    Notizen: Abstract Eight adult cats of either sex were studied. The minimal alveolar concentration (MAC) for sevoflurane in the cats was found to be 2.58 ± 0.30% (mean ± SD). The ratios of MAC values between sevoflurane and halothane, enflurane and isoflurane in cats were very similar to those ratios found in humans and dogs. This observation suggests that the results of this study are correct and allows us to estimate unknown MAC values for sevoflurane in other species using known MAC values for other anesthetic agents.

    Notizen: Abstract Two methods were used to induce a model of experimental hydrocephalus and hydrosyringomyelia in the cat: a) injection of kaolin into the cisterna magna and b) closure of the lateral apertures of the fourth ventricle with cotton swabs. The pathological changes in the brain ventricles and the central canal of the spinal cord were monitored and documented at regular intervals by computed tomography (CT). The CT method is particularly advantageous for studies of this kind because the animals can be examined frequently without risking disturbances in cerebro-spinal fluid dynamics or tissue damage that would result from introduction of contrast media into the ventricular system. Our results and others reported earlier suggest that the dilated central canal acts as a kind of spontaneous CSF deviation route from the ventricles to the subarachnoid space. In spite of the tendency of the animals to recover in a clinical sense, the internal CSF space continued to expand; in cats the disease is progressive, a fact that is readily evident in follow-up CTs. This characteristic indicates that the spontaneous “shunt system” from the fourth ventricle through the dilated central canal to the spinal CSF spaces does not function well enough. Possible explanations for hydrocephalus compensation and the development of hydrosyringomyelia in experimental animals are discussed.

    Notizen: Summary The mamillary body and the medial amygdaloid nucleus of cats anaesthetized with sodium pentobarbital were bilaterally and simultaneously superfused through push-pull cannulae with CSF and the release of endogenous histamine was determined in the superfusates. Collection of the superfusates in 10 min time periods revealed that histamine was rhythmically released in the two areas with frequencies of one cycle/90 min (mamillary body) or one cycle/135 min (medial amygdaloid nucleus). Collection of the superfusates in time periods of 2 min revealed the existence of an additional ultradian rhythm with a frequency of approximately one cycle/19 min in both areas. Bilateral lesions of the suprachiasmatic nucleus did not seem to influence the pattern of histamine release in the mamillary body and the medial amygdaloid nucleus, but the rate of histamine release was decreased in the mamillary body. It is concluded that the ultradian rhythms of histamine release in the mamillary body and the medial amygdaloid nucleus are not dependent on the integrity of the suprachiasmatic nucleus. The rate of histamine release in the mamillary body seems to be under the influence of excitatory neurons which originate from the suprachiasmatic nucleus.

    Notizen: Summary By means of retrograde transport of the wheat germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase complex, afferent fibres to the lateral reticular nucleus from the oculomotor and accessory oculomotor nuclei were demonstrated in the cat. Small iontophoretic ejections were made into the main part of the lateral reticular nucleus from a ventral approach. Significant numbers of retrogradely labelled neurons were found bilaterally in all parts of the oculomotor nucleus. The majority was of small size and distributed along the dorsal and lateral boundaries of the nucleus. Some labelled neurons were located just outside these boundaries, in the periaqueductal gray and the adjacent mesencephalic reticular formation. Retrogradely labelled neurons were also found in the accessory oculomotor nuclei: The interstitial nucleus of Cajal featured a substantial number of labelled neurons. Some labelled neurons were consistently found also in the nucleus of the posterior commissure, but no labelled neurons were found in the nucleus of Darkschewitch. The labelled neurons in the interstitial nucleus of Cajal were of different sizes and located bilaterally, mainly in its rostral part. Caudal as well as rostral parts of the main lateral reticular nucleus appear to receive the descending afferents from the oculomotor region, but higher numbers of labelled neurons were found subsequent to ejections in the rostral part. The findings are discussed and some comments are made concerning the lateral reticular nucleus as a possible relay nucleus for oculomotor input to the cerebellum.

    Notizen: Summary The three-dimensional fiber pathways of the accessory optic system in the rabbit, cat, dog and monkey were studied in whole-mounted preparations of the diencephalon and the midbrain, without sectioning, by anterograde labeling of retinal axons with horseradish peroxidase (HRP). HRP histochemical studies on alternate serial coronal sections were also performed. The rabbit accessory optic system exhibited two fasciculi (the inferior fasciculus, and the superior fasciculus consisting of the anterior fibers and the posterior fibers) and three terminal nuclei (the medial terminal nucleus, and the anterior and posterior porcions of the lateral terminal nucleus), but lacked the dorsal terminal nucleus. In the cat and dog, only the posterior fibers of the superior fasciculus were detected. The inferior fasciculus and the anterior fibers of the superior fasciculus were absent. The medial terminal nucleus and the posterior portion of the lateral terminal nucleus were commonly observed in the cat and dog. The cat accessory optic system possessed the dorsal terminal nucleus, and the dog accessory optic system possessed the anterior portion of the lateral terminal nucleus. The monkey (Macaca fuscata) accessory optic system consisted of the posterior fibers of the superior fasciculus, but blacked the inferior fasciculus and the anterior fibers of the superior fasciculus. Most of the posterior fibers terminated in the well-developed posterior portion of the lateral terminal nucleus located on the upper surface of the cerebral peduncle. A small number of posterior fibers projected to the poorly-developed medial terminal nucleus. Based on these findings, species differences in the mammalian accessory optic system were discussed.

    Notizen: Summary The cytoarchitecture of the feline oculomotor nucleus was examined in sections stained with thionin and neutral red. Five different subdivisions (caudal central, paramedian, ventral, dorsomedial and dorsolateral divisions) can be identified on each side of the midline. This observation is discussed, and our findings are compared to previous studies of the cytoarchitecture or central muscular representation of the oculomotor nucleus in which different subgroups have been distinguished. Implants or injections of the wheat germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase complex have revealed that all five subdivisions project to different parts of the cerebellar cortex and nuclei. Retrogradely labelled cells were found in the oculomotor nucleus in 18 cases following deposition of tracer in the fastigial and interposed nuclei and certain regions of the anterior, posterior and flocculonodular lobes. The projection is bilateral and appears to have its main termination in flocculus. It originates from small neurons, especially from those located along the dorsal border of the oculomotor nucleus.

    Notizen: Summary The distribution of cell bodies and the peripheral course of axons of infrahyoid motoneurons were examined in the cat by the retrograde horseradish peroxidase method after application of the enzyme to the peripheral nerve branches supplying the infrahyoid muscles. Infrahyoid motoneurons were observed to constitute a slender cell column, which extended from a level of the caudal part of the hypoglossal nucleus usually to the most caudal level of the C1 cord segment, or occasionally to the lower levels of the C2 cord segment. The cell column was located immediately lateral to that of motoneurons of the spinal accessory nerve. In the cell column, thyrohyoid motoneurons were distributed in the medulla oblongata; sternohyoid motoneurons were located somewhat more cranially than sternothyroid motoneurons in the medulla oblongata and cervical cord. However, the level of craniocaudal distribution of thyrohyoid, sternohyoid or sternothyroid motoneurons highly overlapped. The experiments involving severance of the hypoglossal and/or cervical nerves indicated that axons of thyrohyoid and sternohyoid motoneurons passed via the roots of both hypoglossal and C1 nerves, that axons of sternohyoid motoneurons passed via the C1 nerve roots, and that axons of infrahyoid motoneurons innervating the conjugated part of the sternohyoid and sternothyroid muscles passed usually via the C1 nerve roots, or occasionally via the roots of both C1 and C2 nerves.

    Notizen: Summary The cerebellar projection from the Edinger-Westphal nucleus was studied in the cat by means of retrograde transport of the wheat germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase complex. The present findings give evidence that the flocculus is the main terminal area. However, small tracer implants and injections into various parts of the cerebellar nuclei and cortex revealed projections also to the fastigial and interposed nuclei and to most parts of the anterior and posterior lobe cortices. The projecting neurons are small and located bilaterally throughout the Edinger-Westphal nucleus. No topical differences between the projections to different parts of the cerebellum were found.

    Notizen: Summary Among the newly discovered spinocerebellar cell groups, those at lumbar and more caudal levels of the cat's spinal cord were studied with regard to which of the two cerebellar peduncles, the restiform body or the superior cerebellar peduncle, is used by their axons. Bilateral injections with horseradish peroxidase were made into either of the anterior lobe or the posterior cerebellar termination area for spinocerebellar fibers, following unilateral transections of either the superior cerebellar peduncle or the restiform body, combined with low contralateral transections of the lateral and ventral funiculi. Following transection of the superior cerebellar peduncle, labeled neurons were found ipsilateral to the transection in the column of Clarke and in laminae IV–VI at L 3–L 7. Contralaterally, labeled neurons were found in the ventromedial nucleus and lamina VIII of the ventral horn in the sacro-coccygeal segments and in the medial part of lamina VII at L 6 and more caudal levels. All these neurons were regarded as sending their axons through the restiform body. Following transection of the restiform body, labeled neurons were found in the following areas contralateral to the transection: the dorsolateral nucleus of the L 3–L 6 segments, the lateral part of lamina VII at L 3–L 5/6, the medial part of lamina VII in L 6 and more caudal segments, and the ventrolateral nucleus of L 4–L 5. Ipsilaterally, labeled neurons were found in lamina VIII at L 4–L 6. All these neurons were regarded as sending their axons through the superior cerebellar peduncle. In addition to new information about the peduncular routes of spinocerebellar neurons, the study has given confirming evidence as to the crossing conditions for different spinocerebellar cell groups. The findings should be useful in future studies on the organization of the spinocerebellar systems.

    Notizen: Summary The collateral projections of spinocerebellar neurons located in the L 2 to Ca 1 spinal segments in the cat were investigated by retrograde fluorescent double labeling technique. Rhodamine labeled latex microspheres (Rm) and Fast Blue (FB) were used for injections into the cerebellum in 8 cats. Two additional cats, with injections of Fluoro-Gold (FG) combined with Rm were excluded because lipofuchsin autofluorescence obscured the labeling. After injections with one tracer unilaterally in the paramedian lobule and another tracer bilaterally in the anterior lobe, double labeled neurons were found on the side of the paramedian lobule injection in the column of Clarke at L 2–L 4, laminae IV–VI at L 2–L 5 and the dorsolateral nucleus at L 2–L 6. After bilateral injections of one tracer in lobule VIII B and another in the anterior lobe, double labeled neurons were found bilaterally in the column of Clarke at L 2–L 4, laminae IV–VI at L 2–L 5, the medial part of lamina VII at L 6–L 7 and in certain cell groups at sacro-coccygeal levels. Neurons in the lateral part of lamina VII at L 3–L 5 and the ventrolateral nucleus of L 4–L 5 were labeled exclusively from injections in the anterior lobe. The findings indicate that spinocerebellar neurons at lumbar and more caudal levels of the cat spinal cord have different projection patterns in the cerebellum. A certain number of neurons which project to the anterior lobe have divergent axon collaterals supplying also the posterior vermis and/or the paramedian lobule. Other neurons project to the anterior or to the posterior lobe only.

