Extracting absolute titanium-alkyl and-hydride bond enthalpies from relative D(TiR(H)) in (silox)2(Bu3SiNH)TiR: electronegativity and ECT models

Relative D(Ti-R)_rel have been measured previously for (silox)₂(^tBu₃SiNH)TiR (1-R). Pauling and Matcha equations of D(MR) that contain elements of electronegativity, D(MM), D(HH) and D(RH) were used to estimate absolute D(TiR) in 1 with minimal success. The electronegativity approaches need a variety of substituents with a wide spread in χ_R, hence examination of 1-H and 1-R are heavily and incorrectly weighted by D(TiH)-D(TiR). Absolute D(TiR) generated in this manner approach those of related systems only when χX_Ti = 2.9, a value shown to be irrational. Drago's ECT parameters were used in the hope that the three parameter fit would compensate for inadequacies in electronegativity-based methods. The limited set of alkyl parameters available, and a lack of distinguishing parameters that can significantly differentiate one alkyl from another, render this potentially useful method imprecise.

Effects of selected insecticides on Diadegma insulare (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae), a parasitoid of Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae)

Effects of eight insecticides on Diadegma insulare (Cresson), a parasitoid of the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella L., were evaluated under the laboratory conditions. The insecticides were three azadirachtin-based products (Ecozin, Agroneem and Neemix), two Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) products (Xentari and Crymax), indoxacarb, spinosad, and λ-cyhalothrin. When D. insulare pupae were treated, none of the insecticide treatments except λ-cyhalothrin significantly reduced adult emergence, with 76-90% adults emerged from the treated pupae. In the λ-cyhalothrin treatment, only 10% D. insulare pupae produced adult wasps. Indoxacarb, spinosad, and λ-cyhalothrin caused 100% D. insulare adult mortality in 24 h in Petri dishes sprayed with insecticides in the contact bioassays, and 95.8, 100 and 95.8% adult mortality in 24 h in the ingestion bioassays, respectively. In contrast, all three azadirachtin-based insecticides and the two Bt-insecticides caused only 0-10.4% mortality of D. insulare adults after ingestion. The surviving D. insulare from ingestion treatments with Bt- and azadirachtin-insecticides parasitized 50.8-67.6% of P. xylostella larvae, respectively, compare to 72.1% for the water control. After ingesting indoxacarb, spinosad and λ-cyhalothrin mixed in honey-water, both the females and the males lived significantly shorter than those ingesting Bt- and azadirachtin-insecticides and the non-insecticide honey-water. Effects of leaf residues of indoxacarb, spinosad and λ-cyhalothrin varied significantly. The leaf residues of spinosad had the least effects on D. insulare adults, and 7- and 10-day-old residue only caused 5.6 and 7.4% mortality in 24 h, whereas 10-day-old leaf residues of indoxacarb and λ-cyhalothrin caused 40.7 and 57.4% mortality in 24 h, respectively.

水蚀风蚀交错区不同土地利用方式的土壤水气传输特性

研究水蚀风蚀交错区土地利用方式转变对土壤水气传输的影响,可为黄土高原生态恢复过程中有限水土资源的高效利用提供参考.为了分析不同土地利用方式下的土壤水气传输特性,探究饱和导水率(K_s)、导气率(K_a)和相对气体扩散率(D_P/D₀)间的关系,对柠条地、撂荒地、苜蓿地、农地和裸地样地0~5 cm深度土层原状土,采用定水头法测定K_s,气室法测定D_P/D₀,土壤导气率测定仪测定田间持水量(FC)下的K_a.结果表明: 土壤0~5 cm容重(ρ_b)的大小顺序为苜蓿地>裸地>撂荒地>柠条地>农地,撂荒地、裸地和苜蓿地ρ_b与农地差异显著.土壤总孔隙度(Φ)的大小顺序为农地>柠条地>撂荒地>裸地>苜蓿地,相比农地,苜蓿地、裸地和撂荒地土壤Φ分别低7.5%、4.7%和3.1%.充气孔隙度(ε₁₀₀)的大小顺序为农地>撂荒地>柠条地>裸地>苜蓿地,苜蓿地、裸地、柠条地和撂荒地ε₁₀₀分别较农地低38.3%、33.6%、12.8%和10.1%.土壤K_s的大小顺序为撂荒地>柠条地>苜蓿地>裸地>农地,其中,撂荒地K_s显著高于其他4种土地利用方式;土壤K_a的大小顺序为撂荒地>苜蓿地>柠条地>裸地>农地,撂荒地与农地之间差异显著;土壤D_P/D₀的大小顺序为撂荒地>柠条地>苜蓿地>农地>裸地,其中,柠条地和撂荒地土壤D_P/D₀显著大于农地,分别较农地高36.8%和61.6%.土壤K_s和FC条件下的K_a、D_P/D₀之间呈显著相关.土地利用方式转变显著改变了土壤的通透性,耕地撂荒或者种植柠条及苜蓿改善了表层土壤导水和导气性能,农地和裸地土壤水气传输能力较差.     

