    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Une technique nouvelle, permettant l'analyse de la densité de faibles quantités de tissus calcifiés pulvérisés, est décrite. Cette technique utilise un analyseur électronique de taille de particules et de volume (»Compteur de Coulter«), pour déterminer les volumes relatifs des fractions pulvérisées, isolées par fractionnement densitométrique, après centrifugation dans des mélanges de solvants organiques. Certains des paramètres, responsables de la distribution densitométrique des poudres d'os, sont étudiés et la reproductibilité du fractionnement et de l'analyse est démontrée. L'application de cette méthode à l'os humain est illustrée par des résultats.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Es wird eine neue Technik zur Bestimmung der Dichteverteilung von kleinen Mengen pulverisiertem Knochengewebe beschrieben. Für diese Technik wird ein Apparat zur elektronischen Messung von Partikelgröße und-Volumen (Coulter Counter) verwendet; damit wird das totale relative Volumen der pulverisierten Fraktionen bestimmt, die durch Aufteilung der verschiedenen Dichten mittels Zentrifugieren in Mischungen von organischen Lösungsmitteln isoliert werden. Einige der Parameter, welche die Dichteverteilung von Knochenpulver beeinflussen, wurden untersucht und die Reproduzierbarkeit der Fraktionierung und der Analysen aufgezeigt. Die Anwendung dieser Technik auf Proben von Menschenknochen wird veranschaulicht und die Resultate werden besprochen.
    Notes: Abstract A new technique for the density distribution analysis of small quantities of powdered hard tissues is described. The technique uses an electronic particle size and volume analyser (“Coulter Counter”) to determine the total relative volumes of the powder fractions isolated by centrifugal density fractionation in organic solvent mixtures. Some of the parameters controlling the density distributions of bone powders are examined and the reproducibility of the fractionation and analysis demonstrated. The application of this technique to human bone samples is illustrated and the results discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des expériences ont été faites sur le rat afin de tester les possiblités d'ingestion perorale simultanée de fluor (F) et de calcium (Ca) en proportions calculées pour traitement de certaines ostéopénies humaines. F sous forme de Na2PO3F et Ca sous forme de gluconate de calcium (CaGluc) n'influençaient pas l'un l'autre quant à l'utilisation par le squelette (fémur). Une viscosité élevée, produite par l'addition d'amidon ou de cellulose carboxyméthylée (CMC) à la solution ou dilution ingérée, augmentait l'utilisation du F même si CaGluc était remplacé par citrate de calcium, qui en soi avait un effet réducteur modéré sur l'utilisation du F. Le glycérophosphate de calcium réduisait fortement l'utilisation du F même en présence de CMC. L'utilisation du F comme NaF était fortement réduite par CaGluc, même en présence de CMC. Les concentrations testées de Na2PO3F, NaF ou CMC n'influençaient pas l'utilisation squelettique de Ca comme CaGluc.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Es wurden Rattenexperimente mit markierten Substanzen durchgeführt, um die Auswirkung simultaner peroraler Gaben von Fluor (F) und von Calcium (Ca) zu prüfen, und zwar in einem Verhältnis, das für die Behandlung gewisser menschlicher Osteopenien berechnet wurde. Fluor in Form von Na2PO3F und Ca in Form von Calciumgluconat (CaGluc) interferieren gegenseitig nicht bei der Verwertung durch das Skelet (Femur). Eine hohe Viscosität der eingegebenen Lösung oder der Aufschlämmung, die durch Zusatz von Stärke oder Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) erzielt wurde, erhöhte die Verwertbarkeit von F sogar wenn CaGluc durch Calciumcitrat ersetzt wurde, welches die F-Verwertung leicht reduzierte. Calcium-glyzerophosphat verminderte die Fluoraufnahme in den Knochen stark, sogar in Anwesenheit von CMC. Die Verwertung von F als NaF war stark herabgesetzt durch CaGluc, selbst beim Vorhandensein von CMC. Die untersuchten Konzentrationen von Na2PO3F, NaF oder CMC hatten keinen Einfluß auf die Calciumaufnahme im Skelet in Form von CaGluc.
    Notes: Abstract Rat experiments with labelled compounds were carried out in order to test the possibilities of simultaneous peroral supply of fluorine (F) and calcium (Ca) in proportions calculated for treatment of certain human osteopenias. F in the form of Na2PO3F and Ca in the form of calcium gluconate (CaGluc) did not interfere with each other's utilisation by the skeleton (femur). A high viscosity produced by adding starch or carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) to the ingested solution or slurry increased the utilisation of F even when CaGluc was replaced by calcium citrate, which moderately reduced F utilisation. Calcium glycerophosphate strongly reduced F utilisation even in the presence of CMC. The utilisation of F as NaF was strongly reduced by CaGluc, even in the presence of CMC. The tested concentrations of Na2PO3F, NaF or CMC did not influence the skeletal utilisation of Ca as CaGluc.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Après injection intraperitonéale de22Na, la rétention de l'isotope a été déterminée dans l'organisme entier de rasé et dans leur tissu osseux, pendant une période allant jusqu'à 650 jours. Contrairement au45Ca, qui est rapidement concentré dans l'os, puis lentement éliminé, la presque totalité du22Na absorbée par l'os le quitte avec une demie-période de 3–5.5 jours. Cependant, environ 5% de la charge squelettique présente une vitesse de mobilisation lente, avec une demie-période d'environ 700 jours. Etant donné que cette vitesse est comparable à celle de45Ca, il semble que la faible fraction de Na osseux fasse partie de la structure du cristal. Seuls deux des procédés expérimentaux utilisés ont un effet significatif sur la mobilisation du Na. Il s'agit de la consommation prolongée d'un régime pauvre en calcium et d'un changement de l'activité parathyroidienne. Une augmentation du Na alimentaire affecte l'augmentation de la vitesse de mobilisation du sodium dans son composé rapide, alors que le composé lent est peu ou pas affecté. Les calculs effectués, à partir de nos résultats, indiquent que, contrairement au calcium, le squelette ne sert pas de réservoir significatif pour le maintien du milieu liquide extracellulaire.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Ratten erhielten intraperitoneal22Na, und die Retention dieses Isotopes wurde während einer Zeitspanne bis zu 650 Tagen im ganzen Körper und in den Knochen bestimmt. Im Gegensatz zu45Ca, welches sehr rasch von den Knochen aufgenommen und dann nur langsam abgegeben wird, verschwindet der größte Teil des vom Knochen aufgenommenen22Na in einer Halbwertzeit von 3–5,5 Tagen. Jedoch zeigen etwa 5% des Knochengerüstes einen sehr langsamen Turnover mit einer Halbwertzeit von ungefähr 700 Tagen. Da dieser Anteil jenem von45Ca vergleichbar ist, kann daraus geschlossen werden, daß diese kleine Fraktion des Na vom Knochen einen integralen Teil der Kristallstruktur ausmacht. Nur zwei der verschiedenen experimentellen Anordnungen, welche ausprobiert wurden, ergaben eine signifikante Wirkung auf den Na-Turnover im Knochen. Diese bestanden einerseits aus einer langzeitigen Verfütterung von Ca-armer Diät, andererseits aus einer Veränderung der Parathyreoidea-Aktivität. Eine Erhöhung der Na in der Nahrung beeinflußte die schnelle Komponente des Na-Turnover im Knochen; sie zeigte aber wenig bis keine Wirkung auf die langsame Komponente. Berechnungen aus unseren Resultaten lassen vermuten, daß — im Gegensatz zum Ca — das Skelet keine signifikante Reservoir-Funktion zur Erhaltung des Na in der extracellulären Flüssigkeit ausübt.
    Notes: Abstract Rats were given22Na intraperitoneally and the retention of the isotope was determined in whole body and in bone for periods up to 650 days. In contrast to45Ca, which is rapidly taken up by bone and then very slowly released, most of the22Na taken up by bone leaves, with a halftime of 3–5.5 days. However, about 5% of the skeletal burden exhibits a very slow turnover, with a half-time of about 700 days. Since this rate is comparable to that of45Ca, it is concluded that this small fraction of bone Na is an integral part of the crystal structure. Only two of the several experimental procedures which were tried produced a significant effect on bone Na turnover. These were prolonged feeding of a low calcium diet and a change in parathyroid activity. An increase in dietary Na affected the fast component of bone Na turnover, but there was little if any effect on the slow component. Calculations from our data suggest that, in contrast to Ca, the skeleton does not serve a significant reservoir function for the support of extracellular fluid Na.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'effet du courant électrique sur la collagène soluble, en solution dans l'acide acétique dilué, a été étudié pour des voltages, variant de O à 25 volts. Au-dessus de 2,6 volts, la vormation des bandes collagéniques (définies dans ce travail) parait inversement proportionelle, dans le temps, au voltage appliqué. La formation des bandes parait liée au processus d'électrolyse. Les auteurs démontrent que les pH élevés se situent au niveau de la cathode et qu'ils sont suffisants pour induire une précipitation du collagène. Les résultats antérieurs, publiés dans la littérature, décrivant l'action de courant électrique implanté, sont interpretés en fonction du mécanisme étudié au cours de ce travail.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Die Wirkung eines elektrischen Stromes auf verdünnte essigsaure Lösungen von löslichem Kollagen wurde bei Spannungen zwischen O und 25 Volt untersucht. Über 2,6 Volt wurde die Bildung von Kollagenbanden (in der Arbeit näher beschrieben) beobachtet, und zwar nach Zeiten, die der angewandten Spannung entgegengesetzt proportional verliefen. Die Bandenbildung wird dem Elektrolyseprozeß zugeschrieben. Wir konnten zeigen, daß sich die hohen pH-Werte rund um die Kathode entwickelten und daß diese genügen, um die Kollagenfällung zu veranlassen. Die Natur dieses Vorganges ist solcher Art, daß erin vivo als Antwort auf durch Stress verursachte Biopotentiale nicht vorkommen kann. Der hier beschriebene Mechanismus erlaubt es, Literaturangaben über den Effekt von implantierten Spannungsquellen zu interpretieren.
    Notes: Abstract The effect of electric current on dilute acetic acid solutions of soluble collagen has been studied for impressed voltages of from 0 to 25 volts. Above 2.6 volts the formation of collagen bands (herein defined) were observed at times inversely proportional to the applied voltage. Band formation is attributed to the process of electrolysis. It has been shown that the high pH values are generated in the area of the cathode, and that they are sufficient to induce collagen to precipitate. The nature of the process is such that it cannot occurin vivo as a response to stress induced biopotentials. Reports in the literature describing the effect of implanted voltage sources are interpreted in terms of the mechanism described here.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Un procédé de dissection a été mis au point pour permettre l'analyse zonale du cartilage de l'épiphyse des os de la jambe d'un foetus bovin. Des échantillons de tissu complet et lavé venant des différentes zones ont été analysés pour déterminer leur contenu en électrolyte et en constituants organiques, ainsi que pour leur densité, cendres et humidité. Les résultats ont montré que lorsque la quantité de cendres et la densité augmentaient, l'eau contenu dans le tissu diminuait. Les quantités de cendres dans les zones de cartilage en voie de calcification étaient plus grandes qu'il avait été. Quand elles étaient exprimées comme un pourcentage du poids sec, elles étaient les plus importantes dans le cartilage lavé calcifié que dans le autre zones. Au début de la minéralisation du cartilage, la quantité de Na (m moles/l de tissu frais) diminuait tandis que celles du Ca et du P inorganique augmentaient. Les niveaux de Mg augmentaient pendant que la calcification se poursuivait, mais seulement à une faction du taux du Ca et du P. Les rapports Ca/P inorganique étaient les plus grands dans le cartilage au repos (Cartilage non-différentié hyalin), suggérant un lien initiale entre Ca et les chrondromucoprotéines. Cependant, au début de la calcification, pendant la prolifération du cartilage les rapports Ca/P étaient beaucoup plus petits (ca. 1.50) mais augmentaient graduellement avec l'advancement de la minéralisation. Des changements importants survenaient dans la composition de la phase organique, pendant la calcification endochondrale. Comme il a été déterminé par l'analyse de l'hydroxyproline la quantité de collagéne diminuait progressivement pendant la calcification du cartilage, mais augmentait rapidement pendant la formation d'os. Comme il a été déterminé par l'analyse de l'héxosamine et du sulfute les chrondromucoprotéines étaient aux niveaux les plus éléves pendant la prolifération du cartilage et diminuaient constamment au cours de la calcification. Cependant, bien que la calcification était déja très avancée dans le cartilage hypertrophique, de grandes quantites de mucopolysaccharides étaient encore présentes. Les rapports sulfure/hhéxosamine montraient un léger déclin pendant les premiéres étapes de la calcification, mais augmentaient beaucoup pendant le cours de la minéralisation. Les quantités d'acide sialique étaient plus grandes dans le cartilage de l'épiphyse que dans le cartilage au repos ou dans l'os. Les lipides augmentaient rapidement pendant la calcification du cartilage, mais étaient très réduites dans l'os complètement formé. La signification de ces résultats est discutée.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Eine Seziermethode, die eine Schichten-Analyse der Beinepiphysenplatte von Rinderfeten erlaubt, wurde entwickelt. Proben vor und nach Waschen des Gewebes der verschiedenen Schichten werden untersucht in bezug auf Elektrolyte und organische Bestandteile, als auch in bezug auf Dichte, Aschengehalt und Feuchtigkeit. Die Resultate zeigten eine Zunahme des Aschengehaltes und der Dichte, während der Wassergehalt abnahm. Unerwartet hoch waren die Aschenwerte im in Verkalkung begriffenen Knorpel. Ausgedrückt in Prozent Trockengewicht, ergab gewaschener, verkalkter Knorpel den höchsten Wert aller Zonen. In den Frühstadien der Knorpelmineralisation nahm der Natriumgehalt (m Mol/l Frischgewebe) ab, während Ca und anorganischer P zunahmen. Mit fortschreitender Verkalkung erhöhte sich auch der Magnesium-Spiegel, allerdings nur zu einem Bruchteil des Ausmaßes, in welchem Ca und P zunahmen. Die höchsten Ca/P anorg. Verhältnisse wurden im Ruheknorpel (undifferenzierter hyaliner Knorpel) gefunden, was auf eine initiale Bindung von Ca durch Chondromucoproteine hinweist. Die Ca/P-Verhältnisse proliferierenden Knorpels waren jedoch bei Verkalkungsbeginn viel tiefer (ca. 1.50). Diese nahmen allerdings mit fortschreitender Mineralisierung stetig zu. In der endochondralen Verkalkungsphase fanden markante Veränderungen in der Zusammensetzung des organischen Anteils statt. Basierend auf der Hydroxyprolinanalyse nahm der Collagengehalt in der knorpeligen Verkalkungsperiode fortschreitend ab, während er jedoch bei der Knochenbildung rasch zunahm. Die an Hand von Hexosamin- und Schwefelanalysen bestimmten Chondromucoproteingehalte ergaben Höchstwerte im proliferierenden Knorpel und fielen stetig ab mit zunehmender Verkalkung. Trotz der im hypertrophischen Knorpel schon weit fortgeschrittenen Verkalkung waren immer noch große Mengen an Mucopolysacchariden vorhanden. Die Schwefel/Hexosamin-Verhältnisse zeigten eine minimale Abnahme in den frühen Verkalkungsphasen, nahmen jedoch markant zu bei fortschreitender Mineralisation. Der Sialinsäurespiegel war im Epiphysenknorpel, verglichen mit demjenigen des Ruheknorpels oder Knochens, erhöht. In der knorpeligen Verkalkungsphase nahmen die Lipide rasch zu, während jedoch die Werte des vollständig ausgebildeten Knochens stark vermindert waren. Die Bedeutung dieser Ergebnisse wird besprochen.
