    Notes: The most intense and widely distributed sudanophilic responses of cryostat-sectioned newt limb tissues were obtained with a simultaneous fix and stain procedure of 1:1 10% formal-calcium and sudan black B. Droplets and globules of lipid mixtures and rodlets (mitochondria) were typical responses distributed within the epidermis, subcutaneous glands, dermis and other connective tissues, striated muscle (also with positive fibrils), tunics of blood vessels, and blood cells. A prominent droplet response was located subjacent to the adepidermal basement membrane. The myelin of brachial nerve stained intensely.In regenerating limbs, the wound epithelium response was comparable to that of epidermis. Post-amputational lipophanerosis of injured muscle and brachial nerves was observed. The retrograde degeneration of nerve myelin was extensive, and continued into the early differentiative phase of regeneration. Lipid-engorged macrophages were prominent among the injured tissues, distal to these, and within the wound epithelium.The regeneration blastema revealed a large quantity of sudanophilic lipid. Prominent droplet and rodlet responses were typical of the myelinating regenerating nerves. The response of regenerating muscle equaled that of the mature stump fibers. The cells of the regenerating chondroskeleton contained sudanophilic lipid.Organic solvents such as acetone, ether, chloroform and chloroform:methanol reduced or prevented the sudanophilic responses. Sudan red 7B revealed less lipid than did sudan black B. A fixation effect was demonstrated with post-chromated formalcalcium, and chromic-formalin fixed sections. In the latter preparations, swollen-bodies, identified as mitochondria, stained intensely.

    Notes: Adult newts placed in an atmospheric environment of 85% oxygen, saturated humidity, and at a temperature of 20 ± 1°C survived particularly well a 44-day test period. They did not succumb to “oxygen toxicity” as has been frequently reported for other vertebrate species.Having established the newt's tolerance of high oxygen atmosphere, the effect of oxygen on growth and development in the regenerating newt limb was investigated. Under the atmospheric conditions described above, and under 92% oxygen, the regeneration of adult newt limbs appeared to be retarded during the first 25 days after amputation when compared with regenerating limbs of control animals kept under a normal atmosphere of 21% oxygen (air). Thereafter, little or no difference could be discerned between the regeneration of experimental and control limbs.It is known that molecular oxygen participates directly in the hydroxylation of proline to hydroxyproline in the synthesis of collagen. Sectioned regenerates stained specifically for collagen were examined to determine if collagen synthesis was induced in experimental animals. Two regeneration-inhibited limbs of oxygenated newts showed cicatrical repair of the apical limb stump 25 days after amputation. However, the majority of the experimental animals revealed no obvious increase in collagen fibers.These results contraindicate any marked “oxygen toxicity” affecting the life of the newts, or regeneration of their limbs. It is suggested that a change in collagen fiber type might have been induced by the high-oxygen atmosphere. Investigations to test this hypothesis are currently underway.

    Notes: Many anthraquinone dyes fade in visible light up to 100 times faster in styrene butadiene copolymers than in polyester resins or polystyrene. A mechanistic investigation of the photofading of 1,5-dihydroxy-2,6-diisobutyl-4-thiophenylanthraquinone has established that the dye sensitizes formation of singlet oxygen, a very reactive species, which attacks the double bonds in the styrene butadiene, resulting in extensive chain cleavage and peroxide formation. The major process is the oxidation of the polymer, and the dye fading is a minor process whereby the dye is apparently attacked by polymeric peroxides. The mechanism appears to be general for anthraquinone dyes, especially those with thioether, amino, hydroxy, or double-bond functionality. Unfortunately the fading is unaffected by most anticxidant stabilizers: the best result achieved was a doubling of half-life with 1 wt% Spinuvex A-36. This is still insufficient to give colored styrene butadiene copolymer resins the intrinsic dye stability available in other polymers, rendering styrene butadiene unsuitable for applications requiring high photostability of anthraquinone dyes.

    Notes: Over the past 15 years the linear learning machine has been applied to a large number of chemical problems. The learning machine approach is conceptually simple and does not require knowledge about the statistical distribution of the data. However, there are problems associated with this approach. One problem which has not been investigated is the influence of mislabeled samples on the positioning of the hyperplane in feature space. If a few samples in a data set are incorrectly tagged prior to training (i.e. the samples are labeled as members of class 2 even though they are actually members of class 1), it is still possible using the linear learning machine to achieve a classification success rate of 100% for the training set. However, unfavorable results will be obtained for the prediction set. The magnitude of this effect and its potential implications regarding the proper use of the linear learning machine are discussed.

