T1  - The ICF as a framework for national data: the introduction of ICF into Australian data dictionaries.
AN  - 85377886; pmid-12959342
AB  - A country's data may influence and inform its policy and services, if suitably designed. This paper describes how two related and interacting activities--work on disability concepts and classification as well as the preparation of national data dictionaries--have been carried out in Australia, with this purpose.Three key ingredients were combined. A broadly based advisory group was established to ensure the use of disability concepts that are meaningful not only to policy makers but also to the Australian community. This group advised on two 'twin' activities: participation in the revision of the key international classification for disability, and specification of data elements for a national data dictionary according to international standards.National data elements were developed, based on the Beta-2 draft ICIDH-2, and accepted for use in Australian national data dictionaries on a trial basis.The purpose and process have been accepted as valuable, and there is interested anticipation of new Australian standard data elements based on the ICF.

T1  - Qualitative Stability and Ambiguity in Model Ecosystems
AN  - 18873591; 5718763
AB  - Qualitative analysis of stability in model ecosystems has previously been limited to determining whether a community matrix is sign stable or not with little analytical means to assess the impact of complexity on system stability. Systems are seen as either unconditionally or conditionally stable with little distinction and therefore much ambiguity in the likelihood of stability. First, we reexamine Hurwitz's principal theorem for stability and propose two "Hurwitz criteria" that address different aspects of instability: positive feedback and insufficient lower-level feedback. Second, we derive two qualitative metrics based on these criteria: weighted feedback (wF sub(n)) and weighted determinants (w Delta sub(n)). Third, we test the utility of these qualitative metrics through quantitative simulations in a random and evenly distributed parameter space in models of various sizes and complexities. Taken together they provide a practical means to assess the relative degree to which ambiguity has entered into calculations of stability as a result of system structure and complexity. From these metrics we identify two classes of models that may have significant relevance to system research and management. This work helps to resolve some of the impasse between theoretical and empirical discussions on the complexity and stability of natural communities.

T1  - Show me the substrates: modulation of host cell function by type IV secretion systems
AN  - 18860207; 5698878
AB  - Evidence for the involvement of type IV protein secretion systems in bacterial virulence is accumulating. Many of the substrate proteins secreted by type IV systems either hijack or interfere with specific host cell pathways. These substrates can be injected directly into host cells via the type IV apparatus or are secreted by the type IV machinery in a state that allows them to gain access to cellular targets without the further assistance of the type IV system. Arguably, the protein substrates of most type IV secretion systems remain undiscovered. Here, we review the activities of known type IV substrates and discuss the putative roles of unidentified substrates.

T1  - Nerve Cell Damage in Mammalian Brain After Exposure to Microwaves from GSM Mobile Phones
AN  - 14664557; 10645635
AB  - Transverse electromagnetic transmission line chambers were used to expose rats to radio-frequency electromagnetic fields to examine possible nerve cell damage. The rats were exposed for 2 h to Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) mobile phone electromagnetic fields of different strengths. The exposed animals exhibited several albumin-positive foci around the finer blood vessels in white and gray matter, showing that the albumin had spread in the tissue between the cell bodies and surrounded neurons. Scattered neurons not associated with albumin leakage between the neurons were also positive. The cortex as well as the hippocampus and the basal ganglia in the brains of exposed rats contained damaged neurons. A significant positive relation was noted between electomagnetic field dosage and the number of dark neurons.

T1  - Association Between Arsenic Exposure from a Coal-Burning Power Plant and Urinary Arsenic Concentrations in Prievidza District, Slovakia
AN  - 14663526; 10645637
AB  - Spot urine samples were collected from subjects living in the vicinity of a coal-fired power plant with high arsenic emission in the Prievidza District, Slovenia, and the association between environmental As exposure and urinary As concentrations was explored. Arsenic speciation in the urine samples was performed as metabolic indices to measure the stepwise methylation capacity. Arsenic concentrations were also measured in soil and house dust collected from a random subsample of the study subjects' households. A significant, but weak, association was discerned between As in soil and urinary total As. In subjects living in the vicinity of the plant, urinary total As concentrations were significantly higher than controls, based on elevated concentrations of the methylated As species. The consumption of homegrown fruits and vegetables was associated with significantly elevated monomethylarsonic acid.

AN  - 14661134; 10645636
AB  - The crystal structure of human estrogen sulfotransferase (hEST) in complex with the sulfuryl donor product, 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate, and with the effective inhibitor, 4,4'-OH-3,5,3',5'-tetrachlorobiphenyl, was determined. Results showed that 4,4'-OH-3,5,3',5'-tetrachlorobiphenyl bound at the 17 beta -estradiol binding position in the active site, which suggested competitive inhibition. The structure of hEST in the presence of the donor product and the inhibitor provided atomic detail of a hydroxylated PCB compound mimicking hormone binding to protein molecules.

T1  - Interrelationships Between the Precautionary Principle, Prediction Strategies, and Sustainable Use of the Planet
AN  - 14658126; 10645634
AB  - The relationships between the reworked concept of humans in the environment and prevention strategies are examined. Considered are the precautionary principle, which puts into policy a determination to prevent environmental damage before it occurs, and natural capitalism and industrial ecology, which advocate going beyond prevention of environmental damage to a goal of optimizing environmental systems. Several tools have been developed to implement these new paradigms, including both interdisciplinary and large-scale research combined with the traditional tools used in risk assessment. It is argued that thresholds and biologic monitoring are useful tools, especially when used in conjunction with the precautionary principle, but their use requires a clear statement of what human society is attempting to optimize.

T1  - The Australian Intervention Randomized Control of Rate in Atrial Fibrillation Trial (AIRCRAFT).
AN  - 73278328; 12767649
AB  - The Australian Intervention Randomized Control of Rate in Atrial Fibrillation Trial was a multicenter trial of atrioventricular junction ablation and pacing (AVJAP) compared with pharmacologic ventricular rate control (medication [MED]) in patients with mild to moderately symptomatic permanent atrial fibrillation (AF). There have been very few prospective randomized trials, undertaken in highly symptomatic patients, comparing AVJAP with pharmacologic methods of ventricular rate control for patients with permanent AF.
          There were 99 patients (70 men, mean age 68 +/- 8.6 years) at five centers. Forty-nine patients were randomized to AVJAP while 50 patients were randomized to pharmacologic control. The primary end point was cardiac function measured by echocardiography and exercise tolerance. The secondary end points were ventricular rate control, evaluated by 24-h ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring, and quality of life. Data were collected at randomization and then at one month, six months, and 12 months post-randomization.
          At 12 months follow-up there was no significant difference in left ventricular ejection fraction (AVJAP: 54 +/- 17%; MED: 61 +/- 13% [p = ns]) or exercise duration on treadmill testing (AVJAP: 4.1 +/- 2 min; MED: 4.6 +/- 2 min [p = ns]); however, the peak ventricular rate was lower in the AVJAP group during exercise (112 +/- 17 beats/min vs. 153 +/- 36 beats/min, p < 0.05) and activities of daily life (117 +/- 16 beats/min vs. 152 +/- 37 beats/min, p < 0.05). The CAST quality-of-life questionnaire revealed that patients in the AVJAP group had fewer symptoms at six months (p = 0.003) and at 12 months (p = 0.004). The observed relative risk reduction in symptoms at 12 months was 18%. Global subjective semiquantitative measurement of quality of life using the "ladder of life" revealed that the AVJAP group reported a 6% better quality of life at six months (p = 0.011).
          In this trial, AVJAP for patients with mild to moderately symptomatic permanent AF did not worsen cardiac function during long-term follow-up, and quality of life was improved.

T1  - Mixed-mode electrokinetic chromatography of aromatic bases with two pseudo-stationary phases and pH control.
AN  - 73437490; 12830894
AB  - The electrokinetic chromatographic (EKC) separation of a series of aromatic bases was achieved utilising an electrolyte system comprising an anionic soluble polymer (polyvinylsulfonic acid, PVS) and a neutral beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) as pseudo-stationary phases. The separation mechanism was based on a combination of electrophoresis, ion-exchange interactions with PVS, and hydrophobic interactions with beta-CD. The extent of each chromatographic interaction was independently variable, allowing for control of the separation selectivity of the system. The ion-exchange and the hydrophobic interactions could be varied by changing the PVS and the beta-CD concentrations, respectively. Additionally, mobilities of the bases could be controlled by varying pH, due to their large range of pKa values. The separation system was very robust with reproducibility of migration times being <2% RSD. The two-dimensional parameter space defined by the two variables, [beta-CD] and %PVS, was modelled using a physical model derived from first principles. This model gave very good correlation between predicted and observed mobilities (r2=0.999) for the 13 aromatic bases and parameters derived from the model agreed with the expected ion-exchange and hydrophobic character of each analyte. The complexity of the mathematical model was increased to include pH and this three-dimensional system was modelled successfully using an artificial neural network (ANN). Optimisation of both the two-dimensional and three-dimensional systems was achieved using the normalised resolution product and minimum resolution criteria. An example of using the ANN to predict conditions needed to obtain a separation with a desired migration order between two of the analytes is also shown.

T1  - The phosphotriesterase gene opdA in Agrobacterium radiobacter P230 is transposable
AN  - 18784065; 5657622
AB  - We report a transposase gene (tnpA) upstream of the opdA phosphotriesterase gene of Agrobacterium radiobacter P230, as well as inverted repeats indicative of insertion sequences, flanking the two genes. Both the tnpA gene and the inverted repeats resemble the Tn610 transposon from Mycobacterium fortuitum. Two additional putative open reading frames separate opdA and tnpA with inferred translation products with similarity to two proteins encoded on the Geobacillus stearothermophilus IS5376 transposon. To test the proposition that these genes were contained on a transposon, an artificial composite transposon was constructed. This artificial transposon was then delivered into Escherichia coli DH10 beta cells. Transposition was demonstrated by the presence of opdA on the E. coli chromosome and confirmation of insertion by inverse polymerase chain reaction. The data presented suggest a possible role of transposition in the distribution of the opd/opdA genes across a wide range of soil bacteria.

T1  - Effect of complexity on marine ecosystem models
AN  - 18875551; 5727605
AB  - Ecosystem rather than species management has become an explicit part of policies that feature in international treaties and national legislation. Many of the tools that will be needed to fulfill the requirements of these policies are still in an early stage of development. One such tool is trophic ecosystem modeling. These models have been put forward to aid system-level understanding and provide insight into the potential impacts of human activities. Despite this, there are many gaps in knowledge of their strengths and weaknesses. In particular, little is known about the effect of the level of detail in a model on its performance. There has been some consideration of the effects of model formulation, as well as the effects of the physical, biological and chemical scope of multispecies and ecosystem models on their performance. A review of existing research indicates that there is a humped relationship between model detail and performance for these models, and that there are some guiding principles to consider during model development. This review gives some insight into which model structures and assumptions are likely to aid understanding and management, and which may be unnecessary. Further, it provides some understanding of whether some models can capture properties of real systems that other models cannot. The main recommendation is that the use of a single 'ultimate' ecosystem model is ill-advised, while the comparative and confirmatory use of multiple 'minimum-realistic' models is strongly recommended.

T1  - Direct determination of the proportion of intra- and extra-cellular neocortical neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's disease.
AN  - 85235989; pmid-12691846
AB  - We investigated the cellular localisation of neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's disease. All tau-positive tangles were stained for thioflavine S, while approximately 84% of thioflavine S-stained tangles were tau-immunolabelled. Approximately 58-62% and 73-76% of thioflavine S- and tau-labelled tangles, respectively, were present within cortical neurons labelled for microtubule-associated protein-2. Thus, most neocortical tangles in Alzheimer's disease are intracellular and may not be the principal cause of neocortical cell loss.

References 252 Chaperonins are megadalton ring assemblies that mediate essential ATP-dependent assistance of protein folding to the native state in a variety of cellular compartments, including the mitochondrial matrix, the eukaryotic cytosol, and the bacterial cytoplasm. Structural studies of the bacterial chaperonin, GroEL, both alone and in complex with its co-chaperonin, GroES, have resolved the states of chaperonin that bind and fold non-native polypeptides. Functional studies have resolved the action of ATP binding and hydrolysis in driving the GroEL-GroES machine through its folding-active and binding-active states, respectively. Yet the exact fate of substrate polypeptide during these steps is only poorly understood. For example, while binding involves multivalent interactions between hydrophobic side-chains facing the central cavity of GroEL and exposed hydrophobic surfaces of the non-native protein, the structure of any polypeptide substrate while bound to GroEL remains unknown. It is also unclear whether binding to an open GroEL ring is accompanied by structural changes in the non-native substrate, in particular whether there is an unfolding action. As a polypeptide-bound ring becomes associated with GroES, do the large rigid-body movements of the GroEL apical domains serve as another source of a potential unfolding action? Regarding the encapsulated folding-active state, how does the central cavity itself influence the folding trajectory of a substrate? Finally, how do GroEL and GroES serve, as recently recognized, to assist the folding of substrates too large to be encapsulated inside the machine? Here, such questions are addressed with the findings available to date, and means of further resolving the states of chaperonin-associated polypeptide are discussed.

T1  - Septic System Density and Infectious Diarrhea in a Defined Population of Children
AN  - 19807940; 5713471
AB  - One-quarter of U.S. households use a septic system for wastewater disposal. In this study we investigated whether septic system density was associated with endemic diarrheal illness in children. Cases-children 1 to < 19 years old seeking medical care for acute diarrhea-and controls resided in the Marshfield Epidemiologic Study Area, a population-based cohort in central Wisconsin. Enrollment was from February 1997 through September 1998. Study participants completed a structured interview, and septic system density was determined from county sanitary permits. Household wells were sampled for bacterial pathogens and indicators of water sanitary quality. Risk factors were assessed for cases grouped by diarrhea etiology. In multivariate analyses, viral diarrhea was associated with the number of holding tank septic systems in the 640-acre section surrounding the case residence [adjusted odds ratio (AOR), 1.08; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.02-1.15; p = 0.008], and bacterial diarrhea was associated with the number of holding tanks per 40-acre quarter-quarter section (AOR, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.02-1.46; p = 0.026). Diarrhea of unknown etiology was independently associated with drinking from a household well contaminated with fecal enterococci (AOR, 6.18; 95% CI, 1.22-31.46; p = 0.028). Septic system densities were associated with endemic diarrheal illness in central Wisconsin. The association should be investigated in other regions, and standards for septic systems should be evaluated to ensure that the public health is protected.

T1  - The Relationship between Water Concentrations and Individual Uptake of Chloroform: A Simulation Study
AN  - 19398431; 5712406
AB  - We simulated the relationship between water chloroform concentrations and chloroform uptake in pregnant women to assess the potential extent of exposure measurement error in epidemiologic studies of the health effects of exposure to water disinfection by-products. Data from the literature were used to assign statistical distributions to swimming pool chloroform concentrations, frequency and duration of swimming, showering and bathing, and average tap water consumption. Measured increases in blood chloroform concentrations after these activities were used to estimate average uptake per microgram per liter chloroform in the water, per minute spent in the activity or per liter consumed. Given average tap water chloroform concentrations from a U.K. epidemiologic study, an average daily uptake over 90 days was simulated for 300,000 mothers. The correlation between simulated uptakes and home tap chloroform concentration was 0.6. Mothers who swam regularly received far greater doses than did nonswimmers. Results suggest there will be considerable attenuation in risk estimates and/or power loss in epidemiologic studies if the putative agent is chloroform.

T1  - Physical activity and nutrition programs for couples: A randomized controlled trial
AN  - 18931574; 5676910
AB  - Diet and physical activity habits may deteriorate after cohabitation, leading to weight gain and increased risk of lifestyle diseases. We carried out a 4-month, randomized controlled trial of a diet and physical activity program for couples with a 1-year follow-up, comparing two methods of delivery. The program used six modules, which, after an initial group session, were mailed to the low-level intervention group. In the high-level intervention group, half of the modules were mailed, and the others were delivered at interactive group sessions. A control group received no intervention. Postintervention and at follow-up, physical fitness improved in the high-level group, saturated fat intake decreased in both intervention groups, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol fell in the high-level group. Fewer participants in the high-level group became overweight or obese. Health promotion for couples can improve health behaviors and potentially lower the risk of lifestyle diseases in participants and their future families.

T1  - Linking source and sedimentary basin: Detrital zircon record of sediment flux along a modern river system and implications for provenance studies
AN  - 18929211; 5622308
AB  - U/Pb analysis of detrital zircons from sands along the Frankland River in SW Australia reveal marked downstream changes in their age signatures that correlate with changing basement character. The Archean Yilgarn craton underlies the upper 70% of the river catchment (by area) and detrital zircons from sands in this region are characterized by a unimodal ~2.7 Ga age signature. The lower part of the river catchment flows over the Mesoproterozoic Albany-Fraser orogen and input from this source results in progressive downstream masking of Yilgarn detritus so that in the most downstream samples this source constitutes only 25% of the detrital zircon age spectrum. The Frankland River age data indicate that the lower portions of the drainage system did not form a non-erosive pathway for sediment flux but rather basement lithologies were a continuing source of sediment yield. This probably reflects rejuvenation and incision of the lower reaches of the river system in response to a drop in baseline and possible sequestering of Yilgarn detritus in upstream reservoirs along the broad open mid-region valleys of the river system. These data emphasize that in ancient orogens, where the link between source and sample site is often not preserved, care needs to be exercised in relating detrital zircon age signature to interpretations of source distribution and paleogeographic reconstructions.

T1  - Can Trees Buy Time? An Assessment of the Role of Vegetation Sinks as Part of the Global Carbon Cycle
AN  - 18902440; 5626400
AB  - Atmospheric CO sub(2) concentrations can be reduced by storing carbon in vegetation. However, this lowers the concentration gradient between the atmosphere and other potential carbon reservoirs, such as the oceans, and thereby reduces the subsequent inherent rate of removal of CO sub(2) from the atmosphere. Hence, storage of carbon in temporary reservoirs can reduce atmospheric CO sub(2) concentrations in the short term, but if the carbon is released again, it will increase concentrations in the long term. It must, therefore, be considered when, or, indeed whether, to store carbon in vegetation sinks. To determine an optimal strategy, the exact nature of climate-change impacts needs to be considered first. Impacts can be mediated by: 1. the direct and instantaneous effect of CO sub(2) and its associated temperature; 2. the rate of change in CO sub(2) and its associated temperature; 3. the cumulative effect of CO sub(2) and its associated temperature.Carbon stored in permanently maintained vegetation sinks can lower atmospheric CO sub(2) concentrations, but this can be done most effectively if sequestration occurs close to the time when atmospheric concentrations are to be lowered. Similarly, maximal rates of change can be most effectively reduced by carbon sequestration close to the time of anticipated maximal rates of change. For reducing impacts via cumulative forcing, however, early sink activity would be more effective than delayed activity. Temporary carbon stores would only be beneficial for climate change impacts related to the cumulative impact of CO sub(2), but it could even worsen impacts mediated via the instantaneous effect of temperature or those related to the rate of change. Hence, the planting of trees is only beneficial in reducing climate-change impacts if the most serious impacts are those related to the cumulative effect of increased temperature. If other impacts are more serious, then the planting of trees would bring greater benefits if it is delayed until closer to the time when the most severe impacts are to be expected. However, if serious land degradation would result from deforestation, or from a failure to plant trees in the near future, then trees should still be planted in order to maximise the amount of carbon stored on land.

T1  - Association of Expired Nitric Oxide with Occupational Particulate Exposure
AN  - 18868389; 5712201
AB  - Particulate air pollution has been associated with adverse respiratory health effects. This study assessed the utility of expired nitric oxide to detect acute airway responses to metal-containing fine particulates. Using a repeated-measures study design, we investigated the association between the fractional concentration of expired nitric oxide (F sub(E)NO) and exposure to particulate matter with an aerodynamic mass median diameter of less than or equal to 2.5 mu m (PM sub(2.5)) in boilermakers exposed to residual oil fly ash and metal fumes. Subjects were monitored for 5 days during boiler repair overhauls in 1999 (n = 20) or 2000 (n = 14). The Wilcoxon median baseline F sub(E)NO was 10.6 ppb [95% confidence interval (CI): 9.1, 12.7] in 1999 and 7.4 ppb (95% CI: 6.7, 8.0) in 2000. The Wilcoxon median PM sub(2.5) 8-hr time-weighted average was 0.56 mg/m super(3) (95% CI: 0.37, 0.93) in 1999 and 0.86 mg/m super(3) (95% CI: 0.65, 1.07) in 2000. F sub(E)NO levels during the workweek were significantly lower than baseline F sub(E)NO in 1999 (p < 0.001). A significant inverse exposure-response relationship between log-transformed F sub(E)NO and the previous workday's PM sub(2.5) concentration was found in 1999, after adjusting for smoking status, age, and sampling year. With each 1 mg/m super(3) incremental increase in PM sub(2.5) exposure, log F sub(E)NO decreased by 0.24 (95% CI: -0.38, -0.10) in 1999. The lack of an exposure-response relationship between PM sub(2.5) exposure and F sub(E)NO in 2000 could be attributable to exposure misclassification resulting from the use of respirators. In conclusion, occupational exposure to metal-containing fine particulates was associated with significant decreases in F sub(E)NO in a survey of workers with limited respirator usage.

T1  - Chronic Exposure to High Levels of Particulate Air Pollution and Small Airway Remodeling
AN  - 18864884; 5713368
AB  - Recent evidence suggests that chronic exposure to high levels of ambient particulate matter (PM) is associated with decreased pulmonary function and the development of chronic airflow obstruction. To investigate the possible role of PM-induced abnormalities in the small airways in these functional changes, we examined histologic sections from the lungs of 20 women from Mexico City, a high PM locale. All subjects were lifelong residents of Mexico City, were never-smokers, never had occupational dust exposure, and never used biomass fuel for cooking. Twenty neversmoking, non-dust-exposed subjects from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, a low PM region, were used as a control. By light microscopy, abnormal small airways with fibrotic walls and excess muscle, many containing visible dust, were present in the Mexico City lungs. Formal grading analysis confirmed the presence of significantly greater amounts of fibrous tissue and muscle in the walls of the airways in the Mexico City compared with the Vancouver lungs. Electron microscopic particle burden measurements on four cases from Mexico City showed that carbonaceous aggregates of ultrafine particles, aggregates likely to be combustion products, were present in the airway mucosa. We conclude that PM penetrates into and is retained in the walls of small airways, and that, even in nonsmokers, long-term exposure to high levels of ambient particulate pollutants is associated with small airway remodeling. This process may produce chronic airflow obstruction.

T1  - Bacterial tracking of motile algae
AN  - 18854389; 5600510
AB  - We investigated whether bacterial motility and chemotaxis in the ocean enables bacteria to approach and follow microscopic, moving, point sources of nutrients. The turbulent nature of the ocean combined with the imprecision of run and tumble chemotaxis has led to the assumption that marine bacteria cannot cluster around microscopic point sources. Recent work, however, shows that marine bacteria use a run and reverse strategy. We examine the ability of marine bacteria that use run and reverse chemotaxis to respond to and follow a moving point source. The addition of the 6 mu m in diameter motile algae Pavlova lutheri to cultures of the marine bacteria Pseudoalteromonas haloplanktis and Shewanella putrefaciens revealed bacterial tracking individual free-swimming algae. The marine bacteria travelled at up to 445 mu m s super(-1) when tracking, up to 237 mu m s super(-1) when not tracking and up to 126 mu m s super(-1) in cultures without the algae. Tracking maintained bacteria within one run length of an alga. The bacteria appeared able to steer, consecutively turning up to 12 times toward the motile algae. They recovered from the occasional incorrect turn to continue moving around the swimming alga, indicating that marine bacteria can track moving point sources and form transient phyto- bacterial associations. Our analysis suggests tracking increases nutrient uptake by bringing cells into regions of high nutrient concentrations and by increased advection from high speeds. This result describes what is, apparently, one of the tightest spatial and temporal links between free-living primary and secondary producers in planktonic ecosystems.

T1  - Meta-analysis of Dioxin Cancer Dose Response for Three Occupational Cohorts
AN  - 18827445; 5712202
AB  - This article presents a meta analysis of data from three cohorts occupationally exposed to TCDD and related compounds. A statistically significant (p = 0.02) trend was found in total cancer mortality with increasing dioxin exposure. The trend tests show an increase in total cancer at cumulative TEQ (unit of measurement for TCDD-like compounds that is defined as the amount of TCDD that would produce the same toxicity as a mixture of TCDD-like compounds) serum levels that would result from lifetime intake of 7 pg TEQ/kg body weight/day, with no increase at 6 pg/kg/day. A linear dose response provided a good fit to the combined data and predicted an ED sub(01) (dioxin exposure resulting in a 0.01 increase in lifetime risk of cancer mortality) of 45 pg/kg/day (95% confidence interval, 21-324). The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates that current lifetime human exposures to dioxin average approximately 1 pg/kg/day (99% percentile: 3 pg/kg/day). Although it appears unlikely that current exposures through foods would reach either 7 pg/kg/day or the ED sub(01), our analysis argues for careful consideration of the upper ranges of long-term average exposures for dioxins.

T1  - Blood Lead Levels and Sexual Maturation in U.S. Girls: The Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 1988-1994
AN  - 18826726; 5713470
AB  - Using data from the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, we assessed measures of puberty in U.S. girls in relation to blood lead levels to determine whether sexual maturation may be affected by current environmental lead exposure. The study sample included 1,706 girls 8-16 years old with pubic hair and breast development information; 1,235 girls 10-16 years old supplied information on menarche. Blood lead concentrations (range = 0.7-21.7 mu g/dL) were categorized into three levels: 0.7-2.0, 2.1-4.9, and 5.0-21.7 mu g/dL. Sexual maturation markers included self-reported attainment of menarche and physician determined Tanner stage 2 pubic hair and breast development. Girls who had not reached menarche or stage 2 pubic hair had higher blood lead levels than did girls who had. For example, among girls in the three levels of blood lead described above, the unweighted percentages of 10-year-olds who had attained Tanner stage 2 pubic hair were 60.0, 51.2, and 44.4%, respectively, and for girls 12 years old who reported reaching menarche, the values were 68.0, 44.3, and 38.5%, respectively. The negative relation of blood lead levels with attainment of menarche or stage 2 pubic hair remained significant in logistic regression even after adjustment for race/ethnicity, age, family size, residence in metropolitan area, poverty income ratio, and body mass index. In conclusion, higher blood lead levels were significantly associated with delayed attainment of menarche and pubic hair among U.S. girls, but not with breast development.

T1  - A Longitudinal Examination of Factors Related to Changes in Serum Polychlorinated Biphenyl Levels
AN  - 18824597; 5712917
AB  - Consumption of sport-caught fish from the Great Lakes is a recognized source of human exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Understanding temporal changes in PCB body burden is crucial for evaluating exposure levels and augmenting validity of studies investigating their relationship to adverse health effects. Using data collected from 1980 to 1995, we evaluated longitudinal changes in serum PCB levels among 179 fisheaters and non-fisheaters of the Michigan Fisheater Cohort. Participants identified as fisheaters in 1980 ate 26 lb or more of sport-caught fish per year, whereas non-fisheaters ate less than 6 lb per year. We found a monotonic decline in serum PCB levels among all participants from a mean value of 24 ppb in 1980 to 12 ppb in 1994. This was paralleled by an 83% decrease in mean fish consumption among all participants over the same period. We combined demographic, lifestyle, and fish consumption information with PCB data and evaluated the data using regression models to identify predictors of PCB body burden over a 16-year period. Results of the mixed-effects linear regression model suggest that consumption of Lake Michigan fish before 1980, amount of sport-caught fish eaten in the past year, age, and year of data collection were significant determinants of current PCB body burden over the 16 year study period. PCB levels were particularly elevated for males who were classified as fisheaters in 1980, which may reflect higher levels of sport-caught fish consumption compared with female fisheaters.

T1  - Health Impacts of Pesticide Exposure in a Cohort of Outdoor Workers
AN  - 18822089; 5713419
AB  - We compared mortality of 1,999 outdoor staff working as part of an insecticide application program during 1935-1996 with that of 1,984 outdoor workers not occupationally exposed to insecticides, and with the Australian population. Surviving subjects also completed a morbidity questionnaire. Mortality was significantly higher in both exposed and control subjects compared with the Australian population. The major cause was mortality from smoking-related diseases. Mortality was also significantly increased in exposed subjects for a number of conditions that do not appear to be the result of smoking patterns. Compared with the general Australian population, mortality over the total study period was increased for asthma [standardized mortality ratio (SMR) = 3.45; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.39-7.10] and for diabetes (SMR = 3.57; 95% CI, 1.16-8.32 for subjects working < 5 years). Mortality from pancreatic cancer was more frequent in subjects exposed to 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethane (SMR = 5.27; 95% CI, 1.09-15.40 for subjects working < 3 years). Compared with the control population, mortality from leukemia was increased in subjects working with more modern chemicals (standardized incidence ratio = 20.90; 95% CI, 1.54-284.41 for myeloid leukemia in the highest exposure group). There was also an increase in self-reported chronic illness and asthma, and lower neuropsychologic functioning scores among surviving exposed subjects when compared with controls. Diabetes was reported more commonly by subjects reporting occupational use of herbicides. These findings lend weight to other studies suggesting an association between adverse health effects and exposure to pesticides.

T1  - Mercury Derived from Dental Amalgams and Neuropsychologic Function
AN  - 18818874; 5713418
AB  - There is widespread concern regarding the safety of silver-mercury amalgam dental restorations, yet little evidence to support their harm or safety. We examined whether mercury dental amalgams are adversely associated with cognitive functioning in a cross-sectional sample of healthy working adults. We studied 550 adults, 30-49 years of age, who were not occupationally exposed to mercury. Participants were representative of employees at a major urban medical center. Each participant underwent a neuropsychologic test battery, a structured questionnaire, a modified dental examination, and collection of blood and urine samples. Mercury exposure was assessed using a) urinary mercury concentration (UHg); b) the total number of amalgam surfaces; and c) the number of occlusal amalgam surfaces. Linear regression analysis was used to estimate associations between each marker of mercury exposure and each neuropsychologic test, adjusting for potential confounding variables. Exposure levels were relatively low. The mean UHg was 1.7 mu g/g creatinine (range, 0.09-17.8); the mean total number of amalgam surfaces was 10.6 (range, 0-46) and the mean number of occlusal amalgam surfaces was 6.1 (range, 0-19). No measure of exposure was significantly associated with the scores on any neuropsychologic test in analyses that adjusted for the sampling design and other covariates. In a sample of healthy working adults, mercury exposure derived from dental amalgam restorations was not associated with any detectable deficits in cognitive or fine motor functioning.

T1  - Relative importance of plant ontogeny, host genetic variation, and leaf age for a common herbivore
AN  - 18812419; 5687032
AB  - Using an experimental eucalypt forest of known pedigree and laboratory feeding trials, we examined the relative importance of plant ontogeny (heteroblasty), genetic variation among host trees, canopy height, and leaf age as potential drivers that could affect the distribution and feeding preference of a common insect herbivore, Chrysophtharta agricola. We found that ontogeny is a major factor affecting this insect. Its importance rivaled leaf physiological age, a well-documented factor, which served as our standard for judging the relative importance of other effects. Three patterns emerged: (1) In the field, beetle feeding was nine times greater in the adult zone than in the juvenile zone of heteroblastic trees (i.e., trees with both adult and juvenile foliage). (2) Laboratory feeding trials confirmed their strong preference for adult foliage. (3) Although eucalypt species, hybrid cross type (F sub(1), F sub(2), and backcrosses), and canopy height also exhibited significant effects on beetle feeding in laboratory trials, their relative importance was much less than ontogeny and leaf physiological age. We conclude that beetles perceive greater variation in host quality within individual plants than between different eucalypt species and their hybrids. The magnitude of these effects argues that ontogeny may rival other better studied plant traits that affect herbivores. We discuss how genetic regulation of phenotypic expression in plants may affect herbivore populations and structure communities.

T1  - A Preliminary Controlled Evaluation of a School-Based Media Literacy Program and Self-Esteem Program for Reducing Eating Disorder Risk Factors
AN  - 18764494; 5637618
AB  - This study compared the efficacy of a media literacy program and a self-esteem program designed to reduce general and specific risk factors for eating disorders. Four classes of 86 grade 8 students (53 boys and 33 girls), mean age of 13 years, were randomly assigned to either a control condition or one of the two intervention conditions. Assessment of general and specific risk factors was carried out at baseline, postintervention and 3-month follow-up. At postintervention the media literacy group had lower mean scores on weight concern than the control group (p = 0.007) but the self-esteem group did not. There were some differences on self-esteem measures at the 3-month follow-up. Media literacy programs combined with an interactive, student-centered framework may potentially be a safe and effective way of reducing risk factors for eating disorders. The impact of teaching style needs to be further evaluated in prevention research.

T1  - Stress analysis of interbody fusion--finite element modelling of intervertebral implant and vertebral body
AN  - 18755851; 5627376
AB  - Objective. To investigate stresses in cage type interbody fusion systems during compressive loading. Design. The study uses finite element methods to investigate predicted stresses. Previously published experimental material properties are used as inputs to the numerical simulation. Background. Interbody spinal fusion procedures using cage style intervertebral implants often cause subsidence failure of the vertebral endplate, resulting in potential pain and mechanical instability of the fusion system. Methods. Finite element models were developed to simulate compressive load transfer between interbody implants and adjacent vertebral body. The vertebral body was modelled using separate finite element mesh regions for cancellous core and cortical shell, with the meshes tied together at the core/shell interface. Coulomb friction was implemented to model the contact between implants and vertebral endplate. Results. Simulation results predicted endplate stresses of approximately 12 times the nominal contact pressure due to differing deformation stiffnesses of the implant and endplate structures. Reduction of the cancellous core elastic modulus to simulate severely osteoporotic bone resulted in endplate stresses up to three times higher than the values for an intact cancellous core. Conclusions. In this study, finite element analysis was used to investigate the stresses in interbody fusion systems. Published vertebral loads corresponding to certain activities were shown to generate endplate stresses which approach and exceed the failure stress for cortical bone. Endplate stresses are strongly dependent on the modulus of the underlying cancellous core.

T1  - SPAnDX: a process-based population dynamics model to explore management and climate change impacts on an invasive alien plant, Acacia nilotica
AN  - 18731328; 5596629
AB  - This paper describes a process-based metapopulation dynamics and phenology model of prickly acacia, Acacia nilotica, an invasive alien species in Australia. The model, SPAnDX, describes the interactions between riparian and upland sub-populations of A. nilotica within livestock paddocks, including the effects of extrinsic factors such as temperature, soil moisture availability and atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide. The model includes the effects of management events such as changing the livestock species or stocking rate, applying fire, and herbicide application. The predicted population behaviour of A. nilotica was sensitive to climate. Using 35 years daily weather datasets for five representative sites spanning the range of conditions that A. nilotica is found in Australia, the model predicted biomass levels that closely accord with expected values at each site. SPAnDX can be used as a decision- support tool in integrated weed management, and to explore the sensitivity of cultural management practices to climate change throughout the range of A. nilotica. The cohort-based DYMEX modelling package used to build and run SPAnDX provided several advantages over more traditional population modelling approaches (e.g. an appropriate specific formalism (discrete time, cohort-based, process-oriented), user-friendly graphical environment, extensible library of reusable components, and useful and flexible input/output support framework).

T1  - Disturbed Sexual Characteristics in Male Mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki) from a Lake Contaminated with Endocrine Disruptors
AN  - 16160948; 5712662
AB  - Previous laboratory studies have demonstrated that estrogenic and antiandrogenic chemicals can alter several sexual characteristics in male poeciliid fishes. Whether similar disturbances occur under field conditions remains to be confirmed. Lake Apopka, Florida, is contaminated with numerous chemicals, some of which possess endocrine-disrupting activity. Male mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki) were collected monthly from December 2000 through May 2001 from Lake Apopka and two nearby reference lakes, Orange Lake and Lake Woodruff National Wildlife Refuge. Selected sexual characteristics were compared temporally and among lakes during the collection period. Male fish from Lake Apopka had slightly shorter gonopodia and on average 32 and 47% fewer sperm cells per milligram testis, when compared with the fish collected from Orange Lake and Lake Woodruff, respectively. The testes weights increased markedly during spring, with significantly smaller testes in fish from Lake Apopka than from Orange Lake, but surprisingly, the smallest testes occurred in males obtained from the Lake Woodruff population. The highest liver weights were found in the Lake Apopka population. Whole-body concentrations of testosterone and estradiol varied among months; the peak testosterone concentration occurred in January and was significantly lower in male fish from Lake Apopka compared with Orange Lake. The intensity of male courtship behavior was highly correlated to body testosterone concentration, but no statistically significant differences in sexual behavior among the lakes were found. We conclude that sexual characteristics of relevance to male reproductive capacity are altered in the Lake Apopka mosquitofish population, and we discuss the presence of chemicals with antiandrogenic effects in Lake Apopka as a possible cause of the observed alterations.

