La claisification des actinoinyckcs producteum d'antibiotiques Classification of actinclinycetes pro. ducers of antibiotics Ann. Inst. Pasteur 1957, 92/5 (597-604) Tables 3 The classification of actinomycetes producers of antibiotics is dillicult, in the first place because of our insufficictit knowledge of thei- morphology, secondly be. cause of the great variability and polymorphism of the species they belong to. Tlic author suggests a new classification Method, based on the antibiotics pro- duced by these microorganisms, The antibiotics may in fact be considered as absolutely necessary to the struggle for life between rivals; they manifest their activity towards competing bacterial species only; they never show any activity against cultures of the same species. Generally all the strains of one species pp- duce an antibiotic inhibiting the growth of all the strains of the rival species. The author gives several examples of this phenomenon. The antagonism between species may be uni- or bilateral. The narrow slecifit of antibiotics produced by various species can be used in taxonomy for e di erentiation of these species. By means of crossed antaFoni;m experiments, the author has succeeded in dem- onstrating the heterogeneity o many species considered till now as homogeneous. 20-117-5- 47/54 AUTHORS: Krasillnikov, N.

TITLE: qualitative Determination of Phosphatase Activity in Certain Groups of Soil Microorganisms Nachestvennoye almdeleniye fosfataznoy ak- tivnosti nekotorykh grupp pochvennykh mikrooriganizmov) PERIODICAL; Ddklady All SSSR, 1957, Vol- 117, Nr 5, PP- E394 - 895 (USSR) ABSTRACT: The opinions concerning the problem of the exploitation of phos- phorus compounds by plants are divergent: according to some auth- ors organic phosphorus compounds can be directly absorbed, accord- Lig to others, however, they have to be di3integrated up to inor- ganic phosphorus (reference 2). The microorganisms as well as the fermentative systems of the plants are actively takint- part in this latter process (reference 3). The microorganisms washed out from the root-near soil have an onL- weak amylolytic (starch splitting) activity. On the other hand, invertase as aell as ai.Vlase exist in the roots of sterilely grown plants (reference 4)- The enzyme group of the phosphatase has a fu-ndamental ijaportance in the de- composition of organophosphatases and takes part in the biodynamics of the soil phosphatase. This can also be effected by biocatalysts Card 1/3 and enzymes of bacterial origin, even in the case that the soil 20-117 -5-47/54 Qualitative Determination of Phosphatase Activity in Certain Group3 of Soil M 2 icroorganisms does not contain any increasing microorCanis:as (reference 5). Ac- cording to the kincLof the soil and the phosphorus compound this process takes place more or less quickly and the decomposition has various degrees. In contrast to other researchers (reference 10-12) and former works of their own the authors used plienol-phtalein- -phosphate (reference 13 - 14) for the solution of the problem in questionv There is a colored reaction in precence of phosphatase if it is splitted into free phenol-phtalein and phosphorus by these latter. Phenol-phtalein molts red in a buffer solution. From the intensity of this color and from the width of the colored zone of the culture medium around the microbe colony it can be concluded to the quantity of phoophatase separated by the different micro- organisms. The preparation of Elie culture mediuj;i is described. Se- veral species of bacteria, fun,-i, actinomycetes, Acotobneer, and cellulose disintegrating bacteria served as experimental material. The width of the red colored zone around the colony, expressed in millimeters, speaks of the fact that most soil microorganisms have the capacity of producin- phosphatase. Besides ammonificators Pseudomonas species, and varic-a soil fungi which have a consider= able phosphataae activity also the cellulose decomposing bacterium Card 2/3 sorangium has this capactiy. The qualitative reaction suggested 20-117-5-4T/54 QUalitative Determination of Phosphatase Activity in Certain Groups of Soil!

