    Notes: Abstract When Porphyridium cruentum cells were illuminated with high fluence rate between 1900 and 4800 μmol photons m-2s-1, a decrease in the photosynthetic activity of the cells was observed. Within the time frame of 20 min, and under the fluence rates studied, the sum of photons to be absorbed by cells (mg of chlorophyll (Chl), sufficient to initiate photoinhibition was calculated to be 9235.8 μmol. The minimal specific light absorption rate to initiate photoinhibition in P. cruentum ranges between 2.29 and 4.26 μmol photons s-1 mg-1 chl.a. There was a linear relationship between the specific rate of photoinhibition and the specific light absorption rate. A photon number of 2.56×104 μmol mg-1 chl.a photoinhibited photosynthesis instantaneously. At 15°C, no photoinhibitory effect was observed at 2300 μmol photons m-2 s-1 even after 45 min of illumination. At the other extreme of 35°C, 84% inhibition of photosynthetic activity was observed within 10 min of exposure to 2300 μmol photons m-2 s-1. Between 20 and 30°C, the photoinhibitory effect was comparable. Photoinhibited P. cruentum cells recovered readily when transferred to low light (90 μmol photons m-2 s-1) and darkness, and the specific rate of recovery was independent of the light intensity to which the cells were exposed, during the photoinhibitory treatment.

    Notes: Abstract Modification of inorganic powders with high-pressure shock-wave loading is of interest for shock-activated sintering, material synthesis, shock-enhanced catalytic activity, dynamic compaction, and shock-enhanced solid-state reactivity. The specific surface area of shock-modified powders is a direct quantitative measure of powder morphology changes, yet few studies have been carried out on powders subjected to controlled shock-loading conditions. In the present work aluminium oxide, zinc oxide, aluminium nitride, titanium carbide and titanium diboride powder compacts were subjected to controlled shock-loading to peak pressures of from 4 to 27 GPa at various starting densities, and characterized with specific surface area measurements by the BET (gas adsorption) method. Low-temperature cyclical thermal pretreatment and outgassing pretreatment of the shock powders at 250° C were employed; the former improves the reliability of the BET measurements, and makes the surfaces of the shock-modified powders more chemically active than those of the starting powders. Each powder shows a somewhat different response to shock-loading, ranging from a decrease in specific surface by a factor of six for zinc oxide to a 200% increase for titanium diboride. Shock-induced changes in specific surface show four characteristic behaviours as shock pressure is increased. Well-understood and controllable shock-loading conditions are found to be essential to shock-modification studies. An update on earlier measurements on rutile, zirconia and silicon nitride is also reported.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé On a étudié le contenu dePorphyridium cruentum en acides gras, en polysaccharides et en pigments, en fonction de la température de croissance, de l'intensité lumineuse et du taux de dilution dans un chémostat limité par la lumière. Le rendement le plus élevé en biomasse a été obtenu à 25°C quel que soit le taux de dilution (compris entre 0.079 et 0.30 jours−1). La production d'acides gras augmente avec l'augmentation du taux de dilution. A des taux de dilution faibles, le contenu en acides gras est indépendant de la température (comprise entre 20 et 30°C). La température n'influence pas le contenu en acide linolénique (18∶2) bien que les acides gras à deux ou plusieurs doubles liaisons s'accumulent à température plus basse. Les rendements en acide arachidonique (20∶4) augmentent sous une lumière de plus forte intensité. La production maximum de polysaccharides tant extracellulaires que cellulaires a lieu à un taux faible de dilution sous une lumière intense à 25°C. Les teneurs en chlorophylle a, caroténoïdes et en phycoerythrine augmentent toutes les trois dans les mêmes proportions avec le taux de dilution et sont les plus élevées à 25°C.
    Abstract: Resumen Se estudió el contenido en polisaccaridos, pigmentos y ácidos grasos dePorphyridium cruentum a distintas temperaturas, intensidades lumínicas y porcentajes de dilución en un quimiostato con luz limitada. La mayor cantidad de biomasa para todas las diluciones estudiadas (0.079 a 0.30 día−1) se obtuvo a 25°C. A bajas diluciones los contenidos en ácidos grasos a 20°C, 25°C y 30°C eran comparables. La temperatura no afectó al contenido en ácido linolénico (18∶2), sin embargo los ácidos grasos con menos de dos dobles enlaces se acumularon a temperaturas más bajas. La producción de ácido arachidónico (20∶4) se incrementó bajo la mayor intensidad lumínica ensayada. La producción máxima de polisaccaridos celulares y extracelulares se dió a bajas diluciones en condiciones de alta iluminación a 25°C. Las cantidades de clorofila a, carotenoides y ficoeritrina se incrementaron paralelamente al porcentaje de dilución siendo más elevadas a 25°C.
    Notes: Summary The fatty acid, polysaccharide and pigment contents ofPorphyridium cruentum at different growth temperatures, light intensities and dilution rates were studied in light-limited chemostat. The highest biomass yield was obtained at 25°C over the range of dilution rate studied (0.079 to 0.30 day−1). The production of fatty acids increased with increasing dilution rates. At low dilution rates, the contents of fatty acids at 20°C, 25°C and 30°C were comparable. Temperature did not affect the content of linolenic acid (18∶2) though fatty acids with less than two double bonds predominated at higher temperatures, those with more than two double bonds accumulated at lower temperatures. The yields of arachidonic acid (20∶4) increased under light of higher intensity. The maximum production of extracellular and cellular polysaccharides occured at low dilution rates under high light at 25°C. The amounts of chlorophylla, carotenoids and phycoerythrin all increased in the same proportions with dilution rate, and were highest at 25°C.