T1  - Contemporary-Use Pesticides in Personal Air Samples during Pregnancy and Blood Samples at Delivery among Urban Minority Mothers and Newborns
AN  - 16155414; 5713472
AB  - We have measured 29 pesticides in plasma samples collected at birth between 1998 and 2001 from 230 mother and newborn pairs enrolled in the Columbia Center for Children's Environmental Health prospective cohort study. Our prior research has shown widespread pesticide use during pregnancy among this urban minority cohort from New York City. We also measured eight pesticides in 48-hr personal air samples collected from the mothers during pregnancy. The following seven pesticides were detected in 48-83% of plasma samples (range, 1-270 pg/g): the organophosphates chlorpyrifos and diazinon, the carbamates bendiocarb and 2-isopropoxyphenol (metabolite of propoxur), and the fungicides dicloran, phthalimide (metabolite of folpet and captan), and tetrahydrophthalimide (metabolite of captan and captafol). Maternal and cord plasma levels were similar and, except for phthalimide, were highly correlated (p < 0.001). Chlorpyrifos, diazinon, and propoxur were detected in 100% of personal air samples (range, 0.7-6,010 ng/m super(3)). Diazinon and propoxur levels were significantly higher in the personal air of women reporting use of an exterminator, can sprays, and/or pest bombs during pregnancy compared with women reporting no pesticide use or use of lower toxicity methods only. A significant correlation was seen between personal air level of chlorpyrifos, diazinon, and propoxur and levels of these insecticides or their metabolites in plasma samples (maternal and/or cord, p < 0.05). The fungicide ortho-phenylphenol was also detected in 100% of air samples but was not measured in plasma. The remaining 22 pesticides were detected in 0-45% of air or plasma samples. Chlorpyrifos, diazinon, propoxur, and bendiocarb levels in air and/or plasma decreased significantly between 1998 and 2001. Findings indicate that pesticide exposures are frequent but decreasing and that the pesticides are readily transferred to the developing fetus during pregnancy.

T1  - Application of Toxicogenomic Analysis to Risk Assessment of Delayed Long-Term Effects of Multiple Chemicals, Including Endocrine Disruptors in Human Fetuses
AN  - 14664043; 10645531
AB  - Toxicogenomics is defined as the study of the genes and their products, which are important in adaptive responses to toxic exposures. A summary is provided of analyses of human fetal exposure to multiple chemicals, which has focused on toxicogenomic analyses of human umbilical cords. Multiple chemicals and toxicants were detected in more than 50% of the umbilical cords investigated, including: dioxins, PCBs, DDTs, aldrin, chlordane, hexachlorobenzene, hexachlorocyclohexanes, heavy metals, bisphenol A, and phytoestrogens. The concentrations were found to be higher in first-born babies than in second- or third-born babies. Toxicogenomic analysis is being applied to the data using DNA microarray to develop a new risk-assessment method to evaluate the effects of the chemicals. The steps being used to develop the new risk-assessment method are outlined, and the technical problems and socioethical issues that need to be resolved are elucidated and discussed.

T1  - The Human Proteome Organization (HUPO) and Environmental Health
AN  - 14663752; 10645530
AB  - The Human Proteome Organization (HUPO) is described, which will consolidate national proteome organizations into an international body aimed at scientific and educational activities promoting technologies that will pertain to the human proteome and model organisms. At an international meeting and workshop convened in April 2002, agendas were developed in five key areas, each of which is described: bioinformatics, new technology, the plasma proteome, cell models and tissues, and the antibody initiative. A major goal of the organization will be the mapping of 5000 human proteins, and a major challenge will be the development of a strategy to integrate tissue transcript and protein expression datasets. Ultimately, the organization will examine the interaction and effects of the environment on the proteome, focusing on xenobiotic exposures to toxicity and their contribution to human disease.

AN  - 14663706; 10645529
AB  - The Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD) is being developed to facilitate comparisons of sequences and functions of toxicologically significant genes and proteins from diverse organisms, with an emphasis on aquatic and mammalian species and their responses to toxic chemicals. The aim will be to assess the significance of conserved sequences and polymorphisms, the genetic basis of variable sensitivity, molecular evolution, and adaptation. A brief overview of the CTD is provided, which will be developed in three phases: acquisition and integration of sequences and toxic agents; evaluation and integration of analytical tools for sequence similarity searches; and development of a World Wide Web interface. Each is described.

T1  - Systems Toxicology and the Chemical Effects in Biological Systems (CEBS) Knowledge Base
AN  - 14663488; 10645532
AB  - NIEHS has created the National Center for Toxicogenomics, which is a new field in which researchers study how the genome responds to environmental stressors or toxicants. One aim of the center will be the creation of a public database on the environmental effects of toxic substances in biological systems, called the Chemical Effects in Biological Systems (CEBS) knowledge base. The conceptual framework of the proposed CEBS knowledge base is outlined, focusing on some major design considerations. Development of the database is being envisioned in four phases: collection of microarray gene expression, toxicology, and pathology data; incorporation of corresponding proteomics data sets with similar annotation and bioinformatics tools; integration of gene, protein, and metabolite databases for metabolic and functional pathway discovery; and the addition to two additional databases, one on gene and protein groups and another on single nucleotide polymorphisms.

T1  - Genomic and Proteomic Profiling of Responses to Toxic Metals in Human Lung Cells
AN  - 14663309; 10645533
AB  - cDNA microarrays were used to compare the effects of arsenic, cadmium, chromium, and nickel on the expression of 1200 human genes in human lung bronchial epithelial cells, and the expression of specific relevant genes at the protein level was confirmed in both epithelial and vascular smooth muscle cell models. Treatments were chosen for both cell types that did not cause overt signs of toxicity, except for the highest dose of As. The genes affected by metal exposure are tabulated, which show that each treatment modified expression of a largely unique set of genes, although there was some overlap. Exposure to the toxic metals modified expression of only a small subset of the 1200 total genes examined, and the genes that were altered commonly by more than one treatment were changed in the same direction in terms of increased or decreased expression. For As, the only metal for which the effect of dose was examined, the highest dose did not simply increase the magnitude of the change in the same set of genes; rather, a shift in the gene response profile between the lower and the higher dose was observed.

T1  - Intrinsic Hepatic Phenotype Associated with the Cyp1a2 Gene as Shown by cDNA Expression Microarray Analysis of the Knockout Mouse
AN  - 14659140; 10645535
AB  - cDNA microarrays were used to compare hepatic gene expression differences between untreated Cyp1a2(-/-) knockout mice and Cyp1a2(+/+) wild-type mice. Results indicated that the absence of the gene appeared to lead to changes in expression of some genes related to cell growth, as well as to downregulation of genes in energy production mediated by insulin, which appeared to be separate from activities involving the metabolism of environmental chemicals. The Hprt gene was upregulated along with several other genes, while the Igfbp1 gene was downregulated in the knockout mice.

T1  - Expression Profiling of Estrogenic Compounds Using a Sheepshead Minnow cDNA Macroarray
AN  - 14659109; 10645534
AB  - The expression profile of 30 estrogen-responsive genes in sheepshead minnows treated with both strong and weak estrogenic chemicals was studied in a flow-through aquatic exposure system. The genes examined were a subset of all genes inducible by 17 beta -estradiol, which were isolated by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction in screening experiments where approximately 18% of RNA messages expressed in the livers of the fish were tested. The array also contained several constitutive genes. Results showed similar expression patterns for the estrogen-responsive genes in the array. Fish exposed to 17 beta -estradiol, 17 alpha -ethinyl estradiol, diethylstilbestrol, and methoxychlor had identical genetic signatures for the 30 genes examined, while fish exposed to p-nonylphenol differed by the increased expression of one additional cDNA clone. Six genes were upregulated, and three were downregulated.

T1  - Missing, Exploited and Runaway Youth: Strengthening the System. Hearing before the Subcommittee on Select Education of the Committee on Education and the Workforce. House of Representatives, One Hundred Eighth Congress, First Session.
AN  - 62174521; ED480613
AB  - These hearings transcripts compile testimony regarding how programs authorized by the Runaway and Homeless Youth Act and the Missing Children's Assistance Act currently operate, in preparation for upcoming reauthorization. Opening statements by U.S. Representatives Peter Hoekstra (Michigan) and Ruben Hinojosa (Texas) underscore the obligation to protect runaway and homeless youth and provide assistance to families and law enforcement agencies in locating and recovering missing and exploited children. Testimony offered by the President of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children updated the Center's activities relevant to the mandates of the Missing Children's Assistance Act of 1984 and shared recommendations for the reauthorization, focusing on additions to its originally-mandated activities such as handling Internet child pornography and international child abduction cases, and the importance of the private sector in their work. The Managing Director of the Latin American Youth Center provided information on services to homeless Latino youth in the District of Columbia, highlighting the need for bilingual staff and making recommendations for program improvement. A formerly homeless youth who is currently working toward independent living and a college degree offered testimony on his experiences living on the street in the District of Columbia and explained how Covenant House had helped him. Questions for witnesses related to recruiting bilingual professionals, how diverse activities are coordinated, waiting lists for homeless services, the need for additional funding, the involvement of law enforcement and its interaction with social service providers, and the problem of the vast majority of runaways having no one looking for them. The transcripts' seven appendices contain written statements from witnesses and others and the findings of a statewide survey of homeless youth in Minnesota. (KB)

T1  - Modelling the effects of temperature, water activity, pH and lactic acid concentration on the growth rate of Escherichia coli
AN  - 18649871; 5547722
AB  - An extended square root-type model describing Escherichia coli growth rate was developed as a function of temperature (7.63-47.43 degree C), water activity (0.951-0.999, adjusted with NaCl), pH (4.02-8.28) and lactic acid concentration (0-500 mM). The new model, based on 236 growth rate data, combines and extends previously published square root-type models and incorporates terms for upper and lower limiting temperatures, upper and lower limiting pH, minimum inhibitory concentrations of dissociated and undissociated lactic acid and lower limiting water activity. A term to describe upper limiting water activity was developed but could not be fitted to the E. coli data set because of the difficulty of generating data in the super-optimal water activity range (i.e. >0.998). All data used to generate the model are presented. The model provides an excellent description of the experimental data.

T1  - Performance evaluation of a model describing the effects of temperature, water activity, pH and lactic acid concentration on the growth of Escherichia coli
AN  - 18637976; 5547723
AB  - A square root-type model for Escherichia coli growth in response to temperature, water activity, pH and lactic acid was developed by Ross et al. [Int. J. Food Microbiol. (2002).]. Predicted generation times from the model were compared to the literature data using bias and accuracy factors, graphical comparisons and plots of residuals for data obtained from both liquid growth media and foods. The model predicted well for 1025 growth rate estimates reported in the literature after poor quality or unrepresentative data (n=215) was excluded, with a bias factor of 0.92, and an accuracy factor of 1.29. In a detailed comparison to two other predictive modes for E. coli growth, Pathogen Modeling Program (PMP) and Food MicroModel (FMM), the new model generally performed better. The new model consistently gave better predictions than the other models at generation times [less-than or equal to]5 h. Inclusion of the lactic acid term in the model is proposed to account for the consistently good performance of the model for comparisons to growth in meat, a parameter that is not explicitly included in the other models considered in the comparisons.

T1  - Variation in short-term survival of cultured sandfish (Holothuria scabra) released in mangrove-seagrass and coral reef flat habitats in Solomon Islands
AN  - 18845518; 5612587
AB  - Juvenile cultured sandfish (Holothuria scabra) with a mean size of 35.6 mm plus or minus 11.4 S.D. were released on soft substrata near mangrove-seagrass and lagoonal coral reef flat habitats in the Western Province of Solomon Islands. Mean survival of H. scabra at the mangrove-seagrass sites was 95-100% 1 h after release and approximated 70% 3 days later. At the coral reef flat sites, however, mean survival was as low as 37.5% 1 h after release and total mortality occurred in two of the three releases within 48 h. Mortality of the juvenile H. scabra was due mainly to predation by fish in the families Balistidae, Labridae, Lethrinidae and Nemipteridae. Survival of juvenile H. scabra was improved significantly by releasing them within a cage of 8-mm mesh. This procedure resulted in 100% survival of juveniles in the coral reef flat habitat during the course of the experiment. Our data indicate that mangrove-seagrass areas should be suitable habitats for release of cultured juvenile sandfish in restocking and stock enhancement programs. Release of sandfish at night, to coincide with the time they emerge during their inherent diel burrowing cycle, and the short-term use of protective cages, should be investigated to improve survival of individuals released in mangrove-seagrass habitats.

T1  - The role of physical disturbance in structuring fish assemblages in seagrass beds in Port Phillip Bay, Australia
AN  - 18822328; 5708516
AB  - Disturbance in seagrass habitats may cause variation in the structure of fish assemblages and individual taxa. One important form of disturbance is wave action associated with strong winds. Total fish abundance and species richness from seagrass beds at 2 sites in Port Phillip Bay, Australia, were sampled during low and high wave disturbance. During high wave action (>0.25 m) in seagrass beds, abundance of fish at one site decreased significantly, but species richness was unaffected at both sites. Plankton sampling conducted at the same time as seagrass sampling (directly 300 m offshore from the seagrass sites) found that species richness significantly increased during high wave conditions at both sites. Total fish abundance similarly increased in the plankton during high wave conditions at one site. We conclude that variation in assemblage structure during increased physical disturbance is related to variation in a small number of numerically dominant species within the assemblage. At the individual taxon level, numerically dominant species in the seagrass and plankton showed considerable variation in response to disturbance. In the seagrass assemblage, post-larval King George whiting Sillaginodes punctata (Cuvier and Valenciennes), adult weedfish Heteroclinus perspicillatus (Cuvier and Valenciennes), and pipefish juveniles and adults from the genus Stigmatopora decreased in abundance at either one or both sites during high wave conditions. Conversely, in the plankton, adult pipefish Hypelognathus rostratus (Waite and Hale), juvenile Stigmatopora and larval Gymnapistes marmoratus (Cuvier and Valenciennes) significantly increased in abundance during these same physical conditions. It appears that for some taxa physical disturbance may facilitate secondary planktonic dispersal.

T1  - Geostatistical characterization of centimetre-scale spatial structure of in vivo fluorescence
AN  - 18822241; 5708451
AB  - We present the first quantitative evidence of 2-dimensional non-random spatial structure for in vivo fluorescence distributions measured at scales of centimeters. To determine the presence of non-random structure and to quantify levels of spatial complexity, 2 common geostatistical analysis techniques, namely Moran's I spatial autocorrelation statistic and single-dimension fractal analysis, were employed. Samples were collected at 4 and 2 cm resolution from 2 coastal environments in South Australia; 50% of the distributions were spatially autocorrelated and 60% exhibited fractal scale dependence (with a fractal dimension, D sub(F), ranging from 1.54 to 1.89). Comparison of distributions sampled in the horizontal and vertical indicate that structural complexity is equally important in both planes. Structural complexity was greater at 2 cm than at 4 cm, suggesting that structure may arise at or below the 2 cm scale. This observation is in direct conflict with the general assumption that turbulence homogenizes distributions at these scales.

AB  - Several energy bills were reported from committee in the US House in April 2003 and were merged into H.R. 6. The bill includes provisions related to energy efficiency and conservation, clean coal technology, and restructuring of the electricity industry. The bill would also authorize construction of a natural gas pipeline from the Alaskan North Slope to the lower 48 states, but would allow FERC to do so only for a southern route through the state. The US Senate also began markup of its own comprehensive energy bill in April 2003, agreeing to provisions regarding hydrogen, renewable energy, and hydroelectric relicensing.

T1  - Response of blackwood (Acacia melanoxylon) regeneration to silvicultural removal of competition in regrowth eucalypt forests of north-west Tasmania, Australia
AN  - 18843798; 5612637
AB  - Saplings of blackwood (Acacia melanoxylon) responded positively to release from competing young Eucalyptus obliqua in native forests of north-west Tasmania. In the treated area, 6 years after establishment of the regrowth forest on a cleared and burned seedbed, the young emergent eucalypts were culled by stem injection of herbicide. The dense sub-canopy (principally Pomaderris apetala) was also removed in two gap treatments (3.6 and 7.2m diameter); each treatment applied to 27 single tree plots. During the 6 years following silvicultural treatment, periodic annual increment (PAI) of blackwood stem diameter increased from 0.8cm per year in the untreated area to 1.4cm per year where eucalypts (only) had been removed. The additional removal of the sub-canopy increased blackwood PAI (diameter) to 1.6cm per year in the small gaps and 2.1cm per year in the larger gaps. These are statistically significant increases of 75, 100 and 160%, respectively. However, the larger sub-canopy gaps produced heavier, broader blackwood crowns, increased branch size and retention and reduced the length of branch-free bole. Maximum blackwood diameter and volume gains were therefore achieved at the expense of tree form and future log quality. In contrast, the removal of competing eucalypts (only) produced a smaller stem diameter response, but the remaining dense sub-canopy maintained excellent stem form and clear bole.

T1  - Root distribution of Eucalyptus nitens and E. globulus in irrigated and droughted soil
AN  - 18842836; 5612664
AB  - Root development of Eucalyptus globulus Labill. and E. nitens (Deane and Maiden) Maiden grown in Tasmania was compared between treatments that had been continually irrigated since establishment or subjected to cycles of drought stress. Roots in diameter classes 1-2, >2-5, >5-10 and >10mm were sampled and their frequency recorded in trench walls excavated to bedrock. Length and mass of roots from each diameter class were measured from cores taken from depths 0-10, 10-20 and 20-30cm. Root length density (RLD) and root frequency (RF) in trench walls were greater in droughted than irrigated soil of both species, in smaller diameter than larger diameter roots and in shallower than deeper soil. E. nitens had greater RLD, root mass density (RMD) and RF than E. globulus. E. nitens had a larger and deeper root system than E. globulus with a greater proportion of RLD, RMD and RF below 10cm. Reducing the irrigation load during the growth cycle will stimulate additional root development in irrigated or effluent-irrigated plantations, reducing windthrow.

AN  - 14651160; 10641180
AB  - The 108th Congress is expected to address issues related to public lands managed by USBLM and national forests managed by USFS. A major issue is how to balance the protection and development of these lands, and questions relate to how to protect federal lands from catastrophic wildfires and whether to preserve undisturbed roadless areas. Congress will continue to examine whether to increase access to federal lands for energy and mineral development. Other important issues concern whether to limit presidential authority for creating national monuments and how to determine use of monument lands.

AB  - US responses to and international actions addressing climate change issues are surveyed. The US has ratified the 1992 UN Framework Convention on Climate Change but the Bush Administration rejected the Kyoto Protocol in 2001. In May 2002, the European Union and member states ratified the protocol, and in all, some 106 nations have ratified it to date. President George W. Bush concluded a cabinet-level climate policy review with an announcement of a new approach for the US, based on reducing the greenhouse gas intensity of the economy. This and other voluntary measures, along with increased climate research funding, were announced in February 2002.

T1  - Endangered Species: Difficult Choices
AN  - 14651197; 10641181
AB  - The 107th Congress weighed various measures proposing to amend the 1973 Endangered Species Act. Major issues have focused on whether to incorporate further protection for property owners and reduce regulatory impacts, and whether to increase the protection afforded listed species. The 108th Congress may focus attention on reauthorization, the role of science in decision making under the Act, and on whether the Act should be modified in the context of DOD activities. Resource conflicts, private property and takings, funding for land conservation, critical habitat designation, and consultation with EPA on pesticides are other issues that may warrant congressional attention.

T1  - Synthesis and characterization of hydroxyapatite, fluoride-substituted hydroxyapatite and fluorapatite
AN  - 831165575; 13864900
AB  - Powders of hydroxyapatite (HA), partially fluoride-substituted hydroxyapatite (fHA), and fluorapatite (FA) were synthesized in house using optimum methods to achieve relatively pure powders. These powders were assessed by the commonly used bulk techniques of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) and FT-Raman spectroscopies, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), and F-selective electrode. In addition, the current study has employed transmission electron microscopy (TEM), involving morphological observation, electron diffraction and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX), as an effective analytical technique to evaluate the powders at a microscopic level. The HA and fHA particles were elongated platelets about 2060 nm in size, while FA particles were over twice this size. Calcination of the HA and fHA powders at 1000 C for 1 h resulted in increased grain size and crystallinity. The calcined fHA material appeared to possess a crystal structure intermediate between HA and FA, as evidenced by the (3 0 0) peak shift in XRD, as well as by the position of the hydroxyl bands in the FTIR spectra. This result was consistent with electron diffraction of individual particles. Small levels of impurities in some of the powders were identified by EDX and electron diffraction, and the carbonate content was detected by FTIR. The use of TEM in conjunction with the bulk techniques has allowed a more thorough assessment of the apatites, and has enabled the constituents in these closely related apatite powders to be identified.

T1  - Increased dehydrin promoter activity caused by HvSPY is independent of the ABA response pathway.
AN  - 73151071; 12662307
AB  - A barley SPINDLY protein, HvSPY, is a negative regulator of gibberellin (GA) action. It is also found to be a positive regulator of the promoter of a barley dehydrin (Dhn) gene which is abscisic acid (ABA) upregulated. To investigate whether HvSPY acts through the ABA signaling pathway to upregulate the Dhn promoter, functional characterization was carried out by co-bombardment experiments. These experiments used Dhn promoter-GUS reporter constructs and an effector construct to overexpress HvSPY protein in barley aleurone. ABA dose-response experiments with and without HvSPY overexpression showed that the induction by HvSPY occurred in addition to the ABA effect. Gibberellic acid (GA3) did not reduce the induction by ABA, but it had a small, although significant, effect on the ability of HvSPY to upregulate. The induction of promoter activity of Dhn by HvSPY required the intact protein, and a small deletion in the tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) region reduced this ability significantly. When a promoter region containing an element for ABA responsiveness was mutagenized or deleted, the mutant promoters lost ABA responsiveness but remained responsive to HvSPY. In addition, HvSPY did not increase promoter activities of other ABA-upregulated genes. Taken together, these results indicate that HvSPY and ABA both regulate promoter activity of Dhn, and that HvSPY acts independently of the ABA signaling pathway.

T1  - Nonimmigrant Student Tracking: Implementation and Proposed Modifications. Hearing before the Subcommittee on Immigration, Border Security, and Claims of the Committee on the Judiciary. House of Representatives, One Hundred Eighth Congress, First Session (April 2, 2003).
AN  - 62160336; ED480946
AB  - A hearing was held to explore the operations and effectiveness of the Student and Exchange Visitors System (SEVIS), a tracking system for foreign, nonimmigrant students. In February 2003, SEVIS became operational, and institutions of higher education are required to use the system when admitting new foreign students. Whether SEVIS goes far enough in protecting the United States from foreign criminals and terrorists and whether the system does everything possible to ensure that the student visa program does not endanger national security was discussed by hearing participants. Following opening statements by Representatives John N. Hostettler (Indiana), Lamar Smith (Texas), and Sheila Jackson Lee (Texas), the following witnesses testified: (1) Johnny N. Williams, Interim Director of Immigration Interior Enforcement, U.S. Department of Homeland Security; (2) Glenn A. Fine, Inspector General, U.S. Department of Justice; (3) Thomas P. Fischer, former District Director, Immigration and Naturalization Service; and (4) David War, President, American Council on Education. Also submitted for the record is a letter from Representative John Conyers, Jr. (Michigan). An appendix contains the prepared statements of some of the witnesses. Witnesses pointed out both the strengths and weaknesses of the SEVIS program as it operates. (SLD)

T1  - The Historiography of American Communism: An Unsettled Field
AN  - 60466438; 200318386
AB  - Scholarly treatment of American communism began in the late 1950s & 1960s. The 'traditionalists' argued that the Communist Party, USA, was subordinate to the Soviet Union, possessed a totalitarian ideology, & had no legitimate place on the democratic left. In the 1970s & 1980s a wave of 'revisionist' scholars presented a benign view of American communism as a progressive force, stressed locally-oriented social histories, placed the movement in the traditions of native American radicalism, & minimized the importance of Soviet ties. The opening of the Russian archives in the 1990s reinvigorated the traditionalist approach & inserted CPUSA cooperation with Soviet espionage into the debate. Today the field is unsettled & the debate vigorous. Revisionists are on the defensive while traditionalists increasingly control the argument. Adapted from the source document.

T1  - Nuclear Smuggling: Patterns and Responses
AN  - 60151996; 200314833
AB  - After outlining the extant security threat surrounding former Soviet fissile material, attention turns to describing the black market for nuclear smuggling. Supply-&-demand factors exacerbating proliferation factors in Russia & other former Soviet states include, supply-side, the 1990s economic crisis, general loss of authority during the Yeltsin era, & Russia's international behavior in the nuclear realm; & demand-side, the market for nuclear weapons components is detailed, focusing on the efforts of anti-Western states & terrorist organizations. The shape of the nuclear black market is sketched, contending that its visible aspects appear innocuous, but its true design & extent remain largely unknown. A proactive procurement strategy (ie, a demand-driven smuggling model) requires (1) finding the appropriate grade material & determining the economic & security conditions surrounding it, (2) making the proper approach, (3) recruiting inside collaborators, & (4) building a support structure to transport the stolen materials. A distinction between high- & low-end smuggling is drawn, the latter resembling the visible supply-driven market. Attention turns to the US policy response, highlighting the limits of cooperative supply- & containment-oriented efforts at securing the former Soviet nuclear complex. A demand-side threat reduction policy a la the US-North Korean Agreed Framework of 1994 is proposed, & while uncertainty now exists with North Korea, potential application to Iran & Iraq is briefly considered. 1 Figure.

T1  - Effectiveness of guideline faecal indicator organism values in estimation of exposure risk at recreational coastal sites
AN  - 20131061; 5602271
AB  - Decay rates in coastal water and sediment for the bacterial pathogens Salmonella typhimurium and S. derby were compared in laboratory-based microcosms with results previously obtained for a number of faecal indicators. In general, the decay rates of Salmonella spp. were greater than either enterococci or coliphage in overlying water and sediment. Decay rates of E. coli were similar to Salmonella spp. in overlying water, although greater in sediment. Raised temperature resulted in an increased decay rate for all organisms in the overlying water (and to a lesser extent in the surface sediment layer). It was demonstrated that decay rates for both S. typhimurium and S. derby were greater in overlying water compared with sediment. This suggested that sediments may be acting as a reservoir for pathogenic microorganisms released into the coastal environment during recreational activity and should be considered when estimating environmental exposure. Using measured decay rates and available dose-response data, a quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) utilising Monte Carlo simulation was undertaken to estimate the risk of infection to Salmonella spp. following exposure to recreational coastal water subject to a range of faecal contamination levels. In waters of extremely poor quality, subject to contamination by faecal coliforms (10 super(6) CFU/100 mL), the maximum probability of infection on the day of an accidental release was above 2.0 x 10 super(-1) and remained above 1 x 10 super(-3) for three days following the initial high concentration.

T1  - Water resources: a challenge of the 21st century: Tenth IMO Lecture
AN  - 18859270; 5674557
AB  - In the coming 25 years, with growing population, limited available water resources and ongoing practices of water-resources management, there will be a severe water scarcity. Growing population and limited water resources will lead to a continuous decline in the per capita share of fresh water. Problems related to the lack of access to safe drinking water and sanitation, especially in the developing countries, will have to be addressed.

T1  - Sialoglycoprotein and carbohydrate complexes in chromium toxicity
AN  - 18785714; 5649713
AB  - Chromium(VI) compounds are amongst the most widely encountered industrial carcinogens and are of increasing concern with respect to environmental exposure. Sialoglycoproteins and carbohydrates play a crucial role in stabilizing oxoCr(V) intermediates, which are produced by extracellular and intracellular reduction of chromium(VI). Recent research has addressed the molecular characterization of oxoCr(V)-sialoglycoprotein and -carbohydrate complexes and the roles that these species may play in Cr(VI) metabolism and carcinogenesis. Particular highlights include the role of oxoCr(V) complexes of extracellular sialoglycoproteins, intracellular D-glucose, and related species and their potential roles in Cr(VI)-induced genotoxicity.

T1  - The Association between Bone Mineral Density, Metacarpal Morphometry, and Upper Limb Fractures in Children: A Population-Based Case-Control Study
AN  - 18773193; 5642179
AB  - The aim of this population-based case-control study was to examine the association between bone mass and upper limb fractures in children aged 9-16 yr. Areal bone mineral density and bone mineral apparent density (BMAD) were measured by both dual energy absorptiometry (DXA) and metacarpal index (MI) by hand radiograph. A total of 321 fracture cases and 321 randomly selected individually matched controls were studied. For all fractures, cases had lower DXA measures at all sites (1.1-3.3%; all P  0.05). For metacarpal measures, cases had a thinner cortical width and lower MI for wrist and forearm fractures only. In multivariate modeling, both spine BMAD (odds ratio, 1.4/SD reduction) and MI (odds ratio, 1.5/SD reduction) remained statistically significant predictors of wrist and forearm fractures. In conclusion, both DXA measures and MI are independently associated with wrist and forearm but not other upper limb fractures. The magnitude of this association is somewhat weaker than in adults but suggests that optimizing age-appropriate bone mass will lessen the risk of fracture in children.

T1  - Refuge sites used by the scincid lizard Tiliqua rugosa
AN  - 18768954; 5631132
AB  - We examined microhabitat use by the Australian scincid lizard Tiliqua rugosa (the sleepy lizard) in chenopod shrubland. Thirty radiotagged lizards were followed during their spring period of activity (September-November 2000). Characteristics of refuges used by the lizards were compared with the perennial woody plants in 10 10 m x 10 m randomly located quadrats at each of the three sites in the study area. We found that sleepy lizards used multiple refuge sites. Perennial woody bushes constituted an important habitat component for both active and inactive lizards. Use of refuge sites by the lizards was non-random. They used large bushes with foliage in contact with the ground ('dome shaped'), and they sheltered under thorny bushes more frequently than expected if choice was random. Bushes that were used repeatedly tended to be larger and were more likely to be dome-shaped. Under these large and dome-shaped bushes, daytime temperatures were lower than under smaller bushes. Refuge use was modified as the season progressed, with lizards using larger bushes and a greater proportion of dome-shaped bushes later in the season. We suggest that sleepy lizards are modifying their refuge site use as ambient temperatures increase, based on microclimatic needs, implying an ability to discriminate among bushes.

T1  - Short-term effects of farming practices on populations of common voles
AN  - 18763651; 5637101
AB  - Management decreases rodent numbers through reduction of vegetation height and cover along fence lines and other refuge habitats. Most farming practices remove vegetation and the short-term impact of mowing, mulching, harvesting and ploughing was studied on common voles (Microtus arvalis). Population dynamics and demographic parameters were estimated by live trapping before, and after farming practices were carried out. A gradient of disturbance according to the reduction of vegetation height, vegetation cover and nest sites is proposed. Estimates of vegetation height and vegetation cover before, and after farming practices fitted the model as well as the population response. It is concluded that only ploughing can suppress common vole populations the other farming practices being inappropriate to control pest rodents.

T1  - The redistribution of protein sulfur in transgenic rice expressing a gene for a foreign, sulfur-rich protein
AN  - 18759620; 5625117
AB  - Sulfur amino acid composition is an important determinant of seed protein quality. A chimeric gene encoding sunflower seed albumin (SSA), one of the most sulfur-rich seed storage proteins identified so far, was introduced into rice (Oryza sativa) in order to modify cysteine and methionine content of the seed. Analysis of a transgenic line expressing SSA at approximately 7% of total seed protein revealed that the mature grain showed little change in the total sulfur amino acid content compared to the parental genotype. This result indicated that the transgenic rice grain was unable to respond to the added demand for cysteine and methionine imposed by the production of SSA. Analysis of the protein composition of the transgenic grain showed changes in the relative levels of the major seed storage proteins, as well as some non-storage proteins, compared to non-transgenic controls. Changes observed at the protein level were concomitant with differences in mRNA accumulation but not always with the level of transcription. The limited sulfur reserves appeared to be re-allocated from endogenous proteins to the new sulfur sink in the transgenic grain. We hypothesize that this response is mediated by a signal transduction pathway that normally modulates seed storage protein composition in response to environmental fluctuations in sulfur availability, via both transcriptional and post-transcriptional control of gene expression.

T1  - Normalization of joint moments during gait: a comparison of two techniques
AN  - 18744898; 5615876
AB  - Joint moments are commonly used to characterize gait. Factors like height and weight influence these moments. This study determined which of two commonly used normalization methods, body mass or body weight times height, most reduced the effects of height and weight on peak hip, knee, and ankle external moments during walking. The effectiveness of each normalization method in reducing gender differences was then tested. Gait data from 158 normal subjects were analyzed using unnormalized values, body mass normalized values, and body weight times height normalized values. Without normalization, height or weight accounted for 7-82% of the variance in all 10 peak components of the moments. With normalization, height and weight accounted for at most 6% of the variance with the exception of the hip adduction moment normalized by body weight times height and the ankle dorsiflexion moment normalized by body mass. For the hip adduction moment normalized by body weight times height, height still accounted for 13% of the variance (p<0.001) and for the ankle dorsiflexion moment normalized by body mass, 22% of the variance (p<0.001). After normalization, significnat differences between males and females remained for only two out of 10 moments with the body weight times height method compared to six out of 10 moments with the body mass method. When compared to the unnormalized data, both normalization methods were highly effective in reducing height and weight differences. Even for the two cases where one normalization method was less effective than the other (hip adduction-body weight times height; ankle dorsiflexion-body mass) the normalization process reduced the variance ascribed to height or weight by 48% and 63%, respectively, as compared to the unnormalized data.

T1  - Distribution of Chlamydia pneumoniae DNA in Atherosclerotic Carotid Arteries: Significance for Sampling Procedures
AN  - 18723378; 5597461
AB  - Despite extensive efforts to confirm a direct association between Chlamydia pneumoniae and atherosclerosis, different laboratories continue to report a large variability in detection rates. In this study, we analyzed multiple sections from atherosclerotic carotid arteries from 10 endartectomy patients to determine the location of C. pneumoniae DNA and the number of sections of the plaque required for analysis to obtain a 95% confidence of detecting the bacterium. A sensitive nested PCR assay detected C. pneumoniae DNA in all patients at one or more locations within the plaque. On average, 42% (ranging from 5 to 91%) of the sections from any single patient had C. pneumoniae DNA present. A patchy distribution of C. pneumoniae in the atherosclerotic lesions was observed, with no area of the carotid having significantly more C. pneumoniae DNA present. If a single random 30- mu m- thick section was tested, there was only a 35.6 to 41.6% (95% confidence interval) chance of detecting C. pneumoniae DNA in a patient with carotid artery disease. A minimum of 15 sections would therefore be required to obtain a 95% chance of detecting all true positives. The low concentration and patchy distribution of C. pneumoniae DNA in atherosclerotic plaque appear to be among the reasons for inconsistency between laboratories in the results reported.

T1  - Male-biased sex ratios in New Zealand fur seal pups relative to environmental variation
AN  - 18702490; 5593091
AB  - A number of models have been proposed to provide adaptive explanations of sex-ratio variation in mammals. Two models have been applied commonly to primates and ungulates with varying success-the Trivers-Willard (TW) hypothesis, and the local resource competition (LRC) hypothesis. For polygynous, sexually dimorphic mammals, where males are larger and disperse more readily, these models predict opposite outcomes of sex-ratio adjustment within the same environmental context (high-resource years: TW-more sons; LRC-more daughters). However, many of the predictions of these two models can vary depending on factors influencing resource availability, such as environmental stochasticity, resource predictability, and population density. The New Zealand fur seal (Arctocephalus forsteri) is a polygynous mammal showing marked sexual dimorphism (larger males), with higher variation in male reproductive success expected. We provide clear evidence of male-biased sex ratios from a large sample of A. forsteri pups captured around South Island, New Zealand during 1996/1998, even after accounting for a sex bias in capture probability. The extent of the bias depended upon year and, in 1998, strong climatic perturbations (El Nino /Southern Oscillation, ENSO) probably reduced food availability. Significant male-biased sex ratios were found in all years; however, there was a significant decline in the male bias in 1998. There was no relationship between sex ratio and population density. We suggest that the sex-ratio bias resulted from the production of relatively more male pups. Under the density-independent scenario, the strong male bias in A. forsteri sex ratios is support for the TW model within an environment of high resource predictability. We suggest that some plasticity in the determination of pup sex among years is a mechanism by which A. forsterifemales in New Zealand, and perhaps other otariid seals, can maximise fitness benefits when living in regions of high, yet apparently predictable, environmental variability. We also suggest that much of the inconsistency in the reported sex ratios for otariid seals results from the complex interaction of population density and environmental stochasticity influencing relative food availability over time.

