    Description: Picosecond spectroscopy is a relatively new field of science that utilizes ultrashort laser pulses to monitor events taking place in the 10(-12) second regime. The continuing development of picosecond spectroscopy has made possible the detection and measurement of the primary events in many physical and tiological processes. This article describes a currently used picosecond spectroscopy system that is capable of reliably recording picosecond events. Two areas of picosecond research are discussed; one concerns the interaction of electrons in fluids, and the second the primary events in vision.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rentzepis, P M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Oct 13;202(4364):174-82.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/694523" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The structure and absolute stereoconfigurations of four adenosine adducts with (+/-)-7 alpha,8 beta-dihydroxy-9 beta, 10 beta-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo(a)pyrene (BPDE) and their deoxyadenosine analogs have been determined. They result from both cis and trans addition of the N6 amino group of ademine to the 10 position of both enantiomers of BDPE. This was determined from studies of the nuclear magnetic resonance spectra, mass spectra, and circular dichroism spectra, as well as from their pKa values and chemical reactivities.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jeffrey, A M -- Grzeskowiak, K -- Weinstein, I B -- Nakanishi, K -- Roller, P -- Harvey, R G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Dec 14;206(4424):1309-11.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/316186" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Alkyl-Substituted gamma-butyrolactones were synthesized and tested for their convulsant and anticonvulsant actions in mice and guinea pigs. The alpha-substituted compounds, alpha, alpha-dimethyl-, and alpha-ethyl-alpha-methyl-gamma-butyrolactone were anticonvulsant compounds with a spectrum of activity similar to that of ethosuximide. In contrast, beta-substituted compounds were convulsant agents similar to picrotoxinin. The alpha-substituted-gama-butyrolactones represent a new class of anticonvulsant drug with experimental and clinical potential.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Klunk, W E -- McKeon, A -- Covey, D F -- Ferrendelli, J A -- GM-07200/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM-24483/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- NS-14834/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1982 Sep 10;217(4564):1040-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6810462" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Crystalline cholesterol undergoes a phase transition a few degrees below human body temperature. The high-temperature form has an unusually complex structure with 16 independent molecules. In the transition two molecules change side chain conformation, four reorient about their long axes, and ten remain unchanged. The transition mechanism implies relatively nonspecific intermolecular interactions, qualitatively consistent with the behavior of cholesterol in biomembranes. The transition preserves a remarkably closely obeyed pseudosymmetry present in the structure.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hsu, L Y -- Nordman, C E -- GM15259/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 May 6;220(4597):604-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6836303" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The iron-carbon monoxide stretching mode and the iron-carbon-oxygen bending mode in carbon monoxide-bound cytochrome oxidase have been assigned at 520 and 578 cm-1, respectively. The frequencies, widths, and intensities of these modes show that the Fe-C-O grouping in carbon monoxide-cytochrome a3 is linear but tilted from the normal to the heme plane; that the iron-histidine bond in both five- and six-coordinate cytochrome a3 is strained; and that the carbon monoxide and the proximal histidine each have characteristic, well-defined orientations in all molecules. These data can account for the binding affinities of carbon monoxide and dioxygen under physiological conditions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Argade, P V -- Ching, Y C -- Rousseau, D L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Jul 20;225(4659):329-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6330890" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Arachidonic acid plays a central role in a biological control system where such oxygenated derivatives as prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes are mediators. The leukotrienes are formed by transformation of arachidonic acid into an unstable epoxide intermediate, leukotriene A4, which can be converted enzymatically by hydration to leukotriene B4, and by addition of glutathione to leukotriene C4. This last compound is metabolized to leukotrienes D4 and E4 by successive elimination of a gamma-glutamyl residue and glycine. Slow-reacting substance of anaphylaxis consists of leukotrienes C4, D4, and E4. The cysteinyl-containing leukotrienes are potent bronchoconstrictors, increase vascular permeability in postcapillary venules, and stimulate mucus secretion. Leukotriene B4 causes adhesion and chemotactic movement of leukocytes and stimulates aggregation, enzyme release, and generation of superoxide in neutrophils. Leukotrienes C4, D4, and E4, which are released from the lung tissue of asthmatic subjects exposed to specific allergens, seem to play a pathophysiological role in immediate hypersensitivity reactions. These leukotrienes, as well as leukotriene B4, have pro-inflammatory effects.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Samuelsson, B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 May 6;220(4597):568-75.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6301011" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Peptide synthesis can be used for elucidating the roles of secondary structures in the specificity of hormones, antigens, and toxins. Intermediate sized peptides with these activities assume amphiphilic secondary structures in the presence of membranes. When models are designed to optimize the amphiphilicity of the secondary structure, stronger interactions can be observed with the synthetic peptides than with the naturally occurring analogs.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kaiser, E T -- Kezdy, F J -- HL-18577/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Jan 20;223(4633):249-55.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6322295" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Fourier transform mass spectrometry will play an important role in the future because of its unique combination of high mass resolution, high upper mass limit, and multichannel advantage. These features have already found application in gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, multiphoton ionization, laser desorption, and secondary ion mass spectrometry. However, its most notable feature is the ability to store ions. This characteristic, when combined with the others, will allow expeditious study of the interaction of gas-phase ions with both photons (photodissociation) and neutral molecules, and the convenient application of this fundamental information for chemical analysis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gross, M L -- Rempel, D L -- 2-8423576/PHS HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Oct 19;226(4672):261-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6385250" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: High-resolution carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of enzyme-inhibitor and enzyme-substrate complexes provide detailed structural and stereochemical information on the mechanism of enzyme action. The proteases trypsin and papain are shown to form tetrahedrally coordinated complexes and acyl derivatives with a variety of compounds artificially enriched at the site or sites of interest. These results are compared with the structural information derived from x-ray diffraction. Detailed NMR studies have provided a clearer picture of the ionization state of the residues participating in enzyme-catalyzed processes than other more classical techniques. The dynamics of enzymic catalysis can be observed at sub-zero temperatures by a combination of cryoenzymology and carbon-13 NMR spectroscopy. With these powerful techniques, transient, covalently bound intermediates in enzyme-catalyzed reactions can be detected and their structures rigorously assigned.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mackenzie, N E -- Malthouse, J P -- Scott, A I -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Aug 31;225(4665):883-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6433481" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The splicing of messenger RNA precursors in vitro proceeds through an intermediate that has the 5' end of the intervening sequence joined to a site near the 3' splice site. This lariat structure, which has been characterized for an adenovirus 2 major late transcript, has a branch point, with 2'-5' and 3'-5' phosphodiester bonds emanating from a single adenosine residue. The excised intervening sequence retains the branch site and terminates in a guanosine residue with a 3' hydroxyl group. The phosphate group at the splice junction between the two exons originates from the 3' splice site at the precursor.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Padgett, R A -- Konarska, M M -- Grabowski, P J -- Hardy, S F -- Sharp, P A -- P01-CA14051/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01-CA26717/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01-GM32467/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Aug 31;225(4665):898-903.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6206566" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The mechanism of lipid peroxidation and the manner in which antioxidants function is reviewed. beta-Carotene is a purported anticancer agent, which is believed by some to have antioxidant action of a radical-trapping type. However, definitive experimental support for such action has been lacking. New experiments in vitro show that beta-carotene belongs to a previously unknown class of biological antioxidants. Specifically, it exhibits good radical-trapping antioxidant behavior only at partial pressures of oxygen significantly less than 150 torr, the pressure of oxygen in normal air. Such low oxygen partial pressures are found in most tissues under physiological conditions. At higher oxygen pressures, beta-carotene loses its antioxidant activity and shows an autocatalytic, prooxidant effect, particularly at relatively high concentrations. Similar oxygen-pressure-dependent behavior may be shown by other compounds containing many conjugated double bonds.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Burton, G W -- Ingold, K U -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 May 11;224(4649):569-73.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6710156" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Aplysiatoxin and debromoaplysiatoxin, which are isolated from the seaweed, Lyngbya gracilis, differ in their chemical structure only by the presence or absence of a bromine residue in the hydrophilic region. The function and the structure-activity relation of the hydrophilic region are not known. Aplysiatoxin increased malignant transformation, stimulated DNA synthesis, and inhibited the binding of phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate and epidermal growth factor to cell receptors. Debromoaplysiatoxin inhibited the binding of these two substances as strongly as aplysiatoxin but did not increase malignant transformation or stimulate DNA synthesis. These results indicate that a slight change in the chemical structure of the hydrophilic region of aplysiatoxin affects its abilities to increase cell transformation and stimulate DNA synthesis and that the abilities of the tumor promoters to inhibit the binding of phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate and epidermal growth factor are dissociable from their abilities to increase cell transformation and stimulate DNA synthesis under some circumstances.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shimomura, K -- Mullinix, M G -- Kakunaga, T -- Fujiki, H -- Sugimura, T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 Dec 16;222(4629):1242-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6316505" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Yeast phenylalanine transfer RNA was subjected to a 12-picosecond molecular dynamics simulation. The principal features of the x-ray crystallographic analysis are reproduced, and the amplitudes of atomic displacements appear to be determined by the degree of exposure of the atoms. An analysis of the hydrogen bonds shows a correlation between the average length of a bond and the fluctuation in that length and reveals a rocking motion of bases in Watson-Crick guanine X cytosine base pairs. The in-plane motions of the bases are generally of larger amplitude than the out-of-plane motions, and there are correlations in the motions of adjacent bases.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Harvey, S C -- Prabhakaran, M -- Mao, B -- McCammon, J A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Mar 16;223(4641):1189-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6560785" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Sequence-dependent variations in DNA revealed by x-ray crystallographic studies have suggested that certain DNA-reactive drugs may react preferentially with defined sequences in DNA. Drugs that wind around the helix and reside within one of the grooves of DNA have perhaps the greatest chance of recognizing sequence-dependent features of DNA. The antitumor antibiotic CC-1065 covalently binds through N-3 of adenine and resides within the minor groove of DNA. This drug overlaps with five base pairs for which a high sequence specificity exists.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hurley, L H -- Reynolds, V L -- Swenson, D H -- Petzold, G L -- Scahill, T A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Nov 16;226(4676):843-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6494915" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A new class of synthetic antifungal agents, the allylamines , has been developed by modification of naftifine , a topical antimycotic. SF 86-327, the most effective of these compounds so far, is highly active in vitro against a wide range of fungi and exceeds clinical standards in the oral and topical treatment of guinea pig dermatophytoses. SF 86-327 is a powerful specific inhibitor of fungal squalene epoxidase, a key enzyme in sterol biosynthesis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Petranyi, G -- Ryder, N S -- Stutz, A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Jun 15;224(4654):1239-41.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6547247" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: By recombinant DNA techniques, a disulfide bond was introduced at a specific site in T4 lysozyme, a disulfide-free enzyme. This derivative retained full enzymatic activity and was more stable toward thermal inactivation than the wild-type protein. The derivative, T4 lysozyme (Ile3----Cys), was prepared by substituting a Cys codon for an Ile codon at position 3 in the cloned lysozyme gene by means of oligonucleotide-dependent, site-directed mutagenesis. The new gene was expressed in Escherichia coli under control of the (trp-lac) hybrid tac promoter, and the protein was purified. Mild oxidation generated a disulfide bond between the new Cys3 and Cys97, one of the two unpaired cysteines of the native molecule. Oxidized T4 lysozyme (Ile3----Cys) exhibited specific activity identical to that of the wild-type enzyme when measured at 20 degrees C in a cell-clearing assay. The cross-linked protein was more stable than the wild type during incubation at elevated temperatures as determined by recovered enzymatic activity at 20 degrees C.