    A Refined Gauss-Newton- Mysovskii Theorem. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-12-15
    Description: The present paper contains a generalization of a refinement of the Newton- Mysovskii theorem, recently obtained by the authors, to the case of Gauss-Newton procedures for solving nonlinear least-squares problems with full Jacobians. Invariant sufficient conditions are given that ensure the convergence of the Gauss-Newton iterates towards a solution of the problem, as well as the uniqueness of that solution in an explicitely defined neighborhood. It is shown by a counter- example that the results do not carry over to the rank deficient case.

    Self Adaptive Computation of the Breakdown Voltage of Planar pn-Junctions with Multistep Field Plates. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: The breakdown voltage highly depends on the electric field in the depletion area whose computation is the most time consuming part of the simulation. We present a self adaptive Finite Element Method which reduces dramatically the required computation time compared to usual Finite Difference Methods. A numerical example illustrates the efficiency and reliability of the algorithm.

    An Adaptive Multilevel Approach to Parabolic Equations III. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: Part III of the paper is devoted to the construction of an adaptive FEM solver in two spatial dimensions, which is able to handle the singularly perturbed elliptic problems arising from discretization in time. The problems of error estimation and multilevel iterative solution of the linear systems - both uniformly well behaved with respect to the time step - can be solved simultaneously within the framework of preconditioning. A multilevel nodal basis preconditioner able to handle highly nonuniform meshes is derived. As a numerical example an application of the method to the bioheat-transfer equation is included. {\bf AMS CLASSIFICATION:} 65F10, 65F35, 65M50, 65M60, 65N30.

    Sequential Evaluation of Adjoints and Higher Derivative Vectors by Overloading and Reverse Accumulation. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-09-24
    Description: Most nonlinear computations require the evaluation of first and higher derivatives of vector functions defined by computer programs. It is shown here how vectors of such partial derivatives can be obtained automatically and efficiently if the computer language allows overloading (as is or will be the case for C++, PASCAL-XSC, FORTRAN90, and other modern languages). Here, overloading facilitates the extension of arithmetic operations and univariate functions from real or complex arguments to truncated Taylor-series (or other user- defined types), and it generates instructions for the subsequent evaluation of adjoints. Similar effects can be achieved by precompilation of FORTRAN77 programs. The proposed differentiation algorithm yields gradients and higher derivatives at a small multiple of the run-time and RAM requirement of the original function evaluation program. {\bf Keywords:} Automatic Differentiation, Chain Rule, Overloading, Taylor Coefficients, Gradients, Hessians, Reverse Accumulation, Adjoint Equations. {\bf Abbreviated title:} Automatic Differentiation by Overloading.

    The Treatment of Macromolecular Processes with Chain-Length-Dependent Reaction Coefficients - An Examplefrom Soot Formation. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: The description of chain length distributions in macromolecular reaction kinetics leads to so-called countable systems of differential equations. In particular, when the appearing reaction rate coefficients depend on the chain length of the reacting macromolecules itself, an efficient numerical treatment of these systems is very difficult. Then even the evaluation of the right-hand side of the system can become prohibitively expensive with respect to computing time. In this paper we show how the discrete Galerkin method can be applied to such problems. The existing algorithm CODEX is improved by use of a multiplicative error correction scheme for time discretization and a new type of numerical preprocessing by means of a Gauss summation. Both ideas are exemplary for a wide class of approximation types and are described very briefly here. The new numerical techniques are tested on an example from soot formation, where the coagulation of molecules is modeled in terms of reaction coefficients depending on the surface of the particles and their collision frequency.

    OCCAL: A mixed symbolic- numeric Optimal Control CALculator. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: The numerical solution of optimal control problems by indirect methods (such as multiple shooting or collocation) requires a considerable amount of analytic calculation to establish a numerically tractable system. These analytic calculations, though being rather tedious in realistic examples, are nowadays mostly still done by hand-and thus prone to calculation errors. The paper aims at automating this analytic processing to a reasonable extent by means of a modern symbolic manipulation language (here: REDUCE). In its present stage of development the package OCCAL (mnemotechnically for \underline{O}ptimal \underline{C}ontrol \underline{CAL}culator) permits an interactive use, covering tasks like automatic determination of control and, in case of a singular control, of its order. In simpler problems, the present version of OCCAL automatically produces the full subroutine input for a MULtiple shooting code (MULCON) with adaptive numerical CONtinuation. In more complicate problems where singular sub-arcs may occur or where the sequence of sub-arcs of the optimal trajectory is unclear OCCAL is a significant help in reducing analytic pre-processing. Numerical examples illustrate the performance of OCCAL/MULCON.

    On the Difference Between Real and Complex Arrangements. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: If $B$ is an arrangement of linear complex Hyperplanes in $C^d$, then the following can be constructed from knowledge of its intersection lattice: (a) the cohomology groups of the complement [Br], (b) the cohomology algebra of the complement [OS], (c) the fundamental group of the complement, if $d\le2$, (d) the singularity link up to homeomorphism, if $d\le3$, (e) the singularity link up to homotopy type [ZZ]. If $B'$ is, more generally, a 2-arrangement in $ R^{2d}$ (an arrangement of real subspaces of codimension 2 with even-dimensional intersections), then the intersection lattice still determines (a) the cohomology groups of the complement [GM] and (e) the homotopy type of the singularity link [ZZ]. We show, however, that for 2-arrangements the data (b), (c) and (d) are not determined by the intersection lattice. They require the knowledge of extra information on sign patterns, which can be computed as determinants of linear relations, or (equivalently) as linking coefficients in the sense of knot theory.

    Homotopy Types of Subspace Arrangements via Diagrams of Spaces. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: We prove combinatorial formulas for the homotopy type of the union of the subspaces in an (affine, compactified affine, spherical or projective) subspace arrangement. From these formulas we derive results of Goresky & MacPherson on the homology of the arrangement and the cohomology of its complement. The union of an arrangement can be interpreted as the direct limit of a diagram of spaces over the intersection poset. A closely related space is obtained by taking the homotopy direct limit of this diagram. Our method consists in constructing a combinatorial model diagram over the same poset, whose homotopy limit can be compared to the original one by usual homotopy comparison results for diagrams of spaces.

    An Adaptive Multilevel Approach to Parabolic Equations in Two Space Dimensions. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: A new adaptive multilevel approach for linear partial differential equations is presented, which is able to handle complicated space geometries, discontinuous coefficients, inconsistent initial data. Discretization in time first (Rothe's method) with order and stepsize control is perturbed by an adaptive finite element discretization of the elliptic subproblems, whose errors are controlled independently. Thus the high standards of solving adaptively ordinary differential equations and elliptic boundary value problems are combined. A theory of time discretization in Hilbert space is developed which yields to an optimal variable order method based on a multiplicative error correction. The problem of an efficient solution of the singularly perturbed elliptic subproblems and the problem of error estimation for them can be uniquely solved within the framework of preconditioning. A Multilevel nodal basis preconditioner is derived, which allows the use of highly nonuniform triangulations. Implementation issues are discussed in detail. Numerous numerical examples in one and two space dimensions clearly show the significant perspectives opened by the new algorithmic approach. Finally an application of the method is given in the area of hyperthermia, a recent clinical method for cancer therapy.

    Die Ausbreitung von HIV/AIDS in Ballungsgebieten. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-03-06
    Description: The rapidly increasing number of AIDS cases requires a realistic estimation of the future development of the HIV/AIDS disease. For that purpose we develop a large system of coupled nonlinear differential equations describing simultaneously the dynamics of the development of the disease, the population size, the gender and age structure. A set of 1650 coupled equations are linked by balanced parameters. The balancing procedure is described by a set of (formally) 2,178,000 additional algebraic conditions. As the considered system is stiff, it requires new special extrapolation methods combined with techniquees of dynamical sparsing for the solution of sparsely filled systems. According to our simulations we expect 19,0,000 deaths caused by AIDS in the Federal Republic of Germany (former territories) in the year 2000. Such an epidemical spread would tie up about 4-7 percent of the actual health care workers.

    An Adaptive Discontinuous Finite Element Method for the Transport Equation. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: In this paper we introduce a discontinuous finite element method. In our approach, it is possible to combine the advantages of finite element and finite difference methods. The main ingredients are numerical flux approximation and local orthogonal basis functions. The scheme is defined on arbitrary triangulations and can be easily extended to nonlinear problems. Two different error indicators are derived. Especially the second one is closely connected to our approach and able to handle arbitrary variing flow directions. Numerical results are given for boundary value problems in two dimensions. They demonstrate the performance of the scheme, combined with the two error indicators. {\bf Key words:} neutron transport equation, discontinuous finite element, adaptive grid refinement. {\bf Subject classifications:} AMS(MOS) 65N30, 65M15.

    A Sharpened Condition Number Estimate for the BPX Preconditioner of Elliptic Finite Element Problems on Highly Nonuniform Triangulations. (1991)

This is achieved by viewing the computational available version of the BPX preconditioner as an abstract additive Schwarz method with exact solvers. {\bf AMS CLASSIFICATION:} 65F10, 65F35, 65N20, 65N30.

    Extension Spaces of Oriented Matriods. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: We study the space of all extensions of a real hyperplane arrangement by a new pseudo- hyperplane, and, more generally, of an oriented matroid by a new element. The question whether this space has the homotopy type of a sphere is a special case of the "Generalized Baues Problem" of Billera, Kapranov & Sturmfels, via the Bohne-Dress Theorem on zonotopal tilings. We prove that the extension space is spherical for the class of strongly euclidean oriented matroids. This class includes the alternating matroids and all oriented matroids of rank at most 3 or of corank at most 2. In general it is not even known whether the extension space is connected. We show that the subspace of realizable extensions is always connected but not necessarily spherical.

    Multilevel Preconditioned CG-Iterations for Variational Inequalities. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: We consider such variational inequalities which either describe obstacle problems or result from an implicit time discretization of moving boundary problems of two phase Stefan type. Based on a discretization in space by means of continuous, piecewise linear finite elements with respect to a nested hierarchy of triangulations, in both cases we use iterative processes consisting of inner and outer iterations. The outer iterations are either active set strategies or generalized Newton methods while the inner iterations are preconditioned cg- iterations with multilevel preconditioners.

    Discretization of Homoclinic Orbits, Rapid Forcing and "Invisible" Chaos. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: One-step discretizations of order $p$ and step size $\varepsilon$ of ordinary differential equations can be viewed as time-$\varepsilon$ maps of \begin{displaymath} \dot{x} (t) = f(\lambda ,x(t)) + \varepsilon^p g(\varepsilon,\lambda,t/\varepsilon,x(t)), x \in R^N,\lambda \in R, \end{displaymath} where $g$ has period $\varepsilon$ in $t$. This is a rapidly forced nonautonomous system. We study the behavior of a homoclinit orbit $\Gamma$ for $\varepsilon = 0, \lambda =0$, under discretization. Under generic assumptions we show that $\Gamma$ becomes transverse for positive $\in$. The transversality effects are estimated from above to be exponentially small in $\in$. For example, the length $l(\varepsilon$) of the parameter interval of $\lambda$ for which $\Gamma$ persists can be estimated by \begin{displaymath} l(\varepsilon)\le Cexp(-2\pi\eta/\varepsilon), \end{displaymath} where $C,\eta$ are positive constants. The coefficient $\eta$ is related to the minimal distance from the real axis of the poles of $\Gamma(t)$ in the complex time domain. Likewise, the region where complicated, "chaotic" dynamics prevail is estimated to be exponentially small, provided $x \in R^2$ and the saddle quantity of the associated equilibrium is nonzero. Our results are visualized by high precision numerical experiments. The experiments show that, due to exponential smallness, homoclinic transversality becomes pratically invisible under normal circumstances, already for only moderately small step size. {\bf Keywords:} Homoclinic orbit, ordinary differential equations, discretization, transversality, averaging, exponential smallness, chaos. {\bf Subject Classifications:} (AMS): 34C15, 34C35, 58F14, 65L60

    Adaptive Multilevel - Methods for Obstacle Problems. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: We consider the discretization of obstacle problems for the Laplacian by piecewise linear finite elements. Assuming that the discrete problems are reduced to a sequence of linear problems by suitable active set strategies, the linear problems are solved iteratively by preconditioned c-g iterations. The proposed preconditioners are treated theoretically as abstract additive Schwarz methods and are implemented as truncated hierarchical basis preconditioners. To allow for local mesh refinement we derive semi-local and local a posteriori error estimates, providing lower and upper estimates for the discretization error. The theoretical results are illustrated by numerical computations.

