Abstract: Understanding how sediment concentrations vary with land use/cover is critical for evaluating the current and future impacts of human activities on river systems. This paper presents suspended sediment concentration (SSC) dynamics and the relationship between SSC and discharge (Q) in the 8973 km2 Du catchment and its sub-catchment (4635 km2). In the Du catchment and its sub-catchment, 4235 and 3980 paired SSC–Q samples, respectively, were collected over 30 years. Under the influence of the Household Contract Responsibility System and Grain-for-Green projects in China, three periods were designated, the original period (1980s), cultivation period (1990s) and reforestation period (2000s). The results of a Mann–Kendall test showed that rainfall slightly increased during the study years; however, the annual discharge and sediment load significantly decreased. The annual suspended sediment yield of the Du catchment varied between 1.3 × 108 and 1.0 × 1010 kg, and that of the sub-catchment varied between 6.3 × 107 and 4.3 × 109 kg. The SSCs in the catchment and sub-catchment fluctuated between 1 and 22400 g m−3 and between 1 and 31800 g m−3, respectively. The mean SSC of the Du catchment was relatively stable during the three periods (±83 g m−3). ANOVA (analysis of variance) indicated that the SSC did not significantly change under cultivation for low and moderate flows, but was significantly different under high flow during reforestation of the Du catchment. The SSC in the sub-catchment was more variable, and the mean SSC in the sub-catchment varied from 1058 ± 2217 g m−3 in the 1980s to 1256 ± 2496 g m−3 in the 1990s and 891 ± 1558 g m−3 in the 2000s. Reforestation significantly decreased the SSCs during low and moderate flows, whereas cultivation increased the SSCs during high flow. The sediment rating curves showed a stable relationship between the SSC and Q in the Du catchment during the three periods. However, the SSC–Q of the sub-catchment exhibited scattered relationships during the original and cultivation periods and a more linear relationship during the reforestation period.

Abstract: The halophyte Thellungiella salsuginea is a new model plants due to its small genome size, short life cycle, and copious seed production. Although T. salsuginea shares a high sequence identity with its close relative Arabidopsis thaliana, it shows a greater tolerance to salinity, drought, freezing, heat, and cold. To elucidate the mechanism of abiotic stress resistance in T. salsuginea, we characterized its cytosolic Apx1 gene (TsApx1) and established A. thaliana transgenic lines overexpressing TsApx1. Under 300 mM NaCl, the content of H2O2, malondialdehyde, and proline were lower and the activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and ascorbate peroxidase were all higher in the transgenic plants overexpressing TsApx1 (35S:TsApx1-GFP) than in the wild-type plants. The atapx1 mutant plants of A. thaliana had a NaCl/mannitol-sensitive phenotype. The ectopic expression of TsApx1 in the atapx1 mutant effectively remedied the phenotype. These results suggest that TsApx1 plays an important role in scavenging reactive oxygen species in the cytoplasm under salinity or drought. Although TsApx1 in T. salsuginea was constantly expressed at a high level, this gene was clearly inducible. In summary, the high constitutive expression and rapid induction of TsApx1 may contribute to the tolerance to abiotic stresses in T. salsuginea.

Subjects: food and beverages, complex mixtures
Abstract: Climate change is expected to affect plant communities worldwide. However, less is known about the consequences of global warming-induced decrease of soil moisture on alpine wetland ecosystem in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. To determine response of natural alpine wetland community to decrease of soil moisture, we did a gradient analysis of soil moisture by sequence space-series variation. We used sequence space-series variation of soil moisture to reflect potential time-series variation of soil moisture in alpine wetland community, by examining the effects of spatial heterogeneity of soil moisture on wetland community, as well as by determining how shifts in above- and below-ground properties of alpine wetland community. We found that vegetation aboveground biomass, cover and height all significantly increased with increase of soil moisture, but species richness was decreased. Soil organic carbon, total nitrogen, available nitrogen, total phosphorus and available phosphorus all significantly increased with increase of soil moisture, but soil pH value, total potassium and available potassium were significantly decreased. Meanwhile, species richness showed significantly positive correlations to aboveground biomass, covers and height. Aboveground biomass, vegetation covers and height were all significant positively related to soil organic carbon, total N, P, and available N, P, but negatively related to total K. But, species richness were significant negatively related to soil organic carbon, total N, P, and available N, P, but positively related to total K. Our observation indicates that decreasing of soil moisture may potentially negatively impact on the above- and below-ground properties in alpine wetland community.

Abstract: To address the issue of water eutrophication and to use water more effectively, we conducted experiments on rice (Oryza sativa L.) grown in floating culture. From 2009 to 2011, we compared the photosynthesis and root characteristics of the rice, hybrid line Zhuliangyou 02, grown under a conventional tillage and in a floating culture in Huaihua, the home of hybrid rice. Rice in the floating culture showed a higher net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance than that under the conventional tillage. The activities of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase and NADP-malic enzyme were 32 and 28% higher, respectively, in rice in the floating culture than under the conventional tillage. Rice in the floating culture also showed significantly greater number of roots, root activity, and antioxidant enzyme activity than that under the conventional tillage. Compared with rice under the conventional tillage, rice in the floating culture had 18 and 24% higher tiller number and effective panicle number, respectively. These results suggested that the floating culture system can promote rice production through enhancing root absorption, increasing effective panicle number, and improving the photosynthetic rate. In addition, rice cultivated in the floating culture could remove excess nutrients from water, which addresses the problems of a lack of arable land and water pollution.

