4951415 CULTURING
APPARATUS
Waichiro Kawarabayashi, Koichi Matsubara, Toshihiro Yoshioka, Hikaru Yamagata, Shigeru Takahashi, Yukimasa Hirata, Yoshiko Shirane, Kuga, Japan assigned to Mitsui Petrochemical Industries Ltd A culturing apparatus including a culturing tank for culturing cells, organs or tissue strips of a plant, internally therein, and a cutting device for cutting cultured plant bodies arranged within the culturing tank, wherein a push-out means for urging the plant bodies against the cutting device is further provided or the cutting means is made movable so as to be urged against the plant bodies.
4952511 PHOTOBIOREACTOR
PROCESS
FOR PRODUCTION TOCOPHEROLS
OF
Tsutomu Furuya, Tokyo, Japan assigned to Showa Denko Kabushiki Kaisha A new process for the production of tocopherols by tissue culture, which comprises (1) preparing a callus of a plant Carthamus tinctorius, (2) inoculating the callus into a synthetic nutrient medium and culturing the callus to produce tocopherols, and (3) recovering the tocopherols. The tocopherols thus produced are minaly alpha-tocopherol, which has the strongest vitamin E activity among tocopherol analogs.
4978623 METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR EXPRESSION OF BTI ENDOTOXIN
Richard J Radmer assigned to Martek Corporation
Alan M Walfield, Thomas J Pollock assigned to Snytro Corporation
A photobioreactor for the cultivation of photosynthetic microorganisms comprises a tank, one or more light compartments extending into the tank and one or more high intensity lamps whose light is directed into the light compartments. Each light compartment has at least one transparent wall and a means for distributing light from the lamp substantially uniformly across the transparent wall.
DNA sequences are provided coding for Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (BTI) endotoxin, employing bacterial hosts which produce a protein having insecticidal activity for dipteran insects. The bacteriophage lambda strain SYN A4-1 was deposited at the A.T.C.C. on Feb. 22, 1984, and given Accession No. 40098.
H000875 TOXIN-ENCODING NUCLEIC ACID FRAGMENTS DERIVED FROM A BACILLUS THURINGIENSIS SUBSP. ISRAELENSIS GENE David J Ellar, Elizabeth S Ward, Cambridge, United Kingdom assigned to E I Du Pont de Nemours and Company Inc Novel nucleic acid fragments coding for insecticidal proteins, the insecticidal proteins encoded thereby, insecticidal compositions containing such proteins, and the use of these proteins in combatting insects, particularly mosquitoes, are described. Chimeric genes containing the novel nucleic acid fragments, and microorganisms, tissues, seeds, and plants incorporating the nucleic acid fragments are also discussed.
4980161 METHOD OF TREATING VIRAL INFECTION IN PLANTS Ilan Sela, Rehovot, Israel There is disclosed a method of treating or preventing viral infections in plants wherein an animal interferon is applied to the plants.
