A method for isolating and preparing silica bodies in grasses for scanning electron microscopy.

Silica bodies are discrete deposits of dehydrated silica within epidermal cells. To describe these bodies completely, surrounding organic and unsilicified material must be removed. Methods generally used for isolating and preparing silica bodies were unsuitable for most grass species. An effective method for studying grasses is described here. After ashing the plant tissue, the ash was repeatedly rinsed with HCl in a specialized multiple funnel manifold and collected on Nuclepore filters. In addition, the silica bodies were sonicated for a few minutes to remove any remaining mineral impurities. Compared to conventional procedures, this method has a number of advantages: unsilicified material and mineral impurities were removed effectively, smaller quantities of plant tissue could be used, and the loss of silica bodies was minimized.

Anomalous growth of Staphylococcus epidermidis in the presence of Silastic and glycopeptide antibiotics.

In the presence of supra-inhibitory concentrations of the glycopeptide antibiotics vancomycin and teicoplanin, biofilms of Staphylococcus epidermidis on a Silastic surface produce anomalous growth. This takes the form of macroscopic, cohesive aggregates of cocci bound together with slime. This phenomenon was intermittent, independent of antibiotic concentrations between 20 and 50 micrograms ml-1, occurred more often with teicoplanin, and was found both with slime-positive and slime-negative strains.
