    Notes: The energetics of Pb film grown at 300 K on two well-defined oxides [a MgO(100) thin film and a p(2×1)-oxide on Mo(100)] have been measured using single-crystal adsorption microcalorimetry. The evolution of the film morphology was followed using Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). An initial heat of adsorption of 103 kJ/mol is observed for the Pb/MgO(100) system. Auger results indicate that this is due to the formation of an ∼20 atom Pb island in the first pulse of Pb gas incident on the MgO(100) surface. This allows the extraction of a Pb–MgO(100) bond energy of ∼32±2 kJ/mol in the small two-dimensional particles formed in the first pulse. As more Pb is deposited onto the MgO(100) surface, the Pb forms three-dimensional islands. The integral of the heats of adsorption up to high coverage indicates an adhesion energy of 76.5±∼20 μJ/cm2 for large 3D Pb particles to the MgO(100) substrate. This indicates a Pb–MgO(100) bond energy of 49±13 kJ/mol at the 3D interface. Similar analyses of the Pb/p(2×1)-oxide on Mo(100) surface give an initial heat of adsorption of 146.2 kJ/mol and an adhesion energy of 82.5±20 μJ/cm2 for thick Pb films. This indicates a bond energy of 52±12 kJ/mol for a Pb atom to this surface at the interface of a thick Pb film. The metal's sticking probabilities as a function of coverage and the coverage-dependent changes in optical reflectivity were measured. For the Pb/MgO(100) system, an initial sticking probability of 0.70 at 300 K was observed, whereas for the Pb/p(2×1)-oxide on Mo(100) surface unit sticking probability was observed. The relationship between these quantities and the adsorption energetics is discussed. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Atmospheric [CO2] affects photosynthesis and therefore should affect the supply of carbon to roots. To evaluate interactions between carbon supply and nutrient acquisition, the [CO2] effects on root growth, proteoid root formation and phosphorus (P) uptake capacity were studied in white lupin (Lupinus albus L.) grown hydroponically at 200, 410 and 750 µmol mol−1 CO2, under sufficient (0·25 mm P) and deficient (0·69 µm P) phosphorus. Plant size increased with increasing [CO2] only at high P. Both P deficiency and increasing [CO2] increased the production of proteoid clusters; the increase in response to increased [CO2] was proportionally greater from low to ambient [CO2] than from ambient to high. The activity of phosphoenol pyruvate carboxylase in the proteoid root, the exudation of organic acids from the roots, and the specific uptake of P increased with P deficiency, but were unaffected by [CO2]. Increasing [CO2] from Pleistocene levels to those predicted for the next century increased plant size and allocation to proteoid roots, but did not change the specific P uptake capacity per unit root mass. Hence, rising [CO2] should promote nutrient uptake by allowing lupins to mine greater volumes of soil.

    Notes: Background IL-18 is a cytokine which is known to have an important role in the development of a Th1 lymphocyte response. As such, it may have a regulatory role in asthma by modifying Th2 lymphocyte responses. Cigarette smoking may amplify the airway inflammation associated with asthma.Objective This study investigated if IL-18 could be detected in induced sputum from asthmatics and normal subjects and if smoking altered IL-18 levels.Methods Induced sputum was obtained from asthmatic (31 smokers, 35 non-smokers) and normal (20 smokers, 20 non-smokers) subjects. All smokers had a smoking history of 〈inlineGraphic alt="geqslant R: gt-or-equal, slanted" extraInfo="nonStandardEntity" href="urn:x-wiley:09547894:CEA1973:ges" location="ges.gif"/〉15 pack years. IL-18 levels in sputum supernatant were measured by ELISA. IL-18 mRNA expression and cellular localization were assessed by quantitative PCR and immunocytochemistry, respectively.Results Smoking was associated with a significant reduction in IL-18 levels (median (interquartile range) – smokers 20 (0–102) pg/mL vs. non-smokers 358 (50–876) pg/mL, P〈0.001). This was more pronounced in asthmatics (smokers, 47 (40–64) pg/mL vs. non-smokers, 530 (30–1484) pg/mL; P〈0.001) than in normal subjects (smokers, 25 (0–78) pg/mL vs. non-smokers, 247 (50–656) pg/mL; P〈0.01). Within each of the smoking and non-smoking groups there was no significant difference in IL-18 levels between asthmatic and normal subjects. There was no correlation between sputum IL-18 levels and any specific cell type in the sputum samples nor serum IgE levels. IL-18 mRNA expression was reduced in asthmatic smokers compared with non-smokers. IL-18 production was localized to sputum macrophages by immunocytochemistry.Conclusions IL-18 is detectable in induced sputum samples from both asthmatic and normal subjects. Cigarette smoking significantly reduces sputum IL-18 levels. This effect is more pronounced in asthmatics than in normal subjects.

    Notes: A case of tinea nigra occurring in a Caucasoid girl aged 10 is described. The infection was probably contracted in Malaya where she had lived between the ages of 2 and 4½. The course of the infection was chronic and protracted, with a tendency to recur after apparent cure. The mycological features are described and the aetiology is discussed.