    Adaptive Treatment of Polyreactions in Weighted Sequence Spaces. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: Countable systems of ordinary differential equations appear frequently in chemistry, physics, biology and statistics. They can be considered as ordinary differential equations in sequence spaces. In this work, a fully adaptive algorithm for the computational treatment of such systems is developed. The method is based on a time discretization of an abstract Cauchy problem in Hilbert space and a discrete Galerkin approach for the discretization of the arising stationary subproblems. The Galerkin method uses orthogonal functions of a discrete variable, which are generated by certain weight functions. A theory of countable systems in the associated weighted sequence spaces is developed as well as a theory of the Galerkin method. The Galerkin equations are solved adaptively either by use of analytical properties of the orthogonal functions or by an appropriate numerical summation. The resulting algorithm CODEX is applied to examples of technological interest, in particular from polymer chemistry.

    Higher Bruhat Orders and Cyclic Hyperplane Arrangements. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: We study the higher Bruhat orders $B(n,k)$ of Manin & Schechtman [MaS] and - characterize them in terms of inversion sets, - identify them with the posets $U(C^{n+1,r},n+1)$ of uniform extensions of the alternating oriented matroids $C^{n,r}$ for $r:=n-k$ (that is, with the extensions of a cyclic hyperplane arrangement by a new oriented pseudoplane), - show that $B(n,k)$ is a lattice for $k =1$ and for $r\le 3$, but not in general, - show that $B(n,k)$ is ordered by inclusion of inversion sets for $k=1$ and for $r\le 4$. However, $B(8,3)$ is not ordered by inclusion. This implies that the partial order $B_\subseteq (n,k)$ defined by inclusion of inversion sets differs from $B(n,k)$ in general. We show that the proper part of $B_\subseteq (n,k)$ is homotopy equivalent to $S^{r-2}$. Consequently, - $B(n,k)\simeq S^{r-2}$ for $k=1$ and for $r\le 4$. In contrast to this, we find that the uniform extension poset of an affine hyperplane arrangement is in general not graded and not a lattice even for $r=3$, and that the proper part is not always homotopy equivalent to $S^{r(M)-2}$.

    Description: A high resolution Godunov-type method is developed and applied to a two-dimensional version of the Burgers equation. On one-dimensional testproblems the scheme is second order accurate for smooth flow and resolves discontinuities sharply. On two-dimensional problems, however, large numerical oscillations are introduced when discontinuities traveling obliquely to the grid directions are present. These oscillations are caused by a Strang- type operator splitting, and cannot be eliminated using flux limiters or small timesteps. {\bf Keywords:} High resolution methods, Godunovs method, operator splitting, complex Burgers equation. {\bf AMS:} 35: A40, L45, L60, L65, L, 67. 65: M05, M10.

    Supercomputing During the German Reunification. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: The success of the German Reunification requires a unique migration from the traditional Eastern Block system to a modern free society. The successful migration must include a shift from a low state of the art in technology to the high level of science and technology present in the Western Community. The role of supercomputing in this transition will include leading the process of organizational change in research and development. The paper contains a short overview on the current state of this evolution, on the currently used political and administrative tools to keep this evolution on track, and on the influence on the Konrad-Zuse-Zentrum, which is, as a Berlin institution, in the geographical and cultural center of this transformation.

    Description: Mit zunehmender Dezentralisierung im Bereich des Wissenschaftlichen Rechnens steigt auch der Bedarf an Softwarequellen qualitativ hochwertiger mathematischer Algorithmen. Für den Software- und Informationsaustausch wird die Einrichtung öffentlicher, elektronischer Softwarebibliotheken vorgeschlagen. Am Beispiel der eLib des ZIB werden die notwendigen technischen Konzepte, die u.a. auch in den heutigen Gegebenheiten der technischen Kommunikation begründet sind, diskutiert. Die eLib ist fenster- und menüorientiert aufgebaut und folglich im Dialog sehr einfach zu benutzen. Sie kann aber auch mit ihrer Kommandosprache allein auf dem Wege über elektronische Post abgefragt werden. Über die eLib sind, nach dem Verbund mit den Netzbibliotheken NetLib und Reduce-NetLib jetzt etwa 6000 mathematische Programme und allgemeine Dokumente verfügbar. Das Dienstleistungsangebot der eLib setzt Beiträge aus einer aktiven Benutzergemeinschaft voraus. Es besteht die Hoffnung, daß durch den öffentlichen Softwareaustausch sich Entwickler und Anwender wechselseitig in ihrer Arbeit befruchten.

    An Adaptive Approach to the Numerical Solution of Fresnel's Wave Equation. (1991)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-07-07
    Description: An adaptive approach to the numerical solution of the wave propagation in integrated optics devices with 1D cross sections is described. First, Fresnel's approximation of the exact wave equation resulting from Maxwell's equations is considered. A criterion to estimate the validity of this approximation is derived. Fresnel's wave equation being formally equivalent to Schroedinger's equation uniquely defines an initial-boundary-value problem, which is solved numerically by a stepwise calculation of the propagating field. Discretization in longitudinal direction first with stepsize control leads to a stationary subproblem for the transversal field distribution, which is then handled by an adaptive finite element method. Thus full adaptivity of the algorithm is realized. The numerical examples are concentrated on taper structures playing an essential role in integrated optics devices for telecommunication systems.

    Variation between strains of the flour beetle Tribolium castaneum in relative performance on five flours (1991)

    Notes: Abstract When populations are exposed to different environments, evolutionary processes can lead either to genetically differentiated strains or to the appearance of increased generalism at the individual level. For evolution to occur, genetic variability in performance in different environments is required. Here, intraspecific genetic variation across environments was estimated in the flour beetle Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) by comparing the responses of two strains of T. castaneum to different flour types. Replicated groups from each strain were allowed to develop on either the standard whole wheat medium or on one of four novel flours (wheat, rice, corn and oat). In several of the novel flours, clear differences in mean development time or population size of one or both strains were seen relative to performance in the standard medium. Moreover, the strains differed significantly in their phenotypic responses to the flours. One strain did particularly poorly on oat flour. Reduced oviposition, reduced larval survivorship and increased larval cannibalism were examined as possible causes of the low productivity on oat flour. These three factors accounted for about 70% of the reduction in population size when this strain oviposited and developed in oat flour. The difference between these two outbred strains in response to these five flours suggests that genetic variation in resource use is present within T. castaneum and may also be present within strains and natural populations in grain storage facilities. Such variation would permit an evolutionary response to selection in multiple environments (flours). This process has agricultural implications when several types of grain are stored in a single location because it could eventually lead to the evolution of highly generalized populations of T. castaneum, an important pest of stored products.

    Molecular analysis of iron transport in plant growth-promotingPseudomonas putida WCS358 (1991)

    Notes: Summary Root-colonizingPseudomonas putida WCS358 enhances growth of potato in part by producing under iron-limiting conditions a yellow-green, fluorescent siderophore designated pseudobactin 358. This siderophore efficiently complexes iron(III) in the rhizosphere, making it less available to certain endemic microorganisms, including phytopathogens, thus inhibiting their growth. At least 15 genes distributed over five gene clusters are required for the biosynthesis of pseudobactin 358. High-affinity iron(III) transport in strain WCS358 is initiated by an 86-kDa outer membrane receptor protein (PupA) which appears to be specific for ferric pseudobactin 358. PupA shares strong similarity with TonB-dependent receptor proteins ofEscherichia coli, which suggests a TonB-like protein in strain WCS358 is required for iron(III) transport. Strain WCS358 possesses a second uptake system for ferric pseudobactin 358 and structurally diverse ferric siderophores produced by other microorganisms. A second receptor gene (pupB) responsible for iron transport from pseudobactin BN7 or pseudobactin BN8 has been identified. The production of this and certain other ferric siderophore receptor proteins requires that strain WCS358 be grown in the presence of these siderophores. An apparent regulatory gene required for the expression ofpupB is located adjacent topupB. Two positive regulatory genes have been identified which can independently activate, under low-iron(III) conditions, transcription of genes coding for the biosynthesis of pseudobactin 358.

    Notes: Summary Immunoglobulin heavy chain (G1m, G2m, G3m, A2m) and kappa light chain (Km) allotype and phenotype frequencies of 323 central European Caucasian patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) were examined and correlated with various genetic, serologic and clinical markers of SLE. No significant associations were found between immunoglobulin allotypes or phenotypes and all 20 parameters tested (nephritis, vasculitis, arthralgias, photosensitivity, discoid lesions, central nervous system disease, Raynaud's phenomenon, sex, anti-Ro, anti-La, anti-nRNP, HLA-DR1-DR7, HLA phenotypes B8-DR3, B7-DR2). It could therefore be assumed that Gm, A2m and Km allotypes were not associated with HLA-antigens and had no influence on the serologic and clinical expression of SLE.

    Notes: Summary Patients with Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus and a strong family history of the disease may represent a sub-group where genetic factors play a pree-minent role in transmission of the disease. A defect in the liver/islet cell glucose transporter (GluT 2) could explain many of the pathophysiological features of the disease. In order to test the hypothesis that genetic variation at the GluT 2 locus contributes genetic susceptibility to Type 2 diabetes, 60 unrelated Caucasian diabetic patients with at least one affected sibling were genotyped for a Taq 1 restriction fragment length polymorphism marker. Hybridisation with a cDNA GluT 2 probe identified two alleles of sizes 13 kilobase (T1) and 19 kilobase (T2). The allele frequencies in the diabetic group with a family history were significantly different from those in a racially-matched control population of 122 subjects with no personal or family history of the disease (diabetic patients T1=0.96, T2=0.04, control subjects T1=0.89, T2=0.11, p〈 0.03). However, when the study was repeated with 54 diabetic patients with indeterminate family history, statistical significance was not reached although the allele frequencies showed a similar trend. The findings of this study support the hypothesis that a genetic variant of the liver/islet cell glucose transporter may contribute to familial susceptibility in Type 2 diabetes.

    Shared genetic susceptibility of Type 1 (insulin-dependent) and Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus: contributions of HLA and haptoglobin (1991)

    Notes: Summary Epidemiologic data suggest that having a parent with Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus increases the risk for Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes in siblings of a Type 1 diabetes proband. This increase in risk is consistent with a shared genetic susceptibility between Type 1 diabetes and Type 2 diabetes. We contrast genetic risk factors in three sets of families, consisting of (1) a single Type 1 diabetic child (proband) and non-diabetic parents, (2) multiple Type 1 diabetic siblings and non-diabetic parents, and (3) at least one Type 1 diabetic child and at least one Type 2 diabetic parent. Previous studies have demonstrated that HLA region genes, which elevate the risk in Type 1 diabetes, have no significant effect with respect to the risk for developing Type 2 diabetes. An earlier report cited a contribution by the haptoglobin locus to genetic susceptibility for Type 2 diabetes. We provide evidence that a high risk HLA antigen (HLA-DR3) is decreased to a greater extent in Type 1 patients with a Type 2 parent than in Type 1 patients in which the parents are not diabetic. The role of HLA-DR4 is maintained in these families, with an unexpectedly significant increased rate of transmission of the HLA-DR4 allele from Type 2 parent to Type 1 offspring. The role of haptoglobin in these families does not appear to be important, either with respect to association with diabetes or with respect to linkage with a secondary susceptibility locus. These results indicate that families with a Type 2 parent and Type 1 child, heavily determined by HLA-DR4 linked factors, may represent a homogeneous subset of diabetes susceptibility.

