    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La préparation de coupes fines, plano-parallèles d'os non décalcifié, d'épaisseur connue, pour la réalisation de microradiographies et d'autoradiographies quantitatives est décrite. Pour éviter que des fractures de l'os se produisent, le fragment osseux fixé doit être inclus dans un matériel approprié qui ne doit pas se rétracter. Un minimum de force doit être appliqué à l'échantillon pendant la coupe pour éviter des vibrations. La méthode décrite, utilisant une scie circulaire tournant à faible vitesse, est adéquate. Le polissage final des surfaces du specimen est réalisé sur une machine à polir modifiée. On peut préparer un grand nombre de coupes en relativement peu de temps pour des études statistiques.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Die Herstellung von dünnen, parallelgestellten Schnitten von unentkalktem Knochen bekannter Dicke zur quantitativen Auto- und Mikroradiographie wird beschrieben. Der Knochen hat die Tendenz, unter Druck zu brechen. Um diese Schwierigkeit zu überwinden, ist es sehr wichtig, daß die fixierte Knochenprobe genügend vom Einbettungsmaterial durchdrungen wird und daß das Einschlußmittel sich vom Knochenrand weg kontrahiert. Beim Schneiden darf nur ein minimaler Druck auf die Probe ausgeübt werden, damit der Knochen nicht zertrümmert wird. Die beschriebene Methode, bei welcher eine spezielle Einrichtung zum Auftropfen des Schmiermittels den Gebrauch einer langsam rotierenden Kreissäge ermöglichte, erwies sich als günstig. Das schließliche Polieren der Oberflächen der Proben wurde auf einer modifizierten Schleifmaschine ausgeführt. Mit dieser Methode kann eine große Anzahl von Schnitten in relativ kurzer Zeit hergestellt werden; dies ist sehr wichtig, um eine angemessene Anzahl von Proben für statistische Analysen zu erhalten.
    Notes: Abstract The preparation of thin, parallel-sided sections of undecalcified bone of known thickness for quantitative auto- and micro-radiography is described. To overcome the tendency of the bone to fracture when stressed, it is essential that the fixed sample of bone should be adequately penetrated by the embedding material and that the mounting material should not contract away from the edge of the bone. Minimum stress must be applied to the sample when cutting or the bone may be shattered. The method described, using a gravity feed to a low speed circular saw, has been found to be suitable. Final polishing of the surfaces of the specimen was carried out on a modified lapping machine. Large numbers of sections can be prepared in a relatively short time by the method and this is essential to obtain an adequate number of samples for statistical analysis.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des rats femelles reçoivent du45Ca ou du32P au 13ème et 18ème jour de la grossesse. Les coupes sériées des têtes de foetus sont étudiées par autoradiographie et par diverses méthodes histologiques pour déterminer la calcification. La détection la plus précoce de45Ca s'observe simultanément comme une réaction positive pour le calcium avec une des méthodes histologiques utilisées.32P est en évidence par les méthodes autoradiographiques un peu plus tard que le45Ca et sa présence coincide avec la réaction positive la plus précoce observée avec les autres méthodes histologiques utilisées. Les os de ces têtes foetales commencent à se calcifier selon un mode particulier commençant par la mandibule, puis l'os frontal et le maxillaire supérieur, suivis par les os nasaux, pariétaux et interpariétaux.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Weibliche Ratten erhielten45Ca und32P zwischen dem 13.–18. Tag der Schwangerschaft. Zur Ermittlung der Verkalkung wurden Serienschnitte der Köpfe ihrer Feten mittels Autoradiographie sowie durch verschiedene histologische Methoden untersucht. Das erste Auftreten von45Ca war ebenfalls von einer positiven Calciumreaktion mittels einer der verwendeten histologischen Methoden begleitet.32P wurde in der Autoradiographie erst etwas später als45Ca festgestellt und dessen Nachweis deckte sich mit den ersten positiven Reaktonen aller anderen verwendeten histologischen Methoden. Die Knochen in diesen Fetusköpfen begannen in einer bestimmten Sequenz zu verkalken: zuerst der Unterkiefer, dann das Stirnbein und der Oberkiefer, dann das Nasenbein, die Parietal- und Interparietalknochen.
    Notes: Abstract Female rats were given45Ca or32P from 13 to 18 days of pegnancy. Serial sections from the heads of their fetuses were studied by autoradiography, as well as by several histological methods for assessing calcification. The earliest detection of45calcium occured at the same time as a positive reaction for calcium with one of the histological methods used.32P was not detectable by autoradiographic methods until somewhat later than45Ca, and its presence coincided with the earliest positive reaction with all of the other histological methods employed. The bones in these fetal heads began to calcify in a partcular sequence, the mandible first, then the frontal bone and maxilla, followed by the nasal, parietal and interparietal bones.

