CT-DNA Calf-thymus DNA was a kind gift of Dr.G.Luck (Central Institute of Microbiology and Experimental Therapy, Academy of Sciences of the GDR) with a content of 0.28 % of protein, stabilized with chloroform. The stock solution was diluted to an OO26O 0.625 by means of a O.OOl M NaCl solution. 

This appendix has been added to the English edition of this book as a consequence of a critical recommendation by I.J. Dunn (Federal Technical University/ Lab of Technical Chem. Zurich). Most of the simulations were realized at Graz the University of Technology, Austria, or at ZIMET, Central Institute of Microbiology and Experimental Therapy, Jena, East Germany (Fig. 11.33 and 11.34). 

Comparison of proteinase regulation during growth and development was based on the study of Bacillus megaterium 27, kindly provided by Prof. Udo Taubeneck from the Institute of Microbiology and Experimental Therapy,... 

L. of culture suspension of Claviceps purpurea (Fr.), Tul. IMET PA 130 (obtained from the Jena Central Institute for Microbiology and Experimental Therapy, GDR) is stirred for 30 minutes with 8 kg bentonite. It is then filtered through a 10 mm layer of calcium sulfate dihydrate over a rotary vacuum cell filter the practically alkaloid-free filtrate is discarded. The recovered mycella-bentonite mixture is dried in a fluidized bed at an influx temperature of 90° C. until an exhaust temperature of 60° C. is achieved. This takes approximately 30 minutes. There is recovered 20-24 kg of mycella-bentonite mixture with a residual moisture content of from 3-5% this mixture contains 95-100% of the ergotoxin and 92-96% of the ergometrin contained in the culture suspension.

Pasteur went on to make many more advances in microbiology. He also realized the importance of making science an international endeavor and advocated for a scientific approach to the betterment of the human condition. He once remarked, Do not put forward anything that you cannot prove by experimentation. Pasteur died in 1893, two years after the first international Pasteur Institute was established in Saigon in what was then French Indochina (now Ho Chi Min City in Vietnam), see also Chirality Coordination Chemistry Isomerism Organic Chemistry.