    Notes: Summary Life-history traits of 101 clones from two populations of Daphnia magna were measured under controlled environmental conditions in the laboratory. Some individuals had four juvenile instars, others had five. This depended on their length at birth and on the population they came from. Females in the group with five juvenile instars were smaller at birth but larger and older at maturity than those with four juvenile instars. Within groups of females with equal numbers of preadult instars (instar groups) age and size at maturity increased with size at birth. This relationship differed significantly among instar groups for both age and size at maturity. Significant differences in age and size at maturity between two populations became non-significant when size at birth was used as a covariable in AN-COVA. Within populations, size at birth depended on the clone and on the parity of the clutch. First-clutch offspring were considerably smaller than those from later clutches. The results suggest that variability in life-history traits is common within and between clones, but that most of this variation can be accounted for by size at birth and the number of pre-adult instars.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of non-competitive (MK-801, phencyclidine, and ketamine) and competitive (CGP 39551, CGS 19755, and NPC 12626) N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists on locomotor activity in inbred CBA and C57, and in outbred NMRI mice were examined. Administration of the non-competitive NMDA antagonists produced a dose-dependent increase in well-coordinated locomotor activity at lower doses, followed by a bizarre behavioral syndrome (head weaving, body rolling, rotations, ataxia) after higher doses. The pharmacological profile of the competitive antagonists CGP 39551, CGS 19755, and NPC 12626 was more complex. CGP 39551 dose-dependently inhibited locomotor activity, whereas CGS 19755 and NPC 12626 displayed a biphasic action, that is low doses inhibited locomotor activity, whereas higher doses produced mild behavioral stimulation. The behavioral effects of NMDA antagonists appear to be genetically determined, since CBA animals were most sensitive to both noncompetitive and competitive antagonists, followed by NMRI and C57 animals. The differential effects of NMDA antagonists in various strains of mice suggest that the observed behavioral differences may be due to genetic differences in the NMDA/glutamate receptor channel complex.

    Notes: Abstract Heterologous gene probes derived from cfxLp and cfxPp genes of Alcaligenes eutrophus H16 revealed the presence of structural genes encoding ribulosebisphosphate carboxylase (Rubisco) and phosphoribulokinase (PRK) on the genome of carboxydotrophic bacteria. The two genes were found to be rather conserved. In Pseudomonas carboxydovorans OM5 cfx genes reside on the plasmid pHCG3 and the chromosome as well, indicating that they are duplicated. Also in all plasmidharboring carboxydotrophic bacteria cfxL and cfxP structural genes were found to be plasmid-coded. Our results extend the list of carboxydotrophy structural genes residing on the plasmid pHCG3 and strongly support the idea that the components essential for the chemolithoautotrophic utilization of CO by Pseudomonas carboxydovorans OM5 are plasmid-coded. A cfxL gene probe from Rhodospirillum rubrum did not detectably hybridize with DNA from any of the carboxydotrophic bacteria examined.

    Evidence that genetic differences in habituation and GABAergic mechanisms may be related to sensitivity to ethanol and development of ethanol tolerance in mice (1991)

    Notes: Abstract Habituation to a test environment following daily exposure for 5 days was examined in three genetically different strains of mice. C57 animals showed significant habituation to the new environment already on the second day. The habituation of NMRI mice was significant on the third day, whereas CBA mice showed no habituation at all during the experimental period. There was no difference between the animal strains in learning capacity in a passive avoidance test, but CBA mice displayed a significant increase in latency in their performance. When tested for sensitivity to the convulsant actions of GABAergic antagonists, picrotoxin produced seizures at lower doses in CBA as compared to NMRI and C57 mice, whereas there was no difference between the strains in the seizure activity produced by the specific GABA receptor antagonist bicuculline. When the animals were tested for sensitivity to ethanol in a horizontal wire test, ethanol (2 g/kg, IP) produced muscle relaxation in CBA mice whereas the performance of NMRI and C57 was not affected. A large dose of ethanol (4 g/kg, IP) produced a significantly longer sleeping time in CBA mice as compared to NMRI and C57 animals. Ethanol-produced hypothermia was, however, similar in all animals. Environment-dependent development of tolerance to ethanol following daily injections of ethanol for 4 days was examined. C57 mice showed the most rapid development of tolerance towards ethanol's hypnotic actions, whereas CBA mice showed no tolerance to this effect of ethanol. No difference between the strains to the development of tolerance to ethanol's hypothermic effects was observed. The present findings indicate that sensitivity to ethanol and ethanol tolerance are complex phenomena which cannot be adequately characterized by measuring only one single functional response to ethanol. The possibility that a genetically determined perturbation in the functions of the GABA receptor-coupled chloride channel, noted as variable sensitivity to picrotoxin, may be of importance for the observed disturbance in habituation to a new environment, for the different sensitivity to ethanol, and for the different rate of development of ethanol tolerance is discussed.

All patients fulfilled the criteria for schizophrenia according to Taylor et al., 50 according to Carpenter, 41 according to RDC, and 31 of the 51 according to DSM-III and DSM-III-R. The hypothesis that the patients in the Swedish family complex differ from other phenotypes of schizophrenia must be refuted based on the data of the present study.

    Notes: Summary Genetic improvement in growth of poultry has traditionally proceeded via selection for body weight at a fixed age. Due to increased maintenance costs and reproductive problems of adult broiler breeders, the potential for genetic manipulation of the growth curve has been receiving increased interest. Research of both male and female progeny of a three-way diallel cross was used to investigate the inheritance of growth curve parameters. The Laird form of the Gompertz equation was used to determine growth curve parameters, and was suited to the juvenile growth data frequently collected from meat-type chickens. Growth rate exhibited significant heterosis due to both autosomes and the sex chromosomes. Age at inflection point also exhibited significant average heterosis, though only among females. Growth rate was also influenced by average line effects, as was age at inflection point. Maternal effects had no influence on growth curve parameters, while additive sex linkage was observed for growth rate. Phenotypic and genetic correlations were calculated among the growth curve parameters and suggest that specific breeding programs could alter the growth trajectory of the contemporary broiler chicken. Moderate heritabilities were observed for the growth curve parameters and support the hypothesis that the growth curve could be altered via genetic manipulation of early postnatal growth, especially during the first 14 days post-hatch.

A factor inducing male sterility was found in the cytoplasms or rye cv Schlägler alt and rye cv Norddeutscher Champagner. Monogenic inheritance was observed in linkage tests. Using primary trisomies of rye cv Esto, the nuclear gene ms1 was found to be located on chromosome 4R. Modifying genes, probably masked in normal cytoplasm but expressed in male-sterility-inducing cytoplasm together with gene ms1, were located on chromosomes 3R (ms2) and 6R (ms3). Mono-, di-, and trigenic inheritance types were found in backcross progenies of trisomies.

    Notes: Summary Legumin and vicilin were purified from seeds of Vicia faba L. var. Scuro, characterized in different electrophoretic systems, and used to produce polyclonal antibodies in rabbits. Two-dimensional electrophoretic studies showed a wide range of heterogeneity in the subunits of both legumin and vicilin. Legumin was found to be composed of 29 disulphide-linked subunit pairs with different molecular weight and/or isoelectric point. Western blot analysis of legumin of several mutants revealed molecular polymorphism based on a corresponding gene family. Three different α-major legumin patterns were found, and inheritance studies showed that the 34.3-kD legumin polypeptide is the product of one locus, Lg-1α, which is the first legumin genetic locus described in Vicia faba. Vicilin was found to be composed of as many as 59 subunits distributed in a molecular weight range of 65.7 to 42.8 kD (major polypeptides) and 37.2 to 15.2 kD (minor polypeptides), with different isoelectric points. A model is proposed that explains the possible formation of the minor subunits and the major subunits of 48.2 and 46 kD molecular weight (MW) from proteolytic cleavages and/or glycosilation of precursor polypeptides. Ten different vicilin electrophoretic patterns were observed among the analyzed accessions, which showed large molecular polymorphism that proved to be under genetic control.

    Notes: Summary Rye α-Amy1, α-Amy2, and α-Amy3 genes were studied in the cross between inbred lines using wheat α-amylase cDNA probes. The α-Amy1 and α-Amy2 probes uncovered considerable restriction fragment length polymorphism, whereas the α-Amy3 region was much more conserved. The numbers of restriction fragments found and the F2 segregation data suggest that there are three α-Amy1 genes, two or three α-Amy2 genes, and three α-Amy3 genes in rye. These conclusions were supported by a simultaneous study of α-amylase isozyme polymorphism. The F2 data showed the three individual α-Amy1 genes to span a distance of 3cM at the locus on chromosome 6RL. The genes were mapped relative to other RFLP markers on 6RL. On chromosome 7RL two α-Amy2 genes were shown to be separated by 5 cM. Linkage data within α-Amy3 on 5RL were not obtained since RFLP could be detected at only one of the genes.

    Notes: Abstract The focus of CJD among Jews of Libyan origin has been recognized for two decades, but the reasons underlying it were unknown. Prevailing views suggested transmission from sheep infected with scrapie. However, recent data show that in fact CJD in this ethnic group is a genetically determined disease due to a point mutation on the codon 200 of the prion protein gene. The clinical characteristics of CJD in this group, and particularly the less common periodic activity in the EEG, are reviewed. New findings include peripheral neuropathy of the demyelinating type in two cases, presumably due to involvement of Schwann cells. The pathophysiology of the disease includes, presumably, a focal post-translational modification of the prion protein, (predisposed by the mutation). Later, the disease progresses through cell-to-cell transmission.

    Mutants of Nicotiana plumbaginifolia with specific resistance to auxin (1991)

    Notes: Summary We have isolated nine independent auxin-resistant mutants of Nicotiana plumbaginifolia by culturing M2 seedlings in the presence of indole-3-acetic acid ethyl ester or 1-naphthaleneacetic acid at concentrations which significantly inhibit hypocotyl elongation of the wild type. The mutations were induced by treating seed with ethyl methanesulphonate and were found in the course of screening 10 000 individual M2 families. Auxin resistance was in all cases the result of a mutation at a single, nuclear locus. The dominance relationships of two of the mutants could be defined as recessive or dominant; all other mutants showed partial dominance. In contrast to previously described mutants of Arabidopsis and N. plumbaginifolia, all of the present mutants were specifically resistant to auxin; the mutants were cross-resistant to several auxins, but showed no increased resistance to cytokinin, abscisic acid, ethylene or 1-amino-cyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid. The importance of the choice of the selection criterion for the isolation of specific resistance traits is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract This study was designed to compare catecholamine concentrations among three brain areas of four pureline populations of visually isolated chicks. The purelines used were a commercial male line, a fertility selected line, an unselected fertility control line, and unselected White Jersey Giants. In general, male chicks had significantly larger brain weights than females. Six catecholamine-related compounds (norepinephrine, epinephrine,l-DOPA, dopamine, DOPAC, and MHPG) were measured via HPLC-ECD. No significant differences in neurochemical concentration were observed for any line or brain area due to sex of the chick. The hypothalamus (HT) contained the greatest concentration of catecholamines in all lines, followed by the intramedial hyperstriatum ventrale (IMHV) and optic tectum (OT). The HT exhibited consistent lateralization in all lines with the right HT containing ca. 30% more catecholamines than the left HT. While no consistent lateralization was observed among the other brain areas, the IMHV exhibited significantly different degrees of lateralization among the populations. Neuronal activity, as measured by MHPG:NE and DOPAC:DA ratio varied by line within each brain area. There were line differences for MHPG:NE in the HT, IMHV, and OT, while line differences for DOPAC:DA were observed in the HT. Since differences among purelines have been demonstrated in this study, care must be given to precisely define the genotype of chicks used in behavioral and neurochemical research.

