Der Einfluss des Urin-pH auf die Aktivität von Urinenzymen

Summary The relationship between the pH of urine and the measured activity of ULDH, UAP and UAA was investigated in vivo and in vitro. The activity of ULDH and UAP is only half as much, or less, in acid urine (pH 4.8–5.1) as it is in alkaline urine (pH 7.0–8.1). The UAA activity, however, does not change in the pH range measured. The isoenzymes ULDH 2–4, present in alkaline urine of normal adults, does not appear in acid urine.     

Bacteriocinogeny inProteus rettgeri

Zusammenfassung In 2 von 7 Stämmen vonProteus rettgeri gelang die Induktion von Bakteriozinen unter der Einwirkung von Mitomycin C. Die gewonnenen Bakteriozine waren chloroformbeständig, trypsinresistent und hitzelabil.

Experimentelle Reversion von Tumorzellen in vivo

Summary European eels with fast growing epidermal papillomas (cauliflower disease) were treated with quinine-sulphate. At concentrations of 15 to 60 mg/l and after 8 weeks of treatment, there occurred newly formed mucous cells and club cells in the tumor tissue. Tight contact between all cells was reestablished. The nucleus-plasma-relation had evidently decreased. Electron microscopical studies showed a restauration of degenerated cell organelles, especially of the outer membrane. Growth rate of the tumors was reduced, and at a concentration of 60 mg/l the tumor tissue ceased growing from the beginning of treatment.