T1  - Changes in a remnant of salmon gum Eucalyptus salmonophloia and York gum E. loxophleba woodland, 1978 to 1997. Implications for woodland conservation in the wheat-sheep regions of Australia
AN  - 18636014; 5543596
AB  - The condition of salmon gums Eucalyptus salmonophloia with large hollows in them in a 15-ha patch of remnant salmon gum-York gum E. loxophleba woodland in the northern wheatbelt of Western Australia was examined in 1978. The patch was an important breeding area for six species of cockatoo, including two endangered species. The patch was revisited in 1981 when the condition of all 682 salmon gums and York gums in the patch was examined and each was measured and photographed. A further visit was made in 1997 when the condition of the surviving trees was examined and each was again measured and photographed. The condition of the trees at each visit was classified as 'good', 'staghorn', 'broken top', 'dead' or 'fallen.' Over the period of the study there was a serious decline in the condition of the trees, with few large trees in the 'good' category by 1997. The decline was particularly marked between 1978 and 1981 after a period of well-below average annual rainfall. Using data based on the rate of decline over the period 1978-1997, predictions were made of the fate of the trees in the patch. By 2125 only 46 (11% of the 1981 total) salmon gums were predicted to be alive with only one in the 'good' category. Only 16 (17%) York gums were predicted to be alive by 2125, with only one in the 'good' category. There was no evidence of any regeneration of woodland trees since 1929 when the patch was isolated by clearing for agriculture, and domestic livestock allowed to graze the patch. This deterioration of the dominant trees in the patch is symptomatic of remnant native vegetation over vast areas of Australia's extensively cleared wheat-sheep regions. The future of woodland patches like the one studied is bleak, as is the future of animals dependent on them for food, breeding sites and shelter. Active management, including fencing to exclude domestic livestock and measures to encourage regeneration of native plant communities, is necessary to counter the present regime of benign neglect that characterises most of Australia's management of native vegetation in agricultural landscapes.

T1  - Live history evolution in Serpulimorph polychaetes: a phylogenetic analysis
AN  - 18050085; 5735719
AB  - The widely accepted hypothesis of plesiomorphy of planktotrophic, and apomorphy of lecithotrophic, larval development in marine invertebrates has been recently challenged as a result of phylogenetic analyses of various taxa. Here the evolution of planktotrophy and lecithotrophy in Serpulimorph polychaetes (families Serpulidae and Spirorbidae) was studied using a hypothesis of phylogenetic relationships in this group. A phylogenetic (parsimony) analysis of 36 characters (34 morphological, 2 developmental) was performed for 12 selected serpulid and 6 spirorbid species with known reproductive /developmental strategies. Four species of Sabellidae were used in the outgroup. The analysis yielded 4 equally parsimonious trees of 78 steps, with a consistency index (CI) of 0.654 (CI excluding uninformative characters is 0.625). Under the assumption of unweighted parsimony analysis, planktotrophic larvae are apomorphic and non-feeding brooded embryos are plesiomorphic in serpulimorph polychaetes. The estimated polarity of life history transitions may be strengthened by further studies demonstrating an absence of a unidirectional bias in planktotrophy-lecithotrophy transition in polychaetes.

T1  - Remote sensing of soil salinity: potentials and constraints
AN  - 17664551; 5586076
AB  - Soil salinity caused by natural or human-induced processes is a major environmental hazard. The global extent of primary salt-affected soils is about 955 M ha, while secondary salinization affects some 77 M ha, with 58% of these in irrigated areas. Nearly 20% of all irrigated land is salt-affected, and this proportion tends to increase in spite of considerable efforts dedicated to land reclamation. This requires careful monitoring of the soil salinity status and variation to curb degradation trends, and secure sustainable land use and management. Multitemporal optical and microwave remote sensing can significantly contribute to detecting temporal changes of salt-related surface features. Airborne geophysics and ground-based electromagnetic induction meters, combined with ground data, have shown potential for mapping depth of salinity occurrence. This paper reviews various sensors (e.g. aerial photographs, satellite- and airborne multispectral sensors, microwave sensors, video imagery, airborne geophysics, hyperspectral sensors, and electromagnetic induction meters) and approaches used for remote identification and mapping of salt-affected areas. Constraints on the use of remote sensing data for mapping salt-affected areas are shown related to the spectral behaviour of salt types, spatial distribution of salts on the terrain surface, temporal changes on salinity, interference of vegetation, and spectral confusions with other terrain surfaces. As raw remote sensing data need substantial transformation for proper feature recognition and mapping, techniques such as spectral unmixing, maximum likelihood classification, fuzzy classification, band ratioing, principal components analysis, and correlation equations are discussed. Lastly, the paper presents modelling of temporal and spatial changes of salinity using combined approaches that incorporate different data fusion and data integration techniques.

T1  - The effect of light:dark cycles of medium frequency on photosynthesis by Chlorella vulgaris and the implications for waste stabilisation pond design and performance
AN  - 17281792; 5776514
AB  - The effect of light/dark (L:D) cycle times on the recovery from photoinhibition of green micro-alga Chlorella vulgaris (CCAP211/11c) and the cyanobacterium Synechococcus (CCAP1479/5) was investigated using an irradiated, temperature controlled oxygen electrode. The onset of photoinhibition in both organisms occurred at irradiances > 300 mu mol m super(-2)s super(-1) at temperatures > 15 degree C. Light/dark cycle times were controlled independently using a relay timer and shutter placed between the quartz iodide light source and the oxygen electrode chamber. Oxygen evolution decreased rapidly when cells were continuously irradiated at 300, 500 and 750 mu mol m super(-2)s super(-1). However, Chlorella cells irradiated at 300, 500 and 750 mu mol m super(-2)s super(-1) on a L:D cycle of 60s:20s, 30s:60s and 60s:120s respectively, maintained a constant rate of oxygen evolution over a 24 h incubation period. Exposure time to a given incident irradiance rather than the total light dose received appeared to determine the effect of light/dark cycle times on photosynthesis. A relationship was established between L:D ratio required to maintain constant oxygen production and incident photon flux density. The results suggest that the adverse effects of high irradiances on algae near the surface of a stratified waste stabilisation pond might be ameliorated by controlled mixing of algal cells through the depth of the pond.

T1  - Methyl Mercury and Inorganic Mercury in Swedish Pregnant Women and in Cord Blood: Influence of Fish Consumption
AN  - 14664187; 10643680
AB  - Hair and cord blood samples were collected from 123 pregnant women in Uppsala County, Sweden, and total mercury and methylmercury (MeHg) concentrations were determined and related to fish intake. The women completed an extensive food frequency questionnaire reflecting their usual intake, and based on the reported data, intake of grams of fish/d were calculated. Total Hg was analyzed in hair, and total Hg, inorganic Hg, and selenium were measured in umbilical cord blood. Most of the women reported awareness of the dietary recommendations to refrain from consumption of certain fish during pregnancy, and they reported less consumption of freshwater fish during than before pregnancy. Methylmerury in cord blood was associated significantly with total Hg in maternal hair, and both measures increased with increasing total consumption of seafood. A significant correlation was found between the concentrations of Se and MeHg in cord blood, and an almost significant association was noted between Se in cord blood and total Hg in maternal hair. A clear increase was found in fetal inorganic Hg exposure with increasing number of maternal dental amalgam fillings.

T1  - The Biocide Tributyltin Reduces the Accumulation of Testosterone as Fatty Acid Esters in the Mud Snail (Ilyanassa obsoleta)
AN  - 14664138; 10643649
AB  - Mud snails Ilyanassa obsoleta were exposed to environmentally relevant concentrations of tributyltin, and effects on the fatty-acid esterification of testosterone were studied. The snails were exposed for three or six months to nominal tributyltin concentrations of 0, 0.1, 1.0, or 10.0 ng/l. After the exposure periods, the sex of the snails was determined, and females were evaluated for imposex. The study results showed that tributyltin exposure induced both imposex and elevated immunodetectable testosterone levels. The increase in immunodetectable testosterone was not caused by an increase in total testosterone, but by an increase in the proportion of total testosterone that was available in the free, immunodetectable form. The accumulation of testosteronefatty-acid ester decreased with increasing tributyltin exposure concentration, and while the maximal reduction was only about 13%, it added approximately 3 pg/mg to the free testosterone pool.

T1  - Atrazine-Induced Hermaphroditism at 0.1 ppb in American Leopard Frogs (Rana pipiens): Laboratory and Field Evidence
AN  - 14662586; 10643672
AB  - The effects of atrazine exposure on leopard frogs Rana pipiens were investigated under controlled conditions in the laboratory, and wild R. pipiens from a variety of habitats with different atrazine use were then examined along a transect that extended from Utah to the IowaIllinois border. At each site, atrazine concentrations were measured in water samples. Results from the laboratory exposures showed that atrazine disrupted gonadal development. Testicular tubules were poorly developed in the exposed animals, while germ cells appeared reduced, and oocytes were allowed to develop in animals identified as hermaphrodites. The observed effects were more pronounced at the lower dose of 0.1 ppb than at the higher dose of 25.0 ppb. Males that appeared to undergo complete sex reversal exhibited gonads almost completely filled with oocytes, and only a limited number of lobules remained. In the field, testicular oocytes were identified in males from seven of the eight sites studied. All sites with atrazine concentrations exceeding 0.2 ppb contained males that displayed sex reversal similar to that observed in the laboratory.

AN  - 14662563; 10643648
AB  - The global cancer incidence for males and females was retrieved from the compilation of cancer registries of the International Agency for Research on Cancer, and sex differences in tumor incidence were examined and expressed as normalized indices. Sex differences in life expectancy at birth were also explored. The results suggested that cancer has a predominantly environmental origin, with cultural and socioeconomic factors influencing the observed sex difference in cancer incidence. The distribution of life expectancy also followed the geographical distribution, as in the majority of cases, there was male disadvantage, with the exception of a few developing countries.

T1  - Inhalation of Concentrated Ambient Air Particles Exacerbates Myocardial Ischemia in Conscious Dogs
AN  - 14662520; 10643645
AB  - Conscious retired mongrel breeder dogs were exposed to real-world ambient-air particles in a controlled setting, and effects on myocardial ischemia were examined. The level of occlusion-induced ischemia was assessed by electrocardiographic criteria after inhalation exposure to either concentrated ambient particles or filtered air. Some animals were exposed to concentrated ambient particles every day and some were exposed on selected days. The resulting data showed that exposure to concentrated ambient particles exacerbated coronary artery occlusion-induced ischemic insult. The ST-segment elevation in the electrocardiograms increased more rapidly after the start of the occlusion and reached a higher peak value in the concentrated ambient particle-exposed dogs than in sham-exposed controls. The enhancement of the ST-segment elevation remained on the day after exposure.

AB  - As part of the North Carolina School Asthma Survey, symptomatic middle-school children were examined under a variety of exposures to compare children who did and did not report upper respiratory infection-triggered wheezing. Questionnaires were used to collected information on a variety of asthma risk factors and environmental exposures, and stratified analyses and unconditional logistic regression models containing interaction terms were used to assess potential interaction. Results indicated that upper respiratory infection-triggered wheezing was most associated with reported allergen sensitivity, relative to other asthma risk factors and environmental exposures. However, upper respiratory infection-triggered wheezing increased with increasing exposure to smoking. Females had a slightly higher prevalence of the condition than males.

T1  - Estrogens from Sewage in Coastal Marine Environments
AN  - 14661852; 10643666
AB  - Marine water samples were collected from several sites within the main Hawaiian Islands; northwestern Hawaiian Islands; Marianas Islands; French Polynesia; Rehoboth Bay, DE; the Florida Keys; and the enclosed Biosphere 2 ocean in Arizona, and the presence of estrogens was examined. Each sample was ranked according to its proximity to sewage effluents. Selected wastewater samples were also collected and analyzed. Estrogens were concentrated and assayed using a highly specific radioimmunoassay for estrone. The sampling sites in embayments with sewage sources were found to have one to two orders of magnitude higher estrone concentrations than sites in the open ocean. Much higher estrone concentrations were found in water samples collected near beaches with septic fields and public toilet facilities. The highest concentrations of estrone were detected in Rehoboth Bay and Key West Harbor. All relevant concentration data are tabulated.

T1  - Environmental Estrogens Alter Early Development in Xenopus laevis
AN  - 14661822; 10643659
AB  - Xenopus laevis embryos were treated with nonylphenol, octylphenol, p,p'-DDE, or methoxychlor beginning at stage 10.5, which corresponds to the onset of developmental apoptosis but is prior to the onset of neural induction, and effects were compared with those induced by saline, vehicle, 17 beta -estradiol, or 17 alpha -methyltestosterone. The tadpoles were examined at stage 37, which is the end of the critical period for the detrimental actions of 17 beta -estradiol. The exposure concentrations ranged from 10 nM to 10 mu M. Exposure to the compounds with estrogenic actions resulted in increased mortality, gross abnormalities in body shape, enhanced apoptosis, and significant aberrations in the differentiation of neural crest-derived melanocytes. The effects were both compound- and dose-dependent. The actions of nonylphenol were inhibited by the pure antiestrogen, ICI 182,780, but the actions of methoxychlor were not. The overall results showed that early exposure to estrogenic toxicants induced widespread abnormalities in a number of developing tissues, with the neural crest derivatives being most affected.

T1  - Disruption of Androgen Regulation in the Prostate by the Environmental Contaminant Hexachlorobenzene
AN  - 14661784; 10643654
AB  - Two strains of transgenic mice, the mE-RABP-CAT and the LPB-CAT mouse, were used to investigate the impact of hexachlorobenzene on hormonal action. The two mice express the chloroamphenicol acetyl transferase reporter gene under the direction of a highly androgen-sensitive promoter in the epididymis and prostate, respectively. The mice were dosed orally with hexachlorobenzene levels similar to highly exposed individuals, but elevated compared with average human exposure levels. Results showed that lower doses of hexachlorobenzene acted as an androgen agonist, but higher doses apparently antagonized androgen action. In both strains of mice, hexachlorobenzene decreased chloramphenicol acetyl transferase expression and prostate weights.

T1  - Assessing Human Polychlorinated Biphenyl Contamination for Epidemiologic Studies: Lessons from Patterns of Congener Concentrations in Canadians in 1992
AN  - 14661450; 10643651
AB  - The fact that individual PCB congeners are not observed outside the laboratory complicates the assessment of human contamination. In an effort to group PCB congeners, at least those detected frequently in human tissues, into biologically similar categories, previously assayed results on 38 congeners from 497 human milk samples obtained across Canada in 1992 were examined. Twelve of the congeners were quantified in at least 90% of the samples, and another 12 were quantified in 4090% of the samples. The determined correlations among the congeners are tabulated, which show that congeners 138, 153, 156, 157, 170, 183, 187, 194, 199, and 203 formed a particularly tight group. The mono-ortho congeners 74, 105, and 188 were also correlated. Most of the PCB congeners showed low correlations with organochlorine compounds, although fairly high correlations were found for trans-nonachlor, p,p'-DDE, and o,p'-DDT.

T1  - Mercury Levels in High-End Consumers of Fish
AN  - 14661146; 10643675
AB  - At a general internal medicine practice in San Francisco, CA, composed mostly of middle- to high-income patients, all patients were evaluated for risk of mercury excess. The subjects estimated the number of times per week or month they consumed specific fish, as well as the portion size they consumed per serving. When patients were identified as having Hg intake at or greater than the reference dose for their average monthly intake, blood samples were collected and analyzed for Hg. Patients were also tested if they had symptoms consistent with methylmercury excess. Fish consumption was correlated positively with Hg elevations in the study population, with swordfish having the highest positive correlation. Snapper consumption correlated negatively with Hg level. In patients with high blood Hg levels, the concentrations declined markedly when they stopped consuming fish.

T1  - A Practice Approach for Identifying Previously Unsuspected Environmental Contributors to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Other Complex Diseases
AN  - 14661119; 10643673
AB  - Many complex human diseases occur at differing rates and severities depending on the population being considered, and the observed gender- and population-specific differentials appear to have both genetic and environmental contributors. The use of qualitative and quantitative ethnographic data to further elucidate disease susceptibility is discussed, focusing on the habitus that integrates the details of everyday routine as a holistic lived experience. Habitus is defined as internalized schemas based on a lifetime of socialization and experience that individuals use to perceive, interpret, and take action as they encounter new experiences. Possible methods for designing studies to quantify environmental contributors to complex diseases, which take into account differences in habitus, are considered.

T1  - Effects of a Diphenyl Ether-Type Herbicide, Chlornitrofen, and Its Amino Derivative on Androgen and Estrogen Receptor Activities
AN  - 14661099; 10643660
AB  - Two transcriptional reporter gene assays for detecting transcriptional activities via androgen-receptor and estrogen-receptor activities were established using transfection reagent FeGene6 and Chinese hamster ovary cells, and the assays were used to investigate the effects of the herbicide, chlornitrofen, and its amino derivative on androgenic and estrogenic activities. The binding affinities of the compounds to human androgen receptor and human estrogen receptor- alpha were also assessed using a receptor competitive-binding assay. In the human androgen-receptor assay, both chlornitrofen and chlornitrofen-amino exhibited a dose-dependent, suppressive effect on the DHT-induced transcriptional activity, The antiandrogenic potency of chlornitrofen was higher than that of vinclozolin, p,p'-DDE, and o,p'-DDT. A similar antiandrogenic potency was found for chlornitrofen-amino. In the human estrogen-receptor- alpha assay, both compounds possessed estrogenic activity, but not antiestrogenic activity. Use of the competitive receptor-binding assay revealed that the antiandrogenic and estrogenic activities of chlornitrofen and chlornitrofen-amino were mediated by way of the binding of the compounds to androgen receptor and estrogen receptor- alpha .

T1  - Arsenic-Induced Dysfunction in Relaxation of Blood Vessels
AN  - 14661094; 10643663
AB  - Isolated thoracic aortic rings from male SpragueDawley rats were used to examine the effects of arsenite on the relaxation of blood vessels. The rings were treated with arsenite or vehicle in an incubator for 14 h. Phenylephrine was applied to pre-contract the rings, followed by the cumulative addition of acetylcholine to obtain concentrationrelaxation curves. Results showed that arsenite suppressed the relaxation induced by acetylcholine in a concentration-dependent manner, while no such effect was found for other arsenic species. In addition, the basal guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate levels in the aortic rings were decreased significantly by arsenite, also in a concentration-dependent manner. The data suggested that arsenite may have interfered with some relaxation mechanism in addition to inhibiting endothelium-dependent nitric oxide production.

T1  - Antiandrogenic Activity and Metabolism of the Organophosphorus Pesticide Fenthion and Related Compounds
AN  - 14661071; 10643661
AB  - The in vivo androgen-responsive element-luciferase reporter-transfected mouse fibroblast cell line, NIH3T3, and the in vitro Hershberger assay were used to study the androgenic and antiandrogenic activities of fenthion and related compounds. The estrogenic and antiestrogenic activities of the compounds were also examined using the estrogen-responsive element-luciferase reporter-transfected human breast cancer cell line, MCF-7, and rat liver preparations were used to examine the influence of the metabolism of fenthion on the endocrine-disrupting activities. No estrogenic or antiestrogenic activity of fenthion was detected, but fenthion was found to be a potent antiandrogen, whereas fenthion sulfoxide and fenthion sulfone were not. The antiandrogenic activity of fenthion was found to be comparable to that of flutamide. Fenitrothion and ethyl p-nitrophenyl benzenethiophosphonate were also found to be antiandrogenic, while fensulfothion, trichlorfon, and malathion were not. Fenthion was oxidized to fenthion sulfoxide by the rat liver microsomes, which inactivated the antiandrogenic activity of the pesticide.

T1  - Geographic Differences in Semen Quality of Fertile U.S. Males
AN  - 14661046; 10643647
AB  - Data collected during the Study for Future Families, funded by NIEHS, were examined to assess geographic differences in semen quality of fertile males in the US. The subjects were recruited at prenatal clinics affiliated with university hospitals in Los Angeles, CA; Minneapolis, MN; Columbia, MO; and New York City. Sperm samples were collected from the partners of 512 pregnant women, and sperm concentration, semen volume, motility, and morphology were assessed. Significantly lower sperm concentration and total motile count were found in fertile men from Missouri compared to the other three states.

T1  - Particulate Matter, Sulfur Dioxide, and Daily Mortality in Chongqing, China
AN  - 14660970; 10643671
AB  - In Chongqing, China, PM sub(2.5) and sulfur dioxide concentrations were measured daily throughout 1995 at a site located downtown and at a residential site, and the concentrations were examined in relation to daily mortality. The mean PM sub(2.5) and SO sub(2) concentrations were 147 and 213 mu g/m super(3), respectively, and the maximum concentrations were 666 and 571 mu g/m super(3), respectively. No significant associations were found between PM sub(2.5) and any cause of mortality, but significant associations were noted between increased SO sub(2) and cardiovascular mortality on the second and third lag days and between SO sub(2) and respiratory mortality on the second lag day.

T1  - Alteration of Pulmonary Immunity to Listeria monocytogenes by Diesel Exhaust Particles (DEPs): II. Effects of DEPs on T-Cell-Mediated Immune Responses in Rats
AN  - 14660934; 10643665
AB  - Male Brown Norway rats were exposed to either purified air or diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) at concentrations of 50 or 100 mg/m super(3) for 4 h and then exposed ip to Listeria monocytogenes, and effects on T-cell-mediated immune responses were examined. A strong correlation was found between the bacterial counts in lungs and the lymphocyte differentials measured at 7 d post-exposure in animal exposed to DEPs. At the higher DEP exposure dose, there was a marked increase in total lymphocytes in Listeria-infected lungs. The combined effects of Listeria and DEP exposure were characterized by an increase in CD4 super(+) and CD8 super(+) cell counts and a significant increase in the CD8 super(+)/CD4 super(+) ratio. Lymphocytes obtained at 7 d post-infection from rats exposed to Listeria or to Listeria and DEPs exhibited increased interleukin-2 receptor alpha and ability to reutilize the secreted interleukin-2. Exposure to DEPs also augmented Listeria-induced lymphocyte production of interleukin-6 and the production of interferon- gamma .

T1  - Serum Levels of 2,2',4,4',5,5'-Hexachlorobiphenyl (CB-153) in Relation to Markers of Reproductive Function in Young Males from the General Swedish Population
AN  - 14660899; 10643646
AB  - Male subjects born during the period 197982 and living within an area of 60 km from Malmo, Sweden, were studied to assess any possible relationship between blood levels of 2,2',4,4',5,5'-hexachlorobiphenyl (CB-153) and markers of male reproductive function, including: testis size, sperm concentration, total sperm count, sperm motility, and serum levels of follicle-stimulating hormone, inhibin B, testosterone, sexual hormone-binding globulin, leuteinizing hormone, and estradiol. A statistically significant negative, but weak, correlation was discerned between the CB-153 levels and the percentage of motile cells assessed by a computer-aided sperm analyzer. The same pattern of correlations was also noted for the conventional motility parameters. An increase in blood CB-153 levels by 10 ng/g lipid corresponded to a 1% decrease in the percentage of motile spermatozoa, which was accompanied by an equal increases in the percentage of immotile cells. A significant positive correlation was found between serum levels of CB-153 and sexual hormone-binding globulin, while correlations were negative between CB-153 and the testosterone:sexual hormone-binding globulin ratio and between CB-153 and estradiol.

T1  - Evaluation of Mercury in Urine as an Indicator of Exposure to Low Levels of Mercury Vapor
AN  - 14660705; 10643678
AB  - The published literature was reviewed for articles containing air and urine mercury concentration data, and the data were analyzed to determine whether biological monitoring of Hg in urine could be used to evaluate low-level airborne exposure to elemental Hg. Data from a total of ten studies were interpreted using pooled analysis techniques. A significant correlation was discerned between Hg in air and in urine at concentrations less than 50 mu g/m super(3). Urinary Hg levels could be related to airborne Hg levels down to approximately 10 mu g/m super(3), but below that level, urinary Hg was not a useful quantitative measure of Hg exposure from air.

T1  - Ecologic Analysis of Some Immune-Related Disorders, Including Type 1 Diabetes, in Australia: Latitude, Regional Ultraviolet Radiation, and Disease Prevalence
AN  - 14660648; 10643664
AB  - Data from the 1995 Australian National Health Survey, in which approximately 54,000 people from all states and territories provided information regarding their own health status, were used to examine the association between latitude and prevalence of the immune-related disorders, type 1 diabetes mellitis, rheumatoid arthritis, eczema/dermatitis, and asthma. Regional differences in ambient UV radiation were also considered in the analysis. The prevalence of type 1 diabetes was found to be correlated positively with latitude, while asthma prevalence was correlated inversely with latitude. Type 1 diabetes prevalence was also correlated inversely with regional average solar-noon UV radiation, while asthma prevalence was correlated positively with regional average solar-noon UV radiation. The other immune-related disorders, while showing some trends with latitude and UV radiation, did not meet the criteria of statistical significance.

T1  - Childhood Cancer Incidence Rates and Hazardous Air Pollutants in California: an Exploratory Analysis
AN  - 14659312; 10643683
AB  - Population-based childhood cancer incidence rates in California census tracts were analyzed by hazardous air pollutant exposure scores based on the estimated excess lifetime cancer risk. The California Cancer Registry was used to obtain data on all invasive cancer cases diagnosed between 1988 and 1994 in children younger than 15 yr, and a geographic information system was utilized to match case addresses with a road network and to determine the corresponding census tract of each child's residence at the time of diagnosis. Exposure scores for each census tract were calculated by multiplying the modeled air concentration and the corresponding inhalation unit risk factor for potentially carcinogenic hazardous air pollutants, with the latter combining the cancer potency for each compound with standard assumptions for body weight and breathing rate. No significant childhood cancer excess was found within census tracts in the highest exposure category for all hazardous air pollutants combined, but the rate ratios for leukemias appeared to be elevated in those tracts. The most dramatically elevated childhood cancer and leukemia incidence rates were noted within census tracts in the highest exposure category for point sources, while census tracts in the highest exposure categories for area- and mobile-source hazardous air pollutants had slightly elevated leukemia rates.

T1  - Asthma Symptoms in Hispanic Children and Daily Ambient Exposures to Toxic and Criteria Air Pollutants
AN  - 14659289; 10643681
AB  - In Hispanic schoolchildren with asthma who lived in an area of east Los Angeles County, CA, flanked by major freeways and trucking routes and with among the highest VOC levels in the Los Angeles air basin, the relationship between asthma and concentrations of ambient criteria air pollutant gases, VOCs, PM sub(10), and elemental and organic carbon fractions was investigated. The subjects reported the severity of their asthma symptoms and results of morning and evening peak expiratory flow maneuvers, as well as the daily number of as-needed beta -agonist inhaler puffs and preventive asthma medications. While none of the measured pollutant gases was associated with peak expiratory flow, many positive associations were found between asthma symptoms and exposures to criteria air pollutant gases as well as VOCs. Symptom scores were associated with benzene, ethylbenzene, toluene, xylenes, tetrachloroethylene, and 1,3-butadiene. Positive associations were also found between asthma symptoms and concentrations of nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and ozone. Positive associations were found between asthma symptoms and organic C, elemental C, and PM sub(10), and there were possible inverse associations of evening peak expiratory flow with all three. All relevant data are tabulated.

T1  - Evaluation of Recreational Health Risk in Coastal Waters Based on Enterococcus Densities and Bathing Patterns
AN  - 14659262; 10643674
AB  - Along a contiguous stretch of coastline in Huntington Beach and Newport Beach, CA, historical enterococcus density data were obtained for the period June 1998December 2000, and relationships between enterococcus density and highly credible gastrointestinal illness were examined to determine risk to the individual bather from exposure to sewage and storm-drain runoff, respectively. Highly credible gastrointestinal illness was defined as symptoms of vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, or stomach ache, accompanied by a fever. The model used is outlined. Highest enterococcus concentrations were found near the mouth of the Santa Ana River, but no bathers were observed at that location. At all locations, peak enterococcus concentrations were detected frequently during late winter and early spring, but abnormally high concentrations were found during the summer of 1999. Illness rates were found to be elevated substantially at particular beaches then bathing activity was concentrated at contaminated locations, although the spatial location of bathers did not make a substantial difference in terms of the estimated aggregate illness rates. The illness rates were sensitive to the relationship between enterococcus density and highly credible gastrointestinal illness risk.

T1  - Relationship of Blood and Bone Lead to Menopause and Bone Mineral Density Among Middle-Age Women in Mexico City
AN  - 14659247; 10643679
AB  - In a cohort of 232 women attending an osteoporosis-screening program in Mexico City, the relationship between blood and bone lead was investigated and related to menopause status. Among the women, 36 were pre- or perimenopausal, and 196 were postmenopausal. Bone mineral density was also measured at the lumbar spine and femur neck. Blood Pb concentration was found to increase significantly in the postmenopausal period, especially in the first 3 yr. The age-adjusted difference in trabecular bone Pb concentrations observed between post- and premenopausal women suggested that Pb was mobilized from the bone compartments toward the circulation, contributing to the increase in blood Pb levels. The use of replacement estrogens was associated with lower blood Pb levels among postmenopausal women. No linear relationship was observed between blood Pb levels and age, ad no relationship was found between blood Pb values and bone mineral density values. The use of Pb-glazed ceramics was found to be an important predictor of blood Pb levels.

T1  - Fetal Chlorpyrifos Exposure: Adverse Effects on Brain Cell Development and Cholinergic Biomarkers Emerge Postnatally and Continue into Adolescence and Adulthood
AN  - 14659223; 10643667
AB  - Timed-pregnant SpragueDawley rats were injected ip with chlorpyrifos, dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide, at concentrations of 0, 1, or 5 mg/kg daily on gestational days 1720. Offspring were weaned on postnatal day 21 and then decapitated and examined immediately or decapitated and examined at postnatal days 30 or 60. The effects of chlorpyrifos on the development of cholinergic biomarkers, DNA biomarkers, and protein biomarkers were evaluated. Results showed that prenatal chlorpyrifos exposure elicited marked alterations that emerged in the postnatal period. Postnatal deficits in cholinergic activity were identified that persisted into adulthood and that were associated with, but not necessarily caused by, delayed, generalized effects on brain cell development. The subsequent development of cholinergic synaptic function was compromised by prenatal chlorpyrifos exposure, as characterized by deficits in the index of neural activity without substantial loss of nerve terminals. The changes persisted into adolescence and adulthood and corresponded to the long-term deficits in cholinergic components of working and reference memory.

AN  - 14659216; 10643669
AB  - Xenopus laevis tadpoles were exposed to two domestic Chinese PCBs, designated PCB sub(3) and PCB sub(5), from Nieuwkoop and Faber stage 46/47 to complete metamorphosis, and the effects on gonadal differentiation were examined. The PCB exposure concentration was 10 mu g/l. Exposure to PCBs had no effect on frog survival. Abnormal males, including intersexes, were observed in the PCB-exposed groups, although the percentage was relatively low. Feminization was evident, however, based on histologic sections, with oocytes occurring in sections of morphologically abnormal testes induced by PCB sub(3) and PCB sub(5).

T1  - Phosphorylation of p53 Protein in A549 Human Pulmonary Epithelial Cells Exposed to Asbestos Fibers
AN  - 14659194; 10643662
AB  - The mutational inactivation of p53 protein is one of the most common genetic events occurring in human cancers, and data have suggested a possible association between asbestos exposure and accumulation of p53 protein in pulmonary tissues or cells. Using A549 human pulmonary epithelial type II cells, the ability of chrysotile and crocidolite to induce phosphorylation of p53 at Ser15 and other serines was investigated. Inhibitors to the members of mitogen-activated protein kinase and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-related kinases were used to determine the protein kinases responsible for asbestos-induced p53 phosphorylation. At exposure doses ranging 110 mu g/cm super(2) for 24 h, both asbestos types increased the levels of p53 phosphorylated at Ser15 and p53 protein. No clear phosphorylation was observed at other serine residues. Chrysotile was found to be more potent than crocidolite on a per-weight basis. The data suggested that chrysotile-induced Ser15 phosphorylation was dependent upon the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-related kinase family. Treatment with catalase or N-acetylcysteine failed to suppress chrysotile-induced Ser15 phosphorylation.

T1  - Altered Profiles of Spontaneous Novelty Seeking, Impulsive Behavior, and Response to D-Amphetamine in Rats Perinatally Exposed to Bisphenol A.
AN  - 14659181; 10643644
AB  - Bisphenol A was administered orally to pregnant female SpragueDawley rats from mating to weaning day, and offspring were then tested for novelty preference during adolescence. The same subjects were also tested for intolerance to delay for amphetamine-induced behaviors in an open field. Bisphenol A was administered daily to the pregnant females at a concentration of 0.04 mg/kg. Results showed that offspring of both sexes that were perinatally exposed were associated with more marked levels of novelty-induced hyperactivity compared with controls. The bisphenol A-exposed females, however, spent a lower percentage of time in the novel environment. Both sexes were associated with a more marked preference for the large and delayed" reinforcer during the whole experiment, which was an index of decreased impulsivity, and compared to unexposed controls, the exposed males exhibited a feminization in the frequency of inadequate nose poking at the immediate and small" hole during the length of the delay. Perinatal bisphenol A exposure was able to impair the classic response to D-amphetamine in the male subjects. The findings suggested that perinatal exposure to bisphenol A interacted with some steps in the organization of the serotoneric and dopaminergic neural systems in the male offspring.

T1  - Cancer Risks in Naval Divers with Multiple Exposures to Carcinogens
AN  - 14658784; 10643676
AB  - In Israel, the Kishon River and Haifa Bay have long served as training sites for naval divers, and since the 1960s, the number of divers with cancer has increased. In this study, data regarding sources, daily industrial effluents, indicators of water quality, and toxic compounds in water from the sites were examined and related to cancer outcomes among the Naval Commando Diving Unit. Many toxic agents were found in the waters and sediments, including: PAHs, benzene, toluene, xylene, long-chain and branched hydrocarbons, phenols, alcohols, chlorinated alkylbenzene, trichloroethylene, trichlorophenol, cresols, cycloalkanes, aldehydes, ketones, and brominated and chlorinated aromatic organic compounds. Concentrations of toxic metals were also found to be high. As the divers wore wet suits, there was prolonged skin contact with PAHs, benzene and derivatives, and other agents having partition coefficients that predict a high degree of skin penetration. The divers also reported swallowing a lot of water, resulting in complaints of indigestion and nausea. Causeeffect relationship analysis suggested that risks from less than 1 h of diving in these waters were equal to smoking approximately two packs of cigarettes. The effects observed in marine life at the diving locations predicted later risks for cancer in the divers.

T1  - Ultrafine Particulate Pollutants Induce Oxidative Stress and Mitochondrial Damage
AN  - 14658743; 10643653
AB  - Ambient coarse particles, fine plus ultrafine particles, and ultrafine particles were collected in the Los Angeles, CA, basin during November 2001March 2002, and their oxidative-stress effects and subcellular localization in cultured macrophages and epithelial cells were examined. The particles were analyzed for metal and trace-element content and PAH content. Ultrafine particles were found to have significantly higher organic and elemental carbon content than the other particle sizes, while coarse and fine particles had a higher metal content. A statistically significant difference in total PAH content was found between the particle sizes. The ultrafine particles were determined to be more potent than fine and coarse particles toward inducing oxidative stress. Electron microscopy also indicated subcellular penetration and mitochondrial damage by ultrafine particles and, to a lesser extent, by fine particles. The results correlated with particulate-matter organic C and PAH composition.

T1  - Exposure to 4-tert-Octylphenol Accelerates Sexual Differentiation and Disrupts Expression of Steroidogenic Factor 1 in Developing Bullfrogs
AN  - 14658738; 10643670
AB  - Bullfrog Rana catesbeiana tadpoles were exposed to 4-tert-octylphenol, at concentrations of 0, 10 super(-9), 10 super(-8), or 10 super(-7) M, during the critical stages of sexual differentiation, and effects on the expression of steroidogenic factor-1 were examined. At all 4-tert-octylphenol exposures, a greater percentage of individuals underwent gonadal differentiation than did controls, and exposure to the compound advanced the stage at which the bipotential gonad differentiated into a morphologically distinct ovary or testis. The overall sex ratios of the treated animals did not differ from controls at any dose, however. Exposure to 4-tert-octylphenol disrupted the sexually dimorphic expression of steroidogenic factor-1 protein levels, but the outcome of gonadal differentiation with regard to sex was not affected.

