    Description: Maturation in the onychoteuthid squid Moroteuthis ingens was found to be irreversible, with death following shortly after sexual maturation and spawning. Both males and females were found with spent gonads. The ovary reaches very large sizes in mature females and probably prevends feeding by constricting the caecum. There was also a marked difference in the tissue with an inelastic, gelantinous appearence. Histological examination of the mantle wall revealed that the tissue breakdown was due to a drastic histolysis of muscle tissue and, to a lesser extent, collagen fibres. Mature males also showed some tissue breakdown and loss of muscle fibres but this was not as dramatic as in the females. These features are considered in relation to processes contributing to terminal maturation in M. ingens.

    Description: The diet of King Penguins Aptenodytes patagonica at Possession Island was studied in February 1989 by analysis of 20 stomach contents collected from adult birds, just before they fed their single chicks. The mean mass of the samples was 1.84 kg, equivalent to 15% of the unladen adult body-mass. Fish accounted for 99.8% and squids for 0.2% by mass. The main prey were mesopelagic myctophid fish which live in dense shoals and perform a daily vertical migration. Subadults/adults of Electrona carlsbergi and juveniles and subadults/adults of Krefftichthys anderssoni represented 73.7 and 13.4% of the diet by mass, respectively. No difference was found in the diet of male and female King Penguins. Comparison of individual samples suggests that these birds catch a large quantity of fish from only a limited number of shoals. The mean caloric content of the food was 7 kJ/g wet mass. The total energy requirement of each chick during its initial period of growth was estimated to amount to 328,000 kJ, equivalent to 55 kg of food. The rate at which energy was delivered to the chick was calculated to be 50 W during this period.

    Description: In Loligo forbesi Steenstrup, the female reproductive system consists of the ovary and accessory reproductive organs which include the oviducal gland, the nidamental gland, the accessory nidamental gland and seminal receptacle. Histological studies were made on the accessory reproductive organs of female L. forbesi. The various changes observed during maturation are described and the functional significance discussed. The secretions produced by the oviducal gland and nidamental gland apparently form the egg coats. The seminal receptacle serves to store spermatozoa after mating. The function of the accessory nidamental gland is unknown.

    Description: Whether the study of external morphology can increase our knowledge of shallow-water octopuses and their biology is tested by multivariate morphometric analyses. The extent of morphological variation among 20 species from the Atlantic and eastern tropical Pacific Oceans is explored, and four hypotheses are addressed: (1) that octopuses show secondary sexual dimorphism; (2) that remote, ostensibly conspecific populations are morphologically distinct; (3) that morphometric characters contribute to resource partitioning among sympatric species; and (4) that morphology is predictably associated with habitat. Results of principal components analysis show most species to be very similar in shape. Arm length contributes most shape variation; other characters contribute little. Principal components and size-free discriminant analyses refute each of the hypotheses considered. The morphological similarity of isolated Atlantic populations may be a symplesiomorphy, but information on the planktonic phase of the octopus lire cycle supports the possibility of dispersal across the Atlantic Ocean. Size, not directly treated here, may significantly affect some aspects of octopus biology. Increased female size may evolve due to selection for increased fecundity and intraspecific niche partitioning. Size may also indicate interaction within and among species. Characters of shape, deemed essential to species descriptions, do not appear to be able to identify most specimens, nor to increase our understanding of octopus biology.

    Description: The cephalopod fauna collected during six surveys carried out in the bathyal basin of the north-western Mediterranean is discussed. Samples were taken at depths mainly between 1000 and 2000 m. Ten species were identified. Bathypolypus sponsalis and Neorossia caroli were the commonest species. Small individuals of both these species occurred at greater depths than did larger individuals, suggesting up-slope ontogenetic migration. The depth ranges recorded for all species collected are discussed and compared to the results of previous studies found in the literature.

