Asynchronous climate changes in the North Atlantic and Japan during the last termination     

Nakagawa T  Kitagawa H  Yasuda Y  Tarasov PE  Nishida K  Gotanda K  Sawai Y;Yangtze River Civilization Program Members 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》2003,299(5607):688-691

Pollen records from the annually laminated sediment sequence in Lake Suigetsu, Japan, suggest a sequence of climate changes during the Last Termination that resembles that of the North Atlantic region but with noticeable differences in timing. An interstadial interval commenced a few centuries earlier [approximately 15,000 years before the present (yr B.P.)] than the North Atlantic GI-1 (B?lling) event. Conversely, the onset of a Younger Dryas (YD)-like cold reversal (12,300 to 11,250 yr B.P.) postdated the North Atlantic GS-1 (YD) event by a few centuries. Climate in the Far East during the Last Termination reflected solar insolation changes as much as Atlantic influences.  相似文献   

Quercetin-4'-glucoside is more potent than quercetin-3-glucoside in protection of rat intestinal mucosa homogenates against iron ion-induced lipid peroxidation     

Murota K  Mitsukuni Y  Ichikawa M  Tsushida T  Miyamoto S  Terao J 《Journal of agricultural and food chemistry》2004,52(7):1907-1912

Quercetin is a typical antioxidative flavonoid found in vegetables, which is more commonly present as its glucosides, quercetin-3-glucoside (Q3G) and quercetin-4'-glucoside (Q4'G). The main aim of this study was to estimate the antioxidant activity of Q3G and Q4'G on iron ion-driven lipid peroxidation of the gastrointestinal mucosa. Q4'G markedly suppressed the lipid peroxidation when rat gastrointestinal mucosa homogenates were incubated with Fe(NO3)3 and ascorbic acid. Its effectiveness was greater as compared to that of Q3G and comparable to that of quercetin aglycone. Furthermore, Q4'G yielded higher amounts of quercetin aglycone than Q3G on incubation with the homogenates. However, Q4'G showed a lower chelating activity in comparison to Q3G. These results indicate that Q4'G, even though it has a low chelating activity, because of its efficient conversion to antioxidative aglycone on exposure to the mucosa, can act as a powerful antioxidant on iron ion driven lipid peroxidation in the intestinal mucosa. Thus, vegetables rich in Q4'G, such as onion, are likely to serve as favorable antioxidant sources for suppressing iron-induced oxidative stress in the intestinal tract.  相似文献   

Sequential isolation of rotavirus from individual calves   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Y Goto  H Kurogi  Y Inaba  M Matumoto 《Veterinary microbiology》1986,11(1-2):177-184

An outbreak of neonatal calf diarrhea was studied on a breeding farm of Japanese indigenous beef cattle. During the breeding season of 1982, 43 calves were born over the period 27 February-28 April. All but one of the calves suffered from neonatal diarrhea and 5 died. Bovine rotavirus was isolated in cell cultures from fecal specimens of 39 (90.7%) of the 43 calves during the outbreak, strongly suggesting that this was the causative agent; the virus was readily isolated from 81 (83.5%) of 97 specimens of diarrhea. Rotavirus was subsequently isolated from the feces of 7 of the calves in early May, more than one month after the initial virus isolation in early March. Two of these calves were again rotavirus-positive in early June, 41 days after the second virus isolation. Diarrhea had ceased in all 7 calves in March. Some antigenic differences were shown by the neutralization test between the early and later isolates from one of these calves, suggesting either re-infection with a serologically different virus, or persistent infection with the original virus following antigenic modulation.  相似文献   

Improvement of the emulsifying properties of porcine sarcoplasmic proteins with a low-molecular weight surfactant by the two-step emulsification method     

Yuji MIYAGUCHI  Yuki HAYASHI  Kiyomi NAGAYAMA 《Animal Science Journal》2003,74(2):145-151

