    Notes: Abstract The advent of cloning animals has created a maelstrom of social concern about the “ethical issues” associated with the possibility of cloning humans. When the “ethical concerns” are clearly examined, however, many of them turn out to be less matters of rational ethics than knee-jerk emotion, religious bias, or fear of that which is not understood. Three categories of real and spurious ethical concerns are presented and discussed: 1) that cloning is intrinsically wrong, 2) that cloning must lead to bad consequences, and 3) that cloning harms the organism generated. The need for a rational ethical framework for discussing biotechnological advances is presented and defended.

    Notes: Abstract Highly efficient Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) was obtained by first wounding stem explants via microprojectile bombardment. When this was followed by cocultivation with disarmed Agrobacterium in the dark, the transformation frequency-based on transient GUS expression-increased to over 10-fold that of explants wounded by other means and cocultivated under constant light. Two cycles of regeneration/selection on kanamycin were employed to generate stably transformed carnation plants and eliminate chimeras: first, plantlets were regenerated from inoculated stem explants and then leaves from these plantlets were used to generate transgenes in a second selection cycle of adventitious shoot regeneration. Agrobacterium strain AGLO, carrying the binary vector pCGN7001 containing uidA and nptII genes, was used in the stable transformation experiments. The combination of wounding via bombardment, cocultivation in the dark and two cycles of kanamycin selection yielded an overall transformation efficiency of 1–2 transgenes per 10 stem explants for the three carnation varieties analyzed. Histochemical and molecular analyses of marker genes in T0 and T1 generations confirmed the transgenic nature of the selected plants.

    Notes: Abstract The biosynthetic pathway to 4-hydroxybenzoate (4HB), a precursor of the naphthoquinone pigment shikonin, was modified in Lithospermum erythrorhizon hairy root cultures by introduction of the bacterial gene ubiC. This gene of Escherichia coli encodes chorismate pyruvate-lyase (CPL), an enzyme that converts chorismate into 4HB and is not normally present in plants. The ubiC gene was fused to the sequence for a chloroplast transit peptide and placed under control of a constitutive plant promoter. This construct was introduced into L. erythrorhizon by Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated transformation. The resulting hairy root cultures showed high CPL activity. 4HB produced by the CPL reaction was utilized for shikonin biosynthesis, as shown by in vivo inhibition of the native pathway to 4HB with 2-aminoindan-2-phosphonic acid (AIP), an inhibitor of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase. A feeding experiment with [1,7-13C2]shikimate showed that in the absence of AIP the artificially introduced CPL reaction contributed ca. 20% of the overall 4HB biosynthesis in the transgenic cultures. ubiC transformation did not lead to a statistically significant increase of shikonin formation, but to a 5-fold increase of the accumulation of menisdaurin, a nitrile glucoside which is presumably related to aromatic amino acid metabolism.

    Notes: Abstract Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco; EC 4.1.1.39) has played a central role in our understanding of chloroplast biogenesis and photosynthesis. In particular, its catalysis of the rate-limiting step of CO2 fixation, and the mutual competition of CO2 and O2 at the active site, makes Rubisco a prime focus for genetically engineering an increase in photosynthetic productivity. Although it remains difficult to manipulate the chloroplast-encoded large subunit and nuclear-encoded small subunit of crop plants, much has been learned about the structure/function relationships of Rubisco by expressing prokaryotic genes in Escherichia coli or by exploiting classical genetics and chloroplast transformation of the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. However, the complexity of chloroplast Rubisco in land plants cannot be completely addressed with the existing model organisms. Two subunits encoded in different genetic compartments have coevolved in the formation of the Rubisco holoenzyme, but the function of the small subunit remains largely unknown. The subunits are posttranslationally modified, assembled via a complex process, and degraded in regulated ways. There is also a second chloroplast protein, Rubisco activase, that is responsible for removing inhibitory molecules from the large-subunit active site. Many of these complex interactions and processes display species specificity. This means that attempts to engineer or discover a better Rubisco may be futile if one cannot transfer the better enzyme to a compatible host. We must frame the questions that address this problem of chloroplast-Rubisco complexity. We must work harder to find the answers.

    Notes: Abstract Blackspot, caused by the Ascomycete fungus Diplocarpon rosae, is the most widespread and pernicious disease of cultivated roses. While some species of rose possess resistance to D. rosae, none of the modern-day rose cultivars are fully resistant to the pathogen. In the current study, Biolistic gene delivery was used to introduce a rice gene, encoding a basic (Class I), chitinase into embryogenic callus of the blackspot-susceptible rose (Rosa hybrida L.) cv. Glad Tidings. The plasmid used for transformation carried the neomycin phosphotransferase (nptII) gene facilitating the selection and regeneration of transgenic plants on medium containing 250 mg/l kanamycin. Southern analysis confirmed integration of 2–6 copies of the chitinase gene into the rose genome; gene expression was confirmed by enzyme assay. Bioassays demonstrated that expression of the chitinase transgene reduced the severity of blackspot development by 13–43%. This degree of resistance to the pathogen correlated with the level of chitinase expression in the transgenic rose plants. The introduction of disease defence genes into rose provides a method of producing blackspot-resistant rose cultivars sought by breeders and growers.

    Notes: Abstract Genetically engineered rice (Oryza sativa L.) with the ability to synthesize glycinebetaine was established by introducing the codA gene for choline oxidase from the soil bacterium Arthrobacter globiformis. Levels of glycinebetaine were as high as 1 and 5 μmol per gram fresh weight of leaves in two types of transgenic plant in which choline oxidase was targeted to the chloroplasts (ChlCOD plants) and to the cytosol (CytCOD plants), respectively. Although treatment with 0.15 m NaCl inhibited the growth of both wild-type and transgenic plants, the transgenic plants began to grow again at the normal rate after a significantly less time than the wild-type plants after elimination of the salt stress. Inactivation of photosynthesis, used as a measure of cellular damage, indicated that ChlCOD plants were more tolerant than CytCOD plants to photoinhibition under salt stress and low-temperature stress. These results indicated that the subcellular compartmentalization of the biosynthesis of glycinebetaine was a critical element in the efficient enhancement of tolerance to stress in the engineered plants.

    Notes: Ten microbial genomes have been fully sequenced to date, and the sequencing of many more genomes is expected to be completed before the end of the century. The assignment of function to open reading frames (ORFs) is progressing, and for some genomes over 70% of functional assignments have been made. The majority of the assigned ORFs relate to metabolic functions. Thus, the complete genetic and biochemical functions of a number of microbial cells may be soon available. From a metabolic engineering standpoint, these developments open a new realm of possibilities. Metabolic analysis and engineering strategies can now be built on a sound genomic basis. An important question that now arises; how should these tasks be approached? Flux-balance analysis (FBA) has the potential to play an important role. It is based on the fundamental principle of mass conservation. It requires only the stoichiometric matrix, the metabolic demands, and some strain specific parameters. Importantly, no enzymatic kinetic data is required. In this article, we show how the genomically defined microbial metabolic genotypes can be analyzed by FBA. Fundamental concepts of metabolic genotype, metabolic phenotype, metabolic redundancy and robustness are defined and examples of their use given. We discuss the advantage of this approach, and how FBA is expected to find uses in the near future. FBA is likely to become an important analysis tool for genomically based approaches to metabolic engineering, strain design, and development. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The 1,3-1,4-β-glucanases from Bacillus macerans and Bacillus licheniformis, as well as related hybrid enzymes, are stable proteins comprised of one compact jellyroll domain. Their structures are studied in an effort to reveal the degree of redundancy to which the three-dimensional structure of protein domains is encoded by the amino acid sequence. For the hybrid 1,3-1,4-β-glucanase H(A16-M), it could be shown recently that a circular permutation of the sequence giving rise to the variant cpA16M-59 is compatible with wildtype-like enzymatic activity and tertiary structure (Hahn et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 91:10417-10421, 1994). Since the circular permutation yielding cpA16M-59 mimicks that found in the homologous enzyme from Fibrobacter succinogenes, the question arose whether de novo circular permutations, not guided by molecular evolution of the 1,3-1,4-β-glucanases, could also produce proteins with native-like fold. The circularly permuted variants cpA16M-84, cpA16M-127, and cpA16M-154 were generated by PCR mutagenesis of the gene encoding H(A16-M), synthesized in Escherichia coli and shown to be active in β-glucan hydrolysis. CpA16M-84 and cpA16M-127 were crystallized in space groups P21 and P1, respectively, and their crystal structures were determined at 1.80 and 2.07 Å resolution. In both proteins the main parts of the β-sheet structure remain unaffected by the circular permutation as is evident from a root-mean-square deviation of main chain atoms from the reference structure within the experimental error. The only major structural perturbation occurs near the novel chain termini in a surface loop of cpA16M-84, which becomes destabilized and rearranged. The results of this study are interpreted to show that: (1) several circular permutations in the compact jellyroll domain of the 1,3-1,4-β-glucanases are tolerated without radical change of enzymatic activity or tertiary structure, (2) the three-dimensional structures of simple domains are encoded by the amino acid sequence with sufficient redundancy to tolerate a change in the sequential order of secondary structure elements along the sequence, and (3) the native N-terminal region is not needed to guide the folding polypeptide chain toward its native conformation.