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Perry, L J -- Wetzel, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Nov 2;226(4674):555-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6387910" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The structures of three proteins that regulate gene expression have been determined recently and suggest how these proteins may bind to their specific recognition sites on the DNA. One protein (Cro) is a repressor of gene expression, the second (CAP) usually stimulates gene expression, and the third (lambda repressor) can act as either a repressor or an activator. The three proteins contain a substructure consisting of two consecutive alpha helices that is virtually identical in each case. Structural and amino acid sequence comparisons suggest that this bihelical fold occurs in a number of proteins that regulate gene expression, and is an intrinsic part of the DNA-protein recognition event. The modes of repression and activation by Cro and lambda repressor are understood reasonably well, but the mode of action of CAP is still unclear.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Takeda, Y -- Ohlendorf, D H -- Anderson, W F -- Matthews, B W -- GM20066/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM28138/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM30894/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 Sep 9;221(4615):1020-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6308768" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The effect of a partial pressure of nitrogen of 50 atmospheres (5065 kilopascals ) on the hydrogen evolution reaction of nitrogenase has been investigated. Evolution of hydrogen was not blocked completely by 50 atmospheres of nitrogen in any of four experiments; rather, 27.3 +/- 2.4 percent of the total electron flux through nitrogenase was directed toward production of hydrogen. The ratio of hydrogen evolved to nitrogen fixed was close to 1:1, which implies that hydrogen evolution is obligatory in the fixation of molecular nitrogen by nitrogenase.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Simpson, F B -- Burris, R H -- AI-00848/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Jun 8;224(4653):1095-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6585956" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: In concentrates of water produced in a laboratory simulation of a drinking water treatment process, direct-acting, nonvolatile mutagens were readily detected by means of the Ames Salmonella test. The mutagens were shown to be produced by the chlorination process. Treatment of the water with chloramine resulted in less mutagenic activity than treatment with free chlorine. Dechlorination of drinking water with sulfite sharply reduced the mutagenic activity. Treatment with sulfur dioxide is proposed as an effective, inexpensive method of reducing the direct-acting mutagenic activity of drinking water and of aqueous industrial effluents.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cheh, A M -- Skochdopole, J -- Koski, P -- Cole, L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1980 Jan 4;207(4426):90-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6985746" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Research on chitin as a marine resource is pointing to novel applications for this cellulose-like biopolymer. Discovery of nondegrading solvent systems has permitted the spinning of filaments, for example, for use as surgical sutures. New methods for preparing the bioactive alkyl glycoside of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (the monomer unit of chitin) and a microcrystalline chitin has encouraged their use as promoters for growth of bifidobacteria and as an aid in digestion of high-lactose cheese whey by domestic animals. Chitin-protein complexes of several crustacean species show great variability in ratios of chitin to covalently bound protein and in residual protein in the "purified" chitins.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Austin, P R -- Brine, C J -- Castle, J E -- Zikakis, J P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1981 May 15;212(4496):749-53.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7221561" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A new process has been developed which is called "Boradeption" to signify boronic acid--dependent phase transfer of water-insoluble agents. Highly fluorescent boronic acid dervatives, FluoroBoras, are solubilized with a physiologically compatible carrier buffer containing a receptor group for boronate adduct formation. The system can be used to stain living cells. In another variation of the Boradeption concept, an insoluble reporter molecule containing a boronate receptor is solubilized with a carrier buffer containing a boronic acid functional group. The boronate-receptor complexes, which are in dynamic equilibrium, can be designed as vital stains and reagents for a variety of biological and medical applications.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gallop, P M -- Paz, M A -- Henson, E -- AG-00376-07/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- HL-20764-04A1/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1982 Jul 9;217(4555):166-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6178158" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The scrapie agent causes a degenerative nervous system disease in sheep and goats. Studies with extensively purified preparations demonstrated that the agent contains a protein that is required for infectivity. Chemical modification of the scrapie agent by diethyl pyrocarbonate reduced the titer 1000-fold. Exposure of the inactivated agent to hydroxylamine, a strong nucleophile, resulted in complete restoration of infectivity. Presumably, nucleophilic residues within a scrapie agent protein undergo carbethoxylation on reaction with diethyl pyrocarbonate, and subsequent addition of hydroxylamine displaces these carbethoxy groups.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉McKinley, M P -- Masiarz, F R -- Prusiner, S B -- NS14069/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1981 Dec 11;214(4526):1259-61.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6795721" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The incubation of lens proteins with reducing sugars leads to the formation of fluorescent yellow pigments and cross-like similar to those reported in aging and cataractous human lenses. Called nonenzymatic browning or the Maillard reaction, this aging process also occurs in stored foods. Reducing sugars condense with the free amino group of proteins, then rearrange and dehydrate to form unsaturated pigments and cross-linked products. Although most proteins in living systems turn over with sufficient rapidity to avoid nonenzymatic browning, some, such as lens crystallins and skin collagen, are exceptionally long-lived and may be vulnerable.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Monnier, V M -- Cerami, A -- AM 19655/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1981 Jan 30;211(4481):491-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6779377" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Great advances have been made in fundamental scientific research in recent years. The new knowledge gathered, in addition to deepening our understanding of the physical universe, contributes a range of abilities and opportunities to society that would not otherwise be available. Much research that may be called applied because it addresses needs of society is quite fundamental in character, and support of such research at the National Science Foundation is to be handled in tandem by the research directorates. Other areas that require a refocusing of support are engineering science and education, at all levels, in science and engineering. Increasing our strength in these areas is essential to achieve our national economic, social, and political goals. Steps are being taken by the National Science Foundation to make its structure better able to deal with engineering and applied research and to provide greater mutual reinforcement between applied and basic research.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Slaughter, J B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1981 Mar 13;211(4487):1131-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7466384" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Resonance Raman spectra of photolyzed carbonmonoxyhemoglobin obtained with 10-nanosecond pulses are compared with the spectra of photolyzed carbonmonoxyhemoglobin stabilized at 80 K. In comparing the deoxy with the photodissociated species, the changes in the Raman spectra are the same for these two experimental regimes. These results show that at ambient and cryogenic temperatures the heme pocket in liganded hemoglobin is significantly different from that of deoxyhemoglobin. It is concluded that measurements of the properties of intermediate species from photodissociated hemoglobin stabilized at low temperatures can be used to probe the short-lived metastable forms of hemoglobin present after photodissociation under biologically relevant solution conditions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ondrias, M R -- Friedman, J M -- Rousseau, D L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 May 6;220(4597):615-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6836305" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Glucose reacts nonenzymatically with the NH2-terminal amino acid of the beta chain of human hemoglobin by way of a ketoamine linkage, resulting in the formation of hemoglobin AIc. Other minor components appear to be adducts of glucose 6-phosphate and fructose 1,6-diphosphate. These hemoglobins are formed slowly and continuously throughout the 120-day life-span of the red cell. There is a two- to threefold increase in hemoglobin AIc in the red cells of patients with diabetes mellitus. By providing an integrated measurement of blood glucose, hemoglobin AIc is useful in assessing the degree of diabetic control. Furthermore, this hemoglobin is a useful model of nonenzymatic glycosylation of other proteins that may be involved in the long-term complications of the disease.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bunn, H F -- Gabbay, K H -- Gallop, P M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Apr 7;200(4337):21-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/635569" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: It has been proposed that nitrilotriacetic acid be substituted for trisodium polyphosphates in detergents as a way to reduce the rate of eutrophication in the Great Lake Basin. The reaction of nitrilotriacetic acid with chlorine-containing solutions produces a hitherto unknown degradation production, N-formyliminodiacetic acid, in high yield. The toxicological and environmental implications of this reaction are unclear.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Spanggord, R J -- Tyson, C A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Jun 8;204(4397):1081-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/36659" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Polypeptide analogs of the known members of the corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) family were synthesized and tested in vitro and in vivo for enhanced potency or competitive antagonism. Predictive methods and physicochemical measurements had suggested an internal secondary alpha-helical conformation spanning about 25 residues for at least three members of the CRF family. Maximization of alpha-helix-forming potential by amino acid substitutions from the native known sequences (rat/human and ovine CRF, sauvagine, and carp and sucker urotensin 1) led to the synthesis of an analog that was found to be more than twice as potent as either of the parent peptides in vitro. In contrast, certain amino-terminally shortened fragments, such as alpha-helical CRF or ovine CRF residues 8 to 41, 9 to 41, and 10 to 41, were found to be competitive inhibitors in vitro. Selected antagonists were examined and also found to be active in vivo.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rivier, J -- Rivier, C -- Vale, W -- AA03504/AA/NIAAA NIH HHS/ -- AM20917/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- AM26741/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 May 25;224(4651):889-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6326264" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La cinétique de la formation et de la transformation des précipités de phosphate de calcium, obtenus en mélangeant de volumes égaux de solutions à 6×10−3 M de calcium total et/ou phosphate total est étudiée à 25°C. Les solutions de phosphate sont préajustées à un pH de 7.4. Les changements de pH et de turbidité des solutions sont suivis simultanément en fonction du temps. Les précipités sont isolés à des intervalles de temps variables et caractérisés par diverses méthodes physico-chimiques. Initialement un précipité avec un rapport molaire Ca/P de 1.5, amorphe aux rayons X et en diffraction électronique, est formé. Le spectre IR indique la présence de PO 4 3− et de HPO 4 2− . Après une période métastable, on observe la précipitation d'un matériel cristallin dans ou sur la phase amorphe. Vingt quatre heures après préparation de l'échantillon les précipités présentent surtout les caractères du phosphate octocalcique.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Die Kinetik der Bildung und Transformation von Calciumphosphat-Niederschlägen wurde bei 25°C untersucht. Es wurden dazu gleiche Volumen von Lösungen gemischt, bei einer Konzentration von 6×10−3M totales Calcium und/oder totales Phosphat. Die Phosphatlösungen wurden zuerst auf pH 7,4 eingestellt. Veränderungen des pH und Trübung der Lösungen wurden gleichzeitig als eine Funktion der Zeit aufgezeichnet. Niederschläge wurden in verschiedenen Zeitintervallen isoliert und mit verschiedenen physiko-chemischen Methoden charakterisiert. Am Anfang wurde ein Niederschlag mit einem molaren Ca/P-Verhältnis von 1,5, im Röntgenbild und in der Elektronendiffraktion amorph, gebildet. Infrarotspektren deuteten die Anwesenheit von PO 4 3− - und HPO 4 2− -Ionen an. Nach einer metastabilen Periode erfolgte ein Niederschlag aus kristallinem Material innerhalb oder auf der amorphen Substanz. 24 Std nach der Herstellung der Proben zeigten die Niederschläge in der Hauptsache die Charakteristiken von Octocalciumphosphat.
    Notes: Abstract The kinetics of the formation and transformation of calcium phosphate precipitates obtained by mixing equal volumes of solutions, 6×10−3 M in total calcium and/or total phosphate was investigated at 25°. The phosphate solutions were preadjusted to pH 7.4. Changes of the pH and turbidity of the solutions were followed simultaneously as a function of time. Precipitates were isolated at various time intervals and characterized by different physicochemical methods. Initially a precipitate with a molar Ca/P ratio of 1.5, amorphous to X-ray and electron diffraction was formed. IR spectra indicated the presence of PO 4 3− and HPO 4 2− ions. After a period of metastability, precipitation of a crystalline material within or upon the amorphous matter occurred. Twenty four hours after sample preparation the precipitates showed mainly the characteristics of octacalcium phosphate.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of disodium ethane-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonate (EHDP) on bone and serum chemistry were investigated in adult rabbits. EHDP was administered by subcutaneous injection at doses of 0.25, 2.5 and 10 mg/kg body weight/day for of 28 days. Blood samples were obtained weekly from each rabbit and serum levels of total calcium, ionized calcium, inorganic phosphate and alkaline phosphatase were determined. At the end of the treatment period all rabbits were sacrificed and the tibiae removed for chemical analysis and histological evaluation. The effect of EHDP administration on serum chemistry was both dose- and time-related. The highest of the three doses, 10 mg/kg/day, resulted in a time-related decrease in total serum calcium. This dose also caused a rapid but transient reduction in serum ionized calcium. The effect of EHDP on serum inorganic phosphate was biphasic. Administration of 2.5 mg/kg/day resulted in a time-related elevation in this parameter, whereas the 10 mg/kg/day dose resulted in a time-related hypophosphatemic response. There were no significant drug-related changes in tibial fat-free dry weight, ash weight, total calcium or total phosphorus values. However, administration of 2.5 and 10 mg/kg/day EHDP resulted in increased osteoid tissue as measured histologically. These results are compared with data from other EHDP studies, and discussed in relation to the maturity and growth-state of the experimental animals.