    Notizen: Summary Unit activites of secondary vestibular neurons that selectively responded to stimulation of the anterior semicircular canal nerve (ACN) were recorded extracellularly in the anesthetized cat. Axonal pathways and projections in the spinal cord of the ACN-activated neurons were examined by recording their antidromic responses to stimulation of the lateral and medial vestibulospinal tracts (LVST and MVST), and the bilateral neck extensor motoneuron pools in the C1segment (C1dorsal rami [DR] motoneuron pools). In order to determine whether the neurons had ascending axon collaterals to the extraocular motoneurons, the contralateral (c-) inferior oblique (IO) motoneuron pool was also stimulated. Twenty-seven neurons sent their axons to the ipsilateral (i-) C1DR motoneuron pool via the LVST without any projection to the extraocular motoneuron pool. All the cells except one were located in the ventral part of the lateral vestibular nucleus. This pathway produced monosynaptic EPSPs with short time-to-peak and short half-width in C1DR motoneurons (16/16 motoneurons). Eight neurons sent axons to the i-C1DR motoneuron pool via the MVST without any to the extraocular motoneuron pool. Cell somata were located in the descending nucleus or in the ventral part of the lateral nucleus. These neurons did not produce postsynaptic potentials (PSPs) in any C1DR motoneurons. All thirty-five neurons sending axons to the c-C1DR motoneuron pool have ascending axon collaterals to the c-IO motoneuron pool.

    Notizen: Summary The spatial frequency tuning curves of neurones of area 18 depend upon the velocity of the visual stimulus. The higher the velocity the lower the spatial frequencies to which the cell is tuned. Since in area 17 the size of the cell receptive field is inversely related with the optimal spatial frequency to which the cell responds, we have investigated whether the shift of the optimal spatial frequency with the velocity corresponds to a “change” in the receptive field size. We recorded extracellularly from neurones in area 18; for each cell we selected two gratings, one of high spatial frequency drifting at low velocity and another of low spatial frequency drifting at high velocity to which the cell gave comparable responses. The results show that the masking of the cells receptive field which abolishes the response to the high frequency low velocity grating does not prevent the cell from responding to the low frequency high velocity grating. We conclude that the size of the receptive field of neurones in area 18 depends upon the characteristics (spatial frequency and velocity) of the visual stimulus.

    Notizen: Summary In the visual cortex of four adult cats ocular dominance and orientation columns were visualized with (3H)proline and (14C)deoxyglucose autoradiography. The two columnar systems were reconstructed from serial horizontal sections or from flat-mount preparations and graphically superimposed. They share a number of characteristic features: In both systems the columns have a tendency to form regularly spaced parallel bands whose main trajectory is perpendicular to the border between areas 17 and 18. These bands frequently bifurcate or terminate in blind endings. The resulting irregularities are much more pronounced in the ocular dominance than in the orientation system. The periodicity of the columnar patterns was assessed along trajectories perpendicular to the main orientation of the bands and differed in the two columnar systems. The spacing of the ocular dominance stripes was significantly narrower than the spacing of orientation bands. The mean periodicity of a particular columnar system was virtually identical in the two hemispheres of the same animal but it differed substantially in different animals. However, the spacing of orientation columns covaried with that of the ocular dominance columns, the ratios of the mean spacings of the two columnar systems being similar in the four cats. The superposition of the two columnar systems revealed no obvious topographic relation between any of the organizational details such as the location of bifurcations, blind endings and intersections. We suggest the following conclusions: 1. The developmental processes generating the two columnar systems seem to obey the same algorithms but they act independently of each other. 2. The space constants of the two systems are rigorously specified and appear to depend on a common variable. 3. The main orientation of the bands in both columnar systems is related to a) the representation of the vertical meridian, b) the anisotropy of the cortical magnification factor, and c) the tangential spread of intracortical connections.

    Notizen: Summary The effect of the direction of unexpected horizontal perturbations of stance on the organization of automatic postural responses was studied in cats. We recorded EMG activity in eight proximal and distal muscles of the hindlimb along with vertical forces imposed by the limbs in awake behaving cats while they stood on an hydraulic platform. Postural responses to motion of the platform in 16 different horizontal directions were recorded. Vertical force changes were consistent with passive shifts of the center of mass and active correction of stance by the animals. When the perturbation was in the sagittal plane, vertical force changes began about 65 ms following initial platform movement. When the perturbation contained a component in the lateral direction, latency for vertical force changes was about 25 ms and an inflection in the vertical force trace was observed at 65 ms. No EMG responses were observed with latencies that were short enough to account for the early force component and it was concluded that this force change was due to passive shifts of the center of mass. The amplitude of the EMG responses of each muscle recorded varied systematically as perturbation direction changed. The directions for which an individual muscle showed measurable EMG activity were termed the muscle's “angular range of activation.” No angular range of activation was oriented strictly in the A-P or lateral directions. Most muscles displayed angular ranges of activation that encompassed a range of less than 180°. Onset latencies of EMG responses also varied systematically with perturbation direction. The amplitude and latency relationships between muscles, which made up the organization of postural responses, also varied systematically as perturbation direction was changed. This result suggests that direction of perturbation determines organizational makeup of postural responses, and for displacements in the horizontal plane, is considered a continuous variable by the nervous system.

    Notizen: Summary Previous studies showed that after complete hindlimb deafferentation in cats, the ipsilateral descending pathways mediated recovery of overground, goal-directed locomotion and accurate placement of the deafferented limb. In the present study deafferentations sparing one dorsal root (L6) were performed to see if the descending systems would still be responsible for the recovery. The partially deafferented hindlimb is initially impaired in postural reflexes and accurate placement during locomotion but considerable recovery occurs. A similar pattern of severe impairment and subsequent recovery is observed in cats in which the only lesion is L1 hemisection. When a hemisection is added 6 months later to chronic spared-root deafferentation the recovery (from the latter lesion) is temporarily reversed but the animals recover again in a fashion similar to that after hemisection alone. Since there is no recovery of overground locomotion when hemisection is added to complete deafferentation but there is when deafferentation is incomplete, the descending pathways apparently are not responsible for maintaining the recovery when one dorsal root is spared as they are when all are cut. The results suggest that a competitive or hierarchical control over residual systems may regulate recovery of motor function.

    Notizen: Summary Unit activities of 148 secondary vestibular neurons related to the posterior semicircular canal were recorded extracellularly in anesthetized cats. Axonal projections of these neurons were examined by their antidromic responses to stimulation of the excitatory target motoneurons of the contralateral (c-) inferior rectus muscle (IR) and bilateral (bi-) motoneuron pools of longus capitis muscles, neck flexors, in the C1 segment (C1LC). The neurons were classified into 4 groups according to their axonal projections. The first group of neurons, termed vestibulo-oculo-collic (VOC) neurons, sent axon collaterals both to the c-IR motoneuron pool and to the c-C1LC motoneuron pool. The majority of them (72%) were located in the descending nucleus. The second group of neurons were termed vestibuloocular (VO) neurons and sent their axons to the c-IR motoneuron pool but not to the cervical cord. Most of them (86%) were located in the medial nucleus. The third group of neurons, termed vestibulo-collic (contralateral) (VCc) neurons, sent axons to the cC 1LC motoneuron pool via the contralateral ventral funiculus but not to the oculomotor nuclei. They were mostly (75%) found in the descending nucleus. The last group of neurons were vestibulo-collic (ipsilateral) (VCi) neurons, which gave off axons to the ipsilateral (i-) C1LC motoneuron pool via the ipsilateral ventral funiculus but not to the oculomotor nuclei. One of them also sent an axon collateral to the c-C1LC motoneuron pool. The majority of them (74%) were located in the ventral part of the lateral nucleus. It was also observed in some of the VOC and VCi neurons that they produced unitary EPSPs in the c-C1LC and i-C1LC motoneurons, respectively. Their synaptic sites were estimated to be on the cell somata and/or proximal dendrites of the motoneurons.

    Notizen: Summary Neuronal responses were recorded extracellularly in the preoptic region of 11 male castrate cats following stimulation in the ‘medial’ group of amygdalar nuclei (medial, basomedial, basolateral). The latency of responses varied with the site of stimulation and could be explained if connections to the preoptic region were made through both the stria terminalis and the ventral amygdalofugal pathway. Projection of 13% of orthodromically excited preoptic units to the medial basal hypothalamus was established by collision tests following stimulation in these regions. The amygdalar excitation was probably exerted through the amygdalofugal pathway. In 5/6 cats the amygdalar stimulation was successfully used to raise plasma LH levels. In one cat no preoptic units projecting to the medial basal hypothalamus were found and in the cat which failed to increase plasma LH in response to amygdala stimulation, 5 such units were found. We conclude the pathway from the amygdala through the preoptic region to the hypothalamus may not be the way in which amygdalar stimulation affects LH release in the cat. Projection of 10% of orthodromically excited preoptic units in the medial forebrain bundle was established by collision tests in 3 cats. These identified units were driven from amygdalar sites thought to project to the preoptic region by ventral amygalofugal pathways.

    Notizen: Summary Anatomical structures of the cat retina were related to functional changes induced by the application of dopaminergic and serotonergic substances. We report on the contribution of dopaminergic and serotonin accumulating retinal neurones to retinal activity as reflected by the electroretinogram. The effect of dopaminergic neurones was investigated by the application of the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) which is known to destroy dopaminergic neurones, and injections of either serotonin (5-HT) or the analogue 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine (5,6-DHT) were used to monitor the effects of indoleamines. In control experiments aminophosphonobutyric acid (APB), an agonist of glutamate transmission, was injected. Conventional immunohistochemical methods identified dopaminergic and serotonin accumulating neurones, and the electrophysiological data obtained from the same animals were related to the anatomical structures influenced by the respective substances. Destruction of dopaminergic amacrine cells by 6-OHDA increased the ERG b-wave amplitude. Accumulation of indoleamines by certain amacrine cells also caused an increase of the ERG b-wave. However, intravitreal injection of APB completely blocked the bwave. The data show that ERG mass responses can be used to monitor transmitter-specific effects on retinal circuitry.

