    Notes: Nine marble horizons from the granulite facies terrane of southern India were examined in detail for stable carbon and oxygen isotopes in calcite and carbon isotopes in graphite. The marbles in Trivandrum Block show coupled lowering of δ13C and δ18O values in calcite and heterogeneous single crystal δ13C values (− 1 to − 10‰) for graphite indicating varying carbon isotope fractionation between calcite and graphite, despite the granulite facies regional metamorphic conditions. The stable isotope patterns suggest alteration of δ13C and δ18O values in marbles by infiltration of low δ13C–δ18O-bearing fluids, the extent of alteration being a direct function of the fluid-rock ratio. The carbon isotope zonation preserved in graphite suggests that the graphite crystals precipitated/recrystallized in the presence of an externally derived CO2-rich fluid, and that the infiltration had occurred under high temperature and low fO2 conditions during metamorphism. The onset of graphite precipitation resulted in a depletion of the carbon isotope values of the remaining fluid+calcite carbon reservoir, following a Rayleigh-type distillation process within fluid-rich pockets/pathways in marbles resulting in the observed zonation. The results suggest that calcite–graphite thermometry cannot be applied in marbles that are affected by external carbonic fluid infiltration. However, marble horizons in the Madurai Block, where the effect of fluid infiltration is not detected, record clear imprints of ultrahigh temperature metamorphism (800–1000 °C), with fractionations reaching 〈2‰. Zonation studies on graphite show a nominal rimward lowering δ13C on the order of 1 to 2‰. The zonation carries the imprint of fluid deficient/absent UHT metamorphism. Commonly, calculated core temperatures are  〉 1000 °C and would be consistent with UHT metamorphism.

    Notes: An extensive humite-bearing marble horizon within a supracrustal sequence at Ambasamudram, southern India, was studied using petrological and stable isotopic techniques to define its metamorphic history and fluid characteristics. At peak metamorphic temperatures of 775±73°C, based on calcite-graphite carbon isotope thermometry, the mineral assemblages suggest layer-by-layer control of fluid compositions. Clinohumite + calcite-bearing assemblages suggest XCO2 〈 0.4 (at 700°C and 5 kbar), calcite + forsterite + K-feldspar-bearing assemblages suggest XCO2〉0.9 (at 790°C); and local wollastonite + scapolite + grossular-bearing zones formed at XCO2 of c. 0.3. Retrograde reaction textures such as scapolite + quartz symplectites after feldspar and calcite and replacement of dolomite + diopside or tremolite+dolomite after calcite+forsterite or calcite+clinohumite are indicative of retrogression under high XCO2 conditions. Calcite preserves late Proterozoic carbon and oxygen isotopic signatures and the marble lacks evidence for extensive retrograde fluid infiltration, while during prograde metamorphism the possible infiltration of aqueous fluids did not produce significant isotopic resetting. Isotopic zonation of calcite and graphite grains was likely produced by localized CO2 fluid infiltration during retrogression. Contrary to the widespread occurrence of humite-marbles related to retrograde aqueous fluid infiltration, the Ambasamudram humite-marbles record a prograde-to-peak metamorphic humite formation and retrogression under conditions of low XH2O.

    Notes: A wire-conductor fabrication method has been developed for Cu–Ag alloys containing 2–60 at. % Ag where high strength and high conductivity conductors are obtained by cold working combined with intermediate heat treatment. The intermediate heat treatment is repeated 3–4 times at 350–450 °C for 1–2 h at appropriate stages of reduction of area. The optimized Cu-16 at. % Ag alloy wire with 99% reduction of area showed a tensile strength of 1000 MPa and an electrical conductivity of 80% IACS at room temperature. This suggests that the wires fabricated may be very promising for high-field pulsed magnet use.

    Notes: A giant magnetocaloric effect was found in MnAs, which undergoes a first-order ferromagnetic to paramagnetic transition at 318 K. The magnetic entropy change caused by a magnetic field of 5 T is as large as 30 J/K kg at the maximum value, which exceeds that of conventional magnetic refrigerant materials by a factor of 2–4. The adiabatic temperature change reaches 13 K in a field change of 5 T. The substitution of 10% Sb for As reduces the thermal hysteresis and lowers the Curie temperature to 280 K, while the giant magnetocaloric properties are retained. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The expression of human placental cell surface antigens was examined in cells of lymphoid origin, including peripheral blood lymphocytes and cultured lymphoblastoid cells of bone marrow or thymus derivation. A select group of this. defined set of surface antigens was detected on all three cell preparations. The most remarkable observation was the conspicuous absence of three subunits previously demonstrated to be present on all human cell surfaces examined to date. Antiserum directed against several placental components prevents adhesion and spreading of cell which grow attached to surfaces. These results suggest a role for these three glycoproteins in mediating cellular adhesion.

    Notes: Histamine content and enzyme activities of histamine metabolism, histidine decarboxy-lase (HDC), histamine N-methyltransferase (HMT) and histaminase (diamine oxidase, DAO) in human nasal mucosa were determined with a highly sensitive and specific fluorescent method which was combined with high performance liquid chromatography. Histamine content and HDC activity were determined in 10 specimens of nasal polyp, nine specimens of maxillary sinus and five specimens of inferior turbinate. HMT and histaminase activities were determined in 15 specimens of nasal polyp, nine specimens of maxillary sinus and five specimens of inferior turbinate obtained during surgical therapy. Histamine and activities of HDC, HMT and histaminase were detected in all specimens except the case of histaminase activity in one specimen of nasal polyp. The mean values of histamine content and activities of HDC, HMT and histaminase of human nasal mucosa were 137.3 nmol/g wet weight, 26.3 fmol/min/mg protein, 26.4 pmol/min/mg protein and 0.5 pmol/min/mg protein, respectively. Histamine content in the mucosal tissue of the maxillary sinuses was significantly higher than that of nasal polyps or inferior turbinates. There were no significant differences in HDC activities among three kinds of nasal mucosa. Activities of HMT and histaminase, including their kinetic constants (Km and Vmax values for histamine) indicated that HMT has a greater potential than histaminase for histamine degradation in the human nasal mucosa. The presence of these enzymes suggests that these activities constitute an important modulating factor in histamine mediated allergic and inflammatory reactions in human nasal mucosa.
