    Notes: Abstract The elemental composition and spectroscopic properties of dissolved fulvic acids isolated from different sampling media (topsoil, ground and surface water) of a natural fen area (high portion of organic soils) were examined to reveal the effects of land use history. These effects need to be known if dissolved humic substances are to be a major factor in identifying the impact of present and future changes in land use. Dissolved fulvic acids (topsoil, groundwater) from highly degraded peatlands (due to a long-term agricultural use) exhibit lower C/N ratios, higher absorption in the UV spectra, and higher absorption at 1,620 cm−1 in the FTIR spectra compared with fulvic acids from relatively intact peatlands. These properties illustrate that long-term agricultural use with high inputs results in increased aromatic structures and a further humification of dissolved fulvic acids due to very strong peat decomposition compared with relatively intact peatlands. Synchronous fluorescence spectra also indicate the higher level of aromatic structures within fulvic acids isolated from sites with long-term agricultural use (high peat decomposition) compared with a land use history resulting in a lower peat decomposition. The different sources of fulvic acids in surface water (precipitation, runoff, interflow, groundwater) are the main reason for these effects not being detected in fulvic acids isolated from surface water. Short-term changes in land use characterized by a transition from crop farming to an unimproved grassland were found not to affect the spectroscopic properties of dissolved fulvic acids. A humification index deduced from the synchronous fluorescence spectra is proposed. We have strong evidence that dissolved humic substances indicate changes in the environmental conditions (both anthropogenic and natural) of wetlands with a high proportion of organic soils.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Abstract Neutral complex-type N-glycans of the envelope glycoprotein 120 of HIV-2, propagated in different host cells, display cell-type specific variations. In order to identify typical structural elements, glycans were analysed by gel filtration, by enzymic sequencing and, in part, by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The characteristic substituents of di- tri- and tetraantennary carbohydrate units thus observed include N-acetyllactosamine repeats, bisecting N-acetylglucosamine and fucose linked to the chitobiose core as well as to N-acetyllactosamine antennae. Each glycoprotein preparation displayed a characteristic set of glycoforms.

    Keywords: Key words:Sychronization – Multimedia streams – Video server
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Computer Science
    Notes: Abstract. Multimedia streams such as audio and video impose tight temporal constraints for their presentation. Often, related multimedia streams, such as audio and video, must be presented in a synchronized way. We introduce a novel scheme to ensure the continuous and synchronous delivery of distributed stored multimedia streams across a communications network. We propose a new protocol for synchronized playback and compute the buffer required to achieve both, the continuity within a single substream and the synchronization between related substreams. The scheme is very general and does not require synchronized clocks. Using a resynchronization protocol based on buffer level control, the scheme is able to cope with server drop-outs and clock drift. The synchronization scheme has been implemented and the paper concludes with our experimental results.

    Keywords: VEGF ; hypertrophy ; spontaneously hypertensive rat ; coronary flow
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is often associated with an impaired maximal coronary blood flow and increases the vulnerability of the heart tissue to ischaemia. In this study, the correlation between coronary blood flow and expression of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mRNA was investigated. Using both haemodynamic measurements and analysis of mRNA, we have demonstrated that during development of LVH, in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), an impaired maximal coronary flow at 12 weeks of age is associated with low levels of VEGF mRNA. However, in older SHR (32 weeks) with stabilised hypertrophy and a normal maximal coronary flow response, VEGF mRNA levels are increased three-fold. These results suggest that the mechanism for the impaired flow, observed in some types of cardiac hypertrophy, might involve an inadequate growth of the coronary vessels due to insufficient activation of the VEGF gene.

    Notes: Abstract Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) was applied for recognizing the origin of groundwater humic and fulvic acids. GPC was performed with Fraktogel TSK HW-50 in 0.1 M NaCl, pH 8.5 (0.05 M phosphate buffer), 1 mM EDTA, with 10% by volume methanol added. Humic substances from groundwaters and sediments of four different aquifer systems in Germany were isolated, purified and characterized. Both UV/Vis and fluorescence detection were applied. UV/Vis detection was found to be more powerful in identifying differences between the various humic and fulvic acids. The four aquifer systems investigated (“Gorleben”, “Fuhrberg”, “Franconian Albvorland” and “Munich”) differed from one another with respect to hydrological and geochemical conditions. The results showed that the GPC-elution behavior reflects the geochemical environment and origin (source material and generation process) of aquatic humic and fulvic acids.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Abstract Purpose. To reduce the systemic toxicity and prolong the systemic presence of l-(2-chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexyl-l-nitrosourea (CCNU), a lipid-based drug carrier was designed and characterized. Methods. The degree of CCNU association with lipid vesicles composed of 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn- glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC) and l,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoglycerol (DMPG) (1:1, m/m) was characterized and the drug decomposition rates of lipid-drug complexes were monitored. Effects of lipid association on drug potency against medulloblastoma cells and total systemic drug exposure in rats were determined. Results. At a CCNU:lipid molar ratio greater than 1:5, more than 90% of the drug was associated with the lipid vesicles. In aqueous suspensions, lipid association significantly reduced the first-order drug decomposition rate. In addition, lipid-associated CCNU exhibited a 4-fold increase in drug sensitivity with medulloblastoma cells. IC50 values for CCNU admixed and encapsulated with lipid vesicles were 18 ± 4.9 and 14.0 ± 2.2 μM, respectively, compared to 83 ± 11.0 μM for free CCNU. When administered to rats, lipid-associated CCNU increased the AUC (area under the concentration-time curve) of CCNU by approximately 2-fold (20.46 ± 2.15 compared to 39.59 ±1.87 μg⋅min/ml), and the terminal half-life (t1/2β) by almost 9-fold (17 ± 9 compared to 147 ± 48 min) over free CCNU. Despite the increase in total systemic drug exposure, rats treated with lipid-associated CCNU exhibited a significantly lower frequency of acute neurotoxicity. Conclusions. These data indicate that CCNU associated with lipid vesicles may increase drug stability, potency, and systemic exposure in rats.

    Notes: Abstract We present a direct approach for the calculation of functional determinants of the Laplace operator on balls. Dirichlet and Robin boundary conditions are considered. Using this approach, formulas for any value of the dimension,D, of the ball, can be obtained quite easily. Explicit results are presented here for dimensionsD=2,3,4,5 and 6.