T1  - Emission of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons and Their Carcinogenic Potencies from Cooking Sources to the Urban Atmosphere
AN  - 14658712; 10643658
AB  - In a city in southern Taiwan, stack emissions from four types of restaurants were collected and analyzed for their PAH contents. The restaurant types were Chinese, Western, fast food, and Japanese. Emissions of PAHs from home kitchens were also estimated, and for both source types, the carcinogenic potency associated with the emissions was estimated. In all restaurant stack emissions, the concentrations of gaseous PAHs were higher than those of particulate PAHs, but the carcinogenic potency of the former was determined to be lower than that of the latter. The PAH emission intensities were greatest for the Chinese restaurants, followed in decreasing order by Western, fast food, and Japanese restaurants. The PAH emission rates estimated for home kitchens were higher than those for restaurants. The total PAH emission rate from cooking sources was determined to be 0.66-fold that from traffic sources, but the total benzo(a)pyrene equivalent emission rate from cooking sources was determined to be approximately 11-fold that from traffic sources.

T1  - Effects of Submicrometer Particle Compositions on Cytokine Production and Lipid Peroxidation of Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells
AN  - 14658699; 10643657
AB  - Ambient particles were collected at four monitoring stations in Taiwan, and the size and component effects of PM sub(1.0) PM sub(1.0) sub(2.5), and PM sub(2.5) sub(10) were characterized and correlated with cytokine-inducing and oxidative stress-inducing activities in respiratory epithelial cells. Particle bioactivity was assessed using human bronchial epithelial BEAS-2B cells and RAW 264.7 cells. The ability of the ambient particles to elicit inflammatory cytokine production and to cause lipid peroxidation was found to be size-dependent. Cytokine production by epithelial cells was greatest for submicrometer particles and least for PM sub(1.0) sub(2.5). The submicrometer particles also elicited the highest tumor necrosis factor alpha response, which remained after the endotoxin in the particulate was neutralized by polymyxin B. Manganese and chromium were associated with interleukin-8 production in epithelial cells, while iron and Cr were associated with tumor necrosis factor alpha production in macrophages. Elemental and organic C were associated positively with lipid peroxidation induction.

T1  - The Upper Airway Response to Pollen Is Enhanced by Exposure to Combustion Particulates: a Pilot Human Experimental Challenge Study
AN  - 14658691; 10643656
AB  - Atopic subjects with and nonatopic subjects without self-reported seasonal allergic rhinitis were exposed randomly to clean air followed by pollen, fuel-oil combustion particles followed by no allergen, or combustion particles followed by pollen, and the relationship between combustion particulate exposure and enhanced inflammatory responses was explored. Following each exposure, which occurred at least two weeks apart, cytokine levels were measured in nasal lavage fluid. Symptoms of allergen exposure were obtained via questionnaire immediately before, immediately after, and 4 and 18 h after the challenge. A greater-than-additive interaction between particulate exposure and allergen challenge was found. A 1-h residual oil flyash particulate exposure 3 h before challenge with pollen enhanced the nasal inflammatory response, which consisted of an increase in inflammatory cells and in the cytokines, interleukin-4 and -8. Atopics had an enhanced interleukin-4 and inflammatory cell response, whereas nonatopics did not, but for interleukin-8, there was an enhanced response in both atopics and nonatopics, although the response was larger in nonatopics. Because only the number of neutrophils, but not eosinophils, was enhanced, the cellular response could have been an irritant response, rather than an allergic response.

T1  - The Role of Transgenic Mouse Models in Carcinogen Identification
AN  - 14658664; 10643652
AB  - Three transgenic mouse models used widely for carcinogen identification are described, and results are presented from an assessment of the potential merit of each. The models include the Trp53 heterozygous null allele mouse, the Tg:AC mouse, and the rasH2 mouse. The data examined pertained to responses to chemical treatment in each model, and each model was evaluated by determining its respective ability to identify human carcinogens. The results suggest that a strategy employing two of the models worked well, especially the use of the standard rat bioassay in conjunction with Tr53+/- for genotoxic chemicals and the Tg:AC or rasH2 for nongenotoxic chemicals. Several research needs that should be addressed to ensure that the use of transgenic models has been evaluated adequately are identified and discussed.

T1  - Bone Resorption Is Affected by Follicular Phase Length in Female Rotating Shift Workers
AN  - 14656493; 10643677
AB  - In 12 healthy female workers on rotating shifts in a textile mill in Anqing, China, work-shift status, ovarian hormone profiles, and bone metabolites were assessed during two consecutive menstrual cycles to examine whether a delay of ovulation and lengthening of the follicular phase were induced by the changing of work-shift regularity and if the alterations in menstrual cycle were associated with increased bone resorption. Results revealed that the rotating shift workers had some shorter- and longer-length menstrual cycles, and the hormone profiles of the cycles showed that the variations in cycle length resulted primarily from differences in the length of the follicular phase of the cycle. Evidence was also found of increased bone resorption in the follicular phases of the longer cycles, as measured by levels of urinary deoxypyridinoline.

T1  - Interaction of Organophosphate Pesticides and Related Compounds with the Androgen Receptor
AN  - 14656457; 10643668
AB  - The interaction of a select group of fenitrothion derivatives with the androgen receptor was investigated using human hepatoma HepG2 cells that were transfected with human androgen receptor plus an androgen-responsive luciferase reporter gene. Only methyl parathion 3 and ethylfenitrothion 5 demonstrated sufficient androgen receptor antagonistic activity to determine potency in dose-shift experiments. The doseresponse curves obtained indicated that, similar to fenitrothion, the compounds were competitive androgen receptor antagonists. Methyl parathion 3 and ethylfenitrothion 5 were 16- and 8-fold less potent, respectively, than fenitrothion. The structural basis for the observed androgen receptor agonist activity is outlined.

T1  - DNA Damage Associated with Ultrastructural Alterations in Rat Myocardium After Loud Noise Exposure
AN  - 14656421; 10643655
AB  - Male Wistar rats were subjected to noise produced by two loudspeakers placed at a distance of 40 cm at two opposite sides of a cage, and effects on DNA integrity and the ultrastructure of cardiomyocytes were examined. The sound intensity was set at 100 dB(A), and exposure lasted 12 h. Exposure to loud noise was observed to induce genetic damage, and the amount of damage did not decline rapidly, persisting almost unchanged for 24 h after the end of exposure. The molecular effects observed in heart cells were accompanied by morphologic alterations in the mitochondria. The subcellular alterations observed with electron microscopy revealed that damage measured at 24 h after cessation of the stimulus was slightly higher compared with that found immediately after noise exposure.

T1  - Polychlorinated Biphenyls and Reproductive Hormones in Female Polar Bears at Svalbard
AN  - 14656390; 10643650
AB  - Blood samples were collected in the Svalbard region of the Norwegian Arctic from 360 male and female polar bears of different ages, and plasma concentrations of PCBs were examined in females in relation to concentrations of the reproductive hormones, progesterone and 17 beta -estradiol, and cortisol. The progesterone concentrations were significantly higher in single females than in females with cubs or yearlings, while the plasma 17 beta -estradiol concentrations did not differ between the reproductive groups. In females with offspring, the progesterone concentrations were related only to the log of the sum of PCBs, not to age, body mass, PCB 118, capture date, or cortisol, while in single females, progesterone concentrations were related only to the capture date. Females with yearlings had lower total PCB concentrations than single females or females with cubs.

T1  - Global Climate Change: Market-Based Strategies to Reduce Greenhouse Gases
AN  - 14655313; 10641184
AB  - Concern about the costs of climate mitigation schemes has prompted consideration of carbon dioxide reduction proposals that use market-based mechanisms. CO sub(2) reduction schemes being advocated pose large uncertainties in terms of the perceived reduction needs and potential costs of attaining reductions. Tradeable permit programs would reduce emissions to a specific level with the control cost handled efficiently but not at a specific cost level. C taxes would effectively cap marginal control costs at the specific tax level but the precise level of emission reduction achieved would be less certain. Issues pertaining to joint implementation, economic impact, and equity are also discussed.

T1  - Clean Air Act Issues in the 108th Congress
AN  - 14654552; 10641178
AB  - The most prominent air quality issue facing the 108th Congress has been controversy over EPA's proposed changes to the New Source Review requirements, which impose emission controls on modifications of power plants and other major facilities. The US Senate narrowly defeated an amendment that would have delayed implementation of changes to the requirements pending a study by NAS. The Administration also asked Congress to modify Clean Air Act requirements for power plants by enacting Clear Skies or multi-pollutant legislation. The US Senate narrowly approved multi-pollutant legislation, but it did not reach the Senate floor due to power sector and Administration opposition. Other clean air issues that might be considered in the 108th Congress are the conformity of metropolitan area transportation plans with the Act and whether to modify the Act's requirements for areas that have not met deadlines for attainment of the ozone air quality standard.

T1  - Nursery conditions affect seedling chemistry, morphology and herbivore preferences for Eucalyptus nitens
AN  - 18691184; 5576522
AB  - We examined intraspecific variation in leaf chemistry and seedling morphology of Eucalyptus nitens grown under three different nursery conditions, and compared these with preferences of two species of marsupial herbivore: red-bellied pademelons, Thylogale billardierii, and common brushtail possums, Trichosurus vulpecula. Chemical and morphological variation with nursery treatment reflected variation in light and nitrogen limitation to seedlings. This variation is discussed in terms of the carbon-nutrient balance hypothesis. The most resource-limited seedlings had the lowest biomass and nitrogen level, but highest specific leaf area, lignin:leaf area ratio, gallotannin:nitrogen ratio and sideroxylonal levels. Both pademelons and possums preferred these resource-limited seedlings least. Possums showed greater discrimination than pademelons for the two other nursery treatments, indicating differences in the two species' responses to seedling characteristics. Results show that environmental variation in nursery growing conditions has potential in reducing palatability to seedlings, and hence browsing damage, in plantation forestry.

T1  - Fertilizer effects on LAI and growth of four Eucalyptus nitens plantations
AN  - 17676494; 5576518
AB  - Leaf area index (LAI) is a key driver of water and nutrient use, carbon balance, and the rate of growth of plantation forests, but these interactions can be environment-dependent. Our aim was to determine the relationship between LAI and stem growth in four 5-8-year-old Eucalyptus nitens plantations and its dependence on site and fertilization. Fertilizers were applied at various intervals between planting and age 6 years at cumulative rates that ranged from 0 to 1600kg Nha super(-1) and 0 to 700kg Pha super(-1). Stem growth and LAI were monitored for 2 years. Values of LAI ranged from 1.4 to 9.6, and temporal variations in LAI were small. Fertilization increased LAI by up to 3.1 units. There was a strong relationship across all sites and treatments between initial LAI and growth, and predictions using LAI were more precise than those using basal area as the independent variable.

T1  - Civilian Nuclear Waste Disposal
AN  - 14654538; 10641187
AB  - DOE is studying various scientific issues in determining the suitability of Yucca Mountain, NV, for a nuclear waste repository, which must be licensed by NRC. The goal for loading waste into the repository under the 1982 Nuclear Waste Policy Act was 1998, but DOE does not expect to open the facility until 2010 at the earliest. The latter plans to submit a construction permit application to NRC in late 2004 for the repository, and DOE received $460 million for the waste program in FY2003, a 23% increase from FY2002. During FY2005-2010, funding will have to increase to an average of $1.3 billion/yr. Low-level wastes are a state responsibility, and while 10 regional compacts for disposal have been approved by Congress, commercial low-level waste sites are currently operating only in South Carolina, Utah, and Washington.

T1  - Environmental Streamlining Provisions in the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century: Status of Implementation
AN  - 14657840; 10641193
AB  - The Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century requires DOT to streamline the environmental review process for highway projects. Regulations to put streamlining into practice have not been finalized, although the Clinton Administration proposed them. The Bush Administration withdrew them after many stakeholders argued that it would further complicate the review process and possibly result in further delays. In the interim, President Bush issued an executive order directing federal agencies to expedite environmental reviews for high-priority transportation projects. Two highway streamlining bills were introduced late in the 107th Congress, but not enacted, and similar proposals may be considered during the 108th Congress.

AB  - The 107th Congress enacted brownfields, bioterrorism, and sediment contamination statutes. The Small Business Liability Relief and Brownfield Revitalization Act was enacted in 2002. The Bioterrorism Preparedness Act authorized funding for drinking water vulnerability assessments and security upgrades. In the first session, Congress appropriated $7.9 billion for EPA for FY2002, plus another $176 million in supplemental funding for anti-terrorism activities. In July 2002, the Senate approved $8.3 billion for EPA for FY2003; the Bush Administration had requested $7.6 billion.

AB  - Clean Water Act issues likely to receive attention in the 108th Congress include revisions to the current program for restoration of pollution-impaired waters, and programs that regulate activities in wetlands, especially Section 404. Congress may examine details of revised clean water rules for management of confined animal farm operation waste issued by EPA in December 2002. Early indications are that the 108th Congress, like the preceding one, will focus on water infrastructure funding legislation.

T1  - The Environmental Protection Agency's FY2003 Budget
AN  - 14652373; 10641179
AB  - For FY2003, President George W. Bush requested $7.62 billion in budget authority for EPA, $458 million less than the total FY2002 appropriation of $8.08 billion. The FY2003 request included $670 million for the Science and Technology account. The adequacy of federal funding to help meet state and local wastewater and drinking water capital needs has been an ongoing issue, and estimates of funding needs are as high as $1 trillion over the next 20 yr. The FY2003 State and Tribal Assistance Grants account to address these and other needs was $3.46 billion, $275 million less than in FY2002.

AB  - Since September 11, 2001, EPA has increased efforts to help water utilities safeguard facilities and supplies from terrorist or other threats. In the emergency supplemental appropriations for FY2002, he 107th Congress provided EPA with about $90 million for drinking water security. Of this total, the agency awarded $51 million in grants to large community water systems to assess their vulnerability to terrorist attacks and to prepare emergency response plans. Congress also passed the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002, which requires many community water systems to perform vulnerability assessments and prepare emergency response plans.

T1  - Head Start: Working Towards Improved Results for Children. Hearing before the Subcommittee on Education Reform of the Committee on Education and the Workforce. House of Representatives, One Hundred Eighth Congress, First Session.
AN  - 62170180; ED480614
AB  - These hearings transcripts present testimony on the impact of the Head Start program for preparing disadvantaged children for school, to inform the reauthorization of Head Start. Opening statements by U.S. Representatives Michael Castle (Delaware) and Lynn Wolsey (California) focused on needs for improving Head Start. A written statement by Representative Ciro Rodriguez (Texas) argues that the proposed block funding of Head Start will not meet poor children's needs and will not work for Migrant and Seasonal Head Start. Testimony was offered by two panels of witnesses, the first comprised of Assistant Secretary for Children and Family Services Wade Horn and Governor John Rowland of Connecticut, with the director of the Institute for Educational Sciences available for questions; and the second comprised of the author of a preschool language enrichment program, the chair of the National Head Start Association (NHSA), and the director of a not-for-profit child care development agency. Horn's testimony maintained that the President's proposal for offering states the opportunity to coordinate preschool programs with Head Start in exchange for meeting certain accountability requirements is not a block grant and assured the committee that states would be required to maintain the comprehensive nature of Head Start services, maintain their current level of state preschool funding, and explain how state and federal funds would be coordinated to promote school readiness. Governor Rowland outlined potential benefits of the President's plan. Questions for the first panel related to assessment of school readiness, states' commitment to preschool education, the role of and support for parent involvement, states' roles in setting program standards, and consequences of not submitting a plan. Testimony from the second panel focused on the impact of a language-rich curriculum on poor children, Head Start's successes, and recommendations for its future. The NHSA chair argued that goals for enhancing literacy/language program components and improving coordination could be met within the current program structure and questioned the wisdom of moving Head Start to the states in the middle of a major review of Head Start effectiveness. Questions focused on replicability of the language enrichment program, concerns that the Administration is trying to dismantle Head Start, current Head Start collaboration efforts, and states' commitment and ability to offer quality comprehensive programs within the climate of state economic shortfalls. The transcripts' ten appendices contain written statements and additional documents submitted for the record. (KB)

AB  - Title II of the FY2002 farm bill reauthorizes and amends most existing conservation programs and enacts several new ones through FY2007. The Congressional Budget Office estimate at the time of enactment that the farm bill would provide $9.2 billion in new mandatory budget authority above the April 2001 baseline through FY2007 for conservation programs. The Conservation Security Program is required to provide payments to producers who apply conservation practices on working lands, and other programs will retire grasslands, address surface and ground water conservation needs, and address conservation issues in certain regions. Funding will increase for the Environmental Quality Incentives Program, the Farmland Protection Program, and the Wildlife Habitat Incentive Program.

T1  - Opioid and non-opioid analgesics.
AN  - 73272434; 12751551
AB  - Opioids are the most potent analgesics. Toxicity results either from effects mediated by variation in affinity and intrinsic efficacy at specific opioid receptors or, rarely, from a direct toxic effect of the drugs. For some adverse effects, opioids exhibit a 'dual pharmacology' whereby these effects are usually observed only in pain-free individuals, and are not seen in patients in pain. Paracetamol, although generally very safe in therapeutic doses, displays potentially fatal toxicity in overdose requiring specific treatment. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are known to act by inhibiting COX-1 and COX-2 isoenzymes to various degrees. Toxicity arises primarily from undesired inhibition at these enzyme sites. Knowledge of the mechanism of action of these drugs is fundamental to the understanding of their potential for toxicity, the details of which are still emerging.

T1  - Evidence that Ca2+-release-activated Ca2+ channels in rat hepatocytes are required for the maintenance of hormone-induced Ca2+ oscillations.
AN  - 73030604; 12460123
AB  - Store-operated Ca(2+) channels in liver cells have been shown previously to exhibit a high selectivity for Ca(2+) and to have properties indistinguishable from those of Ca(2+)-release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels in mast cells and lymphocytes [Rychkov, Brereton, Harland and Barritt (2001) Hepatology 33, 938-947]. The role of CRAC channels in the maintenance of hormone-induced oscillations in the cytoplasmic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](cyt)) in isolated rat hepatocytes was investigated using several inhibitors of CRAC channels. 2-Aminoethyl diphenylborate (2-APB; 75 microM), Gd(3+) (1 microM) and 1-[beta-[3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propoxy]-4-methoxyphenethyl]-1H-imidazole hydrochloride (SK&F 96365; 50 microM) each inhibited vasopressin- and adrenaline (epinephrine)-induced Ca(2+) oscillations (measured using fura-2). The characteristics of this inhibition were similar to those of inhibition caused by decreasing the extracellular Ca(2+) concentration to zero by addition of EGTA. The effect of 2-APB was reversible. In contrast, LOE-908 [( R, S )-(3,4-dihydro-6,7-dimethoxy-isochinolin-1-yl)-2-phenyl- N, N -di[2-(2,3,4-trimethoxyphenyl)ethyl]acetamide mesylate] (30 microM), used commonly to block Ca(2+) inflow through intracellular-messenger-activated, non-selective cation channels, did not inhibit the Ca(2+) oscillations. In the absence of added extracellular Ca(2+), 2-APB, Gd(3+) and SK&F 96365 did not alter the kinetics of the increase in [Ca(2+)](cyt) induced by a concentration of adrenaline or vasopressin that induces continuous Ca(2+) oscillations at the physiological extracellular Ca(2+) concentration. Ca(2+) inflow through non-selective cation channels activated by maitotoxin could not restore Ca(2+) oscillations in cells treated with 2-APB to block Ca(2+) inflow through CRAC channels. Evidence for the specificity of the pharmacological agents for inhibition of CRAC channels under the conditions of the present experiments with hepatocytes is discussed. It is concluded that Ca(2+) inflow through CRAC channels is required for the maintenance of hormone-induced Ca(2+) oscillations in isolated hepatocytes.

T1  - Energy-efficiency in Housing for the Aged
AN  - 57280306; 200903995
AB  - This paper reports on a case study that showed that when medium density housing for the aged in a temperate climate was designed to be energy efficient, indoor temperatures in summer and winter were outside an acceptable temperature range. The findings indicate that the current benchmarks for energy efficient design do not account for the relatively small floor area of aged persons' housing and the concerns of the elderly in relation to large areas of glazing. Adapted from the source document.

T1  - Compliance with Regulations by "Swim-with-Dolphins" Operations in Port Phillip Bay, Victoria, Australia
AN  - 19946512; 5854266
AB  - Managing the activities of commercial wildlife viewing tends to involve either restricting the number of industry participants and/or regulating the activities or industry participants. We report on operator compliance with regulations regarding humans swimming with free-ranging bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops sp.) in Port Phillip Bay, Victoria, Australia. A total of 128 commercial dolphin-swim trips were studied between September 1998 and April 2000. Four permit conditions were investigated: approach type, swim time, time in proximity of dolphins, and presence of "fetal fold" calves. Results demonstrate noncompliance by operators to all of the four permit conditions studied. Compliance with temporal conditions was poorer than with other conditions. When conducting studies on the extent to which tourism affects cetaceans, investigators should consider whether tourist operations comply with existing regulations or guidelines.

T1  - Sensitive Immunoassays for Methyl-Parathion and Parathion and Their Application to Residues in Foodstuffs
AN  - 18931127; 5676694
AB  - Immunoassays, capable of detecting 0.05 mu g l super(-1) and 0.5 mu g l super(-1), respectively, have been developed to detect the organophosphate pesticides, methyl-parathion and parathion. Using haptens based on derivatization of the phosphate ester of the methyl and ethyl forms in the target compounds, there was selectivity in detection of methyl-parathion and parathion, respectively, using the two assays. Antisera to methyl-parathion detected parathion with 25-20% cross-reaction, while the parathion antisera detected methyl-parathion with 30-40% cross-reaction in water. The only other commonly-used agrochemical that cross-reacted in the assays was fenitrothion, the 3-methyl derivative of methyl-parathion. The assays were applied to the analysis of residues of these pesticides in water and several food matrices representative of different classes following the extraction of residues using simple procedures. Methanol extracts of most fruits and vegetables tested (high-moisture, low fat foods), including green and blue grapes, cauliflower and cabbage, could be analysed directly in the methyl-parathion assay, as could rice and basmati rice (low-moisture, low fat foods). Methanol extracts of butter and milk (high-fat foods) provided interference, but this was overcome by either further dilution or using acetonitrile as the extractant. A coagulating reagent was used to remove matrix interference from strongly coloured foods (tea and spinach). The parathion assay was subject to greater matrix interference, so it was preferable to analyse parathion in samples on plates coated with methyl-parathion antibody. With these foods, and with water samples, near-quantitative recoveries of spiked methyl-parathion or parathion were usually obtained, while with high-fat foods (milk and butter) and strongly coloured foods recoveries were poorer.

T1  - Sample Matrix Interference in Immunoassays for Organochlorine Residues in Plant-derived Foods and Some Strategies for Their Removal
AN  - 18926288; 5676695
AB  - Immunoassays for two groups of organochlorine insecticides, cyclodienes (endosulfan and heptachlor) and DDT were applied to the analysis of a diverse range of plant-derived foods. Water-miscible solvent extracts of high-moisture, low-fat foods such as cauliflower, cabbage, green and red blue grapes and tomato caused little or no interference with the assays, enabling methanol or acetonitrile extracts of the foods to be analysed directly by immunoassay, after dilution in assay buffer. Reasonable recoveries of spikes of these pesticides were obtained by direct analysis of extracts of spiked commodities, with reliable detection down to 0.025 mg kg super(-1) heptachlor or endosulfan and 0.1 mg kg super(-1) DDT in the commodities. Acetonitrile extracts of milk could also be analysed directly for DDT. In contrast, extracts of low moisture, non-fatty (rice) and fatty (cottonseed) food commodities interfered appreciably with the assays, reducing assay colour and detection sensitivity. Some simple cleanup methods were developed to remove interference and enable detection of spiked organochlorines in these foods. Extracts of coloured foods, such as tea, coffee and spinach caused similarly major interference in the assays, and a number of simple clean-up methods were ineffective in removing interference. However, use of an immunoaffinity chromatography method for cyclodienes enabled quantitative recoveries to be obtained in extracts of several of these foods when analysed by either ELISA or gas chromatography. Direct analysis was suited for screening purposes but immunoaffinity chromatography results were more quantitative. These results indicate that ELISAs can be applied under developing country conditions to a range of diverse foods, but that cleanup strategies need to be tailored to different types of foods.

AB  - In this paper a novel framework for the segmentation, 3D reconstruction and web distribution of vessel structures specifically tailored to the assessment of abdominal aortic aneurysms for endovascular surgery planning is presented. Deformable models are used for segmentation, while VRML97 and ECMA scripting are used to obtain models that are not only viewable from any VRML97 enabled browser, but that also allow users to perform, directly from standard web browsers, guided measurements of geometrical parameters, relevant to surgical planning.

T1  - Evidence to support using squat, semi-squat and stoop techniques to lift low-lying objects
AN  - 18724545; 5610068
AB  - Squat lifting is widely regarded as the 'correct' technique for lifting low- lying objects. However what evidence is there to support this technique? Further, is the evidence sufficient to justify teaching the technique? Until the last decade there was very little evidence to support the use of squat lifting of low-lying objects. Semi-squat lifting has been the centre of renewed interest in recent years. However there is less evidence for semi-squat, either for or against, than for stoop and squat techniques. Whilst it may provide a reasonable compromise between stoop and squat, it may be a mixture of the disadvantages of stoop and squat or even create new problems. Stoop lifting is commonly understood to be 'incorrect'. The vast majority of advice literature on lifting technique recommends against using stoop lifting. However some research results actually support the use of stoop lifting. This paper summarises the available evidence in support of using squat, semi-squat and stoop techniques to lift low-lying objects. Evidence is presented under headings of psychophysical, physiological, biomechanical, subjective, performance and clinical. No previous publication summarising this evidence could be found, and the results may be surprising to many.Relevance to industry

T1  - Arbuscular mycorrhizae in wheat and field pea crops on a low P soil: increased Zn-uptake but no increase in P-uptake or yield
AN  - 18715777; 5603793
AB  - Few field studies have investigated the contribution of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) to agricultural systems. In this study, the role of AMF in nutrition and yield of dryland autumn-sown wheat and field pea was examined through a 2-year crop sequence experiment on a red loam (Kandosol) in SE Australia. The soil was P-deficient and had low levels of root pathogens. In Year 1, levels of AMF were increased by growing subterranean clover or Linola super( TM) and decreased by growing canola or through maintenance of bare fallow with herbicides or tillage. In Year 2, hosts of AMF (wheat and field pea) and non-mycorrhizal canola were grown with 0 P or 20 kg ha super(-1) of P as superphosphate. Yields of all Year 2 crops were increased by P-fertiliser. Year 1 treatment led to 2-3 fold variation in colonisation by AMF at each P-level for Year 2 wheat and field pea. High colonisation did not correspond with greater crop growth, yield, or uptake of P, K, Ca, Cu or S in wheat or field pea. However, total crop Zn-uptake and grain Zn concentration were positively correlated with colonisation by AMF, due to enhanced Zn-uptake after anthesis. For wheat, high colonisation also corresponded with reduced Mn-uptake and lower grain Mn concentrations. In a glasshouse experiment using a second P-deficient Kandosol, inoculation of wheat with Glomus intraradices and Scutellospora calospora enhanced uptake of Zn and P when no P-fertiliser was applied. We conclude that high colonisation by AMF is unimportant for productivity of the major field crops grown on the Kandosol soils that occupy large areas of cropland in temperate SE Australia, even under P-limiting conditions. Investigation of the factors that control functioning of arbuscular mycorrhizae under field conditions, especially temperature, is required.

T1  - A mathematical model for the investigation of the Th1 immune response to Chlamydia trachomatis
AN  - 18673488; 5572405
AB  - Chlamydia are bacterial pathogens of humans and animals causing the important human diseases trachoma, sexually transmitted chlamydial disease and pneumonia. Of the human chlamydial diseases, sexually transmitted disease caused by Chlamydia trachomatis is a major public health concern. Chlamydia trachomatis replicates intracellularly and is characterised by a complex developmental cycle. Chlamydia is susceptible to humoral and cell-mediated immunity. Here we investigate the Th1 cell-mediated immune response against Chlamydia-infected cells as the response changes over the chlamydial developmental cycle. We suggest a form for the immune response over one developmental cycle by modelling the change in the number of intracellular chlamydial particles and assume peptides are presented in proportion to the number of replicating forms of chlamydial particles. We predict, perhaps non- intuitively, that persistent Chlamydia should be induced and forced not to return to the lytic cycle. We also suggest that extending the length of the time of the lytic cycle will effectively decrease the required efficacy of the Th1 response to eliminate the pathogen. We produce plots of active disease progression, control and clearance for varying levels of Th1 effectiveness.

T1  - Interpretation of otolith microstructure in the early life history stages of two temperate reef wrasses (Labridae)
AN  - 1665489792; 5717860
AB  - Notolabrus fucicola and N. tetricus larvae were reared in the laboratory at a constant temperature of 11 degree C; both species hatched after 4 days. Mortality was high throughout the post-hatching stage, with no N. tetricus surviving beyond 24 hours post-hatching. Notolabrus fucicola late yolk sac larvae showed no clear incremental structure in their sagittal otoliths up to 9 days post-hatch. The radius of the sagittae of these late yolk sac larvae corresponded with the radius of a non-incremental region around the primordium of sagittae taken from post-settlement juveniles of both species captured in the wild. Therefore, it is likely that the first increment is formed at or near yolk sac absorption in these species. Post-settlement juveniles of both species were exposed to oxytetracycline (OTC) and held in aquaria for up to 33 days. Post-OTC increment counts showed that increments were formed daily in the sagittae of both species.

T1  - Organophosphorus Pesticide Exposure of Urban and Suburban Preschool Children with Organic and Conventional Diets
AN  - 14653720; 10640792
AB  - Urine samples were collected from preschool children aged 25 yr whose diets consisted of either mostly organic or mostly conventional juices, fresh fruits, and fresh vegetables, and concentrations of organophosphate pesticide metabolites were measured and compared. The parents of the study children completed a food diary during the 2 d before and on the day of urine sampling, and they were also surveyed as to the use of pesticides in their residences. Results revealed that parents of children with conventional diets were more likely to have used pesticides than parents of children with organic diets, and the frequently reported pesticides included pyrethrins, glyphosate, cyfluthrin, imidachloprid, and fipronil. Of the five dialkylphosphate metabolites targeted, dimethylthiophosphate was the dominant one, found at detectable levels in 87% of all urine samples, while diethylthiophosphate was found almost as often. Children with organic diets, however, had significantly lower levels of total dimethyl metabolites in their urine than did children with conventional diets, and significance remained when participants who reported residential pesticide use were excluded. Calculation of individual dimethyl organophosphate pesticide doses revealed that doses for children with conventional diets were significantly higher than those for children with organic diets for oxydemeton-methyl, azinphos-methyl, phosmet, and malathion.

T1  - Association of Lung Function with Declining Ambient Air Pollution
AN  - 14652962; 10640793
AB  - Data from three consecutive regional cross-sectional surveys conducted in 199293, 199596, and 199899 on children living in East Germany were examined to assess the relationship between lung function and decreasing ambient air-pollution levels. The pulmonary function measurements included forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV sub(1)), and the ambient pollution indicators were sulfur dioxide and total suspended particulates. Results showed that, over the study period, mean annual ambient total suspended particulate and SO sub(2) concentrations declined dramatically. The prevalence of bronchitis, frequent colds, febrile infections, and shortness of breath declined within each of the surveys. Linear regression of the data revealed that the adjusted increase of the geometric mean for a 50 mu g/m super(3) decrease in total suspended particulate was 4.4% for FVC and 4.7% for a 100 mu g/m super(3) decrease of SO sub(2). The effects on FEV sub(1) were smaller than the effects on FVC, and none of the effects were significant.

T1  - Effects of PCB Exposure on Neuropsychological Function in Children
AN  - 14652343; 10640791
AB  - Results are summarized from a number of studies that have examined the effects of PCB exposure on neuropsychological function in children. The studies include the Dutch cohort, the Oswego cohort, the German cohort, the Farroe Islands cohorts, the Inuit cohort, the New Bedford cohort, the Collaborative Perinatal Project and Child Health and Development Study cohorts, the Yu-Cheng cohort, the Michigan cohort, and the North Carolina cohort. For each, exposure indices and neuropsychological measures used are described. Analysis of the findings reveals that only the study conducted in North Carolina has failed to find any association between PCB exposure and cognitive outcomes. Even when the levels of exposure are low, negative impacts on cognitive functioning are being reported.

T1  - A delta -Aminolevulinic Acid Dehydratase (ALAD) Polymorphism May Modify the Relationship of Low-Level Lead Exposure to Uricemia and Renal Function: the Normative Aging Study
AN  - 14650422; 10640788
AB  - Participants in the Normative Aging Study, which involved men aged 2180 yr from the Greater Boston, MA, area, were examined to assess the impact of delta -aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD) polymorphism on the relationship of lead levels in both blood and bone to uricemia and kidney dysfunction. The basic study protocol is outlined. The ALAD polymorphism in exon 4 was determined by polymerase chain reaction with restriction fragment length polymorphism. A significant linear relationship of serum uric acid with patella Pb was found among ALAD 1-2/2-2 genotype individuals who had patella Pb levels greater than an apparent threshold of 15 mu g/g. There was also a suggestion of a linear relationship of serum uric acid with patella Pb among ALAD 1-1 genotype individuals, but with a much higher apparent threshold. The difference between genotypes was striking, suggesting that ALAD status modifies the relationship between Pb and hyperuricemia, with ALAD 1-2/2-2 individuals having a higher risk for Pb-induced hyperuricemia. Bone Pb level was associated positively with serum creatinine, and creatinine clearance was associated significantly and negatively with bone Pb, especially patella Pb.

T1  - Long-Term Follow-Up of the Residents of the Three Mile Island Accident Area: 19791998
AN  - 14649552; 10640789
AB  - Data are provided from nearly 20 yr of follow-up of the overall and cause-specific mortality of the Three Mile Island (TMI) cohort, which consisted of 32,135 individuals who were enrolled initially in the 1979 TMI census. The mortality status for the cohort was updated annually through 1998. Individual dose estimates were modeled using the location of residence in relation to TMI and data on movements in and out of the area during the 10 d after the accident. Natural environmental background exposure estimates were also assigned based on direct measurements recorded with a scintillation detector. Based on statistical analysis of the mortality data, it was found that total mortality was elevated significantly for men and women living within 5 mi of the TMI facility when compared with a local population. The majority of the increase was attributed to deaths from heart disease. Overall, no consistent evidence was found that radioactivity released during the accident has had a significant impact on the mortality experience of the cohort. However, an increased risk of all lymphatic and hematopoietic tissue cancers in males for maximum gamma exposure and in females for background gamma exposure was found and should be studied further.

T1  - Development and Application of a Robust Speciation Method for Determination of Six Arsenic Compounds Present in Human Urine
AN  - 14649462; 10640782
AB  - Ammonium carbonate buffer was used to speciate six arsenic species in urine samples. The samples were analyzed by ion-exchange chromatography combined with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The As species included: arsenate, arsenite arsenocholine, arsenobetaine, monomethyl arsonic acid, and dimethyl arsinic acid. An acceptable performance was shown using cationic and anionic columns in series for complete baseline separation of the species. Linearity for the six species was demonstrated.

T1  - Estrogenic Activity of Styrene Oligomers After Metabolic Activation by Rat Liver Microsomes
AN  - 14648924; 10640787
AB  - Styrene oligomers in the presence and absence of a rat liver microsomal metabolic system were evaluated for their possible estrogenic activity. The compounds of interest included trans- and cis-1,2-diphenylcyclobutane, 1,3-diphenylpropane, 2,4-diphenyl-1-butene, 2,4,6-triphenyl-1-hexene, and 1 alpha -phenyl-4 beta -(1'-phenylethyl)tetralin, which were examined using the yeast estrogen screening assay and an estrogen-responsive element-luciferase reporter assay in the MCF-7 cell line. Results revealed that trans- and cis-1,2-diphenylcyclobutane, 1,3-diphenylpropane, and 2,4-diphenyl-1-butene were converted to metabolites with estrogenic activity by liver microsomal enzymes. trans-1-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-2-phenylcyclobutane was found to be a major active metabolite of trans-1,2-diphenylcyclobutane in the liver microsomal system, which was stimulated by pretreatment of rats with phenobarbital, suggesting the influence of cytochrome P4502B. A possible metabolic activation pathway of proestrogenic trans- and cis-1,2-diphenylcyclobutane is provided.

T1  - Biotransformations of Bisphenol A in a Mammalian Model: Answers and New Questions Raised by Low-Dose Metabolic Fate Studies in Pregnant CD1 Mice
AN  - 14648838; 10640785
AB  - Pregnant CD1 mice were administered a subcutaneous bisphenol A dose of 25 mu g/kg at day 17 of gestation, and the animals were then sacrificed at 0.5, 2, or 24 h after administration. The residue quantity and metabolic profiles associated with bisphenol A residues in tissues, including fetuses, were determined. In addition, pregnant mice were dosed subcutaneously with 50 mg/kg bisphenol A, and nonpregnant mice were dosed orally with 25 mu g/kg. The metabolic balance studies revealed that bisphenol A residues were mainly excreted through the digestive tract, and at 24 h, 21 and 6% of the radioactivity injected to pregnant mice had been excreted in feces and urine, respectively, while the digestive tract and its content accounted for an additional 45%. Measured blood radioactivity levels averaged 24 ng/g of bisphenol A equivalent in pregnant mice. The compound was adsorbed readily and distributed to ovaries, uterus, and fetuses. Fecal radioactivity was associated mainly with unchanged bisphenol A, although traces of metabolites were detected. Bisphenol A easily crossed the placental barrier and was present both in fetuses and in the reproductive tract of mothers.