    Notizen: Summary The distributions of μ, δ, and χ opiate receptors within visual regions in the cat cortex, thalamus and midbrain were determined by in vitro autoradiography. The overall distribution of receptors was examined using [3H]-etorphine, a ligand that nonselectively labels all types of opiate receptors. [3H]-[D-Ala2, N-Me-Phe4, Gly(ol)5]-enkephalin (DAGO) was used to selectively label μ receptors, [3H]-[D-Pen2,5]-enkephalin (DPDPE) for δ receptors, and [3H]-bremazocine for χ receptors. Each of the areas examined showed clear opiate receptor binding with [3H]-etorphine and a differential distribution of μ, δ, and χ receptors. Compared to other cortical regions, opiate binding in layers 3 and 4 of areas 17 and 18 was sparse. In the adjacent areas a more uniform distribution across layers was observed. The density of χ opiate receptors was greater in cortex than in subcortical structures, whereas the reverse was the case for μ receptors. Nevertheless, all three types of opiate receptors were found in the ventral and dorsal subdivisions of the lateral geniculate (LGN), the pulvinar complex, and the suprageniculate nucleus. In the midbrain, the superficial layers of the superior colliculus were heavily labelled with the μ, receptor ligand, and modestly with the χ ligand. Compared with other midbrain and diencephalic areas, δ binding was low in the superior colliculus. These results suggest that the diverse effects of opiates on visual perception are mediated by the unique distributions of opiate receptor types throughout the visual areas in the brain.

    Notizen: Summary We have recorded from single cells in the perigeniculate nucleus (PGN) of the cat to determine their response properties. Quantitative tests have been conducted with sinusoidal gratings. Using optimal stimulus parameters, determined monocularly, we explored binocular interaction by varying the relative phase between dichoptically presented gratings. Monocularly, cells exhibit varying degrees of response specificities with respect to stimulus orientation and spatial frequency. Binocularly, we have identified six types of response. The most prominent, type 1, found for half the cells, is phase-specific binocular interaction at the fundamental frequency component of the drifting grating. For these cells, mean response rate is independent of interocular phase. The remaining types of binocular responses involve varying degrees of interaction at different harmonic components. For a quarter of the sample, no binocular interaction was observed. To investigate the role of cortical input to PGN, visual cortex was removed from some cats. Subsequent study of PGN cells indicated that response properties were generally similar to those found in intact animals. We conclude that PGN response properties are determined primarily by subcortical inputs.

    Notizen: Summary In anaesthetized cats, single units were recorded from the ventrolateral part of n. medialis dorsalis (MD) of the thalamus. Cells were tested for their ortho- or antidromic short latency responses to single electrical shocks applied to the pericruciate cortex (PCx) and to either the mesencephalic ventral tegmental area (VTA) or the nucleus accumbens (ACC). Some reciprocal direct connections were thus shown to exist between MD and PCx, i.e. a cortical area posterior to the main classical MD “prefrontal” projection zone. Reciprocal direct connections were also identified physiologically between MD and VTA and between MD and ACC. Coupled stimulations showed that some MD cells could serve as a relay for a pathway from VTA to cortex, others for a reciprocal pathway from PCx to VTA, and still others, for a pathway from PCx to ACC. These findings are compared to previous — mostly anatomical — data obtained in other species, mainly rat. Their functional meaning is also discussed, in the light of previous results on the roles of MD, VTA and ACC in the control of immobility during focused attentive behaviour in cat.

    Notizen: Summary Radioligand binding assays, receptor autoradiography and iontophoresis have been used to look for evidence of a nicotinic component to the actions of acetylcholine in cat visual cortex. [3H]Nicotine bound to a uniform population of high affinity binding sites in cat primary visual cortex. This binding was inhibited by nicotine agonists and antagonists but not muscarinic antagonists. The concentration of nicotinic binding sites was about 10% of that of muscarinic binding sites measured with [3H]N-methylscopolamine. The muscarinic sites were resolved into M1 and M2 subtypes. Quantitative receptor autoradiography showed that there were muscarinic sites in all layers, although they were least abundant in layer IV of area 17. In contrast, the nicotinic sites were most concentrated in layer IV in area 17. The concentration of this labelling was reduced at the 17/18 border and also at the 18/19 border. Layer I of the cingulate and suprasylvian gyri were also labelled. Electrolytic lesions of the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) led to a loss of nicotinic binding sites in layer IV of area 17, indicating that these sites are most likely located on the LGN terminals. Iontophoresis of mecamylamine, a nicotinic antagonist, decreased evoked responses in visual cortex, providing evidence that the [3H]nicotine binding sites are functional receptors and suggesting that the release of acetylcholine onto these receptors on the LGN terminals facilitates the input of visual information into visual cortex.

    Notizen: Summary The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) operates to stabilize the eyes in space during movements of the head. The system has been described as having a gain of approximately -1 since stimulation of the semi-circular canals brought about by head movements will have the effect of causing the eyes to rotate an equal amount in the opposite direction. Change in the gain of the VOR has been put forth as a model to study plasticity in the central nervous system. Since numerous studies have implicated norepinephrine (NE) in neuroplasticity and modifiability of neural circuits, we attempted to determine the effect of NE depletion (via 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) intra-cisternal injection) on the modifiability of the VOR. We have found that cats increase the gain of their VOR over a four hour period when rotated in the horizontal plane in a manner equal but opposite to the rotation of a surrounding opto-kinetic drum. The entire group of animals manifests a statistically significant decrement in their ability to increase VOR gain when central stores of norepinephrine are depleted via intra-cisternal injection of 6-OHDA. Individual animals manifest a wide variety of gain changes (0.98 to 1.62). We have found that there were two groups of cats — high and low gain modifiers. The greatest reduction in VOR gain increase after NE depletion was observed in the high gain modifiers. No difference was observed in the low gain modifiers. These same animals tested for VOR modification after amphetamine injection, produced similar results. Alertness during the VOR modification task, as estimated by saccadic eye movement counts, was unchanged after NE depletion. NE levels, measured by HPLC-EC, after depletion were reduced to the greatest extent in the cerebellum. There was also a substantial reduction of NE in the visual cortex with less of a reduction in the brain stem.

    Notizen: Summary Voiced vocalizations evoked by hypothalamic stimulation were studied in a series of six awake adult cats. Electrical stimulation was found to evoke vocalizations at numerous sites within the hypothalamus, ranging from A+8 to A+16. Regions showing the largest number of responsive sites were the preoptic region, the ventromedial area, the perifornical region, the lateral and the dorso-medial hypothalamus. The form of the evoked calls was generally similar to the spontaneous calls of the same animal. Call latency, duration, and intensity were not significantly affected by changes in stimulus intensity or duration but all three of these call parameters were significantly affected by changes in stimulus frequency. In general, call latency was longest at sites in the rostral hypothalamus and shortest at sites in the caudal hypothalamus. This study is the first to investigate systematically voiced call producing areas in the hypothalamus of awake cats and to document similarities between these calls and spontaneously produced voiced calls.

    Notizen: Summary Single-cell recording experiments were carried out to determine whether rearing kittens with surgically induced convergent strabismus (esotropia) alters the development of receptive field (RF) properties of neurons in area 18. In agreement with previous work on kittens with divergent strabismus (exotropia), there was a marked loss of binocularly driven cells in area 18 of esotropic cats. In contrast to the striate cortex of strabismic cats, the spatial properties of area 18 neurons, including receptive-field size and spatial frequency tuning, did not differ from those in normal controls. On the other hand, we found that contrast thresholds, measured at an optimal spatial frequency, were significantly elevated, and that the contrast gain in many cells was reduced in strabismic cats. These deficits were observed in both eyes, though the cells dominated by the deviating eye had a lower response amplitude at all contrasts. Furthermore, temporal frequency tuning curves were abnormal in strabismic cats in that the optimal frequencies and temporal resolutions were shifted to lower values. These effects were also bilateral. Velocity tuning, measured with a high-contrast bar stimulus, revealed that area 18 neurons in strabismic cats were unable to respond to very high velocities compared to normals. This reduced response was more severe when measured with the deviating eye in spite of the bilateral nature of the deficit. Finally, latencies to electrical stimulation of the optic chiasm or the optic radiation were significantly longer in strabismic cats. The magnitude of these effects was virtually the same for both eyes. From these observations, we conclude that the temporal properties of area 18 neurons, particularly the cells abilities to follow fast temporal modulations, are affected by raising kittens with surgically induced convergent strabismus.

    Notizen: Summary The acuities of X-cells from the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) were measured in five cats raised with a convergent strabismus, surgically induced by tenotomy. The acuities of cells driven by the strabismic eye were not significantly different from the acuities of cells driven by the non-deviating eye over the range of eccentricities in the visual field studied (from the area centralis to over 20°). The data were also similar to X-cell acuities in the LGN of 3 normal cats. Lowered acuities of LGN X-cells driven by the deviating eye of an esotropic cat in which the strabismus was created by myectomy confirm a previous finding of a retinal locus of amblyopia associated with that preparation. In contrast, the results here implicate the visual cortex as the initial site of the deficit in spatial processing in amblyopia arising from tenotomy strabismus.

    Notizen: Summary The response to off-vertical-axis rotation (OVAR) was measured in cats under circumstances in which the signals from the horizontal semicircular canals and otoliths were opposed. Opposition was achieved by sudden acceleration or deceleration during constant velocity OVAR. The degree of opposition was expressed as a canal/otolith ratio where a ratio of unity indicated agreement. For a canal/otolith ratio of 1, the OVAR gain (eye velocity/ stimulus velocity) was 0.73 (±0.13). The steady-state OVAR response was, however, reduced if the canals and otoliths were opposed. The reduction depended on the degree of opposition with a fall-off of 0.15 gain/(unit of canal/otolith ratio). These findings are discussed with respect to the central velocity store and the mechanism underlying the generation of the OVAR response.

    Notizen: Summary The postsynaptic potentials produced in cat genioglossus and styloglossus motoneurons (GG- and SG-Mns) during swallowing were studied. During swallowing elicited by placing water on the dorsum of the tongue, the GG-muscle discharged for 80–210 ms (mean±S. D. 123±31 ms, N=59) and was abruptly suppressed, and the SG-muscle began discharging in synchrony with the GG-muscle and discharged for 200–360 ms (mean+ S. D. 247±36 ms, N=59). The GG and the SG-Mns were identified if unitary muscle activity followed the induced spike of the motoneuron one-for-one. During swallowing, excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) were evoked in the SG-Mns regardless of the respiratory drive on the SG-Mns, and inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP) or EPSP-IPSP was evoked on the GG-Mns regardless of the respiratory drive on the GG-Mns. By increasing the intracellular concentration of chloride ions, the IPSP elicited in the GG-Mn during swallowing was turned into a depolarizing potential. In immobilized cats, a depolarizing potential and a depolarizing-hyperpolarizing potential sequence was evoked successively on a tongue retractor motoneuron and a tongue protruder motoneuron by repetitive electrical stimulation of the superior laryngeal nerve.

