    Notes: Large variations in the microstructure of 1,4-polyisoprenes, from ca. 100% cis-trialkylethylene groups, as in natural rubber (NR), to ca. 40% cis- and 60% trans-trialkylethylene groups, as in an equilibrium-isomerized NR, have little influence on the overall chemistry of vulcanization of the polyisoprenes by a N-cyclohexylbenzothiazole-2-sulfenamide-accelerated sulfur system or by a dicumyl peroxide system. The peroxide crosslinks the equilibrium-isomerized NR more efficiently than it crosslinks NR; this is attributed to the sulfur dioxide, which is used to isomerize the NR, scavenging some of the nonrubber constituents in the NR, which are known to compete with the rubber hydrocarbon for reaction with free radicals from the peroxide. By comparison with NR vulcanizates, the corresponding equilibrium-isomerized NR vulcanizates have higher values of the C2 term of the Mooney-Rivlin stress-strain equation and higher χ (polymer-swelling liquid interaction parameter) values of the Flory-Huggins equation.

    Notes: The frequency dependence of electromagnetic field-induced calcium-ion efflux from chicken brain tissues has been examined at 15-Hz intervals over the range 1-510 Hz. The electric field component was 15 Vrms/m and the magnetic component varied between 59 and 69 nTrms. No patterns of response as a function of frequency could be readily discerned when the differences in mean efflux values between exposed and sham samples were compared. However, the calculated P-value, a function that combines at each frequency the difference between the means of the exposed and sham groups with the variance of each group, does provide a basis for hypothesizing the existence of three frequency-dependent patterns in the data. One pattern includes all the highly significant (P 〈 .01) responses which occur between 15 and 315 Hz, at 30-Hz intervals; two independent trials at 165 Hz, giving nonsignificant responses (P 〉 .5), break this pattern into two groups of five frequencies each, which is contrary to the expected result for a simple Lorentz-force interaction. However, another pattern of significant results at 60, 90, and 180 Hz, but not at 300 Hz, is consistent with a Lorentz-force model. A third pattern, composed of only one significant response at 405 Hz, is very close to the resonance predicted on a linear extrapolation from high-frequency data for 13carbon atoms. This hypothetical ordering of the frequency-response profile provides the basis for future experimental designs to test each possible interaction model and for their connection to the calcium-ion efflux endpoint.

    Notes: The frequency dependence of the electric and magnetic (EM)-field-induced release of calcium ions from an in vitro brain tissue preparation has been shown to be a function of the density of the local DC magnetic field (BdC). In this study, we demonstrate that the relative orientation of the Bdc and the magnetic component (Bac) of a 315-Hz EM signal (15 Vrms/m and 61 nTrms) are crucial for the induced release to be observed. The induced release occurs only when the Bdc and the Bac are perpendicular, and not when they are parallel. This finding is consistent with a magnetic resonance-like transduction mechanism for the conversion of EM energy into a physicochemical change, and contrasts with the requirement for parallel Bdc and Bac components in the diatom-mobility experiments of Smith et al. A review of the exposure conditions in the rat behavioral experiments conducted by Thomas et al. identifies unhydrated calcium and zinc ions as alternatives to lithium ions as candidates for interaction under parallel magnetic-field orientations but fails to reject perpendicular orientations as an alternative basis for the phenomenon. Investigators that attempt to confirm the rat behavioral experiments should be aware of the conflicting exposure conditions that can be assumed to be operative, and they should design their experiments to test all conditions accordingly.
