Notes: Abstract: The presence of Chol-1, an antigen identified in the plasma membrane of cholinergic electromotor nerve terminals of Torpedo marmorata, was investigated in Torpedo electric organ after 3, 6, and 9 weeks’denervation. Denervation was monitored by the cessation of stimulus-evoked discharge potentials, by the reduction in nerve terminals seen morphologically, and by the decrease in ACh and ChAT contents. The content of ganglioside-bound sialic acid did not show any appreciable change with time. Some modification of ganglioside pattern on TLC was observed after 9 weeks’denervation. The presence of Chol-1 after denervation was assayed by its activity in inhibiting the selective complement-induced lysis of the cholinergic subpopulation of guinea pig cortical synaptosome which is mediated by the anti-Chol-1 antiserum. Denervation did not affect Chol-1 immunoreactivity although it did alter the distribution of the immunoreactivity among gangliosides. The possible significance of the results is discussed.

Notes: Abstract: The use of storage cells has become a standard technique for internal gas targets in conjunction with high energy storage rings. In case of spin-polarized hydrogen and deuterium gas targets the interaction of the injected atoms with the walls of the storage cell can lead to depolarization and recombination. Thus the number of wall collisions of the atoms in the target gas is important for modeling the processes of spin relaxation and recombination. It is shown in this article that the diffusion process of rarefied gases in long tubes or storage cells can be described with the help of the one-dimensional diffusion equation. Mathematical methods are presented that allow one to calculate collision age distributions (CAD) and their moments analytically. These methods provide a better understanding of the different aspects of diffusion than Monte Carlo calculations. Additionally it is shown that measurements of the atomic density or polarization of a gas sample taken from the center of the tube allow one to determine the possible range of the corresponding density weighted average values along the tube. The calculations are applied to the storage cell geometry of the HERMES internal polarized hydrogen and deuterium gas target.
