    Notes: The temperature-dependent structure of crystalline methylammoniumtrihalogenoplumbates (II)—CH3NH+3PbX−3 (X=Cl, Br, I)—as determined by x-ray diffraction, is compared with measurements of the temperature-dependent complex permittivity at frequencies of 50–150 GHz. The dielectric measurements reveal a picosecond relaxation process which corresponds to a dynamic disorder of the methylammonium group in the high-temperature phases of the trihalogenoplumbates.

    Notes: Traces of N-nitrosodi-n-butylamine (NDBA) and N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA) can form in cured pork products packaged in elastic rubber nettings due to the interaction of nitrite in meat and amines in the rubber. Studies were carried out to determine whether taking nettings off immediately after processing or placing a layer of collagen as a barrier between nettings and meat could prevent or minimize formation of the above nitrosamines. None was effective. However, cured pork products packaged in a reformulated rubber netting, made with different amine additives, contained either none or only negligible levels of NDBA or NDEA, but, instead, contained 8–104 ppb levels of a new nitrosamine, N-nitrosodibenzylamine which is reported to be noncarcinogenic.

    Notes: Abstract Ethylene and ethane production in mung bean hypocotyl sections were evaluated as possible indicators of stress due to contact with four salts that are common in natural sites. Ethylene production decreased with increasing concentrations of applied NaCl and KCl. When CaCl2 was applied, the ethylene evolution was greater. However, when MgCl2 was applied, ethylene evolution remained high then decreased and at higher salt concentrations again showed an increase. NaCl (up to 0.1 kmol m−1) and KCl (up to 0.5 kmol m−3) caused a concentration-dependent increase in ethane production. The ethane production with CaCl2 was the lowest among the salts tested and only a minute increase was noticed with the increase of concentration from 0.01 to 1 kmol m−3. Ethane production showed a distinct maximum at 0.2 kmol m−3 MgCl2. The introduction of 0.01 kmol m−3 CaCl2, as well as anaerobic conditions obtained by purging vials with N2, eliminated that high ethane production. Respiratory activity of the mung bean hypocotyl sections in MgCl2 concentrations from 0 to 0.5 kmol m−3 was correlated with ethane but not with ethylene production. The ethane/ethylene ratio showed three patterns for the four salts tested.

    Notes: Abstract Histamine, among various “biologic-physiologic” abnormalities, is considered as a pathogenetic factor in chronic duodenal ulcer disease. The 10–30 per cent difference between its concentration in gastric and duodenal mucosa of patients compared to healthy controls, however, has to be demonstrated to be specific for the disease. It has to be shown to be neither a methodological artefact nor a common effect, concomitant factor or consequence. This study, after a series of pathogenetic trials examines systematic errors (biases) in the fluorometric-fluoroenzymatic histamine assay under the conditions of field studies including tests on specificity over a time period of 10 years. It concentrates on sensitivity (detection limits) and specificity of a standard technique described herein. A modified Shore procedure for large scale assays in human biopsies was developed including reference luminescence values for all reagents, cleaning material and glassware, reduction of OPD concentration to 0.05%, purification ofn-heptan, omission of centrifugation steps in the extraction procedure and use of 2 ml 1M HClO4 in the homogenization step to prevent losses of histamine due to adherence to the mechanical homogenizer. This assay was sensitive enough to measure histamine without difficulty in any biopsy taken. The detection limit was 3 ng/biopsy, but the smallest quantities of the amine ever obtained were 10.6 and 18.3 ng/biopsy (depending on both histamine content and biopsy weight). A series of problems had to be solved both in achieving and demonstrating specificity. It had to be defined not only for the assay in general, but also for assessing the difference in histamine content between ulcer patients and healthy controls. Exogenous more than endogenous fluorescing material interfering with the determination had to be excluded. A series of pitfalls were detected which had to be overcome in demonstrating the specificity of the assay by physicochemical and enzymatic tests. The specificity of the identification tests was more often impaired than the histmine assay itself. Fluorescing material interfering with the assay occurred in the homogenization, extraction and condensation steps, was found in water, OPD, the organic solvents, the cleaning material and in all kinds of plastic vessels. Plasticizers were shown by physicochemical characteristics including fluorescence spectra to be most likely responsible for this interfering material. Rules were developed to exclude such hazards in specificity in longterm pathobiochemical studies.

