    Notes: Abstract  Recent developments in the field of endocrine cell biology and pathology at both morphological and molecular levels are briefly outlined and discussed as a basis for endocrine tumor characterization. The main tools available for identifying the endocrine nature of the tumors, their pathogenetic interpretation, and experimental reproduction with special emphasis on tumor antecedents are reported. Based on this, classifications of endocrine tumors of the pancreas and gastrointestinal tract are developed, covering most clinical (hyperfunctional syndromes included), pathological, and biological patterns, with special emphasis on tumor prognosis.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Collodion baby is a clinical description for a transient condition of the newborn which is caused by various disorders of cornification. The majority of cases are due to autosomal recessive lamellar ichthyosis. In up to 10% of cases „self-healing” of the skin occurs. We report about a mature male baby who at birth was covered entirely with a shining, collodion-like membrane. There also were marked ectropion of the eyelids and eversion of the lips. After shedding of the membrane almost complete clearing of the skin occurred until the age of three months. In the case reported here skin biopsies taken on the 20th day of life showed discrete and non-specific ultrastructural changes, with no features of lamellar ichthyosis or other cornification disorders. Discussion: From these findings and those reported in the literature we conclude that the prognosis of a collodion baby is unpredictable on clinical evaluation. However an ultrastructural examination can contribute to early assessment of prognosis in this heterogeneous neonatal condition.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Das klinische Bild des Kollodiumbabys wird durch verschiedene Verhornungsstörungen hervorgerufen; in der Regel entwickelt sich später eine lamelläre Ichthyose. Eine Selbstheilung wird in bis zu 10% der Fälle beobachtet. Wir berichten über ein männliches Reifgeborenes, welches bei der Geburt vollständig in eine glänzende, kollodiumähnliche Membran gehüllt war. Weiterhin fanden sich ektropionierte Augenlider und evertierte Lippen. In den ersten Lebenswochen löste sich die Membran gänzlich ab und bis zum Alter von 3 Monaten war die Haut des Patienten weitgehend erscheinungsfrei. Die elektronenmikroskopische Untersuchung einer am 20. Lebenstag entnommenen Hautbiopsie zeigte bei unserem Patienten keinen auf eine lamelläre Ichthyose oder eine andere Verhornungsstörung hinweisenden Strukturdefekt der Keratinozyten. Es fanden sich lediglich unspezifische Veränderungen im Sinn einer Abräumreaktion. Diskussion: Unter Berücksichtigung der Literatur läßt sich folgern, daß das klinische Bild eines Kollodiumbabys keine Rückschlüsse auf den weiteren Verlauf zuläßt. Dagegen kann die Elektronenmikroskopie prognostisch richtungsweisende Aussagen beim ätiologisch heterogenen Erscheinungsbild des Kollodiumbabys erlauben.

    Notes: Abstract Biofilms form on all implanted foreign materials. In venous access ports (VAPs), the biofilm with entrapped organisms may be the source of recurring bacteraemia. At present, little is known of the development of biofilms in VAPs. In this study light, scanning, and transmission electron microscopy were used to investigate the evolution of biofilms in VAPs implanted in 15 African children with Wilms' tumour. The VAPs were removed either emergently because of infection (n = 6) or blockage (n = 3), or electively at the end of chemotherapy (n = 6). Intact biofilms were obtained from lengths of the catheter attached to ports that had been in place for 11 days to 3 years. Each was prepared for light and electron microscopy. In infected ports, shortly after implantation biofilms were thin and comprised of apparently healthy erythrocytes (RBCs) and occasional platelets, leucocytes (WBCs), and bacteria enmeshed in a network of fibrin. Three weeks after implantation, RBCs had autolysed and large numbers of WBCs and bacterial colonies were present within and on the luminal surface. In 1 instance, the lumen of a VAP had been occluded by a “plug” of WBCs. In non-infected patients, the biofilms in long-standing VAPs were of varying thickness and primarily composed of an amorphous granular material. In most cases, healthy and necrotic bacteria were present both within the core and on the surface of the biofilms. The results suggest that while bacteria, per se, are an important factor, the presence and degradation of blood components may be an equally important factor in the development of biofilms in VAP catheters.

    Notes: Abstract  We report the first case of an extranodal follicular dendritic cell (FDC) tumour localized in the nasopharynx of a 44-year-old male patient. The tumour cells were characterized immunohistochemically by strong expression of CD21, HLA-DR and vimentin and focal expression of CD68 and cytokeratin. Electron microscopic examination revealed desmosomal cell junctions between adjacent cell processes. Molecular genetic analysis using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) showed germline configuration of immunoglobulin and T-cell receptor genes. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genomes were detectable by PCR. After complete surgical tumour removal and radiotherapy the patient is disease-free 20 months after the initial diagnosis.

    Notes: Abstract  Although pruritus is the cardinal symptom of atopic dermatitis, its mechanism is not well understood. Free nerve endings in the skin are involved in pruritus as itching receptors. We studied the cutaneous nerve fibres in lichenified lesions of 16 patients with adult atopic dermatitis. On immunohistochemistry, fibres immunoreactive for neurofilament, neuron-specific enolase, and protein gene product 9.5 were observed in the papillary dermis and dermoepidermal junctions as well as in the epidermis. In these areas, no fibres stained positively for substance P, neuropeptide Y, vasoactive intestinal peptide, beta endorphin, somatostatin or serotonin. On electron microscopy, the ultrastructure of subepidermal and intraepidermal free nerve endings appeared to be essentially normal. However, the distribution density of the cutaneous nerve fibres was much higher than in normal controls, and the diameter of these fibres was much larger, because of the large number of axons in each nerve fibre. Degranulation of mast cells was not seen. These findings suggest that pruritus in lichenified atopic skin is probably not caused by damage to the cutaneous free nerve endings. In such lesions, the number of the cutaneous free nerve endings is greatly increased, but they may have a normal function.

    Notes: Abstract  Tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α-induced apoptosis is associated with several nuclear and cell surface alterations, in particular with the condensation of chromatin and the fragmentation of the cell nucleus, formation of blebs on the cell surface and breakdown of the plasma membrane. However, there is little information about the relationship between the cell surface alterations and the nuclear changes during apoptosis. To study this, cultured WEHI cells were exposed to TNF-α over different time periods. The cytological changes were studied using a correlative approach, which allowed observation of the same cell consecutively under light, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The earliest sign of cell alteration was a reduction of the number of microvilli after 15 min of TNF-α exposure. This reaction was reversible (reappearance of microvilli) and took place during the first hour, in which neither nuclear alterations nor plasma membrane breakdown were observed. The changes in the nucleus began with condensation of chromatin after approximately 1 h of TNF-α-exposure. After 4–5 h the microvilli disappeared again, particularly in areas where the formation of blebs (blebbing) was observed. Strikingly, cell surface alterations (bleb formation) were detected only in those cells that presented with condensed chromatin, and not in cells with a normal chromatin pattern, proving at least a close correlation between nuclear and cell surface changes during the process of apoptosis.

    Notes: Abstract In almost all of the earlier reported cases of Kufs’ disease, the adult form of ceroid lipofuscinosis, the diagnosis was ascertained by cerebral tissue examination, while peripheral biopsy examination revealed an apparent poor diffusion of specific lipofuscinic deposits, the finger print profiles (FPs). We report the ultrastructural data from skin, muscle and rectal biopsy specimens from two siblings, both still living, who present clinical features of Kufs’ disease. We observed the presence of FPs in locations that differ from the previous classic reports. Our results emphasize the value of extracerebral biopsies for the diagnosis of Kufs’ disease in vivo, and suggest some physiopathological assumptions based on vascular wall involvement.

    Notes: Abstract  Guanylin, structurally related to the heat-stable enterotoxin of E. coli, is a 15-amino-acid peptide isolated from rat small intestine. We investigated the morphological effects of an intravenous injection of rat and human guanylin upon the rat intestine. Various doses of rat guanylin were injected intravenously in anesthetized rats. After 5, 10 and 30 min, rats were killed by intracardiac perfusion with aldehyde fixative, and specimens of the intestine were then prepared for light and electron microscopy. Intravenously injected rat guanylin rapidly induced mucus secretion from crypt goblet cells in the duodenum. About half of the crypt goblet cells secreted mucous granules by compound exocytosis within 5 min. The villus goblet cells, in contrast, were not sensitive to guanylin. Goblet cells in the jejunum were less responsive than those in the duodenum. This secretory response was rare in the ileum and colon. Human guanylin produced similar results. The mucus secretion induced by guanylin was inhibited by a prior-injection of atropine, but not hexamethonium. Moreover, guanylin induced intense edema in the mucosa and submucosa of the small intestine 5 min after the injection, which disappeared after 30 min. A prior-injection of atropine did not block the appearance of edema. In conclusion, the intravenous injection of guanylin induces two phenomena related to water movement: (1) compound exocytosis of mucous granules from crypt goblet cells in the rat duodenum and jejunum; (2) perineural, inter-epithelial and intra-epithelial edema in the rat small intestine.

