    Collagen synthesis in human fibroblasts: Effects of ascorbic acid and regulation by hydrocortisone (1981)
    New York, NY [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: The effects of hydrocortisone and ascorbic acid on collagen and noncollagen protein synthesis, and on growth were examined in fibroblasts derived from normal human dermis. When the medium was supplemented with 0.28 mM ascorbic acid, the apparent rate of collagen production increased 2--3 fold over the culture cycle. Ascorbic acid also caused a small increase in the apparent rate of synthesis of noncollagen protein and an elevation in growth rate and maximum cell density. Growth was not required for the increase in collagen production since addition of ascorbate to confluent cultures induced a similar increase. Hydrocortisone (1.5 μM) blocked the ascorbate-related increase in collagen production during growth and in confluent cultures. The hormone simultaneously increased the apparent rate of noncollagen protein production and maximum cell density, suggesting that the effect on collagen synthesis was specific. Inhibition of collagen production by hydrocortisone was observed only in the presence of ascorbate, while the increase in growth and noncollagen protein production occurred in the presence and absence of the vitamin.

    Notes: Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) has been used to evaluate the size and concentration of voids in poly(N,N′-bis-(phenoxyphenyl)pyromellitimide), PMDA-ODA. Analysis of the angular dependence of the scattering indicates the presence of voids ranging from 50 to 150 Å in radius. Integrated SAXS demonstrated that the volume fraction of voids was 7 × 10-4. These results were supported by measurements of the attenuation factor as a function of the sample thickness.

    The flow of thermoplastic melts: Experimental and predicted (1984)

    Notes: The flow of polypropylene, nylon 6,6, and 33-percent glass-fiber-filled nylon 6,6 into a tensile bar mold was investigated. Pressures needed to fill the cavity and runner system were measured as a function of fill time and melt temperature. The experimental results were compared to pressures predicted using the Moldflow flow-analysis programs. Correlation between experimental and predicted pressures was good provided that accurate input data to the computer programs were used. The choice of runner diameter in the approximation of the irregular shaped runner of this tensile bar mold was found to be important, since the runner length was approximately 40 percent of the total flow length. Material properties of particular importance were thermal conductivity, viscosity, and no-flow temperature (the temperature at which the resin will no longer flow). Viscosity/shear rate/temperature data are needed for the computer programs and two methods of obtaining the data were examined: an Instron capillary rheometer and a capillary nozzle on an injection-molding machine. Good agreement between the two methods was found for polypropylene over a shear rate range of 100 to 10,000 s-1. Only the injection-molding capillary nozzle could be used for the nylon- and glass-filled nylon due to the thermal degradation that occurred in the Instron rheometer.

    Descriptive and functional anatomy of the digital vascular system of the tokay, Gekko gecko (1981)
    New York, NY : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: The vascular system of the digits of the tokay is more complex than has hitherto been suspected and has a configuration which suggests it is intimately involved in the process of adhesion. Distinction can be made between lamellae (expanded scales beneath the proximal portion of the digit) and scansors (elaborations of lamellae that contain a large amount of subdermal material and therefore do not technically qualify as scales). Such a distinction is made on anatomical grounds and can be appreciated only if anatomical investigation is carried out. There are no externally obvious features by which lamellae and scansors can be distinguished, except position. Scansors are found beneath hyperextensible phalanges, whereas lamellae are located more proximally and are not subjected to digital hyperextension during locomotion. Whether this distinction can be applied to other pad-bearing geckos and to anoline lizards remains to be seen.The large sinus beneath the penultimate phalanx appears to govern the pressure within the system; the reticular blood systems of the scansors appear to manifest the pressure changes with respect to the locomotor substratum. Changes in pressure within the system probably permit the overlapping scansors to comply precisely with each other and with the substratum. The presence of a system based on fluid pressure differentials means that scansors are deformable along multiple axes at any one time, thus permitting a high degree of compliance with their entire surroundings. It is probable that changes in pressure within the system promote release from the substratum as well as compliance with and attachment to it. The mechanism of control of the system awaits further investigation.The pattern of the digital vascular complex has been considered in relation to the mode of operation of the digits during locomotion. Distal drainage of the sinus is ideally suited to the activity of hyperextension of the digits. This combination permits sequential pressurizing and depressurizing of the scansors and allows the bond to be created or broken in a gradual fashion rather than in an all-or-none manner. By avoiding sudden shifts in the pattern of dynamic loading (the bond is not broken instantaneously but sequentially), the risk of transverse instability during locomotion is lessened. The increase of loading on the other feet is thus gradual. The importance of this is discussed more fully elsewhere in a consideration of the structure and function of scansors. That the digits of the tokay are hyperextended during horizontal as well as vertical locomotion (Russell, '75, p. 463) can now be rationalized not only from the point of view of protection of the setae but also because of the manner in which the vascular system of the digits functions and is drained.

    Notes: A branched pore kinetic model for aqueous phase activated carbon adsorption is presented in which the carbon particle is separated into rapidly and slowly diffusing regions. The model was developed to overcome problems arising from a single rate parameter analysis and is shown to describe experimental data well. In addition to very different rates of transport in the two regions, parameters estimated by regression analysis indicated differences in the adsorptive characteristics.

    Notes: Vacuum sublimation of cadmium sulfide for manufacture of thin film solar cells was analyzed. The sublimation unit consisted of a two chamber cylindrical source bottle having a rate control orifice and exit nozzle. Coupled heat and mass balance equations were solved using appropriate rate equations for flow in the free molecular-to-viscous transition regime. The model equations predicted that heat transfer has a significant effect on sublimation rate. Experiments were carried out over a range of temperatures with several rate control orifices and exit nozzles. Quantitative agreement between measured rates and those calculated from the model equations was obtained.

    Notes: An apparatus is described which permitted a perfusant (lactated Ringer's solution) to be passed through a porous sample in a pulsatile manner with a square wave pressure profile. The “on” time, “off” time, number of cycles and pressure amplitude were separately controllable. Using this apparatus and immersing the sample in stirred, heparinized, human blood, there was a certain “off” time below which platelet adhesion to the sample abruptly ceased. The values of this “off” time, termed the activation time ta for platelet adhesion were ∼0.5 sec for 0.2 μm pore size cellulose diacetate/nitrate (millipore filter) and ˜0.3 sec for 0.2 μm polycarbonate (nuclepore filter). After a single cycle with a 5 sec “off” time, adhered platelets on both these materials showed pseudopodia, varying degrees of spreading and membrane perforation.

    Notes: To prevent the premature occlusion of vascular prostheses, endothelium is being cultured experimentally onto synthetic flow surfaces. A rapid method of identifying cultured endothelium on the prosthesis is valuable for determining the degree of fibroblast and smooth muscle cell contamination and to screen for endothelial cell transformation. Fluorescent Factor VIII related antigen (FVIII-RA) staining has been used to identify cultured endothelium, but results in excessive staining of the underlying prosthesis, loss of morphologic detail, and deterioration of the FVIII-RA antibody reaction with time. We have applied the peroxidase antiperoxidase (PAP) method of antigen staining to permit staining of FVIII-RA and thereby to permit a sensitive and specific identification of human or canine endothelium with a concurrent analysis of morphologic detail.
