    Notes: Abstract Several mineral rhizotoxicities, including those induced by Al3+, H+, and Na+, can be relieved by elevated Ca2+ in the rooting medium. This leads to the hypothesis that the toxic cations displace Ca2+ from transport channels or surface ligands that must be occupied by Ca2+ in order for root elongation to occur. In this study with wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings, we have determined, in the case of Al3+, that (i) Ca2+, Mg2+, and Sr2+ are equally ameliorative, (ii) that root elongation does not increase as Ca2+ replaces Mg2+ or Sr2+ in the rooting media, and (iii) that rhizotoxicity is a function solely of Al3+ activity at the root-cell membrane surface as computed by a Gouy-Chapman-Stern model. The rhizotoxicity was indifferent to the computed membrane-surface Ca2+ activity. The rhizotoxicity induced by high levels of tris(ethylenediamine)cobaltic ion (TEC3+), in contrast to Al3+, was specifically relieved by Ca2+ at the membrane surface. The rhizotoxicity induced by H+ exhibited a weak specific response to Ca2+ at the membrane surface. We conclude that the Ca2+-displacement hypothesis fails in the case of Al3+ rhizotoxicity and that amelioration by cations (including monovalent cations) occurs because of decreased membrane-surface negativity and the consequent decrease in the membrane-surface activity of Al3+. However, TEC3+, but not Al3+, may be toxic because it inhibits Ca2+ uptake. The nature of the specific H+-Ca2+ interaction is uncertain.

    Notes: Abstract The cation Al3+ is toxic to plants at micromolar concentrations and can severely inhibit root growth in solution experiments. Trivalent aluminum hydrolyzes in solution, and, apart from the Al3+ ion, which dominates speciation below pH 5.0, various mononuclear and polynuclear hydroxy-Al species can also occur (Kinraide 1991). Accumulating evidence suggests that Al3+ is the rhizotoxic species under the experimental conditions used in the present study (Kinraide 1991; Kinraide et al. 1992). The inhibition of Ca2+ uptake in roots by Al3+ has been proposed as a possible mechanism for Al3+ toxicity, and in this study the hypothesis was tested directly. Root growth and Ca2+ uptake were measured in 5-d-old seedlings of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. Thell) during exposure to Al3+ in a low-Ca2+ basal medium, and to Al3+ in the presence of added cations. Uptake of Ca2+ in whole roots and translocation to the shoot were measured using 45Ca2+, and localized measurements of net Ca2+ flux were also made at the root apex using the technique of microelectrode ion-flux estimation. Treatment with 2.64 μM AlCl3 in 226 μM CaCl2, at pH 4.5, severely inhibited root growth without affecting Ca2+ uptake. Addition of 30 mM Na2+, 3 mM Mg2+ or 50 μM tris(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) to this Al3+ treatment restored root growth but significantly reduced Ca2+ uptake measured over the entire root system and at the root apex. The Al3+ and Ca2+ concentrations were adjusted so that the activities of the Al3+ and Ca2+ ions were constant in all solutions (1.5 μM and 200 μM, respectively). Root growth can be severely inhibited by Al3+ concentrations that do not affect Ca2+ uptake, while the addition of ameliorating cations depresses Ca2+ uptake. These results argue against the hypothesis that Al3+ inhibits root growth by reducing Ca2+ uptake.

    Notes: The synthesis of tri-N-acetylated heparin pentasaccharide 2 is described. It was assembled from five suitably blocked monosaccharide units (3-7). Glucuronic-acid building block 4 was prepared from glucose by direct Jones oxidation of the 6-O-trityl derivative 18. The resulting acid 16 was esterified to 17 in large mounts using methyl chloroformate/base. Trimethylsilyl bromide proved to be an excellent reagent for the hydrolysis of a prop-1-enyl glycoside (19 →21). The pentasaccharide 29 was obtained by a [2 + 2] + 1 synthesis, the glycosylation reactions furnished good to very good yields. The identity of protected oligosaccharides was confirmed by 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Sequential deblocking of the pentasaccharide, O-sulfation, and N-acetylation gave 2 which was shown to exhibit ca. 600 times lower anticoagulant activity than pentasaccharide 1.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wird über den Beginn einer Untersuchung zur Kristallisationskinetik von Polycaprolacton (Poly(1-oxy-6-oxohexamethylene) (1)) berichtet. Die primäre Keimbildung und das primäre Sphärolith-Wachstum aus der Polymerschmelze werden bei hinreichend hohen Temperaturen verfolgt, wodurch sichergestellt ist, daß das Wachstum der Kristallite durch Keimbildung bestimmt ist. Die kinetischen Daten werden weitgehend mit Hilfe des Avrami-Modells interpretiert, welches sich gut auf die Kristallisation von 1 anwenden ließ.
    Notes: A kinetic crystallization study of polycaprolactone (poly(1-oxy-6-oxohexamethylene) (1)) has been initiated to investigate the primary nucleation and primary spherulitic growth from a polymer melt at temperatures that are high enough to insure nucleation-limited crystallite growth. The analysis of the kinetic data is largely made on the basis of an Avrami model which proved to be well suited for the interpretation of the crystallization of 1.

