    Notes: Abstract The kinetics of the solvolysis of [Co(CN)5Cl]3− have been investigated in water +2-methoxyethanol and water + diethylene glycol mixtures. Although the addition of these linear hydrophilic cosolvent molecules to water produces curvature in the variation of log(rate constant) with the reciprocal of the dielectric constant, their effect on the enthalpy and entropy of activation is minimal, unlike the effect of hydrophobic cosolvents. The application of a Gibbs energy cycle to the solvolysis in water and in the mixtures using either solvent-sorting or TATB values for the Gibbs energy of transfer of the chloride ion between water and the mixture shows that the relative stability of the emergent solvated Co(III) ion in the transition state compared to that of Co(CN)5Cl3− in the initial state increases with increasing content of cosolvent in the mixture. By comparing the effects of other cosolvents on the solvolysis, this differential increase in the relative stabilities of the two species increases with the degree of hydrophobicity of the cosolvent.

    Notes: Abstract Rates of solvolysis of the complex cation [Co(4tBupy)4Cl2]+ have been determined in mixtures of water with the hydrophobic solvent, t-butyl alcohol. The solvent composition at which the extremum is found in the variation of the enthalpy ΔH* and the entropy ΔS* of activation correlates well with the extremum in the variation of the relative partial molar volume of t-butyl alcohol in the mixture and the straight line found for the variation of ΔH* with ΔS* is coincident with the same plot for water + 2-propanol mixtures. A free energy cycle is applied to the process initial state (C n+) going to the transition state [M(n+1)+...Cl−] in water and in the mixture using free energies of transfer of the individual ionic species, ΔG t o (i), from water into the mixture. Values for ΔG t o (i) are derived from the solvent sorting method and from the TATB/TPTB method: using data from either method, changes in solvent structure on going from water into the mixture are found to stabilize the cation in the transition state, M(n+1)+, more than in the initial state, C n+. This is compared with the application of the free energy cycle to the solvolysis of complexes [Co(Rpy)4Cl2]+ and [Coen2LCl]+ in mixtures of water with methanol, 2-propanol or t-butyl alcohol: the above conclusion regarding the relative stabilization of the cations holds for all these complexes in their solvolyses in water+alcohol mixtures using values of ΔG t o (Cl−) from either source.

    Notes: Abstract The rates of reduction of Cu(II) with H2O2 have been measured in NaCl and NaBr solutions and mixtures with NaClO4 as a function of pH (6 to 9), temperature (5 to 45°C) and ionic composition (0.1 to 6M). The effect of pH on the rates was found to be independent of temperature and ionic composition. The rates increased as a function of [H+] raised to the power of 1.3 to 1.6. Speciation calculations indicate that this pH dependence can be attributed to Cu(OH)2 being the reactive species. The rate constants in NaCl and NaBr and mixtures with NaClO4 were independent of ionic strength, but proportional to the halide concentration raised to the power of 2.0 (0.2 to 2.6M). These results can be attributed to Cu(OH)2Cl 2 2− being the reactive species to reduction with H2O2. The Cu(I) halide complexes formed from the reduction are not easily oxidized with O2 or H2O2. The faster rates in Br− solutions, which form stronger complexes with Cu+, support this contention. Measurements made in NaCl with added NaHCO3, NaB(OH)4 EDTA, NTA and glycine were also made. These measurements indicate that the CuL complexes (L=B(OH) 4 − , CO 3 2− , EDTA, NTA, and glycine) are not very reactive to reduction with H2O2. The addition of Mg2+ or Ca2+ caused the rates to increase due to the formation of MgL or CaL complexes and the resultant release of reactive Cu2+.

    Notes: Abstract Amplitudes of chemical relaxation signals can provide useful information as to the thermodynamics of coupled chemical reactions. The temperature-jump technique has been used to investigate the thermodynamic behavior of the Nickel(II)-3,5-dinitrosalicylate system in buffer solution, where complex formation steps are coupled to proton transfer steps. The analysis of the relaxation curves is based on the transformation of a set of coupled elementary reactions into a set of uncoupled ‘normal reactions.’ By analogy with classical titrations, the experiments have been performed by changing the metal ion concentration at constant ligand concentration and pH. Each measured amplitude is associated in this way to a point of a ‘dynamic titration’ and a procedure is formulated by which the values of the equilibrium constants and enthalpies of the normal reactions are simultaneously obtained by simple linear plots. From the dependence of these parameters on suitable functions of the concentrations of the reactants the values of ΔG° and ΔH° of the individual steps are derived. It is shown that the addition of a buffer (instead of an indicator) influences the stoichiometric coefficients of the normal reaction in such a way that measurable amplitudes are produced in systems that, as the presently investigated, in unbuffered solution would remain insensitive to the external perturbation. The circumstances under which the dynamic method offers advantages over the classical techniques are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract A method is established, by which the difference of the reaction activation barriers of carbon chain growth and termination in Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis can be determined from experiments. A FT synthesis is carried out on Fe/Zn catalyst. We apply the method to analyze the experimental result and obtain the difference of reaction activation barriers of carbon chain growth and termination of α-olefins on the catalyst.

    Notes: Abstract A critical review is given of the degradation of cellulose in the low-temperature region (below about 300°C) of power transformer operation. The large number of kinetic studies, under a variety of environmental conditions from Kraft paper in insulating oil, to cotton and paper in oxygen, are considered in terms of a first-order polymer chain scission model. In many cases, the data are replotted to suit the model. A common activation energy of 111±6 kjmol−1 is calculated and it is shown that the pre-exponential factor, rather than the activation energy, is sensitive to the oxidizing nature of the environment and the susceptibility to degradation of the material. The chemical mechanisms of degradation are reviewed, and conclusions and recommendations are made regarding chemical condition monitoring and life prediction of electrical insulation.

    Notes: Abstract Different mechanisms of atomic carbon and oxygen recombination on a rhodium surface are studied with Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The kinetics of adsorbed carbidic carbon oxidation (carbon coverageθ c ≈ 0.1–0.3 ML) by gas-phase oxygen that proceeds by a Langmuir-Hinshelwood reaction mechanism, provides the value of the activation energy for recombination (E rec ⇂t ≈ 170±20 kJ/mol).E rec ⇂t depends slightly on the carbon coverage. An Eley-Rideal type of reaction was observed for adsorbed oxygen and atomic gas-phase carbon recombination which occurs in a dynamic regime. The low value found for the activation energy (near zero) is consistent with the mechanism that this exothermic reaction is too fast for energy dissipation into the substrate; the energy is mainly transferred into translational, vibrational and rotational energy of CO.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Abstract The kinetics of a catalytic reaction is frequently formulated in terms of simple concepts of the Langmuir type. Apart from limitations arising from the non-uniformity of the catalyst's surface and from the coverage dependence of the rate “constants”, several other complications may come into play. These may arise on the “quantum level” where energy flow between the various degrees of freedom may cause failure of simple transition state theory, as well as on the “continuum level” where formulation of rate equations in terms of coupled non-linear differential equations may give rise to a rich scenario of spatio-temporal self-organization, including kinetic oscillations, chaos, and formation of concentration patterns. Several of these phenomena are illustrated by selected examples.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract The management variables which primarily affect phytoplankton biomass (as chl-a) in Lake Mjøsa, Norway, are total phosphorus loading (TP) and the timing and volume of water through flow (by active storage reservoirs). The response of the lake to changes in these factors is studied using a simulation model of the lake ecosystem. Chl-a responses from both observed data and the simulated results are extracted by multiple regression. Results show that decreasing TP load decreases chl-a, but less at low TP levels (〈 10 mg TP · m−3). There is also a certain time period for peak river flow which gives the least yield of chl-a per unit TP. This time period occurs in early summer (i.e., around June 10) if the total phosphorus load is low, and later if the load is high. Both observations and simulation results show that a high water flow increases chl-a at low epilimnion depths (〈 15 m), but that the same high water flow decreases chl-a when epilmnion is deep.

    Notes: Abstract We compare results of a new model for predicting the short term inter annual changes in chlorophyll-a (chl-a) in lakes after reductions in total phosphorus (TP) to predictions made by least squares regression models. In the new method, slopes of chl-a/TP graphs (both axes in mg · m−3) are depicted in frequency diagrams and used to extract information on the expected, short term chl-a/TP response. The short term response for nine shallow (〈 10 m deep) and nutrient rich lakes to changes in TP was found to be: Chl-a = 0.49 · TP + 17.3, and for nine deep, P-limited lakes: Chl-a = 0.08 · TP + 3.5. If the TP-reduction is known to be greater than 10 mg · m−3, the expected slope increases to 0.58 for shallow lakes and to 0.26 for deep lakes. The slope, 0.58, is 8% lower than the slope for the long term response calculated by regression for the shallow lakes. For deep lakes the slope, 0.26, is 2 to 3 times higher than that calculated by regression, indicating that reductions in TP for deep lakes give greater effects than least squares regression equations suggest. We have also calculated the reduction in TP which will give about 80% probability that a reduction in chl-a will be observed next year. For shallow, P-limited lakes this reduction is about 30 mg · m−3 (5% of average initial in-lake TP concentration), and for deep lakes about 14 mg · m−3 (35% of average initial in-lake TP concentration).

    Notes: Abstract Depth variable vertical eddy diffusion coefficients for heat (K z) were calculated from continuously measured temperature profiles in Überlinger See (western part of Lake Constance). The temperatures were averaged over vertical intervals of 10 m yielding 14 discrete values (maximum depth of Überlinger See: 147 m). A linear fit from 10 June to 29 September 1987 was used to smooth the significant temperature fluctuations caused by internal seiches of Lake Constance. Assuming horizontal homogeneity for the smoothed data the Gradient-Flux-Method was applied to compute vertical diffusion coefficientsK z at different depths using the depth variable volumes and surfaces of the 14 layers. The resulting mean diffusion coefficients for the period from June to September are 0.04 cm2/s near the thermocline and up to 0.8 cm2/s in deeper strata (accuracy: ± 50%). It is shown that horizontal mixing between Überlinger See and Obersee (main lake) alters the computation ofK z by less than 50%. A relationship betweenK z and stability (Brunt-Väisälä) frequencyN is found which corresponds well to the theory of internal wave induced turbulence. Combining the diffusion coefficients with measured phosphorus profiles, a phosphorus flux from the hypolimnion to the epilimnion of (0.7 ± 0.4) mg P m−2 d−1 was calculated, corresponding to about 20% of the average external loading per area of Lake Constance in 1986.

