Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a method of testing for compounds which may induce STF-1 transcription. Pancreatic islet cells which express the STF-1/lacz fusion gene are isolated and the effect of various compounds on STF-1 expression is measured by adding the compound of interest to STF-1/lacZ expressing cells. LacZ activity in control and treated cells is then quantitated by a colorimetric assay. Using this method, a large number of compounds can be screened and STF-1 inducing compounds can be identified readily. Another embodiment of the present invention provides a method of using the STF-1 promoter to mark insulin producing pancreatic islet cells in vivo. In this regard, the green fluorescent protein (GFP) served as an indicator. The introduction of the STF-1 green fluorescent protein transgene into pigs allows for the efficient and rapid recovery of insulin producing cells from the pancreas.

Abstract: Presence of a contaminating microbial host cell (A), in a culture vessel containing a different host cell (B) able to use more than one carbohydrate (I), is detected by: (a) culturing (B), which includes nucleic acid encoding a particular polypeptide (II) and genetically marked so that it can not use a selected (I), (Ia), as substrate; (b) plating an isolated sample of the culture on a medium supplemented by (Ia); (c) incubating the plated cells, and (d) detecting if any colonies grow in the (Ia)-containing medium. Optionally (A) that grow in the supplemented medium may be plated on a field of different (I) to identify them from their specific (I)-utilising characteristics. The cells are yeasts or prokaryotes, particularly Gram-negative bacteria and specifically E. coli. They express an exogenous (II) and utilise e.g. maltose, ribose or rhamnose. (B) is genetically marked by making (a) a non-reversing, non-suppressing alteration in its genotype, in which case the sample is not diluted before plating or (b) a genotypic alteration that results in a carbohydrate utilisation revertant or suppressant, in which case the sample is serially diluted before plating. Optionally the strain is doubly marked by altering two (I)-utilisation pathways; (i) one type (a), in ribose utilisation and the other a reverting or suppressing mutation in rhamnose utilisation or (ii) both type (a), in maltose and ribose utilisation. Where two alterations are present, two plates are used in step (b), each supplemented with different (I). The vessel is a fermentor containing, before dilution, 108-1011 colony-forming units (cfu)/ml.

Abstract: Enhanced production of cryoprecipitate is produced by dehydrating an individual unit of plasma prior to a low temperature step used to produce cryoprecipitate. This dehydration is accomplished either by placing a water absorbing material within a blood bag so that plasma occupying the bag will become dehydrated or by placing the water absorbing material within a cartridge so that plasma becomes dehydrated upon flowing through the cartridge. The preferred water-absorbing material is a cross-linked chromatographic gel having pores too small to admit clotting proteins, but large enough to admit water molecules. Suitable gels are made from carbohydrates or polyacrylamide. Carbohydrate gels such as Sephadex3, produced by Pharmacia-Upjohn, are particularly preferred in the present invention. An alternative embodiment of the invention replaces the simple water-absorbing gel with one that also has ion exchange capabilities, such as DEAE (diethy-aminoethyl) Sephadex3 which has a special affinity for a number of blood clotting factors collectively known as the prothrombin complex. Following the dehydration step the DEAE Sephadex3 is eluted to produce prothrombin complex.
