    Notes: An interferometer previously developed for measuring instantaneous film thickness of the order of 10 μm–1 mm [T. Ohyama, K. Endoh, A. Mikami, and Y. H. Mori, Rev. Sci. Instrum. 59, 2018 (1988)] has been improved with respect to both facility of handling and accuracy of thickness determination. The improved version of the interferometer uses an expanded laser beam focused aslant on the subject film. The rays reflected from the front and rear surfaces of the film form interference fringes on a screen, which are then recorded in the form of a single snapshot interferogram or as a set of serial interferograms to be geometrically analyzed. Experiments with thin glass plates as sample films verified the expected advantages of the new version over the original one. The improved version of the interferometer was also tested on a liquid film asymptotically thinning as it drained down a vertical plate. The test indicated that the accuracy and precision of the new improved version far exceed those of other transient film-thickness measuring techniques. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We previously reported that nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) micro imaging detected the hollows in cooked rice but required a specialist to operate equipment. Convenient detection of hollows is useful in the characterization of cooked rice. X-ray imaging and light transmittance photography were studied as alternatives to NMR micro imaging. X-ray imaging detected about 50% of all hollows. Light transmittance photography detected almost all hollows in cooked rice (Oryza sativa cv. Koshihikari) effectively and rapidly, relatively quantifying hollow sizes and numbers.

    Notes: Calprotectin is a calcium binding protein produced by leukocytes, macrophages and epithelial cells, and its levels in several tissues increase during infections and in many inflamed areas, suggesting that it may be an indicator of inflammatory activity. Osteopontin is a prominent phosphorylated glycoprotein in bone matrix, having calcium binding capacity. Recently, it has been reported that calprotectin and osteopontin are present in urinary stones (pathological mineralized masses in the body), and that these proteins may be involved in their formation. Dental calculus formed by mineralization of dental plaque is an inflammatory factor which may contribute to periodontal disease. It contains many organic components involved in mineralization. We recently found osteopontin molecules in human dental calculus and suggested that the components of its matrix may be similar to those of urinary stones. In this study, we investigated the presence of calprotectin in human dental calculus by immunohistochemical and immunoblotting analyses using a specific antibody for calprotectin. After fixation and demineralization of dental calculi adhered to tooth roots, sections embedded in paraffin were immunoreacted with the antibody for calprotectin and positive immunostaining for calprotectin was observed. Dental calculus proteins were then extracted with EDTA and separated by electrophoresis on 15% polyacrylamide gels. By immunoblotting analysis, 3 or 4 bands were observed at 11, 14.5, 22–25, 28 or 36.5 kDa and these patterns corresponded to those of calprotectin subunits. When non-immune rabbit serum was used instead of calprotectin-specific antibody as a negative control, no immunoreactivity was observed. These findings indicate that calprotectin is associated not only with antibacterial action but also with calcium binding capacity during dental calculus formation.

    Notes: Nondestructive analysis of water distribution and structural changes in cooked rice grains, Oryza sativa cv Koshihikari, was performed with Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Micro imaging of protons (1H). Using a specially designed holder, high quality images of cooked rice grains were obtained, even when up to 10 grains were studied simultaneously. Internal hollows were observed in all examined cooked rice grains, and we propose a mechanism to explain their formation. The origin of these hollows was hypothesized to be cracks or fissures, and hollows resulted from sealing of such lacerations by gelatinized starch in the peripheral layer in combination with expansion of the grain during cooking.

    Notes: Summary Neurons of the cat superior colliculus (SC) sending their axons to the pulvinar nuclei were identified electrophysiologically as the ones responding antidromically to electrical stimulation of the pulvinar nuclei. They were located in the superficial layers of SC and found to be innervated by axons of W-type ganglion cells of the retina.

    Notes: Summary Rabbit bone marrow cells have been studied by means of light-and electron-microscopic radioautography and X-ray microanalysis. Carrier free sulfuric acid was used as the radioactive precursor in this experiment. Immature granulocytes showed more active incorporation than mature ones. Silver grains were observed in the Golgi apparatus and granules in three kinds of granulocytes. Electron-microscopically, immature granules showed the incorporation of inorganic sulfate, while mature ones did not. Sulfur was detected in all kinds of granules of the three granulocyte types by X-ray microanalysis. It is concluded that incorporated inorganic sulfur may be utilized for the synthesis of acid glycosaminoglycans and the sulfur detected by X-ray microanalysis may be that contained in the acid glycosaminoglycan. The sulfur detected in the specific granules of the heterophil probably derives from proteins or polypeptides incorporating sulfur containing amino acids.

    Notes: Summary A simplified method of emulsion coating and development for quantitative electron microscopic radioautography without any special instrument is introduced. Seven grids carrying ultrathin sections are attached to a glass block with double-coated Scotch tape. They are coated with a wire-loop, 2.5 cm in diameter. Ten glass blocks are then stuck on a slide, exposed, developed, fixed and stained simultaneously. Employing this method, the emulsion coating and the following procedures are easily accomplished under an identical condition.

    Notes: Summary The glycogen of rabbit granulocytes has been studied in glutaraldehyde and osmium tetroxide fixed bone marrow by the periodic acid-thiocarbohydrazide-silver proteinate procedure (PA-TCH-SP). The PA-TCH-SP procedure involved the staining of intracytoplasmic glycogen more densely than the routine lead citrate staining. The PA-TCH-SP procedure demonstrated the intracytoplasmic glycogen in all three kinds of granulocytes. Though a sequence of intensity was observed in each stage of cell maturation, intracytoplasmic glycogen increased generally in accordance with cell maturation in the granulocytes. Functional significance of the glycogen in the granulocytes was discussed in relation to its staining. A very weak reaction in the granules of the granulocytes was described in relation to their contents.