    Notes: Abstract Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease that causes long-term secondary complications such as neuropathy. The occurrence of diabetic neuropathy has generally been thought of as being associated with hyperglycaemia. However, in a previous light microscopic examination of plantar nerves in diabetic BB/Wor rats treated with insulin implants we found that eu-/hyperglycaemic rats present a normal picture, whereas eu-/hypoglycaemic rats show severe changes. The aim of the present work is to supplement our previous light microscopic report with electron microsocpic data from the lateral plantar nerve of normal, eu-/hyperglycaemic and eu-/hypoglycaemic BB/Wor rats. Under the electron microscope lateral plantar nerves collected from eu-/hyperglycaemic rats presented a qualitatively normal picture. In addition, the fibre numbers and the size distribution of the myelinated fibres were normal. In contrast, specimens from eu-/hypoglycaemic BB/Wor rats showed severe qualitative changes, interpreted as signs of axonal de- and regeneration. The total number of axons was somewhat subnormal and the sizes of the myelinated fibres were strongly shifted towards smaller diameters. These data confirm our previous light microscopic observations. We conclude that eu-/hypoglycaemic BB/Wor rats treated with insulin implants, but not similarly treated eu-/hyperglycaemic animals, develop a neuropathy in their plantar nerves.

    Notes: Abstract Human spinocerebellar degeneration is one of the intractable diseases. We studied the detailed neuropathology of cats with hereditary cerebellar degeneration obtained from the experimental breeding. The findings included almost total loss of Purkinje cells with an increase in Bergmann’s glia in the cerebellar hemisphere, preservation of some Purkinje cells in the vermis and moderate neuronal depletion of the olive nucleus. Cerebellar and pontine nuclei were normal. The cerebrum and spinal cord as well as the peripheral nervous system appeared normal. Electron microscopic examination revealed swelling of the distal dendrites of Purkinje cells in the less-affected nodule of the vermis, and clusters of presynaptic boutons without any synaptic contact in the severely affected folia where Purkinje cell bodies and dendrites disappeared. Prolonged existence of presynapses in the molecular and Purkinje cell layers was confirmed by positive immunoreactivity to anti-synaptophysin. Quantitative analysis using electron microscopy demonstrated an apparent increase in the density and mean size of presynapses in the molecular layer of the severely affected folia. These findings indicate that degeneration of Purkinje cells started at the most distal part of the dendrite in this animal model of cerebellar degeneration, and that presynapses, axon terminals of the granular cells and basket cells can exist for a long time even after complete degeneration of the Purkinje cells. Further investigation of this novel animal model may promote a better understanding of pathogenesis of human hereditary cerebellar degeneration.

    Notes: Abstract  The innervation of the knee joint synovial membrane of the guinea pig, i.e., the synoviocyte layer, the subjacent connective tissue and the connective tissue region beneath, was analyzed with immunohistofluorescence and electron microscopy. A screening of the innervation with antibodies against the general axon marker – protein gene product (PGP) 9,5 – revealed the presence of nerve fibers distributed in various regions of the knee joint synovial membrane. Confirmating previous studies, some of these nerve fibers stained with antibodies to tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), neuropeptide Y (NPY), substance P (SP), calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP). In addition, dynorphin (DYN)-containing fibers were detected, which have not been reported previously in normal joints. In general, the immunoreactive fibers were observed close to the synoviocytes and at blood vessels. Fibers with colocalization of NPY- and TH-like immunoreactivities (LIs), as well as of DYN- and TH-LIs were demonstrated. In the electron microscope, bundles of unmyelinated fibers as well as single fibers were found in the connective tissue region below the synoviocytes. Varicose parts of the nerve fibers contained mainly small, clear vesicles. Small and large dense-cored vesicles were also seen, but less frequently. Denser portions of the plasma membranes of some axons were observed in these regions, facing the extracellular space. Myelinated fibers were also observed in some nerve bundles. These findings emphasize the complex innervation of the synovial membrane, with nerve fibers containing a host of neuroactive substances. Altogether, these fibers are probably involved in many functions such as vasoregulation and control of synovial secretion in addition to being a source of mediators in joint inflammation.

    Notes: Abstract  Specimens of human cerebral cortex were obtained during neurosurgical operations and studied by immunocytochemistry and electron microscopy, using antibodies to the metabotropic glutamate receptor subunit mGluR1a and the ionotropic glutamate receptor GluR2/3. A small number of non-pyramidal neuronal cell bodies were labelled for mGluR1a. Double immunolabelling with mGluR1a and GluR2/3 showed that most pyramidal cell bodies were labelled for GluR2/3 but not for mGluR1a. Despite the non-colocalisation of these two receptor subtypes in cell bodies, however, many dendrites and dendritic spines were double-labelled for mGluR1a and GluR2/3 at electron microscopy. As there is evidence that most neurons positive for GluR2/3 are pyramidal cells, this suggests that mGluR1a is present in dendrites of pyramidal neurons, despite absent or low levels of immunoreactivity in their cell bodies.

    Notes: Abstract The aim of this electron-microscopic study was to analyze the distribution of synaptic contacts on the cell bodies and dendrites of permanently axotomized adult cat spinal α-motoneurons. Following transection and ligation of the medial gastrocnemius nerve, the synaptic covering of the cell bodies and three different dendritic compartments of homonymous α-motoneurons was analyzed quantitatively at 3, 6, and 12 weeks postoperatively. The synaptic boutons were classified according to their size and the shape of their synaptic vesicles. On the soma, a transient increase in the number of boutons was noted at 3 weeks and 6 weeks postoperatively, while after 12 weeks the bouton number had decreased to half of its normal value. The transient increase was mainly due to an increase in the number of F-type boutons. At 12 weeks postoperatively, the synaptic covering was reduced by 83% on the soma and by 57% on the proximal dendrites. In the distal dendritic regions, the values for synaptic covering remained largely unchanged. In summary, axotomized motoneurons exhibit a reduction in synaptic covering which is maximal on the cell body and becomes less pronounced centrifugally along the dendrites. However, if also taking into account the loss of distal dendritic branches that occurs in axotomized motoneurons, the total loss of boutons is several times larger in the dendrites than on the soma.

    Notes: Abstract The morphological and physical characteristics of the capsule of Vibrio cholerae O139 were examined. An electron microscopic study using the freeze-substitution technique showed that all of the V. cholerae strains of the O139 serogroup examined have a very thin fibrous layer on the outside of the outer membrane. In contrast, the mutants of strain O139, strain MO10T4 (which lacks capsule synthesis), and strain Bengal-2R1 (which fails to synthesize both the capsule and the O-antigen of lipopolysaccharide) were all found to have lost the surface layer. In addition, the capsule layer could also not be observed on the surface of V. cholerae strain O1. To determine the biological characteristics of the capsule of strains of the O139 serogroup, we investigated the serum killing activity and bacterial phagocytosis by polymorphonuclear leukocytes. The O139 strains were more resistant to the serum killing activity than were the V. cholerae O1 strain and the O139 mutant strains, thus suggesting that the existence of the capsule gave a serum-resistant character to the O139 strains. The surface character of the O139 strains had the same hydrophobic character as did that of the O139 mutant strains and the O1 strain. In addition, all the V. cholerae O1 and O139 strains examined, including the mutant strains, were effectively ingested by the human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. The number of ingested bacteria was not significantly different among the strains, and the ingestion of the acapsular O139 mutants thus showed that the capsule does not play an antiphagocytic role. These data suggest that the capsule of V. cholerae O139 has a physiological function different from that of the ordinal hydrophilic capsule that is found in invasive bacteria such as Klebsiella pneumoniae.

