## Abstract Plasmid‐harbouring, sterol‐decomposing organism __Arthrobacter oxydans__ 317 was treated with sodium dodecylsulphate to obtain a plasmid‐cured strain __A. oxydans__ 317 A1 incapable of utilizing 4‐androstene‐3,17‐dione (AD). The strain 317 Al was unable to degrade β‐sitosterol side chai

## Abstract Both radiation injury and oxidation toxicity occur when cells are exposed to ion irradiation (IR), ultimately leading to apoptosis. This study was designed to determine the effect of β‐sitosterol (BSS) on early cellular damage in irradiated thymocytes and a possible mechanism of effect
The bioconversion of the lignan desoxypodophyllotoxin by cell suspensions of Linumflavum and of Podophyllum hexandrum was investigated. The apolar substrate could be easily dissolved in the culture medium at a concentration of 2 mM by complexation with dimethyl-/~-cyclodextrin. Growth parameters of
