Abstract

Dokazana je proizvodnja neuraminidaze (sialidaze, EC 3.2.1.18) bakterije Clostridium chauvoei soja Jakari in vitro pomoću fluorescentnog supstrata. Aktivnost neuraminidaze bila je reproducibilna uz linearni odnos količine bakterija pri nižim bakterijskim koncentracijama. Taj omjer nije bio linearan pri višim bakterijskim koncentracijama (3,33 x 107 do 4,44 x 107 cfu/ml). Raspravlja se o mogućoj ulozi ovog enzima u patogenezi šuštavca. Zaključeno je da bi enzim mogao imati ulogu u širenju bolesti kroz tkiva inficiranih preživača. Uporaba inhibitora neuraminidaze u kontroli bolesti trebala bi biti potpunije istražena.