    Notes: Abstract The polymerization of sickle hemoglobin occurs by the same mechanisms in solutions and in cells, and involves the formation of 14 stranded fibers from hemoglobin molecules which have assumed a deoxy quaternary structure. The fibers form via two types of highly concentration-dependent nucleation processes: homogeneous nucleation in solutions with hemoglobin activity above a critical activity, and heterogeneous nucleation in similarly supersaturated solutions which also contain hemoglobin polymers. The latter pathway is dominant, and creates polymer arrays called domains. The individual polymers bend, but also cross-link, and the resulting mass behaves as a solid. The concentration of polymerized hemoglobin increases exponentially unless clamped by rate limiting effects such as oxygen delivery.

    Notes: Abstract Earlier studies have shown that sulfur dioxide and metal-support interaction can strongly influence propane oxidation over platinum. In particular, oxidation activity is enhanced when platinum is supported on sulfated γ-alumina or zirconia compared to γ-alumina. Therefore, it is of interest to compare the performance of palladium under the same experimental conditions. Four model catalysts were examined: Pt/γ-alumina, Pt/zirconia, Pd/γ-alumina and Pd/zirconia. The metal loading was kept at or below 0.05 wt% to emphasize changes in activity attributable to metal-support interaction. Reaction rates were measured with and without sulfur dioxide. Surface sulfation was analyzed by measuring acid strength and evaluating spectra obtained by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. In contrast to platinum, sulfation does not promote propane oxidation on Pd/γ-alumina, and Pd/zirconia is less active than Pd/γ-alumina.

    Notes: Abstract Kinetics of the gas/solid heterogeneous photocatalytic oxidation of dilute trichloroethylene (TCE) vapors by ultraviolet-illuminated titanium dioxide have been determined using a fixed-bed dynamic photoreactor. Reaction rate dependences on inlet TCE, oxygen and water vapor concentrations were found to consist of both reactant sensitive and insensitive regions. In the reactant sensitive regions, measured limiting apparent reaction rate orders for TCE, oxygen and water vapor are 0.8, 1.7 and — 3, respectively. Water vapor in the reactant stream lowersinitial reaction rates relative to corresponding water free conditions, but is required to sustain photocatalytic activity for extended periods of time.

    Notes: Abstract Multi-step procedures for the determination of phosphorus, sulfur and chlorine are described and tested against established methods and on reference materials. Phosphorus is separated as hydrogen phosphide, extracted as phosphomolybdic acid, reduced to molydenum blue and measured photometrically (detection limit 0.05 μg/g). Sulfur is separated after reduction as hydrogen sulfide or by means of pyrohydrolysis and measured by ICP-OES (detection limit 0.1 μg/g). Chloride can be measured by ion chromatography after pyrohydrolytic separation (detection limit 0.1 μg/g). The determination of sulfur was also successfully tested on copper and steel samples.

    Notes: Abstract The determination of phosphonate base scale inhibitors in brines by direct current plasma (DCP) and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) is described. The first method is based on a direct nebulization of the brine samples and plasma using the phosphorus line at 213.618 nm. The second method involves extraction of phosphorus as phospho-antimonyl molybdate complex into methylisobutyl ketone (MIBK) phase and analysis of the extract for molybdenum using the Mo 313.260 nm line. Comparison between the proposed methods and an established recommended method [1] shows excellent agreement between the results in addition to the sensitivity and ease of automation provided by AES.

    Notes: Abstract 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(3-chloro-4-sulfophenyl)porphine (m-Cl-TPPS4) was synthesized and used for the Spectrophotometric determination of mercury by flow injection analysis. A pseudo-first-order reaction kinetic mechanism was proposed with a rate constant of 0.8 min−1 for Hg(II) withm-Cl-TPPS4 in the presence of 8-hydroxyquinoline in a medium of 1.0M acetic acid and sodium acetate buffer solution (pH 6.22). In the optimum conditions of reaction temperature (85 ° C), stopped-flow time (60 s) and sampling volume (100 μl), the method's relative standard deviation was 0.82% (n = 12) at 5.0 μg ml−1 mercury, with a linear range of 0–12.0 μg ml−1 and an analytical frequency of 60h−1. The detection limit (3σ) was 0.025 μg ml−1. Interference studies showed that most metal ions co-existing with Hg2+ could be tolerated at 100-fold excess levels, but Zn2+, Cu2+ and Mn2+ needed to be masked. The method has been applied to the analysis of water samples with satisfactory results.

    Notes: Abstract Immunoassays for triazine herbicides were tested for their reaction to the variation of the tracer incubation time. By application of a sequential technique the measuring range of atrazine could be expanded to five decades and the total duration of the test could be reduced to about 30 min. In an optimized version a lower detection limit of 9 pmol/l (2 ng/l) was achieved. The detection limit of a sensitive immunoassay for terbuthylazine is also below the concentration limit demanded of the German drinking water regulation (100 ng/l) and reaches 130 pmol/l (30 ng/l). Short tracer incubation times did not lead to increased cross-reactivities in contrast to theoretical models [1, 2]. Different mechanisms, which could cause a shift of the center point of the calibration curve, are discussed, including kinetic considerations.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of different mineral nutrients on the kinetics of methane biodegradation by a mixed culture of methanotrophic bacteria was studied. The substrate factors examined were ammonia, iron, copper, manganese, phosphate, and sulphide. The presence of iron in the growth medium had a strong effect on the yield coefficient. Yield coefficients up to 0.49 mg protein per mg methane were observed when iron was added at concentrations of 0.10–5.0 mg/l. Iron addition also increased the maximum methane utilization rate. The same effect was observed after addition of ammonium to a medium where nitrate was the only nitrogen source. The observed Monod constant for methane utilization increased with increasing concentration of ammonia. This shows that ammonia is a weak competitive inhibitor as observed by other researchers. Relatively high levels of both ammonia (70 mg/l) and copper (300 µg/l) inhibited the methane degradation, probably due to the toxic effect of copper-amine complexes.

    Notes: Abstract Sediment cores from the shallow and deep basins of Pyramid Lake, Nevada, revealed variations in composition with depth reflecting changes in lake level, river inflow, and lake productivity. Recent sediments from the period of historical record indicate: (1) CaCO3 and organic content of sediment in the shallow basin decrease at lower lake level, (2) CaCO3 content of deep basin sediments increases when lake level decreases rapidly, and (3) the inorganic P content of sediments increases with decreasing lake volume. Variations in sediment composition also indicate several periods for which productivity in Pyramid Lake may have been elevated over the past 1000 years. Our data provide strong evidence for increased productivity during the first half of the 20th Century, although the typical pattern for cultural eutrophication was not observed. The organic content of sediments also suggests periods of increased productivity in the lake prior to the discovery and development of the region by white settlers. Indeed, a broad peak in organic fractions during the 1800's originates as an increase starting around 1600. However, periods of changing organic content of sediments also correspond to periods when inflow to the lake was probably at extremes (e.g. drought or flood) indicating that fluctuations in river inflow may be an important factor affecting sediment composition in Pyramid Lake.

    Notes: Abstract This paper discusses the land types, hydrologic characteristics and processes, and the major modification of these, in relation to mechanisms and magnitude of phosphorus losses to drains and riverine systems which discharge to the Peel-Harvey estuary. About 75% of the coastal plain part of the catchment is cleared of native vegetation and used for dryland, dairy and beef grazing. There are small areas devoted to irrigated pasture and commercial horticulture. Seventy-five percent of the soils of the catchment are sandy surfaced with a poor capacity to retain phosphorus. Though the area is flat, catchment water yields are high because of a large winter rainfall excess and low soil storage capacity. Drainage schemes have been constructed in much of the catchment to remove excess water quickly. This was required initially to allow agricultural expansion and is now important for protecting a growing infrastructure which serves the most populous region of Western Australia.

    Notes: Abstract The European Community is producing annually about 300 × 106 tons of sewage sludges as well as about 150, 950,160 and 200 tons of domestic, agricultural, industrial and other wastes (street litter, dead leaves etc.). About 20–25% of the German sewage sludges, which contain in average about 3.8,1.6, 0.4, 0.6, 5.3% DM−1 N, P, K, Mg and Ca, 202, 5, 131, 349, 53, 3 and 1446 mg kg−1 DM Pb, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Hg, Zn as well as ca. 37 and 5 mg kg−1 Dm polychlorinated hydrocarbons and biphenyls, are recycled annually as fertilizer. In addition environmental impacts on the arable land of Germany may derive from 76,19.2, 64.7, 33.6, 7.8 and 0.1 kg ha−1 a−1 of N, P, K, Ca, Mg and Cu added as animal manures. Besides heavy metals and hazardous organics pathogens are disseminated with organic wastes. Crop production and soil fertility generally profit from the considerable amounts of plant nutrients and carbon in sewage sludges, animal slurries and manures, but the physicochemical soil properties, the composition of microbial, faunal and plant communities as well as the metabolic processes in the soil-, rhizo- and phyllosphere are changed by organic manuring. Consequences for the soil carbon-, nitrogen-and phosphorus-cycle are discussed. Impacts of heavy metals and hazardous organics on the soil biomass and its habitat as well as on transport mechanisms and surival times of disseminated pathogens in soils are reviewed with emphasis on the German situation. A proposal for future strategies (landscape recycling) is made.

    Notes: Abstract Forest fertilization in the Netherlands has played an important role in the phase of afforestation of former heathlands. Research started in the early fifties, but results were not applied in practical forestry. A review is presented on forest fertilization in practice, and on the main results of the activities of De Dorschkamp on NPK fertilization, liming and micronutrients application. Attention is paid to problems which have developed during the past ten years.