    Notes: Abstract Genetic improvement in plantation forestry relies significantly on conventional breeding techniques which have been used extensively to improve various characteristics in forest trees such as growth and form, volume yield, resistance to pathogens and quality of the end product. This review concentrates on molecular techniques which have been used successfully in agriculture and which have more recently become available to improve further characteristics of forest trees and introduce new traits which are currently not available in the breeding population.

    Notes: Abstract One transgenic rabbit line was generated carrying a fusion gene consisting of the cDNA for human IGF-1 fused to a mammary gland specific expression cassette derived from bovine alpha-S1-casein sequences. Transgene expression was shown to be strictly tissue and lactation period specific. The transgenic rabbit line was bred for six generations. All transgenic animals showed stable production of biologically active IGF-1 over the generations and no apparent effect on the physiological or reproductive performance was observed. The absence of adverse effects on homozygous transgenic rabbits suggested the absence of insertional mutagenesis. Eight hemizygous transgenic offspring analysed produced on average 363 ± 12μg/ml (ranging from 223 ± 61 to 484 ± 39 μg/ml) mature human IGF-1 in their milk, whereas three homozygous animals produced on average 543 ± 41 μg/ml (ranging from 360 ± 15 to 678 ± 80 μg/ml). Homozygous huIGF-1 females clearly showed a significantly increased production performance of the recombinant protein.

    Notes: We described genetically engineered syntheses of tandem repetitive polypeptides consisting of glycine-rich sequence, GlyLeuGlyGlyGlnGlyGlyGlyAlaGlyGlnGlyGlyTyrGly, designated SCAP(1), in spidroin I of spider dragline silk from Nephila clavipes and the secondary conformational analyses in the solid state by Fourier transform ir measurements. The polypeptides composed of 4, 5, 6, 7, 11, 12, or 13 repeats of SCAP(1) were expressed in Escherichia coli, purified by nickel chelate affinity chromatography, and then cleaved with cyanogen bromide to release N- and C-terminal extensions. Typical yields were from 1.2 to 5.2 mg of lyophilized uncleaved polypeptides per liter of fermentation medium at an absorbance of 2.0 at 600 nm, and the production levels increased with decreasing the molecular weight of the expressed polypeptides. The lyophilized powder of cleaved SCAP(13) adopted the random coil, whereas the cast film from formic acid formed the β-sheet structure. The conformational results might indicate that the glycine-rich sequence formed β-sheet structure in spidroin I. Cleaved SCAP(13) started to decompose under nitrogen at ca. 230°C, which was in agreement with the decomposition temperature of the spider dragline silk from N. clavipes. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The bacterial hemoglobin from Vitreoscilla has been shown to increase growth yield and yield of genetically engineered product in Escherichia coli. To test the generality of this phenomenon, the approximately 560-bp bacterial (Vitreoscilla) hemoglobin gene (vgb) (including the native promoter), cloned into the vector pUC8 in two constructs containing about 1650 and 850 bp, respectively, of Vitreoscilla DNA downstream of vgb, was transformed into Serratia marcescens. After several transfers of the transformants on selective media, both plasmids became stable in this host and the resulting strains produced hemoglobin. Both transformants were compared, regarding growth in liquid Luria-Bertani (LB) medium, with untransformed S. marcescens and S. marcescens transformed with pUC8. The vgb-bearing strains had about 5 times lower maximum viable cell numbers than the strains without hemoglobin, but the former also had late log or early stationary phase cells that were 5-10 times larger than those of the latter. Further, on a dry cell mass basis the presence of vgb inhibited cell growth in liquid media. In contrast, growth of the vgb-bearing strains on LB plates based on cell mass (determined from colony size) was markedly enhanced compared with that of the pUC8 transformant. Respiration of the vgb-bearing strains was lower than that of the strains without vgb on a cell mass basis. These results show that the presence of vgb can have idiosyncratic effects and is not always an aid to cell growth so that its use for genetic engineering must be tested on a case by case basis. ©1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Aspartate aminotransferase (AATase) and aminocyclopropane carboxylate synthase (ACC synthase) are pyridoxal phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzymes whose common junction of mechanistic divergence is after the formation of a Cα carbanion from the amino acid substrate bound to PLP as a Schiff base (aldimine). AATase catalyzes the reversible interconversion of α-amino acids and α-keto acids, while ACC synthase effects the irreversible decomposition of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) to 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) and 5′-methylthioadenosine (MTA). ACC is subsequently converted to ethylene, the plant ripening and senescence hormone, by ACC oxidase, the next enzyme in the pathway. AATase and ACC synthase exhibit many similar phenomenological characteristics that result from different detailed mechanistic origins. The kcat/KM versus pH profiles for both enzymes are similar (AATase, acidic pKa = 6.9, basic pKa = 9.6; ACC synthase, acidic pKa = 7.5, basic pKa = 8.9); however the acidic pKa of AATase reflects the ionization of an enzyme proton from the internal Schiff base, and the basic one is that of the α-amino group of the substrate, while the opposite situation obtains for ACC synthase, i.e. the apparent pKa of 7.4 is due to the α-amino group of SAM, whereas that of 9 reflects the Schiff base pKa. The mechanistic imperative underlying this reversal is dictated by the reaction mechanism and the low pKa of the α-amino group of SAM. The low pKa of SAM requires that the enzyme pKa be moved upward in order to have sufficient quantities of the reacting species at neutral pH. It is shown by viscosity variation experiments with wild-type and active site mutant controls of both enzymes that the reaction of SAM with ACC synthase is 100% diffusion controlled (kcat/KM = 1.2 × 106 l mol-1 s-1) while the corresponding reaction for the combination of L-aspartate with AATase is insensitive to viscosity, and is therefore chemically not diffusion limited. Tyr225 (AATase) or Tyr233 (ACC synthase) forms a hydrogen bond with the PLP in both enzymes, but that formed with the former enzyme is stronger and accounts for the lower pKa of the Schiff base. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: This paper reports the activity of four dibutyltin(IV)-N-arylidene-α-amino acid complexes against the National Cancer Institute (NCI) panel of 60 cell lines. The results indicated that three of the organotin complexes (C17H25NO3Sn, C18H27NO3Sn and C20H31NO3Sn) exhibit their highest cytotoxic effect on the NCI-522 (non-small cell lung cancer) cell line. The fourth complex, C21H27NO3Sn, exhibits its highest cytotoxic activity on the cell line RXF-631L (renal cancer). In general, a low to moderate cellular response was observed for all the organotin complexes, with at least one cell line in each subpanel of cells exhibiting a very low growth inhibition response to all the organotin complexes. The low-responding cell lines included HOP-62 (non-small lung cancer), DLD-1 (colon cancer), SF-539 (CNS cancer), SK-MEL-5 (melanoma), IGROV-1 (ovarian cancer) and RPMI-8226 (leukemia). The results also indicated that the compounds did not exhibit any significant subpanel activity and suggested that the compounds were not active in all the cell lines contained in any subpanel. The low to moderate activity of these compounds across the cell lines was attributed to the presence of nitrogen-bearing ligands which prevented the dissociation of the compound and the subsequent binding to DNA. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The volatile antimony compound trimethylantimony (TMA) was detected in headspace gases over anaerobic soil enrichment cultures spiked with potassium antimony tartrate. The presence of TMA was variable (12 positives from 104 cultures) and dependent upon both the inoculum source (environmental sample) and enrichment culture conditions. Positives for TMA formation were obtained with variable frequency for four of the six soils tested and for three types of enrichment culture, designed to encourage growth of nitrate-reducing, methane-producing or fermentative bacteria. The identity of the volatile antimony compound produced in each of the three types of enrichment culture was confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-atomic absorption spectroscopy. There was no evidence of any other volatile antimony compound in the headspace gases. These data suggest that the capability to generate TMA is widely distributed in the terrestrial environment and is attributable to different metabolic types of micro-organisms. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The methods of synthesis, elemental analysis, IR and NMR spectroscopic data and fungicidal activity against Ceratocystis ulmi are reported for a series of triorganotin esters of N-arylidene-ω-amino acids of general formula R3SnOCO(CH2)nN = CHAr (R = Ph, n-Bu; Ar = 2-HOC6H4, 2-HOC10H6; n = 1, 2, 3 and 5). The crystal structures for two of the compounds, tributyltin N-2-hydroxynaphthalidene glycinate (1) and tributyltin N-2-hydroxynaphthalidene-β-alaninate (2), have been determined. Although both of these compounds have a trans-R3SnO2 structure, in compound 1 the carboxylate group is monodentate and the fifth coordination position around the tin atom is taken up by a coordinated phenolic group, whereas in 2 the carboxylate group is bridging. These two examples thus correspond to the two different structures reported for trans-R3SnO2 complexes. Both compounds were found to be active against Ceratocystis ulmi, but there was no significant difference in their levels of biological activity against this particular fungus. Apart from compound 1, the other tributyltin compounds reported are believed to adopt the carboxylate bridging mode shown by compound (2).Crystal data: for 1, crystals monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 12.9435(11) Å, b = 13.5769(10) Å, c = 15.7715(12) Å, β = 108.919(6)°, Z = 4, Rf = 0.046 and Rw = 0.058 for 1448 significant reflections; for 2, crystals monoclinic, space group C 2/c,a = 24.588(14) Å, b = 9.733(3) Å, c = 27.611(12) Å,β = 113.49(4)°, Z = 8, Rf = 0.053 and Rw = 0.069 for 3822 significant reflections. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The ferrocene/ferricenium redox system plays a significant role in biological oxidation, reduction and free-radical reactions. Of particular interest are the findings of earlier investigations which showed certain water-soluble ferricenium salts to possess appreciable antiproliferative activity against various murine tumor lines and a xenografted human colorectal adenocarcinoma. Solubility in water, a prerequisite for efficacious transport and dissipation in central circulation, was then proposed as a principal requirement for the ferrocene complex system to exert antineoplastic activity irrespective of the oxidation state in which it is administered. In order to shed more light on this question, we decided to investigate the antiproliferative properties of polymer-ferrocene conjugates containing the metal complex in the non-oxidized (ferrocene) form while fulfilling the critical requirement of water solubility. To this end, five selected, water-soluble conjugates, synthesized by reversible coupling of 4-ferrocenylbutanoic acid to variously structured polyaspartamides featuring pendant primary amino groups as coupling sites, were tested in vitro against cultured HeLa cells at concentrations up to 50 µg Fe ml-1. Optimal antiproliferative activities, with IC50 in the range of 2-7 µg Fe ml-1, were determined for three compounds possessing tertiary-amine functions susceptible to protonation at physiological pH. Lower activities (IC50 = 45-60 µg Fe ml-1) were demonstrated for two poly(ethylene oxide)-containing conjugates. However, no reasonable structure-performance relationships can be derived at this stage from the small number of compounds tested. Copyright © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Legislation on methylmercury within the European Union (EU), e.g. in food (national regulations) or water (EC Directives), requires that the determinations are of proven quality; thus implies that they should be carried out under strict quality control (QC). One method of achieving good quality control in chemical analysis is to verify the analytical performance of methods by analysing Certified Reference Materials (CRMs). While CRMs of biological matrices (e.g. fish, mussels) are already available, there was a lack of materials for the QC of sediment analysis. This paper describes the preparation of an estuarine sediment reference material, the homogeneity and stability studies and the analytical work performed for the certification of the contents of total mercury and methylmercury. The results of a group of expert laboratories are discussed and the methods used to certify the mass fractions of total mercury (132 ± 3 mg kg-1 on a dry mass basis) and methylmercury (75.5 ± 3.7 μg kg-1 as CH3Hg+ on a dry mass basis) are described. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Butyltin concentrations in the sediments of two coastal areas of British Columbia, Canada, are reported. Two recent box cores from the deepest basin in the Strait of Georgia were sectioned and analyzed by GC-atomic emission spectrometry. No butyltin compounds were detected above 0.5 μgSn kg-1 (dry weight) in either core. These results are compared to those for a previous (1991) core from the same area. In that study, tributyltin (TBT) concentrations were in the range 1-2 μgSn kg-1 down the core and were higher than those of either of the degradation products, dibutyltin (DBT) and monobutyltin (MBT). Radioisotope dating (210Po-210Pb counting methods) was used to establish the rates of sedimentation of 0.25 and 2.6 cm y-1 at the two sites. Data suggest that a combination of rapid deposition of new, less-contaminated material and degradation of previously deposited butyltin compounds has resulted in the observed absence. Thirty-three surface sediments from the northern BC coastal harbor at Prince Rupert, collected in 1995, were analyzed for butyltin residues by GC-FPD. Concentrations of TBT, DBT and MBT were in the ranges from below the appropriate limit of detection (LOD) to 1262, to 109 and to 37 μgSn kg-1, respectively. TBT/DBT ratios ranged from 0.2 to 62 with most above unity, indicating that there is continuing fresh input of TBT. The sources are almost exclusively large ocean-going vessels that use the harbor for long-term anchorage. These findings are discussed with reference to the global TBT status. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The effects of: (1) the modifier type (methanol and formic, acetic and propionic acids), (2) complexing agents (diethylammonium diethyldithiocarbamate, ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate) either with or without acidic modifiers, (3) the extraction temperature (50-80 °C) and pressure (30-50 MPa), (4) the extraction procedure (static-dynamic or dynamic), and (5) the volume of static modifier, on the extraction efficiency of native butyl- and phenyl-tin compounds from sediment, were evaluated comprehensively. The highest extraction efficiency for butyl- and phenyl-tin compounds was obtained at 30 MPa and 50 °C by using CO2 modified with acetic acid (200 μl in the cell). Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) extracts were hexylated and determined by GC-FPD using a 610 nm bandpass filter without any clean-up step. In summary, the developed analytical procedure is robust (no restrictor clogging; free from FPD interferences), it is low-cost (no complexing agents needed), it has a high sample throughput (〈3 h), it is independent of the matrix for the determination of butyltin compounds in sediment, and it provides the highest precision among the SFE procedures reported for organotin determination. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A radiotracer experiment was conducted in a controlled experimental ecosystem (microcosm) to determine the persistence and behavior of tributyltin (TBT) under conditions simulating a temperate, shallow estuarine ecosystem. Radiolabeled TBT was introduced to the estuarine microcosm, which contained estuarine water, sediment and fish. TBT and its degradation products were monitored for 40 days. TBT rapidly distributed among the compartments of the microcosm. The TBT half-life in the water column was 2.55 days for the first 11 days and then slowed to 13.4 days. More than 60% of the TBT and its metabolites were found in the sediment, indicating that the sediment was an important sink for butyltins. Higher concentrations of butyltins, relative to the water column concentrations, were found in the surface microlayer. TBT could be bioconcentrated by the fish to levels more than 200 times the exposure concentration, and underwent rapid degradation in the fish body, so that high concentrations of its metabolites were found in the fish. The concentrations of TBT adsorbed on the suspended particles were three orders of magnitude greater than that in dissolved form. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The method validation for the speciation of five arsenic species in urine samples by liquid chromatography hyphenated to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry is described. Arsenic species which are identified and quantified in urine samples are the anions of arsenic(III), arsenic(V), monomethylarsonic acid and dimethylarsinic acid, and the cationic arsenobetaine. Detection limits were obtained in the range 0.3-0.4 μg As l-1 while the repeatability was in the range 3-4% (RSD) for concentrations above five times the detection limit. Urine samples could be analysed directly after a ten-fold dilution step. Arsenic compound concentrations were determined in urine samples from a volunteer who consumed a portion of tuna fish high in arsenobetaine. It was found that arsenobetaine was excreted rapidly via the urine with maximum concentrations after 12 h. Nearly complete arsenobetaine excretion was reached after 48 h. Background levels of arsenic compounds were determined in 61 urine samples from non-exposed inhabitants of The Netherlands. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) hybrid networks have been prepared by the reaction of PDMS(OH)2, average molecular weight 26 × 103, 43.6 × 103 and 58 × 103, and methyltriethoxysilane (MeTEOS, 10-60 wt%) using a dibutyltin dilaurate or dibutyltin diacetate catalyst. By hydrolysis and homo- and co-condensation, MeTEOS forms a siliceous domain (MeSD) and acts as a crosslinker for the PDMS domain. Kinetic studies showed that high MeTEOS and catalyst concentrations and reduction of free surface area favor fast gelation and efficiency in converting MeTEOS to the MeSD. Under the water-sparse conditions utilized, cure was slow and substantial evaporative loss of MeTEOS occurred. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The dynamical behavior of γ-Fe2O3 particles dispersed in a polymer have been investigated by a.c. susceptibility and Mössbauer spectroscopy measurements. The effect of interparticle interactions on the relaxation time is satisfactorily described by a superparamagnetic model where the dipolar energy is determined by a statistical calculation for a disordered arrangement of particles with volume distribution and easy axes in random orientations. The results indicate that the single particle anisotropy energy is mainly determined by surface anisotropy and that the energy barrier increases with the interaction strength. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Cultures of the fungus Scopulariopsis brevicaulis were grown in antimony-rich media. Although volatile compounds of other elements were readily detected in the culture headspace, volatile antimony compounds were formed irreproducibly and at only ultratrace levels. In order to monitor the media for nonvolatile methylantimony compounds, a method of sample preparation was developed, based on solid-phase extraction. This enabled the separation of large quantities of soluble inorganic antimony species from trace amounts of organoantimony compounds before speciation by HG-GC-AAS. By this methodology methylated antimony compounds were detected at concentrations of 0.8- 7.1 µg Sbl-1 in all media in which S. brevicaulis was grown in the presence of antimony(III) compounds. These methylantimony species were not detected in any of the nonliving or medium-only controls. Methylated compounds were not detected where S. brevicaulis was grown in the presence of antimony(V) compounds. This is the first study to show that antimony(III) compounds are biomethylated by S. brevicaulis under aerobic-only growth conditions. Copyright © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The dynamic wetting behaviour on a perfluorinated, low-energy solid has been investigated for a carbohydrate-modified phenylsiloxane surfactant. The surfactant concentration, the rate of interface generation and the [solid/liquid interface area] : [liquid/vapour interface area] ratio were varied systematically. Dynamic data for the liquid/vapour (γlv) and solid/liquid (γsl) interfacial tension as well as their Lifshitz-van der Waals and donor-acceptor contributions were determined under strictly controlled conditions. Since γsl reacts sensitively to variations of the surfactant concentration and the rate of interface generation, the covering of the liquid/non-polar solid interface is assumed to be a spreading limiting factor. The corresponding γlv values remain constant and close to those obtained under equilibrium conditions. Copyright © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The transport dynamics of tributyltin (TBT) between the surface microlayer and subsurface water were studied in experimental systems which simulated different surface sea states. A dynamic model was derived from a diffusion equation to describe the dynamics of the TBT transport process. With this dynamic model diffusion coefficients were determined, and the effects of surface sea states and temperature on the TBT transport process between the surface microlayer and subsurface water were also studied. Turbulence, breaking waves and elevated temperature can accelerate this transport. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A novel technique has been developed for the determination of trace amounts of methylmercury in various sample matrices. The newly developed HPLC method makes it possible to separate methylmercury and inorganic mercury with ultrasonic nebulization and detection by ICP MS for different mercury isotopic masses. The isotope-specific detection allows the application of the species-specific isotope addition method for the determination of methylmercury with a correction for artifact formation. The well-known water-vapour distillation method was used in combination with an enriched stable inorganic mercury isotope (200Hg2+) for the separation of methylmercury from various matrices. The subsequent determination of CH3 - 200Hg+ generated from 200Hg2+ was used in the correction for artifact formation during sample preparation. In comparison with a previously developed HPLC coupling technique with HPF-HHPN (high-performance flow/­hydraulic high-pressure nebulization), the stability of the detection procedure was improved considerably. The limit of detection (S/N = 3) for methylmercury was calculated to be about 0.015 μg kg-1. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: An analytical method is described for methylmercury determination in fish and aqueous samples using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) followed by gas chromatography-atomic fluorescence spectrometry (GC-AFS). The procedure involves aqueous-phase derivatization of methylmercury species with sodium tetraethylborate in a sample vial and subsequent extraction with a silica fiber coated with poly-­(dimethylsiloxane). The mercury derivatives are desorbed in the splitless injection port of a gas chromatograph and subsequently analyzed by GC-AFS. The headspace SPME procedure is used and parameters affecting the extraction, adsorption and desorption are evaluated. Results for methylmercury analysis in standard reference material (DORM-2) and fish samples are presented. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The macromolecular substitution approach for the synthesis of polyphosphazenes provides access to many different polymers. However, it precludes the use of reagents that contain two or more functional groups because such compounds would cause extensive crosslinking of the chains. This presents a problem because many of the uses for which polyphosphazenes seem ideally suited require the presence of -OH, -COOH, -NH2, -SO3H, -PR2 and other functional units in the side-chain structure. We have developed two approaches to introduce such active sites: (1) protection-deprotection reactions; and (2) direct reactions of active reagents with the organic side-groups of non-functional poly(organophosphazenes). These methods have been applied both at the molecular level and in the form of reactions carried out only at polymer surfaces. The resultant polymers have special properties that are valuable in the micro-encapsulation of sensitive biological agents; in the formation of hydrophobic, hydrophilic, or adhesive surfaces; in crosslinking reactions; and in the development of solid polymer electrolytes, bio-erodible polymers, pH-triggered hydrogels, polymer blends and interpenetrating polymer networks. Overall, more than 700 different polyphosphazenes are now known, and a large number of these are functional macromolecules targeted for specific property combinations and uses. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A diverse and entirely new class of monomer and polymer technology based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) reagents has been developed. POSS reagents are unique in that they are physically large (approx. 15 Å diameter and 1000 amu) and are composed of a robust silicon-oxygen framework that can be easily functionalized with a variety of organic substituents. Appropriate functionalization of POSS cages allows for their incorporation into traditional thermoplastic resins without modification of existing manufacturing processes. The incorporation of POSS segments into linear copolymer systems results in increased glass transition and decomposition temperatures, increased oxygen permeability and reduced flammability and heat evolution, as well as modified mechanical properties relative to conventional organic systems. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Organophosphazenes with a similar mesogenic moiety were prepared and their mesogenicity was studied by differential scanning calorinetry (DSC) measurements and polarizing microsope observations. In cyclotriphosphazenes with alk-­oxybiphenyl and Schiff base moieties, mesomorphic phase transitions were observed, but no mesomorphic phase was observed for the corresponding cyclotetraphosphazenes. In polyphos-­phazenes with an alkoxybiphenyl moiety, no mesomorphic phase was observed. The molecular structure of cyclotriphosphazenes facilitated the formation of a mesomorphic layer structure; in contrast, the formation of a mesomorphic layer structure did not occur in cyclotetraphosphazenes and polyphosphazenes, even though they bore a similar mesogenic moiety. Moreover, in cyclotriphosphazenes with an optically active alkoxybiphenyl group, a smectic C* phase was observed. The spontaneous polarization of the compound was -190 μ C m-2 at 436 K in 25 μ in cell using the triangular-wave method. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Poly(arylene ether) main-chain phosphonium ionomers were successfully synthesized and characterized. The reaction scheme involved first preparing the poly(arylene ether phosphine oxide) by a nucleophilic step or condensation polymerization of bisphenolates on activated aryl halides, wherein phenyl phosphine oxide was the activating group. High-molecular-weight, tough, film-forming polymers were produced with glass transition temperatures of 200°C or higher. The resulting materials were successfully reduced using phenylsilane in refluxing chlorobenzene. The derived phosphine or phosphine/phosphine oxide copolymer was reacted with alkyl halides to produce the phosphonium salts. The resulting materials showed enhanced hydrophilicity and in some cases could be successfully dispersed in water. In addition, chromophores such as Methyl Orange and Methyl Red were combined with the backbone ionomer to produce new film-forming, ionically linked species. The materials are of general interest for situations where water-dispersible intermediates, e.g. coatings, fiber sizings etc. are required. The phosphonium salts can be converted back to the phosphine oxide in fairly high yields by simple thermal methods and in quantitative yield by chemical methods (e.g. the Wittig reaction). © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Our recent work directed at the design, synthesis, characterization and applications of new types of polyborazylene and polyborosilazane polymers is reviewed with a focus on the use of these polymers as processable precursors to BN and SiNCB composites. A design strategy based on the controlled functionalization of preformed polymers with pendant groups of suitable compositions and crosslinking properties has been employed to yield second-generation dipentylamine-polyborazylene (DPA) and pinacolborane-hydridopolysilazane (PIN-HPZ) polymers, which, unlike the parent polyborazylene (PB) and the borazine-hydridopolysilazane (B-HPZ) polymers, are stable as melts and can be easily melt-spun into polymer fibers. Subsequent pyrolyses of these polymer fibers then provide excellent routes to BN and SiNCB ceramic fibers. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Samples of the edible mushroom Laccaria amethystina, which is known to accumulate arsenic, were collected from two uncontaminated beech forests and an arsenic-contaminated one in Denmark. The total arsenic concentration was 23 and 77 μg  As g-1 (dry weight) in the two uncontaminated samples and 1420 μg As g-1 in the contaminated sample. The arsenic species were liberated from the samples using focused microwave-assisted extraction, and were separated and detected by anion- and cation-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography with an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer as arsenic-selective detector. Dimethylarsinic acid accounted for 68-74%, methylarsonic acid for 0.3-2.9%, trimethylarsine oxide for 0.6-2.0% and arsenic acid for 0.1-6.1% of the total arsenic. The unextractable fraction of arsenic ranged between 15 and 32%. The results also showed that when growing in the highly arsenate-contaminated soil (500-800 μg As g-1) the mushrooms or their associated bacteria were able to biosynthesize dimethylarsinic acid from arsinic acid in the soil. Furthermore, arsenobetaine and trimethylarsine oxide were detected for the first time in Laccaria amethystina. Additionally, unidentified arsenic species were detected in the mushroom. The finding of arsenobetaine and trimethylarsine oxide in low amounts in the mushrooms showed that synthesis of this arsenical in nature is not restricted to marine biota. In order to minimize the toxicological risk of arsenic to humans it is recommended not to consume Laccaria amethystina mushrooms collected from the highly contaminated soil, because of a genotoxic effect of dimethylarsinic acid observed at high doses in animal experiments. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.No Abstract.

    Notes: During the synthesis of ZnS powders by wet chemical precipitation, the formation of nanoporous spheres is observed. The powders have been investigated using thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction and optical spectroscopies. Nanopore formation can be explained by several stages of growth. The formation of nanoparticles as primary particles is followed by their agglomeration forming secondary particles. These secondary particles are monodispersed spheres with a considerable porosity, because the agglomeration of the nanoparticles is unlikely to be volume-filling. The voids or nanopores formed by this agglomeration process in the secondary particles is estimated to comprise around 35% of the sphere volume. They are mainly filled with water and the residues of the chemical reagents. Water in the pores partially reacts with ZnS and forms hydrated sulphates. The chemical reagents used for the precipitation reactions are also found to be bound to the nanocrystallite's surfaces as ligands in some cases. Depending on the reaction conditions and reagents, the agglomeration of the nanoparticles can also be modified or hindered by the use of complexing agents acting as a sterically stabilizing surface layer on the nanocrystallites. The agglomeration of nanoparticles to larger units being a general phenomenon, this use of complexing agents to control pore formation and agglomerate size should be applicable to other nanocrystalline systems. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The magnetic properties of α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles of different shapes (spherical, rhombohedral and acicular), prepared as powders by a chemical route, have been investigated. The particle size effect on the Morin transition (TM = 263 K in the bulk system) have been studied by analyzing the temperature dependence of the zero-field-cooled (ZFC) and field-cooled (FC) magnetization. For spherical (average diameter between 10 and 50 nm) and rhombohedral (edge between 30 and 350 nm) particles, the Morin temperature was found to decrease with decreasing particle size and increasing magnetic field. On the other hand, acicular particles (major axis between 300 and 700 nm, minor axis between 70 and 100 nm) do not show the Morin transition, unless annealed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The influence of molecular adsorbate layers on surface plasmon excitation in small supported metal particles has been investigated and exploited to study adsorption reactions on their surfaces. For this purpose sodium nanoclusters on quartz and LiF substrates served as model systems. Their optical transmission spectra are dominated by two maxima which are due to the excitation of surface plasmon resonances in the direction of the long and short axes of the oblate particles. By recording the spectra under ultrahigh-vacuum conditions and, subsequently, after exposure to gases such as O2, N2O, CO2, H2 and N2, changes in the optical spectra can be identified if the clusters are covered by as little as half a molecular monolayer. Depending on the adsorbed molecules, different modifications of the maximum position, the width and the amplitude of the surface plasmon resonances are observed. The results of a series of measurements together with calculations using the quasi-static approximation indicate that the variations in the spectra allow one to distinguish between physisorption and chemisorption, i.e. to characterize the strength of the chemical bond. In addition, diffusion of the molecules into the bulk of the particles can be detected. Particularly interesting is the observation that the clusters can experience a change in their shape if gases such as O2 or CO2 react with their surface. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A method of synthesis of tributyl[113Sn]tin,­(n/C4H9)3113Sn(IV), from commercially avail-­able inorganic 113Sn(IV) is presented. Inorganic tin is first extracted in diethyl ether and reacted with C4H9MgCl to produce tetrabutyltin, (C4H9)4113Sn, which is then debutylated with HgCl2. The resulting tributyl[113Sn]tin chloride is isolated from the reaction mixture by successive extractions with hexane and aqueous Na2S2O3. The yield is 40-60% and the product obtained is 〉98% pure. It has the same specific activity as the starting 113Sn(IV), i.e. up to 550 MBq mg-1 Sn, making it suitable for use in environmental fate and toxicology studies at concentrations relevant of those found in the aquatic environment. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The potential of coupling anion-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography, hydride generation and atomic fluorescence spectrometry (HPLC-HG-AFS) for arsenic speciation is considered. The effects of hydrochloric acid and sodium tetrahydroborate concentrations on signal-to-background ratio, as well as argon and hydrogen flow rates, were investigated. Detection limits for arsenite, dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), monomethylarsonic acid (MMA) and arsenate were 0.17, 0.45, 0.30 and 0.38 μg l-1, respectively, using a 20-μl loop. Linearity ranges were 0.1-500 ng for As(III) and MMA (as arsenic), and 0.1-800 ng for DMA and As(V) (as arsenic). Arsenobetaine (AsB) was also determined by introducing an on-line photo-oxidation step after the chromatographic separation. In this case the limits of detection and linear ranges for the different species studied were similar to the values obtained previously for As(V). The technique was tested with a human urine reference material and a volunteer's sample. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The symmetrization reaction of organomercury(II) chlorides (RHgCl) to R2Hg and HgCl2 in toluene solution under identical conditions using a basic alumina column has been studied­in order to compare the effect of the nature of the R groups on the extent of symmetrization. The efficiency of symmetrization depends markedly on the electron-withdrawing nature of­R, varying from 90-94% for R = trichlorovinyl or phenyl to 11% for R = 2,6-dimethylphenyl.© 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Clusters of iron produced in a laser vaporization source have been characterized with time-of-flight spectra and deposited on different substrates for production of films of varying thickness. The magnetic properties of these films with thicknesses of 60 and 120 nm were investigated using an alternating gradient magnetometer. The films exhibit mono-domain behavior from a broad size distribution which has been confirmed by transmission electron microscopy. Films were also investigated by Mössbauer spectroscopy, which showed fast relaxation in the particles at room temperature. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Chloro-terminated polysulfones with various molecular weights were chemically modified with bis(2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde)copper(II). The properties of modified polysulfones are compared with the unmodified ones, and an increase in glass transition temperatures, softening points and reduced viscosities of the former materials was observed. In addition, the chelate-modified polymers exhibited excellent thermal stability properties and semicrystalline patterns. Also, they provided transparent and flexible films. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The asymmetric alkylation with diethylzinc of five heterocyclic aldehydes and benzaldehyde (for comparison) has been studied in the presence of two optically active amino alcohols: (S)-2-amino-1-butanol (AB) and (1S,2R)-N,N-dibutylnorephedrine (DBNE). A number of chiral (hetero)aromatic secondary alcohols were synthesized in high yields (95-98%) with enantioselectivity up to 92% enantiomeric excess (ee) in the presence of DBNE catalyst. Optically active thienyl and 4-pyridyl derivatives were prepared for the first time by catalytic asymmetric alkylation. The influence of the amount of DBNE on the enantioselectivity was investigated. In contrast to benzaldehyde, 2-furan- and 2-thiophene-carbaldehydes, in the case of 3- and 4-pyridinecarbaldehydes the ee values depend directly on the catalyst concentration. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Total arsenic concentrations and the concentrations of individual arsenic compounds were determined in liver samples of pinnipeds [nine ringed seals (Phoca hispida), one bearded seal (Erginathus barbatus)] and cetaceans [two pilot whales (Globicephalus melas), one beluga whale (Deliphinapterus leucus)]. Total arsenic concentrations ranged from 0.167 to 2.40 mg As kg-1 wet mass. The arsenic compounds extracted from the liver samples with a methanol/water mixture (9:1, v/v) were identified and quantified by anion- and cation-exchange chromatography. An ICP-MS equipped with a hydraulic high-pressure nebulizer served as the arsenic-specific detector. Arsenobetaine (0.052-1.67 mg As kg-1 wet mass) was the predominant arsenic compound in all the liver samples. Arsenocholine was present in all livers (0.005-0.044 mg As kg-1 wet mass). The tetramethylarsonium cation was detected in all pinnipeds (〈0.009 to 0.043 mg As kg-1) but not in any of the cetaceans. The concentration of dimethylarsinic acid ranged from 〈 0.001 to 0.109 mg As kg-1 wet mass. Most of the concentrations for methylarsonic acid (〈0.001 to 0.025 mg As kg-1 wet mass) were below the detection limit. Arsenous acid and arsenic acid concentrations were below the detection limit of the method (0.001 mg As kg-1). An unknown arsenic compound was present in all liver samples at concentrations from 0.002-0.027 mg As kg-1. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Diorganotin(IV) dichloride complexes of the type R2SnCl2·L (R = methyl, ethyl, vinyl, t-butyl, n-butyl or phenyl; L = N-(2-pyridylmethylene)arylamine) have been synthesized and characterized on the basis of IR, NMR and 119Sn Mössbauer studies. Investigation of the complexes indicated that N-(2-pyridylmethylene)arylamines form distorted trans-octahedral complexes with R2SnCl2 similar to the well-known R2SnCl2·L. Cytogenetic toxicology testing has been performed for Et2SnCl2·L4 [L4 = N-(2-pyridylmethylene)-4-toluidine] in mouse bone-marrow cells in vivo since such testing is a regulatory requirement before new drugs are released. This tin compound induced delay in cell-cycle kinetics and sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) significantly. The effect of Et2SnCl2·L4 was greater when endogenous glutathione (GSH) was depleted by buthionine sulphoximine (BSO). It seems that Et2SnCl2·L4 induces SCEs due to formation of adduct by binding on DNA which could interfere in DNA synthesis and cause delay in cell proliferation. Depletion of GSH could reduce the shielding effect of GSH on chromatin and allows more Et2SnCl2·L4 to bind on DNA. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: p-Isopropylbenzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (p-is.TSCN) (1) reacts with [Pt(µ-Cl)(η3-C4H7)]2 to form a dinuclear [Pt(µ-Cl)(p-is.TSCN)]2 complex (2) and a cyclometallated cluster [Pt(p-is.TSCN)]4 (3). Biological testing of these complexes against HL-60 and U-937 human leukemic cells suggest that complexes 2 and 3 may be endowed with important cytotoxic activity properties since they exhibit IC50 values (50% inhibition of cell growth) in the micromolar range, as does the clinically used drug cisplatin (cis-DDP). Analysis of the interaction of compounds 2 and 3 with DNA indicates that the kinetics of DNA platination due to compounds 2 and 3 is faster than that of cisplatin and that after 24 h of incubation most of the platinum centers are bound to DNA. Thus, it is likely that the cytotoxic activity displayed by compounds 2 and 3 may be correlated with their high level of DNA platination. Copyright © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The concentration of tributyltin (TBT) in surface water from Osaka Bay ranged from 0.023 to 0.061 µg l-1 in 1989 and from not detected (ND) to 0.059 µg l-1 in 1990 while the proportion of TBT as a percentage of the total butyltins (BTs) was more than 40%. The concentration of TBT was also surveyed in the Port of Osaka and the Yodo River basin. TBT levels were highest in the estuary (the Port of Osaka), followed by sea areas (Osaka Bay) and rivers (Yodo River basin). A fairly high correlation coefficient between TBT concentration and salinity in water from the estuary and the sea areas was observed. This result shows that the TBT in the estuary water is diluted by seawater. Generally, the TBT concentrations in the water columns were distributed uniformly and the composition of the BTs was also constant. TBT was detected in sediment from Osaka Bay in the range from ND to 0.023 mg kg-1 dry weight with a high ratio of monobutyltin (MBT) to the total BTs. TBT in sediment core was also measured; its concentration decreased with core depth. It was estimated from these measurements that the release of TBT into Osaka Bay began in the 1960s.

    Notes: The complexes formed between the diorganotin(IV) moieties, R2Sn(IV), and the ligand 2-mercaptopyrimidine, (H)SPym, were investigated. Complexes R2SnHal(SPym) and R2Sn(SPym)2 [R = Me, iPr, nBu, iBu, tBu, cyclohexyl(Cy), Ph] were synthesized, and characterized by elemental analysis. In the solid state, chelation of SPym through S and N donors was established by IR spectroscopy, and the nature of the environment of tin centers was investigated by 119Sn Mössbauer spectroscopy. From the dynamics of 119Sn nuclei determined by variable-temperature measurements on representative compounds [Me2SnCl(SPym) and Cy2SnBr(SPym)], as well as by point-charge model treatment of nuclear quadrupole splitting parameters, it was inferred that Me2SnCl-­(SPym) may assume a trans-Me2 octahedral coordination geometry around tin in a monodimensional polymer, or a monomeric trigonal-bipyramidal structure (distorted). The latter type of structure was assigned to the other R2SnHal(SPym) species, while R2Sn(SPym)2 complexes assume a trans-octahedral, or skew trapezoidal, tin environment. In CHCl3-CDCl3 solutions, monomeric species occur (according to vapor-pressure osmometry), where 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopic parameters of SPym indicate the persistence of Sn chelation by S and N donor atoms. The Me2SnCl(SPym) species assume trigonal-bipyramidal structures with a chelating SPym ligand, in CDCl3 and C2H5OH solutions, according to the coupling constants 1J(119Sn,13C), as well as IR and 119Sn Mössbauer spectroscopic data. 119Sn NMR parameters fully correspond with data for the homologous complexes with 2-mercaptopyridine.