    Notes: Abstract A dissection procedure has been devised to permit zonal analysis of the epiphyseal plate of fetal calf leg bones. Samples of whole and washed tissue from the various zones were analyzed for their content of electrolyte and organic constituents, as well as for density, ash and moisture. Results showed that as ash content and density increased, water content decreased. Ash levels in calcifying cartilage zones were unexpectedly high. When expressed as a percentage of dry weight, washed calcified cartilage had the highest content of any zone. In the early stages of the mineralization of cartilage, Na content (mmoles/l of fresh tissue) decreased as Ca and inorganic P increased. Magnesium levels increased as calcification proceeded, but only at a fraction of the rate of Ca and P. Ratios of Ca/inorganic P were highest in resting cartilage (non-differentiated hyaline cartilage), suggesting an initial binding of Ca to chondromucoproteins. However, at the onset of calcification in proliferating cartilage, Ca/P ratios were much lower (ca. 1.50), but gradually increased with advancing mineralization. Marked changes occurred in the composition of the organic phase during endochondral calcification. As determined by hydroxyproline analysis, collagen content progressively decreased during cartilaginous calcification, but increased rapidly during bone formation. As determined by hexosamine and sulfur analysis, chondromucoproteins were at highest levels in proliferating cartilage and decreased steadily as calcification increased. However, although calcification was already well advanced in hypertrophic cartilage, large amounts of mucopolysaccharide still were present. Sulfur/hexosamine ratios showed a slight decline during the early stages of calcification, but increased markedly with further mineralization. Sialic acid levels were elevated in epiphyseal cartilage over those in resting cartilage or bone. Lipids increased rapidly during cartilaginous calcification, but were greatly reduced in fully-formed bone. The significance of these findings is discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Les effects d'une dose de 1 mg de vitamine D3 (40 000 Unités,) administrée par voie intra-veineuse, ont été étudiés sur l'histologie osseuse et le métabolisme du phosphore chez 19 sujets contrôles dont l'histologie était normale et 28 malades présentant les caractères histologiques de l'ostéomalacie par carence vitaminique D. L'administration de la vitamine D n'a entraîné aucune modification histologique ou biologique significative chez les sujets contrôles. Mais chez les ostéomalaciques, il est apparu en moins de sept jours une augmentation très significative du front de calcification à l'interface tissue-ostéoïde-tissue-calcifié. Cette modification s'accompagnait d'une ascension progressive de la phosphatémie et de la réabsorption tubulaire du phosphore atteignant dans le même délai des valeurs normales.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Bei 19 Patienten mit normaler Knochenhistologie und bei 28 Patienten mit histologisch gesicherter Osteomalacie wurde die Wirkung von 1 mg Vitamin D3 (40000 Iv) i.v. auf die Knochenhistologie und den Phosphatmetabolismus untersucht. Bei den Kontrollpatienten konnten keine signifikanten Änderungen nach Vitamin D festgestellt werden, wogegen die Osteomalacie-patienten innerhalb von 7 Tagen eine deutliche Zunahme der Verkalkungszone an der Grenze zwischen Osteoid- und Knochengewebe zeigten. Diese Änderung war von einer fortschreitenden Zunahme des Serum-Phosphates, verbunden mit einer gesteigerten renalen tubulären Rückabsorption des Phosphates begleitet; beide kehrten anschließend gleichzeitig wieder zur Norm zurück.
    Notes: Abstract The effect of a 1 mg dose of intravenous Vitamin D3 (40,000 i.u.) on bone histology and phosphate metabolism was investigated in 19 patients with normal bone histology and 28 patients with histological evidence of osteomalacia. No significant changes occurred in the control patients after Vitamin D but the patients with osteomalacia showed a marked increase, within seven days, in the proportion of osteoid having a calcification front. This was accompanied by a progressive rise in the serum phosphate, which was associated with an increase in the renal tubular reabsorption of phosphate to normal.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La proportion Sr/Ca dans l'os est à peu près la même que dans le sérum tandis que les poudres d'hydroxyapatite suspendues dans des solution physiologiques font une distinction contre le strontium. On trouva que la proportion Sr/Ca des fractions de différentes densités d'os compact de tibia de rat en forme de poudre augmentait avec augmentation de la densité jusqu'à une valeur un peu supérieure à celle observée dans le sérum. L'explication pourrait être qu'une barrière cellulaire ôte le calcium par préférence au strontium du fluide d'os ou bien qu'une accentuation précoce de la proportion Sr/Ca dans l'os se réfléchit dans les fractions de densité supérieure.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Das Verhältnis Sr/Ca im Knochen ist annähernd dasselbe wie es im Serum vorliegt, während in einer physiologischen Lösung von pulverisiertem Hydroxyapatit das Sr zugunsten des Ca benachteiligt wird. Es wurde festgestellt, daß das Sr/Ca-Verhältnis von Fraktionen verschiedener Dichte von pulverisierten Rattentibiae mit zunehmender Dichte anstieg, und zwar bis zu einem Wert, der etwas höher lag als der im Serum beobachtete. Dies ließe sich so erklären, daß eine Zellbarriere beim Entzug aus der Knochenflüssigkeit Ca dem Sr vorzieht; oder aber daß sich eine frühzeitige Betonung des für den Knochen typischen Sr/Ca-Verhältnisses in den Fraktionen höherer Dichte widerspiegelt.
    Notes: Abstract The Sr/Ca ration in bone is approximately the same as in serum, whereas hydroxyapatite powders suspended in physiological solutions discriminate against strontium. It was found that the Sr/Ca ratio of various density fractions of powdered compact bone of rat tibia increased with increasing density to a value slightly higher than that observed in the serum. The explanation could be that a cellular barrier removes calcium preferentially to strontium from the bone fluid, or that early accentuation of the bone Sr/Ca ration is reflected in the higher density fractions.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'ingestion quotidienne de calcium of été déterminée en interrogeant 398 individus, âgés de 15 à 90 ans. Le rapport entre l'ingestion de calcium et la minéralisation vertébrale, mesurée par densitométrie radiographique quantitative, est fiable mais cependant significatif. Chez 53 personnes, atteintes d'ostéoporose, comparées à un nombre égal d'individus, d'âges similaires, les valeurs de la minéralisation vertébrale sont 60 pour cent plus faibles que celles du groupe témoin. L'ingestion totale moyenne de calcium est plus faible de 21 per cent chez les ostéoporotiques. Chez les sujets, à ingestion unique de calcium, les patients du groupe témoin ingèrent preque le double de calcium que le groupe des ostéoporotiques. Une diminution moyenne de l'ingestion calcique est notée avec l'âge. Il semble qu'il existe une diminution de l'absorption calcique avec l'âge, l'ostéoporose ou les deux, ainsi qu'un besoin plus grand en calcium chez les sujets âgés pour assurer l'équilibre en calcium. Indépendamment de l'homéostase calcique, un équilibre négatif en calcium augmente la résorption osseuse, et diminue l'ostéogenèse. De nombreux facteurs interviennent dans l'étiologie et la pathogénie de l'ostéoporose: les résultats de cette étude indique que la présence de calcium alimentaire est l'un de ces facteurs.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Die tägliche Calciumeinnahme wurde anhand einer Befragung von 398 Personen im Alter von 15–90 Jahren geschätzt. Die Korrelation der Calciumeinnahme und der Mineralisation der Wirbelsäule, wie sie röntgenologisch durch quantitative Messung der Dichte festgestellt wurde, war niedrig, aber durchwegs signifikant. Bei 53 Osteoporose-Patienten, die mit 53 Kontrollpersonen gleichen Alters verglichen wurden, waren die Mineralisationswerte der Wirbelsäule um 60% niedriger als jene der Kontrollgruppe, und die durchschnittlich geschätzte Gesamt-Calciumeinnahme der Osteoporotiker war um 21% tiefer. Von den Exploranden, die Angaben über eine gleichmäßige Calciumaufnahme machten, nahmen die Kontrollpersonen beinahe doppelt so viel Calcium ein als diejenigen mit Osteoporose. Im Durchschnitt wurde eine Verminderung der Calciumeinnahme mit fortschreitendem Alter festgestellt. Es ergibt sich deutlich, daß die Calciumabsorption mit dem Alter, bei Osteoporose oder in der Kombination dieser beiden Faktoren abnimmt, und daß eine größere Calciumeinnahme bei älteren Personen nötig wäre, um eine positive Calciumbilanz aufrechtzuerhalten. Ungeachtet der Komplexität der Calciumhomöostase, kann eine negative Calciumbilanz schließlich dazu führen, daß mehr Knochen resorbiert als gebildet wird. Demzufolge sollte bei erkanntem Bedürfnis eine adäquate Calciumeinnahme gesichert sein. Es ist eine Tatsache, daß viele Faktoren an der Ätiologie und Pathogenese der Osteoporose beteiligt sind; die Resultate dieses Berichtes unterstützen die Wahrscheinlichkeit, daß das Calciumangebot in der Nahrung einer dieser Faktoren ist.
    Notes: Abstract Lifetime daily calcium intake was estimated through interview of 398 individuals from 15 to 90 years of age. The correlation of calcium intake with vertebral mineralization as determined by quantitative radiographic densitometry was low but persistently significant. In 53 persons with osteoporosis matched by age with 53 individuals from the control group, vertebral mineralization values were 60% lower than those of the control group, and the mean estimated total calcium intake in osteoporotics was 21% lower. In those persons reporting a single lifetime calcium intake, the control patients ingested almost twice as much calcium as those with osteoporosis. A mean decrease in calcium intake with advancing years has been shown. Evidence points to a decrease in calcium absorption with age, osteoporosis, or both, as well as a greater need for calcium intake in the elderly to maintain a positive calcium balance. Regardless of the intricacies of calcium homeostasis, a negative calcium balance leads eventually to greater bone resorption than formation, hence the rationality of insuring an adequate calcium intake with recognized nutritional needs. Evidence suggests that many factors are involved in the etiology and pathogenesis of osteoporosis; the data in this report support the likelihood that availability of calcium in the diet is one of them.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Une méthode quantitative pour étudier les effets précoces des hormones et autres agents sur la mobilisation du calcium osseux a été mise au point. Des moitiés de calottes craniennes de souris de 6 jours, ayant reçu du45Ca quatre jours auparavant, sont explantéesin vitro et placées dans des récipients séparés, en milieu liquide; une moitié sert de témoin, l'autre moitié est utilisée pour l'expérimentation. Ce mode d'action dans le temps, de chaque produit testé, est déterminé en prélevant aseptiquement de petits échantillons dans le milieu et en dosant l'isotope. L'hormone parathyroidienne et la vitamine A provoquent une résorption osseuse étendue ainsi qu'un passage augmenté du45Ca des os traités dans le milieu, au bout de 2 heures, si on les compare aux témoins. La calcitonine inhibe rapidement la mobilisation du45Ca des os résorbés: l'intervalle de temps est similaire à celui obtenuin vivo en abaissant le calcium sérique. Nos résultats indiquent que les agents, qui induisent la résorption osseuse, augmentent à la fois le nombre des ostéoclastes et l'efficacité des cellules existantes, en ce qui concerne la mobilisation du calcium. La calcitonine inhibe la libération du45Ca des explants vivants, maintenus dans un milieu contrôle. Cette réduction est attribuée à la suppression de la résorption endogène, en cours au moment de la transplantation: un échange isotopique est toujours observé, comme au niveau des explants sur vivants.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Eine quantitative Methode zur Bestimmung der Früheffekte von Hormonen oder andern Wirkstoffen auf die Wanderung von Calcium in den oder aus dem Knochen wurde entwickelt. Calvarien-Hälften von 6 Tagen alten, 4 Tage früher mit45Ca markierten Mäusen werden explantiert und in getrennten Schalen mit flüssiger Nährlösungin vitro belassen. Die eine Hälfte dient als Kontrolle, die andere wird für das Experiment eingesetzt. Anhand kleiner Proben, die den Medien aseptisch entnommen und auf ihren Isotopengehalt geprüft werden, kann die Wirkung der verschiedenen Agentien im Verlaufe der Zeit beobachtet werden. Sowohl Parahormon als auch Vitamin A verursachen eine ausgedehnte Knochenresorption und es wurde, im Vergleich zu den Kontrollen, innerhalb von 2 Std eine gesteigerte Abgabe von45Ca aus den behandelten Knochen in das Medium nachgewiesen, Die Freisetzung von45Ca aus resorbierenden Knochen wird durch Calcitonin rasch inhibiert. Wirkungsweise und Verlauf bestehen, wiein vivo, in einer Senkung des Serum-Calciums. Unsere Resultate zeigen, daß Wirkstoffe, welche eine Knochenresorption veranlassen, sowohl die Zahl der polynucleären Osteoklasten ansteigen lassen als auch die vorhandenen Zellen zur vermehrten Calcium-Mobilisation anregen. Calcitonin dagegen verhindert die Bildung neuer, polynucleärer Osteoklasten wie auch die Mobilisation von Knochenmineral durch die vorhandenen Osteoklasten. Calcitonin wirkt hemmend auf die Abgabe von45Ca von lebenden Explantaten, die in Kontrollmedium kultiviert werden. Diese Abnahme wird der Unterdrückung der endogenen Resorption zugeschrieben, welche im Moment der Knochenexplantation im Gange ist; der Austausch des Isotopes findet weiterhin statt, wie dies bei einem toten Explantat der Fall ist.
