    Notes: Double-axis multiple-crystal X-ray topography, rocking-curve measurements and triple-axis reciprocal-space mapping have been combined to characterize protein crystals using a laboratory source. Crystals of lysozyme and lysozyme crystals doped with acetylated lysozyme impurities were examined. It was shown that the incorporation of acetylated lysozyme into crystals of lysozyme induces mosaic domains that are responsible for the broadening and/or splitting of rocking curves and diffraction-space maps along the direction normal to the reciprocal-lattice vector, while the overall elastic lattice strain of the impurity-doped crystals does not appear to be appreciable in high angular resolution reciprocal-space maps. Multiple-crystal monochromatic X-ray topography, which is highly sensitive to lattice distortions, was used to reveal the spatial distribution of mosaic domains in crystals which correlates with the diffraction features in reciprocal space. Discussions of the influence of acetylated lysozyme on crystal perfection are given in terms of our observations.

    Notes: We present a simple model of the signals transmitted by global positioning system (GPS) satellites and of the reception of these signals by a GPS receiver, neglecting atmospheric effects. The model idealizes the receiver and transmitter as electric dipole antennas. We derive the open-circuit voltage induced in the antenna of the receiver as a function of time, position, velocity, and orientation of the respective antenna. As an application of this model, we show that by using a single dipole antenna, a user of the GPS can compute his position, time, and two angles of attitude, by tracking the phases of the open-circuit antenna voltages for six GPS satellites.

    Notes: [Auszug] When the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans was first considered as a model for the study of ageing some 20 years ago, few foresaw how valuable it would prove to be. The past decade, in particular, has seen an explosion of work on the genetics of lifespan in this species. Building on pioneering ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Repression of gene transcription by nuclear receptors is mediated by interactions with co-repressor proteins such as SMRT and N-CoR, which in turn recruit histone deacetylases to the chromatin. Aberrant interactions between nuclear receptors and co-repressors contribute towards acute ...

    Notes: Measurements of equation of state (EOS) points on the principal Hugoniots of Cu, Au, Pb and the plastics Parylene-C and brominated CH at multimegabar pressures have been made using the 1 TW HELEN laser at AWE. The aim was 1% accuracy in shock velocity measurement (3%–4% in pressure) in order to compare with data from gas-gun and nuclear underground test experiments and the theoretical EOS's based on, or supported by, these data. Experiments comprised a hohlraum heated by two 500 J, 0.53 μm wavelength, 1 ns Gaussian laser pulses generating an x-ray flux which drove a shock into a target consisting of a base, with steps of a known EOS material and of the material of unknown EOS. Shock breakout from base and steps was detected by monitoring light emission from the target with optical streak cameras and shock velocities were derived from the transit times across the known-height steps. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A model of carrier phase measurement (as carried out by a satellite navigation receiver) is formulated based on electromagnetic theory. The model shows that the phase of the open-circuit voltage induced in the receiver antenna with respect to a local oscillator (in the receiver) depends on the relative orientation of the receiving and transmitting antennas. The model shows that using a single receiving antenna, and making carrier phase measurements to seven satellites, the three-axis attitude of a user platform (in addition to its position and time) can be computed relative to an initial point. This measurement model can also be used to create high-fidelity satellite signal simulators that take into account the effect of platform rotation as well as translation. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Consumption of ground beef has been implicated in the majority of outbreaks of disease from Escherichia coli O157:H7. There is a great need for rapid, sensitive, and specific microbial detection and isolation methods for the detection and recovery of pathogens such as E. coli O157:H7. Evanescent wave, fiber optic biosensors are an innovative, cutting-edge technology with the potential to meet such a need. Food pathogens such as E. coli O157:H7 can be detected in minutes using the biosensor assay rather than days using conventional methods. The biosensor assay is sensitive and presently has the ability to directly detect 102 CFU of E. coli O157:H7 in E. coli O157:H7-seeded PBS or ground beef. In this study, it was determined that once the pathogen had been positively identified, it could then be recovered by culturing the cells captured on the waveguide used in the biosensor assay. E. coli O157:H7-seeded PBS or ground beef samples were assayed using an evanescent wave, fiber optic biosensor. After a positive identification on the biosensor, the waveguide was added to modified LB medium supplemented with 10 μg/mL acriflavin (mLB) and incubated at 42C for a minimum of 4 h followed by selection on Rainbow O157 agar incubated 16 to 18 h at 37C. E. coli O157:H7 was confirmed using agglutination with E. coli O157:H7 antiserum. It was possible to recover E. coli O157:H7 colonies in E. coli O157:H7-seeded PBS or ground beef when 1 mL samples containing at least 2.0 × 103 CFU of E. coli O157:H7 had been injected into the biosensor. It took only 24 h to detect the target pathogen, recover the pathogen from the sample, and grow isolated colonies. This total time included sample preparation, detection, enrichment culture, and growth of cells to produce isolated colonies on a selective and differential medium. The identification of isolated colonies was then quickly confirmed using slide agglutination with the appropriate antiserum. This method significantly improved the speed of the confirmation of the presence of the pathogen and of the isolation of the pathogen, from 4 days using conventional methods to one day using the biosensor assay.

    Notes: It is widely believed that the initial degradation of proteins contained in grazed forage is mediated by rumen micro-organisms, but the authors’ recent work suggests that the plant cells themselves contribute to their own demise. In the present study the responses of Lolium perenne leaves to the rumen environment were investigated by using an in vitro system which simulates the main stresses of the rumen but from which rumen micro-organisms were excluded. Degradation of leaf protein and the accumulation of amino acids in tissue and bathing medium occurred over a time-scale that is relevant to rumen function, and in a near 1 : 1 ratio. Significant loss of nuclear material was observed after 6 h incubation and chloroplasts became morphologically more spherical as the incubation progressed. In situ localization suggested that ribulose 1,5 bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase was broken down within chloroplasts which from cytology were judged to be intact. We conclude from these data that plant metabolism may play a significant role in breaking down plant proteins within relatively intact organelles in the rumen. The determinations of chlorophyll content and cell viability revealed that the plant processes occurring in the simulated rumen were similar but not identical to those of natural senescence.

    Notes: : The fate of pesticides entering the Riparian Buffer Strips (RBS) has not been well documented. This study compared the transport and fate of atrazine in soil of three-, five-, and nine-year-old switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) RBS to that in adjacent soils cropped to a corn-soybean rotation or a grass-alfalfa pasture. Undisturbed soil columns were collected from the RBS and cropped areas within the Bear Creek watershed, near Roland, Iowa. Atrazine and bromide breakthrough curves obtained using intact soil columns under saturated conditions were described by a two-region, mobile-immobile transport model. Preferential flow of bromide and atrazine was evident in five-and nine-year-old RBS soil, but there was little difference in transport characteristics between these two RBS soils and the adjacent cropped soils. There was a trend towards an increase in dispersion coefficients between the five-and nine-year-old RBS sites, which suggests an increased degree of preferential flow with increasing RBS age. Despite similar texture and organic C contents, atrazine sorption was significantly greater in RBS soil than the adjacent cropped soil. Cropped soil degraded atrazine faster than the RBS soil. The rapid degradation of atrazine in the corn-soybean soil adjacent to the five-year-old RBS (atrazine half-life of 19 days) appeared to be due to a larger population of atrazine-degrading microorganisms. Atrazine-degrading microorganisms in the corn-soybean soil were 50,940 cells g-1 soil compared with 2,970 cells g-4 soil in 5-year-old RBS soil which resulted in 60 percent mineralization of [14C-UL-atrazine] in the corn-soybean soil.