    Description / Table of Contents: Eine Reihe makroporöser Glycidylmethacrylat-Ethylendimethacrylat-Copolymerer (GMA-co-EDMA) wurde durch Suspensionspolymerisation hergestellt; dabei wurden nach einer statistisch geplanten experimentellen Durchführung die Ethylendimethacrylatkonzentration und die Heizrate der Polymerisationstemperatur von 20 auf 70°C variiert. Die Porositätseigenschaften der hydrolysierten Copolymeren wurden mit Hilfe der Größenausschlußchromatographie unter Verwendung von Polystyrolstandards in Tetrahydrofuran charakterisiert. Das Porenvolumen, die spezifische Oberfläche und die Porengröße werden dabei durch die Konzentration des Vernetzungsmittels stärker beEinflußt als durch die Heizrate während der Polymerisation.
    Notes: A series of macroporous glycidyl methacrylate-ethylene dimethacrylate copolymers have been prepared by the suspension polymerization according to a statistical design of experimental approach in which concentration of ethylene dimethacrylate and time needed for raising the polymerization temperature from 20 to 70°C have been varied. The porous properties of hydrolyzed copolymers have been characterized by means of size exclusion chromatography using polystyrene standards in tetrahydrofuran. Pore volume, specific surface area, and pore size are affected by the crosslinking agent concentration rather than by the rate of temperature increase during the polymerization reaction.

