Hepatitis C virus associated primary hepatocellular carcinoma in a noncirrhotic liver
1993
The case of a 71-year-old man with a primary hepatocellular carcinoma in a non-cirrhotic liver is reported. There were no risk factors of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)-like liver cirrhosis, alcohol drinking, tobacco smoking, exposure to vinyl chloride, thorotrast, aflatoxin or alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency. Serologically, the patient was positive for antibodies to the hepatitis B virus (anti-HBc, anti-HBs) and for anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibodies. Virologically, positive and negative strands of HCV RNA could be detected in the patient's serum and tumorous liver tissue by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction as a sign of persistent HCV replication. Histologically, the HCC…
Pressure induced changes in the Raman spectra of liquidn-alkanes and perfluoro-n-alkanes
1982
The main effect of pressures up to 6 kbar on the Raman spectra of liquidn-alkanes and perfluoro-n-alkanes is a reduction of line widths indicative for a slowing-down of rotational motions about the long axes. There is no evidence for a change in the conformer populations.
Molecular Motion, Defect Structures and Phase Transitions in Oligomer Crystals
1983
Defect structures in the high temperature modifications of oligomer crystals can generally be discribed as a superposition of chain rotations, longitudinal shifts of the molecules and the occurrence of conformational defects. Applying a suitable combination of experimental techniques it is possible to discriminate between the different components of disorder. This is demonstrated in a discussion of results obtained on n-alkanes, cycloalkanes and perfluoro-n-alkanes.
Raman spectrum of the high pressure phase of polyethylene
1982
The Raman spectrum of the hexagonal high pressure phase of polyethylene was measured at 5.2 kbar and 240 °C, using a hydrostatic high pressure cell. The spectrum is largely identical to that obtained for the melt. This result indicates that the conformational short range order in the hexagonal phase remains melt —like and is not modified by the overall straightening of chains.