Amon;_st others, a preparation was obtained from fungi of the fusarium-group, which according to its properties, is closely related to the gibberellin acid described in publications and which was designa- ted as "GII-preparation, or respectively as Soviet Gibberellin~ Up till now, the socalled fungus Gibberella fujikuroi has been knovn as producer of these preparations. This fungus has been separated from the tissues of a sick rice-plant by the Japanese scientist Kurozava for the first time in 1926. In 1939, another Japanese scientist Yabuta, obtained an active substance in che- mically pure form, which he called Gibberellin. At preoent, this preparation is produced by many foreigm firrug.

The Soviet preparation 11G" was ob- tained from the fun,-us Fusarium sp., which is further described, The preparation "Stadol" which was sent by Professor P.N.Brian from England (Ref 1) wao also investigated for the purpose of comparison. The separation and chemical purification. of the aub- stance was carried out accordinz to the Stadol-method by the collaborator of the Inatitute for Microbiology, AS USSR~ Yu.M. Khokhlova (Ref 2). It is still unknown whether the Soviet prepa.- ration represents Gibberollin acid, since special chemical in- vestigatione are still required for this purpose. Like the Stadol preparation, it acts already in quantities of I to 2 pg on the growth of plants. The optimum concentration is 50 to 100 vg per 1 liter of water. Great successes were achieved by wetting the young plants (peas, cucuml)ers, main) which is also the case by submitting the seed to a treatment with the "GII-preparation. This preparation ought to be t;~ated by various Drovincial authorities by expcrimental stations, as well as on kolkhoz fields in order to clarify the possibilities of its use in the fields and gardens.

He deals in detail on the stimulating effect of gibbereline, first disdovered in 1926 by the Japanese scientist Kurozava. It was found that of the 3 forms of gibbereline (Al, A2 and A3), A, gave the strongest stimulating effect.

TITLE: On Self-Suppression in Actinomycetee (0 samougnetenii u akti- no4iaetov) PERIODICAL: Doklady Akademii nauk SSSR, 1958, Vol. 120, Nr 4, PP. 900-903 (USSR) ABSTRACT: In the study of the antagonism of Actinomycetes the authors found a certain regularity in the particular nature of the inter- specific interaction. As a rule the cultures of the same species do not suppress each other. Antibiotics do not suppress their own producer (Ref 5). This specific nature of antagonism served ks a basis for the method of grouping and for the determination of the species of Actinomycetes and for the differentiation of the antibiotics produced by them. These methods permitted a comparatively accurate separation without a failure for a number of years. There are cases, however, where such a culture of Actinomycetest when applied to the nutrient medium suppresses the growth of its own cells and of the cells of races belonging Card 1/3 to ito own species. No difforonooe as compared to the inter- On Self-Suppression in Actinomycetes SOV/2o-12o-4-59/67 specific antagonism can be perceived. Zones of self-suppression are formed (Fig 1), this phenomenon, however, being rare. It is observed with the greatest frequency in pigmented species as Act.violaceus, Act.coelicolor, Act. roseus, Act. viridichromo- genes, but Tiso in not pigmented species, as Act. diastaticus, Act.Rriseus. This phenomenon was studied. The investigations showed, that this effect is caused by two factors: a) by phages, which sometimes are the cause of self-suppression of growth, or b) in other cases a particular substanceaausing the death and the dissolution of cells. Pending final decisions, it was called "necrohormone". Long-term research furnished the result that marry Actinomycetes contain phages in a hidden state. These are so-called lysogenic cultures. They are not dissolved under normal conditions of growth. The phage appears only in a par- ticular stage of the Actinomycetes.(Ref 9). Such lysogenic Actinomycetes are sometimes uncovered by the application of pellets of old culture on the recently sown patches of cells. The zone free of growth forming around these pellets is caused by phages, which become active.by an unknown manner (Fig 1b). According to the experiments the authors drew the conclusion, Card 2/3 that other factors than wtibiotics are to be made responsible On Self-Suppression in Actinomycetes ASSOCIATION: SUBMITTED: SOV/2o-120-4-59/67 here, that is to say a) actinophages, b) necrohormones. The ac- tion of'the latter was proved for several Actinomycetes, as Act.diastaticus, in some gray species, and in isolated races of blue Actinomycetos and in other. Necrohormone substances were found in races of Act.violaceus. They were isolated by physico- chemical methods and were obtained as a red solution. They are apparently a mixture of different chemical compounds. Necro- hormones could not be obtained as yet in a pure state. There are 3 figures and 9 references, 9 of which are Soviet.

