    Notes: Abstract We have searched for cold fusion produced in an electrolytic cell with Pd cathode and Pt anode. The electrolyte was 0.1 molar LiOD in 99.8% D2O. A 2-mm rod of polycrystalline Pd and a 4-mm rod of single crystal Pd were used. No radiation was detected above background by a BF3 neutron and Ge γ-X detector. The D2 loading of the Pd was 0.8 D per Pd atom reaching saturation after 4 hours. We also attempted to duplicate the work of Scaramuzzi and co-workers on the Ti-D2 system. Both powder and pieces of Ti were used. The material was cycled several times between 1100 K and 77 K. No neutron, γ- or x-ray emission above background was observed. The results of a barrier penetration calculation for H-like atoms are presented. The high fusion rates reported for PdD x . are much larger than those expected from theoretical calculations on these systems.

    Sucrose in the diet of diabetic patients — just another carbohydrate? (1986)
    Springer
    Diabetologia 29 (1986), S. 216-220 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-0428
    Keywords: Sucrose ; carbohydrate ; diabetic diet ; metabolic control

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary The effects of regularly eating sucrose were studied in 23 diabetic patients, 12 Type 1 (insulin-dependent) and 11 Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent), with differing degrees of glycaemic control. Two diets, each lasting 6 weeks, were compared in a randomised cross-over study. Both diets were high in fibre and low in fat. In one diet 45 g of complex carbohydrate was replaced by 45 g of sucrose taken at mealtimes. There were no significant biochemical differences between the two diets in either Type 1 or Type 2 patients. In Type 1 patients the mean (±SEM) fasting plasma glucose was 10.5 (1.8) mmol/1 on the control diet and 10.3 (1.5) mmol/1 on sucrose. In Type 2 patients the levels were 9.1 (0.8) mmol/1 and 8.9 (0.8) mmol/l respectively. Glycosylated haemoglobin for the Type 1 patients was 9.9% on control and 10.3% on sucrose; for Type 2 patients the figures were 9.3% and 9.0% respectively. There were no differences in mean daily plasma glucose levels or diurnal glucose profiles. Cholesterol (total and in lipoprotein fractions) was unchanged, as were diurnal triglyceride profiles and plasma insulin profiles in the Type 2 patients. There were no changes in medication or body weight. We conclude that a moderate amount of sucrose taken daily at mealtimes does not cause deterioration in metabolic control in diabetic patients following a high fibre/low fat diet.

    Lacticacidosis, neurological deterioration and compromised cellular pyruvate oxidation due to a defect in the reoxidation of cytoplasmically generated NADH (1983)
    Springer
    European journal of pediatrics 140 (1983), S. 98-101

    ISSN: 1432-1076
    Keywords: Lacticacidosis ; Neurological deterioration ; Redox disequilibrium

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Two patients, one dying at 25 days and one at 20 months had ‘chronic’ lactic acidaemia with a high lactate to pyruvate ratio. Both showed EEG abnormalities and seizure activity and both died of respiratory failure. Investigation of cultured skin fibroblasts from these patients revealed normal pyruyate dehydrogenase and pyruvate carboxylase activities but the cells showed a decreased ability to oxidise pyruvate which was returned to normal on the addition of methylene blue. Subsequent investigations revealed that the mitochondria from the patients' cells could oxidise pyruvate normally but that the cells had an abnormal NAD to NADH ratio under standard conditions of incubation. It was concluded that both children had a redox disequilibrium in the cytoplasmic compartment due to a problem in transporting reducing equivalents from the cytoplasmic to the mitochondrial compartments.

    Measurement of phase equilibria at high pressures by tracer-pulse chromatography (1966)
    Hoboken, NJ : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: Tracer-pulse chromatography allows the accurate measurement of sorption isotherms even at elevated pressures and in systems with more than one solute. Vapor equilibria of normally liquid solutes are best measured by scintillation counting of a liquid in which the column effluent and the emergent radioactive pulse are absorbed. An example is the equilibrium adsorption of n-heptane by molecular sieves at 200°C. and at pressures up to 3 atm. Sorption equilibria of permanent gases are measured by use of a more conventional differential technique wherein the column effluent passes through an ion chamber. Its use is illustrated by the equilibrium adsorption of methane by activated charcoal at pressures up to 70 atm.