    Notes: Summary A method is described for the isolation and purification of a sulphated glycopeptide from human supragingival calculus. The compound was isolated after using EDTA treatment, 2 M CaCl2 extraction, proteolytic digestion, ethanol precipitation, and finally purified by DEAE cellulose chromatography. It migrated as a single component on cellulose acetate electrophoresis, and chemical and infrared spectral analysis showed the presence of covalently attached sulphate groups. The sulphated glycopeptide was distinguished from being a sulphated glycosaminoglycan.

    Notes: Abstract  We examined the utility of otolith minor and trace element chemistry, assayed with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), as a means of delineating population structure in the Nassau grouper (Epinephelus striatus). We characterized the elemental composition of otoliths collected in 1993 from three locations in Exuma Sound, Bahamas and from Glover Reef, Belize in 1995. A single location in Exuma Sound was sampled in 1994 to test temporal variability in otolith composition. Five elements (Ca, Zn, Sr, Ba and Pb) were routinely detected, at levels significantly above background, by solution-based ICP-MS. Results from analysis of variance of elemental data, expressed as a ratio to Ca, indicated that there were no significant differences among the Exuma locations for any element, but significant variability was found between Glover Reef and the pooled Exuma localities for Zn/Ca, Sr/Ca and Ba/Ca ratios. Significant inter-annual differences at one Exuma Sound location was restricted to Ba/Ca ratios. Discriminant function analysis correctly classified 86% and 95% of the Belize and pooled Exuma sites, respectively. Otoliths from Belize were characterized by low Zn/Ca and high Ba/Ca and Pb/Ca ratios compared to otoliths from fish collected in Exuma Sound. Although differences in Ba levels may be related to upwelling at Glover Reef, more data are needed to definitely link otolith composition with regional differences in water chemistry.

    Notes: Summary The study of interstellar molecules broadly includes two areas of interest. One area uses the unique ability of molecules to act as probes of the physical conditions in the cold, dense, visually opaque component of the interstellar medium. The physical properties of this and other components of the interstellar medium are summarized. The other area deals with the chemistry of interstellar molecules, recent aspects of which are emphasized in this review. Gas-phase chemistry, shock chemistry, and grain surface chemistry are discussed in the context of recent observations. No present observations suggest that surface reactions are relevant, but neither can they be ruled out. Ion-molecule reactions are clearly operative, at least for the simpler species. Chemical isotope fractionation is reviewed, andd it is concluded that the complexities of the chemistry allow no cosmological conclusions to be drawn from observations of deuterium in interstellar molecules, while the presence of13C in interstellar molecules permits an estimate of the12C/13C ratio which is consistent with the current concepts of the nucleosynthesis history of the Galaxy. Possible connections between interstellar molecules and the early molecular history of the solar system are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract An assessment is made of the relative contribution of certain classes of energetic particle precipitation to the chemical composition of the middle atmosphere with emphasis placed on the production of odd nitrogen and odd hydrogen species and their subsequent role in the catalytic removal of ozone. Galactic cosmic radiation is an important source of odd nitrogen in the lower stratosphere but since the peak energy deposition occurs below the region where catalytic removal of O3 is most effective, it is questionable whether this mechanism is important in the overall terrestrial ozone budget. The precipitation of energetic solar protons can periodically produce dramatic enhancement in upper stratospheric NO. The long residence time of NO in this region of the atmosphere, where catalytic interaction with O3 is also most effective, mandates that this mechanism be included in future modelling of the global distribution of O3. Throughout the mesosphere the precipitation of energetic electrons from the outer radiation belt (60°≲Λ≲70°) can sporadically act as a major local source of odd hydrogen and odd nitrogen leading to observable O3 depletion. Future satellite studies should be directed at simultaneously measuring the precipitation flux and the concomitant atmosphere modification, and these results should be employed to develop more sophisticated models of this important coupling.

Well-crystallized hydroxyapatite has been produced and characterized. Small variations in unit cell parameters dependent on temperature of synthesis and bulk composition of the starting materials have been determined. Precise chemical conditions were required to obtain apatite as the only solid phase in equilibrium with solution. Equilibrium phase diagram results are compared with previous synthetic investigations.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Une concentration moyenne de 2.4×10−8 g U/g de cendre a été obtenue à partir de l'os humain normal. La microdistribution de l'uranium dans l'os indique que cet élément est surtout limité à surface de l'endoste et, en particulier, aux surfaces de l'os lamellaire et aux parois des canaux de Havers, ouverts dans l'os corticol. Cette répartition suggère que l'uranium se présente sous une forme chimique impropre à son incorporation dans l'apatite osseux: il ne semble donc pas exister une distribution diffuse significative de l'uranium dans l'os.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Eine mittlere Konzentration von 2,4×10−8 g Uran/g Asche wurde in normalen menschlichen Knochen gefunden. Die Feinverteilung von Uran im Knochen zeigt, daß dieses Element hauptsächlich an der endostalen Oberfläche vorkommt, insbesondere an der Oberfläche des trabeculären Knochens und an den Wänden der offenen Haversschen Kanäle im kortikalen Knochen. Diese Verteilung läßt vermuten, daß Uran in einer chemischen Form vorliegt, welche sich für den Einbau in das Knochenapatit nicht eignet. Daraus folgt, daß keine signifikante diffuse Verteilung des Urans innerhalb des Knochens vorliegt.
    Notes: Abstract A mean concentration of 2.4×10−8 g U/g ash has been obtained for normal human bone The microdistribution of uranium in bone indicates that this element is mainly restricted to endosteal surfaces; in particular the surfaces of trabecular bone and the walls of open Haversian canals in cortical bone. This distribution suggests that uranium is present in a chemical form that is not acceptable for incorporation into bone apatite and consequently there does not appear to be a significant diffuse distribution of uranium throughout bone.

