    Notes: Summary Intact and castrated juvenile male rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) were treated with testosterone and gonadotropic hormone (GTH) to determine the maturational effects of these hormones on the GTH-cells. Electron-microscopic studies of the GTH-cells revealed that GTH and testosterone in intact animals, and testosterone in castrated fish, caused GTH-cell maturation: These cells now displayed the same appearance as GTH-cells in adult trout, including the presence of globules, a well-developed Golgi apparatus and rough endoplasmic reticulum, all of which were absent in GTH-cells of control animals. Animals with stimulated GTH-cells also had an increased GTH content of the pituitary; release of GTH could not be demonstrated. Animals treated with GTH exhibited an accelerated development of the testes, resulting in complete gametogenesis and elevated plasma testosterone levels. These results indicate that exogenous steroids as well as endogenous gonadal steroids can stimulate the full development of GTH-cells and accelerate GTH synthesis. The significance of this stimulating effect of the gonadal hormones with respect to the development of the brain-pituitary-gonadal axis and the onset of puberty is discussed.

    Notes: Summary Effects of steroids on the accumulation of glycoprotein gonadotropin (GTH) in pituitaries of juvenile trout were investigated by means of scanning cytophotometry applied to immunocytochemical preparations, and with the use of a radioimmunoassay. Effects on other aspects of GTH-cell activity were analyzed by measuring the size of the gonadotrops and their nuclei. Progesterone added to aquarium water and methyltestosterone incorporated into the food showed a pronounced stimulatory effect on the accumulation of GTH. To a lesser extent, treatment with cortisol, cortisone, and desoxycorticosterone acetate administered to aquarium water, and 11β-hydroxy-androstenedione added to the food resulted in an increase of the hypophysial content of GTH. Steroids stimulating the accumulation of GTH in the pituitary also exhibited a positive effect on GTH-cell activity as indicated by an increase in the size of gonadotropic cells. Progesterone incorporated into the food did not influence the GTH-content and the GTH-cell activity. It is suggested that the route of administration of an exogenous steroid is essential for its effect on GTH cells in trout. Comparison of GTH values reveals an excellent correlation between the data from the radioimmunoassay and those from the corresponding densitometric measurements. No correlation was observed between values of morphometrically determined GTH-cell activity and the densitometric values reflecting hypophysial GTH content.

    Notes: Summary Pituitary glands from 6-month-old sexually immature female rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri, were kept in organ culture for 48 or 72 h. Certain groups of pituitaries were cultivated for 48 h on either control medium or medium with 17α-methyltestosterone (MT), or with estradiol-17β (E2) in concentrations of 8.5 × 10-7 M. Other groups of pituitaries were cultivated for 72 h on control medium, or for 48 h on either control medium or MT-medium or E2-medium, and subsequently for 24 h on medium with synthetic LHRH in concentrations of 8.5 × 10-7 M and 8.5 × 10-10 M. Gonadotropic (GTH) cells are identified by Alcian Blue-Periodic Acid Schiff-Orange G staining and the double-antibody immunoenzyme-cytochemical technique using anti-carp βGTH as the first antibody. A quantitative histological procedure was used to study the nuclear size of the GTH cells in response to the different hormones. Secretory activity was estimated by measuring the gonadotropin (GTH) content in extracts of pituitaries, plasma, and the culture media every 24 h by radioimmunoassay. Cultivation on MT- or E2-enriched medium results in an increase of the total amount of GTH in the pituitary and medium, an accumulation of GTH in GTH-cells (approximately 20 percentage points) and an increase in their nuclear size, indicating a stimulation of GTH synthesis. However, autonomous GTH-release is not affected by these steroids. Subsequent cultivation of the pituitaries for 24 h with LHRH causes stimulation of GTH synthesis (approximately 20 percentage points). Preincubation with steroids increases the GTH synthesis capacity of LHRH only when used in a concentration of 8.5 × 10-10 M. Moreover, 8.5 × 10-7 M LHRH causes a stimulation of GTH-release. Preincubation of the pituitaries with steroids increases the responsiveness of GTHcells to LHRH. It is concluded that GTH-production in pituitaries of immature female rainbow trout can be directly influenced by gonadal steroids and by a hypophysiotropic substance.