Abstract: Glioma is the most common form of brain tumor, accounting for over 50% of all primary tumors. Despite progress in the treatment of glioma, the prognosis is still poor. In this study, we examined protein-tyrosine phosphatase H1 (PTPH1) in human gliomas.Cell growth potential was measured by CCK-8 assay and colony formation. Cell cycle distribution was measured by flow cytometry. Transwell assay was used to detect the motility of tumor cells. Real-time PCR and Western blot were used to measure the mRNA and protein expression of indicated genes. Xenograft model was established to measure the role of PTPH1 in vivo.The expression of PTPH1 was significantly higher in the tumor tissues as compared with that in the adjacent normal tissues. Knockdown of PTPH1 significantly slowed cell proliferation and reduced colony formation abilities in glioma cell lines U87 and U251. Additionally, knockdown of PTPH1 caused cell cycle arrest in the S-phase. Furthermore, depletion of PTPH1 in glioma U87 cells significantly limited tumor growth in a xenograft model. Interestingly, knockdown of PTPH1 also decreased cell migration abilities in both U87 and U251 cells. Accordingly, matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) was also decreased upon knockdown of PTPH1 in both cell lines. Moreover, we found that phosphorylated MEK (p-MEK) and phosphorylated MAPK (p-MAPK) were both decreased, whereas the total levels of MEK and MAPK remained unchanged after depletion of PTPH1 in both cell lines.Our data suggest that PTPH1 may be a novel biomarker that indicates the aggressiveness of gliomas. Targeting PTPH1 might be a promising strategy for the treatment of gliomas.

Subjects: uranium, Electrokinetic remediation, complex mixtures, ion exchange membranes, soil
Abstract: The contamination of significant quantities of soils and sediments with uranium and other actinide elements as a result of nuclear activity poses many environmental risks. The electrokinetic process is one of the most promising remediation techniques for sludge, sediment, and saturated or unsaturated soils contaminated with heavy metals and radionuclides. However, secondary waste is a major concern for soil contaminated with nuclides. To minimize the generation of secondary wastes, this study used the anion and cation exchange membranes to improve the performance of the experimental apparatus. Remediation experiments of uranium-contaminated soil were performed with different agents. The results show that using acetic acid and EDTA as chelating agents clearly enhances the migration ability of the uranium. The ion exchange membranes (IEMs) used in the experiments not only reduce secondary wastes, but also, keep the soil pH stable., {"references":["D. Ribera, F. Labrot, G. Tisnerat, J.F.

Abstract: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the leading cause of joint pain and disability in middle-aged and elderly patients, and is characterized by progressive loss of articular cartilage that eventually leads to a complex process involving degradation of various components of the cartilage matrix, chief among them are the cartilage-specific type II collagen (CII) and aggrecan. While the loss of aggrecan is thought to be an early and reversible process, degradation of CII is considered to be irreversible and a key step in the loss of structural and functional integrity of cartilage. Among the various matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), MMP-13 is specifically expressed in the cartilage of human OA patients and is not present in normal adult cartilage. It is the major collagenase in OA cartilage and has the highest activity against CII. However, the clinical utility of broad-spectrum MMP inhibitors developed for treatment of OA has been restricted by dose- and duration-dependent musculoskeletal side effects in humans. Consequently, selectively inhibiting the MMP-13 would seem to be an attractive therapeutic objective. This review mainly focuses on selective MMP-13 inhibitors development in terms of OA since the late 90s, in terms of synthetic compounds of low molecular mass incorporating specific zinc-binding groups, non-zinc-binding groups. In addition, dual inhibitors of MMP-13 and aggrecanase are also reviewed. Special emphasis is placed on logistic concerns for lead compound search as well as the structure-activity relationship (SAR) in this field. Through these methods, new hope is emerging for the treatment of OA through selective inhibition of MMP-13.

Abstract: Disruption of neuronal iron homeostasis and oxidative stress are closely related to the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Ginkgetin, a natural biflavonoid isolated from leaves of Ginkgo biloba L, has many known effects, including anti-inflammatory, anti-influenza virus, and anti-fungal activities, but its underlying mechanism of the neuroprotective effects in PD remains unclear. The present study utilized PD models induced by 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP(+)) and 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1, 2, 3, 6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) to explore the neuroprotective ability of ginkgetin in vivo and in vitro. Our results showed that ginkgetin could provide significant protection from MPP(+)-induced cell damage in vitro by decreasing the levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species and maintaining mitochondrial membrane potential. Meanwhile, ginkgetin dramatically inhibited cell apoptosis induced by MPP+ through the caspase-3 and Bcl2/Bax pathway. Moreover, ginkgetin significantly improved sensorimotor coordination in a mouse PD model induced by MPTP by dramatically inhibiting the decrease of tyrosine hydroxylase expression in the substantia nigra and superoxide dismutase activity in the striatum. Interestingly, ginkgetin could strongly chelate ferrous ion and thereby inhibit the increase of the intracellular labile iron pool through downregulating L-ferritin and upregulating transferrin receptor 1. These results indicate that the neuroprotective mechanism of ginkgetin against neurological injury induced by MPTP occurs via regulating iron homeostasis. Therefore, ginkgetin may provide neuroprotective therapy for PD and iron metabolism disorder related diseases.