T1  - Developmental Neurotoxicity Elicited by Prenatal or Postnatal Chlorpyrifos Exposure: Effects on Neurospecific Proteins Indicate Changing Vulnerabilities
AN  - 14648253; 10640783
AB  - Using timed-pregnant SpragueDawley rats, the effects of prenatal versus postnatal chlorpyrifos exposure on the development and regional targeting of myelin basic protein and the small and large neurofilament proteins were compared. Chlorpyrifos was dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide and injected subcutaneously in a volume of 1 ml/kg body weight. For prenatal exposure, dams were injected daily with doses of 140 mg/kg, and 24 h after the last injection, fetuses were removed and brains were dissected. For the postnatal exposure, animals were given 1 mg/kg daily on postnatal days 14, and for older animals, daily treatment with 5 mg/kg was given on postnatal days 1114. Results showed that either prenatal or postnatal chlorpyrifos exposure evoked abnormalities in the expression of neuroproteins associated with oligodendrocytes, with neuronal cell bodies, and with axonal projections. While prenatal or late postnatal treatment had significant effects, chlorpyrifos exposure in the immediate neonatal period did not. The results suggested that the critical window of vulnerability of the developing brain to chlorpyrifos extended from gestational exposure through later periods of development in which glial-neuronal interactions influenced brain architecture, circuitry, and function.

T1  - Histopathologic and Histochemical Biomarker Responses of Baltic Clam, Macoma balthica, to Contaminated Sydney Harbour Sediment, Nova Scotia, Canada
AN  - 14647845; 10640779
AB  - Baltic clams Macoma balthica were exposed to sediments collected at ten sites in Sydney Harbor in Nova Scotia, Canada, and examined histopathologically and histochemically to identify possible early indications of cytologic and physiologic alterations in tissues and organs. The sediments were contaminated with PAHs, PCBs, arsenic, mercury, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, molybdenum, nickel, silver, vanadium, and zinc. Results are presented in terms of the extent of digestive gland lesions, ovarian lesions, and testicular lesions, as well as effects on acid phosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase, gamma -glutamyl transpeptidase, cytochrome P4501A, and cytoplasmic glycogen. The most common histopathologic lesions detected were digestive cell and germ cell necroses and inflammations in both digestive gland and gonad, especially the female gonad. At least one digestive gland lesion and one female gonadal lesion correlated significantly with the organic sediment contaminants. Among the histochemical biomarkers, only the activity of acid phosphatase was correlated with the concentration of sediment heavy metals, PAHs, and PCBs.

AN  - 14647762; 10640780
AB  - An electromagnetic field exposure system was used to examine whether exposure of epidermal keratinocytes to electromagnetic fields would lead to induction of heat shock protein 27. A 1 gauss exposure was selected, based on the range of magnetic field exposures found in industrial and residential environments. After each exposure, phosphorylation, cellular redistribution, and total amount of heat shock protein 27 were assessed. Results showed that neither short- nor long-term exposure had any detectable effect on heat shock protein 27 phosphorylation in either normal keratinocytes or in the immortalized HaCaT keratinocyte line. Similarly, heat shock protein 27 translocation was not observed, nor was protein synthesis.

AN  - 14647510; 10640784
AB  - Twelve adult volunteers were given two dose levels of fenitrothion taken with food over 4 d, and levels were measured in blood and related to suppression of plasma and red blood cell cholinesterase levels. Results revealed high inter-individual variation for the lower dose of 0.18 mg/kg/d, but all subjects had detectable levels with the higher dose of 0.36 mg/kg/d on days 1 and 4. Peak blood fenitrothion levels were detected 14 h after dosing, and the half-life of the parent compound ranged 0.84.5 h. 3-Methyl-4-nitrophenol was detected in all but one of the 24-h urine specimens. No statistically significant trends were noted in mean plasma or red blood cholinesterase levels, and no clinically significant changes were recorded in blood pressure or pulse rate.

T1  - A Geographic Information System for Characterizing Exposure to Agent Orange and Other Herbicides in Vietnam
AN  - 14647401; 10640786
AB  - The development of a geographic information system (GIS) for characterizing exposure to agent orange and other herbicides in Vietnam is described. The approach involved a framework of records-based exposure reconstruction, the aim of which was to represent spatial and temporal relationships between instances of herbicide application and the locations of exposed individuals, military units, or other defined populations. The data utilized, including the herbicide spray data base, US troop location data, and Vietnam civilian population data, are detailed, as are the continuous exposure models and calculation of a herbicide exposure opportunity index for any entity whose location and residence dates are known based on historical reconstruction of spraying activities. Illustrations are provided of how the GIS can be used.

T1  - Nuclear Waste Transportation: Case Studies of Identifying Stakeholder Risk Information Needs
AN  - 14647316; 10640778
AB  - In the early 1990s, DOE recognized that its nuclear-waste cleanup strategy required a high level of public involvement, and in 1996, the National League of Women Voters entered into a cooperative agreement with DOE to facilitate the National Dialogue on Nuclear Material and Waste Deposition. While involving the public in waste-transportation decisions has been deemed a good idea, the technical complexities of the material are assumed to be a barrier to meaningful participation. In this study, a case study evaluation design was used to synthesize the results from three interactions to assess stakeholder information needs. The three cases involved community focus groups, participant surveys at the regional nuclear-waste transportation workshops held in 1997 in four regions across the US, and the development of visual tools to aid complex discussions that came out of a second round of dialogue with stakeholders convened by the League of Women Voters in 1998. Four common themes emerged: scientists need to work with stakeholders and tribes to develop creative methods to make complex information accessible to the lay public; underrepresented groups require specialized communication efforts to ensure participation; multiple approaches and iterative processes are needed to ensure that dialogue includes technological, stakeholder, and tribal expertise; and there is a need for transparent decision processes and outcomes.

T1  - Threshold of Trichloroethylene Contamination in Maternal Drinking Waters Affecting Fetal Heart Development in the Rat
AN  - 14647306; 10640781
AB  - Various concentrations of trichloroethylene were administered in drinking water to pregnant SpragueDawley rats, and on the last day of pregnancy, each dam was euthanized, and dams and fetuses were examined for gross organ abnormalities. The trichloroethylene exposure concentrations were 0, 2.5 ppb, 250.0 ppb, 1.5 ppm, and 1,100.0 ppm. No noncardiac congenital abnormalities were found, but there were significant differences between exposure groups both in the incidence of abnormal hearts and in the incidence of litters with one or more abnormal hearts. Probit analysis indicated that a trichloroethylene concentration of 2,692 ppm was required to produce abnormal hearts in 50% of the fetuses. The types of heart defects found included: absent coronary artery, enlarged coronary artery sinus, secondum-type arterial septal defects, aortic valve defect with fused leaflets creating aortic valvular stenosis, aortic valve defect with fenestrated leaflets, hypoplastic mitral valve annulus, hypoplastic tricuspid valve annulus, d-transposition, atrioventricular canal, and both membranous and muscular ventricular septal defects.

T1  - Organochlorines in Swedish Women: Determinants of Serum Concentrations
AN  - 14646277; 10640790
AB  - In a sample of 205 Swedish women aged 5074 yr, determinants of serum concentrations of seven PCB congeners and five chlorinated pesticides and metabolites were investigated. Blood samples were collected and analyzed, and questionnaires were used to obtain data on lifestyle/medical factors, as well as on diet. Age was found to be a significant determinant of serum concentrations of all studied organochlorines, with concentrations of PCBs and chlorinated pesticides increasing 1.84.3%/yr, on average. The concentrations of selected PCB congeners, p,p'-DDE, hexachlorobenzene, and beta -hexachlorocyclohexane were associated positively with body mass index, while PCB 156 and PCB 180 were associated negatively. Women with diabetes mellitus had significantly higher mean concentrations of hexachlorobenzene. A positive association was discerned between concentrations of PCB congeners and the intake of fatty fish, except for congeners 138 and 180. No associations were found between PCBs and organochlorines in blood and total fish consumption.

T1  - The incidence of Alternaria radicina on carrot seeds, seedlings and roots in South Australia
AN  - 1034830639; 17060513
AB  - Surveys of eight carrot growing regions in South Australia conducted from December 1998 to May 1999, showed that poor seedling establishment was associated with high levels of infection by Alternaria radicina. Seedling losses were widespread throughout the state and were most frequent between February and April 1999. Up to 47% of seedlings and 88% of mature plants on some properties were infected by A. radicina. Isolations from diseased plants showed that A. radicina attacked carrots at all stages, causing damping-off, and rotting of roots, crowns, seedlings, petioles, leaves and crowns of maturing carrots. Up to 70% of mature carrots with crown and shoulder infections were unmarketable. Of the 19 lines of commercial seed tested, 18 were infected with A. radicina with the highest infection level of 35% occurring on imported seed. A. radicina at levels between 0.2 and 14% was also found in 11 of 16 seed batches treated with thiram and/or iprodione. Isolates of A. radicina from seeds or infected seedlings were pathogenic to carrot seedlings and carrot discs. Alternaria dauci was also isolated from two seed samples, with levels of infection ranging from 0.1-0.3%, and on foliage in three of the eight carrot growing regions.

AB  - In the 107th Congress, debate over renewable energy programs focused on tax credits, incentives, budget, and provisions of the omnibus energy policy bill, H.R. 4. Both the House and Senate versions would have expanded the renewable energy production incentive and created a residential tax credit for some renewable energy equipment. For the DOE Renewable Energy program, the Consolidated Appropriations Resolution granted $422.3 million for FY2003, $39.6 million more than in the previous year. The FY2004 budget request for the program seeks $444.2 million and includes $48.1 million more for hydrogen research.

T1  - Sport Utility Vehicles, Mini-Vans, and Light Trucks: an Overview of Fuel Economy and Emissions Standards
AN  - 14650484; 10641190
AB  - As most sport utility vehicles, mini-vans, and pickups are classified as light trucks, they are regulated less stringently than passenger cars under the 1975 Energy Policy and Conservation Act for fuel economy standards and the Clean Air Act for emission standards. The differences arose because when the laws were enacted, light trucks were used differently and accounted for a much smaller share of the automobile market. Their share of the new automobile market has increased substantially over the last decade, and EPA has ruled that by model year 2009, emissions from all light trucks and passenger cars will be treated equally. DOT will also tighten fuel economy standards for light trucks starting in model year 2005.

T1  - Prokaryotes and the input of polyunsaturated fatty acids to the marine food web
AN  - 18857730; 5577084
AB  - The investigation of prokaryotes in aquatic ecology is often limited to their role in nutrient cycling and the degradation of organic matter. While this aspect of the microbial loop is undoubtedly important, further aspects of bacterial roles in marine food webs exist which have not been fully considered in light of recent research in related fields. The concept of bacteria providing essential nutrients may derive importance from two aspects of their role in the marine environment; firstly as a primary food source for omnivorous, sestonivorous and filtering benthic animals and secondly as components of the commensal microbial communities of marine animals. Many marine organisms lack the de novo ability to produce n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and hence rely on a dietary supply of PUFA. The issue of PUFA origin in the marine food web is particularly salient in light of recent research demonstrating the influence of PUFA levels on the efficiency of energy transfer between trophic levels. The assumption that microalgae provide the bulk of de novo PUFA production for all marine food webs must be actively reviewed with respect to particular microbial niches such as sea ice, marine animals and abyssal communities.

T1  - Clean Water Act and Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) of Pollutants
AN  - 14653881; 10641191
AB  - Under Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act, states are required to identify waters that are impaired by pollution and to establish a total maximum daily load (TMDL) of pollutants to ensure that water quality standards can be attained. The TMDL program has become controversial, partly because of requirements and costs now facing states to implement the 30-yr old provision. Costs will also be imposed on industries, cities, farmers, and others who may be required to use new pollution controls to meet TMDL requirements. EPA issued rules to revise and strengthen the program in 2000 but withdrew them in 2002 while it considers initiating an entirely new rule or other options.

AB  - Environmental cleanup, environmental compliance, pollution prevention, conservation, and environmental technology programs are administered by DOD. DOE is also responsible for managing defense nuclear waste and cleaning up contaminated nuclear weapons sites. The Bush Administration requested a total of $11.17 billion for these programs in FY2003, about $390 million more than the FY2002 funding level. The National Defense Authorization Act for FY2003 authorized a total of $1.32 billion for environmental cleanup at current and former military sites. The Department of Defense Appropriations Act for FY2003 provided $1.31 billion for cleanup at these sites, slightly less than authorized.

T1  - Preparing a new generation anaesthetic machine for patients susceptible to malignant hyperthermia.
AN  - 73098439; 12635397
AB  - Anaesthetic machines are prepared for use with patients who are susceptible to malignant hyperpyrexia (MH) by flushing with oxygen at 10 l/min for ten minutes to reduce the anaesthetic concentration to 1 part per million (ppm) or less. Anaesthetic workstations are now often used in place of traditional machines. Workstations have greater internal complexity, and it is not known if they can be made safe for susceptible patients by flushing with oxygen. We used a high sensitivity infrared gas analyser to measure the washout of isoflurane from five Datex-Ohmeda workstations. Measurements were then repeated with a patient breathing circuit. Isoflurane washout occurred in an exponential manner. The time to reach a concentration of 1 ppm at the fresh gas outlet was 17 +/- 7 minutes, and all machines had reached less than 2 ppm by ten minutes. The washout of isoflurane from the machine and patient breathing circuit was much slower than from the machine alone, with a concentration less than 2 ppm reached only after 30 minutes. We conclude that the Datex-Ohmeda workstation can be prepared for use in MH susceptible patients by flushing with oxygen at 10 l/min for ten minutes. Flushing of the patient breathing system is not straightforward, and we recommend using a clean T-piece circuit. If the circle system and ventilator are required for anaesthesia, we suggest using new breathing hoses, rebreathing bag and soda lime cartridge, and ventilating an artificial lung for 30 minutes with a fresh gas flow rate of 10 l/min and tidal volume of 1 litre.

T1  - A review of environmental toxicant analysis by using multidimensional gas chromatography and comprehensive GC.
AN  - 72987177; 12559594
AB  - The purpose of this review is to highlight the developments in coupled-column gas chromatography methods for qualitative analysis of selected environmental toxicants such as dioxin, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), etc. In particular, the new technique of GC x GC will be introduced, and its role, and the promise it offers to this field is discussed. The benefits of enhanced separation to quantitative analysis will be considered. In order to perform an accurate risk assessment, both the dose and biological effects of environmental toxicants have to be determined with a high degree of certainty. This is most often achieved by using chromatographic methods. Given the complexity of most environmental sample extracts, single-column gas chromatography is unable to fully resolve all the components of interest frequently leading to a positive bias in the reported concentrations. Advanced separation tools, such as multidimensional gas chromatography (MDGC), were investigated quite early and demonstrated improvements in separation. However, limitations in the number of target analytes that could be analyzed in a single run as well as insufficient robustness lead to a continued interest in alternative solutions. The parallel development of mass spectrometric identification and quantification strategies proved useful in many cases, although it frequently failed to provide positive identification of chromatographically unresolved isomeric compounds. More recently, comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC x GC) may offer a solution to that problem, especially because it offers enhanced resolution for complex mixtures containing trace level environmental toxicants.

T1  - Hydrocarbon-induced changes to metabolic and detoxification enzymes of the Australian crimson-spotted rainbowfish (Melanotaenia fluviatilis).
AN  - 72973863; 12539140
AB  - The toxicity of petroleum hydrocarbons to marine aquatic organisms has been widely investigated; however, the effects on freshwater environments have largely been ignored. Selected biomarkers were measured in a freshwater species, the crimson-spotted rainbowfish (Melanotaenia fluviatilis). Fish were exposed to either a water-accommodated fraction (WAF) of crude oil or a dispersed crude oil water-accommodated fraction (DCWAF) for 3 days and were depurated for 14 days. Generally, biomarkers were altered following the short-term exposures but recovered after 14 days of depuration. Metabolic enzymes measured in gill tissue were citrate synthase and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). As a result of WAF and DCWAF exposures, citrate synthase and LDH activities increased. Enzyme activities returned to control levels following depuration. Subsequent to the WAF exposure, hepatic ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) activity levels were higher than controls and they returned to control levels during depuration. For the DCWAF exposure, EROD was induced by a TPH (total petroleum hydrocarbons) concentration of 14.5 mg/L; however, after depuration the 14.5 mg/L TPH group had lower EROD activity than did controls. There were no changes in liver- to body-weight ratios or the histopathological organization of gill or liver tissues. As the majority of biomarkers returned to control levels after 14 days of depuration, rainbowfish were able to recover from short-term exposures to crude oil and dispersed crude oil.

T1  - Urinary Levels of Trichloroacetic Acid, a Disinfection By-Product in Chlorinated Drinking Water, in a Human Reference Population
AN  - 19397400; 5707907
AB  - Trichloroacetic acid (TCAA), a known mouse liver carcinogen and a possible human carcinogen, is found in chlorinated drinking water. We measured TCAA in archived urine samples from a reference population of 402 adults using isotope-dilution high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. TCAA was detected in 76% of the samples examined at concentrations ranging from < 0.5 mu g TCAA/L to more than 25 mu g/L; the 90th percentile concentration was 23 mu g/L (22 mu g TCAA/g creatinine); and the geometric mean and median concentrations were 2.9 pg/L (2.6 mu g/g creatinine) and 3.3 mu g/L (3.2 mu g/g creatinine), respectively. The frequency of detection of TCAA in urban areas was higher than in rural areas (p = 0.00007), and sex and place of residence (i.e., urban vs. rural) were found to have a significant interaction in modulating the levels of TCAA (p = 0.012). Urban residents had higher mean levels of TCAA (men, 5.3 mu g/L, 3.8 mu g/g creatinine; women, 2.9 mu g/L, 2.8 mu g/g creatinine) than did rural residents (men, 2.2 mu g/L, 1.7 mu g/g creatinine; women, 2.6 mu g/L, 2.7 mu g/g creatinine). The higher frequency of detection of TCAA in urban than in rural areas and higher levels of TCAA among urban than among rural residents may reflect the fact that urban residents use primarily chlorinated water from public water supplies, whereas those in rural areas are more likely to obtain water from private wells, which typically are not chlorinated.

T1  - A comparison of diatom community structure on natural and artificial substrata
AN  - 18963571; 5720634
AB  - Artificial substrata have been used in diatom studies for almost 100 years. However, concern still exists over whether diatom communities developing on artificial substrata accurately represent communities developing on natural substrata. This study compares the diatom communities colonising glass slides and clay tiles in two coastal dune lakes, and compares these communities to the naturally occurring communities in the epipelon, epilithon, and epiphyton. Both glass microslides and clay tiles, incubated for three separate periods ranging from 29 to 68 days, resulted in replicate substratum samples supporting similar diatom community compositions at each site. The degree of variation between artificial substrata communities at different sites, and between the two artificial substrata types, was generally no more than the degree of variation between communities on different types of natural substrata. Additionally, the composition of the diatom communities on the artificial substrata was representative of the community composition on the natural substrata. The effects of incubation period and siting are discussed.

T1  - Climate change and the potential distribution of an invasive alien plant: Acacia nilotica ssp. indica in Australia
AN  - 18911117; 5587173
AB  - 1. Acacia nilotica is a spinescent woody legume that has become highly invasive in several parts of the world, including Australia where it has been declared a weed of national significance. Understanding the likely potential distribution of this notorious plant under current and future climate scenarios will enable policy makers and land managers to prepare appropriate strategies to manage the invasion. 2. CLIMEX was used to synthesize available information from diverse sources to model the invasion potential of A. nilotica and gain insights into the climatic factors limiting its range expansion. The model identified areas at risk of further invasion so that early preventative or ameliorative measures could be undertaken in a timely manner. 3. The potential distribution of A. nilotica in Australia under current climatic conditions is vast, and far greater than the current distribution. 4. Global climate change is likely to increase markedly the potential distribution of A. nilotica in Australia, significantly increasing the area at risk of invasion. The factors of most importance are the expected increases in water-use efficiency of A. nilotica due to increased atmospheric CO sub(2) concentrations, allowing it to invade more xeric sites further inland, and increased temperatures, allowing it to complete its reproductive life cycle further southward (poleward). 5. Synthesis and applications. Simple paddock quarantine procedures may provide a means of limiting the range of A. nilotica within its potential distribution under current, as well as future, climate scenarios. The projected increased growth potential of A. nilotica throughout its current range suggests that if future management patterns result in seed pods lying unconsumed on the ground, heightened vigilance may be required to identify and eradicate new invasion foci arising from flood dispersal. The increased growth potential may also result in an alteration of the economic balance, in favour of harvesting A. nilotica for agroforestry or local bioenergy projects. A crucial component in containing this invasion will be raising public awareness of the invasion threat posed by A. nilotica, its identification and suitable control techniques.

T1  - Personal PM sub(2.5) Exposure and Markers of Oxidative Stress in Blood
AN  - 18879019; 5707909
AB  - Ambient particulate air pollution assessed as outdoor concentrations of particulate matter less than or equal to 2.5 mu m in diameter (PM sub(2.5)) in urban background has been associated with cardiovascular diseases at the population level. However, the significance of individual exposure and the involved mechanisms remain uncertain. We measured personal PM sub(2.5) and carbon black exposure in 50 students four times in 1 year and analyzed blood samples for markers of protein and lipid oxidation, for red blood cell (RBC) and platelet counts, and for concentrations of hemoglobin and fibrinogen. We analyzed protein oxidation in terms of gamma -glutamyl semialdehyde in hemoglobin (HBGGS) and 2-aminoadipic semialdehyde in hemoglobin (HBAAS) and plasma proteins (PLAAS), and lipid peroxidation was measured as malondialdehyde (MDA) in plasma. Median exposures were 16.1 mu g/m super(3) for personal PM sub(2.5) exposure, 9.2 mu g/m super(3) for background PM sub(2.5) concentration, and 8.1 x 10 super(-6)/m for personal carbon black exposure. Personal carbon black exposure and PLAAS concentration were positively associated (p < 0.01), whereas an association between personal PM sub(2.5) exposure and PLAAS was only of borderline significance (p = 0.061). A 3.7% increase in MDA concentrations per 10 mu g/m super(3) increase in personal PM sub(2.5) exposure was found for women (p < 0.05), whereas there was no significant relationship for the men. Similarly, positive associations between personal PM sub(2.5) exposure and both RBC and hemoglobin concentrations were found only in women (p < 0.01). There were no significant relationships between background PM sub(2.5) concentration and any of the biomarkers. This suggests that exposure to particles in moderate concentrations can induce oxidative stress and increase RBCs in peripheral blood. Personal exposure appears more closely related to these biomarkers potentially related to cardiovascular disease than is ambient PM sub(2.5) background concentrations.

T1  - Effects of Transplacental Exposure to Environmental Pollutants on Birth Outcomes in a Multiethnic Population
AN  - 18875668; 5707962
AB  - Inner-city, minority populations are high-risk groups for adverse birth outcomes and also are more likely to be exposed to environmental contaminants, including environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and pesticides. In a sample of 263 nonsmoking African-American and Dominican women, we evaluated the effects on birth outcomes of prenatal exposure to airborne PAHs monitored during pregnancy by personal air sampling, along with ETS estimated by plasma cotinine, and an organophosphate pesticide (OP) estimated by plasma chlorpyrifos (CPF). Plasma CPF was used as a covariate because it was the most often detected in plasma and was highly correlated with other pesticides frequently detected in plasma. Among African Americans, high prenatal exposure to PAHs was associated with lower birth weight (p = 0.003) and smaller head circumference (p = 0.01) after adjusting for potential confounders. CPF was associated with decreased birth weight and birth length overall (p = 0.01 and p = 0.003, respectively) and with lower birth weight among African Americans (p = 0.04) and reduced birth length in Dominicans (p < 0.001), and was therefore included as a covariate in the model with PAH. After controlling for CPF, relationships between PAHs and birth outcomes were essentially unchanged. In this analysis, PAHs and CPF appear to be significant independent determinants of birth outcomes. Further analyses of pesticides will be carried out. Possible explanations of the failure to find a significant effect of PAHs in the Hispanic subsample are discussed. This study provides evidence that environmental pollutants at levels currently encountered in New York City adversely affect fetal development.

T1  - Risk of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and Prediagnostic Serum Organochlorines: beta -Hexachlorocyclohexane, Chlordane/Heptachlor-Related Compounds, Dieldrin, and Hexachlorobenzene
AN  - 18875409; 5707911
AB  - Increases in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) incidence and mortality rates during the past few decades remain largely unexplained. Studies suggest that organochlorine pesticides may contribute to an increased risk of NHL. In 1974, serum samples were obtained from 25,802 participants in the Campaign Against Cancer and Stroke in Washington County, Maryland (USA), and cryopreserved for future study. We measured prediagnostic levels of chlordane, lindane ( gamma -hexachlorocyclohexane), beta -hexachlorocyclohexane, transnonachlor, heptachlor, heptachlor epoxide, oxychlordane, dieldrin, and hexachlorobenzene in serum samples of 74 cases of NHL and 147 matched controls. Previously, we found an association between NHL and serum levels of total PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls), but not DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) and related compounds. In this instance, there was no evidence of an association between NHL risk and serum levels of any of the individual lipid- and recovery-corrected organochlorines that we evaluated, nor of the summed chlordane-related compounds (transnonachlor, heptachlor, heptachlor epoxide, oxychlordane). These findings do not support the hypothesis that the organochlorine compounds included in this study are strongly linked to the development of NHL. The possibility of a weak association cannot be excluded by these data.

T1  - Modification of Immune Function through Exposure to Dietary Aflatoxin in Gambian Children
AN  - 18819510; 5708191
AB  - Aflatoxins are immunotoxins that frequently contaminate staple foods in The Gambia and other parts of sub-Saharan Africa, resulting in high exposure throughout life. Impaired infant immune system development may be a key predictor of mortality from infectious disease. In this study we aimed to determine the effect of dietary aflatoxin exposure on a number of immune parameters in Gambian children. A cohort of 472 Gambian children 6-9 years of age was recruited. Serum aflatoxin-albumin (AF-alb) adducts were analyzed to provide a measure of exposure. Immune parameters included secretory IgA (sIgA) in saliva, cell-mediated immunity (CMI), determined using the CMI multitest where test antigens are applied to the skin, and antibody responses to both rabies and pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccines. Birth weight, current anthropometry, and micronutrient status were also recorded. AF-alb adducts were detected in 93% of the children (geometric mean level 22.3 pg/mg; range 5-456 pg/mg). AF-alb level was strongly influenced by month of sampling. In a multivariable analysis, sIgA was markedly lower in children with detectable AF-alb compared with those with nondetectable levels [50.4 mu g/mg protein (95% confidence interval [CI] 48.0-52.8) and 70.2 mu g/mg protein (95% CI 61.1-79.2), respectively; p < 0.0001]. Antibody response to one of four pneumococcal serotypes, but not rabies vaccine, was weakly associated with higher levels of AF-alb. There was no association between CMI responses to test antigens and AF-alb. These data confirm that children in rural Gambia are frequently exposed to high levels of aflatoxin. The study provides evidence that sIgA in saliva may be reduced because of dietary levels of aflatoxin exposure. Given the high burden of infection-related mortality in West Africa, further investigation of the immune effects of aflatoxin exposure in children is merited.

T1  - Prevalence of Non-Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus and Related Vascular Diseases in Southwestern Arseniasis-Endemic and Nonendemic Areas in Taiwan
AN  - 18819298; 5707908
AB  - There is evidence indicating that ingestion of arsenic may predispose the development of diabetes mellitus in arsenic-endemic areas in Taiwan. However, the prevalence of diabetes and related vascular diseases in the entire southwestern arseniasis-endemic and nonendemic areas remains to be elucidated. We used the National Health Insurance Database for 1999-2000 to derive the prevalence of non-insulin-dependent diabetes and related vascular diseases by age and sex among residents in southwestern arseniasis-endemic and nonendemic areas in Taiwan. The study included 66,667 residents living in endemic areas and 639,667 in nonendemic areas, all greater than or equal to 25 years of age. The status of diabetes and vascular diseases was ascertained through disease diagnosis and treatment prescription included in the reimbursement claims of clinics and hospitals. The prevalence of non-insulin-dependent diabetes, age- and gender-adjusted to the general population in Taiwan, was 7.5% (95% confidence interval, 7.4-7.7%) in the arseniasis-endemic areas and 3.5% (3.5-3.6%) in the nonendemic areas. Among both diabetics and nondiabetics, higher prevalence of microvascular and macrovascular diseases was observed in arseniasis-endemic than in the nonendemic areas. Age- and gender-adjusted prevalence of microvascular disease in endemic and nonendemic areas was 20.0% and 6.0%, respectively, for diabetics, and 8.6% and 1.0%, respectively, for nondiabetics. The corresponding prevalence of macrovascular disease was 25.3% and 13.7% for diabetics, and 12.3% and 5.5% for nondiabetics. Arsenic has been suggested to increase the risk of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and its related micro- and macrovascular diseases.

T1  - Defining the Neutral Zone of sheep intervertebral joints during dynamic motions: an in vitro study
AN  - 18749659; 5627400
AB  - Objective. To make an experimental assessment of the Neutral Zone of intervertebral joints during dynamic spinal motion in flexion/extension, lateral bending and axial rotation and to develop a criterion for its definition. Design. Dynamic mechanical testing of sheep intervertebral joints with a six-degree of freedom robotic facility under position control. Background. The Neutral Zone is defined as a region of no or little resistance to motion in the middle of an intervertebral joint's range of movement. Previous studies have used quasi-static loading regimes that do not model physiological activity. This study simulated physiological movements using a robotic testing facility to address this issue. Methods. Five spines from mature sheep were used and three motion segments were tested from each spine. The robotic facility enabled the testing regime to be defined for each individual joint based on its geometry. The joints were tested by cycling through the full range of physiological movement in flexion/extension, lateral bending and axial rotation. Results. A Neutral Zone was found to exist during dynamic movements only in flexion/extension. The results suggested that a Neutral Zone does not exist in lateral bending or axial rotation. The zygapophysial joints were shown to be significant in determining the mechanics of the intervertebral joints as their removal increased the Neutral Zone in all cases. A new criterion for defining the size of the Neutral Zone during dynamic motion was proposed and its implications for spinal movements in life discussed. Conclusions. A Neutral Zone exists in flexion/extension during dynamic movements of intervertebral joints and is a feature of the natural range of joint motion. This has important implications for the muscular control of the spine consisting of several intrinsically lax joints stacked on one another.

T1  - Comparison of Clinical and Dynamic Knee Function in Patients with Anterior Cruciate Ligament Deficiency
AN  - 18708837; 5586322
AB  - Background: Whether passive measures of isokinetic muscle strength deficits and knee laxity are related to the dynamic function of the anterior cruciate ligament-deficient knee remains unclear. Hypotheses: Arthrometer measurements are not predictive of peak external knee flexion moment (net quadriceps muscle moment), isokinetic quadriceps muscle strength correlates with peak external knee flexion moment (net quadriceps muscle moment), and isokinetic hamstring muscle strength correlates with peak external knee extension moment (net flexor muscle moment). Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: Gait analysis was used to assess dynamic function during walking, jogging, and stair climbing in 44 subjects with unilateral anterior cruciate ligament deficiency and 44 control subjects. Passive knee laxity and isokinetic quadriceps and hamstring muscle strength were also measured. Results: Arthrometer measurements did not correlate with peak external flexion or extension moments in any of the activities tested or with isokinetic quadriceps or hamstring muscle strength. Test subjects also had a significantly reduced peak external flexion moment during all three jogging activities and stair climbing compared with the control subjects and this was correlated with significantly reduced quadriceps muscle strength. Conclusions: Absolute knee laxity difference did not correlate with dynamic knee function as assessed by gait analysis and should not be used as a sole predictor for the outcome of treatment. Patients with greater than normal strength in the anterior cruciate ligament-deficient limb performed low- and high-stress activities in a more normal fashion than those with normal or less-than-normal strength.

T1  - Marine bacterial organisation around point-like sources of amino acids
AN  - 18668485; 5563310
AB  - To better understand the trigger for and use of motility in marine bacterial chemotaxis, specific (amino acids) chemical stimuli were used to test the effect on bacterial speed and reorientation. An assay system was developed to analyse bacterial behavioural responses to point-like nutrient sources (beads 10-40 mu m). The marine bacteria Pseudoalteromonas haloplanktis, Shewanella putrefaciens, Deleya marina, the enteric bacterium Escherichia coli and an enriched assemblage of marine bacteria were used in the assay. E. coli responded to the amino acids (e.g. serine, leucine) in this assay in a manner similar to the classical capillary plating method, and accumulated near the attractants using biased random walks and maximum speeds of less than 30 mu m s super(-1). The marine bacteria travelled more than 100 mu m s super(-1) and reversed direction instead of randomly tumbling to reorientate. Marine bacteria also showed different chemotactic responses. The enriched marine community and P. haloplanktis were repelled by serine while leucine was an attractant for all three marine isolates. More importantly marine bacteria formed band specific distances (>20 mu m) away from individual beads. The bands were composed of free-swimming bacteria rather than bacteria attached to the beads or chamber surfaces. The bands' formation time (25-180 s) and width (5-20 mu m) varied depending on the bacterial strains and attractant. This variation in chemotactic responses by the marine isolates may reflect adaptations to specific ecological niches of bacterioplankton in the ocean. However, band forming ability by marine bacteria has still only been reported in experimental studies, nutrient coupling between nutrient sources and bands of chemotactic marine bacteria have yet to be detected in the natural environment. The fragility of the bands, a clear association between free-swimming bacteria and nutrient, indicates the difficulty and potentially sets limits for finding microzones of bacteria around particles in the open ocean.

Contacts between these groups and sexual differences in dispersal behaviour interacted with the landscape mosaic at a number of spatial scales to produce a hierarchically structured population with four levels of organization: (1) groups, which were the basic breeding unit; (2) social neighbourhoods, where group interactions were frequent, and male dispersal and female postnatal and breeding dispersal occurred; (3) local population neighbourhoods, which contained social neighbourhoods between which female natal dispersal was frequent; and (4) metapopulations, which contained local population neighbourhoods between which dispersal was infrequent. The boundaries of these structural units, with the exception of the group, were not discrete and were influenced by the structure of the landscape they occupied. Interactions between groups occupying different patches were rare, and the frequency of group interactions was lower in small patches. Male dispersal was restricted to groups within the same patch or in patches less than 1 km apart. Therefore, decreasing patch size and increasing patch isolation resulted in smaller social neighbourhoods. Males generally dispersed to smaller groups and these dispersals may have enhanced the productivity of these groups by increasing their size. Therefore, habitat loss and fragmentation are likely to disrupt social neighbourhoods resulting in lower levels of social interaction and reduced productivity. The size and configuration of local populations were dependent on female natal dispersal, which in turn depended on landscape connectivity. White-browed Babblers used remnant vegetation in preference to other landscape elements when dispersing, but were not dependent solely on corridors. The permeability to dispersal of the boundaries between remnants and agricultural vegetation was dependent on patch configuration. Changes in boundary permeability were found to alter connectivity between habitat patches in a complex and asymmetric manner. Therefore, it is essential to consider landscape connectivity in a spatially explicit context for species that use some elements of the landscape mosaic in preference to others when dispersing. Habitat loss and fragmentation impose a complex set of changes, at a number of different scales, to processes that affect aspects of a species' life history. In order to manage species in fragmented agricultural landscapes it is necessary to understand the hierarchical structure of their populations, and how processes affect the different organizational levels within this structure.