    Notes: Summary Electron microscopical observations of the size and shape of bone mineral crystallites have not been in complete agreement with X-ray diffraction findings. The two prevalent viewpoints consider bone mineral crystals to be either rod, or plate like in habit. There appears to be agreement that the smallest dimension of the crystals is about 5 nm, but there is discrepancy in the reported c-axial lengths. The method of dark field imaging is used to obtain a quantitative measurement of the c-axial length distribution in rabbit, ox and human bone: mean c-axial lengths 32.6 nm, 36.2 nm and 32.4 nm, respectively, show no significant difference at the 5% level to the mean c-axial length measured by X-ray line broadening. Both bright and dark field images strongly suggest that bone mineral has a plate like form. Reasons for past discrepancies are discussed.

    Notes: Summary The effects of parathyroid hormone (PTH) on the size of the osteoclasts, nuclei, ruffled borders, and clear zones in long bones of thyroparathyroidectomized (TPTX) rats were quantitated as a function of time. These data were compared with the number of osteoclasts in the bone and with plasma calcium levels. A significant increase in the average size of the ruffled borders was demonstrated 30 min after injection of 50 U of purified bovine PTH, and of the clear zones 30–90 min after PTH. This was followed at 90 min by an increase in the average size of the cells. The sizes of ruffled borders and clear zones dropped sharply to control levels after 6 h, whereas the size of the cells remained elevated up to 12 h and returned to control values at 24 h. Plasma calcium levels were increased, but not significantly, between 30 min and 6 h. An increase in the number of osteoclasts was significant after 12 h. Removal of the parathyroid glands did not diminish the normal activity of osteoclasts. In animals with intact glands injection of 50 U of PTH did not cause a significant change in cell size or resorbing apparatus. It is concluded that PTH acts to rapidly stimulate the bone resorptive activity of osteoclasts and to cause a delayed increase in their number.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Ce travail étudie les effets d'une carence en sodium sur le squelette chez le Rat en croissance. Il a été effectué sur 3 groupes de Rats: groupe carencé, groupe témoin sous-nutri et groupe témoin normal. L'étude macroradiographique et microradiographique des tibias révèle que la carence en sodium provoque en 8 semaines une diminution de la longueur, un amincissement de l'espace métaphyso-épiphysaire et l'apparition d'une ostéopénie. Cette ostéopénie prédomine sur la métaphyse par rapport à la diaphyse. Au niveau de celle-ci, le rapport cortico-diaphysaire est diminué. Ce changement est essentiellement dû à l'amincissement de l'os cortical par sa face périphérique. Le marquage par la tétracycline confirme cette atteinte prédominante de l'apposition périostée. L'étude histologique et l'étude autoradiographique suggèrent que cette ostéopénie résulte d'un important ralentissement de l'ostéogénèse et de l'activité globale du tissu osseux. L'analyse chimique révèle des changements minimes de la composition des fémurs. La teneur en cendres est légèrement abaissée. La rapport Ca/P est légèrement augmenté. Les rapports Ca/N et P/N sont diminués. Le rapport Na/Ca est augmenté. Les mécanismes possibles de cette atteinte squelettique sont envisagés: sous-nutrition, effet acidifiant du régime, trouble de l'absorption intestinale du calcium, retentissement surrénal et conséquences cellulaires de la carence en sodium. En conclusion, dans le déterminisme de l'atteinte osseuse semblent devoir être retenus: a) l'inanition dûe à l'anorexie provoquée par le régime désodé, b) und effet squelettique propre de la carence en sodium, le trouble de l'absorption intestinale du calcium ne paraissant pas jouer un rôle déclenchant.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung In dieser Arbeit wurde der Einfluß eines Natriummangels auf das Skelet der noch wachsenden Ratte beobachtet. Die Studie betrifft drei Gruppen von Ratten: eine mit Natriummangel, eine normal ernährte und eine unterernährte Kontrollgruppe. Die makro- und mikroradiographische Untersuchung der Tibiae nach 8wöchigem Natriummangel zeigt eine Verkürzung, eine Verringerung des metaphyso-epiphysären Intervalls und eine Osteopenie, die in der Metaphyse merkbarer als in der Diaphyse ist. Das corticodiaphysische Verhältnis ist herabgesetzt, und zwar verjüngt sich der Knochencortex peripherisch. Mit markiertem Tetracyclin wird bewiesen, daß vorwiegend die periphere Knochenbildung betroffen ist. Die histologische und autoradiographische Untersuchung erlaubt die Annahme, daß diese Osteopenie auf stark verlangsamte Knochenbildung und gesamte metabolische Tätigkeit des Knochengewebes zurückzuführen ist. Die chemische Analyse weist unerhebliche Änderungen der Zusammensetzung der Femora auf. Der Aschengehalt ist leicht vermindert. In den Epiphysen ist Ca/P leicht erhöht. Ca/N und P/N sind herabgesetzt. Na/Ca ist wenig verändert. Die möglichen Mechanismen dieser Skeletveränderungen werden erörtert: Unterernährung, diätbedingte Säurebildung, Störung der intestinalen Calciumabsorption, Nebennieren-beeinflussung und Zellstoffwechselveränderungen durch Natriummangel. Zusammenfassend scheint hauptsächlich die Unterernährung eine Rolle zu spielen. Dazu kommen die direkten Folgen des Natriummangels auf den intestinalen Zucker- und Aminosäurentransport.
    Notes: Abstract The effects of sodium deficiency on the skeleton were studied in growing rats assigned to 3 groups: sodium deficient group, pair-fed controls, normal controls. Macroradiographic and microradiographic examinations and measurements of the tibia demonstrated that sodium deficiency after 8 weeks resulted in shorter bones, thinner cartilage and osteopenia. This osteopenia was greater in metaphysis than in diaphysis. However the cortico-diaphyseal ratio decreased, resulting from cortical bone thinning by the periosteal side. Histologic and autoradiographic examinations suggested that this osteopenia resulted from a marked slowing down of osteogenesis and total bone turnover. The mineral composition of the femur was little changed. The ash rate, Ca/N and P/N ratios decreased slightly. The Ca/P ratio increased slightly. The Na/Ca ratio increased also. The following possible mechanisms of skeletal damage were considered: undernutrition, acidifying effect of diet, fall of calcium intestinal absorption, adrenal and cellular changes resulting from the sodium deficiency. In conclusion, the bone lesions appear to be caused by undernutrition and in addition by a skeletal effect specifically due to sodium deficiency.

