    Notes: Abstract The alvinocaridid shrimp Rimicaris exoculata is an abundant component of the biota of Mid-Atlantic Ridge hydrothermal vents. To determine the nutritional strategy of this organism, we analysed the molecular abundance and carbon isotopic composition of its phospholipid fatty acids. High abundances of n-7 fatty acids (〉40% total fatty acids) were observed in R. exoculata muscle tissues, in bacterial epibionts scraped from its gill bailers, and from the bacterially infested metal sulphides that the shrimp ingest. The phospholipid fatty acid abundance data indicates that the bacteria in the sulphides are closely related to the bacterial epibiota inhabiting the shrimp gill bailers, carapace and other body parts. Compound specific δ13C analyses of the phospholipid fatty acids gave average values of −12‰ for the epibiont bacteria and −21‰ for the sulphide bacteria. This difference may be largely due to the expression of different forms of RuBisCO (Forms I and II) which fractionate against 13C to different extents. Carbon limitation within the shrimp epibiont population may be an additional factor. The δ13C values (mean = −13‰) of the saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids isolated from the muscle tissues of R. exoculata were very close to those of the epibionts, indicating that the predominant source of dietary carbon for the shrimp is their epibionts, with a lesser contribution from free-living bacteria. The δ13C values (−26‰) of shrimp cholesterol were much more negative than those of the fatty acids, and this cholesterol is likely to have derived from the oceanic photic zone.

    Notes: Summary Inversion recovery cross polarization (IRCP) NMR was used to study the solid state morphologies of plasticized and neat poly(vinyl butyral-co-vinyl alcohol) (PVB), of polyether polyurethane elastomers (PU), and of low density polyethylene (LDPE). IRCP decay data for these polymers were best fit to a biexponential two-component model modulated by T1ϱH relaxation. These results clearly display the two-phase nature of these polymers, as well as the potential applicability of the IRCP technique.

    Notes: Abstract In order to achieve sustainability in managed ecosystems we must understand management impacts on soil processes and clarify the regulatory role of the microbial community on these processes. Crop rotation and organic management practices are thought to have positive impacts on the microbial biomass; however, the specific impacts of crop rotation organic management on soil microbial ecology are largely unknown. The effect of organic management on soil microbial ecology was investigated using soils collected from the Rodale Institute Research Center's long-term Farming Systems Trial (FST) experiment. The FST, begun in 1981, included a manured and a cover cropped organic rotation and a conventionally managed grain based rotation. Soil respiration rates and13C-isotope fate in a companion study suggest that the biomass characteristics of the FST treatment soils were different in November 1991. However, direct measurement of the microbial community at this time using Phospholipid Fatty Acid Analysis (PLFA) did not identify statistically significant treatment based differences in soil biomass characteristics. Variability among the PLFA profiles of treatment replicates was as great as variability between farming systems. Treatment based trends were observed among selected PLFAs, particularly those present in large amounts, that were consistent with indirect biomass and biomass-dependent measures. Overall, PLFA profiles, soil respiration rates and13C-cycling suggested that the organic cover cropped soil had the Largest and most heterogeneous microbial population while the biomass of the organic-manure amended soil was the least heterogeneous, and the most metabolically active.

    Notes: A correlation has been established between the dynamic storage modulus (E') and the mean cross polarization time constants 〈TCH〉 for a set of five morphologically diverse polymers, including one at two temperatures and one at two plasticizer concentrations. The correlation is only possible when the TCH values for all of the motional environments within the polymers are considered. An inversion recovery cross polarization (IRCP) NMR technique is used to obtain motional and morphological information from the main chain carbons of each polymer. After comparing simplified correlation functions for the two parameters, an experimental relationship between them is established that suggests that TCH and E' are both modulated by a similar distribution of molecular motions.

    Notes: Samples of plasticized poly(vinyl butyral-co-vinyl alcohol) (PVB) are found to exhibit multiple thermal transitions as observed by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Arrhenius plots using DSC and DMA data suggest that two of the transitions are glass-type ones. Variable temperature solid-state 13C-NMR experiments show a temperature-dependent line-broadening pattern for all PVB backbone carbons with maximum broadening at 55°C or at about 50°C above the second-order-type transitions α1 and α2 as measured by DSC. Using Arrhenius plots, the NMR transition is found to best correlate with α1, which is consistent with glass transition behavior. The solid-state NMR spectra also show that vinyl alcohol tacticity remains unresolved up to a temperature of about 95°C, beyond which line narrowing begins to occur. High-temperature thermal transitions are also observed by DSC and DMA, which suggest that the onset of motion involving vinyl alcohol sequences may be responsible for these transitions.

    Notes: The sedimentation behavior of alumina powder has been studied in the presence of poly-vinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and poly(vinylpyrrolidone-co-vinyl acetate) (PVP/VA) in both thermodynamically “good” and “poor” solvents for the PVP homopolymer. PVP/VA provides higher sediment densities than does its PVP homopolymer counterpart. Solutionstate 13C-T1 spin-lattice relaxation measurements were made on analogous mixtures both with and without alumina powder. The NMR results suggest that the PVP/VA copolymer is anchored to the alumina powder surface by means of VA moieties, whereas the PVP moieties extend into the continuous phase of the slurry medium. Thus, the higher settling densities that are observed in the presence of PVP/VA can be attributed to a steric stabilization mechanism. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A relationship between dynamic storage modulus (E′) and the mean cross-polarization time constants 〈TCH〉 for 16 polymer data sets has been established by using a standard linear solid model. This model is used in an attempt to equate the process of cross-polarization with mechanical rigidity by virtue of the implicit dependence of each phenomenon on molecular motion. The apparent validity of the relationship between these parameters indicates that cross-polarization in polymers can be a function of molecular motion in addition to microscopic spin dynamics. The limitations as well as practical applications of this relationship are discussed. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
