Typing of anastomosis groups of Rhizoctonia solani by restriction analysis of ribosomal DNA.
2003
A method based on restriction analysis of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-amplified ribosomal DNA was developed for the rapid characterization of large populations of Rhizoctonia solani at the anastomosis group (AG) level. The restriction maps of the internal transcribed spacers (ITS) sequences were compared for 219 isolates of R. solani belonging to AG-1 to AG-12 and AG-BI, representing diverse geographic and host range origins. Four discriminant restriction enzymes (MseI, AvaII, HincII, and MunI) resolved 40 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) types among the 219 ITS sequences of R. solani. Each RFLP type could be assigned to a single AG except for two RFLP types, which were c…
Ergastoplasmic paracrystalline inclusion bodies in the adipose gonadal envelope and fat body of the glow worm, Lampyris noctiluca (Insecta, Coleopter…
2001
Abstract The gonads of glow worm larvae are enveloped by adipose tissue which represents a specialized fat body. The adipose gonadal envelope, and also to a lesser extent the fat body cells, contain tubular paracrystalline inclusion bodies (PIBs). Cells of other tissues are devoid of such inclusions. The PIBs form in the cisternae of rough ER. In young larvae PIB formation is sparse, but at advanced larval stages PIBs often occur as bundles in stacks of ergastoplasm. Typically, a PIB within a cisterna consists of four to seven parallel tubules. The outer diameter of a tubule is ca 28.8 nm and the width of the tubule lumen ca 12.2 nm. The “wall” of a tubule contains globular protein subunits…
Doctoral Education and Doctoral Theses — Changing Assessment Practices
2008
Most European countries are today highly interested in the quality of doctoral education. Undoubtedly, the Bologna Process has also given impetus to a reassessment of national doctoral education systems. There is a need to find comparable indicators measuring the efficiency and quality of doctoral education systems and educational practices alike. At the centre of the doctoral education agenda are not only national research funding systems, research training and doctoral programmes but also issues involving international collaboration and mobility (Enders and de Weert 2004; Tomusk 2006). It is widely accepted that doctoral candidates and doctoral theses make a major contribution to the crea…
Infracyanine Green vs. Brilliant Blue G in Inverted Flap Surgery for Large Macular Holes: A Long-Term Swept-Source OCT Analysis
2020
Background and Objectives: To compare the long-term toxicity of infracyanine green (IFCG) to brilliant blue G (BBG) in inverted internal limiting membrane flap surgery (I-ILMFS) for large, full-thickness macular holes (FTMHs). Materials and Methods: Prospective randomized study including 39 eyes with &ge
Treatment of macular oedema (excluding age-related macular degeneration (AMD))
2021
Macular oedema corresponds to an increase in macular thickness most often associated with a rupture of the hematoretinal barriers. Diagnosis is based on the notion of reduced vision, but above all on multimodal imaging in which optical coherence tomography (OCT) plays an essential role both for the initial diagnosis and for follow-up. The mechanisms involved in the occurrence of macular oedema are primarily vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and cytokines regardless of the aetiology of the oedema. Treatment often involves a combination of local treatment - primarily intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF or corticosteroids - and, in certain situations, such as diabetes or uveitis, gene…
Complexes of organometallic compounds. XLVI. Synthesis of adducts formed by organotin(IV) trichlorides with 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, and the…
1977
Abstract Adducts between RSnCl 3 (R = Me, Bu n , Oct n , Ph) and 1,2-bisz(diphenylphosphino)ethane, DPE, have 1:1 composition. In Mossbauer spectroscopic experiences at variable absorber temperature the area under the resonant peaks, A, has been measured for RSnCl 3 ·DPE, R = Me, Ph; slopes plots of in A vs. T suggest strong coupling between Mossbauer atoms, which has been interpreted in terms of solid state polymeric structures, due to DPE acting as a bridging bis-monodentate ligand. Infrared data indicate the covalency of SnCl bonds. Three possible structural isomers of octahedral type are then proposed, one having trans -P 2 and two cis -P 2 atoms. A choice between these structures has …
Complexes of organometallic compounds
1974
Abstract Novel complexes RClSntrid, where R is Me, Ph, n-Oct, and trid 2− are dianions of tridentate “planar” ligands with ONO and SNO donor atoms, were synthesized and investigated in the solid state by infrared and Mossbauer spectroscopy. Possible configurations are discussed; polymeric trigonal bipyramidal structures seem to occur, although five-coordinated monomers as well as octahedral dimers (via oxygen or sulfur bridges) are not excluded.
Complexes of Tin(IV) with Tridentate Ligands M�SSBAUER, Infrared, and Solution Phase Studies
1974
The configuration in the solid state and in solution phase of complexes of SuIV wit,li tridentate “planar” ligands, Sn(trid)2 and HNEt3Cl3 Sntrid, have been investigated by infrared and MOSSBAUER spectroscopy, as well as by osmometry, conductivity, and electronic and PMR spectroscopy. The presence of monomeric Sn(trid)2 and ionic [HNEt] [Cl3Sn trid−] species has been inferred. Octahedral type configurations are advanced for both classes of compounds.

Synthesis and crystal structure of the low-spin iron(II) complex [Fe(bpym)3](ClO4)2·1/4H2O (bpym=2,2′-bipyrimidine)
1997
Abstract Single crystals of the mononuclear iron(II) complex of formula [Fe(bpym)3](ClO4)2·1/4H2O (bpym=2,2′-bipyrimidine) have been prepared and characterized crystallographically. The complex is monoclinic, P21/c, a=13.688(5), b=19.391(6), c=11.554(5) A, β=102.22(3)°, V=2997(2) A3, Z=4, R=0.063 and Rw=0.068. The structure analysis reveals a distorted octahedral geometry around the iron atom. The average Fe–N bond length and N–Fe–N bidentate angle are 1.970(5) A and 81.0(1)°, respectively. The value of the Fe–N distance and that of the room temperature magnetic moment are in agreement with its singlet 1A1 ground state.
Synthesis and Physical Properties of K4[Fe(C5O5)2(H2O)2](HC5O5)2·4H2O (C5O52– = Croconate): A Rare Example of Ferromagnetic Coupling via H-bonds
2012
The reaction of the croconate dianion (C(5)O(5))(2-) with a Fe(III) salt has led, unexpectedly, to the formation of the first example of a discrete Fe(II)-croconate complex without additional coligands, K(4)[Fe(C(5)O(5))(2)(H(2)O)(2)](HC(5)O(5))(2)·4H(2)O (1). 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2(1)/c space group and presents discrete octahedral Fe(II) complexes coordinated by two chelating C(5)O(5)(2-) anions in the equatorial plane and two trans axial water molecules. The structure can be viewed as formed by alternating layers of trans-diaquabis(croconato)ferrate(II) complexes and layers containing the monoprotonated croconate anions, HC(5)O(5)(-), and noncoordinated water molecules. Both …
