    Notes: Summary Haemoglobin A1c concentrations were measured in 102 insulin-treated diabetic outpatients. Only 19% had Hb A1c levels below three standard deviations above the normal mean value (5.23±0.05%). There were no correlations between Hb A1c levels, random C-peptide immunoreactivity or age. A significant correlation (r = 0.49; p〈 0.001) was, however, observed between HbA1c and random plasma glucose levels. The mean random plasma glucose value was normal (89±18 mg/ 100 ml; 5±1 mmol/l) in the patients on insulin three times a day who had received short acting insulin 160 ±6 min before the sampling. — A significant inverse correlation was found (r = -0.26; p〈0.01) between the number of daily insulin injections and the HbA1c concentration. — These results suggest that the use of multiple daily insulin injections improves diabetic control. It should however be emphasised that the patients receiving multiple insulin injections were younger than those on the single injection regime and had lower plasma insulin antibody titres, different social and psychological status and a shorter duration of the disease.

    Notes: Abstract Radiotracer experiments were performed (February–April, 1982) to study the assimilation and metabolism of the transuranium nuclide americium-241 in the marine teleosts Serranus scriba (Linnaeus, 1758) and Scorpaena notata Rafinesque, 1810, caught off the Monaco coast. Fish fed with 241Am-labelled food showed that assimilation of this radionuclide takes place through the gastrointestinal walls and that the small fraction accumulated is incorporated mainly in the skin, muscle and skeleton. Gut-transfer coefficients were similar in both species and averaged 0.7% (range 0.1 to 1.7%) of the ingested activity. The calculated biological half-lives for loss of the absorbed fraction ranged between 49 and 61 d for Serranus scriba and 12 and 117 d for Scorpaena notata. Results from an intramuscular injection experiment indicated that 241Am was retained mainly in the liver, skin and skeleton; the fraction accumulated by muscle was very low. Liver displayed a relatively short biological half-time for 241Am loss of roughly 24 d. Routes of 241Am excretion from the teleosts appear to be through the kidneys, gills and feces with bile serving as a possible excretion route from the liver. From the limited amount of published information available for comparison, experimental evidence is presented which suggests that 241Am taken up via the food chain is more biologically available to marine fish than is plutonium.

    Notes: Abstract Experiments were designed to assess the effect of different techniques of radiotracer labelling on subsequent radioisotope excretion rates in marine crustaceans. A small amphipod (Gammarus locusta) that accumulated 65Zn under a close approximation of natural conditions excreted the radiotracer during a 3-month period at a markedly different rate than those of comparable amphipods labelled with 65Zn in the laboratory via different combinations of radioactive food and seawater. Shrimp (Lysmata seticauda) administered 65Zn by three different methods in the laboratory displayed different excretion kinetics during the first 2 months of loss. The difference between excretion rates most likely was a reflection of the degree to which the various zinc pools within the shrimp had equilibrated with the radiotracer. During the next several months all 65Zn loss rates were quite similar, probably indicating that radiotracer excretion was taking place from similar zinc pools within the shrimp. The importance of adequate radiotracer labelling techniques as well as proper design of subsequent excretion experiments, used to gain reliable information on flux rates of the corresponding stable metal, is discussed. It is concluded that laboratory radiotracer experiments which are intended to supply information on actual situations in the sea require careful design and execution.

    Notes: Abstract Radiotracer experiments were designed to study the effect of certain factors on the accumulation and loss of methyl and inorganic mercury in mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) and benthic shrimp (Lysmata seticaudata). Methyl mercury was accumulated from both food and water to a greater degree than inorganic mercury by both species. There was a tendency for small mussels to concentrate more mercury than larger individuals, but the reason for this difference remains unclear. A trend towards greater mercury accumulation at higher temperatures was noted for mussels, but the temperature effect was relatively small over a 10 Co range between 8° and 19°C. Methyl mercury residues were eliminated by both species more slowly than those of the inorganic form. Loss from mussels was somewhat more rapid at higher temperatures; however, as in the case of accumulation, the effect of temperature was relatively small. Loss rates for small mussels were not significantly different from those for large individuals. Enhanced methyl mercury elimination was noted for the group of mussels maintained in their natural environment. The more rapid metal turnover in these individuals compared with mussels held in the laboratory was attributed to differences in the availability of natural particulate food matter and, hence, subsequent growth of the animals in the two experimental systems. The observed differences underscore the need for caution in predicting in situ flux of metals such as mercury in certain species based solely on data derived from laboratory experiments.

    Notes: Abstract Copper pair centers, which could be of interest for obtaining quantitative information about exchange interactions in superconductors based on cuprate perovskites, are observed in crystals with the perovskite structure by the ESR method. Such centers are investigated in KTaO3:Cu and K1−x LixTaO3:Cu crystals. A model consisting of a chain of two equivalent Cu2+ ions and three oxygen vacancies, extending along the 〈 100〉 axis, is proposed for the centers. The exchange interaction in the pairs is ferromagnetic.

    Notes: This work reports on the experimental determination (and correlation) of water activity (aw) in cheese whey solutions of varying total solids content (up to about 50% solids). It was shown that a satisfactory linear correlation between aw and solids (given as g of solids/100g of water) of whey existed. The aw of whey solutions was close to but always below that of lactose, which indicated that other nonlactose constituents also contributed to aw lowering.

    Notes: Concentrated sweet whey (about 100g solids/100g water), produced in the dairy industry as a preliminary step to spray drying, was stabilized against microbial spoilage by a combination of a slight reduction of water activity (aw), lowered pH, and addition of potassium sorbate, thus avoiding the drying operation. The whey so obtained could be stored for up to 3 months at 30°C without bacterial or mold deterioration.

    Notes: Concentrated whey (about 50% solids) was stabilized against microbial deterioration by a combination of a slight reduction of water activity (aw) (0.94 or 0.92), lowered pH (5.2 or 5.4) and addition of 0.2% potassium sorbate. Color changes and available lysine loss in the above shelf stable whey, stored at different temperatures, were studied. A zero order reaction kinetics was observed for color changes during browning of the concentrated whey; activation energy was found to be 26 Kcal/mole. The loss of available lysine amounted to 20–30% of the initial value after three months of storage at 30°C.