Une analyse microchimique est pratiquée pour le contenu et la composition en glycosaminoglycanes. 1. Entre la première semaine et la 4ème et 8ème semaine, un tissu conjonctif non-métachromatique se différencie en un cartilage métachromatique et la quantité de sulfate de chondroitine augmente de façon significative aux dépens des glycoprotéines. 2. Jusqu'à la 4ème semaine, la perte de substance est surtout comblée par de l'os néoformé: après cette période, la région est comblée au delà de la limite de la surface articulaire. 3. Le cartilage hyalin, ressemblant morphologiquement, autoradiographiquement et chimiquement au cartilage articulaire, en ce qui concerne la distribution en glycosaminoglycanes, constitute la surface articulaire de la perte de substance comblée dans un tiers des cas après 8 semaines. Le cartilage hyalin s'observe surtout dans les régions où de l'os néoformé a comblé la cavité médullaire. 4. Dans les deux tiers des cas, après 8 semaines, les surfaces articulaires des zones comblées comportent, non seulement du cartilage, mais aussi du tissu fibreux se formant essentiellement sur les parties latérales et dans les régions, où la cavité médullaire, fliant face, à la surface articulaire, n'a pas été comblée par du tissue osseux. La fraction glycoprotéique augmente par rapport à la fraction chondroitine sulfate. 5. Dans la majorité des cas, après 20 semaines, le cartilage néoformé subit des phénomènes dégénératifs, qui se traduisent par une diminution en chondroitine sulfate.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Bei ausgewachsenen Kaninchen wurde ein begrenzter, standardisierter, osteochondraler Defekt hervorgerufen, und das regenerierte Gewebe wurde histologisch und autoradiographisch durch Markierung in vitro mit35S-Sulfat und durch mikrochemische Bestimmung des Gehaltes und der Zusammensetzung der Glykosaminglykane untersucht. Die wichtigsten Befunde waren: 1. Zwischen 1 und 4–8 Wochen veränderte sich nichtmetachromatisches Bindegewebe zu metachromatisch gefärbtem Knorpel, und der Anteil an Chondroitin-Sulfat nahm auf Kosten der Glykoproteine signifikant zu. 2. Bis zu 4 Wochen war der Hauptteil des defekten Gebietes mit neugebildetem Knochen gefüllt; nach dieser Zeit lag dieser Bezirk oberhalb der Verknöcherungsgrenze in Richtung der Gelenkoberfläche. 3. Nach 8 Wochen bestand die Gelenkoberfläche des defekten Gebietes in einem Drittel der Fälle aus hyalinem Knorpel, der morphologisch, autoradiographisch und chemisch dem Gelenkknorpel in Bezug auf die Verteilung von Glykosaminoglykanen glich. Hyaliner Knorpel wurde hauptsächlich an Stellen beobachtet, wo neugebildeter Knochen die Markhöhle geschlossen hatte. 3. Nach 8 Wochen bestand die Gelenkoberfläche des defekten Gebietes in einem Drittel der Fälle aus hyalinem Knorpel, der morphologisch, autoradiographisch und chemisch dem Gelenkknorpel in Bezug auf die Verteilung von Glykosaminoglykanen glich. Hyaliner Knorpel wurde hauptsächlich an Stellen beobachtet, wo neugebildeter Knochen die Markhöhle geschlossen hatte. 4. Nach 8 Wochen bestanden Teile der Gelenkoberfläche des Defektes in zwei Dritteln der Fälle nicht nur aus Knorpel, sondern auch aus fibrösem Gewebe, welches vor allem in den seitlichen Teilen des Defektes und an Stellen vorlag, wo die Markhöhle gegenüber der Gelenkoberfläche nicht mit Knochengewebe verschlossen worden war. Die Glykoproteinfraktion nahm im Vergleich zur Chondroitin-Sulfatfraktion zu. 5. Nach 20 Wochen zeigten sich in den meisten Fällen bei neugebildetem Knorpel degenerative Veränderungen, welche durch eine gewisse Abnahme des Chondroitin-Sulfats wiedergegeben wurden.
    Notes: Abstract A limited, standardized osteochondral defect was created in adult rabbits and the regenerated tissue was examined histologically and autoradiographically after labellingin vitro with35S-sulphate, and microchemically for its content and composition of glycosaminoglycans. The principal findings were: 1. Between 1 week and 4 to 8 weeks, non-metachromatic connective tissue differentiated to metachromatically stained cartilage, and the proportion of the chondroitin sulphate increased significantly at the expense of the glycoproteins. 2. Up to 4 weeks, the major part of the defect area was filled with newly formed bone; after this time, the area lay above the level of the “tidemark”, towards the articular surface. 3. Hyaline cartilage with morphological, autoradiographic and chemical resemblance to the articular cartilage in terms of the distribution of glycosaminoglycans constituted the articular surface of the defect area in one-third of the cases at observation times after 8 weeks. Hyaline cartilage was observed mainly in areas where newly formed bone had closed the medullary cavity. 4. In two-thirds of the cases, after 8 weeks, parts of the articular surface of the defect consisted not only of cartilage but also of fibrous tissue, occurring mainly in the lateral parts of the defect and in areas where the medullary cavity facing the articular surface had not been sealed by bone tissue. The glycoprotein fraction increased relative to the chondroitin sulphate fraction. 5. In most cases after 20 weeks, newly-formed cartilage underwent degenerative changes, which were reflected in some reduction of the chondroitin sulphate.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des études histologiques antérieures ont montré que le follicle pileux est particulièrement susceptible de se calcifier, lorsque la peau de rats hypercalcémiques est lésée. Des analyses chimiques et par diffraction aux rayons X du follicule ont confirmé ce résultat. — En se basant sur l'augmentation du calcium et du phosphore, les calcifications débutent dans le tissue folliculaire 6–12 h après une blessure d'intensité moyenne de la peau de rats, ayant reçu du dihydrotachysterol (DHT), et 24–48 h après une blessure similaire chez des rats non injectés. Les diagrammes de diffraction aux rayons X sont diffus. Trois heures après la blessure, on note une augmentation du calcium du tissu folliculaire qui ne semble pas en rapport avec le DHT qui traduit probablement une liaison de calcium plutôt qu'un dépot minéral.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Frühere histologische Untersuchungen haben gezeigt, daß der Haarfollikel besonders anfällig für Verkalkungen ist, wenn die Haut von hypercalcämischen Ratten verletzt wird. Dieses Resultat wurde nun durch direkte chemische Bestimmungen und Röntgendiffraktions-analysen von Follikelgewebe bestätigt. Aufgrund der erhöhten Calcium- und Phosphatwerte kann gesagt werden, daß nach einer leichten Quetschung der Haut von Ratten, die mit Dihydrotachysterol (DHT) behandelt wurden, im Haarfollikelgewebe nach 6–12 Std Mineral-ablagerungen stattfanden, wogegen Kontrollratten mit der gleichen leichten Hautverletzung diese Ablagerungen erst nach 24–48 Std zeigten. Röntgendiffraktionsanalysen ergaben ein diffuses Apatit-Muster. Innerhalb 3 Std nach der Verletzung wurde ein Anstieg des Calcium-gehaltes im Follikelgewebe beobachtet, der nicht im Zusammenhang mit der DHT-Behandlung stand, also nicht eine Mineralablagerung, sondern eher eine Bindung von Calcium widerspiegelte.
    Notes: Abstract Previous histological investigations have shown that the hair follicle is particularly susceptible to mineralization when the skin of hypercalcaemic rats is injured. Direct chemical and X-ray diffraction analyses of follicle tissue have now confirmed this finding. As judged by increases in both calcium and phosphorus, mineral deposits began to form in hair follicle tissue 6–12 h after a mild crush injury to the skin of rats dosed with dihydrotachysterol (DHT), and 24–48 h after a similar injury to the skin of non-dosed rats. X-ray diffraction gave a diffuse apatite pattern. Within 3 h of injury there was a rise in the calcium content of follicle tissue which was not related to DHT-dosing and which was probably a reflection of calcium binding rather than mineral deposition.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Un programme d'ordinateur a été mis au point pour calculer les activités ioniques du calcium et l'orthophosphate dans un grand nombre de solutions. Dans le cas de solutions synthétiques, les calculs sont vérifiés en comparant les valeurs de pH, obtenues par ordinateur, avec celles observées expérimentalement. Des essais de ce type, avec des solutions possèdant des concentrations de calcium et d'orthophosphate trouvées dans les liquides biologiques et à des valeurs de pH variant de 3.00 à 10.00, indiquent que le programme est adapté pour des applications biologiques. Le programme n'est pas effectif pour des solutions, dans les lesquelles l'ion bromure est la source principale de la force ionique, sans doute, par manque d'équation étendue de Debye-Hückel dans ces circonstances. Aucune formation de complexe de phosphate de sodium n'a été notée à des concentrations biologiques normales.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Es wurde ein Computer-Programm ausgearbeitet, um die Ionenaktivitäten von Calcium und Orthophosphat in einer breiten Varietät von Lösungen zu berechnen. Die Berechnungen wurden bei synthetischen Lösungen durch Vergleiche zwischen den auf diese Weise errechneten pH-Werten und den experimentell gefundenen kontrolliert. Diese Art Kontrollen mit Calcium-und Orthophosphatkonzentrationen, wie sie in biologischen Flüssigkeiten gefunden werden, und mit pH-Werten zwischen 3,0 und 10,0 wies darauf hin, daß das Programm für biologische Anwendungen geeignet war. Das Programm konnte nicht benützt werden für solche Lösungen, bei welchen hauptsächlich das Bromidion zur Einstellung der Ionenstärke verwendet wurde, vermutlich weil die erweiterte Debye-Hückel-Gleichung unter diesen Umständen nicht anwendbar ist. Die Bildung eines Natriumphosphat-Komplexes unter normalen biologischen Konzentrationen konnte nicht nachgewiesen werden.
    Notes: Abstract A computer program has been designed to calculate the ionic activities of calcium and orthophosphate in a wide variety of solutions. In the case of synthetic solutions the calculations were checked by comparing the computed pH values with those observed experimentally. Tests of this type with solutions having the concentrations of calcium and orthophosphate found in biological fluids and with pH values ranging from pH 3.0–10.0 indicated that the program was suitable for biological applications. The program was not effective for solutions in which the bromide ion was a principal source of ionic strength probably because of the failure of the extended Debye-Hückel equation under those circumstances. No evidence for the formation of any sodium phosphate complex at normal biological concentrations could be found.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des échantillons non lavés de phosphate de calcium amorphe (ACP) contiennent une fraction labile, non remplaçable, riche en phosphate acide avec un rapport Ca/P faible: cette fraction est perdue de façon irréversible au cours du lavage. De l'ACP frais, précipité entre pH 6.6–10.6, varie dans un rapport molaire Ca/P de 1.18 à 1.50 et dans un rapport HPO 4 2− /P total de 33.0% à 10.1%. A pH 7.40, de l'ACP frais a un rapport molaire Ca/P de 1.36±0.02 et contient 22.8 (±2.2)% HPO 4 2− . Les résultats obtenus avec du précipité non lavé ne peuvent s'expliquer par du Ca2+ emprisonné et de l'HPO 4 2− ou du Na+, Cl− et CO 3 2− exogènes. Les phosphates de calcium amorphes constituent une classe de sels ayant des caractères chimiques variables et des propriétés physiques identiques, comparables au verre. Le CaHPO4·xH2O non cristallin peut être un ACP, surtout au cours des phases précoces de formation. A des pH physiologiques, l'ACP se transforme en petits cristaux applatis contenant de fortes quantités de phosphate acide facilement remplaçable. Le fait de laver la couche de surface produit un changement chimique dans les nouveaux cristaux: des cristaux non lavés donnent des diagrammes de diffraction d'apatite peu cristallins, ainsi que des spectres infra-rouges peu nets, intermédiaires entre des apatites et du phosphate octocalcique. Des explications structurales sont proposées et les compositions minérales amorphe/cristalline de l'os et du cartilage sont recalculées.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Ungewaschene Proben von amorphem Calciumphosphat (ACP) enthalten eine unersetzliche labile Fraktion, welche reich an saurem Phosphat ist und ein niederes Ca/P-Verhältnis hat und welche während des Waschprozesses unwiderruflich verloren geht. Natives ACP, welches im pH-Bereich 6,6–10,6 ausgefällt wurde, variierte im molaren Ca/P-Verhältnis zwischen 1,18 und 1,50 und in HPO 4 2− /totales P zwischen 33,0 und 10,1%. Bei pH 7,40 hatte natives ACP ein molares Ca/P-Verhältnis von 1,36±0,02 und enthielt 22,8 (±2,2)% HPO 4 2− . Die Werte beim ungewaschenen Niederschlag rühren weder von aus dem Überstand aufgenommenem Ca2+ und HPO2−, noch von außen kommendem Na+, Cl− und CO 3 2− her. Die amorphen Calciumphosphate werden als eine Klasse von Salzen erkannt, welche veränderliche chemische, aber identische glasartige physicochemische Eigenschaften haben. Nicht kristallines CaHPO4·xH2O kann auch ein ACP sein, besonders in den frühen Bildungsstadien. Bei physiologischem pH verwandelt sich ACP in kleine plattenförmige Kristalle, welche große Mengen von leicht ersetzbarem saurem Phosphat enthalten. Das Waschen dieser Oberflächenschicht erzeugte chemische Veränderungen in den resultierenden Kristallen; ungewaschene Kristalle zeigten ein Diffraktionsmuster, das nur schwach demjenigen des kristallinen Aspatites glich, aber ein schlecht aufgelöstes Infrarotspektrum, welches zwischen Apatit und Octocalciumphosphat war. Es werden strukturelle Erklärungen für alle diese Phenomena diskutiert, und revidierte amorph/kristalline Mineralzusammensetzungen von Knochen und Knorpel wurden neu berechnet.
    Notes: Abstract Unwashed samples of amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) contain an irreplaceable labile fraction, rich in acid phosphate and low in Ca/P ratio, which is irreversibly lost during the washing process. Native ACP precipitated in the pH range 6.6–10.6 varied in Ca/P molar ratio from 1.18 to 1.50 and in HPO 4 2− /total P from 33.0% to 10.1%. At pH 7.40, native ACP had a Ca/P molar ratio of 1.36±0.02 and contained 22.8 (±2.2)% HPO 4 2− . Unwashed precipitate data could not be attributed to either trapped supernatant Ca2+ and HPO 4 2− or extraneous Na+, Cl−, and CO 3 2− . The amorphous calcium phosphates are recognized as a class of salts having variable chemical but identical glass-like, physicochemical properties. Non-crystalline CaHPO4·xH2O may also be an ACP, especially during early formative stages. At physiological pH, ACP transforms to small platy crystals containing large amounts of readily-replaceable acid phosphate. Washing this surface layer produced chemical alterations in the resultant crystals; unwashed crystals had poorly-crystalline apatitic diffraction patterns but exhibited poorly-resolved infrared spectra intermediate between apatite and octacalcium phosphate. Structural explanations for all these phenomena are discussed, and revised bone and cartilage amorphous/crystalline mineral compositions have been re-calculated.

    Notes: Summary Cyanogen bromide (CNBr) peptides were prepared of the insoluble collagen of bovine dental cementum. Following chromatographic separation, the peptides were identified by their amino-acid composition. Type I collagen ([α1(I)]2α2) accounted for more than 90% of the organic matrix, while Type III collagen ([α1(III)]3) was present at a level of approximately 5%. Amino-acid analyses revealed that the CNBr peptides from α1(I) and α2 chains of cementum closely resembled the corresponding peptides from calf skin. The only systematic difference was a higher level of hydroxylation of prolyl and lysyl residues of the cementum peptides.

    Notes: Summary The calcium homeostatic mechanism was challenged in adult female rats by feeding them a calcium-deficient diet containing oxalate, and by subjecting them to pregnancy and lactation. The regimen caused a substantial weight loss, especially in those animals which reared their young well. Severe hypocalcaemia was observed in the lactating rats. Serum-P was slightly elevated. The content of hydroxyproline in serum was considerably elevated, reflecting the degree of calcium deprivation. Serum proteins were least influenced. The calcium depriving regimen reduced the growth of long bones, but did not stop it. The ash content of the bones was considerably reduced, the degree of reduction depended on the degree of calcium deprivation. Ash as percentage of total bone organ was reduced, but not to the same extent as total ash. Analyses of different parts of femur showed that the proximal and distal parts had lost more bone mineral than the diaphyseal shaft. The ash content of cortical bone tissue from the femur was estimated by a volumetric method. No differences were observed between test groups and controls, indicating that no measurable amounts of bone mineral had been removed from the walls of the vascular canals or by osteocytic osteolysis. Planimetric determinations on cross sections from femora disclosed that a great amount of bone had been removed from the endosteal surface of the diaphysis, while the periosteal surface demonstrated reduced bone apposition.