Abstract: Interspecific competition between Diadegma semiclausum and Cotesia plutellae was investigated at 25°C in the laboratory, by exposing the third instar larvae of the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella to both species together, either species alone or by exposing the host larvae already parasitized by one species, at different intervals, to the other. When host larvae were exposed simultaneously to two species in one arena, parasitism rates of the host by each species were not reduced by the presence of the other species; joint parasitism rate by two species was not significantly higher than that by either parasitoid alone. Both parasitoids could lay eggs into the host larvae which had previously been parasitized by the other species, leading to the occurrence of multiparasitized hosts. When host larvae were parasitized first by D. semiclausum and then being followed within 1–2 h by exposing to C. plutellae, or vice versa, ensuing parasitoid cocoons from the multiparasitized host larvae were nearly all C. plutellae. When host larvae were parasitized initially by C. plutellae and then being followed by D. semiclausum two or more days later, all parasitoids ensued from the multiparasitized hosts were C. plutellae. In contrast, when host larvae were parasitized initially by D. semiclausum and then being followed by C. plutellae two or more days later, most host larvae could not survive to prepupae and most of the ensuing parasitoid adults from the surviving hosts were D. semiclausum. Dissections of host larvae at various time intervals after parasitization by the two parasitoids showed that development of both parasitoids in multiparasitized hosts were somewhat arrested, and that the first instar larvae of C. plutellae could initiate a physical attack on the larvae of D. semiclausum and remove the latter.

Abstract: The branching fraction of Z → b b relative to all hadronic decays of the Z has been measured using event shape variables to preferentially select Z → b b events. The method chosen applies a combination of shape discriminators and the selection of high transverse momentum leptons to event hemispheres. From a sample of 440 000 hadronic Z decays collected with the ALEPH detector at LEP, the ration Γ b b Γ had = 0.228±0.005( stat. )±0.005( syst. ) is measured.

Abstract: Despite progress of medical, the fast and accurate diagnosis of tuberculous pleuritis (TP) continues to be a challenge, mainly because of the lack of specific clinical features and the difficulty in isolating the Mycobacterium tuberculosis.To investigate the role of medical thoracoscopy in definite diagnosis of tuberculous pleuritis, especially the feature of visual diagnosis in tuberculous pleuritis via medical thoracoscopy. We performed a retrospective review of the utility of medical thoracoscopy in tuberculous pleuritis.A retrospective chart review was performed of 91 patients who had medical thoracoscopy for suspected TP at the Second Xiangya Hospital from October 1, 2006 to July 30, 2012.In ninety one cases, 76 patients were diagnosed with TP by pathologic diagnosis. The visual findings via thoracoscopy of 76 TP patients included the following: (1) necrosis (76.32%, n=58), (2) diffuse miliary nodules (64.67%, n=49), (3) single or multiple pleural nodules (14.47%, n=11), (4) hyperemic, edematous and thickened pleura (56.58%, n=43), and (5) pleural adhesions or fibrotic septa (78.95%, n=60), and all of these samples had hydrothorax or loculated effusion. The diagnostic efficiency of visual diagnosis via medical thoracoscopy about tuberculous pleuritis was 93.41%. In the non-invasive test, ADA40 u/l with LDH200 u/l for TP showed relatively high sensitivity and specificity (73.68%, 80.00%, respectively).TP presents a variety of scopic phenotypes under medical thoracoscopy. The experienced pulmonologists visually diagnose TP efficiently and directly via medical thoracoscopy. Medical thoracoscopy with combined biopsy is an accurate and safe method for diagnosing TP.

Abstract: The thermal degradation of cotton cellulose treated with chemical mixtures containing P and N was studied by thermal analysis, infrared spectroscopy, Char yield and limiting-oxygen-index (LOI). Our experiments demonstrated the following facts. The temperatures and activation energies of pyrolysis were lower for cotton cellulose treated with flame retardants than those for untreated samples and the values of Char yield and LOI were greater for treated cotton than those for untreated one.

Abstract: The thermal degradation of wool treated with flame-retardant reagents synthesized in our laboratory, namely, (NH4)3H2PO4 [Al(H2PO4)5], (NH4)3Cl[Ca(H2PO4)4], (NH4)3Cl [Mg(H2PO4)4], (NH4)3H2PO4[Zn(H2PO4)4], K(NH4)2Cl[Zn(H2PO4)4], Na3Cl[Zn(H2PO4)4] and H3PO4[Zn(H2PO4)2] was studied by thermal analysis, infrared spectroscopy and by measurement of the limiting oxygen index (LOI). The kinetic parameters were obtained using the equations of Brodio and Kissinger. The activation energies were calculated for the decomposition of untreated wool and wool treated with flame-retardant reagents. Experimental data showed that for the wool treated with flame-retardant reagents there were increases in char yield and LOI, and decreases in the activation energy and the temperature of decomposition.

