    Notes: A computer modeling concept was developed to deal with multicomponent emulsion copolymerization systems. Based on the model, a simulating program called NSBEC (n-component, semibatch emulsion copolymerization) was prepared., NSBEC is capable of carrying out a variety of operations involving any number of monomers with different modes of ingredient feed. In this paper, first the basic concept of the model is explained, then several applications to the actual experimental systems (e.g., acrylonitrile-vinylidene chloride, vinyl acetate-butyl acrylate, and methyl methacrylate-butyl acrylate) are discussed. Finally, the probable control of copolymer composition by means of the semibatch operation based on NSBEC is proposed. The authors expect that use of NSBEC can substantially reduce the number of experimental runs previously required to describe the system.

    Notes: A battery of fluorochrome- or peroxidase-coupled lectins, reacting with α-or β-galactose (Gal), terminal N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc), or Gal-(β1-3)-GalNAc residues, was used to study the emergence and distribution of cellular glycoconjugates in developing and adult rat glomeruli. Neuraminidase pretreatment of the specimens was applied to monitor the maturation of the glomerular sialogly-coprotein coat.In the adult glomeruli, the lectin conjugates applied reacted sparsely or not at all, but most of them showed an increased reactivity with podocytes and/or the glomerular basement membrane after neuraminidase treatment. In the embryonic glomeruli, lectins reacting with β-Gal residues prominently bound to the basement membranes, as revealed in double-staining with laminin antibodies. This reactivity decreased first during late postnatal development. Some terminal Gal-(β1-3)-GalNAc residues were noted in the earliest podocytes, but obviously soon became covered by sialylation. Furthermore, the developing podocytes prominently displayed α-Gal residues, as marked by Maclura pomifera (MPA) and Jacalin reactivities but not by the GSA-I conjugates. During postnatal maturation these reactivities also decreased. The GalNAc-specific Helix pomatia (HPA) and Helix aspersa (HAA) agglutinins bound to basement membranes of evolving podocytes but later revealed in the podocytes only a Golgi-like cytoplasmic reactivity. These two lectins showed a marked difference in their binding to tubular basement membranes.In lectin blotting experiments of electrophoretically separated polypeptides transferred onto nitrocellulose, the peanut agglutinin (PNA) and MPA conjugates revealed upon neuraminidase treatment a broad Mr 140,000 polypeptide, compatible with podocalyxin, both in isolated developing and adult glomeruli. The MPA conjugate revealed a similar polypeptide in developing glomeruli, even without neuraminidase treatment. Similar experiments with the HPA and HAA conjugates revealed different polypeptides in both adult and developing glomeruli.Obviously, in the rat kidney the maturation of the podocyte sialoglycoprotein coat and the glomerular basement membranes are multiphasic processes that continue even during late postnatal development.
