    Notes: Abstract In this article a GIS method is presented for riparian environmental buffer generation. It integrates a scientifically tested buffer width delineation model into a GIS framework. Using the generally available data sets, it determines buffer widths in terms of local physical conditions and expected effectiveness. Technical burdens of data management, computation, and result presentation are handled by the GIS. The case study in which the method was used to evaluate the stream buffer regulations in a North Carolina county demonstrates its capability as a decision support tool to facilitate environmental policy formulation and evaluation, and environmental dispute resolution.

    Notes: Abstract The antigenic “a” determinant of the human hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) is highly conserved and involved in inducing neutralizing antibody. Mutations on this determinant have been associated with the hepatitis B virus (HBV) escape from vaccination but are also found in chronic HBV carriers, but their involvement in liver diseases including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is unclear. To investigate the possible liver disease-associated role of HBsAg mutants, their incidence was analyzed in 11 paraffin embedded HCC tissues using an improved DNA extraction method. Mutations on the “a” determinant (Thr126Ser, Gly145Arg, a double mutant Thr126Ser/Gln129Asn, Met133Leu and Thr140Ile) were identified in 5 samples while the wild type sequence was found in 2 others. Future characterization of these HCC-associated HBsAg mutants should provide new insights on their role in the pathogenesis of HCC.
