TY - JOUR T1 - Quantum dot-antibody and aptamer conjugates shift fluorescence upon binding bacteria AN - 20156492; 6158426 AB - CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) exhibited fluorescence emission blue shifts when conjugated to antibodies or DNA aptamers that are bound to bacteria. The intensity of the shifted emission peak increased with the number of bound bacteria. Curiously, the emission was consistently shifted to approximately 440-460 nm, which is distinctly different from the major component of the natural fluorescence spectrum of these QDs. This minor emission peak can grow upon conjugation to antibodies or aptamers and subsequent binding to bacterial cell surfaces. We hypothesize that the wavelength shift is due to changes in the chemical environment of the QD conjugates when they encounter the bacterial surface and may be due to physical deformation of the QD that changes the quantum confinement state. Regardless of the mechanism, these remarkable emission wavelength shifts of greater than 140nm in some cases strongly suggest new applications for QD-receptor conjugates.

Previous reports suggested that the expression of TLR9 is restricted to plasmacytoid dendritic cells and B lymphocytes. Our results indicate that low levels of TLR9 are present on the cell surface of freshly isolated human monocytes, and expression is greatly increased by infection with Yersinia pestis. Enhanced cell surface TLR9 coincided with elevated levels of cytoplasmic TLR9 and recruitment of MyD88. Infected monocytes differentiated into mature dendritic cells, expressed IFN- alpha , and stimulated proliferative and cytotoxic T cell responses specific to Y. pestis. Furthermore, uninfected B cells and monocytes both increased cell surface TLR9, CD86, and HLA-DR in response to treatment with CpG-containing oligonucleotides, whereas cell surface TLR9 was down-modulated on infected dendritic cells by the addition of agonist oligonucleotide. Our results suggest that increased expression of TLR9 on the surface of infected cells may serve a role as an activation signal to other cells of the immune system.

AN - 67232844; 15596018 AB - The seroprevalence of hepatitis C varies substantially between countries and geographic regions. A better understanding of the seroprevalence of this disease, and the risk factors associated with seropositive status, supply data for the development of screening programs and provide insight into the transmission of the disease. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the seroprevalence of hepatitis C and associated risk factors in an urban population in Haiti. A prospective survey for hepatitis C antibodies was conducted among an urban outpatient population in Cap-Haitien, Haiti, with a sample size of 500 subjects. An anonymous 12 question survey, with inquiries related to demographic characteristics and risk factors for HCV acquisition, was concomitantly administered with testing. These demographic and behavioral risk factors were correlated with HCV antibody status using univariate and multivariate tests. The prevalence of positive HCV antibody was 22/500 (4.4%). Subjects that were anti-HCV positive had an average of 7 +/- 8.6 lifetime sexual partners, compared to average of 2.5 +/- 3.5 lifetime sexual partners among HCV-negative subjects (p = 0.02). In a multiple logistic regression model, intravenous drug use (OR 3.7, 1.52-9.03 95% CI) and number of sexual partners (OR 1.1, 1.04-1.20 95% CI) were independently associated with a positive HCV antibody result. A substantial number of subjects with HCV antibodies were detected in this population in Haiti. Further investigation into the correlation between the number of sexual partners and testing positive for hepatitis C antibodies is indicated.

It found that students who used Tutorial CALL to learn highly frequent vocabulary did learn a significantly larger number of words than those in a control group. They decreased their reaction time for frequent word recognition as compared to the control group, & they exhibited significantly better reading comprehension than a control group. The students in the treatment group studied approximately 2,000 of the highly frequent words in English on the computer for 3 hours per week for 8 weeks whereas the students in the control group spent the same amount of time reading texts & doing reading comprehension exercises. Although both groups showed increases in vocabulary gain & reading comprehension, & a decrease in reaction time for frequent word recognition, the treatment students showed significantly greater gains than the control students. 11 Tables, 55 References.

AN - 85407568; pmid-15564824 AB - p63, a member of the p53 family of genes, is vital for normal epithelial development and may play a critical role in epithelial tumor formation. Although p63 has been identified in various head and neck malignancies, a detailed analysis of which of the six isoforms of the p63 gene is present in normal mucosa and head and neck malignancies has not yet been performed. The study analyzed p63 isoform expression on the RNA and protein level in normal, diseased, and malignant mucosa of the head and neck to examine the differential expression of p63 isoforms in head and neck tumors versus adjacent nonmalignant tissue and to identify the predominant p63 isoform expressed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).Three experiments were performed. In experiment 1, p63 expression was analyzed by immunohistochemical analysis in 36 HNSCC specimens and matched normal tissue control specimens harvested from the same patient. Western blot analysis was also performed on matched specimens to confirm the identity of the p63 isoforms that were found. In experiment 2, reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis was performed on matched normal and tumor specimens to analyze and quantitatively compare p63 isoform expression at the RNA level. In experiment 3, p63 expression was evaluated by immunohistochemical analysis in oral lichen planus, a benign mucosal lesion marked by hyperdifferentiation and apoptosis.Immunohistochemical analysis, RT-PCR, and Western blot analysis of p63 were performed on HNSCC specimens and matched normal tissue control specimens. p63 expression in oral lichen planus specimens was also examined by immunohistochemical analysis.In experiment 1, analysis of 36 HNSCC specimens from various head and neck subsites showed p63 expression in all tumors and matched normal tissue specimens (36 of 36). Western blot analyses indicated that dominant negative (DeltaN) isoform p63alpha (DeltaNp63alpha) is the major isoform expressed at the protein level in tumors and adjacent normal tissue. In experiment 2, RT-PCR analyses of 10 matched specimens confirmed that, although all three DeltaNp63 isoforms (DeltaNp63alpha, DeltaNp63beta, and DeltaNp63gamma) are expressed in normal and malignant mucosa of the head and neck, DeltaNp63alpha is the predominant transcript expressed. In experiment 3, immunohistochemical analysis of p63 in the pro-apoptotic condition of lichen planus indicated that p63 is underexpressed as compared with normal mucosal specimens.Although all three DeltaNp63 isoforms are present in HNSCC, DeltaNp63alpha protein is the predominant isoform expressed in these malignancies. DeltaNp63alpha is also overexpressed in tumors compared with matched normal tissue specimens and is underexpressed in the pro-apoptotic condition of lichen planus. These findings suggest that DeltaNp63alpha plays an anti-differentiation and anti-apoptotic role in the mucosal epithelium of the head and neck, possibly playing a pivotal role in the formation of HNSCC. Currently, DeltaNp63alpha is an attractive target for mechanistic study aimed at therapeutic intervention.

AN - 85376951; pmid-15658688 AB - Measurements of the top surface vibration of a buried (inert) VS 2.2 anti-tank plastic landmine reveal significant resonances in the frequency range between 80 and 650 Hz. Resonances from measurements of the normal component of the acoustically induced soil surface particle velocity (due to sufficient acoustic-to-seismic coupling) have been used in detection schemes. Since the interface between the top plate and the soil responds nonlinearly to pressure fluctuations, characteristics of landmines, the soil, and the interface are rich in nonlinear physics and allow for a method of buried landmine detection not previously exploited. Tuning curve experiments (revealing "softening" and a back-bone curve linear in particle velocity amplitude versus frequency) help characterize the nonlinear resonant behavior of the soil-landmine oscillator. The results appear to exhibit the characteristics of nonlinear mesoscopic elastic behavior, which is explored. When two primary waves f1 and f2 drive the soil over the mine near resonance, a rich spectrum of nonlinearly generated tones is measured with a geophone on the surface over the buried landmine in agreement with Donskoy [SPIE Proc. 3392, 221-217 (1998); 3710, 239-246 (1999)]. In profiling, particular nonlinear tonals can improve the contrast ratio compared to using either primary tone in the spectrum.

Treatment included the Lee Silverman Voice Treatment(R) (LSVT) program followed by six weeks of speech-breathing training, physical therapy, & LSVT-type tasks. In this article, we report a new patient with similar speech characteristics post-TBI. Breathing-for-Speech Treatment (BST), custom designed to improve nonspeech- & speech-breathing coordination, was followed by LSVT. After BST, speech breathing approached normal levels; after LSVT, speech breathing improved further & intelligibility improved markedly. Gains generally were maintained up to four months, but were limited by the spastic characteristics of his dysarthria & sporadic medical complications. 1 Table, 1 Figure, 8 References.

AN - 67236435; 15648760 AB - Determination of the most sensitive and susceptible organismal life stage is important for use of the organism in toxicity assessments of environmental pollutants. In the present study, the sensitivities and susceptibilities of larval developmental stages of two black fly sibling species, Simulium vittatum Zetterstedt cytospecies IS-7 and S. vittatum Zetterstedt cytospecies IIIL-1, were determined using the organophosphate-insecticide chlorpyrifos. Differences in sensitivity and susceptibility were determined through analysis of slopes and median lethal concentration values produced from 24-h orbital shaker toxicity tests, respectively. The results showed no difference in sensitivity or susceptibility between sibling species. However, early instar (second and third) as well as mid-instar (fourth and fifth) groupings of S. vittatum IS-7 were significantly more susceptible than late-instar (sixth and seventh) larval groupings. Likewise, mid-instar groupings of S. vittatum IIIL-1 were more susceptible than late-instar larval groupings. However, neither species showed significant differences in sensitivity among instar groupings. The results of the present study indicate that the mid-instar groupings of black fly larvae are the best choice for use in toxicity tests, both because of their increased susceptibility compared to late-instar groupings and because of their ease in handling and manipulating in the laboratory compared to early instar groupings.

The present study builds on an organization-contextual perspective in order to focus on how variation in the organizational characteristics of the IT industry in Korea produces advantages for its effectiveness. While organizational effectiveness is specified by financial robustness, a stratified random sample of 120 Korean IT firms is estimated by several regression models. Although the key predictor variables differ depending on the effectiveness outcome measure considered, variables are chosen on the basis of their potential for offering theoretical insights, and each variable represents one of several organizational properties of a firm. The results confirm that the size variable is still in the conventional wisdom, but the previous mechanisms in Korea such as conglomeration with chaebol groups, export-oriented strategy, and family-controlled factors no longer work in the IT industry. This change is further suggested by the importance of information network systems and IT investment, as well as unusual income and firm's age in affecting organizational effectiveness. The potential implications of these findings and suggestions for future study are discussed. Adapted from the source document.

Observations from within the CRREL permafrost tunnel near Fairbanks, Alaska, indicate that layered, lenticular-layered and micro-lenticular cryogenic structures are characteristic of this type of permafrost. In contrast, reticulate cryogenic structures indicate local thaw modification. During the growth of syngenetic permafrost, episodes of thermokarst erosion may operate preferentially along ice wedges leading to the development of gullies and tunnels in the near-surface sediments. The local thaw unconformities that result are inferred by the recognition of thermokarst-cave ice ("pool" ice), and various soil and ice pseudomorphs. These may be regarded as further characteristics of syngenetic permafrost growth. Abstract Copyright (2004), Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In addition, a global measurement of the average hydraulic conductivity of the soil-bentonite backfill in one of the cutoff walls was made using the pilot-scale test facility. Two main factors distinguish these five different methods of measuring hydraulic conductivity: remolding and sample size. Remolding of samples tested in American Petroleum Institute filter press equipment significantly reduced their hydraulic conductivity compared to the hydraulic conductivity of undisturbed samples, which were of similar size. For the other tests, where the degree and extent of remolding were less significant, hydraulic conductivity was found to increase as sample size increased, with the global measurement producing the highest value. The existence of bentonite filter cakes on trench walls reduces the influence of sample size on the equivalent hydraulic conductivity of the barrier. Findings regarding locating defects with a piezocone and hydraulic fracture in piezometer tests are also presented.

Four modeling approaches were applied to represent the U(VI) adsorption data. Model I was a two-site, diffuse double layer, surface complexation model based on data for synthetic ferrihydrite [Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta 58 (1994) 5465-5478]. Considering the magnitude of approximations necessary for application of the laboratory-based model to natural sands, Model I was surprisingly accurate, as determined by the goodness of fit parameter, chi (super 2) /N of 53.1-22.2. Model II was based on the reactions and diffuse double layer treatment of Model I, but was calibrated to a portion of U(VI) adsorption data for each sand, and then used to predict adsorption data for the same sand under different experimental conditions. Model II did not increase the accuracy of the predictions made with Model I, chi (super 2) /N of 42.4-27.6. Models III and IV were four-site affinity spectrum models, without an explicit electric double layer model or explicit surface hydrolysis reactions. Model III was based on a discrete log K spectrum approach, and Model IV was obtained from adjusting all surface stability constants and site concentrations for all surface sites. Models III and IV represented the U(VI) adsorption data with the greatest accuracy, chi (super 2) /N ranged from 13.8 to 4.4. Model I provides evidence supporting the practice of using pure phase thermodynamic reaction constants for describing the adsorption characteristics of environmentally important sorbents in certain simple cases. Yet, affinity spectrum approaches (Models III and IV) become increasingly important as more accurate interpolation of adsorption data is necessary, the sorbent becomes increasingly complex, or the range of experimental conditions expands.

Ten methods of computing slope from distributed elevation data, utilizing capabilities inherent in five different geographic information systems (GIS), were compared with field measurements of slope. The methods were compared based on (1) overall estimation performance, (2) estimation accuracy, (3) estimation precision, and (4) independence of estimation errors and the magnitude of field measured slopes. A method utilizing a very high resolution digital elevation model (DEM) (1 m) produced slightly better estimates of slope than approaches utilizing somewhat lower resolution DEMs (2-5.2 m), and significantly better estimates than a method utilizing a 12.5 m DEM. The more accurate method was significantly biased, however, frequently underestimating actual slope. Methods that averaged or smoothed high resolution DEMs over larger areas also produced good estimates of slope, but these were somewhat less accurate in areas of shallow slopes. Methods utilizing differential geometry to compute percent slope from DEMs outperformed methods utilizing trigonometric functions. Errors in slope computation are exaggerated in soil erosion prediction models because erosion typically increases as a power function of slope.

In its original form, the only effects vegetation had on FASST were to change the surface albedo and emissivity. Recently, a two tier, multilayer vegetation algorithm was added. These can be implemented separately or together. Both alter the soil surface energy and moisture budgets. In this report we will discuss the energy balance equations used to solve for the low vegetation, canopy and ground temperatures. In solving these equations, the effects of precipitation interception and soil moisture modification attributable to root-uptake are incorporated.

AN - 50103727; 2006-036629 AB - Are the amounts of explosives leaking from UXO significant compared to other sources? To answer this question we compiled data on the contamination released by above ground detonations of different order and by the rupture or corrosion of UXO. The results indicate that low-order detonations, be they from malfunctioning munitions or sympathetic detonations, are currently the largest contributors to range contamination. Also, dissolution of the explosive charge from heavily corroded UXO is significant and will increase in importance with time. Unfortunately, only order-of-magnitude estimates are possible due to shortage of data on the actual fates experienced by different types of munitions. However, the framework used here for compiling and ranking the explosive sources can help guide policy-making and future research activity to reduce range contamination.

Application to a closed system resulted in damped oscillations in algal biomass and phosphate relative to a model with fixed composition. Peak biomass did not differ substantially, however, from that attained using a model with fixed, minimal phosphorus-to- carbon ratio. Sensitivity analyses were conducted following model application to the lower St. Johns River, Florida. Factor-of-two changes in key parameters had little influence on computed chlorophyll. Varying model parameters exerted a larger influence on dissolved phosphate concentration. We conclude Droop kinetics present a mechanism for regulating computed nutrient concentrations rather than computed chlorophyll concentrations.

Biotic and abiotic controls of the compositions and activities of burrow and tube microbial communities are poorly understood. The microbial communities in tubes of the marine infaunal polychaete Diopatria cuprea collected from two different sediment habitats were examined. The bacterial communities in the tubes from a sandy sediment differed from those in the tubes from a muddy sediment. The difference in community structure also extended to the sulfate-reducing bacterial (SRB) assemblage, although it was not as pronounced for this functional group of species. PCR-amplified 16S rRNA gene sequences recovered from Diopatra tube SRB by clonal library construction and screening were all related to the family DESULFOBACTERIACEAE: This finding was supported by phospholipid fatty acid analysis and by hybridization of 16S rRNA probes specific for members of the genera Desulfosarcina, Desulfobacter, Desulfobacterium, Desulfobotulus, Desulfococcus, and Desulfovibrio and some members of the genera Desulfomonas, Desulfuromonas, and Desulfomicrobium with 16S rRNA gene sequences resolved by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis. Two of six SRB clones from the clone library were not detected in tubes from the sandy sediment. The habitat in which the D. cuprea tubes were constructed had a strong influence on the tube bacterial community as a whole, as well as on the SRB assemblage.

We sought to define the correlation between HER2/neu expression and risk for prostate cancer recurrence and then determine the potential efficacy of anti-HER2/neu vaccination in prostate cancer patients at risk for recurrence. The risk for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) recurrence in 95 patients undergoing prostatectomy at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC) was calculated and correlated to HER2/neu expression, as determined by immunohistochemical staining. Peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) were then isolated from six consecutive human leukocyte antigen (HLA) A2 super(+) patients with HER2/neu super(+) prostate tumors. These PBL were grown in parallel cultures and stimulated either with no peptide, HER2/neu E75 peptide, or control peptide. The cultures were compared for stimulated proliferation, induced peptide-specific cytotoxicity and tumor-specific cytotoxicity. When assessed by risk group, 69% of the high risk patients' tumors over-expressed HER2/neu compared to 47% of the intermediate risk group (p<0.05). Evaluation of the in vitro immune response of PBL isolated from six consecutive prostate cancer patients revealed a statistically significant increase in E75-stimulated lymphocytic proliferation. E75-stimulated lymphocytes demonstrated an E75-specific cytolytic response in 6/6 prostate cancer patients that increased with successive stimulations. Moreover, these E75-specific lymphocytes also demonstrated tumor-specific lysis against HER2/neu-expressing prostate cancer cell lines. The majority of prostate cancer patients at high risk for recurrence have HER2/neu expressing tumors. Hence, HER2/neu is a viable target for immunotherapeutics such as preventative immunization strategies with HER2/neu peptide vaccines.

Silt fences were used to trap sediment transport from zero-order ephemeral swales at the edge of and within SMZs. Four control swales and nine treatment swales were studied. A double mass curve approach was used to graphically compare sediment accumulation rates at the edge of SMZs to accumulation rates within the SMZs at a distance consistent with current recommendations for SMZ width in Georgia. SMZ efficiencies for trapping sediment transported by concentrated flow ranged from 71 to 99 percent. No statistical model was found to explain how SMZ efficiencies varied with SMZ and contributing area characteristics. Measured sediment accumulations at the SMZ boundary were compared to Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) predictions of upslope erosion, and a delivery ratio of 0.25 was calculated. SMZs had a quantifiable and substantial ameliorating effect on sediment transport from concentrated overland flow on the clearcut study sites.

PURPOSE: To determine whether postoperative functional knee bracing influences outcomes. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, multicenter clinical trial. METHODS: One hundred volunteers from the 3 US service academies with acute anterior cruciate ligament tears were randomized into braced or nonbraced groups. Only those subjects with anterior cruciate ligament tears treated surgically within the first 8 weeks of injury were included. Patients with chondral injuries, significant meniscal tears, or multiple knee ligament injuries were excluded. Surgical procedures and the postoperative physical therapy protocols were identical for both groups. The braced group was instructed to wear an off-the- shelf functional knee brace for all cutting, pivoting, or jumping activities for the first year after surgery. RESULTS: Ninety-five subjects were available with a minimum 2-year follow-up. There were no statistically significant differences between groups in knee stability, functional testing with the single-legged hop test, International Knee Documentation Committee scores, Lysholm scores, knee range of motion, or isokinetic strength testing. Two braced subjects had reinjuries, and 3 nonbraced subjects had reinjuries. CONCLUSIONS: In this young, active population, postoperative bracing does not appear to change the clinical outcomes after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Despite discontinuation of the statin, symptoms progressed and required conventional steroid therapy for remission. The association between statins and the development of a musculocutaneous syndrome closely resembling dermatomyositis in susceptible subjects is poorly understood and has been reported rarely. The purpose of this report is to provide additional support for this pathological association. Since the population receiving statins is large and rapidly growing, caregivers are urged to be alert regarding the early recognition and proper care of the spectrum of neuromuscular complications linked to statin intake.

Most real-time PCR assays for B. anthracis have been developed to detect virulence genes located on the pXO1 and pXO2 plasmids. In contrast, only two published chromosomal targets exist, the rpoB gene and the gyrA gene. In the present study, subtraction- hybridization with a plasmid-cured B. anthracis tester strain and a Bacillus cereus driver was used to find a unique chromosomal sequence. By targeting this region, a real-time assay was developed with the Ruggedized Advanced Pathogen Identification Device. Further testing has revealed that the assay has 100% sensitivity and 100% specificity, with a limit of detection of 50 fg of DNA. The results of a search for sequences with homology with the BLAST program demonstrated significant alignment to the recently published B. anthracis Ames strain, while an inquiry for protein sequence similarities indicated homology with an abhydrolase from B. anthracis strain A2012. The importance of this chromosomal assay will be to verify the presence of B. anthracis independently of plasmid occurrence.

This study investigated local injection site irritation associated with i.v., paravenous (p.v.), intramuscular (i.m.) and subcutaneous (s.c.) injection of HSD or its individual components. Mice (n = 10 per group per time point) and rabbits (n = 10 per group per time point) were infused i.v. with the maximum tolerated dose (28 or 20 ml kg super(-1), respectively) of HSD, HS, Dextran-70 (D-70) or lactated Ringer's solution (LR). Animals were observed at 1,2 and 4 h after injection and then twice daily until euthanized on day 3 or 14. In irritation studies, 24 rabbits were randomized to receive the four fluids and they were evaluated histologically at 4, 24, 48 or 72 h after i.v., p.v., i.m. or s.c. infusion. The sites were observed immediately after injection, at 4 h and then twice daily until euthanasia. In surviving mice, bruising of the tail was observed in 6/18 and 5/19 animals in the HSD and HS groups, respectively, compared with 0/20 animals in the D-70 or LR groups. Sloughing of the tail was eventually observed in two HSD-infused and three HS-infused mice, compared with none in the other groups. More bruises, hematomas and blebs were observed after i.v. or s.c. injection of HS and D-70 than LR or HSD in the rabbit irritation studies, but the differences among groups were not statistically significant. In the acute toxicity study in rabbits, bruising at the site of injection was observed in 7/20 and 5/14 surviving animals from the HSD and HS groups, respectively, but none was observed in the LR or D-70 groups. These data suggest that, if infused over 5-10 min into a peripheral or central vein, a therapeutic dose of HSD (4 ml kg super(-1)) should not induce any greater inflammation on the vein than LR. However, if significant extravasation of hypertonic fluid occurs, the possibility of localized, focal necrosis might be expected to occur.

The range in the appropriate model parameters was determined from experimental data. The model parameters were refined by running finite-element models of a radially confined uniaxial compression test and a plate sinkage test and comparing these results with laboratory and field experiments of the same. This effort resulted in the development of two sets of model parameters for low density snow, one set that is applicable for weak or "soft" snow and a second set that is representative of stronger or "hard" (aged or sintered) snow. Together, these models provide a prediction of the upper and lower bound of the macroscale snow response in this density range. Furthermore, the modeled snow compaction density agrees well with measured data. These models were used to simulate a tire rolling through new fallen snow and showed good agreement with the available field data over the same depth and density range.

This note presents equations for use in a screening procedure to evaluate the impact of a CDF on groundwater. The hydrologic evaluation of leachate production and quality model was used to simulate leachate production and transport through the foundation considering a range of foundation soil characteristics and contaminant properties. The model results were used to develop predictive equations of contaminant attenuation and travel time in the foundation soils. When used with equations to predict dispersion in the aquifer, contaminant exposures at receptor locations can be predicted, which is essential in leachate screening applications. The approach does not consider degradation or permanent sequestration of contaminants. Therefore, the procedure is conservative in that it may overestimate actual leachate concentrations and underestimate actual travel times.

Applications were made on 1-ha plots with rates based on plot type: references (0 mg acid equivalent (ae) times L super(-1)), protected plots (0.5 mg ae times L super(-1)), semi-protected plots (1.0 mg ae times L super(-1)), and unprotected plots (1.5 mg ae times L super(-1)). Plot protection was a function of potential mixing in the water column. Herbicide residues were monitored to determine dissipation 1 through 72 h post treatment. Samples were analyzed with both a high performance liquid chromatography technique and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method. Results from these two analytical techniques were compared, and found equivalent (R super(2) = 0.96). Triclopyr had a relatively short half-life for each treatment (3.5 hr at 0.5 mg ae times L super(-1), 2.9 hr at 1.0 mg ae times L super(-1), and 4.2 hr at 1.5 mg ae times L super(-1)). At 8 weeks post treatment, there was a 30 to 45% reduction in Eurasian watermilfoil distribution. Greatest Eurasian watermilfoil control was achieved in plots using higher triclopyr rates. Frequency of native plants decreased by 24% in the untreated reference plot, 20% in the 0.5 mg ae times L super(-1) plot and 6% in the 1.0 and 1.5 mg ae times L super(-1) plots. Mean species per point, however, either increased or remained unchanged in seven of the nine treated plots. Decline of native plants may be partially attributed to the onset of fall senescence. Larger contiguous areas, higher triclopyr rates, and sequential applications may be required to enhance Eurasian watermilfoil control in small-plot, partial lake treatments.

The model successfully reproduces the observations while maintaining realistic calculations of algal carbon, chlorophyll, limiting nutrient, and light attenuation. Computed primary production in light-limited regions is proportional to the algal growth rate. Successful computation of primary production in nutrient-depleted waters depends on the formulation and magnitude of the model predation term. Our quadratic formulation mimics a predator population that is closely coupled to algal biomass and rapidly recycles nutrients from algal biomass to available form.

AN - 67024725; 15326180 AB - The Escherichia coli adenine DNA glycosylase, MutY, plays an important role in the maintenance of genomic stability by catalyzing the removal of adenine opposite 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine or guanine in duplex DNA. Although the x-ray crystal structure of the catalytic domain of MutY revealed a mechanism for catalysis of the glycosyl bond, it appeared that several opportunistically positioned lysine side chains could participate in a secondary beta-elimination reaction. In this investigation, it is established via site-directed mutagenesis and the determination of a 1.35-A structure of MutY in complex with adenine that the abasic site (apurinic/apyrimidinic) lyase activity is alternatively regulated by two lysines, Lys142 and Lys20. Analyses of the crystallographic structure also suggest a role for Glu161 in the apurinic/apyrimidinic lyase chemistry. The beta-elimination reaction is structurally and chemically uncoupled from the initial glycosyl bond scission, indicating that this reaction occurs as a consequence of active site plasticity and slow dissociation of the product complex. MutY with either the K142A or K20A mutation still catalyzes beta and beta-delta elimination reactions, and both mutants can be trapped as covalent enzyme-DNA intermediates by chemical reduction. The trapping was observed to occur both pre- and post-phosphodiester bond scission, establishing that both of these intermediates have significant half-lives. Thus, the final spectrum of DNA products generated reflects the outcome of a delicate balance of closely related equilibrium constants.

AN - 67023641; 15339932 AB - The recently identified human NEIL2 (Nei-like-2) protein, a DNA glycosylase/AP lyase specific for oxidatively damaged bases, shares structural features and reaction mechanism with the Escherichia coli DNA glycosylases, Nei and Fpg. Amino acid sequence analysis of NEIL2 suggested it to have a zinc finger-like Nei/Fpg. However, the Cys-X2-His-X16-Cys-X2-Cys (CHCC) motif present near the C terminus of NEIL2 is distinct from the zinc finger motifs of Nei/Fpg, which are of the C4 type. Here we show the presence of an equimolar amount of zinc in NEIL2 by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Individual mutations of Cys-291, His-295, Cys-315, and Cys-318, candidate residues for coordinating zinc, inactivated the enzyme by abolishing its DNA binding activity. H295A and C318S mutants were also shown to lack bound zinc, and a significant change in their secondary structure was revealed by CD spectra analysis. Molecular modeling revealed Arg-310 of NEIL2 to be a critical residue in its zinc binding pocket, which is highly conserved throughout the Fpg/Nei family. A R310Q mutation significantly reduced the activity of NEIL2. We thereby conclude that the zinc finger motif in NEIL2 is essential for its structural integrity and enzyme activity.

The objectives were to determine the spatial distribution and best approach for collecting representative surface soil samples to estimate mean concentrations of residues of high explosives at two types of potential source zones: (1) an area near a low-order PARTIAL detonation of an 81-mm mortar and (2) an artillery/mortar target. Soil sampling near the low- order detonation revealed the presence of potential 'hot spots' and showed that the concentrations of RDX and TNT ranged over five orders of magnitude. The range of concentrations was reduced to a factor of about 60 when randomly collected 25-increment composite samples were collected within this area. The range reduced further to about a factor of three for four simulated (i.e., existing discrete values) 25-increment systematically derived composite samples. Thus a vast improvement in the repeatability of replicate samples can be achieved using composite sampling approaches. Composite samples collected around a target showed that the distribution of energetic residues was random and overall the concentrations were much lower than around the partially detonated round.

AN - 67300335; 15868479 AB - Studies were conducted to examine the effect of two vesicant chemical warfare agents (VCWA), one of them an arsenical, on cytokine gene expression in normal human epidermal keratinocyte (NHEK) cells. We tested 2,2'-dichlorethylsulfide (sulfur mustard, military designation HD) and 2,chlorovinyldichloroarsine (Lewisite, military designation L), which have significant differences in their chemical, physical, and toxicological properties. Human tumor necrosis factor-alpha (hTNF-alpha) cytokine was detected by using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, a protein multiplex immunoassay, Luminex100, and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The messenger RNA expression of hTNF-alpha was determined to provide a semi-quantitative analysis. HD-stimulated NHEK induced secretion of hTNF-alpha in a dose-dependent manner. Dose response effect of Lewisite decreased hTNF-alpha levels. Time-response data indicated that the maximum response for HD occurred at 24 h with an associated cytotoxic concentration of 10(-4) mol/L. NHEK cells stimulated with 10(-4) mol/L HD for 24 h at 37 degrees C increased detectable levels of hTNF-alpha from 5 to 28 ng/ml at an index of cell viability between 85 to 93% as detected by Luminex100. Our results indicated that the increased levels of hTNF-alpha by HD are dependent on the primary cultures, cell densities, and chemical properties of the stimulation. Lewisite under the same conditions as HD caused a reduction of hTNF-alpha from control levels of 1.5 ng/ml to 0.3 ng/ml after stimulation (10(-4) mol/L), with an index of cell viability of reverse similar 34%. We analyzed the transcriptional of hTNF-alpha gene and found that HD (10(-6) to 10(-4) mol/L) activates hTNF-alpha gene in cultured NHEK and that L at 10(-6) to 10(-4) mol/L markedly reduces hTNF-alpha gene. We conclude that the pro-inflammatory mediator, hTNF-alpha, could be a potential biomarker for differentiating between exposure of HD or L.

AN - 66998694; 15499500 AB - Red-backed salamanders (Plethodon cinereus) were exposed to four different concentrations of 1,3,5-trinitrohexahydro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) in soil under controlled laboratory conditions for 28 days. Wild-caught P. cinereus (N = 20/treatment) were exposed to target concentrations of 5,000, 1000, 100, 10, and 0 mg RDX/kg soil (dry wt) using a microcosm design. Animals were fed 5 to 10 uncontaminated mutant Drosophila flies every 3 days and monitored daily. Animals were weighed 1 day before being placed in treatment and weekly thereafter. RDX concentrations in soil were analytically determined after the compound was added and mixed at the beginning, the midpoint, and the end of exposure. RDX soil concentrations were relatively stable throughout the exposure period. Signs of overt toxicity were observed primarily in the highest exposure group. Salamanders exposed to 5,000 mg RDX/kg soil exhibited signs of neuromuscular effects (lethargy, gaping, hypersensitivity, tremors) and exhibited significant weight loss. A single moribund animal from this group lost >20% of its original body weight and was killed. Animals in this exposure group also lost weight relative to animals in other treatments. Histopathologic evaluations, including an evaluation of melanomacrophage parameters, indicated no strong treatment-related findings.

They represent the largest mass flux (MF) of extraterrestrial material (30,000+ or -20,000 t/yr) to the present-day Earth. Studies of large collections of MMs suggest that about 20% have not been heated to high temperatures and that they contain organic carbon. Since non-protein amino acids have been found in some carbonaceous meteorites, they might also be found in unmelted MMs. However, previous searches for amino acids in MMs were inconclusive. We combined a new extraction method for amino acids with a highly sensitive analytical method to detect and quantitate amino acids in MMs collected at the South Pole. We found the non-protein amino acid alpha -amino isobutyric acid (AIB) in one of our samples. The non-detection of this amino acid in the other samples analyzed suggests that there are amino acid-containing and amino acid-free MMs, with approximately 14% of the MMs containing AIB. Since the MF of MMs is much higher than that of carbonaceous chondrites (CMs), amino acids in these small particles would represent an important source of exogenous delivery of organic molecules. Therefore, the results are discussed on the basis of their implications for astrobiology.

This study uses trace element concentration of beryl, feldspar, and muscovite to address two issues: 1) stopping use of gems as a terrorist funding source; and 2) understanding changes in magmatitc and aqueous process during pegmatite crystallization. Current open-source intelligence shows that gems, especially tanzanite, diamond, and emerald, are used as a terrorist funding source. Locating the source mine of these gems is critical to diminish terrorist funding. In this pilot study, trace element concentrations of beryls, feldspars, and muscovite from the core, core margin, intermediate, and wall zones of six pegmatites from the Palermo district, North Groton, New Hampshire, are compared to each other and to nine beryls from seven countries (Afghanistan, Brazil, China, India, Mozambique, Namibia, and Pakistan). LIBS (Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy) and ICP-MS analyses provide complementary data and advantages. LIBS records the visible emission spectrum of a plasma produced by intense laser ablation pulses (10 (super -9) s). Although LIBS quantitative analysis is still in development, LIBS has enormous potential because: 1) essentially no sample preparation is necessary; and 2) portable LIBS is now commercially available. For the current study, qualitative LIBS spectra are accompanied by quantitative ICP-MS analyses. The following observations suggest that trace element ratios of pegmatite gems can be used to trace a gem to its source pegmatite. Preliminary LIBS element intensity ratios show that beryls from Palermo pegmatite #1 (n=11) have higher Fe/Ti (1.42-2.53), Fe/Mg (1.28 to 4.22), and Fe/Zr (1.27-9.99) than the world samples Fe/Ti (0.89-1.51), Fe/Mg (0.85-1.40), and Fe/Zr (0.70-1.60). Beryl from Palermo #2 (Fe/Ti=0.95, Fe/Mg=1.11, Fe/Zr=0.81) is also distinct from Palermo #1. Element ratios vary slightly between beryls from different zones in Palermo #1. Beryls from the core margin have higher Fe/Ti and Fe/Mg, and lower Na/K than beryls in the surrounding intermediate and core zones, suggesting that trace element ratios in minerals are indicators of pegmatite processes. However, this variability needs to be fully assessed if this technique is to be used in the fight against terrorism.

Therefore, the concern that training with live munitions potentially generates undesirable residual constituents is of interest. The objective of this study is to develop techniques for assessing the potential for environmental contamination from energetic materials on testing and training ranges. The project defines the physical and chemical properties, concentrations, and distribution of residues in soils, and the potential for transport of these residues to groundwater. Surface soils associated with impact craters, targets areas, and firing points were characterized on 18 military installations in the United States and Canada. Residues from high- order, low-order, unconfined charge, and blow-in-place detonations were collected on witness plates, snow, and/or tarps for constituent analyses. Results of these analyses were used to characterize residue composition and spatial distribution in relationship to the types of training activities conducted. Results also contributed to development of surface soil sampling strategies for live-fire ranges. Transport parameters of contaminants of potential concern for which data are lacking were determined by leveraging this project with other landing sources.

This report presents the comprehensive analysis and discussion for the entire Lake Thompson Bed contained within Edwards AFB. This study used the ecological land classification (ELC) method for developing ecosystem maps. The concept of an ELC is to integrate ecosystems and landforms into one coherent system with functionally related parts. The study area for the ecosystem map is the boundary of the Pleistocene Lake Thompson Bed within Edwards AFB. The ELC maps are secondary products developed from primary field data. Two mapping teams independently mapped the vegetation communities and the landforms of the study area. The characteristics of the landform and vegetation map units were used to create and describe map units for ELC maps. Samples were collected around Pleistocene Lake Thompson Bed to characterize soil chemistry, vegetation, geomorphic, and other descriptive environmental features. Analyses of the data attempted to test the interaction between geomorphic features, vegetative communities, and sampled environmental parameters. Overall, it appears that soil texture plays an important role in the development and relationships with geomorphology, soil chemistry, and vegetation. Geologically the playa surface was less heterogeneous initially, in terms of geomorphic units. As Lake Thompson Bed began to dry out in response to climate changes, dunes and alluvial fans began to form. The result was a landscape with a higher degree of soil texture variability than had existed on the initial lakebed surface. Soil texture sorting across the landscape, along with climate changes, drove the current distribution pattern of vegetation.

Depending on flow magnitude, ice covers modify the interaction, doing so over a range of scales in space and time. This report is an in-depth review of the impacts of river ice covers on sediment transport. The following topics are covered: ice-cover influences on flow distribution; sediment transport by ice (i.e., sediment included in drifting ice); sediment transport under ice; and ice influences on channel morphology. The flow distribution in channels can be substantially modified by river ice. The impacts can include raised water levels, laterally redistributed flow, reduced velocity of secondary currents, and other effects. Drifting ice can be an important transport mechanism for sediment transport, and the known pathways are described. Sediment transport under ice is described in terms of key non-dimensional parameters characterizing the dynamics of flow and sediment interaction. Finally, the extent to which the seasonal formation and breakup of ice perturbs the stability of alluvial channels in regions subject to frigid winters is described.

Our objectives were to identify important mussel resources, to devise methods for minimizing dredging risks, and to identify habitat improvement features. Approximately 60% of the fauna was located on two high-density shoals characterized by extreme dominance of the commercially valuable threeridge (Amblema plicata). Shallow nearshore and main channel areas comprised approximately 10 and 88% of the aquatic habitat in the project area; however, these areas were of less importance for mussels and supported densities of approximately 5 and 0.5 individuals/m super(2), respectively. Throughout the project area the mussel fauna exhibited little or no evidence of recent recruitment, dominance of relatively few species (either A. plicata, or the bank climber Plectomerus dombeyanus), and low species diversity (H') and evenness.No federally listed endangered or threatened mussels were found, although the pyramid pigtoe (Pleurobema pyramidatum), a species listed as endangered in Mississippi, was collected in and upstream of the project area. Two other state-listed species, Plethobasus cyphyus (sheepnose) and Quadrula cylindrica (rabbitsfoot), were only found on gravelly shoals upriver of the project area. Maintenance plans were redesigned to minimize environmental damage; a hydraulic cutterhead dredge will be used in most of the mainstem to reduce risk to nearshore habitats.

Only doxycycline has proven to have chemoprophylactic and therapeutic efficacy for both malaria and leptospirosis. To assess whether other traditional antimalarial agents have antileptospiral activity, we performed broth microdilution susceptibility testing of 16 Leptospira serovars (6 species/14 serogroups) to various agents. Artemisinin, atovaquone, chloroquine, mefloquine, primaquine, proguanil, pyrimethamine, sulfadoxine, quinine, quinidine, and combinations of atovaquone/proguanil and pyrimethamine/sulfadoxine all had a 90% minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC sub(90)) > 25 mu g/mL (the upper limit of testing). The only agents identified with the potential to treat both infections other than doxycycline (MIC sub(90) = 1.56 mu g/mL) were azithromycin (MIC sub(90) = 0.002 mu g/mL) and clindamycin (MIC sub(90) = 0.2 mu g/mL).

The role of quorum sensing (QS) in the in vivo pathogenicity of B. pseudomallei via inhalational exposure of BALB/c mice and intraperitoneal challenge of Syrian hamsters has not been reported. This investigation demonstrates that B. pseudomallei encodes a minimum of three luxl and five luxR homologues that are involved in animal pathogenicity. Mass spectrometry analysis of culture supernatants revealed that wild-type B. pseudomallei and the luxl mutants synthesized numerous signalling molecules, including N-octanoyl-homoserine lactone, N-decanoyl-homoserine lactone, N-(3-hydroxyoctanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone, N-(3-hydroxydecanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone and N-(3-oxotetradecanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone, which was further confirmed by heterologous expression of the B. pseudomallei luxl alleles in Escherichia coli. Mutagenesis of the B. pseudomallei QS system increased the time to death and reduced organ colonization of aerosolized BALB/c mice. Further, intraperitoneal challenge of Syrian hamsters with the B. pseudomallei QS mutants resulted in a significant increase in the LD sub(50). Using semi-quantitative plate assays, preliminary analysis suggests that QS does not affect lipase, protease and phospholipase C biosynthesis/secretion in B. pseudomallei. The findings of the investigation demonstrate that B. pseudomallei encodes multiple luxlR genes, and disruption of the QS alleles reduces animal pathogenicity, but does not affect exoproduct secretion.

An in silico analysis of the Burkholderia mallei ATCC 23344 genome revealed that it encodes at least two luxI and four luxR homologues. Using mass spectrometry, we showed that wild-type B. mallei produces the signaling molecules N-octanoyl- homoserine lactone and N-decanoyl-homoserine lactone. To determine if QS is involved in the virulence of B. mallei, we generated mutations in each putative luxIR homologue and tested the pathogenicities of the derivative strains in aerosol BALB/c mouse and intraperitoneal hamster models. Disruption of the B. mallei QS alleles, especially in RJ16 (bmaII) and RJ17 (bmaI3), which are luxI mutants, significantly reduced virulence, as indicated by the survival of mice who were aerosolized with 10 super(4) CFU (10 50% lethal doses [LD sub(50)s]). For the B. mallei transcriptional regulator mutants (luxR homologues), mutation of the bmaR5 allele resulted in the most pronounced decrease in virulence, with 100% of the challenged animals surviving a dose of 10 LD sub(50)s. Using a Syrian hamster intraperitoneal model of infection, we determined the LD sub(50)s for wild-type B. mallei and each QS mutant. An increase in the relative LD sub(50) was found for RJ16 (bmaI1) (>967 CFU), RJ17 (bmaI3) (115 CFU), and RJ20 (bmaR5) (151 CFU) compared to wild-type B. mallei (<13 CFU). These findings demonstrate that B. mallei carries multiple luxIR homologues that either directly or indirectly regulate the biosynthesis of an essential virulence factor(s) that contributes to the pathogenicity of B. mallei in vivo.

Snow depth, wetness, and slope varied greatly along the 2.4-km transect, with 640 m of relief. Radar measurements taken in the morning, when the snowpack was frozen were compared against concurrent manual depth probes, and good agreement was found between the estimates. The results suggest that deep snowpacks in rugged terrain can be accurately and safely surveyed by helicopter-borne radar.

Since 1940, the lake water level has risen over 13.5m and salinity has decreased. Devils Lake consists of a series of interconnected basins with sulfate concentration increasing in an eastward direction from 450mg/l in West Bay to 3000mg/l in East Devils Lake. Using sulfate as a tracer and linking measurements of specific conductance with observed time series of water surface elevations, wind, and water velocity, this paper illustrates the magnitude and dynamics of mass transport and exchange processes between the multiple basins of Devils Lake. Measurements show small horizontal salinity gradients within the lake basins, but large salinity gradients in some of the exchange zones connecting basins. Vertical salinity gradients were observed in small basins and near exchange zones with strong horizontal salinity differentials. These instances of vertical stratification were associated with buoyancy driven exchange flows and wind sheltering. Exchange flow velocities between selected basins were correlated with wind direction and speed. Interbasin exchange flows were found to reverse direction frequently in response to the prevailing wind direction. Flow direction frequencies in one specific exchange zone were 31% west to east, 48% east to west, and 21% bidirectional (stratified). At the lake level observed in 2000, time averaged, measured interbasin exchange flow rates were 30--40m super(3)/s compared to tributary inflow rates to the lake of 3--9m super(3)/s.

AN - 85406704; pmid-15560325 AB - The lateralization of cognitive abilities is influenced by a number of factors, including handedness, sex, and developmental maturation. To date, a small number of studies have examined sex differences in the lateralization of cognitive and affective functions, and in only few of these have the developmental trajectories of these lateralized differences been mapped from childhood through early adulthood. In the present study, a cross-sectional design was used with healthy children (n=7), adolescents (n= 12), and adults (n= 10) who underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during a task that required perceiving fearful faces. Males and females differed in the asymmetry of activation of the amygdala and prefrontal cortex across the three age groups. For males, activation within the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex was bilateral in children, right lateralized in adolescents, and bilateral in adults, whereas females showed a monotonic relationship with age, with older females showing more bilateral activation than younger ones. In contrast, amygdala activation was similar for both sexes, with bilateral activation in children, right-lateralized activation in adolescents, and bilateral activation in adults. These results suggest that males and females show different patterns of lateralized cortical and subcortical brain activation across the period of development from childhood through early adulthood.

AN - 67205677; 15635936 AB - The light chain of botulinum neurotoxin serotype A undergoes autocatalytic fragmentation into two major peptides during purification and storage (Ahmed S. A. et al. 2001, J. Protein Chem. 20:221-231) by both intermolecular and intramolecular mechanisms (Ahmed S. A. et al. 2003, Biochemistry 42:12539 12549). In this study, we investigated the effects of buffers and salts on this autocatalytic reaction in the presence and absence of zinc chloride. In the presence of zinc chloride, the fragmentation reaction was enhanced in each of acetate, MES, HEPES and phosphate buffers with maximum occurring in acetate when compared to those in the absence of zinc chloride. Adding sodium chloride in phosphate buffer in the presence of zinc chloride increased the extent of proteolysis. Irrespective of the presence of zinc chloride, adding sodium chloride or potassium chloride in phosphate buffer elicited an additional proteolytic reaction. Higher concentrations of sodium phosphate buffer enhanced the autocatalytic reaction in the absence of zinc chloride. In contrast, in the presence of zinc chloride, higher concentrations of sodium phosphate decreased the autocatalytic reaction. Optimum pH of autocatalysis was not affected significantly by the absence or presence of zinc chloride. Like zinc chloride, other chlorides of divalent metals, such as magnesium, cobalt, iron and calcium also enhanced the autocatalytic reaction. Polyols such as ethylene glycol protected the light chain from fragmentation. Exposure of light chain to UV radiation led to enhanced fragmentation.

AN - 66910849; 15340172 AB - Ricin is a potent toxin presenting a threat as a biological weapon. The holotoxin consists of two disulfide-linked polypeptides: an enzymatically active A chain (RTA) and a galactose/N-acetylgalactosamine-binding B chain. Efforts to develop an inactivated version of the A chain as a vaccine have been hampered by limitations of stability and solubility. Previously, recombinant truncated versions of the 267-amino-acid A chain consisting of residues 1-33/44-198 or 1-198 were designed by protein engineering to overcome these limits and were shown to be effective and nontoxic as vaccines in mice. Herein we used CD, dynamic light scattering, fluorescence, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy to examine the biophysical properties of these proteins. Although others have found that recombinant RTA (rRTA) adopts a partially unfolded, molten globule-like state at 45 degrees C, rRTA 1-33/44-198 and 1-198 are significantly more thermostable, remaining completely folded at temperatures up to 53 degrees C and 51 degrees C, respectively. Deleting both an exposed loop region (amino acids 34-43) and the C-terminal domain (199-267) contributed to increased thermostability. We found that chemically induced denaturation of rRTA, but not the truncated variants, proceeds through at least a three-state mechanism. The intermediate state in rRTA unfolding has a hydrophobic core accessible to ANS and an unfolded C-terminal domain. Removing the C-terminal domain changed the mechanism of rRTA unfolding, eliminating a tendency to adopt a partially unfolded state. Our results support the conclusion that these derivatives are superior candidates for development as vaccines against ricin and suggest an approach of reduction to minimum essential domains for design of more thermostable recombinant antigens.

AN - 66815614; 15327881 AB - Increasing concern regarding the stewardship of US Army lands requires a proactive program to evaluate sites of potential risk. Small arms and upland skeet ranges are a potentially significant source of lead exposure for burrowing mammals. Woodchucks (Marmota monax) were evaluated for lead exposure in a previously used upland skeet range and a small arms range, respective to animals collected at two nearby reference locations. Soil lead concentrations collected at burrow entrances on the firing ranges were compared with blood, bone, kidney, liver, and fecal concentrations of woodchucks collected from the reference areas. No statistical differences were found in the lead concentrations in tissue between woodchucks in reference and firing ranges; concentrations of lead in liver and kidney were below detection limits. Levels in bone, blood, and feces suggest the bioavailability of lead at these various sites, although other factors (e.g., differences in foraging areas, age structure, habitat preferences, and environmental conditions) were also likely to influence exposure. Blood levels were below that which suggests toxicity. Further analysis of other ranges with higher lead concentrations and of small mammal species with smaller home ranges is recommended to further elucidate trends that could be extrapolated to other sites.

AN - 66702737; 15251176 AB - Sulfur mustard (2,2'-dichlorodiethyl sulfide, SM) is a potent alkylating agent that induces skin vessication after cutaneous exposure. Previous work has revealed that SM induces the production of inflammatory cytokines, including IL-8, IL-6, TNF-alpha, and IL-1beta, in keratinocytes. The p38 MAP kinase (MAPK14) signaling pathway is activated via phosphorylation in response to cellular stress and has been implicated in the upregulation of cytokines in response to stress. We investigated the role of p38 MAP kinase in inflammatory cytokine upregulation following SM exposure. A dose response study in cultured human epidermal keratinocytes (HEK) revealed increasing phosphorylation of p38 MAP kinase in response to increasing concentrations of SM. A time course at the 200 microM exposure revealed that p38 MAP kinase phosphorylation is induced by 15 min post-exposure, peaks at 30 min and is sustained at peak levels until 8 h post-exposure. Phosphorylation of the upstream kinase MKK3/6 was also detected. Assay of the SM-exposed HEK culture media for cytokines revealed that exposure to 200 microM SM increased IL-8, IL-6, TNF-alpha, and IL-1beta. When cells exposed to 200 microM SM were treated with the p38 MAP kinase inhibitor SB203580, the levels of IL-8, IL-6, and TNF-alpha and IL-1beta were significantly decreased when compared with cells that were untreated. These results show that p38 MAP kinase plays a role in SM-induced cytokine production in HEK and suggest that inhibiting this pathway may alleviate the profound inflammatory response elicited by cutaneous SM exposure.

Highlighting this ethnic warfare was the blood letting that occurred in the former Yugoslavia (FRY), that started shortly after the disintegration of Yugoslavia after the death of Marshal Tito in 1980. The violence that wracked the Balkans during the 1990s ushered in one of the worst conflicts Europe has witnessed since the end of WWII. Whereas historian Samuel P. Huntington has labeled this era a "clash of civilizations," it has been, in the opinion of this reviewer, more of a clash of competing nationalist ideologies that have used ethnicity & religion as a "cloak" to hide their respective "expansionist" agendas. These expansionist tendencies have led to some of the most horrendous crimes against humanity that up until now Europeans & Americans have associated with Equatorial Africa, the Infantada on the West Bank in Palestine, & "killing fields" of Cambodia. 1 Map.

Our approach is based on the wavelet multiresolution analysis combined with the scaling analysis of the entropy of a time series. The wavelet multiresolution analysis decomposes the signal in a scale-by-scalemanner. The scale-by-scale decomposition generates smooth & detail curves that are evaluated & studied. A wavelet-based smoothing filtering is used to estimate the daily birth rate & conception rate during the year. The scaling analysis is based on the Diffusion Entropy Analysis(DEA). The joint use of the DEA & the wavelet multiresolution analysis allows: (1) the separation of the deterministic &, therefore, nonscaling component from the scaling component of the signal; (2) the determination of the stochastic information characterizing the teen birth phenomenon at each time scale. The daily data cover the number of births phenomenon at each time scale. The daily data cover the number of births to teens in TX during the period 1964-1999. 1 Table, 14 Figures, 17 References.

The sedimentologic architecture of the shoreface was linked to time-series elevation change and profile shape to determine relationships between morphodynamics, facies development, erosional processes, profile closeout, and cross-shore transport.The modern shoreface mass, which erosionally overlies a tidal inlet-associated complex, attains a maximum thickness of 3-4 m below the beach to middle profile before pinching out seaward between 9 and 12 m depth. Concave erosional surfaces overlain by cross-stratified fine to medium sand and gravel make up most of the lower half of the shoreface prism below the beach through middle profile reflecting longshore trough incision and subsequent current-dominated aggradation. At the landward margin, gravel-rich laminae record episodic seaward progradation of beach surfaces over coarse inner-trough settings. Seaward, a parallel-laminated fine-sand facies dominates the upper part of the prism recording intermittent shoal zone buildup, including trough filling, under high-velocity plane-bed conditions. Similarly, a bioturbated parallel-laminated, fine- to very fine-sand facies makes up the entire prism below the outermost lower ramp sector, again indicating buildup under high-velocity conditions. However, accretion of the lower ramp results from major storms that cause trough scour along landward locations and simultaneous displacement of fine sand onto the lower ramp. Conversely, lower ramp erosion typically occurs during less energetic conditions as sediment is slowly returned shoreward causing inner-shoreface buildup. Close spacing of major storms during some years led to net progradation of the shoreface.The upper and lower limits of surveyed elevation change (ULe and LLe) repeatedly develop similar limit-profile shapes over shoreface accretion-erosion cycles. The ULe reflects accretion maxima resulting from beach, bar, and lower ramp buildup. The LLe and lower sedimentologic limit (LLs) along the inner 250 to 300 m of the active shoreface are a product of storm-trough scour down to a maximum depth of approximately 5.5 m. Below the lower ramp facies, the LLe and LLs are primarily products of less energetic wave erosion down to approximately 5 m (shoreward) and 9 m (offshore) depths. The LLe closely matches the LLs documenting that >90% of the shoreface prism was reworked during the 12.4-year period whereas actual ages for erosional events indicate a potential of 2 to 4 years for complete reworking of the shoreface mass. Textural distribution indicates net long-term transport direction and loci of deposition for different sized material. The coarsest material is concentrated at landwardmost locations and well-sorted fine to very fine sand at seaward locations. Medium sand to gravel tends to remain within the trough zone, even during extreme storm events. The ULe and LLe also represent the upper and lower limits for profile closure events. A location of about 4.5 m depth at 300 to 350 m from shoreline marks the boundary between inner profile- and lower ramp-associated closure events, the boundary between trough-associated and lower ramp facies, and the lower ramp morphologic break, all of which correspond to the juncture between longshore-current- and shoaling wave-dominated zones. The lower-ramp zone of closure is a zone of seaward decreasing storm transport in which fine to very fine sand is the typical bedload material.

Satellite-based soil moisture can be obtained from passive microwave, active microwave, and optical sensors, although the coarse spatial resolution of passive microwave and the inability to obtain vertically resolved information from optical sensors limit their usefulness for watershed-scale applications. Active microwave sensors such as synthetic aperture radar (SAR) currently represent the best approach for obtaining spatially distributed surface soil moisture at scales of 10-100 m for watersheds ranging from 1 000 to 25 000 km (super 2) . Although SAR provides surface soil moisture, the applications listed above require vertically resolved soil moisture profiles. To obtain distributed soil moisture profiles, a combined approach of calibration and data assimilation in soil vegetation atmosphere transfer (SVAT) models based on recent advances in soil physics is the most promising avenue of research. This review summarizes the state of the science using current satellite-based sensors to determine watershed-scale surface soil moisture distribution and the state of combining SVAT models with data assimilation and calibration approaches for the estimation of profile soil moisture. The basic conclusion of this review is that currently orbiting SAR sensors combined with available SVAT models could provide distributed profile soil moisture information with known accuracy at the watershed scale. The priority areas for future research should include image-based approaches for mapping surface roughness, determination of soil moisture in densely vegetated sites, active and passive microwave data fusion, and joint calibration and data assimilation approaches for a combined remote sensing-modeling system. For validation, a worldwide in situ soil moisture monitoring program should be implemented. Finally, to realize the full potential of satellite-based soil moisture estimation for watershed applications, it will be necessary to continue sensor development, improve image availability and timely delivery, and reduce image cost.

For vertical wells, there are well-established methods for estimating these parameters, typically based on either the recovery from induced head changes in a well or from the head response in observation wells to pumping in a test well. Comparable aquifer parameter estimation methods for horizontal wells have not been presented in the ground water literature. Formation parameter estimation methods based on measurements of pressure in horizontal wells have been presented in the petroleum industry literature, but these methods have limited applicability for ground water evaluation and are based on pressure measurements in only the horizontal well borehole, rather than in observation wells. This paper presents a simple and versatile method by which pumping test procedures developed for vertical wells can be applied to horizontal well pumping tests. The method presented here uses the principle of superposition to represent the horizontal well as a series of partially penetrating vertical wells. This concept is used to estimate a distance from an observation well at which a vertical well that has the same total pumping rate as the horizontal well will produce the same drawdown as the horizontal well. This equivalent distance may then be associated with an observation well for use in pumping test algorithms and type curves developed for vertical wells. The method is shown to produce good results for confined aquifers and unconfined aquifers in the absence of delayed yield response. For unconfined aquifers, the presence of delayed yield response increases the method error.

Baseline data collected prior to exposure allows each fish to serve as its own control. When at least 70% of exposed fish exhibit ventilatory or movement parameters significantly different from baseline observations, a group alarm is declared. In the laboratory studies, the aquatic biomonitor responded to the majority of chemicals at the 96-h lc sub(50) within an hour or less, although substantially higher response times were found for malathion and pentachlorophenol. Workshop tests of single chemical concentrations presented as blind samples were consistent with the laboratory test results. There were no alarms under control conditions in any test. Although data are limited, the aquatic biomonitor appears to respond more rapidly to chemicals causing membrane irritation, narcosis or polar narcosis than to acetylcholinesterase inhibitors or oxidative phosphorylation uncouplers. All four monitored parameters (ventilatory rate, cough rate, ventilatory depth and movement) contributed to identification of first alarms at acutely toxic levels. Understanding these response patterns can be useful in data interpretation for biomonitor applications such as surface water monitoring for watershed protection, wastewater treatment plant effluent monitoring or source water monitoring for drinking water protection.

Specifically, lead concentrations were examined in sediment, soil, water, plants, fish and invertebrates. There is an elevated concentration of lead in the soil and sediment up to 11,000 mu g/g and 340 mu g/g and also evidence of bioconcentration of the lead by the surrounding biota. Earthworms had up to 90% higher concentrations of lead while tadpoles showed 20% higher concentrations compared with their controls. Lead uptake by indigenous plants gave varying results. Two species bioconcentrated lead 20 and 55 times greater than the control plants. These differences were significant (P <0.05 level) when tested by the student's t test. Further studies show that the total leachable lead was highest in the invertebrates and vertebrates but not in the plants.

Data from 65 men were examined retrospectively. BM fluctuations were monitored over 4 to 15 consecutive days. Group daily variation in BM was 0.51 plus or minus 0.20 kg. Group coefficient of variation was 0.66 plus or minus 0.24%, normally distributed, and not related to either absolute BM (r = 0.04) or number of measurements (r = 0.34). Three days resulted in a similar variability estimate compared to 6 or 9 d, although precision was improved with 9 d. In conclusion, 3 consecutive BM measurements provide an accurate assessment of daily BM variability, which is less than 1% for active men when replacing 100% of sweat losses during exercise. The data also suggest that daily BM is a sufficiently stable physiological parameter for potential daily fluid balance monitoring.

It has been shown that B. anthracis spores germinate in macrophages and perhaps require this intracellular niche to germinate in vivo before outgrowth of the vegetative organism. However, it has also been reported that macrophages are sporocidal in vitro. In our in vivo model, macrophages were depleted from mice by either silica treatment or treatment with liposome-encapsulated dichloromethylene disphosphonate (Cl sub(2)MDP), and the animals were infected parenterally with virulent ungerminated B. anthracis (Ames strain) spores. The mice in which macrophages had been depleted were killed more rapidly than untreated mice. In addition, augmenting peritoneal populations of macrophages with cultured RAW264.7 cells partially protected mice from disease, increasing the survival rate in a dose dependent relationship. Alveolar macrophages were depleted by intranasal instillation of liposome-encapsulated Cl sub(2)MDP. The animals with normal alveolar macrophage numbers had significantly greater survival rates after inhaling B. anthracis spores than the macrophage-depleted mice. These findings do not preclude the observations that macrophages provide a site permissive for spore germination, however, these data suggest that macrophages do play an important role in limiting and/or clearing a B. anthracis infection.

Several investigations have characterized numerous AHL- degrading enzymes (AiiA lactonases) encoded by environmental isolates of Bacillus spp. The Burkholderia thailandensis quorum system is comprised of at least three AHL synthases (AHSs) and five transcriptional regulators belonging to the LuxIR class of proteins. Expression of the Bacillus anthracis (Ames strain) AiiA lactonase in B. thailandensis completely abolished the accumulation of N-decanoylhomoserine lactone (C sub(10)-HSL) and N-octanoylhomoserine lactone (C sub(8)-HSL), reduced N-hexanoylhomoserine lactone (C sub(6)-HSL) levels, altered both swarming and twitching motility, caused a significant increase in generation time, and affected carbon metabolism. In contrast, heterologous expression of the Bacillus cereus strain A24 AiiA lactonase in B. thailandensis reduced the concentrations of C sub(6)-HSL, C sub(8)-HSL, and C sub(10)-HSL to nondetectable levels; altered both swarming and twitching motility; and caused fluctuations in carbon utilization. Individual disruption of the B. thailandensis AHSs, specifically disruption of the btaI1 and btaI3 genes, which encode the proteins that direct the synthesis of C sub(8)-HSL and C sub(6)-HSL, respectively, caused the hyper-beta-hemolysis of sheep erythrocytes on blood agar plates. In contrast, AHL cleavage in B. thailandensis by the Bacillus AiiA lactonases failed to enhance beta-hemolytic activity. The results of this study demonstrate that heterologous expression of Bacillus sp. AiiA lactonases in B. thailandensis reduced AHL accumulation, affected both swarming and twitching motility, increased generation time, altered substrate utilization, and prevented the beta-hemolysis of sheep erythrocytes.

This study evaluated the Qiagen QIAamp DNA Mini Kit and the Schleicher and Schuell IsoCode Stix DNA isolation device for isolating nucleic acid. Buffer, serum, and whole-blood samples were spiked with Bacillus anthracis Sterne vegetative cells and Yersinia pestis, while water was spiked with B. anthracis Sterne spores. Although minimal variations in limit of detection occurred among matrices, both the IsoCode Stix extraction method and the Qiagen procedure have comparable detection limits.

AN - 66846842; 15350146 AB - The eukaryotic 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1) provides the major activity for repairing mutagenic 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) induced in the genome due to oxidative stress. Earlier in vitro studies showed that, after excising the base lesion, the human OGG1 remains bound to the resulting abasic (AP) site in DNA and does not turn over efficiently. The human AP-endonuclease (APE1), which cleaves the phosphodiester bond 5' to the AP site, in the next step of repair, displaces the bound OGG1 and thus increases its turnover. Here we show that NEIL1, a DNA glycosylase/AP lyase specific for many oxidized bases but with weak 8-oxoG excision activity, stimulates turnover of OGG1 in a fashion similar to that of APE1 and carries out betadelta-elimination at the AP site. This novel collaboration of two DNA glycosylases, which do not stably interact with each other, in stimulating 8-oxoguanine repair is possible because of higher AP site affinity and stronger AP lyase activity of NEIL1 relative to OGG1. Comparable levels of NEIL1 and OGG1 in some human cells raise the possibility that NEIL1 serves as a backup enzyme to APE1 in stimulating 8-oxoG repair in vivo.

Pairwise interactions between 15 recombinant Yersinia outer proteins (Yops), regulators, and chaperones were first identified by SPR. Mass spectrometry confirmed over 80% of the protein-protein interactions suggested by SPR, and new binding partners were further characterized. The Yop secretion protein (Ysc) M2 of Yersinia enterocolitica and LcrQ of Y. pestis, formerly described as ligands only for the specific Yop chaperone (Syc) H, formed stable complexes with SycE. Additional previously unreported complexes of YscE with the translocation regulator protein TyeA and the thermal regulator protein YmoA and multiple potential protein contacts by YscE, YopK, YopH, and LcrH were also identified. Because only stably folded proteins were examined, the interactions we identified are likely to occur either before or after transfer through the injectosome to mammalian host cells and may have relevance to understanding disease processes initiated by the plague bacterium.

AN - 67063547; 15540521 AB - Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is caused by the Hantaviruses, a group enveloped RNA viruses transmitted through contact with infected rodent urine or feces. Although distributed widely through Europe, Asia, and the New World, infections acquired in Korea, China, and Russia tend to be among the most severe. The initial presentation of HFRS is extremely variable, but generally includes fever, malaise, headache and abdominal pain. Laboratory findings that may lead to the diagnosis include thrombocytopenia, azotemia, elevated serum creatinine, or proteinuria. We present the case of a patient that acquired hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome in South Korea.

AN - 66995532; 15498154 AB - Staphylococcal enterotoxins are 23- to 29-kDa polypeptides in the bacterial superantigen protein family. Clinical symptoms from intoxication with staphylococcal enterotoxins vary by exposure route. Ingestion results in gastrointestinal symptoms, and inhalation results in fever as well as pulmonary and gastrointestinal symptoms. Review of occupational exposures at the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases from 1989 to 2002 showed that three laboratory workers had symptoms after ocular exposure to staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB). Conjunctivitis with localized cutaneous swelling occurred in three persons within 1 to 6 hours after exposure to SEB; two of these persons also had gastrointestinal symptoms, which suggests that such symptoms occurred as a result of exposure by an indirect cutaneous or ocular route. Ocular exposures from SEB resulting in conjunctivitis and localized swelling have not previously been reported. Symptoms from these patients and review of clinical symptoms of 16 laboratory-acquired inhalational SEB intoxications may help healthcare workers evaluate and identify SEB exposures in laboratory personnel at risk.

AN - 66933322; 15461172 AB - This paper describes a modeling approach that simulates changes in particle size distribution and density due to aggregation by extending the Smoluchowski aggregation kinetic model to particles of different density. Batch flocculation studies were conducted for clay, colloidal silica, crude oil, clay-crude oil, and silica-crude oil systems. A parameter estimation algorithm was used to estimate homogeneous collision efficiencies (alphaHOMO) for single-particle-type systems and heterogeneous collision efficiencies (alphaHET) for two-particle-type systems. Homogeneous collision efficiency values (alphaHOMO) were greater for clay (0.7) and for crude oil (0.3) than for silica (0.01). Thus, clay and crude oil were classified as cohesive particles while silica was classified as noncohesive. Heterogeneous collision efficiencies were similar for oil-clay (0.4) and oil-silica (0.3) systems. Thus, crude oil increases the aggregation of noncohesive particles. Data from the calibrated aggregation model were used to estimate apparent first-order flocculation rates (K') for oil, clay, and silica and apparent second-order flocculation rates (K'') for oil and clay in oil-clay systems and for oil and silica in oil-silica systems. For oil or clay systems, aggregation Damköhler numbers ranged from 0.1 to 1.0, suggesting that droplet coalescence and clay aggregation can occur on the same time scales as oil resurfacing and clay settling, respectively. For mixed oil-clay systems, the relative time scales of clay settling and clay-oil aggregation were also within an order of magnitude.

AN - 66795210; 15318343 AB - Nerve-evoked contractions were studied in vitro in phrenic nerve-hemidiaphragm preparations from strain 129X1 acetylcholinesterase knockout (AChE-/-) mice and their wild-type littermates (AChE+/+). The AChE-/- mice fail to express AChE but have normal levels of butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and can survive into adulthood. Twitch tensions elicited in diaphragms of AChE-/- mice by single supramaximal stimuli had larger amplitudes and slower rise and decay times than did those in wild-type animals. In AChE-/- preparations, repetitive stimulation at frequencies of 20 and 50 Hz and at 200 and 400 Hz produced decremental muscle tensions; however, stimulation at 70 and 100 Hz resulted in little or no loss of tension during trains. Muscles from AChE+/+ mice maintained tension at all frequencies examined but exhibited tetanic fade after exposure to the selective AChE inhibitor 1,5-bis(4-allyldimethyl-ammoniumphenyl)pentane-3-one (BW 284C51). The ability of diaphragm muscles from AChE-/- mice to maintain tension at 70 and 100 Hz suggests a partial compensation for impairment of acetylcholine (ACh) hydrolysis. Three mechanisms--including a reliance on BChE activity for termination of ACh action, downregulation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), and morphological remodeling of the endplate region--were identified. Studies of neuromuscular transmission in this model system provide an excellent opportunity to evaluate the role of AChE without complications arising from use of inhibitors.

As part of the Army's Battlespace Terrain Reasoning and Awareness research program, the 1-D dynamic state of the ground model FASST (Fast All-season Soil STrength) was developed. It calculates the ground's moisture content, ice content, temperature, and freeze/thaw profiles, as well as soil strength and surface ice and snow accumulation/depletion. The fundamental operations of FASST are the calculation of an energy and water budget that quantifies both the flow of heat and moisture within the soil and also the exchange of heat and moisture at all interfaces (ground/air or ground/snow; snow/air) using both meteorological and terrain data. FASST is designed to accommodate a range of users, from those who have intricate knowledge of their site to those who know only the site location. It allows for 22 different terrain materials, including asphalt, concrete, bedrock, permanent snow, and the USCS soil types. At a minimum, the only weather information required is air temperature.

Current analytical methods are limited and do not assess exposure or bioavailability. Restriction fragment differential display-polymerase chain reaction is a gene expression profiling technique that allows comparison of the effects of different chemicals on an organism. We used the restriction reaction to assess the potential of using stress responses of invertebrates to discriminate between different contaminants. Larvae of an infaunal invertebrate, Chironomus tentans, were exposed to polyaromatics (fluoranthrene, phenanthrene, and DDT), and metals (copper, zinc and lead) in 16 hr aqueous exposures. Distinctly different restriction reaction gene expression patterns were observed in response to these exposures. These results suggest that gene expression fingerprinting could complement current procedures for detecting contaminants or classes of contaminants. Application of this approach could result in significant cost savings to sediment dredging and remediation operations.

For example, many accepted assays rely on the arylhydrocarbon receptor interaction to screen for dioxins and related compounds in environmental samples. However, these systems are poorly developed or absent in lower organisms, and since arylhydrocarbon receptor interaction is a necessary early step in the development of dioxin toxicity, dioxins are relatively non-toxic to invertebrates. As a result, assays based on this interaction have no relevance for assessing the risk of environmental contamination to these organisms at the base of all food chains. Alternatively, arthropods possess highly developed ecdysone receptor systems that can be used similarly to the arylhydrocarbon receptor system as the basis of an assay with high relevance for these important classes of invertebrates. A new transgenic cell line was developed in order to create a rapid assay for ecdysone interactions to detect and measure the activity of environmental contaminants that are chronically toxic to lower organisms, specifically the invertebrate phylum Arthropoda. The cell line is based on Invitrogen's registered Ecdysone-Inducible Mammalian Expression System, which consists of two plasmids, one of which expresses the heterodimeric ecdysteroid receptor while the other contains the receptor-ligand response element E/GRE. When ecdysone or another ligand having ecdysteroid activity is present, the binding of the receptor-ligand complex to the response element results in transcription of the reporter gene ( beta -galactosidase), the activity of which can be monitored colorimetrically. The plasmids were stably transfected into HepG2 human liver cells. Preliminary results show that Aroclor 1242, which is known to inhibit molting in invertebrates, also inhibited molting in juvenile crawfish (Procambarus clarkii) at 100 mu g l super(-1) and normal ecdysteroid response in this new transgenic cell line, HepG2-EcR, at similar concentrations indicating that this new assay shows promise for future use as a screening tool.

Current accepted bacterial indicator methods do not provide defensible data with respect to the occurrence and types of pathogens in sediments. In an effort to adapt new defensible methods for assessing the risk posed by pathogens in sediments, we evaluated the sensitivity of a commercially available real-time polymerase chain reaction TaqMan registered Escherichia coli 0157:H7 detection kit. The lower limit of linear quantitation of this assay was experimentally determined in sediment and sediment extract samples spiked with known amounts of E. coli 0157:H7 DNA. Parallel control experiments were conducted in pure water samples spiked with known amounts of Escherichia coli 0157:H7 DNA. The lower limit of quantification of the TaqMan registered assay was 1000 colony forming units when interrogating 100 mg sediment samples. In contrast, the assay was 20-fold more sensitive with a lower limit of quantification of 50 colony forming units in pure water and sediment extract samples. These results suggest that the sensitivity of the TaqMan registered Escherichia coli 0157:H7 detection kit is more dependent on recovery of the desired target from the sediment matrix than efficiency of polymerase chain reaction amplification. The potential human health risk associated with the lower limit of quantification of the Taqman registered assay in the spiked sediment samples was estimated using a Beta-Poisson dose-response model. Using this approach, lower limit values corresponded to exposure levels of Escherichia coli 0157:H7 that meet United States Environmental Protection Agency accepted illness rates for recreational swimming.

Field data on offshore and nearshore directional waves, high-resolution bathymetry, tide, and wind were collected starting in the fall of 2000. The applicability of using offshore gauge data as input along the model boundary was evaluated by additional modeling on a coarse grid extending seaward beyond the influence of irregular shelf bathymetry. Model evaluation is presented based on three storm events. For nearshore model and gauge results paired in time, the root-mean-square error in wave height is 0.2-0.5 m and in wave direction is 14-24 deg. The relative importance of accurate bathymetry, tide, wind, nonlinear wave-wave interactions, and spectral shape (measured versus parameterized) are examined with model sensitivity studies. Impacts on potential longshore transport computations are also considered. High-resolution bathymetry is found to be most significant in reducing model versus gauge differences. Use of parametric input spectra gave comparable results to input of measured two-dimensional spectra for the selected storms.

Efforts to control future SARS outbreaks depend on the accurate and early identification of SARS-CoV infected patients. A real-time fluorogenic RT-PCR assay based on the 3-noncoding region (3-NCR) of SARS-CoV genome was developed as a quantitative SARS diagnostic tool. The ideal amplification efficiency of a sensitive SARS-CoV RT-PCR assay should yield an E value (PCR product concentration increase per amplification cycle) equal to 2.0. It was demonstrated that the 3-NCR SARS-CoV based RT-PCR reactions could be formulated to reach excellent E values of 1.81, or 91% amplification efficacy. The SARS-CoV cDNA preparations derived from viral RNA extract and the cloned recombinant plasmid both exhibit the identical amplification characteristics, i.e. amplification efficacy using the same PCR formulation developed in this study. The viral genomic copy (or genomic equivalences, GE) per infectious unit (GE/pfu) of SARS-CoV used in this study was also established to be approximate 1200-1600:1. The assay's detection sensitivity could reach 0.005pfu or 6-8GE per assay. It was preliminarily demonstrated that the assay could efficiently detect SARS-CoV from clinical specimens of SARS probable and suspected patients identified in Taiwan. The 3-NCR based SARS-CoV assay demonstrated 100% diagnostic specificity testing samples of patients with acute respiratory disease from a non-SARS epidemic region.

We identified genes in Bacillus anthracis homologous to the B. cereus nheAB genes encoding proteins of the NHE complex. The NheA component was detected immunologically in culture supernatants from B. anthracis but not from a NheA super(-) mutant, suggesting that B. anthracis produces and secretes the NheA subunit of NHE. A NheA deletion mutant was not attenuated in the guinea pig suggesting that NheA is not absolutely required for virulence.

Cyclic voltammetric results clearly show that carbon nanotubes, especially those pretreated with nitric acid, possess an excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of HcySH at a low potential (0.0 V versus Ag/AgCl). The remarkable catalytic property of the acid-pretreated CNTs, which is essentially associated with oxygen-containing moieties introduced on the tube surface, has been further exploited as a sensitive determination scheme for HcySH. Continuous-flow amperometric results suggest that the CNT- based electrodes (p-CNT/Nafion/GC), which were prepared by using Nafion to solubilize and further immobilize CNTs on GC electrodes, show striking analytical properties of good stability and reproducibility and strong ability against electrode fouling. Such analytical properties, along with the low operation potential, substantially enable a reliable and sensitive determination of HcySH with a good dynamic linearity up to 60 mu M and a detection limit of 0.06 mu M (S/N=3). The catalytic mechanism and the possible application of the as-prepared p-CNT/Nafion/GC electrodes for the study of the auto-oxidation of HcySH are also demonstrated and discussed.

Three recombinant silk proteins, (SpI) sub(7), NcDS, and [(SpI) sub(4)/(SpII) sub(1)] sub(4), were purified by extraction with organic acids followed by affinity or ion exchange chromatography resulting in 90-95% pure silk solutions. The protein yield of NcDS (15 mg/L culture) and (SpI) sub(7) (35 mg/L) increased 4- and 5-fold, respectively, from previously reported values presumably due to a more complete solubilization of the expressed recombinant protein. [(SpI) sub(4)/(SpII) sub(1)] sub(4), a hybrid protein based on the repeat sequences of spidroin I and spidroin II, had a yield of 12.4 mg/L. This method is an effective, reproducible technique that has broad applicability for a variety of silk proteins as well as other acid stable biopolymers.

In this study cultured normal and SV40 immortalized human epidermal keratinocyte (NHEK/IHEK) cells were compared as potential model systems to measure the efficacy of therapeutic drugs against HD. Immortalized human epidermal keratinocytes resemble their primary cell counterparts but have the advantage of being carried through long-term culture. Immortalized cells also provide consistency and durability and are less costly than primary keratinocytes. Immunoassay studies were performed to examine the response of these two cell lines to HD. We found that both normal and immortalized NHEKs secreted the pro-inflammatory mediator interleukin-8 (IL-8) when exposed to HD. However, a major difference was observed between the NHEK cell line 6207 and IHEK cell line 425. IHEK cell line 425 produced higher levels of Interleuken-8 then those of its normal counterpart cell line 6207. This observation is significant since therapeutic drugs such as ibuprofen, which depress cytokine production, may not allow these biomarkers to be detected efficiently in experimental analysis of certain NHEK cell lines. The fact that Il-8 production higher in cell line 425 cell makes this in vitro model a potential screening tool to study the efficacy of drugs that suppress production of cytokine markers.

AN - 66893124; 15376433 AB - We conducted a series of spectral extinction measurements on a variety of aerosolized chemical and biological simulants over the spectral range 3-13 microm using conventional Fourier-transform IR (FTIR) aerosol spectroscopy. Samples consist of both aerosolized particulates and atomized liquids. Materials considered include Bacillus subtilis endospores, lyophilized ovalbumin, polyethylene glycol, dimethicone (SF-96), and three common background materials: kaolin clay (hydrated aluminum silicate), Arizona road dust (primarily SiO2), and diesel soot. Aerosol size distributions and mass density were measured simultaneously with the FTIR spectra. As a result, all optical parameters presented here are mass normalized, i.e., in square meters per gram. In an effort to establish the utility of using Mie theory to predict such parameters, we conducted a series of calculations. For materials in which the complex indices of refraction are known, e.g., silicone oil (SF-96) and kaolin, measured size distributions were convolved with Mie theory and the resultant spectral extinction calculated. Where there was good agreement between measured and calculated extinction spectra, absorption, total scattering, and backscatter were also calculated.

