    Notes: Liquid sulfur-olefinic reactions at 140°C forming crosslinked polysulfide polymers have been investigated. A systematic approach to the characterization and some structure-property studies on these new polymeric materials has been presented. The olefinic systems of interest are endo-and exo-dicyclopentadiene and an oligomeric alkenyl polysulfide. Equimolar S8-olefinic system copolymers are amorphous and they show no tendency for sulfur crystallization. A correlation has been drawn between chemical structure and glass transition temperature of the copolymers and terpolymers. Mechanical properties and, in particular, chemical stress relaxation of the crosslinked polysulfide polymers have been investigated.

    Notes: Attenuated total reflectance (ATR) FTIR spectroscopy was utilized for surface studies of ammonia/plasma-modified poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) elastomer networks containing residual chloro-functional molecules. Ammonia/plasma modification of PDMS containing chloro-functional molecules causes the formation of surface amide groups, but due to the parallel formation of surface ammonium chloride, amide groups are not chemically bonded to the PDMS surface. The two primary sources of chlorine-containing species are residual traces of freon and cross-linking initiators present in the network. In the absence of chloro-functional molecules, ammonia/plasma surface modifications of PDMS leads to the formation of stable surface amide groups.

    Adsorption of collagenase to particulate titanium: A possible mechanism for collagenase localization in periprosthetic tissue (1994)

    Notes: Osteolysis is a central feature of aseptic loosening of orthopaedic joint prostheses. This destructive process is believed to result from phagocytosis of implant wear debris by periprosthetic and synovial macrophages and the subsequent release of proinflammatory mediators, including collagenase. Isolated murine macrophages were cultured in vitro with particulate titanium in order to explore the mechanism of macrophage activation by particulate wear debris. The results, in which the amount of secreted, soluble collagenase in culture supernatants was inversely proportional to titanium concentration, suggested that titanium strongly adsorbed secreted collagenase. This inference was confirmed by direct binding assays in which particulate titanium coated with adsorbed collagenase bound an alkaline phosphatase conjugated anticollagenase antibody, but not a conjugated anti-IgG antibody. Adsorption of collagenase was not influenced by preincubation of titanium particles with albumin. The adsorbed collagenase remained enzymatically active as indicated by its ability to hydrolyze a synthetic peptide substrate. These results demonstrate that particulate titanium stimulates collagenase production by macrophages and then strongly adsorbs the secreted proinflammatory enzyme. The process of macrophage stimulation, collagenase secretion, and adsorption may represent an important mechanism for localization and concentration of collagenase in periprosthetic and synovial tissue, a mechanism that ultimately triggers bone resorption through osteoclast activation. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Previous studies by Stephens and McNulty and Strecker and Stephens have demonstrated that foil barriers placed between the mesonephros and lateral plate at stages 12 to 15 inhibited limb development, but foil barriers placed between the neural tube and somites at stages 11 to 12 resulted in limbs with normal skeletal patterns. It was concluded that some influence present in the paraxial region of the embryo at stages 11 to 15 is necessary for normal limb development. The present study was undertaken to localize that influence more precisely. Foil barriers were placed in the lateral edge of the somites or segmental plate of stage 10 to 15 chick embryos. Barriers placed into stage 13 to 15 embryos resulted in chicks with normal limbs, but barriers placed into stage 10 to 11 embryos resulted in chicks with defective limbs. Barriers inserted just lateral to Hensen's node at stages 6 to 8 resulted in embryos with defective or absent wings. We also grafted stage 4 to 9 presumptive limb territories with and without Hensen's node. Explants without Hensen's node formed limb-like structures in 1% of the cases. Explants with Hensen's node formed limb-like structures in 27% of the cases. When barriers were implanted and a node was placed on the lateral side of the barrier, limbs formed in 40% of the cases. These data suggest a medial to lateral progression of some as yet unknown morphogenetic influence necessary for normal limb development and we hypothesized that the influence may initially emanate from Hensen's node.

    Notes: The human [Glu1]-plasminogen carbohydrate isozymes, plasminogen type I (Pg 1) and plasminogen type II (Pg 2), were separated by chromatography and studied in cell binding experiments at 4°C with primary cultures of rat hepatocytes and rat C6 glioma cells. In both cell systems, Pg 1 and Pg 2 bound to an equivalent number of receptors, apparently representing the same population of surface molecules The affinity for Pg 2 was slightly higher. With hepatocytes, the KD for Pg 1 was 3.2 ± 0.2 μM, and the KD for Pg 2 was 1.9 ± 0.1 μM, as determined from Scatchard transformations of the binding isotherms. The Bmax was approximately the same for both isozymes. With C6 cells, the KD for Pg 1 was 2.2 ± 0.1 μM vs. 1.5 ± 0.2 μM for Pg 2. Again, the Bmax was similar with both isozymes. 125I-Pg 1 and 125I -Pg 2 were displaced from specific binding sites by either nonradiolabeled isozyme. The KI for Pg 2 was slightly lower than the KI for Pg 1 with hepatocytes (0.9 vs. 1.3 μM) and with C6 cells (0.6 vs. 1.1 μM). No displacement was detected with miniplasminogen at concentrations up to 5.0 μM. Activation of Pg 1 and Pg 2 by recombinant two-chain tissue-plasminogen activator (rt-PA) was enhanced by hepatocyte cultures. The enhancing effect was greater with Pg 2. Hepatocyte cultures did not affect the activation of miniplasminogen by rt-PA or the activation of plasminogen by streptokinase. Unlike the hepatocytes, C6 cells did not enhance the activation of plasminogen by rt-PA or streptokinase; however, plasmin generated in the presence of C6 cells reacted less readily with α2 -antiplasmin.

