    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Nahrungsmenge, die von einer Larve der Wanderheuschrecke, Locusta migratoria L., im fünften Entwicklungsstadium bei einer einzigen Mahlzeit verzehrt wird, wurde ermittelt, indem ihr Darm und Darminhalt sofort nach dem Fressen gewogen wurden. In der Mitte des Entwicklungsstadiums wurden größere Mengen verzehrt, Weibchen fraßen mehr als Männchen, jedoch sind die weiblichen Larven ja auch größer. Die Menge der aufgenommenen Nahrung vergrößerte sich mit der Dauer künstlichen Futterentzuges. Sie erreichte ihren Höhepunkt nach sechs Stunden, nach welcher Zeit der Vorderdarm absolut leer war. Die verzehrten Mengen waren je nach der Art der Nahrung unterschiedlich. Auch stellten die Insekten sich so ein, daß sie von einer bestimmten Nahrung mehr zu sich nahmen, wenn sie daran aufgezogen worden waren. Nach längeren Zeitspannen der Isolierung hatten sie die Tendenz, weniger zu fressen. Temperatur und Feuchtigkeit hatten keinen Einfluß auf die Mengen, die verzehrt wurden, außer bei 40°, bei welcher Temperatur sich das gesamte Verhalten zum Fressen ändert.
    Notes: Abstract Meal size in fifth-instar nymphs of Locusta migratoria L. has been investigated by weighing the gut and its contents immediately after feeding. Larger meals are taken in mid-instar, while females eat more in one meal than males under the same conditions. Bigger meals are also eaten after longer periods of food deprivation, but after deprivation for two hours or less, corresponding with the normal interfeed length, meals are smaller than would be expected from the potential maximum foregut volume. The maximum volume attained varies with the type of food available to the insects and is influenced by previous conditioning. Temperature and humidity do not affect meal size except at 40°, at which temperature the usual pattern of feeding is completely altered.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Funktionen der Maxillartaster von Locusta migratoria migratorioides (R. & F.), Schistocerca gregaria (Forskål) und Chortippus parallelus (Zett.) wurden unter Anwendung verschiedener Verfahren untersucht. Die Tasterbewegungen wurden kinematographisch analysiert und als Schlagen und Tasten klassifiziert; das letztere tritt hauptsächlich kurz vor und nach, aber ebenso gut auch während der Nahrungsaufnahme auf. Die Sensillen an den Tasterenden berühren beim Tasten häufig das Substrat. Vorausgesetzt, daß die Insekten nicht gehungert hatten, wurde Bellis allein nach Betasten abgelehnt; nach längerem Hungern erfolgte jedoch die Ablehnung erst nach Beißen. Weitere Versuche, bei denen Extrakte der Kutikula von Poa oder Bellis verwendet wurden, zeigten, daß Annahme oder Ablehnung von der chemischen Natur des Substrats abhängen, welches von den Tastern berührt wird. Betasten eines geeigneten Substrats führte nicht unmittelbar zum Beißen, ruft aber eine Verhaltensweise hervor, die ihrerseits das Beißen fördert. Daraus wird geschlossen, daß die von den Tastern wahrgenommenen chemischen Reize für die Nahrungswahl der Acrididen wichtig sind, wenn die Insekten normal fressen. Nach Hunger ruft mechanische Reizung der Taster oder anderer Mundteile Beißen auch beim Fehlen geeigneter chemischer Reize hervor. Die häufigen kurzen Kontakte der Palpen mit dem Substrat während des Tastens erlauben offenbar den Sensillen, einen beständigen Strom von Informationen an das Zentralnervensystem zu liefern, ohne selbst angepaßt (ermüdet) zu werden.
    Notes: Abstract The functions of the maxillary palps of acridids have been investigated in experiments with Locusta migratoria migratorioides (R. & F.), Schistocerca gregaria (Forsk.) and Chorthippus parallelus (Zett.). The palp makes small irregular flicking movements and more extensive rapid vibrations described as palpation. Both activities involve the same basic movements of the palp segments. Palpation is essentially related to feeding and in normally feeding insects the palps play an important role in food selection, but as starvation is prolonged they become unimportant. Selection depends on appropriate chemical stimulation from the cuticle on the surface of the leaf. Palpation on this leads to head lowering and to biting if appropriate tactile stimuli are then received. The control of biting is discussed. The frequent but very brief, contacts of the sensilla on the tips of the palps with the substratum during palpation may enable them to relay information to the central nervous system more or less continuously without adapting.

