Detection and identification of amanitins in the wood-rotting fungi Galerina fasciculata and Galerina helvoliceps
Article Abstract:
Research was conducted to determine and identify amanitins in the wood-rotting fungi Galerina fasciculata and G helvoliceps. Over 600 strains of wood-rotting fungi were screened which yielded three strains of G fasciculata and 18 strains of G helvoliceps with amanitins. Results indicate that the purified amanitin fractions from the species were identical to authentic amanitins, suggesting that the two species must be handled as poisonous mushrooms.

Analysis of antigens present in the extracellular products and cell surface of Vibrio anguillarum serotype O1, O2 and O3
Article Abstract:
In fish vaccination programs against vibriosis, it is necessary to include Vibrio anguillarum strains representing O1, O2-alpha, O3A and O3B causing the disease in the formulation of vaccines. Dot blot, slide agglutination and quantitative agglutination test shows that O1 V. anguillarum isolates formed a homogenous group whereas there were two different patterns of serological reactions in O2 and O3 serotypes.
