    Notes: Abstract: This study examined mRNAs encoding regulators of G protein signaling (RGSs) expressed within the striatum and determined whether their expression in the caudate putamen was altered by amphetamine. RT-PCR techniques were used to clone cDNA probes of RGSs expressed within the rat striatum. Northern blot analysis of caudate putamen and nucleus accumbens RNA determined the relative abundance of RGS mRNA expressed within the caudate putamen and adjacent nucleus accumbens to be RGS 2 〉 RGS 5 〉 RGS 16 〉 RGS 4 = RGS 9 〉 RGS 8 = RGS 3. A single injection of amphetamine rapidly and transiently induced RGS 2 mRNA. The temporal pattern of induction of RGS 2 strongly resembled that of the immediate early gene c-fos. Levels of mRNAs of RGS 3 and 5 steadily increased over a 4-h interval, as did that of the 6.6-kb transcript of RGS 8. The level of RGS 9 mRNA, which shows strong striatal-specific expression, steadily decreased over a 4-h interval, whereas RGS 4 and 16 and the 3.9-kb transcript of RGS 8 were not significantly affected at any point examined. The ability of amphetamine to alter RGS mRNA expression within the caudate putamen suggests these proteins may play an important role in adaptive processes to psychostimulant exposure.

    Notes: Impurity and minority carrier lifetime distributions were studied in as-grown multicrystalline silicon used for terrestrial-based solar cells. Synchrotron-based x-ray fluorescence and the light beam induced current technique were used to measure impurity and lifetime distributions, respectively. The purpose of this work was to determine the spatial relation between transition metal impurities and minority carrier recombination in multicrystalline silicon solar cells. Our results reveal a direct correlation between chromium, iron, and nickel impurity precipitates with regions of high minority carrier recombination. The impurity concentration was typically 5×1016 atoms/cm2, indicating the impurity-rich regions possess nanometer-scale precipitates. These results provide the first direct evidence that transition metal agglomerates play a significant role in solar cell performance. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: : A continuous simulation approach is proposed for estimating water temperature exceedance probabilities using thermo-hydrodynamic modeling. The approach uses (1) a deterministic unsteady flow and heat transport model, (2) continuous hydrological and meteorological data for a long historical period, and (3) synthetic records of tributary water temperatures and other model inputs. Representative historical records of streamflow, air temperatures, and other hydrometeorological variables are obtained from nearby gages. Stochastic modeling methods are used to construct synthetic records for other model inputs, including inflow water temperatures. An application of this deterministic-stochastic approach is presented for a complex waterway in northeastern Illinois with heat discharges from several power plants and wastewater treatment plants. Statistical results from the continuous simulations are compared to results obtained from traditional event simulations. The application illustrates the information that engineers and biologists can obtain for (1) evaluating compliance with water temperature standards, and (2) assessing the effect of water temperatures on aquatic habitat.

    Notes: : Spatial and temporal variability in rainfall concentrations of nutrients, major ions, and herbicides was monitored at 7 locations in or near the Conodoguinet Creek watershed in south-central Pennsylvania from 1991.1993. Results were used to (1) compare precipitation quality in forested, agricultural and urban areas, and (2) assess the practicality of using volunteer citizen monitoring in such a study.As indicated in previous studies, sulfate and nitrogen concentrations in precipitation were linked to sample pH. Concentrations of major ions in precipitation appeared to relate more to regional influences rather than local influences. However, concentrations of herbicides in precipitation may have been influenced by both regional and local use which caused compounds like atrazine, deethylatrazine, propazine, simazine, metolachior, alachlor, ametryn, and prometon to be present in detectable concentrations in rainfall.Seasonality was evident in nitrogen, sulfate, pH, and herbicide data and was suggested in calcium, iron, manganese, magnesium, orthophosphate, and chloride data. Agricultural weed control activities were probably responsible for the seasonal pattern in pesticide data which peaked in May and June. Tropical storm Danielle may have caused the apparent seasonal patterns for the other nine parameters. This storm did not follow the typical west to east movement pattern and consequently produced rainfall of relative high quality.A variety of quality assurance checks indicated that trained volunteer citizen monitors were successful participants in this intensive and extensive scientific study, collecting good quality samples in a timely manner. Without this kind of volunteer help, it is extremely difficult to complete studies that require sampling in response to natural events such as rainfall.

    Notes: Reliable inspection of flexible food packages for micro-leaks and product contamination in the seal area is needed to prevent spoilage and safety hazard. Nondestructive testing by the ultrasonic imaging method, Backscattered Amplitude Integral (BAI), was evaluated for use in defect detection. Channel defects (6–15 μm in diameter) and simulated food strands (20–60 μm dia) perpendicular to the sealing direction were fabricated within the seal region of both all-plastic and foil-containing retortable pouches. Results showed that 17.3-MHz pulse-echo BAI-imaging detected channel defects (9.5–15 μm) and all strand-inclusion defects in both types of package materials.

    Notes: Nonfat milks inoculated and fermented with exopolysaccharide and non-exopolysaccharide producing cultures were compared to nonfat, 2% milkfat and whole milk with instrumental and sensory color measurements. L-(whiteness) and a- values (red/greeness) for fermented nonfat milks were higher than nonfat milk. No differences in L-, a-, or b- values (yellow/blueness) were found between milks fermented with exopolysaccharide as compared to non-exopolysaccharide producing strains. A trained sensory panel scored edge and center whiteness of fermented milks whiterthan nonfat milk. Milks fermented with exopolysaccharide producing cultures were scored higher than non-exopolysaccharide producing cultures with respect to edge and center whiteness. Fermentation and exopolysaccharide production may increase visual perception of whiteness in milk.

    Notes: [Auszug] Nephropathic cystinosis, an autosomal recessive disorder resulting from defective lysosomal transport of cystine, is the most common inherited cause of renal Fanconi syndrome. The cystinosis gene has been mapped to chromosome 17p13. We found that the locus D17S829 was homozygously deleted in 23 out ...

    Notes: [Auszug] We examined the ability of yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) tissue cultures and plantlets to express modified mercuric reductase (merA) gene constructs. Mercury-resistant bacteria express merA to convert highly toxic, ionic mercury, Hg(ll), to much less toxic, elemental mercury, Hg(O). ...