    Notes: Abstract A sensitive method has been developed for studying the early effects of hormones and other agents on the movement of calcium into and out of bone. Half-calvariae from 6-day-old mice that have been pulsed four days previously with45Ca, are explanted into separate dishes of liquid medium and maintainedin vitro; one half serves as control and the other for experimentation. The time course of action of any agent is followed by removing small samples aseptically from the media and analysing for isotope. Both parathyroid hormone and vitamin A cause extensive bone resorption, and as compared with controls an increased release of45Ca from the treated bones into the medium can be detected within 2 hours. Calcitonin rapidly inhibits the release of45Ca from resorbing bones; the time course is similar to that for its actionin vivo in lowering serum calcium. Our results indicate that agents that induce bone resorption increase both the number of multinucleate osteoclasts and the effectiveness of the existing cells in mobilising calcium. Calcitonin prevents the formation of new multinucleate osteoclasts, and also prevents existing osteoclasts from mobilising bone mineral. Calcitonin inhibits the release of45Ca from living explants maintained in control medium. This reduction is attributed to the suppression of the endogenous resorption that is in progress when the bones are explanted; exchange of isotope still occurs, as in a dead explant.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Extraction des acides ribonucléiques (RNA) à pH 7,6 et à pH 9,0 en presence du phénol donne 70–75 p. 100 de la teneur en RNA total du tissu osseux du Lapin regénérant après une ostéotomie standardisée, dans l'extrait à pH 7,6 et 10–15 p. 100 dans l'extrait à pH 9,0. 50–70 p. 100 du RNA des diaphyses des os du Lapin qui n'était pas soumis à une ostéotomie sont extraits à pH 7,6 avec une quantité très faible à pH 9,0. Fractionnement des extraits par chromatographie sur 2 p. 100 agarose ou par précipitation avec du NaCl (3M) donne une fraction constituée par du rRNA et characterisée par la composition nucléotidique. Cette fraction correspond à 70 p. 100 du RNA extrait à pH 7,6 et à 65–75 p. 100 du RNA extrait à pH 9,0 de l'os regénérant et à 85 p. 100 du RNA extrait de l'os normal. 10 p. 100 du RNA extrait de l'os regénérant et 5 p. 100 du RNA extrait de l'os normal sont de poids moleculaire plus haut que le rRNA. Les RNA de poids moleculaire plus bas que le rRNA représentent 20 p. 100 du RNA extrait à pH 7,6 et 25–35 p. 100 du RNA extrait à pH 9,0 de l'os regénérant et 10 p. 100 du RNA extrait de l'os normal. Les résultats de centrifugation en gradients de saccharose entre 5 et 20 p. 100 correspondent aux résultats des études de fractionnement.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Wird die RNS aus Kaninchenknochengewebe, das sich in der Regenerationsphase nach standardisierter Osteotomie befindet, mit wäßrigen Phenollösungen, extrahiert, so werden bei einem pH-Wert des Extraktes von 7,6 70–75% des totalen RNS-Gehaltes erhalten, gegenüber 10–15% bei einem, pH-Wert von 9,0. Von der normalen Kaninchenradiusdiaphyse ist die Ausbeute an RNS 50–70% bei einer Extraktion im Bereich von pH 7,6 und nur wenige Prozente bei pH 9,0. Eine Fraktionierung der Extrakte mittels Gelchromatographie auf 2% Agarose und durch Behandlung mit 3M Natriumchlorid ergab eine Fraktion, die der rRNS entspricht und durch ihre Nucleotidzusammensetzung charakterisiert ist. Diese Fraktion erreicht bei regenerierenden Knochen 70% der RNS in den bei pH 7,6 gewonnenen Extrakten, 65–75% in jenen bei pH 9,0. während bei normalen Knochen die Ausbeute an RNS 85% bei pH 7,6 betrug. Im Extrakt von pH 7,6 waren beim regenerierenden Knochen 10% und bei normalen Knochen 5% der RNS von höherem Molekulargewicht als rRNS. Kleiner molekular als rRNS waren 20% der RNS in den Extrakten des regenerierenden Knochens bei pH 7,6 und 25–35% bei pH 9,0, während die entsprechenden Extrakte beim normalen Knochen nur 10% dieser kleinmolekularen RNS enthielten. Das Sedimentationsbild mit 5–20% linearen Saccharosegradienten entsprach den Ergebnissen der Fraktionierungsversuche.
    Notes: Abstract Extraction of RNA with aqueous phenolic solutions of pH 7.6 and pH 9.0 yielded 70–75% of the total RNA content of rabbit bone tissue, regenerating after standardized osteotomies, in the pH 7.6 extract and 10–15% in the pH 9.0 extract. From normal rabbit radius diaphysis, 50–70% of the RNA was extracted at pH 7.6 and oly a few per cent at pH 9.0. Fractionation of the extracts by gel chromatography on 2% agarose and by treatment with 3M sodium chloride gave a, fraction corresponding to rRNA and characterized by base composition. This fraction amounted to 70% of the RNA in the pH 7.6 extracts, to 65–75% of the RNA in pH 9.0 extracts from regenerating bone and to 85% of the RNA in pH 7.6 extracts from normal bone. 10% of the RNA in pH 7.6 extracts from regenerating bone and 5% of that in extracts from normal bone were of larger size than rRNA. 20% of the RNA in pH 7.6 extracts and 25–35% in pH 9.0 extracts from regenerating bone and 10% in those from normal bone were of lower size than rRNA. The sedimentation pattern in 5–20% linear sucrose gradients corresponded to the results of the fractionation studies.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'objet de cette étude a été de déterminer l'effet du mode de préparation (par meulage) sur la largeur des raies de diffraction de l'émail. La préparation d'émail, par meulage, en utilisant divers procédés ainsi qu'une pièce à main dentaire conventionnelle provoque un élargissement des pics obtenus (002, 211, 200 et 202) lorsqu'on la compare avec de la poudre d'émail, obtenue par meulage à l'aide de billes. L'élargissement des raies n'est pas observé lorqu'un monocristal d'hydroxylapatite est meulé à l'aide d'un diamant fin. En général, l'élargissement est moins important, lorsque le meulage est effectué à l'aide de turbines dentaires. L'importance du meulage dépend de façon variable d'un ou plusieurs des facteurs suivants: rugosité des instruments coupants, vitesse de meulage, direction de meulage, et la présence ou l'absence d'eau. Le meulage prolongé par billes de l'émail provoque aussi un élargissement dans les mêmes conditions, cependant, l'os n'est pas endommagé. Ces résultats indiquent que l'émail est plus sensible que l'hydroxylapatite et l'os. L'élargissement de raies peut être dû soit à une déformation de la maille cristalline, soit à une diminution de taille des cristaux.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Es wurde eine Untersuchung durchgeführt, um den Einfluß der Probenvorbereitung (Zerreibungsmethode) auf die Breite des Linienprofil-Querschnittes von Zahnschmelz zu bestimmen. Gewinnung von Zahnschmelz mit den verschiedenen Schneidinstrumenten einer konventionellen Bohrmaschine verursachte eine Verbreiterung aller untersuchten Peaks (002, 211, 200 und 202) im Vergleich zum gleichen Schmelz, der mit dem Rosenbohrer zerrieben wurde. Eine Verbreiterung der Linie konnte nicht beobachtet werden, wenn ein einzelner Kristall von Hydroxyapatit mit einem ganz feinen Diamanten zerrieben wurde. Im allgemeinen war die Verbreiterung weniger ausgesprochen, wenn die hochtourige Bohrtechnik zur Anwendung kam. Das Ausmaß der Verbreiterung, das durch Zahnbohrer verursacht wurde, war abhängig von einem oder mehreren der folgenden Faktoren: Rauheit des Schneidinstrumentes, Zerreibungsgeschwindigkeit, Zerreibungsrichtung und das Vorhandensein oder Fehlen von Wasser. Verlängerte Zerreibung von Schmelz mit dem Rosenbohrer verursachte ebenfalls eine Verbreiterung. Unter identischen Bedingungen blieb der ausgeglühte Knochen jedoch unversehrt. Diese Beobachtungen zeigen, daß Schmelz für Zerreibungsschäden anfälliger ist, als Hydroxyapatitkristalle oder ausgeglühter Knochen. Die eigentliche Ursache der Linienverbreiterung kann entweder eine Schädigung infolge Distortion des Gitters oder eino Reduktion der Größe der individuellen Kristalle sein.
    Notes: Abstract A study was conducted to determine the effect of sample preparation (grinding method) upon breadth of the diffraction profile of enamel. Collecting enamel by grinding with various cuttin tools in the low-speed dental handpiece caused broadening of all peaks (002, 211, 300 and 202) examined, compared to ball, ground, counter-part enamel. Line broadening was not observed when a single crystal of mineral hydroxyapatite was ground with a very fine diamond. In general, broadening was less pronounced with the high-speed air turbine technique. The amount of broadening caused by dental burs depended upon one or more of the following factors: coarseness of cutting instrument, grinding speed, grinding direction, and the presence or absence of water. Prolonged ball grinding of enamel also caused broadening; under identical conditions, however, annealed bone remained undamaged. These findings indicate that enamel is more sensitive to grinding damage than the mineral hydroxyapatite crystal or annealed bone. The actual cause of line broadening may be either strain due to lattice distortions or a reduction in size of individual crystallites.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'activité des cellules osseuses et la composition du fémur de pondeuses furent examinées pendant sept jours de déficience calcique (diète contenant 0,13% de calcium) et sept jours de réplétion (diète contenant 3,2% de calcium). Du point de vue histologique, seul l'os cortical donnait des signes nets de résorption et d'activité ostéoclastique. Le nombre d'ostéoclastes dans l'os médullaire différait peu des valuers témoin pendant les périodes de déficience et de réplétion subséquente, sauf pour une augmentation significative au premier jour de déplétion. L'effect histologique le plus important dans l'os médullaire était une augmentation marquée en nombre d'ostéoblastes aux troisième, cinquième, et un peu moins au septième jours de déplétion. Le nombre d'ostéoblastes était en corrélation positive avec la teneur de l'os médullaire en ostéoide et négative avec son degré de calcification. L'activité de l'os médullaire en phosphatase alcaline augmentait avec la longueur de la déficience calcique. Un jour après le retour des pondeuses à une diète contenant 3,2% de calcium, la calcification de l'os médullaire avait augmenté de façon significative, le nombre d'ostéoblastes avait diminué au niveau ou au-dessous du niveau de contrôle et l'activité de la phosphatase alcaline avait baissé considérablement. L'importance de ces résultats est discutée par rapport au controle des populations des cellules dan l'os et au rôle de l'os médullaire.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Die Zahl der Knochenzellen und die Zusammensetzung des Femurs von Legehennen wurden während einer siebentägigen Calciumentzugsperiode (Calciumgehalt des Futters 0,13%) und einer siebentägigen Ersatzperiode (Calciumgehalt des Futters 3,2%) untersucht. Histologisch zeigte nur die Cortex eindeutige Knochenresorption und osteoklastische Aktivität. Abgesehen von einer signifikanten Zunahme am 1. Tag des Calciumentzuges, variierte die Zahl der Osteoklasten im Markknochen sowohl während der Entzugs- als auch während der nachfolgenden Ersatzperiode wenig. Die wichtigste histologische Änderung im Markknochen bestand in einer starken Zunahme in der Zahl der Osteoblasten am 3., 5. und etwas weniger am 7. Tag der Entzugsperiode. Die Zahl der Osteoblasten zeigte eine positive Korrelation mit dem Osteoidgehalt des Markknochens und eine negative mit dem Grade seiner Verkalkung. Die Aktivität der alkalischen Phosphatase im Markknochen war desto größer je länger den Hennen die calciumarme Ration verfüttert worden war. Die Wiederverabreichung der Ration, welche 3,2% Calcium enthielt, verursachte innerhalb eines Tages eine signifikante Zunahme in der Verkalkung des Markknochens, ein Absinken der Osteoblastzahl auf die Kontrollwerte oder unter sie und eine drastische Verringerung der alkalischen Phosphataseaktivität. Die Bedeutung dieser Ergebnisse in bezug auf die Kontrolle des Knochenzellenbestandes und auf die Funktion des Markknochens wird diskutiert.
    Notes: Abstract Bone cell activity and the composition of the femur of laying hens were studied during 7 days of calcium depletion on a 0.13% calcium diet and 7 days of calcium repletion on a 3.2% calcium diet. Histologically, only cortical bone showed clear signs of bone resorption and osteoclastic activity during the depletion period. The number of osteoclasts in medullary bone varied little from control values throughout both calcium depletion and repletion, except for a significant increase on the first day of depletion. The major histologicalchange in medullary bone was a marked increase in the number of osteoblasts on the third, fifth and, to a lesser extent, seventh, day of depletion. The number of osteoblasts in medullary bone was positively correlated with its osteoid content and negatively correlated with its degree of calcification. Alkaline phosphatase activity of medullary bone increased with the time the hens had been on the calcium-deficient diet. Returning the hens to the 3.2% calcium ration caused, within one day, a significant increase in medullary bone calcification, a decrease of osteoblast numbers to, or below, control levels, and a drastic reduction in alkaline phosphatase activity of medullary bone. The significance of these findings in relation to the control of bone cell populations and the functions of medullary bone is discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des poules ont été nourries avec une alimentation riche en strontium stable. Des concentrations de strontium de 3000 p.p. m. à 50000 p.p.m. montre une augmentation nette en strontium du tibia, alors que le contenu en calcium n'est pas modifié. Les concentrations en calcium sérique diminue, lorsque le strontium alimentaire augmente. Le calcium des coquilles d'oeufs diminue progressivement avec l'augmentation du strontium alimentaire, alors que le contenu en strontium des coquilles présente une augmentation correspondante. Des analyses de diffraction par rayons X des os et des coquilles ne permettent pas de déterminer sous quelle forme le strontium est déposé.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Die Resultate einer Verfütterung von hohen stabilen Strontiumdosen an Hühnern werden erläutert. Strontiumzusätze zur Nahrung in der Höhe von 3000–50000 p.p.m. führten zu einer signifikanten Zunahme des Strontiumgehaltes der Tibia und verursachten keine wesentlichen Änderungen des Calciumgehaltes. Die Calciumkonzentration im Plasma verminderte sich, wenn der Nahrung ansteigende Strontiummengen zugegeben wurden. Mit zunehmendem Strontiumzusatz zur Nahrung zeigte der Calciumgehalt der Eischale eine fortlaufende Abnahme, während sich der Strontiumgehalt entsprechend erhöhte. Durch Röntgendiffraktionsanalysen der stark Strontium-haltigen Knochen und Eischalen konnte nicht festgestellt werden, in welcher Form das Strontium abgelagert wurde.
    Notes: Abstract The results of feeding high dietary levels of stable strontium to hens are reported. Dietary levels of strontium from 3,000 p.p.m. to 50,000 p.p.m. showed a significant increase in strontium content of the tibia bone and essentially no change in the calcium content. Plasma calcium concentration was shown to decrease with increasing dietary strontium treatment. Egg shell calcium showed a progressive decrease with increasing dietary strontium treatment, whereas the strontium content has a corresponding increase. X-ray diffraction analyses of bones and shells containing large amounts of strontium were unsuccessful in evaluating the from in which strontium was deposited.