    Notizen: Summary 1) In the alert cat, nystagmus induced by off-vertical axis rotation (OVAR) was recorded following steps in head velocity or ramps of velocity at constant acceleration below canal threshold. Dependence of nystagmus characteristics on tilt angle of rotation axis and head velocity was studied. Similar results were obtained with both types of stimulation. 2) Mean and modulation amplitude of horizontal eye velocity increased with tilt angle in the range 0–30 degrees. 3) Both variables increased also with head velocity, but with different trends, probably because they are set by different mechanisms. When head rotational velocity was increased above 80°/s, mean eye velocity progressively decreased to zero. 4) In spite of variations from one animal to another, some regularity was observed in the phase of eye velocity modulation. In several cases, a reduction in phase lead of eye velocity with respect to conventional origin of phases (nose-down position) was observed when head velocity increased. 5) Time constant of post-OVAR nystagmus decreased with the tilt angle of the rotation axis from gravity, but not with the orientation of the head with respect to rotation axis. 6) The results could be accounted for by a general equation describing the vestibulo-ocular reflex, provided that estimates of kinematic variables of head movement (head rotational and translational velocities), and visual target distance could be computed by the Central Nervous System.

    Notizen: Abstract We investigated the effects of the dopamine antagonists haloperidol and domperidone on the ventilatory response following square-wave changes in end-tidal CO2 during normoxia in chloralose-urethane anaesthetized cats. In 7 cats these responses were measured before (control, 28 runs) and after the administration of 1 mg/kg haloperidol i.v. (26 runs) and in 8 other cats before (39 runs) and after 0.5 mg/kg domperidone i.v. (34 runs). Each response was separated into a slow central and a fast peripheral part by fitting two exponential functions to the measured ventilation. These functions have as parameters a CO2 sensitivity, a time constant, a time delay and an apnoeic threshold B (extrapolated PETCO2 of the steady-state response curve at zero ventilation). Haloperidol significantly diminished the peripheral (Sp) and the central (Sc) ventilatory sensitivity to CO2 and the B-value (P〈0.001). The ratio Sp/Sc, the time constants and the time delays were not significantly changed. Domperidone only diminished the B-value significantly (P〈0.001). Since domperidone does not readily cross the blood-brain barrier, its effect was a CO2 independent increase of the ventilation mediated by the peripheral chemoreceptors. Haloperidol exhibited, besides the peripheral stimulatory effect a depressant central effect due to an action on the central integrative structure, resulting in a proportional decrease of Sp and Sc.

    Notizen: Abstract Apomorphine-induced limb flicks in cats have been ascribed to a central dopamino-mimetic action of the drug. In these experiments we investigated the role of receptors located outside the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in the induction of limb flicking. Domperidone, a dopamine-receptor blocker which does not readily pass through the BBB, antagonised the induction of limb-flicks induced by apomorphine. This suggests that limb flicking behaviour may involve interactions with receptors located before the BBB. In contrast, 6-amino-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1,2-naphtalenediol HBr (6-ATN), a dopamine-agonist which does not penetrate the BBB, did not induce limb flicks, indicating that receptor stimulation outside the BBB alone is not sufficient to induce limb flicks. We suggest that limb flicks in cats is a behaviour which can be elicited by combined activation of centrally located dopamine receptors and dopamine receptors in the area postrema.

    Notizen: Summary The distribution and origin of neurokinin A (NKA)-like immunoreactivity were investigated in feline dental pulp by an indirect immunofluorescence method. NKA-containing nerve fibres with varicosities, which entered the dental pulp via apical foramen, were distributed throughout this tissue. Many NKA-containing nerve fibres were localized around blood vessels, but some were observed apart therefrom. At the odontoblastic layer, thin NKA-containing nerve fibres were observed running straight toward the pulp-predentinal border between odontoblasts. After inferior alveolar nerve section, all NKA-containing nerve fibres disappeared in the dental pulp, while the removal of the superior cervial ganglion resulted in no change in the distribution of these fibres. The correlation of NKA-like immunoreactivity and substance P (SP)-like immunoreactivity was also investigated by double-immunofluorescence technique. The distribution of NKA-containing nerve fibres was very similar to that of SP-containing nerve fibres; it appeared that all NKA-containing nerve fibres contained SP.

    Notizen: Summary Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)-and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP)-immunoreactivity were observed to coexist in Merkel cells of cats. No differences in peptide content were found between Merkel cells located in epithelia of the hard palate, in hairy and glabrous skin of the upper lip, and in vibrissae follicles. CGRP-and VIP-immunoreactive nerve fibres were also found near CGRP/VIP-immunoreactive Merkel cells. In the vibrissae follicles some CGRP-and VIP-immunoreactive nerve terminals end abutting on the glassy membrane. Other CGRP immunoreactive nerve fibres penetrate the epithelium of the skin and end within it. Electron microscopy of vibrissae follicles revealed that Merkel cell neuntes are not immunostained and that immunostained nerve fibres form unmyelinated bundles before ending freely. Thus, CGRP-and VIP immunoreactive nerve fibres in cat skin do not end as Merkel cell neuntes but as different kinds of free nerve endings.

They were found mainly in the dorsal aspect and midline of the medulla oblongata, and more rostrally in the ventrolateral portion. Our results also demonstrated CRF-IR neurons in the rostrocaudal extent of the inferior olive, probably projecting to the cerebellar cortex via thick axons visualized along the lateral edge of the medulla. CRF-IR olivary cells were also found in the pontine cat from which the forebrain was removed, but neither in hypophysectomized nor adrenalectomized cats.

    Notizen: Summary Paraffin sections of cervical and upper thoracic paravertebral ganglia of the cat were investigated by immunohistochemistry using antisera directed against calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). The relationships of CGRP-immunoreactive structures to those exhibiting immunoreactivity to antisera against other regulatory peptides and dopamine-β-hydroxylase (DBH), respectively, were studied in consecutive sections. Singly scattered CGRP-immunoreactive neuronal perikarya were observed in the superior and middle cervical ganglia as well as in the stellate ganglion. These neurons also displayed immunoreactivity to vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), and some additionally exhibited faint substance-P immunoreactivity. DBH- and neuropeptide Y-immunoreactive ganglion cells were not identical with CGRP-immunoreactive neuronal cell bodies. According to the immunoreactive properties of varicosities, which abut on CGRP/VIP-immunoreactive perikarya, three types of CGRP/VIP-immunoreactive ganglion cells could be distinguished: (1) CGRP/VIP-immunoreactive neurons being surrounded by somatostatin-immunoreactive nerve fibers, (2) neurons being approached by both DBH- and met-enkephalin-immunoreactive varicosities, and (3) neurons receiving both DBH- and neurotensin-immunoreactive fibers. The stellate and upper thoracic ganglia harbored clusters of intensely VIP-immunoreactive somata, which lacked CGRP-immunoreactivity. Fine somatostatin-immunoreactive and coarse CGRP-immunoreactive fibers were distributed within these clusters, whereas patches of neurotensin-immunoreactive fibers were complementarily arranged. At all segmental levels investigated, a few postganglionic neurons were approached by both CGRP-immunoreactive and substance P-immunoreactive varicosities, but lacked a VIP-immunoreactive innervation. Therefore, CGRP/substance P-immunoreactive fiber baskets appeared rather to be of extraganglionic origin than to emerge from intraganglionic CGRP/VIP/SP neurons. CGRP-immunoreactive cell bodies or fibers were absent in clusters of small paraganglionic cells, but some of the solitary paraganglionic cells displayed CGRP-immunoreactivity. Our findings establish the presence of CGRP-immunoreactivity in a population of sympathetic neurons in the cat. A highly differentiated, segment-dependent organizational pattern of neuropeptides in cervico-thoracic paravertebral ganglia was demonstrated.

    Notizen: Summary The ultrastructure of cat mesenteric Pacinian corpuscles in cross and longitudinal sections has been examined. The terminal ends of lamellar cells of the inner core have been identified in longitudinal sections through the proximal portion of the inner core. These terminal bulbous expansions contain characteristic concentric membranes of rough endoplasmic reticulum and in some cases masses of oval membranous inclusions. The central axon as seen in cross section is oval in profile, having X-(short) and Y-(long) axes, and each axonal face is characterized by specializations of the axolemma. At the X-axis, the inner lamellae of the inner core tightly abut a smooth axolemma, with no intervening connective tissue matrix, in a manner reminiscent of a neuroepithelium. The axolemma of the Y-axis has numerous axonal spines (microspikes) that project into the cleft in the inner core. The extent of the axolemma having axonal spines can only be appreciated in longitudinal sections. The clefts contain a specialized connective tissue with elastic and collagen fibrils. The connective tissue compartment of fibers and matrix separating individual inner core lamellae is unique, in that it contains extremely thin collagen fibrils measuring approximately 15 nm in diameter. The diameter of collagen fibrils increases as the cleft is approached. Here the fibrils resemble typical endoneural collagen.

    Notizen: Summary The present report is the second of two studies re-evaluating the cytological characteristics of Pacinian corpuscles. The extreme tip of the axon of a Pacinian corpuscle has been identified and is quite different from the previously described ultraterminal region. The latter is the site where the inner core lamellae begin to terminate and is characterized by a smooth axolemma. The extreme tip lacks inner core lamellae directly abutting the axolemma and is instead characterized by the presence of many axonal spines projecting into a matrix of basal lamina-like material. The extreme tip of the axon thus resembles the organization of the axolemma facing the clefts of the inner core. The axonal spines at the cleft and extreme tip are proposed as a site of restricted current flow due to the tight apposition of inner core lamellae to the axolemma of X-axis. The hemiinner cores thus could restrict current flow to the cleft. These anatomical specializations could represent both a source and a sink for K+ ions during mechano-electric transduction and account in part for the exquisite sensitivity of Pacinian corpuscles to complex pressure waves.

    Notizen: Summary The influence of varying middle ear pressure on the otolith system was investigated in anesthetized cats. Extra-axonal recordings of action potentials were performed in the vestibular nerve fibers and in the neurons in the lateral vestibular nucleus that responded to lateral or anteroposterior steadystate tilt. Positive or negative pressure was applied to the ipsilateral middle ear during the recordings. Seventy-three percent of the fibers and 63% of the neurons responded to changes in the middle ear pressure. These response rates were higher than those previously reported on the units innervating semicircular canals. Findings suggest that the otolith organs are more sensitive to changes in the middle ear pressure than are the semicircular canals. The units responding to lateral tilt were more sensitive to middle ear pressure than those that responded to anteroposterior tilt. Displacement of endolymph caused by pressure changes in the middle ear was considered to have affected the activities of hair cells in otolith organs.

