    Notes: A statistical study of the dependence between various critical fusion temperatures of a certain kind of coal and its chemical components is carried out. As well as using classical dependence techniques (multiple, stepwise and PLS regression, principal components, canonical correlation, etc.) together with the corresponding inference on the parameters of interest, non-parametric regression and bootstrap inference are also performed.

    Notes: A semiempirical model, based on the presence of an inhibitory intermediate metabolite excreted to the broth, was developed to better predict the dynamic responses to shock loadings of Pseudomonas putida Q5 degrading phenol. Compared to the Haldane equation, the new model exhibited better prediction capabilities for a broad range of inlet concentration and dilution rate step changes. The experiments were performed at 10° and 25°C and ranged from stable responses to washouts. The time delays observed experimentally were successfully predicted with the dual-inhibition model and a very good agreement with the observed phenol profile also was found in a pulse experiment. A possible intermediate metabolite was detected by HPLC analyses based on the high correlation shown with the predicted inhibitory intermediate metabolite in the model. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: This work reports on the photodegradation of low-density polyethylene films formulated with titanium (IV) oxide actylacetonate (TAc) and titanium dioxide pigment in different proportions; no previous reports on the photoactivity of this acetylacotonate have been found. Samples of blow-extruded films were submitted to accelerated UV aging with fluorescent lamps and the polymer degradation measured. The changes in carbonyl groups, molecular weight, and film elongation at break are discussed. The results show that TAc can promote photooxidation and accelerate the film degradation. The retention percent of elongation at break (EB) is apparently proportional to the carbonyl index irrespective of the formulation but has different relations with molecular weight (Mn), time, or the number of chain scissions (n), probably as a result of microstructural differences. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A new proton-conducting polymer electrolyte - poly-(benzylsulfonic acid)siloxane (PBSS) - has been prepared by sol-gel process. Both the hydrolysis and the condensation reactions of triethoxybenzylsilane have been studied under different catalysis conditions. The basic material - polybenzylsiloxane (PBS) - is always soluble, no matter what the experimental conditions, reaching an average molecular weight - Mw - of 20,000 and a polydispersity index close to 5. Good yields of a water-soluble polyelectrolyte - PBSS-thermally stable up to 300°C in air according to thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and for which the exchange capacity is close to 4.4, can be obtained by sulfonation of PBS. Conductivities ranging from 2 × 10-3 to 10-2 S/cm at room temperature have been determined by a.c. impedance spectroscopy. These high conductivities, as well as the tensile strength of the PBSS, allow its use in several electrochemical devices.

    Notes: The accelerated UV photodegradation process of low-density polyethylene films, formulated with two photostabilizers and two antioxidants, was studied to evaluate the effect of different combinations of UV stabilizers and antioxidants on the overall photodegradation process. An experimental design, consisting of 33 formulations with different additive ratios and a blank, was used to evaluate the performance of the four mixed additives. From each formulation, 200 micron-thick films were produced by the extrusion-blowing process. Samples from these films were submitted to accelerated UV aging, and the polymer degradation was measured by carbonyl group evolution, molecular weight distribution changes, and maximum elongation loss. The effect of the additive combination on the different degradation reactions is discussed qualitatively by using “relative variables” and a triangular diagram. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The hardening process of natural (Hevea brasiliensis) rubber, that takes place when this rubber is stored in dry conditions over long periods of time, has been correlated with the presence of reactive “abnormal” groups directly grafted on the polymeric chain and in the serum of the latex. In the present work, natural Hevea (HR) and Guayule (Parthenium argentatum) rubber (GR) were stored under accelerated conditions and the changes in Mooney viscosity and molecular weight measured. The results showed that while HR undergoes hardening, GR keeps its Mooney viscosity constant, as does a constant viscosity (CV) Hevea rubber. These results are explained by the absence of functional “abnormal” groups that sustain the hardening reactions.