AN - 66696163; 15246849 AB - Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is often complicated by the occurrence of seizures, which adversely affect clinical outcome. The risk of seizures increases to the extent that the injury is associated with sub-arachnoid hemorrhage and hematoma. A likely mechanism of seizure development post-TBI is decompartmentalization of iron from extravasated hemoglobin (Hb). It is well known that iron can catalyze formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Based on this proposed mechanism, a descriptive model of TBI-induced seizures, using intracortical injection of iron salts, was developed by Willmore. We have added modifications to enhance the quantifiability of seizure activity and have used the model to examine the therapeutic efficacy of lipoic acids (ROS-scavenging antioxidants). Male SD rats were pretreated with alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) and dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) or appropriate vehicles. Under anesthesia, unilateral intracortical infusions of ferric chloride were performed stereotaxically. EEG was recorded via extradural electrodes. EEG was sampled for 10 s of every 60-s interval over a 24-h period following injection of ferric chloride. We measured the number of seconds of epileptiform discharges or seizure activity in every 10-s EEG sample during the 24 h. The EEGs of rats pretreated with ALA and DHLA exhibited 55% less seizure activity than vehicle-treated ferric chloride-injected animals, suggesting that lipoic acids may be of use in preventing or attenuating TBI-induced seizures.

Simple fugacity models, e.g. organic contaminant aqueous partition coefficient (K sub(oc))-derived theoretical bioaccumulation potential, are commonly used to estimate the partitioning of hydrophobic organic contaminants between sediment organic matter and organism lipid. K sub(oc)-derived models, with or without the addition of a soot carbon term, did not accurately or consistently predict total polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorobiphenyls partitioning of eight sediments from ongoing dredging operations onto C sub(18)-coated filter paper. These models also failed to predict the partitioning of individual PAHs from these eight sediments. These data underscore the trade-offs between the ease of using simple models and the uncertainty of predicted partitioning values.

The United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases reviewed laboratory exposures involving these agents (1989 to 2002) to assess the effectiveness of medical management. The evaluation of 234 persons (78% vaccinated) for exposure to 289 infectious agents revealed 5 confirmed infections (glanders, Q fever, vaccinia, chikungunya, and Venezuelan equine encephalitis). Postexposure antibiotic prophylaxis was given for most moderate- or high-risk bacterial exposures (41/46; 89%); most unvaccinated minimal-risk (7/10; 70%), and subsets of vaccinated minimal-risk exposures (18/53; 34%) but generally not negligible-risk exposures (6/38; 16%). Vaccine "breakthroughs" were not unexpected (enzootic Venezuelan equine encephalitis, localized vaccinia) or presented with mild symptoms (Q fever). A multifaceted policy of personal protective measures, vaccination, early assessment, and postexposure antibiotic prophylaxis was effective in minimizing morbidity and mortality in at-risk laboratory workers.

AN - 66680504; 15234755 AB - Aqueous extracts of Celastrus paniculatus (CP) seed have been reported to improve learning and memory in rats. In addition, these extracts were shown to have antioxidant properties, augmented endogenous antioxidant enzymes, and decreased lipid peroxidation in rat brain. However, water soluble extracts of CP seed (CP-WSE) have not been evaluated for their neuroprotective effects. In the study reported here, we used enriched forebrain primary neuronal cell (FBNC) cultures to study the neuroprotective effects of three CP-WSE extracts (a room temperature, WF; a hot water, HF; and an acid, AF) on glutamate-induced toxicity. FBNC were pre-treated with the CP-WSE and then with glutamate to evaluate the protection afforded against excitatory amino acid-induced toxicity. The criteria for neuroprotection were based on the effects of CP-WSE on a mitochondrial function test following glutamate-induced neurotoxicity. Pre-treatment of neuronal cells with CP-WSE significantly attenuated glutamate-induced neuronal death. To understand the molecular mechanism of action of CP-WSE, we conducted electrophysiological studies using patch-clamp techniques on N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-activated whole-cell currents in FBNC. WSE significantly and reversibly inhibited whole-cell currents activated by NMDA. The results suggest that CP-WSE protected neuronal cells against glutamate-induced toxicity by modulating glutamate receptor function.

We find that superior human capital, harmonious civil-military relations, & Western cultural background are largely responsible. These traits correlate positively with democracy, & account for democracy's apparent effectiveness bonus. This is either good news or bad news for democratic effectiveness theorists. Many believe that democracy causes these traits. If so, our findings strengthen democratic effectiveness theory by explicating its causal mechanism. But others see democracy as a consequence rather than a cause of such traits. If so, our findings challenge the thesis by identifying alternative causes of the effectiveness bonus previously attributed to democracy. Either way, the results show a powerful effect for unit level variables in military performance. In the process, these same results sharpen our understanding of military effectiveness in general, & the relationship between military performance & regime type in particular. 1 Table, 100 References.

The nature of the constitutive response offers two key advantages over other existing models. Firstly, its non-local character obviates the mathematical difficulties of traditional analyses, and facilitates an investigation of the shear band evolution (i.e. the regime beyond the onset of localization). Secondly, the constitutive model parameters are physical properties of particles and their interactions (e.g. particle stiffness coefficients, coefficients of inter-particle rolling friction and sliding friction), as opposed to poorly understood fitting parameters. In this regard, the model is based on the same material properties used as model inputs to a discrete element (DEM) analysis, therefore, the micromechanics approach provides the vehicle for incorporating results not only from physical experiments but also from DEM simulations. Although the capabilities of such constitutive models are still limited, much can be discerned from their general rate form. In this paper, an attempt is made to distinguish between those aspects of the continuum theory of localization that are independent of the constitutive model, and those that require significant advances in the understanding of micromechanics.

These sediments behave in a noncohesive manner for coarse-grained particles but show cohesive behavior for fine-grained particles, i.e., as the particle size decreases, the critical shear stress increases and also becomes strongly dependent on the bulk density. The analysis includes gravitational, lift, drag, and cohesive forces as well as changes in bulk density and is uniformly valid for the range of particle sizes investigated, from fine-grained, cohesive particles to coarse-grained, noncohesive particles. Excellent agreement between theory and experiments is obtained. The analysis is also extended to quartz particles with small amounts of an added clay, bentonite, which makes the mixture more cohesive. This increase in cohesivity is greatest for intermediate size particles. An additional binding force due to the bentonite must then be included in the analysis.

Transport processes were obtained from the Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code. Model application period was December 1996 through November 1998. The model activated 28 state variables in the water column including physical variables, three algal groups, multiple forms of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and silica, and dissolved oxygen. Several features were added to the model for this application. These included representation of the internal algal phosphorus pool, distinction of labile and refractory organic matter, and representation of nitrogen fixation. The water column was coupled to a predictive sediment diagenesis model that computed sediment-water fluxes of dissolved oxygen, chemical oxygen demand, ammonium, nitrate, phosphate, and silica, based on computed inputs of particulate organic matter. Model results were compared to an extensive suite of observations in the water column and benthic sediments. JF - Technical Reports.

This paper reports simulations, based on these data, of processes in the air, snow, and sea ice at ISW using SNTHERM, a one-dimensional mass and energy balance model. An earlier version of SNTHERM had to be adapted, however, to treat the flooding that often occurs on sea ice in the western Weddell Sea. To treat this layer of slush and brine, SNTHERM holds the brine salinity constant at its initial value of 31.5 psu until 80% of this slush layer freezes. The current version of SNTHERM also incorporates a new parameterization for the roughness length for wind speed, z 0, derived from analyses of ISW eddy-covariance data. SNTHERM's simulations are validated with temperature measurements within the ice and snow and with eddy-covariance measurements of the surface momentum and sensible and latent heat fluxes. The simulated turbulent fluxes agree fairly well with the measured fluxes, except the simulated sensible heat flux is biased low by 4-5 W m-2 for both stable and unstable stratification. The simulated temperature profiles in the snow and ice also agree well with the measured temperatures. In particular, allowing seawater to flush the slush layer until it is 80% frozen delays the freezing of this layer such that its behavior mirrors the data.

This method was applied to red blood cell (RBC) and plasma ethyl acetate extracts from spiked human and animal whole blood samples and from whole blood of minipigs, guinea pigs, and rats exposed by whole-body sarin inhalation. Evidence of nerve agent exposure was detected in plasma and red blood cells at low levels of exposure. The linear method range of quantitation was 10-1000 pg on-column with a detection limit of approximately 2-pg on-column. In the course of method development, several conditions were optimized for the LVI, including type of injector insert, injection volume, initial temperature, pressure, and flow rate. RBC fractions had advantages over the plasma with respect to assessing nerve agent exposure using the fluoride ion method especially in samples with low serum butyrylcholinesterase activity.

The technique is based upon quantitating thiodiglycol (TDG) released from blood protein adducts that are formed upon exposure to HD. Protein was precipitated from plasma, whole blood, or packed red blood cells (RBCs) and then treated with sodium hydroxide to liberate protein-bound TDG. The TDG was derivatized with pentafluorobenzoyl chloride that enabled sensitive detection by negative-ion chemical ionization. Octadeuterothiodiglycol was used as an internal standard. Exposure of human plasma to HD (25nM to 400nM) resulted in a linear relationship (r2 = 0.9995) between HD concentration and released TDG levels with means ranging from 2.0 to 38 pg/mg protein. The coefficients of variation expressed as a percentage for the data points ranged from 2 to 11.5%. The application of this procedure was demonstrated in two HD animal exposure models. African green monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops) were exposed intravenously to 1 mg/kg HD, and TDG levels in blood samples were analyzed out to 45 days post-exposure. Mean TDG levels were determined to be 220 pg/mg protein on day 1 and declined to 10 pg/mg protein on day 45. Yorkshire cross pigs (Sus scrofa) were cutaneously exposed to neat liquid HD, and TDG levels in plasma were determined out to 21 days following exposure. Mean TDG levels were found to be 60 pg/mg protein on day one and decreased to an average of 4 pg/mg protein on day 21. The data from this study indicate that the assay is sensitive and provide a relatively simple approach to assay TDG cleaved from blood proteins at relatively long time frames (21-45 days) after HD exposure. The utility of the method has been demonstrated in vivo in a non-human primate and pig HD exposure model.

BAL and the internal standard (IS) ethane dithiol were isolated from plasma samples through solid-phase extraction and then reacted with 1-pentafluoropropionylimidazole, forming stable pentafluoropropionyl derivates that are sensitive to gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric analysis. Examination of concentration versus peak-area ratios of the BAL and IS derivatives demonstrated the method to be linear over a concentration range of 0.48 to 124 ng/mL in plasma when fit to a weighted (1/y2) least-squares regression. Correlation coefficients were 0.9943 to 0.9995 for six runs, and coefficients of variation (CV) were 2.5 to 8.7% over the eight concentrations tested. The intra- and interday accuracy and precision of this method was measured by examining six groups of eight unknown test samples (n = 6). Intraday accuracy, as expressed by percent error, was found to range from -15.4 to 0.21%, whereas the precision, expressed as %CV, was less than 9.8% over all sample concentrations. Interday test unknown sample results were similar in that the accuracy was shown to be -7.1 to 0.4%, and precision was 4.7 to 9.5%. BAL levels in frozen plasma (-70 degree C) remained constant for more than 14 days with a CV of less than 10% for the eight concentrations tested. The data indicate that the method will provide accurate and precise determination of BAL at concentrations down to approximately 1 ng/mL in plasma. This procedure has been applied to determine preliminary time-concentration profile studies of BAL in the hairless guinea pig.

It may be that inactivation of infectious virus is incomplete during viral nucleic acid extraction methods. Accordingly, two common viral nucleic acid extraction techniques were evaluated for the ability to inactivate high viral titer specimens. In particular, the potential for TRIzol super() LS Reagent (Invitrogen Corp., Carlsbad, CA) and AVL Buffer (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) were examined to render suspensions of alphaviruses, flaviviruses, filoviruses and a bunyavirus non-infectious to tissue culture assay. The dilution series for both extraction reagents consistently caused cell death through a 100-fold dilution. Except for the DEN subtype 4 positive control, all viruses had titers of at least 10 super(6)pfu/ml. No plaques were detected in any extraction reagent plus virus combination in this study, therefore, the extraction reagents appeared to inactivate completely each of the high-titer viruses used in this study. These results support the reliance upon either TRIzol super() LS Reagent or AVL Buffer to render clinical or environmental samples non-infectious, which has implications for the handling and processing of samples under austere field conditions and low level containment.

The Special Immunizations Program at United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases reviewed its policy and management of potential occupational exposures (1989-2002) to assess guidelines for determining the risk of exposure and disease and to determine criteria for initiating postexposure prophylaxis (PEP). Initiating antibiotic PEP was based primarily on exposure risk but was also influenced by vaccination status and agent virulence. PEP was given to nearly all moderate- and high-risk bacterial exposures, regardless of vaccination status, to most unvaccinated and subsets of vaccinated minimal-risk exposures, but generally not to negligible-risk exposures. Algorithms for evaluating and managing potential exposures are presented to provide guidance to other agencies as they begin to work with these agents.

Significant differences exist in the reported toxicity and acetylcholinesterase inhibition rates of the two enantiomers. This makes the ability to distinguish between them desirable for either toxicological studies or the development of antidotal therapies. Using a Chiralcel OD-H column with normal-phase liquid chromatography, the enantiomers were baseline resolved in less than 7 min. Atmospheric pressure chemical ionization was utilized as the interface between a liquid chromatograph and mass spectrometer. The mass spectra of the two enantiomers were virtually identical. The protonated molecule was readily observed at m/z 268. VX was incubated with human plasma for 13 min, followed by hexane extraction. The areas of the first and second eluting VX enantiomers decreased by approximately 40% and 6%, respectively, when compared with VX-spiked plasma samples that were not allowed an incubation phase. Currently, research by others has been directed towards the identification, isolation, and possible modification of enzymes capable of hydrolyzing VX. The method presented here provides an analytical tool capable of monitoring the stereospecificity of enzymes that react with VX.

Two data-processing techniques based on wavelet transforms were used to determine the change in the nonstationary nature of the RRI time series with changing negative pressure. The results suggest that autonomic neural mechanism driving cardiac interbeat intervals during central hypovolemia go through various levels of multifractality, as determined by Hoelder exponent distributions.

The direct contribution of observed sea ice variability to precipitation has not yet been investigated. The sensitivity of Antarctic precipitation to a range of sea ice concentrations is investigated using the Community Climate Model version 3 (CCM3) general circulation model. Sea ice concentrations derived from passive-microwave satellite imagery from 1979 to 1991 are used as surface boundary conditions for climate simulations in a model that resolves both ice-covered and ice-free fractions of each grid cell. Simulations are performed with climatological average ice concentrations, maximum and minimum concentrations, and an ensemble of simulations with interannually varying concentrations from 1979 to 1991. The minimum-ice run produces greater precipitation and onshore winds along the Antarctic coastal topography, except for the western Antarctic, where offshore winds reduce precipitation. The interannually varying model runs exhibit a seasonal response consistent with this picture, as greater precipitation is associated with reduced ice concentrations. The satellite-derived ice concentrations used here (and the model simulations) exhibit significant differences between the periods of coverage from the two satellite instruments with different spatial resolutions and other characteristics. The results suggest that variability in sea ice concentrations does contribute to variability in Antarctic precipitation; however, the modeled precipitation has a greater response to the instrument-related differences than to the estimated ice variability.

AN - 66681584; 15234435 AB - The purpose of this study was to assess the follow-up of patients with vaccinia-associated myocarditis. With the threat of biological warfare, the U.S. Department of Defense resumed a program for widespread smallpox vaccinations on December 13, 2002. One-year afterwards, there has been a significant increase in the occurrence of myocarditis and pericarditis among those vaccinated. Cases were identified through sentinel reporting to military headquarters, systematic surveillance, and spontaneous reports. A total of 540,824 military personnel were vaccinated with a New York City Board of Health strain of vaccinia from December 2002 through December 2003. Of these, 67 developed myopericarditis at 10.4 +/- 3.6 days after vaccination. The ST-segment elevation was noted in 57%, mean troponin on admission was 11.3+/- 22.7 ng/dl, and peak cardiac enzymes were noted within 8 h of presentation. On follow-up of 64 patients (96%) at a mean of 32 +/- 16 weeks, all patients had objective normalization of echocardiography, electrocardiography, laboratory testing, graded exercise testing, and functional status; 8 (13%) reported atypical, non-limiting persistent chest discomfort. Post-vaccinial myopericarditis should be considered in patients with chest pain within 30 days after smallpox vaccination. Normalization of echocardiography, electrocardiography, and treadmill testing is expected, and nearly all patients have resolution of chest pain on follow-up.

Such species may not be the most predictive or ecologically relevant gauges of the responses of instream benthic macroinvertebrates to certain stressors, such as total dissolved solids. An indigenous species approach should be adopted, using a sensitive benthic collector-filterer following development of practical laboratory bioassays. In the Leading Creek Watershed (southeast Ohio), an aggregated 99% reduction in mean mayfly abundance for all impacted sites was observed below a coal-mine effluent with mean specific conductivity (SC) of 8,109 (7,750-8,750) kS cm super(-1). The mayfly, Isonychia, was exposed for 7-days to a simulation of this effluent, in lotic microcosms. Based on lowest observable adverse effect concentrations, Isonychia survival was a more sensitiveendpoint to SC (1,562 kS cm super(-1)) than were 7-day C. dubia survival and fecundity (3,730 kS cm super(-1)). Isonychia molting, a potentially more sensitive endpoint, was also examined. Using traditional test species to assess discharges to surface water alone may not adequately protect benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages in systems impaired by discharges high in SC.

AN - 72003712; 15183769 AB - High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and selected ion monitoring mass spectrometry (MS) were used to develop a quantitative assay for adenine released from a synthetic RNA substrate by ricin A chain, which contains the toxin's N-glycosidase activity. Because ricin and ricin A chain have potential applications as biotherapeutics and bioweapons, assays are needed to evaluate potency and potential inhibitors of activity. The detection limit for adenine was 0.02 microM (2.4 ng/ml), and the standard curve was linear up to 27.3 microM. The lower limit of quantitation was 0.27 microM and was reproducible throughout this range. Reaction characterization showed that most adenine was released by 5h and that the reaction could not be fully stopped with formic acid concentrations up to 0.75 mM (the maximum typically used for HPLC-MS). Injections were made at 2-min intervals, 10 injections could be performed before the column was backflushed, and no ricin A chain was observed in the column effluent. This assay would also be useful for ricin since ricin A chain did not pass through the HPLC column. With minor modifications to this system, the assay should provide rapid, sensitive, selective, and quantitative assessment of the activity of most ribosome-inactivating proteins. In addition, further chromatographic and mass spectrometric improvements could reduce sample requirements and analysis times.

AN - 66775472; 15303300 AB - The objective of this research was to investigate a sequentially loaded and regenerated granular activated carbon (GAC) biofilter system and to determine whether regenerative ozonation/advanced oxidation could improve the removal and biodegradation of a volatile organic compound from a contaminated airstream. Bench-scale reactors were constructed to operate in a manner analogous to a commercially available system manufactured by Terr-Aqua Environmental Systems (only with longer contact time). The GAC system consisted of two GAC biofilter beds that operated in a cyclical manner. On a given day, the first GAC bed adsorbed methyl isobutyl ketone from a simulated waste airstream, while the second bed underwent regeneration; then on the next day, the second bed was in the adsorption mode while the first was regenerated. Three bench-scale systems were used to compare the performance under three operating conditions: (1) ozone/ associated oxidant regeneration of a GAC biofilter system that was seeded with microorganisms from a field site, (2) a humid air regeneration of a seeded GAC biofilter, and (3) a humid air regeneration of an unseeded GAC biofilter. For the advanced oxidant regenerated GAC biofilter, a maximum removal efficiency of >95% was achieved with an empty bed contact time of 148 sec and an influent concentration of 125 ppm methyl isobutyl ketone, and 90-95% was achieved at 148-sec empty bed contact time and a 1150-ppm influent.

AN - 66685494; 15239859 AB - Huperzine A (Hup A) is under investigation as a treatment of Alzheimer's disease because of its properties of reversible and specific AChE inhibition. It has additional interesting pharmacological effects such as the protection of primary neuronal cells isolated from embryonic rat brains from glutamate-induced toxicity. We have isolated a new compound which has similar absorbance characteristics as Hup A from blood of rats administered Hup A. Monitoring the effluent from reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) of blood collected 60 min after Hup A treatment at an absorbance of 308 nm (lambdamax for Hup A), yielded a peak height and area for this compound that was approximately 1.4-fold the initial Hup A peak. The compound was isolated from RP-HPLC fractions from blood and liver for analysis by mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The compound gave an (M+H)+ ion with m/z 259 in positive ion mode, yielding a molecular weight (MW) of 258. If derived from Hup A (MW 242), the change in MW indicates a mass gain of 16. This would be consistent with the addition of a single oxygen or a hydroxylation. To determine the location of the modification, it was examined by 1H NMR, and it was found that the added mass was due to a single epoxidation yielding 13,14-epoxy Hup-A.

AN - 66643287; 15215119 AB - The clinical potential of mefloquine has been compromised by reports of adverse neurological effects. A series of 4-quinolinecarbinolamines were compared in terms of neurotoxicity and antimalarial activity in an attempt to identify replacement drugs. Neurotoxicity (MTT [thiazolyl blue reduction] assay) was assessed by exposure of cultured embryonic rat neurons to graded concentrations of the drugs for 20 min. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) of mefloquine was 25 microM, while those of the analogs were 19 to 200 microM. The relative (to mefloquine) therapeutic indices of the analogs were determined after using the tritiated hypoxanthine assay for assessment of the antimalarial activity of the analogs against mefloquine-sensitive (W2) and -resistant (D6 and TM91C235) Plasmodium falciparum strains. Five analogs, WR157801, WR073892, WR007930, WR007333, and WR226253, were less neurotoxic than mefloquine and exhibited higher relative therapeutic indices (RTIs) against TM91C235 (2.9 to 12.2). Conventional quinoline antimalarials were generally less neurotoxic (IC(50)s of 400, 600, and 900 for amodiaquine, chloroquine, and quinine) or had higher RTIs (e.g., 30 for halofantrine against TM91C235). The neurotoxicity data for the 4-quinolinecarbinolamines were used to develop a three-dimensional (3D), function-based pharmacophore. The crucial molecular features correlated with neurotoxicity were a hydrogen bond acceptor (lipid) function, an aliphatic hydrophobic function, and a ring aromatic function specifically distributed in the 3D surface of the molecule. Mapping of the 3D structures of a series of structurally diverse quinolines to the pharmacophore allowed accurate qualitative predictions of neurotoxicity (or not) to be made. Extension of this in silico screening approach may aid in the identification of less-neurotoxic quinoline analogs.

The Minnesota River, located 97 km upstream of Lake Pepin, accounted for most of the annual and summer TSS and total P load while the Metropolitan Wastewater Treatment Plant, located 80 km upstream of Lake Pepin, accounted for much of the annual soluble reactive P (SRP) loading to the UMR. Lake Pepin retained 80% and 13% of the TSS and total P load, respectively, during the summer period. However, the lake was a source of SRP during the same period, exporting up to 130% of the summer SRP load it received. Diffusive P flux from profundal sediments averaged 7.5 mg m (super -2) d (super -1) during the summer, accounting for 41% of the net SRP export from the lake. Recently deposited sediments in Lake Pepin (originating primarily from the Minnesota River) also exhibited a high equilibrium P concentration (EPC = 0.155 mg l (super -1) ) and linear adsorption coefficient (K (sub d) = 1043 l kg (super -1) ). Application of these P equilibrium characteristics to TSS loads entering the system resulted in a calculated potential P desorption flux from TSS of 2.0 mg m (super -2) d (super -1) during the summer. Potential P desorption flux to the system was driven by dilution of SRP concentrations in the Mississippi River below the EPC by SRP-deficient inflows of the St Croix River, located 16 km upstream of the lake. P desorption was, thus, an important additional internal P flux that is not commonly included in P budgets of riverine systems. Published in 2004 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Vertical thin sections of cores taken from the ice cover in these regions show distinct layering structure. These observations suggest wave rafting could play a significant role in defining the ice cover thickness, much more so than thermodynamic growth. Although wave rafting is intuitively apparent, no previous study relating the resulting ice cover to wave characteristics has been conducted. In this study we utilize both laboratory experiments and numerical simulations to determine the rafting process. We propose a theory that predicts a final equilibrium thickness, provided that the incoming wave is kept constant. The equilibrium thickness from the theory is proportional to the square of the wave amplitude and the square of the floe diameter and is inversely proportional to the cube of the wavelength.

The results were used to improve manufacturing processes. Grade-V liver injuries were induced in swine and treated with gauze sponges (GAU), the prototype dressings (DFSD-1), or the scaled-up production version dressings (DFSD-2 in experiment 1 and DFSD-3 in experiment 2). Blood loss, hemostasis, resuscitation volume, and 60-min survival were quantified. In experiment 1, the DFSD-1 treatment reduced blood loss (p < 0.01), increased hemostasis at 4 min (p < 0.05), and improved survival (p < 0.05) compared with GAU. The DFSHD-2 decreased blood loss (p < 0.05) but did not increase hemostasis or survival significantly. Based on these results, manufacturing processes were altered, producing DFSD-3. In experiment 2, the DFSD-1 and DFSD-3 were equally effective in reducing blood loss (p < 0.01) and resuscitation volume (p < 0.05) compared with GAU. Hemostasis occurred more frequently in both the DFSD-1 and DFSD-3 groups (p < 0.01) compared with GAU. The structural design of DFSD-2 did not meet the efficacy requirement for release of the product. The subsequent change incorporated in DFSD-3 improved all hemostatic parameters of the dressings equal to those of the prototype product.

During the development of a new anthrax vaccine based upon recombinant protective antigen (rPA) adsorbed to aluminum hydroxide gel (Alhydrogel), we found that the serological response of female A/J mice, as measured by a quantitative anti-rPA IgG ELISA, may be an effective method to monitor a manufacturer's consistency for rPA-based vaccines. An advantage of the proposed in vitro-based potency assay is that it will not need stringent biosafety containment measures as required by the current guinea pig potency assay.

For localized (paucibacillary, PB) and disseminated (multibacillary, MB) leprosy, characterized by polarized Th1-like vs. Th2-like immune responses, respectively, little is known about lesional apoptosis. We analyzed sections of paraffin-embedded, untreated leprosy lesions from 21 patients by an indirect immunofluorescent terminal deoxynucleotide-transferase-mediated dUTP-digoxigenin nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay. Some TUNEL (+) PB sections were then reacted with phycoerythrin-conjugated (red) antibodies against T cells, monocytes, or antigen-presenting (Langerhans) cells. TUNEL (+) bodies were detected in 9 of 16 PB lesions (56%) and in 1 of 5 MB lesions (20%). Some TUNEL (+) bodies in PB disease were CD3+ (T cell), as well as CD4+ (T-helper) or CD8+ (T-cytotoxic).

In this study we genetically and physiologically characterized the Burkholderia thailandensis DW503 QS network. In silico analysis of the B. thailandensis genome revealed the presence of at least three AHL synthases (AHS) and five transcriptional regulators belonging to the LuxIR family of proteins. Mass spectrometry demonstrated that wild-type B. thailandensis synthesizes N-hexanoyl-homoserine lactone (C sub(6)-HSL), N-octanoyl-homoserine lactone (C sub(8)-HSL), and N-decanoyl-homoserine lactone (C sub(10)-HSL). Mutation of the btaI1 (luxI) AHS gene prevented accumulation of C sub(8)-HSL in culture supernatants, enhanced beta-hemolysis of sheep erythrocytes, increased lipase production, and altered colony morphology on swarming and twitching motility plates. Disruption of the btaI3 (luxI) AHS prevented biosynthesis of C sub(6)-HSL and increased lipase production and beta-hemolysis, whereas mutagenesis of the btaI2 (luxI) allele eliminated C sub(10)-HSL accumulation and reduced lipase production. Complementation of the btaI1 and btaI3 mutants fully restored the synthesis of C sub(8)-HSL and C sub(6)-HSL to parental levels. In contrast, mutagenesis of the btaR1, btaR3, btaR4, and btaR5 (luxR) transcriptional regulators had no effect on AHL accumulation, enhanced lipase production, and resulted in extensive beta-hemolysis on sheep blood agar plates. Furthermore, interruption of the btaI1, btaR1, and btaR3 genes altered colony morphology on twitching and swarming motility plates and induced pigmentation. Additionally, phenotypic microarray analysis indicated that QS in B. thailandensis both positively and negatively affects the metabolism of numerous substrates, including citric acid, formic acid, glucose 6-phosphate, capric acid, gamma -hydroxybutyric acid, and D-arabinose. These results demonstrate that mutagenesis of the B. thailandensis QS system affects various cellular processes, including lipase production, swarming and twitching motility, beta-hemolysis of sheep erythrocytes, and carbon metabolism and/or transport.

In addition, Brucella is recognized as a biowarfare threat agent. Although a vaccine to protect humans from natural or deliberate infection could be useful, vaccines presently used in animals are unsuitable for human use. We tested orally administered live, attenuated, purine auxotrophic B. melitensis WR201 bacteria for their ability to elicit cellular and humoral immune responses and to protect mice against intranasal challenge with B. melitensis 16M bacteria. Immunized mice made serum antibody to lipopolysaccharide and non-O-polysaccharide antigens. Splenocytes from immunized animals released interleukin-2 and gamma interferon when grown in cultures with Brucella antigens. Immunization led to protection from disseminated infection and enhanced clearance of the challenge inoculum from the lungs. Optimal protection required administration of live bacteria, was related to immunizing dose, and was enhanced by booster immunization. These results establish the usefulness of oral vaccination against respiratory challenge with virulent Brucella and suggest that WR201 should be further investigated as a vaccine to prevent human brucellosis.

Both in situ and in vivo models were used to assess the efficacy of postexposure treatment of phosgene-induced lung injury using clinically existing drugs. The degree of efficacy was judged by examining treatment effects on pulmonary edema formation (PEF) as measured by wet/dry weight (WW/DW) ratios, real-time (in situ) lung weight gain (LWG), survival rates (SR), odds ratios, and glutathione (GSH) redox states. Drugs included N-acetylcysteine (NAC), ibuprofen (IBU), aminophylline (AMIN), and isoproterenol (ISO). Using the in situ isolated perfused rabbit lung model (IPRLM), intratracheal (IT) NAC (40 mg/kg bolus) delivered 45-60 min after phosgene exposure (650 mg/m3) for10 min lowered pulmonary artery pressure, LWG, leukotrienes (LT) C4/D4/E4, lipid peroxidation, and oxidized GSH. We concluded that NAC protected against phosgene-induced lung injury by acting as an antioxidant by maintaining protective levels of GSH, reducing both lipid peroxidation and production of arachidonic acid metabolites. Also in IPRLM, administration of AMIN (30 mg/kg) 80-90 min after phosgene exposure significantly reduced lipid peroxidation and perfusate LTC4/D4/E4, reduced LWG, and prevented phosgene-induced decreases in lung tissue cAMP. These data suggest that protective mechanisms observed with AMIN involve decreased LTC4/D4/E4 mediated pulmonary capillary permeability and attenuated lipid peroxidation. Direct antipermeability effects of AMIN-induced upregulation of cAMP on cellular contraction may also be important in protection against phosgene-induced lung injury. Posttreatment with ISO in the IPRLM by either combined intravascular (iv; infused into pulmonary artery at 24 g/min infused) + IT (24 g bolus) or IT route alone 50-60 min after phosgene exposure significantly lowered pulmonary artery pressure, tracheal pressure, and LWG. ISO treatment significantly enhanced GSH products or maintained protective levels when compared with results from phosgene-exposed only rabbits. These data suggest that protective mechanisms for ISO involve reduction in vascular pressure, decreased LTC4/D4/E4-mediated pulmonary capillary permeability, and favorably maintained lung tissue GSH redox states. For in vivo male mouse (CD-1, 25-30 g) studies IBU was administered ip within 20 min after a lethal dose of phosgene (32 mg/m3 for 20 min) at 0 (saline), 3, 9, or 15 mg/mouse. Five hours later, a second IBU injection was given but at half the original doses (0, 1.5, 4.5, and 7.5 mg/mouse); therefore, these treatment groups are now referred to as the 0/0, 3/1.5, 9/4.5, and 15/7.5 mg IBU/mouse groups. SRs and odds ratios were calculated for each dose at 12 and 24 h. The 12-h survival was 63% for 9/4.5 mg IBU and 82% for the 15/7.5 mg IBU groups, compared with 25% for saline-treated phosgene-exposed mice. At 24 h, those survival rates were reduced to 19%, 19%, and 6%, respectively. In the 15/7.5 mg IBU group, lung WW/DW ratios were significantly lower than in saline-treated mice at 12 h. Lipid peroxidation was lower only for the 9/4.5 mg IBU dose; however, nonprotein sulfhydryls (a measure of GSH) were greater across all IBU doses. The odds ratio was 5 for the 9/4.5 IBU group at 12 h and 13 for the 15/7.5 mg IBU group, compared with 3.5 for both groups at 24 h. IBU posttreatment increased the survival of mice at 12 h by reducing PEF, lipid peroxidation, and GSH depletion. In conclusion, effective treatment of phosgene-induced lung injury involves early postexposure intervention that could reduce free radical species responsible for lipid peroxidation, correct the imbalance in the GSH redox state, and prevent the release of biological mediators such as leukotrienes, which are accountable for increased permeability.

A CDF is a diked enclosure having structures that retain dredged material solids. When contaminated dredged material is placed in a CDF, contaminants may be mobilized to form leachate that may be transported to the site boundaries by seepage. The purpose of this research is to examine the components of steady-state leachate attenuation in aquifers and to develop a predictive screening tool. The main factors affecting leachate transport and dilution through the saturated zone of an aquifer are evaluated to develop a guidance procedure to assist in decision making regarding the use of leachate controls in the CDF. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys' MULTIMED model is used to develop predictive equations for the effects of recharge and lateral and vertical dispersion processes on centerline concentrations in the aquifer. The results show that the effects of these processes can be predicted independently. Relationships were developed to estimate the attenuation factor for each process. An equation for centerline leachate concentration using attenuation factors is developed to predict peak leachate exposure for decision making.

This paper summarizes research efforts and resulting conclusions by the US Army Corps of Engineers, New England District, beginning with the Scientific Report Series and continuing with the Disposal Area Monitoring System (DAMOS). Using a tiered approach to monitoring and a wide range of tools, the DAMOS program has monitored short- and long-term physical and biological effects of disposal at designated disposal sites throughout New England waters. The DAMOS program has also helped develop new techniques for safe ocean disposal of contaminated sediments, including capping and confined aquatic disposal (CAD) cells. Monitoring conducted at many sites in New England and around the world has shown that impacts are typically near-field and short-term. Findings such as these need to be disseminated to the general public, whose perception of dredged material disposal is generally negative and is not strongly rooted in current science.

AN - 85383683; pmid-15212570 AB - Assessment of tongue strength and endurance is common in research and clinical contexts. It is unclear whether the results reveal discrete function by the tongue or combined abilities of the tongue and jaw. One way to isolate the movement of the tongue is to constrain the jaw kinematically by using a bite block. In this study, 10 neurologically normal young adults performed tongue strength and endurance tasks without a bite block ("jaw-free") and with bite blocks of various heights (2, 5, 10, and 15 mm for strength; 5 mm for endurance). Data signals included tongue pressure exerted on an air-filled bulb, surface electromyography (SEMG) from the superior tongue blade, and SEMG from 1 masseter. On average, tongue strength (pressure in kPa) was greatest with no bite block and generally decreased as bite blocks increased in height. Pairwise analyses revealed statistically significant differences for all but 3 comparisons (jaw-free to 2 mm, 2 to 5 mm, and 5 to 10 mm). After removing outlying data from 1 participant, tongue endurance at 50% of tongue strength was significantly greater without a bite block than with one. SEMG data did not differ significantly for the strength task across bite block conditions, but inspection of the individual data revealed a tendency for masseter activity to be lower when the jaw was unconstrained. These results suggest that maximal tongue strength and endurance are best assessed with an unconstrained mandible or with a very small bite block.

A rotary-tube cutter takes fairly consistent samples in a variety of soil conditions. Each sample bag holds about 30 samples to form a composite that represents the sampled area. An onboard carousel holds six bags: five composite samples and a sixth bag to clean the tube to minimize cross-contamination. We designed the robot to operate autonomously to collect a composite sample, log the coordinates of the area sampled, complete a composite within about 20 minutes, and operate without intervention for about 2 hours. A person may tele-operate the robot between sampling areas and to and from a base station where batteries and sample bags may be replenished.

Their effects on plants have not been sufficiently investigated. To address this problem, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, together with stakeholders, is developing Ecological Soil Screening Level (Eco-SSL) values for use in Ecological Risk Assessment of chemicals often found at Superfund sites, including explosives. We performed plant toxicity tests to develop Eco-SSL values for two energetic materials (EMs), hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) and 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) using adapted ASTM and U.S. EPA guidelines. Alfalfa, Japanese millet, and perennial ryegrass were subjected to various levels of the two EMs in 5 soil types having different levels of clay (12% to 37%), organic matter (1% to 5%), and pH (4.4 to 7.4). Growth chamber tests were conducted at 22 + 2 degree C and 16 h light/8 h dark cycle with >70% relative humidity. Percent seed germination and shoot wet and dry mass were measured after a two-week growth period. Preliminary results showed TNT toxicity to all species tested. Lowest Observed Adverse Effect Concentration (LOAEC) of TNT ranged from 100 mg/kg to 400 mg/kg. Soil type had no effect on TNT toxicity. RDX was not toxic to any of the species tested in all soils tested up to 10,000 mg/kg. Results of ongoing studies with TNT amended soils will be used to determine the effective concentration producing 20% reduction in biomass (EC sub(20)) for Eco-SSL development.

The CE-QUAL-ICM eutrophication model has been revised and recalibrated to provide management guidance in alleviating impaired clarity. The algorithms used to model light attenuation and suspended solids are presented herein. Computed and observed total and volatile solids and light attenuation are examined in several formats. A solids budget constructed for the bay identifies major solids sources as internal production, bank erosion, and watershed loading. Sensitivity to loading sources and a key management scenario are examined. Major but feasible reductions in solids and nutrient loads, coupled with reductions in bank erosion, are calculated to meet clarity goals at the 1-m depth in the main bay and major eastern embayments. Careful examination of model results at small scales is required to verify large-scale findings, however. We recommend major improvements in monitoring, computation of light attenuation, and in sediment transport modeling to improve the state of the art in modeling and management of water clarity.

Once created, these droplets accelerate to the local wind speed in 1 s or less and thereby extract momentum from the wind. Because these droplets have substantial mass, they eventually plunge back into the ocean, delivering their horizontal momentum to the surface in the form of a spray stress. Inadequate information on the production rate and size distribution of spray droplets, however, hampered previous attempts to estimate the magnitude of this spray-mediated momentum exchange. This paper therefore uses recent estimates of the spray generation function to reconsider spray's ability to alter air-sea momentum exchange. Conservation of momentum requires that spray cannot enhance the air- sea stress beyond what the large-scale flow dictates. However, spray can redistribute stress in the near-surface atmosphere since the wind must slow if the spray droplets accelerate. For a wind of 30 m s-1, spray supports about 10% of the surface stress; for a wind of about 60 m s-1, spray supports all of the surface stress. The paper goes on to show how this partitioning affects the near-surface wind speed profile. Last, the paper reviews evidence that suggests the sea surface undergoes a transition in its aerodynamic behavior in the wind speed range 30-40 m s-1. The fact that whitecap coverage extrapolates to 100% in this range may be one cause. Also in this range, the 'rain' of spray droplets back onto the sea surface creates a mass flux with a magnitude that has been shown to damp the short waves that sustain most of the atmospheric drag on the sea surface. As a consequence, spray may play a key role in a negative feedback loop that limits air-sea momentum transfer.

AN - 19935967; 5960251 AB - Control of water is control of life. How we exercise this control reveals what we value, who we are, and what type of society we seek to become. Water management and its civil infrastructure is closely linked to our civic culture. Participation is central to such linkages. This paper looks at five dimensions of participation to discern why it is important to decision makers in water resources management.

During the traditional high-water period in the spring, the shoaling in this area occurs rapidly and can represent a hazard to deep-draft vessel traffic. The shoaling must be removed rapidly to maintain adequate channel depth. Currently, dredging of the channel at HOP is conducted using hopper dredges, primarily due to their mobility. Hydraulic dredges with conventional spudding systems and floating discharge pipelines, such as cutterhead dredges, are considered a safety hazard in this area due to their inability to rapidly (and consistently) move out of the way of vessel traffic. Unfortunately, hopper dredges simply move the dredged material out of the channel and redeposit it in open-water disposal sites at the heads of Pass A Loutre and South Pass. There are two disadvantages to this technique. First, the disposal sites periodically become so filled with material that the hoppers cannot bottom dump dredged material at the sites. The dredged material must be handled again at additional cost to provide sites for hopper disposal. Secondly, there is no beneficial use of the dredged material. Hopper dredges can use direct pump-out to place material beneficially in adjacent shallow open-water areas for marsh restoration, but this is considered costly and has never been done before at the HOP. This report presents the demonstration results of the dustpan dredge Beachbuilder using a flexible discharge at the Head of Passes/Southwest Pass on the Mississippi River in June 2002. Dustpan dredges equipped with a flexible-discharge floating hose and sufficient pumping capacity potentially have the mobility required for safe passage of vessel traffic and can economically pump dredged material the distances required for placement in a beneficial use scenario such as marsh construction. This report details and discusses the project activities, operational characteristics of the Beachbuilder, and feasibility of using a flexible-discharge dustpan dredge to augment the hydraulic dredging capabilities of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on the Mississippi and other rivers. The goal of this report is to use the project results to identify potential opportunities for reducing overall costs for channel maintenance and increasing beneficial use of dredged materials during dredging Corps navigation projects.

Continuous records since 1952 are available at a number of stations, and at several stations, acidity records date back to 1930. Comparable analysis techniques were maintained over the period of record, assuring the long term continuity of the database. This monitoring program has captured integrated long term trends within large and complex watersheds with numerous and varied types of mine discharges. The focus of this paper is a historical trend analysis of lightly to severely acid degraded major tributaries of the Allegheny River. Over the past three decades, all of the Allegheny River drainage basin stations have demonstrated steady and substantial declines in acidity and associated increases in pH and alkalinity. The average recorded decline in total acidity at four stations monitored since the 1950s was 94 percent. Since the 1970s, acidity declined by an average of 63 percent at 10 stations. Oxidative exhaustion of pyritic minerals exposed by mining is proposed as a major factor influencing these trends.

Neonate evergreen bagworms, Thyridopteryx ephemeraeformis (Haworth) (Lepidoptera: Psychidae), disperse by dropping on a strand of silk, termed silking, and ballooning on the wind. Larvae construct silken bags with fragments of plant foliage. This species is highly polyphagous, feeding on more than 125 species of woody plants of 45 families. The larvae commonly infests juniper (Juniperus spp.) and arborvitae (Thuja spp.), but rarely feed on deciduous hosts such as maples. The hypothesis is proposed that polyphagy in T. ephemeraeformis is maintained by variation among larvae in dispersal behaviour, and time constraints on the opportunity to disperse, but patterns of host species preference result from a predisposition for larvae to settle on arborvitae and juniper but disperse from other hosts. 2. Consistent with that hypothesis, laboratory experiments revealed: (a) starved larvae varied in their tendency to disperse from paper leaf models; (b) starved larvae readily silked only during their first day; (c) larvae became increasingly sedentary the longer they were exposed to plant foliage; (d) when provided with several opportunities to silk, larvae became sedentary after exposure to arborvitae foliage, but repeatedly silked after exposure to maple (Acer species) foliage or paper; and (e) larvae were less inclined to silk from foliage of arborvitae than from maple. 3. Field experiments supported the hypothesis by demonstrating that: (a) neonates tended to disperse from maple leaves while larvae older than 1 day tended to settle and remain; and (b) neonates were less likely to disperse from arborvitae and juniper trees than from maples.

Methods: There were 50 healthy young adults who remained awake for 54.5 h (06:30 day 1 to 13:00 day 3). A 10-min vigilance test was administered bi-hourly from 08:00 day 1 until 22:00 day 2. At 23:55 day 2 (after 41.5 h awake), double-blind administration of one of five drug doses (placebo; modafinil 100, 200, or 400 mg; or caffeine 600 mg; n = 10 per group) was followed by hourly testing from 00:00 through 12:00 day 3. Response speed (reciprocal of reaction time) across the 10-min task (by 1-min block) was analyzed prior to and after drug administration. Results: A fatigue effect (response speed degradation across the 10-min task) was exacerbated by sleep deprivation and circadian rhythmicity. Prior to the drug, this effect was maximal between 08:00 and 12:00 day 3 (24-28 h sleep deprivation). Modafinil 400 mg attenuated fatigue in a manner comparable to that seen with caffeine 600 mg; these effects were especially salient during the circadian nadir of performance (06:00 through 10:00); modafinil 200 mg also reversed fatigue, but for a shorter duration (3 min) than modafinil 400 mg (8 min) or caffeine 600 mg (6 min). Discussion and Conclusions: Time-on-task effects contributed to the performance degradation seen during sleep deprivation; effects which were reversed by caffeine and, at appropriate doses, by modafinil. Because the duration of efficacy for reversing time-on-task effects was shorter at lower drug dosages, the latter must be considered when determining the appropriate dose to use during sustained operations.

The genomic sequence of B. pseudomallei K96243 was recently determined, but little is known about the overall genetic diversity of this species. Suppression subtractive hybridization was employed to assess the genetic variability between two distinct clinical isolates of B. pseudomallei, 1026b and K96243. Numerous mobile genetic elements, including a temperate bacteriophage designated phi 1026b, were identified among the 1026b-specific suppression subtractive hybridization products. Bacteriophage phi 1026b was spontaneously produced by 1026b, and it had a restricted host range, infecting only Burkholderia mallei. It possessed a noncontractile tail, an isometric head, and a linear 54,865-bp genome. The mosaic nature of the phi 1026b genome was revealed by comparison with bacteriophage phi E125, a B. mallei-specific bacteriophage produced by Burkholderia thailandensis. The phi 1026b genes for DNA packaging, tail morphogenesis, host lysis, integration, and DNA replication were nearly identical to the corresponding genes in phi E125. On the other hand, phi 1026b genes involved in head morphogenesis were similar to head morphogenesis genes encoded by Pseudomonas putida and Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriophages. Consistent with this observation, immunogold electron microscopy demonstrated that polyclonal antiserum against phi E125 reacted with the tail of phi 1026b but not with the head. The results presented here suggest that B. pseudomallei strains are genetically heterogeneous and that bacteriophages are major contributors to the genomic diversity of this species. The bacteriophage characterized in this study may be a useful diagnostic tool for differentiating B. pseudomallei and B. mallei, two closely related biological threat agents.

Male animals were injected subcutaneously with sarin (GB), soman (GD) or VX once a day (Monday through Friday) for 2-, 4-, or 13-weeks. An initial 13-week study for each CWNA employed doses of vehicle (normal saline), 0.2x, 0.4x, 0.6x, and 0.8x the previously established acute LD sub(50). A 2-week and 4-week exposure were also performed for each agent at doses less than the 13-week MTD to verify lack of toxicity. Animals dosed daily for 13 weeks with 0.4x LD sub(50) of GB or GD or with 0.2x LD sub(50) of VX did not display signs of acute cholinergic toxicity. In animals dosed daily for either 2- or 4-weeks, the MTDs were 0.4x the acute LD sub(50) for all three CWNA. There were no differences among these groups and their respective vehicle controls for weight gains, body temperature, complete blood cell counts, blood chemistries, nor by histopathology. At the MTD in all groups, red blood cell cholinesterase activity one hour after the last exposure was inhibited up to 90% compared with controls. The toxicity observed with repeated doses above the MTD for up to chronic exposure durations was not significantly different from symptoms observed after acute exposure. For all three nerve agents the MTDs for subacute exposure durations can be expressed by the same constant fraction of the acute LD sub(50), despite differences in the absolute amount of nerve agent administered.

To detect SM-induced DNA single strand breaks in human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL), cells were exposed to various concentrations of SM (10 to 1000 mu M), and the comet assay (single-cell gel electrophoresis) was performed. We observed a SM concentration- and time-dependent increase in detectable DNA damage. To test whether SM-induced DNA cross-linking inhibits DNA migration in the comet assay, PBL were exposed to a) SM alone (10 to 1000 mu M), b) H sub(2)O sub(2) (0.001%), which produces DNA single strand breaks with no cross-links, or c) SM followed at 2, 4, or 6 h by H sub(2)O sub(2). With H sub(2)O sub(2) alone, a large amount of strand breakage was detected. With H sub(2)O sub(2) plus SM, detectable H sub(2)O sub(2)-induced strand breaks decreased as SM concentration increased up to 30 mu M; at 30 mu M and above, the response with H sub(2)O sub(2) plus SM was similar to that with SM alone. Interference with the detection of H sub(2)O sub(2)-induced DNA strand breaks appears to be SM concentration-dependent up to 30 mu M, and independent of SM concentration at =30 mu M. This is presumably due to SM-induced cross-linking. It follows that cross-linking in DNA of SM-exposed PBL also interferes with DNA migration and detection of DNA strand breaks when cells are exposed to SM alone.

Several fundamental parameters of the ELISA were evaluated: specificity, precision, accuracy, linearity, and stability. Experimental results suggested that the quantitative anti-rPA IgG ELISA could be used to measure antibody levels in female A/J mice and may be useful as a potency assay to monitor consistency of manufacture of a rPA-based vaccine for planned clinical trials.

Because playas are considered 'Waters of the United States' (WoUS) under Federal Regulations 33 CFR 328.3 [a], their jurisdictional extent is delineated by either observation of ponded water or physical characteristics that represent ordinary high water marks that remain after the water has receded. To date, no surface hydrologic studies have described the frequency and duration of ponded water within desert playa systems to facilitate the understanding of 'ordinary' for delineation purposes. To establish a baseline to support further the concept of 'ordinary,' we used 20 years of historical satellite imagery of playas in the western Mojave Desert, California, in combination with 59 years of precipitation records, to provide a case study of frequency and duration of ponding in playas in the arid southwestern United States. Ponding was found to occur for at least 16 days, with a frequency of 51% or approximately every other year. We estimated the average antecedent precipitation needed to initiate ponding to be 8.29 cm. In years when rainfall exceeded 8.29 cm between October and March, the playas also ponded for 16 days into the growing season (March-November). The total length of the ponding period through the wet season ranged between 1 and 32 weeks, with a predictable relationship between length of inundation and total rainfall during the wet season. This range of occurrence of ponded water on these arid playas expresses the climatically unevenly distributed precipitation pattern, both spatial and temporally. Analysis of the ponding duration and frequency from this study site acts as a baseline for further refinement of the concept of ordinary high water and provides a basis for further development of field indicators for delineation purposes of arid southwestern playas.

Mass- based pyrolysis-gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (Py-GC-IMS) and particle-based UV-vis fluorescence technologies were spatially situated for spore and protein bioaerosol detection in a Southeastern prairie region in Alberta, Canada. Orthogonal systems analyses versus individual detector results were investigated for the temporal characterization of bioaerosols. The systems responded to low agent analyte-containing particles per liter of air (PLA) concentrations, and were verified by reference samplers. An orthogonal technologies sensor system appears to be attractive for a high confidence detection of presence and temporal characterization of bioaerosols.

AN - 85391145; pmid-15506497 AB - The improvement in speech recognition in noise obtained with directional microphones compared to omnidirectional microphones is referred to as the directional advantage. Laboratory studies have revealed substantial differences in the magnitude of the directional advantage across hearing-impaired listeners. This investigation examined whether persons who were successful users of directional microphone hearing aids in everyday living tended to obtain a larger directional advantage in the test booth than persons who were unsuccessful users. Results revealed that the mean directional advantage did not differ significantly between patients who used the directional mode regularly and those who reported little or no benefit from directional microphones in daily living and, therefore, tended to leave their hearing aids set in the default omnidirectional mode. Success with directional microphone hearing aids in everyday living, therefore, cannot be reliably predicted by the magnitude of the directional advantage obtained in the clinic.

AN - 85390506; pmid-15506496 AB - Persons with impaired hearing who are candidates for amplification are not all equally successful with hearing aids in daily living. Having the ability to predict success with amplification in everyday life from measures that can be obtained during an initial evaluation of the patient's candidacy would result in greater patient satisfaction with hearing aids and more efficient use of clinical resources. This study investigated the relationship between various demographic and audiometric measures, and two measures of hearing aid success in 50 hearing aid wearers. Audiometric predictors included measures of audibility and suprathreshold distortion. The unaided and aided signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) loss on the QuickSIN test provided the best predictors of hearing aid success in daily living. However, much of this predictive relationship appeared attributable to the patient's age.

AN - 85387598; pmid-15506498 AB - Seventeen hearing-impaired adults were fit with omnidirectional/directional hearing aids, which they wore during a four-week trial. For each listening situation encountered in daily living during a total of seven days, participants selected the preferred microphone mode and described the listening situation in terms of five environmental variables, using a paper and pencil form. Results indicated that hearing-impaired adults typically spend the majority of their active listening time in situations with background noise present and surrounding the listener, and the signal source located in front and relatively near. Microphone preferences were fairly evenly distributed across listening situations but differed depending on the characteristics of the listening environment. The omnidirectional mode tended to be preferred in relatively quiet listening situations or, in the presence of background noise, when the signal source was relatively far away. The directional mode tended to be preferred when background noise was present and the signal source was located in front of and relatively near the listener. Results suggest that knowing only signal location and distance and whether background noise is present or absent, omnidirectional/directional hearing aids can be set in the preferred mode in most everyday listening situations. These findings have relevance for counseling patients when to set manually switchable omnidirectional/directional hearing aids in each microphone mode, as well as for the development of automatic algorithms for selecting omnidirectional versus directional microphone processing.

AN - 71954571; 15155981 AB - Malaria vaccine RTS,S combined with thrombospondin-related anonymous protein (TRAP) and formulated with AS02A (RTS,S+TRAP/AS02A) is safe and immunogenic in adult humans and rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta). Here, RTS,S+TRAP/AS02A was administered on a 0-, 1-, and 3-month schedule to three cohorts of infant monkeys, along with adult comparators. Cohort 1 evaluated 1/5, 1/2, and full adult doses, with the first dose administration at one month of age; cohort 2 monkeys received full adult doses, with the first dose administration at one versus three months of age; and, cohort 3 compared infants gestated in mothers with or without previous RTS,S/AS02A immunization. Immunization site reactogenicity was mild. Some infants, including the phosphate-buffered saline only recipient, developed transient iron-deficiency anemia, which is considered a result of repeated phlebotomies. All RTS,S+TRAP/AS02A regimens induced vigorous antibody responses that persisted through 12 weeks after the last vaccine dose. Modest lymphoproliferative and ELISPOT (interferon-gamma and interleukin-5) responses, particularly to TRAP, approximated adult comparators. RTS,S+TRAP/AS02A was safe and well tolerated. Vigorous antibody production and modest, selective cell-mediated immune responses suggest that RTS,S+TRAP/AS02A may be immunogenic in human infants.

AN - 71895267; 15121847 AB - The Rad6-Rad18 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme complex of Saccharomyces cerevisiae promotes replication through DNA lesions via three separate pathways that include translesion synthesis (TLS) by DNA polymerases zeta (Polzeta) and Poleta and postreplicational repair mediated by the Mms2-Ubc13 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme and Rad5. Here we report our studies with a proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) mutation, pol30-119, which results from a change of the lysine 164 residue to arginine. It has been shown recently that following treatment of yeast cells with DNA-damaging agents, the lysine 164 residue of PCNA becomes monoubiquitinated in a Rad6-Rad18-dependent manner and that subsequently this PCNA residue is polyubiquitinated via a lysine 63-linked ubiquitin chain in an Mms2-Ubc13-, Rad5-dependent manner. PCNA is also modified by SUMO conjugation at the lysine 164 residue. Our genetic studies with the pol30-119 mutation show that in addition to conferring a defect in Polzeta-dependent UV mutagenesis and in Poleta-dependent TLS, this PCNA mutation inhibits postreplicational repair of discontinuities that form in the newly synthesized strand across from UV lesions. In addition, we provide evidence for the activation of the RAD52 recombinational pathway in the pol30-119 mutant and we infer that SUMO conjugation at the lysine 164 residue of PCNA has a role in suppressing the Rad52-dependent postreplicational repair pathway.

AN - 71871743; 15110054 AB - Following the tragic events of 9/11/2001, the Pentagon Post Disaster Health Assessment (PPDHA) survey was created to identify healthcare needs and concerns among Pentagon personnel and to assure that appropriate care and information was provided. The PPDHA was fielded from October 15, 2001, to January 15, 2002. Fundamental in this assessment was the evaluation of the mental health impact as a result of the attack. Although a number of standardized instruments exist for mental health domains, most are lengthy and could not be used as a rapid health assessment. Instead, a short screening instrument consisting of 17 questions was developed that covered important mental health symptom domains, mental health functioning, and possible predictive risk factors. High-risk groups for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, panic attacks, generalized anxiety, and alcohol abuse were assessed, and validation of risk groups was assessed across functional levels. Overall, 1837 (40%) respondents met the screening criteria for any of the symptom domains of interest 1 to 4 months after the attack: PTSD (7.9%), depression (17.7%), panic attacks (23.1%), generalized anxiety (26.9%), or alcohol abuse (2.5%). Mental health risk groups were highly correlated with self-reported reduced daily functioning and use of counseling services. Additionally, risk factors known to be associated with mental health problems after traumatic events were strongly predictive of the high-risk categories identified. Mental health concerns were common among Pentagon employees in the 4 months after the 9/11 attack. Data from this study suggested that the short mental health screening instrument had validity and can serve as a prototype for rapid public health assessment of the mental health impact of future traumatic events.

AN - 71793610; 15060728 AB - In previous work, we studied the anaerobic biodegradation of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) by a methanogenic mixed culture that biodegrades RDX by using H2 as the sole electron donor. Strain HAAP-1 was isolated after enriching for the homoacetogens in a mineral medium containing RDX and an H2-CO2 (80:20) headspace. Strain HAAP-1 degraded 29.0 microM RDX in <14 days and formed 13.0 mM acetate when grown in a mineral medium with an H2-CO2 headspace. Methylenedinitramine was observed as a transient intermediate, indicating ring cleavage had occurred. In live cultures containing an N2-CO2 headspace, RDX was not degraded, and no acetate was formed. The 16S rRNA gene sequence for strain HAAP-1, consisting of 1485 base pairs, had a 99.2% and 99.1% sequence similarity to Acetobacterium malicum and A. wieringae, respectively. This is the first report of RDX degradation by a homoacetogen growing autotrophically and extends the number of genera known to carry out this transformation.

Four findings emerge from the analysis of this relationship. First, the regional associations underutilize the populations they represent. Second, the constituencies of the national & regional associations are diverging. Third, the regional associations appear no longer to serve as a viable pathway for involvement in the leadership of the national association. Fourth, the disciplinary visibility of the regional associations' journals has declined, on average, since 1990. These four outcomes reflect a disciplinary drift toward internal differentiation, which can only be understood as a manifestation of the culture of US sociology. Specifically, the discipline is becoming increasingly incoherent as a result of the inaccurate perception it holds of itself as a science. This misperception, historically embedded within the disciplinary culture of US sociology, appears to guide the discipline toward an overemphasis on the production of research & the establishment of a governance structure that draws heavily on faculty from doctoral-granting departments. Accordingly, following from my analysis of the discipline's culture, I conclude that sociology is better positioned as a profession than a science. 4 Tables, 4 Figures, 53 References.

Part I: Growth and Developmental Effects AN - 21050069; 6024454 AB - Soils contaminated with explosive materials like hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-l,3,5-triazine (RDX) is a concern nation-wide on military installations and sites where explosives are manufactured, stored, or disposed. Terrestrial plants are a vital group of receptor organism, yet limited published information is available on the potential impacts of RDX exposure in terrestrial plants. This research comprised the initial phases in the development of a short-term (<12 days) screening experiment for assessing the environmental impacts of RDX exposure in terrestrial plants. Fifteen plants (dicots and monocots) were exposed to three soils amended with 0-4000 mu g g super(-1) of RDX during the short-term screening experiments. Growth responses (maximum root and shoot lengths, percent emergence) and adverse developmental effects were the assessment endpoints. Sunflower was identified as the most RDX sensitive plant and selected for evaluation during the long-term (2, 4, and 6 weeks) experiments. Two life stages of sunflower (embryos and 2-week old seedlings) were exposed to Grenada soil amended with 0-100 mu g g super(-1) of RDX. The assessment endpoints during the long-term experiments included: biomass, maximum shoot and root length, root bio-volume, maximum stem diameter, number of leaves, and adverse developmental effects. Statistically significant differences were measured in several of the growth parameters following the short and long term exposure studies, however there were no consistent patterns. The consistent indicators of detrimental impacts from RDX exposure were the adverse developmental effects observed, regardless of life stage, soil type, or exposure duration. Typically, more adverse developmental effects were observed in dicots than monocots. The efficacy of the short-term screening experiments for estimating the impacts of long-term RDX exposure was validated.

The system was a valuable tool for comparing the effective concentrations of the repellent analogs. Additionally, this method used easily controlled test conditions, allowing completion of the many test replications necessary to evaluate all of the repellent analogs over a period of several years. One compound, N ,N -diethyl-2-[3-(triflouromethyl)phenyl]acetamide, provided significantly better repellency than DEET against Ae. aegypti and slightly improved efficacy against An. stephensi . Eight of the analogs were as effective as or slightly more repellent than DEET against both species. Seven analogs were less effective than DEET and one compound, N ,N -diethyl-3-hydroxybenzamide, was as a poor repellent. Overall, two DEPA analogs and a single DEET analog provided better repellency than DEET against both mosquito species and warrant future laboratory and field evaluation.

In this present study we have investigated the pharmacokinetics of midazolam and its associated effects on electroencephalographic (EEG) activity following intramuscular (im) injection to soman-exposed guinea pigs (Crl:(HA)BR). Prior to experiments, the animals were surgically implanted with EEG leads to monitor seizure activity. For the study, animals were administered the following pretreatment/OP/treatment regimen. Pyridostigmine bromide (0.026 mg/kg, im) was given 30 min prior to soman (56 mu g/kg, 2 x LD sub(50); subcutaneously, sc), followed in one minute by atropine sulfate (2 mg/kg, im) and pralidoxime chloride (25 mg/kg, im). All animals receiving this regimen developed seizure activity. Midazolam 0.8 mg/kg, im, was administered 5 min after onset of seizure activity. Based on EEG data, animals were categorized as either seizure-terminated or seizure not-terminated at 30 min following anticonvulsant administration. Serial blood samples were collected for the plasma midazolam analysis; the assay was accomplished with a gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer. The mean time to seizure termination was 8.8 plus or minus 1.6 min. The mean time-plasma concentration data were fit to standard pharmacokinetic models. The following parameter estimates were determined from the model-fit for seizure terminated and not-terminated animals respectively: apparent volumes of distribution (Vd) were 1.4 and 1.7 l/kg; area under the time-concentration curves (AUC), 15,990 and 15,120 ng times min/ml; times to maximal plasma concentration (T sub(max)), 1.66 and 2.91 min and maximal plasma concentrations (C sub(max)) 535.1 and 436.6 ng/ml. These data indicate that im injection of midazolam is effective at terminating ongoing soman-induced seizure activity. Additionally, the relatively short T sub(max) and latency to seizure termination demonstrate the rapidity of drug absorption and action respectively.

Noninvasive bioengineering methods are used in the model to monitor the progress of wound healing and evaluate the efficacy of treatments. It is necessary to anesthetize the animals to facilitate bioengineering data collection from ventral abdominal wound sites. As anesthetic agents affect cardiac output and deep vascular and cutaneous microcirculation in many species, there was a need to identify an anesthetic regimen with minimal effects on baseline measurements. The effects of three anesthetic regimens on reflectance colorimetry, transepidermal water loss, and laser Doppler perfusion imaging were studied in unexposed control animals. The following regimens were tested on six female Yorkshire swine (weanlings, 8-11 kg): repeated, separate intramuscular (i.m.) injections of ketamine HCl and xylazine HCl (K/X, at 20 plus or minus 2 mg/kg and 2 plus or minus 0.2 mg/kg, respectively), repeated i.m. injections of a tiletamine HCl/zolazepam HCl/xylazine HCl combination (T/X, at 2.2 mg/kg, 2.2 mg/kg, and 4.4 mg/kg, respectively), and the tiletamine HCl/zolazepam HCl/xylazine HCl combination as a preanesthetic and isoflurane inhalation to maintain anesthesia (T/X/Iso; dosage of tiletamine HCl/zolazepam HCl/xylazine HCl was the same as listed above, with 2.5-3.0% isoflurane in oxygen at an initial flow rate of 2 L/min, reduced to 1.0%-1.5% at 0.8-1.0 L/min for maintenance). Each regimen was administered in three iterations within a week (every other day), with a minimum 1-week washout period between regimens. The effect of the anesthetic regimens on bioengineering assessments of ventral abdominal skin was evaluated. For reflectance colorimetry, regimens T/X and K/X had a narrower range of readings over the three testing days than T/X/Iso. Either T/X or K/X was suitable, with T/X preferred because of a lesser blanching effect. T/X or T/X/Iso were preferred for transepidermal water loss readings, because overall they depressed transepidermal water loss rates less than did K/X. T/X, T/X/Iso, and K/X all affected cutaneous blood flow, with no clear preference. Overall, T/X produced the most consistent results with the fewest anesthetic effects.

Some of these improvements include the addition or replacement of the navigation lock. Innovative design and construction techniques are being investigated to try and reduce construction costs as well as operation and maintenance costs. The Corps identified that a savings in lock construction could be achieved if the conventional concrete gravity lock walls with culverts inside them could be replaced with thin walls and longitudinal culverts located inside the chamber. This culvert design was designated the In-Chamber Longitudinal Culvert System (ILCS). An extensive research effort led to the development of the ILCS design. This paper provides a brief summary of the research results and the accompanying design guidance developed for low to medium lift ILCS locks. The guidance includes culvert location; port size, location, and spacing; port extensions; culvert-roof overhang; and wall baffles.

The choice of therapy offered at the time of initial patient presentation is often empirical, as definitive diagnosis can take weeks. Determining the activity of numerous antimicrobial agents against a wide range of Leptospira serovars may broaden empirical therapeutic options. Various antimicrobials have been shown to be active against a limited number of serovars in in vitro studies, chiefly by the use of broth macrodilution techniques. We developed a broth microdilution technique using the commercially available growth indicator alamarBlue. MICs produced by this technique were compared to MICs and minimal bactericidal concentrations produced by the traditional broth macrodilution technique. The internal validity of our methods was assessed with 11 runs over numerous days with a single isolate of Leptospira interrogans serovar Icterohaemorrhagiae. By either method, the MICs for these internal- validity runs fell within 2 dilutions of each other for more than 90% of antimicrobials. A broader application of these two techniques included 12 serovars (including seven species) of Leptospira and six antimicrobials (penicillin G, doxycycline, chloramphenicol, erythromycin, cefotaxime, and ciprofloxacin). Observed reproducibility fell within 2 dilutions for 99% of the duplicate result sets for the MIC microdilution method, compared to 89% for the MIC macrodilution method. The macrodilution method tended to have a higher MIC at which 90% of the isolates were inhibited (MIC sub(90)) than did the microdilution method, but the MIC sub(90)s of both methods were within 2 dilutions of each other for all six drugs. The macrodilution and microdilution techniques produced similar results, with microdilution allowing a faster, more streamlined method of producing MIC results.

At a fluence of ca. 40 mJ/cm super(2), the synergistic effect between silver and UV was observed at silver concentrations as low as 10 mu g/liter (P < 0.0615). At the same fluence, an MS-2 inactivation of ca. 3.5 logs (99.97%) was achieved at a silver concentration of 0.1 mg/liter, a significant improvement (P < 0.0001) over the ca. 1.8-log (98.42%) inactivation of MS-2 at ca. 40 mJ/cm super(2) in the absence of silver. Modified Chick-Watson kinetics were used to model the synergistic effect of silver and UV radiation. For an MS-2 inactivation of 4 logs (99.99%), the coefficient of dilution (n) was determined to be 0.31, which suggests that changes in fluence have a greater influence on inactivation than does a proportionate change in silver concentration.

Only two isoforms each were observed for PA and EF. Four isoforms were identified for LF. The biological activities of both lethal toxin and edema toxin were measured by using in vitro cell-based assays.

AN - 85381958; pmid-15157127 AB - Listeners with normal-hearing sensitivity recognize speech more accurately in the presence of fluctuating background sounds, such as a single competing voice, than in unmodulated noise at the same overall level. These performance differences are greatly reduced in listeners with hearing impairment, who generally receive little benefit from fluctuations in masker envelopes. If this lack of benefit is entirely due to elevated quiet thresholds and the resulting inaudibility of low-amplitude portions of signal + masker, then listeners with hearing impairment should derive increasing benefit from masker fluctuations as presentation levels increase. Listeners with normal-hearing (NH) sensitivity and listeners with hearing impairment (HI) were tested for sentence recognition at moderate and high presentation levels in competing speech-shaped noise, in competing speech by a single talker, and in competing time-reversed speech by the same talker. NH listeners showed more accurate recognition at moderate than at high presentation levels and better performance in fluctuating maskers than in unmodulated noise. For these listeners, modulated versus unmodulated performance differences tended to decrease at high presentation levels. Listeners with HI, as a group, showed performance that was more similar across maskers and presentation levels. Considered individually, only 2 out of 6 listeners with HI showed better overall performance and increasing benefit from masker fluctuations as presentation level increased. These results suggest that audibility alone does not completely account for the group differences in performance with fluctuating maskers; suprathreshold processing differences between groups also appear to play an important role. Competing speech frequently provided more effective masking than time-reversed speech containing temporal fluctuations of equal magnitude. This finding is consistent with "informational" masking resulting from competitive processing of words and phrases within the speech masker that would notoccur for time-reversed sentences.

MCAGCC is located within the central Mojave Desert, where annual precipitation levels are insufficient to produce the three parameters typical of wetlands (i.e. vegetation, soils, and hydrology). At MCAGCC, two major aquatic resource types other than wetlands regulated under the Clean Water Act (CWA) as 'Waters of the United States' (WoUS) were delineated at the planning-level scale. As part of the delineation process, new and unreported hydrology field indicators observed in the field were evaluated within the context of 48 literature citations. These hydrology indicators were used in the delineation process for identifying the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM) under Section 404 of the CWA for WoUS.

Identity of the cell receptor and membrane domains involved in Ib binding, oligomer formation, and internalization is currently unknown. In this study, Vero (toxin-sensitive) and MRC-5 (toxin-resistant) cells were incubated with Ib, after which detergent-resistant membrane microdomains (DRMs) were extracted with cold Triton X-100. Western blotting revealed that Ib oligomers localized in DRMs extracted from Vero, but not MRC-5, cells while monomeric Ib was detected in the detergent-soluble fractions of both cell types. The Ib protoxin, previously shown to bind Vero cells but not form oligomers or induce cytotoxicity, was detected only in the soluble fractions. Vero cells pretreated with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C before addition of Ib indicated that glycosylphosphatidyl inositol-anchored proteins were minimally involved in Ib binding or oligomer formation. While pretreatment of Vero cells with filipin (which sequesters cholesterol) had no effect, methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (which extracts cholesterol) reduced Ib binding and oligomer formation and delayed iota-toxin cytotoxicity. These studies showed that iota-toxin exploits DRMs for oligomer formation to intoxicate cells.

AN - 71678892; 14987934 AB - To achieve sustainable range management and avoid or minimize environmental contamination, the Army needs to know the amount of explosives deposited on ranges from different munitions and how these are degraded and transported under different geological and climatic conditions. The physical form of the deposited explosives has a bearing on this problem, yet the shapes and size distributions of the explosive particles remaining after detonations are not known. We collected residues from 8 high-order and 6 low-order non-tactical detonations of TNT-filled 155-mm rounds. We found significant variation in the amount of TNT scattered from the high-order detonations, ranging from 0.00001 to 2% of the TNT in the original shell. All low-order detonations scattered percent-level amounts of TNT. We imaged thousands of TNT particles and determined the size, mass and surface-area distributions of particles collected from one high-order and one low-order detonation. For the high-order detonation, particles smaller than 1 mm contribute most of the mass and surface area of the TNT scattered. For the low-order detonation, most of the scattered TNT mass was in the form of un-heated, centimeter-sized pieces whereas most of the surface area was again from particles smaller than 1 mm. We also observed that the large pieces of TNT disintegrate readily, giving rise to many smaller particles that can quickly dissolve. We suggest picking up the large pieces of TNT before they disintegrate to become point sources of contamination.

AN - 66895315; 15379212 AB - A short-term, time-dependent smoke exposure of rats in a nose-only chamber to burning wood and 24-h recovery time revealed inflammation of the airways with varying degrees of injury from loss of cilia, degeneration of epithelium, and squamous metaplasia to submucosal edema. These histological changes were reflected in variable expression of the secretory Muc5AC and low expression of membrane-associated Muc4 mucin genes. 20-min smoke exposure in extended recovery experiments showed marked disorder of tracheal epithelium for up to 72 h of recovery with a return to normal by 7 days. Gene expressions were elevated at 24 and 48 h of recovery. 30-min smoke exposure showed a more severe degeneration of the epithelium and a longer recovery time. Muc5AC expression decreased after 72 h of recovery, while there was upregulation of Muc4 gene from 48 through 96 h. Because Muc4 upregulation and histological results correlate and it has reportedly been associated with epithelium renewal, Muc4 gene may be a useful marker for the regeneration of tracheal epithelium.

AN - 66772043; 15187223 AB - Previous attempts to produce a vaccine for ricin toxin have been hampered by safety concerns arising from residual toxicity and the undesirable aggregation or precipitation caused by exposure of hydrophobic surfaces on the ricin A-chain (RTA) in the absence of its natural B-chain partner. We undertook a structure-based solution to this problem by reversing evolutionary selection on the 'ribosome inactivating protein' fold of RTA to arrive at a non-functional, compacted single-domain scaffold (sequence RTA1-198) for presentation of a specific protective epitope (RTA loop 95-110). An optimized protein based upon our modeling design (RTA1-33/44-198) showed greater resistance to thermal denaturation, less precipitation under physiological conditions and a reduction in toxic activity of at least three orders of magnitude compared with RTA. Most importantly, RTA1-198 or RTA1-33/44-198 protected 100% of vaccinated animals against supra-lethal challenge with aerosolized ricin. We conclude that comparative protein analysis and engineering yielded a superior vaccine by exploiting a component of the toxin that is inherently more stable than is the parent RTA molecule.

In this paper, I seek to clarify discussion about rationality in several ways. I discuss the role of assumptions in theory & the assumption of rationality in rational choice theory. I demonstrate that many critiques of rational choice theory have been misguided, since instrumental rationality -- the rationality of rational choice theory -- is applicable to a wide variety of social situations, including situations where various psychological, informational, & structural factors claimed to interfere with rational decision making are present. I also focus on three applications of rational choice theory in international relations that demonstrate ways that rational choice theorists have potentially added to confusion about the rationality assumption & created disillusionment in others about the rational choice enterprise. Finally, I point out that, since rational choice theory is not a single theory, critics' claims about the nonfalsifiability of rational choice are immaterial. An understanding of these issues facilitates movement by the international relations community away from argument over the assumption of rationality & on to more productive & integrative theory building. 1 Figure, 74 References.

Even though the latter two initiatives are progressing well, the issue of capabilities could become the Achilles Heel of the NATO Alliance unless a corrective course is made. Generally, European states show little inclination to improve their military capabilities for the betterment of the Alliance, & the European Union Rapid Reaction Force is well on its way to becoming a white elephant for European security & defense policy, as well as a Trojan horse for NATO. On the other hand, NATO's streamlining of its military structure & the establishment of a response force provide the Alliance with a veritable expeditionary capability. These reforms place NATO on the cusp of equality with the United States as a security partner, but under its current military structure, the issue of capabilities will keep it from crossing the final hurdle. A fundamental overhaul of NATO's military structure is called for. Under the aegis of collective contributions for collective defense, downsizing the Alliance to nine integrated multinational divisions, each located in a division-sized base, would permit greater interoperability & burden sharing among NATO members as well as realize tremendous cost savings. Each member would contribute military forces according to its size & relative wealth rather than maintaining a standing army for potential crises. In the end, NATO would be able to enjoy a collective defense dividend that has eluded it for centuries, while making a significant contribution to global security. 1 Table, 2 Figures.

Undermining the US status of superpower could be achieved by the introduction into the ecosystem of plants, animals, or other organisms. With time, this could weaken the economy &/or the health of the population, & in turn, destabilize the political will & shift the military balance of power. The 1999 Executive Order 13112 on invasive species was designed to coordinate & enhance activities to prevent & control such incidents. The Invasive Species Council's National Management Plan is a beginning, but it needs the following enhancements: (1) recognition of the danger of a purposeful introduction of invasive species; (2) a greater sense of urgency; (3) a comprehensive national system for detecting all types of invasive species infestations; (4) the ability for rapid response; (5) adequate funding; (6) attention to invasive pathogens that affect human health; & (7) the assistance of the Dept of Homeland Security.

The study entailed unique wintertime fieldwork along the Fort Peck reach of the Missouri River. The insights show how ice formation, presence, and breakup can influence channel stability in several important ways, especially when channels must convey substantial water flow during winter. Ice may hasten the migration of channel bends, cause transient scour and sediment deposition during winter, and induce cyclic shifts of flow thalweg through sinuous-braided subreaches. The insights are of direct significance for engineering activities along the Missouri's Fort Peck reach and other alluvial channels subject to frigid winters. They also are significant for understanding the frigid-winter habitat of aquatic life in such channels.

Conventional procedures used to assess liquefaction commonly predict the triggering of liquefaction to depths of 50 m or more. Remediation to prevent or curtail liquefaction at these depths can be very expensive. Field experience during past earthquakes indicates that liquefaction has mainly occurred at depths less than about 15, and some recent dynamic centrifuge model testing initially appeared to confirm a depth or confining-stress limitation on the occurrence of liquefaction. Such a limitation on liquefaction could greatly reduce remediation costs. In this paper an effective stress numerical modeling procedure is used to assess these centrifuge tests. The results indicate that a lack of complete saturation and densification at depth arising from the application of the high-acceleration field are largely responsible for the apparent limitation on liquefaction at depth observed in some centrifuge tests.

Ethanol was used as the cosolvent, and the main remedial mechanism was enhanced dissolution based on the phase behavior of the water-ethanol-PCE system. Based on the knowledge of the actual PCE volume introduced into the cell, it was estimated that 83 L of PCE were present at the start of the test. Over a 40-day period, 64% of the PCE was removed by flushing the cell with an alcohol solution of approximately 70% ethanol and 30% water. High removal efficiencies at the end of the test indicated that more PCE could have been removed had it been possible to continue the demonstration. The ethanol solution extracted from the cell was recycled during the test using activated carbon and air stripping treatment. Both of these treatment processes were successful in removing PCE for recycling purposes, with minimal impact on the ethanol content in the treated fluids. Results from pre- and post-flushing partitioning tracer tests overestimated the treatment performance. However, both of these tracer tests missed significant amounts of the PCE present, likely due to inaccessibility of the PCE. The tracer results suggest that some PCE was inaccessible to the ethanol solution which led to the inefficient PCE removal rates observed. The flux-averaged aqueous PCE concentrations measured in the post-flushing tracer test were reduced by a factor of 3 to 4 in the extraction wells that showed the highest PCE removal compared to those concentrations in the pre-flushing tracer test.