    Notes: Abstract Dissolved inorganic nitrogen and phosphorus, their relationship to each other (DIN/DIP) as predisposing (nutrient) factors, as well as prevailing weather as a triggering factor all work together to induce the primary production and hence the eutrophication (hypertrophication) process in surface waters. Sulfate likewise is a decisive predisposing factor influencing the eutrophication process by reducing N availability but increasing P availability and thus acting towards an N limitation of the primary production. This is one of the reasons why marine (coastal) waters and estuaries often exhibit N limitation with respect to primary production, while freshwater ecosystems often tend to exhibit P limitation. Within the N and P balance of agriculture of some countries of Western Europe (Netherlands, Denmark, Switzerland, FRG, UK and Sweden for N, resp. Netherlands, FRG and GDR for P) more the level than the efficiency of the N and P applications indicates the extent of the nutrient surplus. Despite 59–73% N utilization in plant production, the rate of 13–23% for agriculture as a whole equals to the 12–21% efficiency of N use in animal production. The varying N surplus in agriculture in the separate countries of 124 to 465 kg N ha−1 a−1 is determined almost exclusively by the level of the N application and not by its efficiency. The situation is similar for P: In spite of P utilization in plant production of 59–76%, P utilization in total agriculture is only 11–38%, or comparable to the P efficiency within animal production of 10–34%. The differing P excess balance of 55 to 88 kg P2O5 ha−1 a−1 is influenced by the level of the P application. The N and P efficacy of total agriculture hence is determined almost completely by that of animal production, since 83–95% (N basis) and 76–94% (P basis) of the total plant production (on top of the nationally varying levels of N and P use via imported feeds) are fed to animals — with the low N and P utilization cited above. Agriculture's share of the N and P emissions into surface water of several countries/regions in Western Europe (FRG, Netherlands, Italy, Denmark, Switzerland, Norway) ranges from 37 to 82% resp. 27 to 38%. Its share in the flus into the North Sea catchment basin will be about 60% for N and 25% for P related only to the anthropogenic material carried by the rivers. Agriculture's share in the atmospheric N emissions into the North and Baltic Seas can be estimated at about 65% or 55%, resp. while the remaining approx. 35% or 45%, resp. are traceable primarily to anthropogenic burning processes. For agriculture the priority lies in limiting N emissions into surface water caused by leaching, erosion and NH3 emissions, and reducing P emissions mainly through soil conservation (protection against erosion) and water protection. As regards N this means a demand for comprehensive protection of groundwater and atmosphere differentiated according to the potential for losses or the risk of losses on a site, also outside the protection zones. As regards P only those areas can be included in the demand for reduction of emissions that are actually threatened by erosion or surface runoff. Plenty of short-term and long-term measures are available to agriculture to reduce N and P emissions. Especially the long-range measures (such as creating nutrient balances on farms and fields, the integration of animal and plant production, maintaining maximum livestock densities according to the ability of areas to absorb nutrients, altered feeding programs in animal nutrition, changes in livestock keeping (slurry→deep litter), increasing the internal and external recycling of N and P) are capable of bringing about a satisfactory degree of success within the next 20 to 30 years.

    Notes: Abstract With the rapid growth of the poultry industry in Oklahoma, U.S.A., more litter is applied to farm land. Thus, information is required on the impact of applications on regional soil and water resources. The effect of soil and poultry litter management on nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) loss in runoff and subsurface flow from four 16 m2 plots (Ruston fine sandy loam, 6 to 8% slope) was investigated under natural rainfall. Plots under Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) received 11 Mg litter ha−1, which amounts to contributions of approximately 410 kg N and 140 kg P ha−1 yr−1. In spring, litter was broadcast on 3 of the plots; the upper half of one and total area of the other two. One of the total-area broadcast plots was tilled to 6 cm, the other remained as no till. The fourth plot served as a control. Relative to the control, litter application increased mean concentrations of total N and total P in runoff during the 16-week study for no-till (15.4 and 5.8 mg L−1) and tilled treatments (16.7 and 6.1 mg L−1). However, values for the half-area application (5.6 and 2.0 mg L−1) were similar to the control (5.7 and 1.3 mg L−1). Interflow (subsurface lateral flow at 70 cm depth) P was not affected by litter application; however, nitrate-N concentrations increased from 0.6 (control) to 2.9 mg L−1 (no till). In all cases, 〈 2 % litter N and P was lost in runoff and interflow, maintaining acceptable water quality concentrations. Although litter increased grass yield (8518 kg ha−1) compared to the control (3501 kg ha−1), yields were not affected by litter management. An 8-fold increase in the plant available P content of surface soil indicates long-term litter management and application rates will be critical to the environmentally sound use of this nutrient resource.

    Notes: Abstract Ensete (Ensete ventricosum W. Cheesm.) is a root crop which stores starch in the root and in the lower part of the stem. It is grown in the southwest of Ethiopia and due to its drought resistance, it is of outstanding importance for the supply of food to the local population. Until now virtually nothing is known about the response of Ensete to fertilizer application. Field trials carried out on three representative soils in Ethiopia showed that Ensete biomass yields were increased significantly on all three soils by nitrogen and phosphorus application. Potassium had only marginal effect on biomass growth but favourably influenced starch production. Sulfate application had no major impact on growth and starch yield. The yield response was well related to the level of available nutrients in the soil, as determined by electroultrafiltration (EUF). Leaf analysis provided preliminary evidence that optimum levels of N, P, and K may be 3.8%, 0.3%, and 4.8%, respectively.

    Notes: Abstract In a fertilizer and manure experiment, millet was grown under four treatments (no fertilizer or manure, farmyard manure, chemical fertilizer, and both). Grain yield and total aboveground biomass production of the unfertilized plot were relatively high. The observed differences in total dry matter production must be attributed to differences in nutrient availability, as amount of rainfall and its distribution were favourable. Results show only small differences in distribution of dry matter among the various plant organs between the best and the non-fertilized treatments. Nutrient supply from natural sources, defined as crop content of N, P, and K at maturity without fertilizer application, amounted to 104, 16 and 103 kg ha−1, respectively, which are very high values. Total uptake of calcium and magnesium is related to that of potassium, as the combined content of these three elements is linearly related to total aboveground biomass production. Minimum removal of nitrogen and phosphorus per ton grain dry matter amounts to 29 and 4kg, respectively, and 9 kg potassium per ton total aboveground dry matter. A possible double function of phosphorus as element of structural biomass and for maintenance of electro-neutrality is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract An excess of plant nutrients has caused serious eutrophication in aquatic ecosystems of southwestern Australia manifested by excessive growth and accumulation of green and bluegreen algae. Phosphorus is generally the limiting nutrient for algal growth and phosphatic fertilizers applied to nutrient-deficient, leaching, sandy soils are the main source of P, supplemented by rural industry point sources. Nitrogen is the limiting nutrient in marine embayments with little drainage from the land. Measures to reduce the load of P delivered to drainage include basing fertilizer application rates on soil testing for P and the use of less soluble P fertilizers. Catchment management plans are being implemented with community involvement to reduce P loads and maintain agricultural production. This introductory paper reviews the history of eutrophication in southwestern Australia and of studies into its causes, principally in the large Peel-Harvey estuary. It briefly summarises other papers in this special issue concerned with different aspects of the problem: how to fertilize the land without causing eutrophication.

    Notes: Abstract In order to manage phosphorus (P) losses from soils to waterbodies, knowledge of the mechanisms through which P is retained or released from the soil is essential. Sandy soils of the Peel-Harvey catchment (Western Australia) were subjected to a range of environmental and management factors in the laboratory and field in order to gain an understanding of the mechanisms that affect the magnitude of P losses. Sandy soils accumulated P, despite having little sorption capacity, and this accumulation could be monitored by measuring an acid-extractable fraction. The potential, short-term P loss could be estimated by determination of water-soluble soil solution P prior to winter rains. An annual cycle of the change in arbitrarily defined soil-P pools is discussed in relation to environmental and management factors. Laboratory experiments indicated that P rundown and potential annual P loss in the absence of P fertilizers could be estimated using bicarbonate extractable P. Phosphorus losses were decreased by the application of fertilizers with a low content of water-soluble P. The low ability of sandy soils of the Peel-Harvey coastal catchment to retain P, when compared to other Western Australian soils, is because of low contents of clay minerals and iron and aluminium hydrous oxides.

Different models are proposed; accumulated dry matter developed throughout a growing period is shown to be an excellent reference for assessing the evolution of the plant mineral content and the mineral removal the growing crop. Applications in diagnosing mineral nutrition status and optimising fertilizer use are proposed and discussed.

    Notes: Abstract A greenhouse experiment, with Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.) as the test crop, was conducted on twenty-one soils ranging in Olsen's extractable phosphorus from 1.8 to 15.5µg Pg−1 soil. The experiment was conducted at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, India. The soils were nonsaline with pH ranging from 7.7 to 8.6. A critical level of 2.55µg Pg−1 soil was predicted by Cate and Nelson's (1971) statistical procedure. Because of a wide range in relative yields, this value did not accurately predict response to applied P. An approach to compute minimum response to applied fertilizer, which is likely to be obtained at a particular Olsen P level, has been presented. It involves calculation of lower 60 percent confidence limits for relative yield and fitting loge-linear regression to the transformed data. The regression was tested on a published data set and was found to hold well.

    Notes: Abstract Two trials inPinus radiata growing on different sites in N.S.W. allowed consideration of fertilizer applications after 2nd or 3rd thinning. The trials included factorial applications of N and P at a single thinning intensity plus a further treatment which allowed assessment of different thinning intensities. The most significant growth responses were obtained by application of N and P in combination. The largest response (additional productivity compared with the unfertilized control) occurred 4 years after application and after 7 years there was no additional absolute response for either of the two sites. The largest fertilizer response was 70 m3 ha−1 over 7 years on one site and 36 m3 ha−1 on the other, indicating differences in absolute responses between sites. It was concluded that in planning treatments the most responsive sites near the end of the rotation should be selected to maximise economic returns. Foliage analyses indicated differences between sites at the commencement of the study. It was concluded that either a single year of foliage analyses at study commencement is of value, or sampling every year of the study should be used to analyse responses, but a single year of analysis during or at the end of the study would not be of value.

    Notes: Abstract Individual granules within a given granule population of a slow-release fertilizer (SRF) have a different release pattern. The populations studied differed both in relation to the time delay before the start of the release process and to the duration of the release. An association between a short delay period and a rapid release was found. The random reease distribution can be approximated using first-order rate equations. In cases, a term describing a “lag” period should be added. The distribution of release timing among the fertilizer granules may allow a long-lasting nutrient supply to the plant, as long as there are enough granules within the root zone to allow a uniform supply pattern.

    Notes: Abstract Phosphate, applied at 5µg P cm−3, decreased selenite sorption by from 30–70% in three soils studied. Both maximum sorption (Xm) and the binding-energy of sorption as indicated by the binding-energy related constant (k) or the molar free energy (ΔG) of the sorption reaction derived from the Langmuir equation were considerably decreased. On the other hand, phosphate sorption was decreased by increasing concentration of selenite from 0.2µg Se cm−3 to 1.0µg Se cm−3 in the initial solution. The competitive sorption of phosphate with selenite was likely the main mechanism involved in the P-Se interactions. The competitively sorbed selenite exhibited much larger desorption in 0.01M CaCl2 solution, more readily extractable to 0.5M NaHCO3 and significantly higher isotopic exchangeability compared to that sorbed without the competing anion. Results from pot trial using ryegrass indicated that phosphate application increased more efficiently the plant-availability of applied fertilizer Se than that of indegeneous Se in soil.