    Notes: Bioconcentration of triphenyltin (TPT) and tributyltin (TBT) was studied in the freshwater organisms Daphnia magna (zooplankton), Chironomus riparius (sediment organism) and Thymallus thymallus (fish yolk-sac larvae). TPT bioconcentration factors (BCFs) at pH 8 were highest for Thymallus (2200), followed by Chironomus (680) and Daphnia (190). The differences could not be fully explained by different total lipid contents. Metabolism and lower bioconcentration were observed for TBT in Chironomus. The BCFs of both TBT and TPT were higher at pH 8 than at pH 5, but the difference was much less pronounced than predicted by the octanol-water partition model. This suggests that, besides the hydroxide species (TBTOH and TPTOH), the cations (TBT+ and TPT+) are also taken up by the organisms to some extent and that the octanol-water partition model underestimates the uptake of the charged species. Low concentrations of humic substances (HS) led to small reduction in the bioconcentration of TPT in Daphnia and Thymallus, and a significant reduction occurred at relatively high concentrations of HS (〉10 mg C l-1). The results of this study provide an important basis for future investigations aiming at a better understanding of the bioavailability and fate of TBT and TPT in freshwater ecosystems. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Fifty-two beluga whale samples (Six liver samples, and 46 blubber samples including ones from different depths of the fat layer) from the St Lawrence River, Canada, were analyzed for butyltin compounds (mono-, di-, and tri-butyltin) with a view to investigating the occurrence and contamination of butyltin in these animals. A special procedure was also developed for the determination of butyltin compounds in blubber samples with high lipid content (up to 95%). Total-butyltin concentrations in liver samples were found to be much higher than those in the blubber samples. The concentrations of butyltin compounds in blubber samples were observed to be related to their lipid content. Concentration levels of butyltin species in beluga whale were compared with those in other marine vertebrates in other parts of the world. The presence of butyltin compounds in liver and blubber samples suggests the accumulation of these toxicants by beluga whale. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The effects of freshwater sediment components such as kaolinite, montmorillonite and birnessite (δ-MnO2) on the biomethylation of mercury(II) in a synthetic growth medium (M-IIY) were assessed. Additions of kaolinite or montmorillonite to media containing mercuriC nitrate [Hg(NO3)2; 12 μg Hg ml-1] had no significant effect on either bacterial growth or the production of methylmercury (CH3Hg+). However, whereas the addition of birnessite resulted in only a small (ca 4%) increase in bacterial growth, it also produced a significant decrease (ca 50%) in the production of CH3Hg+. Further, it was demonstrated that, with the exception of kaolinite, adsorption of mercury(II) onto the sediment components before they were added to the M-IIY medium decreased its bioavailability, i.e., the amounts of CH3Hg+ produced from the adsorbed mercury(II) were significantly lower than those produced from equivalent concentrations of Hg(NO3)2 in the absence of the mineral colloids. In the case of montmorillonite, CH3Hg+ production was decreased by 21% relative to the control system. Most striking was the case of birnessite, in which no CH3Hg+ was detected after a 25 h incubation period and only very small quantities of CH3Hg+ (3-7 ng l-1) were present in the medium after 336 h. These data demonstrate that mineral colloids common in freshwater sediments significantly influence the extent of biomethylation of mercury(II) adsorbed on their surfaces. Birnessite, in particular, is a very effective inhibitor of the biomethylation of surface-bound mercury(II). Therefore, it may be possible to reduce the severity of mercury pollution in some aquatic environments by adding a reactive manganese oxide, such as birnessite, to the system and thereby to inhibit the transformation (methylation) of inorganic mercury(II) into the much more toxic CH3Hg+ species. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Organotin contamination of the marine environment can be considered one of the main environmental problems in the last 20 years. Starting from the ‘Arcachon case’, monitoring campaigns have been carried out worldwide in order to evaluate the concentration levels of these compounds in the marine environment. In 1987 the EC Standards, Measurements and Testing Programme (formerly BCR) started a ‘tin speciation’ project to assess and improve the quality of measurements in this field and to make available reference materials. Ten years of study within the framework of this project have produced results in the fields of method development and production of reference materials, particularly for butyltins. The quality of the phenyltin analytical results was lower than for butyltins and further efforts are still needed. To overcome this shortfall, the last certification campaign was aimed towards the certification of phenyltins, as well as butyltins, in a candidate mussel certified Reference Material. The results of the homogeneity and stability tests for phenyltins and of the certification campaign are presented here. The preparation of the material and the analytical methods used in the certification campaigns are also described. The certification of phenyltins was hindered by their lack of long-term stability; nevertheless, the exercise provided information about the state-of-the-art of phenyltin measurements in biological samples. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The synthesis, by two different reaction pathways, of boron-modified polysilylcarbodi-imides of general type {B[C2H4Si(R)NCN]3}n (R =­singly bonded organic ligand) and the plastic-forming and the thermal behavior of these polymers are described. Compounds {B[C2H4Si(R)NCN]3}n [2a, R = H; 2b, R = CH3; 2c, R = (NCN)0.5] can be obtained by treatment of the vinyl-substituted polysilylcarbodi-imides [(H2C=CH)(R)SiNCN]n [1a, R = H; 1b, R = CH3; 1c, R = (NCN)0.5] with borane dimethylsulfide BH3·S(CH3)2. The polysilylcarbodi-imides 1a-1c themselves are accessible via the reaction of vinyl-substituted chlorosilanes (H2C=CH)-­(R)SiCl2 with cyanamide H2N-C≡N in the presence of pyridine or by a non-oxide sol-gel process of vinylated chlorosilanes and bis(trimethylsilyl)carbodi-imide, (H3C)3SiN=C=NSi(CH3)3. In the second method for the synthesis of 2a-2c, hydroboration of vinyl-substituted chlorosilanes (H2C=CH)(R)SiCl2 with borane dimethylsulfide, borane trimethylamide or borane triethylamide to yield the tris[(chlorosilyl)ethyl]boranes B[C2H4Si(R)Cl2]3 (3a, R = H; 3b, R = CH3; 3c, R = Cl) is followed by treatment of the as-obtained compounds with bis(trimethylsilyl)carbodi-imide, which results in the formation of the hydroborated polysilylcarbodi-imides 2a-2c. The thermogravimetric behavior of the polymers 1a-1c and 2a-2c up to 2300°C is reported. It is shown that boron-modified polysilylcarbodi-imides are suitable precursors for the preparation of dense bulk ceramics. Therefore, the preparation of green bodies of the hydroborated polysilylcarbodi-imides 2a-2c by plastic forming (PF) is described. A series of experiments points to the fact that the microstructure of the as-obtained ceramic monoliths obtained by subsequent thermolysis of the plastic-formed green bodies is strongly influenced by the conditions during plastic forming. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Cubic silsesquioxanes, [RSiO1.5]x, potentially offer access to organic/inorganic hybrids wherein the exact shape, size and mechanical properties of the inorganic component are perfectly defined. Furthermore, by tailoring the organic functionality bound to silicon, the inorganic/organic interface can also be perfectly defined. Finally, careful selection of the polymerizable groups in the organic moieties can provide good-to-excellent control of the crosslinked density or degree of polymerization of the resulting hybrid materials. Thus, cubic silsesquioxanes may be exceptional model materials for inorganic/organic hybrids. Methods of synthesizing cubes with liquid-crystalline and/or polymerizable organic moieties are described. Some thermal properties are discussed. The catalytic copolymerization of the octavinyldimethylsiloxy-functionalized cube with the octahydridodimethyl-­siloxy-functionalized cube to produce a material with well-defined microporosity and high surface area is described. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Polymer nanocomposites, especially polymer-layered silicate (PLS) nanocomposites, represent a radical alternative to conventionally (macroscopically) filled polymers. Because of their nanometer-size dispersion, the nanocomposites exhibit markedly improved properties when compared with the pure polymers or conventional composites. These include increased modulus and strength, decreased gas permeability, increased solvent and heat resistance and decreased flammability. In addition to their potential applications, PLS nanocomposites are also unique model systems to study the structure and dynamics of polymers in confined environments. Using both delaminated and intercalated hybrids, the statics and dynamics of polymers confined over distances ranging from the radius of gyration of the polymer to the statistical segment length of the chains can be studied. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The rearrangement reaction of an organocobalt polymer with cobaltacyclopentadiene moieties in the main chain (1) was carried out to yield a­new polymer bearing (η5-cyclopentadienyl) (η4-­cyclobutadiene)cobalt moieties in the main chain (2). For instance, a polymer (2) containing pure η4-cyclobutadienecobalt units was obtained as a yellow powder in 79% yield by the reaction of 1 in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at 110 °C for 1 h in a sealed tube. The polymer (2) obtained was soluble in organic solvents such as chloroform, THF and N,N-dimethylformamide and was quite stable under air. It showed good thermal stability and a weight loss of 5% was observed at 482 °C by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). On the other hand, displacement of the triphenylphosphine ligands on the main chain of the organocobalt polymer (1), without rearrangement of the cobaltacyclopentadiene rings, was observed when the reaction was carried out in the presence of appropriate ligands such as P(n-Bu)3. The resulting ligand-exchanged polymer showed different properties in comparison with 1. For instance a polymer bearing tri-n-octylphosphine is soluble in n-hexane, which is a poor solvent for 1. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The preparation of organic-inorganic polymer hybrids consisting of carbon-carbon and siloxane chains was investigated by radical polymerization of 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MAS) followed by acid-catalyzed hydrolytic polycondensation. The condensation of poly(3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane) (S-PMA) of various molecular weights Mn =830-12000 prepared by polyaddition provided transparent and flexible free-standing hybrid gel films. The mechanical properties of these films were highly dependent on the carbon-carbon chain length: with an increase in the carbon-carbon chain length, the elasticity of gel films increased, while the tensile strength and Young's modulus decreased. Hydrolyzability of S-PMA decreased with an increase in the carbon-carbon chain length, resulting in the formation of rubber-like films with flexibility. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Homogeneous poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-silica gel polymer hybrids were prepared by in-situ hydrolysis of poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) in a sol-gel reaction mixture with tetramethoxysilane (TMOS). The degree of hydrolysis was evaluated by FTIR and 13C CP/MAS NMR; it increased with an increase in the acid catalyst and reached 85% with 1.6 ml of 0.1 M HCl. The homogeneity of the polymer hybrids obtained was maintained when the reaction was performed at 60 °C. However, the polymer hybrid became turbid with an increase of the amount of catalyst present when the reaction was conducted at room temperature. The homogeneity of the polymer hybrids obtained was evaluated by nitrogen sorption porosimetry of a porous silica that was obtained by charring the PVA hybrid. The results confirmed the molecular-level dispersion of the PVA in the hybrid. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The grafting of polymers onto a carbon black surface based on the trapping of polymer radicals by polycondensed aromatic rings of the surface was investigated. It was found that polymer radicals formed by the thermal decomposition of azo-polymer, peroxy-polymer and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyl-1-oxy-terminated polymer are successfully captured by a carbon black surface to give the corresponding polymer-grafted carbon blacks. The grafting of polymers onto carbon black was also achieved by the trapping of polymer radicals formed by the redox reaction of ceric ions with polymers having hydroxyl groups. It was concluded that surface grafting of polymers onto carbon black is effective when there are few functional groups. The electrical resistance of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)-grafted carbon black thus obtained is increased drastically to about 104-105 times the initial resistance at the melting point of PEO. This may be due to a widening of the gaps between the carbon black particles by melting of PEO. In addition, it was found that the electrical resistance of a crystalline poly(ethylene imine) (PEI)-grafted carbon black drastically increased to 103-104 times the initial resistance in methanol, ethanol and water vapor, but hardly any change in electrical resistance was observed in n-hexane or toluene vapor. These results suggest the possibility of detecting a slight change in the crystalline structure of PEI upon absorption of solvent vapor as a large increase in the electrical resistance of the polymer-grafted carbon black. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: An analytical procedure for the determination of phenyltin compounds in environmental sample waters was studied. Chromatography of mono-, di- tri-phenyltin (MPT, DPT and TPT) was performed on a reversed-phase C18 column with the mobile phase comprising methanol/10-2 M H3PO4 (80:20 v/v) at pH 3 and UV detection at 214 nm. To enhance the sensitivity of the detection system, the post-column reaction between morin or 3-hydroxyflavone and phenyltin compounds was formed before fluorescence detection. Several parameters affecting the fluorescence intensity were studied systematically, including the optimum condition for the post-column reagent that was also compatible with the eluent. The parameters concerned in this study were the pH, the percentage of Triton X-100, the ratio of fluorigenic reagent to phenyltin compounds and the amount of methanol in the eluent. Detection limits before the preconcentration process were in the region of 1.5 ppb for TPT and 150-250 ppb for MPT and DPT, respectively. Utilizing solid-phase extraction on a C18 cartridge for sample clean-up as well as preconcentration successfully reduced the detection limit of TPT to the level of ng dm-3 and can be applied to seawater analysis. Recovery in the range 95.0-98.0% was obtained by developing the optimum elution profile in the preconcentration step. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Triphenyltin(IV) compounds of p-ethoxybenzoic acid and acetylsalicylic acid contain molecular units with Sn-O bonds and distorted tetrahedral tin centers. The phthalic acid derivative contains two four-coordinate tin atoms between which the phthalic acid unit effectively forms a bridge. The salicylaldehydato compound is polymeric with trigonal bipyramidal tin centers in which the phenyl groups take equatorial positions. The polymerization occurs via the aldehyde oxygen atom bonding to a neighboring tin atom. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: In the interest of developing a more effective fungicide to combat Dutch elm disease, our laboratories have synthesized several triphenyltin carboxylates and some 1:1 addition compounds of triphenyltin chloride using 2,3-disubstituted thiazolidin-4-ones as the ligand and screened them in vitro against Ceratocystis ulmi, the causative agent of Dutch elm disease, using a shake culture method. Elemental analyses and spectroscopic data indicate that the structures of the carboxy- lates in the solid state are monomeric with a tetrahedral tin atom with the exception of the furan-2-carboxylic acid derivative, which was found to be polymeric. The triphenyltin chloride adducts are trigonal-bipyramidal with the three phenyl groups in the equatorial plane. Far-infrared data indicate that the three phenyl groups are not co-planar. Screening results for both series of organotins indicate that these two classes of compounds are effective inhibitors of Ceratocystis ulmi, with the adducts having a higher activity. The furan-2-carboxylic acid derivative has a markedly decreased activity compared with the other carboxylates and this is attributed to its polymeric structure. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Diorganotin(IV) and diorganosilicon(IV) derivatives of the types R2MCl(TSCZ) and R2M(TSCZ)2 (where TSCZ is the anion of a thiosemicarbazone ligand, R=Ph or Me and M=Sn or Si) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight determinations and conductivity measurements. The mode of bonding has been established on the basis of IR and 1H, 13C 29Si and 119Sn NMR spectroscopic studies. Some of the representative complexes have also been evaluated for their antimicrobial effects on different species of pathogenic fungi and bacteria in vivoas well as in vitro.The results of these investigations are reported. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