La détermination de la radioactivité du calcium et de l'acide asorbique a été faite ensuite dans des portions du même échantillon. Du Triton a servi pour le scintillant liquide dans le compteur de scintillation liquide. Un procédé de détermination des deux isotopes dans le meme echantillon a été décrit.

    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Eine Methode ist beschrieben, die die quantitative und radioaktive Bestimmung von45Ca und L-[-L14C] Ascorbinsäure in Knochen von Tieren, denen die beiden Isotopen verabreicht worden sind, erlaubt. Calcium und Ascorbinsäure werden quantitativ mit 6% Trichloressigsäure ausgezogen, wobei die Ascorbinsäure erhalten bleibt. Quantitative Analysen für Calcium und Ascorbinsäure werden nach bekannten Methoden in einem Teil des Extraktes bestimmt und die Bestimmung der Radioaktivität in einem anderen Anteil mit Hilfe eines Flüssigkeits-Szintillations-Zählers durchgeführt. Dem flüssigen Szintillanten wird Triton zugesetzt. Diese Versuchsanordnung ermöglicht außerdem die gleichzeitige Bestimmung der beiden Isotopen im Knochen-Extrakt. Die Methode wurde sorgfältig auf ihre Verwendbarkeit ausgewertet.
    Notes: Abstract Methods were developed for the determination of45Ca plus L-[1-14C] asorbic acid in bones of animals following administration of both isotopes. Asorbic acid and calcium were extracted quantitatively with 6% trichloracetic acid from fresh bone under such mild conditions that asorbic acid was not destroyed. The chemical determinations of calcium and ascorbic acid according to standard procedures were performed in aliquots of the same extract. The determination of the radioactivity of calcium and ascorbic acid were then carried out in aliquots of the same extract. A Triton-containing liquid scintillation fluid was employed for the radioassay of45Ca and L-[1-14C] ascorbic acid in the liquid scintillation spectrometer. A procedure allowing the determination of both isotopes in the same extract is described. A number of criteria were applied to each step, in order to determine the validity and limitations of the procedure.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Une méthode quantitativein vitro est utilisée pour étudier l'efficacité relative des préparations de calcitonine, provenant de diverses espèces. La méthode est basée sur le fait que la calcitonine inhibe de façon nette la libération de45Ca de moitiés de calottes craniennes de souris, âgées de 6 jours, ayant été marquées auparavant; cet effect est lié à la suppression de la résorption endogène, qui se déroule, lorsque les os sont explantés et qui se continuein vitro en l'absence de calcitonine. Des différences nettes de l'effect d'inhibition des préparations de calcitonine ont été trouvées, qu'elles proviennent de corps ultimobranchiaux ou de thyroides de mammifères. La calcitonine humaine et la calcitonine porcine, standard A, se comportent de façon identique et sont environ dix fois plus actifs que la calcitonine porcinek standard B, en se basant sur les critéres unitaires utilisés au cours de cette étude chez le rat. Les calcitonines de corps ultimobranchiaux sont plus efficaces à doses faibles, pendant des périodes plus longues, que les préparations thyroidiennes et elles sont au moins dix fois plus efficaces que la calcitonine porcine standard A et cent fois plus actives que la calcitonine porcine standard B. Les explants traités par la calcitonine libère l'isotope dans le milieu d'une manière identique à celle de l'os mort, tant que la calcitonine reste active: pour la calcitonine de saumon, on observe pendant 20 heures un échange d'isotope entre l'os vivant, traité avec ce produit et le calcium du milieu, ainsi que cela se produit pour des fragments d'os congelé. Ces résultats sont utiles pour des études quantitatives, devant déterminer le mode d'action d'autres produits influençant la résorption et l'apposition osseuse. L'adjonction de calcitonine permet, en effet, de mesurer l'échange d'isotope libéré de l'os, ainsi traité à tous les stades, sans tuer les tissus ou sans avoir recours à des inhibiteurs spécifiques du métabolisme.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Ein quantitativerin vitro-Versuch wurde angewandt, um die relative Wirksamkeit von Calcitonin-Präparaten aus verschiedenen Spezies zu untersuchen. Der Versuch beruht auf der Feststellung, daß Calcitonin einen ausgeprägten Hemmeffekt auf die Freisetzung von45Ca aus markierten Calvarien-Hälften von 6tägigen Mäusen hat. Dieser Effekt kommt wegen der Unterdrückung der endogenen Resorption zustande, die im Moment der Knochenexplantation im Gange ist, undin vitrobei Abwesenheit von Calcitonin weiter fortschreitet. Auffallende Unterschiede des Hemmeffektes konnten bei Calcitonin-Präparaten sowohl von Ultimobranchialkörpern als auch von Säuger-Thyreoideae festgestellt werden. Menschliches Calcitonin sowie Standard A Schweine-Calcitonin verhalten sich gleich und sind ungefähr 10mal wirksamer als Standard B Schweine-Calcitonin, ausgedrückt in Einheiten bezogen auf den Rattenversuch. Die von Ultimobranchialkörpern stammenden Calcitonin-Präparate sind wirksamer in niedrigerer Dosierung und während einer längeren Zeitspanne als die Thyreoidea-Präparate. Sie wirken zudem mindestens 10mal stärker als Standard A Schweine-Calcitonin und 100mal stärker als Standard B Schweine-Calcitonin. Explantate, welche mit Calcitonin behandelt wurden, geben das Isotop auf die gleiche Weise wie totes Knochengewebe in das Medium ab, solange das Calcitonin wirksam ist. Für Calcitonin vom Lachs besteht eine Zeitpsanne von 20 Std, während welcher die lebenden, mit diesem Präparat behandelten Knochen das Isotop mit dem Calcium des Medium austauschen, in gleicher Weise wie durch Einfrieren und Auftauen getöteten Knochens. Diese Methode wird vermutlich sehr nützlich sein für quantitative Untersuchungen über den Aktionsmodus anderer Stoffe, welche Knochenresorption und-wachstum beeinflussen, da der Calcitonin-Zusatz es ermöglicht, die Austauschkomponente des aus dem behandelten Knochen freigesetzten Isotopes jederzeit zu messen, ohne daß dabei Gewebe zerstört oder weniger spezifische Inhibitoren des Metabolismus herangezogen werden müssen.
    Notes: Abstract Anin vitro method has been used to investigate the relative effectiveness of calcitonin preparations from different species. It is based on the finding that calcitonin has a marked inhibitory effect on the release of45Ca from prelabelled half-calvariae from 6-day-old mice; this effect is due to the suppression of the endogeneous resorption that is in progress when the bones are explanted, and which continuesin vitro in the absence of calcitonin. Striking differences have been found in the inhibitory effect of calcitonin preparations from either ultimobranchial bodies or from mammalian thyroids. Human calcitonin and porcine standard A calcitonin behave similarly and are about ten times more potent than porcine standard B calcitonin in terms of units based on the rat assay. The calcitonins of ultimobranchial origin are more effective at lower doses for a longer period of time than the thyroid preparations, and are at least ten times more potent than porcine standard A calcitonin or 100 times more potent than porcine standard B. Explants treated with calcitonin release isotope into the medium in a similar manner to that of dead bones, as long as the calcitonin remains effective; for salmon calcitonin there is a twenty-hour period in which the release of isotope from living bones treated with this preparation exchange isotope with the calcium in the medium like frozen-thawed bone. This finding should be very useful in quantitative studies on the mode of action of other compounds that influence bone resorption and accretion, since the addition of calcitonin will enable the exchange component of the isotope released from treated bones, to be measured at any stage without killing the tissue or resorting to less specific inhibitors of metabolism.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'os médullaire des poules au moment de la ponte ainsi que l'os néoformé de coqs soumis à des substances oestrogéniques, ont été examinés par les méthodes de l'histologie, de l'histochimie, de la microradiographie et de l'alpharadiographie afin de comparer la résorption naturelle à celle produite par la parathormone. Chez les pondeuses, la résorption a été provoquée par la formation de la coquille; chez les coqs, elle s'est produite à la suite de la diminution du taux des oestrogènes. La résorption naturelle de l'os médullaire a été marquée par un accroissement de la basophilie, de l'azurophilie et de la metachromasie, par la diminution graduelle de la densité organique et minérale. Ces modifications ont été observées d'abord dans la portion distale de l'os médullaire; elles se sont progressivement propagées à la région sous corticale. L'extrait parathyroidien semble avoir favorisé tous ces phénomènes, en stimulant l'ostéolyse ostéocytaire et l'ostéoclasie. Il ne nous a pas été possible cependant de nous rendre compte si les ostéoclastes ne se sont attaqués qu'aux portions des travées déja modifiées par l'ostéolyse. Ces résultats concordent avec l'idée que la résorption normale de l'os médullaire de la poule au temps où la coquille de l'oeuf se dépose, est déclanchée par la parathormone. Il en est de même chez le coq à la suite du retrait des oestrogènes.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Die Substantia spongiosa der Femora von Legehennen und von Hähnen die mit Östrogen behandelt waren, wurde während spontaner und künstlicher, mit Extrakten von Epithelkörperchen induzierter, Resorption einer histologischen, histochemischen, alpharadiographischen und mikroröntgenographische Untersuchung unterworfen. Die natürliche Resorption wurde bei den Hennen durch die Eischalenproduktion und bei den Hähnen durch Östrogenentzug hervorgerufen. Die natürliche Resorption war durch erhöhte Basophilie, Azurphilie und Metachromasie, sowohl als auch durch verminderter alpharadiographischer und mikroröntgenographischer Dichte der Trabeculae der Substantia spongiosa charakterisiert. Diese Veränderungen wurden zuerst in den zentralen, dem Cavum medullare nächstgelegenen, Teilen der Spongiosa wahrgenommen. Später waren auch die peripheren Teile, mit geringerer Osteocytenkonzentration, betroffen. Diese Veränderungen konnten durch Gaben von Epithelkörperchenextrakten verstärkt werden. Die Resorption der Spongiosa wird durch osteocytische Osteolyse und Osteoklasie bewirkt. Es konnte aber nicht entschieden werden ob diese beiden Prozesse gleichzeitig stattfinden, oder ob die Osteoklasten die Trabeculae erst angreifen, nachdem sie bereits teilweise durch Osteolyse abgebaut worden sind. Diese Resultate stimmen mit der Hypothese überein, daß die natürliche Resorption von Spongiosa während der Eischalenproduktion bei Hennen und nach Entzug von Östrogen bei Hähnen, durch Epithelkörperchenhormonen bedingt ist.
    Notes: Abstract The medullary bone in the femora of laying hens and of oestrogen-treated cocks has been examined by histological, histochemical, alpharadiographic and microroentgenographic techniques while undergoing both natural resorption and resorption induced by injection of parathyroid extract. In the hens, natural resorption was brought about by egg-shell formation and in the cocks by withdrawal of oestrogen. Natural resorption was accompained by increasing basophilia, azurophilia and metachromasia and by decreasing alpharadiographic and microradiographic density of the trabeculae of the medullary bone. These changes were observed initially in the central region (towards the marrow cavity) and subsequently in the peripheral regions also, where the number of osteocytes per unit area of bone was less. Parathyroid extract enhanced all these effects. It appears that resorption of medullary bone was brought about by osteocytic osteolysis and by osteoclasis, but it was not possible to determine whether both processes occurred concurrently or whether the osteoclasts attacked the trabeculae only after they had been partially degraded by osteolysis. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that the natural resorption of medullary bone during egg-shell formation in hens and following the withdrawal of oestrogen in cocks is induced by parathyroid hormone.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Divers agents chimiques, colorés, fluorescents et se localisant dans les os, à savoir la tétracycline, l'alazazine rouge S et le DCAF, ont été administré en série à des rats sevrés et on a mesuré le taux de la formation et de la résorption osseuse sur les coupes transversales du tiers supérieur de la diaphyse. Ici la formation osseuse périostale s'effectue progressivement avec peu de changement endostéal. Avec alimentation carnée, la croissance des rats est significativement restreinte pendant la première semaine, mais se rétablit ensuite. Bien qu'il y ait croissance des os, ceux-ci ne se minéralisent pas normalement et ils deviennent rapidement fragiles et amincis. La résorption osseuse est lente d'abord, puis s'accelère pendant 2–3 semaines pour atteindre un taux de 15μ par jour, après quoi elle se ralentit de nouveau. Bien que le taux de formation osseuse soit réduit, en comparaison avec celui des os normaux, la résorption s'effectue environ deux à trois fois plus rapidement que la croissance osseuse. Des études microradiographiques sur des rats à régime carné mais carencés en calcium ont permis la constatation suivante: tandis que la résorption s'effectue à la marge endostéale et que la formation osseuse a lieu sur l'aspect périostéal, la matière osseuse nouvellement formée est moins calcifiéc que chez les témoins.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Einige farbige, fluoreszierende, knochensuchende Chemikalien, z. B. Tetracyclin, Alazarin-Rot S und CDAF, wurden nacheinander an entwöhnten Ratten verabreicht, worauf man die Knochenbildungs- und Knochenresorptionswerte an hartgeschliffenen Schnitten des oberen Drittels der Diaphyse gemessen hat. Hier findet fortschreitend periostale Knochenbildung statt, mit geringer Veränderung des Endosteums. Bei Fleischdiät wird das Körperwachstum während der ersten Woche erheblich beschränkt; danach aber normalisiert es sich wieder. Obwohl die Knochen noch wachsen, zeigen sie keine normale Mineralisierung und werden schnell zerbrechlich und dünn. Die Knochenresorption ist anfangs langsam, dann beschleunigt sie sich während einer Zeitspanne von 2–3 Wochen bis auf 15 μ pro Tag, um sich dann wieder zu verlangsamen. Während die Knochenbildungsgeschwindigkeit relativ zum Normalwert heruntergesetzt wird, verläuft die Resorption ungefähr 2–3mal so schnell wie die Knochenbildung. Mikroradiographische Untersuchungen an mit Fleisch ernährten Ca-armen Ratten haben bestätigt, daß während die Resorption am Endosteumrande stattfindet und sich die Knochenbildung an der Periostenfläche fortsetzt, die neugebildete Knochensubstanz weniger kalzifiziert ist, als die der Kontrolltiere.
    Notes: Abstract Different coloured, fluorescent bone-seeking chemicals, viz., tetracycline, Alizarin Red S, and DCAF, have been administered sequentially to weanling rats and the rate of formation and resorption of bone measured from hard-ground cross sections of the upper third of the diaphysis of the femur. On a meat diet, bodily growth is significantly restricted for the first week and then recovery occurs. While bones grow they fail to mineralize normally and rapidly become fragile and rarefied. Resorption of bone is at first slow, then accelerates for a period of 2–3 weeks to about 15μ/day and then slows again. While the rate of bone formation is reduced relative to normal bone, resorption proceeds at approximately two to three times the rate of bone growth. Microradiographic studies confirm tht while resorption occurs on the endosteal margin and formation proceeds on the periosteal aspect of meat fed Ca-deficient rats, new bone is less calcified than that in control animals.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Les modes d'utilisation de glucose, le contenu de calcium et d'hydroxyproline et la densité cellulaire du perioste de les os frontaux d'embryons de poulet de 12 et 13 jours de developpement, cultivés sur coagulum de plasma, se presentant différenment à chaque âge. Cultivés avec sulfate de déhydroèpiandrostérone en concentration 1 mM, les frontaux de 12 jours montrent un synthese augmentée du matrice osseuse, celle de 13 jours se calcifient à une vélocité significativement plus grande que celle des os contôles. Le degré de calcification au quatrième jour de culture measuré par la relation calcium/hydroxyproline, suit un fonction lineáire avec le logarithme des doses de sulfate de dehydroepiandrostérone employées (0.5, 1,0 et 2,0 mM). Les renseignements obtenus indiquent que les frontaux de 13 jours, cultivés “in vitro” constituent modeles experimentaux appropriés pour étudier l'effet des androgénes sur le tissue osseux.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Stirnbeine von Hühnerembryonen an ihrem 12. und 13. Entwicklungstag entnommen und in vitro kultiviert zeigen verschiedene Arten der Glucoseverwertung der Periostzellendichte, des Calcium- und Hydroxyprolingehaltes. Wird Dehydroepiandrosteronsulfat dem Medium in einer 1 mM-Konzentration zugegeben, so beteiligen sich die 12tägigen Stirnbeine vorwiegend an der Knochengewebesynthese, während die 13tägigen signifikant stärker verkalken als die Kontrollen. Gemessen an der Calcium/hydroxyprolin Ratio bildet die Verkalkung der 13tägigen Stirnbeine eine lineare Funktion mit den Logarithmen der verwendeten Dosen von Dehydroepiandrosteronsulfat (0,5, 1,0 und 2,0 mM). Das in vitro kultivierte 13tägige Stirnbein schein ein geeignetes Experimentiermodell zur Studie der Dehydroepiandrosteronsulfatwirkung auf das Knochengewebe zu sein, weil es das grundlegende Phänomen (erhöhte Verkalkung) wiedergibt, welches man auch bei mit Androgenen behandelten Menschen und Tieren beobachtet.
    Notes: Abstract Chick embryo frontal bones at 12 and 13 days of development cultivatedin vitro exhibit different patterns of glucose utilization, periosteal cellular density and calcium and hydroxyproline content. When dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate is added to the medium at a concentration 1 mM, 12-day frontals engage primarily in osteoid tissue synthesis while 13-day frontals calcify at a significantly greater rate than controls. Measured with the ratio calcium/hydroxyproline, the calcification of 13-day frontals follows a linear function with the logarithm of the doses of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate employed (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mM). The 13-day frontal bone cultivatedin vitro seems to be an adequate experimental model for the study of the effects of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate on bone tissue because it reproduces the basic phenomenon (increased calcification) observed in man and animals treated with androgens.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Moyennant und systèmein vitro dont la composition liquide fut variée nous avons pu faire grandir ou dissoudre des cristaux osseux. Ces changements qui se manifestent par des changements de la biréfrigence extrinsique du tissu osseux, ont été suivis à l'aide du microscope polarisant et aussi du microscope électronique. De même l'entrée de45Ca dans les cristaux a été mesurée dans certains cas. Les cristaux osseux sont hétérogènes quant à leur solubilité. Le produit de solubilité du minéral osseux, exprimé par la relationp [Ca]+p[P], est de 6.51±0.07 (σ) mesuré par la microscopie polarisante à l'instant où les changements furent les plus petits. Ce chiffre s'accorde avec les résultats des autres chercheurs qui ont mesuré la solubilité de la poudre osseuse par des autres méthodes. La solubilité des cristaux dans notre système varie inversement avec les concentrations des ions hydroxyliques ou fluors, mais varie directement avec la concentration des ions citriques.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Ein Systemin vitro ermöglichte es durch Veränderung der Zusammensetzung der umgebenden Lösung das Wachstum und die Auflösung von Knochenkristallen herbeizuführen. Die hervorgebrachten Veränderungen konnten dank der doppelbrechenden Eigenschaften des Knochengewebes mit dem Polarisationsmikroskop festgestellt werden. Diese Beobachtungen wurden durch Untersuchungen am Elektronenmikroskop und Bestimmungen der45Ca-Aufnahme gestützt. Die Knochenkristalle erwiesen sich als heterogen in bezug auf ihre Löslichkeit. Wenn die hervorgerufene Kristallveränderung im Polarisationsmikroskop minimal war, so entsprach das Gesamtlöslichkeitsprodukt des Knochenminerals, ausgedrückt als p[Ca]+p[P] 6,51±0,07 (S.D.). Diese Resultate bestätigten die Befunde anderer Forscher, welche die Knochenpulverlöslichkeit mittels konventioneller Methoden bestimmten. Die Löslichkeit der Kristalle bei diesem Systemin vitro variierte entgegengesetzt zur Hydroxyl- und Fluoridionenkonzentration, aber im gleichen Sinne wie die Citrationenkonzentration.
    Notes: Abstract Anin vitro system was used to induce growth and dissolution of bone crystals by manipulating the composition of their fluid environment. The induced changes could be detected with the polarizing microscope because of the extrinsic birefringence of the bone tissue. Supporting observations were made with the electron microscope and by determining45Ca uptake. The bone crystals were found to be heterogeneous with regard to their solubility. When induced crystal changes were minimal by polarization microscopy the overall solubility product of the bone mineral expressed asp [Ca]+p[P] was 6.51±0.07 (S.D.). This result corroborated the findings of other investigators who determined bone powder solubility by conventional methods. Solubility of the crystals in thein vitro system varied inversely with hydroxyl ion and fluoride ion concentration, but directly with citrate ion concentration.