This was confirmed with real-time monitoring of the bed elevation and extensive bathometry measurements made in the Mississippi River, the Missouri River, and the White River in Vermont. In all cases, the sediment process was significantly different from what existing sediment equations would predict. This laboratory study examined the sensitivity of various parameters affecting sediment transport under ice. Twenty tests were conducted in CRREL's refrigerated flume using mean flow velocities in the clear-water scour range. Three surface conditions were modeled: open water, a floating cover, and a fixed cover, simulating ice frozen to the river banks and a bridge pier, with a superimposed hydrostatic head that could be created by an upstream ice jam. The ice cover was simulated using Styrofoam with both smooth and rough surfaces. Under clear-water scour, the equilibrium scour depths for the fixed and floating covers were similar, but up to 21% higher than those found for open water. The cover roughness altered the velocity distribution and caused live-bed scour even when the mean flow velocity was 0.86 times the critical velocity for bed movement. When the average velocity was 0.93 times critical velocity, the pressure flow caused live-bed scour. A combination of increased cover roughness and pressure flow resulted in the largest equilibrium scour depth.

Three sampling strategies were evaluated. Between the firing point and the target, 10-m X 10-m grids were established, and 30-increment composite soil samples were collected. In two of these grids, one near the firing point and one at the target, the grids were divided into 100 1-m X 1-m minigrids. Within each minigrid a discrete and a 10-increment composite soil sample were collected and analyzed for energetic compounds. In the target area, an alternative strategy was also evaluated using concentric halos around the target. Each halo was subdivided into increasing numbers of segments at increasing distances from the targets. Multi-increment composite samples were collected within each halo segment. Behind the firing line, nine line (linear) composites were collected at various distances from 0 to 25 m from the firing line. Results from the 100 1-m X 1-m minigrids near the firing line and the target demonstrated that the distribution of analyte concentrations in the discrete samples was non-Gaussian and the range of concentrations varied over two orders of magnitude. The distributions of data for multi-increment composite samples with various numbers of increments were simulated by averaging the concentration estimates from randomly selected discrete samples. For the firing line area, the distribution of NG computed composites exhibits increased normality as the number of increments is increased and the resulting tolerance range declined substantially. This was also true for HMX in the target area. Recommendations are made for appropriate sampling strategies to collect representative surface soil samples for antitank rocket ranges.

Methods Recruit deaths from 1977 through 2001 were identified and confirmed through redundant sources. Complete demographic, circumstantial, and medical information was sought for each case and recorded on an abstraction form. Mortality rates per 100,000 recruit-years were calculated by using recruit accession data from the Defense Manpower Data Center. Results There were 276 recruit deaths from 1977 through 2001 and age-specific recruit mortality rates were less than half of same-age U.S. civilian mortality rates. Only 28% (77 of 276) of recruit deaths were classified as traumatic (suicide, unintentional injury, and homicide), in comparison to three quarters in both the overall active duty military population and the U.S. civilian population (ages 15-34 years). The age-adjusted traumatic death rates were highest in the Army (four times higher than the Navy and Air Force, and 80% higher than the Marine Corps). The majority (60%) of traumatic deaths was due to suicide, followed by unintentional injuries (35%), and homicide (5%). The overall age-adjusted traumatic mortality rate was more than triple for men compared with women in all military services (rate RATIO=3.9; p=0.01). Conclusions There was a lower proportion of traumatic deaths in recruits compared to the overall active duty military population and same-age U.S. civilian population. This finding could be attributed to close supervision, emphasis on safety, and lack of access to alcohol and motor vehicles during recruit training.

In this report, we describe a simple screening method for discovering new antiviral compounds directed against CCHFV. Antiviral activity was determined by assaying infected SW-13 cells (human adrenal gland carcinoma) for protection from cytopathic effect (CPE). By using an in vitro neutral red uptake assay, we were able to quantitatively measure CPE induced by CCHFV. As a proof of concept, we used this method to evaluate the antiviral activity of ribavirin and a series of structural analogs (ribamidine, 6-azauridine, selenazofurin, and tiazofurin) against four geographically diverse strains of CCHFV. Ribavirin inhibited the replication of CCHFV as reported previously using plaque reduction assays. One drug, ribamidine, showed antiviral activity that was 4.5- to 8-fold less than that of ribavirin, and the other three drugs (6-azauridine, selenazofurin, and tiazofurin) did not show significant antiviral activity. There were no significant differences in drug sensitivities among the CCHFV strains. Development of this simple and reliable assay will potentially allow high-throughput screening for discovering additional antiviral drugs to combat this important public health threat.

Visual perception was evaluated in military pilots during a simulated overnight flight to explore for the possible occurrence of visual neglect. Methods: There were eight military pilots (male, 31-52 yr of age, mean 37 yr) on flight status who were recruited to perform the primary task of flying a simulated 12.5 h overnight mission after a day of continuous wakefulness and the secondary task of responding to repeated 20 min presentations of single- and double-light stimuli displayed in random sequence at 15 degree intervals across the cockpit instrument panel. In addition to the visual performance task, simulator shutdowns occurring when the tolerances of the simulator were exceeded were measured and simple reaction time on the psychomotor vigilance task was assessed. Total continuous wakefulness was 26.5 h. Results: Combined performance on the visual perception task showed response omissions increasing at 19 h of continuous wakefulness. Patterns included omissions at all stimulus locations, of primarily peripherally located stimuli, and of one of two simultaneously presented stimuli. Simulator shutdowns began at 21.5 h of continuous wakefulness. Correlation of visual task response omissions with simulator shutdowns was r = 0.95, p < 0.0001. Conclusions: Significant neglect of visual stimuli occurred in pilots beginning at 19 h of continuous wakefulness in a simulated overnight fixed wing aircraft flight, preceded simulator shutdowns, and correlated at 0.95 with simulator shutdowns.

In the present study, cellular pro- inflammatory responses following exposure to a brief high concentration of NO sub(2) (45 ppm) were assessed, using normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells as an in vitro model of inhalation injury. Generation and release of pro- inflammatory mediators such as nitric oxide (NO), IL-8, TNF- alpha , IFN- gamma and IL-1 beta were assessed at different time intervals following NO sub(2) exposure. Effects of a pre-existing inflammatory condition was tested by treating the NHBE cells with different inflammatory cytokines such as IFN- gamma , IL-8, TNF- alpha , IL-1 beta , either alone or in combination, before exposing them to NO sub(2). Immunofluorescence studies confirmed oxidant-induced formation of 3-nitrotyrosine in the NO sub(2)-exposed cells. A marked increase in the levels of nitrite (as an index of NO) and IL-8 were observed in the NO sub(2)- exposed cells, which were further enhanced in the presence of the cytokines. Effects of various NO inhibitors combined, with immunofluorescence and Western blotting data, indicated partial contribution of the nitric oxide synthases (NOSs) toward the observed increase in nitrite levels. Furthermore, a significant increase in IL-1 beta and TNF- alpha generation was observed in the NO sub(2)-exposed cells. Although NO sub(2) exposure alone did induce slight cytotoxicity (<12%), but presence of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF- alpha and IFN- gamma resulted in an increased cell death (28-36%). These results suggest a synergistic role of inflammatory mediators, particularly of NO and IL- 8, in NO sub(2)-mediated early cellular changes. Our results also demonstrate an increased sensitivity of the cytokine-treated NHBE cells toward NO sub(2), which may have significant functional implications in vivo.

The yhdJ gene was cloned, and the enzyme was overexpressed and purified. Methylation and restriction analysis showed that the DNA methyltransferase methylates the first adenine in the sequence ATGCAT. This DNA methylation was found to be regulated during the cell cycle, and the DNA adenine methyltransferase was designated M.EcoKCcrM (for "cell cycle-regulated methyltransferase"). The CcrM DNA adenine methyltransferase is required for viability in E. coli, as a strain lacking a functional genomic copy of ccrM can be isolated only in the presence of an additional copy of ccrM supplied in trans. The cells of such a knockout strain stopped growing when expression of the inducible plasmid ccrM gene was shut off. Overexpression of M.EcoKCcrM slowed bacterial growth, and the ATGCAT sites became fully methylated throughout the cell cycle; a high proportion of cells with an anomalous size distribution and DNA content was found in this population. Thus, the temporal control of this methyltransferase may contribute to accurate cell cycle control of cell division and cellular morphology. Homologs of M.EcoKCcrM are present in other bacteria belonging to the gamma subdivision of the class Proteobacteria, suggesting that methylation at ATGCAT sites may have similar functions in other members of this group.

A virtural impactor concentrator is used along with an aerodynamic-focusing-nozzle which forms, within an optical chamber, a focused aerosol jet where single aerosol particles can be interrogated on-the-fly with a pulsed 266-nm-wavelength laser. Sample rates are a few liter per minute, and are size dependent. Crossed-diode laser beams indicate when a particle is traversing the sample region and are used to trigger the UV laser to fire and the gated intensified CCD to record the fluorescence spectrum. Our breadboard fluorescence particle spectrometer measures particles in the 3-10 mu m diameter size range. Typical trigger rates are a few per second. The usable spectral range is from about 295 to 605 nm. The majority of the particles have very weak fluorescence (on average 8 percent of particles have fluorescence signals above noise). The spectra were grouped using a heirarchical cluster analysis, with parameters chosen so that spectra typically cluster into 4-12 main categories. From the set of all cluster spectra we chose 8 template spectra for reanalyzing all the data. On average, 92 percent (81-94 percent) of the spectra were similar to these templates (using the same thresholds used for the cluster analysis). The major emission bands of the most commonly occurring spectra have peaks: near 460 nm (28 percent of fluorescent particles on average), a very broad hump, and may be humic acids or humic like substances; near 317 nm (on average 24 percent of fluorescent particles); near 321 and 460 nm (a double hump, 12 percent of fluorescent particles); and near 341 nm (8 percent of fluorescent particles). Some of the fluorescence in spectra peaking in the 317-341 nm range is probably from dicyclic aromatics and heterocyclics, including the amino acid tryptophan in biological particles such as bacteria and spores.

These changes are commonly attributed to the greenhouse effect resulting from increased carbon dioxide (CO (sub 2) ) concentration. The greenhouse effect should be most pronounced in the Arctic where the largest air CO (sub 2) concentrations and winter-summer variations in the world for a clean background environment were detected [Conway et al., 1994; Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics Laboratory Data Archive, http://www.cmdl.noaa.gov/info/ftpdata.html]. Some increased seasonal variation may be a consequence of increasing summer CO (sub 2) assimilation by plants in response to higher temperature and longer growing season [Keeling et al., 1996]. Here we show that sea-ice melt ponds and open brine channels form an important spring/summer air CO (sub 2) sink that also must be included in any Arctic regional CO (sub 2) budget; both the direction and amount of CO (sub 2) transfer between air and sea during the open water season may be different from transfer during freezing and thawing, or during winter when CO (sub 2) accumulates beneath Arctic sea-ice.

AN - 71768605; 15036665 AB - Mutations found in human tumors often include transversions of GC to TA that may result from the mis-pairing of 8-oxoG with adenine during DNA replication. The human MutY (hMYH) enzyme, an adenine-specific DNA glycosylase, initiates repair at this mismatch. It has recently been demonstrated that inherited variants of hMYH may predispose individuals to multiple colorectal adenomas and carcinoma [Nat. Genet. 30 (2002) 227]. In this study, we demonstrate that two of these cancer-associated hMYH mutants, Y165C and G382D, are devoid of glycosylase activity directed towards 8-oxoG:A mispairs. These findings implicate a total loss of hMYH function associated with colorectal cancers.

AN - 85381867; pmid-15054374 AB - In light of recent terrorist events and the potential threat of smallpox as a biological agent, we present information concerning smallpox to better inform the otolaryngologist concerning this disease and its prevention.We performed a review of the smallpox and smallpox vaccination literature over the past 200 years using MEDLINE, PREMEDLINE, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Internet site, World Health Organization Internet site, and references found in previous publications not found in MEDLINE or PREMEDLINE. Our search focused on the pathogenesis, clinical presentation, course, unique manifestations in the head and neck, diagnosis, and treatment of smallpox, as well as the method of smallpox vaccination, vaccination contraindications, and complications.Smallpox is a viral disease with a high mortality rate. Its clinical course, manifestations, and methods of prevention are carefully analyzed in light of otolaryngology practice.Smallpox manifestations in the head and neck often presented as acute airway obstruction and also as long-term sequelae such as ectropion, nasal vestibular stenosis, conductive hearing loss, and blindness. Most chronic sequelae involve the head and neck. Smallpox vaccination is effective but not without potential serious risks.

AN - 85380392; pmid-15054370 AB - The objective of this study was to compare the safety, difficulty of removal, and postoperative pain profile of radiofrequency ablation versus standard electrocautery removal of tonsils.A prospective, blinded study was designed to remove 1 tonsil with each of the 2 methods. Time of operation, estimated blood loss, difficulty of operation, postoperative pain, rate of postoperative hemorrhage, and the patient's preferred technique were evaluated.The operating time was significantly longer (P < 0.007) and the patients reported significantly less pain (P < 0.001) with radiofrequency ablation. There were no differences in blood loss, difficulty of operation, or postoperative hemorrhage rates. The patients preferred the radiofrequency ablation technique (P < 0.001).Radiofrequency ablation is a viable method to remove tonsillar tissue. Operating time for this procedure will likely decrease with experience. There was significantly less pain reported with radiofrequency ablation compared with standard electrocautery.

AN - 85375248; pmid-15027052 AB - BotDB is a database designed to encapsulate the rapidly expanding amount of information about the structure and function of the botulinum (BoNT) and tetanus neurotoxins and to track a variety of basic and applied research efforts. The AceDB management system was chosen for this project because of its flexibility in manipulating semistructured data sets and for its information retrieval query languages. In addition to storing amino and nucleic acid sequences of the clostridial neurotoxin genes and proteins, BotDB provides sequence data for new classes of objects, including neurotoxin mutants, substrates and their mutants, associated nontoxic proteins, and C-fragment vaccine candidates. New data types provide information on detection assays for the neurotoxins and on structural data from X-ray crystallographic and circular dichroism spectroscopic studies. Kinetic parameters from biochemical experiments include reaction rates for substrate cleavage and block of neurotransmission. The structures and kinetic characteristics of presently known chemical inhibitors are also being archived. All of these data are associated with citations of the relevant literature for on-line annotation. Graphics viewer programs are provided to display stored images and three-dimensional representations of protein structures. BotDB is in the alpha test phase of development and will become a publicly available Web site.

AN - 85374816; pmid-15027054 AB - Over the past decade, we have demonstrated that various recombinant fragments of botulinum neurotoxin are highly immunogenic, stimulating notable levels of protective antibodies in mice, guinea pigs, and nonhuman primates. One of the fragments evaluated, the fragment C, is a potential next-generation vaccine candidate to replace the current pentavalent botulinum toxoid vaccine. Synthetic genes encoding the carboxyl-terminal regions (approximately 50 kDa) of toxin types A, B, C1, E, and F were expressed in Pichia pastoris, and manufacturing processes were developed for producing highly purified vaccines. These vaccines were shown to be safe, highly efficacious, stable, and amenable to high-level industrial production. Recombinant vaccines are now being produced in accordance with current Good Manufacturing Practices for use in future clinical trials. As our discovery-based program on vaccine development is diminishing, it is concurrently being replaced with a program focused on developing therapeutic interventions to botulism. Synthetic genes encoding the light chains of botulinum toxin have been expressed in Escherichia coli, and purified. These proteolytically active light chains are being used in high-throughput assays to screen for inhibitors of its catalytic activity. Other resources developed as part of the vaccine initiative, likewise, are finding utility in the quest to develop therapies for botulism.Copyright 2004 Movement Disorder Society JF - Movement disorders : official journal of the Movement Disorder Society AU - Smith, Leonard A AU - Jensen, Melody J AU - Montgomery, Vicki A AU - Brown, Douglas R AU - Ahmed, S Ashrat AU - Smith, Theresa J AD - Division of Toxinology and Aerobiology, United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases, Fort Detrick, Maryland 21702-5011, USA. leonard.smith@amedd.army.mil Y1 - 2004/03// PY - 2004 DA - Mar 2004 SP - S48 EP - S52 VL - 19 Suppl 8 SN - 0885-3185, 0885-3185 KW - Index Medicus KW - National Library of Medicine KW - Animals KW - Botulinum Toxins: chemistry KW - Botulinum Toxins: genetics KW - *Botulinum Toxins: immunology KW - Botulism: immunology KW - *Botulism: prevention & control KW - Dose-Response Relationship, Immunologic KW - Escherichia coli: immunology KW - Escherichia coli Proteins: immunology KW - Mice KW - Peptide Fragments: immunology KW - Pichinde virus: immunology KW - *Vaccines: therapeutic use KW - Vaccines, Synthetic UR - http://libproxy.lib.unc.edu/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/85374816?accountid=14244 L2 - http://vb3lk7eb4t.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQ%3Acomdisdome&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:journal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=Movement+disorders+%3A+official+journal+of+the+Movement+Disorder+Society&rft.atitle=Roads+from+vaccines+to+therapies.&rft.au=Smith%2C+Leonard+A%3BJensen%2C+Melody+J%3BMontgomery%2C+Vicki+A%3BBrown%2C+Douglas+R%3BAhmed%2C+S+Ashrat%3BSmith%2C+Theresa+J&rft.aulast=Smith&rft.aufirst=Leonard&rft.date=2004-03-01&rft.volume=19+Suppl+8&rft.issue=&rft.spage=S48&rft.isbn=&rft.btitle=&rft.title=Movement+disorders+%3A+official+journal+of+the+Movement+Disorder+Society&rft.issn=08853185&rft_id=info:doi/ LA - English (eng) DB - ComDisDome N1 - Date revised - 2011-12-15 N1 - Last updated - 2012-07-13 ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Responding to and managing casualties: detection, personal protection, and decontamination. AN - 71955777; 15062224 AB - Unfortunately, a mass casualty caused by chemical or biologic terrorism has become a real threat to the United States. A well-considered preparedness plan is needed to minimize tOe impact of a chemical or biologic attack on civilians and responders. This article describes some of the key elements in a preparedness plan, specifically issues regarding early detection, decontamination. and personal protection. Although chemical and biologic terrorism is often considered as a single entity, there are important distinctions in detection, decontamination, and personal protection procedures that effect preparedness planning. Therefore, any preparedness plan needs to be flexible enough to deal with both biologic and chemical terrorism. Preparedness plans also need to be thorough enough to deal with the differences in response to a variety of specific chemical or biologic agents.

AN - 71746304; 15016538 AB - Odor analyses experiments indicated that, for the concentrations and temperatures tested, odor intensity was a function of both aqueous concentration and water temperature for water containing 1-butanol, free available chlorine, geosmin, n-hexanal, 2-methylisoborneol, and trans-2, cis-6 nonadienal. At weak odorant concentrations (approximately 4 on the flavor profile rating scale) the perceived odor intensity of these six chemicals was greater when the temperature was 45 degrees C than was 25 degrees C. Both of these temperatures are commonly encountered by consumers when they use tap water. Odor response to water containing isobutanal was affected by concentration but not water temperature. Experiments also revealed that reduction in aqueous concentration did not consistently reduce odor intensity; for some aqueous concentrations and chemicals an increase in odor intensity occurred at lower concentrations.

AN - 71727441; 15023422 AB - Prior to the introduction of azoles, no real need for antifungal susceptibility testing (AFST) existed, as amphotericin B was the only agent available to treat systemic candidiasis. Introduction of fluconazole and itraconazole provided alternate, less toxic antifungal therapies. Intrinsic resistance of Candida krusei, decreased susceptibility of Candida glabrata, and development of resistance by Candida albicans (in mucosal disease in AIDS) to azoles led to development of our current AFST methodologies. The goal of AFST, like that of antibacterial susceptibility testing, is to predict clinical response, or at least to forecast failure. Although the ability of AFST to predict clinical outcome (clinical correlation) is still being fully elucidated, current methodologies do appear to reliably predict clinical resistance to azoles. Ready access to AFST is currently limited, affecting its timely use, but even with this lack of timeliness, AFST can still play an important role in patient care. Important potential roles include: 1) use in the development of local antibiograms to aid empiric selection of antifungals; 2) testing of isolates from candidemia or deep infection to aid in selection of long-term therapies; and, 3) the testing of isolates from recurrent mucosal disease to aid in selection of alternative regimens.

These differences were related directly to the geologic structure of each theater of operations. There has been a long-standing link between the structure of the terrain and the flow and tempo of military operations. It is sometimes difficult to predict the myriad of environmental factors that may influence a battle, campaign, or war; however, there is an immutable connection between the geologic template and military operations. It is clear that geology has a continuous, powerful, and profound effect on the nature and flow of combat. This paper examines the nexus between the geologic structure of each Theater of the American Civil War and its influence on the scope of military operations. The results of this analysis indicate that campaigns in the Eastern Theater were confined to shorter distances, focused on terrain objectives and achieved limited results because maneuver was shaped by the structure of a highly compartmentalized coastal plain and piedmont. In contrast, campaigns in the west covered vast distances by comparison, were more decisive, and focused on rivers and communications hubs because of its unique geologic structure.

The publications included geologic as well as topographic maps. In the late 1850's, the knowledge of science carried to the field of battle by the university students included geology. The applicability of student geologic/topographic knowledge was undoubtedly limited by rank. In 1860 students of the University of Mississippi formed the 11th Mississippi Infantry, also known as the "University Grays". The unit took a lead in Picketts Charge (Battle of Gettysburg) and all of the members were casualties, including many fatally wounded. A four-member faculty at the university taught the Grays. At the time of the Civil War, the state geological survey office in Mississippi was at the university and the Chief Geologist of the survey was a university faculty member. At the time of the university closing due to the war, Chief Geologist Dr. Eugene W. Hilgard was that faculty member. Besides teaching, one of Dr. Hilgard's accomplishments was preventing the destruction of the university when Federal troops, arrived with orders to burn the campus. Also during the war Dr. Hilgard designed a system of floodlights to be used in Vicksburg, Mississippi. The lights were to illuminate Federal Navy vessels attempting to run the gun batteries of Vicksburg. The career of Dr. Hilgard evolved into the field of soil science. His research and teaching continued at the University of California, Berkeley, and he is regarded today at the Father of Soil Science. He recognized the significance of soil profiles and defined the horizon classification system (A, B, and C) used today. A noted Federal Army geologist participating in the Vicksburg Campaign was John Wesley Powell. With the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861, Powell enlisted in the 20th Illinois volunteers. As the Captain of battery F (2nd Illinois artillery) he lost his right arm in the battle of Shiloh. He returned to service and fought battles of Champion Hill, Black River Bridge, and the Siege of Vicksburg. He excavated fossils from the loess walls of the Federal trenches he occupied during the siege of Vicksburg. His postwar mark on history is for leading the first expedition down the Colorado River (1869) of the Grand Canyon.

The loess has eroded into deep, steep sloped ravines. As a result, the City sits on prominent hills and intervening deep valleys. The properties of the loess greatly influenced the conduct of MG U. S. Grant's 1863 siege. Union forces invested Vicksburg on 19 May 1863, and saw the dendritic loessal drainage pattern formed a concentric ridge system around the city. Using this topography to advantage, the Confederates had fortified a prominent ridge that circled the City from the Mississippi River north of town to the River on the south. Federal reconnaissance showed a smaller, less continuous ridge outside the Confederate ridge, which they fortified. Thus, the loessal topography brought the armies into proximity, but did not permit close combat since the intervening terrain was impassable. Only six avenues of approach existed between the two ridges, all drainage divides with roads located atop them. The Confederates had erected their strongest fortifications at these loessal avenues where the bloodiest fighting of the siege took place. Undisturbed loess has a weakly cemented structure of calcium carbonate and some particles are clay-coated, giving it cohesion. The material is easy to dig, and vertical cuts stand almost indefinitely. This property facilitated the excavation of thirteen siege approaches by the Union toward the Confederate lines, the several Confederate countermines, miles of infantry trenches, and the construction of artificial caves for the shelter of soldiers and the civilians trapped in the city. Little groundwater exists in the impermeable loess and Vicksburg had long relied on cisterns for water. Union soldiers noted that streams all flowed through the enemy lines and quickly polluted them with dead animals, forcing southern troops to rely on the cisterns, since parties obtaining water at the River were subject to Union fire. The cisterns soon went dry, causing a water shortage among the Confederates. Loessal Geology, exposure, lack of food and water all contributed to the surrender of the City of Vicksburg on 4 July 1863.

Polk Lake Spring is located about 244 meters (800 feet) downstream, and a large boil, estimated to be 424,753 liters per second (15,000 cfs), created by water rising from a hole in the river bed, is located in the Apalachicola River about 549 meters (1,800 feet) downstream. This research was initiated by the Mobile District US Army Corps of Engineers to determine if water from the spring and/or boil is leakage from the reservoir, groundwater, or both. EMC, Inc. performed a multi-beam hydrographic survey of the lake bottom topography, identifying five potential leakage sites. The most distant hole identified by the lake bed survey was approximately 434 meters (1,425 feet) upstream from the dam. A dye tracer investigation was conducted to determine if any of these sites was contributing to the discharge at the spring and/or boil located downstream from the dam. After a karst hydrogeologic inventory was conducted, activated charcoal dye receptors were placed at twelve locations, and ISCO automatic water samplers at three locations. Three fluorescent dyes were used for the tracer tests. The investigation indicates that lake water sinking into holes in the lake bed is flowing through old solution conduits in the limestone bedrock that existed previous to dam construction. All the leakage confirmed by dye tracing is resurging at the boil located in the river downstream from the dam. However, most of the leakage first resurges at Polk Lake Spring and then sinks at Polk Lake Sink to finally resurge at the boil. Jim Woodruff Dam was built upon the lower Tampa Limestone, a semi-confining unit for the Upper Floridan Aquifer. The geologic dip in the vicinity is downstream perpendicular to the dam. The Suwannee Limestone, the uppermost geologic unit of the Upper Floridan Aquifer, outcrops under Lake Seminole but dips below the Tampa semi-confining unit in the vicinity of the dam. Additional leakage may be sinking through reactivated sinkholes in the lake where the Tampa semi-confining layer is thin. This leakage may then flow through the Suwannee Limestone (Upper Floridan Aquifer) down dip to resurge at the boil located about 549 meters (1,800 feet) downstream from the dam, where the Tampa is thin due to the downcutting of the Apalachicola River Valley.

S. Grant's Vicksburg Campaign began 31 Mar 1863 as his XIII Corps left Millikin's Bend, LA, for New Carthage, LA. At New Carthage, Grant hoped to cross the River onto Mississippi high ground and operate against Vicksburg. Some accounts intimate Grant's force moved directly south. Actually, the ancestral meander and natural levee geology of the Mississippi Alluvial Plain dictated a circuitous route and prevented interdiction by Confederates further west. Since the last glaciation, the River has meandered across its flood plain, abandoning numerous channels. Many channels formed Bayous, the principal drainages of the area. When these channels were active, sedimentation during floods built natural levees up to ten feet above the surrounding area. In the 19th century, the only roads were along the natural levees since they were last to be flooded. Beyond the natural levees lay backswamp deposits-low areas that take months to drain after floods. Federal forces took the Walnut Bayou natural levee road, and after a skirmish at Richmond, LA, proceeded south on the natural levee road west of Roundaway Bayou. By 3 Apr, they were near New Carthage, but finding it flooded, moved to Ione's Plantation, where about 20 acres of dry ground was located. This was fine for most of the XIII Corps, but not enough for most of the Army, soon to follow. Here, pursuit of Confederate snipers revealed that the backswamp to the west was completely flooded, protecting the Federal troops from attack. Reconnaissance revealed that a road on the west side of Bayou Vidal extended almost to a road on the west side of Lake St. Joseph. Both roads were on natural levees and eventually led to an open, flat, dry area near Hard Times Landing, LA, on the River. On 16 Apr, several Union ships ran past the Vicksburg batteries and joined Grant's army. By 27 Apr 1863, two-thirds of Grant's army was near Hard Times. The Geology of the Alluvial Plain had forced, but permitted, the Army to march almost 60 miles to advance 25 miles downriver. Grant now had soldiers south of Vicksburg and boats to transport them across the Mississippi. Grant had only to strike!

The primary objectives of the campaign were the capture of Shreveport, LA, seize major stockpiles of cotton in the area, and planting the Union flag in Texas. However, like many other Civil War campaigns, geology played a pivotal role in deciding the outcome. Union army and naval commanders overlooked several unique geologic and hydrologic factors influencing the Red River system. These unique properties included the great Red River Raft (a massive log jam that impeded navigation between Alexandria and Shreveport, LA), a series of rapids at Alexandria, LA, and the flashy nature and high sediment load of the river. The great Red River Raft in place for at least a millennium altered the flow regime of the River from a single channel to a series of anastomosing channels that created "strategic shooting lanes" for the Confederate defenders. The initial largely unsuccessful attempts at removing the raft were between 1833-1838, so knowledge of the raft existed prior to the war. After removal efforts ended in 1838, the raft reformed quickly and was in place again by the time the Red River Campaign began. At the tactical level, the raft severely restricted the ability of the Union's naval forces to maneuver and advance, thereby relegating the land forces to a largely defensive role. The rapids at Alexandria, LA, served as another navigational restriction that almost cost the Union navy it's entire Red River fleet after it was trapped above the them during a sudden drop in the river level. The fleet was saved by one of the most imaginative engineering feats of military history; a "wing dam" proposed by Captain Joseph Bailey. These two dams constructed at the lower and upper rapids, raised the level of the Red River approximately 2.1 meters (seven feet) and provided sufficient draft that allowed most of the Union fleet to escape. Unable to achieve any of its objectives, the Campaign was considered a failure by the Lincoln administration and his military commanders. General William T. Sherman best described the failure of the Red River Campaign as "one damn blunder from beginning to end".

The loess, an eolian silt deposit, parallels the east bank of the Mississippi River where it is thickest, thinning rapidly eastward. The loess surface once undulated gently, but over geologic time eroded into deep, steep-sloped ravines. In the 19th century, roads in the loess followed the ridges, as other terrain was impassable. The Union army marched until midnight when it encountered fire from Confederate pickets. After a short firefight, both forces waited for daylight. At dawn, the Federals deployed 23,500 men against 7,500 Confederates from Grand Gulf, MS. The Confederates fought stubbornly, using the complicated loess terrain. They fell back slowly and withdrew through Port Gibson about 6:00 PM. Grant's forces pursued, hoping to seize the bridge over Big Black River. They found it burning, but put out the blaze and repaired the bridge. With the Big Black Bridge in Federal hands, the way to Vicksburg was open! Or was it? Grant sent patrols both north across the river and northeast along the south side of the river. The patrol sent north rode to within less than 10 miles from Vicksburg, and reported the terrain as the same steep sided ridges and hollows as around Port Gibson. The other patrol found open, rolling country where artillery could be effective. Also, they reported that the Big Black was only crossable in a few locations between Port Gibson and the Southern Railroad of Mississippi, miles to the northeast. Grant knew his options: A thrust north to Vicksburg could result in another Battle of Port Gibson at every loessal ridge top. A swing into the open country east of the Big Black River might allow his Army to cut the Southern Railroad of Mississippi that was hauling vital supplies into Vicksburg. Meanwhile, his Army would be protected by the unfordable Big Black River on its left flank. Grant knew the Confederates would come out to fight for the railroad, but the battle would likely be on open ground. One of MG Grant's most momentous military decisions had just been decided by the Geology of Mississippi Loess.

The breach isolated the community of Hatteras Village by washing out a 500 m section of NC State Hwy 12. To rapidly assess breach geomorphology, document short-term morphological evolution, and to collect critical data in support of coastal modeling efforts, a series of high-density topographic and bathymetric surveys was performed. The unique survey strategy made use of real-time kinematic GPS and ultra shallow-water singlebeam and multibeam sonar technologies. Approximately 1.5 million data points were collected over two surveys. These high-resolution topographic and bathymetric data were seamlessly merged in the surfzone with customized spatial interpolation algorithms to create detailed 3D digital elevation models (DEM's). Through spatial surface analysis, cutting planes and 3D visualization the DEM's are providing a comprehensive insight into the coastal morphology and short-term evolution of what some have dubbed Isabel's Inlet. Surface analyses from the first survey revealed three separate openings to the ocean with a main northern channel that was approximately 100 m wide with depths averaging 4.5 to 6 m. A well-defined ebb-shoal complex also formed within a week of the breach, and extended up to 365 m offshore from the former location of NC 12 within three weeks. The main channel migrated 12 m toward the southwest during the course of a two-week period, eroding approximately 12,000 m (super 3) of land while maintaining the average channel depths. Data from the southern-most channel indicate an average scour of approximately 1.5 m around the central portion of the channel that contained dense Hwy 12 debris and exposed bridge pilings constructed to span a breach that occurred in 1933. Results from 3D DEM analysis indicate rapid morphology change with extensive datum-derived shoreline adjustment as the breach attempted to reach a state of equilibrium.

The shaft that was characterized is located in the abandoned 540 acre Norton limestone mine in Fairlawn, Ohio. Traditional hardware and data acquisition techniques were modified to accommodate the unique hazards and requirements associated with mine shaft environments. Mine analysis is commonly performed using drilling or other destructive methods that only sample a small portion of the shaft. Georadar proved to be a cost effective, non-destructive method to analyze large portions of the shaft. Blasting of the shaft created a rough interface later covered by a variable thickness concrete liner. The thickness of the concrete liner and rock interface were effectively measured and imaged. Reinforcing bar, fractures, and voids were also detected and confirmed using independent methods.

These data were acquired to test the applicability of each method for near-surface geology and subsidence problems, and to identify locations in the study area having a high risk for future failure. Using P-wave data we imaged the top of the saturated overburden, and using S-wave data we located vertical offsets and horizontal disruptions in the bedrock that resulted from subsidence processes. However, seismic data did not provide useful information about the road fill or roadway. This was due to surface wave interference, a lack of data resolution and insufficient media impedance contrasts. Although the penetration depth of surface radar was limited by road fill signal attenuation, 3D volumes of these data enabled high resolution imaging of rebar disruptions, fracture zones, and slump features within the roadway. The spacing of available boreholes and surface refracted-wave interference limited the effectiveness of the cross-hole radar in the near-surface road fill. However, using velocity tomograms and amplitude information, zones of increased secondary porosity were mapped in the overburden and bedrock that resulted from subsidence. Through coincident analyses of these data sets, we identified many locations where bedrock, overburden, road fill materials and the roadway structure had been disrupted by mine-related subsidence processes. Subsequent to classifying locations as high risk for future failure, our geophysical interpretations were confirmed through exploratory drilling and probing.

The following summer, diamictons in portions of thirteen counties in Wisconsin and interpreted as subaerial sediment-flow deposits also were analyzed following the same protocol to determine if they had similar properties to those at the Matanuska. The Wisconsin diamictons are much coarser (72% sand, 18% silt and 10% clay, s=15 %, 11% and 9%, respectively) than those that occur at the Matanuska Glacier (dominated by silt) and exhibit much weaker flow signatures than those at the Matanuska Glacier. Also, the fabric strengths of Wisconsin diamictons are similar to those at the Matanuska (S1 values at each location fall in the range of 0.50 to 0.70). The composition of the measured fabric pebbles in the Wisconsin diamictons averaged 43% sedimentary, 29% metamorphic, and 28% igneous rock types, and their shapes were dominated by discs followed by rods, blades then spheres (42%, 24%, 23%, 11%, respectively). A combination of necessary bed conditions for glaciohydraulic supercooling (Larson et al., in press) coupled with textural and fabric analyses suggests that locally similar conditions conductive to basal freeze-on and debris release as sediment flows may have existed along the margin of the Laurentide Ice Sheet. Ice flowing through the Lake Michigan and Lake Superior basins during the last glacial maximum could have incorporated debris into its bed as basal meltwater supercooled and froze along its base. Similar processes have been observed at the Matanuska Glacier and other active ice margins throughout the world. Glaciohydraulic supercooling has been observed at the Matanuska Glacier as well as other glaciers and it has been suggested (Lawson et al., 1998) that the process produces thick sections of debris-laden basal ice which upon melting results in sediment flows. The abundance of sediment-flow deposits in Wisconsin suggests that glaciohyraulic supercooling and basal freeze-on may also have existed locally along the margin of the Laurentide Ice Sheet.

FP-XRF was used to determine metals in post-blast ordnance residue that was deposited on snow, which provided large collection surfaces that were free of soil particles. The ordnance items included M67 hand grenades, 40-mm grenades, 60-mm and 81-mm mortar projectiles, 105-mm howitzer projectiles, claymore mines, and C4 demo blocks with M6 blasting caps. For most of these items, the post-blast residue contained lead, iron, copper, and zinc. FP-XRF also was used to determine these elements in soils from training ranges where these ordnance items were used. When present above the FP-XRF limits of detection, the FP-XRF determinations of lead, zinc, and copper were not found to be significantly different from determinations by laboratory analyses.

Due to increased vessel traffic, tighter under-keel clearance requirements and faster turn-around of hydrographic surveys, the USACE has the added pressure of providing value-added services to its customers. To provide value-added services, the Galveston District has implemented an integrated solution that combines a desktop marine spatial information management tool with web-mapping technology. The desktop software, CARIS BEAMS, provides tools such as Notice to Mariner production, bathymetric data storage and management, survey scheduling, channel condition reports, volumetric calculations, bathymetric contouring and data visualization. This article describes the technology behind the applications and the benefits to the pilot community. Before explaining the features and benefits of the technology adopted by the Galveston District.

Traps evaluated included a CDC style light trap (CDC LT) with dry ice, the American Biophysics Corporation (ABC) standard light trap (ABC LT) with dry ice and octenol, the ABC counterflow geometry (CFG) trap with dry ice and octenol, the ABC mosquito magnet (MM) trap with octenol, and the Nicosia and Reinhardt Company Mosquito Attractor Device (N & R trap). Mosquito numbers captured in landing-biting collections were 5.2, 7.0, 7.3, 31.1, and 168.8 times greater than those collected in the ABC LT, MM, CDC LT, CFG, and N & R traps, respectively, for Anopheles minimus Theobald, the predominant malaria vector in the region. Similar results were obtained for the secondary malaria vectors Anopheles maculatus Theobald and Anopheles sawadwongporni Rattanarithikul & Green. Only Anopheles kochi Doenitz was collected in significantly greater numbers in the CDC LT, ABC LT, and MM traps compared with L/B collections. Although none of the traps were as effective as L/B collections, the ABC LT, MM, and CDC LT were the best alternatives to human bait for the collection of anopheline malaria vectors in Thailand.

Studies were conducted in late summer, 1998, when macrophyte biomass levels exceeded 200 g m super(-2), and in early summer, 2000, when biomass was greatly reduced (<20 g m super(-2)) in both plant beds. The critical shear stress ( tau sub(c)) of sediments, measured experimentally in the laboratory, was low (1.4 dynes cm super(-2)) indicating potential for resuspension in the absence of macrophytes. During 1998, turbidity was low at the M. sibiricum and Chara station, rarely increasing when calculated bottom tau (calculated from wave theory assuming no biomass obstruction) exceeded tau subcsub, indicating that both beds reduced sediment resuspension at high biomass levels. In situ tau (estimated tau ), measured via gypsum sphere dissolution, did not exceed tau sub(c) above the sediment interface in either bed during 1998. In contrast, sediment resuspension occurred in both beds during similar high winds in 2000. However, estimated tau was lower than calculated bottom tau , suggesting that at low biomass, macrophytes were having some impact on tau .

AN - 17980893; 5927513 AB - We examined sediment resuspension and light attenuation in relation to the potential for macrophytes to improve water quality conditions in Peoria Lake, Illinois (U.S.A.). The lake exhibited high total suspended solids (TSS) loading and retention of predominantly fine-grained particles in 2000. Large fetches along prevailing wind rose, coupled with shallow morphometry and sediment particles composed of >90% silt and clay resulted in frequent periods of sediment resuspension. As calculated (wave theory) shear stress increased above the critical shear stress (measured experimentally), turbidity increased substantially at a resuspension monitoring station. Resuspension model explorations suggested that establishment of submersed aquatic macrophytes could substantially reduce sediment resuspension in Peoria Lake. However, K sub(d) is currently very high, while Secchi transparency low, at in-lake stations. Thus, in order to establish a persistent macrophyte population in the lake to control resuspension, the underwater light regime will have to improve quite dramatically.

Amongst other invaders, two grasses Lolium multiflorum and Bromus hordeaceus, commonly dominate portions of the grassland with potential for N. pulchra restoration. We hypothesized that competitor species differences and small-scale gaps (150 cm super(2)) could be important determinants of N. pulchra survival and performance on these sites. Lolium multiflorum and B. hordeaceus were planted in 20 cm diameter circular plots at a constant rate of 1 seed per cm super(2) surrounding newly transplanted N. pulchra plants. Nassella pulchra showed no significant effect of the species of competitor or from the distribution of the competitors. Both interspersion of patches of bare ground and separation of competitors into patches did not increase N. pulchra pre-dawn water potential, basal area change, number of seeds produced, or average weight of seeds. The presence of L. multiflorum was associated with a decrease in N. pulchra survival compared with plots with only B. hordeaceus. Plants with increases in basal area of less than 0.75 cm super(2) during the growing season had 74% mortality compared with no mortality in plants with more growth. However, initial N. pulchra plant size was not a good predictor of mortality. Limiting competition from annuals may increase survival of N. pulchra plantings, but 60% of the plants survived for at least 1 year, despite being transplanted into soil containing substantial annual grass seed.

Nonparametric approaches in the form of stand-alone artificial neural networks and semiparametric (hybrid) approaches that combine neural networks with prior process knowledge are explored and compared with existing parametric approaches based on the two-process model of sleep regulation. Within the context of a military application, we explore two notional semiparametric approaches for real-time prediction of cognitive performance on the basis of individualized on-line measurements of physiologic variables. Initial analysis indicates that these alternative modeling approaches may address key technological gaps and advance fatigue and performance modeling. Most notably, these approaches seem amenable to predicting individual performance and quantitatively assessing the reliability of model predictions through estimation of statistical error bounds, which have eluded researchers for the last two decades.

For the responsible agencies, applications of the basic biomedical and applied human factors science provide the best available solutions to help individuals perform more effectively and with increased safety. Key products of this research are biomathematical models that predict periods of impaired performance, with applications in planning tools, real time monitoring, and intervention decision aids. Since it is difficult to quantify the number of judgment errors or accidents averted, metrics of success for fatigue management systems must be largely based on the accuracy of performance predictions derived from laboratory-based research studies and the extent to which such results can be generalized to the field environment. Performance metrics must, at a minimum, be correlated with occupational task performance to demonstrate relevance to real-world applications. This paper outlines broad goals for human effectiveness research related to fatigue, alertness, and performance. To advance from the present state of knowledge to useful predictive models requires a well-coordinated commitment from federal agencies. Users should be made aware that current models and tests are not likely to encompass all of the aspects of human performance that are relevant to field environments and occupations.

This in vitro assay measures the functional ability of antisera, containing antibodies to anthrax lethal toxin, to specifically protect J774A.1 cells against Bacillus anthracis lethal toxin cytotoxicity. This colormetric assay is based upon the reduction of MTT by living cells. Human and rabbit antisera produced against anthrax vaccine absorbed (AVA) were used to validate the assay. Results showed a high level of repeatability and reproducibility, particularly for a bio-assay. Inter-assay variability in absorbance values was the most prominent negative finding however, an acceptable level was demonstrated with a ratio [neutralization ratio (NR)] of the test serum 50% effective dose (ED50) to the reference standard ED50. Accuracy was maintained, even in samples with minimal neutralizing capacity, and linearity was noted when sample dilutions resulted in accurate prediction of the Ymaxand Ymin. Specificity tests demonstrated that normal sera did not have an observable effect on the ability of the reference standard to neutralize toxin. The assay remained stable against time, temperature, and freeze/thaw effects on the reference standards, but not on the toxin. The assay also remained stable against media and solution storage effects. Cell passage number and cell plating density were two critical parameters identified during the robustness studies that may be responsible for inter-assay variability in absorbance values. The work was performed in accordance with the FDA's Bioanalytical Method Validation Guidance for Industry and the FDA's Good Laboratory Practice for Nonclinical Laboratory Studies (21 CFR Part 58).

Since the 1970s, more than 6,000 ha of native plants, including spikerush (Eleocharis cellulosa) and beakrush (Rhynchospora spp.) and open water habitat have been displaced by torpedograss in areas of the marsh where inundation depths often are less than 50 cm. The ability of torpedograss to disperse and become established at different water depths was evaluated in a series of experimental pond studies. These studies revealed that fragments remain buoyant for extended periods and so facilitate the dispersal of torpedograss within the lake. If fragments become anchored to sediment that is either exposed or in shallow water, they can readily root and establish mature plants. Once established, torpedograss can thrive in depths of 75 cm or less and can survive prolonged exposure to flooding depths greater than 1 m. In this manner, low water periods can contribute to the dispersal and colonization pattern of torpedograss in the lake. When coupled with lake elevation data, these findings suggest that low water levels or drawdowns would increase the marsh area susceptible to torpedograss invasion.

Concentrations of total iron in the tailwater indicated a first order removal process during a low flow release (0.6 m super(3) times sec super(-1)), yet negligible loss was observed during a period of increased discharge (2.8 m super(3) times sec super(-1)). Dissolved and ferrous iron concentrations in the tailwater were highly variable during both release regimes and did not follow responses based on theoretical predictions. Ferrous iron concentrations in unfiltered samples were consistently greater than concentrations observed in samples filtered separately through 0.4, 0.2, and 0.1 mu m filters. Total iron removal in laboratory studies followed first order kinetics, but was twice that rate (0.077 mg times L super(-1) times hr super(-1)) observed during low flow discharge in the tailwater (0.036 mg times L super(-1) times hr super(-1)). Dissolved and ferrous iron losses in laboratory studies were rapid ( similar to 75% in the first 15 minutes and 95% within 1 hour), followed theoretical predictions, and were much faster than observations in the tailwater ( similar to 30% within the first hour). The presence of particulate forms of ferrous iron in the field and differences in removal rates observed in field and laboratory studies indicate a need for improved field assessment techniques and consideration of complexation reactions when assessing the dynamics of iron in reservoir releases and downstream impacts as a result of operation regimes.

AN - 85381350; pmid-15058891 AB - The present study examined performance during 3 hr. of simulated sentry duty with and without the intermittent administration of low-level sensory stimuli (odor or vibration). For odor and control conditions, target-detection latency increased steadily over the course of the 3-hr. session. Administration of a tactile stimulus reduced the increase in detection latency compared to that found in odor and control conditions. For all conditions, there were no significant differences in target-detection frequency, shot accuracy, or friend-foe discrimination. Across all conditions, restlessness (motor activity) increased significantly the first hour and remained elevated for the rest of the session. Subjective measures of workload (NASA-TLX) indicated that the 3-hr. task rated high on physical demand, mental demand, frustration, and overall workload. These findings suggest that the intermittent delivery of a clearly detectable tactile stimulus can reduce reaction-time decrements that occur as time on task increases.

AN - 85372337; pmid-14990911 AB - We sought to present the epidemiology associated with 3599 midfacial and 1141 orbital blowout fractures.We conducted a multicenter, 20-year retrospective analysis of hospitalization data on U.S. Army active duty soldiers.Men composed 96% of the patients, with men aged 20 to 29 years the most affected. Of midfacial and blowout fractures, 54.8% and 70.2% occurred with concomitant injury, with 36.2% and 50.9% sustaining other facial fractures, respectively. Three hundred forty orbital blowout fractures (29.8%) had an associated eye injury. Common mechanisms included fighting and motor vehicle accidents.Young men comprised the most susceptible population, and assault was the predominant mechanism. A high incidence of concomitant injury in midfacial and orbital blowout fractures, particularly ocular and intracranial injury, emphasizes the importance of a thorough physical examination.We report the results from one of the largest series of midfacial and orbital floor blowout fractures from a population that crosses urban, rural, and foreign boundaries.

AN - 80149173; 14960048 AB - Military aviator helmet communications systems are designed to enhance speech intelligibility (SI) in background noise and reduce exposure to harmful levels of noise. Some aviators, over the course of their aviation career, develop noise-induced hearing loss that may affect their ability to perform required tasks. New technology can improve SI in noise for aviators with normal hearing as well as those with hearing loss. SI in noise scores were obtained from 40 rotary-wing aviators (20 with normal hearing and 20 with hearing-loss waivers). There were three communications systems evaluated: a standard SPH-4B, an SPH-4B aviator helmet modified with communications earplug (CEP), and an SPH-4B modified with active noise reduction (ANR). Subjects' SI was better in noise with newer technologies than with the standard issue aviator helmet. A significant number of aviators on waivers for hearing loss performed within the range of their normal hearing counterparts when wearing the newer technology. The rank order of perceived speech clarity was 1) CEP, 2) ANR, and 3) unmodified SPH-4B. To insure optimum SI in noise for rotary-wing aviators, consideration should be given to retrofitting existing aviator helmets with new technology, and incorporating such advances in communication systems of the future. Review of standards for determining fitness to fly is needed.

AN - 80138089; 14766253 AB - To evaluate the expression of Cox-2 protein by immunohistochemistry in cervical dysplasias, and to determine any relationship to clinical factors such as degree or recurrence of dysplasia. Immunohistochemical expression of p27 and Cox-2 was initially examined in 62 cervical LEEP specimens, which spanned the histologic spectrum from benign to severe dysplasia. Histology and cytology from colposcopic follow-up exams were reviewed for 1 year after LEEP procedure. Primary outcome variable was recurrent dysplasia, either cytologic or histologic. Statistical analysis utilizing chi-square test for trend and Fisher's Exact tests were performed to determine relative risk of recurrent dysplasia. A total of 62 LEEP specimens were examined by immunohistochemistry (IHC). This included 18 mild, 19 moderate, and 25 severely dysplastic LEEP specimens. The percentage of tumor cells in each specimen that stained for p27 protein or Cox-2 enzyme was documented. A specimen was considered positive for p27 or Cox-2 if 50% or more of the cells in a specimen were stained: 94% of mild, 89% of moderate, and 44% of severe dysplasias stained positive for p27; 50% of mild, 42% of moderate, and 68% of severe dysplasia specimens stained positive for Cox-2. The average intensity of Cox-2 staining increased with severity of dysplasia-1.6 for mild, 1.8 for moderate, and 2.1 for severe dysplasia. There was a significant increase in both Cox-2 and p27 staining when severely dysplastic specimens were compared to mild and moderate dysplasia (P < 0.001). Of the 35 specimens that stained positive for Cox-2 protein, 59% of these specimens had positive Cox-2 staining that extended to the margins of the LEEP resection specimen. The average length of Cox-2 protein staining beyond the histologic dysplasia was 1.64 mm. Positive margin status for Cox-2 was a significant independent risk factor for persistent and recurrent dysplasia, RR 1.68 95% CI (1.07 < RR < 2.65), P < 0.027. Cox-2 and p27 protein expression could be involved in squamous cervical cancer carcinogenesis. Cox-2 staining is often found outside the dysplastic lesion and this factor is associated with an increased risk of persistent and recurrent dysplasia following LEEP procedure. Should the histologic margin of LEEP resection approach 2.0 mm, follow-up algorithms for these patients should include intensive surveillance to ensure adequate treatment of disease.

AN - 80137695; 14760025 AB - This study evaluated the influence of a multiple injury control intervention on injury and physical fitness outcomes among soldiers attending United States Army Ordnance School Advanced Individual Training. The study design was quasiexperimental involving a historical control group (n = 2559) that was compared to a multiple intervention group (n = 1283). Interventions in the multiple intervention group included modified physical training, injury education, and a unit based injury surveillance system (UBISS). The management responsible for training independently formed an Injury Control Advisory Committee that examined surveillance reports from the UBISS and recommended changes to training. On arrival at school, individual soldiers completed a demographics and lifestyle questionnaire and took an army physical fitness test (APFT: push-ups, sit-ups, and two mile run). Injuries among soldiers were tracked by a clinic based injury surveillance system that was separate from the UBISS. Soldiers completed a final APFT eight weeks after arrival at school. Cox regression (survival analysis) was used to examine differences in time to the first injury while controlling for group differences in demographics, lifestyle characteristics, and physical fitness. The adjusted relative risk of a time loss injury was 1.5 (95% confidence interval 1.2 to 1.8) times higher in the historical control men and 1.8 (95% confidence interval 1.1 to 2.8) times higher in the historical control women compared with the multiple intervention men and women, respectively. After correcting for the lower initial fitness of the multiple intervention group, there were no significant differences between the multiple intervention and historical control groups in terms of improvements in push-ups, sit-ups, or two mile run performance. This multiple intervention program contributed to a reduction in injuries while improvements in physical fitness were similar to a traditional physical training program previously used at the school.

AN - 80090217; 14513285 AB - Acute adverse reactions to rituximab treatment have been previously described in association with initiation of therapy. We describe a novel delayed proinflammatory syndrome which occurred at, or near, the completion of a 4-week dose-intense course with rituximab in a 58-year-old man with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, and which mimicked acute rheumatoid arthritis affecting the hands and the knees. This syndrome was associated with an increase in acute phase reactants, and the clinical symptoms were temporally reproducible, although decreased in severity, with subsequent rituximab therapy, and each time responded to prednisone. This is the first report on an acute rheumatoid-like flare occurring in association with rituximab therapy. This phenomenon is all the more intriguing in that rituximab has been used to treat refractory rheumatoid arthritis. Potential etiologic mechanisms and management of this newly described phenomenon are discussed.

AN - 71779261; 15040637 AB - Before the first Persian Gulf War, military chemical concerns were focused on life-threatening/performance-impairing effects from exposures to chemical warfare agents. Now, hazards of concern include both high and low levels of chemical warfare agents and toxic industrial chemicals in air, soil, and water. The types of health effects considered have expanded to include both immediate, acute effects (mild and severe), and delayed or chronic outcomes. Because federal exposure standards are not applicable to deployed personnel, the U.S. Army Center for Health Promotion and Preventive Medicine established military-specific exposure guidelines in Technical Guide 230, Chemical Exposure Guidelines for Deployed Military Personnel. Methods used to develop the guidelines address toxicological data limitations, uniqueness of military populations and exposure scenarios, and a risk assessment process compatible with existing military operational risk management doctrine. The Technical Guide 230 helps ensure chemical hazards are addressed in various deployment scenarios.

AN - 71745093; 15038246 AB - This study evaluated the effectiveness of fosphenytoin as a single or adjunctive anticonvulsant treatment for nerve agent-induced status epilepticus. Guinea pigs, implanted with cortical electroencephalographic (EEG) recording electrodes, were pretreated with pyridostigmine bromide (0.026 mg/kg, intramuscular (i.m.)) 30 min before challenge with 56 micrograms/kg, subcutaneous (s.c.), (2 x LD50) of the nerve agent soman. One min after soman, the animals were treated (i.m.) with 2 mg/kg atropine sulfate admixed with 25 mg/kg of the oxime 2-pralidoxime chloride, and the EEG was observed for seizure onset. When administered (intraperitoneal, i.p.) therapeutically 5 min after seizure onset, only the highest fosphenytoin dose (180 mg/kg) was capable of terminating seizure activity in 50% of the animals tested (3 of 6). When fosphenytoin (18-180 mg/kg) was administered as a pretreatment, i.p., 30 min before soman challenge, seizures were blocked or terminated in a dose-dependent fashion (ED50 = 61.8 mg/kg; 40.5-94.7 mg/kg = 95% confidence limits). Combinations of diazepam and fosphenytoin were also tested for effectiveness. No dose of fosphenytoin (18-56 mg/kg), given in conjunction with a fixed dose of diazepam (4.8 mg/kg, i.m.) 5 min after seizure onset, enhanced the anticonvulsant effect of diazepam. When fosphenytoin (18 or 32 mg/kg, i.p.) was given as a pretreatment and diazepam was given 5 min after seizure onset, the 32 mg/kg dose of fosphenytoin significantly reduced the time for seizure control. These studies show that fosphenytoin, either alone or in combination with diazepam, has little or no therapeutic anticonvulsant effectiveness for nerve agent-induced status epilepticus.

AN - 66643859; 15204783 AB - The inhalation toxicity of cyclohexyl methylphosphonofluoridate (GF) was examined in male and female Sprague-Dawley rats exposed by whole body in a dynamic 750-L chamber. The objectives of this study were to (1) generate GF vapor in a dynamic inhalation chamber system, starting in the lethal to near-lethal concentration range, (2) examine dose-response effects of inhaled GF vapor and analyze the relationship between concentration (C) and exposure duration (T) in determining probability of lethality, and (3) establish a lethal potency ratio between GF and the more volatile agent Sarin (GB). Using a syringe pump, GF vapor concentrations were generated for exposure times of 10, 60, and 240 min. Dose-response curves with associated slopes were determined for each exposure duration by the Bliss probit method. GF vapor exposures were associated with sublethal clinical signs such as tremors, convulsions, salivation, and miosis. Concentration-exposure time values for lethality in 50% of the exposed population (LCT(50)) were calculated for 24-h and 14-day postexposure periods for 10-, 60-, and 240-min exposures. In general, LCT(50) values were lower in female rats than males and increased with exposure duration; that is, CT was not constant over time. The GF LCT(50) values for female rats were 253 mg min/m(3) at 10 min, 334 mg min/m(3) at 60 min, and 533 mg min/m(3) at 240 min, while the values for males were 371, 396, and 585 mg min/m(3), respectively. The GB LCT(50) values for female rats were 235 mg min/m(3) at 10 min, 355 mg min/m(3) at 60 min, and 840 mg min/m(3) at 240 min, while the values for males were 316, 433, and 1296 mg min/m(3), respectively. At longer exposure durations, the LCT(50) for GF was less than that found for GB but at shorter exposure durations, the LCT(50) for GF was more than that found for GB.

Some of these exercises require live fire of ordnance containing high explosives. One aspect of managing the ranges so as to mitigate the environmental consequences of training is to identify the location, extent, and potential migration of munitions residues in soils, surface waters, and groundwater. This report summarizes analytical results for soil samples collected from firing points and some impact areas at the Donnelly Training Area near Delta Junction, Alaska. Explosives residues are for the most part undetectable or at very low concentrations (parts per billion) in the soils of impact areas. The exceptions are soils near or under partial ordnance detonations, targets, and rocket motor debris. We found high concentrations (parts per thousand) of TNT in soils next to partially detonated 500-lb and 2000-lb bombs; moderate concentrations (parts per million) of RDX and TNT around targets; and moderate concentrations (parts per million) of NG under rocket motor debris. At firing points used for 105-mm howitzers, 2,4-DNT is detectable in surface soils at parts-per-million concentrations. This analyte is associated with burned and unburned fibers of propellant that are sprayed to distances of at least 100 m from the muzzle. The highest concentrations of 2,4-DNT were in soils where excess propellant is burned for disposal. Because of the very low soil clean-up levels listed by the State of Alaska for this compound, appropriate and reproducible laboratory and field sampling procedures need to be developed to monitor this analyte.

Most of these residues come from bulk composition left over following low-order detonations. Of particular concern is RDX, which is environmentally persistent and mobile, and can therefore lead to groundwater pollution. Base hydrolysis can be used to rapidly decompose TNT and RDX in aqueous solutions. Hydrolysis of TNT produces soluble and insoluble polymers, while hydrolysis of RDX releases simple inorganic ions. It is reasonable to expect that similar chemical reactions could be used to decontaminate explosives residues in situ on contaminated range soils. This project investigated surface application of agricultural lime to hydrolyze residual energetic materials (including TNT, RDX, HMX, and 2,4-DNT) that had been deposited on shallow soils at a hand grenade training range. Laboratory experiments conducted using soil samples from the range indicated that lime could be used to destroy all of the TNT and most of the RDX. Results of the laboratory experiments were used to guide field trials at the range. Unfortunately, the heterogeneous distributions of residual TNT and RDX were so great that statistically significant results could not be demonstrated using samples collected from shallow surface soil. Lime applications are continuing at this site. Samples from below the depth of active soil deposition and mixing (cratering) should be collected in the future using remote-controlled equipment. Such samples should reveal whether the lime treatment reduces the downward migration of energetics residuals from the surface.

Smoke was mixed at a 1:1 ratio with 100% O sub(2) to minimize hypoxia. Plasma and expired breath samples were collected pre-smoke, and 6, 12, 18, 24, 36 and 48 h after smoke exposure. Sheep were euthanatized 48 h after smoke exposure and lung and airway sections were evaluated histologically for injury and biochemically for indices of oxidative stress. Plasma thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were 66 and 69% higher than controls after moderate and severe smoke exposure at 48 h, whereas total antioxidant potential was not statistically different among groups at any time after exposure. Lung TBARS showed a dose-dependent response to smoke inhalation and were approximately 2-, 3- and 4-fold higher, respectively, than controls after exposure to 5, 10 and 16 units of smoke. Lung myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity was also higher in smoke-exposed animals than controls, and MPO activity was markedly elevated (19- and 22-fold higher than controls in right apical and medial lobes) in response to severe smoke exposure. Smoke exposure also induced a dose-dependent injury to tracheobronchial epithelium and lung parenchyma. Taken together these data show that few indices of oxidative stress responded in a dose-dependent manner to graded doses of smoke inhalation, although most of the indices measured in lung were affected by the highest dose of smoke. Additional time course studies are necessary to determine whether these oxidants are a cause or a consequence of the airway and lung injury associated with exposure to wood smoke.

Mutagenesis demonstrated that a functional TTSS was required for the full pathogenicity of ATCC 23344 in the BALB/c mouse and Syrian hamster models of infection.

The primary objectives of this trial were to determine the safety and immunogenicity of the vaccine and to determine the duration of colonization. Four of 34 volunteers experienced transient fevers, and three reported diarrhea during the first 3 days of the study. Half of the volunteers mounted a positive serum immunoglobulin A (IgA) response to S. flexneri lipopolysaccharide. All but one of the volunteers excreted the vaccine in their stools for 1 to 33 days, and this excretion was often intermittent. Data from the community-based study were supplemented with an inpatient trial in which three volunteers received 10 and nine received 10 CFU. All volunteers who received 10 CFU excreted SC602 and had an IgA antibody- secreting cell response. Two of these had a serum IgA response. Six of the nine volunteers who received 10 CFU excreted SC602. One vaccinee had a transient fever and two met the definition of diarrhea. Six volunteers that received 10 CFU had an antibody-secreting cell response, and four had a serum IgA response. SC602 has now been tested at 10 CFU in a total of 58 volunteers. The cumulative results of these clinical trials, reported here and previously (Coster et al., Infect. Immun. 67:3437-3443, 1999), have demonstrated that SC602 is a substantially attenuated candidate vaccine that can evoke protection against the most severe symptoms of shigellosis in a stringent human challenge model of disease.

We developed a more quantitative, sensitive, and semi-automated procedure for detecting germination by using a microtiter kinetic reader for fluorescence spectrophotometry. The procedure was based on the increase in fluorescence of spores with time during their incubation in germination medium containing a fluorescent nucleic acid-binding dye which stained germinated B. anthracis but not ungerminated (UG) spores. Spore germination in the presence of several germinants was characterized. Although l-alanine and inosine alone stimulated rapid germination in this assay, a medium containing optimal concentrations of l-alanine, adenosine, and casamino acids gave low background fluorescence, stimulated germination completely, and at a reasonable rate. Suspensions of heat-activated, UG spores of B. anthracis strain Ames were preincubated with antibodies (Abs) against whole spores to assess their effect on germination. Analyses of the germination data obtained revealed significant differences between spores pretreated with these Abs and those treated with non-immune sera or IgG. Germination inhibitory activity (GIA) was detected for several polyclonal rabbit anti-spore Ab preparations. These included anti-Ames strain spore antisera, IgG purified from the latter, and spore affinity-purified Abs from antisera elicited against four strains of B. anthracis. Abs elicited against UG as well as completely germinated Ames spores inhibited germination. Abs were ranked according to their GIA, and those specific for UG spores usually exhibited greater GIA. Direct binding to spores of these Abs was detected by an ELISA with whole un-germinated Ames spores. Although specific binding to spores by the anti-spore Abs was shown, their titers did not correlate with their GIA levels. Current efforts are focused on identifying the spore antigens recognized by the anti-spore Abs, characterizing the role of these targeted antigens in disease pathogenesis, and evaluating the ability of specific anti-spore Abs to protect against infection with B. anthracis.

Patients with MB leprosy received ROM (n = 10) or World Health Organization multi-drug therapy (MDT) (n = 11). Treatment with ROM was given as 24 consecutive monthly observed doses of rifampin (600 mg), ofloxacin (400 mg), and minocycline (100 mg). Treatment with MDT was given as 24 consecutive monthly observed doses of rifampin (600 mg) and clofazimine (300 mg), and unobserved daily dapsone (100 mg) and clofazimine (50 mg). Twenty patients completed the 24-month regimens with > 99% compliance. Treatments with ROM and MDT were safe, tolerable, and caused similar improvements in lesions, bacterial indices, and histology. All MDT recipients developed clofazimine-induced pigmentation. Six ROM and nine MDT recipients assessed at five or more years after completion of treatment had no evidence of relapse. Twenty-four months of treatment with ROM is a safe, well-tolerated, and convenient regimen that may provide an alternate therapy to MDT for MB leprosy. Larger trials with sufficient follow-up would better define the role of ROM.

Guinea pig exposures ranged from 0.05 to 44 LD sub(50), and reactivated nerve agent levels ranged from 1.0 ng/mL in plasma obtained from 0.05 LD sub(50) sarin-exposed guinea pigs to an average of 147 ng/g in kidney tissue obtained from two 2.0 LD sub(50) soman-exposed guinea pigs. Positive dose-response relationships were observed in all low-level, 0.05 to 0.4 LD sub(50), exposure studies. An average value of 2.4 ng/mL for reactivated soman was determined in plasma obtained from two rhesus monkeys three days after a 2 LD sub(50) exposure. Of the five types of guinea pig tissue studied, plasma, heart, liver, kidney and lung, the lung and kidney tissue yielded the highest amounts of reactivated agent. In similar tissue and with similar exposure procedures, reactivated soman levels were greater than reactivated sarin levels. Levels of reactivated agents decreased rapidly with time while the guinea pig was alive, but decreased much more slowly after death. This latter chemical stability should facilitate forensic retrospective identification. The high level of reactivated agents in guinea pig samples led to the hypothesis that the principal source of reactivated agent came from the agent-carboxylesterase adduct. However, there could be contributions from adducts of the cholinesterases, albumin and fibrous tissue, as well. Quantitative analysis was performed with a GC-MS system using selected ion monitoring of the 99 and 125 ions for sarin and the 99 and 126 ions for soman. Detection levels were as low as 0.5 ng/mL. The assay was precise and easy to perform, and has potential for exposure analysis from organophosphate nerve agents and pesticides in other animal species.

We sampled the vegetation on this slope before the fire and at 8 sites following the fire at irregular intervals from 1 yr to 25 yr. During the first decade after the fire, short-term recovery was dominated by bryophytes, sedges, and grasses from both regrowing sedge tussocks and seedlings. However, during the second and third decade, and by 24 yr after the fire, evergreen (Ledum palustre) and deciduous shrubs (mainly Salix pulchra willow) expanded dramatically so that shrub cover was generally higher than before the fire. Labrador tea has increased by vegetative means on the poorly drained lowest 3 tussock-shrub tundra sites. Upslope on the better-drained and more severely burned tussock-shrub and dwarf shrub tundra sites, willows became established from seed mainly during the first 10 yr after the fire and, based on their relatively large size (0.5-1 m tall) and cover, have grown rapidly during the past 15 to 20 yr. There has been very little or no recovery of Sphagnum moss and fruticose lichens after 24 yr at any site, except for Sphagnum moss in the wet meadow site. The permafrost active layer thickness has diminished to prefire levels at the lower slope tussock-shrub tundra sites but is much greater or degraded completely on the steeper slope, corresponding with the distribution of willow shrub colonization. These changes in tundra vegetation and permafrost following fire suggest that such fires could accelerate the predicted effects of climate warming on ecosystems in the Arctic.

The Army Corps of Engineers currently uses reliability analyses to economically justify the major rehabilitation of navigation structures. This paper illustrates how the Condition Index visual inspections for locks and dams can be modified and used to update the reliability analysis of a steel miter gate. The miter gates on two existing locks and dams along the Mississippi River are used as examples for corrosion and fatigue deterioration. The approach used is applicable to any structure where the inspection condition states are quantitative and a model exists to relate visual inspection results to the actual deterioration state of the structure.

Samples were analyzed for major element concentrations, specific conductance and pH. Samples from five of the sites were analyzed for trace element concentrations. Pb, Cd, SO sub(4) super(2-) and non-sea salt SO sub(4) super(2-) concentrations were significantly higher in layers deposited later in the winter than those deposited earlier. This is consistent with the seasonal increase in atmospheric aerosol loading (arctic haze) that develops as the Arctic polar front expands southward in March and April. Haze contaminant concentrations in the snow pack were as high south of the Brooks Range as they were to the north, suggesting the Brooks Range is not an effective orographic barrier to aerosol transport. Computed yearly non-sea salt SO sub(4) super(2-) loading rates at the 16 sites ranged from 12 to 281 mg/m super(2)/yr. Elevated concentrations of Hg, Na and Cl were measured near the Arctic Ocean coast but not near the Bering Sea coast. To explain this pattern we suggest that the 'effective distance from the coast, ' inferred from prevailing wind directions and storm tracks, is critical in governing whether halogen emissions from the ocean are available for photochemical reactions that result in Hg deposition to the snow.

AN - 80118290; 14610082 AB - Previously, the histidine residue at position 16 in the mature T4 pyrimidine dimer glycosylase (T4-PDG) protein has been suggested to be involved in general (non-target) DNA binding. This interpretation is likely correct, but, in and of itself, cannot account for the most dramatic phenotype of mutants at this position: their inability to restore ultraviolet light resistance to a DNA repair-deficient Escherichia coli strain. Accordingly, this residue has been mutated to serine, glutamic, aspartic acid, lysine, cysteine, and alanine. The mutant proteins were expressed, purified, and their abilities to carry out several functions of T4-PDG were assessed. The mutant proteins were able to perform most functions tested in vitro, albeit at reduced rates compared with the wild type protein. The most likely explanation for the biochemical phenotypes of the mutants is that the histidine residue is required for rapid turnover of the enzyme. This role is interpreted and discussed in the context of a reaction mechanism able to account for the complete spectrum of products generated by T4-PDG during a single turnover cycle.

This study assessed the effects of ad libitum consumption of a carbohydrate beverage supplement (8% maltodextrin sweetened with aspartame) on energy and carbohydrate intakes of physically active test volunteers. Methods: Energy and carbohydrate intakes of volunteers randomly assigned to receive either a carbohydrate beverage supplement (CHO) (n=32) or a non-caloric placebo beverage (PLACEBO) (n=31) during an 11-day field training exercise were assessed. Mean total energy expenditure (TEE), water turnover (R sub(H2O)), and total body water (TBW) were measured in a sub-group of volunteers (CHO: n=10, PLACEBO: n=9) using the stable isotopes super(2)H sub(2)O and H sub(2) super(18)O. Results: The CHO group had greater daily energy intake (EI sub(CHO): 12.8+/-0.6 MJ/day; EI sub(PLACEBO): 11.0+/-0.8 MJ/day; p<0.05) and carbohydrate intake (CHO: 470+/-139 g/day; PLACEBO: 317+/-68 g/day; p<0.05). No differences were observed in TEE (TEE sub(CHO): 18.41+/-4.40 MJ/day; TEE sub(PLACEBO): 16.12+/-2.70 MJ/day), TBW (TBW sub(CHO): 46.9+/-5.5 L; TBW sub(PLACEBO): 44.5+/-3.3 L) or water turnover (R sub(H2O-CHO): 5.6+/-1.1 L/day; R sub(H2O-PLACEBO): 5.1+/-0.7 L/day) between groups. Discussion: Providing a carbohydrate beverage may reduce energy and CHO deficits that commonly occur during recreational treks or in those working for extended periods in wilderness environments.

Intermediates and mechanistic study. AN - 80107821; 14740755 AB - A representative polyoxometalate, alpha-12-tungstophosphatic acid (PW12(3-), POM), is loaded on the surface of TiO2 particles used as a cocatalyst to gain further insights into the underlying reaction mechanism and to estimate the feasibility of using the new POM/TiO2 cocatalyst in the photocatalytic degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol (DCP) in aqueous media. Loading the PW12(3-) species on the surface of TiO2 enhances charge separation in the UV-illuminated TiO2, thereby accelerating the hydroxylation of the initial DCP substrate but not the mineralization of DCP, which is somewhat suppressed in the presence of the polyoxometalate. An increase in the load of POM increases the concentration of aromatic intermediates, and more toxic intermediates, such as 2,6-dichlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, are detected in the PW12(3-)/TiO2 system. By contrast, cleavage of the whole conjugated structure of DCP predominates in TiO2 only dispersions. Strong ESR signals for the superoxide radical anionic species, O2*- (HO2* radicals in acidic media; pH < 5), are detected in TiO2 only dispersions; signals of O2*- are much weaker in the TiO2/ POM composite system under otherwise identical conditions. Experimental results infers that enhancement of charge separation in TiO2 photocatalysis does not always result in improvement of the efficiency of mineralization of organic substrates, and the reaction between organic radical cations and the formed superoxide radical anions may be responsible forthe mineralization of the chlorophenol.

AN - 80081324; 14704348 AB - The abasic (AP) sites, the major mutagenic and cytotoxic genomic lesions, induced directly by oxidative stress and indirectly after excision of damaged bases by DNA glycosylases, are repaired by AP-endonucleases (APEs). Among two APEs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Apn1 provides the major APE activity, and Apn2, the ortholog of the mammalian APE, provides back-up activity. We have cloned apn1 and apn2 genes of Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and have shown that inactivation of Apn2 and not Apn1 sensitizes this fission yeast to alkylation and oxidative damage-inducing agents, which is further enhanced by Apn1 inactivation. We also show that Uve1, present in S.pombe but not in S.cerevisiae, provides the back-up APE activity together with Apn1. We confirmed the presence of APE activity in recombinant Apn2 and in crude cell extracts. Thus S.pombe is distinct from S.cerevisiae, and is similar to mammalian cells in having Apn2 as the major APE.

AN - 71678599; 14980048 AB - Postoperative complications and nutritional deficits resulting from bariatric surgery can lead to severe vitamin-deficiency states, such as Wernicke's encephalopathy (WE). Patients with acute WE generally present with the classic clinical triad of inattentiveness, ataxia, and ophthalmoplegia. We describe a patient who presented with acute WE at 2 months after laparoscopic bariatric surgery. Initial MRI of the brain demonstrated the characteristic injuries of WE, and repeat imaging showed resolution after 4 months of thiamine supplementation, at which time the patient had normal gait but persistent memory deficits. Even with early recognition and aggressive therapy, acute WE commonly results in permanent disability due to the irreversible cytotoxic effects on specific regions of the brain. Since the clinical onset of acute WE follows a predictable time-course in post-bariatric surgery patients with malnutrition, we recommend prevention by administration of parenteral thiamine beginning at 6 weeks postoperatively in malnourished patients.

AN - 71592030; 14659366 AB - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is developing Ecological Soil Screening Level (Eco-SSL) benchmarks for ecological risk assessment (ERA) of contaminants at Superfund sites. Eco-SSLs are developed from published values whenever sufficient quantity and quality of data exist. Because insufficient information was available to generate an Eco-SSL for Mn, standardized toxicity testing was undertaken to fill the data gaps. Tests included the earthworm (Eisenia fetida) cocoon production test, the enchytraeid (Enchytraeus crypticus) reproduction test, and the collembolan (Folsomia candida) reproduction test, all conducted in Sassafras sandy loam soil that supports a relatively high bioavailability of metals. Weathering and aging of manganese-amended soil were carried out to more closely simulate exposure effects at Superfund sites on soil invertebrates. Data were analyzed by nonlinear regression to determine EC20 and EC50 values based on concentration-response relationships. The toxicity order for manganese in Sassafras sandy loam was E. crypticus>E. fetida>F. candida, with EC20 values of 116, 629, and 1209 mg kg(-1), respectively. The Eco-SSL requirement for the testing of multiple representative species is well justified. All study results will be submitted to the Eco-SSL Task Group for quality control review prior to inclusion in the Eco-SSL database.

AN - 71562311; 14680617 AB - Although intravenous use of radiocontrast media (RCM) for a variety of radiographic procedures is generally safe, clinically significant acute hypersensitivity reactions still occur in a significant percentage of patients. The mechanism of these anaphylactoid, or "pseudoallergic," reactions is complex, involving complement activation, direct degranulation of mast cells and basophils, and modulation of enzymes and proteolytic cascades in plasma. In this review, basic information on different RCMs and their reactogenicity is summarized and updated, and the prevalence, pathomechanism, prediction, prevention, treatment, and economic impact of hypersensitivity reactions are discussed. Particular attention is paid to the in vitro and in vivo evidence supporting complement activation as an underlying cause of RCM reactions.

AN - 66980211; 15452390 AB - Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors are used as an adjunct to antiplatelet therapy in percutaneous coronary intervention to reduce postprocedural enzyme elevations. Previous studies have shown a risk for thrombocytopenia that is associated with these agents. We sought to evaluate the incidence and outcomes of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor-associated thrombocytopenia in an unselected series of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. We reviewed 984 interventions performed on 908 subjects over a specific time period. Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors were used in 58.8% of cases. Their use increased from 38 to 82% during the study period (p 0.05). The occurrence of thrombocytopenia was not associated with increased in-hospital mortality, 1-year mortality, myocardial infarction or revascularization, but was associated with a hospital stay twice as long as in those patients without thrombocytopenia (5.6 +/- 11.3 vs. 2.1 +/- 2.2 days, p < 0.001). Of the 5.4% of patients who developed thrombocytopenia, only 2 patients (7.1%) required platelet or blood cell transfusion. Copyright (c) 2004 S. Karger AG, Basel.

AN - 66700752; 15252866 AB - One of the established activities of the nerve agent VX is inhibition of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE). This inhibition affects the cholinergic nervous system by decreasing the activity of the neurotransmitter-hydrolyzing enzyme cholinesterase (ChE). In an effort to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the molecular pathways affected by low-level exposure to VX, an expression profiling approach was used to identify genes with altered RNA expression patterns after exposure.Specifically, mice were exposed to 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, and 0.6 LD50 VX for a period of 2 weeks. At 2 h, 72 h, and 2 weeks after the final exposure, RNA was isolated from both the hippocampus and the cortex. Changes in gene expression levels were assessed by DNA microarray technology and grouped according to their expression patterns. Data presented here demonstrate that 2 weeks postexposure all up-regulated gene expression has returned to pre-exposure levels, including genes related to the central nervous system. Additionally, this investigation has revealed non-AChE pathway genes involved in other neuronal functions that display altered expression profiles after VX exposure.

AN - 66666173; 15225403 AB - Agriculture is one of the easiest sectors of the U.S. economy to disrupt, and its disruption could have catastrophic consequences for the U.S. and world economies. Agriculture in the U.S. accounts for 13% of the current Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and provides employment for 15% of the population. It produces high-quality, cheap, plentiful food for domestic consumption and accounts for more than $50 billion in exports. The likelihood of terrorist acts interrupting the production, processing, and distribution of agricultural products is high: A number of different possible plant or animal pathogens could cause harm or loss of production, and even an act of agroterrorism that did not result in the destruction of foodstuffs or interruptions in the food supply could have a psychological impact. A number of recent unintentional events and epidemics have prompted the U.S. and other countries to provide resources to counteract contagious diseases and contain their impact, including increased funding to federal agencies that are responsible for protecting domestic agriculture. This article presents recommendations to protect agriculture, including changing the way agriculture is viewed on the federal level and increasing the resources to protect agriculture from terrorist attack.