    Notes: Abstract Natural enrichments of magnetic bacteria from the Itaipu lagoon near Rio de Janeiro were dominated by coccoid-to-ovoid morphotypes that produced unusually large magnetosomes. To determine the phylogenetic position of these unusual microorganisms, 16S rRNA genes were retrieved from bacteria magnetically separated from sediment of the Itaipu lagoon by in vitro amplification and cloning of PCR products into a plasmid vector. Partial sequencing of the obtained clones revealed two clusters of closely related sequences affiliated to a distinct lineage consisting exclusively of magnetic bacteria within the α-subclass of Proteobacteria. For a detailed phylogenetic analysis, several almost complete sequences of the 16S rRNA genes were determined. One representative clone of each cluster provided a PCR template for the in vitro transcription of group-specific polynucleotide probes complementary to a variable region of the 16S rRNA molecule. At least three different morphotypes of magnetic bacteria were reliably identified by post-embedding hybridization of ultra-thin sections. Electron microscopic analyses of hybridized cells enabled for the first time a detailed description of the morphological variety and ultrastructure of phylogenetically identified, uncultured magnetic bacteria. Two distinct coccoid bacteria were identified by the transcript probe complementary to the 16S rRNA sequence mabrj12, whereas the probe complementary to the sequence mabrj58 allowed the identification of an ovoid morphotype that displayed magnetosomes with the largest volumes observed to date.

    Notes: Abstract DNA bound on clay minerals, sand, and humic acids has been shown, both in vitro and in situ, to be capable of transforming bacteria and to resist degradation by nucleases, which could result in the crypticity of genes in soil and other natural habitats. To determine where DNA is bound on clay minerals, which may help to explain how bound DNA becomes resistant to degradation by nucleases but retains the ability to transform competent cells, chromosomal DNA from Bacillus subtilis bound on montmorillonite (M) and kaolinite (K) was examined by X-ray diffractometry and transmission and scanning electron microscopy. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the basal spacings of M and K were not altered, indicating that this DNA did not significantly intercalate the clays. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy showed that the binding of this DNA was primarily on the edges of M and K, although some binding was also apparent on the planar surfaces. Based on the results of these studies, it is postulated that: 1.extension from the edges of the clays enables the unbound end of DNA to interact with receptor sites on competent cells and result in their transformation; and 2.binding on clays alters the electron distribution and/or conformation of DNA, which reduces its hydrolysis by nucleases.

    Notes: Abstract  In transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE), such as scrapie in animals and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans, the central event is the conversion of a host-encoded amyloidogenic protein (PrPc) into an abnormal isoform (PrPsc) that accumulates as amyloid in TSE brain. PrPc is a membrane sialoglycoprotein synthesized in the central nervous system and elsewhere. We have examined the ultrastructural localization of PrPc in numerous hamster and some human extracerebral tissues, by means of a post-embedding electron-microscopic method combined with immunogold labeling. In stomach, intestine, lung, and kidney from hamsters, and in stomach, kidney, and spleen from humans, immunogold labeling specific for PrPc is observed on various cellular substructures related to secretory pathways: Golgi apparatus, secretory globules, and plasma membrane. In mucous epithelial cells of stomach and intestine, PrPc appears to be concentrated in secretory globules, suggesting a role for PrPc in the secretory function of the digestive tract. The secretory aspect of PrPc may be a key to understanding the physiopathological mechanisms underlying TSE.

    Notes: Abstract  The evidence for vesicular transport as a mechanism for secretion by human basophils is reviewed. Initially, direct electron-microscopic inspection of experimentally produced and sequentially biopsied contact allergy skin lesions revealed a unique form of secretion termed piecemeal degranulation, characterized by the slow emptying of secretory granule contents (with retention of empty containers) in the absence of extrusion of entire granules. Budding of small vesicles to/from secretory granules was observed, and cytoplasmic vesicles were abundant. A generalized degranulation model was proposed to unify classical regulated secretion and this new form of secretion. Investigation of the mechanism(s) of secretion from human basophils required the development of numerous tools and resources. Chief among these were: (a) isolation and purification of circulating basophils; (b) identification of specific growth factors to increase the supply of this rare granulocyte; (c) understanding of secretogogue mechanisms and reliable analyses of secreted basophil products; and (d) development of ultrastructural preparations allowing imaging of small vesicles and quantifiable small electron-dense tags for granule materials in small vesicles. Applications of these tools to well-defined models of basophil secretion have established a role for vesicles as a mechanism for effecting secretion of histamine and the Charcot-Leyden crystal protein from activated human basophils.

    Notes: Abstract Specific populations of hepatic sinusoidal cells were stained with monoclonal antibodies that recognize monocytes/macrophages (ED1), tissue macrophages (Kupffer cells) (ED2), MHC class II (Ia) antigen (MRC OX6), and dendritic cells/γ,δ T-cells (MRC OX62) and analyzed by light and electron microscopy. The majority of ED1+ and/or ED2+ cells were localized to the hepatic parenchyma, whereas OX6+ and/or OX62+ cells were more densely distributed within Glisson’s sheath than in the hepatic parenchyma. Double-immunoperoxidase staining of normal liver for ED1, ED2, and OX6 identified dendritic cells (DC) of two different phenotypes, ED1+ED2–OX6+ and ED1–ED2–OX6+. DC can be classified into three different types based on ultrastructural characteristics. The first type (type I) is characterized by one or more long cytoplasmic processes and a well-developed lysosomal system. The second type (type II) has an inconspicuous lysosomal system, abundant hyaloplasm, and characteristic short cytoplasmic processes. The third type (type I–II) has cytologic features intermediate between those of type I and type II DC. At the electron-microscopic level, these three cell types are found in the sinusoidal lumen, whereas the majority of type II DC are located in the space of Disse and Glisson’s sheath. Furthermore, some OX6-labeled elongated DC appeared to traverse the lumen of sinusoids through endothelial pores to enter the space of Disse. One hour after intravenous injection of latex particles (0.81 μm in diameter), numerous latex-laden dendritic cells (ED1+OX6+, type I and type I–II) were detected in the lumen of hepatic sinusoids, but not in the space of Disse or Glisson’s sheath. These findings suggest that normal rat liver contains resident dendritic cells which downregulate phagocytic activity and mature into potent accessory cells during migration from the portal vein toward the central vein. These DC then traverse the sinusoidal lumen to the hepatic lymph system via the space of Disse.

    Notes: Abstract Interaction of the Escherichia coli DnaA (replication initiator) protein with restriction fragments of phage λ DNA demonstrated differential binding of DnaA along the whole λ DNA. Interaction of DnaA with the λ replication region (from the promoter p R to the origin of replication, oriλ) demonstrated a strong binding of DnaA to the region around the p o promoter where synthesis of a short antisense oop RNA is initiated. The four sequences protected by DnaA (two 9mers and two 5mers) are not related even to a relaxed DnaA box. The pattern of protection of these four sequences and the location of three DNase I hypersensitive sites in the λ DNA r strand, together with results of mobility shift assays and electron microscopy studies, may indicate an interaction involving DnaA monomers bound to different DNA positions on one side of the helix and the formation of higher-order nucleoprotein structures. Therefore, it is tempting to suggest that DnaA, in addition to its activity in regulation of replication and transcription, could be considered as a factor which structures certain chromosomal regions.

    Notes: Summary Exines fromTypha angustifolia L. pollen were dissolved in hot 2-aminoethanol. The solubilisate was successively fractionated and reaggregated via a dialysis cascade with dialysis tubings of different exclusion volumina. Four fractions of reaggregated material with different molecular mass were obtained. Fraction 1 with a molecular mass above 25,000 Da, fraction 2 with a molecular mass between 10,000–25,000 Da, fraction 3 with a molecular mass between 5,000–10,000 Da, and fraction 4 of a molecular mass lower than 5,000 Da. The fractions were comparatively analysed by scanning and transmission electron microscopy and X-ray microscopy. The material of the fractions with a molecular mass above 10,000 Da exhibit high congruence to the initial material. Analysis of the reaggregated material with the lowest molecular mass revealed special distinct substructures which in form and size showed high similarities to substructures of exines described in literature. In detail, spherical substructures consisting of an electron-dense core surrounded by an electron-transparent corona and in addition elongated substructures with a distinctive surface sculpture were detected.

    Notes: Summary In the seed coat ofGasteria verrucosa the deposition of phytomelan takes place during seed development in three stages. Phytomelan is a black cell wall material which is chemically very inert. First the radial walls and part of the transverse cell wall of the outer epidermis of the outer integument become thickened by exocytosis of dictyosome vesicles. Callose is deposited at the tangential plasma membrane against those walls. After the callose deposition about two thirds of the original cell volume is filled with callose. During the second stage the callose is broken down, probably into glucose monomers or small polymers. At the same time cellulose is deposited at the outer tangential plasma membrane, forming a wall between the dissolving callose and the plasma membrane. In the third phase small granules appear in the solution of dissolved callose. which grow out and finally fuse to form a block of phytomelan, consisting of spherical 15-nm units. Remarkable is the function of the callose: it determines the size of the phytomelan block, and it probably functions as carbohydrate source for the phytomelan synthesis and/or for the cellulose inner layer. In this study transmission electron microscopy and cryo scanning electron microscopy are used to study the three developmental stages of the formation of the phytomelan layer.

