    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung An hyperlipämischen Ratten wurde der Einfluß von 7 üblichen ägyptischen Kostformen geprüft. Die Ernährung bestand aus weißen Bohnen und Weizenvollkornbrot (Diät 1), Kohl und Erbsen (2), Spinat und Karotten (3), Weizenvollkornbrot und Bohnensprossen (4), Weizenvollkornbrot, weißen Bohnen und Erbsen (5), weißen Bohnen und Karotten (6) und schließlich Erbsen und Karotten (7). Die Versuche dauerten 5 Wochen, danach wurden verschiedene Plasmalipide und biologische Parameter mit hyperlipämischen Kontrolltieren verglichen. Das Gesamtplasmacholesterol war in allen Versuchsgruppen erniedrigt; eine Ausnahme machte Diät 6, hier gab es keine Senkung. Erniedrigt waren die Gesamtplasmalipide in Gruppe 5. Plasmaphospholipide stiegen an in den Gruppen 3 und 7. In Gruppe 3 war das HDL-Cholesterol erniedrigt. Die Gewichtszunahmen in den Gruppen 1, 2 und 3 waren reduziert. Ein verminderter Futterverzehr wurde in den Gruppen 1 und 6 beobachtet. Die Futterverwertung sank in den Gruppen 1, 5 und 6. In allen 7 Gruppen war das Gewicht der Faeces erhöht.
    Notes: Summary Seven types of diets commonly consumed in Egypt were studied in hyperlipemic rats. Each of the seven diets were fed to a group of hyperlipemic rats. The diets contain white beans and whole wheat bread (Diet 1); cabbage and peas (2); spinach and carrots (3); whole wheat bread and bean sprouts (4); whole wheat bread, white beans and peas (5); white beans and carrots (6) and the last diet contains peas and carrots (7). The experiment continued for 5 weeks, at the the of which different plasma lipids and biological parameters were compared to hyperlipemic rats fed the control diet for 5 weeks. Results showed that plasma total cholesterol of rats of all groups showed significant decrease, except in rats fed diet 6 in which no significant change was noticed. Plasma total lipids of rats fed diet 5 decreased significantly. Plasma phospholipids of rats fed diets 3 and 7 increased significantly. Rats fed diet 3 showed decreased levels of plasma high density lipoprotein-cholesterol. Body weight gain of rats fed diets 1, 2 and 3 decreased significantly. Total food intake was noticed to decrease on feeding diets 1 and 6. Significant decrease was produced in food efficiency ratio of rats fed diets 1, 5 and 6. Feeding any type of the previous seven diets produced significant increase of feces weight.

    Notes: Abstract A fresh ligamentous occipito-atlanto-axial (C0-C1-C2) complex was appropriately prepared and serially sectioned into thin slices along the transverse planes. The bony outlines from these slices were digitized and assembled in the proper manner to obtain a three-dimensional model of the complex using the AutoCAD® system. Various ligaments were identified on the model and strains in individual fibers of a ligament were predicted based on the principles of rigid body mechanics. The ligament behaviors in axial rotation, flexion, and extension modes were analyzed. The capsular ligament fibers were predicted to undergo strains in all modes. Furthermore, these ligaments experienced the largest strain among the ligaments analyzed. Fibers within a ligament were found to respond differently; some were more active than the others and some did not experience any strain at all. A differential behavior in the right and left side alar ligament fibers was also found in axial rotation. The transverse ligament was predicted to wrap around the dens during axial rotation. The strain within a fiber was found to be a function of the initial length (ligament laxity) and its distance from the center of rotation.

    Notes: Polyethyleneimine (PEIM) samples crosslinked by a commercial epoxy resin (Epon 828) were prepared, and their adsorption capacity for acidic gases was studied. The swelling and deswelling characteristics of the crosslinked samples were also examined as part of this program. Reactivation of these adsorbents could be carried out by heat, or by a combination of heat and treatment in dilute alkalies.

    Notes: Summary The presence and distribution of bombesin-like material were investigated in the brain of the cartilaginous fishScyliorhinus canicula using conventional immunocytochemical techniques. Perikarya containing bombesin-like immunoreactivity were identified in the hypothalamus, within the magnocellular component of the preoptic nucleus. Some immunopositive elements appeared to be of cerebrospinal fluid-contacting type. Beaded immunoreactive fibers were seen crossing the ventral telencephalon and the whole hypothalamus. An important tract of fibers was found in the infundibular floor and in the median eminence, in close contact with the vascular system of the pituitary portal plexus. A moderate number of positive fibers innervated the habenular complex and the dorsal wall of the posterior tuberculum. These findings indicate that a neuropeptide strictly related to amphibian bombesin is located in specific hypothalamic neurons ofS. canicula. The distribution of the immunoreactive fibers and terminals suggests that, in fish, this peptide, may be involved in neuroendocrine and neuromodulator functions.

