    Poly(dimethylsiloxane)-poly(ethylene oxide)-heparin block copolymers III: Surface and bulk compositional differences (1990)

    Notes: Previously observed bioactivity of poly(dimethylsiloxane)-poly(ethyelene oxide)-heparin (PDMS-PEO-Hep) triblock copolymers has prompted studies of the surface and bulk character of this copolymer using angular-dependent electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ADESCA), static secondary mass spectroscopy (SIMS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Because the low-energy PDMS phase dominates surfaces of this copolymer when solvent cast under air or vacuum conditions, attempts were made to explain surface restructuring and rearrangements induced in hydrated or aqueous environments that permit surface accessibility and bioactivity of heparin moieties. Based on comparisons with PDMS, PEO, and heparin homopolymers, PEO/heparin blends, and an unheparinized PDMS-PEO diblock copolymer, PDMS-PEO-heparin demonstrates both phase-mixed and phase-separated regions in DSC analysis. During annealing cycles above the Tg values of the copolymer constituents, phase-mixed regions become increasingly phase separated and PEO enriched. TGA analysis confirmed the presence of block copolymer constituents and presented evidence of intermolecular segmental interactions, hence phase-mixing in the copolymers. ADESCA analysis indicates that the outer 5 Å of both the PDMS-PEO and PDMS-PEO-Hep copolymers is essentially pure PDMS. However, significant amounts of PEO are detected 5 to 20 Å below the surface. Static SIMS also detects the presence of PDMS at the surfaces of the PDMS-PEO and PDMS-PEO-Hep copolymers. Compositional models based on ADESCA, SIMS, and DSC data are presented for desiccated and hydrated copolymer surfaces.

    Notes: All species of the Drosophila obscura group exhibit within-ejaculate sperm length dimorphism. The present work is a contribution to the understanding of sperm competition through a comparative study of sperm kinetic parameters in four of these species. Videomicrographic observations at 200 frames per second of sperm from males and females, out of the storage organ, prior or after storage were made. Drosophila sperm display both major and minor waves. The former is analysed by measuring coiling diameter (μm) and the latter by recording both beat frequency (s-1) and wave propagation velocity (μm·s-1). Results show that the ‘behaviour’ of short and long spermatozoa noticeably differ: short sperm kinetics remains unaltered after storage while both major and minor waves of long spermatozoa are markedly modified. Thus, evidence is provided here of a sort of “differential activation” which is assumed to result in different survival abilities of short and long sperm within the storage organ of females.

    Model filled polymers. I. Synthesis of crosslinked monodisperse polystyrene beads (1990)
    Bognor Regis [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell
    Journal of Polymer Science Part A: Polymer Chemistry 28 (1990), S. 1909-1921

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Monodisperse crosslinked polystyrene beads of varied size and crosslink density are prepared by emulsion copolymerization of styrene and divinylbenzene in the absence of emulsifier. Tumbling and internally stirred reactors were used for synthesis, with minimal agglomeration at at least 0.22 wt % potassium persulfate and up to 10% by weight of styrene in aqueous emulsion in the absence of oxygen. Particle sizes decreased from 800 to 200 nm on raising the polymerization temperature from 60 to 95°C. The glass transition temperature of the beads increased from 104.4 to 133°C by the inclusion of up to 10% by weight of divinylbenzene. The thermal stability of the beads was higher for peroxide than for persulfate initiation. The crosslink density estimated from the degree of swelling was about one third that expected from stoichiometry. The polystyrene beads are used as filler particles in polymer composites.

