    Notes: Analogous to the localization of the wave function of an electron in a random potential (Anderson localization), in the macroscopic system of magnetoelastic waves (MEWs) propagating in a highly magnetostrictive string exhibiting the giant ΔE effect, the piling-up of MEWs into a wave-packet in a restricted small region of the string is expected. This wave-packet is subject to hopping in a discontinuous wave by applying a magnetic field due to the change in the local elastic states caused by the ΔE effect. From this expectation, a theoretical analysis was performed focusing on the derivation of localization conditions of MEWs. The analysis was carried out using a one-dimensional string model having high magnetostriction. The string is assumed to be composed of random chains with (1) alloy-type disorder (random weights of masses with equal spacings) and (2) liquid-type disorder (random spacings of masses with equal weights). For the elastic and magnetoelastic constants of the string, the value of Fe78Si10B12 amorphous wire (Unitika) were used in the calculations. No substantial changes in the localization states were not recognized in both modes. The analysis revealed that, when the change of the apparent Young's modulus with magnetic field ΔE is 28%, the localized MEWs are subject to hopping conserving their wave identities (eigenfrequencies and eigenstates). This result in considered to originate from the changes in the disorder conditions to support the localization of MEWs. To confirm the above theoretical prediction experimentally, MEW properties have been measured by using Fe78Si10B12 amorphous wires connecting weights made of leads to form the random chain structure. The localized MEWs are, indeed, observed by detecting the local vibrations of the wires. Theoretical and experimental results will be presented in detail at the conference. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Charged particles in organic polymer plumes photoablated by ultraviolet lasers are measured with a Faraday cup assembly. In spite of a relatively low F2 laser (157 nm) fluence 〈1 J/cm2, relative charged fragment concentrations measured for polyimide, polytetrafluoroethylene, and polyethyleneterephthalate targets are (approximately-greater-than)10−3. Charged particle concentrations in the ablation plumes generated by an F2 laser with polyethyleneterephthalate and polyimide targets are always higher than those in KrF laser (248 nm) ablation plumes at the same specific laser energy deposited on the target. Charged fragments have also higher velocities in the F2 laser ablation plumes. An exponential increase in the charged fragment concentration with increasing laser fluence suggests that the ions are mainly produced through electron-neutral collisions in the hot material core close to the target surface. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Organic thin films of copper-phthalocyanine (CuPc) and aluminum tris-8-hydroxyquinline (Alq3) were fabricated via KrF laser ablation. In spite of poor crystallinity exhibited in the reconstructed organic films, the CuPc film still works as a hole-transport layer in electroluminescence cells based on the CuPc and Alq3 layers. Electroluminescence at ∼500 nm was obtained with a low initiation voltage of ∼12 V. There is no significant difference in electroluminescence performance for devices fabricated via laser ablation and thermal evaporation. Emission at ∼600 nm caused by energy transfer from Alq3 to 4-(Dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-(p-dimethylaminostyryl)-4H-pyran (DCM) is also observed from a DCM-doped Alq3 emission layer. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have developed a very controllable fabrication process of an extremely narrow (∼10 nm) quantum wire metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) on a separation-by-implanted-oxygen (SIMOX) substrate using anisotropic etching and selective oxidation technique. The drain current versus gate voltage characteristics show oscillations caused by Coulomb blockade even at room temperature. The oscillations split into several sharp peaks when the temperature is decreased, indicating that the channel is separated by several serial coupled quantum dots and that the quantum levels of these dots correspond to the observed fine peaks. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Background: Nitric oxide synthase activity is increased in the stomach in association with Helicobacter pylori infection and portal hypertension, but the mechanism by which nitric oxide contributes to mucosal damage remains unclear. Aim: To examine whether nitric oxide injures gastric mucosal cells and whether cellular glutathione affects nitric oxide-induced cytotoxicity. Methods: A confluent monolayer of RGM-1 gastric mucosal cells was exposed to nitric oxide donors (NOC5 or NOC12). Cell viability was determined by trypan blue dye exclusion, lactate dehydrogenase release and supravital staining with Hoechst 33342 and propidium iodide. The kinetics of the reduced/oxidized forms of glutathione were also measured, as well as the effect of glutathione-depletion or glutathione-precursor treatment on nitric oxide-induced cytotoxicity. Results: Excess exogenous nitric oxide produced by NOC5 or NOC12 induced necrosis in RGM-1 cells in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The level of reduced glutathione drastically decreased prior to the loss of cell viability and remained low, but oxidized glutathione was not affected. Glutathione depletion increased necrosis of both NOCs in an NOC-concentration-related fashion, while pre-treatment with γ-glutamylcysteine ethyl ester reduced their necrotic susceptibility. Conclusion: Exogenous nitric oxide induced necrosis in gastric mucosal cells, and intracellular reduced glutathione protects gastric mucosal cells from damage by nitric oxide.

