    Notes: Abstract  Data from a direct current resistivity survey and geologic logs from boreholes were used to map the top of permafrost at a remote air force installation in Alaska. This study resulted from a remedial investigation that was conducted at Eielson Air Force Base near Fairbanks, Alaska, under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) regulations. The depth and continuity of the permafrost was important in determining the fate of petroleum contamination that was inadvertently discharged to the ground during earlier air force operations. The results indicate that the top of permafrost forms a highly irregular surface. In general, however, the top of permafrost forms a diagonal ridge at the center of the contour grid that is bordered on each side by troughs.

    Notes: Abstract Chronic treatment with the antihypertensive drug hydralazine did not affect the hyperglycemic state of streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetic rats but did prevent the serum hyperlipidemia that is synonymous with these diabetic animals. After 6 weeks, untreated STZ-diabetic rats exhibited a 659% increase in serum triglycerides and 292% increase in serum cholesterol versus age-matched non-diabetic rats. Hydralazine-treated STZ-diabetic rats had serum triglyceride and cholesterol levels that did not differ from controls. Myocytes from control rats showed a preference for binding of the unsaturated fatty acid analog cis-parinaric acid vs the saturated fatty acid analog trans-parinaric acid. This preference was not altered in STZ-diabetic rat myocytes; hydralazine-treatment of STZ-diabetic rats also showed no change in fatty acid preference. STZ-diabetes caused a decrease in the affinity (Kd) for the trans, but not the cis-parinaric acid. However, total binding of both analogs was increased in STZ-diabetes. Hydralazine treatment of STZ-diabetic rats resulted in even greater total binding of both analogs. Affinity for the trans analog was further decreased in these hydralazine-treated rats, but the affinity for the cis analog was increased beyond control animals. These results suggest that the diabetic state influences the binding characteristics of the myocardial PM-FABP and that hydralazine, while reducing serum lipids in diabetes, has complex effects on the fatty acid binding by this protein.

    Notes: Abstract Properties of the myocardial PM-FABP were studied in normal and STZ-diabetic rats. The fluorescent fatty acids trans-parinaric and cis-parinaric acids were used as analogs of straight-chain (saturated) and kinked-chain (unsaturated) fatty acids respectively. Parinaric acid binding was sensitive to trypsin. Trans-parinaric acid binding was more sensitive to this protease than the binding of cis-parinaric acid. Based on the difference in sensitivity of parinaric acid binding we believe that there are two separate binding sites associated with myocardial PM-FABP; one for unsaturated fats and the other for saturated fats. Diabetes enhanced both cis- and trans-parinaric acid binding capacity in cardiomyocytes; cis-parinaric acid by 2 fold and trans-parinaric acid by 2.6 fold. In addition, there was a concomitant accumulation of free fatty acids and triglycerides in the hearts of the diabetic animals. There was a 2.2 fold increase for fatty acids and a 1.6 fold increase for trigylcerides. This association between myocardial fatty acid build-up and enhanced myocardial PM-FABP during diabetes suggest that this carrier protein might have contributed to lipid accumulation in the hearts of the diabetic rats.

    Notes: A combined magnetic sector-time-of-flight instrument has been constructed and used with both continuous (liquid secondary ion mass spectrometry and electrospray ionization) and pulsed (matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization) ion sources. The design includes provision for both low- and high-energy gas collision induced decompositions and orthogonal acceleration of the product ions into the time-of-flight mass analyser. Tandem mass spectra may be acquired for singly and multiply charged precursor ions and reliable mass measurements are easily obtained. Product-ion mass spectra are quite reproducible regardless of any instability in the precursor ion beam intensity.
