    Notes: Summary Mild diabetes (blood glucose ranging from 130 to 200 mg/100 ml) was induced in female rats by streptozotocin administration prior to mating. Fetuses obtained from these diabetic mothers on 20.5, 19.5 and 18.5 days of gestation were compared with corresponding fetuses from control mothers. Macrosomia was defined as a fetus whose body weight exceeded the mean + 2.5 SD of fetal weight obtained from the control fetal population. Similarly, the rate of substrate influx was considered abnormally high when an individual value (cpm/g tissue of radioactive tracer) exceeded mean + 2.5 SD of control value. The frequencies of macrosomia in control groups and in diabetic groups were 1/98 and 15/110 respectively, on 20.5 day of gestation, 1/155 and 14/ 148 on 19.5 day, and 0/99 and 0/98 on 18.5 day. The rates of influx of thymidine, leucine, and alphaaminoisobutyric acid from maternal side to the macrosomic fetuses were increased as much as 20 times the corresponding rates in control fetuses. Despite the lack of macrosomia as defined here in the fetal population on 18.5 day of gestation, a significantly larger proportion of litters from diabetic mothers (5 litters/5 litters) contained one or more fetuses showing abnormally high rate of thymidine influx than the litters from control mothers (0 litter/5 litters). These results suggest that only a selected few fetuses in a litter from a diabetic mother become macrosomic and a marked stimulation in the rate of metabolite influx into fetuses precedes the manifestation of macrosomia.

    Notes: Abstract. Background: Spiral computed tomography (CT) allows the pancreas to be imaged during peak contrast levels owing to the capability of fast data acquisition. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relative value of the arterial and late phases of spiral CT for detecting pancreatic adenocarcinomas. Methods: Twenty-two patients with pathologically proved pancreatic adenocarcinomas underwent two-phase spiral CT. The CT scans were performed with 5 mm collimation and 5 mm/s table speed. Images during the arterial and late phases were obtained at 30- and 180-second delays, respectively. The images of the arterial phase were compared with those of the late phase in terms of tumor conspicuity from surrounding pancreatic parenchyma and tumor detectability by means of a 3-point grading system: 1 (poor), 2 (fair), and 3 (good). Results: In terms of tumor conspicuity from surrounding pancreatic parenchyma, 16 lesions (73%) were good, 5 lesions (23%) were fair, and 1 lesion (4%) was poor during the arterial phase, whereas 6 lesions (27%) were good, 9 lesions (41%) were fair, and 7 lesions (32%) were poor during the late phase (p= 0.0007). The arterial phase was superior to the late phase in 16 patients (73%) and equal in 6 patients (27%). For tumor detectability, 18 lesions (82%) were good, 3 lesions (14%) were fair, and 1 lesion (4%) was poor during the arterial phase, whereas 10 lesions (45%) were good, 7 lesions (32%) were fair, and 5 lesions (23%) were poor during the late phase (p= 0.0033). For detectability, the arterial phase was superior to the late phase in 14 patients (64%) and equal in 8 patients (36%). Conclusion: The arterial phase of spiral CT is superior to the late phase, which is equivalent to conventional CT for detecting pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

    Notes: Abstract Natural food items of five species of marine cladocerans, Evadne nordmanni, E. tergestina, Penilia avirostris, Podon leuckarti and P. polyphemoides, were investigated in the Inland Sea of Japan between April 1986 and May 1987. Gut content examination with SEM (scanning electron microscopy) revealed that feeding was largely limited to centric diatoms and a few exceptions of pennate diatoms and dinoflagellates. No animal remains were detected, and some unidentified materials were also found. Phytoplankton smaller than 35 μm in size (cell diameter in centric diatoms and longest dimension in others) was found most frequently in the gut of cladocerans. The role of grazing of marine cladocerans in trophodynamic pathways of the pelagic realm is discussed.

    Notes: Intrinsic kinetics of an immobilized enzyme can be different from that of soluble enzyme due to changes of the macromolecule caused by immobilization. Also transport of substrate to enzymic sites on the inert support creates a hindrance to overall reaction. Such diffusional effects on immobilized enzyme reactions were analyzed in terms of effectiveness factor and film factor employing the theories developed earlier in heterogeneous catalysis. The pore diffusion effect in the design of an integral reactor was analytically treated. A brief discussion was given to the diffusional effects in relation to common kinetic studies of immobilized enzymes.

    Notes: Metalorganic chemical vapor deposition of Al2O3 using Al(O-C3H7)3 and N2O via pyrolysis was investigated with the goal of producing Al2O3 epitaxial films on p-Si (100) substrates. Room-temperature capacitance-voltage measurements clearly showed metal-insulator-semiconductor behaviors for the samples with the Al2O3 insulator gate, and the interface state densities at the Al2O3/p-Si interface were approximately 1011 eV−1 cm−2 at the middle of the Si energy gap. Auger depth profiles demonstrated that the Al2O3/Si interface was not abrupt, and transmission electron microscopy verified the formation of an interfacial layer in the Al2O3/Si interface and the formation of a polycrystalline Al2O3 thin film. These results indicated that the failure to form Al2O3 epitaxial films was due to the formation of an interfacial layer prior to the growth of the Al2O3 layer.

    Notes: Ferroelectric BaTiO3 thin films were grown on Si(100) substrates at a temperature of 600 °C by in situ metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy results suggested that the 〈110〉 direction of the BaTiO3 preferred oriented films is parallel with the (100) direction of the Si substrates. Auger electron spectroscopy measurements showed that the compositions of the as-grown films were with a uniform distribution throughout the thickness of the films and with a sharp interface. These results indicate that the failure to obtain BaTiO3 epitaxial films was due to the formation of an interfacial amorphous layer prior to the creation of the films.

    Notes: We performed simultaneous measurements of all the layer thicknesses in six layer silicon on oxide film structures. Visible-near-infrared spectrophotometry was combined with beam profile reflectometry to produce enough information to discriminate between potential solutions; the spectrometer or beam profile reflectometer alone is insufficient to solve such a complicated film stack. Development of a robust measurement recipe required a new global optimization method working in parameter spaces of up to 12 parameters. The recipe obtained was applied to a 50 site mapping of the wafer. We found excellent agreement between our optical measurement results and scanning electron micrograph data for all thicknesses. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.
