At 20 degrees C, aflatoxin B1, at a sublethal dose, decreases the activity of alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1), alpha-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.20), esterase (EC 3.1.1.1), chymotrypsin (EC 3.4.21.1), leucine aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.1), and phosphoamidase (EC 3.9.1.1) biosynthesis in Bacillus thuringiensis (Berliner). In contrast, at 41 degrees C no significant decrease was observed. At this temperature, the mycotoxin is not destroyed or metabolized and bacterial cells are resistant to the toxin.

The enzymatic activities of 53 strains of Pseudomonas cepacia were determined by using the API ZYM system. Strong alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, butyrate esterase, caprylate esterase, myristate lipase, leucine arylamidase, and phosphoamidase activities were consistently detected in all strains. Weak activities were observed for valine arylamidase, beta-glucosidase, and N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase. No activities could be demonstrated for cystine arylamidase, trypsin, chymotrypsin, alpha-galactosidase, beta-galactosidase, beta-glucuronidase, alpha-glucosidase, alpha-mannosidase, and alpha-fucosidase. Enzymatic activities of pseudomonads may provide useful information about their pathogenesis and information for identification of Pseudomonas species.

The enzyme activities of four strains of Legionella pneumophilia were investigated by using the API ZYM system (API System S.A., F-38390 Montalieu Vercieu, France) and synthetic substrates. Aminopeptidases were detected specifically against L-alanine, L-arginine, L-aspartic acid, L-cystine, L-glutaminic acid, glycine, L-histidine, L-isoleucine, L-leucine, L-lysine, L-methionine, L-phenylalanine, L-tryptophan, L-tyrosine, and L-valine. Furthermore, the bacteria possesses esterase activity splitting propionate, butyrate, caproate, caprylate, and caprate, but not laurate, myristate, palmitate, and stearate, esters. The enzymes studies were inhibited partially by aprotinin. No inhibition of phosphatase (pH range, 5.4 to 8.5) or of phosphoamidase was observed. Activities of arylsulfatase, chymotrypsin, trypsin, and glycosidases could not be detected.

Enzymatic characterization of 48 Aeromonas hydrophila complex isolates from various sources was determined with the API ZYM system (Analytab Products, Plainview, N.Y.). All isolates lacked valine and cystine aminopeptidases, chymotrypsin, alpha-mannosidase, alpha-fucosidase, alpha-galactosidase, and beta-glucuronidase but possessed caprylate esterase-lipase, leucine aminopeptidase, acid phosphatase, phosphoamidase, and N-acetyl-beta-glucosidase. Variability was found in the presence of alkaline phosphatase, butyrate esterase, myristate lipase, trypsin, beta-galactosidase, alpha-glucosidase, and beta-glucosidase. No significant differences were evident among the enzymatic profiles of isolates from various sources.

The API ZYM system was used to investigate enzymatic activities of Legionella pneumophila and other Legionella-like organisms. Leucine aminopeptidase, alkaline and acid phosphatase, butyrate and caprylate esterase, and phosphoamidase activities were consistently detected in all strains tested. No evidence of myristate lipase, trypsin, chymotrypsin, or glycosidase activity was found.