    Notizen: Abstract Originally, modeling of ganglion-cell responses in cat was based mainly on linear analysis. This is satisfactory for those cells in which spatial summation of excitation is approximately linear (X-cells) but it fails for Y-cells, where summation has strong nonlinear components. Others have shown the utility of using sinusoidal analysis to study harmonic and intermodulation nonlinearities in the temporal frequency domain. We have used Wiener-kernel analysis to obtain directly both temporal and spatial impulse responses and their nonlinear interactions. From these, we were able to predict accurately the responses that a counterphase modulated grating elicited in both X-cells and Y-cells. In addition, we show that the first-order responses can measure the two-dimensional spatial features of the receptive field with high resolution. Thus, nonlinear analysis of responses to white-noise stimuli may be sufficient to both classify and measure the receptive fields of many different types of ganglion cells.

    Notizen: A pilot wet scrubber was examined experimentally. It is constructed like a plate column. Its plates are designed to set the gas into a whirling motion with tangential velocities of up to 25 m/s and to ensure a uniform distribution of the liquid throughout the gas flow. Particles suspended in the waste gas are collected by gas-atomized droplets to yield cut diameters between one and two microns. Energy consumption is lower than in the case of other scrubbers. The scrubbing mechanisms are analyzed by examining the measured pressure drops. Finally, methods of determining the collection efficiency are discussed and an empirical approach to its calculation is presented.

    Notizen: The suitability of any item of equipment for a given thermal separation process cannot always be judged solely in the light of efficient and loading range data. In vacuum rectification, involving a large number of theoretical stages, the vapour pressure drop per transfer unit exerts a considerable effect on the energy consumption and thus largely governs the choice of column fittings. Furthermore, the pressure drop per transfer unit determines the temperature at the bottom of a rectification column and, hence, the suitability of the equipment for the separation of heat-sensitive products. It is also an important criterion for compressor requirements in absorption processes. Another factor of considerable importance in separating heat-sensitive mixtures by distillation is the time during which the product, particularly the liquid phase, is exposed to a given temperature in the column. Therefore, a standardized liquid residence time has been adopted to evaluate the systems in their entirely. This residence time depends on the hydrodynamic conditions in the column and is thus closely related to pressure drop and efficiency. Further important factors, which may decide the selection of column internals, are the specific volume and mass of the column. Based on theoretical considerations, a flow model is derived for describing the main loading range of countercurrent packed columns; the relationships between the above mentioned parameters are presented.

    Notizen: A report is presented on the influence of liquid flow rate, NaOH concentration, column length and presence of 5 × 10-3 wt-% of the surfactant SLS on the rate of absorption of pure SO2 by aqueous NaOH solution in a sphere-and-cylinder column. The presence of sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) prevented axial turbulence which increased mass transfer in longer columns and was almost independent of the flow rate. The enhancement factor due to the reaction between SO2 and NaOH with respect to the process of physical absorption was analyzed for the systems with excess OH- in the outflow. The results obtained in the presence of a surfactant are satisfactorily explained by film theory with a single reaction plane model. Those obtained in the absence of surfactant are best described by a two-plane model using renewal theory.

    Notizen: Experimental investigation of stirring processes require the measurement of temperature changes and concentration profiles in all the zones of the mixing volume. The conversion of simultaneous chemical reactions during the mixing process depends on the local temperature and concentration. The time-dependent temperature and concentration fields can be recorded for the entire mixing volume with the use of optical tomography and correlated with time. This technique offers the possibility of continuous measurement of temperature and concentration changes during the mixing process throughout the measurement volume. In the described investigations, optical tomography is used to examine the transport and equalization processes during mixing in stirred vessels.

    Notizen: Theoretical modelling of heat transfer to particle beds comprises two sequential steps: transfer from the heating surface to contacting particles followed by transfer to the interior of the bed. Two different limiting case can be formulated for the second step: unmixed and homogeneously mixed bed. In the case, heat is transferred gradually via a repeated sequence of heat transfer in the gap between adjacent particles and conduction in the particulate material. In the second case, heat is transferred to the interior of the bed by mixing of particles which have previously attained the temperature of the heating surface. On the other hand, the mixing motion maintains a homogeneous lower temperature throughout the bed. Theory predicts a significant and easily measurable difference in the behaviour of heat transfer coefficients for the two regimes at long contact times t: unmixed beds ∝ \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ \sqrt t $$\end{document} and homogeneously mixed beds ∝ 1/t. For short times t, both regimes show the same behaviour, namely of t.From a theoretical standpoint, it makes sense to differentiate further between the behaviour patterns of unmixed beds: at long times t, instantaneous heat transfer coefficients are independent of heat transfer form the heating surface to adjacent particles. Comparison with experimental result from literature shows that the derived models, which are consistent, are suitable for describing the heat transfer from submerged surfaces to unmixed and mixed beds of particles.

    Notizen: The aim of the present paper is the discussion of the relevance of power dissipation as a criterion for the understanding and prediction of transfer and mixing efficiencies in contactors and chemical reactors. After reviewing the approach of Le Goff to the energetic efficiency of exchangers, based on the deviations from Chilton-Colburn analogy, the following processes are studied: mass transfer between a flowing fluid and a reactive solid surface, transfer to a fixed object in a stirred vessel, macro- and micromixing of miscible fluids, and mass transfer in fluid-fluid contractors (especially gas-liquid reactors). It is concluded from the various examples that a direct relationship between the dissipated power and intensity of transfer or mixing can be established only under the two following conditions: local values must be considered at the point where the actual transfer and mixing occur, and not average values over the whole device, and power dissipation must be coupled to transfer or mixing and appear physically as the driving force of the process.

    Notizen: Increasing demand for regenerable processes with SO2 recovery is to be expected. Advantages and limitations of the earlier developed citrate and adipate absorption/ steam stripping process are compared with those of the Wellman-Lord (sulphite) process. On the basis of comprehensive laboratory studies, a new process is proposed which supplements the citrate and adipate process. In this new process, the absorbent is a concentrated sodium phosphate buffer and the loaded buffer is regenerated by evaporation. The main buffer component is Na2HPO4, but NaH2PO4 is added in order to obtain a more complete stripping of SO2 during regeneration. The new process promises excellent absorption properties for SO2 with extremely low oxidation losses, regeneration with few incrustation problems and appreciable energy savings.

    Notizen: Design and operation of a circulating fluidized bed requires the knowledge of fluid mechanics. According to heat and mass transfer as well as chemical reactions, the effect of the set superficial gas velocity on the axial pressure profile is of particular interest. The axial pressure profile was measured for a variety of solids, as a function of the superficial gas velocity, in a cylindrical circulating fluidized bed with an inner diameter of 0.19 m and an overall height of 11.5 m. Depending on the solids content and superficial gas velocity, two or one sections can be observed in the plant where the pressure gradient is constant. A pressure profile with one pressure gradient exists only at high gas velocities, so long as the acceleration pressure drop immediately above the gas distributor is negligible. Comparison of measured pressure drops in circulating fluidized beds with those measured in vertical pneumatic conveying led to a state diagram for vertical gas-solid flows. The operation behaviour of different types of circulating fluidized bed plants can be explained with the aid of this diagram.

    Notizen: Crossflow microfiltration (CMF) is a pressure driven membrane process for the separation of suspended microparticles, bacteria and emulsion droplets. The fluid to be filtered flows in parallel to the membrane surface and restricts the formation of a filter cake. This contribution explains the basic process characteristics and the combination of the crossflow technique with other membrane cleaning methods (periodic backflushing, chemical cleaning). Special attention is paid to the influence of different process parameters on the flux through the membrane. The principle of plant design and different operation modes are described. Engineering aspects such as hydrodynamics, energy requirement and selection of construction materials are discussed in some detail.

    Notizen: While two- and multiphase flows find more and more application in chemical engineering practice, and the demand for theoretical information about mass and heat transfer processes in such systems is increasing, such data or at least experimental results which could be generalized are still lacking. The following pages are concerned with mass transfer in laminar suspension tube flows normal to the main direction of flow due to the individual motions of small, inert spherical particles. On the basis of a large number of experimental data, an interpretation is attempted of the role of nearly neutrally-buoyant particles in mass transfer enhancement, and a model for a semi-empirical description is suggested. The experimental arrangement uses the mass transfer of carbon dioxide in laminar flow of salt water during the process of gas permeation through a permeable membrane tube wall.

    Notizen: Interfacial areas and gas hold-ups were determined at pressures of up to 1.7 MPa in a glass vessel, 88 mm in diameter and of standard geometry. Superficial gas velocities between 0.25 and 2.0 cm/s were used and the stirring speed varied between 4 and 30 rps. The interfacial areas were determined by the chemical method, using the model reaction between CO2 and aqueous diethanolamine (DEA). Hold-ups were determined by observation of differences in height. In contrast to literature indications, the gas hold-up was found to be independent of reactor pressure. This is also true for the interfacial area.

    Notizen: Pyrolysis of propane/argon mixture in the presence of trace quantities (0.1% and 0.9%) of ethane was investigated at reflected shock wave temperatures between 1200 and 2000K. Traces of ethane accelerated propane decomposition at high temperature. However, increase in the quantity of ethane added to propane/argon mixture did not result in the same increase of its accelerating influence. Ethylene, methane and acetylene were the main hydrocarbon reaction products, with small quantities of propylene and ethane detected only at lower temperatures. Below 1500K, addition of ethane slightly enhanced the yields of ethylene and methane at the expense of propylene and ethane respectively. The selectivity for acetylene increased with increasing temperature and with the decline of those for the other products. For none of the products, did the presence of ethane alter the relationship between product formation rates and temperature. The influence of ethane addition on propane pyrolysis at high temperatures was explained in terms of increased radical concentrations, especially hydrogen atoms and vinyl radicals, formed at high conversions. These accounted for the rapid acceleration of propane decomposition and the high yield of acetylene at high temperatures.

    Notizen: This contribution presents the methods of measuring the mass transfer in centrifugal extractors and of determining it during the individual life stages of a fluid element of the dispersed liquid, i.e. drop formation, motion, coalescence and stay in the stationary layer of the dispersed phase. The experimental mass transfer coefficients of the dispersed and continuous phases are compared with well-known theoretical models developed for extraction columns in gravitational field. Due to the fast motion and coalescence of the fluid particles at high centrifugal field intensities, mass transfer in centrifugal extractors takes place during short contact times. Nevertheless, this contribution shows that mass transfer in a centrifugal field can be calculated with selected theoretical models of the gravitational field. The investigations on mass transfer are completed by a classification of the strongly deformed fluid particles in centrifugal field into regimes of circulating and oscillating drops. In addition, data on the performance of centrifugal extractors, undergoing several exchange steps, are given.