Abstract: In Part II of this series of publications, the first generation model of morphology evolution during polymer blending in a twin-screw extruder was presented. The model was based on a simplified flow analysis, and an assumption that dispersion occurs via drop fibrillation followed by disintegration. In the present Part IV, several modifications of the model are discussed. (i) The flow analysis was refined by computing the pressure profiles. (ii) The flow paths and strain history of the dispersed droplets within the screw elements are computed directly, which makes it possible to determine the drop susceptibility to deformation and break. (iii) Besides the fibrillation mechanism, a drop-splitting mechanism for low supercritical capillary numbers is incorporated. (iv) The choice of breakup mechanism is based on micro-rheological criteria. (v) The coalescence effects are taken into account. (vi) The theoretical model is self-consistent, without adjustable parameters. The validity of theoretical assumptions was evaluated by comparing the model predictions with the experimental droplet diameters at different positions in the twin-screw extruder

Abstract: In 2008 we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, research on this topic has continued to accelerate, and many new scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Accordingly, it is important to update these guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Various reviews have described the range of assays that have been used for this purpose. Nevertheless, there continues to be confusion regarding acceptable methods to measure autophagy, especially in multicellular eukaryotes. A key point that needs to be emphasized is that there is a difference between measurements that monitor the numbers or volume of autophagic elements (e.g., autophagosomes or autolysosomes) at any stage of the autophagic process vs. those that measure flux through the autophagy pathway (i.e., the complete process); thus, a block in macroautophagy that results in autophagosome accumulation needs to be differentiated from stimuli that result in increased autophagic activity, defined as increased autophagy induction coupled with increased delivery to, and degradation within, lysosomes (in most higher eukaryotes and some protists such as Dictyostelium) or the vacuole (in plants and fungi). In other words, it is especially important that investigators new to the field understand that the appearance of more autophagosomes does not necessarily equate with more autophagy. In fact, in many cases, autophagosomes accumulate because of a block in trafficking to lysosomes without a concomitant change in autophagosome biogenesis, whereas an increase in autolysosomes may reflect a reduction in degradative activity. Here, we present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macroautophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes. These guidelines are not meant to be a formulaic set of rules, because the appropriate assays depend in part on the question being asked and the system being used. In addition, we emphasize that no individual assay is guaranteed to be the most appropriate one in every situation, and we strongly recommend the use of multiple assays to monitor autophagy. In these guidelines, we consider these various methods of assessing autophagy and what information can, or cannot, be obtained from them. Finally, by discussing the merits and limits of particular autophagy assays, we hope to encourage technical innovation in the field. © 2012 Landes Bioscience.

Abstract: A high-field superconducting magnet can provide both high-magnetic fields and large-field gradients, which can be used as a special environment for research or practical applications in materials processing, life science studies, physical and chemical reactions, etc. To make full use of a superconducting magnet, shared instruments (the operating platform, sample holders, temperature controller, and observation system) must be prepared as prerequisites. This paper introduces the design of a set of sample holders and a temperature controller in detail with an emphasis on validating the performance of the force and temperature sensors in the high-magnetic field.

Abstract: Studies on thermal fatigue in 3Cr2W8V die steel have been carried out by using positron lifetime and microhardness measurements. It is found that the mean positron lifetime and the microhardness exhibit periodic up-and-down variations with an increase in the number of fatigue cycles. The experiments indicate that in the process of thermal fatigue there are two opposing effects on variation of defects: microdeformation and dynamic recovery and recrystallization.

24. Development of polymer blend morphology during compounding in a twin-screw extruder. Part I: Droplet dispersion and coalescence?a review

Subjects: Coalescence (physics), chemistry.chemical_classification, Materials science, Polymers and Plastics, General Chemistry, Polymer, Breakup, eye diseases, Capillary number, Physics::Fluid Dynamics, chemistry, Materials Chemistry, Newtonian fluid, Polymer blend, Elasticity (economics), Composite material, Dimensionless quantity
Abstract: The theoretical and experimental data on the breakup of droplets are reviewed. Several factors influence development of droplets: flow type and its intensity, viscosity ratio, elasticity of polymers, composition, thermodynamic interactions, time, etc. For Newtonian systems undergoing small, linear deformation, both the viscosity ratio and the capillary number control deformability of drops. On the other hand, the breakup process can be described by the dimensionless breakup time and the critical capillary number. Drops are more efficiently broken in elongational flow than in shear, especially when the viscosity ratio λ ⩾ 3. The drop deformation and breakup seems to be more difficult in viscoelastic systems than in Newtonian ones. There is no theory able to describe the deformability of viscoelastic droplet suspended in a viscoelastic or even Newtonian medium. The effect of droplets coalescence on the final morphology ought to be considered, even at low concentration of the dispersed phase, ϕd ⩾ 0.005. Several drop breakup and coalescence theories were briefly reviewed. However, they are of little direct use for quantitative prediction of the polymer blend morphology during compounding in a twin‐screw extruder. Their value is limited to serving as general guides to the process modeling.

25. Quantitative variation and biosynthesis of hindgut volatiles associated with the red turpentine beetle, Dendroctonus valens LeConte, at different attack phases

Abstract: The red turpentine beetle (RTB), Dendroctonus valens LeConte, is a destructive invasive forest pest in China. For such tree-killing species, how to initiate a volatile-mediated mass attack is of great importance during the course of establishment. To understand the hindgut volatile production mechanism underlying mass attack initiated by RTB, coupled gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and 13C-labelled precursors were applied to explore the quantitative variation and biosynthesis of volatiles associated with RTB at different attack phases. Five previously described volatiles, trans-verbenol, myrtenol, cis-verbenol, myrtenal and verbenone, were identified and quantified from extracts of female and male hindguts, with the first two compounds as the major components and the latter three as minor constituents. In newly emerged females and males, only minute amounts of these compounds were detected. The quantity of volatiles from female adults significantly increased after they fed on bolts. Male adults also yielded larger quantities of volatiles after they joined females in galleries, which suggested that RTB males could accelerate the mass colonization on host trees. We also confirmed that RTB produced the five volatiles through oxidizing the major host monoterpene, α-pinene, but not synthesized de novo since products were labeled without 13C. The implication of this study in understanding the successful invasion of RTB is discussed.