    Notes: Abstract Fluorescent components in bone and dentine were separated from alkaline hydrolysates of their matrices on Sephadex C25 CM cationic exchange columns. The fluorescence levels, and the excitation (λ max 330 nm) and emission (λ max 395 nm) spectra, were the same as those observed in the intact and gelatinised matrices. The fluorescence parameters were unaltered by the hydrolysis procedure. Gel filtration on Sephadex G. 10 columns further resolved the isolated material into two components with the same fluorescence and UV absorption properties. The fluorescence was independent of pH over the range 3.5–9.5. Dialysis and gel filtration studies on the gelatinised matrices indicated a firmly-bonded association of the fluorescent material with the collagen polypeptide chains.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Au cours de la phase inhabituelle de mue d'un isopode d'eau courante,Lirceuts brachyrus, la moitié postérieure de l'exosquelette est éliminée 24 heures avant la moitié antérieure. A ce stade, une reminéralisation se développe dans la partie postérieure alors que la partie antérieure est dans un stade de pré-mue. Le pourcentage de différence en calcium dans les deux moitiés à mi-mue et mue complète est respectivement de 22% (p〈0.01) et 33% (p〈0.01), indiquant une complexation du calcium pendant la mue. La rapidité de la reminéralisation est illustrée par le fait que le contenu minéral total double dans la partie postérieure entre la mi-mue et la mue totale et dans la partie antérieure entre la fin de la mue et un jour après. Le carbonate de calcium, sous forme de calcite, a pu être identifié par diffraction électronique de coupes fines des téguments.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Während der ungewöhnlichen Häutungssequenz des Frischwasser-IsopodenLirceus brachyurus (Harger) wird die hintere Hälfte des äußeren Skeletts 24 Std vor der vorderen Hälfte abgestoßen. In der halbgehäuteten Phase erfolgt Remineralisation im hinteren Teil, während der vordere Teil in einem Vorhäutungszustand ist. Der prozentuale Unterschied des Calciums in den zwei Hälften bei Halb- und Vollhäutungszustand ist 22% (p〈0,01) bzw. 33% (p〈0,01), was andeutet, daß Calcium während der Häutung abgesondert wird. Die Geschwindigkeit der Remineralisation erhellt aus der Tatsache, daß sich der Gesamtmineralgehalt im hinteren Teil zwischen Halt- und Vollhäutung, in der vorderen Hälfte jedoch zwischen Endhäutung und einem Tag nach der Häutung verdoppelt. Calciumcarbonat in kristalliner Calcitform wurde mittels Elektronendiffraktion von dünnen Hautschnitten nachgewiesen.
    Notes: Abstract During the unusual molt sequence of the fresh-water isopod,Lirceus brachyrus (Harger), the posterior half of the exoskeleton is shed 24 hours before the anterior half. At the half-molt stage, occurs in the posterior part while the anterior portion is in a pre-molt condition. The percentage difference in calcium in the two halves at half-molt and full-molt is22 (p〈0.01) and33 (p〈0.01) respectively, an indication that calcium is sequestered during The rapidity of remineralization is illustrated by the fact that the total mineral content doubles in the posterior part between half and full molt and in the anterior half between the end of molt and one day after ecdysis. Calcium carbonate in the calcite cystalline form was demonstrated by electron diffraction of thin sections of the integument.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Un échantillon minéral provenant de Burgess, Canada s'est révélé être un speciment exceptionnellement pur de fluoroapatite après analyse chimique et cristallographique. La composition globale de cet échantillon est la suivante: $$(Ca^2 )9.98(Sr^{2 + } ,Na^ + ,K^ + ,Mg^{2 + } )0.02(PO_4^{3 - } )5.98(HCO_3^ - ,CO_3^{2 - } )0.02(F^ - )2$$ . L'axe cristallographique C est de 6.865 A et l'axe a de 9.374 A. Des expériences d'échanges réalisés à l'aide de45Ca,32P et18F indiquent la présence de gros cristallites de surface spécifique de l'ordre de 1 m2/g. Il apparait que l'interprétation physique des processus d'échange ne nécessite pas l'existence de compartiments séparés, avec chacun son propre facteur cinétique, les échanges semblent être simplement liés à un changement exponentiel dans l'énergie libre de la réaction. Pour la réaction suivante: $$(Ca)_5 (PO_4 )_3 OH solide + (F^ - ) \rightleftarrows (Ca)_5 (PO_4 )_3 F solide + (OH^ - )$$ , la constante thermodynamique de 101.26 a été calculée, suggérant que le fluorapatite se forme toujours aux dépens de l'hydroxyapatite dans des conditions physiologiques. Cette transformation se continue en abaissant le pH.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Eine Mineralprobe aus Burgess, Kanada, erwies sich nach chemischer und kristallographischer Analyse als außergewöhnlich reines Fluorapatit. Die Gesamtzusammensetzung entspricht: $$(Ca^{2 + } )_{9,98} (Sr^{2 + } ,Na^ + ,K^ + ,Mg^{2 + } )_{0,02} (PO_4^{3 - } )_{5,98} (HCO_3^ - ,CO_3^{2 - } )_{0,02} (F^ - )_2 $$ . Die kristallographische c-Achse wurde bestimmt und ergab 6,865 Å, und die a-Achse ergab 9,374 Å. Austauschwerte, welche durch Anwendung von45Ca,32P und18F erhalten wurden, deuteten auf große Kristalliten mit einer spezifischen Oberfläche von ca. 1 m2/g. Die Befunde deuten darauf hin, daß für die physikalische Erklärung des Austauschvorganges keine separaten Kompartimente mit eigenen kinetischen Faktoren nötig sind, sondern daß der Austausch mit dem exponentiellen Wechsel in der freien Energie der Reaktion in einfacher Beziehung steht. Für die Reaktion $$(Ca)_5 (PO_4 )_3 OH_{in fester Form} + (F^ - ) \rightleftarrows (Ca)_5 (PO_4 )_3 F_{in fester Form} + (OH^ - )$$ wurde als thermodynamische Konstante 101,26 errechnet, was darauf deutet, daß unter physiologischen Bedingungen immer Fluorapatit auf Kosten von Hydroxyapatit entsteht. Diese Umwandlung wird erhöht, wenn das pH erniedrigt wird.
    Notes: Abstract A mineral specimen from Burgess, Canada, proved upon chemical and crystallographic analyses to be an exceptionally pure sample of fluorapatite. The over-all composition corresponds to $$(Ca^{2 + } )_{9.98} (Sr^{2 + } ,Na^ + ,K^ + ,Mg^{2 + } )_{0.02} (PO_4^{3 - } )_{5.98} (HCO_3^ - ,CO_3^{2 - } )_{0.02} (F^ - )_2 $$ . The crystallographic c-axis was determined to be 6.865 Å, and the a-axis 9.374 A. Exchange data obtained by employing45Ca,32P, and18F indicate the presence of large crystallites with a specific surface of the order of 1 m2/g. It is indicated that the physical interpretation of the exchange process does not require the existence of separate departments, each with its own kinetic factor, but that the exchange may be simply related to the exponential change in the free energy of the reaction. For the reaction $$(Ca)_5 (PO_4 )_3 OH_{solid} + (F^ - ) \rightleftarrows (Ca)_5 (PO_4 )_3 F_{solid} + (OH^ - )$$ the thermodynamic constant has been calculated to be 101.26, implying that fluorapatite always will form at the expense of hydroxyapatite under physiologic conditions. This transformation will be furthered by lowering the pH.

    Notes: Summary The bone resorptive factor and amphipathic antigen (AcA) previously identified by us in preparations fromActinomyces viscosus have been partially purified, characterized chemically, and compared. They elute at the same location on chromatography with Ac 22. The fatty acid composition of AcA and the bone resorptive factor is the same. Some differences in carbohydrate composition are observed. TheActinomyces factor does not affect calcium influx or cyclic AMP in isolated bone cells. Therefore it is concluded that AcA stimulates resorption either by gaining entrance into bone cells or by way of a yet undetermined second messenger.

Depletions of gas-phase molecules, grain mantle evaporation, and shock interactions actively drive chemical processes in different regions around young stars. We present results for two systems, IRAS 05338-0624 and NGC 1333 IRAS 4, to illustrate the behavior found and to examine the physical processes at work.

    Notes: Abstract We study the interactions of chemistry and turbulent mixing of tracersin the convective boundary layer with a second-order closure model,including higher order chemistry terms. In order to limit the number of predictive equations we prescribe the profiles for ¯w¯Θ, ¯w¯θ ¯θ and the lengthscale l. However, for model validation we treat temperature and humidity asinert tracers, and compare the results with profiles observed during theAir Mass Transformation Experiment, and with similarity expressions for thesurface layer. We find good agreement of the mean profiles, but the (co-)variances are slightly underpredicted. Furthermore, the model usesdiagnostic equations expressing third moments of concentration in terms ofsecond moments and their vertical derivatives. They are compared withlarge-eddy model results, showing good agreement and, therefore, thesimplifications are justified. The model is applied to the transport of two gases subject to one bimolecular reaction. The importance of concentration correlations on themean transformation rate is studied. For two gases diffusing in oppositedirections we find for moderate and fast chemistry a 50% and90% decreased transformation rate due to the negatively correlatedconcentrations. These values are similar to large-eddy results of Schumannand Sykes et al. For two bottom-up tracers we find that the covariance ofboth reactive species is either positive or negative, increasing or reducingthe effective transformation rate depending on the Damköhler number (the ratio of the turbulent and the chemistry timescale). A significantdirect influence of chemistry on the flux divergence is found in bothcases. According to the model the effective transport to mid-levels of theboundary layer is increased when two reactive tracers diffuse in oppositedirections, and decreased in the case of two bottom-up tracers.

    Notes: Summary The fat globules of the cream fractions of human and rat milk were stained with ruthenium red. Under the electron microscope, discrete granules and an amorphous coat of lesser density are seen at the surface of the milk fat globules. Since ruthenium red binds anionic groups selectively, it is probable that the granules containe the greatest concentration of these groups. The cream fraction of rat milk contains hexoses, hexosamines, methylpentoses and sialic acid. Methylpentoses and hexosamines are significantly enriched in the cream fraction. It is concluded that the finding of a surface coat in milk fat globules is in keeping with the Bargmann-Knoop model and suggests a distinct mechanism for carrying certain complex carbohydrates in milk. The role of the negative charges at the outer surface of the membrane coat in maintaining fat globules in suspension and in binding certain cations such as calcium is suggested.

    Notes: Abstract Chemistry has evolved from a science dominated by mathematics into a science highly dependent on spatial-visual intelligence. Yet the chemical content of introductory courses remains taught essentially the same as 40–50 years ago. Chemistry, today, is recognized by chemists as the molecular science. Yet, school chemistry is alienated from that perception. Thanks to the computer, young people are more comfortable with visual imaging than their instructors were at the same age. Thus the time is rife to reinvigorate chemistry education by means of the visual-spatial approach, an approach wholly in conformance with the way modern chemistry is thought about and practiced.

We consider the effects of C-shocks on the composition of molecular clouds, for a range of values of the pre-shock gas density and magnetic induction. The time required to re-establish equilibrium in the post-shock gas depends on the initial conditions and can become very large. The significance of the two known chemical phases of dark clouds and of bistability is considered in this context.

    Notes: Abstract We have assessed the role of diffusion in determining chemical abundances in molecular interface regions. Chemical models have been developed which include the appropriate diffusion terms and that are appropriate to a narrow diffusion region (∼0.01pc) that may exist at the interface between a dark core and a hot, shocked T-Tauri wind. We have assumed pressure balance throughout and have calculated the chemical abundances as functions of time and position through the interface. The results show that significant enhancements of detectable molecules/transitions are expected (e.g. CO J=6→5, OH and CH). Using a realistic value of the diffusion coefficient a diffusive region of dimension 0.01pc may be established within about 104 years. In general it seems likely that diffusion processes are highly significant on these and smaller lengthscales.

    Description / Table of Contents: Der Einfluß von 3-Phenylenbismaleimid auf die Werkstoffeigenschaften von CaCO3 gefüllten Polypropylen-Verbundstoffen wurde untersucht. Die Verarbeitungstemperatur spielte eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Herstellung der Verbundwerkstoffe. Bei Verarbeitungstemperaturen oberhalb der Bismaleimid-Zersetzungstemperatur zeigte die Bismaleimid-Verbindung einen positiven Effekt. Die chemische Zusammensetzung der modifizierten Verbunde wurde mit den mechanischen Eigenschaften korreliert. Basierend auf ESCA-Analysen werden Wechselwirkungen zwischen dem Polymeren und CaCO, diskutiert.
    Notes: The effect of 3-phenylene bismaleimide on the mechanical performance of an inorganic filler-based polypropylene composite was studied. The selection of processing temperature played a significant role in the preparation of such composites. A positive effect of the bismaleimide compound was obtained for a processing temperature above the decomposition temperature of bismaleimide. The chemical composition of the modified composite was correlated to its mechanical strength by experimentation involving a rotatable design. An interaction between polymer and CaCO3 has been proposed based on ESCA analysis.