    Notizen: The kinetics of heterogeneously catalyzed methacrylic acid synthesis from isobutyric acid has been investigated. Initial catalyst screening pointed to 10-molybdo-2-vanado-phosphoric acid and its Cs-salts as the most promising catalysts. A model describing the reaction behaviour of all the different hetropoly-compounds used in this work was developed. A relationship was found between model parameters and composition of different catalysts. First insight was gained into the catalyst deactivation phenomena. Deactivation appears to be caused mainly by loss of molybdenum with simultaneous collapse of the Keggin structure.

    Notizen: Transient diffusion of inert gases into Zeolon 900 H, a zeolite of the mordenite type, was studied by the chromatographic method. Experiments were performed with argon and helium either as tracer or as carrier gas. The diffusion of argon was also studied in a carrier gas containing methanol at a low temperature (75°C, no reaction) and at higher temperatures (up to 130°C) when some dehydration of methanol to dimethyl ether takes place. The adsorption isotherm of argon is linear. In the absence of methanol, its penetration into microcrystals of zeolite is equally well represented either by an effective diffusion coefficient D′μ = 7.4 × 10-8exp(-2873/T)m2s-1 or by a mass transfer coefficient at the crystallite surface keμ = 1.9 × 10-4 exp(-1324/T) ms-1. A small amount of methanol in the carrier gas considerably slows down the transfer of argon (by a factor of 40 for D′μ and 550 for keμ) showing the “blocking” effect of adsorbed methanol. In addition, transient adsorption can no longer be accounted for by a single transfer time. The size distribution of microcrystals, determined from Scanning Electron Microscope photographs leads to a Transfer Time Distribution which account well for experimental breakthrough curves without any parameter fitting. This interpretation is supported by experiments under reaction conditions where transport of argon within crystallites increases faster with temperature than in the absence of reaction due to the transformation of methanol into dimethyl ether, which is less adsorbed and thus provides lesser hindrance to argon diffusion.

    Notizen: Fischer-Tropsch catalysts (Fe/V oxides with ZnO and K2CO3 as promoters) were exposed to CHCl3, thereby producing surface and bulk chlorides. The effect of this exposure on activity and selectivity was studied in a continuous recycle reactor at a total pressure of 10 bar (CO/H2 in most experiments: ca 1:1) in a temperature range between 200 and 343°C. CHCl3 was introduced in amounts of up to 1 × 10-2 mol chlorine per g catalyst. The catalyst samples were characterized by internal surface area, pore-size distribution and adsorption capacities for CO, H2 and C2H4. Prior to synthesis, the catalysts were reduced by H2. Catalyst exposure to CHCl3 resulted in a decrease of activity and considerable changes in product distribution. Hydrogenation and isomerization of 1-olefins were partly suppressed; the chain length of the products was slightly increased. Deactivation of the catalysts due to chlorine addition was partly reversible during operation, while olefin formation was not significantly altered with time-on-stream. The effect of chlorine on activity and selectivity is explained by dissociation of CO as the chain initiating step and CO insertion into a carbon/metal bond as a possible chain propagation step. Since adsorption capacity for H2 decreases on the addition of chlorine, this may also contribute to lower activity and change in selectivity, compared to the unexposed catalyst.

    Notizen: The performance characteristic of a packed bed reactor has been analyzed by considering diffusional resistance of the biofilm. Model equations were solved by the method of orthogonal collocation for various classical enzyme inhibition kinetics, including partially non-competitive, partially competitive, partially uncompetitive, partially mixed and fully mixed. For all considered modes of inhibition, an increase in the inlet substrate concentration decreases the steady state conversion in the reactor. However, an increase in the Peclet number has been found to improve the conversion. The effects of various other process variables of physical importance were also investigated parametrically.

    Notizen: Asymptotes are known to be useful, but their potential in interpreting and correlating chemical and physical behaviour is seldom exploited fully. The derivation and selection of asymptotes for particular as well as limiting cases is described. The evaluation of the range of validity and applicability, if any, of asymptotes is also considered. Asymptotes are shown to be uniquely useful in the identification of groupings of variables which minimize parameteric variations, as upper and lower bounds, as trial functions in the method of weighted residuals, and most especially as components of correlating equations.

    Notizen: A single variable pole-placement self-tuning controller (PPSTC) is used to simulate examples typical of chemical processes; i.e., open-loop stable, unstable, and unstable non-minimum phase systems with unknown varying process dead time. The PPSTC is shown to be effective in each case. Set-point tracking and rejection of randomly occurring deterministic disturbances for all three types of processes are achieved. Simultaneous estimation of process parameters and process time delay is realized by using a recursive extended least squares method.

    Notizen: An important parameter influencing the crystal size distribution in mass crystallization from solution is the mechanical stress exerted on crystals in the crystallizer. This contribution presents the study of the influence of mechanical stress and attrition of the system potassium nitrate-water in an FC-crystallizer and in various draft-tube crystallizers, fitted with different types of impellers. The intensity of stress is a newly defined variable which is used to describe the level of stress in crystallizers. The reduction of crystal size by attrition is described by the linear attrition rate. The influence of impeller design and crystal hold-up on crystal size distribution and scale-up rules is discussed.

    Notizen: The mean crystal size of coarse crystalline products is determined by secondary nucleation and crystal growth. Secondary unclei are mainly produced by contacts of crystals with parts of the crystallizer or with other crystals. As a consequence, attrition effects are very important. In this paper, a model is proposed in order to calculate the attrition rate of crystals, depending on the physical properties of the crystalline product, the geometry of the crystallizer and on the operating conditions such as the stirrer speed or the suspension density. The effective rate of secondary nucleation can be expressed in terms of the attrition rate by introducing effective values for number and size of attrition particles. Finally, a scale-up criterion based on this model is derived. This criterion allows to predict effective rates of secondary nucleation and mean crystal sizes if data obtained in a laboratory crystallizer are available.

    Notizen: Settling characteristics of four different suspensions were measured by batch settling tests (glass spheres in glycerol-water mixtures and CaCO3) and by continuous settling test in a bench-scale vertical flow tank (activated sludge and kaolin in water), including the measurement of solids concentrations inside the tank. The characteristics could be described by different correlation functions which now include all the information about the settling behaviour of ideal suspensions. Continuous settling experiments in a bench-scale vertical flow tank were carried out with the same four material systems. These results correspond with sufficient accuracy to those from the theory of limiting flux if the settling characteristics determined earlier are considered.

    Notizen: Thermal deactivation can be described either by deactivation kinetics or by the isokinetic effect. The latter expression is used synonymously with the “compensation effect” and the “Theta-Rule”. An examination of the original literature shows that only the compensation effect is applicable to thermal deactivation but not the Theta-Rule. The introduction of the preparation temperature as a parameter of the compensation effect results in a “modified Theta-Rule”, which describes the experimental data and is proposed for the non-separable kinetics. The consequence of the observed deviations from the validity range of the Theta-Rule is that the activation energy cannot be used as a universal activity criterion.

    Notizen: A number of topped crude oil residues were subjected to mild thermal cracking in the temperature range between 613 and 673K at N2 pressure of one atmosphere. It was found that the thermal stability of the six topped crude oils decreased in the order Brent 〈 Piper 〈 Auk 〈 Saudi Arabian 〈 Romashkinskaya 〈 Tia Juana Pesado. This was measured in terms of light end production (C1-C5 hydrocarbons). The asphaltene, sulphur and metal (nickel and vanadium) contents were also determined. The production of light ends, exemplified by methane, was found to be related to the metal asphaltene content of the crude oils, but the sulphur content exerted a moderating influence upon the extent of cracking. Hence, metal asphaltenes, probably as metal porphyrins, catalyse cracking but the presence of sulphur reduces that catalytic activity and can inhibit cracking. If cracking of long chain hydrocarbons is to be minimized, metal asphaltenes should be removed (preferably) or reduced in concentration or poisoned, in order to decrease their catalytic activity.

    Notizen: The kinetics of non-catalytic as well as catalytic oxidation of Isobutyraldehyde has been investigated. Reaction rate equations for the formation of the main product isobutyric acid and of the side products acetone, CO and CO2 were derived. Kinetic parameters, namely the order of reaction, preexponential factor and activation energy were estimated by non-linear regression. The influence of selectivity and activity of the different type of catalysts employed was investigated quantitatively.

    Notizen: The interpretation of the term “compensation” obscures a logical contradiction, the catalytic paradox, which is caused by inconsistent validity ranges of the Arrhenius parameters, the pre-exponential factor and the activation energy. For this reason, a theory which contains the Arrhenius parameters cannot be established for the entire system (whole temperature range) on the basis of classical logic. Only the subsystems can be consistent and complete. One subsystem is the range of the topocatalytic concept which is relevant for thermal deactivation, thermal bistability and for all reactions with surface dependence of activity. The other is the range of the energetic concept which is preferred in fundamental research. In order to complete the subsystems, new consistent symbols are introduced. The change of particle size caused by thermal deactivation can result in four possible particle size effects, two of which have been discussed in the literature.

    Notizen: Thermal radiation of gas/solid mixtures in high-temperature heat exchangers is of considerable importance for the design of heat exchange surfaces. Therefore, an experimental plant was constructed to measure solid particle emissivities, since there is a lack of relevant data in the existing literature. A theoretical equation was derived to describe the solid particle emissivity as a function of layer thickness, specific solid surface area, solid loading and absorption and scatter coefficients. Measurements were carried out for fluidized bed ash and quartz sand. The emissivities of these particle fractions increase with increasing layer thickness, slid loading, specific solid surface area and temperature. The description of these data by the derived model equation is very satisfactory. No dependence on wavelength was observed. The ash components do exert some influence which, for the present, cannot be described exactly.

    Notizen: A report is presented on the performance of modern dumped and structured packings for application in the field of thermal separation processes. The evaluation of the results is based on extensive experimental investigations of rectification, absorption, and desorption systems. The following are indicated: the efficiency in terms of the number of theoretical stages per unit height or in terms of the height of transfer unit or volumetric mass transfer coefficient, the pressure drop per unit height as well as per theoretical stage or per gas phase transfer unit, and the liquid hold-up, whereby either the gas capacity factor or the liquid load was adopted as influencing parameter, and finally the maximum gas capacity factor as a function of the flow parameter. The results are presented in diagrams and tables.

    Notizen: It is shown that the volumetric mass transfer coefficients, presented recently by Schmitz et al. [1] for viscous solutions of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) in aqueous sodium sulphite, are considerably underestimated as a result of unjustified neglect of the oxygen back pressure during oxygen absorption. Schmitz et. al. [1] found a decrease in the exponent n in the relationship between the oxygen mass transfer coefficient, kla, and the power dissipated per unit volume of the liquid phase, e (kla ∝ en), and ascribed it to viscosity effects. However, no such decrease is observed, provided that the actual oxygen back pressure is taken into account.