    Notes: Summary A procedure has been developed for dissociating pituitary glands of juvenile rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri, producing a preparation of single dispersed pituitary cells in which morphological and functional integrity is preserved. The pituitaries are dispersed by sequential treatment with 0.1% collagenase, 0.04% ethylene-diamine-tetra-acetic acid (EDTA) and 0.125% dispase. The cell yield is 0.3–0.35 × 106 cells per pituitary with a cell viability percentage of 95±1 % and single cell percentage of 87±4%. The isolated cells are kept in a suspension system and the gonadotropic cells are identified by the double antibody immuno-enzyme-cytochemical technique using anti-carp β-gonadotropin as first antibody. Secretory activity is estimated by measuring the gonadotropin content in cells and culture media by radioimmunoassay. Isolated cells show an autonomy of gonadotropin secretion. 17α-Methyltestosterone both in vivo and in vitro stimulates the production of gonadotropin in the cells and seems to inhibit its release from the cells. It is concluded that this in vitro system can be used as a model for studying the control of gonadotropic cells in juvenile rainbow trout.

    Description / Table of Contents: Relationship Between Composition, Elastic Modulus and Creep of Phenolic Plastics at Room TemperatureThe mechanical properties of thermosetting material can be modified by the type and quantity of filler or the combination of fillers. By this methode it is possible to produce a certain moulding powder for a certain application. The elastic modulus and the creep are significant values for short-time and long-time mechanical behaviour. The relationship between these both characteristic values and the compositions of moulded materials (multiphase phenolic resin systems) will be discussed.
    Notes: Die mechanischen Eigenschaften duroplastischer Teilchenverbundwerkstoffe können unter anderem durch die Wahl des Harzträgers beeinflußt und somit dem jeweiligen Anwendungsfall angepaßt werden. Für das mechanische Kurz- bzw. Langzeitverhalten sind der E-Modul und die Kriechdehnung als signifikant anzusehen, daher wird am Beispiel dieser beiden Werkstoffdaten der Zusammenhang von Formstoffzusammensetzung und mechanischen Eigenschaften aufgezeigt. Die untersuchten Phenoplast-Formstoffe bestehen aus den Hauptkomponenten Harz/Holzmehl/Gesteinsmehl.

    Description / Table of Contents: The Swelling Behaviour of Thermosetting MaterialsThe moisture absorption of moulded materials can endanger a construction because of the change in volume of various parts. Therefore it is necessary to know the maximum possible swelling of the moulded materials employed at different relative humidities. The swelling of modified phenolic resin systems are described. Wood flour (which absorbs moisture) and powdered minerals (which in this case can be considered as inert) were used as fillers.Different methods have been developed to calculate the maximum possible swelling after a relatively short testing time (ca. 1000 h).
    Notes: Die Feuchteaufnahme eines Formstoffes kann durch die damit verbundene Volumenänderung des Formteils die Funktion einer Baugruppe gefährden. Daher muß die maximal mögliche formstoff- und umgebungsfeuchtespezifische Quelldehnung der eingesetzten Formstoffe bekannt sein. Am Beispiel von Ein-, Zwei- und Dreistoffsystemen mit Phenolharz als Matrixwekstoff wird der Einfluß der Harzträger Holzmehl (im Hinblick auf die Feuchteaufnahme „aktiv“) und Gesteinsmehl („inaktiv“) auf die Quellung untersucht. In diesem Zusammenhang werden Methoden aufgezeigt, die eine Abschätzung der maximal möglichen Quelldehnung nach relativ kurzer Versuchsdauer (etwa 1000 h) ermöglichen.

    Description / Table of Contents: X-Ray Stress Measurement on Austenitic Steels - A Possibility of Predicting Fatigue DamageBased on the results found for fatigue tests on a ferritic steel combined with x-ray stress analysis similar investigations were carried out for an austenitic stainless steel. For that reason the Wöhler tests were interrupted after defined load cycle numbers and the residual stress and the half value breadth of the x-ray peaks were determined in the groove of the samples. The investigation has shown correlations between residual stress, load amplitudes and load cycle numbers. These relations in connection with a dependence of the breadth of the x-ray peaks from the load cycle number have been used for a non-destructive testing model of predicting the life of samples under alternating load.
    Notes: Aufbauend auf Untersuchungen an einem ferritischen Stahl wurden an Proben aus einem austenitischen Stahl Ermüdungsversuche kombiniert mit Eigenspannungsmessungen durchgeführt. Dazu wurden die Wöhlerversuche definiert nach vorgegebenen Lastwechselzahlen unterbrochen und röntgenografisch die Eigenspannungen und Interferenzbreiten im Kerb der Proben bestimmt. Es zeigten sich Abhängigkeiten der Oberflächeneigenspannungen von Lastamplituden und Lastwechselzahlen, die unter Zuhilfenahme der ebenfalls gefundenen Zusammenhänge zwischen Halbwertbreiten und Lastwechselzahlen dazu herangezogen werden, um auf zerstörungsfreiem Wege auf die Lebensdauer wechselbeanspruchter Proben zu schließen.