T1  - One hundred fifty-year record of lead isotopes in Antarctic snow from Coats Land
AN  - 16166485; 5648673
AB  - A record of the concentrations of Pb and Ba and the isotopic composition of Pb has been established for a remote, low accumulation site in the Atlantic sector of Antarctica (Coats Land) by means of thermal ionization mass spectrometry. The snow samples cover the period similar to 1840 to 1990. They were taken from the walls of a pit to a depth of 7.8 m and as a core to 16 m; ultraclean procedures were used. Detailed laboratory subsampling provided both long-term (secular scale) and short-term (intra-annual) Pb, Ba, and Pb isotope variations. The results show that there have been significant variations in Pb concentrations (range, 0.1 to 9.3 pg/g) and isotopic composition (range, 1.096 to 1.208 for super(206)Pb/ super(207)Pb ratio) since the 1840s. The data show evidence of pollution for this metal in Antarctica as early as the 1880s. Several Pb maxima were observed: the first at the beginning of the 20th century and the last in the 1970s to 1980s, with a clear decrease during recent years. Although the last maximum is clearly linked to the rise and fall in the use of leaded gasoline in the Southern Hemisphere, especially in South America, the reason for the first remains uncertain. The pattern of changing isotopic composition of Pb reveals the changing origin and character of the anthropogenic inputs to Antarctica. An interesting feature in this pattern is the relatively large contribution of unradiogenic Pb in the similar to 1890s, possibly originating from Australia. Another interesting feature is the pronounced intra-annual variation in the isotopic composition of Pb, which illustrates the complexity of the changing inputs of Pb to Antarctica.

T1  - Determination of average emission factors for vehicles on a busy road
AN  - 16143643; 5547604
AB  - In this paper, the CALINE4 software package, designed for calculation of concentrations of carbon monoxide near a busy road, is adapted for the analysis of aerosols of fine and ultra-fine particles, generated by vehicles on the road. A scaling procedure of the CALINE4 package is developed and justified. A new efficient method of determination of the average emission factor for fine particle emission from the average fleet (one average vehicle) on a given road is also developed. This method is based on measurements of the average particle number concentration at just one point near the road. An example of a specific road in the Brisbane area, Australia, is considered. The average emission factor for vehicles on this road is calculated to be ~4.5x10 super(14) particle/vehicle/mile. The obtained scaling coefficient is shown to be correct, and the procedure is directly applicable for the analysis of an arbitrary road with different types of vehicles and their average speed. Good agreement between the experimental results and the predicted theoretical dependencies of concentration on distance from the road clearly confirms the applicability of the CALINE4 package for the analysis of propagation of fine particle aerosols from a busy road. Statistical analysis of the experimental and theoretical results demonstrates that the concentration of fine and ultra-fine particles approximately reduces as a power law in distance from the road.

T1  - Food Allergy: an Overview
AN  - 14645104; 10639189
AB  - Type I hypersensitivity allergic reactions to foods are those that are immunoglobulin E-mediated and can range from cutaneous symptoms to potentially life-threatening situations. An overview is provided of the classic type I hypersensitivity, looking briefly at the diagnosis of food allergy, the natural history of food allergy, and the limited treatment options. These allergies, which generally present in infancy and usually resolve by school age, include peanut, tree nuts, fish, and shellfish, as well as milk, soy, and eggs. Although promising immunotherapy interventions are being developed, the only available therapy currently is avoidance of the problem food and self-treatment with auto-injectable epinephrine.

T1  - Perchloroethylene-Contaminated Drinking Water and the Risk of Breast Cancer: Additional Results from Cape Cod, Massachusetts, USA
AN  - 14645053; 10639181
AB  - Using cases composed of women diagnosed with breast cancer from 1987 through 1993 who were permanent residents of eight Cape Cod, MA, towns and a control group composed of similarly aged women from the same area, the association between perchloroethylene-contaminated drinking water and the risk of breast cancer was examined. Relative exposure to perchloroethylene-contaminated water was estimated using an algorithm that accounted for specific information regarding the water pipe that supplied each subject's home. The locations, installation dates, and diameters of the pipes in all public water supply systems in the study area were determined from maps. Women were considered exposed if they had at least one exposed residence during the relevant time period. Results suggested that women with the highest relative delivered dose of perchloroethylene-contaminated drinking water had small to moderate increases in the risk of breast cancer compared with unexposed women.

T1  - Assessment of the Allergic Potential of Food Protein Extracts and Proteins on Oral Application Using the Brown Norway Rat Model
AN  - 14643783; 10639191
AB  - Research is being conducted by a number of groups to develop suitable animal models for assessing food allergies in humans. Here, information is reviewed on the progress being made in a new rat model for such testing, involving the Brown Norway rat. Results are presented from oral sensitization studies of various antigen sources, including food protein extracts and proteins. The oral sensitization protocol is outlined, as well as the challenge reactions in the areas of respiratory function, blood pressure, and gut permeability. The results suggest that oral exposure to food proteins can illicit a significant immunoglobulin E response that can be used to differentiate among proteins with the ability to induce allergic sensitization.

T1  - Maternal Blood Lead Concentration, Diet During Pregnancy, and Anthropometry Predict Neonatal Blood Lead in a Socioeconomically Disadvantaged Population
AN  - 14643082; 10639185
AB  - In Albany, NY, blood lead concentrations, anthropometry, and diet were examined in each trimester of pregnancy in women from lower socioeconomic circumstances and related to blood Pb levels in neonates. During each prenatal interview, maternal diet for the month prior was assessed using a modified version of the National Cancer Institute Food Questionnaire. Overall, blood Pb concentrations were low, with only one mother and no newborns having a blood Pb level >10 mu g/dl. The strongest predictors of newborn blood Pb concentration were maternal blood Pb concentration in each trimester and at delivery. Greater rates of gain in maternal weight and arm circumference during pregnancy were associated with lower blood Pb concentrations in newborns. Multivariate analysis revealed significant negative relationships between neonatal blood Pb and maternal intakes of iron and calcium, but not zinc, protein, or fat, and among the nutrients, maternal Fe intake had the largest impact.

T1  - Nonmurine Animal Models of Food Allergy
AN  - 14643016; 10639192
AB  - The predominant theory regarding food allergy is that there is an adverse reaction to exogenous food proteins or protein fragments that escape lumen hydrolysis and become available for exposure to gastrointestinal-associated lymphoid tissues. The use of animals models to investigate food allergy is examined. While no validated animal model is currently available for determining the sensitizing threshold of food allergens that can be extrapolated to or predictive of the human allergic response, such models are being used to assess different mechanisms involving immunoglobulin E-mediated responses. The criteria for animal models are outlined, and two nonmurine animal models, the atopic dog model and the neonatal swine model, are described, which closely mimic allergic diseases in humans.

T1  - Effects of Concentrated Ambient Particles on Heart Rate and Blood Pressure in Pulmonary Hypertensive Rats
AN  - 14642872; 10639177
AB  - Male SpragueDawley rats were injected ip with monocrotaline to cause them to develop pulmonary hypertension and then exposed to concentrated ambient particles or to filtered air, and effects on heart rate and blood pressure were monitored. The animals were exposed to concentrated particles 6 h/d for 3 consecutive days and then rested for 4 d, with the cycle repeated three times. During particle exposure, heart rate decreased initially and then gradually increased to maximum during the eleventh hour from the beginning of the exposure. Similar results were observed in terms of blood pressure.

T1  - Identification of Antigenic Epitopes on Human Allergens: Studies with HLA Transgenic Mice
AN  - 14642847; 10639193
AB  - Human leucocyte antigen (HLA) molecules, which are encoded by highly polymorphic gene families located on chromosome 6p, play an important role in the initiation of immune responses to allergens. The production and characterization of HLA transgenic mice are described, which are being developed to study the genetic and molecular basis of allergic response. The identification of HLA class II restricted epitopes of allergens in transgenic mice is described and discussed, citing specific study results, and HLA transgenic mice are described as a model for allergen-induced asthma. The findings reported to date suggest that HLA class II transgenic mice may be useful for finding new immune-based therapies for allergic asthma.

T1  - Ethical Perspectives for Public and Environmental Health: Fostering Autonomy and the Right to Know
AN  - 14642384; 10639175
AB  - In risk communication, the right to know requires communication with the public through one-way and/or two-way communication, depending upon the situation. Here, the right to know is placed within the context of public and environmental health ethics by developing a perspective of relational ethics grounded in fostering autonomy as the basis for the right to know, environmental justice, and community-based discourse. Consequential ethics, deontological ethics, and environmental justice are considered, arguing that public health and environmental ethics need to be grounded in particular human relationships and our ongoing relationship with the environment. The perspective of fostering autonomy through mutually respectful relationships is discussed in the areas of disaster planning and emergency response, and food contamination.

T1  - Aggressive Behavior and Serum Testosterone Concentration During the Maturation Process of Male Mice: the Effects of Fetal Exposure to Bisphenol A
AN  - 14641267; 10639182
AB  - Pregnant CD-1 mice were treated with bisphenol A dissolved in corn oil at concentrations of 0, 2, or 20 ng/g/d on gestational days 1117, and aggressive behavior and hormonal changes were monitored in male offspring. Relative testis weight was significantly lower than controls in male offspring of dams treated with bisphenol A. The treated mice had high aggression scores at eight weeks of age, after which time aggression diminished, while contact time in the control mice increased gradually from weeks eight to 12. Serum testosterone concentrations were lower at 12 weeks of age in both exposed groups compared to controls, but the differences were not significant. No significant correlation was discerned between contact time and testosterone concentration at eight weeks of age in either of the control groups or in controls.

T1  - Residential Proximity to Traffic and Adverse Birth Outcomes in Los Angeles County, California, 19941996
AN  - 14641092; 10639187
AB  - In Los Angeles County, CA, residential proximity to heavy-traffic roadways was examined in relation to the risk of term low birth weight and preterm birth in infants born to women over the period 199496. A distance-weighted traffic density value was calculated for each subject using annual average daily traffic counts, and ambient air-pollution data were obtained to determine the annual average background concentrations of carbon monoxide, particulates, ozone, and nitrogen dioxide. Results revealed an approximately 1020% increase in risk of term low birth weight and preterm birth in infants born to women living close to heavy-traffic roadways. Stronger effects were observed for women whose third trimesters fell during fall/winter months, who lived in high background air-pollution areas, and/or who lived in more impoverished areas.

T1  - Mitotic recombination is an important mutational event following oxidative damage.
AN  - 72946877; 12517408
AB  - The mutagenic effects of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), a source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been determined in human lymphocytes. T-lymphocytes mutated at the autosomal HLA-A locus on chromosome 6 have been clonally isolated (N = 2097 clones) and the molecular basis of each clonal mutation characterised as due to intragenic, deletion or mitotic recombination mutation. H(2)O(2) caused a dose dependent increase in mutation frequency. There was no significant increase in the frequency of intragenic mutations. Mitotic recombination (MR) was responsible for 87% of the increase in mutation frequency induced by H(2)O(2) and gene deletion was responsible for 13%. MR results in loss of heterozygosity (LOH) distal to the recombination site. It is known that LOH is important in the initiation and progression of cancer. These results suggest that the biologically important consequence of some ROS may be LOH as a by-product of recombination repair. They also suggest that if our observations apply to ROS generally, then many of the mutations which accumulate with ageing or which are observed in cancer may be due to factors other than ROS.

T1  - High intensity anthropogenic sound damages fish ears.
AN  - 85414247; pmid-12558299
AB  - Marine petroleum exploration involves the repetitive use of high-energy noise sources, air-guns, that produce a short, sharp, low-frequency sound. Despite reports of behavioral responses of fishes and marine mammals to such noise, it is not known whether exposure to air-guns has the potential to damage the ears of aquatic vertebrates. It is shown here that the ears of fish exposed to an operating air-gun sustained extensive damage to their sensory epithelia that was apparent as ablated hair cells. The damage was regionally severe, with no evidence of repair or replacement of damaged sensory cells up to 58 days after air-gun exposure.

T1  - Relationship between 3D behavior of the unilaterally paralyzed larynx and aerodynamic vocal function.
AN  - 85365858; pmid-12701757
AB  - We used multi-slice helical computerized tomography (MSHCT) to evaluate the 3D characteristics of the laryngeal structures in patients with unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP) during phonation, and compared the results with those obtained using an aerodynamic vocal function test.The subjects were 37 patients with UVFP. The region over the larynx was scanned during quiet phonation and again during inspiration using MSHCT, and 3D endoscopic and coronal reconstruction images were produced. Maximum phonation time (MPT) and mean airflow rate (MFR) during phonation were measured.During phonation, the affected fold was thinner than the healthy fold in 30 subjects and located at a higher position than the healthy fold in 21 subjects. Abduction or thinning of the affected fold during phonation (paradoxical movement) was seen in seven subjects. MFR was significantly greater when the affected fold was thinner than the healthy fold during phonation, and MPT was significantly shorter when the affected fold showed paradoxical movement. Over-adduction of the healthy fold during phonation was present in 15 subjects. There were no significant differences in MPT or MFR between subjects with and without over-adduction.The combination of MSHCT endoscopic and coronal reconstruction images enables the 3D characteristics of the unilaterally paralyzed larynx to be visualized during phonation, and some of these characteristics are significantly correlated with vocal function in patients with UVFP.

T1  - Oral Somesthesis and Taste
AN  - 85299210; cs-276409
AB  - The long-term goal of this project is to understand how the somesthetic and gustatory systems function together to produce oral sensations and flavors This goal will be pursued by taking advantage of three recent psychophysical findings that provide novel insights into how somatosensory stimulation can influence taste. First, studies will be conducted to investigate the phenomenon of thermal taste, in which tastes can be induced by temperature alone. Of particular interest are sources of individual and spatial variation in thermal taste, interactions between thermal taste and chemical taste, and the spatial and temporal characteristics of thermal tastes as they relate to the sensitivity to warmth and cold. Second, the induction and perception of 'phantom' tastes caused by brief bouts of cold stimulation on the front of the tongue will be investigated. These cold-induced phantoms (CIPs) are perceived after rather than during cold stimulation, and are localized away from rather than at the site of cooling. Experiments are proposed to test the hypothesis that CIPs, which reversibly mimic clinical dysgeusias, arise when putative tonic inhibition within and between oral sensory systems is interrupted by cold-block. Third, preliminary observations indicate that capsaicin, the prototypical 'trigeminal' irritant, can evoke significant bitterness in the circumvallate region of the tongue, and that both sensory irritation and perception of warmth are much weaker there than on the tongue tip. Experiments will investigate the possibility that some glossopharyngeal neurons that contribute to perception of bitterness are sensitive to irritants, and more generally, that the relationship between somesthesis and taste is different on the back of the tongue, where both kinds of stimulation are mediated solely by the glossopharyngeal nerve. Overall, these studies will advance our understanding of oral sensory processing in humans as well as provide data on sensory interactions that may be helpful in understanding the source of certain types of oral sensory pathologies (e.g., dysgeusias).

T1  - CROSS MODAL EQUIVALENCE OF SPATIAL DATA DISPLAYS
AN  - 85298479; cs-276874
AB  - DESCRIPTION (Adapted from Applicant?s abstract): Perceivers can map ortranslate a dimension from one sense modality to another, despite cleardifferences in the inherent ways that these modalities (vision, hearing, touch)process events occurring over time and in space. One example of this is in thedisplay of spatial data, such as line graphs, scatter plots, andtwo-dimensional shapes. Although usually presented visually, alternativedisplays in other modalities can sometimes successfully present suchinformation, implying performance equivalencies in informational structuresacross modalities. A series of multi-dimensional scaling tasks will beperformed and the resultant solutions compared to identify the extent to whichequivalent performance is the result of equivalent perceptual structure. Aseries of two-alternative, forced-choice tasks will be performed to demonstratethat the processing of such graphs is in fact one of converting sensory stimuliinto a mental (spatial) representation. Speeded classification tasks withvarious related and unrelated distractors will then be performed to demonstratethe effect of cooperative and counter-operative interaction between themodalities. The culmination of these experiments will help to provide greaterunderstanding into the ways in which previously understood physiologicalmechanisms of individual modalities interact with one another in the(phenomenological) process of perception.

T1  - The effect of peripheral visual motion on focal contrast sensitivity in positive- and negative-symptom schizophrenia.
AN  - 85268819; pmid-12667532
AB  - The aim of the present research was to investigate the effect of peripheral (ambient) stimulation on focal visual processing using the far-out jerk effect in normal observers and subgroups with positive- and negative-symptoms in schizophrenia. The far-out jerk effect refers to a reduction in sensitivity of a briefly presented stimulus in central vision in the presence of a sudden movement or oscillation of a stimulus in peripheral vision. In order to measure the far-out jerk effect the focal contrast sensitivity of 5.0Hz modulated sinusoidal target gratings (0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, and 8.0 number of cycles per degree (c/degrees )) was measured in the presence of three kinds of peripheral surround: a blank field, a stationary 0.75 c/degrees grating, and a 5.0Hz drifting 0.75 c/degrees grating (far-out jerk effect). The findings showed that there were no significant differences in focal contrast sensitivity between the control and positive-symptom group with a blank field and stationary grating surround. However, a 5.0Hz drifting grating surround resulted in a significant reduction in contrast sensitivity at 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 c/degrees in the positive-symptom group. In comparison with the control group the negative-symptom group showed a generalised reduction in focal contrast sensitivity, a significantly smaller far-out jerk effect, and a significant reduction in contrast sensitivity at 0.5 c/degrees with a stationary grating surround. The finding that both stationary and moving peripheral surrounds have an inhibitory effect on focal contrast sensitivity suggests that there is a dispersion in the visual demarcation between stationary and temporal events in the perception of visual motion in the negative-symptom group.

T1  - Use of image analysis to determine algal and bacterial biomass in a high rate algal pond following Percoll fractionation.
AN  - 75712341; 14510193
AB  - This paper reports the results of work to allow a more accurate enumeration, and gravimetric determination, of the relative proportions of algae and bacteria within the floccular matrix present in a High Rate Algal Pond (HRAP). Methodology involving a combination of physical and chemical treatments was used and the resulting material was separated using density gradient centrifugation. The "fractions" were analysed using microscopical image analysis. Each "fraction" was categorised as containing bacteria only, algae only or an association of bacteria and algae, the relative proportions of which were then determined by image analysis to enable a "true" gravimetric determination of the algal and bacterial components of HRAP biomass for the first time. The biomass from HRAPs operated both outdoors and in a glasshouse was examined over complete operational seasons to investigate environmental effects as well as possible effects of variation in COD loading rate and retention time on cell biovolumes and cell quotients. In this study, the accurate assessment of both algal and bacterial biomass, determined as cell volume or dry matter, in addition to measurement of carbon and nitrogen has enabled the calculation of cell quotients. This allows a direct comparison between these values obtained from a nutrient-rich system and those published values obtained from systems with various nutrient status. Conversion factors obtained may also be of value for deriving inputs for computer models for the design and operation of high rate algal ponds.

T1  - Predictors of late cardiac events following treatment with Sr-90 beta-irradiation for instent restenosis.
AN  - 73518871; 12892766
AB  - Intracoronary radiation therapy (IRT) with Sr-90 using the Novoste Beta-Cath system has been shown to be an effective therapy for instent restenosis (ISR), but the temporal occurrence of cardiac events and the predictors of late complications require further investigation.
          We analyzed the demographics, lesion characteristics and clinical outcomes of 138 consecutive patients with ISR treated with IRT from September 1998 to March 2002. Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) were defined as death, myocardial infarction (MI) or target vessel revascularization (TVR). Characteristics of early (8 months) failures were analyzed.
          Thirty-two (23.1%) of 138 patients had MACE on follow-up; 25% (8/32) of failures occurred late after treatment with IRT. A comparison of the clinical and angiographic profile of early and late failures using univariate analysis indicates no correlations to late failure following IRT. Duration to failure after IRT was 14.25+/-3.69 months in the late group compared to 4.63+/-2.86 months in the early group (P<.001).
          Late MACE after IRT with Sr-90 for ISR occur beyond the traditional period for clinical restenosis in 25% of cases and are difficult to predict. Further study is warranted to identify patients at risk for the development of late complications after IRT.

T1  - Child health implications of worldwide urbanization.
AN  - 73482329; 12875511
AB  - The upsurge of urbanization, often poorly planned and uncontrolled, has caused major impacts on human societies for at least two centuries. Urban environments and urbanized lifestyles have strong influences on health and well-being, including on infant and childhood populations in developed and underdeveloped countries, as well as among societies in developmental and environmental transition around the world. Urbanization will inevitably have significant impacts on the health of future generations. Notably, the health consequences of urbanized lifestyles are not confined to residents of cities and large towns but rather are becoming manifest in rapidly changing, previously traditional societies in rural and remote areas because globalization is altering infant feeding practices and the dietary habits and lifestyle patterns of their children. In underdeveloped countries, overcrowding and environmental pollution are huge problems that are exacerbated by undernutrition and infection, particularly respiratory and diarrheal diseases. In developed societies, other problems like injuries; poisonings; violence; drug abuse; exposure to chemical, biological, industrial, and atmospheric pollutants, including pesticides; sexually transmissible diseases; and 'lifestyle' diseases, including obesity and cardiovascular disease risk, are of great current and potential importance.

T1  - The complex epilepsy patient: intricacies of assessment and treatment.
AN  - 73465977; 12859356
AB  - The aim of treatment of all patients with epilepsy is the same: a complete remission of seizures with minimal or no adverse events. However, the means to reach that common goal may differ among patients, not only because of differences in their epileptic syndrome or type of seizures within the same syndrome, but also because of a variety of comorbid pathologic entities that are commonly identified in patients with epilepsy. In this article, we discuss some of the complexities inherent in the planning of therapeutic regimens for epilepsy patients. Comorbid conditions, whether intrinsic or extrinsic to the epileptic disorder, must play a paramount role in the choice of the therapeutic regimen for seizure control. We review the impact of psychiatric comorbidities on the quality of life of patients with epilepsy, with special attention to the tight relationship between depression and epilepsy. Yet, despite this close relationship, comorbid depression is more often than not underrecognized and undertreated. Next, we review the impact of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) on comorbid medical disorders and give clear examples of the potentially deleterious impact of several AEDs on the therapeutic effects of concomitant medications used for their treatment. Clearly, treating epilepsy is not only about controlling seizures.

T1  - Determination of faecal pollutants in Torrens and Patawalonga catchment waters in South Australia using faecal sterols.
AN  - 73373579; 12793691
AB  - This research investigated faecal pollution by sterol profiling in two Adelaide metropolitan catchments in winter 2000 and summer 2001. Water was sampled from five sites on the River Torrens and two sites on Patawalonga river catchment. The steroids detected were coprostanol, epicoprostanol, cholesterol, cholestanol, stigmasterol, betasitosterol, and stigmastanol. The concentrations range from 5 ng/L (of coprostanol) to 34 microg/L (of stigmasterol), with cholesterol detected more frequently at relatively high concentrations (approximately 2 microg/L). Sterol profiling suggested two sites on two occasions may have been impacted by human faecal contamination. Other steroid profiles suggested that sources of pollution consistently included dogs and birds. The steroid concentrations in the Torrens catchment were higher in winter, however, this was not observed in the Patawalonga catchment.

T1  - Towards a national surveillance program for antimicrobial resistance in animals and animal-derived food.
AN  - 73371904; 12807285
AB  - One of the major recommendations of the JETACAR report was that a comprehensive national surveillance system be established to measure antimicrobial resistance to cover medical, food-producing and veterinary areas. While there are a number of existing passive surveillance programs on a national, regional and state basis in the medical field, there are few analogous programs in the veterinary area, and none with a particular emphasis on the food chain. The Commonwealth Interdepartmental JETACAR Implementation Group is working with stakeholders to develop this aspect of the national surveillance program based on the Guidelines published by the world organisation for animal health, the Office International des Epizooties.

T1  - Sustainable urban development in Brisbane City--the Holy Grail?
AN  - 73353112; 12793664
AB  - Impacts from urban stormwater runoff on receiving environments have been well documented, particularly through specific regional scientific studies. Using various local government planning and management elements, urban developments in Brisbane City are now able to address stormwater management in an increasingly holistic context. One key initiative includes facilitating Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) components within an Integrated Water Management Strategy that looks at policy formation, planning strategies, design option, community marketing and acceptance, maintenance programs and finally evaluation of various WSUD approaches. These can include the use of Natural Channel Designs, grassed swales, bio-filtration systems, porous pavements and roofwater tanks in several economic combinations. By linking with the Cooperative Research Centre for Catchment Hydrology, Brisbane City Council has influenced the design of WSUD planning tools and benefited the city with academic inputs into extensive evaluation programs. As well, it has also contributed to the Cooperative Research Centre's research outcomes. These evaluation programs are increasingly providing better understanding of various stormwater quality best management practices throughout Australia. As part of the overall implementation process, active involvement by a range of stakeholders has been crucial. These stakeholders have included internal planning, development assessment and design staff, external consultants, developers, and other local and state government agencies. The latter two groups are assisting in the important task of "regionalisation" of Brisbane City Council's policies and guidelines. Implementation of WSUD initiatives and stormwater re-use strategies under Council's new "Integrated Water Management" agenda are showing some excellent results, suggesting that sustainable urban development is no longer like the search for the Holy Grail.

T1  - Case report: Extraocular muscle paresis caused by snakebite.
AN  - 73179494; 12698017
AB  - A 51 year-old man presented with binocular diplopia on the three days after the snakebite in the fifth finger of the right hand by an Agkistrodon blomhoffi (mamushi). In the primary position he had an exotropia and right hypertropia, which became apparent when his head was tilted to the right. From ocular angle of deviation measured by synoptophore and Hess chart test, he was diagnosed as having medial rectus muscle paresis as well as inferior oblique muscle paresis of the left eye. Elevation deficit on right gaze in the left eye had remained during three days. Our case suggested that the occurrence of subjective binocular diplopia is an important clinical sign for the onset of general abnormalities caused by snakebite.

T1  - Gastric cancer epidemiology and risk factors.
AN  - 73033831; 12589864
AB  - We performed a detailed analysis of the epidemiology of gastric carcinoma, based upon a review of the literature in English. The analysis reveals many puzzling features. There has been a steady fall in the incidence of gastric carcinoma in most societies studied, but a more recent steady rise in the incidence of adenocarcinoma of the cardia and lower esophagus, largely confined to White males. Although the evidence for a major role for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in the etiology of gastric corpus cancer is compelling; in Western society, it probably accounts for fewer than half the cases. The relative roles of dietary constituents such as salt and nitrites and the phenotyping of H. pylori in causation and the beneficial effects of a high fruit and vegetable diet and an affluent lifestyle, for all of which there is some evidence, are yet to be quantified.

T1  - Temporal trends and clinical correlates for the ret/PTC1 mutation in papillary thyroid carcinoma.
AN  - 72966285; 12534735
AB  - The incidence of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) has increased in Australia at a rate exceeding 10% per annum over the past two decades. In Tasmania the increase has averaged 24% per year between 1982 and 1997. Exposure to ionizing radiation is the best characterized risk factor for PTC. Oncogenic mutations of the RET proto-oncogene (ret/PTC rearrangements) have been associated with PTC arising following radiation exposure. In the present study it was sought to determine if PTC incidence trends were associated with an increased occurrence of the ret/PTC1 rearrangement.
          All cases of PTC diagnosed in Tasmania during the even numbered years 1978-1998 inclusive were sought for study (n = 98). Archival histopathology blocks for 62 cases were located. The RNA was successfully extracted from 41 tumours and ret/PTC1 status assessed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The ret/PTC1 mutation was found in 26 (63%) of PTC. The mean age at diagnosis for ret/PTC1-positive and ret/PTC1-negative tumours was 46.5 +/- 15.46 and 41.9 +/- 13.45 years, respectively. The ret/PTC1 positivity was significantly associated with larger tumour size. However, ret/PTC1 was not associated with an adverse prognosis. The prevalence of tumours positive for ret/PTC1 remained stable over the study period (1978-1998) and did not exhibit birth year or diagnosis year clustering.
          This is the first study to map temporal trends for the prevalence of ret/PTC1 relative to incidence trends for PTC. Although the ret/PTC1 mutation was frequently identified in Tasmanian PTC, there was no clear relationship between ret/PTC1 and recent PTC incidence trends.

T1  - Mitochondrial complex inhibitors preferentially damage substantia nigra dopamine neurons in rat brain slices.
AN  - 72942502; 12504867
AB  - Using a rat brain slice preparation, we investigated the role of energy impairment on the selective loss of dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra (SN). Brain slices (400 microm) were incubated at 35 degrees C for 2 h in the presence or absence of mitochondrial complex inhibitors, rotenone, MPP+, 3-nitropropionic acid, and antimycin A. Slices were also incubated in rotenone with excitatory amino acid (EAA) receptor antagonists, MK-801 and CNQX, to determine whether rotenone-induced damage was mediated by EAAs. The slices were then fixed, recut into 30-microm sections, and immunolabeled for tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) to identify catecholamine neurons and to quantify loss of TH-labeled dendrites after treatment. Quantitative comparison was made between SN dopamine neurons, in which rotenone-induced dendrite loss was severe, and hypothalamic A11 dopamine neurons, which were spared. Adjacent sections that were immunolabeled for calbindin or stained with cresyl violet also revealed a striking dendritic degeneration of SN neurons in rotenone-exposed slices, whereas noncatecholamine neurons, such as those in the perifornical nucleus (PeF), were more resistant. Preferential damage to SN dopamine neurons was also evident with other mitochondrial complex inhibitors, MPP+ and antimycin A. EAA receptor antagonists provided partial protection to SN neurons in slices incubated with rotenone (3 microM). The particular vulnerability of SN dopamine neurons in the slice is consistent with the vulnerability of SN in Parkinson's disease. The selective effect of mitochondrial complex inhibition in SN dopamine neurons implies a fundamental deficit in the capacity of these neurons to defend against toxic insult.

T1  - The influence of extrinsic and intrinsic risk factors on the probability of sustaining an injury.
AN  - 72883773; 12479898
AB  - This study was designed to quantify the relative contributions of extrinsic and intrinsic risk factors to the probability of an injury event. A case-control design was used with data collected from injured patients at an emergency department (n=797) and a community sample matched on area of residence and time of injury (n=797). Principal components analysis was used to develop scales for the measurement of 'intrinsic' risk taking tendencies that were slightly modified versions of previously published measures. Two principal components were identified: 'health risk taking' (HRT) and 'adventurous risk taking' (ART). Logistic regression analysis identified variables that significantly predicted membership of the group of injured cases. The main hypothesis was supported by the results: that 'extrinsic' factors such as location, activity, drug and alcohol use and the type of people present at the time of the injury were related to a greater risk of injury than 'intrinsic' variables (health and adventurous risk taking tendencies). The results suggest that injury research and prevention efforts should continue to focus on the identification and modification of situational risk factors for injury rather developing programs that focus on high-risk individuals. High-risk alcohol use, use of prescribed drugs and aspects of work and recreational environments were identified as warranting particular attention.

T1  - The efficacy of divalproex for partial epilepsies.
AN  - 71556250; 15021861
AB  - Valproic acid has clear efficacy in the treatment of partial epilepsies. Its multiple mechanisms predicted its broad spectrum of efficacy and preclinical experimental data prompted its clinical use. Valproic acid's efficacy has been repeatedly demonstrated in clinical trials over the past 25 years. Its efficacy in the treatment of partial epilepsies is similar or better than both the traditional and new antiepileptic drugs. Its side effect profile is well known and manageable, especially with extended-release formulations.

T1  - Land capability and topographic data as a surrogate for the mapping and classification of wetlands: a case example from the Daly basin, Northern Territory, Australia.
AN  - 71430687; 14653633
AB  - The Daly River (catchment 53,000 km2) has the largest flow of all rivers in the Northern Territory and, due to the vast underground aquifers supplying the river, reliable flows of water and areas of high potential soils, is the centre of a region where water resource and agricultural development is being given serious consideration. As part of a larger assessment of environmental flow requirements, an inventory and risk assessment of water dependent ecosystems (wetlands) was undertaken for the Daly basin, a limestone dominated region, 19,382 km2 in size, located in the centre of the catchment. The assessment utilized geographic information system technology to collate, interrogate and analyse soil and topographic data that had been collected previously for the purpose of land capability analysis. The aggregated data were used as a surrogate for mapping the distribution of wetlands in the Daly basin. The land units mapped were composed of individual areas within which the soil, vegetation and landform exhibited a uniform pattern on aerial photographs. The wetland features mapped were classified using landform and hydroperiod as a basis and, to assist in the classification process, a ground-truthing exercise and a basin-wide low-level aerial survey were conducted.

T1  - Radiation dose distribution in polymer gels by Raman spectroscopy.
AN  - 71361857; 14610936
AB  - The Raman spectroscopy of polymer gel dosimeters has been investigated with a view to developing a novel dosimetry technique that is capable of determining radiation dose within a micrometer of spatial resolution. The polymer gel dosimeter, known as the PAG dosimeter, is typically made up of acrylamide, N,N'-methylene-bis--acrylamide, gelatin, and water. A polyacrylamide network within the gelatin matrix forms in response to an absorbed dose. The loss of monomers may be monitored by corresponding changes to the Raman spectrum. Principal component analysis offers a simple method of quantifying the absorbed radiation dose from the Raman spectrum of the polymer gel. The background luminescence in the spectrum increased significantly with dose and is shown to originate in the glass of the sample vial. The competing effects of elastic scatter, which increases with dose due to the formation of polymer, and sample absorption were quantified and found to introduce errors of up to 5% under certain conditions. Raman spectra as a function of distance from the air-surface interface have been measured for samples that were subjected to doses delivered by a clinical linear accelerator. The depth dose profile thus obtained compared favorably with "gold standard" ion-chamber measurements.

T1  - Problems Facing Native American Youths. Hearing before the Committee on Indian Affairs, United States Senate, One Hundred Seventh Congress, Second Session, on Oversight Hearing on Problems Facing Native American Youths (August 1, 2002).
AN  - 62230902; ED475065
AB  - A Senate committee hearing received testimony on the problems of Native American youth and programs addressing those problems. Speakers included representatives of the American Academy of Pediatrics, United National Indian Tribal Youth (UNITY), Boys and Girls Clubs of America, the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), and the Office of National Drug Control Policy. Oral and written comments and materials focused on Native youth problems with substance abuse, poverty, hopelessness, lack of economic and employment opportunities on reservations, health disparities and unmet health needs, high rates of obesity and diabetes, high rates of motor vehicle injuries and suicide, and high dropout rates. Current programs and initiatives addressing such problems are described, including targeted advertising and public communications strategies to spread the anti-drug message; the BIA's Family and Child Education (FACE) program, which promotes family and parent involvement in children's education from birth to first grade; UNITY programs related to leadership training, youth empowerment, physical fitness, and substance abuse prevention; Native Vision's focus on youth involvement in sports and healthy family lifestyles; and the comprehensive programs of Boys and Girls Clubs and their program involving gang members and "wannabe" gangs. Some private foundations funding such programs are described. Recommendations for further action and federal funding are offered. (SV)

T1  - Copyright Issues Relevant to the Creation of a Digital Archive: A Preliminary Assessment. Strategies and Tools for the Digital Library.
AN  - 62166367; ED480764
AB  - The collection and long-term preservation of digital content pose challenges to the intellectual property regime within which libraries and archives are accustomed to working. How to achieve an appropriate balance between copyright owners and users is a topic of ongoing debate in legal and policy circles. This paper describes copyright rights and exceptions and highlights issues potentially involved in the creation of a nonprofit digital archive. The paper is necessarily very general, since many decisions concerning the proposed archive's scope and operation have not yet been made. The purpose of an archive (e.g., to ensure preservation or to provide an easy and convenient means of access), its subject matter, and the manner in which it will acquire copies, as well as who will have access to the archive, from where, and under what conditions, are all factors critical to determining the copyright implications for works to be included in it. The goal of this paper is to provide basic information about the copyright law for those developing such an archive and thereby enable them to recognize areas in which it could impinge on copyright rights and to plan accordingly.

T1  - Investment in After-School Programs. Hearing before a Subcommittee of the Committee on Appropriations, United States Senate. One Hundred Eighth Congress, First Session, Special Hearing (May 13, 2003).
AN  - 62158698; ED483012
AB  - This hearing considers the budget request by the Department of Education for fiscal year 2004 for the 21st Century Community Learning Centers Program. The request by the Department is for $600 million, a sharp reduction of last year's appropriation, which was $993 million. This is a program that serves approximately 1,300,000 students in 1,400 communities throughout the United States. It provides a wide variety of educational experiences and has generally been regarded to be a highly effective program until the Department of Education this year has cited what they conclude to be "disappointing initial findings from a rigorous evaluation." In light of this conclusion, albeit preliminary, the subcommittee concluded that it would be important to have a hearing and go into this issue in some detail. Statements in this hearing are given by: Senator Arlen Specter; Hon. William D. Hansen; Senator Barbara Boxer; Arnold Schwarzenegger; Hon. John DeStefano, Jr.; Harvey Sprafka; Steven Kinlock; and Madison White. (Author/MA)

T1  - Improving Adult Education for the 21st Century. Hearing Before the Subcommittee on 21st Century Competitiveness of the Committee on Education and the Workforce, House of Representatives, One Hundred Eighth Congress, First Session. Hearing held in Washington, DC, March 4, 2003.
AN  - 62156467; ED481350
AB  - A hearing was held to discuss the prior four years of implementation of the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act, and to recommend further improvements. The opening statements of Chairman Howard McKeon and Dale E. Kildee introduce the meeting and discuss the importance of promoting an educated populace that will maintain the United States' place in the global economy. Next, Assistant Secretary of the Office of Vocational and Adult Education Carol D'Amico suggests that the current federal program for adult literacy is inadequate and recommends focusing on the following criteria to improve it: (1) the instructional component of adult basic and literacy education is essential; (2) academic achievement will be more easily obtained with rigorous content standards and student assessments; (3) funding needs to be focused on what works to encourage adoption of promising instructional strategies; (4) more access and choice should be provided to adult education students; and (5) flexibility is key to literacy education. Next, statements by a director of a non-profit affiliate of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, a director of human resources, a community college associate vice president of academic and student services, and an adult education participant discuss their experiences with adult literacy. Most of the statements are followed by transcriptions of discussion with the subcommittee. Appendices include written statements of all of the presenters. (MO)

T1  - High School Students' Levels of Thinking in Regard to Statistical Study Design
AN  - 61999952; EJ776329
AB  - The study describes levels of thinking in regard to the design of statistical studies. Clinical interviews were conducted with 15 students who were enrolled in high school or were recent high school graduates, and who represented a range of mathematical backgrounds. During the clinical interview sessions students were asked how they would go about designing studies to answer several different quantifiable questions. Several levels of sophistication were identified in their responses, and are discussed in terms of the Biggs and Collis (1982, 1991) cognitive model. (Contains 4 tables and 2 figures.)