    Topics: Physics
    Notes: The aims of the investigation were to use the method of dynamically programmed scans to study in detail some tandem mass spectrometric characteristics of the ion-trap mass spectrometer and then to use the programs to investigate the possibility of performing benchtop gas chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry experiments on the standard instrument. In particular we have examined the effect of applying a DC ramp during the ‘tickle’ period as a means of broadening the range of resonant frequencies, thereby facilitating the tuning required to effect excitation.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Studying biochemical events in human spermatogenesis requires separated populations of spermatogenic cells. Dissociation of these cells was performed by a Trypsin-DNAse method adapted from the technique used for rodents. Cell separation was performed by centrifugal elutriation. Seven populations were collected, one further purified by Percoll gradient centrifugation, giving nine different cell populations. The efficiency of the cell separation was evaluated by phase contrast microscopy, flow cytometric DNA analysis, and electron microscopy. Five populations were enriched in spermatids: two in round spermatids (87% and 73%), another in round (52%) and elongating (44%) spermatids, another constituted by 80% elongating spermatids, and the last by 90% elongated spermatids. Two of the four remaining populations were enrichied in primary spermatocytes (74% and 54%); another population was the upper part of the Percoll gradient and constituted cytoplasmic lobes and residual bodies (89%); the last population was made up of various cells, with no specific enrichment. Electron microscopic observations revealed good preservation of the separated cells; only the flagella from elongated spermatids were lost. Furthermore, an unusual pattern of nucleoplasm distribution during stages 2-4 of spermatid differentiation was observed and its signification is discussed with regard to the shape of the human spermatozoon.

    Notes: Bilirubin, a bile pigment, was studied for its extent of adsorption on substituted aminechloromethyl polystyrene by UV spectrophotometry. By performing simple displacement reactions on chloromethyl polystyrene with secondary and tertiary amines, the amount of charge density and steric factor on substituted nitrogen atom have been varied. Adsorption isotherms of bilirubin at 0°C by different amine-chloromethyl polystyrene homologs suggest the existence of electrostatic interaction of polymeric resin with bilirubin moiety. Results of adsorption of bilirubin to polymeric resin have shown that the extent of adsorption of bilirubin depends on the unit charge, and on the structure of the substituted amine-chloromethyl polystyrene. The effects of porosity of resin on bilirubin adsorption have also been discussed.

    The use of dynamically programmed scans to generate parent-ion tandem mass spectra with the ion-trap mass spectrometer (1990)
    New York, NY : Wiley-Blackwell

    Topics: Physics
    Notes: A method is described whereby, under software control, the scan function employed to collisionally excite ions in an ion-trap mass spectrometer is regulated so as to obtain parent ion (fixed product) tandem mass spectral data. At the same time, constant neutral-loss information is also provided. Key features are the automatic ‘intelligent’ selection of parent ions from observation of the initial mass spectrum and the scanning of the applied ‘tickle’ frequency in order to locate the precise resonance points for excitation of these ions. Results for the model compounds perfluorotributylamine (‘FC43’) and n-butylbenzene are reported and complicating effects such as the unimolecular decay of the precursor ion species and charge exchange between product ions and the original sample material are discussed.

    Notes: It has been shown that the techniques used for estimation of diffusion-adsorption parameters in the past have certain basic flaws. New and efficient techniques for parameter estimation have been proposed. These have many advantages such as using the full concentration-time profile (rather than part of it), time saving, etc. The validity of these techniques has been demonstrated by the analysis of the data generated in our laboratory on adsorption of polyacrylamide and also the data on adsorption of dyes on chitin reported in the literature.

    Notes: Nascent high-molecular-weight (UHMW) polyethylene (PE) samples of different origins show a rather high crystallinity of about 70-75% and contain both a major portion of orthorhombic extended chain crystallites and a minor portion of triclinic crystallites. The triclinic content is greater the higher the molecular weight of the sample and the higher the activity of the used catalyser. A melting / recooling treatment results in a reduction of crystallinity by about 15-25% and disappearance of the triclinic phase. Further, an irreversible conversion of nascent orthorhombic extended chain crystallites to orthorhombic folded chain crystallites of increased lateral dimensions and crystalline perfections takes place during the melting / recooling treatment. The results are compared to those obtained for lower-molecular-weight PE samples and for high-strength / modulus PE fibers of different origins.

    Notes: The optimal production of the fructan biopolymer levan by the bacterium Erwinia herbicola was investigated, including variations in nitrogen, carbon and phosphorous sources, pH, incubation time, culture yields up to 19% by weight produced based on conversion of sucrose as the carbon source when grown in a continuous culture system and processed by tangential flow filtration. Product identity was confirmed with gas chromatography (GC) and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and low-angle laser light scattering (LALLS) determination of the molecular weight of the product showed a significant difference in molecular weight values dependent on the method of analysis. Analysis by GPC resulted in molecular weight one order of magnitude lower than LALLS independent of sample, underscoring the unusual nature of this biopolymer.
