    Notes: The integrity of the cumulus cell processes were studied in four categories of bovine cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) selected on their morphological characteristics. Three different types of cumulus cell process endings (CCPEs) were identified, one penetrating the cortex, another not penetrating the cortex, and a third form was intermediate and more rare in appearance. The process endings that penetrated the cortex frequently made gap junctions with the oolemma. The division of the three types of CCPEs over the four different COC categories was specific for three of the four categories. The first-category COC predominantly possessed the penetrating CCPE, the fourth-category COC possessed predominantly the nonpenetrating CCPE, and the second and third categories had both types of CCPEs. The metabolic coupling of the cumulus-oocyte contacts was assessed by means of incorporation of 3H-choline into the oocyte. The majority of category 4 COCs transferred low levels of choline into the oocyte while the majority of the oocytes of the other three categories transferred high levels of choline into the oocyte. Category 4 includes a smaller proportion of oocytes capable of cleaving after fertilization than the other three categories. This reduced developmental capacity is probably due to the loss of metabolic coupling before the onset of culture.

    Notes: Summary An indirect GC method is described for the determination of Ethephon in drinking water on the basis of the headspace analysis of the ethylene formed from Ethephon. In order to reach the necessary detection limit, the entire volume of the static headspace distribution is transferred into a cold injection system (CIS). There, the ethylene is adsorbed on Carbosieve SIII at 10°C and, subsequently, desorbed at 300 °C. The water vapour included in the headspace is completely eliminated through the splitting system. By means of this technique, a detection limit of 0.05 μg/l water was reached.

    Notes: Summary Phosphine, alkylated phosphines and monophosphinate esters are detected with high sensitivity in capillary gas chromatography (GC) by their chemiluminescent reactions with molecular fluorine. Detection limits are estimated to be 1.3 pg, 0.5 pg, 8 pg, and 17 pg for phosphine, trimethyl phosphine, trimethyl phosphinate ester, and triethyl phosphine, respectively. As found earlier with alkylated sulfur, selenium and tellurium compounds, the detector exhibits a linear response. For triethyl phosphine, a linear range of greater than three orders of magnitude was demonstrated. Emission spectra were obtained for the trimethyl phosphine and triethyl phosphine systems. Chemiluminescence emitters include electronically excited HCF, vibrationally excited HF, and an unknown species in the trimethyl phosphine system. Banded emission from vibrationally excited HF and a broad continuum were observed for both trimethyl phosphine and triethyl phosphine; however, HCF emission was observed only for TMP. Under the conditions employed, the principal emitter is HCF for trimethyl phosphine and HF and the unknown emitter for triethyl phosphine. This detector may have important applications in investigations of the biogeochemical cycling of phosphorus.

    Notes: Summary The usefulness of several grades of carbon dioxide for online supercritical fluid extraction/capillary gas chromatography has been studied. If trace-level work has to be performed, no single grade can be recommended for all modes of detection studied. Good-quality carbon dioxide is available for use with flame ionization and thermionic detectors. With electron-capture detection, however, distinct problems still exist.

    Notes: Bovine cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) were isolated from antral ovarian follicles (4-8 mm). Immature COCs were classified into four categories, based on the homogeneity and clearness of the ooplasm and the transparency and compactness of the cumulus investment. In this study, the incorporation of TCA-precipitable 35S-methionine and the protein synthesis patterns of oocytes of these four categories were examined. Before maturation in vitro, similar incorporation rates and identical protein synthesis patterns were observed between oocytes of categories 1-3. Immature oocytes of category 4 showed reduced incorporation rates and exhibited aberrant protein synthesis patterns. After maturation in vitro, the patterns of category 4 oocytes were identical with the patterns of those in categories 1-3. The incorporation of 35S-methionine into in vitro matured oocytes was lower (P 〈 .001) in all categories.Based on these results, it is concluded that the initial classification of oocytes into four categories can be reduced to two categories.

    Notes: Bovine cumulus oocyte complexes were cultured for various periods and either denuded and orcein stained or radiolabeled with 35S-methionine or 32P-orthophosphate. Specific inhibitors were added to the culture medium to investigate mRNA and protein synthesis requirements for both nuclear and cytoplasmic changes during maturation in vitro. Inhibition of mRNA synthesis by α-amanitin during the first 2 h of culture prevented the phosphorylation of some specific proteins preceding GVBD and decreased the occurrence of GVBD from 97% to 27%. In addition, in oocytes that had undergone GVBD, only part of the changes in protein synthesis after GVBD were observed. Addition of α-amanitin after 3 h of culture had no effect on meiotic maturation. When cumulus oocyte complexes were cultured in the presence of cycloheximide, the phosphorylation of specific proteins was also blocked and only 5% of the oocytes underwent GVBD. Addition of cycloheximide after 4, 6, or 8 h of culture resulted in an increasing percentage of GVBD, but the oocytes became arrested in metaphase I. When cycloheximide was added from 12 h of culture onwards, nuclear progression to metaphase II was increasingly restored.It is concluded that after the onset of culture, both mRNA and protein synthesis are necessary for the phosphorylation of specific proteins and for GVBD. Further-more, transcription during the first hours of culture is needed for the synthesis of new proteins after GVBD.
