    Description: EXTRACT (SEE PDF FOR FULL ABSTRACT):The seasonal cycles of coastal wind stress, adjusted sea level height (ASL), shelf currents and water temperatures off the west coast of North America (35°N to 48°N) were estimated by fitting annual and semiannual harmonics to data from 1981-1983. Longer records of monthly ASL indicate that these two harmonics adequately represent the long-term monthly average seasonal cycle, and that the current measurement period is long enough to define the seasonal cycles, with relatively small errors in magnitude and phase.

    Description: Principal coordinates analysis and multiple regression analysis were used to determine the environmental factors associated with the decline in phytoplankton production during and after the 1977 drought for the San Francisco Bay-Delta Estuary. Physical, chemical and biological data were collected semimonthly or monthly during the spring-summer between 1973 and 1982 from 15 sampling sites located throughout the Bay-Delta. A decline in phytoplanktoncommunity diversity and density during the 1977 drought and subsequent years (1978 through 1981) was described using principal coordinates analysis. The best multiple regression which described the changes in phytoplankton community succession contained the variables water temperature, wind velocity and ortho-phosphateconcentration. Together these variables accounted for 61 percent of the variation in the phytoplankton community among years described by principal coordinates analysis. An increase in water temperature, wind velocity and ortho-phosphate concentration within the Bay-Delta, beginning in June 1976 and continuing through 1981, was demonstrated using weighted moving averages. From the strong association between phytoplankton community succession and climatic variables it was hypothesized that the decline in phytoplankton production during and after the 1977 drought was associated with climatic changes within the northeast Pacific.

    Description: Seabed mapping was completed using a Reson 8101 multibeam system to delineate the seabed morphology in the vicinity of the wreck USS Mississinewa located in water depths of around 40 m in Ulithi Atoll. A second area was mapped in Ulithi Atoll along the NE eastern margin of the lagoon from Masu to Asor island. Results of this mapping did not delineate any extraordinary feature other than the existing morphology of the seabed. The most interesting feature seen were elliptical-shaped mounds which may imply bi-directional bottom currents of similar magnitudes. The mapping of Yap harbour was also completed. These results have been presented in map form as contours and as soundings. The results of the mapping for Yap and Ulithi are available in GIS format. Digital side-scan imagery for all surveyed lines for both Ulithi and Yap harbour were collected and is presently only archived for processing should this facility become available. Conclusions are: The dataset for Ulithi lagoon provides excellent baseline information for long-term assessment of the impacts of the wrecks on the environment. Detailed maps and visualisation of seabed wrecks provides an opportunity for tourism e.g. a potential dive sites. The completion of the multibeam survey of Yap harbour and approaches provides for excellent baseline data for future infrastructure development. Recommendations are: Updating of the existing topographic map for Yap to account for expanding infrastructure in Colonia harbour should be completed. The use of IKONOS imagery in GIS provides an immediate solution for new and up-to-date maps for development planning.

    Notes: This paper deals with the problem of defining, and measuring, the pH inside the water pool (which we define as pHwp) of reverse micelles, i.e. micelles formed by surfactants dissolved in apolar solvents in the presence of minimal amounts of water. The conceptual and experimental difficulties are discussed, and it is argued that no absolute determination of pHwp is possible, mostly because water in the water pools of reverse micelles is a new solvent, for which no standardization of acidity is available. The problem can be approached only on the basis of an empirical acidity scale.An empirical acidity scale for water pools in reverse micelles of bis (2-ethyl-hexyl) sodium sulfosuccinate (AOT) in isooctane has been defined by measuring the 31P-chemical shifts of phosphate buffers. The chemical shifts in bulk water were compared to those found in reverse micelles under the assumption that the pK of phosphate ion is the same in the two systems. It was found that in most cases there was little difference (less than 0.4 pH units) between pHwp and the pH of the starting buffer in bulk water (which we define as pHst). However, this difference between pHwp and pHst may become much larger in certain cases.The difference (pHwp-pHst) is measured under a variety of conditions, and this permits the determination of an operational acidity in the micelle water pools as a function of the pHst with which the aqueous micelles are prepared. The significance of such data for interpreting the behaviour of enzymes confined in the micelles water pool is discussed. Based on the pHwp scale, the apparent pKa of phenol-red and 4-nitrophenol were determined in reverse micelles containing different buffers and different water content. The pKa values obtained were rather sensitive to changes of both these factors, which was taken to signify that organic dies have only a very limited applicability to measure the acidity of the water pools of reverse micelles.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wurde die Gelbildung bei Reaktionen von Triolen mit Dicarbonsäuredichloriden für verschiedene Verdünnungsgrade untersucht. Die Reaktionen wurden zwischen Adipolydichlorid bzw. Sebacoyldichlorid und Triolen von verschiedenen Molekulargewichten durchgeführt. Die Reaktionspaare wurden so ausgewählt, daß die Reaktionssysteme durch eine Skala von v-Werten gekennzeichnet waren, wobei v gleich der Zahl der Bindungen in der kleinstmöglichen Ringstruktur ist. In allen Fällen fand die Gelbildung bei Reaktionsumsätzen statt, die höher waren als von der Theorie von Flory-Stockmayer vorausgesagt wird. Das Ausmaß dieser Erhöhung wurde größer bei Verdünnung, und kleiner bei größeren v-Werten.Die Resultate werden mit einer Kombination der Gelbildungstheorien von Frisch und Kilb interpretiert, in der λ, der intramolekulare Verzweigungsparameter von Frisch, gegeben ist durch die Gleichung λ = konst. v-3/2 {(OH)0+(COCl)0}-1.
    Notes: Gelation in reactions of triols with dicarboxylic acid dichlorides was studied at various dilutions. Adipoyl dichloride and sebacoyl dichloride were reacted with three triols of different molecular weights. The pairs of reactants were chosen so that the reaction systems were characterised by a range of values of v, the number of bonds in the smallest ring structure which could form. In all cases gelation occurred at extents of reaction in excess of those predicted by the Flory-Stockmayer theory. The excess reaction increased with dilution, and decreased with increase in v.The results are interpreted in terms of a combination of Frisch's and Kilb's theories of gelation, in which λ, the intramolecular branching parameter of Frisch, is given by the equation λ = const. v-3/2{(OH)0+(COCl)0}-1.