    Description / Table of Contents: Chemische und mechanische Eigenschaften von Zwischenprodukten der PE-Schrumpfschlauch-Produktion wurden bei unterschiedlichen Compound-Zusammensetzungen (PE, ein aromatisches Amin oder Phenolderivat als Antioxidans und in einigen Fällen ein Flammschutzmittel und/oder eine Elastomerkomponente) untersucht.Während der Herstellung, besonders während der durch Elektronenstrahlung initiierten Vernetzung, nimmt die thermooxidative Stabilität des Materials gegenüber der des compoundierten Granulats ab. Das aromatische Amin scheint bei gleicher Zusammensetzung das wirksamere und strahlungsbeständigere Antioxidans im Vergleich zum Phenolderivat zu sein. Die Oxidationsstabilität der hergestellten Schrumpfschläuche wird nicht von der Qualität des eingesetzten PE-Ausgangsgranulats beeinflußt.Durch die Alterung des Materials ändern sich die mechanischen Eigenschaften geringfügig. Die Elastomerzugabe bewirkt keine Änderung von Zugfestigkeit und Reißdehnung. Die Stabilität des Endprodukts ist bei weitem ausreichend, um den Spannungen, die beim Schrumpfen während des Gebrauchs auftreten, standzuhalten. Die gute Zugfestigkeit des Materials wird durch die Alterung ebenfalls nicht beeinträchtigt.Bei der Extrusion des Granulats tritt keine nennenswerte Änderung des Molekulargewichts bzw. der Molekulargewichtsverteilung auf. Durch die Bestrahlung wird das Material vernetzt und zu mehr als 50% unlöslich, und seine thermooxidativen Eigenschaften ändern sich deutlich gegenüber dem ursprünglichen PE und dem daraus compoundierten Material.
    Notes: Some chemical and mechanical properties of intermediate products obtained in the production of PE heat-shrinkable tubes were studied at different compositions of the material containing PE, antioxidant (aromatic amime or phenol) and, in some cases, flame retardant and/or an elastomer.In the course of the production phase, the thermooxidative stability decreases compared to that of compounded granulate. The greatest decrease is caused by irradiation. The aromatic amine seems to be a more effective antioxidant at similar compositions than the phenol derivative, and it shows a better resistance against irradiation. The oxidative stability of the finished shrinkable tubes is not affected by the quality of commercial granulate (initial polyethylene).Mechanical properties change slightly upon ageing, and the introduction of the elastomer did not alter the tensile strength and elongation at break. The remaining stability of the end product was still high enough to bear the stress of shrinking in use, and the good tensile strength of the material did not decrease upon thermal ageing either.In the extrusion of the granulated compound no significant change in the distribution and average molecular weight took place. Irradiation produced more than 50% insoluble fraction and the thermooxidative properties of the crosslinked sample changed significantly compared to the original PE and to the compound prepared from it.

    Description / Table of Contents: In the present work oxygen index (OI) measurements and thermogravimetric analysis (TG) for a series of polyurethanes based on diols and isocyanate were conducted. It was found that a correlation exists between some of the thermal degradation parameters obtained from TG and OI-values. Analysis of experimental results confirms that the amount of mass loss at 250°C is directly proportional to the OI-value. It was also found that the logarithmic temperatures of maximal decomposition rates are directly proportional to the OI-values.
    Notes: In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden für eine Serie von Polyurethanen auf der Basis von Diol und Isocyanat der Sauerstoffindex (SI) gemessen und die thermische Zersetzung mittels thermogravimetrischer Analyse (TG) untersucht. Dabei wurde ein Zusammenhang zwischen einigen Parametern der thermischen Zersetzung und den SI-Werten gefunden. Die Auswertung der experimentellen Ergebnisse zeigte, daß die Höhe des Massenverlustes bei 250°C und die SI-Werte direkt proportional zueinander sind. Derselbe Zusammenhang besteht auch zwischen dem Logarithmus der Temperatur bei der maximalen Zersetzungsgeschwindigkeit und den SI-Werten.

    Description / Table of Contents: Methylen-4,4′-diphenyldiisocyanat und zwei unterschiedliche Bisoxazoline wurden für Kopplungsreaktionen in mit Carboxygruppen terminierten flüssigkristallinen Poly(ethylenterephthalat-co-oxybenzoat)en eingesetzt. Um definierte Bedingungen zu gewährleisten, erfolgte die Synthese von Copolyestern mit unterschiedlichen Carboxygruppenkonzentrationen. Die Bestimmung des Carboxygruppengehalts wird beschrieben.Es erfolgt ein Vergleich des Kopplungsverhaltens beider Arten von Kettenverlängerern. Es konnte nachgewiesen werde, daß die Bisoxazoline bedeutend schneller reagieren als das Diisocyanat. Durch einen geringen Überschuß and Bisoxazolin in der Reaktionsmischung konnte einer thermischen Schädigung vorgebeugt werden. Abhängig von der Menge an zugegebenem Koppler wurden bei den modifizierten Copolyestern Oxazolinendgruppen beobachtet. Außerdem werden mögliche Vernetzungsreaktionen und die thermische Stabilität diskutiert.
    Notes: Methylene-4,4′-diphenyldiisocyanate and two different bisoxazolines were used for coupling reactions in carboxy-terminated liquid crystalline poly(ethylene terephthalate-co-oxybenzoate). In order to guarantee defined conditions, copolyesters with different carboxylic group concentrations were synthesized. The determination of the carboxylic group content is described.The coupling behaviour of both types of chain extenders has been compared. It was evidenced that the bisoxazolines reacted significantly faster than the diisocyanate. A slight excess of bisoxazoline in the reaction mixture prevented thermomechanical degradation. Depending on the amount of coupling agent added, an oxazoline termination of the copolyester was observed. Additionally, probable crosslinking reactions and the thermal stability have been discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Der Einfluß von 3-Phenylenbismaleimid auf die Werkstoffeigenschaften von mit Talkum und Zeolith gefüllten Polypropylen-Verbundstoffen wurde untersucht. Durch geeignete Planung des Aufbaus kann die Produkteigenschaft optimiert werden. Die Kapazität zur Füllstoffaufnahme schwankt bei Polypropylen je nach Art des Füllstoffs. Ein hochbelastbarer Verbundstoff kann aus einem geeignet modifizierten, mit Zeolith gefüllten Polypropylen hergestellt werden, auch wenn der Füllstoff in der Verbundmatrix dominiert. Als Ursache dieser Verstärkung wird eine verbesserte Wechselwirkung zwischen dem Polymeren und dem Füllstoff angenommen.
    Notes: The effect of 3-phenylene bismaleimide as a modifier for talc and zeolite-filled polypropylene composites has been studied. The usefulness of the experimental design to assure best product properties has also been illustrated. Polypropylene shows a variable degree of filling capacity depending on the type of filler. A high-strength composite can be prepared with suitably modified zeolite-filled polypropylene even if filler is the dominant phase in the composite matrix. An improved interfacial interaction between polypropylene and filler is proposed to be the reason for this improvement of strength.

    Description / Table of Contents: Single-component formulations of epoxy resins with reactive accelerators must be storable. The preparation of several blocked accelerators is described. The basicity of tertiary amines, which correlates with accelerating effects, as well as acidity and structure of polyphenols and modified novolacs influences the extend of blocking. The curing process was investigated by measurements of gel time and viscosity.

Daher wurden Versuche unternommen, Beschleuniger auf Basis von tertiären Aminen mit modifizierten Phenolnovolaken zu blockieren. Das Ausmaß der Blockierung ist sowohl von der Basizität der Amine, die mit der beschleunigenden Wirkung korreliert, als auch von der Acidität und dem strukturellen Aufbau der modifizierten Phenole abhängig. Die Bewertung der Härtungseigenschaften erfolgte über Gelzeitbestimmungen und Viskositätsmessungen.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Bruchzähigkeit von Phenolphthalein-Poly(etherketon) bei 190°C wurde mit zwei verschiedenen Methoden bestimmt, der konventionellen Rißwachstumsmethode und der „stress whitening zone“-Methode. Die gute Übereinstimmung der Ergebnisse zeigt, daß letztere Methode zur Bestimmung der Rißinitiierung einiger Polymerer herangezogen werden kann, für die das „blunting line concept“ nicht geeeignet ist.
    Notes: Fracture toughness values of phenolphthalein poly(ether ketone) (PEK-C) at 190°C were determined by two different methods, i.e. the conventional crack growth method and the crack stress whitening zone method, which show consistent results. This indicates that the crack stress whitening zone method can be used to determine the crack initiation of some polymers for which the blunting line concept is unsuitable.

Der Polymerisationsumsatz war unabhängig von den verwendeten Ultraschallbedingungen (800 W, 35 kHz). Depolymerisationsversuche mit Ultraschall bei 20°C zeigten, daß Kettenabbruch im wesentlichen durch Disproportionierung stattfindet; dabei werden Molekulargewichte nicht unter ca. 500000 erreicht.
    Notes: The effect of ultrasound in ethyl methacrylate polymerization and depolymerization and the chain termination mechanism for ethyl methacrylate have been studied. Polymerization conversion at 60°C did not depend on energy (80 W) and frequency (35 kHz) of ultrasound applied. In ultrasound depolymerization studies at 20°C the governing termination mechanism was found to be disproportionation and the lower limiting molecular weight was Mn = 500 000.

    Description / Table of Contents: The copolymerization of acrylonitrile with maleic anhydride was investigated to synthesize acylic reactive polymers for manufacture of membranes that serve as support for covalent enzyme immobilization. The free-radical copolymer synthesis was carried out in solution (N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethylacetamide (DMAC), γ-butyrolactone, ethylene carbonate), by precipitation polymerization (dioxane) as well as bulk polymerization. The polymers were characterized using IR spectroscopy, elementary analysis, NMR spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography, viscosity measurements, osmometry and potentiometry.The kinetic parameters were followed by dilatometric measurements up to high conversions. The anhydride content in the monomer mixtures showed a significant influence on the rate of polymerization and the molecular weight. With raised concentration of anhydride the polymerization rate and molecular weights decreased. Film forming polymers (M̄η 〉 30 000 g/mol) can be obtained by all copolymerization procedures with exception of solution polymerization in DMF and DMAC, respectively. The content of maleic anhydride in the membrane polymers did not exceed 5 mol-%, even though the maleic anhydride content in the monomer mixtures was raised up to the equimolar mixture. Nevertheless, such low maleic anhydride content of prepared membranes is enough for successful enzyme immobilization with amyloglucosidase (copolymer was prepared in γ-butyrolactone, M̄η = 49 000 g/mol, cPMSA = 0,3 mol-%).
    Notes: Die Copolymerisation des Acrylnitrils mit Maleinsäureanhydrid (MSA) wurde mit dem Ziel untersucht, acylfunktionalisierte Reaktivpolymere mit Filmbildungseigenschaften herzustellen, um diese in der Anwendung als Membran für kovalente Enzymfixierungen zu nutzen. Die radikalinitiierte Synthese der Copolymeren wurde in Lösung (Dimethylformamid (DMF), Dimethylacetamid (DMAC), γ-Butyrolacton, Ethylencarbonat), durch Fällungscopolymerisation (Dioxan) sowie in Substanz durchgeführt.Die Polymercharakterisierung erfolgte durch IR-Spektroskopie, Elementaranalyse, Kernresonanzspektroskopie, Gelpermeationschromatographie, Viskosimetrie, Osmometrie und Potentiometrie.Die Kinetik wurde durch dilatometrische Untersuchungen bis zu hohen Umsätzen verfolgt. Danach weist der Anhydridgehalt im Monomergemisch einen signifikanten Einfluß auf die Bruttopolymerisationsgeschwindigkeit und die Molmasse der Polymeren auf. Mit steigendem Anhydridanteil wird die Bruttopolymerisationsgeschwindigkeit herabgesetzt und eine Verringerung der Molmasse herbeigeführt. Die Copolymerisation von Acrylnitril und Maleinsäureanhydrid führt mit Ausnahme der Lösungspolymerisation in DMF bzw. DMAC zu Polymeren mit Molmassen oberhalb 30 000 g/mol, was ihre Anwendung als Membran ermöglicht. Die Einbaurate an Maleinsäureanhydrid in den Membranpolymeren ist bis einschließlich einer äquimolaren Zusammensetzung des Monomergemischs nicht größer als 5 mol-%. Derartig niedrige MSA-Reaktivgruppenanteile erweisen sich jedoch als ausreichend, um an einer aus einem Lösungspolymerisat (γ-Butyrolacton, M̄η = 49 000 g/mol, cPMSA = 0,3 mol-%) formierten Membran eine Enzymimmobilisierung mit Amyloglucosidase nachzuweisen.

