    Notes: We have tested 21 different basis sets of synthetic DNA circular dichroism spectra and have slected one for use in spectral analyses of natural DNAs. This “standard” set consists of spectra of eight polymers: poly[d(A-A-T)·d(A-T-T)], poly[d(A-G-G)·d(C-C-T)], poly[d(A-T)·d(A-T)], poly[d(G-C)·d(G-C)], poly[d(A-G)·d(C-T)], poly[d(A-C)·d(G-T)], poly[d(A-T-C)·d(G-A-T)], and poly[d(A-G-C)·d(G-C-T)]. This basis set, applied according to the first-neighbor polymer procedure of Gray and Tinoco, allows a more uniformly accurate spectral analysis of six natural complex DNAs and eight (A+T)-rich satellite DNAs for base composition and first-neighbor frequencies than was previously possible. We find that spectra of poly[d(A)·d(T)] and/or poly[d(A-C-T-)·d(A-G-T)] are not generally required for good analysis results but we show in this and the following paper that these spectra are needed for the most accurate analyses of some satellite DNAs.

    Notes: The CD spectra and melting profiles have been measured for nine synthetic double-stranded RNAs containing I · C instead of G · C base pairs: poly[r(I) · r(C)], poly[r(I-C) · r(I-C)], poly[r(A-I-C) · r(I-C-U)], poly[r(A-C) · r(I-U)], poly[r(A-I) · r(C-U)], poly[r(A-C-C) · r(I-I-U)], poly[r(A-A-C) · r(I-U-U)], poly[r(A-C-U) · r(A-I-U)], and poly[r(A-U-C) · r(I-A-U)]. CD spectra have not previously been reported for the latter six of these polymers. The substitution of inosinate for guanylate led to recognizable CD differences, with all but two of the polymers having two resolved positive bands above 230 nm. Also, the I-containing RNAs differed from their G-containing counterparts in the almost complete absence of negative CD bands at long wavelengths and in the reduction of negative CD bands near 210 nm. First-neighbor comparisons showed that the CD spectra of the I-containing RNAs were consistent with the nearest-neighbor sequences of the polymers, as previously shown for G-containing RNAs (D. M. Gray, J.-J. Liu, R. L. Ratliff, and F. S. Allen, Biopolymers (1981) 20, 1337-1382). Moreover, two of the first-neighbor comparisons involved spectra of poly[r(A) · r(U)] and poly[r(I) · r(C)], polymers known to be in the A family of conformations in fibers (S. Arnott, D. W. L. Hukins, S. D. Dover, W. Fuller, and A. Hodgson, (1973) J. Mol. Biol. 81, 107-122). Thus, differences in the CD spectra of I- and G-containing RNAs could be simply explained as resulting from differences in the hypoxanthine and guanine chromophores, without invoking differences in conformation. Finally, melting temperatures of the I-containing RNAs were found to vary much less with base composition than do the melting temperatures of G-containing RNAs, since A · U base pairs are closer to I · C than to G · C base pairs in stability.

    Notes: Preparative gel permeation chromatography was used to produce a number of polypropylene reference samples, within the molecular weight range of 10,000-600,000, from commercial materials. Some of these materials were degraded in a controlled manner to give base materials having suitable molecular weight characteristics. A procedure has been developed using a single preparative column packed with equal quantities of Styragel with nominal exclusion limits of 102, 103, 104, and 105 nm. The volume of solvent for recovery was minimized by use of higher loading factors than in analytical GPC (some 2-20 times more polymer was thus fractionated in each experiment). Under these conditions the fractions first eluted were sharpest having polydispersities of about 1.5. First fractions, from different base materials, were characterized by analytical GPC, and those of similar molecular weight and polydispersity were combined to give the reference samples. Refractionation was necessary with the highest molecular weight base material because the first stage fractions were not sharp enough. Some of these fractions were recovered at elution volumes where much lower molecular weight material was expected. Comparison with results from the other base materials indicates that the primary cause of the spreading is not overloading. This spreading is explained in terms of slower partitioning of the larger molecules between the interstitial fluid and the gel particles.

    Notes: The fragmentation pathways of methyl abscisate and its 2E isomer in methane positive ion chemical ionization (PICI) and methane negative ion chemical ionization (NICI) mass spectrometry have been elucidated using isotopically labelled analogues. It is shown that in PICI the most abundant ions are formed by the loss of water, methanol, both methanol and water and of methyl formate. The PICI mass spectrum of methyl 2E abscisate differs significantly in that the loss of water is much less important. In NICI, the most abundant ions from methyl abscisate are due to the molecular anion, [M - H2O]- and [M - CH3OH]-. It is shown, however, that the methyl ester methyl is not lost in this last fragmentation. Two other significant ions contain the side chain and the ring of methyl abscisate, respectively. In contrast, the NICI mass spectrum of methyl 2E abscisate differs principally in showing an abundant loss of a hydrogen atom.

