    Notes: Abstract The supersession of the process of urbanization by what has been termed “polarization reversal” and “counterurbanization” in advanced developing and developed countries has become a much debated issue over the past 15 years. Disaggregated migration studies indicate that in addition to mainstream population migration patterns, undercurrent migration patterns may be evident which could differ quite substantially from the former. Such divergent migratory patterns occurring at the same time in the same country are called “differential urbanization”. As a potentially important urban development policy consideration, attention is focused in this paper on differential urbanization trends in South Africa at the metropolitan level. Recent informal urban settlement patterns of the African population within the major metropolitan areas are contrasted against these differential urbanization trends to determine the implications of both for residential development in the metropolitan areas during the post-apartheid era.

    Notes: Abstract A latticeL is called congruence normal if it can be generated by doubling of convex sets starting with the one-element lattice. In the special case of intervals, the lattice is called bounded. It has been proven thatL is bounded if and only ifL is congruence normal and semidistributive. In this paper we study the connection between certain classes of convex sets and generalized semidistributive laws. These so-called doubling classes are pseudovarieties which can be described by implications as well as by forbiden substructures. In the end, we examine the structure of the lattice of all doubling classes.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The influence of several factors on breeding success, nesting behaviour, density and selection of nesting sites was investigated on a study plot of 128 km2 in northeastern Bavaria (Bayreuth, Oberfranken). The position to human settlement is the most important factor: Magpies within settlements showed a higher breeding success and density than outside (Tab. 5); the habitat (rural, urban, outskirts) was less important. Potential predators (GoshawkAccipiter gentilis, Carrion CrowCorvus corone corone) had no effect, Probably because of its low densities. The relation to colonies of the Fieldfare (Turdus pilaris) is interpreted as a common use of grassland as feeding site during the breeding season (Tab. 5). Magpies seem to avoid the vicinity of forests (Tab. 4). The altitude had only a slight effect on breeding success and nesting behaviour. Among several factors which refer to the nesting site (tree type, height, exposition, period of leaf break, nest type) only the nest age had a clear (positive) effect on breeding success. Magpies preferred higher trees for nest-building (Tab. 4). The influence of other factors (density of nest sites, hunting, character of trees) and the relation between the different factors are discussed.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Auf einer Fläche von 128 km2 im Raum Rayreuth (Oberfranken) wurde der Einfluß verschiedener Faktoren auf Bruterfolg, Nestbau, Siedlungsdichte und Nistplatzwahl der Elster durch multivariable statistische Methoden geprüft. Größte Bedeutung kam der Lage zur Siedlung zu: Elstern innerhalb von Siedlungen hatten einen vergleichsweise höheren Bruterfolg und eine höhere Siedlungsdichte. Das Habitat (Stadt, Stadtrand, Land) spielte demgegenüber eine geringere Rolle. Ein Einfluß potentieller Feinde (Rabenkrähe, Habicht) war (vermutlich wegen zu geringer Dichte) nicht erkennbar. Die mögliche Beziehung zur Wacholderdrossel wird als gemeinsame Nutzung von Grünland als wichtigste Nahrungsquelle diskutiert. Waldrandnahe Standorte wurden gemieden. Die Höhenlage hatte nur einen geringen Einfluß auf Bruterfolg und Nestbauverhalten. Von verschiedenen das Nest betreffenden Parametern (Baumtyp, Baumhöhe, Exposition, Blattaustrieb, Nestausbau, Nestalter) hatte nur das Nestalter einen deutlichen positiven Effekt auf den Bruterfolg. Bei der Wahl eines Nistplatzes war die Baumhöhe die einzig erkennbare wichtige Größe: Elstern nutzten höhere Bäume als dem durchschnittlichen Angebot entsprach. Die Bedeutung anderer Faktoren (Nistplatzangebot, Jagd) und die Beziehung zwischen den verschiedenen Parametern wird diskutiert.

    Notes: Abstract Superferritic stainless steels become embrittled when aged in a temperature interval around 475 °C, This phenomenon has been studied in the alloy Fe-28Cr-2Mo-4Ni-Nb by measuring the decrease in the energy absorbed in the impact test as a function of ageing time at 475 °C. The change which occurs in the microstructure has been studied by small-angle neutron scattering. It is shown that ageing at 475 °C produces the decomposition of the alloy in zones rich in chromium via spinodal decomposition. The high rate of embrittlement observed, compared with that which occurs in Fe-Cr binary alloys of similar chromium content, is related to a faster development of the spinodal decomposition in the steel studied.

