    Notes: Physiological and biochemical changes related to methyl jasmonate (MeJA)-induced chilling tolerance of rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Taichung Native 1) seedlings were investigated. Treatment of whole plants with 10 mmol m−3 MeJA for 48 h before chilling (5 °C) was optimal for the induction of chilling tolerance. MeJA greatly improved the survival ratio of chilled seedlings and ameliorated chilling injury such as demolition of membrane structure (estimated by electrolyte leakage). MeJA also prevented water loss in chilled seedlings by reducing the opening of stomata and decreasing the root bleeding rate. Putrescine and spermine levels in shoots increased but spermidine levels decreased on exposure to MeJA. In roots, putrescine levels also increased and spermidine levels increased transiently on exposure to MeJA. Activities of arginine decarboxylase (ADC; EC 4.1.1.19) and S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (SAMDC; EC 4.1.1.50) in both shoots and roots increased on exposure to MeJA, while the activity of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC; EC 4.1.1.17) remained unchanged. The MeJA-induced putrescine increase was inhibited by 50 mmol m−3α-difluoromethylarginine (DFMA), an irreversible inhibitor of ADC, but not by 50 mmol m−3α-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), an irreversible inhibitor of ODC. The effect of MeJA on the induction of chilling tolerance was also reduced by 50 mmol m−3 DFMA. The effects of DFMA were partly prevented by 1 mol m−3 putrescine. This indicates that putrescine accumulation is required for the induction of chilling tolerance of rice seedlings by MeJA.

    Notes: Changes of ABA levels in chilled rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings of two varieties were determined. On exposure to chilling, ABA concentration rapidly increased in the chilling-tolerant cultivar (cv. Tainung 67, TNG.67) but not in the chilling-sensitive cultivar (cv. Taichung Native 1, TN.1). Both detached shoots and roots of TNG.67 seedlings showed a significant ABA increase after exposure to chilling. TN.1 seedlings could not accumulate ABA under low temperature but well-watered status. Exogenous application of the ABA biosynthetic inhibitor, fluridone, reduced ABA accumulation, as well as survival ratio of chilled TNG.67 seedlings. Electrolyte leakage and leaf conductance were also increased by the inhibitor and the effects could be reversed by exogenously applied ABA. ABA concentrations in xylem sap of TNG.67 seedlings increased within 4 h after chilling, and this was temporally coincident with the reduction of leaf conductance. The roles of endogenous ABA in the tolerance of rice seedlings to chilling on a whole plant basis are discussed and suggested.

    Notes: Abstract This work aims to investigate the effects of three factors, namely: (1) two differently prepared materials (as-polished Ti6A14V and 2 h brazed Ti6A14V); (2) three different surface passivation treatments (34% nitric acid passivation, 400°C heated in air, and aged in 100°C de-ionized water); and (3) periods of immersion time (up to 32 days), on trace element release in Hank's ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA) solution. After passivation and autoclaving treatment, the specimens were immersed in 8.0 mM EDTA in Hank's solution and maintained at 37°C for periods of time up to 32 days. The 400°C -treated specimens exhibit a substantial reduction in constituent release, which may be attributed to the higher thickness and rutile structure of the surface oxides. For acid-passivated and water-aged treatments, a highly significant decrease in the trace levels of Ti, A1, and V is detected from the brazed Ti6A14V compared to those obtained from the Ti6A14V specimens. It is hypothesized that an anatase–rutile transformation of surface TiO2 is likely to occur, accelerated by the elements of copper and nickel in the brazed specimens. In addition, a significant time-related decrease in constituent release rate is observed for all kinds of specimens throughout the 0–8 day experimental period. The implication of the results is discussed. © 1999 Kluwer Academic Publishers

    Notes: Abstract The corrosion characteristics of the brazed Ti6Al4V specimens were analysed and compared with respect to the conventionally heat-treated specimens by an electrochemical corrosion test. The object of this research was to explore the potentiality of the brazed titanium for biomaterials. The characteristics of the 1300 °C heat-treated and the 970 °C brazed specimens, with passivation and sterilization treatment, were evaluated by measurement of corrosion potential, Ecorr, corrosion current densities, Icorr, polarization resistance of the reacted surface films, Rp, in a potentiodynamic test. The experimental results show that the corrosion rates of the heat-treated and the brazed samples are similar at Ecorr, and the value of Ecorr for the brazed sample is noble to the heat-treated samples. The passive current density of the brazed specimen is either lower or higher than the heat-treated specimen, depending on the polarization potential. By Auger electron spectroscopic and high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis on specimens from the potentiostatic test, the elements of copper and nickel in the brazing filler were not detected while less alumina was found in the reacted film of the brazed specimens when compared with the heat-treated specimens. The implication of the results is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract The properties of passivated films for Ti6Al4V alloy prepared by various methods (as-polished, brazed at 970 °C for 2 h and brazed at 970 °C for 8 h) were investigated. Four passivations (non-treated, nitric acid passivation, 400 °C-treated in air, and aged in boiling water), with or without autoclaving treatments, were adopted for evaluating the changes of surface properties, including chemical composition, chemical structure, and oxide thickness. From X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic (XPS) analyses, surface elements of copper and nickel in brazed samples were undetected for non-treated, acid-passivated and boiling water-aged specimens, while they were found in the 400 °C-treated specimen. The relative contents of Ti2++Ti3+ to Ti4+ were determined by passivation treatments, but were not related to the experimental materials and autoclaving treatment. Passivation and autoclaving decreased the Ti to Ti4+ ratio by virtue of an increase in oxide thickness. Of the four types of passivation treatment, the 400 °C thermal treatment exhibited the lowest content of suboxides and metallic elements and the thickest oxide by XPS analysis; however, this treatment may cause a desorption of the basic OH group in the hydration layer on the surface of titanium alloy.
