    Notes: 1. A sediment trap study was conducted in the central basin of Lower Lough Erne, Northern Ireland.2. The material caught was low in organic matter, ash weight was 77% of dry weight on average.3. Mass deposition of material was shown to be correlated with lake water level. When lake water level fell or rose above the middle range, the amount of material caught by the trap increased markedly. The effect was exaggerated by an unusually dry summer in 1995 which caused abnormally low water levels in the lake.4. Comparison of Erne data with Windermere shows similar deposition rate of many substances, but the deposition rate of iron is thirteen times higher in Erne than in Windermere, and iron made up 39% of the ash weight in the Erne trap data.5. Only 17% of the silica removed from the water column during diatom growth was recovered in the trap over the same time period.6. Trap data are compared with historical data for sediment deposition and the implications of sediment focusing are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Styrene emulsion polymerization has been carried out at 70°C using 2–2′ Azobis (2 methyl, N-(2 hydroxyethyl) propionamide as initiator and thiol-ended surfactants (I) HS-C11 H22- (OCH2 CH2) n OH withn from 17 to 90 units. The kinetics of monomer conversion, the evolution of particle size, particle size distribution, molecular weight, and molecular weight distribution have been studied. After washing the final latex, the incorporation yield of the surfactant moieties in the particles has been measured. Most of the experiments have been carried out in batch; complementary experiments used semi batch or seeded process. In some experiments the two functions of transfer agent and surfactants have been decoupled using either dodecylmercaptan (oil soluble) or thioglycolic acid (water soluble) as transfer agent and the bromine ended precursor of (I) as surfactant. The discussion of the results is chiefly oriented towards both the molecular weight distribution and the incorporation of the surfactant to the latex.

    Characterization of particle size and size distribution of multi-sized polymer lattices by centrifugation plus quasielastic light scattering (1997)

    Notes: Abstract  A method for characterizing the particle size and size distribution of multi-sized polymer lattices was developed by combining quasielastic light scattering (QELS) with a centrifuge. Lattices were first fractionated by centrifugation and the different populations of particles were separated in successive steps. The size of these particles was measured by QELS, and the mass fraction of the particles was determined gravimetrically. The particle size and size distribution of several blends of monodisperse lattices and two industrial multi-sized lattices have been measured by this method. The results show that the particle sizes obtained using this method are in good agreement with the expected particle diameters, and that the relative amounts of the different groups of particles in the blends can be accurately determined. The efficiency of centrifuge-QELS was also confirmed by comparison with other techniques such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM), QELS, field-flow fractionation (FFF) and capillary hydrodynamic fractionation (CHDF). However, this method is not suited for the analysis of continuous, broad distributions or mixtures with a high number of different populations. It is better suited for distributions with a small number of families of particles, and then can be used for preparative propose on a laboratory scale.

    Notes: Abstract  Four monodisperse latices with particle size of 75, 135, 340 and 477 nm were synthesized. The rheo-logical properties of mixture of the monodisperse latices were inves-tigated as a function of blending ratio, and compared with those of multi-modal latices, in a range of shear rate from 0.2 to 100 s-1. The maximum packing (highest solid contents) was observed at a weight fraction 80% of large particles with respect to total solids contents for both bimodal and trimodal latices, and the lowest viscosity was obtained when the ratio of large to medium to small particles was approximately 80/10/10 (by wt.). It was also demonstrated that this minimum in the viscosity is not strongly dependent on the actual size of each kind of particles present in the multimodal latices.

    Contributions to defining the rate constants for the homo- and copolymerisation of butyl acrylate and vinyl acetate (1995)

    Notes: Summary Free radical homo- and copolymerisations of vinyl acetate and butyl acrylate were carried out in solution. Initial differences in data from homopolymerisation experiments lead us to investigate the influence of an eventual oxygen inhibition on the observed rate of polymerisation. A kinetic study at 70 °C was carried out both with and without a nitrogen purge. A decrease in the rate of polymerisation in the second instance was attributed to the presence of dissolved oxygen in the solution. Estimates of the apparent inhibition constant from different experiments are used to model both homopolymerisation and copolymerisation with vinyl acetate. The importance of taking this phenomenon into account during kinetic studies is demonstrated.

