  • Firstly, we compared the two staining techniques, Giemsa and Acridine orange, to determine micronuclei on samples of cultures of five healthy human peripheral blood lymphocytes after ${\gamma}-irradiation\;(^{137}Cs)$ in dose ranges of 0 to 800cGy. It was found that the Acridine orange staining method gives more reliable results than the usual Giemsa staining method in micronucleus tests. Moreover, the frequency of micronuclei in cytokinesis-blocked human B-lymphocytes was studied after in vitro irradiation in dose ranges of 0 to 50cGy. After setting and separating the B-lymphocytes, the frequency of radiation-induced micronuclei were observed as the end-point markers for the low-dose radiation dosimetry after staining with Giemsa and Acridine orange dyes. The micronuclei frequency in B-lymphocytes was significantly elevated from 10 to 30cGy ${\gamma}-irradiation$. The determination of micronuclei in B-lymphocytes after staining with Acridine orange was higher than that of Giemsa. The frequency of micronuclei in B-lymphocytes was observed to be at least two times higher than those of T-lymphocytes Giemsa in dose increasing. Therefore, the determination of low-dose radiation-induced micronuclei in B-lymphocytes after staining with Acridine orange is likely to have the greatest potential in the estimation of low dose radiation exposure.

  • The morphological hetergeneity of lipopolysaccharides(LPSs) and variation in the O-side chain lengths of LPSs of Salmonella pullorum, which was serially subcultured on the brain heart infusion agar containing $100{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ of acridine orange, was analyzed in Sephadex G-50 column chromatography and silver-stained polyacrylamide gels. The biochemical differences in LPS W and LPS A0150 were identified. Increases in the contents of O-polysaccharides of LPS A0150 than those of LPS W were reflected in the profiles of chromatography and silver-stained polyacrylamide gels. In summary, LPS molecules of S pullorum A0150 appeared to be enriched in the molecules with long O-polysaccharide chains than those of LPS W.

  • The site of the synthesis of Japanese encephalitis virus(JEV) in the actinomycin-treated and infecter PS Y15 cells(a porcine kidney stable cell line) was observed by the immunofluorescent antibody technique, acridine orange staining, and the autoradiographic analysis. In the parallel studies by immunofluorescent technique and acridine orange staining it the infected cells, Viral protein(as an antigen) and viral RNA were detected at the same site of cytoplasm. In the autoradiographic analysis, the cytoplasmic labeling of $^3H$-uridine was due to the synthesis of JEV-RNA, while the nucleolus and nucleus were not involved. In the autoradiographic studies on the secton of infected cells, the $^3H$-uridine was frequently incorporated around the cytoplasmic vacuoles. This localization of labeling agreed with the site of acridine orange positive granules. The results suggest that the syntheses of the viral RNA and viral protein occurred in the similar site of cytoplasm of the infected cells, and also the virus particles seem to be assembled in the sites of the viral RNA and protein syntheses.

  • The treatment of alkylated nitro derivatives of indazole with 2-(4-chlorophenyl)acetonitrile under basic conditions gave the new 8-chloro-3-alkyl-3H-pyrazolo[4,3-a]acridine-11-carbonitriles via the nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen which proceeds at room temperature with concomitant cyclisation in fairly good yields. The structures of all newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, $^1H$ NMR, $^{13}C$ NMR and mass spectral data. Fluorescence experimental results of all newly synthesized compounds revealed remarkable photoluminescence properties and strong green fluorescence properties. Also, the new compounds exhibited potent antibacterial activity and their antibacterial activity (MIC) against Gram positive (Staphylococcuse aureus methicillin resistant S. aureus and Bacillus subtilis) and negative bacterial (Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli) species were determined.

  • SS cream and its revised formula, CJ-4001 is topical Chinese herbal drugs for premature ejaculation. To evaluate the genotoxic potentials of these drugs, micronucleus test using Acridine orange (AO) staining method was performed. Acridine orange (AO) staining is adopted in OECD guideline 474 and widely used in micronucleus test. In dose range finding study, no mouse was dead at 2000 mg/kg using single treatment subcutaneously. Therefore, 3 dose levels were chosen at 500, 1000, 2000 mg/kg. (omitted)

  • The effects of anthryl derivatives and 9-aminoacridine on the thermal melting profile of a poly(dA)[poly(dT)]₂triplex were compared 9-Aminoacridine stabilizes the triplex far more effectively than anthryl derivatives. The absorption and CD and LD spectroscopic characteristics of anthryl derivatives are similar to those of 9-aminoacridine when complexed with the triplex; the N atom of acridine, which can act as a hydrogen bond acceptor, plays an important role in triplex stabilization.

  • Spectroscopic studies have been carried out on the metachromatic behavior of methylene blue(MB) and acridine orange(AO) in the presence of chondroitin sulfate A(CSA) and chondroitin sulfate C(CSC). The characteristic changes of the meta-band with the changes of P/D value are discussed in terms of the stacking theory. Quantitative studies on the stacking effect are made to calculate the number of bound molecules of dye per unit molecule of the polyanion. The result shows that MB has stronger stacking effect than AO. A stacking model and the dimension of the bound dyes on the surface of the polyanion are proposed, on the basis of the dimer model of planar aromatic dyes and the most stable conformation of the CSA chain. The model is found to be reasonable in accordance with the experimental results.
