After the extrachon of total lipids from four different genotypes of flax seed (Linum usitassimum) differing markedly in their acyl composihon, PTLC was used for the isolahon of different lipid classes in the neutral lipid frachon [69]. Application of planar chromatographic methods, including PTLC, in the separahon of food lipids has been reviewed with 40 references by Olsson [70]. The polar lipid fraction of niger seed (Guizotia abyssinica Cass.) collected from different regions of Ethiopia could be separated by PTLC on silica gel [71].

Each year in the United States, approximately 76 million food-borne illnesses occur, leading to 325,000 hospitalizations and over 5000 deaths.40 A number of bacterial and viral pathogens that have been discussed previously in this chapter (e.g., Salmonella, Shigella, Campylobacter, E. coli, and noroviruses) can cause food poisoning. Other bacteria that can cause foodborne illness include Staphylococcus aureus, C. perfringens, C. botu-linum, and Bacillus cereus (Table 73-5). Food poisoning should be suspected if at least two individuals present with similar symptoms after the ingestion of a common food in the prior 72 hours.

At the Ebro delta, P. pectinatus is mainly found in the least brackish areas, while Ruppia cirrhosa inhabits transitional zones between freshwater and seawater. Mixed stands of Zostera noltii, R. cirrhosa, and the floating macroalga Chaetomorpha linum develop in saline areas [37].

Despite their lack of stabilizing disulfide bridges Potl inhibitors feature a common, stable fold. The N-terminus is coiled, although in some structures a small /3-strand has been identified. After a turn the structure adopts an a-helical structure, followed by a turn and an other /3-strand. The sequence then features an extended turn or loop motif that contains the reactive site of the inhibitor before it proceeds with a /3-strand running almost parallel to the /3-strand after the a-helix. After another turn and coiled motif a short /3-strand antiparallel to the other /3-strands precedes the coiled C-terminus. Usually the N-terminal residue in the reactive site is an acidic residue followed by an aromatic amino acid, that is, tyrosine or phenylalanine.