    Notes: Summary Mice were stained with pulverized charcoal and the resulting grooming behaviour observed. From 119 controls, the typical patterns indicated a late cleaning of the tail, the sacrum and the region between the ears. The following substances were tested: Imipramine, Desipramine, Trimeprimine, Amitriptyline, Nortriptyline, Chlordiazepoxide, Iproniazide, d-Amphetamine, Chlorpromazine, Haloperidol, Acetylsalicylic acid, Metronidazole. Of these Amitriptyline, Chlorpromazine, Haloperidol and Metronidazole were effective in doses less than 1/10 of LD 5.

    Notes: Summary The amphetamine analog, 2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylamphetamine (DOM), was studied in 18 volunteer subjects given single doses ranging from 2 to 14 mg. The former was a threshold dose, with definite psychotomimetic effects being evident from doses over 5 mg. The clinical syndrome greatly resembled that of the LSD-mescaline-psilocybin series of drugs, including its time-course. Somewhat more sedation was produced by DOM than would have been expected from the others, despite concomitant evidence of peripheral sympathetic stimulation. Just as with the other drugs, DOM increased plasma free fatty acids, decreased phosphorus and creatinine clearance, decreased circulating eosinophils and had little effect on catecholamine excretion. Performance of psychometric tests was impaired. Chlorpromazine treatment concurrently was found to attenuate the reaction. Tolerance rapidly developed when the drug was used chronically by patients.

    Notes: Summary 1. The psychopharmacological activity of Δ 1-tetrahydrocannabinol, (I); Δ 1(6)-tetrahydrocannabinol (4′ hexyl), (II); Δ 1(6)-tetrahydrocannabinol, (III); 1-ethoxyhexahydrocannabinol, (IV); 8-ethoxy-iso-hexahydrocannabinol, (V); Δ 1(6)-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid Me ester, Isomer I, (VI); Δ 1(6)-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid Me ester, Isomer II, (VII); cannabigerol, (VIII); Δ 1(6)-tetrahydrocannabinol (3′ hexyl), (IX); cannabichromene, (X); has been examined in a variety of animal species. 2. Compounds (I) and (III) caused severe motor disturbances and a stuporous state in dogs and ptosis, “tameness” and peculiar postural changes in monkeys. In the latter animal, compound (II) elicited similar effects. 3. Compounds (I) and (III) after intraperitoneal but not subcutaneous administration, suppressed the gerbil digging activity; reduced the rat conditioned avoidance response and induced a cataleptoid reaction in mice, rats and gerbils. In addition, compound (I) reduced the performance of mice on the rotating-rod. Both compounds, administered subcutaneously, induced a measurable ataxic gait in rats. 4. Amphetamine reversed the behavioural changes elicited by compounds (I) and (III) in monkeys, as well as the cataleptoid reaction in rats. 5. None of the other compounds provoked observable changes in any of the species studied. 6. It is suggested that Rhesus monkeys might serve as a suitable model for assessing the psychopharmacological activity of active cannabinoids.

    Notes: Summary Skin conductance changes during periods of stress induced by hypercapnia were studied during a cycle of addiction to morphine. Conductance changes were found to be dose dependent in both tolerant and non-tolerant states. The effects of morphine on skin conductance changes induced by hypercapnia were similar to those effects previously observed on changes induced by electric shock.

    Notes: Summary Two operant procedures were used for training albino rats to make differential responses on the basis of their drug or nondrug condition. In the Conflict procedure, every fifth lever press was rewarded by a food pellet in one condition (drug for half the animals, saline for the other half) and was punished by electric shock in the other condition. For 6 animals the drug condition was ethyl alcohol (1200 mg/kg of a 10% v/v solution in isotonic saline, injected i.p. 5 min before the start of the session); for 4 animals the drug condition was atropine sulfate (10 mg/kg in 1 ml/kg saline injected i.p. 30 min before the start of the session). In the Choice procedure, food reward was obtained by the first press on one of two levers at a variable time interval, averaging one minute, after the prior food reward. The rewarded lever depended on the animal's drug or saline condition (alcohol for 7 animals, atropine for 5 animals, administered as in the Conflict procedure); the same right-hand or left left-hand lever was rewarded in the drug condition for half the animals and in the saline condition for the other half. The response associated with 1200 mg/kg alcohol was generally elicited in tests with sufficiently high doses of pentobarbital sodium (10–20 mg/kg), chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride (10–15 mg/kg) and chloral hydrate (90–120 mg/kg, administered orally). Lower doses of these compounds, and of alcohol, were perceived as less similar to the alcohol and therefore more similar to the saline condition. Substantial doses of chlorpromazine hydrochloride (2 mg/kg) and d-amphetamine sulfate (1 mg/kg) also were perceived as similar to the saline condition. The response associated with a centrally acting anticholinergic (10 mg/kg atropine) was generally elicited in tests with several doses of scopolamine hydrobromide (0.06 to 1.0 mg/kg) and of atropine (2.5–5.0 mg/kg). The saline response was elicited by a lower dose of scopolamine (0.03 mg/kg) and by a peripherally-acting anticholinergic, atropine methyl bromide, at a dose (5 mg/kg) equimolar with 10 mg/kg atropine sulfate. The same results, including closely similar ED50 doses, were generally found with the Conflict and Choice procedures, despite the differences between them in the motivational basis for the differential drug and nondrug responses. The similarities and dissimilarities among these compounds in perceived stimulus characteristics also correspond closely with those reported by Overton (1966) with a locomotor shock-escape procedure in tests which were generally limited to a single high dose of each drug.

    Notes: Summary The influence of lithium on aggressive behavior was studied in Siamese fighting fish, mice and golden hamsters. The fish stopped fighting when exposed to concentrations of 10 to 30 meq/l LiCl in the surrounding water. Also in mice and hamsters which ingested LiCl with the drinking fluid lithium abolished intraspecific aggression. Measurements of plasma and brain lithium levels revealed astonishing individual differences in the concentrations which were necessary for the antiaggressive effect. In all species normal aggressive behavior reappeared after lithium treatment was discontinued.