The radiosensitivity of spermatogonial stem cells in C3H/101 F1 hybrid mice

The radiosensitivity of spermatogonial stem cells of C3H/HeH × 101/H F₁ hybrid mice was determined by counting undifferentiated spermatogonia at 10 days after X-irradiation. During the spermatogenic cycle, differences in radiosensitivity were found, which were correlated with the proliferative activity of the spermatogonial stem cells. In stage VIII_irr, during quiescence, the spermatogonial stem cells were most radiosensitive with a D₀ of 1.4 Gy. In stages XI_irr−V_irr, when the cells were proliferatively active, the D₀ was about 2.6 Gy. Based on the D₀ values for sensitive and resistant spermatogonia and on the D₀ for the total population, a ratio of 45:55% of sensitive to resistant spermatogonial stem cells was estimated for cell killing.

When the present data were compared with data on translocation induction obtained in mice of the same genotype, a close fit was obtained when the translocation yield (Y; in % abnormal cells) after a radiation dose D was described by Y = e^τD, with τ = 1 for the sensitive and τ = 0.1 for the resistant spermatogonial stem cells, with a maximal e^τD of 100.     

Eight-coordinate chelate complexes of zirconium(IV) and niobium(IV): X-ray diffractometric and EPR investigations

The N,N-diethylcarbamato derivative of zirconium(IV), Zr(O₂CNEt₂)₄ has been studied by X-ray crystallography. Crystal data: C₂₀H₄₀Na₄O₈Zr, monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 14.057(1), b = 12.168(1), c = 16.746(2) Å, β = 108.071(4)°, Z = 4, D_c = 1.356, F(000) = 1168, T = 213 K. The compound is isotypic with the corresponding niobium(IV) derivative with a dodecahedral coordination at the zirconium atom. By reaction of NbCl₄(THF)₂ with Tl(hfacac), the hexafluoroacetylacetonato derivative of niobium (IV), Nb(hfacac)₄, has been prepared and structurally characterized. The compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pna2₁ with the following cell constants: a = 10.399(4), b = 15.852(9), c = 119.073(1) Å. It is not isotypic with the corresponding zirconium(IV) derivative, Zr(hfacac)₄. Crystal data: C₂₀H₄F₂₄O₈Zr, monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, a = 11.974(4), b = 20.451(6), c = 13.140(3) Å, β = 104.487(11)°, Z = 4, D_c = 1.960, F(000) = 1776, T = 223 K. Although in both compounds the central metal atom shows a square antiprismatic coordination, the coordination mode of the ligands is different and slight deviations from the D₄(llll) and C₂(llss) ideal geometries have been observed in the case of niobium and zirconium, respectively. An EPR study has been performed on the Nb(IV) derivatives as diluted solid solutions in frozen organic solvents or in the diamagnetic matrix of the corresponding zirconium(IV) compound. The EPR spectra have confirmed the presence of non-interacting paramagnets in the solid solutions and, in the case of Nb(O₂CNEt₂)₄, the point symmetry of the paramagnetic centre has been found to be in agreement with the results of the X-ray investigation. An EPR spectrum of rhombic symmetry has been observed for the hexafluoroacetylacetonato derivative of Nb(IV) when diluted in frozen THF solution or in Zr(hfacac)₄.     

Fractal structure and conformational entropy of protein chain

The structures of 25 proteins arbitrarily chosen are investigated by fractal geometry, and their fractal dimensions (D_f) and conformational entropies S(N₀) are calculated by Havlin—Ben Avraham and Monte Carlo method, respectively. Comparison of the D_f and S(N₀) gives the relation: D_f = 1.532 - 3.00 × 10⁻⁴ S(N₀). The entropy data obtained by Monte Carlo method for the chain of random self-avoiding walks confirm the prediction of renormalization group: S(N₀) = 1.544N₀ + 0.1667 In N₀ + 0.1570 where N₀ is the number of residues in a protein chain. Both the D_f and S(N₀) reflect the conformational properties of a protein molecular chain. The idea resulting from the present communication suggests that the thermodynamic behaviours of proteins may be related to multifractals.     

Minimum entropy production in photosynthesis

In this paper a flux-coupling model of photosynthesis is presented. By requiring minimum entropy production, it is found that the photosynthetic efficiency is essentially given by the square root of D/λ. D and λ are the diffusion coefficient and thermal conductivity of the rate-limiting processes in the chloroplast, respectively. For experimental values of D and λ, the efficiency is found to be 2.4–7.5%, with a likely value of 6.1%, whereas C4-plants are known to have an efficiency of 6.2%. We conclude that the process of photosynthesis is in quantitative agreement with the principle of minimum entropy production.     

Production of the antitumoral retamycin during continuous fermentations of Streptomyces olindensis

Continuous fermentations were performed in order to correlate the production of retamycin, an anthracycline antibiotic produced by Streptomyces olindensis in submerged cultures, with the dilution rate. Maximum retamycin production was achieved at a dilution rate of 0.05 h⁻¹ (D=μ_x=0.05 h⁻¹), while higher dilution rates caused a decrease in antibiotic production, which ceased completely at a dilution rate of 0.30 h⁻¹. Otherwise, biomass productivity was favoured by high dilution rates, achieving a maximum at D=0.25 h⁻¹, whereas retamycin productivity reached a maximum at D=0.05 h⁻¹. Dilution rate influenced morphology, which was assessed by image analysis. The percentage of clumps decreased with an increase in dilution rate, with a correspondent increase in pellet percentage.     