    Notizen: NOx emissions from different commercial gas burners for metal heat treatment applications were measured for a research project of the Gaswärme-Institut. The burners, rated at up to 50 kW, were installed for the tests in a laboratory combustion chamber operated at temperatures of up to 1400°C. The air for combustion was preheated to maximum temperature of 600°C. Following the tests, the potentials of different NOx control techniques were investigated. Methods explored included staged combustion air injection, staged fuel injection and fuel gas injection into the flue for NOx reduction. The results showed that it is feasible to reduce the NOx content of flue gases by as much as 90%.

    Notizen: In the description of mixing processes influenced by viscosity in pseudoplastic (power-law) fluids, a definition of representative viscosity is normally used which takes into account the variable flow behaviour of the stirred material as a result of different shear stresses. In this context, the Metzner and Otto concept, which postulates that a representative shear rate is proportional to stirring speed, has become widely know, although the power calculation is inaccurate, particularly in the transient regime between the laminar and turbulent flow. A new model of fluid dynamics in the mixing vessel is presented, based on the increase of the mean flow velocity standardized with the stirrer's tip velocity in the transition regime. It provides a physical explanation for the above deviations. A suitable definition of representative viscosity substantially improves the accuracy of calculations of the stirring power in power-law fluids.

    Notizen: The increasing demand for products from mammalian cells has prompted the authors to develop a new type of bioreactor. Its significant features include the supply of oxygen, homogeneous distribution of microcarrier suspensions and process control. Media with high protein contents, required for mammalian cell cultures tend to generate foam. This causes the flotation of solid particles. The reactor was equipped with a system of porous hydrophobic Accurel hollow fibre membranes in order to prevent the formation of bubbles. The membrane is coiled in the form of a basket, or fixed on several carriers. If the liquid pressure is higher than that of the gas phase inside the membrane, a bubble - free oxygen supply to the culture broth can be achieved. The problem of axial mixing of microcarier suspensions was solved by the use of a spiral agitator, attached underneath the aeration system at the bottom of the reactor. The combined aeration and mixing system, which is driven by an eccentric motor, undergoes a tumbling motion. Sufficiently homogeneous suspensions are produced in this system at low membrane velocities, i.e. in presence of low shear forces.

    Notizen: Aqueous ethylenediamine-ethanol-anthraquinone (EDA-EtOH-AQ) pulping of Southern Yellow Pine was studied for lignin removal and pulp yield. Temperature, time and ethylenediamine concentration in the solvent solution were studied and equations for lignin content and lignin-free yield were developed. Lignin content is decreased by an increase of temperature, time or EDA concentration. Lignin-free yield of pulp decreased with an increase in temperature or time, but increased with increasing EDA concentration. Overall, the solvent is selective, that is, large quantities of lignin are removed while the retention of cellulose remains high.

    Notizen: This investigation was undertaken in order to examine the factors affecting mechanical damage to micro-organisms in stirred bioreactors. Growth of the mould Rhizopus nigricans was studied in stirred bioreactors at different geometrical and operating parameters. Since experimental results cannot be described by conventional key parameters, a new concept has been suggested. It is based on the analogy to processes of mechanical disintegration. It is shown that the same key parameter, i.e. the ratio of power input to flow rate, can be used for a satisfactory correlation of experimental data on mechanical damage to micro-organisms, which is an important step in the recovery of intracellular products in biotechnology.

    Notizen: It is shown how a consistent scale-up rule for the power consumption in agitated non-Newtonian liquids can be obtained. The new approach is based on the concept of including the real liquid in a set of liquids with similar rheological properties and of using, in a small scale laboratory system, a suitable member of that set instead of the original liquid. Considerations of similarity lead to simple unique selection rules for the actual test liquid and for the stirrer speed in the laboratory experiment as well as to a prediction of the power requirement in the real system. The theory is tested experimentally by means of different aqueous polyacrylamide solutions. The results are compared with predictions, according to Metzner and Otto as well as Rieger and Novák.

    Notizen: Many experimental studies on the bubble column have been reported by Japanese researchers since around 1960. They include studies of bubble behaviour, bubble size distribution, transition from the homogeneous bubbly flow regime to the heterogeneous liquid circulation regime, liquid velocity distribution, longitudinal liquid mixing, hydrodynamic modelling, the gas holdup, and the volumetric coefficient of gas-liquid mass tranfer kLa. Studies covered various modified bubble columns, such as the airlift reactor with an external or internal loop, the packed bubble column, and others. Performance of three-phase bubble columns, which deal with suspensions or emulsions, and their use as bioreactors or chemical reactors were also studied.

    Notizen: A control concept which includes an adaptive multivariable control algorithm and an observer model has been put into practice in the operation of a distillation column which separates water from a solvent. The model yields predictions of solvent concentration in the waste water which forms the top product. Early detection of disturbances permits an adjustment of the process in time. This has resulted in an exceptionally smooth operation of the column, with a drastic reduction in solvent concentration fluctuations, observed with conventional control technology. Since the only measurements required are pressure, temperature and the rate of flow, this control system is largely free from disturbances. In addition to considerably reducing the burden on operating personnel, use of this control system has lowered the costs of waste water treatment, solvent losses, analysis expenditure and energy consumption.

    Notizen: The alternative effects of reaction kinetics, mass, heat and momentum transport on mass conversion by chemical reactions are examined theoretically for a reacot tube with laminar flow. The reaction enthalpy is considered. A heterogeneous reaction between several gaseous components takes place at the inner surface of this reactor tube. Strongly exothermic reactions lead to self-acceleration of the reaction, unless reaction enthalpy is removed through the tube wall. Under certain conditions, there will be a sudden change from mass transfer controlled by the reaction to that controlled by diffusion. This phenomenon is known as ignition of the reaction. The effect of ignition and its sensitivity to reaction enthalpy, thermal conductivity and diffusivity of the fluid as well as activation energy of the first order heterogeneous wall reaction are investigated by a numerical solution of the transport equations. Axial conduction of heat and mass is neglected both in the fluid and in the tube wall. Non-stoichiometric wall reactions of first order, with temperature dependent reaction rates and equilibrium constants, are considered. The results are presented in graphical form, as plots of the local mass flux at the reacting wall as functions of the dimensionless tube length.

    Notizen: Precipitation is a rapid solidification. As a rule, it applies to substances which are sparingly soluble and is coupled with a chemical reaction or with a salting out process. The chemical engineer has to ensure that the product obtained has a constant and preferably coarse size distribution. This contribution compares the literature data on crystallization of soluble and sparingly soluble substances; it can be shown that, during precipitation processes, nuclei are formed, most probably by a primary mechanism. Analysis of the processes occurring during precipitation, such as chemical reaction, mixing and crystallization, leads to recommendations for the operation of precipitation processes.

    Notizen: The deterioration of mass transfer efficiency of an extraction column with increasing column diameter is the result of developing residence time distributions. These effects can be described by one-dimensional dispersion model. However, it must be verified whether the requirements for its application are fulfilled in the different types of agitated extraction columns. For the columns for which the dispersion model can be applied, a relationship will be derived between the necessary increase of column height with column diameter. This is based on the equations for calculation of the dispersion coefficient of the continuous phase. If the dispersion model cannot be applied to given a type of column, an investigation will be made on the possible modifications of operation or changes in construction, in order to permit a scale-up procedures as proposed here.

    Notizen: A mathematical model of the dynamic behaviour of non-isothermal fixed-bed adsorbers has been developed which takes into account the various mass and heat transfer resistances. Comparison of experimental and simulated results confirms that the model can predict the adsorption and desorption breakthrough curves of an adiabatically operated column, using only equilibrium data and tortuosity factors obtained from single pellet experiments. A simplified model with a reduced number of parameters was derived by investigation of the dimensionless transfer parameters under industrial conditions. It becomes evident that the main transfer mechanisms are convective heat and mass transfer in the bulk flow and diffusion within the pores of the particle. Dimensionless effluent concentration is expresses in terms of dimensionless time, a transport parameter, a non-isothermal parameter, the adsorption equilibrium and the inlet and initial concentrations and temperatures in the simplified model. For a chosen system of adsorbate and adsorbent, design charts can be developed by computer simulation, to determine graphically the breakthrough time as a function of significant process parameters, i.e. the dimensionless transfer parameter and the feed concentration.

    Notizen: A bench scale flue gas desulphurization spray dry scrubbing unit was employed to study the effect of fly ash on the removal of SO2. The equipment consisted of a spray dryer with and ultrasonic nozzle for atomization and a pulse jet baghouse. The flue gas rate was 1500 lN/h (dry gas). Four fly ashes, originating from different countries were investigated. The alkalinity and reactivity of the fly ashes were determined in a pH-stat equipment. Pure fly ash removed SO2 in both the spray dryer and in the baghouse. An increase of humidity divided the fly ashes into two groups. The high calcium fly ash gave a considerably higher SO2 removal than the medium and low calcium fly ashes which showed similar SO2 removals. Fly ash did not enhance the removal of SO2 when added to a lime slurry because lime suppresses the dissolution of the alkali in the fly ashes. The pressure drop build-up in the fabric filter showed a strong dependence on material properties.

    Notizen: Detailed knowledge of the physical phenomena involved in subcooled boiling is of great importance for the design of liquid-cooled heat generating systems with high heat fluxes. Experimental heat transfer data were obtained for forced convective boiling of dichloro-difluoroethane (R 12). The flow is circulated upwards through a concentric annular vertical channel. The inner and outer diameters of the annulus are 0.016 m and 0.03 m respectively. The reduced pressures studied were 0.24 ≤ p/pcrit ≤ 0.8, inlet subcooling varied from 10 to 75 K and mass fluxes from 500 to 3000 kg/m2s, which corresponds to Re numbers from 30000 to 300000. The experiments, described in this study, demonstrate that liquid fluorocarbons show certain unusual boiling characteristics in the subcooled flow, such as hysteresis of the boiling curve. These characteristics are attributed to the properties of the fluid, mainly the Pr number and the very low surface tension. The pronounced boiling curve hysteresis can be explained by the fact that large nucleation sites may have been flooded prior to incipient boiling. A dimensionless regression formula is presented which predicts the onset of subcooled boiling as a function of reduced pressure (p/pcrit), Boiling-(Bo), Reynolds-(Re), and a modified Jacob number (Ja), over the whole range of parameters studied, with a good accuracy, including water data from literature.

    Notizen: A special type of jet loop reactor (JLR), designed for continuous operation and short residence times was investigated with regard to its mass transfer behaviour, described by the volumetric mass transfer coefficient kLa. The jet stream and superficial gas velocities are varied in two JLRs of different sizes, equipped with different nozzles. Fully desalinated water, 0.08 molar NaCI solution and solutions of different concentration of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) are used as the liquid phase. A steady-state physical method is employed to determine kLa: air oxygen is purged from the liquid phase by gaseous nitrogen. The measurements show that the reactor is characterized by high power density and high mass transfer performance. No limit of mass transfer capacity was observed in the chosen ranges of volumetric gas and liquid flow rates, i.e. at a given jet stream velocity, the relationship between kLa and the superficial gas velocity is nearly linear. The investigations show that the mass transfer contributed by the jet stream largely depends on liquid phase composition.

