Minimum volume for a liquid bridge between equal disks

The lower stability limit for axisymmetric floating zones at rest between equal coaxial disks has been experimentally verified for several disk-separation/disk-diameter ratios by using the neutral buoyancy technique. Results show a close agre ment with theory in the case of bridge disruption and a wide scatter in the case of bridge etachment.

Long liquid bridges aboard sounding rockets

Large free liquid volumes, 30 mm in diameter and 80 mm long, anchored to coaxial discs, have been achieved during a sounding-rocket flight. As these flights provide some six minutes of microgravity and the formation of the liquid column takes only a matter of seconds, ample time is left for experimentation. The results of these trials are presented, and the equipment used to obtain them is briefly described.

Hydrostatic instabilities in floating zone cristal growth process

If only Fluid Mechanics aspects are considered, the configuration appearing in the floating zone technique for crystal growth can be modelled as a mass of liquid spanning between two solid rods. Besides, if now the influence of temperature gradients and heat flow are not considered, the simplest fluid model consists of an isothermal liquid mass of constant properties (density and surface tension) held by capillary forces between two solid disks placed a distance L apart: the so called liquid bridge. As it is well known, if both supporting disks were parallel, coaxial and of the same diameter, 2R, the volume of liquid, V, were equal to that of a cylinder of the same L and R (V=KR~L) and no body forces were acting on the liquid column, the fluid configuration (under these conditions of cylindrical shape) will become unstable when the distance between the disks equals the length of the circumference of the supporting disks (L=2KR, the so-called Rayleigh stability limit). One should be aware that the Rayleigh stability limit can be dramatically modified when the geometry differs from the above described cylinder (due to having non-coaxial disks, different diameter disks, liquid volume different from the cylindrical one, etc) or when other external effects like accelerations either axial or lateral are considered. In this paper the stability limits of liquid bridges considering different types of perturbations are reviewed.

Characterization of the antiproliferative signal mediated by the somatostatin receptor subtype sst5

We investigated cell proliferation modulated by cholecystokinin (CCK) and somatostatin analogue RC-160 in CHO cells bearing endogenous CCKA receptors and stably transfected by human subtype sst5 somatostatin receptor. CCK stimulated cell proliferation of CHO cells. This effect was suppressed by inhibitor of the soluble guanylate cyclase, LY 83583, the inhibitor of the cGMP dependent kinases, KT 5823, and the inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase, PD 98059. CCK treatment induced an increase of intracellular cGMP concentrations, but concomitant addition of LY 83583 virtually suppressed this increase. CCK also activated both phosphorylation and activity of p42-MAP kinase; these effects were inhibited by KT 5823. All the effects of CCK depended on a pertussis toxin-dependent G protein. Somatostatin analogue RC-160 inhibited CCK-induced stimulation of cell proliferation but it did not potentiate the suppressive effect of the inhibitors LY 83583 and KT 5823. RC-160 inhibited both CCK-induced intracellular cGMP formation as well as activation of p42-MAP kinase phosphorylation and activity. This inhibitory effect was observed at doses of RC-160 similar to those necessary to occupy the sst5 recombinant receptor and to inhibit CCK-induced cell proliferation. We conclude that, in CHO cells, the proliferation and the MAP kinase signaling cascade depend on a cGMP-dependent pathway. These effects are positively regulated by CCK and negatively influenced by RC-160, interacting through CCKA and sst5 receptors, respectively. These studies provide a characterization of the antiproliferative signal mediated by sst5 receptor.

Complete congruence between gene diversity estimates derived from genotypic data at enzyme and random amplified polymorphic DNA loci in black spruce.

Controversy still exists over the adaptive nature of variation of enzyme loci. In conifers, random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) represent a class of marker loci that is unlikely to fall within or be strongly linked to coding DNA. We have compared the genetic diversity in natural populations of black spruce [Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P.] using genotypic data at allozyme loci and RAPD loci as well as phenotypic data from inferred RAPD fingerprints. The genotypic data for both allozymes and RAPDs were obtained from at least six haploid megagametophytes for each of 75 sexually mature individuals distributed in five populations. Heterozygosities and population fixation indices were in complete agreement between allozyme loci and RAPD loci. In black spruce, it is more likely that the similar levels of variation detected at both enzyme and RAPD loci are due to such evolutionary forces as migration and the mating system, rather than to balancing selection and overdominance. Furthermore, we show that biased estimates of expected heterozygosity and among-population differentiation are obtained when using allele frequencies derived from dominant RAPD phenotypes.

Reductive electrochemical formation of 6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran-6-one and 2-benzopyran-1(1H)-one

In the present Letter several carbolactones (oxidative products) are obtained under aprotic cathodic conditions in the preparative scaled electrolysis of 1,2-quinones in a divided electrochemical cell and in the presence of oxygen. When 9,10-phenanthrenequinone is reduced 6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran-6-one and [1,1′-biphenyl]-2,2′-dicarboxylic acid are obtained as major products. In the reduction of 1,2-naphthoquinone, 2-benzopyran-1(1H)-one, and 2-(2-carboxyethenyl)-benzoic acid were formed as main products. The proposed mechanism to explain the formation of these and other products, that involves an electron-transfer reaction to the oxygen in air, is now discussed.

First aromatic ring acetamidation by anodic oxidation

Anodic oxidation of 1-(trifluoromethyl)benzene in dry acetonitrile/Bu4NBF4 under constant potential conditions led to 2-(trifluoromethyl) acetanilide in 86% yield. Other experimental conditions, as the use of constant current or the change in the supporting electrolyte were considered.
