SummaryThe activating principle (CPA) of the factor VII activation seen in plasmas of women taking oral contraceptives after overnight incubation of the plasmas at 0° C was investigated. The reaction was dependent on low temperature, and factor XII was indispensable. Concomitant with the activation of factor VII a 10–30 fold increase in TAME esterolytic activity was observed together with a near 100 per cent drop in plasma kininogen concentration. The results indicated that the activation of factor VII is linked to activation of the kallikrein system, and that the activator may be plasma kallikrein.

Multiple Challenges

Salmonellosis is known to be one of important issues that affect poultry industry as well as it can affect human health. Recently, multiple challenges are facing the use of natural antibacterial compounds, such as herbal extracts to overcome the massive increase in bacterial antibiotic resistance. Different Salmonella serotypes were recovered throughout examination of diarrheic poultry. These strains showed multidrug resistance by disc diffusion methods also, the resistance genes qnrS and aac (6′)-Ib-cr were detected in S. Enteritidis and S.Typhimurium which isolated from broiler's organs and muscles. The methanolic extracts of five plants (Alhagi maurorum, Conyza dioscoridis, Coriander sativum, Caracuma longa and Cuminum cyminum) were tested for their antibacterial activity against different isolated Salmonella serotypes using minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC). Conyza dioscoridis was the most effective extract retarding microbial growth of Salmonella Enteritidis, while other plant extracts showed variable antimicrobial activity. These results are promising in the way of replacing the antibiotic therapy with natural substances to overcome the multidrug resistance.

Aim: Antidrug antibody (ADA) assessment may be challenged in studies that involve the administration of high doses of biotherapeutics and/or with long half-lives. In such cases, ADA assays with optimized drug tolerance are desired. Material & Methods: We evaluated the use of MgCl2 to develop high ionic strength dissociation assays in two investigational examples (bridging enzyme-linked immunosorbent ADA assays) to attain high drug tolerance while maintaining best possible structural integrity of ADAs. Results: Both ADA-bridging assays treated with MgCl2 showed improved drug tolerance and higher signal-to-blank values compared with overnight incubation or acid treatment. Conclusion: The use of MgCl2 treatment in ADA-bridging assays provides a sensitive, drug tolerant and easy-to-use alternative in cases where acid dissociation is not possible or unwanted.

Disaccharides 1-3 corresponding to the antigenic determinants of Salmonella serotypes A, B, and D1 were synthesized in a form suited for use in biosensors. The disaccharide determinants each contain a unique 3,6-dideoxyhexose, namely abequose (3,6-dideoxy-D-xylo-hexose), paratose (3,6-dideoxy-D-ribohexose), and tyvelose (3,6-dideoxy-D-arabino-hexose), are α-linked to the 3-position of D-mannopyranose. The disaccharides were further derivatized with a linear aglycon that has a terminal amino group, and can be readily coupled to pertinent chains carrying a terminal thiol for the construction of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). Efficient routes that employed a single 3,6-dideoxygenation step were developed for the synthesis of paratoside 15 and tyveloside 22.Key words: Salmonella O-antigens, lipopolysaccharide, abequose, paratose, tyvelose, 3,6-dideoxyhexose, deoxygenation, glycoside tethers, immobilization via pentenyl glycosides.

SUMMARYIn a residential estate of 4000 persons, containing neither industry nor retail butchers shops, salmonellas were regularly found in the sewerage system. They were frequently found in the sewage of a portion of the estate housing 1000 persons. The range of serotypes found was wide and some types suggested an exotic origin. No overt salmonella infection in the estate was reported during the period of survey, although local general practitioners had been previously alerted. Overt infection due to serotypes found in the survey were, however, reported in other areas of Glamorgan. Multiple sampling points in the sewerage system and a serological technique for examining samples contaminated with multiple salmonella serotypes were essential for the technical success of the survey.We should like to thank Prof. Scott Thomson for his advice in the preparation of this paper; Dr E. S. Anderson of the Central Enteric Reference Laboratory and Bureau, Colindale, for phage-typing the strains of S. typhimurium and S. paratyphi B; and Dr G. J. G. King of the Public Health Laboratory, Bournemouth, for identifying the serotypes isolated. We should also like to thank Mr T. R. Liddington and Mr J. H. Price for their technical assistance.

The Relationship

Tomato-associated Salmonella outbreaks have recently become a significant food safety concern. Temperature abuse of cut tomatoes may have played a role in some of these outbreaks. The purpose of this study was to develop a mathematical model to describe the growth of Salmonella on cut tomatoes at various temperatures. Four Salmonella serotypes (Typhimurium, Newport, Javiana, and Braenderup) obtained from previous tomato-linked cases of salmonellosis were used in this study. These four serotypes were cultured separately, combined into a cocktail, and inoculated onto whole red round tomatoes and allowed to dry overnight. The tomatoes were then cut into pieces and incubated at a predetermined range of temperatures (10, 12.5, 15, 17.5, 20, 22.5, 25, 27.5, 30, and 35°C). Salmonella concentration was measured at specified time intervals to determine the growth curve for Salmonella on cut tomatoes at each temperature. The growth rates were calculated using DMFit and used to build a mathematical model to illustrate the relationship between the growth rates of Salmonella on tomatoes and incubation temperatures from 10 to 35°C. The resulting model compared favorably with a Salmonella growth model for raw poultry developed by our laboratory. The Pathogen Modeling Program underpredicted growth at low temperatures and overpredicted growth at high temperatures. ComBase predicted consistently slower growth rates than were observed in tomatoes but showed parallel increases in growth rate with increasing temperature.

SummaryDuring the 5-year (1981–5) surveillance period, 2322 salmonella isolations were recorded from animals and other non-human sources in Peninsular Malaysia. This was an increase of 356% over the preceding 5-year period. The 83 serotypes isolated were recovered from 41 sources. Of these 34 were new serotypes bringing the total number of serotypes isolated from non-human sources to date up 97. Food animals and edible animal products accounted for 92·2% of the total isolations, with cattle and beef accounting for 70% of the total. Salmonella dublin was the most frequently isolated serotype, whereas S. typhimurium had the widest zoological distribution. More than 80% of the non-human salmonella serotypes have also been reported in man in this country.
