Growth of Salmonella on chilled meat.

Growth rates of a mixture of Salmonella serotypes inoculated on beef from a commercial abattoir were measured at chill temperatures. The minimum recorded mean generation times were 8.1 h at 10 degrees C; 5.2 h at 12.5 degrees C and 2.9 h at 15 degrees C. Growth did not occur at 7-8 degrees C. From these data the maximum extent of growth of Salmonella during storage of meat for different times at chill temperatures was calculated. Criteria for deciding safe handling temperatures for meat are discussed. Maintaining an internal temperature below 10 degrees C during the boning operation would be sufficient to safeguard public health requirements.

Cohort, age, and period effects upon the employment of white females: evidence for 1957-1968.

The net effects of birth cohort, age, and period upon the employment of white women, 1957-1968, are estimated by a regression analysis of data from the Social Security Administration's continuous work history file. By conceptualizing period-specific effects as those associated with the business cycle, we avoid multicollinearity and succeed in performing an analysis faithful to the cohort concerns usual in fertility analysis and to the macro-economic concerns usual in employment studies. The age pattern of employment and the pattern of intercohort employment change are examined in some detail. The long-run (cohort) trend of increasing white female employment is compared with the estimated (short-run) effects attributable to the business cycle, and it is found that, while both are significant, the former exerted a stronger effect in the 1957-1968 period.

Changes in enzyme and metabolite content of effluent perfusate during preservation of dog kidneys by Collins' method.

Enzyme and metabolite content of effuent perfusate has been investigated. One kidney was removed from dogs and preserved by Collin's method. The animals were then bled to a mean arterial blood pressure of 5.26 KPa (40 mm Hg) and maintained at this pressure for 60 min after which the other kidney was removed and preserved in a similar way. 10-ml samples of effluent perfusate were taken immediately, and after 30 min, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 24, 48 and 72 h. Acid phosphatase, arylsulphatase "A", ss-glucuronidase, LDH, leucin-aminopeptidase, lactic acid and pyruvic acid were determined by fluorometric methods. It was found that the activity of the enzymes rose parallel with the duration of preservation, the rise was especially great at 48 and 72 h. Activity of LDH and arylsulphatase "A" was significantly higher even at the beginning of preservation in the group of kidneys exposed in vivo to hypotension. This significant difference was present at 24, 48 und 72 h in the activity of all enzymes.