TITLE: The Application of Fluorescent Microscopy in Incident Light to Soil Microflora Investigations (Primeneniye fluorestsentnoy mikroskopii v otrazhennom avete dlya izucheniya pochvennoy mikroflory) PERIODICAL: Doklady Akademii nauk SSSR, 19J8, Vol 123, Nr 2, PP 366-367 (USSR) ABSTRACT: The authors suggest a modification of the method of direct microscopic investigation of the soil microflora: instead of observing a soil-suBpension in permeating blue light an un- destroyed section of fresh soil is lighted by the mercury- quartz lamps SVDSh 250-2 and -3, and studied in the incident light. Thus, it was possible to see the natural normal dis- tribution of microbes in the soil as well as their colonies on soil particles of any size. The staining method remained un- changed (Refs 1,2): fluoro chrome acridine orange. The color microphotographs (Pigs 1-3) give an idea of the louation of the Card 1/3 microbe in the soil and of its main forms. It was possible to SOV/20-123-2-44/50 The Application of Fluorescent JMicroscopy in Incident Light to Soil Micro- flora Investigations find out that the soil microorganisms are placed in their nat- ural state on the surface of soil particles. Only a few of them are floating freely in between. Some particles are densely (Fig 1 a), others, however, only weakly populated (Fig 1 b). They form colonies different in size (4-20 up to 100 and more individual microbes). Single cells, and chains occur relatively often. The bulk of the bacterial cells in the soil is in a state of ball- or coccus-like fozms; smaller or bigger rods are rare. Mycelial hyphae of actinomycetes and fungi occur. Organic materials, such as peptone, saccharose, starch, and mannitol caused an impetuous development of microorganisms in humus. A lot of freely floating cells occurred. The authors successfully applied the method suggested for investigating the adsorption by the soil of individual species of bacteria (Fig 3). Some species (Pseudomona pyocyanea) are adsorbed in great quantities, some others in a smaller degree (Bacterium coli, B. mycoides), and a third group not at all. As fluorescence device 01-17 was used. There are 3 figures and 2 references, Card 2/3 1 of which is Soviet.

TITLE: On a Gibberella-Like Substance Formed by Soil Yeasts (0 gibberellinopodobnom veshchestve, obrazuyemom pochvennymi drozhzhami) PERIODICAL: Doklady Akademii nauk SSSR, 1953, Vol 123, lir 6, pp 1124 - 1127 (USSR) A!~STRACT: The authors point out the otimulating effect exerted by the gibberella. preparation Ur 1 which had been isolated by them, and by the pure gibberella A 3 on the 1'r1j,ovith of Rudbeckia bicolor (Ref 2). Physical-chemical properties and chromate- grams characterized the mentioned preparation Nr 1 as gibberella A3 or some compound related to it. The preparation investigated -in the present paper comes from Torula pulcherrima, a yeast fungus that is especially prevalent in turf-bleaching earths. It grows well in media without nitrogpn with and Card 1/4 without addition of a6ar. On a,,,ar this yeast fungus forms On a Gibberella-Like Substance Formed by Soil Yeasts SOV/2o-123-6-4/50 mucous, vaulted, semitransparent or transparent colonies deliquescing on the surface of the cult-are medium. Externally, they are very much like the colonies of Azotobacter chroo- coccum. Torula has very large (10-154 and even more) regularly globular cells (Fig 1). They propagate by gemmation, without spores. For their multiplication the liquid synthetic medium of Chapek was used. There, they grow best. After the medium has become turbid (15 - 20 days), the active substance is ob- tained as a powdery raw prodi~ct by advorption on charcoal and elution with organic solvents. The pre;~aration obtained proved to be highly active and was tested in comparison with gibberella preparation ITr 1 as well as with chemically pure gil)I~eralla A3on rosette-like plants of Hudbeckia Wcolor. The preparation in the form of a 0.02r'o' aqueous solution (content of active substance in one drop about 100 was intro- duced dropwige into the center of the ronette or into the axil of an upper leaf of the plants. The controls developed water drops. Figures 2 and 3 as viell as table 1 show that the physiological activity of -ibberella A (Fig 2:1) in 3 0 - Card 2/4 equal to that of the preparation IIr I (Fig 2:2). The sample On a Gibberella-Like Substance Formed by Soil Yeasts SOV/2o-123-6-45/50 from Torula is but little inferior as to the growing of tl:e stems by 5-6 days, as to the fcr~nation of flower buds and the bursting by 9-10 days. The plants on the Torula pre- paration (Fig 2:3, 3:1) are of more compact structure, since the stem is abundantly foliaged, the leaves are of a deeper green, the internodes are ohorter whereas the lateral shoots grow inore regularly and are not so elongated. The controls remained always in the rosette stage (Pip, 2:4, 3:2). This proves that gibberellasand their related substances are meta- bolites which are not specific for t:ic Fusarium ftingi alone, but are characteristic also of other microorganisms, in partictilar of soil-yeasta.