    Notes: Summary Seven psychic energizers have been quantitatively evaluated for their antidepressant and tranquillizing activity using antagonism of reserpine induced emesis and apomorphine induced pecking in pigeons as test procedures for the two activities respectively. Pheniprazine and deanol possess anti-reserpine activity only whereas imipramine, desmethylimipramine, amitriptyline, opipramol and orphenadrine possess both anti-reserpine as well as anti-apomorphine activity. It is suggested that the two tests form a simple and reliable combination for evaluating potential antidepressants.

    Notes: Summary Six manic patients were studied in an open sequential drug trial of placebo and the serotonin antagonist methysergide; lithium was then substituted double-blind. No dramatic change occurred in individual manic item scores or in mean daily mania ratings after 48 hours or seven days of methysergide, although several of the patients showed slight trends toward improvement. However, after a mean duration of 10.3 days of lithium treatment, all manic item scores improved dramatically and significantly, so that complete clinical remission was evident in all patients. In view of the discrepancy between these essentially negative findings and several recent positive reports on the efficacy of methysergide in the treatment of mania, the authors feel that the indolealkylamine hypothesis of affective disorders should be further investigated.

    Notes: Summary The effect of Psilocybin on the behavior of the baboon Papiopapio has been studied. Animal watchfulness, as estimated from the E.E.G., is enhanced within the first five minutes after injection and then is not further modified. Psilocybin induces a decrease of spontaneous motility. Conversely, the frequency of eye movements is considerably increased. This pattern might be explained by alterations of visual perception.

    Notes: Summary Six patients with persistent anxiety symptoms were used in a preliminary assessment of a new anti-anxiety compound-Doxepin (Sinequan) with placebo. The factorial design is discussed as a potentially useful way of conducting a first-stage test of anti-anxiety compounds. Analysis of the results showed that Doxepin at 25 mg t.d.s. and 50 mg t.d.s. was associated with improvement in the patient's self ratings of anxiety symptoms.

    Notes: Summary Amphetamine was administered to a group of rats trained on a nondiscriminated avoidance procedure. An intraperitoneal dose of 2.0 mg/kg caused about a 75% increase in response rate for the three-hour session. Doses of atropine, Tremorine, eserine, and 4-(1-naphthylvinyl)-pyridine (NVP), an inhibitor of the enzyme choline acetylase, which were ineffective in themselves, markedly affected the increase in rate observed after amphetamine. The quarternary amine of NVP was without effect on the amphetamine response. Those agents that decreased cholinergic function, either by blocking the effect of acetylcholine or by preventing its synthesis, augmented the stimulating effect of amphetamine. Cholinergic stimulants, on the other hand, significantly antagonized the behavioral effects of amphetamine.

    Notes: Summary According to our results in 117 subjects, recently taken medications, age and sex must be considered when duration of the Achilles-tendon reflex is used as a clinical test to assess thyroid status. Males have a shorter ATR than females. In older subjects the ATR lasts longer than in those below age 27. Fifty-two psychiatric patients before medication did not differ in ATR duration from 65 controls. However, after 28 patients took chlorpromazine and 24 received trifluoperazine, ATR was prolonged in the chlorpromazine group and shortened in the trifluoperazine group. Neither chlorpromazine concentrate, 1,800 mg, nor trifluoperazine concentrate, 180 mg, given during the first six days, affected ATR, but an additional 6,000 mg of chlorpromazine, or an additional 420 mg of trifluoperazine over the next six days, did significantly alter ATR-duration.

    Notes: Summary Doxepin and diazepam were evaluated for therapeutic effectiveness in a double blind study carried out with 69 primarily anxious neurotic outpatients attending either a municipal hospital clinic or a general practitioner's office. Doxepin produced more clinical improvement than diazepam in several questionnaire clusters measuring depressive symptomatology, but not in clusters measuring anxious symptomatology. According to several outcome criteria, doxepin tended to produce more clinical improvement in general practice than in clinic patients, while diazepam produced either equal improvement in both populations or slightly more improvement in the clinic. Possibly contributing to the present results are low daily dosage of diazepam, differential pharmacological drug effects, population differences in levels of anxiety and depression, and differences in population characteristics, primarily as related to social class.

    Notes: Summary The effects of nicotine on bar-pressing behaviour in the rat are blocked by mecamylamine. The depressant phase of the effect is blocked by atropine, supporting the conclusion that this depression is mediated by released acetylcholine. The quaternary compounds chlorisondamine and atropine methylnitrate also antagonise the behavioural effects of nicotine but the doses required for this are far in excess of those which are effective peripherally, suggesting that the sites of interaction are central.

    Notes: Summary Rats were trained to respond for water rewards on different bars in a Skinner box depending on whether they had previously been injected with nicotine or with saline. No other drug tested could consistently elicit responses on the “nicotine correct” bar. Pre-treatment with mecamylamine abolished the rats' ability to distinguish between nicotine and saline but pretreatment with chlorisondamine did not.

    Notes: Summary Through the retrospective use of the 156 item DWM Card Sort, the experiences from a single intravenous dose of 200 mcg of LSD, 75 mg of methylphenidate (Ritalin) and 75 mg of chlordiazepoxide (Librium) were compared in a population of 99 chronic male alcoholics treated in an “LSD setting” in a double-blind study. Surprisingly, 96 of the 156 items proved significantly different among the 3 groups. LSD was unique in producing Sensory and Perceptual Distortions (including Hallucinations or Illusions), and Mystical, Religious or Paranormal Sensations. However, contrary to expectation, LSD did not uniquely produce the traditional “therapeutic” experience, but appeared to be surpassed in that area by methylphenidate. Both drugs also produced some anxiety, while chlordiazepoxide produced relaxation, and enhanced music appreciation.

    Notes: Summary A method is described with which it is possible to measure locomotor activity and food intake simultaneously in the same rat or other small animal. From a study of a number of psychomotorstimulant drugs and anorectic agents it may be concluded that locomotorstimulation and appetite-suppression are two different effects that may or may not characterize the same drug. Methamphetamine and phenmetrazine are stimulants in doses that do not inhibit food intake. Amphepramon reduced food intake in low doses but acts as a stimulant in higher doses. Chlorphemternine and phenfluramine are anorectic agents that are not stimulants, even in high doses.

    Notes: Summary Four pigeons were trained on a visual discrimination task which required conditional responding along the independent dimensions of form and color. High doses of Cannabis sativa (marihuana) extract and lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), which were equated on the basis of their effectiveness in suppressing responding, increased responding on a color dimension but not on a form dimension. High doses of LSD produced a decrement in discrimination performance while comparable doses of Cannabis did not effect accuracy. Treatment with Bromolysergic acid diethylamide, saline, and pentobarbital did not produce significant changes in performance. Results are discussed in terms of a break-down in stimulus control and central hallucinogenic activity.

    Notes: Summary In sessions of ten runs each, swimming time of rats through a 4 m long water alley was measured. Four doses of nicotine (0.05; 0.1; 0.2; 0.4 mg/kg given intraperitoneally 30 minutes before testing) were tested in sessions with a braking load on the tails of the animals either in all 10 runs of a session, or in every second run, or in none of the 10 runs. Regardless of the swimming condition, nicotine produced a considerable, and at doses of 0.1 mg/kg and over, significant decrease of performance in the first two runs. From the third to the 10th run, the changes caused by nicotine were smaller and differed depending on the swimming conditions. A dose of 0.1 mg nicotine/kg improved performance in the “without-load-sessions” and the “without-load-runs” of the alternating sessions, while both 0.1 and 0.2 mg/kg improved performance of the “with-load-runs” of the alternating sessions. Performance in the “without-load-sessions” and the “without-load-runs” was depressed by 0.4 mg/kg and that in the “with-load-sessions” by 0.2 and 0.4 mg/kg.

    Notes: Summary Sleep physiological patterns were examined following a single oral dose (500 mg) of the hypnotic drug alpha chloralose. The drug increased SW sleep and decreased REM sleep without affecting total sleep time or the amount of stage 2. These changes were accompanied by a shift to slower frequencies and greater EEG synchrony, as well as a decrease in the number of spontaneous arousals in all stages of sleep, and throughout the night of medication. Except for a slight decrease in eye movement density, the drug had no systematic effects on phasic phenomena such as electrodermal or cardio-respiratory fluctuations, nor was there a systematic change in basal heart and breathing rates. On the night following medication a “rebound” increase in percent stage REM was associated with a sharp decrease in SW sleep, and increases in spontaneous arousals and waking time. Such findings suggest that sleep stages are controlled by homeostatic mechanisms whose function is to maintain equilibrium. A comparison of the effects of alpha chloralose with those of the barbiturate secobarbital revealed some striking differences. Although both alpha chloralose and the barbiturate reduced the amount of stage REM and the frequency of brief arousals, the latter compound enhanced EEG fast activity and desynchrony, and suppressed such phasic phenomena as rapid eye movements during stage REM, sigma spindles in stage 2, nonspecific electrodermal responses during SW sleep and cardio-respiratory variability in all sleep stages. For secobarbital, the decrease in percent stage REM was compensated by an increase in stage 2 rather than SW sleep. Several studies in the cat suggest that in subanesthetic doses, alpha chloralose acts primarily on cortical inhibitory processes, causing release of the reticular activating system from inhibitory influences. The results of this study show that moderate doses in man probably act on both cortical and subcortical systems involved in the mediation of SW sleep, REM sleep and arousal.

    Notes: Summary Bar pressing was maintained by food reinforcement of each fiftieth response (FR50 schedule). Rats were tested at 3 levels of food deprivation (60, 80 and 100% of ad libitum body weight) under three drug conditions (0, 0.2 and 0.4 mg of D-amphetamine per rat). Overall response rate was reduced by increasing doses of drug, but not significantly by deprivation, within the range studied. The components of response rate were analysed separately into the starting speed (latency of the first response of each ratio run of 50 responses) and running rate. Drug level affected running rate and first latency of the session, whereas body weight affected only first latency of the session. Only the first latency of the session showed an interaction of drug level and body weight. The lack of interaction raises the question, whether amphetamine is more properly administered as total dose per rat, rather than proportional to body weight.

    Notes: Summary Two grams of NAD were administered orally to ten chronic schizophrenic patients for twenty-one days. Five of the patients were also receiving thioridazine. There was no gross clinical improvement noted in any of the patients despite the fact that related experiments suggested that the NAD was absorbed. In those patients who were not also receiving phenothiazines there was a distinct tendency towards increased hostility, aggressiveness and irritability beginning one week after the initiation of NAD treatment and lasting for nearly two weeks after the NAD was discontinued.

    Notes: Summary The effects of nicotine, amphetamine, chlordiazepoxide and caffeine were studied in rats trained on a VI 2 crf schedule of water reward with all rewards accompanied by electric shock. Responding, partially suppressed by the shock, was restored by chlordiazepoxide and further suppressed by amphetamine. Nicotine resembled amphetamine in its effects on most rats but occasionally increased responding. Caffeine also increased responding in some rats indicating that this property is not always confined to tranquillising drugs.

    Notes: To clarify the deformation mechanism in polyblends of polypropylene with ethylene-propylene rubber having different compositions, simultaneous measurements of the infrared dichroism with stress and strain under a constant rate of strain of 1.64%/min have been carried out. The orientation function of the crystallographic c axis of polypropylene in the blends has been obtained as a function of strain ranging from 0 to 20% and of polypropylene content ranging from 0.3 to 1.0. These results have been compared with the temperature dependences of the dynamic Young's modulus and of the loss modulus, as well as of stress-strain curves for the same blends. The modulus data analyzed by Kerner's equation reveal the occurrence of phase inversion at polypropylene contents higher than about 0.5, and this is supported by the infrared dichroism data. The strong effect of quenching on crystalline structure and mechanical properties of pure polypropylene has also been elucidated.

    Notes: Equipment and methods have been developed which allow photomicrographic determination of the stress-strain properties of the individual craze. Serial cyclic tensile tests on polycarbonate crazes are described. Under stress the typical dry polycarbonate craze thickens solely by straining; no adjacent polymer of normal density is converted to craze material. The craze exhibits a yield stress followed by a recoverable flow to roughly 40-50% strain at 6000-8000 psi. On return to zero stress the craze exhibits creep recovery at a decelerating rate. The yield stress and loss factor of each cycle decrease with increasing initial strain and cycles initiating at 50% strain or more show completely Hookean behavior. Creep recovery results in recovery of yield stress and loss factor also. Craze tensile behavior is suggested to be essentially an extension of the craze formation process. Decrease in elastic modulus and yield stress with increasing strain are rationalized in terms of strain-produced decrease in density and resultant increase in stress concentration factor on the microscopic polymer elements of the craze. Polymer surface tension and the large internal specific surface area of the craze are suggested to be important factors in the large creep recovery rates of the craze.

This method, based on Kolmogorov's forward differential equation, is illustrated by application to two familiar kinetic schemes and is used to derive the distribution of degree of polymerization for free-radical polymerization with diffusion-controlled termination.

    Notes: The effect of birefringence of a polymer film upon its photographic light-scattering pattern is considered for the case of a single, anisotropic, two-dimensional spherulite imbedded in a birefringent matrix. It is shown that for the case of a polarizer and analyzer crossed at +45° and -45° to the analyzer, the scattering pattern is modified in a manner agreeing with experimental observation.

    Notes: Osmotic-pressure, viscosity, and light-scattering measurements have been carried out on dilute solutions of poly-N-vinylcarbazole fractions (4 〈 10-4M 〈 230) in toluene, dioxane, and benzene. The theta temperature for poly-N-vinylcarbazole in toluene solutions has been found to be 37 ± 1°C. The intrinsic viscosity of poly-N-vinylcarbazole in toluene at 37°C is represented by [η]θ = 76.2 × 10-3M̄n0.50. Values of the characteristic ratios (〈L2〉0/M)1/2 and σ = (〈L2〉0/〈L2〉0f)1/2 have been obtained as 633 × 10-11 and 2.85, respectively. It appears that the large σ value is due to the steric repulsion between large side groups.