    Notes: Summary The filamentous brown algaHincksia hincksiae can be infected by a large icosahedral double-stranded DNA virus (HincV-1). The virus shows extended latency and is replicated only in cells homologous to sporangia. Virus formation was studied by transmission electron microscopy, DAPI staining, and β-tubulin immunofluorescence. Inhibition of cytokineses results in multinucleate cells, which are the first indication of virus replication in productive cells; the microtubular cytoskeleton does not seem to be affected by the virus. Replication of viral DNA begins in the nuclei, which increase in size and eventually disintegrate. Virus assembly takes place in a mixed nucleo-/cytoplasm. Capsids bud from cisternae, which are interpreted as modified endoplasmic reticulum aggregated to virus assembly centres. The internal membranous component of the virus is thus derived from the endoplasmic reticulum. The particles are empty (electron translucent) when assembled, and the nucleoprotein core seems to be packaged subsequently through an opening in the capsid. A number of fine structural features not previously reported from brown algae and related to virus formation are described. Our results on Hincksia hincksiae virus are compared with observations made on various other icosahedral DNA viruses infecting eukaryotic algae and animals.

    Notes: Abstract In animal experiments, studies on the mechanisms involved in drowning were carried out using latex and gold tracers of defined size and concentration. The tracers were detectable by fluorescence microscopy (latex tracers) and by electron microscopy (gold tracers) in the lungs, kidneys and lymph nodes and were analysed further by X-ray microanalysis using a transmission scanning electron microscope. Tracers with small diameters were shown to penetrate intercellular gaps of the alveolar epithelium and the larger tracers were incorporated into the epithelial and endothelial cells by active pinocytotic mechanisms thus passing through the air-blood barrier. The detection and analysis of tracers in organs of the systemic circulation originating from the immersion fluid can assist in understanding the pathophysiology of drowning and in some selected cases, in making a more definitive diagnosis.

    Notes: Abstract Congenital hydrocephalus was induced by intraperitoneal administration of antipregnant rat kidney serum (APRKS) into rats at 9 days of pregnancy. To clarify a correlation between the oncogenes and expression of hydrocephalus, immunostaining of the fetal rat nervous system for p53 was carried out using Ab-1, a pantropic antirat p53 antibody, and Ab-3, raised against a mutant form of rat p53, Ab-1 staining was observed in cells of the neural plate of the fetus, the yolk sac, and the placenta. Because no staining occurred with Ab-3, it was likely that the p53 induced by antiserum injection was the wild-type protein. This result indicated that p53 may represent a reparative reaction to DNA damage from the APRKS; also, when DNA is irreparably damaged, p53 could induce apoptosis by favoring transcription of a gene encoding an inducet of apoptosis. Insufficient apoptosis, on the other hand, may induce failure of fetal development, contributing in particular to congenital hydrocephalus and other central nervous system anomalies.

    Notes: Abstract A 12-year-old Japanese boy noticed a red nodule on the distal portion of his right great toe about 2 months before entering our clinic. There was evidence of traumatic injury and infection before the appearance of the nodule. Histological examination showed the subcutaneous localization of bony spicules lined by osteoblasts. Haversian canals, which contained blood vessels and connective tissue, were also seen. Electron microscopic examination revealed normal bone structure, but, interestingly, mesenchymal cells that were localized around the tumor had intranuclear inclusions composed of filamentous bundles. From these findings, this case was diagnosed as subungual exostosis. It is suggested that the appearance of intranuclear inclusions, reported here for the first time, is related to the pathogenesis of subungual exostosis.

    Notes: Abstract The maxillary mucosae of chronic sinusitis patients were observed by transmission and scanning electron microscopy. Although the epithelium was severely damaged by the chronic inflammation and the ciliated cells and goblet cells were degraded and had peeled off, most of the basal cells survived at the surface of the mucosa. The surviving basal cells extended their cytoplasmic processes toward each other and finally covered the bare surface of the mucosa. Cells having a few cilia and many microvilli were occasionally observed. Immunohistochemistry for PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen) was also performed. The nuclei of many basal cells in the nonciliated area and those of a few ciliated cells were positive for PCNA. These findings suggest that the maxillary mucosa of chronic sinusitis has the ability to regenerate and that basal cells play the role of precursors to ciliated cells.

    Notes: Abstract To examine the morphological changes of HL-60 cells undergoing apoptosis, we induced apoptosis by etoposide treatment, and compared the findings obtained with an electron microscopic cytochemical method with those obtained with in situ end-labeling (ISEL) of DNA and a DNA fragmentation assay. Apoptotic cells were detected by ISEL of DNA 1h before the ladder formation in the DNA fragmetation assay, and an accumulation of DNA was observed simultaneously around the nucleoli and nuclear membrane by DNA-staining electron microscopy. These findings revealed that the apoptosis-related changes occurred in the DNA before the appearance of ladder formation. DNA staining with osmium ammine B revealed, at higher magnification, a rough fiber formation of DNA before apoptosis and an accumulation of small particles with the course of apoptosis. The number of primary granules stained for peroxidase in the cytoplasm decreased as apoptosis progressed. An examination by the periodic acid-thiocarbohydrazide-silver proteinate (PA-TCH-SP) method revealed in number after the induction of apoptosis. Thus, apoptosis-related changes were observed not only in the nucleus but also in the cytoplasm.

    Notes: ---Five seed oils consisting of unusual triacylglycerols have been examined by high temperature gas chromatography using glass capillary columns coated with the stationary phase SOP-50 (50%-diphenyl-50%-dimethylpolysiloxane, methoxy-terminated). The investigated hydroxy, epoxy, and ketokonjuene triacylglycerols were first derivatized in order to permit analysis by high temperature gas chromatography. Structural elucidation of the intact triacylglycerols was performed with high temperature gas chromatography/negative chemical ionization-mass spectrometry using NH3 as a reagent gas. Individual derivatized lipid species with a molecular weight up to 1176 g/mol could be identified.

    Notes: ---Poor signal-to-noise ratios and analytical reproducibility in capillary electrophoresis were improved by application of multiple injections of the same sample at (pseudo) randomly chosen time moments. One order of signal-to-noise ratio improvement was achieved in practice using an in-house developed computer-controlled pneumatic sampler. However, it is demonstrated here that better implementation of the capabilities of multiple input requires that the detector signal noise be “pre-whitened”, i.e. spikes, baseline drift, oscillations etc. must be removed from the detector signal before transforming it to the electropherogram in the common form. Such filtering of the detector signal was realized by implementing iterative, menu-driven software written in Matlab, a high-level programming language.

    Notes: ---A cryogenic preconcentration/high-resolution gas chromatographic technique has been developed for the rapid, simultaneous quantitation of C1-C4 organic nitrates and halocarbons in ambient air. Whole-air samples are collected in TedlarTM bags by an evacuated-chamber method. Samples were stable in 0.010-cm-thick bags for 24 h if they were immediately stored in a freezer at -25°C. Analytes in a 50-cm3 air sample were efficiently preconcentrated on fused-silica beads at -180°C and thermally desorbed at 30°C. High-resolution gas chromatography with a cross-linked polydimethylsiloxane fused-silica capillary column and an electron-capture detector were used for separation and quantitation of the analytes. An analysis time of about 12 min was facilitated by sample cryofocusing at -180°C and oven temperature programming. Recoveries of the analytes by the evacuated-chamber method were better than 95%. The sensitivity of the technique for sample volumes of 50 cm3 is in the sub-parts-per-trillion by volume (ppt[v]) range for many of the analytes, with an average precision of about ±5% for analytes at levels of about 10 ppt(v).

Statistical analysis of the numerous experiments performed un der identical conditions reveals a loose correlation of the migration separation factor (αm) with the migration retardation factor (Rm). For a subset of 23 drugs, a drop in the concentration of the CSA was also studied, showing the way to further optimization.