Nr 195 PERIODICAL: Doklady Akademil nauk SSSR, 1959, Vol 128, Nr 4, pp 836-839 (USSR) ABSTRACT: During the last years it has become possible to make use of microbiological processes for the production of hormones occurring in organisms: suprarenal gland, reproductive hormones, and their derivatives. New microbiological proces- see were developed for the production of cortisone (substance E)f hydrocorti8one (substance F) and their derivatives# on the basis of hydroVlation of progresterone into II 0-oxy-progres- terone by microorganisms (Ref 2). Highly effective hormonesp namely prednisone ( AE) and prednisolone ( AF) were industrial- ly obtained in good yields by means of Corynebac.terium simplex. They are used for inflammations (Schering, USA, Ref 3). This method proved to be more simple and less expensive than chemical processes. Aotinomyces lavendulae, bacterium cyclo- Card 1/3 oxydans et al, during fermentation develop a mixture of dif- SOV/20-128-4-56/65 Dehydrogenation in the 192 Position of Hydrocortisone by Means of Myco- bacterium op. Nr 193 ferent ater&ids. An industrial production of A E and AF is difficulig due to the necessary separation of this mixture. The authors made investigations in order to find highly active microorganisms which are able to transform biologically hydrocortisone (1) and prodnisolone (II). The most productive cultures were looked for in vegetable materials, decomposition products of the aoil, in the oral cavity of man and animals, and in other natural, nutrient media, and numerous strains of Actinomycetea, fungi and bacteria were isolated. 10-15 mg of the initial steroid chemically producedo nere added to 2 ml of 8VIo ethanol. The transformation of steroids was con- trolled by decreasing distribution chromatography (Ref 6). By means of this method cultures vere obtained which are able to traneform the initial substances into cortisone, hydrocortisone at al. The culture mentioned in the title actively caused the mentioned process and produced predni- aolone and prednisone. "B" with 1% of yeast autolyeate, 1% of glucose in distilled water proved to be the optimum medium for highest prednisolone yields (790/'o). After 5 hours the process is finished. If fermenta-tion is continued, prednisolone Card 2/3 decomposea. Figuro 1 shows chromatograms of the transformation SOV/20-128-4-56/65 Dehydrogenation in the 1j2 Position of Hydrocorlisone by Means of Myco- bacterium sp. Nr 193 process. The quantitative yield was spectrophotometrically determined besides the i4entifioution of the final produots. They were chemically isolated. Yu. N. Chirgadze (Inatitut biofiziki All SSSR - Institute of Biophysics of the AS USSR) conducied the identification by means of infrared spectra (Fig 2). There are 2 figures and 6 references.