    Notes: Abstract Living organisms do not just grow by synthesizing cellular components. As part of the necessary steps for existence, some components are degraded after synthesis. Even for bacteria in balanced, exponential growth some substances, under some conditions, are turned over. In other phases of growth turnover can be much more extensive, but it is still selective. This review covers studies with animals as a way to put the studies on microorganisms in perspective. The history, the mathematics, and experimental design of turnover experiments are reviewed. The important conclusion is that most of the proteins during balanced growth are very stable in bacteria, although ribosomal proteins are degraded under starvation conditions. Another generalization is that the process of wall enlargement in general is associated with obligatory turnover of the peptidoglycan.

    Notes: Abstract Aboveground nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) requirement, retranslocation and use efficiency were determined for 28-year-old red oak (Quercus rubra L.), European larch (Larix decidua Miller), white pine (Pinus strobes L.), red pine (Pinus resinosa Ait.) and Norway spruce (Picea abies (L) Karst.) plantations on a similar soil in southwestern Wisconsin. Annual aboveground N and P requirements (kg/ha/yr) totaled 126 and 13 for red oak, 86 and 9 for European larch, 80 and 9 for white pine, 38 and 6 for red pine, and 81 and 13 for Norway spruce, respectively. Nitrogen and P retranslocation from current foliage ranged from 81 and 72%, respectively, for European larch, whereas red pine retranslocated the smallest amount of N (13%) and Norway spruce retranslocated the smallest amount of P (18%). In three evergreen species, uptake accounted for 72 to 74% of annual N requirement whereas for two deciduous species retranslocation accounted for 76 to 77% of the annual N requirement. Nitrogen and P use (ANPP/uptake) was more efficient in deciduous species than evergreen species. The results from this common garden experiment demonstrate that differences in N and P cycling among species may result from intrinsic characteristics (e.g. leaf longevity) rather than environmental conditions.

    Notes: Abstract Pyridoxal 5′-phosphate is a coenzyme for a number of enzymes which catalyse reactions at Cα of amino acid substrates including transaminases, decarboxylases and serine hydroxymethyltransferase. Using the X-ray coordinates for a transaminase, aspartate aminotransferase, and the results of stereochemical and mechanistic studies for decarboxylases and serine hydroxymethyltransferase, an active-site structure for the decarboxylase group is constructed. The structure of the active-site is further refined through active-site pyridoxyllysine peptide sequence comparison and a 3-D catalytic mechanism for the L-α-amino acid decarboxylases is proposed. The chemistry of serine hydroxymethyltransferase is re-examined in the light of the proposed decarboxylase mechanism.

    Notes: Abstract We estimate the response of chl-a (mg · m−3) to changes in concentrations of total phosphorus (TP) by calculating the slopeS = Δchl-a/ΔTP in chl-a =f(TP) graphs. Results show that in years where algae are P-limited oligotrophic lakes respond less (median slope 0.21) to changes in nutrient concentrations than eutrophic lakes, (median slope 0.31) and these again less than hypereutrophic lakes, (median slope 1.02). We find no saturation value for the slope within the TP range considered (6–480 mg · m−3). Chl-a in eutrophic lakes responds more frequently to non-nutrient factors than oligotrophic and hypereutrophic lakes. Results obtained by replacing TP with a new nutrient parameter, TP′ = 0.056 · TP · IN0.226, in which inorganic nitrogen, IN, is factored in, suggest that nitrogen has an influence on chl-a in oligotrophic lakes. Blue-green algae respond less to changes in TP than other algal species, e.g., diatoms.

    Notes: Abstract In most lakes eutrophication is linked to an excessive input of phosphorus. Lake restoration by reduction of P-input (external measure) has led to a considerable drop of the P-concentration in all major Swiss lakes as well as in many other lakes. Internal restoration measures such as artificial mixing, drainage of hypolimnetic water, flushing, aeration, biomanipulation and others serve to improve and accelerate the response of a lake to external measures. For the case of Lago di Lugano, a simple two-box model is employed to demonstrate that a reduction of the P-input to about 25% of the present values is necessary to reach the “P-criterion” (P-concentration below 30 µg/l). Internal measures could possibly accelerate the extremely slow response of the northern basin.

    Notes: Abstract Dissolved inorganic nutrient pools are small relative to particulate pools, and dissolved pools turnover rapidly. It has been observed that pools change little from day to day on the sampling scales usually employed. A simple model is presented where uptake and regeneration rates balance to cause a local steady state concentration for dissolved inorganic nutrients. Enrichment and dilution perturbation experiments with lake water support the idea of steady state nutrient concentrations. Although inorganic nutrient concentrations are often controlled by biota, the absolute concentrations present tell little about the activity of that biota.

    Notes: Abstract The kinetics of conversion of iron(III) (hydr)oxides to ferrous iron mediated by fulvic acid have been investigated in order to improve the understanding of the redox cycling of iron at the oxic-anoxic boundary in natural waters. Under the conditions similar to natural waters, fulvic acid is able to reduce the iron(III) (hydr)oxide. The kinetics of the reaction depend on the reactivity of iron(III) (hydr)oxides and the reducing power of the fulvic acid. The rate of reaction is 60 nm/h obtained under following conditions: total concentration of Fe(III) 1.0 × 10−4 M, pH 7.5, fulvic acid 5 mg/L. The rate is considered as a net result of reduction and oxidation in the 〉 FeIII-OH/Fe(II) “wheel” coupled with fulvic acid. In a real natural water system, reductants other than fulvic acid may be of importance. The results obtained in the laboratory, however, provide evidence that the Fe(OH)3(s)/Fe(II) redox couple is able to act as an electron-transfer mediator for the oxidation of natural organic substances, such as fulvic acid by molecular oxygen either in the absence of microorganisms or as a supplement to microbial activity.

    Notes: Abstract Regression results based on data from 46 northern temperate lakes show that total phosphorus (TP) is the best predictor for phytoplankton (as chl-a) at lower trophic levels, TP 〈 200 mg · m−3. A regression including both TP and TN as regressors is the best predictor for lakes with TP 〉 200 mg · m−3. However, the good correlation is probably due to a high correlation between lake average chl-a (all years observed) and lake average TP and TN. Within single hypereutrophic lakes, TN alone is the best predictor. It was not possible to identify a medium trophic domain where TN and TP in combination was the best predictor for chl-a. The ratio TN:TP in the water decreases from about 40 to about 5 with increasing trophic level. Optimum TN:TP ratio for algal species with high abundance during late summer and autumn reflects this decreasing ratio, but within a lesser range, i.e., 20 to 5. In contrast, TN:TP ratios for species abundant during the early vernal period showed no, or an inverse, relation to the TN:TP ratio of the water.

    Notes: Abstract The contribution of nitrogen and phosphorus due to precipitation constitutes the second most important route after superficial runoff. The sampling carried out during a two-year period by means of a precipitation collector allows us to determine the contribution of this route both qualitatively and quantitatively. Nitrogen is mainly supplied in an inorganic form, while phosphorus is principally supplied as orthophosphate. During the period of this study (March 1986–February 1988) it was found that in the Santillana Reservoir Watershed the level of nitrogen supplied by precipitation constitutes an average of 4.87% and the level of phosphorus constitutes 8.01%. The contribution of nitrogen varies in inverse ratio to precipitation and the contribution of phosphorus varies in direct ratio.

    Notes: Summary The absorption of intramuscular phenobarbitone 7 mg·kg−1 was studied in 11 Karen children aged between 1.7 and 11 y with severe falciparum malaria. Eight of the children were comatose. Clinical findings were compared with those in 9 further children with severe malaria of similar age range (four of whom were unconscious), who received an identical placebo. One child, who had received placebo, had repeated convulsions and died 1 h after admission to hospital. The remainder made an uncomplicated recovery. There were no convulsions subsequent to treatment, although the study was too small to assess anticonvulsant efficacy. There was no observable toxicity, but phenobarbitone recipients had a significant tendency to deepen in their level of coma or to become sleepy within the 4 h after drug administration. Phenobarbitone was rapidly absorbed, reaching a mean (range) peak concentration of 34.2 [29.3–42.6] μmol·l−1 in a median (range) of 4 (2.5–12) h. These values are comparable to those previously reported in healthy children and in children with febrile convulsions. Intramuscular phenobarbitone is well absorbed in children with severe malaria; the optimum prophylactic anticonvulsant dose remains to be determined.

    Notes: Summary To study the influence of age on the kinetics of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) in man, human (99–126) ANP 2.0 μg·min−1 was infused IV for 60 min in 8 healthy young (18 to 25 y) and 9 healthy elderly (71 to 84 y) subjects. Both baseline ANP values and the levels at the end of infusion were higher in the elderly subjects. The mean residence time of ANP in the two age groups was not significantly different, whereas total body clearance (CL) was markedly diminished in the elderly as compared to the young subjects (mean±SD 3.1±1.0 l·min−1 and 6.2±4.1 l·min−1, respectively). The apparent volume of distribution at steady state was lower in the elderly than in the young, but the difference was not significant (mean±SD 44±19 and 103±111, respectively. The decrease in CL largely explained the higher ANP levels found in the elderly subjects. The MRT and the plasma half-life of the terminal phase did not differ between the two groups. In the elderly but not in the young subjects the calculated endogenous creatinine clearance was closely correlated with the CL (r=0.90, P〈0.001), thereby emphasizing the importance of the kidney in the metabolic clearance of ANP in the elderly.

    Notes: Summary The absorption of talinolol (TA) 50 mg was investigated without and together with the co-administration of sulfasalazine (SASP) 4 g in 11 healthy young volunteers, in order to clarify gastrointestinal transit of TA. Without SASP, the tmax of TA was 2.8 h, Cmax was 112 ng·ml−1 and the half life was 12 h; the AUCo-t was 958 ng·ml−1·h. In the case of concomitant administration of SASP, TA was found only in serum from 3 individuals, with a Cmax of 23 ng·ml−1 and a mean AUCo-t of 84 ng·ml−1·h. TA was not detectable in 5 subjects and it was at the limit of detection (2 ng·ml−1) in 3 subjects. Pharmacokinetic analysis was not possible in any of those individuals. The reason for the interaction appears to be the adsorption of TA by SASP. An interval of 2–3 h should elapse between giving SASP and other drugs.

