    Notes: Abstract  Roots of 40 taxa of higher plants (Pteridophyta, Spermatophyta) from two alpine study sites in Denali National Park and Preserve in central Alaska were examined for their mycorrhizal colonization. We observed ectomycorrhizae on six species: Betula nana, Salix reticulata, Salix polaris, Salix arctica, Polygonum viviparum, and Dryas octopetala. Seven taxa, Cassiope tetragona, Empetrum nigrum, Ledum palustre subsp. decumbens, Ledum palustre subsp. groenlandicum, Loiseleuria procumbens, Vaccinium uliginosum and Vaccinium vitis–idaea (all Ericales), had ericoid mycorrhizae. One species, Arctostaphylos alpina, formed a typical arbutoid mycorrhiza. Two species (Sibbaldia procumbens and Aconitum delphinifolium) showed well-developed VA mycorrhizae, whereas three species of plants (Lycopodium clavatum, Silene acaulis and Oxytropis scammaniana) had vesicles, but no arbuscules. The roots of 11 other plants (Lycopodium clavatum, Lycopodium selago, Silene acaulis, Gentiana algida, Lupinus arcticus, Oxytropis scammaniana, Pedicularis langsdorffii, Pedicularis capitata, Pedicularis verticillata, Artemisia sp. and Carex bigelowii) had a variety of intracellular colonizations which are referred to as dark septate fungi. No mycorrhizae were found on 12 other plants: Equisetum arvense, Equisetum variegatum, Lycopodium alpinum, Polygonum bistorta, Saxifraga hieracifolia, Saxifraga hirculus, Astragalus alpinus, Pedicularis kanei, Petasites frigidus, Carex podocarpa, Carex microchaeta and Poa arctica. A possible ecological role of dark septate fungi is discussed.

    The relationship between simple shear and pure shear for a simple fluid without coupling effects (1986)
    Springer
    Rheologica acta 25 (1986), S. 62-65 
    Details
    ISSN: 1435-1528
    Keywords: Simple fluid ; viscoelasticity ; extensional flow ; pure shear ; simple shear
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Physics
    Notes: Abstract Similarities between simple shear and pure shear or planar extension are exploited to derive equations relating stress in pure shear at constant extension rate to the stress in simple shear at constant shear rate. For the class of materials considered it follows that there are only two independent material functions required to describe simple shear. The relationships derived may also be used to estimate the ratio of first to second normal-stress differences in simple shear using experimental results from pure shear experiments.

    Springer
    Rheologica acta 25 (1986), S. 66-68 
    Details
    ISSN: 1435-1528
    Keywords: Constitutive relation ; viscoelasticity ; polymer ; network model ; shear

    The spike-strain test for polymeric liquids and its relevance for irreversible destruction of network connectivity by deformation (1979)

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Grundannahmen derLodgeschen Theorie der gummiartigen Flüssigkeit werden zusammengefaßt. Zwei weitere Annahmen sind notwendig, wenn man das Scher- und Dehnverhalten von Polymerschmelzen und konzentrierten Polymerlösungen bei finiten Deformationen beschreiben will: (1) die Annahme der Zerstörung des temporären Netzwerkes polymerer Flüssigkeiten mit zunehmender Deformation und (2) die Annahme, daß diese Zerstörung ein irreversibler Vorgang ist. Hier wird ein neuer Versuch, der sogenannte „Spike-Strain-Test“, vorgeschlagen. Damit ist es möglich, die Annahme einer irreversiblen Zerstörung des temporären Netzwerkes polymerer Flüssigkeiten mit zunehmender Deformation zu überprüfen. Die Bedeutung dieses Experimentes für eine größere Klasse von rheologischen Zustandsgleichungen wird diskutiert.
    Notes: Summary The basic assumptions ofLodge's rubberlike-liquid constitutive equation for polymer melts and concentrated solutions are summarized. By two additional assumptions — (i) the network disentanglement assumption and (ii) the irreversibility assumption — a modified rubberlike-liquid constitutive equation is obtained, which has been shown to be a valid description of material behaviour in shear and elongational flow. In this paper a novel test — the spikestrain test — is proposed. On the basis of this experiment the assumption of irreversible destruction of network connectivity by deformation can be examined. The significance of the spike-strain test for a larger class of constitutive equations is discussed.