T1  - The Role of the Sampling Distribution in Understanding Statistical Inference
AN  - 61993690; EJ776331
AB  - Many statistics educators believe that few students develop the level of conceptual understanding essential for them to apply correctly the statistical techniques at their disposal and to interpret their outcomes appropriately. It is also commonly believed that the sampling distribution plays an important role in developing this understanding. This study clarifies the role of the sampling distribution in student understanding of statistical inference, and makes recommendations concerning the content and conduct of teaching and learning strategies in this area.

T1  - Completing the Circle: Researchers of Practice in Statistics Education
AN  - 61993646; EJ776338
AB  - Research in student learning can be based on a theoretical framework, observations of students' learning, the products of this learning, and students' own conceptions of the subject and of learning. In the final analysis, such investigations have a clear purpose--to improve student learning. We report on using the results of research into student learning in statistics to improve the learning environment in a university class on regression analysis. We believe this is an effective method of becoming "researchers of practice" in statistics education.

T1  - Constructing Coordinate Graphs: Representing Corresponding Ordered Values with Variation in Two-Dimensional Space
AN  - 61990162; EJ776330
AB  - Coordinate graphs of time-series data have been significant in the history of statistical graphing and in recent school mathematics curricula. A survey task to construct a graph to represent data about temperature change over time was administered to 133 students in Grades 3, 5, 7, and 9. Four response levels described the degree to which students transformed a table of data into a coordinate graph. "Nonstatistical" responses did not display the data, showing either the context or a graph form only. "Single Aspect" responses showed data along a single dimension, either in a table of corresponding values, or a graph of a single variable. "Inadequate Coordinate" responses showed bivariate data in two-dimensional space but inadequately showed either spatial variation or correspondence of values. "Appropriate Coordinate" graphs displayed both correspondence and variation of values along ordered axes, either as a bar graph of discrete values or as a line graph of continuous variation. These levels of coordinate graph production were then related to levels of response obtained by the same students on two other survey tasks: one involving speculative data generation from a verbal statement of covariation, and the other involving verbal and numerical graph interpretation from a coordinate scattergraph. Features of graphical representations that may prompt student development at different levels are discussed. (Contains 8 figures and 2 tables.)

T1  - Graph Interpretation Aspects of Statistical Literacy: A Japanese Perspective
AN  - 61990111; EJ776328
AB  - Many educators and researchers are trying to define statistical literacy for the 21st century. Kimura, a Japanese science educator, has suggested that a key task of statistical literacy is the ability to extract qualitative information from quantitative information, and/or to create new information from qualitative and quantitative information. This article presents research that offers a theoretical basis using the SOLO Taxonomy to capture students' ability to create new information from qualitative and quantitative information. This research shows that the "creation of dimensionally new information" is a complex construct requiring further research and a deeper analysis than Kimura appears to have used.

T1  - The Use of Action Research for the Professionalisation of Beginning Women Teachers as They Learn about Inclusive Mathematics
AN  - 61852411; EJ852381
AB  - This paper reports on a project that aimed to assist the induction of three women teachers into the practice of mathematics teaching. In their first year of teaching the three teachers were located in schools at great distances from the normal support structures for the teachers. Further, the schools consisted of student populations with wide diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds, not familiar to the teachers. The project had the following characteristics: Firstly, it employed the formation of an action research network. Secondly, it targeted the concern of the teachers on how to make mathematics more inclusive for children from a variety of backgrounds. Thirdly, it bridged the divide in jurisdiction between the responsibility of the university for preservice training and the responsibility of the school and the employment departments for induction and inservice professional learning. This paper discusses the procedures adopted in the project and the outcomes in teachers' learning and professionalisation. (Contains 2 footnotes.)

T1  - The Use of Electronic Question and Answer Forums in Mathematics Teacher Education
AN  - 61849665; EJ852378
AB  - Many mathematics educators share a view of mathematics as a social and cultural phenomenon and believe that the learning of mathematics concepts is developed and enhanced through the use of learning communities. Electronic discussion boards provide one avenue for supporting such social learning. This paper discusses the use of a Question and Answer section of a discussion board in a first year mathematics education subject for primary student teachers, and the way in which this facility fits with ideas of social learning. Theoretical perspectives of social learning in mathematics through the use of an electronic community are explored. Examples are given of how learning was developed through questions and answers in the mathematics education subject and insights shared regarding the various uses of this facility by the students. Issues related to participation, peer misconceptions, learning styles and teacher intervention are raised and discussed. The paper concludes that for students who are comfortable with the use of electronic conferencing, there is value in Question and Answer facilities in raising autonomy and supporting conceptual understanding of mathematical concepts, but that the medium does not suit all learners of mathematics.

T1  - Schema Construction among Pre-Service Teachers and the Use of IT in Mathematics Teaching: A Case Study
AN  - 61840740; EJ852379
AB  - Recent developments about cognitions underlying mathematical learning are beginning to suggest that the activation and appropriate use of prior knowledge by students is, to a large measure, controlled by the quality of organisation of that knowledge. Thus, teaching needs to support the construction of well-connected mathematical knowledge. An important assumption here is that teachers need to construct a repertoire of subject-matter knowledge that is rich and well connected before they can help their students build similar mathematical knowledge. Thus, mathematics knowledge building is an important issue in teacher preparation programs. This paper reports on a study about the knowledge state of a pre-service teacher who planned to use computers in the teaching of linear functions. The results of the study indicate the existence of gaps in the student teacher's subject-matter knowledge. Significantly, there was also a lack of important connections between his understanding of linear functions and the instructional use of a computer software. Knowledge gaps and implications for classroom students' acquisition of mathematical schemas and mathematics teacher education programs are examined and discussed. (Contains 2 tables and 1 figure.)

T1  - Graphics Calculators in the Learning of Mathematics: Teacher Understandings and Classroom Practices
AN  - 61838248; EJ852377
AB  - In a two-day workshop, 12 teachers who had not previously used graphics calculators not only learnt how to use a calculator but also completed calculator tasks designed to explore their misconceptions and then learnt about students' difficulties. Observation of lessons taught subsequently by 6 of the teachers, and interviews with 15 of their students, were used to investigate the effectiveness of the workshop in promoting appropriate use of technology in their mathematics classes. It was found that the teachers consistently drew their students' attention to limitations of the technology. Apparently as a result, their students showed considerably fewer misconceptions than students in a previous study who had been taught by teachers who had not undertaken such professional development. The few remaining student misconceptions could be traced to lingering uncertainties on the part of their teachers. Implications of the findings for mathematics teacher education are discussed.

AB  - Broadly defined, terrorism is a nonstate violent reaction to preponderant political power & the greatest threat to globalization. The causes, types, & tactics of terrorism prior to the September 11, 2001, attack on the US are compared with those dimensions afterward, using statistical sources. In the new terrorism, religious & spiritual movements have replaced the nationalist or leftist politics of earlier terrorism. The US & other countries/actors need to develop short- & long-term strategies to combat terrorism; the long-term actions need to shape the environments in which terrorists & terrorist networks thrive. While military capabilities & homeland security are important, in the long run nonmilitary instruments like intelligence & economic assistance will be more effective. 9 Figures. M. Pflum

T1  - Source of the Dalradian Supergroup constrained by U-Pb dating of detrital zircon and implications for the East Laurentian margin
AN  - 21341930; 7442624
AB  - Detrital zircons in siliciclastic units of the Dalradian Supergroup yield U- Pb ages ranging from 3.2 to 0.5 Ga. Detrital zircons from the sub-Grampian Group basement and the Grampian Group are predominantly of Palaeoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic ages with Archaean grains absent or rare. In contrast, the overlying Appin, Argyll and Southern Highland groups contain a significant contribution of Archaean detrital zircon grains, some of which locally preserve evidence for late Palaeoproterozoic overgrowths dated at c. 1.8 Ga. In addition, on concordia plots Archaean grains are slightly discordant with a lower intercept at c. 1.8 Ga suggesting they were affected by a tectonothermal event at this time. Late Palaeoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic grains also show evidence for overprinting by a tectonothermal event around 1.0- 0.9 Ga. These tectonothermal events occurred in the source region before accumulation of the siliciclastic detritus. The analysed samples contained no definitive evidence for having been affected by a late Neoproterozoic (Knoydartian) event or of containing detritus derived from a source showing evidence for this event. The overall age range of detritus, combined with sparse palaeocurrent data, is consistent with derivation from the Laurentian foreland, especially the Labrador-Greenland region. Archaean detritus overlaps with that of Archaean cratons, notably the Superior, whereas Palaeoproterozoic detritus corresponds to the timing of suturing of Archaean cratons by a series of orogenic belts (Ketilidian-Makkovik, New Quebec, Nagssugtoqidian, Torngat belts). Mesoproterozoic detritus is consistent with derivation from the Grenville Orogen. The presence of a series of detrital age peaks in the late Palaeoproterozoic and early Mesoproterozoic (1.8-1.5 Ga), the paucity of mid- Mesoproterozoic detritus (1.4-1.2 Ga), and evidence for a tectonothermal event between 1.0 and 0.9 Ga is typical of the geological history of the Labrador- Greenland region of Laurentia.

T1  - Structure, ecology and physiology of root clusters - a review
AN  - 21335512; 5571073
AB  - Hairy rootlets, aggregated in longitudinal rows to form distinct clusters, are a major part of the root system in some species. These root clusters are almost universal (1600 species) in the family Proteaceae (proteoid roots), with fewer species in another seven families. There may be 10-1000 rootlets per cm length of parent root in 2-7 rows. Proteoid roots may increase the surface area by over 140 x and soil volume explored by 300 x that per length of an equivalent non-proteoid root. This greatly enhances exudation of carboxylates, phenolics and water, solubilisation of mineral and organic nutrients and uptake of inorganic nutrients, amino acids and water per unit root mass. Root cluster production peaks at soil nutrient levels (P, N, Fe) suboptimal for growth of the rest of the root system, and may cease when shoot mass peaks. As with other root types, root cluster production is controlled by the interplay between external and internal nutrient levels, and mediated by auxin and other hormones to which the process is particularly sensitive. Proteoid roots are concentrated in the humus-rich surface soil horizons, by 800 x in Banksia scrub-heath. Compared with an equal mass of the B horizon, the A sub(1) horizon has much higher levels of N, P, K and Ca in soils where species with proteoid root clusters are prominent, and the concentration of root clusters in that region ensures that uptake is optimal where supply is maximal. Both proteoid and non-proteoid root growth are promoted wherever the humus-rich layer is located in the soil profile, with 4 x more proteoid roots per root length in Hakea laurina. Proteoid root production near the soil surface is favoured among hakeas, even in uniform soil, but to a lesser extent, while addition of dilute N or P solutions in split-root system studies promotes non-proteoid, but inhibits proteoid, root production. Local or seasonal applications of water to hakeas initiate non-proteoid, then proteoid, root production, while waterlogging inhibits non-proteoid, but promotes proteoid, root production near the soil surface. A chemical stimulus, probably of bacterial origin, may be associated with root cluster initiation, but most experiments have alternative interpretations. It is possible that the bacterial component of soil pockets rich in organic matter, rather than their nutrient component, could be responsible for the proliferation of proteoid roots there, but much more research on root cluster microbiology is needed.

T1  - Practical condition assessment options for critical trunk watermains
AN  - 20968629; 11048839
AB  - A review, originally carried out for Sydney Water Corporation, of a complete range of direct and indirect methodologies used to assess the condition of buried cast iron and steel water pipelines is presented. These techniques include pipe sampling, pit depth measurement, soil testing using various parameters, as well as other non-destructive testing (NDT) based on various electromagnetic principles. Both the literature and comprehensive field trials have shown that soil testing using linear polarisation resistance (LPR) methodologies as an input to statistical analysis packages is a cost-effective technique. Direct evaluation using remote field eddy current intelligent pigs can also be very useful for the direct examination of critical watermains but is limited to smaller sizes of DN 150-DN 375.

T1  - Normal growth and development of fetal external genitalia demonstrated by sonography
AN  - 20284607; 8891357
AB  - Purpose Our aim in this retrospective sonographic study was to describe the normal growth and development of fetal external genitalia. Methods We reviewed the sonograms of anatomically normally fetuses, obtained over a 5-year period, and measured transverse scrotal diameter or penile length in male fetuses and bilabial diameter in female fetuses. Transverse scrotal diameter was measured from the midpoint of the lateral scrotal wall to the midpoint of the opposite lateral wall; penile length, from the base of the shaft to the tip; and bilabial diameter, from the midpoint of the lateral labial margin to the midpoint of the opposite lateral labial margin. Results We examined sonograms from 1,182 fetuses and measured transverse scrotal diameter in 304 and penile length in 494 male fetuses and bilabial diameter in 384 female fetuses. The fetuses ranged from 14 to 41 weeks' menstrual age. Transverse scrotal diameter, penile length, and bilabial measurements were highly correlated with menstrual age (r = 0.941, r = 0.860, and r = 0.898, respectively). We found that growth of fetal external genitalia is similar to that for other parameters of fetal growth, such as biparietal diameter and femur length. Conclusions The results of this study may be helpful in understanding the natural course of the growth and development of fetal external genitalia. In addition, the data we gathered may be useful in combination with other biometric data for estimating fetal age and may help in detecting abnormalities in the fetal external genitalia.

T1  - Changing the strategy for community forestry in Nepal: The case for active management
AN  - 19929804; 6063920
AB  - Community forestry was developed in Nepal in the late 1970s to reduce environmental degradation and provide for the basic needs of rural people, but too much emphasis has been placed on developing new participatory institutions (Community Forest Users Groups (CFUGs)) and not enough on providing technical support for forest management. Consequently, most CFUGs have adopted a passive forest management strategy which emphasizes forest protection, rather than actively managing forests for multiple purposes, and fewer benefits have been realized from community forestry than expected, with wealthy households benefiting more than poor ones. Greater emphasis should be placed on active forest management in future to increase the overall benefits from community forestry and the proportion received by poorer households. This will contribute to the new national policy aim of poverty alleviation.

T1  - Observing plant roots in their environment: current imaging options and specific contribution of two- dimensional approaches
AN  - 19760585; 8507422
AB  - This paper provides an overview of current options for imaging roots in their environment. Our primary aim is to describe the potential and limitations of these techniques, rather than their physical principles. We primarily discuss two-dimensional imaging techniques which, while inherently limited by their 2- dimensional nature are technically simple, cheaper, more readily accessible, and offer larger field- of-view or better resolution for a similar field-of-view than three-dimensional imaging techniques. We show that techniques involving microscopic or high-resolution X-ray imaging of roots in undisturbed soil samples have a considerable value because they can provide, at a scale which is not accessible by any other means, essential information on complex interactions between roots and soil structure. We also illustrate how 2D imaging techniques, based on either visible light or X-ray attenuation through thin growing containers (rhizotrons), can be used to study whole root systems. We conclude that, while fully appropriate 3D imaging tools will ultimately become available, in the meantime, two-dimensional techniques should be considered as relevant options for observing roots in their environment.Original Abstract: Observation des racines dans leur environnement : techniques d'imagerie actuelles et apports specifiques des approches 2D. Cet article offre un inventaire des techniques d'imagerie actuellement disponibles pour l'observation des racines au sein de leur environnement. le propos est avant tout d'informer le lecteur sur le potentiel et les limites des techniques et non sur leurs principes physiques. D'autre part, l'accent est mis sur l'apport specifique des methodes 2D : en depit des limitations et biais qui leur sont inherents, ces methodes offrent en effet, par rapport aux outils 3D actuellement disponibles, des avantages tels qu'un grand champ d'observation ou une resolution superieure a champ d'observation equivalent, ou encore, une mise en oeuvre simplifiee et un cout reduit. Ainsi, la microscopie et la radiographie X a haute resolution sont tres attractives car elles permettent d'etudier, a une echelle qui demeure hors de la portee des methodes 3D, les interactions complexes entre racines et structure du sol. On montre par ailleurs que les methodes 2D basees sur l'attenuation de lumiere visible ou de rayons X s'averent tres utiles pour etudier le fonctionnement de systemes racinaires entiers en rhizotrons. S'il ne fait guere de doute qu'a relativement court terme, les progres accomplis dans le domaine de l'imagerie 3D aboutiront a la mise au point d'outils parfaitement adaptes a l'observation non destructive des racines dans leur environnement, il n'en reste pas moins que, dans l'attente de tels outils, les techniques 2D continueront de faire progresser notre connaissance des racines et de leur fonctionnement.

T1  - Genetic Evidence of Resistance to Cadmium Toxicity in Wistar-Imamichi Rats
AN  - 19264172; 5833627
AB  - Resistance to the toxicity of cadmium (Cd) was examined in male Wistar-Imamichi (Wistar-IM) and Fischer 344 (Fischer) rats. The Wistar-IM strain was confirmed to exhibit strong resistance compared to the Fischer strain. The resistance in first filial (F1) males was intermediate between that in Wistar-IM and that in Fischer males. The data from reciprocal crosses indicate that the strong resistance to Cd toxicity in male Wistar-IM rats is autosomal and inherited as an incompletely dominant phenotype.

T1  - Chemical Signals Inducing Attraction and Alarm in European Reticulitermes Termites (Isoptera, Rhinotermitidae)
AN  - 19263570; 5843275
AB  - Chemical signals causing attraction and alarm in four European subterranean termite species of the genus Reticulitermes (R. santonensis, R. lucifugus, R. grassei, R. banyulensis) were investigated. Natural extracts and isolated compounds from workers and soldiers were offered as odor source in a petri dish to groups of termites, and their behavioral reaction was registered. Pentane extracts of whole workers were attractive, and in three of the species induced a slight alarm reaction. The extracts contained 3-octanone, 3-octanol, and six fatty acids (C14-C18), presumably originating from the cuticle. Species-specific differences were quantitative. When tested individually or as synthetic mixture the worker compounds were significantly less effective than the natural extract. Only the ketone, the alcohol, and one of the fatty acids had any effect, functioning predominantly as attractants. Reticulitermes soldiers possess a frontal gland, which is employed for chemical defense of the colony, and contains species-specific mixtures of terpenes: monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, diterpene alcohols, and a sesterterpene. All compounds of the frontal gland secretions proved to be highly attractive to the respective species, acting significantly stronger than worker compounds. The minor volatile compounds, the mono- and sesquiterpenes, function as alarm pheromone in Reticulitermes: they were the most attractive components, and also the ones inducing an intense alarm reaction in both workers and soldiers.

T1  - Exercise and the Nitric Oxide Vasodilator System
AN  - 19263467; 5842096
AB  - In the past two decades, normal endothelial function has been identified as integral to vascular health. The endothelium produces numerous vasodilator and vasoconstrictor compounds that regulate vascular tone; the vasodilator, nitric oxide (NO), has additional antiatherogenic properties, is probably the most important and best characterised mediator, and its intrinsic vasodilator function is commonly used as a surrogate index of endothelial function. Many conditions, including atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus and even vascular risk factors, are associated with endothelial dysfunction, which, in turn, correlates with cardiovascular mortality. Furthermore, clinical benefit and improved endothelial function tend to be associated in response to interventions. Shear stress on endothelial cells is a potent stimulus for NO production. Although the role of endothelium-derived NO in acute exercise has not been fully resolved, exercise training involving repetitive bouts of exercise over weeks or months up-regulates endothelial NO bioactivity. Animal studies have found improved endothelium-dependent vasodilation after as few as 7 days of exercise. Consequent changes in vasodilator function appear to persist for several weeks but may regress with long-term training, perhaps reflecting progression to structural adaptation which may, however, have been partly endothelium-dependent. The increase in blood flow, and change in haemodynamics that occur during acute exercise may, therefore, provide a stimulus for both acute and chronic changes in vascular function. Substantial differences within species and within the vasculature appear to exist. In humans, exercise training improves endothelium-dependent vasodilator function, not only as a localised phenomenon in the active muscle group, but also as a systemic response when a relatively large mass of muscle is activated regularly during an exercise training programme. Individuals with initially impaired endothelial function at baseline appear to be more responsive to exercise training than healthy individuals; that is, it is more difficult to improve already normal vascular function. While improvement is reflected in increased NO bioactivity, the detail of mechanisms, for example the relative importance of up-regulation of mediators and antioxidant effects, is unclear. Optimum training schedules, possible sequential changes and the duration of benefit under various conditions also remain largely unresolved. In summary, epidemiological evidence strongly suggests that regular exercise confers beneficial effects on cardiovascular health. Shear stress-mediated improvement in endothelial function provides one plausible explanation for the cardioprotective benefits of exercise training.

T1  - Phylogeography and population history of the endangered golden sun moth (Synemon plana) revealed by allozymes and mitochondrial DNA analysis
AN  - 19259207; 5834249
AB  - A combination of allozyme and mitochondrial DNA markers were used to determine the contribution of recent and ancient causes of patterns of genetic variation within and among 46 populations of the endangered golden sun moth, Synemon plana. Allozyme analysis grouped the 46 populations into 5 major genetic clusters that corresponded closely with geographic location following a classic isolation-by-distance model. Phylogenetic analysis of 14 mtDNA haplotypes revealed two reciprocally monophyletic groups. One of these groups (containing 4 geographically distant populations) was clearly identified by allozyme analysis and represents a distinct evolutionary unit. The remaining 4 allozyme groups were not distinguishable by mtDNA analysis. The evidence suggests that the populations within these groups derived from a small founding population that underwent rapid demographic expansion in ancient times. This was followed by more recent population bottlenecks resulting from habitat fragmentation associated with the widespread introduction of agriculture into the region. The generally low levels of allozyme and nucleotide diversity within these populations support this hypothesis.

T1  - Brain Disrupting Actions of Prenatal Diethylstilbestrol Exposure in Mice--Behavioral, Neurochemical and Electrophysiological Studies
AN  - 19258523; 5840052
AB  - In addition to effects on the reproductive system, endocrine disruptors are thought to have brain-disrupting actions based on epidemiological and animal studies. In this review, we discuss the current state of studies on the brain-disrupting actions of diethylstilbestrol (DES), which is a prototype endocrine disruptor that has potent estrogen-like action, focusing on our own findings. The major findings concerning the brain-disrupting action of DES are as follows: Exposure to a minute amount of DES during the late stage of gestation, but not the late stage of the lactation period, caused neurobehavioral changes such as impairment of the passive avoidance response in mice offspring. There is a difference in effect between male and female offspring of DES exposure on dendritic arbolization of hippocampal pyramidal neurons. In 6-week-old male offspring, prenatal DES exposure did not affect the responsiveness of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)- or GABA sub(A)-receptors in the hippocampal pyramidal neurons, but drastically increased the level of phosphorylated Ca super(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II in the hippocampus. These findings suggest that, in mice, DES has brain-disrupting actions, with a critical period of exposure. Further studies are needed to clarify the primary site and mechanism of these actions, using various methods and animal models such as estrogen-receptor `knock-out' and/or `knock-in' mice.

T1  - Issues in environmental water allocation - An Australian perspective
AN  - 19257848; 5829728
AB  - Environmental water allocation is a critical issue in Australia and internationally. It has been prominent in Australia for a little over ten years during which time major policy and scientific advances have been made, but little implementation. This paper examines current understanding of environmental water allocation across a broad range of disciplines including the biophysical sciences, social sciences, economics, law, and policy. Development of practical methods for assessing environmental water requirements and experience with implementation in Australia are discussed. The paper concludes with thoughts on future needs.

T1  - Induction of salt tolerance in Bacillus subtilis IFO 3025
AN  - 19233332; 5793655
AB  - Salt tolerance was induced in Bacillus subtilis IFO 3025 cells when a moderate osmotic stress was imposed by incubation in the presence of compatible solutes and 0.5 M NaCI or 0.8 M sorbitol. The optimum condition for inducing salt tolerance was observed when the cells were incubated in a solution containing 5 mM glutamate, 2.5 mM KCI, and 0.5 M NaCl or 0.8 M sorbitol. After 60 min incubation, the cells were able to form colonies on an agar plate with high salinity. It was confirmed that the cells acquired salt tolerance by accumulating glutamate and potassium ions in the cytoplasm as the main solute and ion, respectively.

T1  - The ocean storage of nuclear waste
AN  - 19232355; 5811254
AB  - One of the most daunting issues facing the United States and the global nuclear community is the storage of nuclear waste produced from military weapons and power generation, nuclear electric power generation, decommissioned power plants, and medical and scientific research. As nuclear waste of all types continues to accumulate worldwide, the need to address the issue in a timely and innovative fashion is paramount. One potential alternative to storing materials in land-based facilities is deep ocean storage. At first, the notion of storing nuclear waste at the bottom of the ocean appears impossible and dangerous. Upon closer look, however, this approach may provide signficant benefits compared to traditional land-based storage. This article examines some of the implications of ocean storage of nuclear waste.

T1  - Sonographic grading of fetal intracardiac echogenic foci in a population at low risk of aneuploidy
AN  - 19159311; 5760502
AB  - We screened pregnant women at low risk of a fetal chromosomal abnormality for the presence of fetal intracardiac echogenic foci (ICEF) and graded those foci by using sonographic gain reduction. Our objectives were to determine the interobserver reliability of the technique and the association of ICEF, by grade, with fetal aneuploidy. Pregnant women who were 18-35 years old, at low risk for fetal chromosomal abnormalities, and referred for targeted sonography at 16-24 weeks' menstrual age were eligible to participate. All patients whose fetuses had ICEF were offered fetal chromosomal analysis. The presence of ICEF was ascertained by an apical 4-chamber view of the fetal heart and graded independently by 2 examiners blinded to each other's assessment. Grading was based on the difference in echogenicity of the ICEF and the thoracic spine as the ultrasound gain was reduced; in grade 1, the ICEF image was lost before that of the thoracic spine; in grade 2, the ICEF and thoracic spine images disappeared at the same gain setting; and in grade 3, the thoracic spine image was lost before that of the ICEF. During the 6-month study period, 383 eligible women were examined, and ICEF were seen in 35 fetuses (9.1%): 25 (71.4%) in the left ventricle, 1 (2.9%) in the right ventricle, and 9 (25.7%) in both ventricles. ICEF grading was successfully performed in all 33 of the women with fetal ICEF who elected to participate. Twenty-one (63.6%) had grade 1, 9 (27.3%) had grade 2, and 3 (9.1%) had grade 3 ICEF. Interobserver agreement was noted in 27 (90.0%) of 30 available paired second-trimester observations (kappa = 0.8), indicating excellent agreement. Two fetuses (6.1%) with grade 1 ICEF but no other risk factors for aneuploidy had chromosomal abnormalities, as compared with 1 fetus (0.3%) in the control group, which had no ICEF (p = 0.02). Sonographic grading of ICEF is feasible and reliable. The presence of fetal ICEF in a population otherwise at low risk for aneuploidy seems to warrant the performance of fetal chromosomal analysis.

T1  - Enlarged fetal bladder: Differential diagnosis and outcomes
AN  - 18927249; 5685688
AB  - The sonographic finding of an enlarged fetal bladder may simply be a transitory normal variant, but it may also be secondary to reflux or to obstructive, neurogenic, or myopathic causes. In this report, we describe the cases of 3 fetuses with an enlarged bladder, each of which had a different cause. The first fetus had posterior urethral valve obstruction, the second, a ruptured neurogenic bladder, and the third, megacystic-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome. When sonographic examination reveals an enlarged fetal bladder, the ureter, kidneys, genitalia, and spine should be evaluated carefully. Although sonography is good at identifying urinary tract abnormalities, it often cannot provide the specific diagnosis or cause. We recommend frequent sonographic monitoring to evaluate such fetuses for persistence of or changes in bladder enlargement and for changes in the volume of amniotic fluid because these signs may be indicators of abnormalities of renal function and risk factors for a poor prognosis. Analysis of fetal electrolyte levels can also aid in determining the prognosis and whether the condition is amenable to therapeutic intervention.

T1  - Roosting activity budget of the southern bent-wing bat (Miniopterus schreibersii bassanii)
AN  - 18886480; 5735543
AB  - The roosting activity budget of the southern bent-wing bat (Miniopterus schreibersii bassanii) was observed using remote-controlled infrared-illuminated video-cameras. Bat activity was assessed using scan sampling, conducted in 98 two-hour observation blocks, with 605 scan samples (each of similar to 2.5-min duration) being collected. Activity was divided into three categories: 'at rest', 'grooming', and 'active' (including flying off). Bats spent an average of 62% of their time 'at rest', 16% 'grooming', and 22% 'active'. Bat activity was significantly influenced by time of day, the cave chamber that was occupied, the vertical location of the bats on the cave wall, and the type of cluster formed by the bats. During the day bats spent most time 'at rest' (overall mean 78%) compared with other times (overall means 43-54%). Levels of flight and 'activity' (relative to 'at rest') were significantly lower during the day than at other times. Bats on the walls of the maternity chamber, where the temperature was highest, spent less time 'at rest' (overall mean 51%) than did bats on the walls of cooler chambers (overall means 73-86% of time). Bats in the maternity chamber spent significantly more time 'active' and 'grooming' (relative to 'at rest') than did bats in other chambers. Microclimatic conditions within the cave environment appear to significantly affect the activity of bats whilst at roost.

T1  - Moving with the times: baseline data to gauge future shifts in vegetation and invertebrate altitudinal assemblages due to environmental change
AN  - 18880236; 5725365
AB  - A long-term monitoring program has been established in Tasmania, Australia, as a Satellite Project for the International Biodiversity Observation Year (IBOY). This program aims to monitor distributional change in vegetation and fauna assemblages along an altitudinal gradient (70-130 m) in response to climate change and other environmental events. Baseline data collected over a two-year period will be available for comparison with data collected in future decades. The vegetation varies with altitude and fire history. The rate of change in vegetation is not continuous along the altitudinal gradient, but is most rapid above 700 m and below the treeline at 1000-1100 m. Most vascular plant species reach the limit of their distribution within this zone. Despite their preliminary nature, the invertebrate data also display altitudinal and seasonal patterns. The treeline and the 700-1000 m zone again appear to be notable in terms of invertebrate distribution. While the composition of ground-based taxa may be closely related to the floristic composition of the vegetation (or its environmental drivers), the airborne invertebrate fauna appears to be more closely related to structural characteristics such as height and density. Of all taxa, the Coleoptera appear to be the best potential indicators across most altitudes and times. Although the current data provide a wealth of inventory and distributional information over altitude, their greatest potential value lies in longterm comparative information. Future sampling should focus not only on changes at and above the treeline, but also on the zone below this where many species are at their altitudinal limits and may be particularly sensitive to climate change.

T1  - Antioxidants in Detoxification of Arsenic-Induced Oxidative Injury in Rabbits: Preliminary Results
AN  - 18878899; 5731722
AB  - To assess the oxidative injuries caused by arsenic toxicity in rabbits and evaluate the detoxifying effects of exogenous antioxidants, we administered arsenic trioxide (3-5 mg/kg/day) in rabbits through a feeding tube for seven days. These rabbits were then treated with a recipe of vitamins, zinc, selenium (VZS) or a plant polyphenol or a placebo for the next seven days. Blood samples were collected from ear vein for spectrophotometric assay of reduced glutathione (GSH), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), and nitrite/nitrate (NO sub(x); index of nitric oxide formation) before arsenic administration, seven days after arsenic administration, and seven days after antioxidant treatment. The total arsenic concentrations in hair and spot urine samples of rabbits before arsenic administration were 0.6 plus or minus 0.21 mu g/g and 34.0 plus or minus 5.9 mu g/L, respectively. Administration of arsenic trioxide significantly increased arsenic concentrations in hair and in urine to 2.8 plus or minus 0.40 mu g/g (p < 0.001) and 7372 plus or minus 1392.0 mu g/L (p < 0.001), respectively. Arsenic administration to rabbits significantly reduced GSH concentration (post-arsenic, 17.5 plus or minus 0.81 mg/dL vs. pre-arsenic, 32.0 plus or minus 0.76 mg/dL, p < 0.001), increased TBARS concentration (post-arsenic, 8 plus or minus 1.1 mu M vs. pre-arsenic, 5 plus or minus 0.7 mu M, p < 0.05), and NO sub(x) concentration (post-arsenic, 465 plus or minus 38.5 mu M vs. pre-arsenic, 320 plus or minus 24.7 mu M, p < 0.001) as compared to the pre-arsenic levels. There was a negative correlation between TBARS and GSH concentrations (r = -0.464, p < 0.01) and between NO sub(x) and GSH concentrations (r = -0.381, p < 0.05) of intoxicated rabbits. The recovery of the depleted GSH was significantly greater in the polyphenols (77.0 plus or minus 12.0%) or VZS (67.0 plus or minus 17.0%) treatment groups compared with the placebo group (36.0 plus or minus 7.0%). The decrease in NO sub(x) level of arsenic-treated rabbits was significantly greater in polyphenols treatment group than the placebo group (60.0 plus or minus 9.0% vs. 17.0 plus or minus 6.0%, p < 0.001). These results indicate that arsenic induces toxicity in rabbits associated with an increase in lipid peroxidation. Arsenic toxicity increases nitric oxide production in the body. Exogenous antioxidants such as polyphenols and recipe of vitamins, zinc, and selenium are useful for arsenic detoxification.

T1  - Prokaryotic Metabolic Activity and Community Structure in Antarctic Continental Shelf Sediments
AN  - 18843968; 5620059
AB  - The prokaryote community activity and structural characteristics within marine sediment sampled across a continental shelf area located off eastern Antarctica (66 degree S, 143 degree E; depth range, 709 to 964 m) were studied. Correlations were found between microbial biomass and aminopeptidase and chitinase rates, which were used as proxies for microbial activity. Biomass and activity were maximal within the 0- to 3-cm depth range and declined rapidly with sediment depths below 5 cm. Most-probable-number counting using a dilute carbohydrate- containing medium recovered 1.7 to 3.8% of the sediment total bacterial count, with mostly facultatively anaerobic psychrophiles cultured. The median optimal growth temperature for the sediment isolates was 15 degree C. Many of the isolates identified belonged to genera characteristic of deep-sea habitats, although most appear to be novel species. Phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) and isoprenoid glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraether analyses indicated that the samples contained lipid components typical of marine sediments, with profiles varying little between samples at the same depth; however, significant differences in PLFA profiles were found between depths of 0 to 1 cm and 13 to 15 cm, reflecting the presence of a different microbial community. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) analysis of amplified bacterial 16S rRNA genes revealed that between samples and across sediment core depths of 1 to 4 cm, the community structure appeared homogenous; however, principal-component analysis of DGGE patterns revealed that at greater sediment depths, successional shifts in community structure were evident. Sequencing of DGGE bands and rRNA probe hybridization analysis revealed that the major community members belonged to delta proteobacteria, putative sulfide oxidizers of the gamma proteobacteria, Flavobacteria, Planctomycetales, and Archaea. rRNA hybridization analyses also indicated that these groups were present at similar levels in the top layer across the shelf region.