    Notes: The uptake and activation of FXII from blood plasma was studied in small-diameter polyethylene tubing, surface-modified by end-point immobilization of heparin. Two preparations of heparin were used to modify the contact-activating properties of the plastic tubing: unfractionated, functionally active heparin and low-affinity heparin, lacking the specific antithrombin-binding sequence and virtually devoid of anticoagulant activity. The uptakes of FXII on the two heparin surfaces were similar. No activated FXII could be demonstrated on the unfractionated heparin surface, whereas on the low-affinity heparin surface nearly all FXII underwent spontaneous activation. The suppression of FXII activation on the unfractionated heparin surface was investigated by using plasma depleted of antithrombin, complement C1 esterase inhibitor, or both. The removal of antithrombin resulted in extensive activation of FXII, whereas the depletion of C1 esterase inhibitor had only a minor effect. Experiments with recalcified plasma showed rapid clot formation during exposure to the low-affinity heparin surface. After depletion of antithrombin, but not complement C1 esterase inhibitor, the recalcified plasma clotted in contact with the unfractionated heparin surface as well. We conclude that antithrombin and the antithrombin-binding sequence in the surface-immobilized heparin are essential for the prevention of surface activation of FXII and triggering of the intrinsic coagulation system. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: End-point immobilization of heparin to artificial materials gives rise to a surface that prevents triggering of the plasma contact activation system and, presumably as a result thereof, generally has thrombo-resistant properties. The present investigation was undertaken to determine what density of immobilized heparin molecules expressing functionally intact antithrombin binding sites is required to achieve these blood compatible properties. Six different heparin surfaces were prepared on polyethylene tubing and studied in contact with human plasma. The content of bound heparin was the same on all surfaces while the densities of antithrombin binding sites ranged from 1 to 28 pmol/cm2. The surfaces expressing 4 pmol/cm2 or more of specific anti-thrombin binding sites generated no measurable enzymatic activity in contact with plasma, either on the exposed surfaces or in the plasma phases. Below this level, the degree of activation gradually increased with decreasing densities, and in parallel the thrombo-resistant properties deteriorated. Addition of heparin to the plasma phase reduced the capacity of the heparin surfaces to bind antithrombin, leading to a diminished ability of the surfaces to prevent contact activation. This finding supports the hypothesis that antithrombin is the critical coagulation inhibitor for the suppression of contact activation on end-point immobilized heparin. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Two-dimensional (2-D) electrophoresis is the preferred method for separating the glycoforms of proteins. The isoforms usually present as ‘trains’ of spots in the first dimension and may also differ in molecular weight. The primary goal for analyzing the carbohydrate content of glycoprotein spots is to understand the ‘rules’ which govern the migration of glycoproteins in 2-D electrophoresis. These rules can then be used to produce predictive vectors to interpret changes in glycosylation patterns. Techniques for the analysis of oligosaccharides released from glycoproteins which have been electroblotted to PVDF membrane after one-dimensional (1-D) and 2-D preparative gel electrophoresis are described. The oligosaccharides are removed enzymatically (PNGase F of N-linked oligosaccharides) or chemically (β-elimination of O-linked oligosaccharides) and separated by high performance anion exchange chromatography (HPAEC-PAD) and identified by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) or analyzed directly by ESI-MS. After enzymic removal of the N-linked oligosaccharides the protein spots can be further analyzed by Edman sequence tagging for identification and quantitation of the protein and by acid hydrolysis for monosaccharide analysis of the O-linked oligosaccharides. These approaches have been proved on 1-D PAGE electroblotted bovine fetuin and human glycophorin A and then used to analyze two abundant proteins which separate as glycoforms on 2-D PAGE preparative narrow range (pH 4.5-5.5) blots of human plasma: α2-HS glycoprotein (human fetuin) and α1-antitrypsin (α1-protease inhibitor). It is apparent that both the macroheterogeneity (site occupation) and microheterogeneity (diversity of structures) of the glycosylation contribute to the separation of protein isoforms in 2-D PAGE.
