    Notes: Abstract Chlorine and oxygen evolving at RuO2/Ti and RuO2–TiO2/Ti anodes have been simultaneously determined at electrode potentials from 1.0 to about 2V (vs Ag/AgCl) by differential electrochemical mass spectroscopy (DEMS). On the RuO2/Ti anodes, the threshold electrode potential for oxygen evolution increased with a decrease in RuO2 loading, while the chlorine evolution potential was unchanged. Low RuO2 loading anodes gave a high chlorine evolution ratio under various constant electrolysis potentials. On the RuO2–TiO2/Ti anodes, the threshold electrode potential for oxygen evolution increased with an increase in the TiO2 content more remarkably than that for chlorine evolution. High TiO2 content anodes gave a high chlorine evolution ratio at various constant electrolysis potentials. The combination of RuO2 and TiO2 exhibits a remarkable effect with respect to the enhancement of chlorine evolution selectivity.

    Notes: Abstract The eighth nerve compound action potential (CAP) in 95 guinea pigs was measured using click stimuli to investigate age-related changes in their neural auditory thresholds. The animals were separated into three groups: group A (n = 43, 86 ears; 2–4 months old); group B (n = 29; 58 ears, 13–15 months old); and group C (n = 23; 46 ears, 23–25 months old). With increasing age, a gradual elevation of CAP thresholds was clearly seen among the three groups. The negative peak (N1) latencies of the CAP were prolonged, and the N1 amplitudes of the CAP decreased. There were significant differences in N1 latencies among the three groups and in N1 amplitudes between groups A and B, and between groups A and C. However, the rate of decline of the thresholds as well as the input-output function curves of the CAP varied in some of the oldest animals, suggesting that there were some individual differences in degenerative aging processes of the auditory system.

    Notes: Abstract To evaluate the protective function of the mucous blanket (MB) against lectin substances, we examined at the ultrastructural level whether intraluminal colloidal gold-labelled wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) could enter the MB-covered epithelial cell surface of the guinea pig tubotympanic mucosa. Post-embedding staining with WGA/gold on thin tissue sections was done in parallel for comparison. The cell surface glycoconjugate of the eustachian tubal and transitional epithelium had a typical bilayered structure: the outer MB and the microvilli-associated glycocalyx (MAG), which were interposed by the interciliary fluid zone. In squamous epithelium of the distal middle ear, the MB adhered to the MAG, thereby forming a monolayered coat of glycoconjugates at the cell surface. In the pre-embedding staining, WGA/gold did not bind with the MB and MAG in the eustachian tube, and exclusively bound with MB in the transitional area. Direct binding was also found with MAG and the apical plasmic membrane in the squamous epithelium. These findings indicate that MAG is occluded by MB lined with the interciliary fluid zone for luminal access of lectin at the proximal lumina of the tubotympanic epithelium. It is also suggested that MB existing at two sites possesses a different WGA-binding capacity: shielding as a “dust cover” in the eustachian tube and entrapping as a “flypaper” against lectin in the transitional area of the middle ear.
