EFFECT OF CHLORINATED WASH WATER ON QUALITY OF HEAT SHOCKED MUSSEL MEAT

Chlorine-assisted chilled tumble washing of green mussel meats was done using 5 and 10ppm chlorine solutions maintained at 5 and 10C for 3 min. No significant difference (P < 0.05) was established in terms of meat yield, pH, Aw or sensory qualities for tumble washed samples. The mussel meats were given sensory acceptance ratings of up to "like slightly". A 2% weight gain of mussel meats was established after washing. Heat shocking in tandem with tumble washing affected 1–3 unit log reduction in TPC and coliform counts and about a 4 log reduction in Vibrio spp. counts of mussel meats. The 2 protocols were presented as value-adding steps to improve mussel meat quality. Philippine micro- and small-scale shellfish processors and vendors were identified as potential users of the technology presented in the study.

Formula creatinine clearance as a substitute for 24-hour creatine clearance in children with kidney transplantation

A 10-year-old German shepherd dog presented with a periodontal 10 mm interproximal defect between the left mandibular fourth premolar and first molar teeth. Bone graft removed from the caudoventral portion of the ipsilateral hemimandible was placed in the defect as a component of the periodontal treatment plan. The use of bone graft likely contributed to periodontal pocket reduction.     

Education for the nurse of tomorrow: a community-focused curriculum

A competitive enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay (ELISA) technique has been developed to facilitate quantitative analysis of the earliest step in the initiation of the extrinsic pathway of coagulation, i.e., complex formation of factor VII/VIIa with tissue factor. The ELISA measures the binding of biotinylated human plasma factor VII to relipidated recombinant human tissue factor. Quantitation of the relative affinity (expressed as IC50) of any factor VII molecular population or structural analogue for tissue factor can be determined by competitive binding. Subnanomolar concentrations of both wild-type recombinant human factor VII (rFVII) and rFVII(R152Q), a mutation at the FVII activation site, competed effectively with biotinylated plasma-derived factor VII in binding to tissue factor. In contrast, the affinity of rFVII(R79Q), a mutation in the first epidermal growth factor-like domain, was 12-fold lower. Following activation of rFVII(R79Q), its affinity for tissue factor and enzymatic activity increased 4-fold and 6-fold, respectively. For wild-type rFVII, enzymatic activity rose significantly following activation. However, its affinity for tissue factor was unchanged. We conclude that both the activation state of factor VII and the mutation of amino-acid residues within the first epidermal growth factor-like domain may alter the affinity of factor VII for tissue factor.     

Potentiation by specific short-chain fatty acids of differentiation and apoptosis in human colonic carcinoma cell lines

The architecture of normal colonic mucosa suggest that terminally differentiated epithelial cells near the top of the crypt are extruded into the colonic lumen. Morphological studies have identified apoptotic cells among the differentiated phenotypes near the crypt-lumen interface, suggesting a link between pathways of differentiation, apoptosis, and cellular shedding. We studied these processes in HT29 and SW620 cells and found that compared to adherent cells, those cells which were shed during standard, uninduced culture conditions exhibited nonrandom DNA fragmentation characteristic of apoptosis. Moreover, these apoptotic cells, which accumulate in the media, exhibited a more differentiated phenotype. Because short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are natural effectors of colonic cell differentiation in vivo, we investigated the specificity of three 4-carbon atom SCFAs on potentiating differentiation and apoptosis, and thus accumulation of shed cells in the conditioned media, in these colonic carcinoma cell lines. Whereas the unbranched SCFA butyrate induced a more differentiated phenotype and enhanced apoptosis, two derivatives of butyrate, branched isobutyric acid and a nonmetabolizable fluorine-substituted analogue, heptafluorobutyric acid, were ineffective in inducing either differentiation or apoptosis. Thus, potentiated differentiation and apoptosis in colonic carcinoma cells were linked to SCFA structure and, most likely, utilization.     

Development of a vibratory white finger prevention program for shipyard workers: an exploratory study

OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of thevetoside (TS), a cardiac glycoside, and an inhibitor of Na+, K(+)-ATPase, on tumor cells cultured in vitro. METHODS: The cytotoxic effects of TS on tumor cells were determined by trypan blue dye exclusion, neutral red vital staining and clonogenic assay. The time-effect relationship and growth inhibition of tumor cells by TS were assayed with trypan blue exclusion method. RESULTS: TS at low doses (0.005-0.1 mg.L-1), with dose dependence, was able to kill SMMC-7721, SGC-7901 and HeLa cells. IC50 values for SMMC-7721, SGC-7901 and HeLa cells were 0.007, 0.011 and 0.018 mg.L-1 by trypan blue dye exclusion test and 0.016, 0.055 and 0.078 mg.L-1 by neutral red vital staining test. TS inhibited the clonal forming rate of SMMC-7721 and SGC-7901 significantly with IC50 values of 0.021 and 0.036 mg.L-1, respectively. Only when the cells were continuously treated with TS for more than 8 hours, the drug-induced cell lethality could be displayed and strengthened quickly. The growth of tumor cells was notably inhibited after they were exposed to 0.1 microgram/ml of TS for 12 hours. All the experimental results of antitumor activity in vitro showed that SMMC-7721 was most sensitive to TS among the three kinds of tumor cells. CONCLUSIONS: TS has cytotoxic action on tumor cells cultured in vitro and this lethal effect must have an action process, in which tumor cells are not dead but suffer from deadly injury and lost the capability of unlimited proliferation.
