    Notes: . A cell culture of Paramecium with a precise negative gravitaxis was exposed to 4 times 10-6g during a parabolic flight of a sounding rocket for 6 min. Computer image analysis revealed that without gravity stimulus the individual swimming paths remained straight. In addition, three reactions could be distinguished. For about 30 s, paramecia maintained the swimming direction they had before onset of low gravity. During the next 20 s, an approximate reversal of the swimming direction occurred. This period was followed by the expected random swimming pattern. Similar behavior was observed under the condition of simulated weightlessness on a fast-rotating clinostat. Control experiments on the ground under hyper-gravity on a low-speed centrifuge microscope and on a vibration test facility proved that the observed effects were caused exclusively by the reduction of gravity.

    Notes: : The effects of hop extract and ethanol on growth, high pressure inactivation, and survival of Lactobacillus plantarum were determined in model beer. Corresponding to the beer spoiling ability of this strain, levels of hops and ethanol typical for beer did not inhibit growth. Pressure death time curves determined at 300 MPa were described by an empirical model taking into account the sigmoid shape of survivor curves, sublethal injury, and the presence of baroresistant cells. Ethanol (5 and 10%) enhanced pressure effects on L. plantarum whereas hop extract (50 and 100 ppm) was less effective. In contrast, hop extracts killed pressurized cells during subsequent storage in beer but ethanol did not.

    Data and Model Management in a Generalized MCDM-DSS (1991)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Decision sciences 22 (1991), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1540-5915
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Drawing upon the choice models developed in the multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) area, this paper proposes an architecture for designing an intelligent decision support system (DSS) that is intended to aid in making choices among multiple alternatives along multiple dimensions. It argues that effective support can be provided to the decision maker when the knowledge-based DSS is capable of dynamically selecting choice models appropriate to the domain and context of a particular problem being specified by the decision maker, and of properly applying them to the problem solution. Development of a prototype intended to partially represent application of the architecture is described. The paper concludes with suggestions for research extensions.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: The marine otter (Lutra felina) lives exclusively along exposed rocky shorelines on the South American Pacific coast from Peru (6°S), to Cape Horn, Chile (56°S), and Isla de los Estados, Argentina. L. felina diet and its relationship to prey availability and energy content was assessed by spraint and prey remains analysis, direct observation, and the use of crab pots and fish traps, at four sites on the Valdivian coast in the south of Chile, between June 1999 and June 2000. Based on spraints analysis, the diet was composed of 25 species; 52% (13/25) of the species identified were crustaceans, 40% (10/25) were fish, and 8% (2/25) were mollusks. Crustaceans were found in 78% of 475 spraints, 100% of 929 prey remains, and 90.8% of prey determined by direct observation, fish in 20% of spraints and 9.0% of prey determined by direct observation, and mollusks in 2% of spraints and 0.2% of prey determined by direct observation. Observed seasonal variation in prey availability was reflected in the otter diet. Fourteen prey species were trapped; 43% (6/14) were crustaceans and 57% (8/14) fish, crustaceans were 93% of 566 trapped individuals, fish 7%. L. felina showed opportunistic feeding behavior, selecting prey seasonally according to their availability rather than to their energy input.

    Selective Signaling via Unique Ml Muscarinic Agonists (1993)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences 695 (1993), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1749-6632
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Natural Sciences in General
    Notes: Rigid analogs of acetylcholine (ACh) were designed for selective actions at muscarinic receptor (mAChR) subtypes and distinct second messenger systems. AF102B, AF150, and AF151 are such rigid analogs of ACh. AF102B, AF150 and AF151 are centrally active M1 agonists. AF102B has a unique agonistic profile showing, inter alia: only part of the M1 electrophysiology of ACh and unusual binding parameters to mAChRs. AF150 and AF151 are more efficacious agonists than AP102B for M1 AChRS in rat cortex and in CHO cells stably transfected with the ml AChR subtype. Notably, the selectivity of the new ml agonists is reflected also by activation of select second messenger systems via distinct G-proteins. These compounds reflect a new pharmacological concept, tentatively defined as ligand-selective signaling. Thus, agonist/m1AChR complexes may activate different combinations of signaling pathways, depending on the ligand used. Rigid agonists may activate a limited repertoire of signaling systems. In various animal models for Alzheimer's disease (AD) the agonists AF102B, AF150 and AF151, exhibited positive effects on mnemomic processes and a wide safety margin. Such agonists, and especially AF102B, can be considered as a rational treatment strategy for AD.

    Functional aspects of secondary carotenoids in Haematococcus lacustris (Girod) Rostafinski (Volvocales). V. Influences on photomovement (1993)

    Notes: Secondary carotenoids are suspected to modulate photomovement in Haematococcus lacustris [Girod] Rostafinski (Volvocales). To investigate the influence of these extrachloroplastic ketocarotenoids on phototactic and photophobic responses in the flagellate stage of the green alga, flagellate suspensions differing in the content of secondary carotenoids were grown from green and red aplanospores. Photo-orientation of these flagellates induced by unilateral irradiation was investigated using a computer-aided system for microscopic image analysis. Results were hypothetically summarized as follows:(1) Diminution of precision of the positive phototaxis was found in red flagellates. This might be due to cellular shading of the blue-light-sensitive photoreceptor by secondary carotenoids.(2) Red flagellates exhibited an increase in the photophobic response. This finding is discussed in relation to an adaptive increase of the photoreceptor sensitivity, thought to be a result of the higher optical density of the corresponding cell suspension in the blue wavelength region.

    Decreasing transcription elongation rate in Escherichia Coli exposed to amino acid starvation (1992)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Notes: The time required for transcription of the lacZ gene in Escherichia coli was determined during exponential growth and under conditions, when the bacterium was exposed to partial isoleucine starvation. To do this, RNA was extracted from the cells at 10 s intervals following induction and quantified by Northern hybridization with probes complementary to either the beginning or the end of the lacZ mRNA. The time lag between inducer addition and the appearance of a hybridization signal at the ‘late’ probe represents the transit time for RNA polymerase on the lacZ gene, and this parameter and the known length of the transcribed sequence were used to calculate the lacZ mRNA chain growth-rate. The transcription elongation rate was c. 43 nucleotides s-1 during exponential growth and decreased abruptly to c. 20 nucleotides s-1 in a relA+ strain after the onset of isoleucine starvation, when massive concentrations of guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp) accumulated in the cells. The starvation condition did not affect initiation of transcription at the lec-promoter, but a substantial fraction of the initiated lacZ mRNA chains was never completed. For the rel+ strain the polarity was moderate, since c. 25% of the initiated lacZ mRNA’ chains were continued into full-length mRNAs, but for the relA strain the polarity was so strong that no completed lacZ mRNA could be detected. The protein chain elongation rates decreased from 13 amino acids (aa) s-1 in the unperturbed growth phase to approximately 6 aa s-1, when the cells starved for isoleucine. In combination, these results suggest that ppGpp plays a major role in maintaining the coupling between transcription and translation during the downshift by inhibiting mRNA chain elongation. The implications of this result for the control of stable RNA synthesis during the stringent response are discussed.