Subjects: Polypropylene, Polymers and Plastics, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Minor (linear algebra), Analytical chemistry, Thermodynamics, Composition (combinatorics), Inorganic Chemistry, chemistry.chemical_compound, Stationary phase, Materials Chemistry, Inverse gas chromatography, Molecule, Spurious relationship
Abstract: The dependence of thermodynamic parameters for mixed stationary phases on the selection of vapor probes is studied. A critical portion of the problem is attributed to the spurious assumption that the surface composition of a mixed stationary phase is identical with its bulk composition. A method is proposed to correct for differences in these compositions. A second contributing factor to the probe dependence of IGC data, the nonrandom partitioning of vapor-phase molecules, is also examined, using a characteristic two-component stationary phase consisting of a polypropylene host and a minor amount of fluorochemical additive

Abstract: The branching fraction of Z --> bb relative to all hadronic decays of the Z has been measured using event shape variables to preferentially select Z --> bb events. The method chosen applies a combination of shape discriminators and the selection of high transverse momentum leptons to event hemispheres. From a sample of 440 000 hadronic Z decays collected with the ALEPH detector at LEP, the ration Γbb/Γhad = 0.228+/-0.005(stat.)+/-0.005(syst.) is measured.

28. Study on the retention behaviour of metal-tetraphenyl porphine chelates in reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography

Abstract: The retention behaviour of metal chelates of alpha,beta,gamma,delta-tetraphenylporphine (TPP) was studied in reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). On C18 column, with various organic solvents as mobile phases, the retention of the chelates tends to increase in the following order: ZnTPPTPPNiTPPCuTPP. This retention behaviour can get a good explanation from Horvath's "solvophobic theory". With the assumption that the electrostatic field strength of metal chelates can be measured by the ratio of electronegativity vs. ionic radius (EN/ri) of central metal ion, EN/ri was established to be an index for the retention behaviour of metal-TPP chelates. It was found that lnk' is in good linear relationship with the EN/ri value.

Abstract: Integrated process and device simulations were performed to design sub-100 nm strained-Si/Si/sub 75/Ge/sub 25/ devices. The process and device models were carefully calibrated according to various physical and electrical device characterizations. It is observed that the dopant behavior is highly sensitive to the presence of the SSi/SiGe heterointerface, especially when the SSi thickness is reduced below 10 nm. This points to SSi thickness as a new source of process variation and careful control of the SSi layer is important to maintain consistent device performance. In addition, the Type-II energy-band alignment at the heterointerface also contributes strongly to the short-channel device behavior. This work illustrates the need for accurate heterostructure-based process and device models in order to simulate and design aggressively-scaled strained-Si devices.

Abstract: Twenty patients with liver malignant tumors who were treated by hepatic artery occlusion previously, were treated with additional hepatic infusion or embolization though extrahepatic collaterals. Twenty eight courses of hepatic infusion were performed in 14 patients through the right phrenic artery, collaterals of the proper hepatic artery, collaterals of the superior mesenteric and the pancreaticoduodenal arcades, collaterals of the celiac artery, gastroduodenal artery and left gastric artery. Nine hepatic embolization procedures were performed in 5 patients through the right phrenic artery, collaterals of the proper hepatic artery, gastroduodenal artery and collaterals of right renal artery. No complication related to the treatment procedures occurred in this group. The 1-year and 2-year survival rates were 60% and 10%, respectively.

Abstract: In Part II of the work, the intermeshing twin-screw extruder is briefly described and the theoretical procedures used to model its operation are summarized. Based on the microrheological considerations discussed in Part I, a predictive procedure of the morphology evolution during compounding of two immiscible polymers is proposed. In this first generation model, only the shear flow effects are considered. Furthermore, to avoid complications due to coalescence a low concentration of the dispersed phase was assumed. In the procedure, two drop breakup mechanisms are discussed. The first assumes that the drops do not break under flow while the second postulates that breakup occurs under flow. Two dispersion mechanisms are considered, the first postulating continuously increasing polydispersity of drop size and the second postulating that drop polydispersity is inversely proportional to deformation strain. The influence of the screw configuration and operating conditions on blend morphology evolution is studied. It is expected that the computed drop size distribution provides limiting values for the experimental data. Dependency of predicted morphology on operating conditions is also investigated. Increasing screw rotating speed (resulting in increasing energy consumption) and decreasing throughput (resulting in decreasing productivity) lead to prediction of finer drop size. In practice, therefore, a compromise would be required. The proposed procedure is limited to melt flow (excluding the die region) within the region of large capillary parameter values, k > 4kcrit.

