Solution properties of polyelectrolytes—V. Viscometric study of mixed polyanions in pure water

1990

Abstract A viscometric study of sodium polystyrene sulphonate (NaPSS) and sodium poly( l -glutamate) (NaPLG) in salt-free water has been carried out as a function of the total concentration, cm, and the concentration of one polyelectrolyte at fixed concentration of the other. The influences of the molecular weight and concentration are considered in order to establish the degree of compatibility. For the first time, an equation is proposed to define the reduced viscosity of the NaPSS + NaPLG mixture in water. The viscometric interaction parameter, Bm, taking into account the electrostatic and thermodynamic interactions between both polyions, is defined as a geometrical mean of the contribut…

Theoretical Design of Organic Metals Based on the Phthalocyanine Macrocycle

1990

Phthalocyanine molecular crystals and cofacially linked polymers are well documented as low-dimensional materials that may attain high electrical conductivities. Air-stable conductivities on the order of 1 to 1000 S/cm after partial oxidation by iodine have been reported.1–3 These conductivity studies indicate that the electrical conductivity has very little dependence on the identity of the atom complexed in the cavity, but is strongly dependent on the orientation and spacing of the phthalocyanine rings. A columnar stacking with minimum spacing leads to a maximum interaction between π-molecular orbitals on adjacent rings and promotes the highest conductivity. More effective π-interactions …

Insular variation in central MediterraneanCrociduraWagler, 1832 (Mammalia, Soricidae)

1990

Morphometric variation of Crocidura mandible in Sicily and surrounding islands (Egadi archipelago, Ustica, Pantelleria and Gozo) was analyzed by principal component and canonical variate analyses in order to integrate recent chromosomal and biochemical observations. Specimens of C. suaveolens and C. leucodon from mainland Italy and of C. russula from Sardinia were used as reference in this analysis. The biometry of the only taxon of shrews living in Sicily is significantly different from the three reference samples. This result, coupled with a recently discovered new karyotype, provides strong evidence for a new Eurasian species, for which the name C. sicula Miller 1901, was chosen. Crocidu…

How to pay for the debt — Coping with the Third World's crisis

1990

The Brady Plan is the first official proposal to give priority to a tangible reduction in the debtor countries' debt service burden and is thus a milestone along the path towards overcoming the international debt crisis. However, the instruments foreseen in the Plan virtually invite criticism and scepticism. What are the main inadequacies of the Brady Plan? How can the international debt strategy be developed further and made more effective?

Die ärztliche Aufklärung — Eine Gratwanderung zwischen juristischem Muß und ärztlichem Tun?

1990

Die arztliche Aufklarung — mit den Worten Karl Jaspers — zeichnet sich aus durch die Verantwortung fur die Richtigkeit der Aussage und fur die Wirkung auf den Kranken [7]. Die Problematik dieses sowohl von Juristen als auch von Arzten anerkannten Anspruchs wird besonders deutlich, wenn die Krankheit selbst dem sog. „verstandigen Patienten“ als abstrakte juristische Konstruktion die innere Verarbeitung des Aufklarungsgesprachs versperrt.

Sociología del desenvolupament i límits ecològics

1990

La interpretació convencional del canvi social contemporani depèn de la sociologia del desenvolupament o modernització, la qual és, en gran manera, un corol·lari de la teoria econòmica del creixement. Les crítiques al creixement fetes pels economistes ecològics (Georgescu-Roegen, Daly i altres) tenen, en conseqüència, diverses implicacions per a la sociologia del canvi social. L'article conté una exploració preliminar d'algunes d'aquestes implicacions. S'hi il·lustra la dependècia entre teoria del canvi social i creixement econòmic en referència a les tesis de transició a la societat postindustrial de Bell. La possibilitat de generalitzar el model de societat de les actuals zones industrial…

Präoperative Lokalisationsdiagnostik beim organischen Hyperinsulinismus — sinnvoll oder überflüssig —

1990

Im eigenen Krankengut (n = 43) hatte die perkutane Sonographie eine Sensitivitat von 61,9%, das Angio-CT von 73,3%, die Angiographie von 66,6% und die PTP von 76,9%. Intraoperativ waren 95,2% der Geschwulste palpabel und die intraoperative Sonographie hatte eine Sensitivitat von 81,2%. In der BRD werden laut Umfrage mit Ausnahme einer Klinik immer eine Sonographie und eine Computertomographie und in 83,8% eine Angiographie gefordert. Eine praoperative Lokalisationsdiagnostik ist beim organischen Hyperinsulinismus nicht zwingend notwendig, sie hat jedoch nach wie vor ihre Bedeutung.

