  • To study the usefulness of Se301 cells, which is originated from Spodoptera exigua and has susceptibility to the Autographa californica NPV (AcNPV), as a host for the AcNPV-based expression vector system, we compared the characteristics of AcNPV in Se301 and Sf-21 cells. The symptom by viral infection was similar in both of cells, but the ratio of polyhedra released from the cell was higher in Se301 cells than in Sf-21 cells. The overall PIB productivity of AcNPV was similar in both cells but the size of polyhedra was larger in Se301 cells. While the polyhedrin expression efficiency was about 2.4 times higher in Se301 cells than in Sf-21 cells, the viral growth was higher in Sf-21 cells. These results suggested that Se301 cell is very useful in the AcNPV-based expression system as a host.

  • The aim of this paper was to study the effect of spent medium recycle on Spodoptera exigua Se301 cell line proliferation, metabolism, and baculovirus production when grown in batch suspension cultures in Ex-Cell 420 serum-free medium. The results showed that the recycle of 20% of spent medium from a culture in mid-exponential growth phase improved growth relative to a control culture grown in fresh medium. Although both glucose and glutamine were still present at the end of the growth phase, glutamate was always completely exhausted. The pattern of the specific glucose and lactate consumption and production rates, as well as the specific glutamine and glutamate consumption rates, suggests a metabolic shift at spent medium recycle values of over 60%, with a decrease in the efficiency of glucose utilization and an increase in glutamate consumption to fuel energy metabolism. Baculovirus infection provoked a change in the metabolic pattern of Se301 cells, although a beneficial effect of spent medium recycle was also observed. Both growth rate and maximum viable cell density decreased relative to uninfected cultures. The efficiency of glucose utilization was dramatically reduced in those cultures containing the lowest percentages of spent medium, whereas glutamine and glutamate consumption was modulated, thereby suggesting that infected cells were devoted to virus replication, retaining their ability to incorporate the nutrients required to support viral replication. Recycle of 20% of spent medium increased baculovirus production by around 90%, thus showing the link between cell growth and baculovirus production.

  • This study addresses the susceptibility of Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9 and Sf21), Trichoplusia ni (Hi5), and S. exigua (Se301) cells to the Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV). Although these cells have classically been considered nonpermissive to BmNPV, the cytopathic effect, an increase in viral yield, and viral DNA synthesis by BmNPV were observed in Sf9, Sf21, and Hi5 cells, but not in Se301 cells. Very late gene expression by BmNPV in these cell lines was also detected via ${\beta}-galactosidase$ expression under the control of the polyhedrin promoter. Sf9 cells were most susceptible to BmNPV in all respects, followed by Sf21 and Hi5 cells in decreasing order, while the Se301 cells evidenced no distinct viral replication. This particular difference in viral susceptibility in each of the cell lines can be utilized for our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the host specificity of NPVs.

  • A systematic study of the partial reduction of nitriles to the corresponding aldehydes with thexylbromoborane-methyl sulfide $(ThxBHBr{\cdot}SMe_2)$ under practical conditions has been carried out. The yields of aldehydes are good in the aliphatic series. However, the yields of aromatic series vary with substituents and ring itself.

  • ZnS/ZnSe superlattices were prepared on GaAs (100) substrates by hot wall epitaxy, an the structures were analyzed using x-ray diffraction. It is shown that the x-ray diffraction of the strained superlattice gives very useful information about the thickness of each layer, strain, interdiffusion, and the fluctuation of the superlattice period. Interdiffusion length of the S and Se is estimated to be less than $2\;{\AA}$.

  • Recently, STS 301L joints of side panels to frames for stainless steel rolling stock have been made out by using existing welding methods including Resistance Spot Welding, Laser Welding and Arc Welding. Most of the processes were jointed by spot welding because it is faster at welding and comparatively less expensive for investment in welding facilities than other methods. During spot welding, however, indentation of the metal surface was made due to pressure and melting property of welding. Moreover, since the melting metal was forced to periphery of the plate as indentation was made, sheet separation, which cracked apart between jointed sheets, was carried out. A slight deformation which resulted from sheet separation deteriorated the emotional quality of railway vehicles. This paper suggests that by processing conventional spot electrode tip appropriately, melting metal is able to push up around the processed part (Hollow Spot Electrode Tip) and prevent from being dislodged from first place to periphery. Consequently, sheet separation is remarkably decreased. Also, the emotional quality of appearance of stainless steel rolling stock is enhanced considerably.
