Intact mitochondria have been successfully prepared from body tissues from the termites Nasutitermes walkeri and Coptotermes formosanus. This is the first report of the successful isolation of mitochondria from termites (Isoptera: Termitidae). Using

The cellulase from Geoscapheus dilatatus consisted of two major and four minor endo-β-1,4-glucanase components. Two major and one minor component were purified to homogeneity. The major endo-β-1,4-glucanase components, named GD1 and GD2, were simil

An attempt has been made to interpret, in terms of energy metabolism, the rates at 25°C of O 2 consumption, 85.90±1.68 nmol/termite/h, and CO 2 production, 88.40±2.29 nmol/termite/h, in freshly collected Nasutitermes walkeri . The possible roles p

The distribution of the enzymes of cellulose and xylan metabolism namely endo-beta-1,4-glucanase, beta-glucosidase, endo-beta-1,4-xylanase and beta-xylosidase activities, in Reticulitermes speratus (Kolbe) was measured both in the salivary glands and

Carbohydrate uptake and catabolism by the gut microbiota of two species of temperate marine herbivorous fish were investigated using enzyme extracts prepared from microbial pellets. The fish studied were the herring cale Odax cyanomelas (Family Odaci

The four worker castes of the fungus-growing higher termite Macrotermes subhyalinus (Termitidae, Macrotermitinae) were examined to compare the morphology, physiology and microbiology of the alimentary canal. In young major and old major worker castes

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) were identified and estimated in the gut of three herbivorous fish containing gut endosymbionts, the herring cale Odax cyanomelas (Richardson, 1850) (Family Odacidae), the butterfish O. pullus (Bloch and Schneider, 180

The cellulase of Panesthia cribrata consists of at least six endo-β-1,4-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.4) and two β-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21) components. The two major endo-β-1,4-glucanase components, named EG1 and EG2, comprise 13% of the soluble protein in

The cockroach Panesthia cribrata inhabits wood extensively degraded by fungi. Fungal and minor cockroach endo-β-1,4-glucanase components co-eluted on Bio-Gel A-0.5 m. The minor cockroach endo-β-1,4-glucanase components were shown to be endogenous a

Nitrogen fixation has been demonstrated in all families of the Isoptera enabling termites to survive on nitrogen-deficient diets. Termites are uricotelic organisms: uric acid is stored in the fat body but is neither mobilized nor excreted and increas