    Description / Table of Contents: Thermotrop flüssigkristalline Copolyester aus Vanillinsäure (V), 4-Hydroxybenzoesäure (B) und Polyethylenterephthalat (E) wurden mittels 1H-NMR-Spektroskopie und Gelpermeationschromatographie (GPC) untersucht. Die neun möglichen Diaden konnten detektiert und zugeordnet werden. Die Abfolge der Grundeinheiten der V/B/E-Copolyester ändert sich mit zunehmendem B-Anteil von statistischer Verteilung zur Blockbildung und ist außerdem geringfügig von der Katalysatorkonzentration und der Polykondensationsdauer abhängig. Die GPC-Ergebnisse deuten darauf hin, daß die V/B/E-Copolyester engere Molekulargewichtsverteilungen aufweisen als die B/E-Copolyester. Mit von 0 bis 5 mol-% steigendem V-Anteil verengt sich die Molekulargewichtsverteilung. Die Gelpermeationschromatogramme der meisten V/B/E-Copolyester weisen im Unterschied zu den Einzelsignalen der B/E-Copolyester Dublett-Peaks auf.
    Notes: Thermotropic liquid-crystalline copolyesters made from vanillic acid (V), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (B) and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (E) were examined by 1H-NMR and GPC investigations. Nine possible diads could be identified and assigned. The sequence distribution of V/B/E copolyesters tends to change from random to block with an increase of B content in the copolyesters. The sequence distribution also varies slightly with catalyst concentration and polycondensation time. GPC results suggest that the V/B/E copolyesters have narrower molecular weight distribution (MWD) than B/E copolyesters. The MWD of the copolyesters narrows gradually with increasing V content from zero to 5 mol-%. The GPC chromatograms of the most V/B/E copolyesters show double peaks, which is different from the single peak of the GPC chromatograms of the B/E copolyesters.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Strahlungsbeständigkeit von vorbestrahltem Polypropylen mit 2,5 Gew.-% Ethylenanteil wurde mitr einem Copolymeren aus Polypropylen und einem nukleierenden Agens im Hinblick auf die Strahlungssterilisation von medizinischen Geräten verglichen. Die Transparenz des Propylen-Ethylen-Copolymeren wurde durch die Vorbehandlung verbessert. Im Vergleich mit der ebenfalls verbesserten Transparenz des Copolymeren aus Polypropylen und dem nukleierenden Agens wurde durch die Vorbestrahlung die Strahlungsbeständigkeit während der Bestrahlung und bei der Lagerung des bestrahlten Materials verbessert. Dies wird auf die geringere Kristallinität des vorbestrahlten Polypropylens aufgrund von bei der Bestrahlung gebildeten Verzweigungen zurückgeführt.
    Notes: The radiation stability of the pre-irradiated copolymer of polypropylene containing 2.5 wt.-% ethylene units is compared with a copolymer of polypropylene with a nucleating agent with regard to radiation sterilization of medical devices. It is found that transparency property of the propylene-ethylene copolymer is improved through pre-irradiation processes. This finding was compared with the co-polypropylene with nucleating agent which also gives a better transparency property. In comparison, it is found that pre-irradiated copolymer exhibits better radiation stability during irradiation and during storage after irradiation. The radiation stability of the pre-irradiated copolymer is due to its lower crystallinity caused by the formation of branches during the pre-irradiation process.

    Description / Table of Contents: Polydiaryldiazosulfide wurden durch Grenzflächenpolykondensation aus aromatischen Bisdiazoniumionen und Benzol-1,3-dithiol erhalten. Auf diese Weise wurden Molekulargewichte Mn von 3400 bis 11700 erreicht (GPC).Die neue Polymerklasse zeichnet sich durch hohe Photolabilität und relativ geringe Thermostabilität aus. Mittels UV-Spektroskopie wurde die Photolyse von Modellver-bindungen und Polymeren verfolgt, wobei in nahezu allen Fällen ein Zerfall 1. Ordnung beobachtet wurde. Der photochemische Kettenabbau konnte durch GPC-Untersuchungen verfolgt werden. Die thermische Stabilität der polymeren Diazosulfide wurde durch DSC-Messungen untersucht.
    Notes: Poly(diaryl diazosulfide)s were synthesized from aromatic bisdiazonium ions and benzene-1,3-dithiol via interfacial polycondensation. Number-average molecular weights Mn in the range of 3400 to 11700 were determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC).The new polymer class is distinguished by high photosensitivity and low thermostability. First order kinetics during photolysis of nearly all polymers and model compounds under investigation was observed by means of UV spectroscopy. Polymer degradation upon irradiation was verified by GPC measurements. Thermal decay was followed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).

    Description / Table of Contents: Three different titration methods were proved with respect to accuracy, reproducibility and handling for the determination of maleic anhydride (MSA) content in acrylonitrile (AN) copolymers in form of poly(AN-co-MSA) and poly(AN-co-styrene-co-MSA). The comparison comprises (i) the combined method A/H characterized by the reaction of anhydride groups (AG) with aniline and titration of the formed monoacid with methanolic KOH (A) and the complete hydrolysis of AG and titration of acid groups (SG) with aqueous NaOH (H), (ii) method B based on the conversion of AG with n-butylamine (BA) and back-titration of unreacted amine with HClO4 in glacial acetic acid and (iii) method C consisting of the reaction of AG with p-chloroaniline (pCA) followed by Cl-determination after the Schöniger-decomposition. Whereas all mentioned methods are suitable for the determination of AG in the presence of initial SG, the combination of A/H additionally allows the simultaneous determination of AG and SG. In comparison with the other methods the combination of A/H is to be favoured due to the possibility to obtain additional information about SG and because of the better results in accuracy, reproducibility and handling. By means of FTIR spectroscopy the content of AG and SG was estimated qualitatively and a correlation between the spectroscopic and potentiometric data of AG was discovered.
    Notes: Zur Bestimmung des Maleinsäreanhydrid(MSA)-Gehaltes in Acrylnitril(AN)-Copolymeren des Typs Poly(AN-co-MSA) bzw. Poly(AN-co-Styrol-co-MSA) wurden drei verschiedene Titrationsmethoden hinsichtlich ihrer Richtigkeit, Reproduzierbarkeit sowie ihres Zeitaufwandes geprüft. Miteinander verglichen wurden (i) eine Methodenkombination A/H bestehend aus dem Teilschritt A, einer Umsetzung der Anhydridgruppen (AG) mit Anilin einschließlich der Titration der Monosäuregruppen mit methanolischer KOH, und dem Teilschritt H, einer vollständigen Hydrolyse der AG und Titration der Säuregruppen (SG) mit wäßriger NaOH, (ii) Methode B basierend auf der Reaktion der AG mit n-Butylamin (BA) und der Rücktitration des nicht umgesetzten Amins mit Perchlorsäure (HClO4) in Eisessig und (iii) Methode C, beruhend auf der Umsetzung der AG mit p-Chloranilin (pCA) und nachfolgender Chlorbestimmung durch Schöniger-Aufschluß. Während sich alle genannten Methoden prinzipiell für die AG-Bestimmung in Gegenwart initialer SG empfehlen, ist darüber hinaus über A/H eine simultane Bestimmung von AG und SG möglich. Wegen dieses zusätzlichen Informationsgewinns, ihrer besseren Reproduzierbarkeit, der erhöhten Richtigkeit sowie des geringeren zeitlichen und apparativen Aufwandes ist die Kombination A/H zu favorisieren. Mit Hilfe der FTIR-Spektroskopie wurde der Gehalt an AG und SG qualitativ verfolgt und eine Korrelation zwischen den Bandenintensitäten der AG und den potentiometrisch erhaltenen Werten gefunden.

    Description / Table of Contents: Propen und 1-Octen wurden mit dem syndiospezifischen Metallocen-Katalysator Me2C(Cp)(Flu)ZrCl2/MAO copolymerisiert. Es wurde ein hoher, statistischer Octeneinbau beobachtet. Niedrige Octenkonzentrationen beeinflußten die Aktivität des Katalysators nur wenig; Molekulargewicht, Kristallinität, E-Modul und Glastemperatur wurden dagegen mit ansteigendem Octengehalt erniedrigt. Blends aus ataktischem Oligopropen und syndiotaktischem Polypropen bzw. Poly(propen-co-octen) wurden aus einer Toluol-Lösung hergestellt. Diese Lösungsblends wurden mit einem Reaktorblend verglichen, der mit einem Hybrid-Katalysator bestehend aus einer Mischung von syndiospezifischem Me2C(Cp)(Flu)ZrCl2/MAO und unspezifischem Cp2ZrCl2/MAO hergestellt wurde. Das ataktische Oligopropen wirkte als Weichmacher, der E-Modul und Glastemperatur der Blends erniedrigte.
    Notes: Propene and 1-octene were copolymerized with the syndiospecific homogeneous metallocene catalyst Me2C(Cp)(Flu)ZrCl2/MAO. Large amounts of octene were incorporated randomly. While catalyst activity was not affected markedly by low octene content, molecular weight, crystallinity, Young's modulus, and glass transition temperature were reduced with increasing octene content. Blends of atactic oligopropene with syndiotactic polypropene and poly(propene-co-octene) were prepared from toluene solution and compared with a reactor blend prepared with a hybrid catalyst containing a mixture of syndiospecific Me2C(Cp)(Flu)ZrCl2/MAO and non-specific Cp2ZrCl2/MAO. Atactic oligopropene acted as plasticizer reducing Young's modulus and glass transition temperature of the blends.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die innere Oberfläche und das Hohlraumsystem von verschiedenartigen Celluloseregeneratfasern werden mit Röntgenkleinwinkelstreuung untersucht. Dabei wird gefunden, daß alle Fasern ein Hohlraumsystem von 0,01 bis 0,1% (Volumenanteil 10-4-10-3) aufweisen. Es zeigt sich jedoch, daß die Größe des Hohlraumsystems für die mechanischen Eigenschaften wenig Bedeutung hat. Es ist vielmehr die Gestalt der Hohlräume und ihre Orientierung, die hier wesentlich sind. Es wird gefunden, daß langgestreckte Hohlräume, vermutlich orientiert, für gute mechanische Eigenschaften verantwortlich sind. Damit können auch verbesserte textile Eigenschaften von Lyocellfasern des NMMO-Typs erklärt werden.
    Notes: Both the inner surface and the void system of different cellulose regenerate fibers are investigated with X-ray small angle scattering. Thereby it turns out that all fibers have a void system of 0.01 to 0.1% (volume fraction 10-4-10-3). However, the amount of the void system has little influence on the mechanical properties. Rather, it is the shape of the voids and their orientation which proves essential. It is found that elongated voids, probably well oriented, are responsible for superior mechanical properties. This explains also improved textile properties of lyocell fibers of the NMMO type.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die mit γ-Strahlen induzierte Polymerisation von Methacrylsäure (MA) und Acrylsäure (AA) mit Acrylamid (AAm) (M2) in Substanz wurde untersucht. Die nach Kelen-Tüdős berechneten Copolymerisationsparameter betragen r1 = 1.35 und r2 = 0.22 für MA-AAm bzw. r1 = 1.75 und r2 = 0.10 für AA-AAm. Die Polymerisationsgeschwindigkeit hängt sowohl von der Temperatur als auch von der Comonomerzusammensetzung ab. Die differentialkinetischen Kurven sind unimodal, was darauf hinweist, daß nur der Copolymerisationsprozeß abläuft. Ein zweites Maximum in diesen Kurven wird mit Vernetzung und der Bildung wasserunlöslicher Bestandteile erklärt. Die Copolymeren sind weiße Pulver; die wasserlöslichen Fraktionen sind im Gegensatz zu den wasserunlöslichen nicht giftig, aber als Immunmodulatoren weniger aktiv.
    Notes: A study was made of the γ-radiation-induced bulk copolymerization of the methacrylic acid-acrylamide (M2) (MA-AAm) and acrylic acid-acrylamide (M2) (AA-AAm) monomeric pairs. The copolymerization reactivity ratios deterined according to the Kelen-Tüdő method were: r1 = 1.35, r2 = 0.22 for the MA-AAm pair, and r1 = 1.75, r2 = 0.10 for the AA-AAm pair. It has been established that the polymerization rate depends both on the composition of the starting reaction mixture and on the reaction temperature. The differential kinetic curves obtained are unimodal ones, suggesting the occurrence of only one process, i.e. copolymerization. A second maximum in these curves, appearing at elevated temperature, is explained by crosslinking and formation of a water-insoluble fraction. The copolymers obtained are white powders; in contrast to their water-insoluble fractions, the water-soluble ones are not toxic but they are less active as immunomodulators.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Hydrolyse von Poly(ester-urethan-harnstoffen) (PURUs) wurde untersucht. Es handelt sich dabei um einen komplexen Vorgang, der die Analyse der Beziehung zwischen der Zusammensetzung der PURUs und ihrer Hydrolysebeständigkeit erschwert. Es wurde gefunden, daß die Hydrolysebeständigkeit mit Zunahme (i) der Polyol-Acidität, (ii) des Estergruppen-Gehaltes, (iii) der Beweglichkeit der Hauptketten und (iv) deren Hydrophilie abnimmt; die Molmasse des Polyols scheint keinen merklichen Einfluß darauf zu haben. Der negative Einfluß von Ethergruppen (obwohl hydrolysebeständiger als Estergruppen) ist möglicherweise auf eine Zunahme der Hauptkettenbeweglichkeit und den dadurch leichteren Zugang von Wassermolekülen zu Estergruppen zurückzuführen. Der positive Effekt von aromatischen Ringen in Polyolen kann einer erhöhten Steifigkeit der Hauptkette als auch einer ansteigenden Hydrolysebeständig-keit benachbarter Estergruppen durch Resonanzeffekte zugeschrieben werden. Insgesamt kann angenommen werden, daß die beschriebenen Effekte sich überlagern und gleichzeitig die resultierende Hydrolysebeständigkeit vorherbestimmen. Es sollte daher möglich sein, qualitative Vorhersagen bezüglich der Hydrolysebeständigkeit in Abhängigkeit von der Zusammensetzung der PURUs zu treffen.
    Notes: Hydrolysis of poly(ester urethane ureas) (PURUs) is a complex phenomenon which impedes the analysis of the relationships between their composition and hydrolytic stability. Hydrolytic stability of PURUs decreases due to rising (i) polyol acidity, (ii) content of ester groups, (iii) flexibility and (iv) hydrophilicity of the backbones; molar mass of polyols does not seem to have any appreciable effect on it. Negative influence of ether groups (which have better hydrolytic stability than ester groups) is probably linked to the increase in the backbone flexibility and, consequently, to easier access of water molecules to ester groups. Positive effect of aromatic rings in polyols can be ascribed to enhanced rigidity of the backbones as well as to increased hydrolytic stability of adjacent ester groups due to the resonance effect. It can be presumed that the mentioned effects will superpose and simultaneously predestine the resulting hydrolytic resistance. Considering the observed tendencies, it is possible to qualitatively predict the trends how the hydrolytic stability will respond to changes in PURUs composition.