Biosystematics of the genus Pinus, subsection contortae

Gene frequency data from 42 isoenzyme loci were used to assess the phylogeny of taxa in the genus Pinus, subsection Contortae. The classification inferred from a phenogram based on Nei's genetic distance measure (D_N) was generally in good agreement with the current taxonomic treatment of the subsection. Pinus contorta appears to most closely resemble the ancestral taxon from which all other taxa in the subsection are derived. An alternative classification based upon Mahalonobis squared distances (D_R) obtained from seed and cone measurements differed from the isoenzyme treatment by placing P. contorta subsp. murrayana in close association with P. virginiana.     

Chromosome aberrations induced by X-ray therapy and myxovirus infection in human peripheral leukocytes

The dose-response relationships and the distribution of breaks induced by irradiation were studied in phytohemagglutinin-stimulated peripheral lymphocytes from female patients treated with X-rays for cancer of the breast. The yield of dicentrics and rings was expressed by the formula y = 0.0086 + 1.53 (± 0.15) · 10⁻⁵ D, and the yield of fragments by y = 0.022 + 1.68 (± 0.17) · 10⁻⁵ D, where D is the accumulated skin dose in rad. The percentage of damaged cells, however, reached a plateau of 22% at about 6000 rad. In all dose ranges, the distribution of cells with various numbers of breaks deviated significantly from a Poisson distribution, which should have been obtained if all cells in the blood had been exposed to irradiation. It was possible to calculate the number of undamaged cells present in excess and, when these were omitted, a close agreement with a Poisson distribution was obtained. The results suggested that almost 30% of the circulating lymphocytes had been exposed to irradiation with the fractionated partial body procedure utilized.

The effect of Newcastle disease, Sendai, measles and mumps virus infection in vitro on peripheral blood lymphocytes from irradiated patients was also studied. Virus treatment caused a decrease in the frequency of chromosome-type damage. No effect, or a slight decrease of chromatid-type damage, was seen as compared with controls treated with normal allantoic fluid.     

DE-Cadherin, a Core Component of the Adherens Junction Complex Modifies Subcellular Localization of the Drosophila Gap Junction Protein Innexin2

The Drosophila innexin multigene family of gap junction encoding proteins consists of eight family members whose function in epithelial morphogenesis is mostly unknown. We have recently shown that innexin2 plays a crucial role in the organization of embryonic epithelia. Innexin2 protein accumulates in the epidermis in the apico-lateral membrane domain and colocalizes with core proteins of adherens junctions, such as DE-cadherin and Armadillo, the β -catenin homolog. Innexin2 localization is altered in both armadillo and DE-cadherin mutants Biochemical interaction studies point to a direct interaction of DE-cadherin and Armadillo with innexin2 suggesting a close link between gap junction and adherens junction biogenesis. We have used the Drosophila Schneider cell tissue culture system to further study the interaction of innexin2 with DE-cadherin. Our results provide evidence that DE-cadherin may be a key component to control trafficking, and localization of Innexin2 to the plasma membrane.     

Mathematical modeling and study of mass transfer parameters in supercritical fluid extraction of fatty acids from Trout powder

Mathematical modeling of fatty acids (FAs) extraction from Trout powder by supercritical carbon dioxide was performed in the present work. Trout powder with its low cost contains high amount of essential FAs and it is commonly available as a proper source of FAs. The effect of process parameters, such as pressure (25, 28, 31, 34 and 37 MPa) and temperature (310, 318 and 326 K) of extraction and void fraction of the bed (0.25, 0.35 and 0.45, v/v) on the yield of FAs extraction was examined in a series of experiments conducted in a laboratory scale apparatus. The results indicated a significant increase of extraction yield with an increase of pressure from 25 to 34 MPa, but working at the higher pressure (37 MPa) caused reduction of the extract. Increasing the temperature higher than 318 K revealed significant reduction of the FAs yield and increasing the bed void fraction from 0.25 to 0.45 showed enhancement of the extraction.

The mathematical model was developed considering diffusion-controlled regime in the particle and film mass transfer resistance around the particle with axial dispersion of the bulk phase at dynamic conditions. Henry law was used to describe the equilibrium state of solid and fluid phases. The proposed mass balance equations were numerically solved using implicit finite difference method and the model parameters were correlated using the experimental results of the outlet FAs concentration in the oil extracted at dynamic conditions. Well-known Nelder–Mead method was applied to estimate the four parameters of the model, namely, mass transfer coefficient (k_f), axial dispersion coefficient (D_ax) in the bulk phase, effective diffusivity (D_eff) into the pores and Henry coefficient (H). In the range of studied conditions, the higher extraction efficiency with higher pressure resulted lower correlated H, although the temperature increasing which showed a retrograde phenomena in the FAs yield, revealed H passing though a minimum.
