| Abstract | The toxic components of supernatants from Pseudomonas aeruginosa cultures directed against HeLa cells and Staphylococcus aureus were evaluated with the aim of discovering interactions. Supernatants of eight different strains of P. aeruginosa were assayed for cytotoxic activity. All were active against HeLa cells; seven were toxic for S. aureus. On repeated suspension of P. aeruginosa in 0.9% sodium chloride solution, a shift from HeLa cell toxicity to staphylococcal lytic activity occurred along with a change of toxic activity from a high (50,000 +/- 5,000) to a low (8,000 +/- 400) molecular weight (MW) range on gel filtration. Addition of protein to the minimal medium of cultures producing material toxic only for S. aureus reactivated the generation of HeLa cell-toxic material. Cultivation of P. aeruginosa in the presence of HeLa cells and a chloramphenicol supplement produced suppression of the generation of material toxic for S. aureus but facilitated that of HeLa-toxic material of high MW. Adaptation of toxicity against fibroblasts developed only on cocultivation of P. aeruginosa together with S. aureus and in the presence of fibroblasts. Under these conditions a strong lytic activity for S. aureus appeared, even in the presence of chloramphenicol. Chloramphenicol caused the material toxic for fibroblasts to elute at a low MW well separated from that toxic for HeLa cells. In contrast to the high-MW toxic substances, the low-MW material did not induce antibodies after injection into rabbits. This may explain failures of vaccination against P. aeruginosa infection and of serum therapy of homologous sepsis in humans. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