    Description / Table of Contents: Eine neuartige lichtempfindliche Naphthochinondiazid-Verbindung (NQD) wurde aus 2,6-Bis(hydroxymethyl)-3,4-dimethylphenol und Toluoldiisocyanat synthetisiert und mit IR-, NMR- und Elementaranalyse identifiziert. Die Bleicheigenschaften unter Lichteinwirkung wurden mit UV-Spektrophotometrie bestimmt. Die Anwendung von NQD in der Photolithographie als positiver Photoresist sowie einer wäßrigen Lösung von NQD, Novolak, Cellosolve-Acetat und DMF als lichtempfindliches Material wurde untersucht. Das hergestellte NQD erwies sich als effektive Komponente in positiven Photoresists. Die optimalen Bedingungen der UV-Dosis, Schichtdicke und Resistzusammensetzung wurden abgeschätzt. Die Auflösung des positiven Photoresists wurde durch Rasterelektronenmikroskopie bestimmt. Außerdem wurde der Einfluß von UV-Dosis und -Wellenlänge, Einwirkungsdauer und Entwicklungszeit auf die Empfindlichkeit und die Auflösung des Photoresists untersucht.
    Notes: A new photosensitive naphthoquinonediazide (NQD) was synthesized from 2,6-bis-(hydroxymethyl)-3,4-dimethylphenol and toluene diisocyante. NQD was identified by using IR, NMR and elemental analyses. Photobleachable characteristics were evaluated by UV spectrophotometry. Applications of the NQD on the photolithography as a positive working photoresist were investigated. The aqueous solution of NQD, novolak, cellosolve acetate, and DMF was used as a photosensitive material. It was found that NQD synthesized in this investigation can be used as an effective component in a positive photoresist. Optimal conditions of the UV dose, coating thickness, and development of the resist system were estimated. Resolution of the positive resist was evaluated by SEM technique. Effects of UV dose, exposure time, development time, and exposure UV wave length on the sensitivity and resolution of the photoresist were investigated.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die radikalinduzierte Polymerisation von phenlysubstituierten 2-Methylen-1,3-dioxanen wurde untersucht. Es kann gezeigt werden, daß die grundlegende Polymerisationstendenz derartiger Ketenacetale darin besteht, über die Doppelbindung zu hochmolekularen Polyacetalen ohne eine nennenswerte Ringöffnung zu polymerisieren. Einflußfaktoren, wie z. B. resonanzstabilisierte Kettenenden oder sterische Hinderungen während des Wachstumsschrittes sind nicht in der Lage, die Polymerisation in die Richtung der gewünschten Ringöffnung zu lenken.Mittels Dichtemessungen wurden Informationen über das Schrumpfungsverhalten gewonnen. Es konnte gezeigt werden, daß raumerfüllende Substituenten am 2-Methylen-1,3-dioxansystem bei der Homopolymerisation grundsätzlich eine geringe Volumenschrumpfung bewirken und die Schrumpfung von herkömmlichen Monomeren bei der Copolymerisation herabsetzen können.
    Notes: We have investigated the free radical polymerization of phenyl-substituted 2-methylene-1,3-dioxanes. It was shown that there is a basic tendency of such ketenacetals to undergo exclusively a vinyl polymerization forming high-molecular polyacetals without any detectable ring opening. The polymerization with the desirable ring opening reaction cannot be controlled by factors like resonance stabilized chain ends or steric hindrance in the growing step.From densitometric measurements we got new information about the shrinkage behaviour. It was demonstrated that bulky substituents attached to the 2-methylene-1,3-dioxane system result in a significant low shrinkage in homopolymerization and the shrinkage of common comonomers can be decreased by copolymerization.

    Description / Table of Contents: Bacteriorhodopsin is a component of the purple membrane of Halobacterium halobium. It shows photochemical activity and undergoes a series of photocyclic-associated conformational changes. Incorporated in a matrix it is suitable as a light energy/electrical current transducer. Very important is an orientation of purple membrane fragments.The reaction between solutions of a polyelectrolyte and multivalent ions leads to a ionotropic gel, that is a gel with an ordered structure. If the gel formation was carried out in the presence of purple membrane fragments, the Bacteriorhodopsin is highly oriented and produces a photoelectrical signal. It consists a correlation between the light direction and the orientation of the purple membrane due to the gel formation.
    Notes: Bacteriorhodopsin ist Bestandteil der sogenannten Purpurmembran des Mikroorganismus Halobacterium halobium. Es zeigt photochemische Aktivität und kann als biologischer Lichtwandler fungieren. Voraussetzung hierfür ist eine orientierte Anordnung der Purpurmembran in einer Matrix.Das Prinzip der ionotropen Gelbildung, d. h. die geordnete Strukturbildung einer Polyelektrolytlösung infolge eines gerichteten Diffusionsstromes von mehrwertigen Ionen gestattet die orientierte Anordnung der Purpurmembran. Durch Lichteinwirkung werden elektrische Signale induziert. Es besteht ein Zusammenhang zwischen der Richtung des Strahlungseinfalls und der durch die Gelwachstumsrichtung festgelegten Orientierung der Purpurmembran.

    Notes: The thermal oxidation of β ray-crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) was studied in temperatures ranging from 90 to 180°C. Various analytical methods were used for determination of an end of the induction period on bulk samples: gravimetry, ultimate tensile properties, density and color change. On microtome slices of ∼30 μm thickness the depth distribution of oxidation products, phenolic antioxidant, density and tensile ultimate properties were followed as a function of exposure time by respectively IR and UV spectrophotometry, densitometry and Microfoil Tensile Testing.Depending on the testing method different durations of induction period (DIP) were obtained. They increase in following order:Phenol depletion 〈 Ultimate elongation 〈 Density 〈 Carbonyl build-up ≤ Color change 〈 Weight loss.The difference between phenol depletion DIP and carbonyl build-up DIP can be considered as negligible at temperatures higher than the melting point (about 30%) but it reachs more than 100% at T〈 Tm.Different kinetic regimes of phenol consumption were observed depending on the exposure temperature. A mechanistic interpretation is proposed explaining the role of the stabilizer system in initially homogeneous and later heterogeneous oxidation of the bulk material.The Arrhenius law was applied to different durations of induction period. A discontinuity appeared in the melting point region (120-130°C) which is tentatively interpreted in terms of different stabilizer concentration in amorphous phase of semicrystalline material (T 〈 Tm) and in melt material (T 〉 Tm). On the basis of the presented complex study of polyethylene thermo-oxidation, different aspects of lifetime predictions are discussed.

    Notes: Most plastics are produced from oil and have a high potential as hydrocarbon sources for the chemical industry. Pyrolysis is a practicable way to pyrolyze mixed plastics. The fluidized bed pyrolysis has turned out to be particularly advantageous. 25 to 45 percent of product gas with a high heating value and 30 to 50 percent of an oil rich in aromatics, could be recovered. The oil is comparable to that of a mixture of light benzene and bituminous coal tar. Up to 60 percent of ethene and propene are produced by using mixed polyolefins as feedstock. Under appropriate conditions the pyrolysis could be successful on the market.

    Notes: When poly(methyl methacrylate) films containing UV absorbers are exposed to UV light, the absorbers undergo photodegradation resulting in loss of absorbance. If the data extend for less than one half-life, both zero and first order kinetic treatment give fairly linear fits, but the rate constants so derived are dependent on the initial absorbance of the films. When the zero order rate constants are corrected to account for the higher rate of degradation near the surface compared with the bulk that occurs in highly absorbing films, consistent “infinite absorption” zero order rate constants are derived. The inhomogeneous degradation is due to only the highly absorbed, higher energy light contributing significantly to the degradation. For the benzophenone and benzotriazole classes of absorber, at least 65% of the degradation is due to light with wavelengths 〈 350 nm. Structural variations generally caused only small differences in the rates of degradation of these classes of absorbers unless the substitutions disrupted the intramolecular hydrogen bonds that are critical for stability. If the hydrogen bond is weakened, the absorber is less stable.

    Description / Table of Contents: Aus Cardanol, einem Bestandteil der Schale der Cashewnuß, wurde durch Kondensation mit Formaldehyd und substituierten aromatischen Verbindungen unter saurer oder basischer Katalyse eine Reihe von Harzen hergestellt und anhand ihrer IR-Spektren charakterisiert. Sie lassen sich als selektive Ionenaustauscher für bestimmte Ionen verwenden, was mittels einer Gleichgewichtsmethode geprüft wurde. Das thermische Verhalten der Harze wurde untersucht, und ein plausibler Abbaumechanismus wird vorgeschlagen.
    Notes: A large number of resins have been synthesized by reacting cardanol, a constituent of cashewnut shell liquid, with formaldehyde and substituted aromatic compounds in the presence of acidic and basic catalysts. The resins have been characterized by IR spectra. They were shown to be selective ion exchangers for certain metal ions. A batch equilibrium method was used for studying the selectivity of the metal ions. The thermal behaviour of the resins has been studied and a plausible degradation mechanism has been suggested.

    Notes: Bisphenol A polycarbonate (BPA-PC) is an important high performance engineering thermoplastic well known for its outstanding combination of toughness, transparency and heat resistance. These properties make it an idel material for demanding applications where it is exposed to external stresses such as elevated temperatures, ultraviolet light and γ-ray sterilization. However, on extended exposure to these conditions, BPA-PC slowly degrades, turning progressively more yellow, eventually leading to a decrease in its physical properties. Over the years, there has been numerous studies made to understand these degradative processes so as to better design more stable BPA-PC formulations. In this paper, this chemistry is briefly reviewed along with more recent work in this area with a special emphasis on the efforts made to identifying the actual chemical species responsible for the observed yellow color and the chemistry responsible for their formation.
