    Notes: Summary The bone resorptive factor and amphipathic antigen (AcA) previously identified by us in preparations fromActinomyces viscosus have been partially purified, characterized chemically, and compared. They elute at the same location on chromatography with Ac 22. The fatty acid composition of AcA and the bone resorptive factor is the same. Some differences in carbohydrate composition are observed. TheActinomyces factor does not affect calcium influx or cyclic AMP in isolated bone cells. Therefore it is concluded that AcA stimulates resorption either by gaining entrance into bone cells or by way of a yet undetermined second messenger.

    Notes: We have applied a technique of interactive continuous selection (ICS) to the isolation of streptomycin-resistant mutants of the streptomycin-producing organism, Streptomyces griseus. A series of mutants, each with a different colonial morphology and expressing successively greater resistance to streptomycin, was isolated during the course of selection. Takeover of the mutants has been correlated with changes in on-line estimates of streptomycin concentration such that these estimates may be used as a real-time measure of the genetic state of the cell population. When grown in the medium employed for ICS, mutants expressed increased antibiotic production titers; the best mutant produced 10 to 20 times more streptomycin than the parent strain. Absolute improvements in the maximum specific growth rate and intrinsic resistance to streptomycin did not account for the observed growth advantage of all mutants. Rather, each mutant exhibited relative increases in specific growth rate at increasing concentrations of streptomycin. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Severn Sound is a heavily used recreational and beating area in the southeast corner of Georgian Bay, Lake Huron, Canada. Because of the concern over the possible release of tributyltin species (TBT) from antifouling paints on boat hulls and marinas, surveys were carried out in 1989 and 1992 to determine the presence of this species and its degradation products dibutyltin (DBT) and monobutyltin (MBT) in this area. Many fish (pike and young-of-the-year spottail shiners) and sediment samples collected in 1989 contained detectable levels of TBT. A maximum concentration of TBT was recorded in northern pike in the spring to be 240 ng Sn g-1. Maximum levels occurred in marinas during the beginning of the boating season and significantly reduced during the summer and early autumn, although the maximum value of TBT in sediment (392 ng Sn g-1) was observed in the summer of 1989. The seasonal variation of TBT levels was further substantiated in the subsequent 1992 study, in which sediments from three areas in a marina were sampled at monthly intervals from May to October. TBT levels were much higher in May and then generally decreased with time. Mussels (Elliptio complanta) caged in the marina for three months also contained TBT. DBT was frequently detected in the sediments but less frequently in fish and mussels. MBT was generally below detection limits. Plants (macrophytes and cladophora) contained very small amounts of butyltin compounds.

    Notes: A highly sensitive and specific method is described for the determination of methylcyclopentadienylmanganese tricarbonyl (MMT) in gasoline and environmental samples by gas chromatography-plasma atomic emission detection (GC-AED). The procedure is simple, rapid and free from interferences. The absolute limit of detection is 0.5 fg of MMT (0.5×10-15 g) expressed as Mn. The precision for replicate injections (n=5) of an MMT solution (10 pg Mn) was 2.8% relative standard deviation (RSD). Applications of the method to analysis of gasoline (petrol), and preliminary results of the analyses of environmental samples such as air and roadside dirt, are given. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The presence of the highly toxic antifouling agent tributyltin (TBT) and its degradation products was determined in four species of mussels collected from 34 locations in fresh water in Ontario and in sea water on Canada's west and east coasts. The purpose of the study was to establish baseline information in order to assess TBT trends in mussels after the 1989 Canadian regulation of antifouling uses of TBT. In fresh water, concentrations of TBT were much higher in zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) than in Elliptio complanata or Lampsilis radiata radiata. High concentrations of TBT were also found in Mytilus edulus in sea water. Residues of TBT in all species were similar to those that have been determined in other parts of the world before and after the regulation of antifouling uses of TBT in various countries. Analyses for degradation products indicated that zebra mussels metabolize TBT at about the same rate as L. radiata radiata and M. edulis, but more slowly than E. complanata. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: An earlier thermo-analytical study of black powder, using small sample masses and slow heating rates, has been extended to an examination of the behaviour of black powder under the less-controlled conditions of ignition and combustion, by simultaneous measurement of temperature profiles and burning rates.Burning-rate against composition curves for various charcoal/KNO3, mixtures (sulphurless black powder) and for charcoal/KNO3, mixtures with various proportions of sulphur, were concave-down-type curves. The compositions of mixtures with maximum burning rates did not correspond with the compositions of mixtures with maximum enthalpy-of-reaction. Maximum temperatures of ∼1400°C were recorded. Burning rates were found to decrease with increasing particle size of the constituents: with increasing compaction of the mixtures, or when inert diluents or subsidiary fuels were added to the mixtures. Burning rates were also affected by moisture contents above 276, and failure of burning occurred at 〉15% moisture.