AN - 66651434; 15202154 AB - Although not well established, mask leakage measured using submicron aerosol challenges is generally accepted as being representative of vapor challenges. The purpose of this study was to compare simulated respirator fit factors (FFs) measured using vapor challenges to those measured using an aerosol challenge. A full-facepiece respirator was mounted on a headform inside a small enclosure and modified with controlled leaks (laser-drilled orifices) to produce FFs ranging from about 300 to 30,000. A breathing machine was used to simulate breathing conditions of 1.0 L tidal volume and 25 breaths/min. A monodisperse aerosol consisting of 0.72 micron polystyrene latex spheres (PSL) was used for the reference test aerosol, and FFs were measured using a laser aerosol spectrometer. An inert gas, sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), and an organic vapor, isoamyl acetate (IAA), were used as the vapor challenges. The in-mask concentration of SF6 was measured using a gas chromatograph (GC). A GC was also used to quantify in-mask IAA concentration samples actively collected with sorbent tubes. FF measurements made with the PSL aerosol challenge were conducted in sequence with the SF6 and IAA challenges, without disturbing the mask, to yield matched data pairs for regression analysis. FFs measured using the PSL reference aerosol were found to correlate well with those measured with the SF6 (r2 = 0.99) and IAA (r2 = 0.98) vapor challenges. FFs measured using IAA tended to be higher at values below 10,000. The best agreement was observed with the inert gas, SF6. The results of this study suggest that submicron aerosols are suitable as quantitative fit test challenges for assessing the performance of respirators against inert vapors.

A secondary use of the site was for munitions testing and disposal. Little historical information exists describing disposal practices, and more debris is believed to be buried in the subsurface. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has identified several areas of concern throughout the former Tyson Valley Powder Farm. A surface-geophysical investigation was performed by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, to evaluate the areal and vertical extent of metallic debris in the subsurface within three of these areas of concern.

Although GENESIS can quantitatively estimate the response of the beach to almost arbitrary configurations of initial shoreline shapes, shore-protection structures, and beach fill placements, some processes are not yet represented. This paper describes a new major capability recently implemented in the model, representation of tombolos at detached breakwaters and T-head groins.

Groins can be impermeable or permeable, the latter type of structure being the subject of this paper. The southern shoreline of Naples Beach, Collier County, Florida is stabilized by a permeable wood groin field. Constructed in the 1950's, the groin field was designed to stabilize the beach and reduce sediment losses off the beach into Gordon Pass, the end of the littoral cell. Because of age and deterioration, the groins no longer function as designed. Collier County contracted with the University of Florida in support of the permitting and restoration of the permeable groin field to its original design function. The University of Florida study included a series of laboratory experiments and development of a numerical model to gain a quantitative understanding of groin hydrodynamics. Observations from the experiments and model results were compared to Naples Beach. Design criteria for permeable groins including groin length, spacing and permeability were established. This paper presents the Naples Beach Case Study, literature review of previous work on permeable groins, and results of the University of Florida study supporting the functions and benefits of permeable versus impermeable groins.

Nevertheless, few nation-wide coastal zone policies have tried to minimize the negative visual intrusion of such groins. Spain, however, has led that kind of policy. Despite any unattractive aspects, coastal groins are, in many cases, an unavoidable and necessary complement to beach nourishment. They delay fill erosion and lessen periodic renourishment costs. This solution has been socially well accepted in many cases when aesthetic aspects have been incorporated explicitly as a crucial part of the whole beach restoration project. In particular terminal groins can improve the social acceptance of beach restoration projects, when adequately designed from both aesthetic and recreational standpoints.

It remains unclear, however, about the extent to which sediment flux to downdrift beaches is increased and how the notch affects the nearshore current structure. Stevens Institute of Technology and the Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, conducted field experiments to examine the impacts of groin notching on the hydrodynamics and sediment transport patterns up drift and downdrift of the structure. These experiments were conducted with the aim of providing high-resolution measurements of the nearshore circulation pattern and quantitative estimates of sediment transport flux through the notch. Experiments were conducted at Long Beach Island and in Spring Lake, New Jersey. Both studies included directional wave and water elevation measurements, beach profile surveys, sediment flux measurements, and current measurements at several locations. Analysis of the field data revealed that that the most effective sediment bypassing occurs when the notch was located in the swash zone rather than the surf zone. It was also found that the tide shifts the region of maximum alongshore currents and sediment flux relative to the position of the notch and that notching in the surf zone is most efficient when waves were breaking at the seaward end of the notch. Notching in the surf zone caused a localized increase in the magnitude of the alongshore current over that which would be expected for a planar beach.

Although in use since the 18th century, the knowledge available does not yet allow to provide a definite answer to their functioning. For this purpose, an extensive research program was initiated at the Leichtweiss-Institute in Braunschweig, Germany. The main objective of this paper is to present and discuss the underlying hydraulic processes of permeable groins as compared to their impermeable counterparts, and then to suggest tentative practical recommendations for the design of permeable pile groins. For this purpose, systematic fixed-bed model tests as well as field surveys along the Baltic Coast were carried out. The laboratory investigations include systematic tests with single groins as well as with groin systems which are first subject to a uniform longshore current without waves (Phase I) and then to oblique waves (Phase II). The laboratory experiments are used to investigate the flow and water level conditions induced by groins as a function of the permeability and other characteristics of the groins. The field surveys rather focus on observations of morphological profile changes induced by permeable groins. These morphological changes are linked with the current conditions recorded in the laboratory. Both laboratory results and the field surveys indicate that the hydraulic functioning of permeable and impermeable groins are fundamentally different. Permeable groins show clear advantages as compared with their impermeable counterparts with respect to (i) the water level conditions in the groin fields, (ii) the changes of velocity distribution induced by groins and groin systems, (iii) the generation of large-scale flow patterns and vortices and (iv) the formation of rip-currents.

The project consists of a revetment, six large headlands and beachfill to protect a naturally eroding beach, to minimize the downdrift impacts through bypassing the historic supply of sand and compensating for part of the sand budget deficit, and to allow for continued seine net fishing. The design methodology involved sediment budget analysis, physical and numerical modeling, and shoreline monitoring. An intensive monitoring program in the construction phase of the project has been conducted to test several critical and underlying assumptions of the design phase and to modify the design accordingly. Several design criteria such as shape, length and spacing of the headlands; beach plan shapes, required beachfill quantities and construction consideration considerations are also discussed.

Because shore-protection and beach-restoration projects are designed to provide a stable and uniform beach, the trapping function of groins and the associated alongshore shoreline variability is undersirable. To promote sediment transport to downdrift beaches, many groins in New Jersey have been notched, involving removal of a portion of the top layer. However, there remains a great deal of uncertainty about the modification of the nearshore hydrodynamics and sediment transport at notched groins. Stevens Institute of Technology and the Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, conducted field studies in Spring Lake and Long Beach Island, New Jersey, to examine the short-term response of the nearshore current structure and sediment transport at fine temporal (order of minutes) and spatial (order of meters) scales in the vicinity of the notched groins. Beach profile surveys and measurement of directional waves, and water elevation, sediment flux and current were made at several locations. Analyses revealed that the cross-shore location of the notch relative to the position of the surf zone strongly controls the direction and magnitude of sediment flux through the notch. It was also found that the groin notch should be located within the swash zone under all but extreme wave conditions to maintain comparable beach profiles updrift and downdrift of the structure.

Modern coastal engineering practice combines beach nourishment with a groin design suitable to permit sand bypassing of the groin field without loss to the system. This paper summarizes elements in the functional design of groins as presented in the new Coastal Engineering Manual (CEM) of the US Army Corps of Engineers. The CEM replaces the Shore Protection Manual. The most significant change is the explicit acknowledgement of a minimum, dry beach width as a central empirical design criterion for the use of groins in coastal storm protection. Modern numerical models are helpful to study coastal processes both alongshore and on-offshore for the project location and in conducting an analysis of design elements. Field monitoring and the development of performance criteria are also recommended to determine the level of performance success, to establish triggers prompting the need for project maintenance, and to identify adverse impacts to adjacent beaches. Such practices and safeguards will help to overcome the negative perceptions of groins and groin fields as a viable technology for coastal erosion mitigation.

The pre-project beach consisted of large shore perpendicular rubble mound structures and almost no dry beach width. While designing the beach fill, the potential of the rubble mound groins to interrupt long-shore sediment transport and decrease the project's longevity was a concern. Removing all of the groins was financially prohibitive. However, removing the 100 ft section from each groin that was in the active sediment transport zone surfaced as an alternative whereby the groin could potentially trap some of the sediment and also allow some sediment to be transported to downdrift beaches. This groin notching technique was demonstrated on 35 groins that were notched between 1995 and 1999. This case study describes the history of the project, the design memorandum conclusions, construction considerations, and monitoring results. A shoreline analysis of 15 groins compartments was done to determine the most optimum cross-shore location to place the groin notch. Based on the limited data, it appears that placing the notch closer to shore minimizes overall dry beach erosion and maintains larger minimum beach widths. However, notches closer to shore form larger updrift fillets and cause the shorelines to be slightly crescent. More data and research are necessary, as significant scatter in the data exists.

Notching increases the longshore sand transport through the structure that can reach the downdrift beach while maintaining some local level of protection. Notching is typically more economical than shortening of an existing structure. Because little is known about the functioning of notched groins, a movable-bed physical model study was conducted to examine processes and responses at a single groin installed in a large wave basin. Cases investigated were: a long, impermeable groin; a short groin (as compared to the long groin), and three notched-groin variations as a notch at the breaker line, notch in the mid-surf zone, and notch in the swash zone. The purpose of the short and notched groins was to allow controlled bypassing of sand transported alongshore by waves breaking at an oblique angle. The various groin configurations produced different patterns of the nearshore current and sand transport, inducing different beach and shoreline responses. Groin influence on breaking wave height and sand suspension was limited to the vicinity of the structure. Factors that determined the functioning were the distribution patterns of the longshore and cross-shore sand transport, permeability of the groin, groin length, and location and depth of the notch. A notch located in the swash zone produced the greatest direct benefit to the subaerial beach and was considered the most efficient. It is desirable to allow some passing of the longshore current through the outer surf zone to reduce the development of a rip current. The rip current that tends to persist on the updrift side of a groin transports sand offshore and acts to produce a net loss of beach sand to the offshore region. Onshore transport is necessary for the sand that is transported to the offshore by a rip current to nourish the downdrift beach, and a net onshore-transport condition may not always occur on all coasts.

These groins were built along a made-land (i.e., lakefill) shore in water as much as 6 m (20 ft) deep. The oldest of these groins dates from 1904. During their lives the groins have had varying degrees of rehabilitation and modifications, but all have performed well in the retention of beach sand. The older groins (pre-1931) were built as rock-filled timber cribs that were later faced with steel sheetpile during major rehabilitation projects; the younger groins (since 1931) were built with cribs of steel sheetpile. These six groins range in length from 61 to 762 m (200 to 2500ft). All are wide structures (3.8-9.7 m; 12.5-32 ft) having formed-in-place concrete walkways as a cap which provide public access along the groins. Each serves as an extension of the adjacent lakeshore parks providing access to an offshore destination point for fishing, jogging, walking, or viewing the city skyline from across the water. These groins of the Chicago lakeshore are examples of how such structures on an urban shore can not only perform beach retention, but can also contribute to the aesthetics of the shore and be an integral part of a well-designed urban shoreline.

Permeable pile groins have also been used as a means of river control. Yet, they barely feature in the literature, in contrast to impervious groins. The performance of pervious pile groins differs from that of impervious groins. The shoreline with permeable pile groins is typically continuous and does not display the saw-tooth feature of a shoreline responding to impervious groins. The permeable pile groins act as a roughness to shore-parallel flow and slows it down. By not completely intercepting the longshore current, pile groins are arguably more efficient than solid groins. Their effect on waves is small. The superposition of a current on wave motion substantially increases the turbulence intensity at the bed, leading to an increased amount of sediment mobilized and transported by the longshore current. Any reduction in the longshore current velocity through a groin field therefore leads to a reduction in the amount of sediment transported. Laboratory and field data indicate that at approximately 30% of mean permeability and groin spacing equal to groin length, the flow pattern through a field of permeable groins is orderly, and without large scale circulation. Rip currents are also minimized. The increase of shore-parallel velocity seaward past the groin fields is 60 to 75% of that of impervious groins, depending on the relative length of the groin to distance to the breaker line. Rip current velocities are reduced by similar amounts. This paper concludes with a few applications of permeable pile groins.

Beaches play a major role in the state's economy as recreational outlets and vacation destinations but also serve to buffer developed coastal bluffs and cliffs from direct wave attack. A reduction of beach sand supply has taken place over the past several decades due to a combination of dams on coastal streams, armoring of eroding seacliffs, mining of sand directly from river beds as well as the shoreline and the reduction in large sand contributions from coastal construction projects. The most common historical response to both seasonal beach erosion and long-term shoreline retreat in California has been seawalls and rip-rap. In recent years beach nourishment has been advocated by local government and the tourist industry as a solution to shoreline erosion and beach losses. More recently, the concept of removing dams which no longer serve any useful purpose and have trapped large volumes of beach sand have begun to be seriously evaluated. Groins have been successfully used in California to create, widen or stabilize beaches. Many of California's beaches exist because of natural littoral drift barriers such as headlands and a number owe their existence to artificial barriers such as groins, jetties and breakwaters. Groins mimic natural features and with appropriate planning, can be used more extensively to hold the sand on California's beaches in place, thereby increasing both shoreline protection and recreational areas at far less maintenance, cost and with less negative environmental impact than either armoring or artificial nourishment.

It includes a short history of practice during the 1930s to 1960s, when most groins were built. Traditional practice in South Carolina involved pile-supported timber structures, extending 75-100 m offshore, spaced approximately 200 m apart. Timber groins typically had uniform profiles at slopes of 1 on 40 to 1 on 50, compared to 1 on 25 for the native beach. Early groin fields did not include nourishment to fill the cells, and in some cases (e.g., Edisto Beach), resulted in downcoast property damage. Timber structures typically deteriorated within 20 years and were replaced by quarry stone. However, inadequacy of armorstone weights led to failure of structures. Recent projects at Edisto Beach and Pawleys Island (detailed herein) demonstrate the feasibility of using grout to create a stable, impermeable structure at modest cost without changing the existing groin cross-sections. Monitoring results after the Edisto Beach project demonstrate the nourishment requirement to satisfy trapping can be approximated by approximately one-half the difference in area between the groin profile and average beach profile in the updrift cell times the length of a cell. Results suggest the degree of adverse downcoast erosion and shoreline recession due to groins is directly related to the regional erosion rate. South Carolina case studies demonstrate mixed results. Where groins were placed along slowly eroding shorelines (e.g., Pawleys Island), updrift of areas having a long-term trend of accretion because of shoal bypassing or other inlet-related processes, there was negligible adverse impact. Where groins were placed along rapidly eroding shorelines or ones lacking an adequate upcoast supply (e.g., Edisto Beach), adverse downcoast impacts were magnified. In the Edisto Beach case, the groin field has reduced the erosion rate within the protected area by 5-10 fold and preserved property worth 50 times more than the capital cost of the shore protection. Periodic nourishment is considered to be the only practicable way to maintain adequate protection and mitigate downcoast impacts in that setting.

Construction of groins began in the latter half of the 19th century. By the 1970s, approximately 80 percent of this section of lakeshore was protected with groin-held beaches, as well as by revetments and seawalls at the bluff toe. Although many groins were part of groin-field systems, the majority were built piecemeal as privately owned beaches narrowed or were lost to coastal erosion. The primary mode of groin construction evolved from rock-filled timber crib piers and wood sheetpile groins (pre 1880 to 1930s) to solid and permeable concrete piers (1910 to 1950), cantilever steel sheetpile groins (1920s to 1990s) and, most recently, rubble-mound structures. For more than 120 years, groins were the method of choice for beach stabilization in this area. In years past, groin failure was usually the result of wood deterioration or ice damage. More recently, lakebed scour has resulted in failure at the lakeward ends of steel groins. Other factors that may affect groin performance include shore orientation, local geology and bathymetry, and a littoral system in which sand may move alongshore in discreet slugs. Measurement of 162 functioning groins with heights ranging from 1.2 to 2.8 m (4 to 9 ft) above Low Water Datum, shows that groins 30 to 54 m (100 to 175 ft) in length have been the most successful at holding beaches in a sediment-starved system where lake levels vary up to 1.8 m (6 ft) over decadal periods. However, the data show little direct correlation between groin height and beach area. Little evidence was found for accelerated downdrift erosion caused by groins. Unprotected bluffs erode at rates averaging 0.94 m (3 ft) per year regardless of whether an updrift groin or groin field was present or not. In 1980, Illinois State and Federal regulators began to require that any new beach protection structure be filled with sand to 100 percent of its holding capacity and 120 percent for structures over 38.5 m (125 ft) in length. Twelve years of experience monitoring structures has shown that periodic sand renourishment is also necessary. Thus, since 1980, the net amount of sand in the Illinois littoral drift has increased through overfill and maintenance of new beach systems. Upgrades and new construction in the 1990s include groin armoring and artificial headland construction with random placement quarrystone. From 1987 to 2000, twenty-six new stone breakwaters and groins with quarrystone headlands were built, most as a response to lakebed downcutting. In all cases, regulators required beach nourishment overfill. JF - Journal of Coastal Research AU - Shabica, Charles AU - Meshberg, Jason AU - Keefe, Rita AU - Georges, Robert A2 - Kraus, Nicholas C.

In doing so, the coast becomes more stable as the local longshore sediment transport rate reaches a minimum. However, as reported in several studies, even though properly designed, it is possible that groin systems not only cause down-drift beaches to erode, but also contribute to the generation of rip currents. These rip currents run along the updrift side of the structure, moving sediment offshore where it may be, at least in part, lost from the system. It is well known that the directionality of the incident waves is a central factor for the shoreline response to groins. Until now, however, this directionality has been characterized only by the ratio of net transport rate Q (sub n) to gross transport rate Q (sub g) . In this study it is concluded that the phase lag between the forcing and the morphodynamic response is another key factor responsible for these offshore losses. Based upon this, a relaxation time for open-coast systems and a non-dimensional morphodynamic response factor for groin compartments are introduced as new design parameters for groin systems.

Respectively, the fillet angle and the orientation of the downcoast shoreline regulate the quantity of sediment that will reach a groin from upcoast and downcoast. Blocking distances on both sides of the structure, and its effective length, determine the fillet width. Fillet width regulates how much of the material reaching the structure will bypass it in both directions. A continuity of sediment volume approach seems to provide a realistic frame-work to identify aspects of groin function that control the fillet angle and fillet width. This paper focuses on the fillet angle which a continuity parameter indicates: (1) increases with fillet width, probably due to a compression of isobaths off the structure, (2) is inversely proportional to the ratio of the upcoast to downcoast bypass rates, i.e., proportional to the net to gross longshore sediment transport ratio, and (3) declines as the ratio of the accretion rate to the supply or net longshore transport rate lessens as a fillet evolves naturally.

The gross longshore transport is substantially larger than the net drift at the location. Depending on the sequence of conditions sand fillets sometimes accumulate on the east side and sometimes on the west. Over the long term the average beach is expected to be wider on the east side. The structures and associated sand deposits that have developed over the last forty years function as artificial headland. The local wave climate is altered, and in the absence of a predominant net longshore transport, a crenulate shoreline can form on both sides of the pair of structures in conformance with wave refraction and diffraction around a headland.

The popular assessment of their performance is that they typically have not worked and have caused more problems than they have solved. In many cases, these assessments have been made based upon anecdotal information and without the benefit of long-term shoreline change data. As a consequence, some states and local governments have altogether banned the use of groins as a shoreline protection structure. However, in many circumstances, groins have functioned effectively and stabilized an eroding beach without seriously harming adjacent areas. In the face of beach erosion and property loss, groins combined with beach fill should be available as an option as a beach stabilization system where appropriate. This study employs high-quality, spatially and temporally robust (147-year) shoreline change data to assess the performance a groin field. Historical literature and shoreline change maps were studied at Bethany Beach, Delaware to assess the effectiveness of a groin field built there in the 1930s and 40s. The data illustrate shoreline movements before and after groin emplacement. The results of the analysis suggest that the groins at Bethany Beach were poorly constructed; they required several renovations and were built too short to be truly effective. However, the data also indicate that the groins, in conjunction with beach fill, arrested beach erosion at the site and effectively stabilized the beach for nearly 50-years notwithstanding their structural deficiencies.

Empirical orthogonal eigenfunction analysis and the investigation on volumetric change showed that the tidal channel deepened after construction of the jetties and that the erosion rate in the channel increased with time. The increase in the erosion rate is probably caused by the stabilization of the location of the channel and focusing of the ebb jet between the jetties. Although the accumulation rate on the up-drift side of the jetties decreased, the amount of sediment supplied to the downdrift beach did not increase. This is because some amount of sediment transported around the jetties was trapped by the ebb-tidal delta. The volume of sediment stored in the ebb-tidal delta was estimated, and compared with the equilibrium volume. Complex empirical orthogonal eigenfunction analysis showed that, during and just after construction of the jetties, shoals formed on both sides of the jetties and moved shoreward. Several years after the completion of construction, however, although the shoal on the downdrift side moved still shoreward, the shoal on the up-drift side moved seaward. The seaward movement of the shoal was assumed to be caused by the return flow and the wave-generated longshore current.

The groin is 180 m long and built with 2.5X1.8X0.7 m polypropylene bags filled with sand. It is buried under the backshore and extends to the -3 m isobath with a mean elevation of approximately 1 m above the bed. Four sets of cross-shore and longshore bathymetric profile surveys conducted from February 1999 (pre-construction) to April 2000 reveal that the submerged groin enhanced seasonal displacement of the bar system inside the 4 m isobath. Eighty-five sediment samples collected from the swash zone to 6-m water depth reveal limited changes near the groin, except for a coarsening at the landward end and in a depositional area a few hundred meters downdrift of the seaward end. Calculated rates of longshore sediment transport range from 52,909 m (super 3) /yr (Kamphuis formula) to 496,300 m (super 3) /yr (Cerc formula). The submerged groin favors deposition near the structure under fair weather conditions but deep scour (nearly 2 m) during extreme events. Unlike emergent groins, no significant changes were observed on the upper beach at the structure or on adjacent beaches. The submerged groin did not fully cross the bar system, and the deep scour associated with strong currents concentrated at its tip could lead to future collapse of the structure. A numerical model established for the site conditions was run to test the consequence of lengthening the groin to reach a depth of 5 m to place it across the zone of bar migration. The model effectively represents observed processes and predicts less scour and more deposition at the seaward tip of the lengthened groin, combined with increased likelihood of a rip current near the structure.

These features were once extensive in the ice-free areas on the southern tip of the Hut Point Peninsula on Ross Island. However, operations of McMurdo Station, which have supported scientific activities across the Antarctic continent sice the late 1950s, have disturbed much of the local area. This physical disturbance has significantly reduced the extent of sand-wedge polygons in the area surrounding the station. With the exception of an area covering approximately 0.5 km (super 2) on Arrival Heights, a smaller area of 0.15 km (super 2) near Cape Armitage and other small scattered remnants, most sand-wedge polygons in the area have been disturbed during nearly 50 years of continuous human occupation. The disturbance of sand-wedge polygons was most extensive during the first 10 years of the station's history. Mapping the presence or absence of sand-wedge polygons at McMurdo through time is one means, although imperfect, of documenting changes in the station's "footprint" of physical disturbance through time.

D, P and S are the most fundamental components of the winter arctic hydrologic cycle and understanding them is essential to understanding arctic moisture-related processes. Unfortunately, accurate solid-precipitation (P) measurements have proven nearly impossible to achieve in the Arctic, because precipitation generally falls when it is windy. Gauge undercatch can range from 55-75% depending on the gauge type and wind conditions. The state of knowledge for winter sublimation (S) is even more limited. There are few actual measurements and most studies have used physical models to estimate this quantity. Moreover, fundamental questions concerning the boundary-layer physics of arctic winter sublimation remain unanswered. Resolving these is essential to closing local, regional, and pan-Arctic moisture budgets because some studies indicate sublimation may be as much as 50% of the total winter precipitation and 35% of the annual precipitation. This paper summarizes and analyzes the existing literature describing arctic sublimation. JF - Nordic Hydrology AU - Liston, G E AU - Sturm, Matthew A2 - Bengtsson, Lars A2 - Hasholt, B.

Mechanisms of introduction include the generation of dust from firing and impact as well as the eventual corrosion of projectile fragments and unexploded ordnance. Microorganisms in surface soils have the potential to affect the transport of DU by direct binding of the metal to the cell surface, by altering near field soil chemistry that affects metal solubility, and by microbially influenced corrosion. We investigated the response (in terms of community composition) of a native soil microbiota to the presence of DU in an arid environment. Bacteria in soils outside of the test area were challenged in dilute media with "yellow cake" or U (sub 3) O (sub 8) . At concentrations of 200 to 20,000 mg L (super -1) only species of Bacillus were identified. In situ characterizations (by PLFA analysis) of exposed site soils showed an enrichment in sulfate reducing bacterial (i17:1w7c up 39%) and Bacillus species (a15:0 up 35%) biomarkers. Three types of microbial communities were defined-(as PLFA profiles) using exploratory statistics and related to three different levels of DU exposure. The community types were then statistically corresponded to site soil chemistry. Observed differences in site soil chemistry were attributed to munitions firing since enrichments (unexposed to exposed) were observed in the minerals magnesium (increase of approximately 18 mg kg (super -1) ), potassium (increase of approximately 46 mg kg (super -1) ) and sulfur (increase of approximately 12 mg kg (super -1) ), all constituents of munitions residues. Increased concentrations of these minerals corresponded with a community type that was associated with an area of extensive DU round use.

The study was conducted by DRDC Valcartier in collaboration with the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), Cold Regions Research Engineering Laboratory (CRREL), Hanover, NH, and the ERDC Environmental Laboratory (EL), Vicksburg, MS to complete the first evaluation performed during Phase I. Four ranges on the site were re-visited during August 2003. More precisely, in Alpha and Bravo ranges, more vegetation and background samples were collected for metal analyses while for Jimmy Lake and Shaver River ranges, more sampling was done to ascertain the metal and explosive concentrations. Surface water and sediment were also evaluated in Jimmy Lake and Primerose Lake. The circular sampling strategy was achieved in Jimmy Lake and Shaver River ranges. The linear transect strategy was applied to Alpha and Jimmy Lake ranges. In Shaver River range, another strategy consisting in collecting 100 discrete samples was accomplished in front of the target. In total, 324 soil samples, 69 vegetation samples, 19 surface water and 28 sediment samples were collected during Phase II. Metal analyses were done using Inductively Coupled Plasma/Mass spectrometry (ICP/MS) and explosives concentrations were determined using the High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method EPA 8330. Results showed that the quality of soil, vegetation, surface water and sediment is excellent with exception in Jimmy Lake Range where high levels of cadmium and copper were again found. This report describes the approaches and strategies used and the results obtained during this study.

Satellite photography reveals the area to consist of sutured rift blocks. We recorded the bottom profile to 145-m depth at 400 MHz, but the limited recording rate required a 100-MHz profile, recorded at a faster rate, to reveal continuous stratigraphy within the steeply dipping folds to about 80-m depth. The 400-MHz profile reveals probable suture points and shows that the blocks eroded before joining. The 100-MHz profle reveals two stratigraphic regimes, a lack of stratigraphic continuity above the erosion points, and single, severe folds on either side of these points, which implies that the force of joining is dissipated mainly near the sutures. The strength of the 400-MHz bottom signal suggests that depths to about 250m could be recorded without stacking within an 8192-samples/trace sampling rate, but the extremely faint stratigraphy signals would require stacking.

The transducer was attached to a 6.5-m boom and pushed agead of an enclosed tracked vehicle. Profile speeds of 4.8-11.3 km/hr allowed realtime crevasses image display and a quick, safe stop when required. Thirty-two crevasses were located with radar along the 4.8 km crossing. Generally, crevasse radar images were characterized by dipping reflections above the voids, high-amplitude reflections originating from ice layers at the base of the snow-bridges and slanting, diffracting reflections from near-vertical crevasse walls. New cracks and narrow crevasses show no distinct snow bridge structure, few diffractions, and a distinct band where pulse reflections are absent. (mod. journ. abst.)

The data were interpreted manually and with a computer algorithm. The algorithm interpretation was adjusted to be consistent with atmospheric methane stratigraphic ties to the GISP2 (Greenland Ice Sheet Project 2) ice core, (super 10) Be stratigraphic ties to the dendrochronology (super 14) C record and the dated volcanic stratigraphy. The algorithm interpretation is more consistent and better quantified than the tedious and subjective manual interpretation.

Samples taken from a well were compared with samples taken using low-flow sampling. The PDB sampler was the easiest to use, but could only be used to sample volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The HydraSleeve and the KABIS samplers were also easy to use; these devices produced representative concentrations of explosives, pesticides, and metals in the standpipe experiments, but elevated the turbidity in our monitoring well. Although there were statistically significant differences for some VOCs with both devices, these differences were generally very small (<5%). The one exception was an 18% loss of TCE with the KABIS sampler. The Discrete Interval sampler and the Pneumo-Bailer are pressurized devices that are designed to only collect a sample when activated. The Pneumo-Bailer was heavy and awkward to handle, required a nitrogen tank in the field, and involved many steps to operate. The Discrete Interval sampler only required a bicycle pump to pressurize the chamber and was lighter and easier to handle and operate than its counterpart. Both devices generally delivered representative concentrations of all the analytes tested.

This abrupt change did not occur 500 km away in the Byrd ice core, or in climate proxy records in the Siple Dome core indicative of the mid-latitude Pacific. This demonstrates there was significant spatial heterogeneity in the response of the Antarctic climate during the last deglaciation and draws attention to unexplained mechanisms of abrupt climate change in Antarctica.

Accumulation rates are shown to be highly variable over short distances. Elevation measurements from global positioning system surveys show that accumulation rates derived from shallow horizons correlate well with surface undulations, which implies that wind redistribution of snow is the leading cause of this variability. Temporal changes in accumulation rate over 25-185 year intervals are smoothed to along-track length scales comparable to surface undulations in order to identify trends in accumulation that are likely related to changes in climate. Results show that accumulation rates along this profile have decreased in recent decades, which is consistent with core-derived time series of annual accumulation rates measured at the two ends of the radar profile. These results suggest that temporal variability observed in accumulation-rate records from ice cores and GPR profiles can be obscured by spatial influences, although it is possible to resolve temporal signals if the effects of local topography and ice flow are quantified and removed.

Annual-layer structure was analyzed on the basis of the visible stratigraphy and electrical conductivity measurement record in each core. Annual accumulation varied appreciably between core sites and within cores at individual sites where undulating surface topography appears to be exerting a significant impact on the magnitude of snow deposition. All density profiles except one exhibited densification that was normal with respect to snow annual accumulation and 10 m firn temperatures. Snow annual accumulation was determined stratigraphically, and 10 m firn temperatures were either measured in the holes drilled for cores or inferred using elevation changes relative to Byrd Station, the 10 m temperature at Byrd Station and an assumed lapse rate. Measurements at the one exceptional location indicated that the firn had undergone extremely rapid densification to ice, with the transition to ice occurring at 35-36 m depth. Furthermore, thin-section measurements of grain-size show that the growth of crystals accelerated below the firn-ice transition. The behavior at this one site is attributed to localized deformation in the upper layers of firn and ice. Enhanced crystal growth was also observed at another site. At all other locations where grain-sizes were measured, the rates of crystal growth were in accord with age-temperature relationships observed by other researchers in Antarctica and Greenland. Profiles illustrating pore-crystal structure changes with increasing depth of burial are also presented.

High-resolution nine-component reflection data were acquired over a geologic sequence type (flat-lying unsaturated and saturated overburden materials above consolidated units) commonly encountered during geotechnical investigations. Interface energy partitioning analyses, event predictions, and elastic-wave modeling were conducted using parameters derived from field data. Common-mode (P-P and S-S) reflections from known lithologic boundaries were observed in field data; however, predicted converted-mode events were not. Modeling demonstrated that in theory, potential benefits of converted-mode reflection imaging exist for the tested subsurface conditions, but that such benefits were unable to be practically realized using field measurements, due to the low amplitudes of converted-mode reflections and the detrimental affects of random and coherent noise modes. This study shows and explains why it is not practical to use converted-mode reflection imaging for improving characterization under such subsurface conditions. The developed analysis methods can be applied to investigate converted-wave imaging potential under different conditions, and to identify near-surface media situations that may yield converted-mode reflections with amplitudes comparable (at moderate angles of incidence and over a substantial incident angles range) to those of common-mode reflections.

Recent events have demonstrated that assessing exposure to a biological threat agent well in advance of onset of illness or at various stages post-exposure is invaluable among the diagnostic options. There is an urgent need for better diagnostic tools that will be sensitive, rapid, and unambiguous. Since human clinical cases of illness induced by biothreat agents are, fortunately, rare, use of animal models that closely mimic the human illness is the only in vivo option. Such studies can be very difficult and expensive; therefore, maximizing the information obtained from in vitro exposures to peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) provide an opportunity to investigate dose/time variability in host responses. In our quest to study staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) induced host gene expression patterns, we addressed two core issues using microarray analysis and predictive modeling. Our first objective was to determine gene expression patterns in human PBMCs exposed to SEB in vitro. Second, we compared the in vitro data with host responses gene expression patterns in vivo using PBMCs from an animal model of SEB intoxication that closely replicates the progression of illness in humans. We used cDNA microarrays to study global gene expression patterns in piglets intoxicated with SEB. We applied a supervised learning method for class prediction based on the k-nearest neighbor algorithm for the data obtained in piglets exposed to SEB in vivo against a training data set. This data set included gene expression profiles derived from in vitro exposures to eight different pathogens (Bacillus anthracis, Yersinia pestis, Brucella melitensis, SEB, cholera toxin, Clostridium botulinum toxin A, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, and Dengue-2) in PBMCs. We found that despite differences in gene expression profiles between in vitro and in vivo systems, there exists a subset of genes that show correlations between in vitro and in vivo exposures, which can be used as a predictor of exposure to SEB in vivo.

The automated bioaerosol exposure system (ABES) provides a microprocessor-driven inhalation platform that provides exquisite data acquisition and control over all aspects of inhalation exposures. Because this represents a new technology, the development and characteristics of the ABES are thoroughly discussed. In addition to control over homeostatic and aerosol conditions, the ABES incorporates a dosimetry function based on respiratory performance of the test animal during inhalation. Methods: To test the system, rhesus macaques were initially sham-exposed using the ABES in a head-only inhalation configuration. The ABES was subsequently used under biosafety level (BSL)-III conditions in a vaccine efficacy challenge using aerosolized staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) toxin, again using the real-time dosimetry function of the system. Results: Sham exposure results indicated significant departures from corresponding whole-body plethysmography (WBP) respiratory function estimates taken before the inhalation procedure. The results of the SEB exposure demonstrated the utility of using the ABES to generate consistently accurate and precise inhalation dose. Discussion: Taken together, the results of the sham and toxin challenge experiments demonstrate that the dosimetry function of the ABES improves the precision and accuracy of inhaled dose delivery and calculation as compared to predictive WBP conducted before the exposure. The ABES represents a highly adaptable platform for the design of inhalation systems to suit the requirements of a variety of animal models.

The two bacteria were found to represent new species that have not been reported before. It was found that these organisms along with an added carbon source could degrade RDX to simple gaseous products. Data are presented that elucidate the mechanisms of RDX biodegradation for these organisms.

In most published applications of RE in distributed watershed-scale hydrological modelling, coarse vertical resolutions are used to decrease the computational burden. Compared to point- or field-scale studies, application at the watershed scale is complicated by diverse runoff production mechanisms, groundwater effects on runoff production, runon phenomena and heterogeneous watershed characteristics. An essential element of the numerical solution of RE is that the solution converges as the spatial resolution increases. Spatial convergence studies can be used to identify the proper resolution that accurately describes the solution with maximum computational efficiency, when using physically realistic parameter values. In this study, spatial convergence studies are conducted using the two- dimensional, distributed-parameter, gridded surface subsurface hydrological analysis (GSSHA) model, which solves RE to simulate vadose zone fluxes. Tests to determine if the required discretization is strongly a function of dominant runoff production mechanism are conducted using data from two very different watersheds, the Hortonian Goodwin Creek Experimental Watershed and the non- Hortonian Muddy Brook watershed. Total infiltration, stream flow and evapotranspiration for the entire simulation period are used to compute comparison statistics. The influences of upper and lower boundary conditions on the solution accuracy are also explored. Results indicate that to simulate hydrological fluxes accurately at both watersheds small vertical cell sizes, of the order of 1 cm, are required near the soil surface, but not throughout the soil column. The appropriate choice of approximations for calculating the near soil-surface unsaturated hydraulic conductivity can yield modest increases in the required cell size. Results for both watersheds are quite similar, even though the soils and runoff production mechanisms differ greatly between the two catchments.

We evaluated the bacterial gyrA gene as a potential chromosomal marker for B. anthracis. A real-time PCR assay was developed for the detection of B. anthracis. After analysis of the unique nucleotide sequence of the B. anthracis gyrA gene, a fluorescent 3' minor groove binding probe was tested with 171 organisms from 29 genera of bacteria, including 102 Bacillus strains. The assay was found to be specific for all 43 strains of B. anthracis tested. In addition, a test panel of 105 samples was analyzed to evaluate the potential diagnostic capability of the assay. The assay showed 100% specificity, demonstrating the usefulness of the gyrA gene as a specific chromosomal marker for B. anthracis.

AN - 18062026; 5873248 AB - Up-looking solar and atmospheric radiation sensors at remote and quasi- remote weather stations are typically intermittently covered by snow in the winter. Numerous years of radiation data compromised in this way have been collected and archived at the Snow Research Station (SRS) in Danville, Vermont, and undoubtedly at numerous other research stations around the globe. Potential users of these archived data must question whether the data have value for their purpose, whether they can be corrected, what methods can be used to correct them, and perhaps most importantly, will time-consuming correction efforts be justified by improved model performance. To answer these questions, both simple and elaborate methods of correcting incident solar and atmospheric radiation data were developed and applied to the 2001 snow season radiation data collected at the SRS. Snow-affected incident solar radiation was estimated with reflected solar radiation measurements and either a simple albedo assumption or an albedo model. The equations of Idso, Brutsaert, Brunt, and Anderson and Baker were considered for correcting atmospheric radiation. The technique of Anderson and Baker was a good practical choice for this site, when used with a station offset, clearness index, and clear-sky radiation model. Energy balance snowmelt calculations were made with SNTHERM, an internationally known and publicly available physically based snow process model. There was little justification for more than minimal corrections to radiation measurements for the presence of snow on radiation sensors when modelling snow depth, water equivalent, or melt efflux, because errors caused by snow-covered solar and atmospheric radiation sensors largely offset one another. More elaborate efforts to correct both solar and atmospheric radiation data would be justified when correct quantification of individual snowpack energy components is important.

Measurement errors in SWE are caused by differences in the compressibility of the pressure sensor and the adjacent snow layer, which produces a shear stress along the perimeter of the sensor. When the temperature at the base of the snow cover equals 0 degree C, differences in the snowmelt rate between the snow-SWE sensor interface and the adjacent snow-soil interface may also produce a shear stress along the sensor's perimeter. This shear stress perturbs the pressure field over the sensor, producing SWE measurement errors. Snow creep acts to reduce shear stresses along the SWE sensor's perimeter at a rate that is inversely proportional to the snow viscosity. For sustained periods of differential snowmelt, a difference in the mass of snow over the sensor compared with the surrounding soil will develop, producing additional permanent errors in SWE measurements. The theory indicates that SWE pressure sensor performance can be improved by designing a sensor with a high Young's modulus (low compressibility), low aspect ratio, large diameter and thermal properties that match those of the surrounding soil. Simulations of SWE pressure sensor errors using the theory are in close agreement with observed errors and may provide a means to correct historical SWE measurements for use in hydrological hindcast or climate studies.

This study develops a heuristic model with the three distinct phases of a warfighting operation (build-up, ground combat, post-combat) to assist in predicting DNBI incidence during warfighting deployments. Inpatient healthcare records of soldiers deployed to the Persian Gulf War who were admitted with DNBI diagnoses were analyzed. DNBI admission rates for the three phases of the operation were examined and compared to rates for US Army Forces Command (FORSCOM) posts in the US. DNBI admission rates among the phases were distinctly different. The operation's overall rate and 95th percentile daily rate were less than the FORSCOM FY 1990 annual rate. The level of combat must be considered. The traditional use of average or overall rates should be abandoned when forecasting DNBI rates. Medical support projections should use separate 95th percentile DNBI admission rates for each of the phases.

Novick AN - 17936231; 5877899 AB - The F1 capsule of Yersinia pestis, encoded by the 100kb plasmid pFra, is often assumed to be essential for full virulence of Y. pestis. However, virulent strains of Y. pestis that are F1 super(-) and either pFra super(+) or pFra super(-) have been reported. To assess the role of pFra-encoded factors in virulence, mutants in pFra with insertions of the defective transposing bacteriophage Mu dl(Ap lac) were obtained, by using the wild type (wt) and the pLcr-cured derivative of strain C092. Mutants that exhibited temperature regulation of lactose fermentation and retarded electrophoretic mobility of pFra were selected. A total of 15 insertion mutants were isolated in the wt strain (12 of which had a single insertion in the genome, in pFra); and 24 mutants in the isogenic pLcr super(-) derivative. Four of the pLcr super(+) mutants, and none of the pLcr super(-) mutants, were F1 super(-). All F1 super(-) mutants were decreased in virulence for mice compared to the wt parent; and five of the F1 super(+) mutants also were significantly attenuated in mice. Fusion end-joints of insert DNA were cloned into Escherichia coli by using pMLB524, a vector for rescuing operon fusions of lacZ. Recombinants were obtained which contained pFra inserts ranging from 2kb to approximately 36kb, and the insertions occurred at several sites on pFra. All of the four F1 super(-) mutants tested mapped within the F1 capsule operon (caf1). The remaining five attenuated mutants sequenced were F1 super(+) and mapped outside of but near the operon. Sequencing and complete analysis of the pFra insertions mutants could facilitate identification of new potential virulence factors.

Fifty participants were enrolled in the study, and data for 5 individuals were excluded from analysis. Thirty-four men and 11 women completed the study. Participants were given foot orthoses and instructed in activity modification for 3 weeks. A 50% reduction in pain was considered a success. Likelihood ratios (LRs) were computed to determine which examination findings were most predictive of success. The best predictors of improvement were forefoot valgus alignment of greater than or equal to 2 degrees (+LR=4.0, 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.7-21.9), great toe extension of less than or equal to 78 degrees (+LR=4.0, 95% CI=0.7-21.9), and navicular drop of less than or equal to 3 mm (+LR=2.4, 95% CI=1.3-4.3). The results suggest that patients with PFPS who have forefoot valgus alignment of greater than or equal to 2 degrees, passive great toe extension of less than or equal to 78 degrees, or navicular drop of less than or equal to 3 mm are most likely to respond favorably to initial intervention with an off-the-shelf foot orthosis and instruction in activity modification.

Before the 18th century, foot soldiers seldom carried more than 15 kg while on the march, but loads have progressively risen since then. This load increase is presumably due to the weight of weapons and equipment that incorporate new technologies to increase protection, firepower, communications, and mobility. Research shows that locating the load center of mass as close as possible to the body center of mass results in the lowest energy cost and tends to keep the body in an upright position similar to unloaded walking. Loads carried on other parts of the body result in higher energy expenditures: each kilogram added to the foot increases energy expenditure 7% to 10%; each kilogram added to the thigh increases energy expenditure 4%. Hip belts on rucksacks should be used whenever possible as they reduce pressure on the shoulders and increase comfort. Low or mid-back load placement might be preferable on uneven terrain but high load placement may be best for even terrain. In some tactical situations, combat load carts can be used, and these can considerably reduce energy expenditure and improve performance. Physical training that includes aerobic exercise, resistance training targeted at specific muscle groups, and regular road marching can considerably improve road marching speed and efficiency. The energy cost of walking with backpack loads increases progressively with increases in weight carried, body mass, walking speed, or grade; type of terrain also influences energy cost. Predictive equations have been developed, but these may not be accurate for prolonged load carriage. Common injuries associated with prolonged load carriage include foot blisters, stress fractures, back strains, metatarsalgia, rucksack palsy, and knee pain. Load carriage can be facilitated by lightening loads, improving load distribution, optimizing load-carriage equipment, and taking preventive action to reduce the incidence of injury.

There has been considerable media attention and fear generated by outbreaks of filoviruses because they can cause a severe viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF) syndrome that has a rapid onset and high mortality. Although they are not naturally transmitted by aerosol, they are highly infectious as respirable particles under laboratory conditions. For these and other reasons, filoviruses are classified as category A biological weapons. However, there is very little data from animal studies with aerosolized filoviruses. Animal models of filovirus exposure are not well characterized, and there are discrepancies between these models and what has been observed in human outbreaks. Building on published results from aerosol studies, as well as a review of the history, epidemiology, and disease course of naturally occurring outbreaks, we offer an aerobiologist's perspective on the threat posed by aerosolized filoviruses.

Illness surveillance data archived from the U.S. offensive biological warfare program (from 1943 to 1969) were reviewed to assess the impact of safety measures on disease prevention (including biosafety cabinets [BSCs]) before and after vaccine availability. Most laboratory-acquired infections from agents with higher infective doses (e.g., anthrax, glanders, and plague) were prevented with personal protective measures and safety training alone. Safety measures (including BSCs) without vaccination failed to sufficiently prevent illness from agents with lower infective doses in this high-risk research setting. Infections continued with tularemia (average 15/year), Venezuelan equine encephalitis (1.9/year), and Q fever (3.4/year) but decreased dramatically once vaccinations became available (average of 1, 0.6, and 0 infections per year, respectively). While laboratory-acquired infections are not expected to occur frequently in the current lower-risk biodefense research setting because of further improvements in biosafety equipment and changes in biosafety policies, the data help to define the inherent risks of working with the specific agents of bioterrorism. The data support the idea that research with these agents should be restricted to laboratories with experience in handling highly hazardous agents and where appropriate safety training and precautions can be implemented.

Either undermeasurement or overmeasurement errors may occur at critical times when the snow cover transitions from winter to spring conditions and at the start of periods of rapid snowmelt. Parameters to determine the onset of SWE sensor undermeasurement errors are defined by a negative rate of change for SWE, a negative rate of change for snow density, and an increasing snow depth. For the onset of overmeasurement errors, the rate of change for SWE will be positive while snow depth decreases and the snow density rate of change exceeds a defined positive threshold. When the snow temperature and density error conditions and the three under-or over-measurement error-indicator parameters are satisfied at the same time, an SWE sensor error has started. Real-time correction of the errors is done by multiplying the average snow cover density, set at the start of the error, with the snow depth. Once the error event ends, when the corrected SWE and SWE sensor data intersect, SWE is again determined from SWE sensor measurements. SWE sensor errors were accurately detected and corrected for five different sensors located in maritime and intermountain climatic zones when high-quality SWE sensor, snow or air temperature, and snow depth measurements were available. Implementation of the error detection and correction method requires simultaneous measurements of SWE, snow depth, and snow temperature near the ground. Improved error correction can be achieved by incorporating precipitation data and estimates of snow density due to retained rain or snow melt.

We analyzed point measurements of Ks along independent transects at sampling intervals of 25, 10, 1 and 0.25 m. The field area is a tropical rainforest catena (i.e. toposequence) characterized by systematic downslope changes in soil properties including color (red to yellow), mineralogy (kaolinite-illite to kaolinite) and texture (sandy clay to sand). Independent transects spanning the entire catena at lag intervals of 25 and 10 m reveal little to no spatial patterns in Ks; i.e. scatter plots are noisy and lack apparent spatial trends, and semivariograms suggest little to no autocorrelation in Ks. As sampling precision is increased (h=1 and 0.25 m), spatial patterns emerge in Ks for the downslope areas, in which distinctive hydraulic boundaries in Ks correlate with relatively small-scale, topography-controlled soils with coarse textures (=>80% sand). For these areas, semivariograms of Ks and those of %sand and %clay exhibit similar spatial structure characterized by small nugget variances and large ranges, and nugget variance is reduced as sampling precision increases from 1 to 0.25 m. In the upslope, clay-rich locations along this toposequence, Ks exhibits few spatial patterns, irrespective of sampling scale. For these locations, scatter plots are noisy without apparent spatial trends, and semivariograms show almost complete nugget variance, suggesting little to no correlation in this hydraulic parameter at any scale. This study suggests that in the absence of coarse textures (=>80% sand), there is little predictability in Ks, even at sampling intervals of 0.25 m. We believe this lack of spatial structure is due to a predominance of small-scale processes such as biological activity that largely control Ks in this forested setting.

A deficiency in sand supplied to the littoral system has resulted in the loss of the protective beach strand, resulting in direct wave attack at the toe of the bluffs (USACOE-LAD 1986). This causes undermining of the bluffs as the toe is gradually eroded landward of the drip line. Eventually the undermining reaches a critical depth and large blocks of the upper bluff collapse. This occurs episodically, in large increments, followed by long periods of little or no bluff retreat. Past attempts to assess bluff retreat for use in planning and engineering depended on the average erosion rate over a project design life, generated using existing deterministic synoptic summaries (USACOE - LAD 1996). An annualized retreat rate essentially accounts for the longterm average effect of various episodic failures combined with periods of little or no erosion activity. As a result, it tends to yield a misleading picture of coastal cliff erosion and the resulting damage to bluff-top development. In addition, it does not characterize the mechanism whereby wave attack at the bluff base undermines the bluff face and causes a block failure at the top, often months after the wave attack has occurred. Therefore, a numerical model was developed which includes a "Monte Carlo" simulation technique to characterize the blufftop retreat in response to the bluff toe erosion. A database of historical upper bluff failures was used to generate a "pseudo" probability density function of upper bluff failure sizes in response to notch erosion. This approach obviates the need for detailed geological analysis of the internal bluff structure and composition and other factors affecting upper bluff block failure size and timing. The average annual retreat rate predicted by the model compares reasonably well with average rates computed using other methods, but the statistical approach used in this methodology provides a more accurate and useful way of capturing and modeling the uncertainty inherent in natural, non-linear systems, and provides planners and engineers with a more sophisticated risk management tool. However, extensive site specific data on wave energy and erosion are required for accurate model calibration, to account for localized differences in bluff geology, hydrology, and other factors that influence when and where collapses occur.

Capsule by itself was protective against lethal challenge with a toxin super(-), capsule super(+) Bacillus anthracis strain. Conjugation of capsule to bovine serum albumin resulted in enhanced IgG anti- capsule antibodies measured by ELISA, but completely abrogated the protection. The protective unconjugated capsule vaccine elicited significantly higher IgM titers and opsonic activity than did the non-protective capsule conjugate. When tested against a fully virulent toxin super(+), capsule super(+) B. anthracis strain, neither capsule nor protective antigen alone was protective. However, the combination of the two protected against a lethal challenge. These results suggest that capsule may enhance the protection afforded by protective antigen vaccines against anthrax if opsonizing antibodies are produced. Surprisingly, some protection was also observed when protective antigen was conjugated to itself.

Paper No. 3Q5K05 N1 - Last updated - 2010-05-03 ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Delayed secondary phase of peri-infarct depolarizations after focal cerebral ischemia: relation to infarct growth and neuroprotection. AN - 71472792; 14684862 AB - In focal cerebral ischemia, peri-infarct depolarizations (PIDs) cause an expansion of core-infarcted tissue into adjacent penumbral regions of reversible injury and have been shown to occur through 6 hr after injury. However, infarct maturation proceeds through 24 hr. Therefore, we studied PID occurrence through 72 hr after both transient and permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo) via continuous DC recordings in nonanesthetized rats. PIDs occurred an average 13 times before reperfusion at 2 hr and then ceased for an average approximately 8 hr. After this quiescent period, PID activity re-emerged in a secondary phase, which reached peak incidence at 13 hr and consisted of a mean 52 PIDs over 2-24 hr. This phase corresponded to the period of infarct maturation; rates of infarct growth through 24 hr coincided with changes in PID frequency and peaked at 13 hr. In permanent MCAo, PIDs also occurred in a biphasic pattern with a mean of 78 events over 2-24 hr. Parameters of secondary phase PID incidence correlated with infarct volumes in transient and permanent ischemia models. The role of secondary phase PIDs in infarct development was further investigated in transient MCAo by treating rats with a high-affinity NMDA receptor antagonist at 8 hr after injury, which reduced post-treatment PID incidence by 57% and provided 37% neuroprotection. Topographic mapping with multielectrode recordings revealed multiple sources of PID initiation and patterns of propagation. These results suggest that PIDs contribute to the recruitment of penumbral tissue into the infarct core even after the restoration of blood flow and throughout the period of infarct maturation.

AN - 71512506; 14719633 AB - Military training exercises are conducted routinely in the Mojave Desert. To determine whether assignment in this desert environment increases risk of respiratory illnesses, hospitalization rates were compared between two matched cohorts of soldiers during three intervals of follow-up during a 10-year surveillance period. The exposed cohort (N = 21,543) included all soldiers who were ever assigned to the Mojave Desert during the surveillance period. The control cohort (N = 86,172) included soldiers matched on demographic characteristics who were never assigned to the Mojave Desert during the surveillance period. Three follow-up intervals ("before," "during," "after") were defined relative to times when exposed soldiers were assigned to the desert. Rates of respiratory hospitalizations were similar between the cohorts for the "before" and "during" intervals but were higher in the exposed cohort for the "after" interval (rate ratio, 1.30; 95% confidence interval, 1.07-1.59). This difference was largely attributable to excess pneumonia and influenza hospitalizations in the exposed cohort. Healthy, young adults may have increased susceptibility to respiratory infectious illnesses after prolonged exposures to desert environments.

AN - 71467449; 14674700 AB - Sodium cyanide (NaCN)-induced chemical hypoxia is known to increase intracellular free calcium concentration and reduce cell survival, but its effect on gene expression has not been studied. In this study, we designed primers to conduct a rapid and reliable assay for the expression of mRNA of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOs), tumor suppressor protein p53, Bcl-2, heat shock protein 70 (HSP-70), and beta-actin in human intestinal epithelial T84 cells and Jurkat T cells. NaCN-induced chemical hypoxia increased iNOs and HSP-70 mRNA in both types of cells, whereas p53 and Bcl-2 mRNA were singularly induced in T84 cells and Jurkat T cells, respectively. In both cell types, treatment of hypoxic cells with a reversible selective iNOs inhibitor, Now-nitro-L-arginine (LNNA), blocked iNOs, Bcl-2, and HSP-70 mRNA, but increased p53. The NaCN-induced hypoxia was also found to increase caspase-3 cellular activity in both cell types. Treatment with LNNA alone decreased the basal caspase-3 cellular activity. A prior treatment of LNNA significantly inhibited the NaCN-induced increase in the cellular activity of this apoptotic enzyme. This is the first report to show that NaCN-induced chemical hypoxia alters both stress-related gene expression and caspase-3 cellular activity and can be regulated by the iNOs inhibitor LNNA.

In this experiment, snow cover was manipulated to simulate the late development of snowpack and to induce soil freezing at sugar maple (Acer saccharum) and yellow birch (Betula alleghaniensis) stands at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest (HBEF) in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The objective of this manipulation was to elucidate the effects of soil freezing on the concentrations and fluxes of soil solution H+, Ca2+, Mg2+, K+, and Na+, as well as values of acid neutralizing capacity (ANC). Mild soil freezing events (soil temperatures never decreased below -5 degrees C) resulted in pronounced acidification of soil solutions, driven primarily by nitrification, in the forest floor of sugar maple stands during the growing season. This mobilization of NO-3 from the forest floor of maple stands was accompanied by the leaching of Ca2+ and Mg2+ in Oa horizon solutions. Responses of soil solution acid-base chemistry to soil freezing were not evident in yellow birch stands or in the Bs horizon of either vegetation type, emphasizing the importance of vegetation type and the mineral soil in determining the effects of climatic disturbance on drainage water chemistry and nutrient loss. These results suggest that models of soil biogeochemistry in temperate forest ecosystems should consider soil-freezing events when simulating the acid-base chemistry of soil solutions and the translocation of nutrient base cations between soil horizons.

A 65-MHz GPR pulse was transmitted into a 30-60-cm-thick surface waveguide of wet, organic silty to gravelly soil overlying a drier refracting layer of sand and gravel. Reflection profiles, trench stratigraphy, resistivity measurements, and sediment analysis were used to quantify the propagation medium and possible attenuation mechanisms. Highly dispersive model propagation occurred within the waveguide through 35 m of observation. The fastest phase velocity occurred at the waveguide cutoff frequency of 30 MHz, which was well received by 100-MHz antennas. This speed provides the refractive index of the lower layer, so the near-cutoff frequencies must match a lower layer refraction. A slower, lower frequency phase of the dispersed pulse occurred at about 60-70 MHz, with an average attenuation rate of about 0.4 dB/m. Similar events appear to have reflected back and forth along the waveguide. Modal theory for the average layer thickness shows all primary events to be different aspects of a TE (sub 1) mode, predicts the correct 30-70-MHz phase speeds and low-frequency cutoff phenomenon, but also predicts that the 60-70-MHz group speed should be slightly lower than observed. An Airy phase was apparently out of the bandwidth. Two-dimensional finite-difference time-domain modeling qualitatively simulates the main field results. After accounting for an inverse dependency of amplitude on the square of the range, the high resistivity of the surface layer accounts for the 0.4-dB/m attenuation rate for the 60-70-MHz phase of the pulse. However, erratic amplitudes, interface roughness, and the reflected packets indicate scattering. We conclude that permittivities can be well estimated from dispersive moveout profiles given an average surface layer thickness, and the wide bandwidth of GPR antennas allows the full dispersion to be seen. Attenuation rates appear to be derivable from the higher frequency part of our dispersive event, for which attenuation might be least affected by the waveguide dispersion.

Artificial bypassing mimics or preserves the pathways of sediment in the littoral zone and harmonizes the requirement for deepening navigation channels within the context of the natural sediment-sharing system of inlets and beaches. A range of techniques can be applied to perform bypassing. Customary on-demand channel dredging is not always the best solution because sediment shoaling does not necessarily follow a predictable schedule, potentially compromising navigation reliability between allowable dredging windows. If sediment can be directed to a location other than the channel, planning of dredge operations may be optimized and less expensive equipment feasible. A weir jetty system is one such solution. This paper presents progress in understanding of sediment bypassing through analytical prediction and takes a lessons-learned approach to design and modification of weir jetty bypassing systems. Results from recent physical model studies of spur jetties are also discussed with regard to their control on the nearshore current at coastal inlets and how spurs can be designed to alter sediment bypassing.

We are interested in identifying specific proteins that are altered upon sulfur mustard exposure. Keratins are particularly important for the structural integrity of skin, and several genetically inherited blistering diseases have been linked to mutations in keratin 5 and keratin 14. We examined whether sulfur mustard exposure alters keratin biochemistry in cultured human epidermal keratinocytes. Western blotting with specific monoclonal antibodies revealed the formation of stable high-molecular-weight 'aggregates' containing keratin 14 and/or keratin 5. These aggregates begin to form within 15 min after sulfur mustard exposure. These aggregates display a complex gel electrophoresis pattern between similar to 100 and similar to 200 kDa. Purification and analysis of these aggregates by one- and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry confirmed the presence of keratin 14 and keratin 5 and indicate that at least some of the aggregates are composed of keratin 14-keratin 14, keratin 14-keratin 5, or keratin 5-keratin 5 dimers. These studies demonstrate that sulfur mustard induces keratin aggregation in keratinocytes and support further investigation into the role of keratin aggregation in sulfur mustard-induced vesication.

The goal was to determine prevalence of C. trachomatis infection, percentage of asymptomatic infections, and risk factors for infection in a population of male college ROTC students. We conducted a prevalence survey of C. trachomatis infection and risk factors using urine ligase chain reaction and questionnaire. Participants were 1443 ROTC male college cadets at Ft. Lewis, Washington, from June to July 2001. Prevalence of C. trachomatis infection was 31 of 1252 (2.48%); 93.6% of the infections were asymptomatic. Black race, exposure to a partner with a prior sexually transmitted disease, and self-reported symptoms were significant risk factors. The prominence of asymptomatic infection in a male population with comparatively low prevalence suggests that risk factor rather than clinically based screening could be beneficial in this population.

In our preliminary investigation, we detected Borrelia sequences in 19 of 510 A. americanum adults and nymphs from Ft. A. P. Hill, Va. During the 2001 tick season, the flaB primers were used to test all A. americanum samples as they were received, and 29 of 2,358 A. americanum samples tested individually or in small pools were positive. PCRs with 2,146 A. americanum samples in 2002 yielded 26 more Borrelia- positive samples. The positive ticks in 2001 and 2002 were from Arkansas, Delaware, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. The last positive sample of the 2001 season was a pool of larvae. To further investigate larval infection, we collected and tested questing A. americanum larvae from Aberdeen Proving Ground, Md.; 4 of 33 pools (40 larvae per pool) were positive. Infection of unfed larvae provides evidence of the maintenance of B. lonestari by means of transovarial transmission. Sequence analysis revealed that the amplicons were identical to sequences of the B. lonestari flaB gene in GenBank. Despite the low prevalence of infection, the risk of B. lonestari transmission may be magnified because A. americanum is often abundant and aggressive, and many tick bite victims receive multiple bites.

At the same time, reliability methods have gained increasing prominence and are used to forecast life-cycle performance over many decades of structural life. Such reliability analyses need to be updated based on the results of inspections. Specifically targeted nondestructive evaluations are the preferred solution, but are not always available for every bridge. This paper examines how the visual inspection data provided from bridge management systems already in place can be used to update the reliability of a bridge. The limitations and necessary modifications to current practice are discussed. The superstructure of a Colorado highway bridge deteriorating due to corrosion is used as an example.

Isolated human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) and human epidermal keratinocytes (HEKs) have been used as in vitro models for determining SM-induced cytotoxicity. A recently developed colorimetric assay (the CellTiter 96 AQ sub(ueous) Non-radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay) was assessed using both of the in vitro models described above. Using 24- or 96-well microplates, reproducible (-10%) SM dose/response curves for both types of human cells were obtained using a spectrophotometric microplate reader set at 490 nm. After a 4-h incubation time, as many as 96 sample wells could be measured within 45 s using this commonly available equipment. Multiple plates of samples can be run immediately. This technique may facilitate cytotoxicity investigations of new candidate compounds for both prophylaxis of and therapy for SM intoxication.

The Phase 1 studies, conducted in 65 volunteers, were designed to select an attenuated vaccine candidate for each DENV serotype. No recipient of the DENV candidate vaccines sustained serious injury or required treatment. Three vaccine candidates were associated with transient idiosyncratic reactions in one volunteer each, resulting in their withdrawal from further clinical development. Increasing PDK cell passage of DENV-1, DENV-2, and DENV-3 candidate vaccines increased attenuation for volunteers, yet also decreased infectivity and immunogenicity. This effect was less clear for DENV-4 candidate vaccines following 15 and 20 PDK cell passages.

In general, these antimicrobial peptides exhibit selectivity for prokaryotes and minimize the problems of engendering microbial resistance. As an alternative method to search for more effective broad-spectrum peptide antimicrobials, investigators have developed peptide libraries by using synthetic combinatorial technology. A novel decapeptide, KKVVFKVKFK (KSL), has been identified that shows a broad range of antibacterial activity. The purpose of this study was to test the efficacy of this antimicrobial peptide in killing selected strains of oral pathogens and resident saliva bacteria collected from human subjects. Cytotoxic activity of KSL against mammalian cells and the structural features of this decapeptide were also investigated, the latter by using two-dimensional NMR in aqueous and DMSO solutions. MICs of KSL for the majority of oral bacteria tested in vitro ranged from 3 to 100 mu g ml super(-1). Minimal bactericidal concentrations of KSL were, in general, within one to two dilutions of the MICs. KSL exhibited an ED sub(99) (the dose at which 99% killing was observed after 15 min at 37 degree C) of 6.25 mu g ml super(-1) against selected strains of Lactobacillus salivarius, Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus gordonii and Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans. In addition, KSL damaged bacterial cell membranes and caused 1.05 log units reduction of viability counts of saliva bacteria. In vitro toxicity studies showed that KSL, at concentrations up to 1 mg ml super(-1), did not induce cell death or compromise the membrane integrity of human gingival fibroblasts. NMR studies suggest that KSL adopts an alpha -helical structure in DMSO solution, which mimics the polar aprotic membrane environment, whereas it remains unstructured in aqueous medium. This study shows that KSL may be a useful antimicrobial agent for inhibiting the growth of oral bacteria that are associated with carries development and early plaque formation.

Despite its established place in the risk assessment process, the background comparison exercise nevertheless continues to create a source of friction amongst parties with vested interests in a site's evaluation. Challenges to the background comparison may reveal an agency's hidden agenda or may demonstrate that essential background concepts are either not well understood or have been forgotten.

The model is based on the assumptions of idealized breach morphology and is intended to describe the growth of breaches prior to possible closure by longshore sediment transport. The two coupled, non-linear equations governing breach width and depth are solved analytically for special cases. The analytical solutions explicitly exhibit an exponential behavior in breach dimensions and reveal that the macroscale process of breach growth is controlled by seven variables: initial width and depth of the breach, equilibrium width and depth of the breach, width of the barrier island, and maximum or initial net sediment transport rates at the bottom and sides of the breach. The literature is reviewed to compile general properties of coastal breaches, and sensitivity testing shows the model to be compatible with those observations. The model is applied to simulate the 1980 breach at Moriches Inlet, New York, and reasonable agreement is found.

Despite their ecological and regulatory importance, little is known about such species at the genetic level. To begin understanding cellular and genetic responses of L. plumulosus to contaminants, we isolated several of their genes and developed quantitative assays to measure the effects of water exposures to 2, 4, 6-trinitrotoluene and phenanthrene on gene expression. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays demonstrated that the expression of the genes for actin and a retrotransposon, hopper, was dependent on the exposure and tissue concentrations of those chemicals. Our data suggests that exposure to the explosive 2, 4, 6-trinitrotoluene and phenanthrene may induce movement of hopper resulting in unexpected genotoxic results.

AN - 71321955; 14575876 AB - The acidic dipeptide N-acetylaspartylglutamate (NAAG) is the most prevalent peptide in the central nervous system. NAAG is a low potency agonist at the NMDA receptor, and hydrolysis of NAAG yields the more potent excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter glutamate. beta-NAAG is a competitive inhibitor of the NAAG hydrolyzing enzyme N-acetylated alpha-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAAG peptidase activity) or glutamate carboxypeptidase II, and may also act as a NAAG-mimetic at some of the sites of NAAG pharmacological activity. Since NAAG has been shown to have neuroprotective characteristics in a number of experimental preparations, it is the purpose of the present study to specifically evaluate the possible efficacy of NAAG and beta-NAAG against NMDA- and hypoxia-induced injury to spinal cord mixed neuronal and glial cell cultures. NAAG (500-1000 microM) protected against NMDA- or hypoxia-induced injuries to spinal cord cultures, and the nonhydrolyzable analog beta-NAAG (250-1000 microM) completely eliminated the loss of viability caused by either insult. Both peptides also attenuated NMDA-induced increases in intraneuronal Ca(2+). Nonspecific mGluR antagonists, pertussis toxin, a stable cAMP analog, and manipulation of NAAG peptidase activity did not by themselves alter cell damage and did not influence the neuroprotective effects of NAAG. NAAG was not protective against kainate- or AMPA-induced cellular injury, while beta-NAAG was partially neuroprotective against both insults. At 2 mM, NAAG and beta-NAAG reduced neuronal survival and increased intraneuronal Ca(2+); these effects were only marginally attenuated by dizocilpine and APV. The results indicate that NAAG and beta-NAAG protect against excitotoxic and hypoxic injury to spinal cord neurons, and do so predominantly by interactions with NMDA and not mGluR receptors.

AN - 71399516; 14630940 AB - The human Y-family DNA polymerases, Poliota, Poleta, and Polkappa, function in promoting replication through DNA lesions. However, because of their low fidelity, any involvement of these polymerases in DNA synthesis during base excision repair (BER) would be highly mutagenic. Mechanisms, therefore, must exist to exclude their participation in BER. Here, we show that although Poliota, Poleta, and Polkappa are all able to form a covalent Schiff base intermediate with the 5'-deoxyribose phosphate (5'-dRP) residue that results from the incision of DNA at an abasic site by an AP endonuclease, they all lack the ability for the subsequent catalytic removal of the 5'-dRP group. Instead, the covalent trapping of these polymerases by the 5'-dRP residue inhibits their DNA synthetic activity during BER. The unprecedented ability of these polymerases for robust Schiff base formation without the release of the 5'-dRP product provides a means of preventing their participation in the DNA synthetic step of BER, thereby avoiding the high incidence of mutagenesis and carcinogenesis that would otherwise occur.

AN - 71305549; 14580200 AB - The zinc-endopeptidase light chain of botulinum A neurotoxin undergoes autocatalytic fragmentation that is accelerated by the presence of the metal cofactor, zinc [Ahmed, S. A. et al. (2001) J. Protein Chem. 20, 221-231]. We show in this paper that >95% fragmented light chain obtained in the absence of added zinc retained 100% of its original catalytic activity against a SNAP-25-derived synthetic peptide substrate. In the presence of zinc chloride, when >95% of the light chain had undergone autocatalytic fragmentation, the preparation retained 35% of its original catalytic activity. On the other hand, in the presence of glycerol, the light chain did not display autocatalysis and retained 100% of the original activity. These results suggest that the activity loss by incubation with zinc was not a direct consequence of autocatalysis and that the environment of the active site was not affected significantly by the fragmentation. The optimum pH 4.2-4.6 for autocatalysis was different than that (pH 7.3) for intrinsic catalytic activity. Inhibition of autocatalysis at low pH by a competitive inhibitor of catalytic activity rules out the presence of a contaminating protease but suggests a rate-limiting step of low pH-induced conformational change suitable for autocatalysis. Our results of LC concentration dependence of the fragmentation reaction indicate that the autocatalysis occurs by both intramolecular and intermolecular mechanisms.

The purpose of this study was a proof-of-concept to determine whether voice therapy can be delivered effectively remotely. Treatment outcomes were evaluated for a vocal rehabilitation protocol delivered under 2 conditions: with the patient & clinician interacting within the same room (conventional group) & with the patient & clinician in separate rooms, interacting in real time via a hard-wired video camera & monitor (video teleconference group). Seventy-two patients with voice disorders served as participants. Based on evaluation by otolaryngologists, 31 participants were diagnosed with vocal nodules, 29 were diagnosed with edema, 9 were diagnosed with unilateral vocal fold paralysis, & 3 presented with vocal hyperfunction with no laryngeal pathology. Fifty-one participants (71%) completed the vocal rehabilitation protocol. Outcome measures included perceptual judgments of voice quality, acoustic analyses of voice, patient satisfaction ratings, & fiber-optic laryngoscopy. There were no differences in outcome measures between the conventional group & the remote video teleconference group. Participants in both groups showed positive changes on all outcome measures after completing the vocal rehabilitation protocol. Reasons for participants discontinuing therapy prematurely provided support for the telehealth model of service delivery.

AN - 71511062; 14674794 AB - This study assessed the effect of respirator speech device size on speech intelligibility and the impact of background noise on respirator communications effectiveness. Thirty-five subjects completed modified rhyme test (MRT) speech intelligibility testing procedures with and without a respirator under background noises of 40, 60, and 80 dBA. Respirator wear conditions included the use of one unmodified and three mechanical speech diaphragms modified to reduce the surface area of the vibrating inner membrane available for sound transmission. Average MRT scores decreased linearly as background noise levels increased for all conditions. Lower MRT scores were observed for all respirator speech diaphragm conditions compared to the nonrespirator condition within each noise category. Average MRT scores differed significantly between the unmodified speech diaphragm and one with a 70% reduced surface area with a 40-dBA background noise. However, MRT scores were similar between the modified and unmodified diaphragms at both the 60- and 80-dBA noise levels. These findings provide evidence that alternate designs of mechanical-type respirator speech devices can be achieved without further degradation of speech sound transmission.

AN - 71474343; 14680993 AB - This manuscript describes the overview presented at the 23rd Annual Meeting of the American College of Toxicology in 2002. Although it is recognized that weapons of mass destruction that can be used against our military and civilian populations include chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) agents, this overview is limited primarily to chemical and biological (CB) agents. The issues of CB terrorism are discussed in terms of When, What, How, and Who. The US Army has been providing chemical and biological solutions since 1917, and has since 1996 applied these solutions to homeland defense and domestic preparedness. The use of chemical and biological agents as terrorist weapons both in the United States and elsewhere in the world is reviewed. The CB threat spectrum is presented, as is the further categorization of biological threat agents by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In addition, the CB agents considered to be a potential threat to our water supply are also presented. These are agents that are water soluble, stable, and resistant to water treatment and/or disinfection. The overview concludes with the chronological accomplishments of ECBC since 1917.

AN - 71470177; 14682440 AB - Recent molecular studies show that the absence of estrogen receptor (ER) alpha gene expression in breast cancer is associated with methylation of the CpG island located in the 5' region and the first exon of the ER alpha gene. Because CpG island methylation is an early event in carcinogenesis and because a methyl-deficient diet may lead to abnormal DNA methylation including CpG island methylation, we hypothesized that a methyl-deficient diet is more likely to be associated with breast cancer with methylated ER alpha gene CpG islands. This study aimed to test this hypothesis in African-American women using a case-control design. Cases were 304 African-American women pathologically diagnosed with breast cancer during 1995-1998 who lived in three Tennessee counties. Controls were 305 African-American women without breast cancer, who were selected through random-digit dialing and frequency matched to cases by 5-year age range and county of residence. Information on dietary intake and other risk factors was collected through telephone interviews. Dietary methyl-components were defined based on folate and methionine intakes and alcohol consumption. Tumor tissue samples were collected for measuring methylation status of the ER alpha gene. Our results showed that the odds ratio (OR) estimates for lower dietary folate intake were 2.0 (95% confidence interval, CI: 0.8-4.8) for cases with a methylated ER alpha gene, 0.6 (95% CI: 0.3-1.5) for cases with an unmethylated ER alpha gene, and 1.6 (95% CI: 0.7-3.8) for cases with unknown methylation status (presumably including cases with both methylated and un-methylated genes). However, low methionine intake appeared more likely to be associated with tumors with unknown methylation status and high level of alcohol consumption seemed more likely to be related to tumors with un-methylated genes. These results did not show a pattern consistent with the study hypothesis that methyl-deficient diets are more likely related to breast cancer with a methylated ER gene.

AN - 71381343; 14622273 AB - E2020 (R,S)-1-benzyl-4-[(5,6-dimethoxy-1-indanon)-2-yl]methyl)piperidine hydrochloride is a piperidine-based acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor that was approved for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease in the United States. Structure-activity studies of this class of inhibitors have indicated that both the benzoyl containing functionality and the N-benzylpiperidine moiety are the key features for binding and inhibition of AChE. In the present study, the interaction of E2020 with cholinesterases (ChEs) with known sequence differences, was examined in more detail by measuring the inhibition constants with Torpedo AChE, fetal bovine serum AChE, human butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), and equine BChE. The basis for particular residues conferring selectivity was then confirmed by using site-specific mutants of the implicated residue in two template enzymes. Differences in the reactivity of E2020 toward AChE and BChE (200- to 400-fold) show that residues at the peripheral anionic site such as Asp74(72), Tyr72(70), Tyr124(121), and Trp286(279) in mammalian AChE may be important in the binding of E2020 to AChE. Site-directed mutagenesis studies using mouse AChE showed that these residues contribute to the stabilization energy for the AChE-E2020 complex. However, replacement of Ala277(Trp279) with Trp in human BChE does not affect the binding of E2020 to BChE. Molecular modeling studies suggest that E2020 interacts with the active-site and the peripheral anionic site in AChE, but in the case of BChE, as the gorge is larger, E2020 cannot simultaneously interact at both sites. The observation that the KI value for mutant AChE in which Ala replaced Trp286 is similar to that for wild-type BChE, further confirms our hypothesis.

AN - 71315065; 14585988 AB - DNA polymerase eta (Poleta) catalyzes the efficient and accurate synthesis of DNA opposite cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers, and inactivation of Poleta in humans causes the cancer-prone syndrome, the variant form of xeroderma pigmentosum. Pre-steady-state kinetic studies of yeast Poleta have indicated that the low level of fidelity of this enzyme results from a poorly discriminating induced-fit mechanism. Here we examine the mechanistic basis of the low level of fidelity of human Poleta. Because the human and yeast enzymes behave similarly under steady-state conditions, we expected these enzymes to utilize similar mechanisms of nucleotide incorporation. Surprisingly, however, we find that human Poleta differs from the yeast enzyme in several important respects. The human enzyme has a 50-fold-faster rate of nucleotide incorporation than the yeast enzyme but binds the nucleotide with an approximately 50-fold-lower level of affinity. This lower level of binding affinity might provide a means of regulation whereby the human enzyme remains relatively inactive except when the cellular deoxynucleoside triphosphate concentrations are high, as may occur during DNA damage, thereby avoiding the mutagenic consequences arising from the inadvertent action of this enzyme during normal DNA replication.

AN - 71313729; 14571989 AB - During long-term viewing of a continuous light source, head and eye movements affect the distribution of energy deposited in the retina. Previous studies of eye movements during a fixation task provided data used for revising the safety limits for long-term viewing of such sources. These studies have been continued to determine the effect of source brightness on the nature of fixational eye movements. Volunteers fixated for 50 s on a HeNe laser (lambda = 632.8 nm) masked by a small aperture to produce a target subtending approximately 0.03 mrad in the visual field. The source was attenuated to yield corneal irradiance values in the range 0.6 pW cm(-2) to 6 microW cm(-2). Eye movements were recorded using a Dual Purkinje Image Eyetracker. The data were characterized by fixation ellipses that represent areas of the retina in which the image of the spot was located 68% of the time of each trial. Significant variation across subjects in the tightness of fixation was observed. Over the eight orders of magnitude of source brightness used in this experiment (10(-13) to 10(-6) W cm(-2)), no subject showed more than roughly a factor of two variation in the area of the fixation ellipse. No statistically significant trend in tightness of fixation as a function of source brightness was observed. There was no loss of ability to fixate, nor any drive to aversion, at the higher source intensities.

AN - 71283071; 14568396 AB - Recent advances in the description of aqueous dissolution rates for explosive compounds enhance the ability to describe these compounds as a contaminant source term and to model the behavior of these compounds in a field environment. The objective of this study is to make predictions concerning the persistence of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) and octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine (HMX) in solid form both as individual explosive compounds and components of octol, and the resultant concentrations of explosives in water as a result of dissolution using three exploratory modeling approaches. The selection of dissolution model and rate greatly affect not only the predicted persistence of explosive compound sources but also their resulting concentrations in solution. This study identifies the wide range in possible predictions using existing information and these modeling approaches to highlight the need for further research to ensure that risk assessment, remediation and predicted fate and transport are appropriately presented and interpreted.

AN - 71282464; 12955387 AB - Delayed cell death following ischemic brain injury has been linked to alterations in gene expression. In this study we have evaluated the upregulation of several genes associated with delayed cell death (c-fos, bax, and bcl-2) during the initial 24 h of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo) in the rat and the effects of postinjury treatment with the NR2B subunit specific NMDA receptor antagonist CGX-1007 (Conantokin-G, Con-G). C-fos mRNA levels peaked at 1 h postinjury in both cortical and subcortical ischemic brain regions (30-fold increase), remained elevated at 4 h and returned to within normal, preinjury levels 24 h postinjury. The increase in mRNA levels correlated to increased protein expression in the entire ipsilateral hemisphere at 1 h. Regions of necrosis at 4 h were void of C-Fos immunoreactivity with continued upregulation in surrounding regions. At 24 h, loss of C-Fos staining was observed in the injured hemisphere except for sustained increases along the border of the infarct and in the cingulate cortex of vehicle treated rats. CGX-1007 treatment reduced c-fos expression throughout the infarct region by up to 50%. No significant differences were measured in either bcl-2 or bax mRNA expression between treatment groups. However, at 24 h postinjury CGX-1007 treatment was associated with an increase in Bcl-2 immunoreactivity that correlated to a reduction in DNA fragmentation. In conclusion, CGX-1007 effectively attenuated gene expression associated with delayed cell death as related to a neuroprotective relief of cerebral ischemia.

