The ability of chymotrypsin-treated (chymo+) and untreated (chymo−) polyoma virus to transform cultured hamster embryo fibroblasts was examined. The data show that exposure to this protease reduces the ability of the virus to transform non-permissive cells to essentially the same extent as it reduces its ability to replicate in permissive cells. Twenty-five lines of transformed cells were established from colonies growing in soft agar, and after 20 in vitro passages, cells of all lines were characterized with respect to their ability to form colonies in soft agar and their tumorigenicity in hamsters. While the studies showed that there are striking differences among the lines with respect to colony-forming ability, and real, though less striking differences in tumorigenicity, they failed to reveal any obvious differences between the groups of cell lines transformed by chymo− and chymo+ polyoma virus. Of 13 lines examined, all were found to express both middle and small polyoma T antigens, none express significant levels of large T antigen, and 11 express some form of what is probably a truncated large T antigen, the most common species having a molecular weight of 67 000.

The study was intended for molecular detection of S. aureus isolated from raw cow’s milk. A total of 20 milk samples were collected from different upazila markets of Jamalpur, Tangail, Kishoreganj and Netrokona districts of Bangladesh. Milk samples were cultured onto various culture media for the isolation of bacteria. The isolated bacteria were identified by studying cultural properties on different selective media, biochemical tests, and finally by PCR. Out of 20 samples, 15 (75%) milk samples were found to be positive for S. aureus. S. aureus specific 16S rRNA gene was amplified from all isolates and identified as S. aureus. Antimicrobial sensitivity test was carried out to ascertain the susceptibility of the organism to various antibiotics. Its results showed that the S. aureus isolates were resistant to amoxicillin (100%), erythromycin (73.33%) and tetracycline (73.33%) but sensitive to azithromycin (93.33%), ciprofloxacin (93.33%), gentamicin (100%), norfloxacin (86.67%) and streptomycin (86.67%).
