[Presence of Caulobacter genus in distilled water].

Schizomycetes have been examined by optical microscope at monochromatic reflected light system, after treatment with a ferrotannic ammoniacal silver solution according to Blenden and Goldberg (1). The bacterial preparations appeared to contain some cellular forms which because of their morphology, could belong to the family Caulobacteriaceae. Further investigations showed that these Caulobacters derived from the distilled water used to prepare the solutions.

[A practical method for the observation of bacterial flagelli].

Flagellar filaments traited with ferrotannic mixture and impregnated with ammoniacal silver solution, observed at microscope by reflected light, present a striking brightness and a neat aspect. We think that the constancy of the results obtained by this method, can facilitate in various experimental conditions, the study of bacterial flagella.

Antineoplastic effects of egg-white lysozyme in mice bearing solid metastasizing tumors.

The differential effects of the i.v. administration of egg-white lysozyme on primary tumor growth and on the formation of spontaneous and artificial lung metastases have been determined in mice bearing two rodent metastasizing tumors: Lewis lung carcinoma and MCa mammary carcinoma. The depression of metastasis formation was particularly pronounced at 50 and 100 mg/kg/day given on days 1,5,10,15 after tumor transplantation, causing a correspondent prolongation of the life-span of the animals carrying artificial induced lung metastases. Contact between tumor cells and egg-white lysozyme seems at least partially responsible for the observed antitumor effects, although no direct cytotoxicity for tumor cells has been detected yet.