    Notes: Summary The inheritance of resistance in cauliflower to stalk rot (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary) was investigated in population from six generations of six crosses. Disease incidence was recorded on 4 parents, 6 Fs 1, 6 Fs 2 and 12 back-crosses in a screenhouse under artificially created epiphytotic conditions. Resistance to stalk rot in this set of parents was found to be polygenic and under the control of recessive genes and due primarily to additive gene action. A breeding strategy emphasizing recurrent selection should lead to improvement in resistance.

    Notes: The properties (squared dimensions, anisotropy, numbers of intra- and intermolecular contacts) of a single five-way cubic lattice chain embedded into an environment (matrix) of chains of the same length n = 50 were evaluated as a function of matrix volume fraction (matrix density) v and intermolecular interaction between the matrix polymer and the minority chain segments, characterized by a parameter φ. No convincing evidence was found for the occurrence of a coil-globule transition in the range of matrix densities (v ≤ 0.7) and repulsive interactions between matrix and minority chain (φ ≤ 0.2) investigated. For moderate attractive interaction (φ ≈ -0.17) a compensation of the chaincompressing action of the matrix and the chain-expanding interaction with the matrix was observed resulting in a zero-dependence of the size and shape of the minority chain on matrix density. It further turned out that there are fixed relations among the various size and shape data irrespective of the specific combination of matrix density and thermodynamic interaction by which a particular polymer dimension is produced. These interrelations are fairly the same as those evaluated for isolated chains the size of which is varied by an intramolecular energy parameter φi.

    Notes: New three phases composite materials made of glassbeads as filler, water as liquid dispersed phase and polystyrene as matrix were obtained by polymerization of a water in oil emulsion formed by water dispersed in styrene in which glass beads are added. For this purpose glass beads have to be modified by silanization by a coupling agent 3-(Trimethoxysilyl)propylmethacrylate (TPM) or a silane Octadecyltrichlorosilane (ODMS), in order to prevent the wetting of the glass by water. Only low coverage of the glass surface by the coupling agent (0,05% of TPM) are convenient for the preparation cellular materials having good mechanical properties. At higher coverage ratio, strong hydrophobic glass beads are obtained which destabilize the water / styrene emulsion and lead to macroporous products. Study of the rheology of the filled emulsion appears to be the more simple and more sensitive method to determine the level of wettability of the glass bead by the emulsion which is the most significant parameter for the preparation of such three phases composite materials. Composite materials made of glass beads, air and polystyrene are simply obtained by evaporation of water under vacuum.

    Notes: To test the molecular parameters concerning gas sorption in polymers, the concentration of CO2, N2O, CO, N2, CH4 and the noble gases Ne, He in glassy poly(butylene terephthalate) films (PBTP) has been studied gravimetrically with a recording microbalance at 25°C. The sorption isotherms exhibit downward curvature to the pressure axis. As neither solubility nor adsorption can explain the experimental results, analysis was carried out based on the dual-sorption model: gas dissolution and microvoid filling are considered as independent sorption mechanisms. The parameters of the dual-sorption model for the mentioned penetrants are determined. The results indicate that for parameter correlation the Lennard-Jones potential parameters give a rough idea, but size exclusion of gases in small diameter microvoids is proposed and special chemical interactions must be considered.

Methylaluminoxan, diethylaluminium ethoxide, tetraisobutyldialuminoxan and tetrabutyltin served as cocatalyst. Toluene, Chlorobenzene and dichloromethane were used as solvents. The concentration of the tungsten components was in the range from 5 × 10-4 to 5 × 10-3 mol/l. Among the catalyst studied, tungsten hexachloride with diethylaluminium ethoxide proved to be the best. The polymerisation was highly selective with this system even at high monomer/tungsten ratios (e.q. 10200:1) and let to high conversions (≥82%).
    Notes: Die ringöffnende metathetische Polymerisation (ROMP) von 5-Cyano-2-norbornen wurde unter Einsatz von Wolframhexachlorid, Wolframoxidterachlorid, Bis(dichloralkoxo)wolframtetrachlorid und Bis(dichloralkoxo)wolframoxiddichlorid als Übergangsmetallkomponente untersucht. Als Cokatalysatoren dienten Methylaluminoxan, Diethylaluminiumethoxid, Tetraisobutyldialuminoxan und Tetrabutylzinn. Als Lösungsmittel wurden Toluol, Chlorbenzol und Dichlormethan verwendet. Die Konzentration der Wolframkomponente lag im Bereich 5 × 10-4 - 5 × 10-3 mol/l. Unter den geprüften Katalysatoren erwies sich Wolframhexachlorid in Verbindung mit Diethylalumiumethoxid als der geeignetste. Mit diesem System verlief die Polymerisation auch bei großen Monomer/Wolfram-Verhältnissen (10200 :1) hochselektiv und führte zu großen Umsätzen (≥82%).

    Notes: The dependence of dilution on the chain propagation and termination rate constants was investigated in the polymerization of ethyl acrylate in benzene solution at 50°C, with the rotating sector method. The errors of the above rate constants were determined and, by our method applied to decrease these errors, the errors of the propagation rate constant was reduced to its half value. By the application of our earlier results in polymerization kinetics, we found that in this system the chain propagation step is exclusively responsible for the solvent effects observed. Our experimental results can be quantitatively described in terms of the hot redical theory.

    Description / Table of Contents: Durch gemeinsame Reaktion von Benzophenontetracarbonsäuredianhydrid, Maleinsäureanhydrid und Diaminen mit 1,3,5-Triazingruppen wurden niedermolekulare Prepolymere mit Amin-Endgruppen erhalten, die sowohl 1,3,5-Triazingruppen als auch Etherbindungen enthalten. Diese reaktiven Prepolymeren sind in niedrigsiedenden Lösemitteln wie z. B. Chloroform und Tetrahydrofuran löslich. Sie wurden durch Elementaranalyse, IR- und NMR-Spektroskopie, Dampfdruckosmometrie und Viskosimetrie charakterisiert. Beim Erhitzen der Prepolymeren auf Temperaturen zwischen 180 und 190°C tritt Kettenverlängerung durch Michael-Addition auf; gleichzeitig vernetzen sie durch Reaktion der Amin- mit den Maleimid-Endgruppen. Die vernetzten Polymeren sind thermisch stabil; ihr thermisches Verhalten wurde durch TGA, DTA und isotherme Alterung untersucht. Die Biegefestigkeit und interlaminare Scherfestigkeit von aus den Prepolymeren und Carbonfasergeweben hergestellten Laminaten wurden gemessen.
    Notes: Low molecular weight amine-terminated monomaleimide prepolymers containing 1,3,5-triazine groups as well as ether linkages were synthesized by reacting benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride, diamines having 1,3,5-triazine group and maleic anhydride. These reactive prepolymers are soluble in low boiling solvents such as chloroform, tetrahydrofuran etc. They were characterized by elemental analyses, IR and NMR spectroscopy, vapour pressure osmometry, and viscosity. On heating at 180-190°C these prepolymers undergo simultaneous chain extension by Michael addition reaction and crosslinking by mutual reaction between their amine-terminated and maleimide-terminated ends. The cured polymers are thermostable and the thermal behaviour was studied by TGA, DTA, and isothermal aging. Laminates fabricated using these prepolymers and carbon fiber as reinforcing agent were evaluated by their flexural strength and interlaminar shear strength.

    Description / Table of Contents: Ein Epoxidharz wurde durch Reaktion mit Anilin bzw. Benzylamin in unterschiedlichen molaren Verhältnissen modifiziert. Die modifizierten Harze wurden dann mit Diethylamin und anschließend mit teilblockiertem Toluylendiisocyanat umgesetzt, wobei thermisch vernetzbare Harze mit tertiären Aminen in und am Ende der Polymerkette erhalten wurden. Die partielle Ansäuerung mit Essigsäure lieferte thermisch vernetzbare kationische Harze, aus denen durch Lösen in geeigneten Lösungsmitteln und Zugabe von entionisiertem Wasser Emulsionen hergestellt wurden. Diese wurden hinsichtlich ihrer Eignung zur elektrolytischen Abscheidung untersucht und verglichen. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß die Abscheidungsausbeute und das Streuvermögen der Emulsionen aus Benzylamin-modifizierten Epoxidharzen besser sind als die der Anilin-modifizierten Epoxidemulsionen. Ein hohes, vom pH-Wert der Emulsion abhängiges Streuvermögen ist für diese kationischen Harze charakteristisch.
    Notes: Aniline/benzylamine-modified epoxy resins with different molecular weights, which contain tertiary amines in the middle of the polymer chain, were synthesized by the reaction of aniline/benzylamine with epoxy resin at various molar ratios. The resulting aniline/benzylamine-modified epoxy resins were reacted with diethylamine and subsequently reacted with 2-ethylhexanol-blocked toluene diisocyanate to obtain thermally crosslinkable resins which contain tertiary amines at the end and in the middle of the polymer chain. These resins were partially neutralixed with acetic acid to give thermally crosslinkable cationic resins. The resulting cationic resins were dissolved in suitable solvents and mixed with deionized water to form various emulsions. The emulsion and electrodeposition properties of these resins were studied in some detail to compare the properties of these cationic resins. The results show that the deposition yields and throwing power of the emulsions prepared from benzylaminemodified epoxy resins are higher than those of the emulsions prepared from anilinemodified epoxy resins. The emulsion having proper pH values can give a high throwing power. High throwing power is the characteristic property of these modified cationic resins. Factors determining the throwing power and deposition yield of the emulsions were also investigated.

