    Notes: Abstract Brain levels of dopamine, serotonin, and octopamine were measured in relation to both age-related division of labor and inter-individual differences in task specialization independent of age in honey bee colonies. The only differences among similarly aged bees performing different tasks were significantly lower levels of dopamine in food storers than comb builders and significantly lower levels of octopamine in soldiers than foragers, but soldiers also were slightly younger than foragers. Differences associated with age-related division of labor were stronger. Older bees, notably foragers, had significantly higher levels of all three amines than did younger bees working in the hive. Using social manipulations to unlink chronological age and behavioral status, octopamine was found to exhibit the most robust association between behavior and amine level, independent of age. Octopamine levels were significantly lower in normal-age nurses versus precocious foragers and overage nurses versus normal-age foragers, but not different in reverted nurses versus reversion colony foragers. Dopamine levels were significantly lower in normal-age nurses versus precocious foragers, but higher in reverted nurses versus reversion colony foragers. Serotonin levels did not differ in any of these comparisons. These correlative results suggest that octopamine is involved in the regulation of age-related division of labor in honey bees.

    Notes: Abstract Levels of the biogenic amines dopamine, serotonin, and octopamine were measured in different brain regions of adult worker honey bees as a function of age-related division of labor, using social manipulations to unlink age and behavioral state. In the antennal lobes, foragers had higher levels of all three amines than nurses, regardless of age. Differences were larger for octopamine than serotonin or dopamine. In the mushroom bodies, older bees had higher levels of all three amines than younger bees, regardless of behavioral state. These correlative results suggest that increases in octopamine in the antennal lobes may be particularly important in the control of age-related division of labor in honey bees.

    Notes: A new solid-wall vascular graft which has a compliance approximating that of the natural artery has been prepared from a copolyether-urethane material. Six of nine of these compliant grafts implanted in dogs were patent on removal, the longest implant time being 77 days for a 4-mm I.D. femoral artery graft. This is in contrast to noncompliant grafts of the same copolyurethane in which failure usually occurred within 48 hr.

    Notes: Using dimethyl peroxide as a thermal source of methoxy radicals overthe temperature range of 110-160°C, and the combination of methoxy radicals and nitrogen dioxide as a reference reaction: a value was determined of the rate constant for the reaction of methoxy radicals with oxygen: is independent of nitrogen dioxide or oxygen concentration and added inert gas (carbon tetrafluoride). No heterogeneous effects were detected. The value of k4 is given by the expression \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ {\rm log }k_4 {\rm = 9}{\rm .0} \pm {\rm 0}{\rm .6 - 4}{\rm .8 } \pm {\rm 1}{\rm .1/}\theta {\rm (M}^{{\rm - 1}} \cdot \sec ^{ - 1}) $$\end{document} In terms of atmospheric chemistry, this corresponds to a value of 105.6 M-1·sec-1 at 298 K. Extrapolation to temperatures where the combustion of organic compounds has been studied (813 K) produces a value of 107.7 M-1·sec-1 for k4. Under these conditions, reaction (4) competes with hydrogen abstraction or disproportionation reactions of the methoxy radical and its decomposition (3): In particular k3 is in the falloff region under these conditions. It is concluded that reaction (4) takes place as the result of a bimolecular collision process rather than via the formation of a cyclic complex.

    Notes: By allowing the t-butoxy radical to decompose in the presence of nitric oxide, it has been possible to determine rate constants for decomposition by the measurements of the relative rates (2) and (3) Process (3) is clearly pressure dependent. The value of k3(∞) has been determined in the presence of several inert gases (CF4, SF6, N2, and Ar) and a value of k3 interpolated for atmospheric conditions. The results may be compared with those for other relevant alkoxy radicals at room temperature. Extrapolated values for k3 in the presence of CF4 lead to the result \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ k_3 (\infty)/s^{ - 1} = 10^{14.6 \pm 0.6} \exp (- 8052 \pm 604/T) $$\end{document}

    Notes: Polymerization of one of the carbon-nitrogen double bonds in carbodiimides has been effected with n-butyllithium catalyst in hydrocarbon solvents at 25°C. Monomers converted to polymer include diethylcarbodiimide, di-n-butylcarbodiimide, di-n-hexylcarbodiimide, diphenylcarbodiimide, diallylcarbodiimide, and methylisopropylcarbodiimide. Monomers which failed to polymerize were dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, diisopropylcarbodiimide, and methyl-tert-butylcarbodiimide. Thermal polymerization and depolymerization of diethylcarbodiimide was investigated and the polymers were characterized. Polymers with an inherent viscosity of 0.1-0.4 (formic acid solvent) were obtained in this work. The steric limitations on the nature of the substituents at the backbone nitrogen and the pendant nitrogen of the polymer chain were elucidated. The cis-trans isomerism possible at the pendant nitrogen is discussed. The failure of a solution of polydiethylcarbodiimide in aqueous acetic acid (presumably a polyelectrolyte) to behave on dilution as a polyelectrolyte is tentatively attributed to the stiff polymer backbone. Depolymerization of these polymers appears to be an unzipping.

    Description: Understanding space weathering, which is caused by micrometeorite impacts, implantation of solar wind gases, radiation damage, chemical effects from solar particles and cosmic rays, interactions with the lunar atmosphere, and sputter erosion and deposition, continues to be a primary objective of lunar sample research. Electron beam studies of space weathering have focused on space weathering effects on individual glasses and minerals from the finest size fractions of lunar soils [1] and patinas on lunar rocks [2]. We are beginning a new study of space weathering of intermediate-size individual mineral grains from lunar soils. For this initial work, we chose an immature soil (see below) in order to maximize the probability that some individual grains are relatively unweathered. The likelihood of identifying a range of relatively unweathered grains in a mature soil is low, and we plan to study grains ranging from pristine to highly weathered in order to determine the progression of space weathering. Future studies will include grains from mature soils. We are currently in the process of documenting splash glass, glass pancakes, craters, and accretionary particles (glass and mineral grains) on plagioclase from our chosen soil using high-resolution field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). These studies are being done concurrently with our studies of patinas on larger lunar rocks [e.g., 3]. One of our major goals is to correlate the evidence for space weathering observed in studies of the surfaces of samples with the evidence demonstrated at higher resolution (TEM) using cross-sections of samples. For example, TEM studies verified the existence of vapor deposits on soil grains [1]; we do not yet know if they can be readily distinguished by surfaces studies of samples. A wide range of textures of rims on soil grains is also clear in TEM [1]; might it be possible to correlate them with specific characteristics of weathering features seen in SEM?
