Pools of normal tissue cultures were examined for enzymes associated with nucleic acid metabolism. Ribonucleases and desoxyribonucleases, 5-nucleotidases, simple nucleotidases, acid and alkaline phosphatases were studied, and certain others occasionally demonstrated. Characteristic behavior of these enzyme systems during the cultivation procedures, during growth, and during degeneration was described. Quantitative data indicate the presence of significant amounts of enzymes in the supernatant fluid. This accounts for the considerable loss in these specialized constituents during fluid changes. The bearing of these findings on the physiology and pathology of cultivated cells was discussed, as a working hypothesis, with special emphasis on poliomyelitis infection. The use of enzyme assays, as functional tests supplementing morphological methods in tissue cultivation, was recommended.

Investigation of enzyme systems in normal tissues is the main subject of this communication. The activity of phosphatases, nucleotidases, and nucleases was explored in "brei" prepared with water, physiological salt mixtures, and synthetic media used for tissue cultivation, to compare the influence of these diluents. The depression of acid phosphatase by medium 597, noted previously in cells growing in vitro, was confirmed in fresh tissue and definitely proved on purified enzyme. Alkaline phosphatase was activated by the same synthetic medium. Differences in kinetics were observed when the effect of medium 597 was examined on 5-nucleotidase concentrate of Russel's viper venom and on pentanucleotidase of fresh kidney. Crystalline RNA-se was inhibited, in a manner similar to the nucleases of kidney extracts. Both phosphomonoesterases were enhanced by the less complex nutrient 697. The deterioration of DNA-se in medium 199 upon storage was striking. Significant observations were gathered on enzymes of concentrated and very diluted (1: 1600) tissue homogenates, on extracts, and on isolated enzymes of various grades of purity.

Mucuna (Stizolobium pruriens) is widely used in agriculture as a green allowance and in crop rotation, due to its ability to fix nitrogen and recover degraded areas; without embargo, there is a slow and uneven germination. This study used some classical methods, together with the use of low-frequency ultrasound to accelerate and homogenize the germination and emergence of the seeds. The experiment was carried out at the Plant Tissue Cultivation Laboratory of the Ilha Solteira Campus, São Paulo, Brazil. The design used was a completely randomized one, with five replications, in a 3x6 factorial scheme, the factors being: three pre-treatments for latency break: mechanical scarification, thermal scarification, and without scarification with six levels of ultrasound exposure: 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8 min, totaling 18 treatments. For eight days the germination and the initial stages of the seedlings were controlled. The method without scarification subjected to 4.5 min of ultrasound can become an excellent alternative, since it presented greater germination vigor, while 3.14 min of exposure to ultrasound were enough to improve the emergence speed, regardless of the method used in the preparation of seeds. In conclusion, only with the use of low-frequency ultrasound, it is possible to improve both the germination speed index and the germination vigor, without the need for additional treatments.
