorans, seven isolates to S. subterranea, two isolates to S. xenophaga and one isolate to S. stygia. Thirteen isolates represented one or more new species of Sphingomonas. Thirty-three isolates out of 38 grew at 5 degrees C on trypticase soy broth agar (TSBA) and may therefore proliferate in the Nordic drinking water pipeline where the temperature typically ranges from 2 to 12 degrees C. Thirty-three isolates out of 38 grew at 37 degrees C on TSBA and 15 isolates also grew on blood agar at 37 degrees C. Considering the potentially pathogenic features of sphingomonas, their presence in drinking water distribution systems may not be desirable.

Some strains of Vibrio harveyi are known to be pathogenic for fish and many invertebrates including crustaceans. Despite their importance, their modes of virulence have yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we present a previously unreported bacteriophage extracted from a toxin-producing strain of V. harveyi isolated from moribund prawn larvae in tropical Australia. Classification into the family Myoviridae was based upon morphological characteristics (an icosahedral head, a neck/collar region and a sheathed rigid tail) and nucleic acid characteristics (double-stranded linear DNA). We have termed the bacteriophage VHML (Vibrio Harveyi Myovirus Like). VHML is a temperate bacteriophage that has a narrow host range and shows an apparent preference for V. harveyi above other vibrios (63 Vibrio isolates tested) and other genera (10 other genera were tested). The conventional methods for phage concentration and extraction of nucleic acids from phage particles were not efficient and the alternative methods that were used are discussed.

Loss of hair changes the appearance of a person, and the identity of the person in social context to a certain extent.
Hair growth is a complex biological process, which has not yet been completely understood. A multitude of therapeutic measures, including drugs, surgery, and suppelements have been made available, and used. However, due to the diversity of the problems underlying hair loss, there is no single solution for all hair loss cases. Most of chemical drugs and hair transplantation surgeries are not free from varying degrees of undesirable side effects on health.
Hair Million is an alternative solution to hair loss problems. Albeit only anecdotally, it has demonstrated efficacy in
the improvement for age-related hair thinning and hair loss for a significant fraction of people who take it
as recommended. We do not know the mechanisms of action as to how Hair Million works to help stop hair loss, and promote hair growth. We only know by
anecdotal observations. There has been no clinical trials nor placebo controlled statistical analysis.
DHEA is a natural hormone, and it is produced in our body by the adrenal glands.
DHEA has been suggested to provide numerous potential benefits. DHEA (or dehydroepiandrosterone) is converted into androgens (male hormones)
or estrogens (female hormones) in the cells.