Abstract: Currently, selection of screw configurations as well as the operating conditions for compounding polymer blends with desired morphology in a co‐rotating twinscrew extruder is an art based on experience. In this paper a quenching section of a twin‐screw extruder is described. The section may replace any segment of the extruder barrel. It allows, on the one hand, a regular operation of the machine, and on the other, a rapid quenching and removal of blend specimens for morphology analysis from any place along the extruder barrel and at any time of the blending. The experimental observation of development during compounding of polymer blends enables verification and improvement of the theoretical model, aimed at predicting and controlling the size and polydispersity of the minor phase. Development of the predictive model for blend morphology will provide a valuable guide to the polymer processing industry. The preliminary data were collected using polystyrene/high density polyethylene (PS/HDPE) blends at low concentration of the dispersed phase, 5 wt% of either PS or HDPE. It was observed that the viscosity ratio, blend composition, screw configuration, temperature, throughput, and screw speed significantly influence the blend morphology.

Abstract: Red bayberry (Myrica rubra Sieb. et Zucc) is a special fruit produced in southeastern China. Heavy losses due to postharvest rot and short shelf-life have negatively affected farmers' incomes. In June 2007, a survey was conducted to determine the causal agents of red bayberry (cv. Dongkui) rot in Linhai City, Zhejiang Province. Only a few soft rot fruits with typical gray mold of Botrytis cinerea were found on trees, but 74% (266 of 360) of the fruits that appeared disease free during harvest showed a mass of gray mold after 5 days in storage at 22°C. Brown conidiophores bore botryose heads of hyaline, ellipsoid, unicellular conidia, measuring 9.1 to 16.1 × 8.6 to 11.0 μm. Mycelia were initially whitish and turned gray with age. Black, irregular sclerotia were formed in potato dextrose agar medium. Such features suggested B. cinerea infection (1). Pathogenicity was confirmed by inoculation of 20 healthy red bayberries with a conidial suspension (106/ml); 100% were infected and masses of gray mold were formed 4 days after inoculation. No mock-inoculated fruits were infected. To confirm involvement of B. cinerea, the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region was amplified with primers ITS4/ITS6 (2). The sequence (Accession No. AM884742) matched 100% to B. cinerea sequences deposited in Genbank (Accession Nos. EF207415, EF207414, and EF207413). To our knowledge, this is the first report of red bayberry rot caused by B. cinerea in China. References: (1) J. Y. Lu. Phytopathogenic Fungi. Chinese Agricultural Publishing, Beijing, 1995. (2) D.

Abstract: In order to eliminate residual leukemic cells from the marrow of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) prior to autologous bone marrow transplantation, the optimal conditions of utilization of three CD15 murine monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) were investigated. The VIM-D5 MoAb was used with rabbit complement (C'), whereas the 8.27 and SMY15A MoAbs were used in the presence of human C'. These antibodies were also tested after fixation on magnetic beads. In a culture assay in semi-solid medium with a mixture of normal marrow and 1% HL60 cells, a lysis of clonogenic cells greater than 99% was achieved with the three antibodies and two rounds of complement, or with antibody-coated magnetic beads. Cultures of leukemic clonogenic cells (CFU-L) were performed in 47 cases. An inhibition equal to or greater than 90% was achieved in seven cases with VIM-D5, 16 cases with 8.27 and 11 cases with SMY15A and C'. The correlation with cytotoxicity of fresh cells was low. Twenty cases were purged with antibody-coated beads. An inhibition equal to or greater than 90% was observed in 10 cases with VIM-D5, 11 cases with 8.27 and 12 cases with SMY15A. The mean recovery of normal CFU-GM was higher than 70% and that of BFU-E higher than 95% with any method of treatment. It is concluded that efficient marrow purging of clonogenic AML cells can be achieved in some cases without toxicity for normal progenitors. The addition of other MoAbs seems necessary to obtain a significant purge in a majority of cases.

Abstract: The expression of myeloid surface markers was investigated in 41 cases of untreated adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Nineteen cases (46%) reacted with at least one myeloid monoclonal antibody (CD15 in 16 cases, CD13 in 10 cases, CD14 in five cases, and CD33 in four cases). Double-staining confirmed the coexpression of myeloid and lymphoid markers. In addition, 35 samples were tested for CD34 expression. Fourteen of the 17 myeloid-positive cases tested were positive for CD34 vs. eight of 18 negative cases (p less than 0.05). A t(9;22) translocation was found in eight cases, and a t(4;11) translocation in two cases, all expressing CD34 and myeloid antigens. These findings confirm the high frequency of myeloid markers on the surface of adult ALL blasts, and suggest that these leukemias may originate in a poorly differentiated precursor cell with mixed differentiation capacities.

Abstract: The high-${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{c}}$ (110-K) superconducting phase in the Pb-Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O has been isolated and its structural and physical properties investigated. Transmission-electron-microscopy results show that the structure belongs to a monoclinic system that is different from reports by other groups and in agreement with our x-ray-diffraction analysis. The refined crystal data are a=3.779 \AA{}, b=3.834 \AA{}, c=37.150 \AA{}, \ensuremath{\alpha}=\ensuremath{\beta}=90\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}, \ensuremath{\gamma}=90\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} 51', V=538.5 A${\mathrm{\r{}}}^{3}$, space group I112. Based on the resistivity, magnetization, critical-field, and specific-heat measurements, various parameters characterizing the monophase superconductors were determined or derived. Some of them are listed as follows: ${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{c}\mathit{e}}$ (endpoint)=107 K, ${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{c}\mathit{m}}$ (midpoint)=110 K, \ensuremath{\Delta}C (specific heat jump at 107 K)=5.3 J/mol K, \ensuremath{\gamma} (the Sommerfeld constant) =34.6 mJ/mol ${\mathrm{K}}^{2}$, FTHETA (Debye temperature)=418 K, ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathit{c}1}$(0)=900 G, ${\mathit{H}}_{\mathit{c}2}$(0)=184 T, and ${\mathit{J}}_{\mathit{c}}$(1.5 K, 0 T)=4.8\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{4}$ A/${\mathrm{cm}}^{2}$, etc. Morphology, thermal analysis, and pressure effects of the sample are also mentioned.