    Notes: Summary The absorption properties of a conventional tablet of carbamazepine (T) and a controlled release form of carbamazepine (TCR) have been compared using a nonlinear mixed effect model (NONMEM). Plasma carbamazepine concentration data were obtained from an open, steady-state, crossover bioavailability study in which 494 measurements were obtained from 13 patients, with an equal number of samples per patient for each dosage form. The pharmacokinetic model used was a one-compartment open model with first-order absorption and elimination. The objective function was used as a measure of the goodness of fit of the model to the data. Body weight was an important determinant of carbamazepine clearance (CL) but not volume of distribution (V). Accounting for the interindividual variability in volume of distribution did not significantly influence the objective function. Including different rates of absorption (ka) for the two dosage forms resulted in a significant improvement in the objective function, as well as reducing the interindividual variability in the rate of absorption. Adding a parameter for relative bioavailability (f) of TCR improved the objective function statistically, but an unrealistic value for V was obtained, and the absorption and elimination rates appeared to be transposed in the classical “flip-flop” manner. Fixing V to the value obtained before introducing f did not change the objective function and permitted estimation of f without the confounding influence of excessive parameters. The final population parameter estimates (standard error of estimate) were: CL, 0.0522 (0.0019) l·h−1·kg−1; V, 63.7 (FIXED)l; kaT, 0.312 (0.064) h−1; kaTCR, 0.149 (0.016) h−1; f, 1.01 (0.0326); variance (additive) in CL, 0.291 (0.083) (l·h−1·kg−1)2; residual intrasubject error variance (additive), 0.572 (0.082) (mg·l−1)2. The 95% confidence interval of the extent of absorption (f) of 93.6%–107.4% was well within the generally accepted range of ±20%, while the rate of absorption of Tegretol CR was significantly slower than that of Tegretol, as expected for a controlled release product.

    Notes: Summary A prospective study was carried out in 40 acutely ill patients to compare the non-kinetic and kinetic approaches to individualization of the dosage regimen of gentamicin. The patients were divided into two equal groups. For the non-kinetic group, the doses were derived from the physician's personal experience, on a mg/kg basis, and by use of nomograms. The total daily dose ranged from 1.43 to 4.5 mg/kg. Based on serum concentration measurements, the dosage regimen for individual patient was calculated by Sawchuk-Zaske's method. The calculated doses were compared to the prescribed doses in each patient. Of the patients on empirically prescribed doses 65% received 36% more drug than the calculated dose and 20% received 36% less than the calculated dose. The calculated dosing intervals were greater than the recommended intervals in 60% of the patients. The gentamicin trough concentration was 〉 2 μg/ml in 70% of the patients. There was a significant tendency to overdosage of the patients. For the kinetic group, following administration of the calculated dose, the steady-state peak and trough concentrations in each patient were measured. The correlation of measured to predicted steady-state serum concentrations was excellent (r=0.9968, p〈0.05). About 85% of the served trough concentrations and 90% of the peak values fell within the therapeutic range. The mean of the prediction error (ME), mean absolute error (MAE), mean squared error (MSE), and root mean squared error (RMSE) of the trough and peak concentrations were calculated. The 95% confidence interval of the ME for the trough and peak concentrations included zero, which shows that the prediction was not significantly biased. A significant relationship between gentamicin clearance and the ratio of the peak and trough concentrations achieved to the administered dose (r=0.873, 0.916 for trough and peak, respectively) was found. The findings suggest that the individualized approach to dosage determination using pharmacokinetic principles, in conjunction with daily monitoring of serum gentamicin concentrations, may provide safe and effective therapy.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of etizolam, a new thienodiazepine derivative, has been examined after single and multiple (0.5 mg tablet) (0.5 mg b.d for 1 week) oral therapeutic doses in healthy volunteers. The single-dose kinetic profile of etizolam suggested that absorption after oral dosage was reasonably rapid, the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) being attained within 0.5–2 h in all subjects. The mean elimination half-life (t1/2) averaged 3.4 h. Consistent with this, steady-state concentration were rapidly achieved and accumulation was extremely limited. Predicted average plasma concentrations (Cp) did not differ significantly from those actually measured at steady-state, suggesting that the kinetics of etizolam was linear, at least at therapeutic doses. The mean wash-out t1/2 was comparable to the elimination t1/2 of the single dose, which means that the drug probably has no effect on hepatic microsomal enzymes and other kinetic variables after repeated dosing. At steady state plasma concentrations of the main metabolite, α-hydroxyetizolam, were higher and disappeared more slowly (mean t1/2 8.2 h) than those of the parent compound. Taken with the fact that in animals the metabolite shows almost the same potency of pharmacological action as etizolam, this suggests that it may contribute significantly to the clinical effects of the parent compound. Based on the kinetic characteristics of the parent drug and its metabolite, etizolam can be regarded as a short-acting benzodiazepine, with elimination kinetics between those of short-intermediate derivatives and ultra-rapidly eliminated benzodiazepines.

    Notes: Abstract The influence of various experimental conditions such as sample weight, atmosphere and heating rate on the decomposition of NH4VO3, CaCO3 and V2O5 has been investigated. Results obtained clearly indicate that the course of the reactions and — in turn — the kinetic parameters, are not intrinsic to the particular compound and that they characterize rather the combination of experimental conditions and investigated compound. Such a situation makes it almost impossible to choose ‘standard conditions’ for the calculation of kinetic parameters, because under different circumstances quite different reaction-pathways can occur.

Die TA Technik kann eine zuverlässige kinetische Information und sinnvolle kinetische Parameter besonders bei Feststoffumsetzungen liefern. Die CRTA Technik ist andererseits mehr für Zersetzungsprozesse geeignet, bei denen ein oder mehrere Gase freigesetzt werden. Für beide Techniken wird eine einheitliche und geeignete Methode zu kinetischen Analyse vorgeschlagen. Als Beispiel wird diese Methode zur Analyse des Kristallisationsprozesses von Chalkogenidgläsern sowie der Zersetzung von Dolomit angewendet.
    Notes: Abstract The applicability of both conventional Thermal Analysis (TA) and Controlled Rate Thermal Analysis (CRTA) for kinetic analysis is discussed. It is shown that TA method can give a reliable kinetic information and meaningful kinetic parameters especially for solid state transformation. On the other hand the CRTA method is more suitable for decomposition process where one or more gasses are evolved. A consistent and reliable method of kinetic analysis is proposed for both techniques. This method is illustrated to analyze the crystallization process of chalcogenide glass and the decomposition of dolomite.

The values of apparent activation energy (E a) decreases with the increase of the amount of ZnCl2 and the values obtained in the present work are in reasonable comparison with previous works. The catalytic effect of ZnCl2 on PVC DHCL process is explained here.

The main difference between this device and other equipment is the application of hydrogen to obtain a H2/H2S mixture at suitable sulphur partial pressures at a total mixture pressure of 1 atm. The use of the carrier gas allows the measurement of sulphidation kinetics under dynamic conditions and consequently over a much wider pressure range of sulphur vapour, down to 10−12 atm.

Die Reaktivität der modifizierten Proben wurden mit der von reinem WO3 verglichen. Für die reinen und für die alkaliversetzten Proben wurden ähnliche scheinbare Aktivierungsenergien gefunden. Der Zusatz von Kalium verursacht jedoch eine starke Abnahme der ursprünglichen Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit, während oberflächiges Lithium keinen Effekt zeigt. Während der Chlorierung wurde eine ständige Senkung der linearen Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit für beide Proben festgestellt, was mit Rückhalteeffekten von oberflächigen Nebenprodukten und Alkalizusätzen erklärt wird. Zur Beschreibung der isothermen TG-Kurven wurde ein entsprechendes kinetisches Modell angenommen, welches auf einer monoton steigenden Inhibition dieser Proben basiert. Die auf der Grundlage dieses Modelles berechnete Kurve stimmt recht gut mit den experimentellen Ergebnissen überein.
    Notes: Abstract The chlorination kinetics of alkali-added (K and Li) tungsten trioxide were studied by thermogravimetry, using gaseous CCl4 as chlorinating agent. The reactivity of the modified samples was compared to the results on the chlorination of pure WO3. Similar apparent activation energies were found for the pure and alkali-added samples. However, potassium additive resulted in a strong decrease of the initial reaction rate, while surface lithium has no influence on it. During the chlorination a continuous decrease of the linear reaction rate was observed for both samples, which was explained by retarding effects of surface by-products and alkali additives. For describing the isothermal TG curves an appropriate kinetic model, based on the monotonously increasing inhibition of these species was assumed. The curve calculated with this model fits well to the experimental results.