    Description / Table of Contents: Different composite materials, with retified or natural poplar and polyester resin were prepared by molding. The influence of the filler granulometry on certain physicochemical (density, humidity, hardness) or mechanical properties of the materials was studied. The density and the increase of mass in humid atmosphere were always found to be less when the wood was thermally treated. On the other hand, the hardness of the composites made from natural poplar was much higher. The mechanical properties were found to be weak when the wood was retified.When the wood was thermally treated, it was possible to optimise the three parameters, namely, density, water retention capacity and mechanical properties. The optimal granulometry of poplar was determined between 0.75 and 1.5 mm.The results obtained are discussed considering the physico-chemical properties of the different varieties of wood studied and the interactions which exist between the polar resin and the wood.
    Notes: Divers matériaux composites à base de peuplier rétifié ou naturel et de résine polyester insaturée ont été préparés par moulage. L'influence de la granulométrie de la charge a été étudiée sur quelques propriétés physico-chimiques (densité, reprise d'humidité, dureté) ou mécaniques des matériaux obtenus. La densité et la reprise de masse en milieu humide sont toujours plus faibles si la charge est traitée thermiquement sous atmosphère inerte. Par contre, la dureté des composites issus du peuplier naturel est plus importante. Les propriétés mécaniques sont inférieures si la charge est rétifitée.Si la charge lignocellulosique est traitée thermiquement, il est possible d'optimiser les trois paramètres: densité, reprise d'eau et propriétés mécaniques; la granulométrie optimale du peuplier est ainsi comprise entre 0,75 et 1,5 mm.Les résultats obtenus sont expliqués en tenant compte des propriétés physico-chimiques des charges et des interactions existant entre la résine polaire et le bois.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht das Wasserdurchlässigkeitsverhalten von vier Arten verschieden modifizierter Chitosanmembranen zur Abtrennung von Wasser aus wäßrigen Ethanolmischungen. Chitosan wurde aus Chitin von Krebstierschalen durch Verseifung (Deacetylierung) gewonnen. Die in dieser Arbeit untersuchten modifizierten Chitosanmembranen enthielten Carboxymethyl-, Carboxyethyl-, Cyanethyl- und Amidoxim-Chitosan. Die Einführung hydrophiler funktioneller Gruppen in der 6-O Position des Chitosans erhöht die Selektivität der modifizierten Membranen im Vergleich zu den mit Essigsäure komplexierten Chitosanmembranen. Die Untersuchungen zeigen, daß Chitosanmembranen, die Carboxygruppen enthalten, die höchste Wasserdampfdurchlässigkeit aufweisen. Carboxymethyl-Chitosanmembranen zeigen eine maximale Quellung und den höchsten Ethanoldurchfluß bei einer Ethanolkonzentration von ca. 15 Gew.-% im Zulauf aufgrund von Bindungs- und Weichmachereffekten.
    Notes: The present study investigates the pervaporation performance of four kinds of modified chitosan membranes to separate water from aqueous ethanol solution. Chitosan was prepared from chitin abstracted from the crab shell and subsequently deacetylated with aqueous NaOH solution. Modified chitosan membranes examined in this study include carboxymethyl chitosan, carboxyethyl chitosan, cyanoethyl chitosan, and amidoxime chitosan. The incorporation of hydrophilic functional groups into the 6-O position of chitosan enhances the selectivity of modified chitosan membrane compared to the previously reported chitosan-acetic acid complex membrane. Among the modified chitosan membranes, membranes containing carboxy groups show the best pervaporation performance. Carboxymethyl chitosan membranes show the maximum swelling and ethanol flux at approx. 15 wt.-% feed ethanol concentration due to the coupling and plasticizing effect.

    Description / Table of Contents: The tensile properties of self reinforced poly(propylene)/poly(1-butene) composites, obtained by rapid extension of the melt, have been measured and correlated to morphological parameters derived from x-ray experiments. Critical fiber lengths as a function of sample composition and the elastic modulus and yield stress of the fibers could be determined. It is shown, that, applying a load to the system, the forces are fully taken up by the fibers and the system breaks by fail of the fibers. The longitudinal structure of the fibers is found to be independent of sample composition.
    Notes: Mechanische Parameter wie Elastizitätsmodul, Fliß- und Bruchspannung von aus der hochorientierten Schmelze hergestellten nadelkristallinen Mischungen aus Poly(propylen) und Poly(1-bute) wurden mit morphologischen Parametern, die aus Röntgenmessungen abgeleitet wurden, korreliert. Es wird gezeigt, daß der Elastizitätsmodul des Verbundes aus den E-Moduln der Fasern und der Matrix berechnet werden kann (Mischungsregel). Die an der Probe angreifenden Kräfte werden voll auf die Fasern übertragen; der Verbund kann daher als eigenfaserverstärktes System angesehen werden. Die Abschätzung der kritischen Faserlänge ergibt, daß die Festigkeit der FAsern voll ausgenutzt wird; der Bruch des Systems bei Belastung ist daher auf das Versagen der Fasern zurückzuführen. Das mechanische Verhalten des Verbundes wird stark beeinflußt durch die Komponentenzusammensetzung. Die longitudinale Struktur der Nadeln beider Komponenten bleibt unbeeinflußt von der jeweiligen Co-Komponente.

Die Reaktionsparameter, die die Polymereigenschaften hauptsächlich beeinflussen, sind: Molverhältnis DMA/asymmetrische Diamine, Ausgangskonzentration der Aminlösung, Molverhältnis ECH/Amine und die Struktur der asymmetrischen Diamine. Das viskosimetrische Verhalten verdünnter wäßriger Lösungen mit oder ohne Zugabe neutraler Salze veranschaulicht die flexible Natur der Polyelektrolyten.
    Notes: Water soluble cationic polyelectrolytes containing quaternary nitrogen atoms within the main chain were prepared via condensation polymerization of epichlorohydrin (ECH) with dimethylamine (DMA) and N,N-dialkylaminoalkylamines. The main parameters of the reaction that influence the polymer properties are: DMA/asymmetrical diamine molar ratio, the initial concentration of amine solution, NaOH/amine molar ratio, ECH/amine molar ratio, and asymmetrical diamine structure. The feature of flexible polyelectrolyte own to the investigated polymers was emphasized by the viscosimetric behaviour in dilute aqueous solutions with and without salt presence.

Die immobilisierten Antioxidantien waren weniger flüchtig und extrahierbar als konventionelle Antioxidantien. Sie wurden sowohl einem Latex als auch trockenem Kautschuk zugesetzt; die daraus hergestellten Vulkanisate zeigten eine bessere Alterungsbeständigkeit als Vulkanisate mit konventionellen Antioxidantien.
    Notes: Antioxidants were attached to hydroxy-terminated liquid natural rubber by modified Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction using anhydrous zinc chloride as catalyst. The rubber bound antioxidants were found to be less volatile and less extractable compared to conventional antioxidants. The bound antioxidants were tried both in latex compounds and dry rubber compounds. The vulcanizates showed improved ageing resistance compared to vulcanizates based on conventional antioxidants.

Die Abhängigkeit von σ gegen 1/T deutet auf zwei verschiedene Leitfähigkeits-mechanismen hin. Aus den Ergebnissen wurden die Aktivierungsenergien der Leitfähigkeit und die Sprungdistanzen berechnet.
    Notes: Current-voltage characteristics of polycarbonate samples (PC) have been studied in the voltage range 50-1000 V. The effect of UV-irradiation at λ = 225 and 300 nm, and thermal annealing on the electrical conductivity (σ) of PC was studied. The σ vs. 1/T relationship shows two slopes, i.e. two possible conduction mechanisms. The obtained results made it possible to determine a complete set of conduction parameters including activation energy and jump distance.

    Description / Table of Contents: Durch Suspensionspolymerisation wurden Terpolymere aus Acrylnitril (AN), Vinylacetat (VA) (7,5-30 mol-%, bezogen auf AN) und Divinylbenzol (DVB) (10 Gew.-%) hergestellt. Als Verdünner wurden Mischungen von Toluol oder Cyclohexanol (90 Vo1.-%) mit Hexadecan, Octan, Dodecan, 2-Ethylhexanol oder Benzylalkohol (jeweils 10 Vo1.-%) verwendet.Die Porosität der AN-VA-DVB-Terpolymeren ist mit 0,61-0,68 größer als die der entsprechenden AN-DVB-Copolymeren. Die übermolekulare Struktur der Terpolymeren hängt vom verwendeten Verdünner ab, obwohl sich die Porositäten nicht sehr voneinander unterscheiden. Die beim Erhitzen der Terpolymeren auf Temperaturen über 200°C auftretenden thermischen Effekte sind signifikant größer als die bei der Cyclisierung von AN-Polymeren gemessenen.
    Notes: Terpolymers of acrylonitrile (AN), vinyl acetate (VA) (7.5-30 mol-%, related to AN), and divinylbenzene (DVB) (10 wt.-%) were prepared by suspension polymerization. The diluents used were mixtures of toluene or cyclohexanol (90 vol.-%) with solvents (10 vol.-%) such as hexadecane (HD), octane (O), dodecane (D), 2-ethylhexanol (E) or benzyl alcohol (B).It has been found that AN-VA-DVB terpolymers have a higher porosity, about 0.61-0.68, than corresponding AN-DVB copolymers. The terpolymers obtained with mixtures of various diluents differ in their supermolecular structure although they had similar porosity characteristics.The thermal effects accompanying heating of the terpolymers above 200°C significantly exceed that of nitrile groups cyclization observed of the other AN polymers.

    Description / Table of Contents: Es wird ein allgemeines numerisches Verfahren vorgestellt, um die Modifikation der Grundgleichung für hydrodynamische Schmierung, die von mit Polymeren versetzten Schmierölen mit scherabhängiger Viskosität erbracht wird, zu berechnen.Das Verfahren basiert auf dem verallgemeinerten Newtonschen Fileßmodell und erlaubt, alle Fileßregionen zwischen dem rein Newtonschen und dem Exponentialgesetzverhalten kontinuierlich zu behandeln. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß der Einfluß der scherspannungsabhängigen Viskosität durch eine dimensionslose Zahl vollkommen charakterisiert wird, nämlich U · τ*/h*, wobei U die relative Gleitgeschwindigkeit, h* die charakteristische Filmdicke und τ* die Relaxationszeit des Schmieröles darstellen.Als praktisches Beispiel wird die Anwendung des Verfahrens aufgezeigt, um den Einfluß des Molekulargewichts und der Konzentration der Polymerkomponente des Schmieröls auf die hydrodynamische Schmierung zu bestimmen. Dieser Einfluß ist durch die starke Beziehung zwischen Polymereigenschaften und τ* verursacht.
    Notes: A general numerical procedure is presented to calculate the modification of the basic equation for hydrodynamic lubrication brought about by the use of polymeric fluids with shear depending viscosity. The procedure is based on the generalized Newtonian fluid model and allows to treat continuously all the flow regions between the pure Newtonian and the power law behavior. The results show that the influence of the viscosity depending on shear stress is completely characterized by one dimensionless number, namely U.·τ*/h*, where U is the relative sliding velocity, h* is the characteristic film thickness, and τ* is a characteristic time of the lubricant. The procedure is exemplified by applying it for the determination of the influence of the molecular weight and concentration of the polymeric component of the lubricant on the hydrodynamic lubrication. This influence is brought about by the strong relation between the polymer properties and τ*.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Morphologien von spritzgegossenem und formgepreßtem Poly(1-buten) (PB-1) wurden im Polarisationsmikroskop und im Transmissionselektronenmikroskop untersucht. Eine dünne Oberflächenhaut und bis in den Kern der Probekörper reichende abgeplattet-sphärolithische Strukturen werden bei spritzgegossenem PB-1 beobachtet, während in formgepreßtem PB-1 typische Sphärolithe vorliegen. Das Bruchbild des spritzgegossenen PB-1 zeigt unter der Oberflächenhaut viele aufgereihte streifenartige Hohlräume, die senkrecht zur Spritzrichtung zur Mitte des Probekörpers wachsen. Aus diesen Beobachtungen kann geschlossen werden, daß eine beim Spritzgießen durch den Schmelzefluß induzierte Scherspannung nicht nur die Entstehung der Oberflächenhaut verursacht, sondern auch bis in die Mitte des Probekörpers hinein die Bildung abgeplatteter Sphärolithe bewirkt. Diese abgeplattet-sphärolithischen Strukturen sind für die beim Dehnen des spritzgegossenen PB-1 entstehenden, streifenartigen Hohlräume verantwortlich, während die Oberflächenhaut und die abgeplatteten Sphärolithe im Kern die Sprödigkeit und die im Vergleich zu formgepreßtem PB-1 geringere Bruchdehnung bewirken. Diese kann durch Tempern oberhalb des Schmelzpunktes erhöht werden.
    Notes: The injection-molded poly(1-butene) (PB-1) is found to be more brittle than the compression-molded PB-1. The morphologies of these specimens are examined by use of polarized optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). A skin layer and an oblate spherulitic structure extended to the core region are observed in the injection-molded PB-1, while typical spherulites exist in the compression-molded PB-1. Below the skin layer of the injection-molded PB-1, the fracture surface is found to consist of many aligned strip-like voids with ribbon edges propagating to the center of the specimen and perpendicular to the flow direction of injection-molding. Based on these observations, it can be inferred that shear stress induced by the melt flow during the injection-molding does not only cause the formation of skin layer, but also penetrates deeply into the central region of the injection-molded specimen causing the formation of oblate spherulites. The oblate spherulitic structure is responsible for the aligned voids during elongation of PB-1, while the existence of the skin layer and the oblate spherulites in core region is responsible for the brittleness of the injection-molded PB-1. The elongation of the injection-molded PB-1 is found to be lower than that of the compression-molded. This can be attributed not only to the presence of the skin layer but also to the oblate spherulites in the core region. The elongation can be improved by annealing at a temperature above the melting point of PB-1.

