    Notes: 1 This study evaluated the inhibitory action of apigenin-7-O-β-d-glucuronopyranoside (AGC), apigenin, and omeprazole on reflux oesophagitis and gastritis in rats. AGC was isolated from Clerodendron trichotomum leaves. 2 Oesophagitis and gastritis were induced by surgical procedure and the administration of indomethacin, respectively. The intraduodenal (i.d.) administration of AGC decreased the volume of gastric juice and increased the gastric pH compared with apigenin and omeprazole. The acid output was more inhibited by AGC in a dose-dependent manner than by apigenin and omeprazole. Compared with apigenin and omeprazole, AGC significantly decreased the size of gastric lesions, which were induced by exposure of the gastric mucosa to indomethacin. 3 Malondialdehyde (MDA) content, which is the end product of lipid peroxidation, was increased significantly after the induction of reflux oesophagitis. The MDA content was decreased by AGC (i.d. 3 mg kg−1), but not by either apigenin or omeprazole. This suggests that AGC has an antioxidative effect. In the oesophagitis group, the mucosal levels of glutathione (GSH) were significantly lower than that in the normal group. However, the GSH levels were preserved after administering the AGC, suggesting that AGC possesses scavenging activity. 4 In summary, AGC is more potent than apigenin and omeprazole at inhibiting reflux oesophagitis and gastritis and may therefore be a promising drug for their treatment.

    Notes: Tactile object discrimination is one of the major manual skills of humans. While the exploring finger movements are not perceived explicitly, attention to the movement-evoked kinaesthetic information gates the tactile perception of object form. Using event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging in seven healthy subjects we found one area in the right superior parietal cortex, which was specifically activated by kinaesthetic attention during tactile object discrimination. Another area with similar location in the left hemisphere was related to the maintenance of tactile information for subsequent object discrimination. We conclude that kinaesthetic information is processed in the anterior portion of the superior parietal cortex (aSPL) with a right hemispheric predominance for discrimination and a left hemispheric predominance for information maintenance.

    Notes: A significant charge transfer, which differs from tunneling, over thick AlxGa1−xAs barrier in GaAs/AlxGa1−xAs asymmetric double quantum wells is studied by cw photoluminescence excitation (PLE) and time-resolved photoluminescence. It is found that 300-A(ring)-thick Al0.3Ga0.7As barrier is universally "leaky'' with transport time of ∼300 ps, while AlAs and AlAs/GaAs digital alloy barriers with same thickness are not. Aided by a model calculation, we suggest that the intrinsic inhomogeneities in the alloy, which recent x-ray and scanning tunneling microscope studies revealed, may be responsible. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract As one of the intrinsically polarizable materials used in electrorheological (ER) fluid, polyaniline was synthesized by the chemical oxidation of aniline with ammonium peroxysulfate. ER fluids were prepared by dispersing polyaniline particles in silicone oil, and their rheological properties were measured. The effect of the polymerization temperature of polyaniline on its ER characteristics was investigated. ER fluids with polyaniline particles synthesized at −10°C (PA-10) showed the best ER performance (yield stress) compared with those synthesized at higher temperatures. A difference in the flow behavior of the ER fluids was also investigated through the dielectric spectra of ER fluids.

    Notes: Abstract Electrorheological (ER) characteristics of ER fluids, composed of suspensions of semiconducting polyaniline and two different copolyaniline particles in silicone oil, were determined experimentally. Ionic sodium diphenylamine sulfonate and nonionic o-ethoxyaniline were used to synthesize copolyanilines, i.e. N-substituted copolyaniline and poly(aniline-co-o-ethoxyaniline), respectively. ER fluids composed of these three different polymers were compared with respect to their rheological properties under an applied electric field. It was found that ER fluids containing a copolymer with an ionic group exhibited the highest ER performance among polyaniline and its copolymer systems in a shear-rate region above 1 s−1.

    Notes: Abstract  Polymer-induced turbulent drag reduction in a rotating disk apparatus was investigated using nonionic poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) in a synthetic saline solution with novel application to ocean thermal energy conversion technology. A maximum total (skin friction plus form) drag reduction of 30% was obtained with 50 wppm of PEO with molecular weight 5.0 × 106. The concentration dependence of the percentage drag reduction for the PEO/saline solution system is found to fit Virk's empirical correlation, and a universal correlation for various molecular weights and Reynolds numbers is also presented. Furthermore, hydrodynamic volume fraction was introduced to correlate drag reduction efficiency with molecular parameters in this PEO/saline solution system.

    Notes: Abstract The electrorheological (ER) properties of dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (DBSA) doped polyaniline suspensions in silicone oil were investigated. In contrast to chemically polymerized polyaniline in an acidic aqueous medium by oxidation polymerization, we adopted an emulsion polymerization technique in which aniline is polymerized in an emulsion of water and a nonpolar (or weakly polar) organic solvent. The effects of electric field strength and particle concentration on the ER properties of DBSA-doped polyaniline suspensions in silicone oil were then examined. Rheological measurements were also carried out using a rotational rheometer with a high-voltage generator in both controlled shear rate and shear stress modes, and the results showed that the ER properties were enhanced by increasing the particle concentration and electric field.