    Description / Table of Contents: Copolymers of AN were prepared with variable molecular masses and with variable contents of methylacrylate (ASME) and sodiumallylsulfonate (NaAS), acrylamide (AA), itaconic acid (IS), polyethyleneglycol acrylate (600) (PEGA), vinylacetate (VA), 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, (HEE) or sodium acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonate (NaAMPS), respectively, by using a mathematical model for the calculation of the polymerization conditions needed. Precipitation studies by light scattering showed the predominant influence of NaAS and NaAMPS on the precipitation properties. Acrylonitrile homopolymers show a hard precipitation behaviour. The originating particles have a density of between 0.2 and 0.4 g/cm3. An increasing content of NaAS or NaAMPS leads for example beginning from 0.8 wt.-% NaAS in the monomer composition to a soft precipitation behaviour and to highly swollen particles possessing a density of less than 1 · 10-2 g/cm3. The molar mass and the ASME-content show no significant influence. For the acrylonitrile/acrylamide system already 0.5 wt.-% allylsulfonate is sufficient to get a soft precipitation behaviour with formation of highly swollen particles. All samples with the other cocomponents and without NaAS- or NaAMPS-comonomer show a hard precipitation behaviour with little swollen particles.
    Notes: Copolymere des Acrylnitrils (AN) mit variabler Molmasse bzw. mit variablem Anteil von Acrylsäuremethylester (ASME) und Natriumallylsulfonat (NaAS), Acrylamid (AA), Itaconsäure (IS), Polyethylenglykolacrylat (600) (PEGA), Vinylacetat (VA), Acrylsäure-2-hydroxyethylester (HEE) oder Natrium-2-acrylamido-2-methylpropansulfonat (NaAMPS) wurden hergestellt, wobei die erforderlichen Polymerisations-bedingungen mit Hilfe eines mathematischen Polymerisationsmodells ermittelt wurden.Die Fällungsuntersuchungen mit der Methode der Lichtstreuung zeigten, daß NaAS und NaAMPS einen dominierenden Einfluß haben. Bei Acrylnitril-Homopolymeren tritt eine harte Fällung auf, und die entstehenden Partikel haben eine Dichte zwischen 0,2 und 0,4 g/cm3. Zunehmender NaAS-bzw. NaAMPS-Gehalt führt ab einem Gehalt von beispielsweise ca. 0,8 Gew.-% NaAS im Monomergemisch zu einer weichen Fällung, bei der hochgequollene Partikel mit einer Dichte in der Größenordnung von 〈 1.10-2 g/cm3 entstehen. Ein Einfluß der Molmassen und des ASME-Gehaltes Konnte nicht nachgewiesen werden. Beim Acrylnitril/Acrylamid-System genügen offensichtlich 0,5 Gew.-% Allylsulfonat im Monomeransatz, um eine stabile, weiche Fällung unter Bildung hochgequollener Strukturen zu gewährleisten. Alle Proben mit den übrigen hydrophilen Cokomponenten zeigen ohne NaAS bzw. NaAMPS-Comonomer ein hartes Fäungsverhalten mit wenig gequollenen Partikeln.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Photovernetzung von Poly(p-hydroxystyrol) (PPHS) wird durch O2 beachtlich beschleunigt. Dies ergab sich aus der Bestimmung der Molmasse (mit Hilfe der Lichtstreumethode) und des Gelanteils nach kontinuierlicher Bestrahlung bei λinc = 254 nm. Aufgrund von Ergebnissen aus Blitzphotolyseversuchen wird der folgende Reaktionsmechanismus aufgestellt: Die Vernetzung sowohl in An-als auch Abwesenheit von O2 kommt im wesentlichen durch Kombination von Radikalen des Phenoxyltyps zustande. In Abwesenheit von O2 werden Phenoxylradikale ausschließlich durch Spaltung von O—H-Bindungen phenolischer Gruppen, die sich im angeregten Singulettzustand befinden, erzeugt. Triplett-angeregte phenolische Gruppen, die sich auch bilden, desaktivieren nicht durch Spaltung der O—H-Bindungen. Sie reagieren allerdings sehr effektiv, sofern vorhanden, mit O2. Bei dieser Reaktion entstehen HO·2- und zusätzliche Phenoxylradikale. Alle handelsüblichen und die meisten im Labor synthetisierten PPHS-Proben enthalten chemisch gebundene, chinoidartige Verunreinigungen. Durch Versuche mit niedermolekularen Modellverbindungen wurde nachgewiesen, daß triplett-angeregte chinoide Gruppen einerseits mit phenolischen Gruppen unter Bildung von Phenoxylradikalen reagieren und daß sie andererseits unreaktiv sind bezüglich der Abstraktion aliphatischer Wasserstoffatome. Die Bestrahlung von PPHS bei λinc = 254 nm bewirkt die Bildung chinoider Gruppen, die bei dieser Wellenlänge auch stark absorbieren. Die Lichtabsorption dieser Gruppen wird im Laufe der weiteren Bestrahlung zum bestimmenden Faktor hinsichtlich der photochemischen Veränderung des Polymeren.
    Notes: Light-induced crosslinking of poly(p-hydroxystyrene) (PPHS) is significantly enhanced by O2. This was evidenced by molar mass (light scattering measurements) and by gel content determinations which were performed on various polymer samples before and after continuous irradiation at λinc = 254 nm. The following mechanism was elucidated with the aid of flash photolysis studies: Crosslinking in the absence or presence of O2 is mainly due to the combination of phenoxyl type radicals. In the absence of O2 the latter are exclusively formed by O—H bond cleavage of singlet excited phenolic groups. Triplet excited phenolic groups which are also formed do not deactivate via O—H bond cleavage but react very effectively with O2. This reaction leads to the formation of HO2· and additional phenoxyl type radicals. All Commercial and most laboratory-prepared PPHS samples contain chemically bound impurities of quinoid nature. On the basis of results performed with model compounds of low molar mass, it is concluded that triplet excited quinoid groups react effectively with phenolic groups forming phenoxyl type radicals and that they are quite unreactive with respect to the abstraction of alphatic hydrogen atoms. Irradiation of PPHS at λinc = 254 nm causes the formation of quinoid groups which absorb strongly at this wavelength. Light absorption by these groups becomes a determining factor with respect to photochemical alteration in the course of further irradiation.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die verschiedenartigen Eigenschaften von Polymerlegierungen aus Polyoxymethylen (POM) und bis zu 20 Gew.-% chemische oberf;ächenbehandeltem Poly(tetrafluorethylen) (CPTFE) wurden untersucht und denen unbahandelter POM/PTFE- Blends gegenübergestellt. PTFE iwrd POM zugesetzt, um dessen Oberflächenabriebseigenschaften Anteil zunehmend verschlechtert. Durch die bessere Phasenanbindung in den oberflächenbehandelten POM/CPTFE- Blends konnten die doppelten Zugfestigkeiten und EModuli wie bei unbehandelten POM/PTEF- Blends erreicht werden. Mit Hilfe der Elektronenmikroskopie (SEM) konnte gezeigt werden, daß die PTEF-Agglomerate in der POM-Matrix eine Größe von 30 bis 100 μm haben, während die CPTFE-Teilchengrößbe unter 1 μum liegt.
    Notes: The various properties of the blends of polyacetal (POM) with up to 20 wt.-% chemically surface-treated poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (CPTFE) were investigated and compared with those of POM/PTFE blends. The PTFE is added to POM to improve the wear properties, however, the mechanical properties of POM/PTFE blends decrease with increasing PTFE content, but tensile strength and Young's modulus of POM/CPTFE blends are more than 2 times higher than that of the POM/PTFE blends. SEM shows that the size of inherent agglomerative PTFE is in the range of 30 to 100 μm. The particle size of major CPTFE dispersed in POM is smaller than 1 μm.