The resins thus obtained have been characterized by IR spectra and number average molecular weight. The thermal properties have been studied by thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry. All the resins were tested for their biological activity against Pseudomonas fluorescens, Bacillus subtilis and Aspergillus niger. The results show that the growth of the tested organisms can be controlled by the polyketone resins.

    Description / Table of Contents: In der Arbeit wurde die homogene Polyaddition von Pyromellitsäuredianhydrid und 4,4′-Diaminodiphenylmethan untersucht. Die Abhängigkeit des zahlenmittleren Molekulargewichts (M̄n) von der Zeit weist ein Maximum auf. Die Ursache der niedrigen Gleichgewichtswerte von M̄n beruht auf einer durch Wasserspuren im Lösungsmittel verursachten Dianhydridhydrolyse und damit einer gestörten Äquimolarität der funktionellen Gruppen. Im Laufe der Stabilisierung des M̄n-Gleichgewichtswertes entsteht auch die wahrscheinlichste Molmassenverteilung.
    Notes: The homogeneous polyaddition reaction of pyromellitic dianhydride with 4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane was investigated. The dependence of the number average molecular weights on time has a maximum; low equilibrium values of M̄n are caused by a disturbed equimolarity of functional groups due to the hydrolysis of dianhydride with water present in the solvent. In the course of establishment of the equilibrium M̄n value, the molecular weight distribution changes to the most probable value.

    Description / Table of Contents: Das Phasen- und Mischbarkeitsverhalten der binären und ternären Polymermischungen von Polyarylat (PAR), Phenoxid und Poly(butylenterephthalat) (PBT) wurde untersucht. Die Mischungen wurden durch Ausfällen aus gemeinsamen Lösungen hergestellt, und die Mischbarkeit wurde durch DSC-Messungen und Transparenz der Schmelze beurteilt. Im Falle der binären Blends zeigten PAR/PBT und Phenoxid/PBT Mischbarkeit, während sich PAR/Phenoxid nicht mischen ließ. Die Mischbarkeitstendenz der unmischbaren PAR/Phenoxid-Mischungen konnte jedoch durch Zugabe von PBT erhöht werden; eine ausreichende Menge PBT machte die ternären Mischungen mischbar, so daß diese eine einzige Tg in der DSC-Kurve zeigten. Im ternären Phasendiagramm war das Maximum der Mischbarkeitsgrenze in Richtung auf die Phenoxidseite hin verschoben, was auf die bessere Mischbarkeit von PAR/PBT im Vergleich zu Phenoxid/PBT zurückgeführt wird.
    Notes: The phase and miscibility behavior of binary and ternary blends containing polyarylate (PAR), polyhydroxyether of bisphenol AIUPAC: poly[oxy(2-hydroxytrimethylene)oxy-1,4-phenylene-isopropylidene-1,4-phenylene]. (Phenoxy), and poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) were studied. The blends were prepared by solution-precipitation method and miscibility was examined by DSC and melt transparency. In binary blends, PAR/PBT and Phenoxy/PBT blends show miscibility, while PAR/Phenoxy appeared to be immiscible. However, the miscibility of incompatible PAR/Phenoxy blend was enhanced by addition of PBT. The addition of sufficient amount of PBT caused the ternary blend to have a single glass transition temperature. The shape of miscibility boundary of ternary blend was skewed to the apex of Phenoxy, which was attributed to the better miscibility of PAR/PBT than that of Phenoxy/PBT.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Festphasen-Polykondensation von amorphen, unorientierten Poly(ethylenterephthalat)-Folien (PET) (Vorstufe der Du Pont Mylar® -Polyesterfilme), die mit einem speziellen Katalysator-und Monomer-System hergestellt wurden, war Gegenstand dieser Arbeit. Der Einfluß verschiedener Reaktionsparameter, wie Reaktionstemperatur und -zeit, auf die inhärente Viskosität (ηinh) und auf die Anzahl der Carboxy-und Hydroxy-Endgruppen wurde untersucht. Aus den Messungen von ηinh wurde eine empirische Gleichung erstellt, die die Berechnung von M̄n der PET-Folien nach der Festphasen-Polykondensation bei gegebener Zeit und Temperatur erlaubt. Das Schmelzverhalten verschiedener Festphasen-Polykondensate wurde ebenfalls untersucht.
    Notes: The solid-state polycondensation of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) amorphous and unoriented films from Du Pont (precursor for their Mylar® Du Pont's registered trade mark for the polyester film. polyester film) prepared from a specified catalyst and monomer system has been studied. The effect of various reaction parameters such as reaction temperature and time on inherent viscosity (ηinh) and number of carboxy and hydroxy end-groups has been investigated. From ηinh measurements an empirical equation was taken which allows the calculation of (M̄n) of PET film after solid-state polycondensation at a certain temperature and time. The melting behaviour of the solid-state polycondensated samples was also studied.

    Description / Table of Contents: Sphärische makroporöse Partikel, die als Trägermaterialen für verschiedene Säulen-Operationen eingesetzt werden sollen, wurden mittels Suspensions- und Mikrosuspensionspolymerisation von Trimethylolpropan-trimethacrylat (TRIM) in Gegenwart verschiedener Mengen porogener Reagenzien (Toluol bzw. Mischungen von Toluol und Isooktan) hergestellt. Textur und Eigenschaften der Partikel variierten deutlich mit dem Anteil und der Zusammensetzung des porogenen Reagens und wurden zusätzlich durch die Wahl des Suspensionstabilisators beeinflußt. Die makroporösen Partikel wiesen ein Gesamtporenvolumen von 0,4 bis 3,6 cm3/g und eine spezifische Oberfläche von 7 bis 〉 450 m2/g auf. Alle Partikel enthielten Makroporen und, außer den Teilchen mit sehr niedriger spezifischer Oberfläche, einen gewissen Anteil an Mikroporen (Durchmesser 〈 60 Å). Durch Erniedrigung der Monomerkonzentration und Erhöhung des Isooktan-Gehaltes im porogenen Reagens auf 50 Gew.-% konnte das Auftreten von Mikroporen vollständig unterdrückt werden. Das Erhöhen des Isooktan-Gehaltes führte zu einem vergrößerten Gesamtporenvolumen und zu einem verringerten Quellvermögen der Polymermatrix in Toluol. Der Einfluß einer Hitzebehandlung bei 130°C und eines Aufpfropfens von Polymethylmethacrylat auf die Partikeleigenschaften wurde ebenfalls untersucht.Die Menge an nicht umgesetzten Doppelbindungen in den Partikeln konnte durch Variation der Polymerisationstemperatur verändert werden. Das Vorhandensein leicht zugänglicher Doppelbindungen ist wichtig, da sie zur Funktionalisierung der festen makroporösen Partikel verwendet werden können.
    Notes: Spherical macroporous particles, intended for use as carrier particles in various types of column operations, were prepared by suspension and microsuspension polymerization of trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TRIM), in the presence of various amounts of porogenic agents (toluene or mixtures of toluene and isooctane). The texture and properties of the particles varied markedly with the amount and composition of the porogenic agent, and were also affected by the choice of suspension stabilizer. Macroporous particles were prepared, ranging in total pore volume from 0.4 to 3.6 cm3/g, and in specific surface area from 7 to 〉450 m2/g. All of the particles contained macropores, and except for those with very low specific surface area, contained a certain fraction of micropores (diameter 〈60 Å). The presence of micropores could be eliminated completely by decreasing the monomer concentration and increasing the isooctane content of the porogenic agent to 50 wt.-%. Increasing the isooctane content also resulted in an increase in the total pore volume and a decrease in the tendency of the polymer matrix to swell in toluene. The effect on properties of particles by heat treatment at 130°C and by grafting poly(methyl methacrylate) onto the particles was also studied.The amount of unreacted double bonds of the particles could be varied by varying the polymerization temperature. The presence of easily accessible double bonds is important as they can be utilized for functionalization of the rigid macroporous particles.

Die Messungen mit Faserverbundwerkstoffen von isotaktischem Polypropylen mit 32 Gew.-% Kurzglasfasern bestätigen die Brauchbarkeit dieser Methode für eine empfindliche Beurteilung von Unterschieden in der Grenzflächenhaftung. Die Einflüsse von Temperatur, Polymer- und Glasfasermodifizierung sowie Faserorientierung auf die Grenzflächenhaftung wurden untersucht.
    Notes: For the evaluation of the interfacial adhesion in short-fibre composites, a simple method based on fibre pull-out length distribution was proposed. The experiments with three composites of isotactic polypropylene with 32 wt.-% of short-glass fibres confirm the potentials of the method for a sensitive determination of differences in the interfacial adhesion. The effects of temperature, crystallinity and fibre orientation angle on the interfacial adhesion were investigated.

    Description / Table of Contents: PE und EPDM-Kautschuk wurden durch Aufpfropfen von Dibutylmaleat (DBM) mit Dicumylperoxid (DCP) als Initiator in Substanz im Temperaturbereich von 140-220°C funktionalisiert. Der Pfropfungsgrad wurde IR-spektroskopisch und durch DSC-Messungen ermittelt. Die für die Pfropfung optimalen DBM- und DCP-Konzentrationen betragen 0,5 bzw. 0,2 Gew.-%. Die Kinetik der Pfropfreaktion ist für PE und EPDM vergleichbar; die Aktivierungsenergien betragen ca. 145 bzw. 130 kJ/mol. Die Pfropfungsgrade sind für PE höher als für EPDM; bei PE/EPDM-Blends steigt der Pfropfungsgrad mit zunehmendem PE-Anteil. Ein Pfropfungsmechanismus, der Nebenreaktionen berucksichtigt, wird vorgeschlagen.
    Notes: Functionalization of polyethylene (PE) and ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) in the bulk through dicumyl peroxide (DCP) initiated grafting of dibutyl maleate (DBM) has been studied in the temperature range from 140 to 200°C. The degree of grafting has been determined by infrared spectrophotometry and DSC. The concentration of DBM and DCP has been optimized. 0.5 wt.-% and 0.2 wt.-% DCP for PE and EPDM, respectively, and 10% DBM for both have been found to be the optimum. The kinetics of the grafting reaction is comparable for PE and EPDM. The activation energy of grafting is ca. 145 kJ/mol for PE and ca. 130 kJ/mol for EPDM. The influence of structure of polyolefins on the degree of grafting has also been studied. A higher degree of grafting is obtained for PE than for EPDM. For PE/EPDM blends, the degree of grafting increases with increasing PE content in the blends. A through discussion and proposed mechanism for grafting and other competitive secondary reactions has been provided.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die dynamisch-mechanischen Eigenschaften von gehärteten Epoxidharzen, gefüllt mit porösen Siliciumdioxid-Mikrokugeln mit unterschiedlichen spezifischen Oberflächen, Porenradien, Porenvolumina und adsorbierter Wassermenge, wurde untersucht. Die Glasubergangstemperaturten (Tg) der Composite sind 12-14°C niedriger als die des ungefullten Harzes, was auf die bevorzugte Adsorption von Härter an den porösen Mikrokugeln zurückgeführt wird. Mit zunehmender adsorbierter Wassermenge steigt die Tg der Composite an. Der Speichermodul ist mit der mit Quecksilber bestimmten spezifischen Oberfläche (Hg-Oberfläche) der Mikrokugeln, die der Summe der Oberfläche von Poren mit einem Durchmesser größer als 4 nm entspricht, korreliert.Das Verbältnis tan δc/tan δm nimmt mit zunehmender Hg-Oberfläche ab.
    Notes: Dynamic mechanical properties were studied for epoxy resin filled with porous silica microballoons with varying surface area, pore radius, pore volume and adsorbed water. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the composites is 12-14°C lower than the Tg of the unfilled epoxy resin. This Tg depression is attributed to the preferential adsorption of curing agents on the porous silica microballoons. Tg of the composite increases with increase in the adsorbed water on fillers. The storage modulus has a distinct correlation with the Hg-surface area of silica microballoons, which corresponds to the sum of the surface area of pores with radii larger than about 4 nm.Tan δc tan δm decreases with increasing Hg-surface area.

