    Notes: An epizootic in pond cultured sea bass, Lateolabrax japonicus, was caused by Nocardia sp. in Taiwan, in September and October 1997. The cumulative mortality within 1 month was 17.5% (3500 out of 20 000 fish) and diseased fish were 7 months old with total lengths from 25 to 30 cm. Multiple, yellowish white nodules, 0.1–0.2 cm in diameter, were scattered in the gill, heart, liver, spleen and kidney. Histopathologically, typical granulomatous lesions appeared in those organs. The morphology of isolated bacteria from brain heart infusion (BHI) medium or Lowenstein–Jensen medium (LJM) were bead-like filaments, as shown by Ziehl-Neelsen's (ZN) staining method. The gross lesion and histopathological changes found in experimentally infected fish were similar to those in naturally infected fish. Based on the growth characteristics, morphological and biochemical properties of the bacterium, and histopathological changes, the isolated bacteria were identified as Nocardiaseriolae. This is the first report of N. seriolae-infected sea bass in aquaculture.

    Notes: Summary Cross-incompatibility between cultivated peanuts and their wild relatives outside the section Arachis has impeded the utilization of many species possessing high resistances or good qualities. Despite the great efforts made to culture immature ovules or embryos, few hybrid offspring have been obtained. In this study, gynophores from Arachis hypogaea L. pollinated with A. glabrata Benth. were cultured and F1 hybrids seeds were harvested, and F2 and F3 generations produced. The characters of F2 generation exhibited a wide range of segregation. Leaf peroxidase isozyme PAGE analysis revealed that the hybrids were quite different from their parents in relation to band number, width and isozyme activity. The zymograms of the hybrids and their parents were partially alike. This verified the authenticity of the hybrids.

    Notes: Abstract The standard ASTM-E399 plane-strain fracture toughness (K IC) test requires (1) the test specimen dimensions to be greater than a minimum size and, (2) fatigue precracking of the specimen. These criteria render many materials impractical to test. The short-rod elastic-plastic plane-strain fracture toughness test proposed by Barker offers a method of testing not requiring fatigue precracking and furthermore, it appears that test specimens smaller than that stipulated by ASTM can be used to obtain validK IC values. In this study, the use of a modified miniature short-rod fracture toughness test specimen was investigated. Our miniature short-rod specimen is approximately 7 mm long and 4 mm diameter. These mini specimens are well suited for the purpose of testing biomaterials. The value of the minimum stress intensity factor coefficient (Y m * ) for the mini short-rod specimens was determined experimentally using specimens machined from extruded acrylic rod stock. An elastic-plastic fracture toughness analysis using the mini specimens gave values ofK IC for extruded acrylic (nominally PMMA) equal to 0.67 ± 0.06 MPa m1/2. The problem of testing non-flat crack growth resistance curve materials (such as PMMA) using the short-rod fracture toughness test method is discussed. A modification to the test procedure involving the use of aY * value corresponding to a short crack length is suggested as a method of overcoming this difficulty.

    Notes: Abstract Clinical experience has shown that fracture of PMMA-based bone cements is a significant factor in the failure of orthopaedic joint replacements. Earlier studies of the fracture toughness properties of bone cement have been limited to relatively large test specimens — ASTM standard test methods require the use of specimens with dimensions considerably larger that those associated with bone cement in clinical use. In this study, a miniature short-rod specimen was used to measure the fracture toughness (K IC) or two bone cements (Simplex-P and Zimmer LVC). The dimension of our mini specimens approaches the cross-section of bone cements as usedin vivo. The short-rod elastic-plastic fracture toughness test method introduced by Barker was utilized to ascertain the effect of specimen preparation and ageing in distilled water on fracture toughness. Our study indicated that slow hand-mixed specimens possess comparable fracture toughness to centrifuged specimens. After ageing in water, however, centrifuged and slow hand-mixed specimens are more fracture resistant than specimens prepared by mixing the cement quickly. An optimum void content for the bone cements studied was suggested by the experimental results; for Simplex-P bone cement it appeared to be less than 1.6% whereas it was between 1.6 and 3.6% for Zimmer LVC cement. Simplex-P bone cement also showed superior fracture toughness compared to Zimmer LVC cement after storage in water for 60 days at 37° C.