Fluorimetric determination of 1-naphthol and mixtures of carbaryl and 1-naphthol in micellar media

1990

The interaction of 1-naphthol with different types of anionic, cationic and non-ionic surfactants has been studied spectrofluorimetrically in order to obtain a sensitivity enhancement in the determination of this compound. At neutral pH, cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) provides a 2-fold sensitivity enhancement of 1-naphthol and exhibits a weak interaction with carbaryl. In strong alkaline medium carbaryl is hydrolyzed to 1-naphthol and in the presence of CTAB micells, a 5-fold sensitivity enhancement and a limit of detection of 0.2 μg·ml−1 with a 101±3% percentage of recovery is obtained. These facts permit the development of an accurate method for the fluorimetric analysis of 1-nap…

Calculation of voltammetric peaks by the transformed Heyrovsky-Ilkovi? equation

1990

Calculating real polarographic or voltammetric peaks is rather difficult. A new possibility to compute such peaks is the use of the transformed Heyrovsky-Ilkovic equation. The calculation allows to simulate polarograms or voltammograms by computer. Furthermore, it is possible to smooth voltammetric peaks without loss of peak height or separation of overlapping peaks.

On-line microwave oven digestion flame atomic absorption analysis of solid samples

1990

Abstract A manifold has been developed for on-line microwave oven digestion and flame atomic absorption spectrometric (FAAS) determination of metallic elements in solid samples. The use of a closed flow system permits sample treatment before analysis by FAAS, the direct injection of slurries avoids a filtration step and the interconnection of two conventional rotary injection valves allows the rapid introduction of samples and standards. The determination of lead in sewage sludge was employed as a test system for the proposed on-line sample digestion manifold. The procedure has a limit of detection of 0.2 μg Pb g−1.

Investigations of the Microstructure of Lipid Interface Films

1990

The phase behaviour of phospholipid monolayers at electrolyte/gas interfaces is studied by fluorescence microscopy. At the LE/LC phase transition, phase separation leads to a Wigner-type lattice structure. The observations are quantified using digital image processing. The results show that the phase transition comprises three different regimes.

Abduction saccades in unilateral internuclear ophthalmoplegia

1990

Horizontal eye movements were investigated in 60 consecutive patients with unilateral internuclear ophthalmoplegia utilizing direct current electrooculography. In nine patients additional conjugated slowing of ipsiversive saccades indicated the diagnosis of a one-and-a-half syndrome. Slowing of abduction saccades was bilateral in two patients and unilateral in 20 (ipsilateral to the MLF lesion in 17 patients and contralateral in three). Slowing of abduction saccades was attributed to impaired inhibition of the tonic resting activity of the antagonistic medial rectus muscle. On the eye contralateral to the lesion 70% of the patients had abduction nystagmus and 66.7% hy permetric abduction sa…

Walsh function analysis of 2-D generalized continuous systems

1990

The importance of the generalized or singular 2D continuous systems are demonstrated by showing their use in the solution of partial differential equations in two variables. A technique is presented for solving these systems in terms of Walsh functions. The method replaces the solution of a two-variable partial differential equation with the solution of a linear algebraic generalized 2D Sylvester equation. An efficient technique for the recursive solution of the latter equation is offered. All the results apply also in the usual Roesser 2D state-space case. >

As a rule, during anaesthesia a time dependent increase in pulmonary shunting occurs even in states of normal lung function. Therefore positive end-expiratory pressure ventilation (PEEP) is often used to decrease intrapulmonary right/left shunting (RL shunt) and thus to increase arterial O2 partial pressure (paO2) without increasing the inspiratory oxygen fraction.

Abstract Some cognitive and performance correlates of ‘worry’ and ‘emotionality’ components of test-anxiety were studied with particular reference to gender differences. An Italian adaptation of the Worry-Emotionality (W-E) Scale was administered to a sample of 99 high-school students, together with other scales devised to assess ‘Fear of negative evaluation’ and the subjects' perception of the real, ideal and social aspects of the Self. The Grade Point Average was taken as outcome measure of academic performance. The results show that in the male subjects, Worry correlates, as expected, with poor self-image and with negative academic performance; more complex correlations are found in fema…

1990

We report 2<r7Pb/206Pb single-zircon evaporation ages for early Pan-African rocks from southern Israel and the northeastern Sinai Peninsula, the northernmost extension of the Arabian-Nubian shield. The oldest rocks are metamorphic schists of presumed island-arc derivation; detrital zircons date the source terrain at ca. 800-820 Ma. A major phase of tonalite-trondhjemite plutonism occurred at ca. 760-780 Ma; more evolved granitic rocks were emplaced at about 745 Ma. A metagabbro-met adiorite complex reflects the youngest igneous phase at ca. 640 Ma. We Find no evidence for pre-Pan-African crust, and our data document important crust-forming events that correlate with similar episodes elsewhe…