    Description / Table of Contents: Membranen aus Blends von Nylon 6 mit Poly(acrylsäure) (PAA) mit PAA-Gehalten zwischen 25 und 45 Gew.-% wurden durch Filmgießen hergestellt und anschließend durch Eintauchen in eine Aluminiumsalzlösung ionisch vernetzt. Die Glasübergangstemperaturen (Tg) der Membranen wurden mit der DSC-Methode bestimmt. Alle Proben zeigen eine einzige Tg oberhalb der Tg der Homopolymeren, die sich mit zunehmender Scanzeit verschiebt; dies wird auf die Eliminierung von Wasser und die Bildung von Anhydriden im nicht vernetzten PAA-Anteil zurückgeführt.Die Morphologie wurde rasterelektronenmikroskopisch untersucht; die Membranen zeigen eine dichte, porenfreie Struktur ohne Phasenseparation, was auf eine völlige Mischbarkeit der beiden Homopolymeren im untersuchten Zusammensensetzungsbereich schließen läßt. Die Festigkeit der Membranen liegt je nach PAA-Gehalt zwischen 5 und 26 MPa; Membranen mit hohem PAA-Anteil zeigen trotz höherer Vernetzungsdichte eine geringere Zugfestigkeit, was mit der geringen Festigkeit von PAA und der mit größerem PAA-Anteil zunehmenden Quellung zusammenhängt. Letztere wurde durch Messen der Wasseraufnahme trockener Membranen bestimmt; sie steigt von 23,6 Gew.-% bei einem PAA-Gehalt von 25 auf 76,3 Gew.-% bei einem PAA-Gehalt von 45 Gew.-%.
    Notes: Ionically crosslinked blended membranes were prepared from blends of nylon 6 and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) with the proportion of PAA ranging from 25 to 45 wt.-%. The technique consists of casting a film of the blend, followed by drying and immersion in an aluminum salt crosslinking solution for a predetermined time. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the membranes was determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). All the samples exhibited a single Tg, which is higher than that of either polymer. There is also a shift in the Tg with increasing scanning time. This phenomenon is attributed to the elimination of water molecules and the formation of anhydrides in the non-crosslinked PAA portion of the membrane. The membrane morphology was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and shows a dense structure without any pores. No phase separation is observed by scanning cross-sections of the samples, indicating that nylon 6 and PAA are completely miscible in the ranges studied. The membrane material strength lies in the range of 5 to 26 MPa and varies with the amount of PAA in the membrane. Samples with higher PAA content show lower tensile strength in spite of increased crosslinking density. This is due to the inherent low strength of PAA, coupled with increasing swelling of the membrane with increasing PAA content. The latter is confirmed by the measurement of water uptake into a dry membrane which increases from 23.6% to 76.3% with the membrane PAA content increasing from 25 to 45 wt.%.

    Description / Table of Contents: Due to the very strong variation of the viscosity of the reaction mass with increasing monomer conversion, three stationary states for the tubes of a multitubular system with cooling vessel can be found. As a consequence, a maldistribution of the fluid arises, so that the reactor stability and the polymer quality are negatively influenced. The recycling of the reaction mass is a helpful method to increase the reactor stability. In this paper some fundamental aspects of the use of multitubular reactors for the polymerization of styrene are studied.
    Notes: Infolge der sich mit steigendem Monomerumsatz stark verändernden Viskosität der Reaktionsmasse existieren im Multirohrreaktor mit Kühlung mindestens drei stationaäre Punkte bezüglich des Einzelrohrmassenstromes gleichzeitig. Als Konsequenz ergibt sich eine Ungleichverteilung der Rohrbelastung, die sowohl die Reaktorstabilität als auch die Polymerqualität negativ beeinflußt. Das Betreiben einer Rückführung kann das Reaktorverhalten stabilisieren. In der vorgelegten Arbeit werden einige fundamentale Aspekte der Anwendung von Multirohrreaktoren für die Massepolymerisation von Styrol untersucht.

    Notes: Heteronuclear multispin coherence proton-detected two-dimensional nmr spectroscopic experiments were used to obtain information on protonated carbons and nitrogens of the self-complementary d (G-G-T-A-T-A-C-C) and d (G-G-A-A-T-T-C-C) duplexes, with and without the drug netropsin dissolved in aqueous solution. Many correlations of protons coupled to 13C nuclei on the base and sugar rings of the octanucleotides were detected, allowing the carbon resonances to be assigned based on previous homonuclear proton two-dimensional nmr studies. Imino nitrogen assignments can also be made using the proton assignments from previous one-dimensional nuclear overhauser effect experiments. Imino nitrogen shifts may be useful indicators of changes in local hydrogen-bonding interactions to base-pair edges.

    Notes: Polyriboadenylates of alkali metals were obtained from (1) K+-poly(A) (salts I) and (2) H+-poly( A) (salts II) by the ion-exchange method. The conductivity of these salts as well as of H+-poly(A) were studied. Salts I and II of the same counterion were shown to have significantly different conductivity coefficients (f) and polyion conductances (λp0). The charge density parameter (ζ) was 1.3 and 2.5, respectively, with λp0 equal to 44 and 83 ohm-1 cm2 mole-1 for poly(A)-I and poly (A)-II salts, respectively. This is credited to the difference in the conformations of corresponding polyions. The linear dependence of equivalent conductivity on the square root of polymer concentration (Kohlrausch coordinates), earlier obtained for DNA, is also satisfied for the studied polynucleotides. A comparison of the slopes of straight lines in Kohlrausch coordinates for poly(A), simple electrolytes, and for earlier studied polyribouridylic acid salts lends credence to the concepts, developed by a number of authors, that DNA can act as a “buffer” against the ion-ion interaction in concentrated electrolyte solutions. Using the approximation that the polyion conductance is independent of the counterion nature, parameter f (agreeing in this case with Eisenberg parameter φ) has been shown to decrease as the polynucleotide concentration is increased; the decrease is caused by the relaxation effect. The transference numbers of counterions, which have negative values in poly (A)-II solutions, grow with the increase in polymer concentration; the higher the ζ, the more apparent is this increase. This is explained by the increase in the fraction of conductivity along the polyion chains (“surface” conductivity) with the growth of polyelectrolyte concentration.

    Notes: Binding of the hydrophobia fluorescent probe, 1-anilino-naphthalene-8-sulfonate (ANS), to synthetic polypeptides and proteins with a different structural organization has been studied. It has been shown that ANS has a much stronger affinity to the protein “molten globule” state, with a pronounced secondary structure and compactness, but without a tightly packed tertiary structure as compared with its affinity to the native and coil-like proteins, or to coil-like, α-helical, or β-structural hydrophilic homopolypeptides.The possibility of using ANS for the study of equilibrium and kinetic molten globule intermediates is demonstrated, with carbonic anhydrase, β-lactamase, and α-lactalbumin as examples.

    Premelting thermal fluctuational base pair opening probability of poly(dA) · poly(dT) as predicted by the modified self-consistent phonon theory (1991)

    Notes: We employ a mean field, modified, self-consistent phonon theory to evaluate the single base-pair opening rate and the probability of a base pair in the amino proton exchangeable state for the homopolymer poly(dA) · poly(dT) at temperatures below the helix-coil transition region. Our calculated premelting single base-pair opening probabilities are in general agreement with several available experimental estimates from imino proton exchange and formaldehyde-induced DNA melting measurements. These calculated opening probabilities, however, are in disagreement with the prediction of the helix-coil transition theory. Possible reasons for the differences are discussed, especially the possible different definition of a meaningful open state in the premelting region. The premelting open state of the modified self-consistent phonon approximation theory seems to be appropriate to describe a solvent-accessible open configuration that is sufficient to facilitate important chemical reactions such as imino proton exchange and formaldehyde reaction with the bases. This can be compared with the completely unstacked open state of the helix-coil transition theory originally defined in the helix-coil transition region. We propose that the amino proton exchangeable state is different from the open state associated with melting and only involves the breaking of the amino interbase H bond. The agreement between the calculated and experimentally estimated probability of a base pair in the amino proton exchangeable state seems to support this hypothesis.

    Notes: Results of free electrophoresis and free sedimentation of charged rods are introduced to allow for electrical double-layer effects in the gel electrophoresis of DNA, modeled as a Random flight sequence of rodlike Kuhn chain elements. The kinetics of DNA is shown to depend strongly on the orientation of the chain elements with respect to the external field and with respect to the direction of their velocity. The new theory gives approximate agreement between the DNA charge derived from electrophoresis of free and tethered DNA (close to 1.0e per DNA phosphate in both cases), compared with the earlier discrepancy of a factor 10 or 20 for the theory without shielding by salt. As part of a realistic force field for macromolecular dynamics simulation, the small ion effects are included in an expression for the gel forces restraining the DNA in gel electrophoresis from moving as in free electrophoresis.

    Notes: The effect of G · T mispair incorporation into a double-helical environment was examined by molecular dynamics simulation. The 60-ps simulations performed on the two hexanucleotide duplexes d (G3C3)2 and d (G3TC2)2 included 10 Na+ counterions and first hydration shell waters. The resulting backbone torsional angle trajectories were analyzed to select time spans representative of conformational domains. The average backbone angles and helical parameters of the last time span for both duplexes are reported. During the simulation the hexamers retained B-type DNA structures that differed from typical A- or B-DNA forms. The overall helical structures for the two duplexes are vary similar. The presence of G · T mispairs did not alter the overall helical structure of the oligonucleotide duplex. Large propeller twist and buckle angles were obtained for both duplexes. The purine/pyrimidine crossover step showed a large decrease in propeller twist in the normal duplex but not in the mismatch duplex. Upon the formation of wobble mispairs in the mismatched duplex, the guanines moved into the minor groove and the thymines moved into the major groove. This helped prevent purine/purine clash and created a deformation in the relative orientation of the glycosidic bonds. It also exposed the free O4 of the thymines in the major groove and N2 of the guanines in the minor groove to interactions with solvent and counterions. These factors seemed to contribute to the apparently higher rigidity of the mismatched duplex during the simulation.