The dynamic scans in the temperature range 20°–300°C were analyzed to estimate the activation energy and the order of reaction for the curing process using some empirical relations. The activation energy for the various epoxy systems is observed in the range 71.9–110.2 kJ·mol−1. The cured epoxy resins were studied for kinetics of thermal degradation by thermogravimetry in a static air atmosphere at a heating rate of 10 deg·min−1. The thermal degradation reactions were found to proceed in a single step having an activation energy in the range 27.6–51.4 kJ·mol−1.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Mittels DSC wurden im Temperaturbereich 348–373 K Reaktionsweg und Kinetik der radikalischen Raumpolymerisation vonp-Alkylphenylmethacrylaten mit AIBN Initiator untersucht. Dabei wurden die Polymerisationsenthalpie, der Monomerrest-gehalt als auch die Geschwindigkeitskonstanten und die Aktivierungsenergien der Gesamt-reaktion bestimmt. Ähnliche Werte für die Gesamtgeschwindigkeitskonstanten weisen darauf hin, daß die relativ kleinen Alkylsubstituenten inp-Stellung des Phenylringes die Polymerisationsgeschwindigkeit nur in sehr kleinem Maße — wenn überhaupt — beeinflussen.
    Notes: Abstract The course and kinetics of free radical polymerization in bulk ofp-alkylphenyl methacrylates with AIBN initiator were studied by DSC, in the temperature range 348–373 K. The enthalpy of polymerization, the residual monomer content, as well as the overall reaction rate constants and the activation energies were determined. The similar values of the overall rate constants indicate that the relatively small alkyl substituents inp-position of the phenyl ring affect the polymerization rate to a very small, if any, extent.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die im allgemeinen benutzte Kinetikgleichung in der Thermoanalyse von Ölschieferpyrolyse wurde auf der Grundlage einer einfachen kinetischen Gleichung erster Ordnung der Kerogenzersetzung erhalten. Mittels nichtisothermer (NI) oder isothermer (I) TG kann sowohl die Aktivierungsenergie als auch die Reaktionsgeschwindigkeitskonstante der Ölschieferpyrolyse bestimmt werden. Die unter Anwendung von NI oder I ermittelten kinetischen Parameter ermöglichen jedoch keine gute Voraussage des Kerogenumsatzes bei anderen Bedingungen. Es werden hier die Vergleichsergebnisse aus NI- bzw. I-TG von verschiedenen Ölschiefern als auch die Auswirkungen auf die sogenannte kombinierte nichtisotherme und isotherme TG (NI/I) besprochen. Die erhaltenen Ergebnisse zeigen, daß ein Mechanismus angenommen werden muß, der auf einem komplexen Reaktionsschema aus mehr als aus einer einfachen Reaktion basiert.
    Notes: Abstract The kinetic expression commonly used in the thermal analysis of oil shale pyrolysis was derived on the basis of a simple first order kinetic equation of kerogen decomposition. The activation energy, as well as the reaction rate constant of oil shale pyrolysis could be determined by using non-isothermal (NI) or isothermal (I) TG. However, the kinetic parameters determined by using either NI or I did not enable the good prediction of the kerogen conversion at other conditions. The comparative results of the NI and I-TG of different oil shales are discussed in the study, as well as the effects of the so-called combined non-isothermal and isothermal TG (NI/I). The obtained results indicate that a mechanism must be postulated based on a complex reaction scheme which involves more than one simple reaction.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Mittels isothermer Gravimetrie und bei verschiedenen Wasserdampfdrücken zwischen 5×10−4 und 8 Torr wurde die Kinetik der thermischen Dehydratation von Yttriumformiat-Dihydrat untersucht. Die Dehydratation wird als dreidimensionale Phasengrenzreaktion R3 beschrieben. Dabei wurde ein ungewöhnlicher Einfluß des athmosphärischen Wasserdampfdruckes auf die Dehydratationsgesch windigkeit beobachtet: mit steigendem Wasserdampfdruck wächst die Geschwindigkeit zunächst ebenfalls an, durchquert ein Maximum und sinkt dann nach und nach auf einen konstanten Wert ab. Diese Erscheinung ähnelt dem Smith-Topley-Effekt. Der Mechanismus dieser Erscheinung kann auf der Grundlage der Kristallinität der dehydratierten Produktephase diskutiert werden.
    Notes: Abstract The kinetics of the thermal dehydration of yttrium formate dihydrate was studied by means of isothermal gravimetry under various water vapour pressures from 5×10−4 to 8 torr. On the whole, the dehydration was described as the three dimensional phase boundary reaction, R3. An unusual dependence of the rate of dehydration on the atmospheric water vapour pressure was observed: with increasing water vapour pressure, the rate increased at first, passed through a maximum, and then decreased gradually to a constant value. These phenomena were similar to the Smith-Topley effect. The mechanism of the phenomena can be described on the basis of the crystallinity of the dehydrated product phase.

Der Prozentsatz der Dehydroxylierung wurde durch Veränderung der Verweilzeit im Ofen, durch Ofentemperatur und/oder Heizgeschwindigkeit modifiziert. Diese Kalzinationsbedingungen beeinflußten zwar die Reaktionskinetik, aber die Produkte hingen nur vom Ausmaß der Dehydroxylierung ab. Abweichungen bei Lage und Enthalpie der endothermen Umwandlung zu Metakaolinit und die exotherme Hochtemperaturreaktion von Metakaolinit wurden mittels DSC der Blitz-Kalzinationsprodukte verfolgt und in Beziehung zur Thermogravimetrie gebracht. 27Al Magic-Angle-Spinning NMR Spektren bei hohen magnetischen Feldstärken und Drehgeschwindigkeiten erlauben es, die Reaktion von Kaolinit zu verfolgen und liefern neue Informationen über die Natur der bei der Dehydroxylierung gebildeten Substanzen.
    Notes: Abstract The structural changes occurring during the dehydroxylation of kaolinite have been followed using flash calcination to produce kinetically frozen calcines. The percentage of dehydroxylation was varied by changing the furnace residence time or temperature and/or heating speed. These calcination conditions affected the reaction kinetics, but the products depended only on the extent of dehydroxylation. Changes in the position and enthalpy of the endothermic transformation to metakaolinite and the high temperature exothermic reaction of metakaolinite have been followed using Differential Scanning Calorimetry of the flash calcines and related to Thermogravimetry. 27Al magic-angle-spinning NMR spectra, at high magnetic fields and spin rates, enabled the reaction of kaolinite to be monitored and provides new information on the nature of the species formed in the course of dehydration.

Die Experimente wurden mit Hilfe eines schweizer Universal Mettler Thermoanalysators, ausgerüstet mit einem SHT Super-Hochtemperatur-Ofen, ausgeführt. Flüchtige Produkte wurden simultan dazu mit einem Massenspektrometer QMG-101 der Balzers-Company analysiert. Die Auswertung der durch aufgezeichneten TG-, DTG-, DTA- und EGA-Kurven zeigt den komplexen Charakter des untersuchten Prozesses. Die Elementarschritte der Gesamtreaktion wurden definiert und berücksichtigt. Weiterhin wurde der Mechanismus der Thermodissoziation von ZrO2 auch in Abhängigkeit von der Aufheizgeschwindigkeit diskutiert.
    Notes: Abstract The behaviour of zirconium oxide ZrO2 during its heating in the temperature range 300–2670 K under high-vacuum conditions and at different heating rates has been studied. The experiments were performed with a Swiss made Universal Mettler thermoanalyser equipped with a super-high-temperature furnace SHT. Volatile products were analyzed simultaneously by means of a Balzers QMG-101 mass spectrometer. An analysis of the TG, DTG, DTA and EGA curves recorded simultaneously has shown the complex character of the studied process. The elementary steps of the overall process were defined and taken into consideration. The mechanism of the thermal dissociation reaction of ZrO2 as function of the hearing rate was discussed too.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Beim Verlauf von Feststoffreaktionen spielen Wärme- und Gastransport eine wesentliche Rolle. Eine Standardisierung der experimentellen Bedingungen wäre deshalb erforderlich, was jedoch bisher nur bezüglich der Erarbeitung von Simultantechniken gelang. Au\erdem sind diese beiden Transportprozesse dafür verantwortlich, da\ man ausgehend von nichtisothermen Kurven keine kinetischen Parameter berechnen kenn. Quasistatische Methoden scheinen geeignet zu sein, um den störenden Einflu\ dieser Transportprozesse zu eliminieren.
    Notes: Abstract In the course of solid phase reactions heat and gas transport processes play a dominant role. Therefore, it would be necessary to standardize the experimental conditions which succeeded only in part with the elaboration of the simultaneous techniques. Likewise the two transport processes are responsible for the fact that on the basis of non-isothermal curves one cannot calculate kinetic parameters of the reactions. The quasi static-methods seem to be suitable for the elimination of the pernicious effect of these transport processes.

The values ofE for PC-M are the highest, due to shielding of the ester linkages by the ortho-methyl substituents.

Die thermische Dehydratation erfolgt in einem Schritt, bestimmt durch ein Random-Keimbildungsmodell (A3), während die Zersetzung der wasserfreien Salze durch ein phasengrenzenkontrolliertes Modell bestimmt wird (R3). Die bei drei Aufheizgeschwindigkeiten erhaltenen kinetischen Parameter stehen in guter Übereinstimmung; jedoch weichen die isotherm geschätzten kinetischen Parameter etwas von den dynamisch ermittelten ab. Bestrahlung mehrt sowohl die Dehydratations- als auch die Zersetzungsreaktionen, beläßt deren Mechanismus jedoch unverändert. Die Aktivierungsenergie sinkt mit zunehmender Strahlungsdosis.
    Notes: Abstract A kinetic study of the dehydration and decomposition of γ-irradiated and unirradiated Na2[Co(C4H4O4)2]·7H2O has been studied using isothermal and dynamic thermogravimetric methods. The thermal dehydration occurs in one step regulated by a random nucleation model (A3), while the decomposition of anhydrous salt is controlled by a phase boundary controlled model (R3). The kinetic parameters obtained at three heating rates are in good agreement; however, the values of the kinetic parameters estimated isothermally are slightly different from those estimated dynamically. Irradiation enhanced both the dehydration and the decomposition reactions but did not modify their mechanisms. The activation energy decreases as the irradiation dose increases.

    Notes: Abstract For the kinetic description of the solid-state reactions, the dependence of the apparent kinetic parameters on the sample mass and/or particle size is discussed mathematically in relation to some problems on the fractional conversion a. As for the reaction proceeding according to the contracting geometry model, the use of the specific rate constant, independent of the sample mass and particle size, is recommended to obtain the sample mass-independent Arrhenius parameters. It is also pointed out that the distribution of α within the assembly of sample particles disturbs the successful use of α in the kinetic description of the solid-state reactions.

The values obtained from Kissinger equation of the activation energy for crystallization are comparable with those obtained by other authors for similar glassy systems, 90 to 150 kcal/mol. The results of the kinetic analysis using single-crystallization-peak method should be corrected taking into account the dimensionality of crystal growth.

Small variations in the structure of the components of a class make larger variations in the thermodynamic and kinetic values being in close agreement with the observed differences in their biological behaviour.