    Notes: Abstract The concentrations of B, Ca, Co, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, P, Zn and agar were determined in samples of the red alga,Pterocladia capillacea, collected during one year in three distinct locations having different hydrologic characteristics, close to the city of Arraial do Cabo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Pattern recognition methods showed that, although these concentrations are subject to temporal variations, they are more dependent on the location from which the samples were collected. Algae from locations with high human activity were richer in P, B, Co, Zn and agar than those from other locations.

    Notes: Abstract We have attempted to elucidate the natural history of pulmonary aspergillus intracavitary colonization (PAIC) based on more than 350 cases of the disease observed in the last 11 years and on data collected from the literature. The data indicate that PAIC is a dynamic process consequent to the continual growth and death of fungal elements and also with their relationships to the anatomic features of the cavity (valvular mechanisms, vascular alteration). The clinical presentations reflect immunological changes in the host. Metabolites produced by the species of Aspergillus involved affect the clinical presentation of the syndrome.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Bei den beiden Affenarten Callithrix jacchus und Saguinus fuscicollis, die der gleichen Neuweltaffenfamilie der Krallenaffen angehören, wurden extrem unterschiedliche Serumascorbatspiegel gefunden, obwohl die Tiere unter identischen Bedingungen in derselben Kolonie gehalten wurden. Die14C-Ausscheidung von oral verabreichter 1-14C-AA wurde unter marginaler wie auch reichlicher Vitamin-C-Versorgung sowie unter Streßbedingungen untersucht. Zwischen niedriger und hoher Vitamin-C-Versorgung traten große Unterschiede im14C-Ausscheidungsmodus auf. Der Speziesunterschied war dabei geringer als der Unterschied zwischen individuellen Streß-/Nichtstreß-Bedingungen, aber in beiden Fällen war er gleichartig. In vergleichbaren Versuchen reagierte S. fuscicollis derart, daß ein höherer Streßzustand bei dieser Spezies angenommen werden kann.
    Notes: Summary Recently it has been found that the two monkey species Callithrix jacchus and Saguinus fuscicollis, both belonging to the same New World monkey family Callitrichidae and held in the same colony under identical conditions, had extremely different serum ascorbate levels. To examine the ascorbic acid metabolism the14C-excretion of orally given 1-14C-ascorbic acid was studied under conditions of marginal and abundant vitamin C supply and under intentional stress. There were large differences in the mode of14C excretion between low and high ascorbate supply. The differences were smaller between stress/no stress conditions intraindividually than between the two species, but they were in the same manner. In comparable trials S. fuscicollis reacted such that a higher status of stress can be supposed in this species.

    Notes: Abstract The isolation and purification of a neutral glycolipid fraction fromTaenia crassiceps metacestodes (KBS strain), harvested from both male and female NMRI mice at 70–80 days following intraperitoneal infection, revealed 24 thin-layer chromatography-designated glycolipid bands. The glycolipids were defined as ceramide mono-(n=3), di-(n=3), tri-(n=4), tetra-(n=5), and 〉tetrasaccharides (n=9) according to their running properties as defined by thin-layer chromatography against standards of known structure. The defined glycolipids were tested for immunoreactivity with sera from noninfected andT. crassiceps-infected NMRI mice (intraperitoneal injection or implantation of 15 larvae/animal) using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) until day 33 p.i. (IgM and IgG reaction) and high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) combined with immunostaining (IgG reaction) until day 7 p.i. ELISA-determined IgM and IgG titres were significantly elevated from day 5 p.i. Immunostaining revealed early reactivity for certain ceramide tetra- and 〉tetrasaccharides (n=6) on day 3 p.i. From day 5 p.i. onwards, nearly all glycolipids, including ceramide mono-and disaccharides, were recognized by the sera from metacestode-challenged mice. On day 7 p.i., a total of 22 bands were serologically active; of these, a considerable number (n=10) showed increased staining intensity. Remarkably, in many cases (10 of 20), 3 glycolipids (tetra-and 〉tetrasaccharides) were weakly recognized by mouse sera taken before infection.

    Notes: Abstract In a previous study, we determined the structures of the glycans present in ancrod, a thrombin-like serine protease from the venom of the Malayan pit viperAgkistrodon rhodostoma (Pfeifferet al. (1992)Eur J Biochem 205:961–78). In order to allocate the various carbohydrate chains to distinctN-glycosylation sites of the molecule, we have now isolated individual glycopeptides. Peptide moieties were identified after deglycosylation with peptide-N 4-(N-acetyl-β-glucosaminyl)asparagine amidase F by amino acid analysis and sequencing. Liberated oligosaccharides were assigned to the previously deduced carbohydrate structures by high performance liquid chromatography. Although only quantitative differences were observed, the results indicate that each glycosylation site of ancrod carries its characteristic oligosaccharide pattern. Furthermore, all potential sites were shown to be substituted by carbohydrates.