    Notes: ---In the present work, four organic modifiers, viz. urea, dioxane, methanol, and tetrahydrofuran, were comparatively and systematically studied in terms of their effects on electrokinetic migration behavior and the retention mechanism of homologous solutes in MECC. The results showed that the electroosmotic mobility, μeo, and the electrophoretic mobility of a micelle, μep,mc, decrease linearly with increasing organic modifier concentration. The ability of organic modifiers to lower μeo is greater than their ability to lower μep,mc. The negative values of the slopes of these linear relationships, Deo and Dep,mc, increase along the series the order urea 〈 methanol 〈 dioxane 〈 tetrahydrofuran. The logarithm of the capacity factor (ln k′) of uncharged homologous solute, which is mainly determined by the hydrophobic interaction, decreases linearly with increasing organic modifier concentration, due not only to the decrease in the partition coefficient but also to the decrease in the phase ratio. A linear relationship was observed between the slope of the plot of ln k′ vs. organic modifier concentration and the carbon number of homologous compound. The slope of such a relationship can characterize the hydrophobicity of the organic modifier. The hydrophobicity of such organic modifiers is also found to increase along the series urea 〈 methanol 〈 dioxane 〈 tetrahydrofuran.

    Notes: ---A recently introduced programmable fluorescence detector was compared with a single wavelength fluorescence detector for quantification of fluoroquinolone (FQ) antibacterial agents, which have widely varying spectral characteristics. The two detectors were connected in parallel to an HPLC system to test their performance characteristics. With single wavelength detection, two FQs, flumequine and oxolinic acid could be detected at an emission wavelength of 368 nm in a single chromatogram while a third FQ, sarafloxacin, was not observed at that wavelength. Similarly, when the detector was optimized for sarafloxacin emission at 440 nm, the other two compounds were undetected. In contrast, all three FQs were quantified at their individual maxima in a single run using the programmable fluorescence detection. The applicability of an HPLC - programmable fluorescence detector, in combination with on-line microdialysis, also was evaluated using chicken liver fortified at low ppb levels with the three FQs. After on-line microdialysis sample clean up, the resultant HPLC chromatograms were free of background interference enabling the programmable detector to optimize the quantitation of the three analytes in a single run. The limit of quantification (LOQ) determined for each FQ was 1.0 ppb and the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.2 ppb, an order lower in magnitude than was obtainable with single wavelength detection.

    Notes: ---In order to increase chromatographic selectivity and to extend the analytical capability of reversed phase liquid chromatography (RP HPLC) many investigators have concentrated on the preparation of silica based column packings with chemically bonded phases (CBP). These phases have also been successfully used in sample preparation techniques, mainly in solid phase extraction (SPE). Although alkyl bonded phases (e.g., C2, C8, and C18) are the most widely used packings in RP HPLC and SPE, various specific applications require CBPs with polar functional groups (e.g., -NH2, -NO2, -CN, and/or -OH). The solution of problems with separation of complicated chiral compounds was attempted by applying stationary phases with chiral selectors (e.g., cyclodextrins, Pirkle phases, crown ethers, etc.). On the other hand, packings with pseudo-membrane or liquid crystal properties have been utilized for the separation of various substances of natural origin. Porous silica is commonly used as a support in the preparation of CBPs. Its physico-chemical characteristics, such as: type and structure of siliceous matrix, porosity, type and concentration of silanol groups, as well as surface purity, strongly influence the density and structure of chemically bonded phases. Recognition of these properties is helpful in optimizing separation processes based on RP HPLC elution and/or extraction of substances with polar character.

    Notes: ---Capillary gas chromatography was performed with mass spectrometric detection using a novel microplasma ion source for operation in an element-selective mode. The ion source was a 350 kHz radio frequency helium plasma, which was sustained inside the 4 cm end of a 0.32 mm i.d. fused silica capillary column, and located inside the high vacuum chamber of the quadrupole mass spectrometer. Due to the low volume of the ion source, a stable low pressure discharge was produced utilizing only the 2.25 mL min-1 of GC carrier gas (helium) for plasma support. Small amounts of oxygen (0.1-0.2% v/v) were added to the plasma gas in order to prevent carbon deposits and to enhance signal-to-noise ratios. Chlorine and bromine were selectively detected at the 5-20 pg s-1 level (S/N = 2), and both produced a response that was linear within 3 orders of magnitude.

    Notes: ---Quartz rods coated with a thin layer of chemically modified silica gel have been used for the generation of a two-component gaseous standard mixture containing carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. A new method based on thermal decomposition of immobilized compounds chemically bonded to the surface of silica gel has been used in the generation process. The oxalic acid moiety bonded to the glycydoxypropylsilylated surface of silica gel underwent decarbonylation and decarboxylation at 300°C, yielding carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. On-line connection of a thermal desorber with the GC/FID enabled calibration of the detector following the process of methanization of CO and CO2. The following amounts of CO and CO2 were generated per unit length of the rod: 15.1 × 10-8 Mol cm-1 (RSD = 5.71%) for CO and 34.2 × 10-8 Mol cm-1(RSD = 5.16%) for CO2.

    Notes: ---A large-volume on-column GC-cryotrapping-IR system was developed for injections of up to 100 μl of organic extracts. Considerable reduction of the solvent-and-water background and enhanced analyte detectability was achieved by using an open-split interface between the GC column and the IR detector and improving the leak-tightness of the system. The system was combined with solid-phase extraction to yield on-line SPE-GC-IR. With this set-up, sample volumes of only 20 ml sufficed to detect, and identify, microcontaminants in tap and surface water at the 0.1-1 μg/L level. Detection limits were on the order of 15 ng/L for tap water when using appropriate functional-group chromatograms. Or, in other words, SPE-GC-IR is a suitable technique for the screening of environmental water samples for functional groups, i.e. classes of compounds, of interest.

    Notes: ---The use of hot splitless, cold splitless, and on-column injections for trace analysis in narrow-bore capillary GC is evaluated. Despite the low flow rates for the columns used, the required splitless times for splitless injections can be surprisingly short if liners with a small inside diameter are used. On-column injection can be applied by using an appropriate normal-bore precolumn coupled to the narrow-bore analytical column using a specially designed low dead volume column connector. The effects of the experimental conditions such as sample volume, injection temperature, and initial oven temperature on peak focusing and the discrimination and degradation behavior of the analytes are discussed. The possibilities to obtain sensitive and fast separations are illustrated by various applications.

    Notes: ---A capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method for the simultaneous assay of bromide, iodide, nitrite, nitrate, and thiocyanate using direct UV detection is reported. The method is based on the separation of anions in a capillary coated with a cationic polymer, polyethyleneimine (PEI). The minimum detection limits, reproducibility of peak areas, and migration times were determined at the optimal condition. The method was applied to the analysis of tap water and human urine. The changes in separation selectivity of the anions resulting from addition of the cationic polymer to the buffer were investigated.

    Notes: ---The influence of a hydrostatic counter pressure on basic mobility equations in MEKC was analyzed theoretically and investigated experimentally. Taking into account the influence of counter pressure, the modified mobility equations predict a decreased migration time ratio t0/tMC, which was confirmed by results obtained in SDS-MEKC separation of a homologous series of n-alkyl phenyl ketones. As a result, the migration time window could be enlarged in a simple way without having to change the chemistry of the system. Although counter pressures reduce peak efficiency in MEKC by disturbing the plug profile, the concomitant enlargement of the migration time window compensates for this effect. Especially for later migrating compounds, peak resolution could be enhanced at moderate counter pressures. The overall peak capacities within the whole migration window increases slightly when applying counter pressures up to 10 mbar.

    Notes: ---This paper addresses the influence of small organic cations in the background electrolyte (BGE) on chiral separation by capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE). Seven basic drugs, viz. alprenolol, amphetamine, anisodamine, isoprenaline, pinacidil, synephrine, and verapamil were used as test compounds with hydroxylpropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) as the chiral selector. Resolution of the chiral test compounds was studied at pH 2.5 in the presence of Tris, ethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, diethylamine, and triethylamine, which exist in their cationic forms at this pH value. Among the six cationic additives studied, triethylamine is most effective in enhancing resolution. A tentative mechanism of the effect is proposed.

    Notes: ---A high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the separation of twenty one constituents of Shao-yao-tang including six flavonoids, six alkaloids, three anthraquinones, three carboxylic acids, one monoterpene, one saponin, and one aldehyde was developed. Detection at 275 nm with a linear gradient elution system consisting of tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBA) and acetic acid solution was found to be suitable for determination of nineteen marker substances in an unpretreated Shao-yao-tang extract within 75 min. This method can also be used to analyze 11-14 components in a number of Chinese herbal preparations such as San-huang-hsieh-hsin-tang, Ching-chieh-lien-chiao-tang, San-tsung-kuei-chien-tang, Chai-hu-ching-kan-tang, and Ching-yin-li-ke-tang.