Die mit der Flynn-Wall Methode bestimmte Gesamtenergie des thermischen Abbaues steigt mit wachsendem Chlorgehalt des Polymers, wenn der Abbau ohne Sauerstoff erfolgt. In Gegenwart von Sauerstoff wird dieser Trend genau umgekehrt. Mittels DTG konnten die zwei wichtigsten nichtoxidativen Thermolysereaktionen, Depolymerisierung und Vernetzung, als kompetitive Reaktionen nachgewiesen werden. Ganz allgemein wird die thermische Stabilität der untersuchten Polymere durch Sauerstoff herabgesetzt.
    Notes: Abstract The thermal degradation kinetics of poly(2-mono-, 2,2-di- and 2,2,2-trichlorethyl methacrylate) and of the non-chlorinated poly(ethyl methacrylate) were studied by TG in the absence and presence of oxygen. The overall thermal degradation energy, determined by the Flynn-Wall method, increases with increasing chlorine content of the polymer when the degradation is performed in the absence of oxygen, while the trend is reversed in the presence of oxygen. Competition between the two major non-oxidative thermolysis reactions, depolymerization and crosslinking, could be monitored by DTG. Generally, the thermal stability of the investigated polymers is reduced by oxygen.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Meso-Lithiumkaliumtartrat-Dihydrat schmilzt noch vor der Dehydratation, eine kinetische Untersuchung dieser Reaktion wurde vollzogen. Dieses System ist interessant für die Abschätzung kinetischer Parameter von Prozessen mit gleichbleibender Geschwindigkeit ohne Gegenwart zugesetzter Lösungsmittel. Die Ergebnisse sind von Interesse bei überlegungen zu Mechanismen von Feststoffreaktionen oder Reaktionen im kondensierten Zustand, bei denen Schmelzen als Möglichkeit auftritt. Die Freisetzung der ersten 1.2 H2O aus den Einkristall-Dihydratreaktanden ist eine Reaktion nullter Ordnung, anschlie\end wird die Geschwindigkeit verlangsamt und unterliegt bis 1.6 H2O einem Ausdruck erster Ordnung. Der Vorgang weist eine hohe Aktivierungsenergie auf: 23010 kJ/mol (bei 350–380 K). Die Freisetzung des restlichen Wassers erfolgt in einer langsameren Reaktion erster Ordnung, man erhält das wasserfreie Salz. Die Dehydratation von zerkleinerten pulverisierten Reaktanden verlief anfangs relativ schneller, verlangsamt dann jedoch ganz und gar und unterliegt einer ersten Reaktionsordnung. Es wird geschlu\folgert, da\ die Dehydratation des Salzes durch die Freisetzungsgeschwindigkeit des Wassers an der Oberfläche kontrolliert wird, wobei das Wasser innerhalb der Reaktionsschmelze relativ beweglich ist.
    Notes: Abstract Meso lithium potassium tartrate dihydrate melted before dehydration and a kinetic study of this reaction has been completed. This system is of interest in establishing the kinetic characteristics of a homogeneous rate process in the absence of added solvent. Results are of interest in considering the mechanisms of solid or condensed state reactions where melting is a possibility. The evolution of the initial 1.2H2O from the single crystal dihydrate reactants was zero order, the rate then became deceleratory and the first order expression was obeyed to 1.6H2O. The activation energy of the process was high, 230±10 kJ mol−1 (350–380 K). Evolution of the remaining water occurred by a slower first-order process to give the anhydrous salt. The dehydration of crushed powder reactant was initially relatively more rapid but was deceleratory throughout, obeying the first order equation. It is concluded that salt dehydration is controlled by the rate of surface release of water that is comparatively mobile within the reactant melt.

    Notes: Abstract The Arrhenius parameters and kinetic obedience were determined by TG at constant temperatures as well as at linearly increasing temperatures for the thermal decomposition of sodium hydrogencarbonate. Effects of the sample size (0.5–10 mg) and the particle size on the rate behavior were examined. With such a sample size smaller than ca. 5 mg, an effect of the heating rate was not so critical as is the case with the larger sample size. The Arrhenius parameters and kinetic obedience determined by use of the Ozawa method were in excellent agreement with those determined isothermally. The activation energyE determined with ca. 1 mg of sample was nearly constant independently of the fractional reactiona. Any change in the Arrhenius parameters with different experimental conditions was dicussed in connection with the kinetic compensation effect.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Integrationsmethoden zur Berechnung kinetischer Parameter von heterogenen Reaktionen unter nicht isothermen Bedingungen werden im allgemeinen nach der Methode der kleinsten Quadrate erarbeitet und der ermittelte Korrelationskoeffizient dient als ein Kriterium für die Auswahl der besten Integrationsmethode. Mittels drei verschiedenen Integrationsmethoden wurde eine Analyse verschiedener experimenteller Daten durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß dieses Kriterium allein nicht ausreicht, um ausreichende Informationen über die kinetischen Parameter zu liefern. Es scheint deshalb, daß die Verwendung der einen oder anderen Integrationsmethode einfach eine Wahl des Anwenders darstellt.
    Notes: Abstract The integral methods proposed to compute the kinetic parameters of heterogeneous reactions under non-isothermal conditions are usually worked by the help of the least squares method and the obtained correlation coefficient is taken as a criterion to choose the best integral method. An analysis of several experimental data by mean of three different integral methods was performed by us and the results pointed out that this criterion, by itself, is not enough to provide reliable information on the kinetic parameters. It appears, thus, that the use of an integral method or another is a simple matter of researcher's choice.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Mittels nichtisothermer und auch isothermer TG wurde die nichtoxidative thermische Zersetzungskinetik von Poly(di-n-alkylitakonaten) untersucht, dabei bewegt sich die Länge der Alkylkette von Methyl bisn-Oktyl. Die Aktivierungsenergie der thermischen Zersetzung und die charakteristischen Masseverlusttemperaturen nehmen mit steigender Substituentlänge ab. Aussehen der DTG-Kurven hängt von der Größe der Alkylkette ab. Die verschiedenen DTG-Maxima wurden verschiedenen Initiierungs schritten der Depolymerisierung zugeschrieben. Man fand, daß im Intervall Mw zwischen 104 und 107 g·mol die thermische Stabilität der Poly(di-n-hexylitakonate) unabhängig von der anfänglichen molaren Masse der Probe ist.
    Notes: Abstract The non-oxidative thermal degradation kinetics of poly(di-n-alkyl itaconates), ranging from the methyl to then-octyl derivatives, were studied by non-isothermal and isothermal TG. The thermal degradation activation energy and characteristic mass loss temperatures were found to decrease with increasing substituent size. The shapes of the DTG curves were dependent on the size of the alkyl substituent. The different DTG maxima were ascribed to various modes of initiation of depolymerisation. The thermal stability of poly(di-n-hexyl itaconate) was found to be independent of the initial molar mass of the sample in the range ofM w from 104 to 107 g/mol.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wird eine Methode zur Bestimmung der enzymatischen Aktivität des Trichoderma viridae Zellulase Komplexes beschrieben. Dazu wurde ein LKB 2277 Thermoaktivitätsmonitor und ein kontinuierlicher Flüsigkeitsmischer verwendet. Bei der Bestimmung der enzymatischen Aktivität von Proben des rohen Zellulasekomplexes wurden drei Substanzen verwendet: Zellobiose, Karboxymethylzellulose (CMC) und Hemizellulose. Anhand der Ergebnisse wurden einige kinetische Parameter für die Zellobiaseaktivität ermittelt. Außerdem wurde eine Endprodukt-Inhibition von Zellobiase sowie Karboxymethylzellulaseaktivität durch Glukose beobachtet. Das beschriebene Verfahren erlaubt eine direkte Bestimmung der verschiedenen Enzymaktivitäten des Zellulasekomplexes. Wegen ihrer hohen Empfindlichkeit und Einfachheit handelt es sich hier um ein sehr nützliches Werkzeug zur Untersuchung des Zellulasekomplexes, indem die optimalen Bedingungen für die enzymatische Spaltung zelluloser Substanzen bestimmt und verschiedene Mechanismen von Feedback-Kontrolle durch die Produkte der Enzymtätigkeit beobachtet werden. Das Verfahren trägt vollkommen allgemeinen Charakter und kann auch bei anderen Ezymsystemen Anwendung finden.
    Notes: Abstract A method for measuring enzymatic activities of the Trichoderma viridae cellulase complex is described. The LKB 2277 Thermal activity monitor and a flow-mix mode were used. Enzymatic activities of samples of a crude cellulose complex have been determined using three substrates: cellobiose, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and xylan. Some kinetic constants for cellobiase activity have been evaluated from the obtained results. A process of the end-product inhibition of cellobiase resp. carboxymethyl cellulase activity by glucose has been observed too. The described method allows a direct determination of various enzymatic activities of the cellulase complex. Because of the high sensitivity and the simplicity, the method is a very suitable tool for studying the cellulase complex, determining the optimal conditions of enzymatic break-down of the cellulosic materials and observing various mechanisms of the feed-back control by products of enzymatic action. The procedure is completely general in nature and is applicable to other enzymatic systems.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Mittels isothermer und dynamischer TG wurde im Graphit-Eisen(III)oxidsystem in Luft der Einfluß von60Co-Gammastrahlung und von verschiedenen Probenzusammensetzungen auf die Reduktion von Hämatit zu Eisen untersucht. Entsprechend verschiedener theoretischer Modelle heterogener Reaktionen wurde eine kinetische Analyse der isothermen Daten durchgeführt und die Ergebnisse zeigten, daß das dreidimensionale Phasengrenzenmodell die beste Übereinstimmung liefert. Die Analyse der dynamischen TG-Daten wurde mittels der Integralmethode von Ozawa, der Coats-Redfem-Methode und einer zusammengesetzten Methode auf der Grundlage der modifizierten Coats und Redfern Gleichung durchgeführt. Die Aktivierungsparameter wurden berechnet und die Ergebnisse der verschiedenen Methoden miteinander verglichen und diskutiert. Strahlung scheint keine Änderung des Reaktionsmodelles oder des Mechanismus hervorzurufen. Durch Bestrahlung gibt es aber ein Absinken der Aktivierungsenergie und des Frequenzfaktors sowie ein Absinken der Halbwertszeit der Reaktion, was bei höheren Temperaturen und höherer Dosis bemerkenswert groß ist.
    Notes: Abstract The effects of60Co-gamma radiation and of various sample composition on the reduction of hematite to iron in the graphite-iron(III) oxide system in air were studied using isothermal and dynamic TG techniques. Kinetic analysis of isothermal data were performed according to various theoretical models of heterogeneous reactions and the results showed that the three-dimensional phase boundary model gives the best fit of data. Analysis of dynamic TG data were made using Ozawa integral method, Coats-Redfern method and a composite method based on the modified Coats and redfern equation. The activation parameters were calculated and the results of the different methods were compared and discussed. Radiation apparently did not introduce a change in the reaction model or mechanism. However, there is a decrease in activation energy and frequency factor upon irradiation and a decrease in the half-life time of the reaction which is remarkable at the higher temperatures and higher doses.

Die Daten ergaben, daß ein Harz-Polyamid-Verhältnis von 100∶40 bzw. 100∶50 das Optimum zu sein scheint, bei dem die Aushärtung am größten ist. Mittels isothermer und dynamischer DSC-Methoden wurden die kinetischen Parameter für diese Ansätze ermittelt. Unter Anwendung der isothermen DSC-Methode im Temperaturbereich 70°–90°C wurde die Geschwindigkeitskonstante für den Aushärtungsprozeß dieser Ansätze ermittelt. Diese wurden mittels Extrapolation der erhaltenen Angaben für höhere Temperaturen auch für die Temperatur 201°C (Raumtemperatur) vorhergesagt. Vorhergesagte und experimentell ermittelte Werte stehen in guter Übereinstimmung zueinander.
    Notes: Abstract The optimization of proportions of novolac epoxy resin, Dobeckot E4 and polyamide hardener, EH411 has been established by DSC and the data indicates that resin-polyamide, 100∶40 and 100∶50, appear to be optimum where ‘extent of cure’ is maximum. The kinetic parameters for these formulations have been evaluated using isothermal and dynamic modes by employing DSC. The rate constants have been evaluated for curing process of these formulations using isothermal DSC mode in the temperature range of 70°–90°C. These have also been predicted at 20°±1°C (room temperature) by extrapolating the data obtained at elevated temperatures. A comparison of the predicted values with the experimental values shows that there is a good agreement between them.