The information about the factors determining the changes in physicochemical parameters vs the hydration was obtained. This work discusses a possible physical sense of the factors obtained and the expedience of using factor analysis to interpret the molecular-biophysical experiments.

    Notes: The Electrostatically Driven Monte Carlo (EDMC)method was applied in a study of a decamer of glycine whose conformational behavior is described by the Empirical Conformational Energy Program for Peptides (ECEPP/2) potential energy model. When free neutral end groups were used, it was found that conformations that were not α-helical had significantly lower potential energies than fully α-helical ones. However, when the N- and C-termini were blocked by acetyl and methyl amide groups, respectively, the number of unsatisfied hydrogen-bond donors and acceptors at the helix termini was diminished from 8 to 6; in this case, the possibility of forming two additional α-helical hydrogen bonds was an important enough factor in making the α-helical conformation the one with the lowest energy. The EDMC method was used as a global energy optimizer since it does not often become trapped in high-energy local minima.

    1H- and 31P-nmr studies of ditercalinium binding to a d(GCGC)2 and d(CCTATAGG)2 minihelices: A sequence specificity study (1991)

    Notes: The structures of the complexes formed in aqueous solution between ditercalinium, a bisintercalating drug, and both the self-complementary tetranucleotide d(GCGC)2 and octanucleotided(CCTATAGG)2, have been investigated by 400-MHz 1H-nmr and 162-MHz 31P-nmr. All the nonexchangeable protons, as well as the exchangeable imino protons and the phosphorus signals, have been assigned. Both oligonucleotides have been shown to adopt a right-handed B-DNA type structure. The addition of ditercalinium to the oligo-nucleotides lead to the formation of complexes in slow exchange at the nmr time scale with the free helices. At all drug-to-helix ratios studied, the ditercalinium was found in the bound form, whereas free and complexed oligonucleotides were in slow exchange, allowing resonance assignments through two-dimensional chemical exchange experiments.For d(GCGC)2 the strong upfield shifts induced on all aromatic protons of both the bases and the drug by complexation with ditercalinium suggest an interaction by intercalation of the two rings. However, the loss of twofold symmetry upon binding, as well as the chemical shift variation of the drug proton signals of one of the chromophores with temperature and concentration, favor a model in which the drug-nucleotide complexes have one ring of the drug intercalated and the other stacked on top of the external base pair. The intermolecular contacts between drug protons and nucleotide protons give a defined geometry for complexation that is consistent with the proposed model.In contrast, with d(CCTATAGG)2 several drug-nucleotide complexes were formed and a large increase in line broadening was observed at high drug-to-DNA ratios, precluding a detailed analysis of these complexes. However, the large upfield shift in the imino proton resonances together with the shielding of the ditercalinium ring protons favor a model with bis-intercalation of ditercalinium. This model is supported by the downfield shift of at least 4 out of 14 phosphorus signals. The results are compared with those obtained on ditercalinium binding to the homologous sequences d(CGCG)2 and d(TTCGCGAA)2, and discussed in terms of sequence specificity.

    Notes: The synthetic peptide Gly-L-Ala-L-Val (C10H19N3O4·3H2O; GAV) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21, with a = 8.052(2), b = 6.032(2), c = 15.779(7) Å, β = 98.520(1)°, V = 757.8 Å3, Dx = 1.312 g cm-3, and Z = 2. The peptide Gly-L-Ala-L-Leu (C11H21N3O4·3H2O; GAL) crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121, with a = 6.024(1), b = 8.171(1), c = 32.791(1) Å, V = 1614 Å3, Dx = 1.289 g cm-3, and Z = 4. Their crystal structures were solved by direct methods using the program SHELXS-86, and refined to an R index of 0.05 for 1489 reflections for GAV and to an R index of 0.05 for 1563 reflections for GAL. The tripeptides exist as a zwitterion in the crystal and assume a near α-helical backbone conformation with the following torsion angles: ψ1 = -150.7°; φ2, ψ2 = -68.7°, -38.1°; φ3, ψ31, ψ32, = -74.8°, -44.9°, 135.9° for GAV; ψ1 = -150.3°; φ2, ψ2 = -67.7°, -38.9°; φ3, ψ31, ψ32 = -72.2°, -45.3°, 137.5°, for GAL. Both the peptide units in both of the tripeptides show significant deviation from planarity [ω1 = -171.3(6)° and ω2 = -172.0(6)° for GAV; ω1 = -171.9(5)° and ω2 = -173.2(6)° for GAL]. The sidechain conformational angles χ21 and χ22 are -61.7(5)° and 175.7(5)°, respectively, for valine, and the side-chain conformations χ12 and χ23's are -68.5(5)° and (-78.4(6)°, 159.1(5)°) respectively, for leucine. Each of the tripeptide molecule is held in a near helical conformation by a water molecule that bridges the NH3+ and COO- groups, and acts as the fourth residue needed to complete the turn by forming two hydrogen bonds. Two other water molecules form intermolecular hydrogen bonds in stabilizing the helical structure so that the end result is a column of molecules that looks like an α-helix.

    Notes: The effective sphere approximation for modeling electrophoretic transport of macromolecules in highly porous gels (the “Ogston model”) is examined, and contrasted with similar mobility models for stiff and flexible solutes. Calculation of segmental depletion near gel obstacles of various shapes demonstrates the limited applicability of the effective sphere approach. For highly flexible chains, both theory and experiment reveal a nonunique mapping between mobility and molecular size when the molecular radius is comparable to that of gel fibers. Turning to mobility behavior in more concentrated gels, neither flexible or stiff macromolecules behave as spheres; for the particular case of flexible chains, the presence of entropic barriers in concentrated gels can be understood in terms of a simple random planes model for the gel structure.

    Notes: Differential scanning calorimetry studies of the effect of NaCl on protein-based polymer self-assembly has been carried out on six elastin-based synthetic sequential polypeptides- i.e., the polypentapeptide (L-Val1-L-Pro2-Gly3-L-Val4-Gly5)n and its more hydrophobic analogues (L-Leu1-L-Pro2-Gly3-L-Val4-Gly5)n and (L-Val1-L-Pro2-L-Ala3-L-Val4-Gly5)n; the polytetrapeptide (L-Val1-L-Pro2-Gly3-Gly4)n and its more hydrophobic analogue (L-IIe1-L-Pro2-Gly3-Gly4)n; and the polynonapeptide (a pentatetra hybrid), (L-Val1-L-Pro2-Gly3-L-Val4-Gly5-L-Val6-L-Pro7-Gly8-Gly9)n.Previous physical characterizations of the polypentapeptides have demonstrated the occurrence of an inverse temperature transition since increase in order of the polypentapeptide, as the temperature is raised from below to above that of the transition, has been repeatedly observed using different physical characterizations.In the present experiments, it is observed that the transition temperatures of the polypeptides studied are linearly dependent on NaCl concentration. The molar effectiveness of NaCl in shifting the transition temperature ΔTm/[N], is about 14°C/[N], with the dependence on peptide hydrophobicity being fairly small. Interestingly, however, the δΔQ/ [N] does depend on the hydrophobicity of a polypeptide.

    A molecular dynamics study of thermodynamic and structural aspects of the hydration of cavities in proteins (1991)

    Notes: The structure and activity of a protein molecule are strongly influenced by the extent of hydration of its cavities. This is, in turn, related to the free energy change on transfer of a water molecule from bulk solvent into a cavity. Such free energy changes have been calculated for two cavities in a sulfate-binding protein. One of these cavities contains a crystallo graphically observed water molecule while the other does not. Thermodynamic integration and perturbation methods were used to calculate free energies of hydration for each of the cavities from molecular dynamics simulations of two separate events: the removal of a water molecule from pure water, and the introduction of a water molecule into each protein cavity. From the simulations for the pure water system, the excess chemical potential of water was computed to be -6.4 ± 0.4 kcal/mol, in accord with experiment and with other recent theoretical calculations. For the protein cavity containing an experimentally observed water molecule, the free energy change on hydrating it with one water molecule was calculated as -10.0 ± 1.3 kcal/mol, indicating the high probability that this cavity is occupied by a water molecule. By contrast, for the cavity in which no water molecules were experimentally observed, the free energy change on hydrating it with one water molecule was calculated as 0.2 ± 1.5 kcal/mol, indicating its low occupancy by water. The agreement of these results with experiment suggests that thermodynamic simulation methods may become useful for the prediction and analysis of internal hydration in proteins.

    Notes: The conformational possibilities of three different δ-selective opioid peptides, which are DPDPE , and DRE (Tyr-D-Met-Phe-His-Leu-Met-Asp-NH2, dermenkephalin), were explored using energy calculations. Sets of low-energy conformers were obtained for each of these peptides. The sets consisted of 61 structures for DPDPE, 32 for DCFPE, and 38 for DRE, including various types of rotamers of the Tyr and Phe side-chain groups. Comparison of the geometrical shapes of the conformers was performed for these sets using topographical considerations, i.e., examination of the mutual spatial arrangement of the N-terminal α-amino group, and of the Tyr and Phe side-chain groups. The results obtained suggest a model for the δ-receptor-bound conformer(s) for opioid peptides. The model suggests the placement of the Phe side chain in a definite position in space corresponding to the g- rotamer of Phe for peptides containing Phe4 and to the t rotamer for peptides containing Phe.3 The position of the Tyr1 side chain cannot be specified so precisely. The proposed model is in a good agreement with the results of biological testing of β-Me-Phe4-substituted DPDPE analogues that were not considered in the process of model construction.

    Notes: Complete nmr and CD studies of two cyclic tetrapeptides with disulfide bonds, 1 and 2 bonds have been carried out in different solvents to investigate the formation and stabilization of β-turn structures and to determine the stereochemistry of the disulfide linkage. Both peptides have three-dimensional structures with a type II β-turn, as derived from quantitative nuclear Overhauser effect data. The combined use of CD and nmr indicates that the dihedral angle of the disulfide bridge is different in the two peptides, although the chirality is maintained.

    Notes: Time-resolved studies of network self-organization from homogeneous solutions of the representative biostructural polymer agarose are presented. Solutions are temperature quenched and observed by several techniques. Consistent with previous suggestions by the authors, experiments at concentrations up to about 1.75% w/v provide direct kinetic evidence for the occurrence of at least two distinct processes, leading, in sequence, to self-assembly. These are as follows: (a) a liquid-liquid phase separation of the solution occurring via spinodal demixing and resulting in two sets of regions that have, respectively, higher and lower than average concentrations of random-coiled polymers; and (b) the subsequent 2 coils → double helix transition and accompanying cross-linking and gelation (due to branching of double helices), occurring in the high-concentration regions. The size of the high-concentration regions depends upon agarose concentration and quenching temperature, and is in the range from a fraction of micrometers to a few micrometers, in agreement with earlier experiments. Bundling of the double-helical segments is known to follow self-assembly and can be considered as a third step (gel curing). This follows from the thermo-dynamic instability of the helical segments in the solvent, behaving as a system of rod-like particles connected by more or less flexible joints.The two processes leading in succession to self-assembly are discussed in terms of a phase diagram consistent with available data. Their time scales differ remarkably. At the end of the first process, all polymers remain random coiled and freely drifting. Much later coil-helix transition is observed, always in coincidence with polymer cross-linking and gelation. The enhancement of concentration of random-coiled polymers in specific regions of the sol caused by spinodal demixing is thus a prerequisite for self-assembly of these biostructural gels in the concentration interval studied. Conceptually, concentration enhancements of this type can provide a new pathway for promotion of functional biomolecular interactions even at very low average concentrations. The mechanism will work identically if the region of instability is reached by varying the polymer concentration (e.g., by biosynthesis), rather than by temperature quenching.
