A natural case of Schistosoma mansoni in the chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes versus).

A spontaneous infection with Schistosoma mansoni was found in a chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes versus) recently imported from Sierra Leone, Africa. Clinical signs consisted of anemia, liver enlargement, bronchial rales, and emaciation. The primary gross pathologic lesions included a fibrotic firm nodular liver and pulmonary edema and consolidation. Histopathologic examination revealed changes similar to the experimental syndrome of Manson's schistosomiasis in the chimpanzee. The diagnosis was confirmed by the presence of the eggs and larvae of Schistosoma mansoni.

Fungi Associated with Softening of Bisulfite-Brined Cherries.

Softening of sound, calcium bisulfite-brined cherries was induced fairly quickly by brining them with cherries rotted by Aspergillus niger, Cytospora leucostoma, and Penicillium expansum, but not with cherries rotted by a variety of other microorganisms, including Alternaria sp., Aspergillus oryzae, Aureobasidium pullulans, Botrytis cinerea, Cladosporium sp., Mucor racemosus, Rhizopus stolonifer, and Sclerotinia fructicola. Rapid softening was correlated with the presence of a bisulfite-stable polygalacturonase, as demonstrated by a cup-plate test. A survey of naturally rotted cherries suggests the involvement of a bark-canker fungus, C. leucostoma, in softening of commercially brined cherries in the Pacific Northwest.
