[Establishment and validation of a neonatal pig model of hemolytic jaundice].

Objective: To establish a neonatal pig model of hemolytic jaundice.

Methods: Twelve seven-day-old purebred Yorkshire pigs were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group (n=6 each). Immunization of New Zealand white rabbits was used to prepare rabbit anti-porcine red blood cell antibodies, and rabbit anti-porcine red blood cell serum was separated.

Molecular cloning and characterization of an insecticidal toxin from Pseudomonas taiwanensis.

An insecticidal toxin gene, tccC, was cloned from the recently discovered novel species Pseudomonas taiwanensis using degenerate PCR and genomic walking. The DNA sequence of the tccC gene (2,940 bp) has an open reading frame encoding 980 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 107.93 kDa.