The emulsifying properties of porcine sarcoplasmic protein (SP) with or without low-molecular weight surfactants were examined. The emulsifying activity (EA) of SP was weaker than that of sodium caseinate (CA), blood plasma (BP) and whey protein isolates at a protein concentration of 0.5–3%. Sodium chloride decreased the EA of SP. The EA of SP was about one quarter that of CA in the presence of 3% sodium chloride. As homogenization time increased, the EAs of SP and BP decreased. The EA of SP was not influenced by sucrose stearate ester (SE) with a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) value of 16 (SE-16) but was decreased by those with HLB values of 5 and 1. Low-molecular weight surfactants such as SE-16, Tween 80 and sodium cholate improved the EA of SP with the two-step emulsification method: corn oil was previously emulsified with the surfactant before addition of SP and homogenization. In the case of the addition of SE-16 as primary emulsifier, the EA was about twice as high as that of SP alone. The same effect was shown in the emulsions formed by CA and soy protein isolate. These results indicate that the emulsifying properties of meat protein would be improved by the addition of a low-molecular weight surfactant in a two-step emulsification.  相似文献   

Inhibitors of bovine parvovirus,coronavirus and rotavirus in precolostral and fetal bovine sera     

S. Tokuhisa  Y. Inaba  K. Sato  Y. Miura  H. Akashi  K. Satoda  M. Matumoto 《Veterinary microbiology》1981,6(2):143-155

Eleven, 11 and 2 of 11 precolostral sera from normal calves and 13, 14 and 9 of 14 sera from normal fetuses, 7 to 10 months of gestation, neutralized bovine parvovirus, coronavirus and rotavirus, respectively.When assayed by single radial immunodiffusion, all the sera contained IgG at 360 to 1400 mg/dl, and some of them had much smaller amounts of IgM or IgA. Most of the neutralizing activities against bovine coronavirus and rotavirus were readily inactivated by treatment with acetone or 2-mercaptoethanol. Some sera fractionated by Sephadex G-200 gel filtration or starch block electrophoresis had neutralizing activities against bovine parvovirus or coronavirus in fractions containing no detectable amounts of immunoglobulins. These observations seem to indicate the presence of substance(s), other than immunoglobulins, capable of inhibiting replication of bovine parvovirus, coronavirus or rotavirus. The chemical nature and the mode of action of the inhibitors await elucidation.  相似文献

Neutralizing antibody to bovine rotavirus in various animal species     

K. Sato  Y. Inaba  T. Shinozaki  M. Matumoto 《Veterinary microbiology》1981,6(3):259-261

A total of 288 serum samples were collected from 12 species of animals in various localities of Japan from 1975 to 1977. Neutralizing antibody to bovine rotavirus was found in serum samples from all the species, viz., horses, cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, mice, chickens and human beings. The incidence of neutralizing antibody in titers of 1 : 2 or higher ranged from 31 to 100%, and high incidences exceeding 70% were obtained in horses, cattle, sheep, pigs, dogs, rabbits and human beings. High titers were most common in horses, cattle, sheep and pigs. These serological results suggest that rotaviruses occur commonly in these species of animals.  相似文献   

Detection of transmissible gastroenteritis virus in feces from pigs by reversed passive hemagglutination     

M Asagi  T Ogawa  T Minetoma  K Sato  Y Inaba 《American journal of veterinary research》1986,47(10):2161-2164

A reversed passive hemagglutination (RPHA) method was developed for the detection of transmissible gastroenteritis (TGE) virus in the fecal specimens from pigs. Ovine erythrocytes fixed with glutaraldehyde and treated with tannic acid were coated with anti-TGE virus swine antibodies, which were purified by affinity chromatographic technique linked with purified TGE virus. The RPHA test was done by the Microtiter method. Erythrocytes coated with purified specific antibodies were agglutinated by TGE virus, but not by porcine rotavirus or porcine enterovirus. The reaction was specifically inhibited by antiserum against TGE virus, confirming the specificity of the reaction. A litter of seven 3-day-old pigs was orally inoculated with TGE virus, and fecal specimens were obtained once a day and serum was obtained every 4th day. With the RPHA test, TGE virus was detected in the diarrheal feces; all of the inoculated pigs developed virus-neutralization antibody for the TGE virus. The RPHA test detected TGE virus in feces from pigs with naturally occurring diarrhea. The RPHA test detected TGE virus in 5 of 6 fecal specimens (80%), whereas the positive rate was only 50% (3/6) for the immunofluorescent staining of primary cultures of porcine kidney cells inoculated with the specimens. The advantages of the RPHA method are simplicity, high sensitivity, and rapid to do.  相似文献
