    Notes: Summary Single neurons in the auditory cortex of anesthetized cats were examined quantitatively for their sensitivity to the sound pressure level of characteristic frequency (CF) tone pulses, and to 6 dB, linear modulations in the amplitude of a continuous CF carrier tone. The direction and rate of amplitude modulation (AM), and the carrier level on which it was imposed, were manipulated parametrically. Studied with amplitude modulations, the majority of neurons responded only to intensity increments. The minimum carrier level upon which an amplitude modulation was able to evoke spike discharges was typically comparable to the tone pulse threshold SPL. For many neurons, an “intensity increment response area”, i.e., the domain of AM rate and carrier level conjunctions within which a 6 dB AM was able to evoke discharges, could be delimited. For many neurons, preferred rate of AM drifted from high to low with increases in the carrier level on which the modulation was imposed. The most vigorous responses to AM stimuli often occurred when the carrier levels were associated with the rising slope or the peak of the tone pulse rate intensity function. It may be possible to understand the general form of AM response areas in terms of short-term adaptation, the disposition of excitatory and inhibitory tone pulse response areas, and the spectra of the AM stimuli used.

    Notes: Summary In the primary auditory cortex of cats anaesthetized with nitrous oxide, single neurones were examined with respect to their responses to tone bursts and linear modulations of the frequency of an on-going continuous tone. Using FM ramps of 2.0 kHz excursion and varying centre frequency, each of 39 neurones was examined for its preference for the direction of frequency change of a ramp whose centre frequency was varied in and around the neurone's response area. Direction preference was strictly associated with the slopes of the cell's spike count-versus-frequency function over the frequency range covered by the ramp. Preferences for upward- and downward-directed ramps were associated with the low- and high-frequency slopes of the spike count function, respectively. The strength of the cell's direction preference was associated with the relative steepness of the spike count function over the frequency range covered by the ramp. The timing of discharges elicited by the frequency modulations was found to be the sum of the cell's latent period for tone bursts plus the time after ramp onset that the stimulus frequency fell within the neurone's response area. The implications of these data for the processing of narrow and broad frequency-modulated ramps are discussed.

    Notes: Measurements are reported on the acoustic attenuation and velocity of dry and wet samples of poly(methyl methacrylate) over a temperature range of 5° to 70°C and over a frequency range of 5 to 35 MHz. Lowering of the glass transition temperature with increase in water content was reflected in an increase in the acoustic attenuation and a lowering of the velocity at high temperature. Comparison of the infrared spectra of wet and dry thin films indicates that water exhibits spectroscopic characteristics of isolated rather than highly clustered molecules. A study of the temperature dependence of the diffusion coefficient of water into the polymer matrix provided an activation energy for the migration process. The data suggest that water plasticizes poly(methyl methacrylate) via specific local interactions with the backbone.

    Notes: A commercial formulation of thermal antioxidant has been shown to photosensitize the dehydrochlorination of poly(vinyl chloride). The species responsible was shown to be a p-alkyl-substituted phenol, and this was confirmed using p-cresol as a model compound.

    Notes: Ultrasonic attenuation and velocity measurements are reported for samples of polycarbonate, polyether sulfone, and polysulfone over a temperature range from 10° to 80°C and over a frequency range from 5 to 35 MHz. Observed relaxations are ascribed to short-range motions of the polymer backbone - here designated the α process. The amplitude of the absorption initially decreased with increasing draw ratio, but after two years returned to the values characteristic of undrawn samples. The longitudinal wave velocity increased with draw ratio in a manner consistent with the creation of molecular order and remained constant over two years. Differences in the attenuation properties between the three polymers studies are discussed in terms of the chemical structure and the macroscopic morphology of the samples.

    Description / Table of Contents: Bei der elektro- oder fotochemisch initiierten Polymerisation von N,N′-(4,4′-sulfonyldiphenylen)dimaleinsäureimid (4) in Gegenwart von Zinkdibromid und Toluol nehmen die Umsätze linear mit der Bestrahlungs- oder Stromeinwirkungszeit zu. Der Reaktionsmechanismus scheint in einer 2π+2π-Cycloaddition zu bestehen, welcher zu einer Elektro- oder Photo-Kondensation von 4 führt.
    Notes: A study has been made of the electro- and photo-initiated polymerization of N,N′-(4,4′-sulfonyldiphenylene)dimaleimide (4) in the presence of zinc dibromide and toluene. Product yields were linearly dependent on the photo irradiation or current passage times. The reaction mechanism appears to be a 2π+2π cycloaddition resulting in the electro or photo condensation of 4.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die elektroinitiierte Polymerisation von N-Vinylcarbazol (VCZ) wurde in Aceton bei 25°C mit Zinkbromid als Katalysator unter Verwendung von Platinelektroden eingehend untersucht. Die Polymerisationsgeschwindigkeit erwies sich als direkt abhängig von der Stromstärke, der Zinkbromid-Konzentration und dem anfänglichen Wassergehalt des Solvens.Die Molekulargewichte der entstandenen Polymeren (1000-6000) sind unabhängig von der Stromstärke, der Zinkbromid-Konzentration und dem Umsetzungsgrad des Monomeren zum Polymeren, werden jedoch beeinflußt durch Wasser, die Monomerkonzentration und das Elektrodenmaterial. Die chemische Zusammensetzung der Polymeren ändert sich nicht mit der Stromstärke, der Zinkbromid-Konzentration, dem Umsetzungsgrad und dem Elektrodenmaterial. Sie ändert sich jedoch ein wenig mit dem Wassergehalt des Acetons.
    Notes: The electroinitiated polymerization of N-vinylcarbazole (VCZ) in acetone solvent at 25°C with zinc bromide, as catalyst, and platinum electrodes was investigated in detail. The polymerization rate was found to be directly dependent on current strength, zinc bromide concentration and the initial water content of the solvent.The molecular weights of the formed polymers (1000-6000) are independent of current strength, zinc bromide concentration and degree of conversion of monomer to polymer, but are affected by water, monomer concentration, and by the type of electrodes used. The chemical composition of the polymer is invariant with current strength, zinc bromide concentration, degree of conversion, and electrode material but does vary slightly with the water content of acetone.

    Notes: Candida utilis was grown in batch culture with and without oxygen control. The concentrations of A-, B-, and C-type cytochromes were found to vary with the initial glucose concentration, with the dissolved oxygen concentration, and with time. A-type was the most sensitive. After glucose was essentially exhausted, the yeast catabolized ethanol, if it had been growing in a relatively low initial glucose concentration, or non-glucose carbohydrate, including some of that previously accumulated within the cell, if it had been growing in a high initial glucose concentration. This difference in metabolic pattern could explain why cytochrome derepression was initiated soon after glucose uptake ceased only if initial glucose had been relatively low. The effects of glucose and dissolved oxygen concentrations on yeast cytochromes and respiratory activity are discussed.

    Notes: The biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) of a complex, partially colloidal substrate is divided into oxidation (fo) and synthesis (fs) fractions. The substrate being investigated is a suspension containing 10 mg./l. of dry skim milk. The oxidized and synthesized fractions of the BOD are shown to be 38.4% and 61.6%, respectively. The division of BOD is related to the time at which maximum cell growth appears. The time required to obtain maximum cell production is shown to be at least 10 hr. The relationship between the time to maximum cell production and the apparent initial activity of the seed organisms is discussed.