    Notes: ---The cold pressed peel oils of three species of citrus fruit, viz. sweet orange, tangerine, and grapefruit, have been examined for polymethoxyflavones by GC and GC-MS. Four GC column stationary phases were compared and separation of the six predominant orange oil polymethoxyflavones was obtained isothermally at 310°C in under ten minutes, including the resolution of the polymethoxyflavones from β-sitosterol. The nature of the stationary phase and the analysis temperature exercise dramatic effects on the resolution and elution order of the components, DB-35ms providing the best overall separation. A temperature programmed separation is also presented and the polymethoxyflavone composition of all three oils, as determined by GC-MS, is described. This is the first reported GC-MS study of the PMFs of these citrus species. While tangerine oil is as rich in polymethoxyflavones as orange oil, they are less abundant and occur at lower concentrations in grapefruit oil. Hydroxy-polymethoxyflavones were identified by GC-MS in tangerine oil. One hydroxy-pentamethoxyflavone, M+ = 388, identified in tangerine was also present at low levels in both orange and grapefruit oils. These results are compared with previous studies utilizing HPLC and GC.

    Notes: ---Reversed-flow MEKC, i.e. MEKC at low pHs to suppress the electroosmotic flow, was evaluated for the separation of some homologous series. At low pHs compared to MEKC, the elution order reverses and normal phase type migration is obtained. Moreover, the elution window is nearly infinite. Efficiencies are very high and reproducibilities in absolute migration times are acceptable (%RSD 〈 5). The influence of a series of alcohol modifiers was investigated.

    Notes: ---High temperature gas chromatography (HT-GC) coupled to atomic emission detection (AED) has been applied for the determination of alkyl chain distribution, mole average degree of ethoxylation and weight percent distribution of the corresponding homologues of alcohol ethoxylates without all the actual homologues being available as pure references. Based upon its constant elemental response, the HT-GC-AED system has been evaluated for its applicability to compound independent calibration within the homologous series of the alcohols and alcohol ethoxylates. Discrimination against high molecular weight components by gas chromatography requires conversion to the acetyl or trimethylsilyl derivatives. The latter includes introduction of the hetero atom silicon and thus allows monitoring of the silicon trace. Thus selectivity will be enhanced by excluding detection of compounds which do not react with the derivatization reagent. The method has been validated with the analysis of the technical product Brij 30, consisting of a mixture of alcohol ethoxylates with a vendor-specified mole average degree of ethoxylation of four. The experimental result yields a mole average degree of 4.0 ± 0.1 in the carbon, silicon and oxygen traces.

    Notes: ---The usefulness of capillary electrophoresis (CE) with diode array detection for the profiling of Propolis, a hive product, is investigated. Water extracts of Propolis were analyzed with both capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) at pH 7.0 and 9.3, and micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) with sodium dodecyl sulfate at pH 9.3. Characteristic profiles were obtained and several organic acids and preservatives could be identified by means of library comparison of the recorded UV spectra combined with addition of reference compounds to the extracts. The selectivity of the CZE and MEKC system differed considerably but the information obtained with both methods was similar. The dry residues of the water extraction were extracted with ethanol-water (70 : 30, v/v) and analyzed with the MEKC system to enable the separation of the more hydrophobic constituents of the Propolis samples. Complex profiles containing various well separated peaks were obtained allowing the identification of some interesting flavonoids. On the basis of the recorded CZE and MEKC profiles, the Propolis samples could be divided into two clearly different groups which are probably from a different origin.

    Notes: ---Simultaneous element-selective detection of the halogens and carbon was accomplished with capillary gas chromatography coupled with microplasma mass spectrometry. The microplasma ion source was a radio frequency plasma contained inside the last 4-5 cm of the 0.32 mm i.d. fused silica capillary column. The ion source was located inside the high vacuum housing of the MS, and only the GC carrier gas (2.3 mL min-1 of helium) was used for plasma generation. Atomic ions were detected in the positive mode. Detection limits were in the low picogram area, and the selectivity to carbon ranged from 8×102 for fluorine to higher than 104 for the other halogens. By introduction of both hydrogen and oxygen as reagent gases, peak tailing was avoided by suppression of analyte reactions with the silica walls of the ion source. Special attention was given to the fluorine-selective detection due to an interfering background species at m/z 19, assumed to be H3O+ originating from the reagent gases. The background signal was minimized by careful control of the power level.

    Notes: ---In order to establish guidelines to help the analyst in the choice of the most suitable octadecyl or octyl bonded phase for the LC analysis of a given partially methylated β-CD sample, analyses of four commercially available dimethyl-β-cyclodextrins (DM-β-CDs) have been carried out on nine octyl (C8) or octadecyl (C18) silica bonded or polymeric bonded phases which differ significantly in their hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties. Chromatograms show that the nature of the packing materials has considerable influence on the resolution of complex mixtures composed of closely related compounds such as partially methylated β-CDs. Among various kinds of C8 and C18 bonded phases, silica based and monomeric phases which present both reinforced hydrophobic and polar interactions showed the best performance. Whatever the complexity of the commercial DM-β-CD, the richest chromatographic fingerprints, which best depict the complexity of the mixture, are obtained with Nucleosil 50-5-C8 column. For the simplest mixtures, Nucleosil 50-5-C8 column with acetonitrile-water (34:66) as mobile phase is the most suitable chromatographic system and leads to the best resolution between heptakis (2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-CD and hexakis (2,6-di-O-methyl)-mono(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)-β-CD (14 OCH3 and 15 OCH3). This chromatographic system might enable an LC-MS coupling for direct identification of the different components in the mixture as well as control of batch to batch variations.

    Notes: ---It was shown that reciprocally unambiguous conformity between GC retention indices (at least for the commonly used standard nonpolar polydimethylsiloxane liquid phases) and boiling points of organic compounds is typical not only within one-dimensional taxonomic groups (homologous series and/or groups of congeners), but also within two- and multidimensional taxonomic groups (with simultaneous variations of some structural fragments). In all cases, this conformity is described by three-parameter non-linear equations log RI = a log Tb + b (n1 + Σ ki ni) + c, where n1 is the serial number of homologue within corresponding series and ni is the number of other structural fragments in the molecules. The coefficients ki in this equation reflect the relative alterations of molecular polarizabilities and may be estimated as ratios of refractions ki = RD(X)/RD(CH2), where X are variable structural fragments within a group of congeners, RD(CH2) = 4.647 cm3mol-1. The approach under discussion permits precalculation of the retention indices of any organic compounds with known boiling points. The precision of proposed method of RI precalculation is comparable with the contemporary level of interlaboratory reproducibility of experimental RI determination with standard nonpolar liquid phases (5-10 i.u.).

    Notes: ---Savings in analysis time in capillary GC have always been an important issue for chromatographers since the introduction of capillary columns by Golay in 1958. In laboratories where gas chromatographic techniques are routinely applied as an analytical technique, every reduction of analysis time, without significant loss of resolution, can be translated into a higher sample throughput and hence reduce the laboratory operating costs. In this contribution, three different approaches for obtaining fast GC separations are investigated. First, a narrow-bore column is used under conventional GC operating conditions. Secondly, the same narrow-bore column is used under typical fast GC conditions. Here, a high oven temperature programming rate is used. The third approach uses a recent new development in GC instrumentation: Flash-2D-GC. Here the column is placed inside a metal tube, which is resistively heated. With this system, a temperature programming rate of 100°/s is possible. The results obtained with each of these three approaches are compared with results obtained on a column with conventional dimensions. This comparison takes retention times as well as plate numbers and resolution into consideration.

    Notes: ---New chiral polysiloxanes have been prepared as stationary phases for gas chromatography, with (S)-(-)-t-leucine-t-butylamide, (S)-(-)-t-leucine-(S)-(-)-1-phenylethylamide, (S)-(-)-t-leucine-(S)-(-)-1-(α-naphthyl)ethylamide, (S)-(-)-t-leucine-(R)-( + )-1-phenylethylamide, and (S)-(-)-t-leucine-(R)-( + )-1-(α-naphthyl)ethylamide as selectors. Immobilization is achieved by radical-induced cross-linking with 1,3,5,7-tetravinyl-1,3,5,7-tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane (V4) and dicumyl peroxide (DCUP) as cross-linking reagents and cured at 170°C. Under these conditions, racemization of (S)-(-)-t-leucine is less than 4.5% (R) for 1 h curing, while for polysiloxanes with the conventional (S)-(-)-valine selectors about 20% of R-enantiomers are formed by racemization. In the presence of 5% (w/w) V4 and 6% of DCUP with regard to the phases, 70-80% immobilization is achieved; without V4, the degree of immobilization is about 50% for both the (S)-(-)-t-leucine and (S)-(-)-valine selectors. As the size of the amide moieties of the selectors increases from t-butyl to 1-(α-naphthyl)ethyl, the degree of immobilization decreases. If the curing time is prolonged to 2 h, the extent of racemization increases. The selectivity factors achieved for amino acid enantiomers and similar pharmaceuticals are generally higher than those obtained with the corresponding non-immobilized Chirasil-Val phases.