At many sites, the contrasts are very large, and the detection capability is relatively independent of the geologic background. Some sites, however, are predictably problematic, such as volcanic terrains (e.g., Maui and Kaho'olawe, HI, USA). Other sites that would not intuitively be predicted to pose detection problems are found to have localized high susceptibility zones with wavelengths and magnitudes that can significantly complicate UXO detection. Details of a site in Indiana (USA) are presented that illustrate order of magnitude variation of magnetic susceptibility over distances of 2-3 m. Magnetic susceptibility at the site correlates to topography and soil type. Magnetic power spectral density plots from magnetic surveys at selected areas at the Indiana site are compared to each other and to data from Maui, HI, and demonstrate the key issues in UXO detection with magnetometry. Magnetic susceptibility data from Kaho'olawe are used to illustrate the effects on electromagnetic induction surveys for UXO detection and discrimination. The phenomenological observations suggest approaches for magnetic and electromagnetic induction survey data processing to enhance anomaly detectability and model-based inversion.

We observed that IDPs are richest in both elements. All the MMs studied contain carbon, and all but the coarse-grained and 1 melted MM contained nitrogen. We also observed a correlation in the distribution of carbon and nitrogen, suggesting that they may be held in an organic material. The implications for astrobiology of these results are discussed, as small extraterrestrial particles could have contributed to the origin of life on Earth by delivering important quantities of these 2 bio-elements to the Earth's surface and their gas counterparts, CO (sub 2) and N (sub 2) , to the early atmosphere.

The model accommodates arbitrary stress path directions and includes three important elements: (1) development of a yield surface during interface shear; (2) a formulation for yield-inducing shear stiffness that is applicable to any stress path orientation; and (3) a formulation for unloading-reloading shear stiffness. The model was evaluated against the results of shear tests performed at the interface between three different types of sand and a concrete surface under a variety of stress paths. Comparisons between measured and calculated interface response indicate that the model provides accurate estimates of the response of sand-to-concrete interfaces.

Our studies of the glacial history and interglacial climate of Glacier Bay in southeast Alaska indicate that past rates of ice margin advance were highly variable, including periods when ice advanced at rates equivalent to those during a rapid recession. We infer rates of advance during the Holocene from radiocarbon dates of tree stumps that were overridden as ice moved down-fjord. We have sampled over 100 stumps rooted in growth position, and dated their outer rings, which mark the death of the tree, using the AMS technique. In addition, the ages of about 100 logs in glacial deposits of moraines adjacent to the fjords also record approximate ice marginal positions. Our data cover the advance of ice from accumulation areas in the western Fairweather Range and eastern Takhinsha Range into lower Glacier Bay during four apparently distinct periods: approximately 9.5 to 6.0 K radiocarbon years BP, approximately 4.4 to 3.0 Kyr BP, approximately 2.4 to 2.0 Kyr BP, and approximately 1.6 to 1.2 Kyr BP. Asynchronous ice advance and retreat in the eastern and western source areas as well as advance during periods characterized globally as warming were identified. A late stage, possibly rapid ice advance near the entrance to Glacier Bay may have taken place about 600 yrs BP. Although our data are preliminary and the reasons are unknown, there is a clear indication that a tidewater ice margin can advance rapidly into fjords and that in Glacier Bay, climatically asynchronous advances were characteristic of the Holocene.

Assessed were 14 to 26 items, which reflect stream (st.) geometry & are used in mgt. decision. Average (av.) bankfull (bkf.) width (wd.) for 12 st. reaches varied from 118 ft. on Walla Walla Ri. to 44 ft. on Pattit Cr. South Touchet, Wolf Fk, Robinson Cr., Lower North Fk., Upper Touchet & Lower Touchet had av. bkf. wd. of 77, 70, 60, 59, 73, 69 ft. respectively. Streams were mostly C4 & pool/riffle with many reaches in stage II and III of CEM. Downcutting and widening has resulted in many reaches of mixed C4, F4, C1, F1, degraded C4, and occas. C4/D4 channels. The av. dist. between pools for the 13 st. av. 273 ft. but varies by locat., & LWD, which is locally limiting. Upper Touchet & Wolf Fk. have 277 & 225 ft. respect. between pools, vs. a portion of Walla Walla Ri. with 457 ft. between pools. In contrast, Upper Dry Cr, & Pattit Cr. had 135 & 155 ft. respect. between pools. The st. av. of 22.1 pools/mile, but the range was 11.6 to 39.1. The av. freq. of pools varied from 2.7 to 6.3 bkf. wd. on 12 st., and is locally limiting. The av. pieces of LWD/mile varied from 5.5 to 15.2 pieces/mile on 11 st. Some LWD variation is reflected in % of streambank er. and bkf. wd. Erosion of both streambanks was evaluated & was site specific. Robinson Fk. had a riparian quality of 6.2 (1-10 with 10 worst). However the er. was only 10.8% assoc. with an av. bkf. wd. of 45 feet. In contrast Wolf Fork with higher riparian qual. of 3.8 also had high er. of 33.0%, assoc, with an av. bkf. wd. of 70 ft. Channel straightening has increased streambank er., st. temp., sed. yield, & sed. intrusion into spawning gravels, and is limiting spawning & rearing. We made an evaluation of downcutting to bedrock on 49.2 miles on 4 streams. Eleven miles of streams (26%) were downcut with Wolf Fk. being the highest (37%). There are numerous migrating headcuts & hanging channels indicating a regional problem. Past straightening on the Walla Walla River to develop agricultural land, and perceived flood control, may be a major cause of upstream headcut migration. Reaches downcut at or near bedrock reflect the limiting of habitat for spawning, or rearing.

We surveyed for the new groundwater well placement in four areas located around different districts. Each area has a different index, such as object area, geology and geographical status. Digital fracture mapping was available, but no other way was possible because of laying facilities under the ground. To understand fracture system for underground reservoir, structurally classified lineaments from landsat images of IKONOS (1m) overlapped on digital topographic map. Digital fracture mapping (1:5,000) using GPS (resolution: about 15cm and 1m) was based on denuding structural episode and fracture grade for the object area. To understand horizontal and vertical fracture geometry, we used programs to lay structural elements accurately on a cross section. Multi-trend cross sections transferred to fence diagram. Finally, fence diagram induced to 3-D block diagram. Area-H has the largest surface with airfield and consists of Proterozoic paragneiss (ca. 2.0 Ga.) and Jurassic granitoids (ca. 180 Ma.). NE shearing and superposed folds formed a curved triangular shadow zone. It revealed that a massive granite plug filled up the zone and that its role was a vertical aquifer. We found fractured aquifers along the alternated boundary between the gneiss and the granitoids and seven well sites on triple junctions of fractures within the area-H. Areas C and GO consist of the Proterozoic basement. Two areas have too small surface to investigate new well placement. However, the junction point of three fractures of area-C provided an aquifer at the highest mountain slope and two well sites of 55GPM and 70GPM. Area-GO is located on the west limb of NS synclinal fold. The fold caused flexural brittle fault of N20E. Combination with fold and fault provided three wells. Area-S is composed of Jurassic granite with a lot of pegmatite or quartz veins and acidic dikes. Those fracture zones filled by dikes or veins were barren of groundwater. It revealed that triple junction of fractures, geologic boundary, dike swarm and shear fracture by fold and fault were good indicators for groundwater reservoir.

Mobility and spatial variability of 137Cs in soils is not well characterized, with the result that erosion calculations based on 137Cs may be difficult to interpret. We have compared the vertical, spatial, and solid-component distribution of major, minor and trace elements with the 137Cs activity at the Konza Prairie LTER site in northeastern Kansas. This grassland environment is an undisturbed analog for mid-continent grasslands that have been affected by human activities. We used a sequential extraction technique that employs progressively more aggressive chemicals to remove components from soil, defining five elemental reservoirs of different potential mobility (exchangeable, affiliated with carbonate mineral phases, affiliated with reducible phases, affiliated with organic matter, and affiliated with silicates and other resistates). We have found that Rb and nonradioactive Cs in the organic matter reservoir have depth profiles similar to the depth profile of 137Cs activity. Although most (95%) of the nonradioactive Cs and Rb in the soils is bound in the most immobile reservoir (silicates or other resistates), the part that is mobile is progressively enriched with depth below the land surface both in organic matter and in the easily exchangeable reservoir. Enrichment, especially in the case of organic matter, is relative, because organic matter content of the soil decreases with depth in the soil. Change with soil depth in the distribution of elements among the five reservoirs defined by the extraction technique may show the transformation of elements from one reservoir to another, with implications for transport or attenuation of radioactive elements.

Excluding dinitrogen, dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) is often the largest pool of fixed nitrogen in marine system but is isotopically the most difficult to measure. We used a dialysis technique (100 Da MW cutoff) to characterize the nitrogen isotope value of DON from samples taken at Station ALOHA (22 degrees 45'N, 158 degrees W) and EPREX-2 (16 degrees N, 150 degrees W) within the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre in October 1998, January 1999 and May 2000. DON concentrations are 4-7 mM in surface waters and decrease to ca. 2 mM at 800 m. This decrease is associated with an increase in 15N and is consistent with microbial assimilation and degradation of DON with depth. Samples collected in summer have lower isotope values (1.6-11 o/oo) than those collected in winter (8.3-14 o/oo). We discuss these trends in terms of seasonal changes in N-fixation and the potential for DON to be injected into deeper waters where it could provide a substrate for nitrification and subsequent N2O production. We suggest that the understanding of DON cycling has important implications for understanding ecosystem and global scale changes in marine environments.

A grid of GPR profiles was repeatedly collected on the actively developing ice-cored end moraine of Matanuska Glacier, Alaska, in July 2001, August and October 2002, and July 2003. These 4-D GPR data (3-D, through time) show the development of two different glaciological phenomena that have been hypothesized but rarely observed while forming. First, the formation of melt-out till--generated during the melting of debris-rich basal ice--is traced as a distinct georadar facies just above the buried-ice/sediment contact. The basal ice at Matanuska Glacier (roughly 25% sediment by volume) is covered by 1-5 meters of Type II debris flows generated from surrounding elevated till deposits; thus, the development of the melt-out till is not visible on the surface (and this is generally the case for similar melt-out till deposits at other glaciers). Second, an ongoing re-advance of Matanuska Glacier beginning late Spring 2002 generated folding and faulting of till deposits ("glaciotectonic deformation") in the region where earlier GPR data was collected. Analysis of subsequent data track the deformation and reveal a mechanism of glaciotectonic deformation in which the re-advancing active ice impacts stagnated buried ice in the ice-cored moraine complex causing it to thrust forward and deform overlying sediments (i.e., stress causing the glaciotectonic deformation is mostly transmitted in the buried ice, not the sediments). The development of melt-out till and glaciotectonic deformation are difficult to observe in situ through time in 3-D using traditional field techniques (surface mapping, trenching, etc.). Ground penetrating radar data thus provide important additional information for analyzing these glaciological features.

Rare volcaniclastic breccias and sandstones are also observed. Primary structures and contacts are generally obscured tectonically or by tropical weathering. Most rocks are altered, particularly volcanics and volcaniclastic sediments. Ultramafic rocks, evidence for an oceanic basement/lithospheric mantle, are absent. Mafic intrusive lithologies, the most pristine rocks, comprise less-deformed domains. Geologically, the igneous suite of the CRB is interpreted as a highly tectonized submarine lava flow-dike complex, associated with overlying and intercalated breccias and sediments, all of which were intruded by plutonic rocks. Rare oxidized scoria provides evidence for subaerial or shallow marine emplacement. Geological reconstruction envisages a mostly submarine volcanic island complex containing abundant intrusions (magma chambers) with high rates of effusion. Geochemically, the CRB rocks are tholeiities. Mobile element contents (Cs, Ba, Rb, K, Sr) are highly variable. In some rocks, immobile trace elements are enriched relative to N-MORB. There is no trace element evidence to suggest a subduction zone setting or a typical enriched oceanic island source for the complex as a whole. The CRB suite likely belongs to the Cretaceous to early Tertiary mafic complexes present across the Caribbean that have been accreted since Oligocene time to form the foundation of the Central American landbridge. Our data, together with that for other mafic terranes, support the existence of three mantle sources: (1) a dominant source transitional between MORB and E-MORB, (2) an OIB-type intraplate source, and, more rarely, (3) a primitive island arc source. The model of an origin from a developing oceanic plateau derived from the Galapagos Plume is supported by these data. Early arc rocks probably formed during and after accretion of this oceanic plateau.

The three primary valleys are anything but similar. The decreasing scale of glaciation over the Cenozoic and the wide range in valley threshold heights have combined to restrict areally the deposition of Quaternary sediment such that wide expanses of Tertiary glacial sediment remain exposed. The valleys feature a variety of primarily glacial bedrock morphologies across their 100 km length and 3 km of relief. We present a landsystems classification of the large-scale bedrock morphology and also contrasting stratigraphies for landscape evolution. We re-mapped much of the surficial geology in the valleys onto a consistently geolocated set of nested satellite images and aerial photographs. We compiled data on the surface and near-surface sediment and attached these to the pertinent sampling locations using Geographic Information Systems techniques. The sediments date to at least the mid-Miocene and their spatial patterns provide significant constraints on paleo-glacier dynamics. From this base, we developed a landsystem classification of the surficial glacial deposits. Additionally, we generated a composite lithostratigraphy, climate-stratigraphy, and chronostratigraphy for these sediments. We present these using both maps and sections which are available in GIS format. With the recent production of high-resolution DEMs of the valleys, significant advances in surficial sediment stratigraphy are expected. Subsurface stratigraphy in the Dry Valleys is the new frontier in glacial history. The near-heroic effort of the Dry Valleys Drilling Project showed the tremendous thicknesses of unconsolidated sediment in the valleys and their antiquity. Development of a stratigraphy for subsurface terrestrial glacial sediments has been expectedly difficult. However, ground-penetrating radar shows significant promise as a technique that couples the subsurface down to 50 m to surface geomorphology and adds spatial analysis to aid core interpretation.

We acquired these data to determine whether subsurface subsidence processes had continued at the collapse location after remediation, and to identify additional areas of potential collapse along this section of the roadway. A reflection correlating to the overburden and bedrock interface (above the mine workings) was consistently identified in raw field records, and our data processing and imaging targeted this high impedance contrast. Data quality was high enough to permit resolution of vertical offsets of 3-4 ft (0.91-1.2 m) and horizontal disruptions of about 20 ft (6.1 m) in the otherwise continuous bedrock horizon at two locations close to the previous collapse, suggesting a relatively high risk for future roadway failure in these areas. SH-wave data interpretations were supported by exploratory drilling results which confirmed that bedrock had subsided into underlying coal-mine workings at these two locations.

The Poleline Road study site, located about two km south of Eagle River, AK, is situated in a topographically low channelised kame deposit surrounded by higher relief kames to the west, north and east, and a large wetland to the south and southwest. The hydrogeology is characterized by glacial deposits of Quaternary age creating a system of interfingering units on an undulating weathered bedrock surface mantling underlying more competent bedrock. This investigation modeled the glacial deposits at the Poleline Road Disposal Area to provide a three-dimensional framework to assist with remediation decision-making. Site characterization data were acquired from near-surface seismic refraction tomography, DC resistivity surveys, ground penetrating radar profiles, deep borehole drilling, hydrological modeling, and water quality observations. These data were synthesized to develop a conceptual model of local geology in the context of regional record; the conceptual model was then used as the basis to develop a model of subsurface conditions by representing the data in three dimensions using EarthVision software.

An understanding of competition among various microbial communities is necessary to accurately predict the types of microorganisms that will flourish as well as those that will wane under differing environmental scenarios. In the past, soil microbiology was altered with brute-force techniques such as the saturation of a soil with a decontamination agent. An approach that is more feasible for large areas is to alter soil conditions to promote the desired microbial status or to effectively predict their fate in field conditions. Ultimately, the ability to accurately predict the occurrence of a dominant microbial community will be useful both for predicting the fate of pathogens in the environment and for fostering success in the bioremediation of soils and sediments. Bacillus globigii (BG) was selected to investigate the persistence and fate of nonindigenous bacteria released onto soils. We were able to differentiate BG from indigenous bacteria by combining culturing techniques with lipid-based validation. Enrichment on agar plates produced bright orange BG colonies that were clearly distinct from native microorganisms. These data suggest that there is either an initial loss in viability or an inability to recover 10-15% of the BG soon after inoculation onto the soil.

A total of 3,498 specimens representing 22 species were collected. Eighty-eight percent (3,089 of 3,498) of the animals were collected from a region in Chiangrai Province, which is commonly recognized as endemic for human scrub typhus. Blood and tissue samples from each animal were tested for the presence of Orientia tsutsugamushi, the etiologic agent of scrub typhus. The predominant species collected were Rattus rattus (53%, n = 1,863), R. losea (18%, n = 638), Bandicota indica (16%, n = 564), and R. exulans (4%, n = 146). Orientia tsutsugamushi was detected in 10 of the 22 species of mammals that included R. bukit (25% infected, 1 of 4), R. rattus (23%, 419 of 1,855), R. argentiventer (22%, 5 of 23), R. berdmorei (22%, 2 of 9), R. losea (13%, 82 of 638), B. indica (9%, 52 of 564), R. koratensis (8%, 1 of 12), B. savilei (3%, 1 of 30), R. exulans (1%, 2 of 146), and Tupaia glis (2%, 1 of 49). Infected animals were found in Chiangrai (18% infected, 563 of 3,084), Bangkok (11%, 1 of 9), Sukothai (3%, 1 of 30), and Nonthaburi (1%, 1 of 69) Provinces. The implications towards scrub typhus maintenance and transmission are discussed.

Exploiting the nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE), the intermolecular interactions between dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and lipid vesicles were investigated. The DMSO methyl proton signal varies with experimental mixing time suggesting the system behaves in a manner similar to that of a ligand weakly binding to a macromolecule.

I. Comparison of DMSO and d super(6)-DMSO: A DSC and IR Investigation AN - 19235182; 5807646 AB - The effect of deuterated solvents on the main phase transition (Tm) temperature of large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) of 1,2-dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) was examined by infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. There was no significant difference in the Tm, Delta H of the main transition, or cooperativity when water was replaced by deuterium oxide (D sub(2)O) in the preparation of the vesicles or when dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) was replaced by hexadeutero-dimethylsulfoxide (d super(6)-DMSO) in either D sub(2)O or water.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of 3 wk of IAE, in combination with rest and cycle training, on muscular performance at altitude. Six lowlanders (23 plus or minus 2 yr, 77 plus or minus 6 kg; means plus or minus SE) completed a cycle time trial and adductor pollicis endurance test at sea level and during a 30-h acute exposure to 4,300 m altitude equivalent (barometric pressure = 446 mmHg) once before (pre-IAE) and once after (post-IAE) a 3-wk period of IAE (4 h/day, 5 days/wk, 4,300 m). During each IAE, three subjects cycled for 45-60 min/day at 60%-70% of maximal O sub(2) uptake and three subjects rested. Cycle training during each IAE did not appear to affect muscular performance at altitude. Thus data from all six subjects were combined. Three weeks of IAE resulted in 1) a 21 plus or minus 6% improvement (P < 0.05) in cycle time-trial performance (min) from pre-IAE (32.8 plus or minus 3.7) to post-IAE (24.8 plus or minus 1.2), 2) a 63 plus or minus 26% improvement (P < 0.05) in adductor pollicis endurance (min) from pre-IAE (9.2 plus or minus 2.8) to post-IAE (14.8 plus or minus 4.2), and 3) a 10 plus or minus 4% increase (P < 0.05) in resting arterial O sub(2) saturation (%) from pre-IAE (82 plus or minus 2) to post-IAE (90 plus or minus 1). These improvements in muscular performance after IAE correlated strongly with increases in resting arterial O sub(2) saturation and were comparable to those reported previously after chronic altitude residence. IAE may therefore be used as an alternative to chronic altitude residence to facilitate improvements in muscular performance in athletes, soldiers, mountaineers, shift workers, and others that are deployed to altitude.

DNA repair is essential for maintaining genomic integrity. As we learn more about BER, a more complex mechanism emerges which supersedes the classical, simple pathway requiring only four enzymatic reactions.

A well-characterized subclass of these NKT cells expresses biased TCR and recognizes glycolipids such as alpha -galactoceramide, which is found naturally only in marine sponges and presented by the cell surface glycoprotein CD1d. However, a larger number of T cells present in human blood coexpress the NK marker CD56 and unbiased TCR and do not appear to require CD1 for antigen presentation. Observing high frequencies of CD4 and CD8 coreceptor expression in human CD56 super(+) T cells, we examined the potential role of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules in the activation of these cells. Activation of mononuclear cells with bacterial superantigens presented by MHC class II molecules resulted in increased frequency of CD56 super(+) T cells. Primarily, CD4 super(+) cells within the CD56 super(+)-T-cell population responded to the bacterial superantigens, and cytokine expression profiles were Th1-like. Further, increased levels of T cells expressing CD56 were observed in mononuclear cell cultures responding to a Staphylococcus aureus vaccine or tetanus toxoid. Collectively, our data suggest that a significant number of CD56 super(+) T cells recognize pathogen-associated ligands in association with MHC class II molecules.

To determine if these outcomes are dependent on the type and timing of physical rehabilitation and the particular outcome/endpoint being tested, we evaluated the effect of voluntary exercise exposure beginning 24 h after cerebral ischemic injury on behavioral, physiological, and histological outcomes. In an observer-blinded fashion, Sprague-Dawley (300 g) male rats were allocated to three groups [sham-exercise (SHAM), stroke-exercise (SE), stroke-no exercise (SNE)] before a 1-h right middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo). Running wheels were used for voluntary exercise. A significant difference was found at 1 week post-infarction between the SNE and SE, with SNE showing worst neurological scores and higher number of foot faults. In addition, nearly 20% more of the SE animals regained their pre-MCAo weight by 7 days. These differences were not as evident at 2 weeks. No differences were found between the three groups in the paw preference test, wheel activity, and body temperature, as well as between SNE and SE with regards to infarct or hemispheric volumes, body weight, synaptophysin staining, and electroencephalography (EEG) testing. Within-group comparisons showed no relationships between infarct volume and foot faults, neurological scores, or exercise level. We conclude that (1) unlike behavioral outcomes, physiological and histological outcomes may not be influenced by the introduction of voluntary exercise once lesion maturation has occurred at 24 h, and (2) repetitive outcomes testing can obscure findings in rat models of cerebral ischemic injury.

AN - 73621873; 12951190 AB - Effective treatments to improve survivability following exposure to the nerve agent soman have been established and are currently available. Unfortunately, electrographic brain seizures, neuroinflammation and brain cell death are still a potential problem even with treatment. In the present study we have characterized the time course of the central neuro-inflammatory gene response using quantitative real time-PCR (TaqMan). Male Sprague-Dawley rats were pre-treated with HI-6 (1-2-hydroxy-iminomethyl-1-pyridino-3-(4-carbamoyl-1-pyridino-2-oxapropane dichloride); 125 mg/kg, i.p.) and exposed 30 min later to 1.6 x LD(50) of soman (pinacolyl methyl-phosphonofluoridate, 180 microg/kg, s.c.) followed at 1 min by atropine methyl nitrate (4 mg/kg, i.m.). Initially, a significant and dramatic upregulation of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 mRNA levels was measured 2 h post-exposure followed at 6 h by upregulation of interleukin-1beta, interleukin-6, E-selectin, and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 with eventual resolution by 24-48 h. In conclusion, an acute and transient upregulation of the inflammatory gene response is activated following soman exposure that may be involved in the soman-induced brain injury process.

AN - 85363850; pmid-14587581 AB - A key element in determining point-to-point acoustic transmission within and above forests is modeling the variation (with height above ground) of the effective speed of sound. Effective speed of sound is readily derived from estimates of air temperature, relative humidity, and wind velocity. However, meteorological models for the forest canopy vary from comparatively simple to academically complex, requiring different amounts and numbers of inputs and computer capabilities. In addition, not all canopy profile models are suitable for acoustic applications. In this paper, a meteorological computer model for the forest canopy is developed to derive continuous profiles of effective sound speed from the ground to 3 h, where h is the height of the canopy. In turn, these profiles are used to make some initial approximations of short-range acoustic transmission loss through a uniform forest stand for typical clear sky, midday atmospheric conditions. Also, a radiative transfer and energy budget algorithm is incorporated into the model to obtain the appropriate heat source profile for any time of day. Thus, physics-based micrometeorology is coupled to acoustics for future applications of acoustic information in forest environments.

AN - 75723508; 14516298 AB - Malaria rapid diagnostic devices (MRDD) have been developed with the hope that they would offer accurate, reliable, rapid, cheap and easily available alternatives to traditional methods of malaria diagnosis. The results from early malaria rapid diagnostic studies were quite promising, especially for detecting Plasmodium falciparum at densities of more than 100-500 parasites/microl. Despite the introduction of these devices over a decade ago, only a few target antigens have been introduced. Of greater concern, these devices have shown limitations in sensitivity, ability to differentiate species and robustness under field conditions in the tropics. Recent trials have revealed wide variability in sensitivity both within and between products. We review the recent trials assessing MRDD use for the diagnosis of P. falciparum and non-P. falciparum infections in endemic and non-endemic countries and describe the various aspects of these devices which need further improvement. High quality, accurate, rapid and affordable diagnostic tools are urgently needed now that new antimalarial regimens, characterized by higher cost and increased toxicity, have been introduced more widely in response to emerging multi-drug resistance.

AN - 73637294; 12963063 AB - The lethal factor (LF) of anthrax toxin is the toxic component of the exotoxin (lethal toxin) secreted by toxic strains of Bacillus anthracis. The lethal factor is a zinc-dependent metalloprotease that specifically cleaves the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK) family of enzymes. We took advantage of this substrate specificity to develop an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) peptide cleavage assay. The ECL assay uses the stable ruthenium (Ru) metal chelate that, in the presence of tripropylamine, generates a light reaction triggered by the application of an electric potential. The Ru label is specifically incorporated into the C-terminal CYS residue of a synthetic peptide (23mer) containing the MAPKK2 cleavage sequence of LF. Streptavidin-coated paramagnetic beads were the solid phase and facilitated separation and characterization of the enzymatic reaction products based upon N-terminal biotinylation of the peptide substrate. Intact peptide bound via the biotin moiety generated high signal due to the Ru label, whereas binding of the cleaved peptide fragment devoid of Ru label reduced the ECL signal. The proposed assay provides a novel opportunity for the screening of potential therapeutics against anthrax.

AN - 71345493; 14584927 AB - A combinatorial random peptide display library expressed in E. coli was employed to identify short, linear peptide sequences that showed affinity for ricin and could be used as reagents for detection and identification of ricin. One peptide, P3, from a collection of four short peptides showed specific binding to ricin. The kinetic analysis of this peptide binding to the ricin showed lower equilibrium binding constants for the peptide P3 than monoclonal antibody. This is attributed due to both slower association and faster dissociation rates for the peptide P3. The random ricin peptide P3 binds to ricin with a KD of 1 microM versus the antibody's KD of 14 nM. This particular peptide memitope P3 against ricin showed specific binding to ricin without any significant cross-reactivity against other proteins such as bovine serum albumin (BSA), lysozyme and natural bacterial toxins such as Staphylococcal enterotoxins A and B. The results provided proof-of-principal that peptide memitopes are another choice of reagents due to ease in production to be used for the detection of highly toxic bio-threat or biowarfare agents such as ricin.

AN - 71284978; 14572099 AB - A new composite chitosan biosorbent was prepared by coating chitosan, a glucosamine biopolymer, onto ceramic alumina. The composite bioadsorbent was characterized by high-temperature pyrolysis, porosimetry, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Batch isothermal equilibrium and continuous column adsorption experiments were conducted at 25 degrees C to evaluate the biosorbent for the removal of hexavalent chromium from synthetic as well as field samples obtained from chrome plating facilities. The effect of pH, sulfate, and chloride ion on adsorption was also investigated. The biosorbent loaded with Cr(VI) was regenerated using 0.1 M sodium hydroxide solution. A comparison of the results of the present investigation with those reported in the literature showed that chitosan coated on alumina exhibits greater adsorption capacity for chromium(VI). Further, experimental equilibrium data were fitted to Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms, and values of the parameters of the isotherms are reported. The ultimate capacity obtained from the Langmuir model is 153.85 mg/g chitosan.

AN - 60555541; 200400176 AB - An examination of Russia's relationship with Asian nations contends that, in spite of its size & potential, Russia is in danger of becoming marginalized in Asia just as it has been in Europe. President Vladimir Putin's efforts to secure capital for oil & gas projects from Japan, South Korea, India, & the People's Republic of China have not met with much success even though Russia needs Asian help in order to become competitive. Internal problems that have prevented Russia from forming a partnership with China include geographic & financial restraints related to the development of oil & gas deposits in the Russian Far East; lack of significant economic or political reform; & Russia's dilapidated energy infrastructure. Errors made by the Russian government in its quest for economic assistance from Japan are discussed, along with Russia's willingness to sell arms to "rouge" states in spite of professed concern about proliferation threats. It is concluded that serious corrective measures are needed before Russia will be able to obtain foreign help for regional development. Meanwhile, US assistance offers the best chance for domestic improvement. J.

DSHA is based on geology and is attuned to physical reality in nature; PSHA is based on earthquake statistics and theory-guided numerical calculations. PSHA is less reliable than DSHA because PSHA is full of grave uncertainties that are created by the method itself; DSHA is more reliable because it deals principally with observed geological facts and is logical and transparent. DSHA and PSHA can be combined to advantage if one accepts that they are not equally valid. To combine them, one must recognize the weaknesses in PSHA and not use PSHA for design of critical structures. Only DSHA is suitable for that purpose. However, PSHA can be used for (1) preliminary evaluations, (2) for an operating basis earthquake (OBE), (3) for risk analysis when unrelated to design decisions for a critical project, and (4) for design of non-critical construction. Probabilistic methods that should never be used are (1) multiple expert opinion, (2) logic trees, and (3) deaggregation. No unrepentant seismic probabilist will agree to this diminishment of PSHA. Consequently, DSHA and PSHA will remain irreconcilable. The solution is for policymakers in regulatory agencies and owners of major engineering projects to determine which of the methods to use or in what combination. They need to (1) engage open-minded advisors, (2) ask hard questions, and (3) choose wisely. Meanwhile, Krinitzsky [Eng. Geol. 65 (2002) 1] provides procedures to obtain earthquake ground motions for engineering design that combine DSHA and PSHA according to the above criteria.

These rather linear-oriented bodies of saline water occur within parts of the Sandstone Aquifer in Lee, Hendry, and Glades counties and within parts of the Lower Tamiami Aquifer in Lee and Collier counties. Water managers have commonly attributed these features to anthropogenic causes, particularly pumping-induced saline-water intrusion or vertical movement of saline water through improperly constructed wells. New hydrogeologic evidence and the use of solute-transport groundwater modeling shows that these features are the result of hydraulic entrapment of relict saline water, left unflushed from the aquifer from the last high sea level stand. Modern discharge features, such as streams and wetland sloughs, occurring in lower topographic areas cause the potentiometric surface of the surficial aquifer and the underlying semi-confined aquifer to be locally depressed. These narrow, linear depressions in the potentiometric surface of the semi-confined aquifer cause the flow field to be constricted, thereby trapping saline water. In areas away from the surface topographic depressions, flow through the semi-confined aquifers in the horizontal plane has no constrictions and recharge is directed downward through the overlying confining beds. Beneath and adjacent to modern drainage features, flow through the semi-confined aquifers is constricted in the horizontal plane and reversed in the vertical plane with potential upward movement. The combination of the gradient change and flow constriction reduces the flushing rate and produces the saline-water distribution pattern observed in the field.

Gamma spectrometric analysis of (super 137) Cs and (super 210) Pb isotopes reveals sedimentation rates on the order of 1-6 cm/yr, both inside and outside of the western guide levee of the Atchafalaya Basin. All cores analyzed display a sharp transition upward from blue-gray clay-rich lacustrine and backswamp deposits to red muds and sands that occurred between approximately 1875 and approximately 1955, based on (super 137) Cs and (super 210) Pb geochronology. Earliest infilling appears to have occurred near the center of lacustrine basins, with later deposition along basin margins. This timing is coincident with rejuvenation of flow in the Red and Atchafalaya Rivers, after breakup of The Great Raft log jams (Tyson, 1981). Decreased sedimentation rates are observed outside the western guide levee after the period of levee construction, approximately 1940-1960 (Ruess, 1998). The results of this study are supported by previous research that rapid deposition occurred between 1930 to 1960, when much of this basin region underwent rapid infilling with sediments derived from the Red and Mississippi Rivers.

The Flats is an estuarine salt marsh bordered by bluffs with water groundwater influx from the edges as well as periodic tidal and river inundation and rain events. The uneven topography and presence of numerous craters results in pooled surface water and high perched water levels, inhibiting remediation of the contaminant. Pumps are used to drain contaminated areas to enhance remediation, but ditching is required to enhance the operation of the pumps and to drain areas not conducive to pumping. Mechanical ditching is not feasible because of the softness of the ground and the presence of unexploded ordnance. To create pump sumps and ditches, military explosives have been used. This report details the various sizes and configurations of these explosives (called demolitions), what has worked and what hasn't, and some of the lessons learned over the nine years of remedial activities at the Flats.

Post-exposure recovery periods ranged from 0 to 17 days. Leukocytes were imaged from each animal, and the images analyzed by computer. Data obtained for exposure to soman demonstrated significant increases in DNA fragmentation in circulating leukocytes in CWNA-treated guinea pigs compared with saline-injected control animals at all doses and time points examined. Notably, significantly increased DNA fragmentation was observed in leukocytes 17 days after cessation of soman exposure. Our findings demonstrate that leukocyte DNA fragmentation assays may provide a sensitive biomarker for low-dose CWNA exposure.

Although sensitive and specific, currently employed immunoassays generally rely on the detection of a single epitope, and therefore often cannot discriminate subtle strain-specific differences. Since DNA microarrays can hybridize hundreds to thousands of genomic targets simultaneously and do not rely on phenotypic expression of these genetic features for identification purposes, they have enormous potential to provide inexpensive, flexible and specific strain-specific detection and identification of pathogens. In this study, pathogenic Escherichia coli O157:H7-specific genes, non-pathogenic K12-specific genes, common E. coli genes, and negative control genes were polymerase chain reaction-amplified and spotted onto the surface of treated glass slides. After labeled bacterial cDNA samples were hybridized with probes on the microarray, specific fluorescence patterns were obtained, enabling identification of pathogenic E. coli O157:H7 and non-pathogenic E. coli K12. To test the utility of this microarray device to detect genetically engineered bacteria, E. coli BL21 (a B strain derivative with antibiotic resistance gene, ampR) and E. coli JM107 (a K12 strain derivative lacking the gene ompT) were also employed. The array successfully confirmed the strain genotypes and demonstrated that antibiotic resistance can also be detected. The ability to assess multiple data points makes this array method more efficient and accurate than a typical immunoassay, which detects a single protein product.

Two sulfa-drugs, sulfamethazine (SMZ) and sulfamethoxazole (SMO), were, respectively, immobilized on the gold electrodes of the piezoelectric crystals using appropriate procedures based on self-assembly of the dithiothreitol (DTT). The binding interactions of the two immobilized drug ligands, with various proteins in solution, were followed as changes in the resonant frequency of the modified crystals. Results obtained from this rapid screen analysis clearly indicated that the two drug ligands appeared quite different in this molecular recognition procedure although their structures were similar. SMZ-immobilized sensor showed specific interaction only with IgG, while SMO-immobilized sensor showed negligible specific binding with IgG, but binding with trypsin and chymotrypsin. Further studies on the specific interaction between immobilized SMZ and three different species of IgG--human IgG, goat IgG and mouse IgG were carried out and the marked species-dependent difference was observed. The resultant sensorgrams were rapidly analyzed by using an in-house kinetic analysis software based on genetic algorithm (GA) to derive both the kinetic rate constants (k sub(ass) and k sub(diss)) and equilibrium association constants (K sub(A)) for IgG-SMZ interactions. For the interactions, K sub(A) were 5.48xl0, 2.75xl0 and 1.86xl0 super(5) M super(-1) for human IgG, goat IgG and mouse IgG, respectively. The kinetic data provided further insight into the structural/functional relationships of different IgG on a molecular level.

The 16S-23S ISR was analyzed by this method with 42 strains of B. anthracis, 36 strains of Bacillus cereus, and 12 strains of Bacillus thuringiensis; the gyrA gene was analyzed by this method with 33 strains of B. anthracis, 27 strains of B. cereus, and 9 strains of B. thuringiensis.

The histidine was immobilized on the gold electrodes of the piezoelectric crystal using appropriate procedures based on self-assembling of the dithiothreitol (DTT). The specific interaction of the immobilized ligand with IgG in solution was followed as a change in the resonant frequency of the modified crystal and studied in real time without any additional labels. With the mass sensitive biosensor system, the differences in affinity of three different species of IgG: human IgG, goat IgG and mouse IgG were easily distinguished and their respective kinetic rate constants (k sub(ass) and k sub(diss)) and equilibrium association constants (K sub(A)) were determined from the curves of frequency versus time. For the interactions, K sub(A) were 2.92x10, 3.23x10 and 4.08x10 super(4) M super(-1) for human IgG, goat IgG and mouse IgG, respectively.

These equations employ added mass and hydrodynamic damping coefficients, which depend on vessel shape and the proximity of free-surface and solid boundaries. The present study has experimentally determined these coefficients for barge tows moored in the chamber of navigation locks. Seven lock chamber configurations were tested in which the width, depth, and length of the chamber and the beam width and length of the tow were varied. Values of the added mass coefficient and a nondimensional form of the damping coefficient are presented. Subsequent to modeling flow in a lock chamber, these coefficients can be used in conjunction with hawser properties (spring constants) to estimate hawser forces generated during locking operations.

A computerized self-report questionnaire was administered to a convenience sample of 2,337 highly functioning active-duty soldiers at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, who underwent baseline testing during a 13-month period in 1999 and 2000 as part of a larger ongoing Institutional Review Board-approved study examining the consequences of brain injuries among paratroopers. Approximately 23% of all of the soldiers surveyed reported sustaining a TBI after joining the Army. More than twice as many paratroopers reported sustaining TBI after joining the Army than did nonparatroopers (p < 0.001). Parachute-related TBI accounted for this difference. Nearly all of these injuries were mild. Less than 2% of paratroopers and no nonparatroopers reported loss of consciousness lasting more than 20 minutes. It was also shown that paratroopers with a history of TBI before joining the Army had a higher prevalence of TBI while serving in the Army (35%) than paratroopers without prior TBI (27.2%) (p = 0.002). This study demonstrates that parachuting appears to be a risk factor for mild TBI in the U.S. Army and that paratroopers with a history of TBI before joining the Army might be at somewhat increased risk of sustaining additional TBI while serving in the Army.

At lower water surface elevations, Devils Lake functions as a series of connected basins with salinity increasing in an eastward direction due to evaporation. The recent increase in water depth provides an opportunity for increased dispersive exchange flows and mixing between the lake's basins due to wind and buoyancy forces. This increased mixing will change the future water quality distribution in Devils Lake, and may therefore have an impact on plans for lake level stabilization. In this paper, a model based on energy and conservation of mass principles is applied to estimate the potential redistribution of sulfate within Devils Lake. The rate of redistribution may affect the lake's ecosystem and the design of a possible water diversion to the Red River of the North for the purpose of stabilizing the water surface elevation. Included in the paper is the selection of model input parameters, model calibration with field measurements, and application of the model to five future scenarios.

AN - 73608796; 12948548 AB - Many researchers are familiar with the spreadsheet capabilities of Microsoft Excel, but have never explored using customized VISUAL BASIC FOR APPLICATIONS (VBA) macros embedded in the program. At the United States Army Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense (USAMRICD), the implementation of VBA program code to carry out repetitive operations has resulted in a tremendous savings in both the time and manpower required to reliably capture, analyze, and plot data from research protocols. A set of "template" workbooks was developed and is used to organize data from different types of studies. At the heart of the concept is a "setup information" worksheet onto which the user enters information about the study (i.e. the number of subjects, groups, graphs). Clicking a control button on this worksheet launches the VBA code that creates worksheets for each subject, group and chart specified. A "pairmatch" function allows the user to create groups either randomly or by pair matching based on user-specified variables. Controls are provided that run VBA program code to parse subject data files into the proper worksheets and perform group averages. Charts are updated automatically whenever group averages change so that the researcher always has an up-to-date plot available. The ability to reformat the captured data onto a "statistical output" worksheet allows data to be imported easily to statistical software packages. The concept is being used for several different types of studies at USAMRICD and has significantly reduced not only amount of time spent on data management, but also the number of data entry errors.

AN - 75724059; 14503681 AB - Adverse reactions during hypobaric chamber operations result from changes in barometric pressure per se and to the related reductions in the partial pressure of inspired oxygen. Previous studies have indicated that an adverse reaction may occur in approximately 6% of exposures in chambers used for flight training. The purpose of this study was to determine the rate of adverse reactions in a chamber used exclusively for terrestrial altitude research studies. Data for incidence of ear block, sinus block, toothache, and other adverse reactions were analyzed using a master history file that contained information such as annual and total number of studies and human exposures, and onset and outcome of adverse reactions. Incidence for a given time period was calculated as (# of reactions x 100)/(# of exposures). In 33 yr, there have been 23,656 human exposures and 296 adverse reactions. The overall incidence was 1.25 reactions per 100 exposures (0.72 for research volunteers and 0.53 for staff). The majority (75% of all reactions) were ear blocks (0.93 reactions per 100 exposures). Staff members were more likely than research volunteers to have more than one reaction. The incidence of 1.25 reactions per 100 exposures for our chamber is considerably lower than that reported in the literature. This is due primarily to our use of lower altitudes and slower rates of ascent and descent compared with other facilities whose emphasis is on aircraft flight training.

AN - 75703754; 14503672 AB - Lasers (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation) play an important role in our world and their use is increasing. They are powerful tools for good, but can also cause tragedy, especially in an aviation environment. Information about injuries associated with lasers is limited. This study highlights several laser eye injuries in the U.S. military and discusses issues pertaining to them. We gathered data from the U.S. Army Safety Center, the U.S. Army Center for Health Promotion and Preventive Medicine, and the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research. This paper describes ten representative cases of laser eye injury that occurred in the U.S. military between 1984 and 2000. Patients suffered retinal damage, though no corneal injury occurred. Most were caused by accidental exposure to a Q-switched, Neodynium:YAG (Nd:YAG) laser at 1064 nm wavelength. The incidents occurred both on and off duty, indoors and outdoors, and from close and long ranges. None of the victims were wearing eye protection. Inadequate training and poor equipment design were major factors in at least six of the nine unintentional cases. The tenth occurred during military operations in the Persian Gulf. All of the victims needed several months medical care and follow up. Two received medical discharges as a result of their injuries. As illustrated by these cases, human and societal costs from unintentional laser eye injuries can be reduced by improving operator training, safety procedure compliance, and equipment design.

AN - 75702125; 12910372 AB - Given the favorable immunologic effects of IL-2 post transplant, we conducted a feasibility study examining rIL-2 1.0x106 IU/m2/day (SQ) beginning on D+14 post-transplant and continuing for 90 days in 12 patients with low-grade lymphoproliferative disorders. Prior to high-dose chemotherapy and autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (HDCT), 11 patients underwent cytoreduction with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide (Flu/Cy); 11 were in complete remission (CR) and one was in partial remission at the time of HDCT. All 12 patients were in CR 90 days post-HDCT. At a median follow-up of 30 (range 3-44) months, seven patients (58%) remain in remission, four are alive with disease, and one has died of disease progression, resulting in an overall survival of 92%. Kaplan-Meier estimates of progression-free survival (PFS) for the group demonstrate a median of 31 (range 3-43) months. Five patients required rIL-2 cessation at 8-58 days after starting the therapy due to hematologic toxicity. These results are comparable to those achieved in other published bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cell transplantion (PBSCT) series without the addition of rIL-2. Furthermore, rIL-2 using this schedule following fludarabine-based cytoreduction was associated with excessive hematologic toxicity.

AN - 73585995; 12936997 AB - We employed a murine model to test the concept of using an aerosolized, long-acting antiviral drug to protect humans against smallpox. We previously showed that a low dose of aerosolized cidofovir (HPMPC [Vistide]) was highly protective against subsequent aerosolized cowpox virus challenge and was more effective than a much larger dose of drug given by injection, suggesting that aerosolized cidofovir is retained in the lung. Because the nephrotoxicity of cidofovir is a major concern in therapy, delivering the drug directly to the respiratory tract might be an effective prophylactic strategy that maximizes the tissue concentration at the site of initial viral replication, while minimizing its accumulation in the kidneys. In the present study, we found that treating mice with aerosolized (14)C-labeled cidofovir ((14)C-cidofovir) resulted in the prolonged retention of radiolabeled drug in the lungs at levels greatly exceeding those in the kidneys. In contrast, subcutaneous injection produced much higher concentrations of (14)C-cidofovir in the kidneys than in the lungs over the 96-h time course of the study. As further evidence of the protective efficacy of aerosolized cidofovir, we found that aerosol treatment before or after infection was highly protective in mice challenged intranasally with cowpox virus. All or nearly all mice that were treated once by aerosol, from 2 days before to 2 days after challenge, survived intranasal infection, whereas all placebo-treated animals died.

Inhibition of S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase and nucleotide congeners. AN - 73580202; 12919315 AB - Eight adenosine analogs, 3-deaza-adenosine (DZA), 3-deaza-(+/-)aristeromycin (DZAri), 2',3'-dideoxy-adenosine (ddAdo), 2',3'-dideoxy-3-deaza-adenosine (ddDZA), 2',3'-dideoxy-3-deaza-(+/-)aristeromycin (ddDZAri), 3-deaza-5'-(+/-)noraristeromycin (DZNAri), 3-deaza-neplanocin A (DZNep), and neplanocin A (NepA), were tested as inhibitors of human placenta S-adenosylhomocysteine (AdoHcy) hydrolase. The order of potency for the inhibition of human placental AdoHcy hydrolase was: DZNep approximately NepA >> DZAri approximately DZNAri > DZA >> ddAdo approximately ddDZA approximately ddDZAri. These same analogs were examined for their anti-HIV-1 activities measured by the reduction in p24 antigen produced by 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT)-sensitive HIV-1 isolates, A012 and A018, in phytohemagglutinin-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear (PBMCs) cells. Interestingly, DZNAri and the 2',3'-dideoxy 3-deaza-nucleosides (ddAdo, ddDZAri, and ddDZA) were only marginal inhibitors of p24 antigen production in HIV-1 infected PBMC. DZNAri is unique because it is the only DZA analog with a deleted methylene group that precludes anabolic phosphorylation. In contrast, the other analogs were potent inhibitors of p24 antigen production by both HIV-1 isolates. Thus it was postulated that these nucleoside analogs could exert their antiviral effect via a combination of anabolically generated nucleotides (with the exception of DZNAri), which could inhibit reverse transcriptase or other viral enzymes, and the inhibition of viral or cellular methylation reactions. Additionally, QSAR-like models based on the molecular mechanics (MM) were developed to predict the order of potency of eight adenosine analogs for the inhibition of human AdoHcy hydrolase. In view of the potent antiviral activities of the DZA analogs, this approach provides a promising tool for designing and screening of more potent AdoHcy hydrolase inhibitors and antiviral agents.

Antibody to HCV was present in 49.5% of HIV-infected men and 2.2% among uninfected men. These data suggest that a significant number of HIV infections among young men in Thailand may be associated with injection drug use.

The US & Europe must not allow our 'cultural' differences to push us into opposite corners, but should rather recognize that these differences -- preference for soft versus hard power -- lend themselves perfectly to a division of labor that addresses every aspect of the war against terrorism, from 'winning the hearts & minds', to cutting off recruits & retreating forces, to fighting & defeating the enemy in combat. This article presents a proposal for rethinking US & European responsibilities for global security & lays out a path to reach the end state: the burden of hegemonic responsibility shared by the United States & the European Union. This work is an attempt to improve transatlantic relations by changing attitudes within the United States & spurring concrete action in the European Union. 47 References.

The objective of this project, initiated in FYOO and planned for completion in FYO5, was to determine the potential for environmental contamination from residues of energetic materials on ranges. This report describes accomplishments for FYO2. A U.S. and a Canadian site were characterized for explosives residues resulting from live- fire soldier training: Fort Bliss, Texas, and Canadian Forces Base (CFB), Shilo, Manitoba. Results are also reported on tests to determine residues associated with open detonations and low-order detonations and tests to define environmental fate and transport process descriptors. Results of intensive sampling at Fort Bliss indicated that judgmental sampling targeting low-order residues and firing points is superior to grid sampling for identifying potential point sources of contamination over the typically large training range areas. Furthermore, composite sampling offers the best opportunity of capturing a realistic concentration under the conditions of extreme heterogeneity. Results of open detonations tests confirmed that the use of C4 generates significant explosives residuals. In low-order detonation tests, controlling the percent energy yield of artillery projectiles proved difficult. Adjustments in the variables from these results will improve control of future detonation tests. At CFB Shilo, energetic materials found in soils were associated with targets, and propellants were associated with firing points. The Shilo ranges exhibited relatively low levels of contamination not requiring immediate corrective action. Results of soil partitioning tests demonstrated that pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) and tetryl are degraded in surface and aquifer soils. While adsorption is relatively limited and will not impede transport, degradation may be sufficient to reduce transport of these explosives.

Indigo snakes in this region are sexually dimorphic in size, with males attaining greater maximum lengths. Subadult and small adult snakes grow more rapidly than larger adults. Georgia specimens prey on a variety of vertebrates, including juvenile gopher tortoises (Gopherus polyphemus). The return of adult indigo snakes to the same sandhills in multiple years has conservation and management significance. Long-term population monitoring of indigo snakes is feasible and may yield valuable information.

The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for Ag(I) was observed to be between 0.1 mg Ag/I and 0.05 mg Ag/I following a 24-h incubation period at 25 degree C. Additional forms of silver that were effective included Ag sub(2)O, a protein-based silver and AgCl sub((S)). All of these forms of silver resulted in MICs that were comparable to Ag(I). Predictions from a chemical equilibrium modelling system indicated that a silver-histidine complex may have contributed to the observed bactericidal activity. A MIC for colloidal metallic silver (Ag super(0)) was not observed up to a total silver concentration of 82 mg Ag/I--the highest concentration evaluated. Moreover, aqueous silver was not detected at this total silver concentration. It was concluded from these findings that cationic Ag(I) or Ag(I)-complexes were responsible for the bactericidal activity of silver. In the batch systems evaluated, the MICs increased with time, over a 72-h incubation period, to values above the US Environmental Protection Agency Secondary Standard for silver, for all forms of silver tested. A desorption kinetics study indicated that less than 10% of silver was readily leachable from a granular activated carbon surface that was first saturated with silver.

There are no vaccines, effective antiviral drugs, or immunologics to prevent or treat HPS. In an attempt to develop HPS medical countermeasures, we constructed an expression plasmid, pWRG/AND-M, that contains the full-length M genome segment of Andes virus (ANDV), a South American hantavirus. Transfection experiments in cell culture indicated that both the G1 and G2 glycoproteins are expressed from pWRG/AND-M. Rhesus macaques vaccinated by gene gun with pWRG/AND-M developed remarkably high levels of neutralizing antibodies that not only neutralized ANDV but also cross-neutralized other HPS-associated hantaviruses, including Sin Nombre virus. To determine if the antibodies elicited in the monkeys could confer protection, we performed a series of passive-transfer experiments using a recently described lethal HPS animal model (i.e., adult Syrian hamsters develop HPS and die within 10 to 15 days after challenge with ANDV). When injected into hamsters 1 day before challenge, sera from the vaccinated monkeys either provided sterile protection or delayed the onset of HPS and death. When injected on day 4 or 5 after challenge, the monkey sera protected 100% of the hamsters from lethal disease. These data provide a proof of concept for a gene-based HPS vaccine and also demonstrate the potential value of a postexposure immunoprophylactic to treat individuals after exposure, or potential exposure, to these highly lethal hantaviruses.

Icaricia icarioides fenderi (Fender's blue butterfly) and Lupinus sulphureus ssp. kincaidii (Kincaid's lupine) are federally listed as Endangered and Threatened Species, respectively. Both are Willamette Valley upland prairie endemics, and Kincaid's lupine is the primary host plant for the Fender's blue butterfly. Attempts to grow Kincaid's lupine have been partially successful in a greenhouse situation; however, propagating plants from field-sown seed can be tenuous and plant establishment is unpredictable. Kincaid's lupine seeds were planted in the fall 1997 at two different upland prairie sites, and the cohort was followed through the summer 2000. Based on cohort tables the most vulnerable life stages to mortality are the germinant stage and the first growing year. Mechanical scarification of Kincaid's lupine seeds yielded no significant differences in survivorship, maternal function, plant size, and the percentage of seeds germinated compared with unscarified seeds. Differential seed source performance detected at one planting site suggests that underlying differences in population genetics may affect Kincaid's lupine vigor, fitness, and establishment. Future restoration projects for Kincaid's lupine should focus on upland prairie sites with naturally occurring lupine populations because local ecological conditions are favorable for lupine establishment. Moreover, the addition of new individuals to small Kincaid's lupine colonies will buffer against the effects of inbreeding depression and increase the site carrying capacity for Fender's blue butterfly.

Molecular clones of vaccine candidates were constructed by inserting either three independently attenuating mutations or a PE2 cleavage-signal mutation with a second-site resuscitating mutation into full-length cDNA clones. Vaccine candidate viruses were recovered through DNA transcription and RNA transfection of cultured cells, and assessed in rodent and non-human primate models. Based on results from this assessment, one of the PE2 cleavage-signal mutants, V3526, was determined to be the best vaccine candidate for further evaluation for human use.

AN - 73638421; 12952384 AB - Antiretroviral regimens are complicated and difficult for patients to follow, and they can have serious side effects, such as osteonecrosis and bone demineralization. Protease inhibitor therapy has been associated with hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, gastrointestinal symptoms, and body-fat distribution abnormalities. Nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors can cause rashes and hepatotoxicity, and nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors can cause lactic acidosis, hypersensitivity reactions, neuropathies, pancreatitis, anemia, and neutropenia. Malabsorption can occur if antiretroviral agents are taken improperly with regard to meals or if they are taken with certain other drugs or herbal remedies. Some commonly prescribed drugs can cause dangerous drug toxicities if they are taken by patients who are also taking certain antiretroviral medications. Suboptimal exposure to antiretrovirals because of noncompliance or malabsorption can result in viral resistance and loss of future treatment options.

AN - 85376820; pmid-12942985 AB - People working in noisy environments often complain of difficulty communicating when they wear hearing protection. It was hypothesized that part of the workers' communication difficulties stem from changes in speech production that occur when hearing protectors are worn. To address this possibility, overall and one-third-octave-band SPL measurements were obtained for 16 men and 16 women as they produced connected speech while wearing foam, flange, or no earplugs (open ears) in quiet and in pink noise at 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100 dB SPL. The attenuation and the occlusion effect produced by the earplugs were measured. The Speech Intelligibility Index (SII) was also calculated for each condition. The talkers produced lower overall speech levels, speech-to-noise ratios, and SII values, and less high-frequency speech energy, when they wore earplugs compared with the open-ear condition. Small differences in the speech measures between the talkers wearing foam and flange earplugs were observed. Overall, the results of the study indicate that talkers wearing earplugs (and consequently their listeners) are at a disadvantage when communicating in noise.

AN - 73636676; 12962348 AB - Lack of information and misinformation often lead to physicians advising mothers to discontinue breastfeeding because of medication use. Also, many mothers do not adhere to their prescriptions or quit breastfeeding because of medication use. Although in both cases this cessation of breastfeeding is probably based on concern for the infant's safety, the physician may also be influenced by expediency and fear of litigation. The safest course for physicians who are treating nursing mothers is to consult reliable sources before advising discontinuation of breastfeeding. Overwhelming evidence has shown that breastfeeding is the most healthful form of nutrition for babies and should therefore be encouraged by physicians. Physicians should take the following approach to maximize safe maternal medication use for both the mother and the breastfed infant: 1. Determine if medication is necessary. 2. Choose the safest drug available, that is, one that; is safe when administered directly to infants, has a low milk:plasma ratio, has a short half-life, has a high molecular weight, has high protein binding in maternal serum, is ionized in maternal plasma, is less lipophilic. 3. Consultation with the infant's pediatrician is encouraged. 4. Advise the mother to take the medication just after she has breastfed the infant or just before the infant's longest sleep period. 5. If there is a possibility that a drug may risk the health of the infant, arrange for the monitoring of serum drug levels in the infant. Emergency physicians are often faced with the daunting task of treating a large variety of high-acuity patients, including patients who happen to be pregnant or nursing mothers. Priority, of course, needs to be given to life-saving treatment. When physicians are treating pregnant or breastfeeding patients, they need to use reliable resources to evaluate the risks and benefits of the medication for the mother and the infant. Most medications should have no effect on milk supply or on infant well-being. In most cases, treatment plans for patients should include encouragement from the emergency physician that he or she has researched the chosen medicine and that breastfeeding may safely continue.

AN - 73600829; 12943034 AB - It is unlikely that Gulf War veterans are suffering chronic effects from illnesses caused by chemical warfare nerve agent exposure. Extensive investigation and review by several expert panels have determined that no evidence exists that chemical warfare nerve agents were used during the Gulf War. At no time before, during, or after the war was there confirmation of symptoms among anyone, military or civilian, caused by chemical warfare nerve agent exposure. However, studies of Gulf War veterans have found belief that chemical weapons were used, significantly associated with both severe and mild-moderate illnesses. The psychological impact of a chemical warfare attack, either actual or perceived, can result in immediate and long-term health consequences. The deployment or war-related health impact from life-threatening experiences of the Gulf War, including the perceived exposure to chemical warfare agents, should be considered as an important cause of morbidity among Gulf War veterans.

AN - 73572821; 12924930 AB - Acrolein is a bifunctional electrophile, present as an ubiquitous environmental pollutant and an endogenous cellular product of lipid peroxidation. Reaction of acrolein with deoxyguanosine produces two regioisomeric DNA adducts, specifically gamma-hydroxypropanodeoxyguanosine (gamma-HOPdG) and alpha-hydroxypropanodeoxyguanosine (alpha-HOPdG). While previous investigations have focused on the major gamma-HOPdG adduct, little is known about the properties of the minor alpha-HOPdG adduct. Therefore, this comparative investigation has assessed the following: the ability of each adduct to undergo secondary chemical reactions with biomolecules to form various cross-linked species, in vitro translesion DNA synthesis, and mutagenic properties, following replication in mammalian cells. In contrast to gamma-HOPdG, which is capable of forming DNA-DNA, DNA-peptide, and DNA-protein cross-links, alpha-HOPdG did not form any of these cross-linked species. These results can be attributed to the inability of the alpha-HOPdG adduct to undergo ring opening, whereas the gamma-HOPdG adduct forms the ring open, acyclic N(2) oxopropyl in duplex DNA, which readily reacts with nucleophilic functions. Consistent with this interpretation, when polymerase eta replication bypass of DNA containing alpha-HOPdG was assayed, this lesion posed a stronger block to replication than the gamma-HOPdG adduct, closely resembling the results for polymerase eta bypass of propanodeoxyguanosine in which the exocyclic adduct remains permanently ring-closed. Cellular replication and mutagenesis assays in COS-7 cells using single-stranded DNA containing a site specific alpha-HOPdG revealed that this adduct was significantly mutagenic, yielding a nearly identical frequency and spectrum of mutations as compared with the gamma-HOPdG adduct.

AN - 73537159; 12907237 AB - The inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) by organophosphorus compounds (OPs) causes acute toxicity or death of the intoxicated individual. One group of these compounds, the OP nerve agents, pose an increasing threat in the world due to their possible use in the battlefield or terrorist acts. Antidotes containing oxime compounds to reactivate the inhibited enzyme are highly valued for treatment against OP poisoning. One of these reactivators, HI-6, was shown to be significantly more effective in treating soman toxicity than other oximes, such as 2-PAM, TMB4, and obidoxime. However, HI-6 was less effective in reactivating AChE inhibited by the OP pesticide, paraoxon. In this study, the mechanism for HI-6-induced reactivation of OP-AChE conjugates was investigated using mouse mutant AChEs inhibited with different OPs including organophosphate paraoxon, and several methylphosphonates. Results indicate that the HI-6 molecule may assume two different orientations in the reactivation of AChE inhibited by organophosphate and Sp methylphosphonates. These conclusions were further corroborated by reactivation studies using an analog of HI-6 in which the bispyridinium moieties are linked by a methylene bridge rather than an ether oxygen.

AN - 73523267; 12807730 AB - The mechanism of inactivation of the O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), responsible for repair of mutagenic and cytotoxic O6-alkylguanine, in Mex- tumor cells, is not completely understood. We have examined the role of CpG methylation in the human MGMT promoter in a luciferase (luc) reporter plasmid and associated alteration in chromatin structure. Methylation of 16% CpG sequences in promoter and flanking sequences in the plasmid with HpaII methylase reduced luciferase activity by 10-12-fold, while methylation of all CpG sites, including those in the luc coding sequence, as well as the promoter sequence blocked expression completely. Repression of luc expression due to partial but not complete CpG methylation could be reversed by histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA). However, 5-azacytidine, which reverses CpG methylation, but not TSA, could reactivate silent MGMT gene in Mex- HeLa MR cells. Furthermore, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay showed reduced level of acetylation of H4 histone bound to the methylated promoter compared with the non-methylated promoter. These results suggest that complete repression of the MGMT gene in Mex- cells requires methylation of CpG sequences in both promoter and neighboring regions of the gene, resulting in inactive, condensed chromatin state of the gene.

AN - 73522945; 12893601 AB - A system designed to rapidly identify an infectious disease outbreak or bioterrorism attack and provide important demographic and geographic information is lacking in most health departments nationwide. The Department of Defense Global Emerging Infections System sponsored a meeting and workshop in May 2000 in which participants discussed prototype systems and developed recommendations for new surveillance systems. The authors provide a summary of the group's findings, including expectations and recommendations for new surveillance systems. The consensus of the group was that a nationally led effort in developing health indicator surveillance methods is needed to promote effective, innovative systems.

AN - 73374815; 12834743 AB - The anaerobic biodegradation of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX), octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine (HMX), and 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) by a methanogenic mixed culture was investigated. Microcosms containing a basal medium and the mixed culture were amended with ethanol, propylene glycol (PG), butyrate or hydrogen gas as the electron donor and a mixture of TNT (50 microM), RDX (25 microM), and HMX (8 microM). After 29 days TNT and RDX were completely transformed to unidentified endproducts in the bottles amended with ethanol, hydrogen, or PG, while 53%, 40%, and 22% of the HMX was transformed, respectively. There was no loss of RDX or HMX in the electron donor unamended control bottles. The ethanol and PG were transformed to near stoichiometric amounts of acetate and propionate, suggesting the immediate electron donor supporting the transformation of the explosives was the H2 evolved during the metabolism of the parent substrate. Our findings suggest that the addition of H2 or electron donors that produce H2 may be a useful strategy for enhancing the anaerobic biodegradation of explosives in contaminated groundwater and soils.

The longitudinal profiles of beds of highly eroding glaciers tend towards steady-state angles, cf. the steeper angles in the overlying ice-air surface slopes. Climatic or glacial perturbations of these slopes can effect glacial-fluvial sediment flux and the apparent glacial erosion rate.

In the USLE, erodibility is known as the K factor, which in turn is a function of these soil properties: particle size distribution, organic matter content, structure, and permeability. The traditional approach for estimating soil erodibility does not account for spatial variability of individual soil properties or spatial correlation among those properties. Our objectives in this study were to evaluate the use of joint sequential simulation for mapping soil erodibility, as well as to partition the individual and joint variance contribution of soil properties for predicting soil erodibility. We collected 192 usable soil samples across Fort Hood, Texas in the summer of 1999. For each of those samples, we obtained an estimate of particle size distribution, organic matter content, structure, permeability, and calculated soil erodibility. We carried out both independent and joint sequential simulation to generate spatially explicit predictions and variance of all soil properties as well as covariance between pairs of soil properties for each cell within our simulation area. We used the program GCOSIM3D to conduct those simulations. On average, joint sequential simulation resulted in a K factor variance of less than half the variance obtained from independent simulation. Using the results from joint sequential simulation, we partitioned the contribution of each soil property and pair of properties using first-order Taylor series expansion of the soil erodibility function. Individually, Very-Fine-Sand-and-Silt contributed the most (46.19%), whereas Structure contributed the least (6.53%) to the K factor variance. Jointly, Permeability/Structure contributed the most (9.32%), whereas Sand/Very-Fine-Sand-and-Silt caused the largest reduction (-19.19%) in the K factor variance. We conclude that joint sequential simulation provided approximately twice as much precision as independent simulation for the spatially explicit prediction of soil erodibility. Likewise, first-order Taylor series expansion offered an accurate approach for partitioning the individual and joint contribution of soil properties to soil erodibility variance. This partitioning allowed us to identify large sources of uncertainty and suggest efficient approaches for further improving the precision of K value predictions.

Climate change also has strong implications for political, economic, and social policy. Because climate change affects such a wide variety of disciplines and people, pursuing research in this field requires an interdisciplinary approach. This need to simultaneously understand climate change and forecast and effectively deal with its impacts on present and future generations presents a great challenge to the global research community.

The source of WP contamination at ERF was the firing of WP-containing munitions into the area by the U.S. military. WP is a well known toxicant and is lethal to a wide range of species. However, WP contamination at ERF is the first documented case of a U.S. Army munitions impact area contaminated with WP particles. This has led to the designation of ERF as a Superfund site by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Army must follow the guidelines of remediation set by the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). Numerous studies have been conducted to better characterize the nature and the extent of WP contamination, and treatability studies for remediation processes are currently being implemented. This comprehensive bibliography provides all publications related to WP contamination remediation project at ERF through 2003.

To improve the representativeness of on-site analysis, a simple on-site processing (grinding and mixing) and subsampling protocol was evaluated. Surface samples from three firing range characterization activities were taken through a procedure where the bulk samples were air-dried, sieved (#10, 2 mm), ground with a portable hand-operated mill, mixed, and then subsampled using layered bedding technique. This approach reduces laboratory-subsampling variance for both sparsely vegetated and vegetated surface soils. Moreover, during a subsequent dynamic sampling and analysis effort, this protocol was successful in ranking explosives residue concentrations associated with a specific military training activity.

In this study, we evaluated RDX biodegradation in surface soils obtained from a military training range in Alaska. Two factors were compared: (i) soil water potential during the incubations; and (ii) the use of acetonitrile (ACN) as an RDX carrier to spike samples. Organic solvents have been used in laboratory studies to dissolve slightly water-soluble contaminants before addition to soil. We added ACN to obtain final soil ACN concentrations of 0 mg kg super(-1) (0%), 1000 mg kg super(-1) (0.1%) and 10 000 mg kg super(-1) (1%). We then compared RDX attenuation in the soil under saturated and unsaturated conditions. RDX fell below the limit of detection within 3 wk of study initiation under the saturated condition. A maximum degradation rate of 0.15 mg RDX L super(-1) d super(-1) was measured. Under the unsaturated condition, 42% of the original RDX was still present at study termination (5 wk). The addition of acetonitrile at 0.1 or 1.0% had no affect on RDX loss in the saturated soil. In the unsaturated soil, however, ACN at 1.0% inhibited RDX loss by as much as 25%. These findings indicate that soil water potential and carrier solvent concentrations can impact the rate and extent to which RDX is attenuated in a surface soil.

The assay is based on TaqMan chemistry with the orthopoxvirus hemagglutinin gene used as the target sequence. With genomic DNA purified from variola virus Bangladesh 1975, the limit of detection was estimated to be approximately 25 copies on both machines. The assay was evaluated in a blinded study with 322 coded samples that included genomic DNA from 48 different isolates of variola virus; 25 different strains and isolates of camelpox, cowpox, ectromelia, gerbilpox, herpes, monkeypox, myxoma, rabbitpox, raccoonpox, skunkpox, vaccinia, and varicella-zoster viruses; and two rickettsial species at concentrations mostly ranging from 100 fg/ mu l to 1 ng/ mu l. Contained within those 322 samples were variola virus DNA, obtained from purified viral preparations, at concentrations of 1 fg/ mu l to 1 ng/ mu l. On the Smart Cycler platform, 2 samples with false-positive results were detected among the 116 samples not containing variola virus tested; i.e., the overall specificity of the assay was 98.3%. On the LightCycler platform, five samples with false-positive results were detected (overall specificity, 95.7%). Of the 206 samples that contained variola virus DNA ranging in concentrations from 100 fg/ mu l to 1 ng/ mu l, 8 samples were considered negative on the Smart Cycler platform and 1 sample was considered negative on the LightCycler platform. Thus, the clinical sensitivities were 96.1% for the Smart Cycler instrument and 99.5% for the LightCycler instrument. The vast majority of these samples were derived from virus-infected cell cultures and variola virus-infected tissues; thus, the DNA material contained both viral DNA and cellular DNA. Of the 43 samples that contained purified variola virus DNA ranging in concentration from 1 fg/ mu l to 1 ng/ mu l, the assay correctly detected the virus in all 43 samples on both the Smart Cycler and the LightCycler platforms. The assay may be useful for the early detection of smallpox virus infections should such infections occur as a result of a deliberate or an accidental recurrence.

Previous research has suggested that polyacrylamide (PAM) may reduce erosion in areas of concentrated flow. This research tested the hypothesis that a PAM-treated channel would result in significantly less erosion than untreated soil in a pre-formed, trapezoidal channel measuring 0.6 m at the top, 0.1 m at the bottom, 0.13 m deep, and 15.2 m long. Anionic PAM (30% charge density, 18 Mg mol super(-1) molecular weight) was applied in solution at a rate of 80 kg ha super(-1). The soil used in these experiments was red clay loam (37% sand, 35% silt, 28% clay). Channel geometry and sediment concentration were measured for each of four inflow rates (0.0016, 0.0032, 0.0063, and 0.0126 m super(3) s super(-1)). A secondary objective was to measure the influence of PAM on headcut rate advance. Measured sediment yield rate was significantly less from PAM-treated channels than from the control. Reductions in sediment yield rate ranged from 93% to 98%. Channel incision depth was not different between the two treatments; however, effective flow widths (assuming rectangular channel geometry) were significantly greater for the untreated control channel. Headcut advance rates were greatly reduced in PAM-treated channels (0.06 to 0.6 m h super(-1)) compared to the untreated channel (17.8 m h super(-1)) in our limited data. These results show that PAM was an effective means of controlling erosion in experimental earth channels.

CIDP is associated with a variety of concomitant medical illnesses, which often manifest weeks before the onset of muscle weakness and paresis. We describe what we believe is the first reported case of an association between CIDP and recurrent acute adenotonsillitis, which we observed in an 11-year-old girl. Following adenotonsillectomy, the patient's CIDP went into remission and her overall physical condition improved with physiotherapy.

AN - 73580896; 12880345 AB - Sulfur mustard (SM; 2,2(')-dichloroethyl sulfide) is a percutaneous alkylating agent first used as a chemical weapon at Ypres, Belgium, in World War I. Despite its well-documented history, the primary lesions effecting dermal-epidermal separation and latent onset of incapacitating blisters remain poorly understood. By immunofluorescent imaging of human epidermal keratinocytes (HEK) and epidermal tissues exposed to SM (400 microM for 5 min), we have amassed unequivocal evidence that SM disrupts adhesion complex molecules, which are also disrupted by epidermolysis bullosa-type blistering diseases of the skin. Images of keratin 14 (K14) in control cells showed tentlike filament networks linking the HEK's basolateral anchoring sites to the dorsal surface of its nuclei. Images from 6-h postexposure profiles revealed early disruption (10,000 United States military and others that reside or train nearby is unknown, but may be related to personnel protection measures (permethrin-impregnated uniforms and use of deet repellent), adult mosquito control, mosquito selection of nonhuman hosts (unpublished data), and the low symptomatic to asymptomatic ratio of disease in adults.

Two blocks of 50 houses (a minimum of 250 m apart) served as treatment and control sites in each village, with each house in the treatment area receiving 10 LOs. Thirty houses in the center of each treatment and control block were selected as sampling sites, with larval and adult mosquito sampling initiated when LOs were placed. Sampling was conducted weekly in 10 of the 30 houses at each site, with each block of 10 houses sampled every third week. Sampling continued for 30 wk. Efficacy of the LO was evaluated by determining number of containers with larvae and/or pupae per house and number of adult mosquitoes collected inside each house. In 1999, the LO had a negligible impact on all measures of Ae. aegypti abundance that were assessed; however, fungal contamination of insecticide-impregnated strips may have been responsible for the low efficacy. In 2000, significant suppression was achieved based on changes in multiple entomologic criteria (containers with larvae, containers with pupae, and number of adult Ae. aegypti ); however, control was not absolute and neither immature nor adult Ae. aegypti were ever eliminated completely. We conclude that the LO can reduce adult Ae. aegypti populations in Thailand; however, efficacy of the LO is lower than desired due primarily to the high number of alternative oviposition sites. LO efficacy may be improved when used as part of an integrated control program that places emphasis on reduction of adjacent larval habitats. Further studies are required to assess this issue.

In this study, we probed how mutational substitutions of streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin A (SPEA), a model bacterial superantigen, affect native conformational stability and antigenicity. Stability changes for the toxin variants were determined using circular dichroism and fluorescence measurements, and scanning calorimetry. Self-association was assayed by dynamic light scattering. Inactivated SPEA proteins containing particular combinations of mutations elicited antibodies in HLA-DQ8 transgenic mice that neutralized SPEA superantigenicity in vitro, and protected animals from lethal toxin challenge. However, a highly destabilized cysteine-free mutant of SPEA did not provide effective immunity, nor did an irreversibly denatured version of an otherwise effective mutant protein. These results suggest that protein conformation plays a significant role in generating effective neutralizing antibodies to this toxin, and may be an important factor to consider in vaccine design.

Here, we report vaccine efficacy of an attenuated SEB in a nonhuman primate model following lethal aerosol challenge and identify several biomarkers of protective immunity. Initial in vitro results indicated that the mutation of key amino acid residues in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II binding sites of SEB produced a nontoxic form of SEB, which had little to no detectable binding to MHC class II molecules, and lacked T-cell stimulatory activities. When examined in a mouse model, we found that the attenuated SEB retained antigenic structures and elicited protective immune responses against wild-type SEB challenge. Subsequently, a vaccine regimen against SEB in a nonhuman primate model was partially optimized, and investigations of immune biomarkers as indicators of protection were performed. SEB-naive rhesus monkeys were vaccinated two or three times with 5 or 20 mu g of the attenuated SEB and challenged by aerosol with wild-type SEB toxin. Unlike exposure to the native toxin, the vaccine did not trigger the release of inflammatory cytokines (TNF alpha , IL6, or IFN gamma ). All rhesus monkeys that developed anti-SEB serum titers 10 super(4) and elicited high levels of neutralizing antibody survived the aerosol challenge. These findings suggest that the attenuated SEB is fully protective against aerosolized toxin when administered to unprimed subjects. Moreover, experiments presented in this study identified various biomarkers that showed substantial promise as correlates of immunity and surrogate endpoints for assessing in vivo biological responses in primates, and possibly in humans, to vaccines against SEs.

The developmental system consisted of two variations: the improved toxicological agent protective (ITAP) suit with self-contained breathing apparatus (ITAP-SCBA), weight 32 kg, and the ITAP with blower (ITAP-B), weight 21 kg. Both ITAP suits included the personal ice cooling system (PICS). TAP (weight 9.5 kg) had no cooling. It was hypothesized that PICS would effectively cool both ITAP configurations, and endurance in TAP would be limited by heat strain. Eight subjects (six men, two women) attempted three 2-hour treadmill walks (0.89 m/sec, 0% grade, rest/exercise cycles of 10/20 min) at 38 degree C, 30% relative humidity. Metabolic rate for TAP (222 plus or minus 35 W) was significantly less than either ITAP-SCBA (278 plus or minus 27 W) or ITAP-B (262 plus or minus 24 W) (p<0.05). Endurance time was longer in ITAP-SCBA (85 plus or minus 20 min) and ITAP-B (87 plus or minus 25 min) than in TAP (46 plus or minus 10 min) (p<0.05). Heat storage was greater in TAP (77 plus or minus 15 W times m super(-2)) than in ITAP-SCBA (51 plus or minus 16 W times m super(-2)) (p<0.05), which was not different from ITAP-B (59 plus or minus 14 W times m super(-2)). Sweating rate was greater in TAP (23.5 plus or minus 11.7 g/min super(1)) than in either ITAP-SCBA (11.1 plus or minus 2.9 g/min) or ITAP-B (12.8 plus or minus 3.5 g/min) (p<0.05). Endurance in ITAP was nearly twice as long as in PPE with no cooling, even though the PICS, SCBA tanks, and new uniform itself all served to increase metabolic cost over that in TAP. PICS could also be used with civilian Levels A and B PPE increasing work time and worker safety.

We used this method to detect and identify Yersinia pestis KIM5 ciprofloxacin-resistant isolates by analyzing the quinolone resistance-determining region (QRDR) of the gyrase A gene. Sequencing of the Y. pestis KIM5 strain gyrA QRDR from 55 ciprofloxacin- resistant isolates revealed five mutation types. We analyzed the gyrA QRDR by DHPLC to assess its ability to detect point mutations and to determine whether DHPLC peak profile analysis could be used as a molecular fingerprint. In addition to the five mutation types found in our ciprofloxacin-resistant isolates, several mutations in the QRDR were generated by site-directed mutagenesis and analyzed to further evaluate this method for the ability to detect QRDR mutations. Furthermore, a blind panel of 42 samples was analyzed by screening for two mutant types to evaluate the potential diagnostic value of this method. Our results showed that DHPLC is an efficient method for detecting mutations in genes that confer antibiotic resistance.

Adrenoreceptor responsiveness was tested under two experimental conditions (with and without maximal exercise). Adrenoreceptor tests were performed 24 h after each subject performed graded upright cycle ergometry to volitional exhaustion. The 2 test days (experimental conditions) were separated by at least 1 wk, and the order of exercise and no-exercise conditions was counterbalanced. Steady-state graded infusions of phenylephrine (PE) and isoproterenol (Iso) were used to assess alpha - and beta -adrenoreceptor responsiveness, respectively. Slopes calculated from linear regressions between Iso and PE doses and changes in heart rate, blood pressure, and leg vascular resistance for each subject were used as an index of alpha - and beta -adrenoreceptor responsiveness. The slope of the relationship between heart rate and Iso with maximal exercise was 1,773 plus or minus 164 beats times mu g super(-1) times kg super(-1) times min super(-1) compared with 1,987 plus or minus 142 beats times mu g super(-1) times kg super(-1) times min super(-1) without exercise (P = 0.158), whereas the slopes of the relationship between vascular resistance to Iso were -438 plus or minus 123 peripheral resistance units (PRU) times mu g super(-1) times kg super(-1) times min super(-1) with maximal exercise and -429 plus or minus 105 times mu g super(-1) times kg super(-1) times min super(-1) without exercise (P = 0.904). Maximal exercise was associated with greater (P < 0.05) vascular resistance (15.1 plus or minus 2.8 PRU times mu g super(-1) times kg super(-1) times min super(-1)) and mean arterial blood pressure (15.8 plus or minus 2.1 mmHg times mu g super(-1) times kg super(-1) times min super(-1)) responses to PE infusion compared with no exercise (9.0 plus or minus 2.0 PRU times mu g super(-1) times kg super(-1) times min super(-1) and 10.9 plus or minus 2.0 mmHg times mu g super(-1) times kg super(-1) times min super(-1), respectively). These results provide evidence that a single bout of maximal exercise increases alpha sub(1)-adrenoreceptor responsiveness within 24 h without affecting beta -cardiac and vascular adrenoreceptor responses.

