Effect of added lipids on the texture of minced hake (Merluccius merluccius L.), megrim (Lepidorhombus whiffiagonis W.) and sardine (Sardina pilchardus W.) during frozen storage.

The effect of added cod liver oil and oxidized cod liver oil on the measurement of texture in minced hake (Merluccius merluccius L.), megrim (Lepidorhombus whiffiagonis W.) and sardine (Sardina pilchardus W.) has been measured during frozen storage (-18 degrees C). The results show that added neutral and oxidized lipids, even at high rancidity levels, do not affect shear resistances measured by the Kramer shear-compression cell in non-formaldehyde forming species such as megrim and sardine, over the frozen storage period. However, in a formaldehyde-forming species such as hake, in the presence of neutral and oxidized lipids at the end of the storage period, the values of shear resistances may be lower than in the absence of these lipids, probably owing to formation of less formaldehyde in these cases. Although it is very difficult to estimate the importance of a single compound or group of compounds on texture, these results seem to indicate that formaldehyde is a much more important factor than oxidized lipids in changes of texture in fish.

Nonsteroidal secondary and tertiary amines: inhibitors of insect development and metamorphosis and delta-24-sterol reductase system of tobacco hornworm.

Several new branched and straight chain secondary and tertiary amines were shown to have inhibitive effects upon development and metamorphosis and the delta-24-sterol reductase system in larvae of the tobacco hornworm similar to those previously observed with a number of azasteroids. Certain of the amines which are related structurally to compounds with juvenile hormone activity in insects also blocked development and metamorphosis in three other species of insects. These compounds are lethal or inhibit development in all larval stages and thus differ in action from compounds with juvenile hormone activity where the principal effect is to block the penultimate or ultimate molt.

Inhibitory effect of 1-methyldodecyldimethylamine oxide and N,N-bis(dodecyldimethyl)-1,2-ethanediammonium dibromide on the spores of Bacillus cereus.

1-Methyldodecyldimethylamine oxide (MDDO) and N,N'-bis(dodecyldimethyl)-1,2-ethanediammonium dibromide (BDED) exhibit a significant affinity for the surface of Bacillus cereus spores and adsorb very rapidly to the cells; they have a pronounced inhibitory effect on spore outgrowth. In order to alter the affinity of the spore surface for these inhibitors, the spores were pretreated with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and with an electronegative (Tween 80) and electropositive (histone) compound. In SDS-pretreated spores the inhibitory effect of MDDO and BDED was abolished to a considerable extent. Whereas the development of intact spores was inhibited already after germination, in SDS-pretreated spores the postgermination development continued but was not completed. In Tween 80-pretreated spores the addition of BDED led only to a retardation of outgrowth and division; BDED added only during the division stage interrupted further development completely. Histone-pretreated spores stopped their development instantaneously after the addition of BDED at any phase of the postgermination development. The possible mechanisms of the interaction of the compounds used with spore surface or rather with the state of its structures are discussed.

Activation of human leukocytes by lipid A from E. coli strains adapted to quaternary ammonium salt and amine oxide.

The immunomodulatory activities of monophosphoryl lipid A (MLA) and diphosphoryl lipid A analogues obtained from the sensitive strain of E. coli and from the resistant strains adapted to a quaternary ammonium salt and an amine oxide were compared. All analogues considerably stimulated the activity of human leukocytes although the analogue from the sensitive strain at a higher concentration significantly suppressed phagocytosis. The MLA analogue exhibited a suppressive effect on the microbicidal activity of human leukocytes against E. coli and the peroxidase activity. Adaptation of bacteria to amphiphilic antimicrobial compounds, which is accompanied by chemical changes in their lipid A, only slightly reduced their immunomodulatory activity when compared with the analogue from the sensitive strain. On the other hand, the diphosphoryl analogues were less active than MLA.