    Notizen: In order to investigate the suspension behaviour of solid particles in bubble columns without and with draft tube, minimum gas velocities for generating and maintaining complete solid suspension were determined. Experiments were carried out in a bubble column with a diameter of 200 mm and a height of 2 500 mm. The bubble column could be equipped with a draft tube with a diameter of 120 mm and a length of 1 500 mm. The state of suspension was determined by measuring the hydrostatic pressure as a result of suspended solid particles with an inductive pressure gauge. Solid content εs, solid density ϱs, particle size dp, particle shape, particle size distribution, and solid wettability were varied. Furthermore measurements of integral gas holdup were carried out.

    Notizen: A model is presented which consists of steady-state and transient codes for the description of reacting multiphase flow fields, including hydrodynamic fragmentation of liquid drops in relative flows. An application of this model for the description of large scale melt-coolant interactions (thermal detonations) is described. A simulation of two-phase chemical detonations, especially those with hydrodynamic disintegration of liquid fuel drops in the reaction zone, is possible, in principle, within the framework of the modeling.

    Notizen: Adsorptive separation of oxygen from nitrogen and argon is carried out during the desorption steps of a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) process which uses carbon molecular sieves developed by Bergbau-Forschung GmbH. The adsorption isotherms of the three main components of air are very similar. On account of the pore size distribution of CMSN2, the diffusion coefficient of oxygen is more than eight times those of nitrogen and argon so that air separation occurs by adsorption kinetics. Experimental results for the individual steps and cyclic operation of the PSA process are presented and compared with the predictions of an isothermal plug-flow model. Adsorption rate is represented by a linear driving force equation. If the diffusion coefficients are adapted separately to every step, a good agreement is observed between the model calculations and experimental results.

    Notizen: The adsorption solvent recovery process, known as Recursorb which involves desorption and cooling steps by a circulated inert gas, is analyzed in detail on the basis of equilibrium theory. Employing the method of characteristics, the model is solved for each step of the overall process. The estimations confirm that the process performance with respect to final gas purity, activated carbon useful capacity and operation times depends on condenser and heater temperatures. Simple expressions are derived for the calculation of adsorption, desorption and cooling times.

    Notizen: The new model discrimination method is based on the correlation coefficient test of experimental data sets for different reactions, without requiring a prior parameter estimation. The new parameter estimation method reduces by n the number of dimensions to be tested, compared to the classical method where n is the number of independent reactions in the system. This has reduced the computation time for most complex reactions to a level, comparable to that needed for single reactions. The example used is the kinetic study of methanol synthesis in which the formation rates of methanol, methane, ethanol and ethane are considered. Two adequately accurate models were obtained from an extensive range of plausible models by using the new model discrimination and parameter estimation method with a relatively small computation effort.

    Notizen: Bench-Scale experiments were carried out with the ternary mixture 2-propanol/water/glycerol. In a cylindrical vessel, the stirred and thermostated liquid was exposed to a preheated and either dry or humidified air stream. The mixture was evaporated either from a free surface or from the surface of a porous plate. On evaporating the mixture from a porous plate into a dry air stream, the less volatile component water escapes preferentially; in the case of evaporation from a free surface, water is retained in the mixture. In the former case, selectivity is liquid diffusion controlled, in the latter, the gas-side mass transfer and the thermodynamic equilibrium are the controlling mechanisms. On reducing the gas flow rate, the more volatile alcohol evaporates preferentially in both cases; the selectivity is controlled only by thermodynamic equilibrium. Humidification of the air stream with water vapour causes preferential evaporation of the alcohol at an increased rate. Furthermore, instabilities in the liquid boundary layer due to density gradients and surface tension effects may affect the selectivity of evaporation. Experimental results show that the selectivity of evaporation can be manipulated by choosing appropriate evaporation conditions. The theory, which applies the generalized Stefan-Maxwell equations to diffusion in the liquid, can describe these effects.

    Notizen: To our benefit, the modelling of fluid-solid catalyzed reaction-reactor systems has long been the keen concern of Hanns Paul Hofmann. In the light of his instruction we remark upon key aspects of modelling for the (a) fixed bed (b) fluid bed and (c) moving bed/transport line reactors. There emerges from such analyses a properly renewed awareness of the need for a more sophisticated respect for reliable physical-chemical data. As Hanns has taught us, our models are no btter than our data.

    Notizen: Two-phase flow in porous media depends on many factors, such as displacement vs steady two-phase flow, saturation, wettability conditions, wetting fluid vs non-wetting fluid is displacing, the capillary number, interfacial tension, viscosity ratio, pressure gradient, uniformly wetted vs mixed-wet pore surface, uniform vs distributed pore throats, small vs large pores, well-connected pores vs pores connected by small throats, etc. These parameters determine how the two fluids are distributed in the pores, e.g. whether they flow in seperate channels or side-by-side in the same channels, either with both fluids being continous or only one fluid being continous and the other discontinuous. In displacement, the capillary number and the viscosity ratio determine whether the displacement front is sharp, or if there is either capillary or viscous fingering.

    Notizen: Gas-solid reactions cover a wide spectrum of industrial products. Over the years, many conceptual models have been developed to describe the progress of a gas-solid reaction starting outside the solid particle as well as that occurring throughout the particle. But the behaviour of a reaction, initiated inside the pellet, is less known. In this paper, a brief outline is given of this relatively rare but important mode of gas-solid reaction. The causes of this relatively less known behaviour and characteristic features of five typical systems displaying it are discussed.

    Notizen: Summary The presence of calcitonin in the cat thyroid was studied immunohistochemically in a series of gland development. the first positive cells are to be found on the 38th day of gestation, i.e. 1–2 days after level nine of ontogenetic development has been reached. The cytoplasm of these cells form only a narrow border round the nucleus. With advancing development the bumber of calcitonin-positive and its amount increases. From approximately the 50th day of prenatal development, the initially diffusely scattered, solitary calcitonin-positive cells are gradually replaced by groups of cells, which begin to occupy a characteristic position in relation to the follicular epithelium. The largest quantity of calcitonin-positive cells is found in foetuses about to be born. In non-pregnant adult cats, the incidence of immunohistochemically calcitonin-reactive cell is more sporadic and their distribution in the lobes of the thyroid is uneven.

    Notizen: Summary The relative roles of capillaries and odontoblasts in the process of dentinogenesis and in pulp reactions to trauma and pathology are not clear. Contributing to the problem is the paucity of information on odontoblast —capillary relationships and tight junctions between odontoblasts. Using light microscopy the capillaries have now been examined in semithin transverse sections of perfusion fixed teeth at different positions in the long axis from the apical foramina to the pulp horns. Odontoblastic capillaries were prominent in the coronal and middle regions of canines and present at the same levels of incisors. In the pulp horns and just coronal to the pulp horns capillaries were all subodontoblastic but near the apex there were also a few odontoblastic capillary profiles. Transmission electron microscopy on ultrathin sections revealed that a high proportion of middle and coronal odontoblastic capillary profiles were fenestrated but subodontoblastic profiles coronal to the pulp horns were the most fenestrated. In a search for tight junctions in ultrathin sections some typical strands were observed between odontoblasts. The difficult of obtaining the latter evidence was explained by the cellular arrangement of the odontoblasts which differed markedly from an ideal parallel, apically coplanar arrangement. The results question the possibility that there is a direct exchange of materials between pulp capillaries and dentine in teeth of limited growth and provide a baseline for future experiments to test the permeability of the odontoblast layer.

    Notizen: Summary A hydrocephalic-hydromyelic condition was induced in adult cats by causing the closure of the lateral apertures with intracisternal injections of kaolin. After displaying the symptoms characteristic of increased intracranial pressure, which lasted about 10–14 days but varied somewhat in intensity from animal to animal, the cats recovered. From approximately the 2nd post-operative week onward, a distended central canal was revealed by ventriculography; subsequently cavities developed in the tissue of the cord that communicated with the canal. Most cavities were located dorsal to the canal. The surfaces of the distended canal and the cavities showed that in ventral areas the ependyma streched but remained intact, whereas in dorsal areas it ruptured, exposing the nerve fibers to the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). In cats which had been hydrocephalic for up to 2 years the walls of the cavities were covered by gliotic scar tissue; the nerve fibers were no longer exposed directly to the CSF.

    Notizen: Summary Horizontal and vertical eye movements were recorded from cats in response to either a) off-vertical axis rotation (OVAR) at a range of velocities (5–72 deg/s) and a range of tilts (0–60 deg) or b) horizontal (with respect to the cat) optokinetic stimulation (10–80 deg/s), also around a range of tilted axes (0–60 deg). The responses to stopping either of these stimuli were also measured: post-rotatory nystagmus (PRN) following actual rotation, and optokinetic after nystagmus (OKAN) following optokinetic stimulation. The response found during OVAR was a nystagmus with a bias slow-phase velocity that was sinusoidally modulated. The bias was dependent on the tilt and reached 50% of its maximum velocity (maximum was 73±23% of the table velocity) at a tilt of 16 deg. The phase of modulation in horizontal eye velocity bore no consistent relation to the angular rotation. The amplitude of this modulation was roughly correlated with the bias with a slope of 0.13 (deg/s) modulation/(deg/s) bias velocity. There was also a low-velocity vertical bias with the slow-phases upwardly directed. The vertical bias was also modulated and the amplitude depended on the bias velocity (0.27 (deg/s) modulation/ (deg/s) bias velocity). When separated from the canal dependent response, the build up of the OVAR response had a time constant of 5.0±0.8 s. Following OVAR there was no decline in the time constant of PRN which remained at the value measured during earth-vertical axis rotation (EVAR) (6.3±2 s). The peak amplitude of PRN was reduced, dependent on the tilt, reaching only 20% of its EVAR value for a tilt of 20 deg. When a measurable PRN was found, it was accompanied by a slowly-emerging vertical component (time constant 5.4±2s) the effect of which was to vector the PRN accurately onto the earth horizontal. OKN measured about a tilted axis showed no differences in magnitude or direction from EVAR OKN even for tilts as large as 60 deg. OKAN following optokinetic stimulation around a tilted axis appeared normal in the horizontal plane (with respect to the animal) but was accompanied by a slowly emerging (time constant 4.1±2 s) vertical component, the effect of which was to vector the overall OKAN response onto the earth horizontal for tilts less than 20 deg. These results are compared with data from monkey and man and discussed in terms of the involvement of the velocity storage mechanism.