Royle). Collected from 1998 through 2002, the oldest of 477 fish were age 11. Total annual mortality rates ranged from 22% to 39% meaning 10% of a cohort could persist for 5 to 9 years. Longevity and persistence measured in this study demonstrate that benefits of aquatic plant control and risks to non-target organisms need to be carefully balanced. Annual stocking of as many as 150,000 could potentially leave numerous fish in this system for almost a decade. Conversely, control of hydrilla, achieved since 1997, is unlikely to last more than few more years.

AN - 73298188; 12767694 AB - Cadmium is a pervasive environmental contaminant. The primary route of exposure to the general population occurs via contaminated drinking water or food supplies. Our hypothesis was that cadmium could be a trigger for inducing autoimmune disease (AD) in genetically predisposed populations. Therefore, New Zealand Black/White F1 (NZBW) mice were exposed to cadmium via drinking water. Mice were exposed to: 0, 3, 30, 3000 or 10000 parts per billion (ppb) of cadmium in tap water for 2, 4, 28, or 31 weeks. After 4 weeks of exposure, in the group of mice exposed to 10000 ppb cadmium, there was an increased incidence of antinuclear antibodies (ANA). There was also deposition of immune complexes in all groups after 4 weeks of exposure. After 31 weeks, there were increases in IgG2a in mice exposed to low doses of cadmium. In an attempt to establish the progression from an autoimmune reaction to the development of AD, the biological marker for AD, proteinuria, was assessed. Onset of proteinuria was exacerbated by 11 weeks in mice exposed to cadmium. This data suggests that short-term exposure may result in a type of autoimmune reaction since the mice are beginning to produce ANA after only 4 weeks of exposure and there is immune-complex deposition in the kidney. Long-term exposure to cadmium appears to result in the exacerbation of AD as indicated by the development of proteinuria and continued presence of immune complexes in the kidney. The mechanism may involve the increased production of IgG2a, which is capable of forming immune complexes and causing autoimmune glomerulonephritis.

AN - 73386762; 12824209 AB - The United States recently implemented smallpox vaccination of selected military personnel in a national program of preparedness against use of smallpox as a biological weapon. The resumption of smallpox vaccinations raises important questions regarding implementation and safety. To describe the US military smallpox vaccination program. Descriptive study of the vaccination program from its inception on December 13, 2002, through May 28, 2003. US Department of Defense (DoD) fixed and field medical treatment facilities on multiple continents and ships at sea. US service members and DoD civilian workers eligible for smallpox vaccination. Numbers of vaccinations and rates of vaccination exemptions, symptoms, and adverse events. Data were collected via reports to headquarters and rigorous surveillance for sentinel events. In 5.5 months, the DoD administered 450 293 smallpox vaccinations (70.5% primary vaccinees and 29.5% revaccinees). In 2 settings, 0.5% and 3.0% of vaccine recipients needed short-term sick leave. Most adverse events occurred at rates below historical rates. One case of encephalitis and 37 cases of acute myopericarditis developed after vaccination; all cases recovered. Among 19 461 worker-months of clinical contact, there were no cases of transmission of vaccinia from worker to patient, no cases of eczema vaccinatum or progressive vaccinia, and no attributed deaths. Mass smallpox vaccinations can be conducted safely with very low rates of serious adverse events. Program implementation emphasized human factors: careful staff training, contraindication screening, recipient education, and attention to bandaging. Our experience suggests that broad smallpox vaccination programs may be implemented with fewer serious adverse events than previously believed.

AN - 73375965; 12798619 AB - The immunoprotective potential of a recombinant vaccine against the incapacitating effect of aerosolized staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) in nonhuman primates is reported. SEB belongs to a family of structurally related superantigens responsible for serious, life threatening pathologies. Injecting the recombinant SEB vaccine did not induce temperature elevation in rhesus monkeys, a classical symptom of toxic-shock syndrome. No temperature elevation was noted following injection with control tetanus toxoid. In addition to 100% survival, we observed a clear correlation between vaccine dose and mitigation of temperature elevation after a lethal SEB aerosol challenge. We conclude that the recombinant SEB vaccine is non-pyrogenic and that monitoring changes in body temperature is an important biomarker of toxic shock in a primate animal model.

Laser scanning confocal microscopy was employed to monitor real-time changes in basal intracellular calcium concentrations in embryonic rat neurons in response to mefloquine and thapsigargin (a known inhibitor of the ER calcium pump) in the presence and absence of external calcium. Changes in the transcriptional regulation of known ER stress response genes in neurons by mefloquine were investigated using Affymetrix arrays. The MTT assay was employed to measure the acute neurotoxicity of mefloquine and its antagonisation by thapsigargin. At physiologically relevant concentrations mefloquine was found to mobilize neuronal ER calcium stores and antagonize the pharmacological action of thapsigargin, a specific inhibitor of the ER calcium pump. Mefloquine also induced a sustained influx of extra-neuronal calcium via an unknown mechanism. The transcription of key ER proteins including GADD153, PERK, GRP78, PDI, GRP94 and calreticulin were up-regulated by mefloquine, suggesting that the drug induced an ER stress response. These effects appear to be related, in terms of dose effect and kinetics of action, to the acute neurotoxicity of the drug in vitro. Mefloquine was found to disrupt neuronal calcium homeostasis and induce an ER stress response at physiologically relevant concentrations, effects that may contribute, at least in part, to the neurotoxicity of the drug in vitro.

AN - 85379155; pmid-12894867 AB - Improving the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for individuals with hearing loss who are listening to speech in noise provides an obvious benefit. Although binaural hearing provides the greatest advantage over monaural hearing in noise, some individuals with symmetrical hearing loss choose to wear only one hearing aid. The present study tested the hypothesis that individuals with symmetrical hearing loss fit with one hearing aid would demonstrate improved speech recognition in background noise with increases in head turn. Fourteen individuals were fit monaurally with a Starkey Gemini in-the-ear (ITE) hearing aid with directional and omnidirectional microphone modes. Speech recognition performance in noise was tested using the audiovisual version of the Connected Speech Test (CST v.3). The test was administered in auditory-only conditions as well as with the addition of visual cues for each of three head angles: 0 degrees, 20 degrees, and 40 degrees. Results indicated improvement in speech recognition performance with changes in head angle for the auditory-only presentation mode at the 20 degrees and 40 degrees head angles when compared to 0 degrees. Improvement in speech recognition performance for the auditory + visual mode was noted for the 20 degrees head angle when compared to 0 degrees. Additionally, a decrement in speech recognition performance for the auditory + visual mode was noted for the 40 degrees head angle when compared to 0 degrees. These results support a speech recognition advantage for listeners fit with one ITE hearing aid listening in a close listener-to-speaker distance when they turn their head slightly in order to increase signal intensity.

AN - 85377420; pmid-12894864 AB - The Joint Committee on Infant Hearing (JCIH, 2000) has presented principles and guidelines for universal newborn hearing screening and early hearing detection and intervention (EHDI). The guidelines describe the need for a national data set for early hearing detection and intervention. The guidelines fail to provide the specific constructs for such a data set. To the authors' knowledge, no nationally proposed uniform data structure exists to capture EHDI services' outcome metrics. This article presents a proposed newborn hearing screening and EHDI data model. This model was developed to record EHDI outcomes data from Military Health System birthing centers. The data are to be collected for tracking implementation of Healthy People 2010 goals related to newborn hearing screening and EHDI programs within the Military Health System. In this article, the authors use the T. Helfer, A. Shields, and K. Gates (2000) methods to model a uniform structure for collection of newborn hearing screening and EHDI data. They also discuss expansion of the data model for application to public health reporting of EHDI outcomes in the civilian sector to include integration of Census Bureau demographic data and geographic information system data to further enhance the research value of these EHDI outcomes data. They offer the data model with the intention of supporting national research efforts for studying the efficacy of EHDI programs and to help establish a national evidence-based practice database for such programs.

AN - 73428272; 12831017 AB - The rates of reduction of carbon tetrachloride (CT) and nitrobenzene (NB) by iron-oxide coated gold electrodes were studied to gain insight into the processes that control reduction of groundwater contaminants by zerovalent metal permeable reactive barriers. Fe(III)-oxide films were deposited on gold electrodes with a small fraction of the Fe(III) electrochemically reduced to Fe(II) to investigate the role of Fe(II) in the reduction of the CT and NB. Mass transport to the surface of the oxide film was controlled through use of a well-defined flow-through system similar to a wall-jet electrode. The factors affecting the overall reduction rate were investigated by varying the Fe(II) content in the iron-oxide, controlling mass transport of the electroactive species to the oxide surface, and varying the thickness of the oxide film. The rates of reduction of CT and NB were found to be independent of Fe(II) content in the iron-oxide and were only slightly dependent on the rate of transport to the surface of the oxide under a few sets of reaction conditions. Conversely, the rates of reduction were greatly dependent on the thickness of the oxide film, with the reduction rate decreasing as the oxide thickness increased. Evidence suggests that the location of the reduction reaction for CT and NB is at the gold surface and supports a barrier model for the system studied, in which the oxide film physically impedes direct contact of the electroactive species and the gold electrode, increases the diffusion path length, and creates adsorption sites.

AN - 73325728; 12782081 AB - Aerosol exposure to ricin causes irreversible pathological changes of the respiratory tract resulting in epithelial necrosis, pulmonary edema and ultimately death. The pulmonary genomic profile of BALB/c mice inhalationally exposed to a lethal dose of ricin was examined using cDNA arrays. The expression profile of 1178 mRNA species was determined for ricin-exposed lung tissue, in which 34 genes had statistically significant changes in gene expression. Transcripts identified by the assay included those that facilitate tissue healing (early growth response gene (egr)-1), regulate inflammation (interleukin (IL)-6, tristetraproline (ttp)), cell growth (c-myc, cytokine-inducible SH2-containing protein (cish)- 3), apoptosis (T-cell death associated protein (tdag)51, pim-1) and DNA repair (ephrin type A receptor 2 (ephA2)). Manipulation of these gene products may provide a means of limiting the severe lung damage occurring at the cellular level. Transcriptional activation of egr-1, cish-3, c-myc and thrombospondin (tsp)-1 was already apparent when pathological and physiological changes were observed in the lungs at 12 h postexposure. These genes may well serve as markers for ricin-induced pulmonary toxicity. Ongoing studies are evaluating this aspect of the array data and the potential of several genes for clinical intervention.

AN - 73287244; 12754688 AB - Detection of acute lung injury is important if therapeutic medical countermeasures are to be used to reduce toxicity in a timely manner. Indicators of injury may aid in the eventual treatment course and enhance the odds of a positive outcome following a toxic exposure. This study was designed to investigate the effects of a toxic exposure to the industrial irritant gas phosgene on the electrolyte levels in arterial blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). Phosgene is a well-known chemical intermediate capable of producing life-threatening pulmonary edema within hours after exposure. Four groups of 40 Crl:CD-1(ICR)BR male mice were exposed whole-body to either air or phosgene at a concentration x time (c x t) amount of 32-42 mg/m(3) (8-11 ppm) phosgene for 20 min (640-840 mg x min/m(3)). BALF from air- or phosgene-exposed mice was taken at 1, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, or 72 h postexposure. After euthanasia, the trachea was excised, and 800 microl saline was instilled into the lungs. The lungs were washed 5x. Eighty microliters of BALF was placed in a cartridge and inserted into a clinical i-STAT analyzer. Na(+), Cl(-), K(+), and ionized Ca(2+) were analyzed. Arterial blood electrolyte levels were also analyzed in four additional groups of air- or phosgene-exposed mice. The left lung was removed to determine wet weight (WW), an indicator of pulmonary edema. Na(+) was significantly higher in air than in phosgene-exposed mice at 4, 8, and 12 h postexposure. Temporal changes in BALF Cl(-) in phosgene mice were not statistically different from those in the air mice. Both Ca(2+) and K(+) were significantly higher than in the air-exposed mice over 72 h, p < or = 0.03 and p < or = 0.001 (two-way analysis of variance, ANOVA), respectively. Significant changes in BALF K(+) and Ca(2+) occurred as early as 4 h postexposure in phosgene, p < or = 0.005, versus air-exposed mice. Over time, there were no significant changes in arterial blood levels of Na(+), Cl(-), or Ca(2+) for animals exposed to air versus phosgene. However, arterial K(+) concentrations were significantly higher, p < or = 0.05, than in air-exposed mice across all time points, with the highest K(+) levels of 7 mmol/L occurring at 8 h and 24 h after exposure. Phosgene caused a time-dependent significant increase in WW from 4 to 12 h, p < or = 0.025, compared with air-exposed mice. These data demonstrate that measuring blood K(+) levels 1 h after exposure along with BALF Na(+), K(+), and Ca(2+) may serve as an alternate indicators of lung injury since both K(+) and Ca(2+) follow temporal increases in air-blood barrier permeability as measured by wet weight.

AN - 73285327; 12755190 AB - The greatest threats to America's public health include accidental importation of deadly diseases by international travelers and the release of biologic weapons by our adversaries. The greatest failure is unpreparedness because international travel and dispersion of biologic agents by our enemies are inevitable. An effective medical defense program is the recommended deterrent against these threats. The United States has a federal response plan in place that includes patient care and patient transport by using the highest level of biologic containment: BSL-4. The DoD has the capability to provide intensive care for victims infected with highly infectious yet unknown biologic agents in an environment that protects the caregiver while allowing scientists to study the characteristics of these new agents and assess the effectiveness of treatment. Army critical care nurses are vital in the biologic medical defense against unidentified infectious diseases, accidental occupational exposures, or intentional dispersion of weaponized biologic agents. Research that carefully advances healthcare using BSL-4 technology addresses the challenges of the human element of BSL-4 containment patient care, and BSL-4 patient transport enhances our nation's ability to address the emerging biologic threats we confront in the future.

AN - 73278322; 12754689 AB - Characterization of lung injury is important if timely therapeutic intervention is to be used properly and successfully. In this study, lung injury was defined as the progressive formation of pulmonary edema. Our model gas was phosgene, a pulmonary edemagenic compound. Phosgene, widely used in industry, can produce life-threatening pulmonary edema within hours of exposure. Four groups of 40 CD-1 male mice were exposed whole-body to either air or a concentration x time (c x t) amount of 32-42 mg/m(3) (8-11 ppm) phosgene for 20 min (640-840 mg x min/m(3)). Groups of air- or phosgene-exposed mice were euthanized 1, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, or 72 h or 7 days postexposure. The trachea was excised, and 800 micro l saline was instilled into the lungs and washed back and forth 5 times to collect bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). The antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione reductase (GR), superoxide dismutase (SOD), total glutathione (GSH), and protein were determined at each time point. Phosgene exposure significantly enhanced both GPx and GR in phosgene-exposed mice compared with air-exposed mice from 4 to 72 h, p < or = 0.01 and p < or = 0.005, respectively. BALF GSH was also significantly increased, p < or = 0.01, from 4 to 24 h after exposure, in comparison with air-exposed. BALF protein, an indicator of air/blood barrier integrity, was significantly higher than in air-exposed mice 4 h to 7 days after exposure. In contrast, BALF SOD was reduced by phosgene exposure from 4 to 24 h, p < or = 0.01, versus air-exposed mice. Except for protein, all parameters returned to control levels by 7 days postexposure. These data indicate that the lung has the capacity to repair itself within 24-48 h after exposure by reestablishing a functional GSH redox system despite increased protein leakage. SOD reduction during increased leakage may indicate that barrier integrity is affected by superoxide anion production.

PSHA incorporates serious uncertainties. Chiefly, they are: (1) PSHA smears earthquakes together to produce motions that are unrealistic for any specific earthquake-generating fault source, (2) PSHA assumes there is an essentially log-linear predictability through time for both the sizes of earthquakes and their motions, although earthquake experiences deny this assumption, and (3) PSHA derives design values from an almost total lack of data on the recurrences that it claims to represent. Error bands for probabilistic motions, if honestly applied, would be so enormously broad that probabilistic values would be seen to be too uncertain as a rational basis for critical designs. Worse yet, the directive of the California Geological Survey has forced a de facto elimination of deterministic seismic hazard analysis (DSHA) from consideration. Yet, DSHA provides more logical, more transparent, more peer reviewable, and more dependable solutions than does PSHA. In summary, the new regulatory directive fails to provide the public in California with a necessary level of seismic safety.

The PSHSV program calculates and plots amplitude (reflection and refraction/transmission) coefficients, square root energy ratios, energy coefficients, and phase changes for elastic waves of P-, SH- or SV-type incident on an interface between elastic media. The EHEV program calculates and plots amplitude coefficients, square root energy ratios, energy coefficients, and phase changes for electromagnetic waves of EH- or EV-type incident on an interface between dielectric media. The applicability of the programs is demonstrated through the presentation of solutions (plotted as a function of incidence angle) obtained for geologic environments commonly encountered in seismic and ground penetrating radar applications.

Results from pile-load and pressuremeter tests showed maximum K (sub o) values greater than 10; however, the complex geologic environment of the Midcontinent made defining an origin for the anomalous K (sub o) based solely on these measurements equivocal. Although in situ sediment characteristics indicated that indirect tectonic or nontectonic geologic mechanisms that include transient overburden loads (e.g., fluvial deposition/erosion, glacial advance/retreat) and dynamic shear loads (e.g., earthquakes) were not the dominant cause, they were unable to provide indicators for a direct tectonic generation. Localized stresses induced anthropogenically by the geotechnical field tests were also considered, but ruled out as the primary origin. A high-resolution shear-wave (SH) reflection image of geologic structure in the immediate vicinity of the test site revealed compression-style neotectonism, and suggested that the elevated stress was a tectonic manifestation. Post-Paleozoic reflectors exhibit a Tertiary (?) structural inversion, as evidenced by post-Cretaceous fault displacement and pronounced positive folds in the hanging wall of the interpreted faults. The latest stratigraphic extent of the stress effects (i.e., all measurements were in the Late Cretaceous to Tertiary McNairy Formation), as well as the relationship of stress orientation with the orientation of local structure and regional stress, remain unknown. These are the subjects of ongoing studies. JF - Tectonophysics AU - Woolery, Edward W AU - Schaefer, Jeffrey A AU - Wang, Zhenming A2 - McBride, John H. A2 - Stephenson, William J.

The Illinois Waterway with its system of locks and dams links Chicago and the Great Lakes to the Mississippi River, and, thus, the Gulf of Mexico. This linkage has a significant transportation and commercial value for the state and the nation. In addition, with its numerous backwater lakes, wetlands, and floodplain forests, the Illinois River valley provides a significant habitat for fish, waterfowl, birds, and other animals, making it an important ecological resource. The Illinois River's environment has been subjected to many of the impacts associated with developments in the watershed, including waste discharges from urban areas, water-level control for navigation, and sediment and chemical inflow from agricultural lands. The quality of the river was severely degraded for several decades prior to the 1970s when environmental regulations were enacted to control pollutant discharges. Since then the quality of the river has been gradually improving. However, problems associated with erosion and sedimentation have not been improving and are recognized as the number-one environmental problem in the Illinois River valley. The main sources of sediment to the Illinois River valley are watershed erosion, stream bank erosion, and bluff erosion. The contribution of watershed erosion to the sedimentation problem in the Illinois River valley has been quantified by analyzing the sediment yields of tributary streams that drain into the valley. Annual sediment yield equations were developed for the major tributaries and then used to construct an approximate sediment budget for the Illinois River valley.

Of the 30 chiggers individually removed from scrub typhus-infected rodents, 2 were found positive for O. tsutsugamushi. We further characterized the O. tsutsugamushi detected from these rodents and chiggers by RFLP using three different enzyme digestions. All 14 O. tsutsugamushi samples (12 from tissue samples and 2 from chiggers) showed different digestion patterns when compared to those of reference strains (Karp, Kato, and Gilliam). Interestingly, nine RFLP profiles were observed from these 14 samples suggesting the presence of high genetic diversity of O. tsutsugamushi in this area. Furthermore, one sample displayed the same RFLP pattern as that of O. tsutsugamushi mild resistant strain previously isolated from scrub typhus patient in Chiangrai.

Infection rates in Oc. j. japonicus were 0-33% after feeding on chickens with viremias between 10 super(4.1) and 10 super(4.7) plaque-forming units (PFU)/ml of blood. In comparison, infection rates were 12-94% for Cx. pipiens that fed on the same chickens. When fed on chickens with viremias between 10 super(5.3) and 10 super(5.6) PFU/ml of blood, infection rates for Oc. j. japonicus and Cx. pipiens were similar, 96% and 100%, respectively. After 12-14 days of extrinsic incubation at 26 degree C, all 34 infected Oc. j. japonicus had a disseminated infection. In contrast, only 23 (43%) of 54 infected Cx. pipiens had a disseminated infection after feeding on the same chickens. If they developed a disseminated infection, both species efficiently transmitted ( greater than or equal to 87%) SLE. Estimated transmission rates at viral doses sufficient to infect both of the tested species were 29-84% for Oc. j. japonicus and 30-50% for Cx. pipiens. Because of its continued geographic expansion, field and laboratory evidence incriminating it as a vector of the closely related West Nile virus, and its ability to transmit SLE in the laboratory, Oc. j. japonicus should be considered as a potential enzootic or epizootic vector of SLE.

This was achieved by force detection of the magnetic resonance, magnetic resonance force microscopy (MRFM), in combination with optical pumping to increase the nuclear spin polarization. Optical pumping of the GaAs created spin polarization up to 12 times larger than the thermal nuclear spin polarization at 5 K and 4 T. The experiment was sensitive to sample volumes of 50 mu m super(3) containing similar to 4 x 10 super(11) super(71)Ga/ square root Hz. These results demonstrate the ability of force-detected magnetic resonance to apply magnetic resonance imaging to semiconductor devices and other nanostructures.

Laboratory results were analyzed and two empirical theories were developed for predicting movement based on wave conditions and ordnance/cylinder characteristics: (1) modified Shields parameter approach comparing ordnance and cylinder parameters with a wave Shields parameter to identify critical regimes for ordnance/cylinder movement; and (2) Keulegan-Carpenter number (KC) approach comparing the ratio of maximum orbital velocity at the ordnance/cylinder surface and ordnance/cylinder diameter with relative water depth. Evaluation of these two approaches with the laboratory data indicated that the best predictive technique appeared to be the modified Shields parameter approach. A field deployment of two drogue cylinders instrumented with acoustic pingers was conducted to further investigate ordnance movement using acoustic tracking procedures. Measured wave conditions and cylinder characteristics were used in the modified Shields parameter approach and indicated that the cylinders would be mobile. The field deployment of two cylinders verified the prediction results showing net movements of 15 and 13 m, respectively.

For purposes of immune therapy, though, complete antibodies that retain the Fc domain are often required. In this regard, we designed cassette vectors for converting human Fab fragments selected from combinatorial phage display libraries into full-length IgG sub(1) monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). Two expression vectors, pIEI-Light and pIEI-Heavy, were engineered to contain respective light- and heavy-chain human signal sequences downstream of the baculovirus immediate early gene promoter, IEI. Vector pIEI-Heavy also contains the coding region for each of the human IgG sub(1) constant domains. To generate complete antibody genes, the cassette vectors possess convenient restriction enzyme sites for rapid in-frame cloning of coding regions for full-length light chains in pIEI-Light and for the heavy-chain variable domains in pIEI-Heavy of Fab fragments. Using these constructs and a method that allows for stable transformation of insect cells, complete light- and heavy-chain genes can be inserted into the insect cell genome and subsequently expressed under the control of the baculovirus IEI promoter. This cassette vector system was used to generate stably transformed insect cells that continuously secreted functional full-length, IgG sub(1) MAbs. The expressed antibodies exhibited light and heavy chains of the appropriate molecular sizes and retained the ability to bind antigen. We conclude that our cassette vectors could serve as valuable tools for generating human IgG sub(1) antibodies.

Borrelia andersonii and B. burgdorferi were 99.1% similar in mobility. All of the isolates, MOD-1, 2, 3, 5, and 6, were from one farm in southeastern Missouri; four were isolated from Ixodes dentatus and one (MOD-6) was isolated from Amblyomma americanum. The amplified product of MOD-2 was identical (100%) to B. andersonii; MOD-1 and MOD-3 were very similar (99.8%) to B. andersonii, and MOD-5 was 99.7% similar to B. burgdorferi B-31. MOD-6 was the most divergent of the Missouri isolates from both B-31 (98.5%) and B. andersonii (99.3%).

Plasma volume, heart rate (HR) variability, and stimulus-response relationships for baroreflex control of forearm vascular resistance (FVR) and HR were studied in eight healthy men after and without performing a bout of maximal exercise to test the hypotheses that acute expansion of plasma volume is associated with 1) reduction in baroreflex-mediated HR response, and 2) altered operational range for central venous pressure (CVP). Methods. The relationship between stimulus ( Delta CVP) and vasoconstrictive reflex response ( Delta FVR) during unloading of cardiopulmonary baroreceptors was assessed with lower-body negative pressure (LBNP, 0, -5, -10, -15, -20 mm Hg). The relationship between stimulus ( Delta mean arterial pressure (MAP)) and cardiac reflex response ( Delta HR) during loading of arterial baroreceptors was assessed with steady-state infusion of phenylephrine (PE) designed to increase MAP by 15 mm Hg alone and during application of LBNP (PE+LBNP) and neck pressure (PE+LBNP+NP). Measurements of vascular volume and autonomic baroreflex responses were conducted on two different test days, each separated by at least 1 wk. On one day, baroreflex response was tested 24 h after graded cycle exercise to volitional exhaustion. On another day, measurement of baroreflex response was repeated with no exercise (control). The order of exercise and control treatments was counterbalanced. Results. Baseline CVP was elevated (P = 0.04) from a control value of 10.5 plus or minus 0.4 to 12.3 plus or minus 0.4 mm Hg 24 h after exercise. Average Delta FVR/ Delta CVP during LBNP was not different (P = 0.942) between the exercise (-1.35 plus or minus 0.32 pru times mm Hg super(-1)) and control (-1.32 plus or minus 0.36 pru times mm Hg super(-1)) conditions. However, maximal exercise caused a shift along the reflex response relationship to a higher CVP and lower FVR. HR baroreflex response ( Delta HR/ Delta MAP) to PE+LBNP+NP was lower (P = 0.015) after maximal exercise (-0.43 plus or minus 0.15 beats times min super(-1) times mm Hg super(-1)) compared with the control condition (-0.83 plus or minus 0.14 beats times min super(-1) times mm Hg super(-1)). Conclusion. Expansion of vascular volume after acute exercise is associated with altered operational range for CVP and reduced HR response to arterial baroreceptor stimulation.

Immunization healthcare is becoming increasingly complex as the number and types of vaccines have continued to expand. Like all prescription drugs, vaccines may be associated with adverse events. The majority of these reactions are self-limited and not associated with prolonged disability. The media, Internet and public advocacy groups have focused on potentially serious vaccine-associated adverse events with questions raised about causal linkages to increasing frequencies of diseases such as autism and asthma. Despite a lack of evidence of a causal relationship to a variety of vaccine safety concerns, including extensive reviews by the Institute of Medicine, questions regarding vaccine safety continue to threaten the success of immunization programs. Risk communication arid individual risk assessment is further challenged by the public health success of vaccine programs creating the perception that certain vaccines are no longer necessary or justified because of the rare reaction risk. There is a need for improved understanding of true vaccine contraindications and precautions as well as host factors and disease threat in order to develop a patient specific balanced risk communication intervention. When they occur, vaccine related adverse events must be treated, documented and reported through the VAERS system. The increasing complexity of vaccination health care has led the Center of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to identify Vaccine Safety Assessment and Evaluation as a potential new specialty.

ETEC colonization factors (CF) are virulence determinants that appear to be protective antigens in humans and are the major target of vaccine efforts. One of the most prevalent CF, CS6, is expressed by about 30% of ETEC worldwide. This study was designed to compare the immunogenicity between encapsulated CS6 (CS6-PLG) and unencapsulated CS6. Recombinant CS6 was purified and encapsulated in biodegradable poly(L- lactide-co-glycolide) (PLG) microspheres using current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). CS6-PLG and CS6 were administered intranasally (IN) to BALB/c mice in three vaccinations 4 weeks apart. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure the anti-CS6 response in serum and mucosal secretions following each of the three inoculations. Mice vaccinated with two or three doses of CS6-PLG demonstrated a significantly greater rise in serum anti- CS6 IgG and mucosal IgA titer values than those immunized with two or three doses of CS6 alone. Three doses of CS6-PLG led to anti-CS6 serum IgG and mucosal IgA titer values 14-fold and 4.4-fold greater, respectively, than three doses of CS6 (P<0.02). IN administered CS6 to mice is safe and highly immunogenic either alone or when encapsulated in microspheres. PLG microsphere encapsulation of CS6 significantly augments the antibody response to that antigen when administered to a mucosal surface.

Phosgene is used widely in industry for the production of many synthetic products, such as polyfoam rubber, plastics, and dyes. Although nearly 100% of the gas is consumed during processing, there is the potential problem of accidental or even intentional exposure to this irritant/choking agent. Exposure to phosgene has been known to cause latent life-threatening pulmonary edema. A major problem is that there is a clinical latency phase from 3 to 24 h in people before irreversible acute lung injury occurs. Assessment of markers of acute lung injury after a suspected exposure would be useful in developing rational treatment strategies. These experiments were designed to assess bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) for the presence of the early markers of exposure to phosgene in mice from 1 to 72 h after exposure. Separate groups of 40 CD-1 male mice (Crl:CD-1(ICR)BR) weighing 29 - 1 g were exposed whole-body to either air or a concentration 2 time (c 2 t) amount of 32 mg/m super(3) (8 ppm) phosgene for 20 min (640 mg times min/m super(3)). BALF from air- or phosgene-exposed mice was taken at 1, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h postexposure. After euthanasia, the trachea was excised, and 800 mu l saline was instilled into the lungs and washed 52. BALF was assessed for interleukin (IL)-4, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) f, IL-1f, macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-2, and IL-10. At 4 h postexposure, IL-6 was 15-fold higher for phosgene-exposed mice than for the time-matched air-exposed control group. At 8 and 12 h, IL-6, IL-1g, MIP-2, and IL-10 were significantly higher in phosgene-exposed mice than in time-matched air-exposed controls, p r .05 to p r .001, whereas TNFf reached peak significance from 24 to 72 h. IL-4 was significantly lower in the phosgene-exposed mice than in the air-exposed mice from 4 to 8 h after exposure. These data show that BALF is an important tool in assessing pro- and anti-inflammatory markers of phosgene-induced acute lung injury and that knowledge of these temporal changes may allow for timely treatment strategies to be applied.

AN - 85370409; pmid-12765389 AB - The performance bounds of a passive acoustic array operating in a turbulent medium with fluctuations described by a von Kármán spectrum are investigated. This treatment considers a single, monochromatic, plane-wave source at near-normal incidence. A line-of-sight propagation path is assumed. The primary interests are in calculating the Cramer-Rao lower bounds of the azimuthal and elevational angles of arrival and in observing how these bounds change with the introduction of additional unknowns, such as the propagation distance, turbulence parameters, and signal-to-noise ratio. In both two and three dimensions, it is found that for large values of the index-of-refraction variance, the Cramer-Rao lower bounds of the angles of arrival increase significantly at large values of the normalized propagation distance. For small values of the index-of-refraction variance and normalized propagation distance, the signal-to-noise ratio is found to be the limiting factor. In the two-dimensional treatment, it is found that the estimate of the angle of arrival will decouple from the estimates of the other parameters with the appropriate choice of array geometry. In three dimensions, again with an appropriate choice of array geometry, the estimates of the azimuth and elevation will decouple from the estimates of the other parameters, but due to the constraints of the model, will remain coupled to one another.

AN - 85368840; pmid-12765369 AB - Acoustic surface waves have been detected propagating outdoors under natural conditions. Two critical experimental conditions were employed to ensure the conclusive detection of these waves. First, acoustic pulses rather than a continuous wave source allowed an examination of the waveform shape and avoided the masking of wave arrivals. Second, a snow cover provided favorable ground impedance conditions for surface waves to exist. The acoustic pulses were generated by blank pistol shots fired 1 m above the snow. The resultant waveforms were measured using a vertical array of six microphones located 60 m away from the source at heights between 0.1 and 4.75 m. A strong, low frequency "tail" following the initial arrival was recorded near the snow surface. This tail, and its exponential decay with height (z) above the surface (approximately e(-alpha z)), are diagnostic features of surface waves. The measured attenuation coefficient alpha was 0.28 m(-1). The identification of the surface wave is confirmed by comparing the measured waveforms with waveforms predicted by the theoretical evaluation of the explicit surface wave pole term using residue theory.

AN - 73563430; 12918558 AB - To determine the prevalence rates and associated characteristics of patients who have ocular surface, ocular adnexal, and lacrimal complications associated with the systemic use of the cancer chemotherapeutic agent 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU). An exposure-based cohort study was designed. Adult patients who had completed at least 3 months of systemic 5-FU therapy within the past 5 years were eligible for enrollment. Study subjects had a detailed medical history taken with emphasis on preexisting conditions known to be associated with the development of ocular surface, ocular adnexal, and lacrimal complications. An ocular examination was then performed. A complete nasolacrimal system evaluation was performed if symptoms or findings were identified. The prevalence was then determined for each ocular symptom and each ocular finding identified that was not present pretreatment. An exploratory analysis was then performed to identify patient characteristics that might influence the likelihood of developing any of the above complications. Fifty-two patients were enrolled in the study. The prevalence rates of the following ocular abnormalities were calculated: ocular irritation, 5.8%; blepharitis, 3.8%; conjunctivitis, 3.8%; keratitis, 3.8%; eyelid dermatitis, 5.8%; cicatricial ectropion, 1.9%; tearing, 26.9%; punctal-canalicular stenosis, 5.8%; and blurred vision, 11.5%. Blacks had tearing at a significantly higher rate when compared with whites (P = 0.022, 2-sided Fisher exact test). Three patients had permanent complications that will require surgery for correction. Of the 7 patients who had a single abnormality, 6 had tearing and one had eyelid dermatitis. All of the 8 patients who had multiple findings had tearing as one of their abnormalities. Ninety-three percent of the patients who had an ocular abnormality had tearing as one of the complications. Patients who are receiving systemic 5-FU and begin to tear should have an ocular examination, looking for ocular surface, ocular adnexal, and lacrimal complications.

AN - 73363854; 12794939 AB - Despite the contrasts in chemistry and toxicity, for blister and nerve chemical warfare agents there may be some analogous proteolytic and inflammatory mediators and pathological pathways that can be pharmacological targets for a single-drug multi-threat medical countermeasure. The dermal-epidermal separation caused by proteases and bullous diseases compared with that observed following exposure to the blister agent sulfur mustard (2,2'-dichlorodiethyl sulfide) has fostered the hypothesis that sulfur mustard vesication involves proteolysis and inflammation. In conjunction with the paramount toxicological event of cholinergic crisis that causes acute toxicity and precipitates neuronal degeneration, both anaphylactoid reactions and pathological proteolytic activity have been reported in nerve-agent-intoxicated animals. Two classes of drugs already have demonstrated multi-threat activity for both nerve and blister agents. Serine protease inhibitors can prolong the survival of animals intoxicated with the nerve agent soman and can also protect against vesication caused by the blister agent sulfur mustard. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors can reduce both soman-induced neuronal degeneration and sulfur-mustard-induced epidermal necrosis. Protease and PARP inhibitors, like many of the other countermeasures for blister and nerve agents, have potent primary or secondary anti-inflammatory pharmacology. Accordingly, we hypothesize that drugs with anti-inflammatory actions against either nerve or blister agent might also display multi-threat efficacy for the inflammatory pathogenesis of both classes of chemical warfare agent.

AN - 73312626; 12753408 AB - The regulatory effects of the active form of vitamin D, 1-alpha, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1-alpha, 25 (OH)2D3) were assessed on the cytokine and chemokine secretion induced by sulfur mustard on human skin fibroblasts and human epidermal keratinocytes. Stimulation of human skin fibroblasts with sulfur mustard (10(-4) M for 24 hr at 37 degrees ) resulted in approximately a 5 times increase in the secretion of interleukin-6 and over a 10 times increase for interleukin-8, which was inhibited by 1-alpha, 25 (OH)2D3, at 78%). Patterns of susceptibility to VEE were similar for Oc. taeniorhynchus collected in Mexico and Honduras. Although Oc. taeniorhynchus was highly susceptible to the epizootic IC strains (infection rates greater than or equal to 95%, n = 190), this species was less susceptible to the enzootic IE strain (infection rates less than or equal to 35%, n = 233). The Culex (Culex ) species were refractory to both subtypes of VEE, and none of 166 contained evidence of a disseminated infection. Virus-exposed Cx. pseudes that refed on susceptible hamsters readily transmitted virus, confirming that this species was an efficient vector of VEE. Although Oc. taeniorhynchus that fed on hamsters infected with the epizootic IC strain transmitted VEE efficiently, only one of six of those with a disseminated infection with the enzootic IE virus that fed on hamsters transmitted virus by bite. These data indicate that Cx. pseudes is an efficient laboratory vector of both epizootic and enzootic strains of VEE and that Oc. taeniorhynchus could be an important vector of epizootic subtypes of VEE.

The IN administration of CFA/I to mice induced strong serum and fecal IgG and IgA responses. The IG administration of CFA/I to mice induced serum IgG and fecal IgA responses, but only when mLT was co-administered with CFA/I were serum IgA titers detected. The IN administration of CS6 to mice induced serum IgG antibodies, and mLT, when co-administered with CS6, enhanced the serum IgG response. Only when the mLT was co-administered with CS6, were serum and fecal IgA responses detected. The IG administration of CS6 plus mLT induced serum IgG and fecal IgA responses. Partial protection against lethal challenge with ETEC strain H10407 was seen in the mice IN administered the CFA/I plus mLT (PIgG2a. The administration of colonization factors to mice, particularly by the IN route, potentially serves as a useful way to measure the serum and mucosal immune responses to these antigens prior to their use in volunteers.

Guinea pigs, previously implanted with cortical electrodes for EEG recording, were pretreated with pyridostigmine bromide (0.026 mg/kg im) 30 min prior to challenge with 2 LD50 dose (sc) of a given nerve agent; in a separate experiment, animals were challenged with 5 LD50 sc of soman. One minute after agent challenge the animals were treated im with 2 mg/kg atropine SO4 admixed with 25 mg/kg 2-PAM Cl. Five minutes after the start of EEG seizures, animals were treated im with different doses of anticholinergics or benzodiazepines and observed for seizure termination. The time to seizure onset, the time to seizure termination, and 24-h lethality were recorded. The anticonvulsant ED50 of each drug for termination of seizures induced by each agent was calculated and compared. Brain tissue from animals that survived 24 h was examined for pathology. All drugs were capable of terminating seizure activity, with midazolam and trihexyphenidyl being significantly more potent than the other drugs, and midazolam being more rapid in controlling seizure than atropine, trihexyphenidyl, or diazepam against each agent. Seizures induced by sarin or VX required lower doses of all the test anticonvulsants. The dose of a given drug that was an effective anticonvulsant against a 2 LD50 challenge of soman was equally effective against seizures induced by a 5 LD50 challenge. All nerve agents were capable of producing neuropathology. Seizure control was strongly associated with protection against acute lethality and brain pathology.

AN - 85373751; pmid-12677110 AB - Recent studies indicate that high-frequency amplification may provide little benefit for listeners with moderate-to-severe high-frequency hearing loss, and may even reduce speech recognition. Moore and colleagues have proposed a direct link between this lack of benefit and the presence of regions of nonfunctioning inner hair cells (dead regions) in the basal cochlea and have suggested that psychophysical tuning curves (PTCs) and tone detection thresholds in threshold-equalizing noise (TEN) are psychoacoustic measures that allow detection of dead regions ([Moore, Huss, Vickers, Glasberg, & Alcántara, 2000]; [Vickers, Moore, & Baer, 2001]). The experiments reported here examine the consistency of TEN and PTC tasks in identifying dead regions in listeners with high-frequency hearing loss.Seventeen listeners (18 ears) with steeply sloping moderate-to-severe high-frequency hearing loss were tested in PTC and TEN tasks intended to identify ears with high-frequency dead regions. In the PTC task, pure-tone signals of fixed level were masked by narrowband noise that slowly increased in center frequency. For a range of signal frequencies, noise levels at masked threshold were determined as a function of masker frequency. In the TEN task, masked thresholds for pure-tone signals were determined for a fixed-level, 70 dB/ERB TEN masker (for some listeners, 85 or 90 dB/ERB TEN was also tested at selected probe frequencies).TEN and PTC results agreed on the presence or absence of dead regions at all tested frequencies in 10 of 18 cases (approximately 56% agreement rate). Six ears showed results consistent with either mid- or high-frequency dead regions in both tasks, and four ears did not show evidence of dead regions in either task. In eight ears, the TEN and PTC tasks produced conflicting results at one or more frequencies. In instances where the TEN and PTC results disagreed, the TEN results suggested the presence of dead regions whereas the PTC results did not.The 56% agreement rate between the TEN and PTC tasks indicates that at least one of these tasks was only partially reliable as a diagnostic tool. Factors unrelated to the presence of dead regions may contribute to excess masking in TEN without producing tip shifts in PTCs. Thus it may be appropriate to view tuning curve results as more reliable in cases where TEN and PTC results disagree. The current results do not provide support for the TEN task as a reliable diagnostic tool for identification of dead regions.

AN - 73358899; 12788034 AB - The bioterrorism threat is perceived to be a real challenge to our nation's security. This threat has necessitated the design of better and faster assays for the detection of biothreat agents including staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB), a causative agent of food poisoning. This study describes a simple, fast and highly sensitive fluorescence-based immunoassay, in which the antibody is fluorescently-labeled for use in this assay. Use of labeled antibodies resulted in very low level of detection of SEB, 100 pg/well. This method is four times faster than classical and conventional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

AN - 73271108; 12741507 AB - This paper reports the comparative antimalarial efficacy of intravenous artelinate and artesunate in rats. Prior to efficacy experiments, a Plasmodium berghei-Sprague-Dawley rat model of malaria was developed, in which the clearance effects of intravenous drugs could be readily compared. In efficacy experiments, groups of P. berghei-infected rats were given 3 daily intravenous treatments of artelinate or artesunate at molar equivalent dose rates (total of 0-191.2 micromoles/kg). Artelinate was superior to artesunate in terms of clearance (100% clearance dose of 95.6 micromoles/kg (40 mg/kg) versus 191.2 micromoles/ kg for AS (73.4 mg/kg)) and parasite clearance time (1.7 +/- 0.5 days for AL versus 2.7 +/- 0.5 days for AS at a dose rate of 191.2 micromoles/kg, P < 0.01). No frank clinical toxicity was observed, though both artesunate and artelinate induced dose-related vascular necrosis at the site of injection. The necrosis was less severe and reversible when the drugs were administered via femoral, rather than tail/foot veins. The data suggest that the P. berghei-7-week-old Sprague-Dawley rat model of malaria is reproducible and useful for assessing the efficacy of antimalarials and that artelinate is at least as potent, and safe, as artesunate, the leading clinical treatment for severe malaria.

AN - 73242567; 12733677 AB - The objective was to evaluate the ability of the Test-mate ChE to determine acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity under field conditions. To mimic nerve agent exposure, the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense spiked blood samples with variable amounts of soman. Blinded to the identity of the samples, the 520th Theater Army Medical Laboratory tested the samples during a field training exercise inside their environmentally controlled mobile facility. The technicians repeated measurements for 6 consecutive days, and on 1 of the days repeated the measurements six times. The technicians accurately identified all of the samples and quantified the AChE activity. The major trend was that the Test-mate ChE is more precise and reproducible for smaller doses of soman. The results were reliable over all temperatures during the field exercise. In conclusion, the Test-mate ChE is a reliable field instrument to determine blood AChE activity.

AN - 73175704; 12686280 AB - The effects of chronic partial sleep (sleep deprivation) and extended sleep (sleep augmentation) followed by recovery sleep on oculomotor function were evaluated in normal subjects to explore the usefulness of oculomotor assessment for alertness monitoring in fitness-for-duty testing. Sixty-six commercial drivers (24-62 years, 50m/16f) participated in a 15 day study composed of 3 training days with 8h time in bed per night, 7 experimental days with subjects randomly assigned to either 3, 5, 7, or 9h time in bed, and 3 recovery nights with 8h time in bed. Data from 57 subjects were used. Saccadic velocity (SV), initial pupil diameter (IPD), latency to pupil constriction (CL), and amplitude of pupil constriction (CA) were assessed and correlated with the sleep latency test (SLT), the Stanford sleepiness scale (SSS), and simulated driving performance. Regression analyses showed that SV slowed significantly in the 3 and 5h groups, IPD decreased significantly in the 9h group, and CL increased significantly in the 3h group. SLT and SSS significantly correlated with SV, IPD, CL, and driving accidents for the 3h group, and with CL for the 5h group. Analyses also showed a significant negative correlation between decreasing SV and increasing driving accidents in the 3h group and a significant negative correlation between IPD and driving accidents for the 7h group. The results demonstrate a sensitivity primarily of SV to sleepiness, and a correlation of SV and IPD to impaired simulated driving performance, providing evidence for the potential utility of oculomotor indicators in the detection of excessive sleepiness and deterioration of complex motor performance with chronic partial sleep restriction. This paper shows a relationship between sleep deprivation and oculomotor measures, and suggests a potential utility for oculometrics in assessing operational performance readiness under sleep restricted conditions.

AN - 73160685; 12676618 AB - On 12-13 June 2001, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) convened a seven-member panel in Atlanta, Georgia, to review and discuss the current state of the science related to hair analysis, specifically its use in assessing environmental exposures in support of the agency's public health assessment activities. ATSDR invited scientific experts in the fields of hair analysis, toxicology, and medicine to participate in a discussion of such topics as analytical methods, factors affecting the interpretation of analytical results, toxicologic considerations, and data gaps and research needs. The goal of the panel was to determine the overall utility of hair analysis as a tool to evaluate exposure at hazardous waste sites. The principal lesson learned from the meeting was that, for most substances, data are insufficient to predict health effects from the concentration of the substance in hair. The presence of a substance in hair may indicate exposure (both internal and external) but does not necessarily indicate the source of exposure. Thus, before hair analysis can be considered a valid tool for assessing exposure and health impact of a particular substance, research is needed to establish standardized reference ranges, gain a better understanding of biologic variations of hair growth with age, gender, race and ethnicity, and pharmacokinetics, and further explore possible dose-response relationships. ATSDR intends to use the findings of this panel to develop educational materials to support its site work and to encourage researchers to continue to develop methods that may facilitate reliable exposure assessments.

AN - 73144767; 12665597 AB - Although DNA polymerase eta (Pol eta) and other Y family polymerases differ in sequence and function from classical DNA polymerases, they all share a similar right-handed architecture with the palm, fingers, and thumb domains. Here, we examine the role in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Pol eta of three conserved residues, tyrosine 64, arginine 67, and lysine 279, which come into close contact with the triphosphate moiety of the incoming nucleotide, in nucleotide incorporation. We find that mutational alteration of these residues reduces the efficiency of correct nucleotide incorporation very considerably. The high degree of conservation of these residues among the various Y family DNA polymerases suggests that these residues are also crucial for nucleotide incorporation in the other members of the family.

AN - 73106888; 12632077 AB - TFPI-2 (tissue factor pathway inhibitor-2) is a serine protease inhibitor that may suppress tumor cell invasion and metastasis. TFPI-2 expression is often lost in cells derived from tumors of diverse organs. We have examined whether aberrant hypermethylation of the 5' end of the TFPI-2 gene is associated with its loss of expression. After 5-azacytidine treatment of three cell lines lacking TFPI-2 expression (HT1080 fibrosarcoma cells, MCF-7 breast carcinoma cells, and LNCaP prostate carcinoma cells), TFPI-2 transcripts could be detected by RT-PCR. In these three cell lines, methylation of the 5' end of the TFPI-2 gene was detected, while two prostate carcinoma cell lines in which the TFPI-2 gene was expressed, PC-3 and DU-145, showed no methylation. However, all the three cell lines which lacked TFPI-2 expression also contained unmethylated TFPI-2 alleles. Furthermore, a transiently transfected TFPI-2 promoter was non-functional in the three cell lines, but function was attained following treatment with 5-azacytidine. Our results indicate that while methylation of the TFPI-2 gene is associated with its silencing, it is not the sole cause, and we suggest that one or more components of pathways regulating TFPI-2 expression have also undergone methylation-associated silencing in these cell lines.

This is accomplished by comparing field data to simulated data. Our 40-MHz field data are from a 100X340 m (x- and y-dimensions, respectively) survey grid containing 51 parallel survey lines. The field data were collected with the dipole oriented perpendicular to the survey line (x-dipole). The synthetic data used isotropic, x-dipole, and y-dipole antennas, and reflections were calculated using a bed topography previously defined by 3D Kirchhoff migration. The comparisons between the real and synthetic waveforms show excellent agreement, including reflection arrival times, amplitude trends, interference patterns, and false layering from out-of-plane reflections. The location of reflectors determined from exploding reflector rays explains that bed reflections rapidly sink below background noise levels when reflections originate in the antenna's E-plane. This occurs in both the simulated data and field data. Our results are of general importance for radio-glaciology because they demonstrate that inappropriate dipole orientation with respect to the specular reflection point can lead to more than 12-dB reduction in bottom reflection strength. Furthermore, a complicated bottom topography readily generates secondary, out-of-plane reflections that are easily confused with basal till layers.

This study was conducted to evaluate the stability of several components of currently used energetic materials and two chemicals that may be used in future energetic material compositions in unsaturated, moist surface soils from three military training ranges. The compounds studied were nitroglycerin (NG), pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX), octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine (HMX), hexanitrohexaazaisowurtzitane (CL-20), and 1,3,3- trinitroazetidine (TNAZ). Three soils from military training ranges were fortified using an aqueous spiking solution and the residual concentrations were measured after 0, 1, 4, 8, 14, and 29 days at 22 degrees C in the dark. The results indicate that the half-life of TNAZ and NG in all three test soils was less than one day, the half-life for PETN varied from 0.45 to 2.4 days, the half-life for RDX ranged from 94 to 154 days, the half-life for HMX varied from 133 to 2,310 days, and the half-life for CL-20 varied from 144 to 686 days.

This report summarizes 18 experiments to measure erosion rates in a soil that was frozen and thawed once and in the same unfrozen soil. We hypothesized that soil freeze-thaw (FT) processes significantly increase upland hill slope erosion during subsequent runoff events. We selected a frost-susceptible silt to provide an upper bound on this effect. For each experiment, we prepared two identical bins, one as an unfrozen control, the other to be frozen and thawed. We tested three soil-moisture ranges, three flow rates, and two slopes, and measured the cross-sectional geometry of the rills that developed and sediment losses through time for each bin. The cross-section measurements detailed erosion at specific locations along the bins; sediment loss measurements indicated erosion integrated along the entire bin. The results are the first to quantitatively define the differences in sediment loss and rill formation caused by FT cycling. We will analyze data from these experiments and do additional experiments to further define FT effects in the soil-erosion process. (However, these results already demonstrate the importance of FT weakening to soil erosion.) Good regional sediment management in cold climates requires that erosion prediction models accurately account for important processes such as soil-FT cycling to avoid significant underprediction of soil losses on hill slopes and in watersheds in cold climates.

This study concluded that the Army should develop a deployable wastewater treatment system for base camps. Development of such a system would avoid the costly set-up and take-down from installing composting operations for sludge stabilization and disinfection. The water supplies are potable at both locations. There is no longer a need to supply drinking water in plastic bottles, so eliminating them will significantly reduce the solid waste stream.

Two-dimensional NMR and molecular modeling investigations indicated that (Ala super(8,13,18))magainin 2 amide bound to DPC micelles adopts a alpha -helical secondary structure involving residues 2-16. The four C-terminal residues converge to a lose beta -turn structure. (Ala super(8,13,18))magainin 2 amide bound to SDS micelles adopts a alpha -helical secondary structure involving residues 7-18. The C- and N-terminal residues exhibited a great deal of conformational flexibility. Magainin 1 bound to DPC micelles adopts a alpha -helical secondary structure involving residues 4-19. The C-terminal residues converge to a lose beta -turn structure. The results of this investigation indicate hydrophobic interactions are the major contributors to stabilizing the induced helical structure of the micelle-bound peptides. Electrostatic interactions between the polar head groups of the micelle and the cationic side chains of the peptides define the positions along the peptide backbone where the helical structures begin and end.

Smooth organisms present O-polysaccharides (OPS) on their surface. The wboA gene, which codes for the enzyme glycosyl transferase, is essential for the assembly of O-chain in Brucella. Deletion of wboA in smooth, virulent B. melitensis 16M results in a rough mutant designated WRR51. Unlike B. abortus, both smooth and rough strains of B. melitensis are resistant to complement-mediated killing. To determine the role of surface OPS in the interactions of B. melitensis with monocytes/macrophages (M/M), 16M and WRR51 were transformed with the plasmid pBBR1MCS-6y encoding green fluorescent protein, and the transformants were used to infect human mononuclear phagocytes with and without fresh human serum as a source of complement. Human monocytes were cultured in the presence of macrophage colony-stimulating factor to allow their differentiation into macrophages during the course of infection. Intracellular bacteria were easily visualized using fluorescence microscopy. Infection in M/M, identified by surface staining and fate of infected phagocytes, was quantitated by flow cytometry. Rough bacteria were internalized, with no requirement for opsonization by serum, at a higher rate than smooth organisms. Smooth B. melitensis survived and multiplied for at least 6 days inside M/M, but rough organisms were eliminated by death of the infected cells. In human monocytes cultured for 1 day without serum in order to trigger the apoptotic pathway, infection by rough brucellae accelerated phagocyte death; smooth brucellae inhibited apoptosis. This study suggests that the presence of surface OPS on live B. melitensis benefits the bacterium by preventing the death of macrophages, Brucella's preferred target for intracellular replication.

To systematically identify clinical diagnoses reported more frequently after vaccination than before, all military personnel were retrospectively assigned to pre- or post-vaccination cohorts. Cohort assignments were based on vaccination statuses each day of the 3-year surveillance period. For each cohort, rates of hospitalizations and ambulatory visits for 843 specific diagnoses were calculated using data in a public health surveillance system. Compared to the pre-vaccination cohort, the post-vaccination cohort had statistically higher rates of hospitalizations for 17 diagnoses, of ambulatory visits for 34 diagnoses, and in both clinical settings for one diagnosis (malaria). After accounting for systematic differences in coding/reporting and residual confounding, the number and nature of clinical diagnoses more frequent after anthrax vaccination than before were consistent with expectations due to random variation. This surveillance suggests that Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed has few, if any, clinically significant adverse effects.

Lupinus sulphureus ssp. kincaidii (Kincaid's lupine), a threatened species and the primary larval host plant of the endangered Icaricia icarioides fenderi (Fender's blue butterfly), was historically a panmictic metapopulation. Habitat fragmentation may be causing many of the Kincaid's lupine colonies to display typical symptoms of inbreeding depression, such as low seed production. Hand outcrosses on bagged inflorescences significantly increased seed set and seed fitness compared to open pollination and within-colony pollen treatments. Natural seed set was positively correlated with an increase in the number of Kincaid's lupine patches, suggesting that population size limits seed set. An increase in fruit set was positively correlated with Kincaid's lupine raceme number, raceme density, and the number of lupine patches, demonstrating that floral display and population size increase pollinator service. Restoration of Kincaid's lupine populations should consider measures that lessen the effects of inbreeding depression, especially in small, isolated populations, for the long-term persistence of the species.

Skin sites of the hairless guinea pig exposed to SM vapor for 8 minutes were harvested at 3, 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours postexposure. Immunohistochemical detection of basal cell apoptosis was performed using the Apop Tag in situ apoptosis labeling kit. Only occasional apoptotic basal cells (BC) were observed in nonexposed and perilesional control sites. At lesional sites, apoptosis of BC was not detected at 3 hours postexposure. However, at 6 hours and 12 hours postexposure, 18% and 59% of BC were apoptotic, respectively. At 24 and 48 hours postexposure, individual apoptotic basal cells were not clearly recognizable due to necrosis. At the ultrastructural level, degenerating BC exhibited typical apoptotic morphology including nuclear condensation and chromatin margination. The results suggest that apoptotic cell death is a cytotoxic mechanism with the number of BC undergoing apoptosis significantly increasing from 6 to 12 hours postexposure. In addition, because necrosis is preferential at 24 hours postexposure, we believe that SM-induced cell death involves early apoptosis and late necrosis, which temporally overlap to produce a single cell death pathway along an apoptotic-necrotic continuum.

This investigation examined alternatives for pollution abatement primarily through physical modifications to the system. The investigation included field surveys, computation of pollutant loads, and application of hydrodynamic and eutrophication models. A eutrophication model developed for temperate estuaries was successfully transferred to San Juan Bay Estuary. Results indicate two primary modifications reduce eutrophication. The first clears a constricted channel to the interior of the system and promotes flushing. The second fills deep holes in which anoxic conditions promote sediment nutrient release to the water column. Major reductions in pathogen concentration require regional controls on sources.

AN - 73084404; 12473669 AB - Streptococcal pyrogenic enterotoxin C (Spe-C) is a superantigen virulence factor produced by Streptococcus pyogenes that activates T-cells polyclonally. The biologically active form of Spe-C is thought to be a homodimer containing an essential zinc coordination site on each subunit, consisting of the residues His(167), His(201), and Asp(203). Crystallographic data suggested that receptor specificity is dependent on contacts between the zinc coordination site of Spe-C and the beta-chain of the major histocompatibility complex type II (MHCII) molecule. Our results indicate that only a minor fraction of dimer is present at T-cell stimulatory concentrations of Spe-C following mutation of the unpaired side chain of cysteine at residue 27 to serine. Mutations of amino acid residues His(167), His(201), or Asp(203) had only minor effects on protein stability but resulted in greatly diminished MHCII binding, as measured by surface plasmon resonance with isolated receptor/ligand pairs and flow cytometry with MHCII-expressing cells. However, with the exception of the mutants D203A and D203N, mutation of the zinc-binding site of Spe-C did not significantly impact T-cell activation. The mutation Y76A, located in a polar pocket conserved among most superantigens, resulted in significant loss of T-cell stimulation, although no effect was observed on the overall binding to human MHCII molecules, perhaps because of the masking of this lower affinity interaction by the dominant zinc-dependent binding. To a lesser extent, mutations of side chains found in a second conserved MHCII alpha-chain-binding site consisting of a hydrophobic surface loop decreased T-cell stimulation. Our results demonstrate that dimerization and zinc coordination are not essential for biological activity of Spe-C and suggest the contribution of an alternative MHCII binding mode to T-cell activation.

Each contained a unique distribution of polysaccharide chain lengths, with average lengths estimated at 40 or 400 residues. Models for rigid molecule tumbling, including two based on helical conformations proposed for the polysaccharide, could not explain the NMR measurements. In general for these helices, the correlation times for their overall tumbling that best account for the NMR data correspond to polysaccharide chains between 9 and 18 residues in length, far short of the average lengths estimated for either solution. The effects of internal motions incorporated into these helices was modeled with an effective correlation time representing helix tumbling as well as internal motion. This modeling demonstrated that even with extreme amounts of internal motion, "flexible helices" of 25 residues or more still could not produce the NMR measurements. All data are consistent with internal and segmental motions dominating the nuclear magnetic relaxation of the polysaccharide and not molecular tumbling. Statistical distributions of correlation times have been found specifically for the pyranose rings, linkage groups, and methoxy groups that can account for the measured relaxation times and NOE enhancements. The distributions suggest that considerable flexibility attends the polysaccharide in solution, and the ranges of motional frequencies for the linkage groups and pyranose rings are comparable. We conclude that the Group B meningococcal polysaccharide is a random coil chain in solution, and therefore, does not have antigenic epitopes dependent upon a rigid, ordered conformation.

AN - 85372336; pmid-12705817 AB - Voice disorders, specifically vocal fatigue, are more commonly reported by women than by men. Previously, 4 women with normal untrained voices read loudly for 2 hours in an attempt to fatigue the voice. Vocal function deteriorated, as indicated by increases in phonation threshold pressure (PTP) and self-perceived phonatory effort. The increase in PTP was delayed or attenuated to some degree in 3 of the women when they drank ample amounts of water before the experiment. The current study examined the same vocal-loading task and water-drinking condition in 4 vocally normal men. PTP increased after the loud-reading task. Although 2 of the men appeared to benefit from increased systemic hydration (PTP increased more when they were underhydrated than well-hydrated), the other 2 men's data changed in the opposite direction. Phonatory effort correlated well with PTP; this varied across subject and pitch. Laryngeal endoscopy revealed an anterior glottal gap in two men after the loud-reading task. Amplitude of vocal fold vibration was judged to be reduced after the loud-reading task in three subjects when underhydrated and one subject when well hydrated. The high between-subject variability prohibits a conclusion that drinking water is beneficial to vocal function in men, but all subjects studied to date demonstrated detrimental vocal effects of prolonged loud talking.

AN - 73089390; 12623056 AB - An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using botulinum neurotoxin serotype B recombinant fragment C (rBoNTB(HC)) was developed to measure specific humoral immune responses of monkeys vaccinated with a vaccine consisting of rBoNTB(HC). Several fundamental parameters for a bioassay were evaluated. The evaluation results demonstrated that using BoNTB(HC) as the capture antigen led to a specific and sensitive ELISA for botulinum type B antibody with excellent precision, accuracy, and linearity. There was a good correlation (r=0.91) between ELISA titers and neutralization bioassay titers. Experimental results suggested that the ELISA could be useful for detecting botulinum type B antibody levels and may supplement mouse neutralization bioassays during planned clinical manufacturing and clinical trials of rBoNTB(HC) vaccine.

AN - 73080720; 12627658 AB - A life-table response experiment was conducted to ascertain the demographic effects of low-level cadmium exposure on two strains, BS90 and NMRI, of the freshwater gastropod Biomphalaria glabrata. Snails were exposed to cadmium continuously from the embryonic stage through adulthood. Results indicated that cadmium significantly affected a number of individual-based parameters, including %hatch, juvenile survival, and adult survival in both strains. Also, fecundity and time to maturity were significantly affected in the NMRI strain. A stage-based, deterministic, population model indicated that population growth rate (lambda) was significantly affected by cadmium. Elasticity analysis indicated that juvenile survival, in general, had the greatest contribution to lambda. Decomposition analysis indicated that the effects of cadmium on the juvenile stage in BS90 and the embryonic stage in NMRI contributed most to cadmium-induced changes in lambda. The BS90 strain was more sensitive to cadmium toxicity than NMRI. Moreover, the two strains differed in pattern of response with different aspects of their respective life histories contributing to cadmium-induced changes in lambda. Comparisons were also made between the main model, based on a Z transformation of the life-cycle graph, and more commonly used matrix models.

The LIDAR data were supplemented with conventional bathymetry measurements from five large inlets to obtain predictive relationships for the limiting (minimum) depth over crest of the ebb shoal. The sites, all located on sandy coasts, were chosen to cover a range in tidal amplitude, tidal prism, and average annual wave height. Wave-dominated inlets exhibited steeper slopes on their seaward margins than tide-dominated inlets. Slopes on ebb shoals typically do not exceed 4-6 degrees , with seaward slopes being 1-2 degrees steeper than landward slopes. Dredged entrance channels have steeper slopes than natural channels, with maximum slopes immediately after dredging reaching 6-8 degrees . At one inlet having a series of LIDAR surveys, entrance channel maintenance dredging created 3-5 degrees side slopes that decreased 0.5-1 degrees /year for the next 2 years to achieve a typical slope of 3 degrees along much of the channel. Greatest bottom slopes are found in scour holes near jetties (10-12 degrees ) and at the entrance bars (8-10 degrees ) of (tideless) Great Lakes harbors. Limiting depth over crest of the ebb shoals is predicted well by the parameter (H (sub S) P) (super 1/4) , where H (sub S) is the average annual significant wave height, and P is the spring tidal prism. High correlation was also found between limiting depth and prism, and with limiting depth and wave height.

This was the identification of areas that meet both the jurisdictional requirements under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and the California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG) Section 1600 Code at a watershed scale. Although the delineation is highly accurate at the planning level, it is not specific to any one site. Thus, a planning level wetland delineation does not replace the need for a jurisdictional wetland delineation from the Corps of Engineers (COE) permitting program, or the CDFG Section 1600 requirements. As such, this report describes the baseline occurrence of aquatic resources that were observed in these watersheds at the time of the study during the period between August 2001 and May 2002. A total of 16,043 ha (39,643 ac) of aquatic resources in the riparian areas, and 12,701 km (7892 miles) of intermittent streams were delineated as Waters of the United States within both watersheds.

The strength or weakness of a pavement structure is based on the performance of the subgrade. The current subgrade failure criteria used in many mechanistic design/evaluation methodologies were surmised mainly from tests that did not consider the effects of subgrade soil type or moisture content. Because of these limitations the current FHWA-sponsored Subgrade Performance Study was designed to investigate and upgrade the failure criteria of subgrade materials. The project plans to study the effect of subgrade type and moisture content on the failure criteria. This international study includes testing at the U.S. Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory, where test sections are being constructed using four subgrade types and three moisture contents and subjected to accelerated loading. The sections are instrumented with stress, strain, moisture and temperature sensors In this study the ambient temperature is held at around 20 degrees C. This report provides an overview of the test program and testing procedure. Subsequent reports will detail the construction of each test section, the data acquired and the results.

We introduce a new technique for cell dissociation of hematopoietic malignancies that preserves tissue for histology. This is especially important with small specimens for which this type of correlation is critical. Methods Fresh tissue from lymph node, gastrointestinal (GI) tract, skin, and other soft tissue biopsies, in addition to cores of inaspirable bone marrows, were briefly vortexed until the RPMI cell culture medium became cloudy. Larger specimens such as lymph nodes were sectioned before disaggregating, whereas smaller ones were vortexed in toto. Resultant flow cytometric analyses were compared with the histology and, in some cases, the immunohistochemistry (IHC) to determine whether the data were concordant. Cell suspensions of 104 specimens-composed of 48 lymph nodes, 19 bone marrow cores (BMCs), 11 GI biopsies, 11 skin/soft tissue biopsies, and 15 miscellaneous specimens-were prepared via vortex disaggregation. Results Flow cytometric analysis of 96 specimens (92.3%) showed adequacy of material and diagnostic correlation with the histology and IHC. Of the eight cases (7.7%) that were discordant, seven were attributable to significant specimen fibrosis or necrosis. With respect to tissue type, this method produced diagnostic cell suspensions for most lymph nodes (95.8%), GI biopsies (90.9%), and BMCs (89.5%); however, it was less useful for skin/soft tissue samples (81.8%). Conclusions Disaggregation of tissue for flow cytometric analysis by vortexing appears to provide adequate and representative cellular material. This technique is ideal for inaspirable bone marrows and small biopsies where tissue preservation for histology is paramount.

A high degree of heterogeneity was found among the 12 Thai isolates, with the C3 strain most commonly found. The abundance of the C3 strain of O. tsutsugamushi is of particular concern because doxycycline and chloramphenicol resistance have previously been reported in this strain.

Active surveillance showed that localized reactions were common and occurred more often in women than men. Five patients were reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, but only one event could be definitively attributed to immunization, a large localized reaction. Two separate cohort studies, one using nested data from a standardized health risk appraisal instrument and the other comparing rates of outpatient visits and hospitalizations, did not reveal significant differences between AVA-immunized and unimmunized individuals. Our findings suggest that AVA is relatively reactogenic but do not indicate serious adverse health effects due to immunization.

The 459 tetracycline-resistant isolates identified were then screened by PCR analysis to determine the distribution in these strains of tetracycline efflux resistance determinants belonging to classes A to E, G, and H that have been identified in gram-negative bacteria. Only classes A to D were represented in these strains. Although Tet B was the predominant determinant in all geographical locations, there were geographical and species differences in the distribution of resistance determinants. An allele of tet(A), designated tet(A)-1, was identified and sequenced, and the 8.6-kb plasmid containing determinant Tet A-1, designated pSSTA-1, was found to have homologies to portions of a Salmonella enterica cryptic plasmid and the broad-host- range resistance plasmid RSF1010. This allele and pSSTA-1 were used as epidemiological markers to monitor clonal and horizontal transmission of determinant Tet A-1. An analysis of serotype, distribution of tetracycline resistance determinants, and resistance profiles indicated that both clonal spread and horizontal transfer had contributed to the spread of specific tetracycline resistance determinants in these populations and demonstrated the use of these parameters as an epidemiological tool to follow the transmission of determinants and strains.

The current vaccine licensed for human use requires a six-dose primary series and yearly boosters and causes reactogenicity in up to 30% of vaccine recipients. A minimally reactogenic vaccine requiring fewer inoculations is warranted. Venezuelan equine encephalitis (VEE) virus has been configured for use as a vaccine vector for a wide variety of immunogens. The VEE vaccine vector is composed of a self-replicating RNA (replicon) containing all of the VEE virus nonstructural genes and a multiple-cloning site in place of the VEE structural genes. Four different anthrax vaccines were constructed by cloning the protective antigen (PA) gene from B. anthracis into the VEE vaccine vector. The anthrax vaccines were produced by assembling the vectors into propagation-deficient VEE replicon particles in vitro. A/J mice inoculated subcutaneously with three doses of the mature 83-kDa PA vaccine were completely protected from challenge with the Sterne strain of B. anthracis. Similar results were obtained with vaccines composed of the PA gene fused to either the B. anthracis secretory sequence or to a tissue plasminogen activator secretory sequence in three additional mouse strains. Mice were unprotected from challenge after inoculation with the carboxy-terminal 63-kDa PA vaccine. These results suggest that these VEE-vectored vaccines may be suitable as candidate vaccines against anthrax.

A chief criticism is that model predictions are compared only to discharge data. The physically based, hydrologic model CASC2D is reformulated such that soil moistures and fluxes can be computed using Richards' equation. The gridded surface subsurface hydrologic analysis (GSSHA) model is calibrated and verified against outlet discharge measurements during the growing season. The verified model is used to simulate an extended period during which measurements of soil moisture are available. Though soil moisture data are not used in the calibration and verification efforts, the model reproduces both the trends and the magnitude of soil moisture during the growing season. With additional formulation enhancements, soil moistures during the nongrowing season are also reproduced within a root-mean- square error of 0.1. However, more work is needed to understand the underprediction of runoff during the nongrowing season.

AN - 71318122; 12675948 AB - There is no known biochemical basis for the adverse neurological events attributed to mefloquine. Identification of genes modulated by toxic agents using microarrays may provide sufficient information to generate hypotheses regarding their mode of action. However, this utility may be compromised if sample sizes are too low or the filtering methods used to identify differentially expressed genes are inappropriate. The transcriptional changes induced in rat neuroblastoma cells by a physiological dose of mefloquine (10 micro-molar) were investigated using Affymetrix arrays. A large sample size was used (total of 16 arrays). Genes were ranked by P-value (t-test). RT-PCR was used to confirm (or reject) the expression changes of several of the genes with the lowest P-values. Different P-value filtering methods were compared in terms of their ability to detect these differentially expressed genes. A retrospective power analysis was then performed to determine whether the use of lower sample sizes might also have detected those genes with altered transcription. Based on RT-PCR, mefloquine upregulated cJun, IkappaB and GADD153. Reverse Holm-Bonferroni P-value filtering was superior to other methods in terms of maximizing detection of differentially expressed genes but not those with unaltered expression. Reduction of total microarray sample size (< 10) impaired the capacity to detect differentially expressed genes.

The changes in gene expression induced by mefloquine suggest that the ER might be a neuronal target of the drug.

AN - 85404712; pmid-12597168 AB - This work extends a mathematical approach developed recently for monopoles to describe the sound energy radiated by a rectilinearly moving dipole that changes direction along its trajectory. Although the dipole travels with constant speed, it undergoes acceleration by reversing its direction during a finite time interval along its path. This work determines the joint angular and frequency distribution of the radiated energy, its angular distribution, and the total radiated energy output. Results for the radiated energy are systematized by expressing the radiation integrals in terms of hypergeometric functions. This procedure simplifies the evaluations, particularly at low Mach numbers, and permits the comparison of results to the earlier monopole case.

AN - 85403952; pmid-12597170 AB - A systematic description of sound refraction in the near-ground atmosphere is developed by modeling the effective sound-speed gradient with Monin-Obukhov similarity theory. The resulting gradient equation can be recast in a form involving just three nondimensional variables. The first is the ratio of a sound-speed scale (representing the strength of the turbulent fluctuations in the sound speed) to the friction velocity. The second is the ratio of the actual height to a transitional height where contributions from the near-ground wind-speed gradients and the adiabatic lapse rate are roughly balanced. The third is simply the cosine of the angle between the propagation direction and mean wind direction. When the magnitude of the sound-speed scale/friction velocity ratio is large, refraction is unconditionally upward or downward, depending on sign of the ratio. A small value for this ratio indicates nearly neutral atmospheric stratification, for which refraction is determined by the wind direction for small values of the nondimensional height and is upward for larger values. The contribution to refraction from air humidity is determined as a function of the Bowen ratio and found to be significant over wet surfaces. Weather conditions appropriate for measurement of sound pressure levels are also discussed.

AN - 85378331; pmid-12803012 AB - Although the vast majority of thyroid cancers are well-differentiated and carry an excellent prognosis, several rare tumors occasionally involve the thyroid gland and require unique treatment paradigms. Anaplastic carcinoma of the thyroid is an extremely aggressive neoplasm that is generally best managed with surgery followed by a multimodality regimen of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Squamous cell carcinoma of the thyroid often mimics the clinical course of anaplastic carcinoma and is best treated with aggressive surgery followed by postoperative radiotherapy. Treatment and prognosis of lymphoma of the thyroid varies depending upon the specific pathological subtype, with combination chemotherapy and radiation therapy used primarily. Sarcomas of the thyroid are primarily managed with surgery, although radiation and chemotherapy are indicated in some cases.

AN - 85235299; pmid-12675391 AB - Researchers have rarely examined stressful environments and psychological characteristics as predictors of driving behavior in the same study. The authors hypothesized that (a) safer drivers more accurately assess physical and emotional traffic hazards and (b) stress and emotional states elevate crash risk. The hypotheses were evaluated with procedural and declarative tacit driving knowledge tests requiring assessment of emotional and contextual hazards and with accident reports describing crash antecedents, including stressful events and environmental conditions. Analyses identified separate driving knowledge factors corresponding to emotional and contextual hazards that were significantly related to the crash criteria. Accident report analyses show that stress significantly elevates at-fault crash risk. The results demonstrate the importance of experiential knowledge acquired without instruction (procedural or tacit knowledge) and provide safety recommendations.

AN - 73268216; 12760419 AB - Botulinum neurotoxin serotypes A and E (BoNT/A and BoNT/E) block neurotransmitter release by cleaving the 206-amino-acid SNARE protein, SNAP-25. For each BoNT serotype, cleavage of SNAP-25 results in the loss of intact protein, the production of an N-terminal truncated protein, and the generation of a small C-terminal peptide. Peptides that mimic the C-terminal fragments of SNAP-25 following BoNT/A or BoNT/E cleavage were shown to depress transmitter release in bovine chromaffin cells and in Aplysia buccal ganglion cells. Similarly, the N-terminal-truncated SNAP-25 resulting from BoNT/A or BoNT/E cleavage has been found to inhibit transmitter exocytosis in various systems. With one exception, however, the inhibitory action of truncated SNAP-25 has not been demonstrated at a well-defined cholinergic synapse. The goal of the current study was to determine the level of inhibition of neurotransmitter release by N-terminal BoNT/A- or BoNT/E-truncated SNAP-25 in two different neuronal systems: cholinergically coupled Aplysia neurons and rat hippocampal cell cultures. Both truncated SNAP-25 products inhibited depolarization-dependent glutamate release from hippocampal cultures and depressed synaptic transmission in Aplysia buccal ganglion cells. These results suggest that truncated SNAP-25 can compete with endogenous SNAP-25 for binding with other SNARE proteins involved in transmitter release, thus inhibiting neurotransmitter exocytosis.

AN - 73145982; 12667881 AB - Prostate cancer is second only to lung and bronchial cancer as the leading cause of cancer death in men. Local treatment, surgery, and radiation remain the mainstay of treatment for early-stage disease. However, in locally advanced and advanced disease, there has been considerable evolution in the hormonal therapies. Suppression of testosterone production, the primary goal of hormonal therapy, may be accomplished with the use of estrogens, antiandrogens, and agonists and antagonists of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH). This article provides an overview of the primary hormonal therapies currently used in prostate cancer. Estrogen therapy was initially the predominant medical form of hormone manipulation and an alternative to orchiectomy. However, serious thrombogenic side effects were associated with its use, which decreased after the introduction of LHRH agonists in the 1980s. Many of the side effects occurring with oral estrogen therapy may be modulated by parenteral administration, and thus estrogen use is being revisited. LHRH agonists effectively reduce testosterone levels to castration levels (<50 ng/mL) within 2 to 4 weeks, although their use is associated with tumor flare. Antiandrogen monotherapy may offer quality-of-life benefits over treatment with androgen deprivation. The additive benefit of combined androgen blockade is yet to be determined. Recent evidence suggests that hormonal therapy may offer a survival benefit when initiated in earlier stages of prostate cancer. Future investigations will be directed to determining the most efficacious regimens.

AN - 73120813; 12643036 AB - Biperiden is an anticholinergic compound that has demonstrated effectiveness for treating organophosphate-induced seizure/convulsions. The plasma levels of biperiden associated with this efficacy have not yet been defined. In this study, the pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of biperiden after intramuscular administration of 0.5 mg/kg were conducted while monitoring pharmacodynamic (electroencephalographic) data in soman-exposed guinea pigs. Overall, 59% of the animals had seizures terminated within 30 min of the biperiden administration. The mean time to seizure termination was 15.9 min. The pharmacokinetics of biperiden after i.m. administration to guinea pigs were best described by a one-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination. The maximal plasma biperiden concentration (34.4 ng/mL) in seizure-terminated animals occurred at 26.3 min. Extensive partitioning into peripheral tissues was noted supporting the relatively large volume of distribution observed. Maximal biperiden concentrations in the cortex and brain stem were found at 30 min and were 2.3 and 1.7 times greater, respectively, than that in plasma. The time for maximal plasma concentration was found to corresponded well with the mean time to seizure termination following drug administration.

AN - 73110639; 12641414 AB - Specific mutations associated with attenuation of Venezuelan equine encephalitis (VEE) virus in rodent models were identified during efforts to develop an improved VEE vaccine. Analogous mutations were produced in full-length cDNA clones of the Cba 87 strain of western equine encephalitis (WEE) virus by site-directed mutagenesis in an attempt to develop an improved WEE vaccine. Isogenic viral strains with these mutations were recovered after transfection of baby hamster kidney cells with infectious RNA. We evaluated two of these strains (WE2102 and WE2130) for their ability to replicate in and be transmitted by Culex tarsalis, the principal natural vector of WEE virus in the United States. Each of the vaccine candidates contained a deletion of the PE2 furin cleavage site and a secondary mutation in the E1 or E2 glycoprotein. Both of these potential candidates replicated in mosquitoes significantly less efficiently than did either wild-type WEE (Cba 87) virus or the parental clone (WE2000). Likewise, after intrathoracic inoculation, mosquitoes transmitted the vaccine candidate strains significantly less efficiently than they transmitted either the wild-type or the parental clone. One-day-old chickens vaccinated with either of the two vaccine candidates did not become viremic when challenged with virulent WEE virus two weeks later. Mutations that result in less efficient replication in or transmission by mosquitoes should enhance vaccine safety and reduce the possibility of accidental introduction of the vaccine strain to unintentional hosts.