    Notes: Abstract The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is the most important regulator of electrolyte homeostasis and blood pressure. Our recently generated transgenic mice carrying either the human renin (hREN) or human angiotensinogen (hANG) genes did not develop hypertension but dual gene strains obtained by cross-mating separate lines of mice exhibited a chronically sustained increase in blood pressure, suggesting the presence of species-specific reactivity between renin and angiotensinogen. In order to examine this specificity, the present study was designed to perform a strictly comparative study on hydrolysis of hANG by hREN and mouse submandibular renin (mREN)in vitro by using pure proteins. The recombinant hANG (rhANG) and the synthetic human-type tridecapeptide (hTDP), Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe-His-Leu-Val-Ile-His, corresponding to the N-terminal sequences of hANG, were used to determine the species specificity of recombinant hREN (rhREN) and mREN. While hTDP was cleaved by both rhREN with similar Km and with the same order of kcat, rhANG was cleaved by mREN with 16.7-fold higher Km and with 28.2-fold lower kcat than by rhREN. These results showed that kcat/Km value of mREN for rhANG was 468-fold lower than that for rhREN acting on rhANG.

    Notes: Abstract Gravimetric measurements at low temperatures (〈600°C) and for dilute Ag-Mg alloys have given further information about the mechanism of oxide formation. This investigation shows that the fixation rate of oxygen is very high, which assumes the existence of species in an oxidized form, including one or two magnesium atoms called “elementary species” and denoted as MgO* and Mg2O*. When there are no free magnesium atoms, there is a coalescence process with the fixation of oxygen atoms or MgO* and Mg2O*: this process leads to the formation of the first “clusters” including an oxygen excess. At low temperatures, the thermal fluctuations do not permit significant changes. There is no significant increase in cluster size, but a rearrangement of these clusters toward a compact structure with the release of excess oxygen. Their size is less than 1 nm.

    Notes: Abstract The oxidation kinetics of zirconium-hydride powders were studied in the temperature range of 298–1378 in air at atmospheric pressure. TG, DTA, DSC, x-ray analysis, and scanning electron microscopy were used. The results obtained are in accordance with the proposed pseudo-parabolic model of zirconium-hydride oxidation. This model includes the initial linear mode of oxide growth with oxygen diffusion through a non-solid film of ZrO2 of variable depth and a stationary diffusion process followed by oxide sintering. It has been established that the activation energy of the limiting stage of oxidation (238.3 kJ/mol) coincides with the activation energy of oxygen self-diffusion in monocline ZrO2.

    Notes: Summary We describe the kinetic modifications to mitochondrial-membrane-bound phosphate-dependent glutaminase in various types of rat tissue brought about by acute metabolic acidosis. The activity response of phosphate-dependent glutaminase to glutamine was sigmoidal, showing positive co-operativity, the Hill coefficients always being higher than 2. The enzyme from acidotic rats showed increased activity at subsaturating concentrations of glutamine in kidney tubules, as might be expected, but not in brain, intestine or liver tissues. Nevertheless, when brain and intestine from control rats were incubated in plasma from acutely acidotic rats enzyme activity increased at 1 mM glutamine in the same way as in kidney cortex. The enzyme from liver tissue remained unaltered. S0.5 and nH values decreased significantly in kidney tubules, enterocytes and brain slices preincubated in plasma from acidotic rats. The sigmoidal curves of phosphate-dependent glutaminase shifted to the left without any significant changes in Vmax. The similar response of phosphate-dependent glutaminase to acute acidosis in the kidney, brain and intestine confirms the fact that enzymes from these tissues are kinetically identical and reaffirms the presence of an ammoniagenic factor in plasma, either produced or concentrated in the kidneys of rats with acute acidosis.

    Notes: Abstract The corrosion of chromium and manganese by pure SO2 has been investigated in the temperature range 890–1350 K at SO2 pressure from 0.01–0.5 atm. Both metals oxidize according to a parabolic rate law, and the scales consist of an inner region containing a mixture of oxide and sulfide (Cr2O3+ CrS or MnO and MnS) and an outer region of oxide (Cr2O3 or MnO). These two metals have similar thermodynamic behavior, and the main mechanism of reaction is considered to be the direct reaction of the metal with SO2. The results also indicate that in the absence of trace amounts of oxygen, and at sufficiently low temperature (〈950 K), the formation of Mn3O4 does not occur only if a complete description of the atmosphere generated by a SO2-O2-S2 mixture was considered.

    Notes: Abstract The nonisothermal oxidation behavior of pure iron and a few iron-chromium alloys in dry air has been studied. The effects of a superficial coating of a reactive oxide, CeO2, on the oxidation behavior were studied. Linear heating rates of 3 K/min and 6 K/min were maintained up to a final temperature ranging from 1273–1473 K. Coatings were applied either from a slurry or an aqueous bath. The CeO2 coating has been found to be effective not only in decreasing the nonisothermal oxidation rate but also in improving the scale adherence. Moreover, the coated samples withstood a number of heating cycles without scale rupture. The mass gain of the samples as a function of temperature was recorded by means of a sensitive balance, and the scales have been characterized by SEM, EPMA, and x-ray diffraction analysis.

    Notes: Abstract The internal-nitriding behavior in ammonia-hydrogen atmospheres of type-310 stainless steel and 310 to which either 2 wt.% Ti or 3 wt.% Al were added was studied over the range of 550–950°C. An Fe-24Cr binary alloy was included to assess the role of a BCC crystal structure vs the FCC crystal structure of 310 stainless steel. The BCC alloy exhibited the most rapid kinetics as expected. X-ray diffraction showed only the presence of CrN in all the alloys up to 735°C. At 850°C and above, both CrN and Cr2N were detected. The nonformation of TiN and AlN at lower temperatures is attributed to nucleation problems. Precipitates were extremely fine (unresolvable even at 20,000×) at 563°C and became much coarser with increasing temperature. The precipitate density, size, and shape varied across the internal-nitriding zone at the higher temperatures. External scaling was noted at 850°C and above, however, it was not a continuous film. The activation energy of internal nitriding from 563–735°C ranged from 3.8 kcal/mol for 310+2Ti to 18.2 kcal/mol for 310+3Al; from 850–950°C, the activation energy ranged from 44 (310+2Ti) to 56.6 kcal/mol (310+3Al). Microhardness profiles show that an intermediate zone exists between the nitride case and the base metal. The origin of this zone is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract The oxidation behavior in air of pure vanadium, V-30Al, V-30Al-10Cr, and V-30Al-10Ti (weight percent) was investigated over the temperature range of 700–1000° C. The oxidation of pure vanadium was characterized by linear kinetics due to the formation of liquid V2O5 which dripped from the sample. The oxidation behavior of the alloys was characterized by linear and parabolic kinetics which combined to give an overall time dependence of 0.6–0.8. An empirical relationship of the form: ΔW/A=Bt + Ct1/2 + D was found to fit the data well, with the linear contribution suspected to be from V2O5 formation for V-30Al and V-30Al-10Cr, and a semi-liquid mixture of V2O5 and Al2O3 for V-30Al-10Ti. The parabolic term is presumed related to the formation of a solid mixture of V2O5 and Al2O3 for V-30Al and V-30Al-10Cr, and TiO2 for V-30Al-10Ti The addition of aluminum was found to reduce the oxidation rate of vanadium, but not to the extent predicted by the theory of competing oxide phases proposed by Wang, Gleeson, and Douglass. This was attributed to the formation of a liquid-oxide phase in the initial stages of exposure from which the alloys could not recover. Ternary additions of chromium and titanium were found to decrease the oxidation rate further, with chromium being the most effective. The oxide scales of the alloys were found to be highly porous at 900° C and 1000° C, due to the high vapor pressure of V2O5 above 800° C.

    Notes: Abstract To clarify the mechanism of plasma nitriding, we examined the optical microstructure, the hardness, the precipitation, and the concentration of dissolved nitrogen in Fe-18Cr-9Ni nitrided using plasma in the range of 723–823 K. Compared with ammonia-gas nitriding, the features of plasma nitriding are the formation of small chromium-nitride precipitates (CrN), the absence of an externally nitrided layer, the high concentration of dissolved nitrogen, and the high hardness (HV=1200). The diffusion coefficient of nitrogen in the present alloy was determined using the growth rate of the internally nitrided layer, based on calculations used in internal oxidation. Plasma- and gas-nitriding were also compared with respect to the growth rate of the nitrided layer.

    Notes: Abstract The oxidation of niobium at high temperature (900°C) leads to reaction products with “exotic” morphologies. Morphological and kinetics analysis have been undertaken with Nb platelets. A growth mechanism of the oxide at the edges of the platelet is proposed.

    Notes: Abstract The oxidation kinetics of zirconium of different purities were studied over the temperature range of 600–1300°C (α- and β-phases). The structure of the oxidized specimens was examined. TGA, XRD, EPMA, SEM, metallographic analysis, and microhardness measurements were carried out. Impurity elements were found to increase the oxidation rate of technical zirconium. The mechanism of the effect of impurity elements on zirconium oxidation was shown to differ for the α- and β-phases. Activation energies were calculated for the parabolic and linear stages of oxidation.

    Notes: Abstract The oxidation kinetics of hafnium of different purities were studied in the temperature range of 800–1200°C. This paper concerns the structure studies of the oxidized samples. TGA, XRD, SEM methods, and microhardness measurements were used. Hafnium oxidation follows the parabolic rate law, changing with time to the linear one. Oxidation-reaction products are HfO2(moncl) and α-solid solution of oxygen in hafnium. Anomalous oxidation behavior of hafnium having a high impurity content was found in the range 800–950°C. Activation energies for the parabolic and linear oxidation stages were calculated.

    Notes: Abstract In this minireview, we summarize recent advances on the enzymology of ADP-ribose polymer synthesis. First, a short discussion of the primary structure and cloning of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) [EC 2.4.2.30], the enzyme that catalyzes, the synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose), is presented. A catalytic distinction between the multiple enzymatic activities of PARP is established. The direction of ADP-ribose chain growth as well as the molecular mechanism of the automodification reaction catalyzed by PARP are described. Current approaches to dissect ADP-ribose polymer synthesis into individual reactions of initiation, elongation and branching, as well as a partial mechanistic characterization of the ADP-ribose elongation reaction at he chemical level are also presented. Finally, recent developments in the catalytic characterization of PARP by site-directed mutagensis are also briefly summarized.