    Notes: A study was made of the flow characteristics of large oscillating drops of pure liquid-liquid systems, using a thermostatically-controlled, rising drop column, 50 mm in diameter and 1000 mm in length. Mirrors in the jacket enabled front and side views of drops to be photographed simultaneously. Single drops in the size range 5-10 mm were investigated with both mutually-saturated phases and when the solute was being transferred from the dispersed phase. The systems studied were (1) toluene and acetone (dispersed)-water (continuous), and (2) n-heptane and acetone (dispersed)-water (continuous). Acetone concentrations were varied up to 3.75 kmol/m3. The oscillations of a travelling drop were asymmetrical; therefore, the amplitude cannot be expressed accurately in terms of only two axes. The area change of the drop compared to that of a sphere of equal volume ‘ε’, was shown to represent the amplitude accurately. The periods of droplet oscillation were uniform for the mutually saturated systems of constant physical and flow properties but changed when mass transfer was taking place. The interfacial tension exerted a marked effect on the amplitude, which also depended upon the oscillation frequency. The amplitude changed with droplet size in a similar manner to the terminal velocity, i.e. it increased with increasing size until it reached a maximum, subsequently decreasing less rapidly. The drag coefficient increased with increasing rate of mass transfer from the drop. Correlation of the results and the area eccentricity ‘ε’ by dimensional analysis embracing all possible parameters and physical properties affecting drop oscillation, resulted in the correlation ε = 0.22 Sr0.42 We-0.53 M0.13 with a mean deviation of ± 14%. This will facilitate more accurate prediction of the interfacial area for mass transfer calculations, relating to equipment containing droplets in the oscillating regime.

    Notes: Studies of flow characteristics and residence time distribution, (RTD), have been undertaken in a range of geometrically similar, laboratory nozzle-type reactors. High-speed cine-photography was employed to record the complex phenomena of liquid mixing in the reactor and also to record on film the colour of an injected tracer solution leaving in the effluent. A novel atomic absorption spectrophotometric (AAS) technique was applied to transform the results of the latter film into response curves. This technique provide detailed quantitative data on the residence time distributions (RTD) for different feed rates. A multiparameter model, comprising a network of CSTR's and plug flows, was developed to simulate the experimental response data. Good agreement was obtained between model predictions and experimental results. The experimental technique and theoretical approach are recommended for analyzing the flow patterns and mixing mechanisms in such reactors.

    Notes: A study was made of mass trasfer rates from single large oscillating drops of pure liquid-liquid systems, in the size range of 5 to 10 mm. A thrermostatically-controlled, 50 mm in diameter, 1000 mm long, rising drop column was used, in which mirrors in the jacket enabled front and side views of drops to be photographed simultaneously. The systems studied were (1) toluene and acetone (dispersed)-water (continuous), and (2) n-heptane and acetone (dispersed)-water (continuous). High concentrations of acetone (up to 3.75 kmol/m3) were used to examine the effect of different parameters on the mass transfer rate, frequency and amplitude of oscillation in countercurrent operation. Previous theories and empirical correlations [2-6, 12, 13, 15] for the prediction of overall mass transfer coefficients showed large deviations from measured values. These may have aarisen because the models do not represent droplet oscillation accurately, and/or apply only to oscillations of small droplets. Fair agreement was obtained for small oscillating droplets as low solute concentrations. The oscillations of a travelling drop were asymmetrical; the period of oscillation was uniform for mutually-saturated systems but changed when mass transfer was taking place. The periods were longer than those predicted by the Lamb [7] and Shroeder and Kintner [37] correlations. Terminal velocities predicted from literature correlations [32, 34] did not give reasonable agreement with experimental data when there was mass transfer of solute. The drag coefficient increased with increasing mass transfer rate from the drop. Correlation of the results and the dispersed phase mass trasfer coefficients by dimensional analysis resulted in the correlation List of symbols at the end of the paper. \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ k_d = 1.6 \times 10^6 \varepsilon ^{2.82} Eo^{1.15} Sc^{ - 2.0} \sqrt {D_d \omega _{\exp } } $$\end{document} with a mean deviation of ±23%, by insertion of experimental oscillation frequency data. This will facilitate more accurate prediction of the dispersed phase mass transfer coefficients relating to equipment containing droplets in the oscillating regime, e.g. pulsed columns or agitated tanks.

    Notes: CD spectra were obtained for eight synthetic double-stranded DNA polymers down to at least 175 nm in the vacuum uv. Three sets of sequence isomers were studied: (a) poly[d(A-C) · d(G-T)] and poly[d(A-G) · d(C-T)], (b) poly[d(A-C-C) · d(G-G-T)] and poly[d(A-C-G) · d(C-G-T)], and (c) poly[d(A) · d(T)], poly[d(A-T) · d(A-T)], poly[d(A-A-T) · d(A-T-T)], and poly[d(A-A-T-T) · d(A-A-T-T)]. There were significant differences in the CD spectra at short wavelengths among each set of sequence isomers. The (G · C)-containing sequences had the largest vacuum uv bands, which were positive and in the wavelength range of 180-191 nm. There were no large negative bands at longer wavelengths, consistent with the polymers all being in right-handed conformations. Among the set of sequences containing only A · T base pairs, poly[d(A) · d(T)] had the largest vacuum uv CD band, which was at 190 nm. This CD band was not present in the spectra of the other (A · T)-rich polymers and was absent from two first-neighbor estimations of the poly[d(A) · d(T)] spectrum obtained from the other three sequences. We concluded that the sequence dependence of the vacuum uv spectra of the (A · T)-rich polymers was due in part of the fact that poly[d(A) · d(T)] exists in a noncanonical B conformation.

    Notes: Molecular weight distributions of homopolymer and graft polymer obtained from the gamma and photoinitiated polymerization of methyl methacrylate with natural rubber latex have been determined. Broad distributions were found with peaks of low and high molecular weight polymer. The distributions were insufficiently defined to make definite assignments to the speeds of the reactions involved but were not inconsistent with the mechanism proposed in an earlier paper from kinetic considerations. Details are given of the column fractionation apparatus employed.
