    Notes: Abstract Two flagellates of the family trypanosomatidae were isolated from the fruits of Lycopersicon esculentum (tomato) and Annona cherimolia (cherimoya) in the southeastern region of Spain. The isolates were characterized by isoenzyme analysis using nine different isoenzymes and by analysis of kinetoplast DNA (kDNA) restriction fragment length polymorphism using four different restriction endonucleases. Most of the isoenzymes were unable to distinguish between the two fruit isolates, while they were all able to distinguish these two from four other Phytomonas isolates, three of which were from laticiferous plants i.e. Euphorbia characias E. hirta and E. hyssopifolia, and one was a phloem-restricted isolate associated with Hartrot disease. Only the enzyme Superoxide dismutase was able to differentiate between the two fruit isolates. Electrophoretic and restriction endonuclease analysis of kDNA minicircles, using four restriction enzymes, showed similar if not identical restriction cleavage patterns of the minicircles of the two isolates from fruits, while the patterns were different for the other isolates. These results confirm the hypothesis that the two isolates from fruits constitute a group of trypanosomatids that are the same or closely related and that this group can parasitize more than one host plant.

    Notes: Abstract A rapid screening procedure was developed for detection of Escherichia coli mutants with altered adhesion abilities using polystyrene 96-well microtiter plates as attachment surfaces. During this assay, bacterial strains grew and adhered simultaneously, and attached cells were measured after crystal violet staining. Starting with a total of 7000 W3110::Tn10 insertion mutants of E. coli K-12 W3110, 50 adhesion-deficient mutants were isolated which showed less than 40% attachment, and 22 mutants were found with an attachment of 40–75%. Motility assays were performed on these 72 mutants, and 34 displayed altered motility.

    Notes: A simple model that represents the microstructure of magnetic medium as a rectangular tesselation predicts that the mean-square jitter is inversely proportional to the track width. We test this prediction using different width heads as well as creating different track widths by partially erasing the original track. We also simulate these experiments using a micromagnetic model. Our experimental and simulation results are found to be in agreement with the prediction. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract The following communication is a case history of an 11 year-old female patient suffering from Papillon-Lefére syndrome. Since a massive occurence of A actinomycetemcomilans had been found in the subgingival microflora of the periodomal pockets, the patient was treated with repeated subgingival scaling, with an adjunct Amoxicillin and Metronidazol treatment. A bacteriological examination of the girl's family proved that several brothers and sisters as well as one parent also carried A. actinomycetemcomitans. showing 3 different strains of this bacterium within the family. An immunohistological examination of the gingival tissue showed a massive inflammatory infiltrate which was dominated by plasma cells. The histological investigation of the first molars did not show morphological abnormalities of the root cementum. Posttreatment clinical and radiographical improvement of the periodontal conditions is reported despite the recurrent finding of A. actinomycetemcomitans.

    Notes: Abstract We provide an overview of the present understanding of the transition from hadrons to a quark-gluon plasma, its signatures, and the experimental results so far. We discuss results of numerical simulations of the lattice gauge theory and critically evaluate the various observables that have been proposed as signatures of the QCD phase transition. We place the existing data from relativistic heavy-ion experiments at the Brookhaven Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS) and CERN Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) into perspective and provide an overview of the techniques and strategies that will be employed in the search for the quark-gluon plasma at heavy-ion colliders, such as the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC) and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

    Notes: The origin of the electronic free charge carriers accumulation/depletion in the porous silicon skeleton contacted with an electrolyte is determined by investigating the limiting step in the conduction process. Experimental evidences, supported by quantitative considerations, show that the porous silicon can be conductive if the free charge carriers flux supplied by the substrate is not the rate determining step of the electrical current conduction. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract: Rats were fed a control or vitamin E (all-rac-α-tocopheryl acetate)-deficient diet for 3 or 12 weeks. Serotonin (5-HT), 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), tryptophan, and α-tocopherol concentrations were determined in the frontal cortex using HPLC. α-Tocopherol concentrations fell significantly to 27% of control values at 12 weeks. Tissue 5-HT, 5-HIAA, and tryptophan concentrations were not significantly altered by the vitamin E-deficient diet at either time point. In vivo microdialysis revealed normal basal and K+-stimulated concentrations of 5-HT and 5-HIAA, but extracellular concentrations of tryptophan were significantly decreased after 3 weeks on the vitamin E-deficient diet, which resulted in an increase in the tissue/extracellular ratio and suggested a change in compartmentation. However, after 12 weeks on the deficient diet these values had returned to normal. Results in general indicate that a prolonged and substantial depletion of brain vitamin E can occur without major disturbance of serotonergic function.

    Notes: In each body ganglion of the leech Hirudo medicinalis there is a single S-cell. After an S-cell axon is severed, it regenerates along its surviving distal segment and reconnects with its synaptic target, the axon of the neighbouring S-cell. In approximately half the cases the regenerating axon forms a temporary electrical synapse specifically with the distal segment, which remains active and connected to the target, thereby functioning as a splice until regeneration is complete. To determine whether the distal axon segment is required for successful regeneration, distal segments of severed S-cell axons were ablated by intracellular injection of bacterial protease. Fifty-seven preparations were examined from 2 to 212 days after injection of the axon segment. The extent of S-cell axon regeneration was assessed electrophysiologically by intracellular and extracellular recording, and anatomically by intracellular injection of markers followed by light microscopy and electron microscopy. The S-cell axons regenerated successfully in almost 90% of animals examined after 2 weeks or more. In a further four animals the target S-cell was ablated in addition to the distal axon segment, permanently disrupting conduction along the S-cell pathway. Nevertheless, the regenerating axon grew along its usual pathway and there was no evidence that alternative connections were formed. It is concluded that, although the distal axon segment can provide a means for rapid functional repair, the segment is not required for reliable regeneration of the axon along its usual pathway and accurate formation of an electrical synapse.

    Notes: The annual time-series analysis examines the impact of changes in per capita alcohol consumption (NIAAA, AIDS) an changes in community hospital admission rates (AHA) in the United States from 1950 to 1992 (n = 43). Increases in per capita alcohol consumption were expected to increase hospital admission rates contemporaneously and several years thereafter following an exponential risk function. Distributed lag models based on differenced data controlling for changes in: (I) per capita cigarette consumption; (2) private hospital insurance coverage; (3) the drinking age population; (4) per capita disposable personal income; and (5) health care regulatory interventions show a contemporaneous effect of per capita alcohol consumption on hospital admission rates. The time-series analyses imply that between 22–26% of US community hospital admissions are alcohol related. A comparable analysis indicates that per capita alcohol and tobacco expenditures contribute to approximately 28% of US community hospital admissions. The absence of statistically significant lagged effects is inconsistent with an exponentially declining risk function. However, the contemporaneous effects of per capita alcohol and tobacco consumption suggest that a reduction in smoking and drinking will produce quick reductions in morbidity and hospitalizations.
