Pseudomonas putida (arvilla) mt-2 carries genes for the catabolism of toluene, m-xylene, and p-xylene on a transmissible plasmid, TOL. These compounds are degraded by oxidation one methyl substituents via corresponding alcohols aldehydes to benzoate m- p-toluates, respectively, which then further metabolised meta pathway, also coded TOL plasmid. The specificities benzyl alcohol dehydrogenase benzaldehyde their three respective substrates independent carbon source used growth, suggesting that...

Mutant strains of Pseudomonas putida ( arvilla ) mt-2 which have lost the ability to grow at expense m - or p -toluate (methylbenzoate) but retain with benzoate arise spontaneously during growth on benzoate; this genetic loss occurs a lesser extent nonaromatic carbon sources in presence mitomycin C. The mutants totally activity enzymes divergent meta pathway possible exception 2-oxopent-4-enoate hydratase and 4-hydroxy-2-oxovalerate aldolase; unlike wild type they utilize by ortho pathway....

Many factors interact to determine whether an introduced organism will become invasive. The widespread planting of many Pinus species at various densities and in habitats different times the Southem Hemisphere (well outside their natural range) provides a unique opportunity identify determinants invasive success for large group related organisms. At least sixteen pine have spread from sites invade or semi-natural vegetation. Species with adventive populations over fairly areas are P....

Previous research on the binding and gelation of calcium/alginate in aqueous solution were mostly conducted (semi-)concentrated regime, it did not provide details process formation egg-box junctions. In present investigation, calcium to alginate, low high molecular weight different guluronate/mannuronate ratios, was investigated dilute solutions using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), Ca2+-selective potentiometry, viscometry techniques. The results reveal three distinct successive...

Environmental context. Antimony first attracted public attention in the mid-1990s amid claims that it was involved Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. A substantial number of papers have now been published on element and its behaviour natural environment. However, many key aspects environmental chemistry antimony remain poorly understood. These include critical areas such as ecotoxicology, global cycling through different compartments, what chemical form takes environments. More focussed research...
