    Notes: In processing full-fat soy flour to an acid-precipitated lipid protein concentrate a byproduct whey fraction results which, because of its high biological oxygen demand, represents a serious disposal problem. Processing of food waste streams by reverse osmosis has received considerable attention because of its low theoretical energy requirement since no phase change is involved. In a previous study at this Center a mathematical model was developed for the diffusive transport of soy lipid protein concentrate whey across cellulose acetate membranes. In this study, pumping energy and power costs combined with membrane life and replacement costs were incorporated into the original model to provide a basis for optimization from an energy cost standpoint. Computer-simulated runs were compared with experimental pilot-plant runs, and the agreement between predicted and actual results was quite good. Water flux rates were in the range of 3 to 7 gal/ft2/day. Computer runs were used to optimize the processing of 100,000 gal/day of soy whey at 8000 ppm biological oxygen demand (BOD). Costs were at a minimum with a six-stage tapered flow primary reverse osmosis treatment over a porous cellulose acetate membrane, followed by a six-stage tapered flow reverse osmosis over a tighter membrane. BOD reduction was 94% at a cost of $5.45/1000 gal.

    Notes: In processing full-fat soy flour to produce an acid-precipitated lipid protein concentrate, there results a by-product whey fraction which, because of its high biological oxygen demand, represents a serious disposal problem. Processing of food waste streams by reverse osmosis has received considerable attention because of its low theoretical energy requirement, since no phase change is involved. A series of statistically designed and analyzed experiments were conducted on a pilot-plant reverse osmosis unit to study the effect of the operating parameters on solute and solvent transport in cellulose acetate membranes. Sucrose and sodium chloride solutions were tested in addition to soybean whey to relate the mixed solute system in whey to that of single-solute organic and inorganic feed solutions. Water flux was shown to have an Arrhenius dependency on temperature, and some membrane compaction was observed with the more porous membrane. Concentration polarization for sucrose and sodium chloride solutions increased linearly with water flux. Solute flux for soybean whey solutions decreased with molarity and was independent of pressure, whereas solute rejection increased with temperature and pressure and was independent of molarity. Good agreement was obtained using the derived parameters A, B, and τ for soy whey in the diffusion transport model when compared to the observed experimental values.

    Notes: The scope and limitations of the potassium bromide disc technique for the infra-red determination of chain branching in small samples of polyethylene in powder form have been assessed. Many of the samples encountered have an average particle size, prior to grinding with potassium bromide, of about 100 μm and very satisfactory results have been obtained, but the presence of larger particles leads to poor quality discs and inferior results. The well established double beam technique proves suitable for removing the interfering methylene absorption and compensation with polymethylene in the form of a film rather than as a pressed disc is preferable. Difficulties were encountered in preparing branching standards in a uniform and fine powder form, to avoid variation of the absorption coefficient of the 1 378 cm-1 methyl band with particle size. Such powders are best obtained by precipitation from solution rather than by low temperature milling. Despite these problems chain branching measurements may be made with a precision of between 5 and 10% and an accuracy of about 15%.

    Notes: Addition of highly purified thrombin t o cultures of several kinds of nondividing fibroblasts brings about cell division. This stimulation occurs in serum-free medium, permitting studies on its mechanism under chemically defined conditions. Previous studies have shown that action of thrombin a t the cell surface is sufficient to cause cell division and that the proteolytic activity of thrombin is required for its mitogenic effect. These results prompted experiments which showed that there is a cell surface receptor for thrombin and that thrombin must hind to its receptor and cleave it to stimulate cell division. Some of the thrombin that hinds to its receptors becomes attached to them by a linkage that appears to be covalent. However, it is presently unknown whether this direct thrombin receptor complex plays a role in the stimulation.These results raise a number of question that should be explored in future studies. They also provide a foundation on which to build hypotheses about tentative molecular mechanisms that might be involved in the stimulation. Knowledge that thrombin must cleave its receptor to bring about cell division suggests two alternative mechanisms for stimulation by proteolysis. In one the receptor is a negative effector which prevents cell division when it is intact, but not after it has been cleaved. Alternatively, a fragment of the receptor could be a positive effector. In this mechanism, proteolysis by thrombin would produce a specific receptor fragment which brings about cell proliferation. If every protease which cleaves the receptor also stimulates cell division, the receptor is probably a negative effector. In contrast, if certain proteases cleave the receptor but do not stimulate the cells, a fragment of the receptor is likely a positive effector. With negative regulation by the receptor, the controlling events would occur before proteolysis of it, and it might be possible to find putative regulatory molecules by identification of nearest neighbors of the receptor. This should be possible by using bifunctional crosslinking reagents. If a fragment of the thrombin receptor turns out to be a positive effector, it should be possible to identify and study fragments by analyzing the metabolic fate of the receptor. Techniques are now available for this kind of analysis and it should also be possible to determine whether receptor fragments remain in the membrane or whether they are translocated to specific sites within the cell. A critical question to be asked is which of these events and interactions involving the thrombin receptor are necessary for stimulation of cell division. It now appears that the best way to answer this question is to examine these events in a large number of cloned cell populations that are responsive or unresponsive to the mitogenic action of thrombin. If a thrombin-mediated event occurs in all responsive clones but is altered or absent in sonie unresponsive clones, it is probably necessary for stimulation of cell division.