    Description / Table of Contents: The Effect of Moisture on the Mechanical Properties of Phenolic Moulded MaterialsIn order to use thermosetting moulding material it is necessary to know how the mechanical properties are changed by absorption of water. Therefore, multiphase systems based on phenolic resin, with varying quantities of wood flour and/or powdered minerals as fillers, were examined. The relationship between moisture absorption and the change in Young's modulus, flexural strength and the strain of the outer fibre at fracture was determined. It could be shown that the increase in flexural strength as water absorption began is a result only of the swelling stress.
    Notes: Voraussetzung für den Einsatz duroplastischer Formstoffe in erhöhter Umgebungsfeuchte ist die Kenntnis der durch die Feuchteaufnahme bewirkten Änderung der mechanischen Werkstoffeigenschaften. Ausgehend von in ihrer Zusammensetzung variierten Mehrstoffsystemen auf der Basis Phenolharz/Holzmehl/Gesteinsmehl wird die formstoff- und feuchtespezifische Wechselwirkung zwischen Feuchteaufnahme, Biege-E-Modul, Biegefestigkeit und Randfaserdehnung beim Bruch aufgezeigt, und nachgewiesen, daß der zu Lagerungsbeginn zu beobachtende Anstieg der Biegefestigkeit ausschließlich auf durch Sorption hervorgerufene Druck-Eigenspannungen zurückzuführen ist.

    Description / Table of Contents: The Rest Potentials and the Cathodic Polarizations of Active Chrome and a Chrome Iron Alloy in Sulfuric AcidThe cathodic polarization curves and the rest potentials of active chrome and a chrome iron alloy (25,6 pct chrome) were measured in dependance of the pH-value of the electrolyte. The behavior of the rest potential deviates from that of the hydrogen electrode. By means of the factors α and β they can be explained for the deposition of hydrogen as well as for the dissolution of metal. The equation of the rest potential is \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ {\rm V}_{\rm o} = {\rm B} - \frac{{0,058}}{{2\,\alpha + \beta }} \cdot {\rm p}_{\rm H} $$\end{document} where B is a constant factor. The sum 2 α - β is usually greater than 1.In the range of the pH-values investigated the cathodic polarization curves of the deposition of hydrogen are parallel. The exchange currents calculated from the logarithmic representation of the polarization curves rise with increasing concentration of the acid and increasing content of chrome in the alloy. The evaluation of the experimental results was carried out according to theroretical principles which had been applied successfully before.
    Notes: An aktivem Chrom und einer Eisen Chrom-Legierung mit 25,6%; Cr wurden in Abhängigkeit vom pH-Wert die Ruhepotentiale gemessen und kathodische Polarisationskurven aufgenommen. Die Ruhepotentiale zeigen ein gegenüber der reversiblen Wasserstoffelektrode abweichendes Verhalten, das mit Hilfe der Durchtrittsfaktoren α und ß für die H2-Entwicklung und für die Metallauflösung gedeutet werden kann. Es gilt für das Ruhepotential \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ {\rm V}_{\rm o} = {\rm B} - \frac{{0,058}}{{2\,\alpha + \beta }} \cdot {\rm p}_{\rm H} $$\end{document} mit B =const. Die Summe 2α+β ist in der Regel 〉 1.Die kathodischen Polarisationskurven der H2-Entwicklung verlaufen im untersuchten pH-Bereich parallel. Die aus der logarithmischen Darstellung ermittelten Ausgleichsströme, die der Korrosion entsprechen, steigen mit wachsender Säure-konzentration und mit wachsendem Cr-Gehalt der Eisen-Chrom-Legierung stark an. Die Auswertung der Versuchsergebnisse erfolgte nach den in letzter Zeit mit gutem Erfolg verwendeten kinetischen Ansätze.