    Notes: Abstract We analyze isospectral sets of potentials associated with generalized periodic boundary conditionsB inSL (2, ℝ) for the 2 ×2AKNS systems on the unit interval. WhenB is a rotation we get the usual periodic case. WhenB is not a rotation isospectral sets are cylindrical real analytic submanifolds ofL ℝ 2 ([0, 1])2 ×SL(2, ℝ) and their sections for fixed boundary conditions are real analytic submanifolds ofL ℝ 2 ([0, 1])2.

    Notes: Abstract The volatiles used by the parasitoidDiadromus pulchellus to find its host, the leek moth, are produced by the bacteria developing in the frass of the host larvae. The origin and the nature of these bacteria were investigated. Samples were taken from healthy leeks and from infested leeks in the field, as well as from the frass of larvae reared in the laboratory either on the host plant or on an artificial diet. The various species of bacteria identified were cultured in the presence of precursors of leek sulphur volatiles and their volatile emissions were analysed.Klebsiella oxytoca and variousBacillus, common decomposers of plant matter, were the principal species producing active volatiles which were alkyl disulphides.

    Notes: Abstract The genus Malassezia has been revised using morphology, ultrastructure, physiology and molecular biology. As a result the genus has been enlarged to include seven species comprising the three former taxa M. furfur, M. pachydermatis and M. sympodialis, and four new taxa M. globosa, M. obtusa, M. restricta and M. slooffiae. The descriptions of all the species include morphology of the colonies and of the cells, together with ultrastructural details. The physiological properties studied were the poesence of catalase, the tolerance of 37°C and the ability to utilize certain concentrations of Tween 20, 40, 60 and 80 as a source of lipid in a simple medium. Information is given for each of the taxa on mole % GC and also the rRNA sequence from the comparison previously described for the genus.

    Notes: Abstract The aim of this study was to improve our knowledge about the taxonomy and phylogeny of the family Saprolegniaceae, a group of water molds including several pathogens of plants, fish and crustacea. ITS and LSU rDNA were sequenced for representatives of forty species corresponding to ten genera (Achlya, Aphanomyces, Brevilegnia, Dictyuchus, Leptolegenia, Plectospira, Pythiopsis, Saprolegnia, Thraustotheca). Phenetic and cladistic analyses were then carried out. The species Brevilegnia bispora does not appear to belong to the family Saprolegniaceae. Plectospira myrianda clusters with Aphanomyces spp. and they constitute an ancestral group. (Thraustotheca clavata is closely related to the eccentric species of the genus Achlya. The genus Achlya appears polyphyletic, corroborating more or less the three known subgroups, defined by their sexual spore type (eccentric, centric and subcentric). The achlyoid type of spore dehiscence, shared by Aphanomyces and Achlya genera, is shown to be an ancestral character. The saprolegnioid, dictyoid and thraustothecoid types of spore dehiscence are derived characters but their relative evolutionary positions are not resolved.

    Notes: Two methods of analysis, potentiometry and capillary electrophoresis, were used to study the decomposition of potassium persulfate (KPS) in aqueous solutions. The experiments were carried out in a glass reactor equipped with continuous control of temperature and pH during the reaction. The effect of the pH on the decomposition of KPS was investigated. The rate of KPS decomposition in the presence of a variety of additives (surfactants, inhibitor, monomer-like molecules, and monomers), which are used in emulsion polymerization recipes, was also studied over the temperature range of interest. The rate of disappearance of the persulfate ion was greatly increased in the presence of hydroquinone, but changed very little in the presence of surfactants. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
