The destruction products of thiamine by Bacillus aneurinolyticus cell suspension were isolated by paper column chromatography : the one was 4-methyl-5-β-hydroxyethylthiazole [yield : 63% as the picrate (mp. 160-161℃)], and the other was 2-methyl-4-amino-5-hydroxymethylpyrimidine [yield : 41% as the free base (mp. 190-194℃), 30% as the HCl-salt (mp. 219℃ (decomp.)].

According to the results of the experiment on the factors of reduction or hydrolysis of thiamine disulfides or O, S-acylthiamine and thiaminase activity in the thiaminase solution of fern, shell-fish, Bacillus thiaminolyticus Matsukawa et Misawa and Bacillus aneurinolyticus Kimura et Aoyama, it was recognized that heat stable and enzymatic reductive factors and a hydrolytic factor exist in the thiaminase solutions, and that thiamine disulfides and O, S-acylthiamine are at first step reduced or hydrolysed, then decomposed by thiaminase. In comparison between the decomposition grade of thiamine and that of thiamine disulfieds and O, S-acylthiamine in the thiamine solutions, thiamine disulfides are found to be destroyed with more difficultly. Diacetylthiamine is considerably decomposed by the solution of fern and shell-fish which have thiaminase I, but not by bacterial thiaminase solution containing either thiaminase I or II. However, dibenzoylthiamine is generally hard to be destroyed by these thiaminase solutions.

For the revision of "Standard Tables of Food Composition in Japan" by Resources Conncil, Prime Minister's Office, 136 kinds of animal and vegetable foodstuffs were analyzed for vitamin C. The true values of vitamin C were determined using ascorbic acid oxidase as well as paper chromatography. Most processed foodstuffs were found to be almost free from vitamin C.

Various methods for the release of folic acid and citrovorum factor from their bound forms in human blood were reexamined, and the folic acid and citrovorum factor levels in blood were estimated by the differential microbiological analysis with Streptococcus faecalis and Leuconostoc citrovorum as test organisms. From the data, it was concluded that the enzymatic treatment of blood with hog kidney and chicken pancreas preparations activated by cysteine was the most effective method for the release of folic acid and citrovorum factor from their conjugated forms in blood. With the aid of this treatment, the blood levels of folic acid and citrovorum factor were determined on normal adults. The mean leveles were 8.6±1.6 mγ/ml for folic acid, 2.5±0.9 mγ/ml for citrovorum factor.

Our urinary test was found to serve as an index indicating appropriate dosages in the thiamine therapy. In the procedures of the test an intravenous administration of 5ml of 20% fructose solution is most recommendable. A post-administration increase over the pre-administration levels in the values of pyruvic acid and α-ketoglutaric acid in the urine was found to be an indispensable index by which the test should be judged to be positive. In order to avoid possible errors it was advised that, in case the post-administration urine was too much positive for the test, it should be diluted with the pre-administration urine before the result of the test is finally determined.

Sulfadiazine and sulfathiazole are most antagonized by thiamine except PABA in Tetrahymena geleii W, Bacillus anthracis, Candida albicans, Bacillus brevis and Bacillus aneurinolyticus. In many microbes, low concentration of sulfa drugs promotes their multiplication in vitro.

A basic study to develop a turbimetric assay method for vitamin B_<12> utilizing two mutant strains of Escherichia coli is described. The mineral salts-citrate-gluocse medium of Davis and Mingioli was adapted as the basal medium. The strains employed as test organisms were E. coli #215 and #1544. The former requiring either vitamin B_<12> or methionine was derived from E. coli O-20,and the latter responding to either methionine or homocystine from E. coli ATCC 9537. Both the strains were produced in this laboratory from ultraviolet irradiated cultures of E. coli of wild types by the penicillin technique of Davis and Lederberg et al. The response of #215 to the vitamin was a little better than that of another vitamin B_<12> requiring mutant from ATCC 9637. Methionine interferes with the growth response curve of #215 only when present in amounts greater than 0.7μg per ml. The concentration of methionine, however, can be determined with #1544 as a test organism. The growth of 22 hours incubation was not affected by the presence of amino acids, B-vitamins, and nucleic acids as well as their derivatives, though the organism was stimulated in the presence of vitamin B_<12> during early stage of incubation. The assay of vitamin B_<12> in materials containing methionine and vitamin B_<12> may be possible when diluted to the measureable concentration of the vitamin and less than 0.7μg of methionine per ml of the assay medium.

Vitamin B_<12> in a human serum can be determined by improved technique utilizing two mutant strains of E. coli, one of which, #215,responds to either vitamin B_<12> or methionine and the other, #1544,to methionine or homocystine. (a) Only negligible amounts of methionine are uncovered in a serum after autoclaving it with KCN solution in a acetate buffer of pH 4.6. (b) On the other hand, a large amount of methionine are recovered in a serum treated with papain prior to autoclaving. In this case, vitamin B_<12> and methionine may be assayed after separating them by means of paper chromatography using water saturated n-butanol as a solvent. Results obtained with ten samples were as follows : (a) Serums untreated with papain ; 0.279±0.012mγ/ml. The recovery of vitamin B_<12> added to samples ranged from 87 to 102 per cent. (b) Serums treated with papain ; 0.300±0.025mγ/ml. The recovery of vitamin B_<12> added to samples ranged from 80 to 115 per cent.