Abstract: The crystal structure of the high Tc superconducting phase in a Pb‐doped Bi‐Sr‐Ca‐Cu‐O system (nominal composition Pb0.3Bi1.7Sr2Ca3Cu4OY) with a zero‐resistance temperature of 107 K was determined with transmission electron microscopy. The investigation shows that the crystal structure, which is different from the Pb‐free one, is monocline with dimensions a=0.532 nm, b=0.383 nm, c=3.71 nm, α=β=90° and γ=134.8°. A distinct change of wave vector of incommensurate modulation was also observed.

Abstract: A measurement of the partial width ratio Γbb/Γhad using a method which tags the Z --> bb decays through the lif etime of the produced heavy hadrons is presented. This method relies on the tracking precision afforded by a double-sided silicon vertex detector. The tag algorithm makes a probabilistic interpretation of three-dimensional track impact parameters, using the data to measure the resolution. By tagging the two b hadrons separately, both Γbb/Γhad and the tag efficiency can be determined from the data. For a 26% efficiency of tagging a single b hadron within the vertex detector solid angle coverage, a purity of 96% is achieved. A value of Γbb/Γhad = 0.2192+/-0.0026(stat.)+/-0.0016(Γcc/ Γhad) is found. Combining this result with other recent ALEPH Γbb/Γhad measurements gives a 95% confidence upper limit on the Standard Model top mass of Mt < 228 GeV.

Abstract: A data sample corresponding to 1.23 million hadronic Z decays collected by the ALEPH detector at LEP has been searched for signals of the production of a non-minimal CP-even Higgs boson h in the reaction e + e − → hZ ∗ . The h decay modes considered were: those of the minimal standard model Higgs boson, with modified branching ratios; decays into a pair of CP-odd Higgs bosons A; and decays into invisible final states. Only one event was found, a very acoplanar e+e− pair which could originate from the standard model background process e + e − → e + e − v v . Upper limits for the cross-section of the reaction e + e − → hZ ∗ have been derived as a function of mh, the mass of the Higgs boson h. In the case of invisible decays, the 95% CL lower limit on mh is 65 GeV/c2 for a production cross-section equal to that of a minimal standard model Higgs boson. When combined with previous ALEPH results on the reaction e+e− → hA, these cross-section upper limits exclude a domain in the (mhmA) plane of the MSSM such that if invisible h and A decays can be neglected, 95% CL lower limits of 44 and 21 GeV/c2 result for mh and mA, respectively, independent of the other parameters of the model.

Abstract: The result of a search for high mass photon pairs from the processes e + e − → f f γγ (f = e, μ, τ, v and q) with the ALEPH detector is reported. The result for f = e , μ and τ is to be compared with the observation of 4 events by the L3 Collaboration with invariant masses, M γγ , of the two photons near 60 GeV. From a data sample approximately twice as large taken from 1990 to 1992, 6 events are found with M γγ distributed between 50 GeV and 72 GeV, while 4.9 events are expected from a QED calculation. There is no evidence for a mass peak; only one event ( μ + μ − γγ ) at M γγ = 59.4 ± 0.2 GeV is compatible with the L3 observation. In addition, for M γγ > 50 GeV, no event is found for e + e − → q q γγ and only one event is found consistent with e + e − → v v γγ ; this event has M γγ = 58.5 ± 1.9 GeV. High mass photon pair events have also been searched for in γγ collisions. This allows one to set an upper limit of 50 MeV for the width of an assumed resonance decaying to photon pairs.

Abstract: A sample of 4148 four-jet events observed in the ALEPH-detector at LEP in 1989 and 1990 is used to test the underlying gauge group of strong interactions. A fit to the ratios of the "colour factors" C(F), N(C) and T(F), which determine the differential cross sections, yields N(C)/C(F) = 2.24 +/- 0.32stat +/- 0.24syst and T(F)/C(F) = 0.58 +/- 0.17stat +/- 0.23syst. This is in agreement with the values expected from QCD: N(C)/C(F) = 2.25 and T(F)/C(F) = 0.375. The non-zero value of N(C)/C(F) constitutes direct evidence for the existence of the triple-gluon coupling and excludes any abelian gauge theory by more than five standard deviations.

Abstract: The tau lepton lifetime has been measured using three different methods with the DELPHI detector. Two measurements of one-prong decays are combined, accounting for correlations, giving a result of \tau_\tau = 291.8 \pm 3.3 \mbox{ (stat.)} \pm 2.0 \mbox{(sys.) fs} while the decay length distribution of three-prong decays gives the result \tau_{\tau} = 286.7 \pm 4.9 \mbox{ (stat.)} \pm 3.3 \mbox{ (sys.) fs}. Combining the results presented here with previous DELPHI measurements, we get \tau_{\tau} = 291.4 \pm 3.0 fs and find that the ratio of the coupling constant for tau decay relative to that for muon decay is 0.990 \pm 0.009, compatible with lepton universality.