    Notes: Finding methods for the optimization of weights in feedforward neural networks has become an ongoing developmental process in connectionist research. The current focus on finding new methods for the optimization of weights is mostly the result of the slow and unreliable convergence properties of the gradient descent optimization used in the original back-propagation algorithm. More accurate and computationally expensive second-order gradient methods have displaced earlier first-order gradient optimization of the network connection weights. The global, extended Kalman filter is among the most accurate and computationally expensive of these second-order weight optimization methods. The iterative, second-order nature of the filter results in a large number of calculations for each sweep of the training set. This can increase the training time dramatically when training is conducted with data sets that contain large numbers of training patterns. In this paper an adaptive variant of the global, extended Kalman filter that exhibits substantially improved convergence properties is presented and discussed. The adaptive mechanism permits more rapid convergence of network training by identifying data that contain redundant information and avoiding calculations based on this redundant information.

    Notes: A general mathematical model of the chemostat system is developed in order to define an experimental program of dynamic testing. A glucose-limited culture ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae was grown in a chemostat using chemically defined medium. The chemostat was perturbed from an initial steady state by changes in input glucose concentration, dilution rate, pH, and temperature. Dynamic responses of cell mass, glucose, cell number, RNA, and protein concentrations were measured. A number of simulation techniques were used in developing a dynamic mathematical model and in comparing the developed model with experimental data as well as the Monod model. The resulting model was found to be quantitatively accurate and superior to the Monod model. The developed model was interpreted in the light of cell physiology. Adjustment of intracellular RNA fraction was found to be rate limiting in acceleration of cell specific growth rate.

    Notes: An HPLC method utilizing a UV and a fluorimetric detector linked in series is described. By use of a simple integrator-controlled time-switched relay, analysis of serum vitamin A and E is accomplished on the same chromatogram and at optimum sensitivity for each detector. A single internal standard (retinyl acetate) monitored only by the UV detector permits measurement of both vitamins over a wide linear range. Precision of the assays is satisfactory, both on a within-day and on a day-to-day basis. Recoveries of both vitamins are virtually 100% whilst sensitivity is 2 μg/L (retinol) and 0.05 mg/L (α-tocopherol).

    Notes: A procedure is described for preparing fairly uniform spheres of three different nylon polymers by phase separation. The mean diameter and polydisperse index were 5 μm and 1.056 for Griltex nylon, 5.7 μm and 1.046 for nylon 6/6, and 12.9 μm and 1.016 for nylon 6. The phase separation is done by taking a 1 wt % solution in a theta solvent above the theta temperature and cooling it rapidly. The spheres of the three nylons have various degrees of roughness. Formation of highly uniform particles during phase separation is discussed in a preliminary way. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Composition of Mixtures of Hydrocarbons after BIRCH-Reduction of Substituted Benzenes and Acid Catalyzed Addition of Alcohols to Alkylsubstituted Cyclohexenes and Cyclohexa-1,4-dienes.10 different benzene hydrocarbons 1, indane, tetraline, anisol and phenol are reduced by sodium in liquid ammonia in the presence of methanol to the BIRCH products 2. The product mixture compositions are determined through capillary GLC. On storage at + 6°C some rearomatization of the 1,4-cyclohexadienes 2 occurs. Data of the 1H- and 13C-n.m.r. spectra and also mass spectra of the BIRCH 1,4-dienes 2 are given. For comparison 4-alkoxycyclohexenes 4 and 1-alkoxy-1-methylcyclohexanes 8 are prepared and spectroscopically characterized. Acid-catalyzed addition of alcohols to the 1,4-cyclohexadiene systems is a slow process and gives the 4-alkoxy-4-alkylcyclohex-1-enes (4) only in moderate yields up to 30 %. Most of the products are dimers 5 and also oligomers 6 of the parent hydrocarbons 2.

    Notes: Three Component Reactions. XX. Methoxymercuration of Cyclohexa-1,4-dienes.The methoxymercuration of several cyclohexa-1,4-dienes leads to insoluble mixtures of mono- and bismercuricompounds 2-4 and 5-7. After reduction with NaBH4/NaOH mixtures of methoxycyclohexenes and bismethoxycyclohexanes result. The result of capillary gaschromatographic analyses and n.m.r. spectra allow a semiquantitative evaluation of the reaction pathways.
