    Notes:
    The dispersed fluorescence of the amino acid tryptophan has been measured in the environment of a cold, supersonic free jet. Analysis of the region of the spectrum near the electronic origin indicates that the electronic excitation spectrum contains features which arise from various ground state conformers of tryptophan, confirming our previous assignment of these features. Under the conditions of our experiment the conformers do not interconvert in the excited state during the fluorescence liftime. Analysis of the dispersed emission spectrum of one conformer reveals broad red-shifted fluorescence which exists even when the electronic origin transition is excited. This broad red-shifted fluorescence is produced by the formation of an intramolecular exciplex involving excited state proton transfer to form a zwitterion. Molecules which do not have the ability to form a zwitterion do not exhibit this behavior, and deuterated trytophan shows broad fluorescence in an amount consistent with a slower proton transfer rate. The significance of these results for understanding the excited state photophysics of tryptophan in solution is discussed.

    Notes:
    : Large quantities of both liquid and solid wastes are produced annually by the food processing industry. These waste materials contain principally biodegradable organic matter and disposal of them creates serious environmental problems. Factors affecting the costs of waste disposal are the volume or hydraulic load and the strength or organic load. The waste loads at the processing plant can be reduced significantly through the use of new or modified processing methods and through in-plant treatment and re-use. A number of waste treatment processes are available to make the wastewater suitable for discharge. The most widely applied processes are biological treatment, impounding in storage lagoons, and land irrigation. Most solid wastes are disposed of by returning them to the land. The key to minimizing the disposal cost is to remove excessive moisture from the wastes. Many opportunities exist for better utilization of food processing wastes. A variety of processes have been developed for converting the waste materials into bio-fuels, food ingredients, and other valuable bio-products.

    Abstract Congenital heart disease is a common finding in patients with microdeletion of chromosome 22q11. To determine if the deletion is an epidemiologically important cause of congenital heart disease, we studied a consecutive series of children attending a paediatric cardiac clinic and of neonates diagnosed as having structural congenital heart disease. Venous blood samples were tested by fluorescent in-situ hybridisation analysis for microdeletion of chromosome 22q11 using probe D22S75. Each patient was examined for the other clinical features associated with microdeletion of chromosome 22q11, and any family history of congenital heart disease recorded. Of 151 families approached, 111 participated and a fluorescent in-situ hybridisation result achieved in 87. One patient with microdeletion of chromosome 22q11 was identified; the clinical features were those of DiGeorge syndrome. Two patients with CHARGE association, two with nasal speech, ten with high arched palate, and 15 with minor facial dysmorphic features had no deletion. Conclusion Microdeletion of chromosome 22q11 detected by probe D22S75 is rare in this consecutive series of patients with structural congenital heart disease.

    Notes:
    Abstract Pichia stipitis strain NRRL Y-11,543 was mutagenized with N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (NTG) to improve xylanolytic activity. A total of 20,000 mutants were screened for xylanase overproduction by observing the clear zones around the colonies on remazol-briliant-blue-xylan (RBB-xylan)-containing agar. Of 94 mutants isolated 11 of them were found to have enhanced xylanase activity compared to the parental strain. The most active mutant NP54376 had superior properties to the wild type which included: double the enzyme activity of wild type, a shorter generation time of 2.22 h compared to 3.13 h when grown on xylan, and an enhanced growth and yield of xylanase when low levels of xylose were added to the medium. Zymogram analysis of the crude enzyme preparations from both NP54376 and the wild type by isoelectric focusing showed multiple bands ranging between pI 4.2 and 7.4. No significant difference was observed in the K m and V max values of the parental strain and NP54376. K m and V max values of xylanase for birchwood xylan were 4.2 mg ml−1 and 0.08 μmol min−1 mg−1 of protein, respectively.