    Notes: When 125I-thrombin was incubated with foreskin fibroblasts, cervical carcinoma cells or fibrosarcoma cells of human origin, or with secondary chick embryo cells or Chinese hamster lung cells, it became directly linked to its cell surface receptors. The thrombin-receptor complex (TH-R) was derived exclusively from a pool of 125I-thrombin that had become specifically bound to the cell surface. The linkage was probably covalent, since the complex was resistant to boiling in sodium dodecyl sulfate and 2-mercaptoethanol. Raising the pH to 12 disrupted TH-R, but did not affect a similar complex between epidermal growth factor and its receptor, suggesting that the linkage of these mitogens to their receptors was different. Mild trypsin treatment removed the ability of cells to form TH-R; however, after a 24-h incubation in serum-free medium, trypsin-treated cells recovered the capacity to form TH-R, suggesting that TH-R resulted from interaction of 125I-thrombin with a cellular rather than a serum component. The mitogenic response of cells to thrombin was inversely related to the fraction of specifically bound 125I-thrombin represented by TH-R. The role of TH-R in mitogenesis may be clarified in future studies by obtaining clones of Chinese hamster lung cells that vary in their capacities to form TH-R and to respond to the mitogenic action of thrombin.

    Notes: At various times following estorgen administration, the nuclear matrix was isolated from the liver of male Xenopus laevis by sucrose gradient centrifugation of nuclei treated with a high-salt buffer and DNase I in the presence of a proteolytic inhibitor (PMSC - phenylmethyl sulfonyl chloride). Electron micrographs of the nuclear matrix demonstrate a sponge-like network attached to a well-defined inner envelope with a ribosome-free outer envelope. Chemical analyses show that the HSB-DNase-treated nuclei consist of 16% DNA, 2% RNA, and 82% protein, a composition that is consistent with that of nuclear matrices isolated from other species. The specific activity of the matrix-associated RNA following estrogen treatment appears to be maximally enhanced after 5 h and decreases until approximately 12 h, when the activity begins to increase again.

    Description: Analytical calculations based on the 'polar-cap light-cylinder' (PCLC) (Sturrock, 1971a) and 'polar-cap force-balance' (PCFB) (Roberts and Sturrock, 1972,3) pulsar models show that in either case the intensity of the 511 keV gamma-ray line from the galactic center can be explained as the result of the annihilation of positrons produced by pulsars. The Crab pulsar (braking index approximately 2.5) is estimated to have a power budget of 10 to the 38th ergs/s, and to produce a total number of 10 to the 51.7th positrons. It is suggested that positron annihilation can be supplied by pulsars if the birthrate of pulsars in the galactic center is 10 to the -8.2nd/s.

    Description: The use of solar wind measurements made by ISEE-3 in its halo orbit around the L1 libration point to predict the onsets of magnetospheric substorms and geomagnetic storms is discussed. Consideration is given to the limitations on the predictive ability of the satellite measurements set by the bulk solar wind velocity, the elliptical orbit of the satellite and the correlation lengths of the magnetic field and the solar wind plasma. The ISEE-3 real-time data system is presented, with attention given to the ground receiving stations, the NASCOM communications system, the Multisatellite Operations Control Center and Information Processing Division at the Goddard Space Flight Center, the link between Goddard and the NOAA Space Environmental Services Center, and the NOAA Space Environment Laboratory data acquisition and display data system, which includes displays allowing storm forecasts. It is noted that the entire system should be operational by March, 1980.