    Notes: Abstract Liver iron concentrations were determined in 60 alcoholics with liver disease of varying severity, 15 patients with untreated idiopathic hemochromatosis, and 16 control subjects with biliary tract disease. Mean liver iron concentrations (μg/100 mg dry weight) were significantly greater in the alcoholics (156.4±7.8 (sem);P〈0.05) and in patients with idiopathic hemochromatosis (2094.5±230.7;P〈0.01) than in control subjects (53.0±7.0). Liver iron concentrations of 〉140 μg/100 mg were found in 17 alcoholics (29%) and in all 15 patients with idiopathic hemochromatosis. Liver iron concentrations 〉1000 μg/100 mg were found in all patients with idiopathic hemochromatosis but in none of the alcoholics. In the alcoholics no relationship existed between liver iron concentrations and the amount of alcohol consumed daily, the length of the drinking history, the amount of beverage iron consumed daily, or the severity of the liver disease. Serum ferritin concentrations reflected iron stores in patients with hemochromatosis and in alcoholics with minimal liver disease. However, in alcoholics with significant liver disease serum ferritin concentrations did not reflect iron stores accurately, although with normal values iron overload is unlikely. Serum iron concentration and percentage saturation of total iron-binding capacity were of little value in assessing iron status in either alcoholics or patients with hemochromatosis. Measurement of the liver iron concentration clearly differentiates between alcoholics with significant siderosis and patients with idiopathic hemochromatosis.

    Notes: Abstract Total ferritin concentration was measured in sera of 30 patients with primary liver cell cancer (PLCC) and 33 patients with cirrhosis and compared with serum alpha-fetoprotein levels as a diagnostic marker of PLCC. Serum ferritin concentration was raised in 19 patients (63%) with PLCC and 11 patients (33%) with cirrhosis. The median level was significantly higher (P〈0.001) in the PLCC group (560 μg/liter) than in the cirrhotic group (137 μg/liter), although there was considerable overlap. Serum ferritin was posititively correlated with serum aminotransferase levels in the cirrhotic patients (r=0.53,P〈0.001), reflecting hepatic necrosis, but not in the PLCC patients. The concentration of ferritin binding to concanavalin A was measured in the sera of patients with elevated total serum ferritin. Although the proportion of bound ferritin was decreased in the majority of PLCC sera compared to controls (P〈0.001), there was overlap with the cirrhotic group, making it unlikely that this assay is useful in distinguishing a tumor-specific isoferritin. Serum alpha-fetoprotein levels were elevated in 21 patients (70%) with PLCC and proved to be a highly sensitive and specific test for PLCC. There was no relationship between the alpha-fetoprotein and serum ferritin concentrations. Serum ferritin is inferior to alpha-fetoprotein as an initial screening test for PLCC, but in alpha-fetoprotein-negative patients serum ferritin may have a role in monitoring therapy. Patients with cirrhosis with normal serum alpha-fetoprotein and ferritin concentrations are very unlikely to have PLCC.

    Notes: Abstract Ethyl nicotinate was found to be a potent attractant forThrips obscuratus in peaches and apricots. The male-to-female ratio in traps was 1∶8. The chemical was more attractive than ripe fruit, with peak catches at harvest. Season-long trapping showed the efficiency of the chemical compared to unbaited traps. The chemical remained attractive for at least 2 weeks when 50 μl were placed in open 2-ml vial caps. Various pyralids, geometrids (Lepidoptera), and chironomids (Diptera) were also attracted in low numbers to ethyl nicotinate.

    Notes: The change in apparent molal volume φ of DNA on thermal denaturation in carbonate buffer at pH 11.0 has been determined by the dilatometric method. It was found that φ increases sigmoidally during the helix-coil transition. Several methods, including a colorimetric technique that closely simulates the conditions used in the dilatometric experiments, were employed to estimate the protons lost by the DNA during the transition. These measurements indicated that the extent of the proton loss depends on the counterion present, increasing in the order Li+ 〈 Na+ 〈 K+ 〈 Cs+. The major part of the volume changes observed during the denaturation is due to the volume changes expected to accompany the transfer of protons from the bases guanine and thym ne to carbonate ions. As has been previously reported for the denaturation of DNA at neutral pH, the volume change directly due to the change in shape of the polymer molecules is so small as to be experimentally undetectable.

    Notes: Isthmic and ampullary oviductal epithelia sampled from Merino ewes at days -1, 1, 3, and 10 of the estrous cycle (estrus = day 0) were studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopy after fixation by vascular perfusion. Secretory cells, ciliated cells, and lymphocytelike basal cells were observed in both isthmic and ampullary epithelium at all stages of the estrous cycle studied and their ultrastructural features were analyzed. Synthesis of lamellated secretory granules occurred in the ampullary secretory cells during the follicular and early luteal phases, and their contents were released by exocytosis into the oviductal lumen during the luteal phase. Granule release was associated with nucleated apical protrusion of these cells into the oviductal lumen. No such secretory activity was displayed by isthmic secretory cells even though a few cells contained nonlamellated granules. Apocrine release of apical vesicles and accompanying cytoplasmic material from apical protrusions of ciliated cells occurred in the isthmus around estrus but not in the ampulla. This unexpected feature has not previously been reported in any other mammal. Dendritic basal cells were distinguished in the lower part of the epithelium by their heterochromatic nuclei, electron-lucent cytoplasm, and lack of attachment zones. No migration of basal cells was observed, and their ultrastructural features were similar in the ampulla and isthmus and at all stages of the estrous cycle examined. The function of these lymphocytelike cells in the epithelium is uncertain, but the presence of phagocytic bodies and lysosomes in 20% of them may indicate a phagocytic role.
