    Notes: Abstract Scheelite- and molybdenite-bearing scapolite skarn and plagioclase skarn occur as stratabound mineralizations in a terrain which has suffered regional metamorphism. Scapolite skarn formed as replacement skarns in plagioclase-bearing hornblendic gneiss whereas plagioclase skarn precipitated in fractures as vein skarn mineralizations. The genesis of these skarn deposits are closely connected to an episode of boudinage on the limbs of a large-scale dome-shaped fold. Fluid inclusion studies revealed that the ore-forming fluids were composed of CO2 with 2 to 17 mole% CH4, which formed due to decarbonation reactions during peak metamorphism at the end of the Caledonian orogenesis. Thermodynamic considerations indicate that scapolite and plagioclase formed above 550 °C and 2 Kbar pressure and were followed by precipitation of scheelite between 400 and 570 °C.

    Notes: Abstract  A methodology was developed to evaluate and map the contamination potential or aquifer sensitivity of the upper groundwater flow system of a portion of the General Separations Area (GSA) at the Department of Energy's Savannah River Site (SRS) in South Carolina. A Geographic Information System (GIS) was used to integrate diverse subsurface geologic data, soils data, and hydrology utilizing a stack-unit mapping approach to construct mapping layers. This is the first time that such an approach has been used to delineate the hydrogeology of a coastal plain environment. Unit surface elevation maps were constructed for the tops of six Tertiary units derived from over 200 boring logs. Thickness or isopach maps were created for five hydrogeologic units by differencing top and basal surface elevations. The geologic stack-unit map was created by stacking the five isopach maps and adding codes for each stack-unit polygon. Stacked-units were rated according to their hydrogeologic properties and ranked using a logarithmic approach (utility theory) to establish a contamination potential index. Colors were assigned to help display relative importance of stacked-units in preventing or promoting transport of contaminants. The sensitivity assessment included the effects of surface soils on contaminants which are particularly important for evaluating potential effects from surface spills. Hydrogeologic/hydrologic factors did not exhibit sufficient spatial variation to warrant incorporation into contamination potential assessment. Development of this contamination potential mapping system provides a useful tool for site planners, environmental scientists, and regulatory agencies.

    Notes: Abstract A 480-square-mile region within Will County, in northeastern Illinois, was used as a test region for the development of a methodology to map the sensitivity of aquifers to contamination. An aquifer sensitivity model was developed using a geographic information system (GIS) to overlay and combine several data layers. The components used for our model are: (1) depth to sand and gravel or bedrock, (2) thickness of the uppermost sand and gravel aquifer, (3) glacial drift thickness, and (4) bedrock geology. The model is an improvement over many previous aquifer sensitivity models because it combines specific information on depth to the uppermost aquifer with information on the thickness of the uppermost sand and gravel aquifer. This county-wide model results in an aquifer sensitivity map that can be a useful tool for making land-use planning decisions regarding aquifer protection and management of groundwater resources.

    Notes: Abstract The large lead-zinc deposits of Middle Proterozoic age in northern Australia occur in sediments interpreted as having been deposited under saline, shallow-emergent conditions. Significant alkaline diagenesis is evident from the presence of abundant K-feldspar and locally albite. Alkali element compositions clearly distinguish the sediments of the mineralised shallow-emergent locations both from those of more permanent water cover (lacustrine or lagoonal), and from those close to basin margins. The key variables for identifying the geochemical contrasts are the levels of K, Rb and Na, and the ratios of K : Al and K : Rb. These geochemical parameters can be used in conjunction with the levels of the target and indicator elements to detect whether mineralisation may be present in a favourable geological environment. Two case studies of the application of whole rock geochemistry in base metal exploration are given for the Glyde River Sub-basin (McArthur Basin) and the Western Succession, Mt Isa Block.

    Notes: Abstract  MHC class II deficiency patients are mutated for transcription factors that regulate the expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II genes. Four complementation groups (A–D) are defined and the gene defective in group A has been shown to encode the MHC class II transactivator (CIITA). Here, we report the molecular characterization of a new MHC class II deficiency patient, ATU. Cell fusion experiments indicated that ATU belongs to complementation group A. Subsequent mutation analysis revealed that the CIITA mRNA lacked 84 nucleotides. This deletion was the result of the absence of a splice donor site in the CIITA gene of ATU. As a result of this novel homozygous genomic deletion, ATU CIITA failed to transactivate MHC class II genes. Furthermore, this truncated CIITA of ATU did not display a dominant negative effect on CIITA-mediated transactivation of various isotypic MHC class II promoters.

    Notes: Abstract  Patients suffering from major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II deficiency, a rare primary immunodeficiency, are characterized by a lack of MHC class II expression which is the result of defects in trans-acting factors. At least four complementation groups, A, B, C, and D, can be discerned. The gene affected in group C patients is known to be RFX5 and encodes one of the subunits of the multimeric phosphoprotein complex, RFX. In the present study we fused fibroblasts of a recently identified MHC class II deficiency patient, OSE, with fibroblasts derived from patients representative of each of the four complementation groups. Transient heterokaryon analysis indicated that OSE belonged to complementation group C. Furthermore, transfection of wild-type RFX5 cDNA into OSE fibroblasts resulted in restoration of the defect. Mutation analysis revealed that the RFX5 mRNA lacked four nucleotides and that this deletion was the consequence of a G to A transition in a splice acceptor site. Genomic oligotyping demonstrated that OSE was homozygous for the splice site mutation.

    Notes: Summary Rare earth metal cations are antibacterially synergistic with anionic surfactants, yielding mixtures that have bactericidal activity against a variety of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria at minimum concentrations ranging from 16 to 125 μg/ml. Uptake of surfactant byEscherichia coli increases in the presence of lanthanum, suggesting that the role of rare earth metal cations is to reduce the net negative surface charge on the bacteria, thereby increasing the affinity between the negatively charged surfactant and the bacterial surface.

    Notes: Abstract Of the former extensive peat bog in West Friesland, only small, buried and often cutover remains are left, scattered over a wide region. The results of pollen and macrofossil analyses of the most complete peat profile found to date in this district is presented in this paper. The vegetation development during the final stage of marine sedimentation in the vicinity of the analysed profile is reconstructed in some detail, as well as the subsequent formation of the lower layers of the mire, including the ombrotrophic peat. Apart from these aspects, the study also contributes to our knowledge of the Holocene palaeogeography of the coastal region of the Netherlands.

    Notes: Summary The binding of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) to various matrix bound long-chain hydrocarbon structures has been studied. It was found that HBsAg was strongly bound to straight hydrocarbon chains with more than seven carbon atoms. The adsorbents can probably be used for removal and /or detection of hepatitis B infectious material.
