Comparison of toxin overlay and solid-phase binding assays to identify diverse CryIA(c) toxin-binding proteins in Heliothis virescens midgut
Article Abstract:
The proteins of 170, 140, 120, 90, 75, 60 and 50 kDa, obtained from Heliothis virescens larval midguts, are linked to the radiolabeled CryIA(c) toxin, as detected from the solid-phase binding and the toxin overlay assays. The proteins are segregated in three toxin binding pools, by the anion-exchange fractionation. According to the toxin overlay assays, the protein sizes are the same for the pools but protein profiles are different. The solid-phase binding assay indicates that only one of three pools posses high-affinity binding proteins.

Predictive model for inactivation of feline calcicivirus, a norovirus surrogate, by heat and high hydrostatic pressure
Article Abstract:
A predictive model is described for studying the inactivation of a calicivirus by a combination of high hydrostatic pressure and temperature. The inactivation of feline calicivirus in a cell culture medium and still mineral water by high hydrostatic pressure and the heat is predicted by an approximated nth-order reaction model.