    Notes: Mechanical relaxation data as a function of temperature (ca. 1 Hz) have been obtained for several samples of isotactic polypropylene crystallized from the melt, which exhibit both α and β forms as well as varying degrees of lamella orientation. The samples ranged in morphology from an unoriented sample showing only the α form to one highly oriented having approximately 90 per cent the β form. Results for the logarithmic decrement Δ and loss modulus G″ are that the low temperature (ca. -75°C) and glass temperature (ca. 0°C) relaxations show little or no sensitivity to orientation in the α form, but that the intensity of the two processes is different in the α form than in the β form for samples of nearly equal overall per cent crystallinity. In both Δ and G″, the low-temperature peak decreased and the glass temperature peak increased in intensity as the fraction of β form crystallinity present increased. Data for the high-temperature relaxation (ca. 80°C) indicate a dependence upon orientation and/or crystal form in addition to a dependence upon per cent crystallinity.

    Notes: The viscometric behavior of linear polycaprolactam has been studied in the absence of the electroviscous effect in aqueous solvents containing 85% and 64.5% formic acid and in trifluoroethanol, as a function of temperature and also under unperturbed conditions. Results are discussed in terms of the existing theories; in particular, the negative temperature coefficient of the intrinsic viscosity arises only from the variation of the expansion coefficient, the molecule in the unperturbed state being a normal random coil. The absence of aggregation and draining effects in the above solvents has been varified.

    Notes: Polymers of poly(N-acyl and N-aroyl aziridines) were studied by x-ray diffraction. All the crystalline polymers studied have a triclinic unit cell with two monomer units per unit cell. The a and c (fiber direction) parameters (4.9 and 6.5 A, respectively) are essentially the same for all the cells. The b parameter for the N-acyl polymers, however, increases steadily by a factor of 2 A per methylene group added to the lateral chains. The densities calculated for the unit cells are in agreement with the experimental values obtained. The most probable structure is one in which the molecules assume a planar configuration with the main chain not fully extended. The lateral groups are tilted from the c axis by an angle of 54° in a parallel configuration and alternate on each side of the main chain. This permits these lateral groups to assume packing similar to that of polyethylene. A brief description of the techniques used in this interpretation is included.

    Notes: Results from characterization of melt-polymerized nylon 66 by various solution property measurements are reported and employed in analysis of typical molecular weight and compositional distributions for these systems. Critical attention is paid to application of standard procedures including light scattering, viscosity, membrane osmometry and other colligative property measurements in arriving at satisfactory specification of polymer molecular weight averages. Particular consideration is given to polymers extending appreciably beyond the lower and higher limits in molecular weight normally encountered. The conclusions drawn are: (1) in the range of number-average molecular weights less than about 25 000, nylon 66 as ordinarily prepared by melt condensation consists principally of linear species approximating the “most probable” distribution; (2) small amounts of cyclic oligomers are present in all samples: (3) increase in the extent of the melt polycondensation to progressively higher stages is accompanied by secondary reactions and the formation of branched components terminating ultimately in crosslinked, insoluble gels. Intrinsic viscosity-molecular weight relationships in seven solvents, applicable to nylon polymers meeting the requirements of (1) above, are derived.

    Notes: For an infinitely repeated regular polymer chain structure the only vibrations which are optically active are those in which the phase of the motion is the same in each unit (the factor-group modes). Frequencies for which the phase difference is nonzero are optically inactive but can become activated by the presence of defects in the chain. Such defects would normally be chemical impurities or conformational irregularities in the chain. A simple theory is developed which shows that for a dilute system of defects the major characteristics determining possible activation of the nonfactor-group modes are: (1) the strength of the coupling between the defect vibration and the vibrations of the neighboring chain, and (2) whether or not the natural frequency of the defect vibration lies inside a lattice band of the regular chain. An analysis of the low- and high-frequency regions of the spectrum of low-density polyethylene, based on the above considerations, indicates that several features of the spectrum can be associated with defect-induced absorption. A similar explanation can account for certain intensity changes in the C—Cl stretching region of syndiotactic poly(vinyl chloroide) when this polymer is submitted to mechanical treatment.

    Notes: A general description is given for relations among the optical quantities obtained from fluorescence polarization measurements on bulk polymer stained by fluorescent groups: the moments of distribution of orientations of the fluorescent groups, and those of the structural units of the polymer (chain segments) on which the groups are adsorbed. Two assumptions as to the biaxial symmetry of the bulk polymer and the cylindrical symmetry of the optical anisotropy of the fluorescent element, both for the absorption and emission processes, reduce the intensities of the polarized fluorescence to a 3 × 3 matrix L which is asymmetric (Lij ≠ Lji), as has frequently been observed in experiments. The components of the L matrix are related to those of the J matrix which is so defined as to describe the fourth moments of the distribution of orientations of the structural units on the basis of a random distribution of the rotational angle of the unit about the segment axis. It is found that the use of the method of fluorescence polarization combined with absorption dichroism and/or emission gives the values of the optical anisotropy ratios of the fluorescent unit, and that the effects of the thermal agitation of the structural unit can be separated from the moments of the orientation distribution for the simplest case.

    Notes: Eight epoxy-diamine networks have been formed, diamines with 2 to 12 methylene groups being used as curing agents. Dynamic mechanical tests revealed four transition regions in the dynamic loss modulus/temperature relationship. Two possible explanations for the relaxation of the glycidyl portion of the structure are proposed. One of the relaxations could be due to the breakdown of hydrogen bonds through the hydroxyl and ether groups. The second could be ascribed to the relaxation of the unbonded glycidyl groups or a second relaxation of the glycidyl groups after the breakdown of the hydrogen bonds.

    Notes: Previous theoretical calculations of elastic constants for cellulose based on force constants for bond stretching and bending of valence angles have yielded axial stiffness values admittedly too low. The present analysis accounts for a hitherto unexamined geometrical effect associated with deformation of interchain hydrogen bonds. To do this, most primary bond deformations are neglected so the resulting calculation gives an upper bound for the axial stiffness. By using two different sets of hydrogen bond force constants, values of 24.6 and 31.9 × 1011 dyne/cm2 were obtained for Young's modulus in the chain direction. These values are very much larger than earlier calculations and experimental determinations from cellulosic fibers, indicating both the importance of the effect considered here and the likelihood of an exact analysis yielding an acceptable result.

    Notes: It is demonstrated that in a filled polymer the thermal stresses resulting from the difference in the thermal expansion coefficients of the filler and the polymer have significant effect on the apparent coefficient of thermal expansion of the composite. A model is constructed to aid the thermal stress analysis, and the results are found to agree well with the experimental data obtained from other sources. An expression for the apparent densities of filled polymers is also obtained but the agreement between the present prediction with an existing test result is found to be only qualitative.

    Notes: Diffusion coefficients and solubilities of methane in polyisobutylene have been measured at four temperatures between 102 and 188°C. in the pressure range 23-341 atm. Diffusion coefficients extrapolated to atmospheric pressure range from 1.72 × 10-6 cm.2/sec. at 102°C. to 1.5 × 10-5 cm.2/sec. at 188°C. corresponding to an activation energy for diffusion of 8.7 ± 0.4 kcal./mole. Solubilities are small, about one molecule of methane for every forty carbon atoms in the polyisobutylene at 300 atm. partial pressure of methane. Solubilities vary little with temperature, but show an apparent minimum between 127 and 188°C. With improved methods of data analysis, diffusion coefficients and solubilities have been recalculated from previously reported studies on nitrogen in branched polyethylene and methane in branched polyethylene, linear polyethylene, and polystyrene. Recalculated diffusion coefficients are essentially the same as those reported previously, but the recalculated solubilities are decreased from 2 to 30%. The solubilities of all five systems show strong deviations from Henry's law, i.e., increases in partial pressure of methane and nitrogen with respect to solubility exceed linearity. The partial pressure (or fugacity) - solubility data may be interpreted in terms of a sorption model in which sorbed molecules are accommodated in widely dispersed, unoccupied volumes or sites in the polymer. An almost equivalent, solution model in which the first sorbed molecules to enter the polymer are accommodated to a large extent in existing volumes in the polymer, with successively sorbed molecules swelling the polymer to a greater extent (i.e., partial molal volume of sorbed molecules, V1, increasing with concentration) can also account for these data.

    Notes: The discrepancy between the values of the anisotropy of methylene groups determined from crystal refractive indices, stress-optical data, and gas and liquid light-scattering depolarization is explained on the basis of the effect of the internal field on the polarizability of the isolated molecule. The internal field may arise from intermolecular or intramolecular interactions which depend upon molecular conformation and state of aggregation. A simple continuum calculation based upon an extension of the calculation of the Lorenz-Lorentz field is shown capable of accounting for the discrepancy.

    Notes: Nylon 66 films exhibiting form I melting behavior show the γ mechanical relaxation at -140°C. Samples which have form II melting behavior do not show this relaxation. The γ relaxation disappears when material having form I behavior is converted to material having form II behavior by annealing or by cold drawing. The form I and form II types of melting behavior are also found in poly(ethylene terephthalate); the interconversions and thermal behavior of the forms are analogous to the nylon 66 case. In poly(ethylene terephthalate), the β relaxation at -40 to -60°C is present only when form I melting behavior is found. Conversion to form II melting behavior by annealing or drawing (80°C) again causes the relaxation to disappear. No β relaxation was found in amorphous polymer. The γ dispersion in nylon 66 and the β dispersion in poly(ethylene terephthalate) can therefore be associated with the crystalline structure responsible for form I melting behavior. Form I melting behavior has been associated with foldedchain crystals based on previous work. It is therefore postulated that the γ dispersion in nylon 66 and the β dispersion in poly(ethylene terephthalate) are associated with motions in the chain folds. This assignment is not inconsistent with the change in the γ dispersion of nylon 66 with the number of backbone CH2 units, since these will affect the fold structure.

    Notes: The strength-limiting process in the fracture of semicrystalline fibers and highly oriented films is the rupture of tie molecules connecting the folded chain lamellae in the machine direction. This view is supported by the data on stress and temperature dependence of lifetime of fibers under load and on radical formation during the fracture experiment. The observed tensile strength, however, is about 10 times smaller and the number of fractured chains between 100 and 1000 times larger than expected on the basis of the known number of tie molecules in the fracture plane. This discrepancy is a consequence of the inhomogeneity of the micromorphology of fiber structure, which causes a much larger stress concentration on the most unfavorably located tie molecules than the average value one would expect in the case of perfectly uniform stress distribution on identical tie molecules. The fluctuation of amorphous layer thickness, of number and length of tie molecules, produces such a high stress concentration on some tie molecules throughout the sample that they rupture long before the average stress concentration is sufficient for chain fracture. By accumulation of damage caused by gradual chain rupture the weakening of the sample locally proceeds so far that at the maximum damage concentration, microcracks start to form, and the fiber breaks.

    Notes: The dynamic shear behavior of four highly amorphous polymers in the unstretched and stretched states (draw ratios 3:1 to 6:1) was investigated with a torsion pendulum at temperatures from 4.2°K to 180-300°K and frequencies from 0.4 to 3.2 cps. The polymers studied were polystyrene, poly(vinyl acetate), poly(vinyl propionate), and poly(isobutyl vinyl ether). Previously unreported loss maxima were found at 48°K (1.5 cps) and 149°K (1.3 cps) for poly(vinyl proplonate), at 10°K (1.0 cps) for poly(vinyl acetate) and at 9°K (1.6 cps) for poly(isobutyl vinyl ether). Uniaxial orientation increased the shear storage modulus G, measured with the torsion axis parallel to the stretch direction and caused changes in the loss peaks which depended on the polymer material studied.

    Notes: Small-angle x-ray scattering studies were made on bulk-crystallized samples and annealed oriented films of TMPS. The temperature dependence of the small-angle scattering was determined over a range of annealing conditions. The effect of sample molecular weight on the small-angle peaks was also studied. The peak intensity, measured at room temperature after annealing, was strongly dependent on the annealing conditions. The position of the peak gradually moved to smaller angles (larger d spacings) as the annealing temperature was raised. Surface free energies were deduced from the melting point dependence of the crystallite size. This surface energy was found to increase with molecular weight in accord with values deduced for spherulite growth rate-temperature dependence.

    Notes: A model is proposed to account for the regular twisting of radial ribbons in certain polymer spherulites. The model assumes that the ribbons have crystallographically regular fold surfaces and that growth of the ribbons is nucleation-controlled. The model leads directly to a possible mechanism of spherulitic growth in some polymers.

    Notes: A specimen of linear polyethylene was subjected to isothermal secondary crystallization at a series of temperatures below the primary isothermal crystallization temperature, the melting and primary crystallization stages being held constant throughout the investigation. Dilatometric measurements exhibit an S-character at low values of undercooling Tp - Ts, where Tp and Ts are, respectively, the primary and secondary crystallization temperatures; at larger undercoolings, however, an initial very rapid crystallization is followed by a very slow stage. When corrected for thermal contraction of the polymer, the net degree of secondary transformation is seen to peak at a temperature in the range 109-113°C. The S-character of the isotherms and the peaked temperature variation of degree of transformation lead to the conclusion that a large portion of the secondary crystallization consists of the nucleation and growth of the new crystallites. Johnson-Mehl-Avrami analysis leads to a model of heterogeneous nucleation within the remaining amorphous zones, followed by one-dimensional, diffusion-controlled growth.

    Notes: The strength and extensibility of an unfilled styrene-butadiene rubber vulcanizate were determined in constrained biaxial tension (essentially pure shear) by stretching thinwalled cylindrical specimens in the axial direction with an Instron tester while gas pressure was admitted to maintain constant the outside diameter of a specimen. The rupture stress, λ1b, and the extension ratio, λ1b, in the axial direction and the rupture stress, σ2b, in the circumferential direction were determined at extension rates from 0.0031 to 3.1 min-1 and temperatures from 25 to 90°C. Rupture data in simple tension were also obtained by testing ring specimens under similar test conditions. The time-temperature shift factor, aT, obtained by superposing rupture data at different temperatures, gives a constant activation energy of 35 kcal. Doubly logarithmic plots were prepared showing the dependence of σ1b/λ1b, σ2b, and λ1b from the biaxial tensile tests and of σb/λb and λb from the simple tensile tests on the temperature-reduced extension rate, \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \lambda a_T $\end{document}. (The quantities σ1b/λ1b, σ2b, and σb/λb are rupture stresses based on the dimensions of undeformed specimens.) At equal values of \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \lambda a_T $\end{document}, the extension ratios λ1b and λb are sensibly identical. The ratios σ1b/σb and σ2b/σb, as well as λbσ2b/σb, were obtained from rupture data read from the composite curves at selected values of \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \dot \lambda a_T $\end{document}. Also, similar ratios were derived from stress data at equal extensions in biaxial and simple tension for 1.25 ≤ λ ≤ 3.0, the range comparable to that in which rupture data were obtained. A consideration of the ratios given by both the rupture and the stress data shows that the von Mises failure criterion is not applicable, although the departure is small except at the larger values of λb.