    Notes: The metabolic fate of drugs and other xenobiotics in mammalian organisms represents an area of intense contemporary interest. Traditionally, it is a difficult area of research becausethe biological systems which are used to study biotransformations are capable of yielding only minute quantities of metabolites. Recent developments in comparative biochemistry have made itpossible to link diverse metabolic systems through similarities in the pathways by which they alter foreign organic compounds. The potential thus exists for utilizing microbial metabolic systems to study and possibly predict the metabolic fate of a drug or other foreign compound in mammals. The ease with which microbial systems may be used to obtain large amounts of metabolites is an obvious Advantage.We havhe attemped to review the ways in which mammalian and microbialorganisms metabolize a variety of organic compounds. Attention has been focused on the similarities and differences in the mechanisms by which these living systems metabolize xenobiotics. Particular emphasis has been given to four types of reactions which are important in drug biotransformations: aromatic hydroxylationl; N- and O-dealkylations; and sulfur oxygenations.

    Notes: A framework is developed which provides predictions of multicomponent ion exchange equilibria from binary data.Experimental data are reported for the ion exchange equilibria of the binary systems SO42--Cl-, SO42--NO3-, and Cl--NO3- on a strong base anion exchange resin. These systems exhibit nonideal characteristics in both phases, and the experimental characterization has been based on the reaction equilibrium constants and correlations for the activity coefficients in both phases. The exchanger phase activity coefficients are obtained from the well known Wilson (1964) modelThe predictions of the ternary system SO42--NO3--Cl- based solely on the binary data are consistent with the experimental data for this system.

    Notes: The blood levels of bupivacaine administered epidurally during labour have been determined in mother, fetus and the newborn infant by quantitative single ion monitoring, following gas chromatographic separation. Concentrations were determined from the height of the peak obtained at m/e 140 derived from bupivacaine compared with that at m/e 154 derived from the internal standard, 1-n-pentyl-2-(2′,6′-xylylcarbamoyl)piperidine. Results from six mothers and their infants showed that the drug passed rapidly from the maternal circulation to the infant. The plasma half-life of the drug in the newborn infant was 18 h compared with 1.25 h for the adult.

    Notes: Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is used to determine the cure rate of an epoxy resin consisting of Tetraglycidyl-4,4′-diaminodiphenyl methane (TGDDM) and diaminodiphenylsulfone (DDS). Cure rates at 120 and 160°C are shown to increase noticeably when 1% BF3-MEA is added to either TGDDM to TGDDM plus DDS. Fluoroboric acid is shown to increase the cure rates even more than the BF3-MEA. These Results combined with the NMR results in the accompanying article indicate that BF3-MEA is not a catalyst for epoxy resin cure. Instead it is rapidly hydrolyzed to fluoroboric acid which acts as the catalyst.

    Notes: Fluorine-19 NMR is used to examine the role of boron trifluoride monoethylamine (BF3-MEA) in epoxy resin cure. Spectra were first recorded in a variety of solvents suitable for dissolving different epoxy resins. All spectra contained a peak due to fluoroboric acid. Spectra of BF3-MEA in orthodichlorobenzene were then recorded at elevated temperatures. The floroboric acid peak area increased, indicating that the BF3-MEA was being hydrolyzed. Results indicate that, at temperatures above 100°C, BF3-MEA is completely hydrolyzed within 5 min to fluoroboric acid.
