THE nomenclature of the non-flagellar filamentous appendages of bacteria is in a confused state and the need for clarification is increased by a renewal of interest brought about by findings that suggest that some types of these structures may play a part in bacterial conjugation1–4. The appenda...

Asexual reproduction of protozoans takes place through binary fission, schizogamy, and budding, while sexual reproduction occurs through syngamy or sexual fusion, conjugation, and automixis.What are Protozoa? Eukaryotes are one of two types of cells found in all multicellular organisms on Earth, ...
I. The relationship between the degree of hapten conjugation and the immunogenicity of dinitrophenylated polymerized flagellin Of many dinitrophenylated (DNP) protein conjugates tested, only DNP conjugated to polymerized flagellin (DNP-POL) (or the structurally related bacterial flagella) elicited a ...
Their cells are larger than normal bacterial cells. Their cell wall is multi layered. It includes peptidoglycan and there are photosynthetic pigments in outer part of protoplast. Some of them lie freely in the cytoplasm. Mostly all the photosynthetic pigment are present except chlorophyll b. There...
no additional adjuvants need to be administered. A drawback of this vaccine consists in a challenging production process that includes cultures of virulentShigellaas well as the presence of bacterial LPS products in the intermediate steps and final formulation. Another possible caveat is the uniformity...
Bile flows from the canaliculi into the ducts of Hering, to the bile ductules (cholangioles), intralobular (terminal) bile ducts, and conducting area and segmental bile ducts.Conjugated bilirubin is hydrolysed and reduced by bacterial beta-glucuronidase to urobilinogen Urobilinogen part o...
The emergence of KSM-resistant Acidovorax avenae subsp. avenae and Burkholderia glumae, which cause rice bacterial brown stripe and rice bacterial grain and seedling rot, respectively, is a serious threat for the effective control of these diseases. Previously, we identified the aac(2′)-IIa ...
