| 1 | Developing a bacteriophage cocktail for biocontrol of potato bacterial wilt显示文摘Bacterial wilt is a devastating disease of potato and can cause an 80% production loss. To control wilt using bacteriophage therapy, we isolated and characterized twelve lytic bacteriophages from different water sources in Kenya and China. Based on the lytic curves of the phages with the pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum, one optimal bacteriophage cocktail, P1, containing six phage isolations was formulated and used for studying wilt prevention and treatment efficiency in potato plants growing in pots. The preliminary tests showed that the phage cocktail was very effective in preventing potato bacterial wilt by injection of the phages into the plants or decontamination of sterilized soil spiked with R. solanacearum. Eighty percent of potato plants could be protected from the bacterial wilt(caused by R. solanacearum reference strain GIM1.74 and field isolates), and the P1 cocktail could kill 98% of live bacteria spiked in the sterilized soil at one week after spraying.However, the treatment efficiencies of P1 depended on the timing of application of the phages, the susceptibility of the plants to the bacterial wilt, as well as the virulence of the bacteria infected,suggesting that it is important to apply the phage therapy as soon as possible once there are early signs of the bacterial wilt. These results provide the basis for the development of bacteriophagebased biocontrol of potato bacterial wilt as an alternative to the use of antibiotics. | Cuihua Wei Junli Liu Alice Nyarnbura Maina Francis B Mwaura Junping Yu Chenghui Yan Ruofang Zhang Hongping Wei | 2017 | Virologica Sinica2017，32，6： | 8 |
| 2 | Hemocompatible polyurethane/gelatin-heparin nanofibrous scaffolds formed by a bi-layer electrospinning technique as potential artificial blood vessels显示文摘In this paper,a scaffold,which mimics the morphology and mechanical properties of a native blood vessel is reported.The scaffold was prepared by sequential bi-layer electrospinning on a rotating mandrel-type collector.The tubular scaffolds(inner diameter 4 mm,length 3 cm)are composed of a polyurethane(PU)fibrous outer-layer and a gelatin-heparin fibrous inner-layer.They were fabricated by electrospinning technology,which enables control of the composition,structure,and mechanical properties of the scaffolds.The microstructure,fiber morphology and mechanical properties of the scaffolds were examined by means of scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and tensile tests.The PU/gelatinheparin tubular scaffolds have a porous structure.The scaffolds achieved a breaking strength(3.7±0.13 MPa)and an elongation at break(110±8%)that are appropriate for artificial blood vessels.When the scaffolds were immersed in water for 1 h,the breaking strength decreased slightly to 2.2±0.3 MPa,but the elongation at break increased to 14521%.In platelet adhesion tests the gelatin-heparin fibrous scaffolds showed a significant suppression of platelet adhesion.Heparin was released from the scaffolds at a fairly uniform rate during the period of 2nd day to 9th day.The scaffolds are expected to mimic the complex matrix structure of native arteries,and to have good biocompatibility as an artificial blood vessel owing to the heparin release. | Heyun WANG Yakai FENG Marc BEHL Andreas LENDLEIN Haiyang ZHAO Ruofang XIAO Jian LU Li ZHANG Jintang GUO | 2011 | Frontiers of Chemical Science and Engineering2011，5，3： | 0 |