AN - 73022024; 12584162 AB - Oxidatively damaged bases in the genome are likely to be responsible for mutations leading to sporadic carcinogenesis. Two structurally similar DNA glycosylases, NTH1 and OGG1, which are able to excise most of these damaged bases, were identified previously in mammalian cells. A distinct family, consisting of two human DNA glycosylases orthologous to enzymes in Escherichia coli, has recently been characterized; they have overlapping substrate ranges with NTH1 and OGG1. The presence of multiple enzymes with potential back-up functions underscores the importance of removing both endogenously and exogenously generated oxidatively damaged bases from the genome, and may explain why no cancer or other disease phenotype has so far been linked to the deficiency of a single DNA glycosylase.

AN - 72998953; 12556503 AB - Genetic studies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae have indicated the requirement of DNA polymerase (Pol) zeta for mutagenesis induced by UV light and by other DNA damaging agents. However, on its own, Pol zeta is highly inefficient at replicating through DNA lesions; rather, it promotes their mutagenic bypass by extending from the nucleotide inserted opposite the lesion by another DNA polymerase. So far, such a role for Pol zeta has been established for cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers, (6-4) dipyrimidine photoproducts, and abasic sites. Here, we examine whether Pol zeta can replicate through the 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) and O(6)-methylguanine (m6G) lesions. We chose these two lesions for this study because the replicative polymerase, Pol delta, can replicate through them, albeit weakly. We found that Pol zeta is very inefficient at inserting nucleotides opposite both these lesions, but it can efficiently extend from the nucleotides inserted opposite them by Pol delta. Also, the most efficient bypass of 8-oxoG and m6G lesions occurs when Pol delta is combined with Pol zeta, indicating a role for Polzeta in extending from the nucleotides inserted opposite these lesions by Pol delta. Thus, Pol zeta is a highly specialized polymerase that can proficiently extend from the primer ends opposite DNA lesions, irrespective of their degree of geometric distortion. Pol zeta, however, is unusually sensitive to geometric distortion of the templating residue, as it is highly inefficient at incorporating nucleotides even opposite the moderately distorting 8-oxoG and m6G lesions.

AN - 72879463; 12437957 AB - The purpose of this study is to investigate the enzymatic degradation behaviors of porous poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) foams in the presence of trypsin, in comparison with their hydrolytic degradation. To inspect the effect of trypsin on the degradation of PLGA, both the hydrolytic and enzymatic degradation of non-porous PLGA samples were also performed. The changes of molecular weight and molecular weight distribution (polydispersity) during the degradation were determined by gel permeation chromatograph. And the changes of weight, thickness and morphology with the degradation were also measured. The degradation of PLGA displayed as two stages. In the first stage, the molecular weight of PLGA decreased continuously with degradation time, whereas little weight loss occurred. But in the second stage, the molecular weight of PLGA had decreased to a low value and was almost unchanged with time, while the sample experienced significant weight loss. And it was found that the presence of trypsin could significantly accelerate the weight loss rates of all the PLGA samples, but it caused little difference in the decrease of molecular weight and the change of PLGA composition between the enzymatic and hydrolytic degradation. Therefore, the enzymatic degradation of PLGA was still primarily a hydrolysis process. A mechanism of enzymatic degradation was proposed that the trypsin could enhance the weight loss of PLGA by acting as surfactant to push the dispersion of degradation products into water even though they could not dissolve in water.

Unidirectional irregular waves were generated over a fine-sand beach. Beach-profile shape reached equilibrium after 1,330 and 280 min of spilling and plunging wave actions, respectively. Near the main breaker line, the profile evolved differently under plunging and spilling breakers. Across most of the midsurf zone dominated by surf bores, the equilibrium profile shapes were similar. Uniform energy dissipation per unit volume at equilibrium, as assumed in the Dean 1977 model and often used in cross-shore sediment-transport modeling, was measured for both cases across most of the surf zone except at the main breaker line, where a much greater rate of dissipation occurred. The bar/trough formation and maintenance were closely related to the local patterns of sediment suspension and bed scour at the plunging point.

The results indicate that high-resolution seismic reflection can be used to accurately determine the thickness and horizontal distribution of debris-rich ice at the base of the glacier. The basal ice thickness about 30% over a 300-m distance as the glacier flows out of an overdeepening. The reflection events ranged from 80- to 140-m depth along the longitudinal axis of the glacier. The dominant reflection is from the contact between clean, englacial ice and the underlying debris-rich basal ice, but a strong characteristic reflection is also observed from the base of the debris-rich ice (bottom of the glacier). The P-wave propagation velocity at the surface and throughout the englacial ice is 3600 m/s, and the frequency content of the reflections is in excess of 800 Hz. Supporting drilling data indicate that depth estimates are correct to within + or -1 m.

Each of these stages has distinct characteristics which drive ecosystem processes. During the two autumnal stages (Early Snow and Early Cold) soils remain warm, unfrozen water is present, and the highest rates of cold-season soil respiration occur. The next two stages (Deep Cold and Late Cold) are characterized by a frozen active layer with decreasing temperature. Thaw is critical in determining the length of the growing season and the resumption of biological processes. Deep Cold and Late Cold result from a radiation deficit, show little interannual variation, and will be resistant to change under almost any reasonable climate change scenario. These are also the stages with the least amount of biological activity and have the least impact on the ecosystem. However, Early Snow, Early Cold and Thaw stages vary significantly from year to year, have more ecosystem implications, and are also the most likely to undergo significant change in timing and character as the arctic climate changes. This 5-fold subdivision is useful for framing discussions of biophysical interactions during the arctic winter and for focusing attention on critical cold-season periods.

Seismic and geotechnical investigations established that a maximum credible earthquake with moment magnitude 6.6 occurring 20 km away on the Humboldt fault zone could induce liquefaction of the foundation soil under the lower portions of both upstream and downstream slopes. Numerous seismic retrofit solutions were studied under the Dam Safety Assurance Program of the Corps of Engineers, including the extreme options of "no action" and "replace embankment". A preliminary evaluation of all identified alternatives was done to facilitate the selection of the best rehabilitation method. An initial screening of the potential remediation alternatives was based on the following acceptance criteria: (1) Safety requirement (acceptable factor of safety and deformations for post-earthquake condition); (2) Economic requirement (the annualized cost of modification should not exceed the annual project benefit); (3) Maintain project purpose (recreation, water supply, fish and wildlife, flood control, water quality, and navigation); and (4) Technical feasibility (feasibility under standard construction procedures, verifiability of results, safety during construction, etc.). Stabilization of the foundation soil under both the upstream and the downstream slopes was selected as the most efficient option. Jet grouting through pre-drilled holes from a platform built on the slope was the preferred technology for the upstream treatment. Temporary removal of the lower portion of the slope and improvement of the liquefiable zone of the foundation soil by soil mixing was considered the best solution for the downstream side. The preliminary design was intended to ensure a factor of safety in excess of 1.2 for post-earthquake stability with liquefaction expected to be induced by the maximum credible earthquake.

However, recent studies of sediment in meltwater discharging from vents along the margin of the Matanuska Glacier in south-central Alaska show bed load to be <1% of the total load despite the availability of coarse material at and near the glacier bed. A possible explanation for this is that much of the coarse material is being trapped within the subglacial drainage system due to an adverse slope of the glacier bed near the terminus. An estimate of the mass of coarse material potentially being trapped was calculated by determining the grain-size distribution of the debris-rich basal ice and subglacial sediment at the Matanuska and measuring the suspended sediment flux in meltwater streams draining the glacier for a period of five consecutive melt seasons. The results show that 1.14 X 10 (super 8) to 8.72 X 10 (super 8) kg of coarse material could be trapped at the glacier bed each year. If deposited within 1 km of the glacier terminus this would be equivalent to a layer 1.2 to 9.4 cm thick. How the coarse sediment might be distributed, however, would depend on the geometry of the adverse slope(s) and the type and pattern of the subglacial drainage system.

AN - 51173069; 2003-018222 AB - In-situ bio-remediation is a viable cleanup alternative for aquifers contaminated by hydrocarbons such as BTEX. Transport models of varying complexity and capabilities are used to quantify their degradation. A model that has gained wide acceptance in applications is BIOPLUME II, which assumes that oxygen-limited biodegradation takes place as an instantaneous reaction. In this work we have employed theoretical analysis, using non-dimensional variables, and numerical modelling to establish a quantitative criterion demarcating the range of validity of the instantaneous reaction approximation against biodegradation kinetics. Oxygen was the limiting species and sorption was ignored. This criterion relates [Da]T (sub o) , the Dahmkohler number at oxygen depletion, to O (sub o) (super *) , the ratio of initial to input oxygen concentration, [Da]T (sub o) > or =0.7(O (sub o) (super *) ) (super 2) +0.1O (sub o) (super *) +1.8. The derived [Da]T (sub o) reflects the intrinsic characteristics of the physical transport and of the biochemical reaction, including the effect of biomass density. Relative availability of oxygen and hydrocarbons exerts a small influence on results. Theory, verified and refined via numerical simulations, showed that significant deviations of instantaneous reactions from kinetics are to be expected in the space-time region s Na(v)1.3 > Na(v)1.8 > Na(v)1.1 > Na(v)1.7 (rBII > rBIII > PN3 > rBI > PN1). Veratridine treatment of neuronal cells produced neurotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner (0.25-20 micro M). Neuronal injury caused by a dose of veratridine producing 80% cell death (2.5 micro M) significantly, and exclusively down-regulated the Na(v)1.1 gene. However, treatment of neurons with RS100642 (200 micro M) reversed the down-regulation of the Na(v)1.1 gene expression caused by veratridine. Our findings document for the first time quantitative and relative changes in the expression of various NaCh genes in neurons following injury produced by selective activation of voltage-gated sodium channels, and suggest that the Na(v)1.1 sodium channel gene may play a key role in the neuronal injury/recovery process.

AN - 73422393; 12835117 AB - While the role of apoptosis in neuronal injury is continually being re-defined, approaches to intervene in the progression of apoptotic injury have been documented to provide neuroprotection against a variety of insults. The present studies were undertaken to systematically study the effects of certain neuroprotective agents against neuronal apoptosis mediated by staurosporine (ST). ST (0.01-5 micro M) produced a dose-related apoptotic injury (as characterized by cellular morphology, 'Comet' assay analysis [single cell gel electrophoresis] and caspase-3 activation) in primary cultures of forebrain neurons. ST significantly increased caspase-3 activity. The NMDA receptor subtype non-selective antagonist dizocilpine [(+) MK-801; 0.1-50 micro M] and a novel sodium channel blocker RS100642 (1.0-250 micro M) had no significant effects against ST-induced neurotoxicity. Conversely, NR2B-selective NMDA receptor antagonists CGX-1007 (0.01-50 micro M) and ifenprodil (0.01-50 micro M) provided dose-dependent neuroprotection against ST-induced neurotoxicity (as measured by neuronal viability and comet assay analysis). CGX-1007 had no significant effect on ST-induced caspase-3 activity; however, ifenprodil did block activation of caspase-3. These studies demonstrate that NR2B NMDA receptor antagonists are anti-apoptotic and may mediate their action via mechanism(s) that are dependent or independent of caspase-3 activation.

AN - 73421210; 12835118 AB - One consequence of trauma to the CNS is the production and liberation, from damaged tissue, of large amounts of oxygen-centered free radicals or reactive oxygen species (ROS). An excessive production of ROS can overwhelm the endogenous antioxidant defense system resulting in lipid peroxidation, DNA strand breaks, protein denaturation and cross-linking. The brain is particularly vulnerable to oxidative injury, because it contains high concentrations of readily oxidizable poly-unsaturated fatty acids, has a high rate of oxygen consumption per unit mass, and has only a relatively modest antioxidant defense system. We have conducted studies in vitro to determine the feasibility of reducing ROS-mediated damage in neurons by bolstering endogenous neuronal antioxidant defenses. Primary cultures of neurons derived from embryonic rat forebrain were pre-treated with the free radical scavenger dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA), the reduced form of Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA), and then subjected to H(2)O(2)-mediated oxidative stress. Neuroprotection was determined using the colorimetric MTT reduction assay. As has been reported by others, pre-treatment of neurons with DHLA (4 h) provided dose-dependent neuroprotection against a subsequent exposure to H(2)O(2). The addition of spin trapping nitrones N-tert-butyl-Alpha-phenyl-nitrone (PBN) or its sulfonated analog N-tert-butyl-Alpha(2-sulfophenyl)-nitrone (SPBN) to the pre-treatment cocktail enhanced neuroprotection at every dihydrolipoate concentration. Greater therapeutic efficacy in antioxidant treatment might be realized by employing combinations of complementary antioxidants.

AN - 73284838; 12746155 AB - It is generally accepted that the method detection limit or MDL (defined in 40 CFR 136, Appendix B) provides protection against false positives 99% of the time. This is correct, but only for the next single measurement performed after the MDL is determined. Subsequent measurements are not protected against false positives with the same degree of confidence, and there is no protection for false negatives. This paper provides a simple cost-effective approach for estimating the "reliable detection limit." Unlike the MDL, the statistic may be used for an indefinite number of future measurements and minimizes false negatives. JF - Quality assurance (San Diego, Calif.)

AN - 73211702; 12691508 AB - To evaluate the stability of the antimicrobial chemical and bioactivity of gentamicin, vancomycin, and gentamicin and vancomycin in combination, and the stability of the bioactivity of ceftazidime, admixed in standard peritoneal dialysis solutions and then maintained over a 14-day period at room temperature or under refrigeration. Peritoneal dialysis center and microbiology laboratory at a military, teaching medical center. Standard peritoneal dialysate bags admixed with gentamicin, vancomycin, gentamicin and vancomycin in combination, or ceftazidime were stored at either 4 degrees C or 20 degrees C for 14 days. Sequential aliquots were withdrawn and assayed for antibiotic activity by bioassay and, except for ceftazidime, immunoassay for chemical activity. The bioassay was performed using a standardized Kirby-Bauer disc method. Significance was determined by ANOVA and, where the effect size was significant at the p < 0.05 level, the application of the paired t-test or the Wilcoxon signed rank test to the difference in activity between the first and last samples. Antibiotic concentration by immunoassay did not significantly deteriorate over 14 days for vancomycin or gentamicin when either room temperature or refrigerated samples were studied. By bioassay, gentamicin and ceftazidime, but not vancomycin, lost moderate but significant activity over 14 days when refrigerated bags were assayed (except for an insignificant decrement in gentamicin in the combined vancomycin and gentamicin bags). Bags stored at room temperature, in general, lost significant bioactivity over 14 days, but to levels where clinical efficacy would still be expected. The vancomycin bioassay performed on the combination bags demonstrated a remarkably enhanced bioactivity, presumably reflecting synergy with gentamicin. These data indicate that the study antibiotics admixed with peritoneal dialysis fluids retain stable chemical activity, whether refrigerated or kept at room temperature, for at least 14 days. A moderate decrement in bioactivity occurred for study antibiotics when stored either refrigerated or at room temperature over 14 days, although clinically significant levels were maintained. The clinical significance of a possible synergy between vancomycin and gentamicin is yet to be determined.

AN - 73176516; 12674496 AB - The DNA alkylating agent N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) upregulates the level of the base excision DNA repair enzyme DNA polymerase beta (beta-pol) in several mammalian cell types. Previous studies suggested that beta-pol expression is upregulated via a transcriptional mechanism that requires: the specific cAMP response element (CRE) in the beta-pol core promoter; a phosphorylated form of CRE-binding protein-1 (CREB-1); and cellular protein kinase A activity. A large family of CRE-binding proteins, ie., the ATF/CREB factors, has been identified in various cell types. This study further examines the role of CRE-binding proteins in regulating beta-pol expression through study of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. In CHO cell nuclear extract, CREB-1 and ATF-1 are the predominant CRE-binding protein family members recognizing the CRE in the beta-pol core promoter. The concentration of CREB-1 increases strongly in CHO cells after exposure to MNNG. In contrast, the level of ATF-1 does not change after MNNG treatment. Recombinant expression of CREB-1 in CHO cells is sufficient to increase expression of the endogenous beta-pol gene, even in the absence of MNNG exposure. These results indicate that beta-pol gene expression in CHO cells can be upregulated by CREB-1 and that the activation of beta-pol gene expression in response to DNA alkylating agent exposure involves a strong increase in the level of CREB-1.

AN - 72995257; 12556154 AB - Possible coinfections with Orientia tsutsugamushi the causative agent of scrub typhus, were prospectively evaluated in rice farmers hospitalized with leptospirosis in Northeast Thailand. Of 22 adults with leptospirosis diagnosed by the microscopic agglutination test, 9 also had serologic evidence of scrub typhus. Of 9 individuals with possible coinfections, 5 had signs or symptoms typical of scrub typhus and atypical of leptospirosis. Patients who appeared to have mixed infections had significantly higher median platelet counts and significantly lower median serum bilirubin and creatinine concentrations (P < 0.05, Mann-Whitney U test) than did individuals with leptospirosis alone. One patient with serologic evidence of scrub typhus and leptospirosis was treated only with penicillin, to which scrub typhus is not sensitive. Respiratory distress worsened during therapy, and the patient died of respiratory failure. Physicians should consider the possibility of scrub typhus infection in leptospirosis patients who respond poorly to treatment or who have atypical disease manifestations.

AN - 72986499; 12556674 AB - Congestive heart failure is a disorder that includes a multitude of neurohormonal responses that become maladaptive over time. Chronic sympathetic stimulation adversely affects the well-being and survival of heart failure patients and contributes to the exercise intolerance frequently seen in these patients. Norepinephrine levels have been correlated with poorer survival in heart failure patients. Administration of norepinephrine has been shown to impair exercise responses in those with congestive heart failure, and the recent effort to incorporate beta blocker therapy into the standard management of heart failure patients addresses this abnormal neurohormonal process. Studies with central-acting sympatholytics have shown mixed results. The use of drugs such as clonidine has been suggested as potentially useful therapy in the long-term management of patients with heart failure, but definitive conclusions await further study. Regular exercise has been shown to reduce resting norepinephrine levels in heart failure subjects. This may serve as an additional rationale to recommend chronic exercise for these patients.

AN - 72971107; 12546343 AB - Methotrexate (MTX) is a folic acid antagonist used in high doses as adjuvant chemotherapy for osteosarcoma. It has many known toxicities and has been reported to cause anaphylaxis. We report the first successful desensitization protocol to high-dose MTX. The patient is a 22-year-old male with the evaluation of osteosarcoma, T1Gr2NxM0. He received neoadjuvant chemotherapy and later underwent a right above the knee amputation without complication. He was then scheduled to receive adjuvant chemotherapy with high-dose MTX, 12 g/m2 body surface area, followed by leucovorin rescue and ifosfamide. He had an immediate hypersensitivity reaction during the initiation of the MTX infusion with diffuse urticaria, facial swelling, cough, and chest tightness. The infusion was terminated and his symptoms abated. He was later skin tested to confirm allergy to MTX. In order for him to receive the needed chemotherapy, we developed a desensitization protocol that was administered in the intensive care unit. Before the infusion he was pretreated with ranitidine, cetirizine, hydroxyzine, montelukast, and prednisone. He underwent the desensitization without incident on repeated infusions. Serum tryptase levels drawn during the infusions were low, signifying controlled mast cell degranulation. This case describes the original development of a desensitization protocol to high-dose MTX. The successful development and implementation of this protocol will have impact on patients who have anaphylactic reactions to MTX but require this medication for specific diseases. For patients who suffer from osteogenic sarcoma and have anaphylactic reactions to MTX, this desensitization protocol will allow these patients to continue with needed therapeutic or palliative chemotherapy.

AN - 72959961; 12524477 AB - Methemoglobin (MHb) formation is effective in treating cyanide (CN) poisoning. Endogenous activity of the enzyme MHb reductase (MR) reflects the capacity to reduce MHb and thus represents a key factor for evaluating anti-CN efficacy of MHb formers. MR activity was measured in whole blood of nine animal species and was compared with human MR activity. The animals in this comparative study included seven nonhuman primate (NHP) species, the beagle dog, and the ferret. Although exhibiting higher MR activity than in humans, the rhesus and aotus NHPs' average MR activity was the closest to humans', with raw data from each NHP showing overlap with human raw data. The beagle dog, used extensively to study anti-CN characteristics of MHb formers, was the sole species that displayed MR activity lower than in humans, with no data overlap. Based on MR activity, the rhesus and aotus NHPs may each represent a more accurate model for predicting human responses to MHb formers.

AN - 72946370; 12514101 AB - DNA polymerase zeta (Polzeta) promotes the mutagenic bypass of DNA lesions in eukaryotes. Genetic studies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae have indicated that relative to the contribution of other pathways, Polzeta makes only a modest contribution to lesion bypass. Intriguingly, however, disruption of the REV3 gene, which encodes the catalytic subunit of Polzeta, causes early embryonic lethality in mice. Here, we present genetic and biochemical evidence for the requirement of yeast Polzeta for predominantly error-free replication past thymine glycol (Tg), a DNA lesion formed frequently by free radical attack. These results raise the possibility that, as in yeast, in higher eukaryotes also, Polzeta makes a major contribution to the replicative bypass of Tgs as well as other lesions that block synthesis by replicative DNA polymerases. Such a preeminent role of Polzeta in lesion bypass would ensure that rapid cell divisions continue unabated during early embryonic development, thereby minimizing the generation of DNA strand breaks, chromosome aberrations, and the ensuing apoptotic response.

AN - 72883998; 12482989 AB - Abasic (AP) sites represent one of the most frequently formed lesions in DNA. Here, we examine the consequences of the stalling of RNA polymerase II at AP sites in DNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A severe inhibition of transcription occurs in strains that are defective in the removal of AP sites and that also lack the RAD26 gene, a homolog of the human Cockayne syndrome group B (CSB) gene, and, importantly, a dramatic rise in mutagenesis is incurred in such strains. From the various observations presented here, we infer that the stalling of transcription at AP sites is highly mutagenic.

AN - 72874410; 12473433 AB - In the United States, the leading cause of death for young men is unintentional injury. The experience of the U.S. Army, because it comprises mostly young men, provides insights into factors associated with risk of accidental death. Between 1990 and 1998, accidents accounted for more than half of all deaths of men on active duty in the U.S. Army. All men on active duty in the U.S. Army who died in an accident between 1990 and 1998 were included in the study. For each accidental death case, four randomly selected controls were also included, matched on gender and contemporaneous military service. In multivariate analyses, accidental death victims were more likely to be unmarried, limited to a high school education, in combat-specific occupations, veterans of a recent deployment, and previously hospitalized for an "injury/poisoning," "mental disorder," or "sign/symptom/ill-defined condition." Of behaviors reported on routine health risk assessments, the strongest predictor of a subsequent fatal accident was motorcycle use while the most excess deaths were attributable to consuming more than five alcoholic drinks per week. There are characteristics, experiences, and behaviors that predict accidental death risk. The findings may inform safety and health promotion programs aimed at young adults.

The complex RMA is generating several sociological challenges. This paper identifies these challenges & their impact on military training. Broadly, the RMA presents the problem of social order. Cold War norms, social relationships, & institutionalized patterns of behavior will need to be substantially modified, with the changes trained & reinforced. Decentralized formations will place a premium on communications & mobility, resulting in a downward distribution of power & independence of action, while information richness & centralized command & control are waning. Individual service members will need greater situational awareness of ongoing activity, ie, deal with the definition of the situation & the social construction of reality. The RMA will transform training -- its range, timing, delivery, & duration. Greater emphasis will need to be placed on internalized controls, generalization over specialization, meta-training (learning how to learn versus what to learn), & service members' taking more responsibility for their training (individually & collectively). However, caution is needed about an over-socialized & over-trainable conceptualization of the service member.

However, an examination of China's Central Asian policies reveals that they are essentially external projections of Beijing's vital interest of internal security in neighboring Xinjiang. Accordingly, this paper examines Xinjiang's importance for China's overall security policies. Through this examination, it becomes clear that the Xinjiang problem very much resembles that of other discontented provinces within a multinational state with a continuing imperial vocation. China's problems in Xinjiang will continue, & have important repercussions for its domestic & foreign policies & for other key issues like Taiwan. 71 References. Adapted from the source document.

It describes the training of a typical infantry regiment in the Eighth US Army from April 1949, until the outbreak of the Korean War on 25 June 1950. The evolution of readiness from individual training to regimental combat team maneuvers in the 27th Infantry Regiment proves that occupation duties interfered very little with the conduct of training after June 1949; the nature of the training cycle afforded maximum time for the creation of cohesive & proficient squads, platoons, & companies; soldiers recognized the importance of the training program & strove to execute it well; physical fitness was an integral part of the training program; & technical training occupied a significant part of nonmaneuver training time. Acknowledgement of the Eighth Army's accomplishments in 1949 & early 1950 should facilitate a shift in the debate away from the lack of preparedness of "occupation troops" & onto a discussion of the strategic assumptions & operational decisions that placed single battalions into tactically & logistically unsupportable positions. Only by doing that can we begin to bury what Douglas MacArthur called the "pernicious myth" of professional, physical, & moral ineffectiveness that obscures the actual readiness of the Eighth Army.

A multidisciplinary study has been carried out on the STR and adjacent lithostratigraphic units to constrain absolute age, geochemical characteristics, and Quaternary depositional history. A number of rock units were identified inside the crater of the STR, including Scoria deposit I, trachybasalt lava, Scoria deposit II, and a late-stage basaltic tuff, indicative of a rather complex sequence of magmatic and phreatomagmatic eruptions after the construction of the tuff ring. Petrochemical analysis shows that the STR was generated from different magma batches that fractionated from a homogeneous magma chamber, and the early erupted magma was more evolved and volatile-rich. Reworking of the STR commenced shortly after the hydromagmatic eruption in a high-energy nearshore environment, resulting in deposition of the Hamori Formation. The formation is composed of planar-stratified and low- to high-angle cross-stratified tuffaceous (pebbly) sandstones and occurs up to an altitude of about 4 m above present sea level. (super 14) C dating of molluscan shells beneath the formation indicates that it began to be deposited after about 4000 yr BP. Detailed sedimentary logging reveals that the formation consists of several stratal packages bounded by laterally persistent and distinct lithologic boundaries, probably formed by millennial-scale sea-level fluctuations. Occurrence of another hydrovolcanic sequence (the Sinyangri Formation) on the opposite side of Jeju Island, having similar sedimentary characteristics and ages, suggests that the sea-level fluctuations as seen in the Hamori Formation have affected a wide area of Jeju Island, probably related to the high-frequency sea-level oscillations during the post-6 ka BP regression period in the East Asian region. It can be concluded that the formation of the STR was possible because of the Holocene transgression, which made the present coastal areas water-saturated and adequate for hydrovolcanic eruptions. The STR in turn contributed to record high-frequency sea-level fluctuations during the Holocene via acting as a local and short-lived but affluent source of loose sediment.

This geosynthetic-based reactive material will provide the same isolation as that of traditional soil caps, but will have the added advantages of: providing a remediation layer to adsorb and neutralize target contaminants; block resuspension of fine sediment particles; and serve as a foundation material during remediation. In addition, the geocomposite could be used in a tube configuration to simultaneously store and remediate dredged sediments. The paper describes the results of a two-phase, bench-top experimental program to assess the feasibility of this idea and to help model its scalability for sediment remediation in the field. This testing consisted of two parts: one-dimensional consolidation testing on layered systems of very soft soils and geotextiles, both woven and non-woven; and sorption isotherm testing of lead ions (Pb (super +2) ), in solutions of various pH and salt concentration, for both soil and zeolite. Results show the effects of the two geotextile types on the soil-geotextile system during consolidation, including changes in coefficients of consolidation and hydraulic conductivity. The adsorption tests show the effectiveness of the zeolite in binding the lead ions, and the soil's potential for lead adsorption under a variety of pH and salt concentrations.

The reservoir is located at the base of a approximately 4.8 km-long canyon along the flanks of the Chugach Mountains, where it is fed by a 234 km (super 2) unglaciated drainage basin. High sediment production within the watershed results in rapid infilling of the reservoir and a need for periodic dredging. During March 2001, we conducted a ground penetrating radar (GPR) survey of the reservoir to document the current state of sedimentation and to evaluate sediment trap designs. These data are presented here as a case study in which the utility of GPR for evaluating sediment infilling in a shallow reservoir is evaluated. The survey was conducted from a 45 cm-thick ice cover in the lower reservoir that thinned to about 6 cm at a distance of 220 m above the dam. A total of 49 radar profiles were collected from the ice cover and an additional 10 profiles were collected on a gravel bar in the upper parts of the reservoir. Water depth near the dam was about 6 m and sediment in that reach forms a blanket deposit. More hummocky and asymmetric bed topography was found away from the dam, apparently controlled by palaeochannel geometry and bedrock sills. GPR profiles collected on the gravel bar document a sedimentary wedge that thickens downvalley and toward the southern edge of the reservoir, apparently the palaeothalweg of Ship Creek. Transverse profiles across the bar indicate that an average of about 2 m of sediment can be removed across this reach, with 3 m or more being available adjacent to the active channel. This survey indicates that infilling of the entire reservoir had reached a level approaching that of the pre-1995 dredging. Analysis of sediment-yield data and basin geometry showed that a weir built across the reservoir approximately 215 m from the dam would produce a trap capable of storing 60% to 70% of that currently held in the reservoir. Sediment trapped within this portion can be excavated using standard machinery, providing a more cost-effective alternative to periodic dredging.

The data collected in eight years of SHOALS survey operations have improved understanding of the coastal processes that drive shoreline change at USACE navigation and shore protection projects. The knowledge and experience gained from eight years of SHOALS operations have paved the way for a generational advancement in airborne coastal mapping by identifying complementary data sets to SHOALS bathymetry and by pinpointing aspects of survey planning, data collection, and data processing that could be automated for a more easily operated system. The result is the Compact Hydrographic Airborne Rapid Total Survey (CHARTS) system. CHARTS is an integrated bathymetric/topographic/digital imagery system currently under development for the US Naval Oceanographic Office. A bathymetric lidar component operates at a rate of 1,000 Hz, while a topographic lidar component operates at 10,000 Hz. Digital imagery will be collected using a georeferenced camera that can provide a visual backdrop for the soundings and elevations collected by the other components. CHARTS will easily deploy from most photogrammetric aircraft of opportunity and will incorporate highly automated algorithms based on current SHOALS processing methodology. CHARTS will be commercially available as SHOALS-1000 following field-testing in August 2003. System flight parameters and sensor suite are ideal for further integration with additional sensors such as a hyperspectral imager. SHOALS-1000 will initiate a new era of complete coastal mapping from an airborne platform. JF - Journal of Coastal Research AU - Wozencraft, Jennifer M AU - Lillycrop, W Jeff A2 - Byrnes, Mark E.

Army Corps of Engineers ER - TY - JOUR T1 - The use of shoreline change mapping in coastal engineering project assessment AN - 51765998; 2005-005076 AB - An important tool in assessment of coastal engineering problems is the understanding of shoreline evolution. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is responsible for the safe navigation at inlets and coastal harbor entrances and providing shore protection projects to protect the coastal infrastructure from damage due to coastal storms. Shoreline change studies have been a useful tool in evaluating the success of these projects. On a national scale, several shoreline change studies have been done by the Corps to evaluate the erosion potential and identify areas of "critical erosion" on a national or regional scale. In 1971, the Corps published the National Shoreline Study to compile an analysis of the Nations shorelines and develop shore protection management guidelines. Areas of critical erosion were identified for future shore protection needs. In the 1980's a joint NOAA-CERC cooperative shoreline movement study provided a series of long-term shoreline change maps of four coastal regions and analysis of selected shoreline change rates and patterns. A new National Shoreline Management Study is being initiated to pursue an interagency effort to update the study of coastal erosion and to improve future coastal sediment management issues. Information from the study will be used to develop recommendations regarding Federal and non-Federal participation in shore protection and use of a systems approach to sand management on a national scale. On a more local scale, shoreline change mapping has been applied to many coastal engineering projects to improve design and management of resources. Three selected projects are used to show tools and techniques from recent studies to evaluate shoreline trends on the project scale in both navigation and shore protection applications. The use of a Geographic Information System (GIS) has facilitated integration of various shoreline formats into a usable product. A complex evolution of a new inlet formation was evaluated using aerial photography derived shorelines to assess adjacent barrier island movements and resulting impacts to navigation channel management. Hot and Cold spots of erosion and accretion were identified and measured by shoreline change analysis along a beach nourishment project to improve renourishment design. A shoreline change analysis of an experimental nearshore prefabricated breakwater indicated a complex interaction of natural nearshore hardbottom and sand wave movement controlled shoreline change more than the breakwater. Shoreline change analysis has been carried out on the national and project specific scale. Each study has improved understanding of how shoreline evolution has changed with both natural and engineering practices and its relationship to coastal engineering problems.

However, the literature on methods, techniques for quantifying source errors, guidelines for data acquisition, and new approaches is focused primarily on the sandy coastlines of the eastern and gulf coasts of the United States. Therefore, a comprehensive shoreline change investigation was completed for Ottawa and Allegan Counties, Michigan to investigate issues specific to the fresh water shorelines of the Great Lakes. A detailed spatial database was developed that included 79 km of continuous top of bank and dune crest lines for five temporal periods. Over 70,000 erosion transects were generated and analyzed with customized ArcGIS tools for the sandy and cohesive shore types found in the two counties. Significant spatial and temporal variability in the transect measurements were observed for both shore types. Based on the results, a series of detailed recommendations are provided for selecting historical sources of positional data, minimizing sampling errors by selecting an appropriate transect spacing, considering lake level impacts, and the influence of the bluff failure cycle on recession rates.

The distribution, intensity, and frequency of occurrence of surface fault movement driven by subsurface tectonic processes, gravity slumping and other causes were considered. A framework of faulting was established to which changes in the deltaic plain can be linked. These changes are related to differential vertical movements, which alter elevation and slope of the modern surface within fault-bound blocks. Locations of major faults that comprise this framework were established through literature review and data derived from research conducted primarily by petroleum geologists. These data also show that the faults extend into the deep subsurface and are characterized by offsets in subsurface stratigraphy. Episodic fault movement has occurred throughout the Quaternary. More than 100 surface fault traces and/or scarps have been identified and evaluated. Typically the traces are linear segments from 1 to 5 miles in length and have associated areas of rapid land loss or wetland deterioration on the down-dropped block. Down-dropped blocks are usually tilted and exhibit vertical displacement of 1 to 4 feet. Many coastal lakes and bays were formed by historic and pre-historic fault events. Increased fault activity began in the 1960s and continues to present.

Beginning about 12,500 (super 14) C yr BP, the river in the Old River Bed (ORB) was a relatively large, high-energy river composed essentially of enlarged versions of all the rivers and streams that now flow into the Sevier Basin. Until about 11,000 (super 14) C yr BP, this river formed "gravel channels" that are straight to curved, digitate features with abrupt bulbous ends, composed of fine gravel and coarse sand. In the area of the ORB delta these channels are topographically inverted (i.e., stand higher than the surrounding mudflats). From about 11,000-8800 (super 14) C yr BP flow in the ORB was reduced, forming "sand channels" with well-developed meander-scroll morphology that is truncated by deflation of the mudflat surfaces. These meandering channels flowed through an extensive marsh/wetland ecosystem, up to 600 km (super 2) in size. During the "sand channel" period, the ORB delta was occupied by Paleoarchaic foragers who used the topographically inverted "gravel channels" to reach and utilize the marsh resources in the delta wetlands. Surveys of 52 km of more than 200 linear km of gravel and sand channels on Dugway Proving Ground (DPG) have identified 51 Paleoarchaic sites. Together with work north of DPG, these surveys suggest the ORB delta may contain as many as 500 or more Paleoarch Late Paleoarchaic Occupation of the Old River Bed Delta, Bonneville Basin, Western North America aic sites. The sites are characterized by Great Basin Stemmed points and crescents, many of which are extensively reworked. Basalt tools are also common. These are composed primarily of large cores and bifaces from which flakes were struck, apparently for use in processing marsh resources. Toolstone sources are limited in comparison to other Great Basin Paleoarchaic sites and mobility patterns also appear to have been much different. Whereas movement within the ORB wetlands may have been frequent, movement away from the delta was probably infrequent relative to the mobility characteristic of Paleoarchaic foragers elsewhere.

For glaciers with abundant meltwater, thermodynamic considerations indicate that the sediment-ice contact in the direction of ice flow tends toward an angle opposed to and somewhat steeper than the surface slope (by slightly more than 50%). A simple model based on this hypothesis yields the extent of over-ridden sediments as a function of sediment thickness and strength, a result that may be useful in guiding additional fieldwork for hypothesis testing. Sediment-floored as well as rock-floored over-deepenings are common features along glacier flow paths and are expected based on theories of glacier erosion, entrainment, transport and deposition.

After proposing revisions in 1991, 1993, and 1997, the EPA finally promulgated, on July 17, 2002, new regulations for the SPCC program. As written, the new regulations may impose substantial new expense and implementation requirements upon installations. This article provides a detailed review of the primary requirements of the SPCC program and identifies which issues federal installations may need to address as they work to meet the August 17, 2004, deadline to review their plan and complete necessary amendments, and the February 18, 2005, deadline to implement those amendments.

Acetate was used as a source of readily biodegradable carbon in all of the treatment-column systems. Influent hexahydro- 1, 3, 5-trinitro-1, 3, 5-triazine (RDX) concentrations (1-1.8 mg dm super(-3)) were completely removed to below detection levels of 20 µg dm super(-3) in all treatment- column systems without any nitroso-metabolites. In the control-column system (with no carbon amendment) significant levels ( similar to 30% of the inlet molar RDX) of nitroso-substituted RDX derivates were observed in the effluent stream. The estimated first-order biodegradation rate coefficient for RDX was highest (0.79 h super(-1)) in the treatment-column system where acetate was the only amendment, about 52 times higher than the rate coefficient (0.015 h super(-1)) obtained in the control-column system. The presence of sulfate (100 mg dm super(-3)) in influent groundwater temporarily delayed the onset of RDX biotransformation without any adverse effects on overall RDX biotransformation. Coexistence of low (100 mg dm super(-3)) nitrate levels in the influent feed water reduced the first-order biodegradation rate coefficient obtained in the absence of nitrate by about 80% to 0.16 h super(-1). These nitrate levels, however, were low to halt the RDX biodegradation probably because the available carbon levels were high enough to exceed the demands for nitrate reduction. High levels of nitrate (500 mg dm super(- 3)) initially halted RDX removal, and significantly reduced the rate of RDX biotransformation by about 98% to 0.02 h super(-1), thereby increasing the half-life from 0.9 h in the absence of nitrate to about 32 h, with noticeable levels of untreated RDX in the effluent stream. Contrary to the expectations, the presence of ammonium in conjunction with acetate resulted in a lower (0.09 h super(-1)) biodegradation rate coefficient as compared with the one obtained in the absence of ammonium.

The expression of Nav 1.1, Nav 1.2, Nav 1.3, Nav 1.7, Nav 1.8 and the housekeeping gene beta -actin were studied in vehicle or drug-treated rats at 6, 24 and 48 h post-MCAo using real-time quantitative RT-PCR. RS100642 (1 mg/kg), mexiletine (10 mg/kg), or vehicle (1 ml/kg) was injected (i.v.) at 30 min, 2, 4, and 6 h post-injury. Following MCAo only the Nav 1.1. and Nav 1.2 genes were significantly down-regulated in the ipsilateral hemisphere of the injured brains. RS100642 treatment significantly reversed the down-regulation of Nav 1.1 (but not Nav 1.2) at 24--48 h post-injury. Mexiletine treatment, on the other hand, had no significant effect on the down-regulation of either gene. These findings demonstrate that treatment with a neuroprotective dose of RS100642 significantly reverses the down-regulation of Nav 1.1 caused by ischemic brain injury and suggests that RS100642 selectively targets the Nav 1.1 alpha -subunit of the NaCh. Furthermore, our findings strengthen the hypothesis that ischemic injury may produce selective depletion of voltage-gated NaChs, and suggest that the Nav 1.1 NaCh alpha -subunit may play a key role in the neuronal injury/recovery process.

These effects have been related to inhibition of the transcription factor NF- mu B, which is activated through ubiquitin-proteasomal degradation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of MLN519 to alter the expression of several inflammatory genes under the control of NF- mu B. Male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo) followed by vehicle or MLN519 (1.0 mg/kg, i.v.) treatment immediately after reperfusion of blood to the brain at 2h. Gene expression was evaluated 3--72 h post-MCAo. The most striking effects of intravenous treatment with MLN519 were associated with reductions in ICAM-1 expression at 3 h followed by reductions in E-selectin (12--72 h). Less dramatic reductions were observed in IL-1 beta (3--24h) and TNF- alpha (24 h) with no apparent effects on IL-6 and VCAM-1 mRNA levels. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that the genes most dramatically affected by MLN519 had highest expression in endothelial cells and leukocytes (E-selectin, ICAM-1), indicating that these cell types may be the primary targets of intravenously delivered MLN519 treatment.

To date, no field methods have been proposed by the regulatory community that can lead to definitive determinations of acceptable or unacceptable risk for birds and mammals, the two terrestrial classes of receptors that are commonly assessed using the HQ method. This paper describes rodent sperm analysis (RSA) as a viable method to be applied in the field at sites with historical contamination. RSA is capable of detecting biological differences that bear on reproduction, a highly regarded toxicological endpoint of concern in USEPA Superfund-type ERAs. The results of RSA's first application at a study site are reported and discussed. The paper also provides the rationale for RSA's efficacy in the context of Superfund and other environmental cleanup programs, where limited time and money are available to determine and evaluate the field condition. Rodent sperm analysis is a visable method for use in field studies of risk at contaminated sites.

AN - 19609724; 7322536 AB - Birds and mammals at hazardous waste sites are routinely modeled for their potential to display harmful toxicological effects as a result of their exposures to contaminants. Although standard desktop measures of the potential for toxicological endpoints to be reached commonly suggest that these receptors should be at ill health (e.g., experiencing reproductive impairment), evidence is lacking from the field that such effects are occurring. Plausibly, the excessive time lapse (frequently several decades) from contaminant release event to site ecological risk assessment, can explain the disconnect. Aided by their relatively brief life spans, these modeled ecological receptors have produced multiple generations to date and may have outbred the chemical stress. In light of the absence of observed health impacts in birds and mammals since the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys Superfund program, there may be no need to continue assessing the health of these species. Additionally, given the very few reported instances of observed health effects at terrestrial sites, it may be prudent to replace risk assessment with impact assessment as the essence of a revamped ecological assessment process.

Through an analysis of HI outcomes drawn from Superfund Records of Decision, the reduced importance of the HI statistic in human health risk assessments is demonstrated, and the high visibility of the ecological risk assessment (ERA) HQ for terrestrial receptors (birds and mammals) is underscored. Three HQ method limitations common to both HHRA and ERA, deriving either from the mathematical construct of the HQ (a simple binary measure, indicating that an animals exposure either exceeds its toxicity value or does not) or from dose-response outcomes in animal trials, are reviewed. Two additional HQ limitations unique to ERA (i.e., a propensity for the HQ to easily exceed its threshold value, and a propensity for it to assume values that are unreasonably high), and deriving from the complexities of estimating bird and mammal dietary intakes of contaminants and the availability of toxicological effects information, are also identified. The paper cautions of the potential to err in concluding that terrestrial site receptors are at risk when the HQ threshold is exceeded, and regardless of the toxicological information (NOAELs, LOAELs, etc.) used. It recognizes that because other methods of terrestrial assessment are presently unavailable, HQs are sometimes, out of necessity, used to justify a remedial action. The analysis and discussion are intended to remind ecological risk assessors that the HQ is a measure of a level of concern only and not a measure of risk JF - Human and Ecological Risk Assessment AU - Tannenbaum, LV AU - Johnson AU - Bazar, M AD - Environmental Health Risk Assessment Program, Health Effects Research Program, U.S. Army Center for Health Promotion and Preventive Medicine, 5158 Blackhawk Road, Aberdeen Proving Ground, Aberdeen, Maryland 21010-5403 Y1 - 2003/01// PY - 2003 DA - Jan 2003 SP - 387 EP - 401 PB - CRC Press LLC, 2000 Corporate Blvd., NW Boca Raton FL 33431 USA, [mailto:journals@crcpress.com], [URL:http://www.crcpress.com] VL - 9 IS - 1 SN - 1080-7039, 1080-7039 KW - Pollution Abstracts; Toxicology Abstracts; Sustainability Science Abstracts; Risk Abstracts KW - hazard quotient KW - hazard index KW - ecological risk assessment KW - screening KW - Diets KW - Risk assessment KW - Superfund KW - Toxicity KW - Ingestion KW - Dietary intake KW - Hazards KW - Decision making KW - Dose-response effects KW - Reviews KW - Contaminants KW - M3 1010:Issues in Sustainable Development KW - R2 23050:Environment KW - P 6000:TOXICOLOGY AND HEALTH KW - X 24300:Methods UR - http://libproxy.lib.unc.edu/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/19601353?accountid=14244 L2 - http://vb3lk7eb4t.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQ%3Ariskabstracts&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:journal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=Human+and+Ecological+Risk+Assessment&rft.atitle=Application+of+the+Hazard+Quotient+Method+in+Remedial+Decisions%3A+A+Comparison+of+Human+and+Ecological+Risk+Assessments&rft.au=Tannenbaum%2C+LV%3BJohnson%3BBazar%2C+M&rft.aulast=Tannenbaum&rft.aufirst=LV&rft.date=2003-01-01&rft.volume=9&rft.issue=1&rft.spage=387&rft.isbn=&rft.btitle=&rft.title=Human+and+Ecological+Risk+Assessment&rft.issn=10807039&rft_id=info:doi/10.1080%2F1080703031877320 LA - English DB - ProQuest Environmental Science Collection N1 - Date revised - 2007-04-01 N1 - Last updated - 2015-04-01 N1 - SubjectsTermNotLitGenreText - Risk assessment; Decision making; Reviews; Toxicity; Contaminants; Dietary intake; Hazards; Diets; Superfund; Dose-response effects; Ingestion DO - http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/1080703031877320 ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Effects of a 3-Month Endurance Event on Physical Performance and Body Composition: The G2 Trans-Greenland Expedition AN - 19266193; 5843550 AB - Objective.--Prolonged physical exertion with inadequate time for recuperation may result in an overtraining phenomenon characterized by reduced physical strength and endurance capacity. We tested the hypothesis that highly motivated men pushed to the limits of their endurance capacity for 3 months would suffer physical breakdown characterized by loss of lean mass and reduced physical performance capacity. Methods.--Two well-trained men (VO sub(2)max > 60 mL/kg/min), aged 25 years, completed an unsupported, 2928-km, south-to-north ski trek across Greenland in 86 days. The trek involved ski marching, typically for 9 h/d, pulling sleds initially containing 150 kg and a high-fat (60%) energy-dense diet of 25.1 MJ/d. Body composition and physical performance data were collected 14 days before and 4 days after the trek. Results.--Energy expenditure based on doubly labeled water during three 2-week periods ranged from 28.3 and 34.6 MJ/d in rugged terrain to 14.6 and 16.1 MJ/d during travel on flat terrain for subjects 1 and 2, respectively. Both men lost weight, completing the trek with low-normal fat stores ( similar to 13% body fat). The lighter man gained 0.6 kg lean mass, while the heavier man lost 1.4 kg lean mass and a larger amount of fat weight (7.0 kg). Most performance measures showed trivial changes within the errors of measurement and test reproducibility, indicating no loss of endurance capacity, but anaerobic tests (Wingate and vertical jump) were markedly reduced. Markers of metabolic status, including oral glucose tolerance tests, indicated no functional impairments. Conclusions.--Although the number of subjects was limited, this observational study demonstrated that well-trained and experienced long-distance ski trekkers who eat an adequate high-calorie diet can perform endurance treks in severe cold, with little or no loss of lean mass and physical capability.

Most systems studied could be described well by truncations of the series expression that retained one or two parameters. The one-parameter expression was appropriate for describing capillary pressures of soils experiencing modest changes in temperature. The van Genuchten [1980] equation modified with the one-parameter expression could be fitted precisely to 36 of 41 water-air capillary pressure saturation relations determined at more than one temperature. The residuals of the fitted equation were unaffected by degree of saturation. The one-parameter expression could describe equally well the effect of temperature on capillary pressures of homogeneous synthetic and natural heterogeneous porous media, for which a theoretical explanation was proposed. Asymptotic standard errors of the estimates for nonlinear regression analysis for the one-parameter expression fitted to water-oil and water-NAPL systems were of the order of the parameters themselves. This lack of fit may be more due to the wide temperature ranges studied for many of the water-oil and water-NAPL systems than the nature of the nonwetting phase. The two-parameter expression was appropriate for systems, such as petroleum reservoirs, subjected to pronounced changes in temperature. When compared to nonlinear regression fits to the one-parameter model, fits of van Genuchten's equation modified with the two-parameter expression generally reduced the errors of the parameter estimates but yielded only slight improvement in the mean square errors of the predicted values. A theoretical derivation indicates that the one-parameter expression should be appropriate also to describe the effect of temperature on the capillary pressures in very dry soils.

During this study, average trip expenditures ranged from $14.60 to $247.57 depending upon angler category, angling location, and duration of the trip. Boat anglers remaining overnight had the highest trip expenditures. Anglers were asked their angling efforts at current level of aquatic plant coverage, at an intermediate level of coverage, and at former peak levels of coverage. Current coverage at Lake Moultrie is 20 ha and peak levels were 9,090 ha; current coverage at Lake Murray is 790 ha and peak levels were 1,336 ha. Based upon their experiences with aquatic vegetation, all categories of anglers preferred increased aquatic vegetation. Increasing plant coverage from current levels would increase angling effort by 11% to 14% and increase economic activity in selected economic sectors, such as lodging, by 18% to 63%. Expenditure data and economic impact models are an improved way, compared to summarized trip expenditures, to measure economic contributions of angling. Other groups such as pleasure boaters, water skiers, hunters, and homeowners along the lakes should be studied using similar methods. Taken together, such studies incorporate public preferences, perceptions, as well as economic benefits in the local economy and provide justification for aquatic plant management.

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Site-specific mutagenicity of stereochemically defined 1,N super(2)- deoxyguanosine adducts of trans-4-hydroxynonenal in mammalian cells AN - 18823320; 5713506 AB - Trans-4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) is a toxic compound produced endogenously during lipid peroxidation. HNE is a potent electrophile that is reactive with both proteins and nucleic acids. HNE preferentially reacts with deoxyguanosine to form four stereoisomeric HNE-deoxyguanosine (HNE-dG) adducts: (6R, 8S, 11R), (6S, 8R, 11S), (6R, 8S, 11S), and (6S, 8R, 11R). These adducts were synthesized into 12-mer oligodeoxynucleotides, inserted into a DNA shuttle vector and evaluated for the ability of each stereoisomer to induce mutagenesis when replicated through mammalian cells. The resultant mutagenicity of these adducts was related to their stereochemistry, in that two of the HNE-dG adducts, (6R, 8S, 11R) and (6S, 8R, 11S), were significantly more mutagenic than the (6R, 8S, 11S) and (6S, 8R, 11R) HNE-dG adducts. These data conclusively demonstrate that HNE-derived DNA adducts can be mutagenic in mammalian cells and their ability to cause mutations is dictated by their stereochemistry.

AN - 18684222; 5575345 AB - To determine the effects of load carriage and walking speed on stride parameters and the coordination of trunk movements, 12 subjects walked on a treadmill at a range of walking speeds (0.6-1.6 m s super(-1)) with and without a backpack containing 40% of their body mass. It was hypothesized that compared to unloaded walking, load carriage decreases transverse pelvic and thoracic rotation, the mean relative phase between pelvic and thoracic rotations, and increases hip excursion. In addition, it was hypothesized that these changes would coincide with a decreased stride length and increased stride frequency. The findings supported the hypotheses. Dimensionless analyses indicated that there was a significantly larger contribution of hip excursion and smaller contribution of transverse plane pelvic rotation to increases in stride length during load carriage. In addition, there was a significant effect of load carriage on the amplitudes of transverse pelvic and thoracic rotation and the relative phase of pelvic and thoracic rotation. It was concluded that the shorter stride length and higher stride frequency observed when carrying a backpack is the result of decreased pelvic rotation. During unloaded walking, increases in pelvic rotation contribute to increases in stride length with increasing walking speed. The decreased pelvic rotation during load carriage requires an increased hip excursion to compensate. However, the increase in hip excursion is insufficient to fully compensate for the observed decrease in pelvis rotation, requiring an increase in stride frequency during load carriage to maintain a constant walking speed.

Formulations included 1 and 5 mg doses of CS6, either encapsulated in biodegradable polymer poly([image], [image])-lactide-co- glycolide (PLG), or as free protein, administered orally in a solution of either normal saline or a rice-based buffer. Three doses of CS6 were given at 2-week intervals. Blood was collected immediately before and 7 days after each dose. All formulations were well tolerated. Four of five volunteers who received 1 mg CS6 in PLG microspheres with buffer had significant IgA ASC responses (median=30 ASC per 10 PBMC) and significant serum IgG responses (median=3.5-fold increase). Oral administration of these prototype ETEC vaccine formulations are safe and can elicit immune responses. The ASC, serum IgA, and serum IgG responses to CS6 are similar in magnitude to the responses after challenge with wild-type ETEC [Coster et al. unpublished data]. Further studies are underway to determine whether these immune responses are sufficient for protection.

Methods: Ten men (22.8 plus or minus 1.4 yr) were assessed during a cold-air test (CAT) after a control week (control) and again after an 84-h SUSOPS (sleep = 2 h times d super(-1), energy intake = similar to 1650 kcal times d super(-1), and energy expenditure = similar to 4500 kcal times d super(-1)). CAT consisted of a resting subject (seminude) being exposed to an ambient temperature ramp from 25 degree C to 10 degree C during the initial 30 min of CAT, with the ambient temperature then remaining at 10 degree C for an additional 150 min. Results: SUSOPS decreased (P < 0.05) body weight, % body fat, and fat-free mass by 3.9 kg, 1.6%, and 1.8 kg, respectively. During CAT, rectal temperature decreased to a greater extent (P < 0.05) after SUSOPS (0.52 plus or minus 0.09 degree C) versus control (0.45 plus or minus 0.12 degree C). Metabolic heat production was lower (P < 0.05) after SUSOPS at min 30 (55.4 plus or minus 3.3 W times m super(-2)) versus control (66.9 plus or minus 4.4 W times m super(-2)). Examination of the mean body temperature-metabolic heat production relationship indicated that the threshold for shivering was lower (P < 0.05) after SUSOPS (34.8 plus or minus 0.2 degree C) versus control (35.8 plus or minus 0.2 degree C). Mean weighted skin temperatures ( degree C) were lower during the initial 1.5 h of CAT in SUSOPS versus control. Heat debt was similar between trials. Conclusion: These results indicate that sustained (84-h) military operations leads to greater declines in core temperature, due to either a lag in the initial shivering response or heat redistribution secondary to an insulative acclimation.

High-throughput BoNT assays are needed for use in antibotulinum drug discovery and to characterize BoNT protease activities. Compared to other proteases, BoNTs exhibit unusually stringent substrate requirements with respect to amino acid sequences and polypeptide lengths. Nonetheless, we have devised a strategy for development of fluorigenic BoNT protease assays, based on earlier structure-function studies, that has proven successful for three of the seven serotypes: A, B, and F. In synthetic peptide substrates, the P sub(1) and P sub(3)' residues were substituted with 2,4- dinitrophenyl-lysine and S-(N-(4-methyl-7-dimethylamino-coumarin-3-yl)- carboxamidomethyl)-cysteine, respectively. By monitoring the BoNT-catalyzed increase in fluorescence over time, initial hydrolysis rates could be obtained in 1 to 2 min when BoNT concentrations were 60 ng/ml (about 1 nM) or higher. Each BoNT cleaved its fluorigenic substrate at the same location as in the neuronal target protein, and kinetic constants indicated that the substrates were selective and efficient. The fluorigenic assay for BoNT B was used to characterize a new competitive inhibitor of BoNT B protease activity with a K sub(i) value of 4 mu M. In addition to real-time activity measurements, toxin concentration determinations, and kinetic studies, the BoNT substrates described herein may be directly incorporated into automated high-throughput assay systems to screen large numbers of compounds for potential antibotulinum drugs.

The i.n. inoculation of BALB/c mice with large doses of ETEC strains H10407 and B7A caused illness and death. The H10407 strain was found to be consistently more virulent than the B7A strain. Following i.n. challenge with nonlethal doses of H10407 and B7A, the bacteria were cleared from the lungs of the mice at a steady rate over a 2-week period. Macrophages and neutrophils were observed in the alveoli and bronchioles, and lymphocytes were observed in the septa, around vessels, and in the pleura of the lungs in mice challenged with H10407 and B7A. In mice i.n. challenged with H10407, serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgM antibodies were measured at high titers to the CFA/I and O78 lipopolysaccharide (LPS) antigens. In mice i.n. challenged with B7A, low serum IgG antibody titers were detected against CS6, and low serum IgG and IgM antibody titers were detected against O148 LPS. The serum IgG and IgM antibody titers against the heat-labile enterotoxin were equivalent in the H10407- and B7A-challenged mice. The CFA/I and O78 LPS antigens gave mixed T-helper cell 1-T-helper cell 2 (Th1- Th2) responses in which the Th2 response was greater than the Th1 response (i.e., stimulated primarily an antibody response). These studies indicate that the i.n. challenge of BALB/c mice with ETEC strains may provide a useful animal model to better understand the immunogenicity and pathogenicity of ETEC and its virulence determinants. This model may also be useful in providing selection criteria for vaccine candidates for use in primate and human trials.

The conditions were similar to those during which acclimatization has been demonstrated, yet they were also conducive to development of peripheral cold injury. Extremity digit temperatures were measured during 30-minute peripheral cold-water (4 degree C) immersion (CWI) in 2 explorers (R.G. and T.L.) before and after a 109-day Arctic ski trek (average T sub(air) = -21 degree C). This self-supported trek involved carrying heavy backpacks (up to 45 kg) and hauling sleds ( similar to 100 kg). During the expedition, the explorers' hands did not sustain frostbite, but their feet developed moderate trench foot. Unexpectedly, both men exhibited lower mean finger temperatures during CWI after the expedition in right and left hands (R.G. by 0.9 degree C and 0.2 degree C; T.L. by 1.8 degree C and 1.1 degree C), suggesting peripheral acclimatization was impaired. In contrast, mean toe temperatures during CWI were warmer in both right and left feet for TL. (by 3.6 degree C and 2.3 degree C) and in the left foot for R.G. (by 1.3 degree C) postexpedition. There was no change in R.G.'s right toe mean temperature. We speculate that prolonged heavy load carriage may have impaired blood flow or nerve conduction in the hands and inhibited acclimatization. Our data also suggest that despite incidence of moderate trench foot, acclimatization can still occur after resolving this injury.

Induced and repressed proteins together create a specific signature that can be used to identify a toxic agent and its concentration in the environmental matrix. The resulting protein expression signature for each agent will include a small number of the most potent proteins, which can be used to detect the presence and determine the concentration of a toxicant. We exposed the earthworm Eisenia fetida to a range of concentrations of chemical warfare agents (CWA) HD (mustard) and VX (nerve agent) in a natural sandy loam soil. Results demonstrated specificity of protein signatures in response to HD and VX exposure in soil. This study also showed that protein patterns were specific for different concentrations of HD or VX in otherwise clean agent-amended soil. Several proteins were induced in all HD or VX concentrations tested suggesting the potential of identifying the key proteins for use in detection of HD or VX presence in soil regardless of their concentrations. The robustness of the proteome-based response to chemical exposure by soil biota needs to be further investigated by including determinations of protein patterns for chemicals in different soil types and in the presence of additional chemical stressors using variety of soil invertebrate models.

The effects of these persistent and highly mobile in the environment energetic materials on soil biota have not been sufficiently investigated. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) in conjunction with stakeholders, is developing Ecological Soil Screening Level (Eco-SSL) benchmarks for ecological risk assessment (ERA) of contaminants at Superfund sites to identify those contaminants in soil that warrant additional evaluation in a Baseline ERA, and to eliminate those that do not. Eco-SSLs are developed from literature values whenever sufficient quantity and quality of data exist. Insufficient data were available on the toxicity of energetic compounds, RDX and HMX, to soil invertebrates, necessitating toxicity testing. Tests were conducted under conditions preferred for Eco-SSL benchmarks, using a Sassafras sandy loam soil that supports relatively high bioavailability of test compounds. Toxicity testing was performed using enchytraeid reproduction test (ISO/16387 2001) measuring adult survival and juvenile production by the potworm Enchytraeus crypticus in freshly amended soil and weathered/aged amended soil. RDX or HMX had no effect on adult survival in the definitive tests in all treatment concentrations. Juvenile production EC sub(20) values were 3,715 and 8,797 mg kg super(-1) RDX in freshly amended and weathered/aged amended soils, respectively. Juvenile E. crypticus production was not adversely affected by exposure to HMX in freshly amended and weathered/aged amended soils. Juvenile production was stimulated in freshly amended soil up to 21,750 mg kg super(-1) HMX. Results of these toxicity studies will be submitted to the Eco-SSL Task Group for quality control review, and pending approval will be included in the Eco-SSL database for Eco-SSL derivation.

The majority of the shore of most beach fill project tends to be erosive, but unlike design "average" erosion rates, actual erosion rates are variable. Additionally, large projects will also typically include some accretive or stable reaches, and one or more highly erosive "hot spots." This variable response on the part of sand fill to weather and wave conditions can complicate the decision of exactly when and where to initiate a renourishment fill operation.

AN - 17767616; 5924966 AB - Shallow lakes cover > 25% of Alaska's Arctic Coastal Plain. These remain frozen and snow-covered from October to June. The lake snow is thinner, denser, harder and has less water equivalent than snow on the surrounding tundra. It contains less depth hoar than land snow, yet paradoxically is subject to stronger temperature gradients. It also has fewer layers and these have been more strongly affected by wind. Dunes and drifts are better developed on lakes; they have wavelengths of 5-20 m, compared to < 5 m on land. Because of these differences, lake snow has roughly half the thermal insulating capacity of land snow. The winter mass balance on lakes is also different because (1) some snow falls into the water before the lakes freeze, (2) some snow accumulates in drifts surrounding the lakes, and (3) prevailing winds lead to increased erosion and thinner snow on the eastern lake sides. Physical models that extrapolate land snow over lakes without appropriate adjustments for depth, density, distribution and thermal properties will under-predict ice thickness and winter heat losses.

AN - 17598668; 5865889 AB - Heat, fresh- and sea-water balances indicate that the late-summer rate of submarine melting at the terminus of tidewater LeConte Glacier, Alaska, U.S.A., in 2000 was about 12 m d super(-1) w.e., averaged over the submerged face. This is 57% of the estimated total ice loss at the terminus (calving plus melting) at this time. Submarine melting may thus provide a significant contribution to the overall ablation of a tidewater glacier. Oceano-graphic measurements (conductivity-temperature-depth) made 200-500 m from the terminus identified an isohaline (27 ppt) and isothermal (7.2 degree C) layer extending from 130 m depth to the fjord floor. Capping this is a 40 m thick overflow plume, distinguished by high outflow rates, low salinity (22-25 ppt) and lower temperatures (5-6 degree C). Mixing models indicate that fresh water comprised about 11% of this plume; it originates mostly as subglacial discharge whose buoyancy drives convection at the terminus. Deep, warm saline waters are incorporated into the plume as it ascends, causing substantial melting of ice along the submarine face. The calving terminus undergoes seasonal changes that coincide with changes in subglacial discharge and fjord water temperatures, and we suggest that these fluctuations in terminus position are directly related to changes in submarine melting.

The program focused primarily on the juvenile life stage (larval phase) through the application of the selective lampricide 3-trifluoromethyl-4-nitrophenol (TFM) to tributaries of the lake, although the addition of barriers to Lake Ontario tributaries appears to have reduced the reliance on TFM. By 1999, IMSL had eliminated sea lampreys in 20 of the 57 tributaries with historical records of production. Accordingly, the abundance of spawning phase sea lampreys showed a significant downward trend, and substantial declines in marking rates for large lake trout were observed. Targets for control were established through the lake trout rehabilitation plan, fish community objectives, and simulation models incorporating an economic injury level (EIL) approach. The EIL for sea lamprey control is the point in which more treatment is not economically justified. The updated IMSL model developed for Lake Ontario provided a tool to support trade-off analysis to estimate target levels of sea lamprey abundance relative to lake trout harvest. Comparison of model predictions and trends in spawning phase abundance revealed general agreement, but also pointed to inconsistencies that merit further investigation. The EIL of control based on the entire treatment history is 8,100 kg TFM per year, which produces a treatment residual of 4,100 adult sea lampreys. Given recent estimates of transformer production from the Niagara River, the annual contribution from untreated sources is estimated to be in the range of 10,000 to 15,000 adult sea lampreys. The target level (EIL) for adult sea lampreys in Lake Ontario is thus 14,100 to 19,100. Over the past 10 years, Lake Ontario TFM treatments have averaged 4,600 kg per year.

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - An Environmentally Friendly Decontamination Protocol for Ground Water Sampling Devices AN - 16164192; 5649994 AB - Several detergent-washing/air-drying decontamination protocols were tested to determine their ability to remove residual contamination from two types of ground water sampling devices. We tested a relatively simply constructed device, a bailer, and a much more complex, and theoretically more difficult to decontaminate, bladder pump. The devices were decontaminated after sampling ground water that was contaminated with organics that varied in their hydrophobic nature and propensity to be sorbed by the materials in the devices. These studies showed that a hot-detergent wash, hot-water rinse, and hot-air drying protocol was effective.

The periodic nourishment of the stockpile site is required as a mitigation feature for the 1999 construction of a 1,900-ft-long Point Chehalis buried rock revetment extension at Westport, Washington. The barrier spit south of the federal South Jetty structure originally breached in December 1993, requiring costly dredging and emergency placement of 600,000 cu yd of sand to fill the breach in 1994. Winter storms in 2001 again threatened to breach the South Jetty Breach Fill area. Quick, decisive actions as documented in this paper prevented the breach from reoccurring. The South Jetty Breach Fill is now restored to a larger cross section than achieved in 1994 to more closely resemble natural dunes along the Southwest Washington coast. The resulting soft solution has pleased local interests who were concerned that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers would execute an armor rock, jetty extension alternative that had been recommended and approved in an earlier 1997 feasibility study. Instead, the Corps rehandled sand from an existing mitigation stockpile and placed it in this popular public access, recreation beach area. After minor grading, the breach fill site was planted with American dune grass vegetation in November 2002 to reduce wind and wave erosion. The proximity of the mitigation site (sand stockpile) to the breach fill facilitated timely, cost-effective modification to an existing contract for placement of sand to nourish the breach fill.

Despite the very different climate conditions the delta super(18)O of meltwater from all four snowpacks increased as melting progressed. This trend is consistent with theoretical results that model isotopic exchange between water and ice as meltwater percolates through a snowpack. We have estimated the systematic error in the hydrograph separation if the isotopic composition of a snow core were used in place of that of meltwater. Assuming no error in the old water or stream water values, the error in the new water fraction depends on: (1) the isotopic difference between the snow core and the old water; (2) the isotopic difference between the snow core and the meltwater; and (3) the new water fraction contributing to the stream flow during a spring melt event. The error is large when snowmelt contributes a dominant fraction of the stream flow, which may be expected where infiltration of snowmelt is limited (e.g. permafrost, urban areas). A particular challenge will be how to incorporate the changes in isotopic composition of meltwater measured at a point into hydrograph separation models conducted at the watershed scale.

The model has modest input data requirements and is an efficient physically based parameterization that includes the dependency of albedo on solar zenith angle, cloud cover, canopy, snow grain size, litterfall, snowfall, snow depth, and partial snow cover. Measurements used in the model validation include incident spectral irradiances, wavelength-integrated visible and near-infrared albedos, snowfall records, snow depth, snow surface litter fractions, and quantity of fine litter in snow cores. Measured and modelled forest snow albedos were less than open snow albedos during the accumulation phase, when there was little or no surface litter. The model predicts lower albedos in the forest during the accumulation phase because of a spectral shift to less reflective wavelengths of incident radiation under the canopy. Snow grain size was important during both the accumulation and ablation phases. Surface litter fraction, incident spectra, snowpack depth, and partial snow cover were important factors lowering forest albedo during ablation. Despite lower mid-winter albedos in the forest, the snow melted more rapidly in the open. During late ablation, snow albedo in the open became lower than snow albedo in the forest, because of the thinner snow in the open. At the end of the ablation season, partial snow cover affected the albedo in the forest over a longer time period than in the open.

The objective is to establish design and installation criteria to develop an accurate electronic SWE pressure sensor that minimizes errors. We monitored a 3 m snow pillow and installed three prototype electronic SWE sensors of our own design to examine how SWE errors occur. We also measured the heat flux through the prototype sensors and the soil, snow temperature, soil moisture content, and soil thermal conductivity. The SWEs of snow cores were used to assess the accuracy of the snow pillow and prototype sensors. Experimental results indicate that SWE measurement errors occur only when the snow-SWE sensor and/or the snow-soil interfaces are at the melting temperature. The magnitude of SWE errors is related to the diameter of the sensor and the difference in heat flux through the sensor and the surrounding soil. SWE over-measurement errors occur when the heat flux through the sensor is less than through the surrounding soil, producing a snowmelt rate on the sensor that is less than on the adjacent soil. SWE under-measurement errors occur when the heat flux through the sensor is greater than through the surrounding soil. The most severe SWE measurement errors occur during the transition from winter to spring, when the snow cover first reaches an isothermal condition causing a maximum difference in snowmelt rate between an SWE sensor and the surrounding soil. SWE measurement errors are reduced by increasing the SWE sensor diameter, matching the thermal properties of the soil and SWE sensor, allowing water to flow through the sensor, and using a surface cover to diffuse heat into the adjacent soil. SWE measurement errors relax through snow creep mechanisms that redistribute the snow load equally between the sensor and surrounding soil.

AN - 72767457; 12482605 AB - The peptide N-acetyl-CRATKML-amide is an effective inhibitor of type A botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT A) protease activity [Schmidt et al., FEBS Lett. 435 (1998) 61-64]. To improve inhibitor binding, the peptide was modified by replacing cysteine with other sulfhydryl-containing compounds. Ten peptides were synthesized. One peptide adapted the structure of captopril to the binding requirements of BoNT A, but it was a weak inhibitor, suggesting that angiotensin-converting enzyme is not a good model for BoNT A inhibitor development. However, replacing cysteine with 2-mercapto-3-phenylpropionyl yielded a peptide with K(i) of 330 nM, the best inhibitor of BoNT A protease activity reported to date. Additional modifications of the inhibitor revealed structural elements important for binding and supported our earlier findings that, with the exception of P1' arginine, subsites on BoNT A are not highly specific for particular amino acid side chains.

AN - 85366784; pmid-12687742 AB - More research is needed in otolaryngology telemedicine, but it would be a mistake to stop at only determining if telemedicine is as good as an in-person exam. The digital image recorded in a telemedicine encounter can be manipulated to increase diagnostic information not currently available. Radiologists currently take a chest radiograph in which a chest mass or the tip of an nasogastric tube is difficult to visualize, and by inverting the gray scale or viewing other digital manipulations of that image, the mass or tube tip becomes obvious. Examples in otolaryngology might include images of the larynx manipulated to better demonstrate the inflamed tissue of reflux, or images of the tympanic membrane manipulated to better demonstrate early retraction. Despite dramatic and likely continued decreases, equipment cost is still an issue. Current research points to good consumer acceptance, and certainly with each new generation the technology is more readily accepted. As Nesbitt [4] points out, it is certainly not difficult to look to the future and see ubiquitous broadband with video as common as telephone, or even extreme broadband enabling robotics and virtual reality TV with three-dimensional touch. Robotics and genomics will eventually play a greater role in telemedicine and our lives in general. Applications for remote diagnosis in biologic warfare defense and homeland security are currently raising interest in telemedicine. Telemedicine will be combined with new technological advances such as virtual "fly-through" computerized axial tomography examinations. Instead of performing an exploratory tympanotomy, surgeons will use computer programs to "fly through" and examine all aspects of a patient's middle or even inner ear. Spectral imaging of the eardrum, larynx, or oropharynx will immediately identify bacteria without cultures, or gram stain, and potential malignancy without biopsy. By measuring fluorescence emitted from an oropharynx illuminated with a specific visible or nonvisible light spectrum, spectral imaging will be able to provide instant identification of bacteria or evidence of malignant changes. The underlying principles of a successful business model must continue to be applied, with the most critical ingredient for telemedicine's success being the filling of specific health care needs. As long as the need is there, telemedicine in otolaryngology will advance.

AN - 85364193; pmid-12509175 AB - Natural ocular protective measures induced by laser glare at 514 nm were evaluated concomitant with the performance of a tracking task. Light-induced eyelid and pupil responses of 5 volunteers, 1 woman and 4 men, ages 23 to 60 years, were recorded as they tracked a target moving at 0.3 degrees/sec. with an optical sight. Frame-by-frame analysis of video images of the eye allowed assessment of the eyelid response (squint and blink) and measurement of the pupil diameter. Three laser exposure durations (0.1, 1.0, and 3.0 sec.) were used during bright and dim ambient light conditions. All laser exposure trials produced a pupillary constriction with a latency, i.e., the time from the onset of the laser exposure until the pupil began to constrict, of approximately 100 msec. In a representative 3-sec. exposure, the total intraocular energy was reduced by 69% as the pupil diameter decreased from 6.0 to 2.5 mm. For the 0.1-sec. exposures at 1.6 mW/cm2, a blink reflex was observed on 2 of 10 trials under the dim ambient conditions and not observed on 9 trials under bright conditions. For 1- and 3-sec. exposures at 0.33 mW/cm2, a blink reflex was observed on four (3 bright and 1 dim) of the 38 trials. For conditions evaluated, pupillary constriction was consistent and provided some protection when the exposure duration exceeded the pupillary latency period; however, a blink reflex was observed on only a limited number of trials, possibly due to the exposure dose, the small retinal irradiance diameter produced by the laser exposure, and the volunteers' attention to the demanding performance task.

Today, with effective insect repellents and several excellent medications available for chemoprophylaxis, there has never been a better array of quality products to prevent mosquito bites and infection and to suppress parasites once in the blood stream; however, there are thousands of imported cases into nonendemic countries and scores of deaths and near-fatal outcomes every year in returning travelers, soldiers, immigrants, and refugees.

AN - 72797856; 12502169 AB - This 1-year prospective study compared 125 construction engineers and 188 combat artillery soldiers to determine whether there were differences in injury occurrences/ types because of their diverse occupational tasks and training requirements. Also, intrinsic factors were studied to establish any associations with a soldier's risk for injury. Prestudy height, weight, and body mass index and fitness (3.2-km run, sit-ups, push-ups) data were collected prior to the injury medical records review. Approximately 30% of each battalion was studied. For engineers and artillery, 86.0% and 66.0% incurred at least one injury, respectively. Of total soldiers, 64.0% of engineers and 56.4% of artillerymen had injuries associated with limited duty profiles. Total injuries resulted in 743 days of limited duty time (5.9 days per soldier) in engineers and 1,078 days (5.7 days per soldier) in artillery. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were also calculated. The odds of traumatic fractures were (OR = 6.5, 95% CI = 1.8-23.7) 6 times higher in engineers than artillery, but strains/sprains and abrasions/lacerations were (OR = 2.3, 95% CI = 1.5-3.7; OR = 2.5, 95% CI = 1.2-5.0) two times higher in artillery than engineers. The number of limited duty days associated with knee injuries was significantly higher in engineers than artillery (p or = 25 for strains/sprains in both units. Significant differences in injuries were reported between the two units. It is plausible that the differences were related to the diverse training exposures of the units. However, it is beyond the scope of this study to make conclusions about the causes of the injury differences. The data also indicate that body mass and body mass index were identified as modifiable injury risk factors for both units, which suggests that these injuries are preventable.

AN - 72780943; 12489723 AB - Efforts to characterize the surface soil contamination on military training ranges have been compromised by the inability to obtain representative subsamples of soils submitted to analytical laboratories for determination of explosives residues. Two factors affecting subsampling error for explosives residues were examined using soils collected from hand grenade and anti-tank ranges. These factors were increased subsample size and particle size reduction prior to subsampling of soils. Increasing the subsample size from 2 to 50 g did not reduce the soil subsampling error because of the extreme heterogeneous distribution of the solid contaminants. Alternatively, particle size reduction by machine grinding on a ring mill reduced subsampling error to less than 10% relative standard deviation for replicate analyses using 10-g subsamples.

AN - 72765616; 12475837 AB - To determine whether methacholine challenge testing (MCT) provokes vocal cord dysfunction (VCD), as evidenced by inspiratory vocal cord closure on direct laryngoscopy, and whether spirometry and flow-volume loops (FVLs) demonstrate any changes that are suggestive of VCD. Prospective, controlled study. Army medical center. Thirty-four subjects all with normal baseline spirometry. Ten subjects had documented evidence of VCD, 12 subjects had exercise-induced asthma (EIA) and reactive MCT, and 12 subjects served as healthy asymptomatic control subjects. Measurement of spirometry with FVLs and direct laryngoscopy of the vocal cords performed immediately before and after subjects had undergone MCT. Evidence of inspiratory vocal cord adduction was found in four VCD patients. Two patients had adducted vocal cords at baseline, and their conditions were unchanged after undergoing MCT. Two other patients had normal conditions at baseline and demonstrated acute inspiratory vocal cord adduction after undergoing MCT. None of the patients in the EIA or control groups had evidence of VCD at baseline or after undergoing MCT. Truncation of the inspiratory limb of the FVL after MCT was noted in five patients, which correlated with evidence of VCD in 60% of these patients. One EIA patient had truncation of the inspiratory FVL after MCT, and no changes were found in the control group. A comparison of spirometry between EIA patients and VCD patients with and without evidence of inspiratory vocal cord adduction during MCT showed no significant differences. The findings suggest that MCT may cause an acute episode of vocal cord adduction and that positive results may not reflect underlying reactive airways disease. However, a flattening or truncation of the inspiratory FVL after the patient undergoes MCT is not diagnostic for the presence of inspiratory vocal cord adduction.

AN - 72742738; 12464469 AB - The consequences of receiving a cutaneous sulfur mustard (SM) burn are prolonged wound healing and secondary infection. This study was undertaken to find a treatment that promotes quick healing with few complications and minimal disfigurement. Multiple deep SM burns (4 cm diameter) were generated on the ventrum of weanling pigs and treated at 48 h. Four treatments were compared: (1) full-thickness CO(2) laser debridement followed by skin grafting; (2) full-thickness sharp surgical tangential excision followed by skin grafting, the "Gold Standard" used in deep thermal burns management; (3) partial-thickness laser ablation with no grafting; and (4) partial-thickness sharp excision with no grafting. A computer controlled, raster scanned, high-powered continuous wave (cw) CO(2) laser was utilized. Ulceration, wound geometry, and wound contraction were evaluated during a 36-day healing period. Histopathological evaluations were conducted at the end of the healing period. Engraftment rates were similar between both methods of debridement. Laser debridement followed by skin grafting was as efficacious in improving the wound healing of deep SM burns as the "Gold Standard." Full-thickness laser debridement of these small total body surface area (TBSA) burns was time efficient and provided adequate beds for split-thickness skin grafting. Laser debridement offered additional benefits that included hemostatic control during surgery and minimal debridement of normal perilesional skin. Mid-dermal debridement by sharp excision or laser ablation without grafting produced less desirable results but was better than no treatment.