    Notes: A statistical model for the stereospecific polymerization of vinly monomers on Ziegler-Natta catalytic systems is presented. The basic assumptions of the model are: (a) the catalytic centers are asymmetric, so that at a given catalytic center the monomer CH2=CHR is inserted into the chain with two different rates according to the two different configurations of the opening carbon atom having the R group; (b) the insertion of a monomeric unit in the growing chain is affected also by interactions with the previous monomeric unit. Isotactic, syndiotactic, atatic, or stereoblock polymers are obtained according to the relative values of the two energy parameters expressing these two effects.

    Notes: Heats of solution (ΔHexp) in solvents of increasing thermodynamic power have been measured for four polymers: polystyrene (PS), poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc), polyisobutylene (PIB) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). After subtraction from ΔHexp of an interaction term (calculated by the Hildebrand treatment based on solubility parameters) and the excess volume term, the quantity remaining is interpreted as the conformational energy contribution (ΔUconf) to the heat of solution. ΔUconf appears to correlate well with some basic conformational properties of the chain, such as the sign of the temperature coefficient of unperturbed dimensions derived from solution properties, and shows a monotonic behavior with α, the expansion coefficient of the polymer coil in the final solution. Numerical values of ΔUconf, at least for those cases in which polymer solubility parameters are known with some certainty, are much larger than those evaluated from rubber elasticity experiments (through the experimentally accessible value of the energy component of the force of retraction im simple elongation).

    Notes: Polyvinylpyridine of molecular weight 0.77 × 106 was crosslinked by 2.5, 5, and 10% BrCH2C6H4CO(CH2)8COC6H4CH2Br and by 10% ClCH2C6H4CH2Cl; quaternization of the gel was completed with n-butyl bromide. Swelling ratios in aqueous solutions of lithium, sodium, and 4-isopropyl-N-n-butylpyridinium bromide and in methanolic lithium bromide were determined. Selectivity increased in the sequence Li+ 〈Na+ 〈PrN+-C5H5. The Flory parameter χ1, which measures interaction between solvent and polymer, decreased from 1.5 kT to nearly zero with increasing density of crosslinks in the aqueous solutions, and from 3 kT to 0.5 kT in the methanol solutions. The inverse proportionality of q2/3 (q = swelling ratio) to the crosslinking density was approximately verified for swelling of the resins in water, methanol, and dimethylformamide.

    Notes: The proton spin-lattice relaxation times (T1) of linear polyethylenes (PE) of varying morphology were measured as a function of temperature. The T1 of oriented bulkcrystallized and solution-crystallized material was isotropic, in disagreement with calculations based on a sample dipole pair model. Motion in the non-crystalline regions of the samples is shown to be responsible for the T1 minimum occurring around -20°C. The dependence of T1 at the minimum on the long period reinforces the model of an amorphous fraction composed of disordered lamellar surface layers. The temperature of the T1 minimum and the dependence of T1 on the long period imply that the mobility of these amorphous regions is reduced in cold-drawn and solution-crystallized samples. This mobility irreversibly increases with annealing. In highly relaxed samples the motion of a small portion of the disordered regions is almost liquidlike, as indicated by the presence of a second shorter T1.

    Notes: The structural and steric isomerism of propylene polymers has been estimated on the basis of solution properties as well as infrared and high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. Three general types of polypropylenes were prepared: polymers prepared with the cationic catalytic system AlCl3-C2H5Cl, stereoblock polymers obtained by successive extraction from a commercial product and isotactic polymers of low molecular weight obtained by thermal degradation of a highly isotactic polymer followed by hydrogenation with Adam's catalyst in dioxane at 40°C. The characterization of all samples was accomplished by equilibrium ultracentrifugation, vapor-pressure osmometry, viscometry, and gel-permeation chromatography. It is found that the molecular chain of cationically prepared polymer is somewhat branched owing to structural isomerism during polymerization. Isoamyl acetate is found to be a theta solvent for stereo-block as well as for atactic and syndiotactic polymers; the theta temperature is determined as the temperature at which the light-scattering second virial coefficient A2 vanishes. A close correlation is found between the theta temperature and stereoisomerism. The absorbances of the 1154 and 974 cm-1 bands in the infrared spectra decrease with decreasing molecular weight; in addition to the mere existence of alternating CH2 and CH(CH3) groups in the polymer chain, rather long sequences of this type are required for the appearance of these bands. Changes in the absorption band at 997 cm-1 show that chains consisting of over ten isotactically connected monomer units can assume a helical conformation. From the high-resolution NMR spectra of different polypropylenes, including isotactic polymers of low molecular weight, it is found that in estimating the microstructure, account must be taken of the effects of stereoisomerism within tetrads of monomer units on the apparent widths of the methylene proton resonances. If substantial concentrations of several of the possible types of tetrads are present (i.e., if the tactic sequence lengths are quite short), then it is difficult to determine the relative amounts of tactic dyads accurately from the 100 Mcps methylene proton resonances.

    Notes: The phenomenon of double melting, as manifested by two characteristic endotherms in the melting region on a differential thermal analysis (DTA) scan, has been studied in nylon 66 and polystyrene as a function of sample treatment by annealing or drawing. A variety of techniques were used in these studies including DTA, x-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, and mechanical testing. It is shown that the two endotherms are not caused by a bimodal crystal size distribution, by recrystallization, by orientation changes, or by phase changes. It is proposed that one endotherm is caused by the melting of foldedchain crystals, while the other is due to the melting of less perfect bundle crystals. This view is well supported by the results, especially by the DTA measurements made at different heating rates. Published data on the thermal behavior of annealed and drawn poly(ethylene terephthalate) and on polyethylene crystallized at various pressures may also be explained on this basis if it is allowed that in polyethylene the chains may be more extended.

    Notes: The yield-stress behavior of two glassy polymers is studied through the glass transition region over a wide range of strain rates. For temperatures below the glass transition temperature, the yield stress behavior could be described as a non-Newtonian flow in agreement with Eyring's theory, if one excepts a narrow range relating to the slowest strain rates. For temperatures above Tg, the yield-stress behavior is still nonlinear but fits the relations based on the concept of free volume.

    Notes: A “dual sorption” model has been proposed by Michaels, Vieth, et al. to explain extensive equilibrium sorption data for several gases in some glassy polymers. To explain data on sorption kinetics, it was further postulated that one of the sorption modes immobilizes the gas molecules. Stated mathematically, this model leads to a modified form of Fick's second law. Both normal and desorption time lags for diffusion have been computed here for this model of diffusion in glassy polymers. The computed time lags are shown to be dependent on the boundary concentrations used in permeation. Experimental measurement of these time lags would be a sensitive and critical test to ascertain the validity of this theory.

    Notes: Poly(methyl methacrylate) tensile bars were prepared containing nearly spherical polytetrafluoroethylene particles in concentrations from one to a thousand particles per gauge length of the bars. Particle diameters varied from 0.0035 to 0.018 in. Exhaustive tensile tests were performed at sufficiently high strain rate to assure brittle fracture and the results analyzed statistically by the theory of extreme values as proposed by Epstein. The results suggested that the polytetrafluoroethylene particles themselves did not act as flaws, but that they intensified the stress field on natural flaws which acted as the origin of fracture. Assuming a Laplace distribution as the underlying distribution of tensile strength (not to be confused with observed distribution of tensile strengths) gave predicted fracture statistics in good agreement with experiment.

    Notes: The distribution of molecular weights in realistic free-radical polymerizations with branching was analyzed theoretically. Series solutions were obtained for the fraction of molecules with r repeating units and the number of branch points contained in molecules with r repeating units. Branching by transfer processes was found to increase the proportion of both high and low molecular weight components in the system. The apportioning of branch points among r-mer molecules was shown to be somewhat narrower than a Poisson distribution. The major difference between the calculated distributions and previous model distributions for branched systems was the absence of discontinuities in the moments at all levels of branching.

    Notes: The problem of the structural theory of macromolecular networks is formulated and discussed in general terms. The conditions required for a system to become a homogeneous macromolecular network are defined and discussed. Networks are divided according to the nature of their junctions into three classes: energetic (with chemical or quasi-chemical crosslinks), topological (with entangled chains), and contact (with frictional interactions). The main features of these three classes are discussed. A distribution density function ψ describing the configurations of macromolecules in network systems is introduced. The phase space of variables is 4(N + 1)-dimensional and includes the coordinates of (N + 1) vectors hi joining the adjacent network junctions and (N + 1) contour lengths li of the network chains. The system of simultaneous equations required for the determination of the function ψ includes the equation of continuity, kinematic equations for the deformation velocity of the individual junctions, the force balance equation needed for the determination of sliding rates li, kinetic equations for the processes of junction breakage and reformation, and the equilibrium distribution of network junctions defining the initial conditions for the distribution function ψ.

    Notes: Extended-chain crystals of high molecular weight polymethylene, a polyethylene with a broad molecular weight distribution, and three fractions of polyethylene were grown from the melt under elevated pressure. Comparison of the crystal size distribution in the molecular chain direction (measured on fracture surfaces by electron microscopy) with the molecular weight distribution (measured by gel-permeation chromatography) gave the following results. Up to molecular weight 10,000 all samples showed eutectic separation into fully extended chain crystals of narrow molecular weight distribution. Above molecular weight 10,000 mixed crystals were formed. Under the chosen crystallization conditions larger chain extension was achieved with higher molecular weights. However, an increase in molecular weight by a factor of 1000 led only to a tenfold increase in chain extension. These facts are discussed in the light of a proposed mechanism of crystal growth.

    Notes: The Kuhn-Grün theory for the birefringence and dichroism of rubbery polymers is extended to the case of copolymers consisting of two or more statistical segments of differing lengths. It is shown that the previous equations are applicable provided that the anisotropy of polarizabilities and absorptions are replaced with suitable averages in which the segment anisotropies are weighted by the squares of their segment lengths. This indicates that the stress-optical coefficient will not generally vary linearly with composition. The orientation measured from the dichroism of bands arising from different segments will be different.

    Notes: A method of determining the distribution of branching in polydisperse polymer samples is proposed. This method uses data from concurrent gel permeation chromatography and sedimentation-velocity experiments. Tedious fractionation, which must precede other methods of determining long-chain branching, is eliminated. An example of use of the method on the data of a sample of styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer is given.

    Notes: This paper reports an electron microscopy study of the morphology of crystals of poly(vinylidene chloride) prepared under a variety of conditions and of the carbons resulting from the pyrolysis of the polymer. The structure of the polymer carbons prepared under conditions such that the polymer does not pass through a plastic phase is closely related to the morphology of the original polymer. The shapes of the crystals and of the crystal pseudomorphs are indexed in terms of the unit cell proposed by Narita and Okuda. Morphological studies of this kind are important in discussing the graphitizability of polymer carbons, their mechanical properties and pore structure, and the kinetics of the dehydrochlorination reaction.

    Notes: Heterogeneous nucleation and crystallization of FEP Teflon and nylon 6 melts against high energy surfaces (i.e., gold) produce an interfacial region, in these polymers, of high mechanical strength. Dissolution of the metal substrate rather than removal by mechanical means results in a polymer surface which is amenable to conventional structural adhesive bonding. Nucleation and crystallization of the polymer melts in contact with phases of low surface energy (e.g., vapor) result in the generation of weak boundary layers.

    Notes: Triplet → singlet energy transfer in nylon 66 film (donor) dyed with proflavine (acceptor) is demonstrated by a decrease of the nylon phosphoresence lifetime and an increase in the proflavine delayed fluorescence/nylon phosphoresence ratio with increasing proflavine concentration. Although the observed donor phosphorescence decay is apparently exponential, the transfer is probably via a long-range dipole-dipole (Förster) interaction, rather than by triplet exciton migration. Arguments are advanced to support this view. Proflavine delayed fluorescence produced by a direct excitation process is also observed. The decay time for this process is roughly an order of magnitude less than that for the sensitized process. All emission intensities are shown to vary linearly with exciting light intensity. Finally, temperature dependence of proflavine delayed fluorescence under different excitation conditions is shown. The efficiency of direct excitation process increases markedly near -50°C as the temperature is increased; the sensitized delayed fluorescence intensity follows that of the nylon phosphorescence with increasing temperature, as expected.

    Notes: The glass transition temperatures Tg of several fluorine-containing polymers were determined by use of the differential scanning calorimeter. Values between -3 and 230°C were obtained. In polymers of α-olefins, Tg increases with the fluorine content of the backbone and the length of the n-perfluoroalkyl branch. In styrene polymers Tg also is higher if the backbone contains fluorine but nearly the same Tg's are found for polymers with phenyl and pentafluorophenyl groups. Saturated polymers of perfluoro-α,ω-dienes have lower Tg's than polyperfluoro-α-olefins. The Tg's of chloroperfluoropolymers are higher than those of perfluoropolymers. Polyperfluoropentadiene-1,3 has the lowest Tg of the polymers examined. Polyperfluoropentadiene-1,3 forms by 1,4-addition.

    Notes: Drawn poly(ethylene terephthalate), PET, yarns have been heated for 1 min in silicone oil. The resulting samples were studied by x-ray diffraction and mechanical properties were measured. The results suggest that drawn PET consists of highly extended molecules essentially parallel to one another, with few folds present. On heating, chain folding occurs. This model is very similar to that proposed by Dismore and Statton for drawn nylon 66 yarns.

    Notes: A theoretical discussion is presented on the mechanisms by which an isolated pulsating air bubble in a viscoelastic solid dissipates its energy. The analysis is limited to the situation where the amplitude of motion is assumed to be sufficiently small that the stress strain relations may be described by linear equations with convected differentiation replaced by ∂/∂t. The theoretical thermal, radiation, and viscous damping constants are calculated for resonant air bubbles in unvulcanized natural rubber; however, the results are typical of elastomers in general.
