leucaena esculenta/アルギニン

Thirty Angora (16+/-2kg initial body weight) and 20 Spanish doelings (19+/-2kg initial body weight), approximately 8 months of age, were used in an 10 week experiment to evaluate effects of dietary level of Leucaena leucocephala on body weight (BW) gain and fiber growth. The control diet (CS)

Lower amounts of root eduxates (13 mg/g dry root) emerged from leucaena plants inoculated with the mycorrhizal fungus, Glomus fasciculatum, than uninoculated plants (21 mg/g dry root). Mycorrhizal plants exuded less K(+), Pi and sugars (mainly glucose) but more protein, nitrogen, phenolics and

Collagenase (100 micrograms) induced a large plasma extravasation, during the first 15 min after its injection in rat paw, associated with the rapid development of oedema which subsided after 6 h. The extent of the oedema was similar in normal and kininogen-deficient rats. The swelling induced in

The ruminal bacterium Synergistes jonesii strain 78-1, which is able to degrade the pyridinediol toxin in the plant Leucaena leucocephala, was studied for its ability to utilise amino acids. The organism used arginine, histidine and glycine from a complex mixture of amino acids, and both arginine
