A previously undescribed denitrifying bacterium was isolated from soil. The cells are small gram-negative rods, asporogenous, and non-motile. Colonies become yellow after long exposure to light. This colouring is due to the production of a carotenoid pigment. The organism shows no fermenting activit

Two electrophoretically different forms of superoxide dismutase, one of them containing manganese-protein and the other iron-protein, were detected in eleven different strains of the genus Flavobacterium. The activities of the different strains were similar to those described for other bacteria. The

This report concerns the effect of bacterial endotoxin [lipopolysaccharide(LPS) and lipid A] on cultured human fetal astrocytes. Exposure to 1 micrograms/ml LPS or lipid A caused a striking stimulation of the rate of proliferation of the cells. The effect was most pronounced with exponentially growi