    Notes: ---In the current study, an HPLC-FID system using superheated water as the eluent is constructed and further improved. Signal stability during temperature programmed operation was improved by using separate thermostatting of the 50 μm capillary restrictor. Operating the restrictor at 75°C prevented the superheated water from sputtering in the restrictor. Conventional octadecyl-modified silica, thermostable polymeric reversed phase and carbon type HPLC columns were used. The feasibility of the system is demonstrated by the analysis of a variety of compounds such as alcohols and aldehydes. It is shown that increased temperatures decrease elution times and, in addition to this, frequently improve peak shapes and column efficiencies. The separation of lower aldehydes is performed at 175°C with a detection limit in the low μg/ml range. The possibility of temperature programming is demonstrated for the separation of a range of alcohols. Furthermore, it is shown that temperature programming can be used for sample enrichment. Large volume injection with low temperature enrichment resulted in good peak shapes and a significant improvement of the detection limit. In this way, detection limits of 0.2 μg/ml (ppm) could be obtained for the aldehydes studied. Finally, the possibilities of using mobile phase additives as, e.g., buffers were briefly examined.

    Notes: ---A buffer system of borate with charged (carboxymethyl-β-CD) and uncharged (β-CD) cyclodextrins (CDs) was employed in the chiral resolution and separation of propranolol and its selected major metabolites. By appropriate choice of buffer and additive conditions, chiral resolution of all of the compounds studied was achieved in a single analysis, where near baseline resolution was found for the difficult to resolve propranolol-glycol (Pr-glycol). This has not been observed in previous studies of propranolol and its metabolites.

    Notes: ---The use of sorptive extraction/thermal desorption (SE/TD) for the enrichment of amines from aqueous samples was investigated. The amines were derivatized in situ in the water sample by pentafluorobenzoyl chloride and subsequently enriched onto the SE cartridge. Two SE/TD cartridges were used, a commercially available polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) packed cartridge and a similar cartridge prepared with newly synthesized poly(butyl acrylate) (PBA). Blank profiles of PBA were not as good as those obtained from the PDMS phase. A complex chromatogram was obtained using mass spectrometric detection. Fortunately, the use of a nitrogen-phosphorus detector (NPD) resulted in clean blanks. The PBA phase showed superior performance for the enrichment of the polar amine derivatives from water samples compared to the PDMS material. Using a CGC-NPD set-up and only 1 mL samples, detection limits are in the sub-ppb range.

    Notes: ---This paper concerns a number of commercially available coffee-like flavoring preparations, identifying certain dioxolane structures of particular interest. The research was carried out by GC/MS, and spectral characterization was performed of the compounds in question, and especially of the acetals and ketals produced from compounds with carbonyl functions and 1,2-propylene glycol. Some determinations by means of chiral gas chromatography and by Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry (IRMS) have been useful in improving the analytical characterization of certain dioxolanes.

    Notes: ---Ligand mobility of silica-based HPLC stationary phases modified by various surface coverages of acridine-9-carboxy(N-aminoethylaminopropyl)amide ligands was investigated by fluorescence spectroscopy, time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy measurements, as well as solid-state 13C-CP/MAS- and 1H-MAS-NMR spectroscopy. Rotational correlation times, τR, of the bound acridine fluorophore obtained from fluorescence anisotropy measurements are significantly longer in the bound phase, than in solution. Also, in time-resolved experiments anisotropies do not decay to zero. These results are interpreted in terms of wobble-in-cone ligand motion. The mobility of the fluorophore in the presence of liquid phase correlates strongly with the solubility of the model compound acridine-9-carboxy-n-butylamide in the same solvent. In the good solvent acetonitrile τR = 3.2 ns is found, whereas in methanol, τR 〉 80 ns is obtained. NMR measurements of the dry phase yield large linewidths, cross polarization constants, TCH, and spin-lattice relaxation times, T1ρH, shifting around the minimum in the correlation time curve. Both fluorescence and NMR data indicate medium to low ligand mobility. No difference in the mobilities of alkyl spacer and aromatic group is observed, probably due to the rigidity of the amide group.

    Notes: ---Elution of a commercial sample of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in a reversed-phase (RP) HPLC system at room temperature gives a distorted peak. If a shallow gradient is used during elution a split peak is observed. The nature of the several parts of this multiple peak is studied using sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), size-exclusion chromatography (SEC), amino acid analysis, re-elution in RP-HPLC of collected fractions, capillary electrophoresis (CE), and matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS). This study demonstrates that the split peak of BSA observed in these chromatographic conditions is due to the monomer, dimer and other aggregates existing in the commercial sample of the BSA used. Moreover, it is proved that typical RP-chromatographic conditions do not cause aggregation of BSA.

    Notes: ---Negative ionization electrospray liquid chromatography mass spectrometry was developed for the simultaneous determination of all nine haloacetic acids containing bromine and chlorine. Haloacetic acids were separated on a crosslinked polystyrene resin column using 3% acetic acid dissolved in acetonitrile:water (20:80) as mobile phase. The precision of this method varied from ±2.2 to ±7.1% for nine haloacetic acids. In addition, quantitative results obtained with spiked water samples at three different concentrations are described. The limit of detection of the proposed method using 200 mL of water samples was between 0.003 and 0.070 μg/L. This method was successfully applied to the trace determination of haloacetic acids in waste water, river water, and seawater.

    Notes: ---Two different gas chromatographic detectors, the helium ionization detector (HID) and the more commonly used flame ionization detector (FID), were used in parallel to compare their responses to a number of organic compounds. Atmospherically important oxygenated species were analyzed, as well as hydrocarbons and chlorinated and sulfur containing organics. The HID exhibited the better response to all compounds investigated, most notably to formaldehyde and higher oxygenates. A gas chromatographic system was developed to trap and analyze atmospheric organic compounds with HID detection. This required careful choice of the adsorbent material and removal of inorganic components (namely nitrogen and oxygen) before analysis. Real air samples were then taken and analyzed qualitatively for a range of olefinic and aromatic compounds.

    Notes: ---Available and total niacin content in lentils and faba beans have been analyzed by capillary electrophoresis (CE), and the results compared with those obtained by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Acidic and enzymatic hydrolysis have been carried out for available niacin determination, and an alkaline extraction performed for total niacin. The extracts were subsequently purified using a strong anion exchanger resin. Precise conditions for purification had to be worked out for each one of the two analytical methods (HPLC and CE). The HPLC analysis for available and total niacin was carried out in an ion-pair reverse phase column with UV detection at 261 nm. For the CE separation, the following conditions were employed: a 20 mM sodium tetraborate; 15 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate and 20% isopropyl alcohol solution as separation buffer; 30 kV and 25 or 30°C. Separation was carried out in a 70 cm effective length × 75 μm i.d. fused-silica capillary using on-column UV detection at 254 nm. The results obtained by CE for lentils and faba beans were similar to those obtained by HPLC.

    Notes: ---An optimization procedure is presented for group-type analysis of diesel fuel by supercritical fluid chromatography using packed silica column and a mixed mobile phase. A set of five responses, four values of resolution of a performance mixture and analysis time, was modeled using a Doehlert matrix for experimental design. Optimized experimental conditions for the five responses were obtained from a response surfaces optimization, taking into account various constraints on SF6 content in mobile phase and analysis time. The predicted and experimental resolutions were in good agreement for the different optimized conditions and one of them was selected to for application to a given diesel fuel for comparison with the results obtained by SFC using pure CO2 and by HPLC. The conditions found in this study provide an alternative method for the determination of mono-, di-, and polyaromatic compounds in middle distillates.

    Notes: ---The enantiomeric distributions of linalool and linalyl acetate in various natural products are measured by enantioselective gas chromatography on alkyl-substituted cyclodextrins. Different plant cultivars were investigated by four extraction processes: steam distillation, solvent extraction, supercritical fluid extraction, and headspace analysis. Careful attention must be paid to linalool which undergoes partial racemization under certain processing conditions. In most cases, enantiomeric distribution is a powerful tool for authenticity testing.