    Co-segregation of elevated LDL with a novel mutation (D92K) of the LDL receptor in a kindred with multiple lipoprotein abnormalities (2000)

    Notes: Abstract Factors predisposing to the phenotypic features of familial combined hyperlipidemia have not been clearly defined. In the course of investigating familial coronary artery disease in Utah, we identified a three-generation family in which multiple members were affected with type IIa hyperlipoproteinemia (HLP IIa), type IIb hyperlipoproteinemia (HLP IIb), or type IV hyperlipoproteinemia (HLP IV). Because several family members had relatively severe low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol elevation, in order to dissect the possible contribution to the plasma lipoprotein abnormalities in this pedigree, we identified a novel point mutation in the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene, a G-to-A transition at nucleotide position 337 in exon 4. This change substituted lysine for glutamic acid at codon 92 (D92K) of the LDL receptor. By means of mutant allele-specific amplification we determined that the mutation co-segregated with elevated cholesterol and LDL cholesterol in the plasma of family members with HLP IIa and HLP IIb, but not with the elevated plasma triglycerides seen in HLP IIb and HLP IV patients. Thus, in families with apparent familial combined hyperlipidemia, a defective LDLR allele and other genetic or environmental factors that elevate plasma triglycerides may account for the multiple lipid phenotypes observed in this kindred.

    A novel LDLR mutation, H190Y, in a Utah kindred with familial Hypercholesterolemia (1999)
    Springer
    Journal of human genetics 44 (1999), S. 364-367

    Keywords: Key words Hyperlipoproteinemia ; Lipoproteins ; LDL receptor ; Familial hypercholesterolemia ; Genetic diagnosis

    Notes: Abstract Heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a serious disorder causing twice normal low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels early in childhood and very early coronary disease in both men and women. Treatment with multiple medications together with diet can normalize cholesterol levels in many persons with FH and prevent or delay the development of coronary atherosclerosis. Previously published blood cholesterol criteria greatly under-diagnosed new cases of FH among members of known families with FH and over-diagnosed FH among participants of general population screening. Thus, there is a need for accurate and genetically validated criteria for the early diagnosis of heterozygous FH. In the course of investigations of coronary artery disease in Utah, we identified a family whose proband showed elevated plasma levels of LDL cholesterol. To carry out molecular genetic diagnosis of the disease, we screened DNA samples for mutations in all 18 exons and the exon-intron boundaries of the LDL receptor gene (LDLR). Novel point mutations were identified in the proband: a C-to-T transversion at nucleotide position 631, causing substitution of tyrosine for histidine at codon 190 in exon 4 of the LDLR gene. The mutant allele-specific amplification method was used to examine 12 members of the family recruited for the diagnosis. This method helped to unequivocally diagnose 7 individuals as heterozygous for this particular LDLR mutation, while excluding the remaining 5 individuals from carrier status with FH.

    The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) radioactivity and cleanliness control programs (2020)
    Springer
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-11-01
    Description: LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a second-generation direct dark matter experiment with spin-independent WIMP-nucleon scattering sensitivity above $${1.4 imes 10^{-48}}, {hbox {cm}}^{2}$$ 1.4 × 10 - 48 cm 2 for a WIMP mass of $${40}, hbox {GeV}/{hbox {c}}^{2}$$ 40 GeV / c 2 and a $${1000}, hbox {days}$$ 1000 days exposure. LZ achieves this sensitivity through a combination of a large $${5.6}, hbox {t}$$ 5.6 t fiducial volume, active inner and outer veto systems, and radio-pure construction using materials with inherently low radioactivity content. The LZ collaboration performed an extensive radioassay campaign over a period of six years to inform material selection for construction and provide an input to the experimental background model against which any possible signal excess may be evaluated. The campaign and its results are described in this paper. We present assays of dust and radon daughters depositing on the surface of components as well as cleanliness controls necessary to maintain background expectations through detector construction and assembly. Finally, examples from the campaign to highlight fixed contaminant radioassays for the LZ photomultiplier tubes, quality control and quality assurance procedures through fabrication, radon emanation measurements of major sub-systems, and bespoke detector systems to assay scintillator are presented.