The DMSS integrates data from sources worldwide in a continuously expanding relational database that documents the military and medical experiences of service members throughout their careers. The Department of Defense Serum Repository (DoDSR) is a central archive of sera drawn from service members for medical surveillance purposes. Currently, the DMSS contains data relevant to more than 7 million individuals who have served in the armed forces since 1990, and the DoDSR contains more than 27 million specimens that are linkable to data in the DMSS. Recent applications of the DMSS and DoDSR provide glimpses of the capabilities and uses of comprehensive public health surveillance systems.

This study draws on the state strength literature to identify relevant country macrostructural factors that can contribute to different kinds & levels of intensity of conflict & country instabilities. A pattern classification algorithm -- fuzzy analysis of statistical evidence (FASE) -- is used to analyze the relationships between country macrostructural factors & historical instances of country instability. A split-sample validation design is used to evaluate the ability of FASE to generate competent predictions, using the standard forecasting performance metrics overall accuracy, recall, & precision. The results demonstrate the potential for FASE to accurately forecast not just the occurrence but also the level of intensity of country-specific instabilities out 5 years with about 80% overall accuracy. 4 Tables, 2 Figures, 1 Appendix, 57 References.

Perch selection has further consequences for territorial advertisement and display. We quantified perch characteristics of Acadian Flycatchers in three bottomland hardwood forests in Arkansas, Louisiana, and South Carolina. We compared measurements made at flycatcher perches with those made at randomly selected trees and branches. In two of our study areas, flycatchers perched on dead limbs more often than expected by chance, and foliage volume was less around flycatcher perches than at randomly selected branches. Both of these results suggest a preference for foraging and displaying sites that provide a relatively unobstructed view. Discriminant function analysis revealed substantial overlap in perch-site characteristics among study areas, indicating that species-wide preferences were at least as important as local conditions in perch-site selection by Acadian Flycatchers.

Theoretically, neglect of the current in analysis of pressure data can lead to order-one errors in wave height estimates. Wave height is overestimated by neglecting flood current and underestimated by neglecting ebb current. A collocated wave buoy and bottom-mounted pressure gauge were deployed at Willapa Bay, Washington, to evaluate the significance of including current in pressure data analysis. Wave heights were overestimated by up to 20% if current was neglected. Larger current-induced errors in wave height were prevented by truncation of high-frequency energy to exclude pressure system noise. Truncation of the spectra leads to overestimates of mean wave period and underestimates of wave height. Adding a theoretical tail to the spectra reduces truncation errors. If current measurements are not available for pressure gauge analysis, reasonable results can be achieved by applying a conservative high-frequency cutoff and adding a theoretical tail.

These strains were tested along with a previously tested strain from a Hawaiian source (OAHU strain). Mosquitoes were fed on 2- to 3-day-old chickens previously inoculated with a New York strain (Crow 397-99) of WN. All of the NA strains were competent laboratory vectors of WN, with transmission rates of 36, 50, 83, and 92% for the FRED, CHEV, OAHU, and TAMU strains, respectively. The extrinsic incubation period for WN in Ae. albopictus held at 26 degree C was estimated to be 10 days. Based on efficiency of viral transmission, evidence of natural infection, bionomics, and distribution, Ae. albopictus could be an important bridge vector of WN in the southeastern USA.

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Mutagenic Spectrum of Butadiene-Derived N1-Deoxyinosine Adducts and N super(6),N super(6)-Deoxyadenosine Intrastrand Cross-Links in Mammalian Cells AN - 18709854; 5594947 AB - Reactive metabolites of 1,3-butadiene, including 1,2-epoxy-3-butene (BDO), 1,2:3,4-diepoxybutane (BDO sub(2)), and 3,4-epoxy-1,2-butanediol (BDE), form both stable and unstable base adducts in DNA and have been implicated in producing genotoxic effects in rodents and human cells. N1 deoxyadenosine adducts are unstable and can undergo either hydrolytic deamination to yield N1 deoxyinosine adducts or Dimroth rearrangement to yield N super(6) adducts. The dominant point mutation observed at AT sites in both in vivo and in vitro mutagenesis studies using BD and its epoxides has been A arrow right T transversions followed by A arrow right G transitions. To understand which of the butadiene adducts are responsible for mutations at AT sites, the present study focuses on the N1 deoxyinosine adduct at C2 of BDO and N super(6),N super(6)-deoxyadenosine intrastrand cross-links derived from BDO sub(2). These lesions were incorporated site-specifically and stereospecifically into oligodeoxynucleotides which were engineered into mammalian shuttle vectors for replication bypass and mutational analyses in COS-7 cells. Replication of DNAs containing the R,R-BDO sub(2) intrastrand cross-link between N super(6) positions of deoxyadenosine yielded a high frequency (59%) of single base substitutions at the 3' adducted base, while 19% mutagenesis was detected using the S,S-diastereomer. Comparable studies using the R- and S-diastereomers of the N1 deoxyinosine adduct gave rise to similar to 50 and 80% A arrow right G transitions with overall mutagenic frequencies of 59 and 90%, respectively. Collectively, these data establish a molecular basis for A arrow right G transitions that are observed following in vivo and in vitro exposures to BD and its epoxides, but fail to reveal the source of the A arrow right T transversions that are the dominant point mutation.

The protective performance of these clothing systems against burn injuries was investigated in full-scale manikin tests. The protective performance of fabric layers of these clothing systems was also examined in bench-scale tests. In addition, air gap thicknesses and distributions of the five clothing systems were determined by using a three-dimensional laser scanning technique. In this paper, test conditions of the manikin and bench-scale tests are compared, and the test results are correlated in light of the air gap measurements. The behavior of individual sensors on the manikin with similar test conditions to those of bench-scale tests are compared with the bench-scale tests. It is found that if the air gap distribution of a clothing system is known, bench-scale tests could provide useful information for full-scale performance, especially bench-scale tests with zero air gap measurements.

These assays offer a viable, cost-effective method for analysis of these ubiquitous toxins. Further, their sensitivity in undiluted urine makes them ideal candidates for evaluating human exposure.

Methods: Untrained subjects were exposed to one of five conditions: low-heat passive warm-up (N = 10), high-heat passive warm-up (N = 4), or active warm-up (N = 9), preceding eccentric exercise; eccentric exercise without warm-up (N = 10); or high-heat passive warm-up without eccentric exercise (N = 10). Passive warm-up of the elbow flexors was achieved using pulsed short-wave diathermy, and active warm-up was achieved by concentric contraction. Creatine kinase (CK) activity, strength, range of motion, swelling, and muscle soreness were observed before treatment (baseline) and 24, 48, 72, and 168 h after treatment. Results: High-heat passive warm-up without eccentric exercise did not affect any marker of muscle damage and was used as our control group. Markers of muscle damage were not different between groups that did or did not conduct warm-up before eccentric exercise. The active warm-up and eccentric groups exhibited a greater circumferential increase than controls (P < 0.0002), however, that was not observed after passive warm-up. Additionally, the active warm-up group exhibited a greater CK response than controls at 72 h (P < 0.05). The high-heat passive warm-up before eccentric exercise group exhibited significant change from controls at the least number of time points, but due to a small sample size (N = 4), these data should be viewed as preliminary. Conclusion: Our observations suggest that passive warm-up performed before eccentric exercise may be more beneficial than active warm-up or no warm-up in attenuating swelling but does not prevent, attenuate, or resolve more quickly the other clinical symptoms of eccentric muscle damage as produced in this study.

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Reduction of blast noise by a snow cover AN - 16153337; 5653461 AB - Experimental measurements were conducted to determine the effect of ground conditions near the source on blast noise levels. The measurements were conducted at two locations, one with temperate soil conditions and one with a seasonal snow cover. Pressure sensors were used to record the waveforms produced by the detonation of 0.57-kg charges of C4 explosive at distances between 10 m and 110 m. The measured blast waveforms were elongated and the peak amplitudes were significantly reduced at all distances when a snow cover was present. These measurements show that the interaction of the blast wave with the ground near the explosion is an important factor in the blast noise levels received at long propagation distances. This finding indicates that modification or control of the ground properties near military artillery training locations is a potential method of mitigating the noise produced by these activities.

AN - 72922205; 12450414 AB - The national incidence of and risk factors for hospitalized poisonings in renal transplant recipients has not been reported. Historical cohort study of 39,628 renal transplant recipients in the United States Renal Data System between 1 July 1994 and 30 June 1998. Associations with time to hospitalizations for a primary diagnosis of poisonings (ICD-9 codes 960.x-989.x) within three years after renal transplant were assessed by Cox Regression. The incidence of hospitalized poisonings was 2.3 patients per 1000 person years. The most frequent causes of poisonings were immunosuppressive agents (25.3%), analgesics/antipyretics (14.1%), psychotropic agents (10.0%), and insulin/antidiabetic agents (7.1%). In Cox Regression analysis, low body mass index (BMI, 28.3 kg/m2, adjusted hazard ratio (AHR), 3.02, 95% CI, 1.45-6.28, and allograft rejection, AHR 1.83, 95% CI, 1.15-2.89, were the only factors independently associated with hospitalized poisonings. Hospitalized poisonings were independently associated with increased mortality (AHR, 1.54, 95% CI 1.22-1.92, p = 0.002). Hospitalized poisonings were associated with increased mortality after renal transplantation. However, almost all reported poisonings in renal transplant recipients were due to the use of prescribed medications. Allograft rejection and low BMI were the only independent risk factors for poisonings identified in this population.

Mapping of the Ia domain involved in docking with Ib and cellular internalization AN - 18507565; 5489029 AB - Clostridium perfringens iota toxin consists of two unlinked proteins. The binding component (Ib) is required to internalize into cells an enzymatic component (Ia) that ADP-ribosylates G-actin. To characterize the Ia domain that interacts with Ib, fusion proteins were constructed between the C. botulinum C3 enzyme, which ADP-ribosylates Rho, and various truncated versions of Ia. These chimeric molecules retained the wild type ADP-ribosyltransferase activity specific for Rho and were recognized by antibodies against C3 enzyme and Ia. Internalization of each chimera into Vero cells was assessed by measuring the disorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and intracellular ADP-ribosylation of Rho. Fusion proteins containing C3 linked to the C terminus of Ia were transported most efficiently into cells like wild type Ia in an Ib-dependent manner that was blocked by bafilomycin A1. The minimal Ia fragment that promoted translocation of Ia-C3 chimeras into cells consisted of 128 central residues (129-257). These findings revealed that iota toxin is a suitable system for mediating the entry of heterologous proteins such as C3 into cells.

AN - 72935436; 12431277 AB - There is little information on how target lipid levels can be achieved in end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients in a systematic, multidisciplinary fashion. We retrospectively reviewed a pharmacist-directed hyperlipidemia management program for chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients. All 26 adult patients on chronic HD at a tertiary care medical facility were entered into the program. A clinical pharmacist was responsible for laboratory monitoring, patient counseling, and the initiation and dosage adjustment of an appropriate 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor (statin) using a dosing algorithm and monitoring guidelines. The low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol goal was leq; 100 mg/dl. A renal dietitian provided nutrition counseling and the nephrologist was notified of potential or existing drug interactions or adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Patients received a flyer containing lipid panel results to encourage compliance. Data was collected at program initiation and for 6 months thereafter. At the start of the program, 58% of patients were at target LDL cholesterol. At 6 months, 88% had achieved target LDL (p = 0.015). Mean LDL cholesterol decreased from 96 +/- 5 to 80 +/- 3 mg/dl (p < 0.01), and mean total cholesterol decreased from 170 +/- 7 to 151 +/- 4 mg/dl (p < 0.01). Fifteen adjustments in drug therapy were made. Eight adverse drug reactions were identified; 2 required drug discontinuation or an alternative agent. Physicians were alerted to 8 potential drug-drug interactions, and appropriate monitoring was performed. Our findings demonstrate both feasibility and efficacy of a multidisciplinary approach in management of hyperlipidemia in HD patients.

AN - 72720782; 12448619 AB - Despite decades of public education, cigarette smoking remains a serious health problem. The treatment approach at Tripler Army Medical Center is a unique collaboration of family practice physicians and health psychologists providing combination therapy to patients attempting to quit smoking. This article discusses a program evaluation of the Tripler Army Medical Center smoking cessation program. Patients attempting to quit smoking were assisted with a combination of cognitive-behavioral group therapy and sustained-release bupropion hydrochloride. At 6 months postintervention, patients who attended the smoking cessation programs were contacted via telephone and asked to complete a survey regarding their smoking status. One hundred forty-four participants completed the survey. Thirty-five percent of all contacted attendees remained abstinent from smoking at 6 months after intervention. A significantly greater percentage of men quit than women. There were no significant differences of abstinence rates by any other demographic characteristic or smoking history variable. Family practice physicians and health psychologists providing a combination of pharmacological and group cognitive-behavior therapy for nicotine dependence are effective in promoting abstinence from smoking.

AN - 72534254; 12175336 AB - Clostridium perfringens type E iota toxin consists of two unlinked proteins designated as iota a (Ia; molecular mass approximately 47 kDa), an ADP-ribosyltransferase and iota b (Ib; molecular mass approximately 81 kDa) which binds to the cell surface and facilitates Ia entry into the cytosol. By Western-blot analysis, Ib incubated with Vero cells at 37 degrees C generated a cell-associated, SDS-insoluble oligomer of Ib (molecular mass>220 kDa) within 15 s, which was still evident 110 min after washing cells. Ib oligomerization was temperature, but not pH, dependent and was facilitated by a cell-surface protein(s). Within 5 min at 37 degrees C, cell-bound Ib generated Na(+)/K(+) permeable channels that were blocked by Ia. However, Ib-induced channels or oligomers were not formed at 4 degrees C. Two monoclonal antibodies raised against Ib that recognize unique, neutralizing epitopes within residues 632-655 either inhibited Ib binding to cells and/or oligomerization, unlike a non-neutralizing monoclonal antibody that binds within Ib residues 28-66. The Ib protoxin (molecular mass approximately 98 kDa), which does not facilitate iota cytotoxicity but binds to Vero cells, did not oligomerize or form ion-permeable channels on cells, and neither trypsin nor chymotrypsin treatment of cell-bound Ib protoxin induced large complex formation. The link between Ib oligomers and iota toxicity was also apparent with a resistant cell line (MRC-5), which bound to Ib with no evidence of oligomerization. Overall, these studies revealed that the biological activity of iota toxin is dependent on a long-lived, cell-associated Ib complex that rapidly forms ion-permeable channels in cell membranes. These results further reveal the similarities of C. perfringens iota toxin with other bacterial binary toxins produced by Bacillus anthracis and C. botulinum.

AN - 72158031; 12375092 AB - Both permit requirements and ecological assessments have been used to evaluate mitigation success. This analysis combines these two approaches to evaluate mitigation required under Section 404 of the United States Clean Water Act (CWA) and Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act, which allow developers to provide compensatory mitigation for unavoidable impacts to wetlands. This study reviewed permit files and conducted field assessments of mitigation sites to evaluate the effectiveness of mitigation required by the US Army Corps of Engineers for all permits issued in Orange County, California from 1979 through 1993. The 535 permit actions approved during this period allowed 157 ha of impacts. Mitigation was required on 70 of these actions, with 152 ha of enhanced, restored, and created habitat required for 136 ha of impacts. In 15 permit actions, no mitigation project was constructed, but in only two cases was the originally permitted project built; the two cases resulted in an unmitigated loss of 1.6 ha. Of the remaining 55 sites, 55% were successful at meeting the permit conditions while 11% failed to do so. Based on a qualitative assessment of habitat quality, only 16% of the sites could be considered successful and 26% were considered failures. Thus, of the 126 ha of habitat lost due to the 55 projects, only 26 ha of mitigation was considered successful. The low success rate was not due to poor enforcement, although nearly half of the projects did not comply with all permit conditions. Mitigation success could best be improved by requiring mitigation plans to have performance standards based on habitat functions.

Major damage was caused almost entirely by soil liquefaction in the alluvium. The critical factor was the level of earthquake ground motion.The Bhuj earthquake showed that peak horizontal accelerations (PHAs)0.2 g were hazardous, when unconsolidated granular foundation soils were water saturated. N values of 0.2 g, must be evaluated over the full area beneath a new dam and all soils deemed susceptible to liquefaction must be either removed or treated. For remediating an old dam, reliable options are removal and replacement of liquefiable alluvium beneath upstream and downstream portions of the dam, combined with building berms designed to provide stability for the dam should there be a strength loss in soils beneath the dam.

The results may be relevant to radar efforts on Mars because of arid conditions and the presence of ice. We interpret profiles from two sites in the eastern Taylor Valley to show glaciolacustrine and glaciofluvial stratigraphy. At the Fairbanks sites, supplementary drilling was required to differentiate between reflections from conductive bedrock, a graphitic schist, and those from the water table at depths of 20-25 m. At a site on the North Slope of Alaska, we profiled present and remnant freezing fronts in an alluvial floodplain. The interface reflectivities beneath Taylor Valley may be a function of only density contrasts, since free water, and possibly ice, is absent. (modified journ. abstr.)

The dipstick assays were the Integrated Diagnostics (Baltimore, MD) Dip-S-Ticks Scrub Recombinant (r56) dipstick test (INDX assay) and the PanBio (Brisbane, Australia) Scrub Typhus IgM and IgG Rapid Immunochromatographic test (PanBio assay). One of the ELISAs used pooled cell lysates of Karp, Kato, and Gilliam strain Orientia tsutsugamushi as antigen (pooled-antigen ELISA), and the other used a recombinant r56 protein as the antigen (recombinant ELISA). With a panel of 123 positive and 227 negative sera, sensitivity and specificity of the assays were as follows: INDX assay, IgG, 60% and 95%, IgM, 60% and 97%; PanBio assay, IgG, 94% and 96%, IgM, 83% and 93%; IFA (1:400 cutoff), IgG, 91% and 96%, IgM, 85% and 98%; pooled-antigen ELISA, IgG (1:1600 cutoff), 97% and 89%, IgM (1:400 cutoff), 94% and 91%; recombinant ELISA, IgG (1:1600 cutoff), 97% and 92%, IgM (1:400 cutoff), 93% and 94%. Because of its excellent performance and use of a standardized, commercially available antigen, the recombinant ELISA is suitable for use in a diagnostic laboratory, where it may be able to replace the IFA and IIP assays. In contrast, the PanBio dipstick assay was easy to perform and did not require sophisticated equipment, making it suitable for use in rural areas where more sophisticated diagnostic tests such as the ELISA and IFA may not be available.

It is therefore not at all surprising that ocular tissues are also more vulnerable to ultraviolet (UV) and light damage than the skin. For this reason, humans have evolved with certain anatomical, physiological, and behavioral traits that protect this critical organ from the UV damage that would otherwise be certain from the intense bath of overhead solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) when we are outdoors during daylight. For example, the UV exposure threshold dose for photokeratitis ("welders' flash" or "snow blindness") - if measured as falling on a horizontal ground surface - would be reached in less than 10 minutes around midday in the summer sun. There are three critical ocular structures that could be affected by UV exposure: the cornea, the lens, and the retina. The cornea transmits radiant energy only at 295 nm and above. The crystalline lens absorbs almost all incident energy to wavelengths of nearly 400 nm. In youth, a very small amount of UV-A reaches the retina, but the lens becomes more absorbing with age. Thus there are intraocular filters that effectively filter different parts of the UV spectrum and allow only of the order of 1% or less to actually reach the retina. Nevertheless, this small fraction of energy - if phototoxic - could still be of concern. Finally, oblique rays entering the eye from the temporal side, can actually reach the equatorial (germinative) area of the lens.

Home ranges of coatis averaged 13.57 km2 plus or minus 1.72 SE for troops (n = 9) and 6.11 plus or minus 1.42 km2 for solitary males (n = 7; kernel-density estimator). Sizes of home ranges and core areas did not change during the study, even though density of coatis declined by greater than or equal to 60%. Home ranges of males overlapped less than or equal to 61%, home ranges of troops overlapped less than or equal to 80%, and home ranges of males overlapped those of troops less than or equal to 67%. Locations of annual home ranges and core areas shifted slightly from year to year, indicating minor range drift but no nomadism by radiocollared coatis in this population. Mortality due to predation was significantly higher in the periphery of the home range than that predicted based on the probability of occurrence.

This study determined the effects of Cr supplementation on performance of military training tasks. Two groups (Cr and placebo [Pl]) of 13 male soldiers each performed 3 consecutive military obstacle course runs ( similar to 3 minutes over 7 obstacles with a 2-minute rest between runs) followed by a rifle marksmanship task on 3 occasions (T sub(1), T sub(2), and T sub(3)), each separated by 5 days. They also completed a bench press protocol (5 sets to failure at 70% of 1 repetition maximum) and answered the Profile of Mood States questionnaire during each test session. Testing was done 3 times. No supplementation was given before T sub(1). Supplementation was provided using sports bars, with both groups receiving Pl bars between T sub(1) and T sub(2), whereas from T sub(2) to T sub(3) the Cr group consumed 24 g per day of Cr monohydrate in sports bars and the Pl group consumed an equal amount (kilocalories) of Pl sports bars. Creatine usage resulted in a significant (14%) increase in total bench press repetitions (p less than or equal to 0.05), but no difference between groups in obstacle course run times for the 3 runs from T sub(2) to T sub(3). Marksmanship or mood was not affected by Cr supplementation. An increase of 1.4 kg in body mass (p less than or equal to 0.005) and a 0.5% decrease in percent body fat (p less than or equal to 0.05) were observed after Cr ingestion. Creatine supplementation over 5 days improved performance during a controlled strength test but did not significantly improve military obstacle course performance.

Methods: Ten male soldiers were tested on days 1 (D1), 3 (D3), and 4 (D4) of a control and an experimental week that included prolonged physical work (total daily energy expenditure similar to 4500 kcal times d super(-1)), underfeeding ( similar to 1600 kcal times d super(-1)), and sleep deprivation ( similar to 2 h times d super(-1)). Body composition was measured with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Ballistic power was assessed by 30 repetitive squat jumps and bench-press throws. Military-relevant occupational performance was evaluated with a 10-min box lift, obstacle course, grenade throw, rifle marksmanship, and a 25-min wall-build task. Results: Fat-free mass (-2.3%) and fat mass (-7.3%) declined (P less than or equal to 0.05) during SUSOPS. Squat-jump mean power (-9%) and total work (-15%) declined (P less than or equal to 0.05) during SUSOPS. Bench-press power output, grenade throw, and marksmanship for pop-up targets were not affected. Obstacle course and box-lift performances were lower (P less than or equal to 0.05) on D3 but showed some recovery on D4. Wall building was similar to 25% lower (P less than or equal to 0.05) during SUSOPS. Conclusion: Decrements in performance during SUSOPS are primarily restricted to tasks that recruit muscles that are overutilized without adequate recovery. General military skill tasks and occupational physical performance tasks are fairly well maintained.

AN - 72183071; 12379573 AB - Whether marked LDL reduction to levels well below 100 mg/dL would further reduce the burden of cardiovascular disease is controversial. We compared the effects of 2 statins with widely differing potencies for LDL reduction (pravastatin 40 mg/d and atorvastatin 80 mg/d) on carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT). This was a single-center, randomized, clinical trial of 161 patients (mean age, 60 years; 71.4% male; 46% with known cardiovascular disease) that met National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) II criteria for lipid-lowering therapy. The effects of atorvastatin (80 mg/d; n=79) and pravastatin (40 mg/d; n=82) on CIMT were compared using blinded, serial assessments of the far wall of the distal common carotid artery. Baseline CIMT and other characteristics were similar between study groups. As anticipated, atorvastatin was substantially more potent for LDL reduction after 12 months: in the atorvastatin group, LDL cholesterol was 76+/-23 mg/dL after 12 months (-48.5%); LDL cholesterol was 110+/-30 mg/dL in the pravastatin group (-27.2%; P<0.001). Atorvastatin induced progressive CIMT regression over 12 months (change in CIMT, -0.034+/-0.021 mm), whereas CIMT was stable in the pravastatin group (change of 0.025+/- 0.017 mm; P=0.03). Marked LDL reduction (<100 mg/dL) with a high-potency statin provides superior efficacy for atherosclerosis regression at 1 year. This early effect on CIMT, a surrogate for clinical benefit, suggests that marked LDL reduction with synthetic statins may provide enhanced reduction in clinical coronary event rates.

AN - 72118525; 12270597 AB - The p53 protein is widely regarded as an important sensor of genotoxic damage in cells, and mutations in p53 are the most frequent observed in human cancers. Rapid assays for evaluating the potential of a chemical or physical agent to alter the transcriptional regulatory role of p53 may therefore serve as useful tools in toxicological research. In this study, the use of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) as a live cell reporter to assess the transactivation response of p53 to chemical and physical agents was evaluated. A stable murine bone marrow stromal cell line (D2XRIIGFP24) expressing EGFP under control of p53 response elements was established. D2XRIIGFP24 cells displayed low constitutive background fluorescence which was significantly enhanced in response to exposure to agents that induced p53 protein levels. Increases in EGFP fluorescence in response to oxidative and nitrosative stress as well as UVC irradiation were dose-dependent, detectable within 3 h of exposure and correlated closely with the amount of p53 protein accumulated within the cell. The results demonstrate the potential for rapid and early detection of p53 transactivation using the EGFP reporter approach and indicate this approach is adaptable to a variety of fluorescent assay techniques and a useful cell model for molecular toxicology research.

Average values ranged from 0.078 W m super(-1) K super(-1) for new snow to 0.290 W m super(-1) K super(-1) for an ubiquitous wind slab. k sub(s) increased with increasing density, consistent with published equations, but could also be reliably estimated from the metamorphic state of the snow. Using measured values of k sub(s) and snow stratigraphy, the average bulk value for the full snowpack was 0.14 W m super(-1) K super(-1). In contrast, k sub(s) inferred from ice growth and temperature gradients in the snow was 0.33 W m super(-1) K super(-1). The mismatch arises in part because the second estimate is based on measurements from an aggregate scale that includes enhanced heat flow due to two- and three-dimensional snow and ice geometry. A finite element model suggests that the complex geometry produces areas of concentrated heat loss at the snow surface. These "hot spots," however, increase the apparent conductivity only by a factor of 1.4, not enough to fully explain the mismatch. Nonconductive heat transfer mechanisms, like natural and forced air convection, may also be operating in the snowpack, though the ubiquitous presence of low permeability wind slabs potentially limits their effectiveness. The relative contributions of effects due to snow and ice geometric and nonconductive processes within the snowpack remain uncertain. JF - Journal of Geophysical Research. C.

Compounds produced by AA2 pyrolysis were compared to compounds detected in the gaseous effluent from AA2 incineration. The light permanent gases and most of the higher molecular weight byproducts produced by AA2 incineration are replicated by laboratory pyrolysis on AA2. The reverse case also holds whereby 18 out of 24 high molecular weight AA2 pyrolytic byproducts are found in the incinerator emissions. Poor matching, however, was obtained between the two processes for the volatile, water-soluble species. None of these low molecular weight compounds produced under pyrolytic conditions were detected in the AA2 incinerator samples, likely indicating inefficient capture of these compounds from the effluent stream. Separate pyrolytic degradation of the individual components of AA2 provides evidence that nearly all of the incomplete combustion products detected during incineration originate not from the prevalent energetic ingredients but rather from the minor and trace additives in AA2. In addition, pyrolysis successfully identified the AA2 components capable of surviving the incineration process intact. This work illustrates the potential of bench-scale pyrolysis for predicting incineration behavior.

Today, however, poets & soldiers operate in an altered relation. The association of poetry with often violent action is very much alive, yet the once intertwined existence of soldier & poet -- an incorporation that perhaps reached its apex in the figure of the WWI soldier-poet -- has been replaced by diffidence, curiosity, & sometimes distrust. This climate of estrangement notwithstanding, poetry thrives at the US Military Academy, where all plebes take a core curriculum literature class. Cadets emerge from this class with a recognition of the long-standing connections between literature & war; the historical role of poetry in shaping culture, attitudes, & values; & the ongoing imperative for military officers to be able to use language with precision.

Hood National Forest, Oregon AN - 51982145; 2003-043333 AB - Trace element analysis of obsidian allows us to identify the sources of artifacts made from this desirable tool stone. Most obsidian studies focus on material recovered from a single site the 260 obsidian artifacts in this study were recovered from 72 sites on the east side of the Mt. Hood National Forest. These were identified as originating from 18 known and 12 unknown sources. The known sources include major regional quarries, local sources and an unusual number of small sources located some distance away. The artifacts in this study were recovered from short-term seasonal (summer) camps and have a more complex distribution then that of near by winter settlements. The implications for identification of territorial boundaries (using the local sources), long and short distance trade, seasonal round, and site age are explored.

Electronic student response systems can be efficient and highly effective vehicles for faculty assessment of student learning in the classroom. In Spring 2002 the electronic Classroom Performance System (manufactured by eInstruction) was incorporated in Geosc 20: Planet Earth, a general education course with approximately 300 students. Both formal and informal assessments of the pedagogical effectiveness of this technology are in progress. The Classroom Performance System (CPS) is a wireless system that calculates student responses to questions posed in class by an instructor. Students discuss a given question in peer groups and respond using a remote transmitter that is programmed with an individual student identification code. Student response data are then calculated and displayed in the classroom using a standard LCD projector. This allows the instructor to gauge student understanding of a given topic in real time. Preliminary assessment of the CPS system and associated teaching and learning techniques consists of a 30-question student survey, daily course attendance data, and informal feedback from over 25 Penn State faculty and administrators who have visited the classroom. Of the 200 students who completed the survey, 65% agreed (13% disagreed) that the CPS system helped to gauge their level of understanding of course material. Approximately 75% of the students agreed (10% disagreed) that the CPS system reinforced important concepts presented in lecture. Over 80% of those surveyed were "moderately" to "completely" satisfied with the system during the first semester of classroom use. A significant (60-70%) majority of the students recommend the use of CPS technology in Geosc 20 and other courses offered at Penn State. Lecture attendance rates increased dramatically in Spring 2002. In past semesters attendance has reportedly been as low as 50% at mid-semester. Mean attendance in Spring 2002 was approximately 81%. Our surveys indicate that a majority of students feel the integration of response system technology into class lecture increased course content and facilitated higher order learning during class time.

Elevated BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene) concentrations (2-10 mg/L) are measured in the shallow groundwater that flows through an originally aerobic upland into an anaerobic wetland, discharging into Tarr Creek. The study area is geochemically heterogeneous both spatially and with depth. Terminal electron accepting processes along the contaminated flow path range from iron and sulfate reduction to methanogenesis, and along the uncontaminated path from oxygen and nitrate reduction to iron reduction along deeper paths (Schreiber and Bahr, 1999). An air sparging system, activated 11/8/01, injects air 3-13ft below the water table to remove VOCs and to possibly aid in microbial degradation of BTEX. The spatial variability in groundwater chemistry in the area affected by the BTEX-plume as well as the large existing array of multi-level samplers provide a unique opportunity to conduct a detailed chemical analysis as the air sparging induced oxygen plume migrates through the system. This allows assessment of the effects of subsurface aeration on redox reactions involving dissolved iron and oxygen, the efficiency of BTEX-remediation, and the microbial contaminant degradation. Weekly sparging perturbations and a winter block without sparging provide potential chemical signatures in the groundwater and allow for analysis based on sequence and timing involved in the migration of oxygen-iron reactions from the source area to the discharge point. The specific reactions of interest involve iron II oxidation during sparging followed by possible renewed iron reduction when sparging ceases and available oxygen is consumed by microbial oxidation of BTEX and natural organic matter. Preliminary results show that constant dissolved iron concentrations persist in the wetland area 8 months following the month of initial sparging, suggesting the rapid consumption of the oxygen plume along the flow path. Additionally, sampling results along the contaminated transect, after the initial sparging event, indicate depletion of introduced oxygen electron acceptor followed by the rapid recovery of dissolved iron levels and renewal of microbial oxidation of BTEX.

Easterbrook distinguished scientist award AN - 51775770; 2005-000229 AB - Graded subaerial fluvial systems are stabilized in part by feedbacks between erosion/deposition and the hydrologic potential gradient arising from slope (Easterbrook Sfc Proc & Landforms 1999). Subglacial streams fed by surface melt typically dominate glacial sediment budgets (Hunter et al. 1996 J. Glac) and cause faster geomorphic change than do subaerial fluvial systems (Hallet et al 1996 Global Planet Change). Subglacial-stream potential gradient is largely controlled by the ice-air surface slope with only indirect stabilizing feedbacks. We hypothesize that the most important stabilizing feedback for such subglacial systems arises from glaciohydraulic supercooling of water flowing through glacially produced overdeepenings. This process grows ice in stream channels when erosion causes adverse slopes to become too steep, thereby reducing erosion and sediment transport (Lawson et al. 1998 J. Glac). Plucking likely controls subglacial bedrock erosion, and increases with sliding speed (Hallet 1996 Ann Glac) and with water-pressure fluctuations that are linked to water influx (Alley et al. 1999 GSA Spec Pap 337). Localization of water input by crevassing over bed convexities is hypothesized to form overdeepenings in bedrock (Hooke 1991 GSA Bull), with erosion limited by supercooling that damps pressure fluctuations if adverse slopes of overdeepenings become too steep. Sediments overridden by advancing glaciers are primarily recycled by subglacial streams at rates also hypothesized to be limited by supercooling. Ice accretion during supercooling traps mainly fine-grained sediment, subsequently producing debris-flow and meltout diamictons when released at the glacier margin (Lawson 1979 CRREL Rept), while bedload in subglacial channels is trapped subglacially (Pearce et al 2001 AGU Fall Meet), contributing to distinct deposits and landforms as well as reducing slopes to feed back on supercooling and sediment transport. Early studies on glacial erosion and often-overdeepened fjords by John Andrews and coworkers (Andrews et al., and Dowdeswell and Andrews, in J. T. Andrews ed 1985 Quaternary Environments) contributed to progress in these areas.

Since seismic and acoustic signals follow curving ray paths, they provide essential non-line-of-sight detection and tracking capabilities. However, this attribute also makes these signals highly sensitive to environmental and meteorological conditions. This sensitivity must be considered when deploying sensor networks, in analyzing their performance, and adapting each sensor to local geological conditions. Changes in near-surface geologic boundary conditions and material properties have first order effects on surface wave modes, which are the primary signals of interest. Our primary thrust is thus to define the logic of and develop a preliminary working model for predicting near-surface conditions. We will develop an inferential geologic model using simple geological rules of thumb, remotely sensed imagery, and GIS databases. The model will extract geophysical parameters from relational databases to develop three-dimensional geologic "block diagrams" for seismic/material-properties models that are used to calibrate seismic sensors. The overall scientific objectives are to: 1) define procedures for rapid landform discrimination from remotely sensed imagery; 2) use these data to infer the geologic and material properties of the landforms; 3) produce a GIS-based conceptual geologic model to define three-dimensional seismic property distribution based on the inferred geologic properties; and 4) develop a working prototype model for site tests in areas where the geology is already known and remotely sensed data are available to evaluate the geologic and geophysical data output. This project has just begun and this poster discusses the project status and future plans.

The study area at Bald Head Island, NC displays complex interactions between anthropogenic activities and natural processes. Quantification of short-term spatial change in this dynamic environment is crucial for sustainable coastal management. A GIS-based, nested grid model of topography was created at resolutions: 20 m--entire area, 5 m--beach, and 1 m--active areas. Analysis at the island's south beach before and after nourishment exemplifies the methodology. Annual LIDAR data gridded at 5 m document pre-nourishment shoreline evolution. Between the 1997 and 2000 the beach lost 400000 m3 of sand, of which about 15% was transported to the subaerial beach dune, increasing its elevation up to 1 m; the remainder was lost offshore. LIDAR data from 1997 define a wide, convex beach in the west and concave with a steep scarp in the east. Intense erosion gradually changed the shape of the entire beach to concave with a scarp. In 2000, the dune at the east end eroded completely, changing the beach shape to uniform low slope. The beach was nourished in 2001, substantially changing its morphology. Based on RTK-GPS Dec-2001 data, beach shape was reversed compared to 1997, with a concave/scarp in the west and a wide, low-slope in the east section. The 2002 data indicate that the intense erosion observed before nourishment continued in the west section, where bathymetry changes rapidly from shallow depth to deep navigation channel. The east section was widening, following the natural trend started in 2000 and enhanced by nourishment. The analysis indicates that the beach will likely need repeated nourishment under current conditions. A better understanding of nearshore processes and new nourishment approaches may be necessary to return the beach to self-sustaining dynamic equilibrium.

The fact that tills may form by in situ melting of basal ice has been documented, but the sedimentological properties and how they develop during the melt-out process are not well documented. Their source, the basal ice, is a potential repository of information on the glacier itself, and the process of melt-out may permit interpretation of this past activity from rigorous sedimentological analysis of the melt-out till. However there is still controversy over whether the melt-out process preserves properties of the debris and ice within the resulting deposit, or disrupts and potentially destroys those properties. We present an analysis of a melt-out till in the process of formation and the relationship of its sedimentology to that of its basal ice and debris source at Matanuska Glacier. The sequence was exposed in February 1997 by stream erosion of a morainal hummock near the present margin of the glacier. During the winter, cold temperatures cause ice to sublimate and sediments to dry, and thus properties of both the ice and deposit were exceptionally well exposed. The ice source was the debris-rich stratified facies of the glacier's basal zone. It was buried beneath about 0.5 meter of stratified diamicton derived from it, which in turn was overlain by about 2 meters of stratified sediments deposited by sediment gravity flows and thin flows of meltwater originating at the active ice margin. Debris strata in the ice extended uninterrupted into the diamicton. Properties of these strata, including their texture and the delicate features of aggregates and grains, were unaltered in the diamicton, except for the strata being thinner due to loss of the ice on melting ( approximately 55 cm of basal ice reduced to approximately 20 cm). Pebble orientations in the ice were also mimicked in the diamicton except for the long axes having a lower angle of dip. Other sedimentary features of the basal debris and ice were also preserved in the diamicton. A melt-out till sequence observed at Skaftafjellsjokull, Iceland in March 2001 compares in terms of process and property to that at the Matanuska. Our study shows that slow melting of debris-rich basal ice can produce a stratified diamicton that preserves basal zone properties with little disruption to the original ice and debris characteristics.

The direction and amount of movement of glacial boulders were measured for 66 days near the terminus of the glacier in May-July 2001. Near the terminus, ice flows generally towards the northwest ( approximately 250 degrees to 310 degrees ; mean = 283.5 degrees ). Daily measurements indicate that boulders moved 181 to 870 cm total (mean = 405.0 cm) towards the southwest (188.4 degrees to 212.6 degrees ; mean = 198.5 degrees ). The azimuth of incoming solar radiation at the glacier during May-July ranges from the southeast to southwest (161 degrees to 210 degrees ; mean = 186 degrees ; Lloyd 2000). Azimuth of boulder movement is skewed to the west in response to increased intensity of solar radiation during the afternoon. The ice surface surrounding the studied boulders slopes downhill (mean gradient = 4.6%) towards the northwest (278 degrees ). However, boulders moved to the southwest up or down-slope (6.1% to -5.2 %). The variance in slope oblique to the ice surface slope is attributed to small-scale topographical changes, i.e. drainage networks that trend in the same direction. Our measurements document a two-phase cycle of boulder movement: (1) prolonged episodes of reduced movement (0 to 10 cm/day), and (2) rapid episodes of accelerated movement (8 to 210 cm/day). Boulders experienced 2 to 9 cycles (mean = 6.8) during the study period. Although we have not performed rigorous analyses, boulders >5 cm tall and 20 cm long appear to insulate the underlying ice from incoming solar radiation, reducing the rate of ablation beneath the boulder compared to the surrounding ice, which is covered by a thin sediment layer (<1.0 cm thick). Sediment cover thickness <1.0 cm conducts solar radiation increasing ablation (Ostrem, 1959). Thus, a pedestal of ice (mode of transportation) forms beneath the boulder due to a difference in ablation rates between the ice surrounding and beneath the boulder. Collectively, these observations indicate that boulders were transported nearly perpendicular ( approximately 85 degrees difference) to ice flow in response to ablation via incoming solar radiation. Glacially transported sediments have been only previously documented moving in the direction of ice flow.

Verification and parameterization of a one-dimensional model using laboratory experiments AN - 18859223; 5565868 AB - Three controlled cold room experiments were conducted to verify and parameterize a one-dimensional (1-D) model that simulates the isotopic composition of meltwater exiting the base of a snowpack. In the model, snow melts at the surface at a constant rate, and water percolates down the column while exchanging isotopically with ice. The effective rate of isotopic exchange and hence the isotopic composition of the melt at a given time is determined by the exchange rate constant k sub(r), the height of the original snowpack, the percolation velocity u*, and the liquid to ice ratio in the exchange system. The experiments were designed to have different effective rates of exchange by varying the height of the snow column and the melt rate. Fitting the model to each of the experiments yielded k sub(r) values that fall in a narrow range, 0.14 to 0.17 hr super(-1), confirming that k sub(r) is an intrinsic rate constant for isotopic exchange. Knowing this value is important for developing future models, in which more complicated hydrological conditions are considered.

AN - 72127794; 12323394 AB - Staurosporine-induced apoptosis was associated with a 20% cellular survival rate in primary rat forebrain cultures. Treatment with the NR2B subunit-selective NMDA receptor antagonist conantokin-G (0.1-1 microM) increased the survival rate up to 78%. No protection was provided by the nonselective NMDA receptor antagonist dizocilpine (0.01-10 microM) but 34-64% cellular survival was provided by ifenprodil (0.01-10 microM), another NR2B subunit-selective antagonist. These results suggest a novel anti-apoptotic mechanism linked to the NR2B receptor subunit. Copyright 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

II. Optimization of the assay for murine antibodies AN - 18482382; 5441018 AB - An improved high throughput assay for measuring murine antibodies to squalene (SQE) is described. The assay is highly reproducible and sensitive and can detect 80 ng/ml of antibody to SQE. The assay, an ELISA, is similar to our previously described assay in which plates containing PVDF membranes were used [J. Immunol. Methods 245 (2000) 1]. The PVDF plates worked well for detection of murine monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to SQE, but substantial PVDF plate variation was observed, resulting in significant loss of signal and reproducibility between different lots of plates. In the new assay, the PVDF plates were replaced with Costar round bottom 96-well sterile tissue culture plates. These latter plates, which are not normally used for ELISA assay, gave high absorbances for monoclonal antibodies and anti-SQE serum binding to SQE and low absorbances for solvent-treated wells. Other commercially available polystyrene ELISA plates were unsuitable, in that either the background was high or the absorbance for antibodies binding to SQE was low, or both. This change in plate from PVDF to polystyrene allowed the use of an ELISA plate washer, which dramatically increased the throughput rate over the hand-washed PVDF plates. The improved assay also replaced fetal bovine serum (FBS), which contained SQE in lipoproteins, with fatty acid-free bovine serum albumin (BSA) as the blocker/diluent. Fifteen nanomoles of SQE were selected as the optimal amount of SQE to add to the wells. The binding of monoclonal antibodies and anti-SQE serum was dependent upon both the amount of antibody added to the wells and the amount of SQE added to the wells. Antibody concentration curves were hyperbolic in shape, as seen with most other antibodies. Antibody binding first increased with SQE amount and then reached a plateau around 10 nmol of SQE/well. At high SQE amounts (>75 nmol/well), antibody binding decreased with the amount of SQE added. Using super(3)H-SQE, the amount of SQE bound to the wells increased linearly, up to 50 nmol of SQE added. Approximately 90% of the added SQE bound to the well. When amounts greater than 100 nmol of SQE were added, the amount of SQE bound to the wells was greatly reduced to approximately 5-10% of the added SQE. The assay was highly reproducible both from lot to lot of plates and from experiment to experiment.

AN - 72153307; 12363140 AB - At the direction of the Army Surgeon General, the Army behavioral health consultants in psychiatry, psychology, and social work assembled in Washington, DC immediately after the September 11, 2001 attack to plan and implement a proactive behavioral health response to the Pentagon attack. The goal was to minimize the short- and long-term adverse behavioral health and related medical effects predicted to emerge based on past U.S. mass casualty scenarios. This article summarizes the goals, methods, and rationale used to develop the plan, as well as the key elements of the behavioral health intervention developed in response to the attack.

AN - 72097692; 12231039 AB - Recent years have seen a downward shift in the most common disease stage at diagnosis and in the age of patients diagnosed with prostate cancer. Although younger men with clinically localized disease are generally offered radiotherapy or radical prostatectomy, such treatment does not always produce a cure. Adjuvant hormonal therapy (medical or surgical castration) has been shown to extend progression-free survival in both the radiotherapy and surgical settings, and overall survival benefits have also been demonstrated in some studies. However, castration is associated with sexual dysfunction that may be unacceptable, particularly among younger patients. The ongoing bicalutamide (Casodex; AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals, Wilmington, DE) Early Prostate Cancer program is evaluating the efficacy and tolerability of bicalutamide 150 mg as immediate therapy, either alone or as an adjuvant to therapy of curative intent, in patients with localized or locally advanced prostate cancer. This is the largest clinical trial program in prostate cancer treatment to date, comprising 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies with a total of 8113 patients. At median follow-up period of 3 years and after 922 progression events, the bicalutamide group had a significant reduction of 42% in the risk of objective progression compared with patients who received placebo plus standard care. The risk of prostate-specific antigen progression was also significantly reduced by 59%. As expected, gynecomastia and breast pain were the most frequently reported side effects of bicalutamide therapy. A longer follow-up period will determine whether the reduced risk of progression will translate into cause-specific and overall survival benefit for these patients.

AN - 72078346; 12226014 AB - Little is known about lung injury caused by fludarabine therapy. To establish a case definition, to describe management, and to identify risk factors for fludarabine-related pulmonary toxicity. Case-control study. Tertiary-care US Army teaching hospital. Individuals treated with fludarabine at our institution between January 1989 and June 2000. Cases of fludarabine-related pulmonary toxicity were defined as follows: dyspnea, fever, hypoxemia, and radiographic infiltrates seen in a patient treated with fludarabine; cases were excluded if there was evidence of pulmonary infection or progression of underlying lymphoproliferative disease affecting the lungs. For each case, demographic data, medical history, radiographic information, available bronchoscopy and pathology data, and details of treatment were reviewed. Cases were compared with fludarabine-treated control subjects to identify potential risk factors. Comparisons were made with regard to age, gender, history of underlying lung disease, lymphoproliferative diagnosis, prior chemotherapy, fludarabine treatment regimen, and pretreatment chest radiograph. During the study period, 105 patients were treated with fludarabine. The incidence of fludarabine-related pulmonary toxicity using our definition was 8.6% (95% confidence interval [CI], 3.2 to 13.9%). One patient died before this entity was suspected; the remainder of the patients underwent bronchoscopy to exclude infection. Patients were treated with corticosteroids with subjective and objective benefits. One patient later died of apparent infection during steroid therapy. One patient was retreated with fludarabine and symptoms of lung toxicity developed again. Patients (n = 9) were similar to control subjects (n = 96) with respect to age, gender, history of underlying lung disease, previous chemotherapy, and fludarabine regimen. Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia were 13.3 (95% CI, 1.6 to 300.6) times more likely to have toxicity develop than patients treated with fludarabine for other diagnoses. There was a trend toward an increased incidence in patients with interstitial infiltrates apparent on prefludarabine chest radiographs. A variety of lung conditions arise in patients treated with fludarabine; however, this agent seems to cause direct pulmonary toxicity. After performing an appropriate evaluation to exclude infection, corticosteroids are an effective therapy. The relative frequency of this condition and potential for mortality underscore the need for increased clinician awareness of fludarabine-related pulmonary toxicity and its risk factors.

An important part of the prevention of such a failure is maintaining the ability to control the release of water after the earthquake. For most earthen dams, and some concrete dams, the release of water is controlled through a reinforced concrete intake tower. The functional survival of such towers has been the main concern of a multi-year research effort sponsored by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). Most intake towers in the current USACE inventory are lightly reinforced. The functional survival of such lightly reinforced structures is thus the main concern of this research effort. The ultimate objective of this research work is the development of analysis procedures for seismic evaluation of these structures. This paper presents some of the results of this effort.

Understanding these interactions provides an information base upon which to evaluate the water quality benefits associated with operational management alternatives. Since experiments involving changes to existing reservoir operation are difficult to implement, water quality models offer a reasonable experimental alternative. We compared selected physical, hydrologic, and operational characteristics of U. S. Army Corps of Engineers reservoirs and subsequently identified and characterized thirteen operational/morphometric groupings that may be useful in future modeling experiments.

Application Strategy and Herbicide Residues AN - 18608409; 5473287 AB - The herbicide fluridone is being used in northern lakes and reservoirs to control the exotic species Eurasian watermilfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum L.). Since quantitative information linking changes in plant communities following fluridone applications is limited, particularly with respect to water residue records, a study was conducted to investigate the effect of low-dose treatments on the submersed plant communities in four Michigan lakes. The overall study objective was to determine whether plant species diversity and frequency of occurrence were affected by low-dose fluridone applications in the year of treatment. The primary objective of this portion of the overall study was to provide an application strategy that would maintain a threshold dose of fluridone, 5 mu g times L super(-1) declining to 2 mu g times L super(-1), in the treated lakes to selectively control Eurasian watermilfoil. Study lakes were 55 to 220 ha in size and contained an average of nine species of submersed plants. Big Crooked, Camp, Lobdell, and Wolverine lakes were treated in mid-May 1997 with the formulation Sonar registered AS, to yield an initial concentration of 5 mu g times L super(-1) fluridone in the upper 3.05 m of each lake. A sequential application of Sonar registered AS was conducted on each lake at 16 to 21 days after initial treatment (DAIT), intended to re-establish a fluridone concentration of 5 mu g times L super(-1) in the upper 3.05 m of each lake. Bass, Big Seven, Clear, and Heron lakes received no fluridone applications and served as untreated reference sites. Water residue samples were collected at prescribed intervals on each fluridone-treated lake from pretreatment up to 81 DAIT. Samples were collected from six littoral stations and from two deep locations throughout each lake, and temperature profiles were measured at the deep stations.

Akt (PKB), a pivotal protein kinase which can block apoptosis and promotes cell survival, was identified to be chiefly down-regulated in a dose-dependent manner following CEES treatment. Functional analysis showed that the attendant Akt activity was simultaneously reduced. PDK1, an upstream effector of Akt, was also down-regulated following CEES exposure, but two other upstream effectors of Akt, PI3-K and PDK2, remained unchanged. The phosphorylation of Akt at Ser super(473) and Thr super(308) was significantly decreased following CEES treatment, reflecting the suppressed kinase activity of both PDK1 and PDK2. Concurrently, the anti-apoptotic genes, Bcl family, were down-regulated, in sharp contrast to the striking up-regulation of some death executioner genes, caspase 3, 6, and 8. Based on these findings, a model of CEES-induced apoptosis was established. These results suggest that CEES attacked the Akt pathway, directly or indirectly, by inhibiting Akt transcription, translation, and post-translation modification. Taken together, upon exposure to CEES, apoptosis was induced in Jurkat cells via the down-regulation of the survival factors that normally prevent the activation of the death executioner genes, the caspases.

The model simulates the motion of each individual ice floe, the interaction between adjacent floes, the interaction of the floes with the walls and boom, and the water drag applied to the floes on the underside of the ice accumulation. The DEM simulations were compared with a parallel set of physical model tests using natural ice. The DEM successfully reproduced the observed magnitude and distribution of the forces on the boom and the channel sides as the boom retained a surge of drifting ice. Variations in channel side roughness produced similar changes in the division of forces between the boom and sidewalls in the simulations and model tests. Finally, the load distribution between the boom and the channel sides and the effect of channel side roughness in the context of granular ice-jam theory were analyzed.

River water was sampled at 35 sites in the summer and fall of 1998 and the spring of 1999 in an attempt to distinguish spatial and temporal changes in geochemical signatures related to land use and bedrock geology. We coupled super(87)Sr/ super(86)Sr values and major element concentrations from river water to quantify the relationship between bedrock geology and riverine geochemistry. The results in our study show that strontium isotopes of tributary waters reflect their catchment bedrock lithology. Our results also suggest that major cations in the Connecticut River water are dominated by carbonate weathering despite the limited presence of calcareous metasedimentary rocks ( similar to 10% of watershed bedrock). In addition, the relative contribution of carbonate to silicate weathering increases downriver as a result of input from tributaries draining Paleozoic carbonate-bearing rocks. In contrast, nitrate concentrations and nitrogen isotopic ratios of nitrate in water were highly variable. Nitrate concentrations were highest for tributaries draining developed and agricultural sites, suggesting anthropogenic inputs. However, it was difficult to determine the source of nitrate because of the wide scatter in the nitrogen isotopic data, which for the most part did not correlate with land use. The only systematic trends in nitrogen isotopic values are found in waters collected in the summer. However, these data show that delta super(15)N values of nitrate from agricultural sites were lower than delta super(15)N values of nitrate from forested sites, a result that is inconsistent with previous studies. Our study suggests that strontium isotopes provide a better biomarker for tracking Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) than nitrogen isotopes because unlike super(15)N/ super(14)N ratios, super(87)Sr/ super(86)Sr ratios are both predictable and seasonally constant in water.

However, little information exists on the geographic genetic structure of S. alterniflora, such as the relatedness of populations within a region and the genetic similarity of imported populations to native populations. A high-resolution tool for assessing genetic similarity and diversity of S. alterniflora populations would be an important step toward understanding these relationships. We optimized a bead beater extraction and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) protocol for S. alterniflora and evaluated its usefulness in distinguishing plants from adjacent marshes in addition to marshes planted with imported stock. Two primer sets were used in AFLP analysis of four to five plants from each of seven populations. These primer sets generated 372 scoreable loci, of which 235 were polymorphic. High genetic diversity was observed in all populations studied, with nucleotide diversities ranging from 0.0363 to 0.0651. Results from analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) in this exploratory analysis indicated that intrapopulation genetic diversity was high (59.8% of total variation). The contribution of regional differences was weak. Geographical distances between planting stock origin and native marshes did not correlate with genetic diversity. This study demonstrated the procedure could be used to rapidly and reproducibly generate high-resolution genetic profiles of individual plants. The data produced with this method will be used to further our understanding of the structure of S. alterniflora communities and their function in salt marshes.

Alkalinity, acidity, pH, calcium, and magnesium were significantly altered by the alkaline leachate that seeped from the toe of the 95 hectare slag dump. These leachates increased the mean pH of the receiving stream from 7.7 to 9.3, and the maximum pH measured was 11.1.

AN - 72034773; 12077146 AB - Chemokine receptors belong to the superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors, which regulate the trafficking and activation of leukocytes, and operate as coreceptors in the entry of HIV-1. To investigate the early steps in the signal transmission from the chemokine-binding site to the G protein-coupling region we engineered metal ion-binding sites at putative extracellular sites in the chemokine receptor CXCR1. We introduced histidines into sites located in the second and third putative extracellular loops of CXCR1, creating single, double, and triple mutant receptors: R199H, R203H, D265H, R199H/R203H, R199H/D265H, R203H/D265H, R203H/H207Q, and R199H/R203H/D265H. Cells expressing the double mutants R199H/D265H and R203H/D265H and the triple mutant R199H/R203H/D265H failed to trigger interleukin 8-dependent calcium responses. Interestingly, calcium responses mediated by the single mutant R203H and the double mutants R199H/R203H and R203H/H207Q were blocked by Zn(II), indicating the creation of a functional metal ion-binding site. On the other hand, cells expressing all single, double, or triple histidine-substituted CXCR1 demonstrated high affinity binding to interleukin 8 in the presence and absence of metal ions. These findings indicate that occupation of the engineered metal-binding site uncouples the chemokine-binding site from the activation mechanism in CXCR1. Most importantly, we identify for the first time elements of an early signal transduction switch of chemokine receptors before the activation of cytoplasmic G proteins.

AN - 72019426; 12097317 AB - Two candidate human orthologs of Escherichia coli MutM/Nei were recently identified in the human genome database, and one of these, NEH1, was characterized earlier (Hazra, T. K., Izumi, T., Boldogh, I., Imhoff, B., Kow, Y. W., Jaruga, P., and Dizdaroglu, M. (2002) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 99, 3523-3528). Here we report characterization of the second protein, originally named NEH2 and now renamed NEIL2 (Nei-like). The 37-kDa wild-type NEIL2 expressed in and purified from E. coli has DNA glycosylase/AP lyase activity, primarily for excising oxidative products of cytosine, with highest activity for 5-hydroxyuracil, one of the most abundant and mutagenic lesions induced by reactive oxygen species, and with lower activity for 5,6-dihydrouracil and 5-hydroxycytosine. It has negligible or undetectable activity with 8-oxoguanine, thymine glycol, 2-hydroxyadenine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine. NEIL2 is similar to NEIL1 in having N-terminal Pro as the active site. However, unlike NEIL1, its expression was independent of the cell cycle stage in fibroblasts, and its highest expression was observed in the testes and skeletal muscle. Despite the absence of a putative nuclear localization signal, NEIL2 was predominantly localized in the nucleus. These results suggest that NEIL2 is involved in global genome repair mainly for removing oxidative products of cytosine.

To get a better handle on the mechanistics details of this TiO sub(2)-assisted photodegradation of dyes with visible radiation, the process was examined by UV-visible spectroscopy, high-performance liquid chromatography, silica gel thin-layer chromatography, and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometric techniques to separate and identify the N-de-ethylated intermediate products during the photodegradation of N,N,N,N-tetraethylsulforhodamine-B (SRB) in the absence and presence of iodide ions. Five intermediates, namely, N,N-diethyl-N'-ethyl-sulforhodamine, N,N-diethylsulforhodamine, N-ethyl-N'-ethylsulforhodamine, N-ethylsulforhodamine, and sulforhodamine were thus identified. They correspond to intermediate products having a different number of N-ethyl groups, which are removed sequentially from the SRB molecule. The reaction process was accompanied by the oxidation of I super(-) to I super(-) sub(3) in the presence of I super(-) ions. Formation of radicals was assessed by spintrap electron spin resonance spectrometry. The experimental results provided the basis for a more detailed description of the reaction mechanism(s).

AN - 71944495; 12135602 AB - Sulfur mustard (2,2(')-dichloroethyl sulfide) is a chemical warfare agent that causes incapacitating skin blisters in humans 12-24h post-exposure following a variable asymptomatic phase. Recent reports demonstrate that inflammation plays a vital role in sulfur mustard toxicity. One of the key biochemical pathways involved in inflammation is the arachidonic acid cascade. In this report, we demonstrate that arachidonic acid is released in response to sulfur mustard and investigate the mechanisms of arachidonic acid release. Exposure to sulfur mustard caused a 5- to 8-fold increase in arachidonic acid release from human keratinocytes that had been radiolabeled with arachidonic acid. Maximal arachidonic acid release occurred between 12 and 24h. Several enzymatic pathways can lead to arachidonic acid release. Treatment with 2.0% (v/v) ethanol, an inhibitor of phospholipase D, decreased sulfur mustard-induced arachidonic acid release 40+/-7%. Additionally, 100 microM (+/-)-propranolol, an inhibitor of phosphatidic acid phosphohydrolase, blocked sulfur mustard-induced arachidonic acid release by 62+/-3%. These findings suggest that arachidonic acid release is mediated by phospholipase D and phosphatidic acid phosphohydrolase in human keratinocytes following sulfur mustard exposure. Due to the 12-24h delay in arachidonic acid release following sulfur mustard exposure, delayed therapeutic intervention may be possible. Indeed, we found that the addition of 100 microM (+/-)-propranolol up to 18 h after sulfur mustard exposure was still able to block arachidonic acid release by 30+/-3%.

AN - 85358569; pmid-12199393 AB - A constant-effort task was used previously as a potential assessment technique for fatigue. Participants sustained submaximal target effort levels with the tongue and hand against soft air-filled bulbs. For 80% of all trials, pressure decreased exponentially to a positive asymptote. In addition, pressure decreased faster when the muscles were fatigued than when they were rested. This study attempted to replicate the previous findings with new participants and to extend the findings to include surface electromyographic (EMG) data. Pressure and surface EMG signals were collected simultaneously while 10 neurologically normal young adults performed the constant-effort task at 50% of maximum pressure with the tongue and the hand. Eighty-one percent of the pressure data were modeled by a negative exponential equation with a nonzero asymptote. Seventy-three percent of the corresponding EMG data also fit this mathematical model. The pressure signals decayed more slowly than the corresponding EMG signals, particularly for the hand. After participants fatigued the tongue and hand with repeated brief maximal voluntary contractions, the time constants were reduced (rate of decay increased) for the tongue but not the hand. These results corroborate the previous finding that the time constant, determined from an exponential curve-fitting procedure, is a replicable measure. Furthermore, the reduction in the time constant after inducing acute fatigue in the tongue was replicated, although this same relationship was not replicated for the hand. The EMG data suggest that decreases in neuromuscular drive, including increased early adaptation, motor unit derecruitment, and motor unit desynchronization, contributed to the decrease in pressure during the constant-effort task, especially after acute fatigue was induced. These observations support the hypothesis that the task reflects, at least in part, central fatigue processes.

AN - 85257554; pmid-12182216 AB - BACKGROUND: An objective method that accurately quantifies the severity of Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) symptoms is needed to enable more reliable evaluation of altitude acclimatization and testing of potentially beneficial interventions. HYPOTHESIS: Changes in human articulation, as quantified by timed variations in acoustic waveforms of specific spoken words (voice onset time; VOT), are correlated with the severity of AMS. METHODS: Fifteen volunteers were exposed to a simulated altitude of 4300 m (446 mm Hg) in a hypobaric chamber for 48 h. Speech motor control was determined from digitally recorded and analyzed timing patterns of 30 different monosyllabic words characterized as voiced and unvoiced, and as labial, alveolar, or velar. The Environmental Symptoms Questionnaire (ESQ) was used to assess AMS. RESULTS: Significant AMS symptoms occurred after 4 h, peaked at 16 h, and returned toward baseline after 48 h. Labial VOTs were shorter after 4 and 39 h of exposure; velar VOTs were altered only after 4 h; and there were no changes in alveolar VOTs. The duration of vowel sounds was increased after 4 h of exposure and returned to normal thereafter. Only 1 of 15 subjects did not increase vowel time after 4 h of exposure. The 39-h labial (p = 0.009) and velar (p = 0.037) voiced-unvoiced timed separations consonants and the symptoms of AMS were significantly correlated. CONCLUSIONS: Two objective measures of speech production were affected by exposure to 4300 m altitude and correlated with AMS severity. Alterations in speech production may represent an objective measure of AMS and central vulnerability to hypoxia.

AN - 71993326; 12165316 AB - Clostridium botulinum C2 enterotoxin consists of two unlinked proteins designated as C2II, which recognizes a cell-surface glycoprotein and translocates an ADP-ribosyltransferase, C2I, into the cytosol of a targeted cell. Fluorescence-activated cytometry was used to study the cellular interactions of Alexa488-labeled C2I (C2I-A488) and proteolytically activated C2II (C2IIa-A488). The binding of C2IIa-A488 (4 degrees C/10 min) to Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) and African green monkey kidney (Vero) cells yielded a signal/noise ratio of 7:1 and 4:1, respectively. C2I-A488 binding required C2IIa and resulted in a 4:1 (CHO) and 10:1 (Vero) signal/noise ratio that was readily competed by unlabeled C2I. Neither C2I nor C2IIa bound to a CHO line (RK14), lacking the receptor for C2IIa. C2I-A488 did not dock with the heterologous cell-binding component (iota b) of Clostridium perfringens iota toxin, a binary toxin closely related to C2. Pretreatment of wild-type CHO or Vero cells with pronase or papain (37 degrees C/30 min) prevented a cell-associated C2IIa-specific signal. However, CHO and Vero cells pretreated with papain at 25 degrees C had a 1.5- to 2.3-fold increase in C2IIa-specific fluorescence versus untreated cells incubated with C2IIa-A488. Overall, these studies further demonstrated the utility of fluorescence-activated cytometry for studying the binding characteristics of bacterial binary toxins like C2.

AN - 71980505; 12173252 AB - O-Isobutyl S-[2-(diethylamino)ethyl]methylphosphonothioate (VR) is a structural isomer of a more widely known chemical warfare agent O-ethyl S-[2(diisopropylamino)ethyl]methylphosphonothioate (VX). VR has the potential of being used as military threat/sabotage/terrorist agent. The development of a sound medical countermeasure will undoubtedly enhance not only our medical readiness and ability in VR casualty management, but also our defense posture against the deployment of VR in both combat and politically volatile environments. Acute exposure to a lethal dose of VR has been shown to cause cholinergic hyperfunction, incapacitation, seizures, convulsions, cardiorespiratory depression and death. In this study, pharmacological antagonism of VR-induced cardiorespiratory failure and lethality was investigated in guinea pigs chronically instrumented for concurrent recordings of electrocorticogram, diaphragmatic EMG, Lead II ECG, heart rate and neck skeletal muscle EMG. Thirty (30) min prior to intoxication with a 2 x LD50 dose of VR (22.6 micrograms/kg, s.c.), animals were pretreated with pyridostigmine (0.026 mg/kg, i.m.). Immediately after VR intoxication, animals were given pralidoxime chloride (2-PAM; 25 mg/kg, i.m.) and atropine sulfate (2, 8 or 16 mg/kg, i.m.). In animals that displayed seizures and convulsions, diazepam (5 mg/kg, i.m.) was administered 10 min following the onset of epileptiform activities. Responses to pretreatment/therapy modality were evaluated at 24 h post-VR. All animals survived the 2 x LD50 VR challenge. With the exception of an increased heart rate in response to atropine, the myocardial and diaphragmatic (respiratory) activity profiles appeared normal throughout the course of intoxication and recovery. Animals receiving 2 mg/kg atropine all developed fasciculations, seizures, signs of excessive mucoid/salivary secretion, and needed diazepam adjunct therapy. One-half (50%) of the animals receiving 8 mg/kg atropine developed seizure activities and were given diazepam, whereas the other half only showed a brief period of increase in CNS excitability. No fasciculations, seizures or convulsions were noted in animals receiving 16 mg/kg atropine. In summary, although lethality can be prevented with the pretreatment/therapy modality containing 2 mg/kg atropine and diazepam adjunct, a complete CNS and cardiorespiratory recovery from 2 x LD50 of VR requires a minimum of 8 mg/kg atropine.

AN - 71969811; 12151997 AB - Although the use of microorganisms as weapons is as old a practice as war itself, the sense of our collective vulnerability to these agents has seldom been as great. The events of late 2001 demonstrated that the United States is vulnerable to terrorist attack carried out by highly motivated, organized, funded, and trained individuals. It is our collective good fortune that the perpetrator of the anthrax mailings was not bent on destruction of the scale witnessed on September 11, 2001. Because acute care and critical care nurses are on the forefront of community disease surveillance, they must be aware of the signs and symptoms of illness that may indicate that a biological attack has taken place. Many symptoms of infection or intoxication by biological warfare agents (bacterial, viral, and toxic) are nonspecific and flulike in nature, at least early in the disease process. The essential details of the presentation, diagnosis, treatment, and prophylaxis of the biological warfare agents that merit greatest concern are provided, and five biological warfare agents of particular interest are described in detail: anthrax, ricin (castor bean) toxin, smallpox, plague, and tularemia. Recommendations are given for additional Web-based resources to allow further study.

AN - 71922057; 12121927 AB - Initial field malaria prophylaxis trials with azithromycin revealed insufficient efficacy against falciparum malaria to develop azithromycin as a single agent. The objective of this in vitro study was to determine the best drug combination(s) to evaluate for future malaria treatment and prophylaxis field trials. In vitro, azithromycin was tested in combination with chloroquine against 10 representative Plasmodium falciparum isolates. Azithromycin was also assessed in combination with eight additional antimalarial agents against two or three multidrug-resistant P. falciparum isolates. Parasite susceptibility testing was carried out with a modification of the semiautomated microdilution technique. The incubation period was extended from the usual 48 h to 68 h. Fifty percent inhibitory concentrations (IC(50)s) were calculated for each drug alone and for drugs in fixed combinations of their respective IC(50)s (1:1, 3:1, 1:3, 4:1, 1:4, and 5:1). These data were used to calculate fractional inhibitory concentrations and isobolograms. Chloroquine-azithromycin studies revealed a range of activity from additive to synergistic interactions for the eight chloroquine-resistant isolates tested, while an additive response was seen for the two chloroquine-sensitive isolates. Quinine, tafenoquine, and primaquine were additive to synergistic with azithromycin, while dihydroartemisinin was additive with a trend toward antagonism. The remaining interactions appeared to be additive. These results suggest that a chloroquine-azithromycin combination should be evaluated for malaria prophylaxis and that a quinine-azithromycin combination should be evaluated for malaria treatment in areas of drug resistance.

AN - 71886436; 12115091 AB - The recommended treatment for cutaneous leishmaniasis is pentavalent antimony at a dosage of 20 mg/kg/day for 20 days. Some studies conducted in locales in which Leishmania is endemic have suggested that shorter courses of treatment may be as efficacious. We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 10 versus 20 days of sodium stibogluconate (SSG) in United States military personnel who contracted cutaneous leishmaniasis while serving overseas; 19 patients received SSG for 10 days (and placebo for 10 days), and 19 patients received SSG for 20 days. Cure rates were 100% (19 of 19 patients) in the 10-day group and 95% (18 of 19 patients) in the 20-day group. Side effects were more common among patients who received 20 days of therapy. In this group of otherwise healthy young adults, SSG at a dosage of 20 mg/kg/day for 10 days appears to have been therapeutically equivalent and less toxic than the standard 20-day course.

These classifications do not address changes in frequency, length, and appearance of joints in the rock mass as weathering progresses. This account of work on vertical or steeply dipping joints in granitic rocks shows that not only are there statistically significant differences in mean joint spacings and mean trace lengths with increased weathering, but that the physical appearances of joints also changes as weathering progresses. Mean joint spacing is wide in fresh rock, becomes closer in moderately weathered rock, and then becomes progressively wider from moderately weathered rock through highly and completely weathered rock. Mean joint lengths follow a similar but inverse pattern. Mean trace lengths become shorter from fresh to slightly weathered rock, lengthen in moderately weathered rock, then progressively become shorter from moderately weathered rock through highly and completely weathered rock. Furthermore, joint appearance changes with increased weathering. Joints in fresh rock are sharp-edged and typically straight. The edges begin to round in moderately weathered rock, and in highly weathered rock, joint traces become sinuous and discontinuous around mineral grains. In completely weathered rock, the only visible joints are filled with minerals or marked with iron staining. It is proposed that this evolution in joint pattern and appearance results from increased cracking along grain boundaries and thermal expansion of individual mineral grains, and within-grain micro-cracking as weathering proceeds. These factors allow individual mineral grains to "move" into the spaces between joint surfaces, thus obscuring individual joints and making them appear shorter. These apparent changes in joint properties could lead to incorrect rock mass classification and thus, to inappropriate engineering design and costly errors during construction.

A longshore-uniform fine-sand beach, 35 m alongshore, 20 m cross-shore, and 25 cm thick was placed in the facility for these experiments. Two unidirectional, long-crested irregular wave conditions were examined; one resulted in predominantly spilling breakers and one in plunging breakers. Waves and currents, and sediment concentrations were measured at 20 and 16 Hz, respectively, at various longshore and cross-shore locations and throughout the water column. Both currents and sediment concentrations exhibit great temporal and spatial variations in the surf zone. The variation patterns, however, of the longshore current, cross-shore current, and sediment concentration are substantially different. Caution should be exercised when averaging these parameters over time and space. For the two wave cases examined, the temporal variations of longshore current, including those at principal incident-wave frequencies, were relatively small across most of the surf zone. Over 70% of the variations are within approximately + or -60% of the mean value. The wave motion, with a strong peak at principal incident-wave frequencies, dominated the temporal variations of cross-shore current. Temporal variations of suspended sediment concentration under the irregular waves were episodic, characterized by occasional large values induced by suspension events or due to horizontal advection. The variance of the concentration at the peak incident-wave frequency was not significant except very near the bed. Time-averaged longshore-current profiles over the predominantly rippled sand bed were logarithmic in shape below the wave trough. Depth-averaged longshore current (excluding the portion of water column above wave trough) matched well with the current measured at an elevation of 1/3 of the water depth from the bed. Time-averaged cross-shore current profiles were characterized by an onshore mass flux near the surface, and a balancing offshore flow below the wave-trough level (undertow). Sediment concentration decreased very rapidly upward through the water column across most of the surf zone except at the plunging breaker line where relatively homogeneous concentration was measured throughout much of the water column above 4 cm from the bed. Depth-averaged sediment concentration over the range from 1 cm above the bed to the bottom of wave trough roughly equaled the concentration measured at an elevation from the bed equal to 20% of the still-water depth. A reasonable estimate of the time-averaged longshore sediment flux was obtained from the product of time-averaged profiles of longshore current and sediment concentration. Accurate estimates of time-averaged cross-shore sediment flux, however, could not be obtained from the product of time-averaged current and concentration.

The study revealed that anchor ice is initiated by frazil ice accumulation on bed gravel from half a gravel diameter below the crown level of the gravel. No in-situ ice growth within the frazil accumulation or downward growth towards the bed was observed. During the initial stage of growth anchor ice grew in the forms of tails, scales, or balls, depending on the flow velocity and Froude number. During the final stage of growth, when the gravel bed was covered by ice, the growth rate increased with the heat loss rate and Froude number, and inversely proportional to the flow depth. The overall hydraulic resistance of anchor ice was smaller for smaller bed gravel sizes and decreases with the increase in flow rate and flow depth. The rate of increase of the gross Manning's resistance coefficient decreases with the increase in Reynolds number.

The ability of super(1)H NMR to determine Tm was demonstrated and the values obtained were in general agreement with those observed with DSC and IR. However, the temperature range of the transition observed by NMR was significantly broader than that observed with either DSC or IR. The effect of deuterium oxide on Tm was studied by comparing results obtained in water and deuterium oxide with DSC and IR. The results showed no significant difference in Tm or temperature range of transition determined in these solvents.

Methods: Eight women distance runners were studied during a 30-km treadmill run ( similar to 70% VO sub(2max)) in a warm (30 degree C T sub(db)) and a cool (14 degree C T sub(db)) environment. Total sweat loss (TSL) was determined from changes in body mass corrected for fluid intake (FI), urine losses (UL), clothing (trapped sweat, TS), CO sub(2)-O sub(2) exchange (metabolic mass loss, MML), and respiratory water loss (RWL). TSL was compared with four estimates of sweat losses (often employed in the field) from body mass changes corrected for: a) FI only (F-1); b) FI and TS (F-2); c) FI and UL (F-3); or d) FI, TS, and UL (F-4). Two prediction equations were used also for comparison to TSL values. Results: In the warm environment, F-1, F-3, and F-4 accurately estimated (0.2-6.9%; P > 0.05) TSL, whereas F-2 produced a large error (15.3%; P < 0.05). In the cool environment, all four estimates produced large errors (14-41%; P < 0.05). Both prediction equations markedly underestimated (20-22%) TSL in the warm environment and underestimated (41%) or overestimated (20%) TSL in the cool environment. Conclusion: TSL can be accurately estimated from changes in body mass using F-1, F-3, or F-4 methods in hot environments; however, none of the methods accurately estimated actual TSL values in a cool environment. Neither prediction equation provided accurate estimates of TSL in warm or cool conditions for women runners. These results illustrate the difficulty of accurately estimating and predicting sweat losses in the field.

These are the roughness lengths for wind speed (z 0), temperature (z T ), and humidity (z Q ) and the stratification corrections for the wind speed and scalar profiles q m and q h , respectively. Because over snow and ice the atmospheric surface layer is often stably stratified, the discussion here focuses first on which of the many suggested q m and q h functions to use over snow and ice. On the basis of four profile metrics-the critical Richardson number, the Deacon numbers for wind speed and temperature, and the turbulent Prandtl number-the manuscript recommends the Holtslag and de Bruin q m and q h functions because these have the best properties in very stable stratification. Next, a reanalysis of five previously published datasets confirms the validity of a parameterization for z T /z 0 as a function of the roughness Reynolds number (R [lowast]) that the author reported in 1987. The z T /z 0 data analyzed here and that parameterization are compatible for R [lowast] values between 10-4 and 100, which span the range from aerodynamically smooth through aerodynamically rough flow. Discussion of a z 0 parameterization is deffered and an insufficiency of data for evaluating z Q is reported, although some z Q data is presented.

Interface temperatures averaged 7.5 'C higher than air temperatures and varied in a manner that was more complex, and on a spatial scale more than 100 times smaller, than the air temperature. Within the basin, two distinct thermal regimes could be identified, with the division at the boundary between coastal and uplands provinces. When each station was classified into one of three snow exposure classes (exposed, intermediate, or sheltered ), accounting for variations in snow depth and thermal properties, 87% of the variation in the average interface temperature could be predicted from air temperature. Individual station interface temperature records were fit using a beta curve that captured the slow decrease in autumn and the rapid rise in spring. Beta curves were specified by three parameters ( a, b, and g ) that could be predicted if province and snow exposure class were known. A model based on the beta curves was developed and applied over the basin to predict interface temperatures in both time and space. Tests of the model against data from within the domain and from arctic Alaskan locations outside the domain suggest an accuracy of c2 'C when simulating average winter interface temperatures, and c3 'C when simulating daily interface temperatures.

After a blood meal, parous mosquitoes generally do not survive until spring and gonotrophic dissociation occurs in only a small percentage of the population. To investigate vertical transmission as a means of viral survival during interepizootics, we intrathoracically inoculated Cx. pipiens and Aedes albopictus (Skuse) with WN virus and subsequently tested their F1 progeny for the presence of virus. Among the Cx. pipiens , we recovered virus from two of 1,417 adult progeny that had been reared at 18 'C for a minimal filial infection rate (MFIR) of -1.4 /1,000 and four of 1,873 adult progeny reared at 26 'C (MFIR = 2.1 /1,000). The mean titer of the positive pools was 105.6 plaque-forming units (PFU)/ml (=105.9 PFU/mosquito for positive mosquitoes) of virus. Overall, the MFIR was -1.8/1,000 for Cx. pipiens. Although reports indicate that Ae. albopictus vertically transmit various viruses in the Japanese encephalitis virus complex, we did not detect WN virus in any of > 13,000 F1 progeny of WN virus-inoculated specimens. Female Cx. pipiens that are vertically infected during the late summer season and then survive the winter could serve as a source of WN virus to initiate an infection cycle the following spring.

Anesthetized rats received either a 20% total body surface area (TBSA) full thickness scald or a sham burn. After a 5 h recovery period, half of the animals in the burn or sham burn groups were exposed to cooled western bark (fir and pine) smoke for 16.25 min. The remaining rats in each group breathed room air. At 1, 12, 24, 48 and 96 h after exposure to the smoke, five rats from each of the four groups were euthanatized and lungs were lavaged by infusing three 5 ml aliquots of normal saline for evaluation of airway cellular content and lung wet to dry weight ratios to estimate lung water content. A second series of five rats/group per time point were euthanatized at the above times and lung, liver, kidney and heart were removed for evaluation of tissue antioxidant enzyme activities and for thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) concentrations, as well as for lung histology. Smoke exposure resulted in average plasma carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) of 19 plus or minus 2% in the two smoke exposed groups and produced areas of erosion of the tracheal surface, resulting in loss of epithelium and exposed basement membrane. Lung water content was not significantly different among the four groups during the 96-h experimental period. Lung TBARS levels were 2-3-fold higher at 12 h in smoke exposed rats compared with controls. These levels peaked at 24 h and remained significantly elevated at 48 h compared to controls. TBARS were also elevated in liver, but not in heart or kidney in response to burn or combined injury. Minor effects on lung antioxidant enzyme activities were observed after smoke inhalation. These data suggest that smoke inhalation, independent of burn injury, induces an oxidant stress that persists for at least the first 48 h after smoke exposure.