Abstract: The production of charmed mesons $$\mathop {D^0 }\limits^{( - )} $$ ,D ± , andD *± is studied in a sample of 478,000 hadronicZ decays. The production rates are measured to be $$\begin{gathered} \frac{{\Gamma ({\rm Z} \to D^{* \pm } X)}}{{\Gamma _{had} }} = 0.187 \pm 0.015(\exp .) \pm 0.013(BR), \hfill \\ \frac{{\Gamma ({\rm Z} \to D^ \pm X)}}{{\Gamma _{had} }} = 0.251 \pm 0.026(\exp .) \pm 0.025(BR), \hfill \\ \frac{{\Gamma ({\rm Z} \to \mathop {D^0 }\limits^{( - )} X)}}{{\Gamma _{had} }} = 0.518 \pm 0.052(\exp .) \pm 0.035(BR), \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ where the errors from this analysis are separated from those coming from theD branching ratios (BR). TheD *± momentum distribution is extracted separately for $$Z \to c\bar c$$ and $$Z \to b\bar b$$ events with the help of event shape variables. It is consistent with the prediction of the JETSET Monte Carlo program after adjustment of the charm fragmentation function. Constraining the shape of the $$Z \to b\bar b$$ contribution, the average fraction of the beam energy taken by aD * meson produced in the fragmentation of a charm quark is extracted by a parametric fit to be c =0.495±0.011±0.007. Evidence forD **0 (D 1(2420)0 and/orD 2 * (2460)0) production is found in the $$D^{* \pm } \pi ^ \mp $$ channel, accounting for a fraction (18±5±2)% of allD *± production. The relative production of vector and pseudoscalar mesons is dicussed, together with the possible effects ofD ** production. Thec-quark forward-backwardZ-pole asymmetry is detrmined from that of high momentumD *± to beA =(7.7±4.4)%.

Abstract: Using data collected with the ALEPH detector at LEP correlations between the decay products of the τ+ and τ- produced in the decay of the Z have been measured. The measurements performed in the decays τ-->πν and τ-->ϱν place limits on deviations from the Standard Model. These are given by the parameter ζ with ζ = -1 for the Standard Model. The measured values are ζπ = -0.95 +/- 0.11 +/- 0.05 and ζϱ = -1.03 +/- 0.11 +/- 0.05. For models which predict ζπ = ζϱ = ζ - interpreted as the average τ neutrino helicity - the measurement is ζ = -0.99 +/- 0.07 +/- 0.04.

Abstract: B 0 B 0 oscillation is studied using almost a million hadronic Z decays collected by the ALEPH experiment at LEP. Events are selected with two leptons present, on opposite sides of the event and with high transverse momentum. The leptons are expected to be dominantly from b decays; a topological vertexing technique is applied to measure the decay length of the b hadrons, and their momentum is determined using an energy-flow method. The fraction of events in which the leptons have the same charge is studied as a function of the measured decay time, and clear evidence is seen for the time-dependent nature of B d 0 B d 0 mixing. The frequency measured for the oscillation corresponds to a mass difference for the B d 0 mass eigenstates Δm d = (3.3 −0.4 +0.5 ± 0.7) × 10 −4 eV/ c 2 . Allowing a second frequency component for the B s 0 a high value for Δm s is favoured, leading to the limit Δm s > 12 × 10 −4 eV/ c 2 (95% CL), from which ( Δm / Γ ) s > 2.0 is derived.

Abstract: The \ud lifetimes \ud of \ud the \ud ~0 \ud and \ud B- \ud mesons \ud have \ud been \ud measured \ud with \ud the \ud ALEPH \ud detector \ud at \ud LEP. \ud Semileptonlc \ud decays \ud of \ud ~0 \ud and \ud B- \ud mesons \ud were \ud partially \ud reconstructed \ud by \ud identifying \ud events \ud containing \ud a \ud lepton \ud with \ud an \ud associated \ud D \ud *+ \ud or \ud D \ud o \ud meson. \ud The \ud proper \ud time \ud of \ud the \ud B \ud meson \ud was \ud estimated \ud from \ud the \ud measured \ud decay \ud length \ud and \ud the \ud momentum \ud and \ud mass \ud of \ud the \ud D-lepton \ud system. \ud A \ud fit \ud to \ud the \ud proper \ud time \ud of \ud 77 \ud D*+g \ud - \ud and \ud 77 \ud DOg \ud - \ud can&dates, \ud combined \ud with \ud a \ud constraint \ud on \ud the \ud hfetlme \ud ratio \ud (z_/z \ud o) \ud arising \ud from \ud the \ud relative \ud rates \ud of \ud observed \ud D*+g \ud - \ud and \ud DOg \ud - \ud events, \ud +020 \ud +007 \ud (syst.)ps,z_ \ud = \ud 1 \ud 47 \ud +022 \ud +015 \ud yielded \ud the \ud following \ud hfetimes' \ud z \ud 0 \ud = \ud 1.52_0.18 \ud (stat.)_o \ud 13 \ud ' \ud -019 \ud (stat.)_o \ud 14 \ud (syst.) \ud ps, \ud z-/Zo \ud = \ud 00g+o \ud 19 \ud (stat.)+o \ud IS \ud (syst).
