    Notes: In sheep, essentially all the neurokinin B (NKB) neurones of the infundibular nucleus express oestradiol receptor α, and analysis of female and male brains has revealed an exceptionally marked female-dominant sex difference in the numbers of NKB neurones in the infundibular nucleus. This neuronal population is located in an oestradiol-sensitive brain area involved in the control of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion and oestrous behaviour, but its physiological role is poorly documented. The aim of the present study was to analyse NKB mRNA expression at a crucial time when the steroid has stimulated the pathways leading to the induction of these two events. After cloning a specific ovine NKB antisense riboprobe, we examined the effects of a short oestradiol treatment (4 h subcutaneously) on the expression of NKB mRNA in the caudal part of the infundibular nucleus of progesterone-primed ovariectomized ewes. We demonstrated that oestradiol decreased both the level of NKB mRNA expression (34%) and the number of cells containing NKB mRNA (43%). Oestradiol acts strongly on these NKB cells in the short term. We suggest that this early change in NKB mRNA expression during the preovulatory period might be involved in the control of the induction of GnRH secretion or oestrous behaviour.

    Notes: Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) studies of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET)/poly/(amide-6,6) (PA) blends are presented. The blends were prepared in the molten state and in solution with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) as the solvent. The PET/PA blend is a complex system containing, two crystallizable polymers with the ability to interact chemically. Some of the blends were prepared in the molten state in the presence of a catalytic amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid (TsOH) to undergo the ester-amide interchange reaction. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and FT-IR have proven to be excellent techniques with which to study these blends. 1HNMR was used to follow the ester-amide interchange reaction and FT-IR to detect the presence of hydrogen bonding. FT-IR studies showed the lack of hydrogen bonding in all the blends prepared in the molten state and its presence in the blends prepared in solution.

    Notes: Following the ester-amide interchange reaction in the poly(ethylene terephthalate)/poly(amide-6, 6) (PET/PA) system in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid (TsOH), samples were injection molded and tested in the tensile mode. A brittle fracture was observed for these unoriented specimens. To separate the influence of the crystallinity from that of the interphases, the samples were studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The DSC results indicated an increase of crystallinity in the blends caused by enhanced nucleation of PA (which crystallizes first) and that of the copolymer resulting from the esteramide interchange reaction. It has been independently verified that neat PET samples of comparable crystallinity to that existing in the PET/PA blends show a similar behavior.
