Crystallization behaviour of polyethylene and i-polybutene-1 blends

The mutual influence of the components on the crystallization behaviour of polyblends, namely, isotactic polybutene-1 (PB) with low-density and high-density polyethylene (LDPE and HDPE), has been studied using techniques such as differential scanning calorimetry, infra-red spectroscopy, wide-angle X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, etc. Each component in the blend is observed to crystallize independently. There is phase separation and incompatibility, as shown from tensile properties and scanning electron microscopic observation of the fracture surface of the blend. For HDPE-PE blends (<30% HDPE), unusual form I′ crystals of PB are observed along with the usual form II.

Broadside; For the German mothers of the 12000 Jewish soldiers who fell in combat during World War I Posters and Signs

An die deutschen Muetter! 12000 juedische Soldaten sind fuer das Vaterland auf dem Felde der Ehre gefallen. Christliche und juedische Helden haben gemeinsam gekaempft und ruhen gemeinsam in fremder Erde. 12000 Juden fielen im Kampf! Blindwuetiger Parteihass macht vor den Graebern der Toten nicht halt. Deutsche Frauen, duldet nicht, dass die juedische Muetter in ihrem Schmerz verhoehnt wird. Reichsbund juedischer Frontsoldaten e.V.

Immunological cross-reactivity of mycobacterial topoisomerase I and divergence from other bacteria

Mycobacterium smegmatis topoisomerase I exhibits several distinctive characteristics among all topoisomerases. The enzyme is devoid of Zn2+fingers found typically in other bacterial type I topoisomerases and binds DNA in a site-specific manner. Using polyclonal antibodies, we demonstrate the high degree of relatedness of the enzyme across mycobacteria but not other bacteria. This absence of cross-reactivity from other bacteria indicates that mycobacterial topoisomerase I has diverged from Escherichia coli and other bacteria. We have investigated further the immunological properties of the enzyme by raising a panel of monoclonal antibodies that recognises different antigenically active regions of the enzyme and binds it with widely varied affinity. Inhibition of a C-terminal domain-specific antibody binding by enzyme-specific and non-specific oligonucleotides suggests the possibility of using these monoclonal antibodies to probe the structure, function and in vivo role of the enzyme.
