    Notes: Basic acoustic properties of five MgO-doped LiNbO3 rectangular parallelpiped specimens, having X-, Y-, and Z-cut planes, with different MgO dopant concentrations ranging from 0 to 13 mol % are investigated by line-focus-beam acoustic microscopy. The investigation is conducted to characterize the optical-use MgO:LiNbO3 crystals and wafers and to establish large-diameter crystal growth conditions. Leaky-surface-acoustic-wave (LSAW) velocities are measured on each crystalline plane of each specimen as a function of the wave propagation direction and are compared with the measured chemical composition ratios of Mg/Li/Nb, densities, and lattice constants. It is shown that, as the dopant concentrations increase in the experimental composition region, the LSAW velocities increase almost linearly for all the surfaces and all the propagation directions. The LSAW velocities are linearly proportional to the lattice constants, but inversely proportional to the densities. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Depth profile and lattice location analysis of Sb atoms in Si/Sb(δ-doped)/Si(001) structures using medium-energy ion scattering spectroscopy (1999)

    Notes: Medium-energy coaxial impact-collision ion scattering spectroscopy has been used to study the depth profile and lattice location of Sb atoms in Si/Sb(δ-doped)/Si(001) structures prepared by solid phase epitaxy. The Sb atoms are observed to diffuse into the Si capping layer at concentrations much higher than the solubility limit in a Si crystal. In addition, the concentration of diffused Sb atoms does not show a monotonic decrease with increasing distance from the δ-layer plane. The lattice locations of the diffused Sb atoms are found to be strongly dependent on the distance from the location of the original Sb δ layer. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Macro Creatine Kinase in Kawasaki Disease (1999)

    Notes: Abstract. This report describes a case of Kawasaki disease with macro creatine kinase (CK). A 13-month-old boy developed typical symptoms of Kawasaki disease and was treated with flurbiprofen, dipyridamole, and intravenous γ-globulin. The serum level of CK increased during treatment from 371 U/L, at 4 days after the onset of Kawasaki disease, to 13,222 U/L 3 days later. Immunofixation electrophoresis identified macro CK as containing immunoglobulin A (κ, λ). The presence of macro CK may result from muscle tissue involvement in Kawasaki disease.

    Thrombin in the Airways of Asthmatic Patients (1999)
    Springer
    Lung 177 (1999), S. 253-262

    ISSN: 1432-1750
    Keywords: Key words: Thrombin—Asthma—Remodeling—Smooth muscle cell.

    Notes: Abstract. The mechanism of airway remodeling in asthmatic patients is poorly understood. Thrombin is a multifunctional protease that, in addition to its critical role in thrombotic processes, has also been described as inducing cellular and molecular events relevant to tissue remodeling. The present investigation was undertaken to evaluate the activity of thrombin in the sputum of asthmatic patients and its potential role in airway remodeling. The study population comprised 8 healthy subjects and 14 stable patients with bronchial asthma. The concentrations of thrombin, thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT), and tissue factor were measured in the sputum of all subjects. The concentrations of thrombin (p= 0.007), TAT (p= 0.01), and tissue factor (p= 0.02) in sputum were significantly higher in asthmatic patients than in healthy controls. The proliferative effects that sputum from asthmatic patients (p= 0.01) and thrombin (p= 0.03) have on cultured human smooth muscle cells was inhibited significantly in the presence of recombinant hirudin, a specific thrombin inhibitor. Significant statistical correlation was observed between the degree of bronchial responsiveness and the sputum concentrations of thrombin (r=−0.8; p= 0.02) and TAT (r=−0.9; p= 0.01). The results of this study showed that increased thrombin generation occurs in the airway of patients with asthma and that it may play a role in the pathogenesis of airway remodeling. Further studies should be carried out to assess whether these findings are also observed in other airway diseases.

    High levels of non-methylesterified pectins and low levels of peripherally located pectins in loosely attached non-embryogenic callus of carrot (1999)

    Notes: Abstract Carrot embryogenic callus (EC) forms larger and tighter clusters of cells than does non-embryogenic callus (NC). Morphological and histochemical analyses of EC and NC were made using the electron microscope. The entire cell wall in NC was strongly stained by ruthenium red, which reacts primarily with carboxyl groups of acidic sugars. By contrast, in EC, strong staining by ruthenium red of the entire cell wall, of amorphous structures on the surface of EC and of secretory vesicles was observed only after treatment with NaOH. Scanning electron microscopy revealed the presence of amorphous structures on the entire surface of EC but not of NC. These results suggest the abundance of non-methylesterified pectins and the presence of methylesterified and peripherally located pectins in the cell walls of NC and EC, respectively, as well as the absence, in carrot cultured cells, of any correlation between the calcium bridges of pectins and intercellular attachment.

    Notes: Abstract Field gas exchange and water potential in the leaves of a C3 dicot, Plantago asiatica L., and a C4 monocot, Eleusine indica Gaertn., which dominate in trampled vegetation in eastern Japan were surveyed during the growing periods for two consecutive years. Net photosynthetic rate (P N) of E. indica increased with photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) and leaf temperature (TL). P N was not saturated at PPFDs above 1500 µmol m−2 s−1 and at TL above 30 °C. On a sunny day in mid summer, maximum P N was two times higher in E. indica than in P. asiatica [42 vs. 20 µmol(CO2) m−2 s−1], but their transpiration rate (E) and the leaf water potential (ΨL) were similar. Soil-to-leaf hydraulic conductance, which probably plays a role in water absorption from the trampled compact soil, was higher in E. indica than in P. asiatica. The differences in photosynthetic traits between E. indica explain why E. indica communities more commonly develop at heavily trampled sites in summer than the P. asiatica communities.

    Study of pulsed laser deposition of RuO2 and SrRuO3 thin films (1999)

    Notes: Abstract. In this study, the pulsed laser ablation of RuO2 and SrRuO3 (SRO) is investigated by observing the fluorescence from excited atoms in the plume by using a framing streak camera. Vaporization, phase explosion and boiling are suggested to play the main roles in the processes for the interaction between the laser beam and target. Collisions and adiabatic expansion are also suggested before particles move forward with shifted Maxwellian spatial distribution. In O2 pressure, numerous collisions between fast and slow atoms occur and result in the exchange of speeds. The structural and electrical (conductivity and work-function) properties of RuO2 and SRO thin films are measured. Epitaxial SRO growth was obtained at growth temperatures down to 350 °C. Ferroelectric and high- dielectric thin-film capacitors with RuO2 or SRO thin film electrode are also studied.
