    Notes: A program is under way to develop charge-coupled device (CCD) sensors for space-based x-ray astronomy imaging spectrometers. To date, laboratory line emission spectra have been acquired throughout the range of 277 to 8000 eV (carbon through copper Kα emission) and CCD sensitivity has been demonstrated throughout the range of 1.1 through 8000 eV. Image resolution is excellent, limited almost entirely by the 15-μm pixel size. These results are presented and specialized techniques are described which permit such low energy response, high spectral resolution, and efficient charge collection. Finally, analysis is presented of one particular CCD characteristic which currently limits UV and x-ray performance: charge diffusion.

    Notes: The breakdown voltage (VBD) in a semiconductor is usually proportional to its band-gap (Eg) through the dependence of the impact ionization process on the threshold voltage (Eth). It has recently been suggested that strain can cause Eth to increase even when Eg decreases, raising the possibility of narrow band-gap materials with large VBD. By growing a range of strained InGaAs/GaAs multiple quantum well (MQW) pin diode structures and measuring VBD, we show that the presence of strained InGaAs increases VBD confirming that it has a larger Eth than GaAs.

    Notes: As there is a lack of data on solidifying animal fats under thermal conditions akin to those existing during commercial chilling and freezing processes, the apparent specific heats and enthalpies of pork, beef and lamb adipose tissues in the temperature range +40 to -40°C were determined dynamically during cooling at linear rates by differential scanning calorimetry. The temperature variation of specific heat and overall enthalpy change measured during cooling were found to differ from similar measurements made during subsequent heating. For the cooling rates used (0.312, 0.625 and 1.25°C/min) the rate of cooling had only a minor effect on specific heat. The freezing of tissue water showed high degrees of supercooling.

    Notes: A novel approach to investigating the physical properties of meat is described, involving measurement of the temperature change induced by adiabatic compression. After satisfactory tests on water, the method was used to obtain data for the thermal expansivity, density and ratio of specific heats of muscle tissue between about -24 and + 16°C.

    Notes: Grillsteaks were prepared from lean beef flaked at –4°C and subsequently mixed at nominal temperatures of either –3°C or +1°C with each combination of five sodium chloride levels (0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0%) and three levels of sodium tripolyphosphate (Na5P3O10) (0, 0.25 and 0.50%).Sodium chloride was more effective than sodium tripolyphosphate in lowering the initial freezing point (ifp) of meat, as measured by differential scanning calorimetry which also showed that the freezing point depression was proportional to the solute concentration.Cooking losses generally were lower with higher levels of sodium chloride and sodium tripolyphosphate, and when the meat was mixed at +1°C. It is argued that localized salt concentrations can influence product quality, as can the relative proportions of ice and water when meat is processed below the ifp.

    Notes: The stresses developed in the centre of cylindrical samples of beef and pork muscle were measured with a miniature pressure transducer during freezing, storage and thawing. During freezing, internal compression developed at a rate that increased as freezing progressed and most of the pressure was developed after the centre had commenced to freeze. Generally the circumferential tension in the outer surface of the muscle reached breaking point and a shallow crack formed along the length of the muscle, or the surface yielded causing a bulge. the internal stress then fell rapidly and subsequently recovered. the investigation showed that the stresses developed in meat during freezing can reach much higher values than hitherto recorded, a maximum stress of almost 60 bars being obtained in one particular sample. When the frozen muscles were stored at the temperature at which they were frozen the axial compressive stress declined exponentially, while the radial stress, after a brief period of initial decline, generally increased. When the samples were thawed in ambient air the radial and axial stress decreased initially, generally becoming tensile. This was followed by a recovery of the compressive stress which subsequently gradually declined as the temperature of the centre increased.

    Notes: Summary. The thermal conductivities of the components of meat were determined by two rapid methods. Values for muscles and fats at tempera-tures between - 19°C and ± 37°C were obtained using the probe method, and for bones at OC, 19°C and 70°C using the thermal comparator method.

    Notes: The post mortem heat production in beef at body temperature has been measured by observing the rise in temperature of the muscles M. semitendinosus and M. extensor carpi radialis when enclosed in an insulated container submerged in a water bath at 37°C. The variation with time of the muscle's radial temperature profile was measured using a multi-junction thermocouple probe and a data logger, and this enabled the heat loss to be calculated. The mean values obtained for the total heat production during rigor mortis were 6·4 kJ/kg for M. semitendinosus and 7·9 kJ/kg for M. extensor carpi radialis, these being equivalent to temperature rises of 1·8°C and 2·2°C respectively, in perfectly insulated muscles. The heat production per unit decrease in pH averaged 5·4 kJ/kg for M. semitendinosus and 6·8 kJ/kg for M. extensor carpi radialis. The rate of heat production reached a mean maximum level of 1·5 kj/kg hr, which was maintained until 4–5 hr post mortem before decreasing to zero. These results are in general conformity with calculations based on the known relations of glycogen, phosphocreatine and ATP.

    Notes: An oxygen microelectrode was applied to the measurement of the penetration of oxygen into lean meat exposed to the air. The variation of oxygen penetration with time, temperature and muscle type was investigated. Results show that penetration increases fairly linearly with time, until heavy surface contamination occurs. Fairly large variations were observed between different muscles. The results were compared with related colour and muscle-respiration data.

    Notes: The variation of expansivity, α, of beef M. semitendinosus with moisture content was determined by measurement of the temperature change induced by adiabatic compression over the moisture content range 2 to 90%, at temperatures (T) of 1, 8 and 15°C. At low levels of hydration, α increased with moisture content, reached a maximum around 35% water, and thereafter decreased. The data suggested that thermal expansivity is related to water binding, and the application of a simple expansivity model based on ‘free’ water, ‘bound’ water and dry-solids, gave a value for the expansivity of ‘bound’ water at 8°C of 8.9±1.7x10-4°C-1, about seventeen times that of ‘free’ water.
