    Notes: Abstract The use of light traps in sampling moth populations is an established technique used by entomologists and ecologists. However, trap data partly reflect the variable attractiveness of UV light to different species of moth. There are also potential problems of the practicality and expense of running traps in certain locations. An alternative method of recording moth populations is developed, using a modification of the transect count technique used for butterflies (Pollard and Yates, 1993) and recently applied to moths (Spalding, 1997). During transects, moths were observed by torch-light in a 5 by 5 m box, before the recorder walked on for 10 paces, and recorded moths in the next 5 m box. The transect approach was tested in the field, alongside traditional light trap and sugar methods. Transects recorded moth species for relatively little effort, produced repeatable measures of relative density, and provided habitat-specific data. This approach is likely to provide a valuable addition to light trapping in biodiversity inventories, species surveys, and in monitoring the effects of habitat management for conservation.

    Notes: Abstract We use data from the Mersey Valley zone (3×2 km area; N = 600 I ha squares) of the Greater Manchester butterfly atlas to investigate whether recorder visits are biased by access (viz. distance from recorder's home base) and by the locations of potential hot spots. In a multiple regression analysis, visits were found to correlate significantly both with distance from home base of the recorder and with the mean and maximum number of species found in squares. Sites close to the home base of the recorder were visited more frequently than those further afield and squares with more species were visited more frequently than those squares with fewer species. Visits were also made significantly more frequently to squares with greater numbers of butterfly resources (e.g. hostplants, nectar). Furthermore, recording is biased to and away from distinct land uses, which vary significantly in species richness. Reasons are given why these biases are to be expected at all scales. The message is that future distribution mapping should be based on rigorous sampling approaches.

    Notes: Abstract The addition of species to the European butterfly list since 1983 has resulted in a number of highly significant changes. Most important are the increases in the number and proportion of endemics and of rare species, and a regional excess of species and endemics for southern Europe compared to northern Europe. There is also a surplus of Lycaenidae and Satyridae compared to other families, and an increase in species per genus associated with the reduction in genera. These additions raise two issues. First, the potential conservation load for European butterflies is inflated at species level. This is especially the case for southern Europe, which has disproportionate increases in rare and endemic species, more particularly if rarity and endemism are found to equate with threat of extinction. Second, the inflation in rarity and endemism suggests that there is a trend to promote ever more local populations (races, subspecies) to species. The taxonomic status of species being added to the list, a quarter of which are regarded as doubtful, is increasingly difficult to determine. Consequently, there is a danger that this may call into question the validity and objectivity of taxonomic practices, and of databases dependent on them, used by conservation. Revision of higher and lower butterfly taxa is urgently required.

    Notes: Abstract Data from the Greater Manchester Butterfly Atlas (UK) reveal a highly significant and substantial impact of visits on both species' richness and species' incidence in squares. This effect has been demonstrated for three different zones mapped at different scales. The significant impact of number of visits persists when data are amalgamated for coarser scales. The findings demonstrate that it is essential for distribution mapping projects to record data on recording effort as well as on the target organisms. Suggestions are made as to how distribution mapping may be improved, including a geographically and environmentally representative structure of permanently monitored squares and closer links between distribution mapping and the Butterfly Monitoring Scheme (BMS), which primarily monitors changes in butterfly populations. The benefit to conservation will be data that can be better used to analyse the reasons for changes in ranges and distributions, fundamental for determining priorities and policy decisions.

    Notes: Abstract The ratio of hapten and bovine serum albumin in antigen conjugate was exactly determined by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry. Monoclonal antibodies against thebaine and codeine were produced by hybridoma fused with the sprenocytes immunized with thebaine- and codeine-bovine serum albumin conjugate and HAT-sensitive mouse myeloma cell line, P3-X63-Ag8-653. No cross-reaction of anti-thebaine antibody against morphine was observed. Very small cross-reaction appeared in codeine (0.004%). The cross-reaction of anti-codeine antibody against morphine and thebaine was 2.97 and 5.98%, respectively. The full measuring range of the assay extends from 60 pg mL to 1 ng mL for thebaine and 1 ng mL to 100 ng mL for codeine.

    Notes: Abstract Mouse-human hybridoma X87X cells were cultivated using a novel perfusion culture apparatus provided with three-settling zones to separate the cells from the culture medium by gravitational settling. The maximum viable cell density in a serum-free culture medium attained 3.0×107 cells/ml, when the specific perfusion rate was set to 2.3 vol day-1, and monoclonal antibody was continuously produced. These results were almost the same as those in the perfusion culture vessel with one settling zone and revealed that the process with a plurality of settling zones is a promising one for scale-up of a gravitation type of perfusion culture vessel.

    Notes: Abstract A small amount of swine serum markedly stimulated cell growth for high productivity subclones derived from a mouse human-human heterohybridoma, N12-16.63, secreting an anti-tetanus toxoid human monoclonal antibody in a polyethylene glycol (PEG)-containing serum-free medium, PEG-86-1. A growth promoting substance, SSGF-I, was isolated from the serum by ammonium sulfate fractionation, Cibacron blue F3A-G affinity chromatography, DEAE-agarose ion exchange chromatography, and gel filtrations on Trisacryl GF 2000 and Sephacryl S-300. SSGF-I was characterized as a low density lipoprotein (LDL) of swine serum by its physico-chemical properties. It promoted cell growth synergistically with PEG and its optimum concentration was 1 to 100μg/ml. Human LDL was less active, and human or swine high density lipoprotein (HDL) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) were inactive. Based on these results, we propose an improved serum-free medium, PEG-86-3, which contains all the ingredients of PEG-86-1 and 10μg/ml SSGF-I. This medium is useful for not only high productivity heterohybridomas but also for a variety of lymphoid cell lines.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of several different substances, including insulin, transferrin, ethanolamine, selenite and butyrate on the growth of murine hybridoma 2F7 cells, which secrete monoclonal antibody against small cell lung cancer, were investigated, and a serum-free medium SFMI was formulated. The effects of taurine, spermidine, progesterone and adenine on the cell growth were tested further on the basis of the medium SFMI, and a modified serum-free medium SFM II was established. On the basis of medium SFM II, the substitution tests of ferric citrate for transferrin were carried out, and it was found that transferrin could be replaced. The experiments suggested that the formulated serum-free medium was suitable for 2F7 cell growth and monoclonal antibody secretion, and thus facilitated subsequent purification of monoclonal antibody.

    Notes: Abstract Immunoaffinity column using anti-solamargine monoclonal antibody for separation of solasodine glycosides was established. This method was specific for solasodine glycosides which was detected by thin layer chromatography and the western blotting. Total solasodine glycosides have been separated directly from the crude extract of Solanum khasianum fruit by the newly established immunoaffinity column.

    Notes: Abstract Electron microscopy of mouse hybridoma cell lines shows that the major difference between non, low and high producer cell lines is the amount of endoplasmic reticulum. Vesicular-tubular or cavernous structures of endoplasmic reticulum, which can survive long after cell death, are particularly abundant in producer cell lines. Immunogold labelling with anti-mouse IgG reveals that antibodies are predominantly located in these structures. The cell membrane undergoes structural changes during the late stages of batch culture with the disappearance of microvilli and the appearance of blebs and deep indentations. Necrosis disrupts the cytoplasmic structures and the nucleus is last to degrade.