    Notes: Abstract Scanning and transmission electron microscopy showed that a ceiling quantity (1.56 mcg) of antifungal antibiotic Pyrrolnitrin caused heavy damage to dermathophyteMicrosporon audouinii Gruby CBS 313-54in vitro. Suitable preparation technique made it clear that the changes involved consisted of hyphal collapse on the edge of the culture, with loss of euplasmic organelles identity and cell autolysis. The cell wall, however, was apparently undamaged. These findings fit in with the suggestion that the mode of action of the antibiotic leads to generalised lipoproteic membranes damage. They must, however, be considered as representing the result of the terminal phase of cell distress.

    Notes: Abstract An ultrastructural investigation of six different species of Prototheca showed that all of them contained starch grains enclosed in double-membrane-bounded structures recognized as plastids. It is concluded that these unicellular species of Prototheca must be considered as non-photosynthetic algae.

    Notes: Abstract Four thiocyanatopyrazole derivatives were synthesized and their fungistatic activity was demonstrated in vitro against a number of dermatophytic fungi. In Trichophyton mentagrophytes, the most active compound induced an unusual increase of the plasma membrane with production of intra and extracytoplasmic complexes, a deterioration of nuclear and mitochondrial membranes and a formation of autophagic-like vacuoles. Plasmolysis, accompanied by an almost complete disorganization of cytoplasmic structures, seemed to be the final event. A possible mechanism of action of the compounds was discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Point defect agglomerates in dislocation-free silicon crystals, usually called “swirls”, have been investigated by means of high-voltage electron microscopy. It was found that a single swirl defect consists of a dislocation loop or a cluster of dislocation loops. By contrast experiments it could be shown that these loops are formed by agglomeration of self-interstitial atoms. Generally the loops have a/2〈110〉 Burgers vectors, but in specimens with high concentrations of carbon (∼1017 cm−3) and oxygen (∼1016 cm−3) also dislocation loops including a stacking fault were observed. In crystals grown at growth rates higher thanv=4 mm/min no swirls are observed; lower growth rates do not markedly affect the size and shape of the dislocation loops. With decreasing impurity content (particulary of oxygen and carbon) the swirl density decreases, whereas the dislocation loop clusters become larger and more complex. A model is presented which describes the formation of swirls in terms of agglomeration of silicon self-interstitials and impurity atoms.
