    Notes: Trypanosoma brucei strain 366D trypomastigotes grown at 37°C in the presence of a human fibroblast cell line formed foci underneath the feeder cells whereas trypanosomes grown in the presence of a human epithelial cell line grew only in the culture supernatant. A culture system was developed to study the differentiation of bloodstream trypomastigotes grown in the epithelial cell system into procyclic trypomastigotes at 27°C. The morphological differentiation into the procyclic form was complete by 48 h. Cell division did not occur until 30–40 h after transfer to 27°C. Various characteristics of this system were examined, including the effect of the feeder layer, the type of medium, the presence of the metabolites cis-aconitate and citrate, the preadaptation period, and the trypanosome cell concentration. The respiration of the recently differentiated procyclic cells was less sensitive to inhibition by CN-than that of established procyclic forms, implying a delayed appearance of complete mitochondrial oxidative pathways. This trypanosome differentiation system has the advantage that the animal host is not needed and the entire process is carried out in in vitro culture.

    Notes: Abstract. People in rural areas have disposed of their wastes on land for centuries, relying on the soil's ability to degrade and render harmless any toxic elements the wastes may contain. Leather tanneries produce a large amount of sludge and liquid wastes. The liquids contain much sodium and in most circumstances adversely affect both the soil and groundwater. However, in some countries they are used for irrigation. The sludges contain nitrogen, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, trivalent chromium and some sodium. Given careful management these sludges can be used as soil amendments, either directly or after composting. Application rates of about 200 tonnes ha−1 have proved toxic to crops in pot trials, though larger applications than this have not adversely affected crops in the field. Much smaller rates, of less than 20 tonnes ha−1, have been used in the field to minimize nitrate contamination of groundwater. The effects of CrIII depend on complex interactions between the sludge, the soil to which it is added and the plant species grown. Safe limits for the disposal of the sludges and their long term effects are not known.

    Notes: This article seeks to clarify the meaning of ‘Japanisation’ in the British economic context, and distinguishes at least three variants: direct, mediated and permeated or full. It is argued that a more satisfactory analysis needs to take account of the interrelationships between economic structures, economic systems, organisational units and employment practices.

    Notes: ‘Expert Systems’ or intelligent knowledge-based computer systems can be expected to have a considerable impact in the near future on the dissemination and use of technical expertise in practical situations. The potential benefits of such an approach to decision-making in applied science domains, for example, in anti-corrosive coating selection, are considerable. This paper argues, therefore, that a premium must be placed on such a system's performance as a communicator.The structure and behaviour of a classical ‘production system’ are briefly described, and the communicative ability of such a system is analysed. This critical examination of a production system's question-answering capabilities highlights the inherent restrictions which the structure of this kind of system places on its explanatory and justificatory powers. An outline design for a less inhibitive structure is presented.It is argued that the form in which the system provides ‘answers’ after the completion of a problem-solving session, may not yield sufficient appropriate information to the user, and a possible alternative view of a ‘solution schema’ is proposed.

    Notes: : A common problem arises in testing for trends in water quality when observations are reported as “less than detection limit.” If a single detection limit is used for the entire study, existing non-parametric statistical methods, modified for ties, are applicable. If, however, the detection limit varies during the course of the study, resulting in multiple detection limits, then the commonly used trend detection methods are not appropriate. A statistic similar to Kendall's tau, but based on expected ranks, is proposed. Monte Carlo simulations show that the normal approximation to the distribution of this statistic is quite good, even for small samples and a large proportion of censored observations. The statistic is also shown to have greater power than the ad-hoc method of treating all observations less than the target censored observation as tied.

    Notes: Natural occurrences of ground water with moderate (10 to 50 micrograms per liter) to high (greater than 50 micrograms per liter) concentrations of arsenic are common throughout much of the Western United States. High concentrations of arsenic are generally associated with one of four geochemical environments: (1) basin-fill deposits of alluvial-lacustrine origin, particularly in semiarid areas, (2) volcanic deposits, (3) geothermal systems, and (4) uranium and gold-mining areas. These findings are based on an extensive literature review, compilation of unpublished reports and data, and the review of data bases containing more than 7,000 analyses of ground-water samples for arsenic. In the first two environments, arsenic appears to be associated with sediments derived, in part, from volcanic rocks of intermediate to acidic composition. Dissolved arsenic concentrations in water from volcanic aquifers in the same regions, however, may be low (less than 10 micrograms per liter). Solid phases (minerals, amorphous solids, and sedimentary organic matter) that supply the dissolved arsenic have not been identified in most areas. Alluvial and lacustrine sedimentary deposits appear to be an important source of arsenic in volcanic areas (such as Lane County, Oregon) and in areas underlain by basin-fill deposits (such as Carson Desert in Nevada and the Tulare Lake basin in California). Mobilization of arsenic in sedimentary aquifers may be, in part, a result of changes in the geochemical environment due to agricultural irrigation. In the deeper subsurface, elevated arsenic concentrations are associated with compaction caused by groundwater withdrawals.

    Notes: Abstract The spectra of incoming daylight and shadelight in a mature oak woodland were measured at intervals during the canopy cycle, and mean transmittance spectra were derived. Transmittance was spectrally neutral at ca. 0.55 during the light phase but, following leaf emergence, transmittance of PAR (400–700 nm) fell to ca. 0.1. Simultaneously, the red : far-red transmittance ratio fell to circa 0.6. Both showed little change during the summer and autumn until senescence, indicating that the optical properties of the canopy were surprisingly stable. There was no evidence that cloud cover influenced mean canopy transmittance, although transient sunflecks introduced great variability which, in combination with sampling bias, might explain previous contradictory reports. The red : far-red fluence rate ratio in the woodland showed a temporary increase in late summer, a result of a small increase in the red : far-red ratio of incoming daylight during this period. Reflectance and transmittance spectra and pigment content of sun and shade leaves were measured. Leaf transmittance spectra showed changes correlated with those of the canopy, and were related to changes in pigment content.

    Notes: An SEM study was made of the infection process of Puccinia sorghi in Zea mays. A uredospore germ tube grows across epidermal cells and along their anticlinal walls, often branching and altering direction of growth. The fungus, on attaining a stoma, delimits an appressorium over it. Infection peg initials enlarge linearly and centripetally along the appressorium base, forcing open the stomatal slit. Having penetrated the stomatal aperture, the infection peg develops a substomatal vesicle. From the vesicle, two short primary infection hyphae develop synchronously, a septum later forming between the vesicle body and each hyphal base. A further septum divides the primary hypha into two cells. Secondary infection hyphae emerge later from the fully expanded vesicle on the proximal side of each vesicle/primary hypha septum. Secondary hyphae are narrower than primary hyphae, form their proximal septum some distance along the hypha, develop asynchronously, and proliferate to form the intercellular mycelium. Infection processes and epidermal stripping are discussed.