    Notes: Aqueous extracts from the skin mucus of two species of rabbitfishes Siganus fuscescens and S. guttatus showed antibacterial activity against gram-negative bacteria. Stability tests and chromatographic analyses suggested that the S. fuscescens antibacterial factor is an acidic glycoprotein with a molecular mass of 400 kDa.

    Notes: 1. The antihypertensive effects of 10 mg/kg trichloromethiazide (TCM), 10 mg/kg 7–O-ethylfangchinoline (7–O-EFC) and the combination of these drugs given orally once daily for 2 weeks were investigated by measuring the blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR) and activity in conscious, freely moving spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) fitted with a telemetry device.2. Clear diurnal rhythms of the HR and activity in synchrony with the light/dark cycle were observed during therapy, whereas the BP rhythm was obscure.3. Alone, TCM and 7–O-EFC produced slight and insignificant reductions of 24 h mean BP, whereas in combination they produced an additive and significant BP reduction, compared with the vehicle-treated controls, from the third day of therapy. The BP reduction induced by the combination of these drugs during the dark phase was more marked than that during the light phase.4. None of the drug therapies affected the HR and activity diurnal rhythms.5. The results of the present study demonstrate that the telemetry method is useful for monitoring the antihypertensive effects of drugs in SHR under physiological conditions with minimal stress.

    Notes: 1. The depressor response to sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and the pressor response to Nω-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) were investigated in anaesthetized and ganglion-blocked 6 week old (young) and 20 week old (adult) spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), and the results were compared with those in age-matched normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats.2. SNP produced a dose-dependent decrease of the mean blood pressure (BP) in both strains, and no differences in vascular sensitivity to SNP were observed between the strains.3. L-NAME caused dose-dependent pressor responses in both strains. The sensitivity and the maximal response to L-NAME in SHR were significantly greater than those in age-matched WKY (P 〈 0.05 or 0.01; t-test, 13d.f. in both ages). However, there were no significant differences in the responses between ages in each strain.4. Acute reduction of BP induced by 7-O-ethylfangchinoline did not affect the responses to SNP and L-NAME in the adult SHR.5. These results indicate that a greater amount of NO is tonically released in SHR and that its contribution to BP control is greater in SHR than in WKY, whereas vascular sensitivity to NO does not differ between the strains. In addition, acute changes in BP do not affect the degree of dependency on NO for BP control.

    Notes: When the signs and symptoms of temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD) are present, it is possible that occlusal conditions and mandibular movements are changed. Accordingly, the presence of occlusal interferences may be misjudged. It is therefore reasonable to consider that occlusal conditions should be examined just after the relief of symptoms. The comparison of occlusal conditions in 52 temparomandibular joint (TMJ) pain patients and 27 muscle pain patients with that in 60 asymptomatic controls was made. Occlusal examination in the patients was administered just after the relief of pain by bite plane therapy alone. The only occlusal factor which was associated with pain symptoms was no canine contact on the working side on laterotrusion. It is suggested therefore that further studies as regards this type of interference should be performed.

    Notes: summary  This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the facial side of pain or clicking symptoms and the side of occlusal interference, and to examine the features of pain and clicking patients in terms of frequencies of occlusal interferences in relation to the symptomatic side. Occlusal conditions in 31 pain patients and 40 clicking patients were investigated just after the relief of pain or clicking solely by means of bite plane therapy. The symptomatic side did not associate with the side of fewer occlusal contacts in intercuspal position, no canine contact on the working side, occlusal contact on the non-working side, or unilateral contact in retruded contact position. The results of this study suggest that pain or clicking does not necessarily tend to appear on the side of these occlusal interferences. Additionally, characteristic inclination for pain and clicking patients in terms of frequencies of occlusal interferences in relation to the symptomatic side was not identified.