    Temperature dependence of secondary crystallization in linear polyethylene (1969)

    Notes: A specimen of linear polyethylene was subjected to isothermal secondary crystallization at a series of temperatures below the primary isothermal crystallization temperature, the melting and primary crystallization stages being held constant throughout the investigation. Dilatometric measurements exhibit an S-character at low values of undercooling Tp - Ts, where Tp and Ts are, respectively, the primary and secondary crystallization temperatures; at larger undercoolings, however, an initial very rapid crystallization is followed by a very slow stage. When corrected for thermal contraction of the polymer, the net degree of secondary transformation is seen to peak at a temperature in the range 109-113°C. The S-character of the isotherms and the peaked temperature variation of degree of transformation lead to the conclusion that a large portion of the secondary crystallization consists of the nucleation and growth of the new crystallites. Johnson-Mehl-Avrami analysis leads to a model of heterogeneous nucleation within the remaining amorphous zones, followed by one-dimensional, diffusion-controlled growth.

    Influence of thermal history on fusion curves of polyethylene (1967)

    Notes: The effect of thermal history on the melting behavior of several linear polymer and copolymers of ethylene has been studied by using a Perkin-Elmer DSC-1 differential scanning calorimeter. Samples of film were heated above their melting point and then cooled at various rates in order to establish a known thermal history. During melting, homopolymers showed one peak and the copolymers two peaks in the DSC scan. The positions and relative sizes of the peaks were dependent on the prior cooling rate. It is suggested that two crystal types occur in the case of copolymers because of entanglements in the branched segments of the molecules. The position of the lower melting endotherm in blown films suggests that cooling rates of about 500°C./min. are achieved in this process.

    Notes: Dissolution of sulfur-cured, carbon black-loaded copolymers and their blends with cis-1,4-polybutadiene (PBD) are brought about by boiling with o-dichlorobenzene which contains a small amount of 2,2′-dibenzamidodiphenyl disulfide. The resulting slurries are subjected to a sequence of separations which include high-speed centrifugation to remove solids, and solvent precipitation followed by filtration to isolate the precipitates. The precipitates are washed with solvent to remove soluble organic materials followed by carbon disulfide washing to dissolve the polymers. Cast films of the polymers are obtained by evaporating the carbon disulfide washings onto sodium chloride discs. The infrared spectra of the cast films of these preparations are very similar to those of their respective polymers prior to loading and curing. Calculations for relative concentrations of bound styrene and PBD microstructures permit nominal identification of the kinds of styrene-butadiene rubber and the amounts of cis-1,4-PBD used in a cured rubber formulation. Absorption bands used are near 3.35 μ for cis-1,4-PBD, 6.65μ for bound styrene, 10.35 μ for trans-1,4-PBD; and 11.0 μ for vinyl-1,2-PBD. Efforts are being made to improve the data by using a grafting infrared instrument and also to extend the calibrations to include other rubber blends.

    Distribution and movement of membrane-associated platelet glycoproteins: Use of colloidal gold with correlative video-enhanced light microscopy, low-voltage high-resolution scanning electron microscopy, and high-voltage transmission electron microscopy (1989)

    Notes: Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), especially low-voltage (1 KeV) high-resolution SEM, can be used in conjunction with stereo pair high-voltage (1 MeV) transmission electron microscopy (HVEM) of whole spread cells or thick sections effectively to correlate surface structure with internal structure. Surface features such as microvilli, pits, pseudopodia, ruffles, attached virus, and other surface-related morphologic characteristics can be identified using SEM, while underlying cytoskeletal structure and organelle organization can be viewed by HVEM of the same preparation. However, the need to “prepare” cells for electron microscopy precludes observation in the living state. The use of several types of video-enhanced light microscopy (VLM) permits observation of living cells such that certain surface and internal features can be observed at a relatively high level of resolution or detection. Thus, changes in living cells can be followed, and at appropriate times the cells may be chemically fixed or rapidly frozen and prepared for ultrastructural examination by electron microscopy.We have utilized VLM in conjunction with SEM and HVEM to correlate changes in shape and surface structure with changes in the internal structure of platelets. In addition, we have found it advantageous to use colloidal gold-labeling procedures, because these markers are detectable by all three forms of microscopy. Using this approach we have labeled platelet membrane GPIIb/IIIa, a receptor for RGD-containing adhesive proteins, with gold-fibrinogen or gold-anti-IIb/IIIa. The initial binding and subsequent movement of gold-fibrinogen-IIb/IIIa complexes in living platelets was followed by VLM. The movement of individual labels could be mapped. Subsequent observation by low-voltage (1 KeV), high-resolution SEM and HVEM permits visualization of the same individual receptors tracked by LM. The final position on the membrane or the position-in-transit when fixative was added was determined relative to surface ultrastructure (SEM) and internal, particularly cytoskeletal, ultrastructure (HVEM).

    Effect of proccessing on flow properties of some linear polyethylene resins (1968)

    Notes: Changes in flow properties of polyethylene resins have often been observed during processing operations. Studies in this laboratory show that melt viscosity of polyethylene normally increases when the resin is heated in a compression mold at temperatures below 300°C. At the same time, the solution viscosity actually decreases in some cases. During extrusion, on the other hand, both melt viscosity and solution viscosity are shown to decrease. In addition, the logarithm of melt flow rate is seen to deviate markedly from the expected linear dependence on reciprocal of absolute temperature. The results suggest that both crosslinking and chain-scission reactions occur during processing, the former predominating at low or zero shear, the latter at high shear.