    Notes: ---Capillary Electrochromatography (CEC) offers a rapid, economical, and efficient means for resolving nonionic compounds in the reversed phase mode on octadecylsilane (ODS) columns. A CEC optimization on a Hypersil ODS capillary column was employed to identify a suitable mobile phase for the pressure-driven (reversed phase ODS) separation of the anti-inflammatory 2-phenylmethyl-1-naphthol (DUP 654), and its related substances. The proportions of mobile phase modifiers methanol, acetonitrile, and water as well as pH were employed as variables in a stacked mixture design. Comparable response surface profiles were obtained for the CEC separations at pH 4 and pH 8. However, subtle differences were evident in the quality of separations obtained in the liquid chromatographic (LC) mode when using a specially-prepared column packed with exactly the same stationary phase as used in the CEC experiments. A mapping of the response surface for separations on a commercially available Hypersil ODS LC column revealed obvious differences. The differences indicate that the transfer of ODS based separation methods between CEC and LC involves more than simply transferring the conditions from one mode to the other.

    Notes: ---One way of collecting extracted analytes after a supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) is to pass the depressurized fluid through a trap composed of a solid adsorbent. The influence of the adsorbent nature on the trap efficiency has been studied. First, the retention factors of each compound of a polarity test mix (tetracosane, naphthalene, fluoranthene, acetophenone, N,N-dimethylaniline, 2-naphthol, decanoic acid) have been determined on five high specific area (greater than 800 m2/g) polymeric phases by supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC). The comparison of this values with those obtained on octadecyl silica (ODS) showed that polymeric phases have the greatest retention power. After that, the efficiency of a solid trap filled with the greatest retention power polymeric adsorbent was evaluated by using pure carbon dioxide and 2.5%, 5%, 10%, and 20% methanol-modified carbon dioxide. As expected, this trap permitted a quantitative collection of all the former compounds even when a content as high as 10% of methanol was implemented. A solid trap filled with ODS adsorbent allowed quantitative collection of all the compounds only at a methanol content lower than 2.5%.

    Notes: ---Silver-coated capillaries were used for direct sample injection in multiplexed capillary electrophoresis. The absence of an additional electrode simplifies mechanical alignment, reduces contamination, and decreases the amount of sample needed. Capillaries were coated by a silver paint which is a suspension of silver particles in an organic solvent. To provide electrical contact, the upper part of the capillary and a platinum wire were wound together by a copper wire. Electrical resistance from the platinum wire to the tip of the capillary was small enough (7 ω to 50 ω) to inject large amounts of DNA samples. Electrokinetic injection from eight separate sample vials to eight capillaries was demonstrated for DNA sequencing by multiplexed capillary electrophoresis. Signal-to-noise ratio and resolution were good enough to call up to 350 base pairs.

    Notes: A general model is presented for the prediction of experimental conditions for the isolation of organic compounds from aqueous solution by solid-phase extraction. The solvation parameter model is used to predict the variation of retention as a function of solvent composition from characteristic solute descriptors and combined with a frontal analysis model to adjust the predicted breakthrough volumes to account for the influence of the small number of theoretical plates characteristic of sorbent cartridges. System maps are used to determine breakthrough volumes for sample processing, the composition and volume of wash solvents for matrix simplification, and the composition and volume of eluting solvents. System maps are provided for an octadecylsiloxane-bonded silica sorbent with methanol and acetonitrile as cosolvents with water. These maps are used to calculate the experimental conditions for the isolation of estrogens from urine and the model validated by experimental verification of the model predictions. The proposed approach provides a simple theoretical framework for computer-aided method development in solid-phase extraction.

    Notes: ---Linear solvation energy relationships (LSERs) were used to delineate which specific intermolecular interactions are responsible for changes in retention for a variety of well characterized analytes when acidic and basic additives were used in reversed phase HPLC. The effects of trifluoroacetic acid, triethylamine and a combination of trifluoroacetic acid and triethylamine on the LSERs were compared to those observed in the absence of additives. These effects were examined using four different mobile phase modifiers and five different stationary phases. Trifluoroacetic acid alone and in combination with triethylamine produced LSER regression coefficients nearly identical to those obtained with no additive present in the mobile phase. Triethylamine alone produced different LSER regression coefficients from the other systems unless the mobile phase contained trifluoroethanol as the mobile phase modifier, or the stationary phase consisted of a polymeric support.

    Notes: ---This study represents the first application of Ag(I) charge transfer complexation in nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis. This method applies the principles of argentation chromatography to nonaqueous electrophoretic separations and is termed “nonaqueous argentation electrophoresis”. Since the separations are performed in 100% nonaqueous media, the advantages of nonaqueous solvents, such as enhanced solubility and flexibility in selectivity enhancement, compared to an aqueous or mixed hydroorganic solvent, are realized. A variety of compounds were separated. Qualitatively, the separation of eleven sulfonamides in 100% acetonitrile is shown to improve greatly upon the addition of Ag(I). These results also show that nonaqueous argentation electrophoresis provides fast, well-resolved separations of compounds, such as N-containing heterocyclics, that can selectively complex with Ag(I). Migration data and separation selectivities of these compounds by nonaqueous argentation electrophoresis were compared to previous aqueous argentation electrophoresis results. Selectivities were found to be significantly different for the two separation media. Ag(I) complexation provides an effective means of manipulating selectivity in nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis.

    Notes: ---The performance of a fused silica column coated with 50% phenyl-/50% dimethyl-polysiloxane, characterized by a high thermal stability, was evaluated for the gas chromatographic determination of cholesterol oxidation products. A silylated mixture of eighteen oxysterol standards (0.1 mg/ml of each compound) was injected into the gas chromatographic system. The temperature was programmed from 230 to 260°C at 2.5°/min and then to 290°C at 1°/min; the injector and detector temperatures were set at 325°C, and the gas linear velocity was 22.8 cm/s. The column gave a fast (15 min) and satisfactory resolution of the main cholesterol oxides. Good separation of the hydroxy from the epoxy derivatives was achieved.The suitability of the method for the determination of oxysterols in food matrices was successfully tested on a saponified lipid extract from egg yolk powder, previously enriched and purified by NH2 solid phase extraction.

    Notes: ---Hold-up times and peak widths have been measured in long fused silica GC capillary columns at high temperature with helium as the carrier gas. The results lead to the conclusion that the helium permeates through the column walls. The conventional Poiseuille theory of carrier gas flow has been extended to include this phenomenon. The resulting “loss modified Poiseuille” model, which uses literature values for the permeability of fused silica to helium, has been used to simulate the observed behavior. Good agreement between simulation and experiment validates the model. Simulations have been used to explore the effect of column permeability on hold-up times, peak widths, and velocity profiles over a broad range of column geometries.

    Notes: ---Hydroxytyrosol (HTy) is a potent natural antioxidant found in olive oil and in mill waste waters. Although wines are rich in polyphenols, hydroxytyrosol has not been identified in wines so far. We have analyzed ten wines from different grape varieties grown in several Italian regions, using a gas-chromatograph coupled to a mass selective detector (GC-MS). Solid-phase extraction of wine samples was performed on a C18 column, with ethyl acetate used as eluting agent. Eluates were derivatized with bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA) and analyzed by GC-MS using one target and two qualifying ions. The detection limit was 15 pg/μL, with 49% average recovery. Under these experimental conditions hydroxytyrosol was detected in all wines analyzed. Its average concentrations in red and white wines were 4.0 mg/L and 1.9 mg/L, respectively.

    Notes: ---Capillary electrophoresis (CE) was interfaced with a quadrupole mass spectrometer, using pneumatically-assisted electrospray ionization (ESI) in order to analyze Ecstasy and derivatives in urine. The influence of the sheath liquid composition, including the type and the percentage of the organic solvent, as well as the nature of the conductive acid modifier, were examined in order to find optimal coupling conditions. A fractional factorial design was also used to optimize the electrospray experimental parameters, such as the nebulizing gas pressure, the electrospray voltage, the drying gas flow rate, the drying gas temperature, the skimmer voltage, and the sheath liquid flow rate. The separation conditions were optimized in terms of temperature, electrolyte concentration, percentage of organic modifier, as well as capillary type. Finally, the optimal CE-ESI-MS conditions were applied to the analysis of Ecstasy and other related amphetamines in urine samples, following a liquid-liquid extraction procedure.