    Notes: Summary Medaka were maintained on a 16∶8 light-dark cycle and fed once daily on one of 5 different feeding schedules. The daily rhythm of agonistic behavior rapidly entrained to the scheduled feeding time and maintained this entrainment during a 3-day starvation period. In contrast the daily rhythms of egg laying and courtship stayed entrained to the L:D cycle regardless of the feeding schedule. Thus, temporal integration of this fish with its daily environment can involve multistimuli which concurrently and differentially entrain externally expressed circadian systems.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Several population-biological parameters of 96 dead and 12 living polecats from Switzerland and adjoining areas of France were studied. Adult specimens were aged by means of counts of tooth cementum annuli. The reproductive status of males was evaluated according to the weight of the testes. Mating occurs in the study area from February to at least August, and is most usual in spring. The sex-ratio of the whole sample was 1.76 males per female. For different reasons, this value is considered to be male-biased, compared to the living population. The proportion of males in Swiss polecat populations seems to be higher among young adults than among older ones. Age structure, mortality and life expectancy have been analyzed with the life-table method, which revealed the following results: During their first year of life, between 70 and 90% of the polecats die. From the second year onwards, this figure is about 40% for males, probably relatively independent of their actual age. In females, the second-year mortality is much higher than in males, but only about 20% for the following years. Ages of 6 and 7 years are not unusual in wild polecats from Switzerland. Based on the data on the population structure and age-specific mortalities it is concluded that polecat populations should increase rapidly after favorable summers, and react with a marked and long-lasting decline in bad winter conditions; bad summers and favourable winters, however, should only have minor effects on polecat numbers.
    Abstract: Résumé Différentes données sur la dynamique de population du Putois en Suisse et dans des régions limitrophes de la France ont été recueillies sur base de l'examen de 96 cadavres et de 12 individus capturés vivants. L'âge des adultes fut déterminé par l'analyse des cernes circanniens de cément au niveau de la racine des canines. L'état reproductif des mâles fut évalué sur base du poids des testicules. Les accouplements peuvent se produire entre les mois de février et d'août, mais se concentrent au printemps. L'échantillon révèle un sex-ratio global de 1,76 en faveur des mâles; pour différentes raisons, cette valeur dépasse problement la proportion des mâles dans la population vivante, le rapport des sexes étant plus équilibré chez les putois âgés que chez les adultes plus jeunes. L'aetilité, la mortalité et l'espérance de vie de putois suisses sont analysés à l'aide de leurs tables de survie et donnent les résultats suivants: la mortalité au cours de la première année est de 70 à 90%; à partir de la deuxième année, la mortalité annuelle des mâles est de 40% et ceci sans doute indépendamment de l'âge actuel des individus. La mortalité des femelles est nettement plus élevée au cours de la deuxième année de vie; ensuite, elle n'est plus que de moitié aussi élevée par rapport à celle des mâles adultes. En liberté, le putois suisse peut atteindre un âge de 7 ans au moins. L'examen de la structure de population et des taux de mortalité liés à l'âge laisse supposer que les populations de putois réagissent par une augmentation marquée de leurs effectifs à des conditions estivales favorables et par un déclin net suite à des conditions hivernales défavorables. Des étés médiocres et des hivers cléments n'auraient par contre qu'une influence réduite sur les effectifs de l'espèce. Trad.:S. A. de Crombrugghe
    Notes: Zusammenfassung An 96 Iltiskadavern und 12 lebend gefangenen Wildiltissen aus der Schweiz und angrenzenden Teilen Frankreichs wurden verschiedene populationsbiologische Daten erhoben. Die Altersbestimmung adulter Individuen erfolgte anhand der Annuli im Cementum der Caninus-Wurzeln. Physiologische Reproduktionsbereitschaft wurde bei Rüden anhand des Hodengewichtes bestimmt. Paarungen sind von Februar bis mindestens August möglich, finden aber hauptsächlich im Frühling statt. Das Geschlechterverhältnis betrug in der gesamten Stichprobe 1.76 zugunsten der Rüden. Dieser Wert dürfte aus verschiedenen Gründen über demjenigen der lebenden Population liegen, wobei bei alten Tieren ein ausgeglicheneres Geschlechterverhältnis zu erwarten ist als bei jüngeren adulten. Altersstruktur, Mortalität und Lebenserwartung schweizerischer Iltisse werden mit Hilfe der Lebenstafel analysiert, wobei sich die folgenden Aussagen ergeben: Im ersten Lebensjahr sterben zwischen 70 und 90% der Jungtiere. Ab dem zweiten Lebensjahr beträgt die jährliche Sterblichkeit der Rüden, vermutlich relativ unabhängig von ihrem aktuellen Alter, um 40%. Bei Fähen ist die Sterblichkeit im zweiten Lebensjahr deutlich höher, danach nur noch etwa halb so hoch wie diejenige adulter Rüden. Freilebende Iltisse können in der Schweiz ein Alter von mindestens 7 Jahren erreichen. Aufgrund der Populationsstruktur und der altersabhängigen Mortalitätsraten ist zu vermuten, daß Iltispopulationen auf günstige Sommerverhältnisse mit einer raschen und deutlichen Zunahme, auf ungünstige Winterverhältnisse mit deutlicher Bestandsabnahme reagieren; schlechte Sommer und gute Winter sollten dagegen nur geringe Auswirkungen auf die Abundanz der Art haben.

    Notes: Summary The effects of temperature on growth in broth and soil and on competition for nodule formation betweenRhizobium japonicum serotypes USDA 76 and 94 compared to 6 and 110 were studied. Increasing root temperatures of Lee soybean from 20 to 35°C increased the competitiveness of 76 and 94 relative to 6 and 110 for all inoculum ratios such that at 30 and 35°C symptoms ofRhizobium-induced chlorosis appeared. Tolerance to elevated temperatures was exhibited by 76 and 110, but not 94 and 6 in broth and soil which suggested that increased competitiveness of 76 and 94 at high soil temperatures was not dependent upon growth at elevated temperatures. Nodulation and vegetative growth of Lee soybeans were at a minimum at 20°C and optimum at 30°C. Differences in competitiveness of 6 to previous studies indicated the need to standardize temperatures of assays. Differences in growth responses of 76 and 94 to temperature from a previous study suggested a confounding effect on different carbon sources in growth media.