    Notes: Abstract The properties of gel-spun polyethylene fibers hot-drawn to the maximum draw ratio depend on the spinning conditions. Different spinning conditions result in two types of structure in the paraffin oil containing fibers: an isotropic lamellar structure or a shish-kebab structure. Meridional SAXS experiments can identify the structure present. After extraction, these structures are still present but can be detected only in a more indirect way by SAXS experiments because of an excessive contribution of void scattering. During hot-drawing both structures are transformed into a more fibrillar structure. The shish-kebab structures can be drawn only to relatively low hot-draw ratios with an incomplete transformation of the lamellar overgrowth into the fibrils, as demonstrated by the presence of a meridional SAXS maximum/shoulder. This leads to relatively weak fibers. Lamellar structures can be drawn to high draw ratios by chain unfolding. A nearly complete transformation of the lamellae into fibrils is obtained and the fibers have excellent properties. The information about the morphology obtained by SAXS, DSC, WAXS, and SEM can be used to establish a relation between morphology and properties.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La croissance de la carapace deStrongylocentrotus intermedius est étudiée à l'aide de la tétracycline. Des specimens de l'été ne présentent pas de fluorescence dans les plaques, sauf dans le système apical et les régions voisines. Un faisceau d'éléments fibreux, présentant une autofluorescence blanche laiteuse, est orienté perpendiculairement à chaque ligne de suture. Les spécimens de l'hiver ne présentent ces éléments qu'après décalcification des coupes. La croissance de chaque plaque, chez ces derniers s'effectue de la façon suivante: suture longitudinale » surface interne = mamelon et bosse du tubercule 〉 suture transversale 〉 surface externe de la base de l'épine dorsale 〉 surface externe de la plaque. La carapace adulte augmente de taille selon deux mécanismes de croissance: d'une part, par adjonction de nouvelles plaques au système apical et, d'autre part, par apposition sur des régions données de chaque plaque. Il apparait que des éléments fibreux sont intéressés par la croissance de la carapace et qu'un mécanisme différent de croissance s'observe dans les carapaces de l'été et de l'hiver. Le système apical semble se calcifier selon un mécanisme spécifique qui permet une formation active de plaques nouvelles pendant toute l'année.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Das Wachstum des Skeletes vonStrongylocentrotus intermedius wurde mit Hilfe von Tetracyclin untersucht. Bei Sommerexemplaren konnte die Tetracyclinfluorescenz in den Platten nicht beobachtet werden, außer im apicalen System und seiner anliegenden Umgebung. Eine Menge von fibrösen Elementen mit einer milchig-weißen Autofluorescenz war senkrecht zu jeder Nahtlinie angeordnet. Bei Winterexemplaren waren diese Elemente nur in demineralisierten Schnitten deutlich sichtbar. Der Wachstumsgradient jeder Platte war bei Winterexemplaren der folgende: Longitudinalnaht » innere Oberfläche = Terminalknopf und Hals der Tuberkel 〉 Latitudinalnaht 〉 Oberfläche der Basis des Stachels 〉 äußere Oberfläche der Platte selbst. Das ausgewachsene Skelet als Ganzes vergrößert seinen Umfang auf zwei Wachstumsarten, einerseits durch Zusatz von neuen Platten zum apikalen System, anderseits durch Zuwachs an bestimmten Stellen von jeder Platte. Die Resultate lassen vermuten, daß fibröse Elemente am Skeletwachstum beteiligt sind und daß der Mechanismus dieses Wachstums bei Sommer- und bei Winterexemplaren verschieden ist. Es wäre denkbar, daß das apikale System auf einen spezifischen Mechanismus der Verkalkung ansprechen würde, welcher eine aktive Bildung neuer Platten während des ganzen Jahres erlaubt.
    Notes: Abstract Growth of the test ofStrongylocentrotus intermedius was examined with the aid of tetracycline. In summer specimens, tetracycline fluorescence was not observable in the plates, except in the apical system and its adjacent area. An array of fibrous elements with a milky white autofluorescence was oriented perpendicularly to each suture line. In winter specimens the elements were evident only in demineralized sections. The growth gradient of each plate estimated on winter specimens was as follows: longitudinal sture » inner surface = mammelon and part of boss in tubercle 〉 latitudinal suture 〉 outer surface of base of spine shaft 〉 outer surface of plate itself. The mature test as a whole increases in size by two modes of growth, an addition of new plates to the apical system and an accretion on fixed sites of each plate. The results suggest that fibrous elements are involved in the test growth, and that there is a different mechanism of the test growth between summer and winter specimens. The apical system may be equipped with a specific mechanism of calcification which permits an active formation of new plates throughout the year.

    Notes: Summary The vitreous body of the rat eye was studied by scanning electron microscopy. The freeze-dried specimens were either unfixed, freshly frozen or fixed and rinsed before being frozen. The vitreous body is surrounded by a coat of intercellular material covering a thin sheath of chiefly parallel fibers. The latter forms the base for a regularly organized three-dimensional network of fibers. The interfibrillar spaces are filled with ground substance and also contain a few cells. The shape of the cells varies from bipolar to polyhedronal. Their interconnected processes are usually undivided. The functional importance of this complex regular organization of the fibers and cells in the vitreous body is stressed.

    Notes: High molecular weight poly-β-amides with fiber-forming properties (repeating unit—NH—CR2—CR2—CO—) differ from the polyamides of the nylon series in that the amide groups are much more closely spaced. These polymers are thus the nearest of the synthetic polyamides to natural silk. The production of poly-β-amides was made possible by a recent synthesis of β-lactams from olefins and chlorosulfonyl isocyanate. The anionic polymerization of the β-lactams gives poly-β-amides containing up to 10 000 monomer units in the chain. The molecular weight can be controlled as desired by means of initiators and chain terminators, and the properties can be varied within wide limits by the choice of the β-lactam or by copolymerization of several β-lactams. Remarkable differences are observed between polymers containing structural units in the threo form and those containing erythro structural units. The poly-β-amides can be spun into fibers having valuable textile properties.

    Notes: The formation of free radicals during the process of drawing of spun fibers was observed for the first time with two polyoxamides. The fibers turn red, and an ESR signal can be detected. Both, color and ESR absorption are not permanent. The decrease in the intensity of the ESR absorption and the change in the optical reflectance with time, as well as the dependence of the decoloration on temperature were investigated. The action of high-energy radiation on the polyoxamides also leads to a red coloration and gives rise to ESR signals. It is concluded that the red color is due to free radicals associated with the oxamido group.
