    Notes: We report here the molecular isolation of a DNA fragment which encodes Tag-like activity from the Gram-negative bacterium Serratia marcescens. A recombinant plasmid encoding Tag-like activity was isolated from a S. marcescens plasmid gene library by complementation of an Escherichia coli tag mutant, which is deficient in 3-methyladenine DNA glycosylase I. The clone complements E. coli tag, recA, alkA, but not alkB, mutants for resistance to the DNA-damaging agent methyl methanesulphonate (MMS). The coding region of the Tag activity, initially isolated on a 6.5kb BamHI fragment, was defined to a 1.8kb BglII-Smal fragment. Labelling of plasmid-encoded proteins using maxicells revealed that the 1.8kb fragment encodes two proteins of molecular weights 42000 and 16000. Data presented here suggest that the cloned fragment encodes a DNA repair protein(s) that has similar activity to the 3-methyladenine DNA glycosylase I of E. coli.

    Notes: Abstract Optical fiber waveguides embedded within materials have been applied to the measurement of chemical changes, strain, and temperature inside materials. This paper reviews some of the research that has been performed in this area over the past 10 years and cites the theoretical and demonstrated performance of such sensors for material evaluation during its manufacturing, in service lifetime and degradation periods.

    Notes: Summary The use of parameter estimation techniques for partial differential equations is illustrated using a predatorprey model. Whereas ecologists have often estimated parameters in models, they have not previously been able to do so for models that describe interactions in heterogeneous environments. The techniques we describe for partial differential equations will be generally useful for models of interacting species in spatially complex environments and for models that include the movement of organisms. We demonstrate our methods using field data from a ladybird beetle (Coccinella septempunctata) and aphid (Uroleucon nigrotuberculatum) interaction. Our parameter estimation algorithms can be employed to identify models that explain better than 80% of the observed variance in aphid and ladybird densities. Such parameter estimation techniques can bridge the gap between detail-rich experimental studies and abstract mathematical models. By relating the particular bestfit models identified from our experimental data to other information on Coccinella behavior, we conclude that a term describing local taxis of ladybirds towards prey (aphids in this case) is needed in the model.

    Notes: Abstract High-accuracy analyzing-powerA y(θ) data forn-d elastic scattering at 12 MeV have been measured using the polarized-neutron facilities at the Triangle Universities Nuclear Laboratory (TUNL). The present data have been combined with our previousn-d measurements at 10, 12, and 14.1 MeV to form the highest-accuracyA y(θ) data set forn-d elastic scattering below 20 MeV. These data are compared to recent Faddeev-based neutron-deuteron (n-d) calculations which use the Paris and Bonn equivalent separable potentials PEST and BEST, as well as Doleschall's representation of theP- andD-wave nucleon-nucleon interactions. None of these models adequately describe the data in the angular region around the maximum ofA y(θ). Possible reasons for the discrepancies are discussed. The sensitivity of the present Faddeev-based calculations to various angular momentum components of the nucleon-nucleon interaction are examined.

    Notes: Abstract The use of an extended Kalman filter for state estimation in biological wastewater treatment processes is discussed. The application of the technique requires an adequate mechanistic dynamic model and the identification and modelling of the major sources of stochastic disturbances in the process. The filter allows the on-line tracking of process variables which are not directly measurable. The use of an extended Kalman filter is illustrated through a simulated application to a high rate anaerobic wastewater treatment process.

    Notes: In order to study the influence of residual stresses on dimensional accuracy and mechanical properties of denture bases, an experimental model was devised for measurement of residual stresses in acrylic denture base polymers. Rectangular bar coupons were cut from resin plates heat processed by conventional dental methods. They included samples which had been slow and fast cooled after polymerization and had been stored in dry and wet environments. Uniaxial residual stress distributions for each coupon were disclosed by removing layers of known thicknesses and measuring the ensuing deflection of the specimens. Coupons of a commercial acrylic resin were annealed and used as controls. ANOVA and Scheffe's test were used to compare experimental conditions at the 95% confidence level. Dry specimens exhibited residual surface compressive stresses from 0.43-0.83 MPa (62-120 psi). Water-stored specimens showed higher stress levels, 2.86-3.24 MPa (414-470 psi). Slow cooled pigmented acrylic coupons which were dry showed higher residual stresses compared with other dry but nonpigmented specimens. No significant differences were found between pigmented or clear coupons which contained moisture.