    Notes: The basic features of a three-step experimental process to produce supermicron polymer particles are described. First, a submicron emulsifier-free latex is prepared by a well-known technique. Second, the latex is aggregated by destabilizing with cetyl pyridinium chloride under constant stirring conditions, to yield roughly spherical clusters of 6-12 μ diameter. Third, the aggregates are stabilized with poly(vinyl alcohol) and internally coalesced by heating at or above the glass transition temperature. The final product particles have relatively smooth surfaces. Results are qualitatively interpreted in terms of a dynamic equilibrium where the aggregate size is determined by a balance between attractive interparticle potentials and stirring shear forces. Bimodal aggregate size distributions suggest the aggregate break-up mechanism may involve the erosion of individual latex particles and small fragments from the surface of aggregates. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Central to the function of myosin is its ability to assemble into thick filaments which interact precisely and specifically with other myofibrillar proteins. We have established a novel experimental system for studying myofibrillogenesis using transient transfections of COS cells, a monkey kidney cell line. We have expressed both full-length rat α cardiac myosin heavy chain (MHC) and a truncated heavy meromyosin-like α MHC (sHMM) and shown that immunoreactive MHC proteins of the expected sizes were detected in lysates of transfected cells. Surprisingly, the full-length MHC formed large spindle-shaped structures throughout the cytoplasm of transfected cells as determined by immunofluorescence microscopy. The structures were not found in cells expressing the sHMM construct, indicating that their formation required an MHC rod. The spindle-shaped structures ranged in length from approximately 1 μm to over 20 μm in length and were birefringent suggesting that they are ordered arrays of thick filaments. This was confirmed by electron microscopic analysis of the transfected cells which revealed arrays of filamentous structures approximately 12 nm in diameter at their widest point. In addition, the vast majority of transfected MHC did not associate with the endogenous nonmuscle myosin light chains, demonstrating that myosin thick filaments can form in the absence of stoichiometric amounts of myosin light chains. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Changing solvent has a dramatic effect on the outcome of HPC stabilized dispersion polymerization of styrene in polar solvents. In methoxyethanol/ethanol mixtures, particle size varies from essentially infinity for unstabilized reactions (below 30% ethanol) to about 3 microns in ethanol. In a series of n-alcohols, there was a maximum in particle size at intermediate chain length: particle size increased from 2 microns in methanol to 8.3 microns in pentanol, then decreased again to 1 micron in octadecanol. These results were rationalized in terms of the three-component Hansen solubility parameters. The largest particles were obtained in solvents with Hanson polarity and hydrogen bonding terms closest to HPC. The generality of the three-component solubility parameter approach was examined by reactions performed in eight mixed solvents with the same values of all three Hansen terms. Seven of the eight solvents gave particles of similar size and molecular weight. The two critical effects of solvent on both particle size and molecular weight appear to be: (a) the solubility properties of the grafted HPC-PS formed, and (b) the partitioning of monomer and initiator between solution and particle phases subsequent to nucleation.

    Control of surfactant level in starve-fed emulsion polymerization. I. Sulfate-containing oligomers: Preparation and application as surfactant in emulsion polymerization (1995)

    Notes: It is well known that the amount of surfactant must be carefully controlled during starve-fed emulsion polymerization processes. Too little surfactant leads to emulsion instability and coagulation, while too much surfactant leads to secondary particle formation. Although these relationships are qualitatively understood in the art, there is little quantitative basis to guide the synthetic chemist, especially in multistep starve-fed emulsion polymerization processes to make larger supermicron particles. We have developed a method, which will be described in a companion article, to control the surfactant level by monitoring the surface tension during polymerization. In order to quantitatively predict how much surfactant to add at any given time, one needs to know in advance the adsorption characteristics of the soap. Further complicating the matter is the formation of “in situ” or oligomeric surfactant during polymerization with aqueous initiators such as ammonium persulfate.This work demonstrates how to prepare surface-active oligomers and how to make latex particles using them as surfactant. First, we established the mass balance for the initiator-derived sulfate groups in seed latexes by conductometric, potentiometric, and iodometric titrations. Based on the characterization of seed latexes, a method for determining the effective sulfate concentration has been developed. When surface-active oligomers were used as the only surfactant, we obtained a series of monodisperse, supermicron copolymer latex particles with diameters up to 3.22 μm. This is a similar result to that obtained with a commercially made anionic surfactant. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Arene-iron chemistry was applied in the synthesis of a novel liquid crystalline polymer. The chemistry, which is based on iron cyclopentadienyl (FeCp) arene complexes, allows sequential nucleophilic substitution of the chlorides from 1,3-dichlorobenzene-FeCp complex and photolytic decomplexation of the products to afford asymmetrical aryl ethers. This methodology provides easy access to novel polyether-esters, and is potentially useful in the synthesis of various functional polyarylates. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