T1  - Biodiversity, Community Structural Shifts, and Biogeography of Prokaryotes within Antarctic Continental Shelf Sediment
AN  - 18843621; 5620060
AB  - 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) clone library analysis was conducted to assess prokaryotic diversity and community structural changes within a surficial sediment core obtained from an Antarctic continental shelf area (depth, 761 m) within the Mertz Glacier Polynya (MGP) region. Libraries were created from three separate horizons of the core (0- to 0.4-cm, 1.5- to 2.5-cm, and 20- to 21-cm depth positions). The results indicated that at the oxic sediment surface (depth, 0 to 0.4 cm) the microbial community appeared to be dominated by a small subset of potentially r-strategist (fast-growing, opportunistic) species, resulting in a lower-than-expected species richness of 442 operational taxonomic units (OTUs). At a depth of 1.5 to 2.5 cm, the species richness (1,128 OTUs) was much higher, with the community dominated by numerous gamma and delta proteobacterial phylotypes. At a depth of 20 to 21 cm, a clear decline in species richness (541 OTUs) occurred, accompanied by a larger number of more phylogenetically divergent phylotypes and a decline in the predominance of Proteobacteria. Based on rRNA and clonal abundance as well as sequence comparisons, syntrophic cycling of oxidized and reduced sulfur compounds appeared to be the dominant process in surficial MGP sediment, as phylotype groups putatively linked to these processes made up a large proportion of clones throughout the core. Between 18 and 65% of 16S rDNA phylotypes detected in a wide range of coastal and open ocean sediments possessed high levels of sequence similarity (>95%) with the MGP sediment phylotypes, indicating that many sediment prokaryote phylotype groups defined in this study are ubiquitous in marine sediment.

T1  - Competition coefficients in a marine epibenthic assemblage depend on spatial structure
AN  - 18842208; 5583715
AB  - We investigated the importance of the spatial context of interactions in a multispecies marine epibenthic assemblage with respect to the outcomes of interspecific interactions, neighbour-specific growth rates, and the dynamics of spatial and mean-field models of the system. We compared the outcomes of interactions and overgrowth rates of pair-wise combinations of species in spatially simplified contrived interactions with the same combinations in an unmanipulated assemblage. While estimates of neighbour-specific growth rates were similar in both sets of interactions, the probability of a species winning a particular interaction was strongly dependent on whether the interaction was contrived or occurred in the unmanipulated assemblage. The dynamics of a spatial model and its mean-field equivalent parameterised from estimates of interaction outcome and neighbour-specific growth from contrived interactions were significantly different to the dynamics of models based on estimates of interaction outcome and neighbour-specific growth obtained from non-manipulated assemblages. Differences in the dynamics of models based on parameters from unmanipulated and contrived interactions are primarily due to differences in outcomes of interspecific interactions, while fluctuations in growth rates contribute to the variability around these dynamics. Our results suggest that conclusions about interspecific interactions and community dynamics examined in simplified spatial associations (e.g. in manipulative experiments) is likely to be limited to assemblages with a similarly simplified spatial structure, which is an unlikely occurrence in nature.

T1  - Thermal energetics of Nyctophilus geoffroyi (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) at the southern limits of its distribution
AN  - 18805870; 5688267
AB  - The energetics of the lesser long-eared bat, Nyctophilus geoffroyi, at the southern limits of its distribution was examined to determine whether this species shows any latitudinal variation in this aspect of its physiological ecology. Estimates of metabolic rate were obtained from the oxygen consumption of adult bats in a non-reproductive condition. Values for the thermoneutral zone were similar but thermal conductance was lower than for bats from mainland of Australia. Euthermic body temperature was higher (37.4 plus or minus 0.2 degree C) and the ambient temperature at which N. geoffroyi entered torpor has a downward shift of 10 degree C at the southern limits of its distribution. The basal metabolic rate (1.12 plus or minus 0.14 mL O sub(2) g super(-1) h super(-1)) also was lower than in lower latitudes. Thermal conductance of the bats in Tasmania was lower than that found in New South Wales or Western Australia (0.29 v. 0.38-0.39 mL O sub(2) g super(-1) h super(-1) degree C super(-1)). All of these differences are apparently adaptations to a cooler environment.

T1  - A review of research on techniques for lifting low-lying objects: 2. Evidence for a correct technique
AN  - 18775152; 5649014
AB  - Teaching 'correct' lifting technique is common, with squat lifting generally recommended. However the available evidence is less clear about which technique should be favoured. The purpose of this paper was to present an accessible synthesis of the evidence to assist professionals in their decision about whether to teach a specific technique for lifting objects lying on or near the ground. Squat, stoop and semi-squat techniques are described and the psychophysical, physiological, biomechanical, psychological, performance and clinical evidence for each technique summarised. Evidence for other lifting guidelines is also presented. It is concluded that no one technique has clear evidence and that a work design approach should be the prime focus of intervention. Recommendations for correct lifting technique guidelines are given for where technique training must be provided.

T1  - Modulation of Tumor-selective Vascular Blood Flow and Extravasation by the Stable Prostaglandin I sub(2) Analogue Beraprost Sodium
AN  - 18770552; 5636431
AB  - Improved delivery of macromolecular drugs to solid tumor is known as the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect of macromolecular drugs and lipids. We report here that a prostaglandin I sub(2) (PGI sub(2)) analogue induces enhancement of tumor-selective drug delivery, while it decreases tumor blood flow, in a rat tumor model (AH136B). Beraprost sodium (BPS) is an analogue of PGI sub(2) that is more stable than parental PGI sub(2) in vivo (t sub( one half ) for BPS is > 1 h vs. a few seconds for PGI sub(2)). Thus, BPS was administered to tumor-bearing rats to examine its effect on tumor vascular permeability as well as tumor blood flow. The amount of extravasation of the Evans blue-albumin complex in tumor tissue increased from two to three times, whereas tumor blood flow decreased almost 70%, in the group treated with BPS at 7 mu g/kg compared with controls. Tissue blood flow of normal organs such as the kidney and the liver did not change to a significant extent. These findings establish a new role for BPS, not only in enhancing macromolecular drug delivery, but also in reducing the blood supply to tumor tissues.

T1  - Can conservation assessment criteria developed for terrestrial systems be applied to riverine systems?
AN  - 18767639; 5637031
AB  - Australia's aquatic ecosystems are of outstanding diversity and interest on a world scale. As one of the world's driest continents, its water resources are under growing pressure, yet there are no systematic conservation efforts. Any moves towards aquatic biodiversity conservation must be pursued within appropriate scientific, policy, and management contexts. A key starting point is the articulation of aquatic conservation values. Concepts and criteria for biodiversity conservation are well established in the conservation of terrestrial ecosystems in Australia. They are often framed within legislation or derived through policy and practice. If freshwater biodiversity is to be conserved, then conservation criteria and methods of assessment need be integrated with possible mechanisms for protection. So it is useful to examine whether the criteria and thresholds applied to terrestrial systems are valid and appropriate for freshwater ecosystems. Two key questions are discussed: are commonly applied conservation criteria appropriate and adequate for aquatic ecosystems? and, is it feasible to apply criteria used in terrestrial systems to aquatic systems? The discussion is informed by evidence from two perspectives: a survey of views of river scientists and managers, and analysis of field studies of river conservation assessments in Australia. The data suggest that while the basic concepts that define biodiversity value can be applied to aquatic systems, difficulties are apparent in applying and interpreting the thresholds and decision rules used for terrestrial systems. In addition, the survey of scientists and managers in Australia showed that landscape scale values and riverine functions should be incorporated in the assessment and protection of riverine systems. The analysis concludes that conservation of freshwater biodiversity in Australia needs to be founded upon national legislation and policies for biodiversity conservation alongside conservation of terrestrial systems. However, different approaches to defining and assessing biodiversity value of freshwater ecosystems will need to be explored and specified.

T1  - Imperilled rivers of Australia: Challenges for assessment and conservation
AN  - 18764420; 5637029
AB  - In Australia, riverine biodiversity (as judged by species diversity) is threatened by an array of anthropogenic effects common in industrialised countries (e.g. in-stream barriers, mining and sewage effluents, increased nutrient inputs, introduced species) as well as more diffuse, widespread phenomena characteristic of most of the arid and semi-arid areas of the world (e.g. salinisation and alteration of flows). Although much has been learned from specific case studies in the more populated areas, the nationally systematic efforts at quantifying these threats rely mostly on measures of river "condition" or "health" because measuring species diversity across areas as large as Australia is too expensive. However, these measures are incomplete representations of biodiversity, and some of the auditing processes compound other human values into their summaries of river condition or health. Furthermore, public perceptions of what rivers in Australia can deliver in terms of "ecosystem services" may not be feasible in many areas owing to the way that the Australian landscape has evolved. To avoid making the mistake of assuming that "good river health" automatically means "all biodiversity is conserved," three advances are needed: appropriate conceptual frameworks of how a given river system functions, more research that clarifies the links between processes and biodiversity, and an understanding of the historical biogeography of the river biota so that we can provide a clear context for the first two items. Substantial progress has been made in developing and adapting conceptual models of river systems, research into processes is being initiated even in some remote, sparsely populated catchments, and much has been learned about the history and distribution of the flora and fauna. Key challenges remain in consolidating reliable empirical relationships between biodiversity and the surrogate variables used to measure it, estimating the rates of biodiversity change likely to accrue from climate change over the next millennium, and identifying biodiversity "hot spots" particularly for less than charismatic species.

T1  - The assessment of biofilm community composition on plumbing materials in filtered and unfiltered water distribution systems
AN  - 18761976; 5635669
AB  - Biofilms have been extensively characterised within drinking water distribution systems. However, the significance of materials on biofilm species diversity is not established. This study investigated the community composition of biofilms on plumbing materials receiving filtered and unfiltered water supplies. Biofilms were extracted from polybutylene, polyethylene, cross-linked polyethylene, unplasticised polyvinyl chloride and copper tubes in sampling rigs receiving Murray-Onkaparinga water before or after filtration. Biofilms were extracted and analysed for fatty acid composition using the FAME super(TM) methodology. There were differences in the fatty acid profiles of biofilms and the respective water supplies, indicating differences in the attached and planktonic communities. The results also showed significant differences in the fatty acid profiles of biofilms on the polymer materials compared to copper, suggesting variations in biofilm populations on the different materials. The potential for materials to select for microbial populations has significant implications for the ecology of drinking water biofilms.

T1  - Variation in propensity to defend by reproductive gall morphs in two species of gall-forming thrips
AN  - 18755193; 5630486
AB  - Six species of Australian phleaothripine gall forming thrips on Acacia have two morphs. One morph, referred to as a soldier, has reduced antennae and wings and greatly enlarged fore femora, which are thought to be adaptations for gall defence. For most species, female soldier morphs have reduced reproductive output relative to dispersing females and these species have been regarded as eusocial. We examine defensive behaviour of soldier morphs using in situ presentation of gall invading kleptoparasites. We show that the gall-morph of Oncothrips tepperi attack kleptoparasites more often (N = 87 interactions, n = 11 attacks) than does the gall-morph of Oncothrips morrisi (N = 231, n = 1). This difference in proclivity for defence is coincident with a lower reproductive output by the gall-morph in O. tepperi compared to O. morrisi. Our results also show an almost complete absence of attack behaviour by the gall-morph of O. morrisi. Lastly, we show that there is no difference in proclivity for defence between soldier and foundress morphs of O. tepperi. These observations taken together call into question the suitability of the term 'soldier' as applied to the gall-morph of the gall-forming thrips of Australia.

T1  - Comparison of temperate and tropical rainforest tree species: growth responses to temperature
AN  - 18674634; 5574379
AB  - To investigate whether the latitudinal distribution of rainforest trees in Australia can be explained by their growth responses to temperature. The rainforest canopy trees Acmena smithii (Poir.) Merrill & Perry, Alstonia scholaris (L.) R. Br., Castanospermum australe Cunn. & C. Fraser ex Hook., Eucryphia lucida (Labill.) Baill., Heritiera trifoliolata (F. Muell.) Kosterm., Nothofagus cunninghamii (Hook.) Oerst., Sloanea woollsii F. Muell. and Tristaniopsis laurina (Sm.) Wilson & Waterhouse were selected to cover the latitudinal range of rainforests in eastern Australia. Seedlings of these species were grown under a range of day/night temperature regimes (14/6, 19/11, 22/14, 25/17, and 30/22 degree C) in controlled-environment cabinets. These seedlings were harvested after 16 weeks to determine differences in growth rate and biomass allocation among species and temperature regimes. The temperate species showed maximum growth at lower temperatures than the tropical species. However, there was considerable overlap in the growth rates of the temperate and tropical rainforest types across the temperature range used. Maximum growth of the tropical rainforest types was associated with changes in biomass allocation whereas the temperate rainforest types showed no significant changes in biomass allocation across the temperature range. All species showed temperatures for maximum growth that were considerably higher than those previously shown for maximum net photosynthesis. The growth responses to temperature of the rainforest species under these experimental conditions provided limited evidence for their restriction to certain latitudes. These growth responses to temperature showed that the physiological assumptions used in various types of vegetation-climate models may not be true of Australian rainforest trees.

T1  - Explicit Schemes for Dam-Break Simulations
AN  - 18654025; 5559578
AB  - Dam-break problems involve the formation of shocks and rarefaction fans. The performance of 20 explicit numerical schemes used to solve the shallow water wave equations for simulating the dam-break problem is examined. Results from these schemes have been compared with analytical solutions to the dam-break problem with finite water depth and dry bed downstream of the dam. Most of the numerical schemes produce reasonable results for subcritical flows. Their performance for problems where there is a transition between subcritical and supercritical flows is mixed. Although many numerical schemes satisfy the Rankine-Hugoniot condition, some produce solutions which do not satisfy the entropy condition, producing nonphysical solutions. This was the case for the majority of first-order schemes examined. Numerical schemes which consider critical flow in the solution are guaranteed to produce entropy satisfying solutions. Second-order schemes avoid the generation of expansive shocks; however, some form of flux or slope limiter must be used to eliminate oscillations that are associated with these schemes. These limiters increase the complexity and the computational effort required, but they are generally more accurate than their first-order counterparts. The limiters employed by these second-order schemes will produce monotone or total variation diminishing solutions for scalar equations. Some limiters do not exhibit these properties when they are applied to the nonlinear shallow water wave equations. This comparative study shows that there are a variety of shock-capturing numerical schemes that are efficient, accurate, robust, and are suitable for solving the shallow water wave equations when discontinuities are encountered in the problem.

T1  - Sterols in microorganisms
AN  - 18652721; 5554368
AB  - Sterols are vital components of all eukaryotic cells. This review describes the variety of sterol structures found in microalgae, yeasts, fungi, protozoans and microheterotrophs. Reports of the occurrence of sterols in prokaryotic cells are critically assessed. Methylotrophic bacteria contain unusual 4-methylsterols, but reports of 4-desmethyl sterols in cyanobacteria and other bacteria are limited and many of these seem dubious. Possible application areas for sterols derived from mass culture of microalgae and other microorganisms are highlighted.

T1  - A novel two-step method for the formation of tissue-engineered cartilage by mature bovine chondrocytes: the alginate-recovered-chondrocyte (ARC) method
AN  - 18642426; 5549941
AB  - Most attempts to tissue-engineer cartilage have involved seeding of cultured cells into a biological or synthetic scaffold. We have developed a novel two- step culture approach that makes possible the in vitro formation of cartilaginous-like tissue by mature adult bovine chondrocytes without the aid of a synthetic matrix. The first step consists of culturing chondrocytes under conditions that maintain their rounded shape and their molecular phenotype as assessed by type II collagen and aggrecan production. This step was accomplished by culturing the isolated chondrocytes in alginate beads until the cells have reestablished a proteoglycan-rich cell-associated matrix (CM). The second step consists of culturing the cells with their CM, after recovery from the beads, on a tissue culture insert with a porous membrane. In this study, young adult bovine articular chondrocytes were cultured in alginate beads in the presence of 10% or 20% fetal bovine serum (FBS). After 7 days of culture, the alginate beads were dissolved by incubating the beads for 20 min in sodium citrate buffer, a calcium chelator. Following a brief centrifugation, the cells with their CM were recovered, resuspended in medium containing 10% or 20% FBS and seeded onto a tissue culture insert. After 1 week of culture on the insert, the individual cells with their CM progressively became incorporated into a mass of cartilaginous tissue. Culture with 20% FBS resulted in the best formation of tissues. These tissues, easily recovered from the insert, were then subjected to biochemical and histological analyses. The biochemical results showed that the chondrocytes remain phenotypically stable in the tissues. The de novo tissue has a relatively high ratio of PG/collagen. Histological examination of the tissue revealed it contained a cartilage-like matrix strongly stained with toluidine blue. This scaffold-free system appears ideal to study, in vitro, the development of transplantable cartilaginous tissue.

T1  - Competition between Eucalyptus victrix seedlings and grass species
AN  - 18641970; 5544789
AB  - Competition in a natural system may be interspecific or intraspecific. In semiarid ecosystems, competition for resources between established neighboring grass species and newly recruited seedlings is very high. To examine the effects of grass species density, growing space and time of establishment on Eucalyptus victrix seedlings (interspecific competition), and the effect of density and growing space within E. victrix (intraspecific competition) we conducted an experiment under controlled conditions. We tested four hypotheses (i) E. victrix seedling growth is not affected by grass density; (ii) there is no difference in E. victrix survival and growth between early and later grass establishment; (iii) interspecific competition is not more intense than intraspecific competition in E. victrix; and (iv) growth of E. victrix seedlings is not dependent on available growing space. In a monoculture of E. victrix, seedling mortality was higher (10%) in large pots. In mixed culture pots, where E. victrix seedlings and grass seedlings were planted on the same day, E. victrix seedlings survived for up to 4 weeks, but started to die after week five in the smallest pots. However, mortalities occurred in pots of all sizes when grass was established before E. victrix seedlings. Results also indicated that the resources necessary for the growth of individual E. victrix seedlings were more limiting under conditions of increased density of neighboring grass species rather than intraspecific competition. In particular, photosynthetic area of E. victrix seedlings was drastically reduced in mixed cultures. Although density, pot size and time of planting had impacts on E. victrix seedlings, the patterns of these impacts were variable.

T1  - Phenotypic and Genotypic Characterization of Provisional Serotype Shigella flexneri 1c and Clonal Relationships with 1a and 1b Strains Isolated in Bangladesh
AN  - 18638884; 5547115
AB  - The serotypes of 144 strains of Shigella flexneri serotype 1 (serotypes 1a, 1b, and 1c) isolated from patients attending the Dhaka treatment center of the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh, between 1997 and 2001 were serologically confirmed by using commercially available antisera and a panel of monoclonal antibodies specific for S. flexneri group and type factor antigen (MASF). Among serotype 1 isolates, the prevalence of provisional serotype S. flexneri 1c increased from 0 to 56% from 1978 to 2001 in Bangladesh. Detailed biochemical studies revealed that none of the strains of serotype 1 produced indole, while all the strains fermented mannose, mannitol, and trehalose. Twenty percent of the serotype 1c and all the serotype 1a strains fermented maltose and 53% of the serotype 1c strains and 60% of the serotype 1a strains fermented arabinose, whereas all serotype 1b strains were negative for fermentation of these sugars. Only 18% of serotype 1b strains were resistant to nalidixic acid, and most of the serotype 1c and 1b strains were resistant to ampicillin, tetracycline, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. All the strains of serotypes 1a and 1b and about 88% of the serotype 1c strains were found to be invasive by the Sereny test, had a 140-MDa plasmid, and had Congo red absorption ability. Plasmid profile analysis showed that 26% of the strains of serotype 1 contained identical patterns. Most of the serotype 1c strains (72%) had the 1.6-MDa plasmid, which was not found in either serotype 1a or 1b strains. A self-transmissible middle-range plasmid (35 to 80 MDa) was found in some strains carrying the multiple-antibiotic-resistance gene. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis analysis yielded three types (types A, B, and C) with numerous subtypes among the serotype 1c strains, whereas serotypes 1b and 1a yielded only one type for each serotype, and those types were related to the types for serotype 1c strains. Ribotyping analysis yielded three patterns for serotype 1c strains and one pattern each for serotype 1a and 1b strains which were similar to the patterns for the serotype 1c strains. Overall analysis of the results concluded that subserotype 1c is closely related to serotypes 1a and 1b. Furthermore, the high rate of prevalence of serotype 1c necessitates the commercial production of antibody against this subserotype to allow the determination of the actual burden of shigellosis caused by provisional serotype 1c.

T1  - Interactive effects of nitrogen and irradiance on sustained xanthophyll cycle engagement in Eucalyptus nitens leaves during winter
AN  - 18638606; 5540564
AB  - Eucalyptus nitens is a species that is adapted to low temperature. This study examines xanthophyll-cycle engagement in E. nitens seedlings exposed to cold-induced photoinhibitory conditions under different levels of irradiance and nutrient status. Xanthophyll-cycle pool size indicated an increased requirement for light energy dissipation under high irradiance and low nutrient status. Greater sensitivity to photoinhibition of non-shaded seedlings indicated that sustained xanthophyll-cycle engagement may occur in response to damaged chlorophyll. Within irradiance treatments, fertilised seedlings had higher photochemical efficiency and faster recovery from photoinhibition than unfertilised seedlings. These results demonstrate that fertilised compared to unfertilised seedlings can utilise a greater proportion of incident light under cold temperature conditions

T1  - Wetlands management in Vietnam's Mekong Delta: an overview of the pressures and responses
AN  - 18063232; 6016885
AB  - This paper introduces the characteristics of the Mekong Delta and outlines the pressures that are impinging on the sustainability of the Delta's wetlands. Although these pressures are non-linear and interacting, three are considered prominent. These pressures stem largely from rice production and the associated large scale water control infrastructures, shrimp aquaculture, and the inadequacy of the current institutional arrangements. Responses to these pressures are discussed noting the diverse interventions made in the past and the present. Key points raised by authors in the succeeding chapters in this volume are highlighted and a short description of the WorldFish Center project is provided.

T1  - Decline of tactile acuity in aging: a study of body site, blood flow, and lifetime habits of smoking and physical activity
AN  - 17975579; 5934338
AB  - Tactile acuity of 60 older subjects ( greater than or equal to 65 years) and 19 younger subjects (18-28 years) was assessed by two-point gap thresholds at the upper and lower surfaces of the forefinger, at the upper and lower surfaces of the feet, and at the volar surface of the forearm. The older subjects were assigned to one of four groups of 15 subjects each, depending on reported lifetime habits of physical activity and smoking: (1) active smokers, (2) active nonsmokers, (3) inactive smokers, and (4) inactive nonsmokers. Peripheral blood flow was assessed at the forefinger, foot, and forearm by means of laser-Doppler imaging and skin temperature recordings, under resting conditions and during and after a 5-min exposure to mild cooling (28 degree C). Consistent with previous studies, tactile acuity thresholds in the foot and finger averaged about 80% higher in the older subjects than in the younger subjects, but only about 22% higher in the forearm. Although the upper surface of the fingertip was more sensitive than the lower surface in both younger and older subjects, the age-related decline in tactile acuity was nearly identical on both sides of the finger and foot. The latter finding refutes the hypothesis that the larger effect of aging in the extremities results from greater physical wear and tear on the contact surfaces of the hands and feet. Self-reported lifetime histories of physical activity and smoking were not significantly associated with measures of cutaneous blood flow or tactile thresholds. Possible reasons for this lack of association are discussed, including the inherent limitations of testing only healthy older subjects, and the concept of "successful aging".

T1  - Access and competition in the water industry
AN  - 17796293; 5749698
AB  - Access regimes, coupled with entry in the contestable sectors of the relevant industries, have facilitated substantial competition in the electricity and gas industries in many countries, but water has yet to benefit from such competition. In the UK, access codes in the water industry have been in place since September 2000, and a bill is currently before the UK Parliament to open the retailing and abstraction sectors of the water industry to competition. Will the UK, and other countries which subsequently follow it in reform, be likely to see substantial increases in competition in the water industry as a result of these reforms? This paper argues that it will not, as water is an economically different product to electricity and gas, with few of the attributes inherent in electricity and gas which have attracted entry to the competitive sectors of these industries. Moreover, potential environmental externalities associated with access regimes in water, but not in electricity and gas, suggest caution before establishing comprehensive access regimes in water.

T1  - Sustainability of support for community forestry in Nepal
AN  - 17683157; 5900894
AB  - A system of community forestry was developed during the late 70's to preserve the degraded hills of Nepal and to provide basic needs of forestry products to the rural people. The Community Forestry programme has received the highest priority within the forestry sector in Nepal and is regarded as one of the most successful development programmes in Nepal. However, recent studies are claiming that under Community Forestry; traditional users have lost their use rights and many of the poor have been marginalized - for example by way of fees and charges imposed to them. The issue of self-reliance to run the programme without external support is equally important. Currently only about 27 percent of potential community forest area has been handed over to the local communities, leaving a significant amount still to be handed over. Even so, the productive management of all of the forest areas already handed over is a great challenge requiring large amounts of current resources and a huge commitment from both the Government and the communities in the future. The paper discusses the issues of membership charges in community forests and the means to allocate the financial resources needed to run the programme. The creation of Forestry Development Funds in the districts could be a sustainable approach to running the Community Forestry programme in Nepal.

T1  - How important is natural capital in terms of sustaining real output? Revisiting the natural capital/human-made capital substitutability debate
AN  - 17299436; 6047731
AB  - This paper revisits the natural capital/human-made capital substitutability debate by putting forward a production function incorporating the first and second laws of thermodynamics. Use of this alternative production function shows that, where relevant, the elasticity of substitution between natural capital and human-made capital is less than one. Moreover, as attempts are made to increase the stock of human-made capital to offset the depletion of natural capital, the elasticity of substitution moves closer to zero. This suggests three things. First, even if one focuses entirely on resource availability and ignores the need for waste assimilative and life-support services, human-made capital cannot serve as a substitute for natural capital. Second, since a given quantity of real output requires an irreducible quantity of resource input, there is a need to maintain a minimum stock of resource-providing natural capital. Third, natural resource policy and national income measurements should be based on a strong rather than weak sustainability stance.

T1  - Monitoring Framework for Nitrogen Dioxide Measurement in a Tropical City: A Bangkok Case Study
AN  - 16172486; 5892316
AB  - This study addresses a useful and simple way of assessing nitrogen dioxide (NO sub(2)) concentrations measured at six monitoring stations in Bangkok Metropolitan Region (BMR), during January to December 2001. The measurements are further interpreted using correlationship between NO sub(2) concentrations and with traffic characteristics, street geometries, and meteorological parameters. Variations in diurnal and seasonal NO sub(2) levels are also identified. The finding shows that the measured NO sub(2) concentrations range from 55 mu g m super(-3) at the Yaowarat urban site to 26 mu g m super(-3) at the Phahonyothin suburban site. The monitoring method has important implications for general applicability to other tropical cities.

T1  - Reutilization of wastewater in a rubber-based processing factory: a case study in Southern Thailand
AN  - 16159520; 5595177
AB  - After Malaysia, Thailand is the world second largest exporter of natural rubber. However, the processing of natural rubber prior to manufacture into rubber products requires excessive use of groundwater for its operation and discharges considerable quantities of wastewater. Overexploitation of groundwater from aquifer creates a serious threat to the source of potable water supply. Therefore, there is much need to develop sustainable practices for the improvement of in-plant wastewater control and recycling management. The overall water balance for the whole factory shows that 70% of the wastewater is generated from the washing process and ends up in the wastewater treatment plant. With the aim to reduce raw water consumption and amount of wastewater discharge to a nearby river, the concepts of water conservation and wastewater reuse are incorporated as a package of the improved wastewater treatment system. For water reuse purpose, an activated sludge plant coupled with anaerobic and aerobic systems is recommended to upgrade the existing wastewater treatment system. By employing rock bed filtration for polishing effluent of treatment plant, raw water consumption is reduced by 69% and achieves a 77% reduction in the water discharged to the river.

T1  - Identifying potential marine pests--a deductive approach applied to Australia
AN  - 16142673; 5547700
AB  - Introduced marine organisms continue to threaten coastal resources around the world. Many agencies rely on lists of potentially harmful species for risk assessment and to prioritise management responses to an incursion. This study outlines a deductive hazard assessment technique to identify potential marine pests that may arrive via ballast water and/or hull fouling. This technique is then applied in an Australian context to identify potential 'next pests' for this region. An extensive literature review identified 851 introduced marine species from around the world. The following selection criteria were then applied to develop a next pest list: (a) the species has been reported in a shipping vector or has a ship-mediated invasion history; (b) the vector still exists; (c) the species is responsible for economic or environmental harm; and, (d) it is exotic to Australia or present in Australia but subject to official control. The selection criteria are transparent and consistent with other international and national biosecurity initiatives. Thirty three of the species identified in the initial literature review satisfied all four selection criteria. These species are described here together with their associated vectors and impacts.

T1  - Global Climate Change: the Kyoto Protocol
AN  - 14648852; 10637943
AB  - The Kyoto Protocol would commit the US to a target of reducing greenhouse gases by 7% below 1990 levels during the 2008-12 commitment period. The collapse of the sixth Conference of the Parties (COP) during November 2000 in The Hague, the Netherlands, which was intended to finalize operational rules of the protocol, is discussed. The Bush Administration indicated its rejection of the protocol in March 2001 and announced a cabinet-level review of climate policy. Most operational decisions were completed at the COP-7 meeting in Morocco in October-November 2001. As of January 2003, 102 nations had ratified the Kyoto Protocol, representing 43.9% of the emissions of industrial nations with obligations outlined in the treaty. To enter into force, the protocol must be ratified by nations representing 55% of these emissions.

T1  - Mining on Federal Lands
AN  - 14648688; 10637923
AB  - Proposals to reform the General Mining Law of 1972 will likely be reintroduced during the 108th Congress. The need to balance mineral development with competing land uses will be considered, along with mining millsites, the claim-patent system, and hardrock mining operations on federal lands. Congress recently retained the mining patent moratorium for one year and extended the $100 per claim annual maintenance fee for 2 yr. The proposed 2002 Abandoned Hardrock Mines Reclamation Act would establish a reclamation fund financed by reclamation fees imposed on hardrock mineral producers.

T1  - Automobile and Light Truck Fuel Economy Standards: the CAFE Standards
AN  - 14648638; 10637921
AB  - Efforts to raise the corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) for automobiles and light duty trucks have provoked controversy in Congress. In the 107th Congress, US House legislation called for a reduction of 5 billion gal in light-duty truck fuel consumption over the period of model years 2004-10. US Senate legislation called for the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to develop new CAFE standards. This bill also included language to freeze pickup trucks at the current light truck standard of 20.7 mpg. Conferees agreed to the House-passed goal of saving 5 billion gal but shifted the window th model years 2006-12. In December 2002, NHTSA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking to boost the CAFE of light-duty trucks by 1.5 mpg by 2007, an action that may reduce the potential for CAFE to be included in any omnibus legislation introduced in the 108th Congress.

T1  - Clean Air Act Issues in the 107th Congress
AN  - 14648536; 10637945
AB  - The most important air quality issue in the 107th Congress was whether state and federal regulations designed to protect air quality are exerting an adverse impact on energy production. Debate focused on whether New Source Review requirements have been enforced consistently, whether they have prevented power plants from making improvements that would expand power output, and whether Congress should enact multi-pollutant legislation for power plants. The US Senate approved S. 950 to ban methyl tert butyl ether use in gasoline and provide additional funding for groundwater cleanup. Similar provisions, plus requirements that motor vehicle fuel contain ethanol or other renewable fuels, were included in the comprehensive energy bill passed by the US Senate in April 2002.

AB  - President Bush signed into law the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act in June 2002, which authorizes funds needed for enhanced USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) inspection activities in FY2003 and beyond. Federally inspected slaughtering and processing plants now operate under the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) inspection system intended to prevent meat contamination by microbial pathogens during the manufacturing chain. Foodborne illness outbreaks starting in the spring of 2002 indicate ongoing difficulty in preventing product contamination. As a result, the 107th Congress introduced legislation to give FSIS mandatory recall authority.

AB  - Key issues on the transportation agenda of the 108th Congress are highlighted in terms of budget, highway and transit reauthorization, aviation reauthorization, transportation security, Amtrak, airline industry financial turmoil, and environmental issues. A major issue in the FY2003 budget has been a provision of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century, the revenue aligned budget authority, which provides a mechanism to adjust amounts in the highway account, but not the transit account, to reflect increased/decreased receipts in highway-generated revenues. The 108th Congress will likely address the issue of reauthorization for FAA programs beyond FY2003.

T1  - Exposure to Indoor Pesticides During Pregnancy in a Multiethnic, Urban Cohort
AN  - 14648352; 10637331
AB  - The effects of exposure to indoor pesticides on fetal growth and neurodevelopment were examined in a cohort of infants delivered at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City. The study included 386 mothers who gave birth between May 1998 and July 2001. Data on indoor pesticide exposure were obtained via questionnaire and by analyzing maternal urinary pesticide metabolites. Results revealed that almost half of the mothers reported using pesticides inside the home during pregnancy, and a total of 72.3% of the study group was classified as having been exposed. The three main metabolites measured were 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol, 3-phenoxybenzoic acid, and pentachlorophenol, with median concentrations of 11.3, 19.3, and 7.3 mu g/g creatinine, respectively. No association was found between the questionnaire and metabolite data. Significant temporal variations were observed only for urinary 3-phenoxybenzoic acid, which were consistent with seasonal spraying of pyrethroid pesticides.

T1  - Lessons from the Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDEs): Precautionary Principle, Primary Prevention, and the Value of Community-Based Body-Burden Monitoring Using Breast Milk
AN  - 14648098; 10637335
AB  - Data from a number of published studies are cited in an examination of the value of body-burden monitoring of persistent organic pollutants, including polybrominated diphenyl ethers, using breast milk. The advantages of body-burden monitoring are outlined, as are the advantages of community-based monitoring and the advantages of using breast milk. It is argued that breast milk provides data on background levels, hot spots, and time trends in exposure. The value of breast-feeding education is stressed, which can enhance the health of infants and children by limiting exposure to environmental chemicals.

T1  - In Ovo Exposure to o,p'-DDE Affects Sexual Development But Not Sexual Differentiation in Japanese Medaka (Oryzias latipes)
AN  - 14648034; 10637324
AB  - Environmentally relevant concentrations of o,p'-DDE were injected into early stage embryos of Japanese medaka Oryzias latipes, and effects on sexual differentiation and development were monitored. The exposure concentrations were 0, 0.5, 0.05, and 0.005 ng/embryo, administered in triolein. Results showed that survival decreased with increasing exposure dose, but fish exposed to the highest concentration were significantly larger than the other fish. For both males and females, gonadosomatic index values were related inversely to o,p'-DDE exposure. No sex reversal or intersexes were caused by the exposures, but females exhibited gonadal abnormalities, showing few vitellogenic oocytes and increased incidence of atresia. In treated males, testes were markedly smaller than controls.

AB  - Daily mortality data for lower British Columbia, Canada, which includes Vancouver, were obtained for the period 199496 and related to mean hourly pollutant concentration data and meteorological data. Vancouver has low levels of air pollution relative to other large urban areas. The data were examined using single- and two-pollutant models. The most notable effects on mortality were those associated with increases in ozone concentrations, which were least strongly associated with the other pollutants. An effect of PM sub(10) was present for respiratory mortality in the summer and for total mortality in the winter.

AB  - Water use conflicts are evident in the western US, where population is expected to increase by 30% in the next 20-50 yr and where urban needs are often at odds with agricultural needs. The 108th Congress will likely address several water resource bills, including appropriations for USACE and USBR for FY2003 and FY2004, a Water Resources Development bill for 2003, and different agency policy and program changes. Additional issues encompass the question of the future role of traditional water resource agencies in an era of evolving public demands, declining budgets, and integrated environmental resource management.

T1  - Wetland Issues
AN  - 14647595; 10637928
AB  - Federal laws, such as the permit program authorized in section 404 of the Clean Water Act, provide varying levels of wetland protection. Although the rate of wetland loss has slowed, these laws and their implementation are viewed by many protection advocates as inadequate or uncoordinated. The 107th Congress enacted wetland legislation in the 2002 farm bill and in the North American Wetlands Conservation Act reauthorization. Wetlands issues have recently involved controversy over whether the rate of wetlands loss is acceptable, how to implement farm bill provisions, and whether to modify the Clean Water Act's permit program.

AB  - The 108th Congress is expected to consider legislation or conduct oversight on many NPS-related issues. Key issues encompass the NPS multi-billion dollar maintenance backlog, personal watercraft and snowmobile use in park lands, aircraft overflights over the Grand Canyon, and the recreational fee demonstration program. Congress may consider legislation to amend the National Trails System Act to include a new category of trails and to authorize studies of routes for possible additions to the system. Measures to study, designate, and fund heritage areas and to establish a process for designating and managing these areas will also be weighed.

AN  - 14647184; 10637326
AB  - National maps of Bayesian estimates of relative rates of mortality due to exposure to particulate matter were created, which were obtained by spatially smoothing the maximum likelihood estimates of relative rates of mortality, taking into account the statistical error in each city's relative rate estimate and the evidence of heterogeneity among the true relative rates. The National Morbidity Mortality Air Pollution Study data base was used, with the data analyzed with a two-stage Bayesian hierarchical model. The relative rates of total, cardiovascularrespiratory diseases, and other causes of mortality were larger in the northeastern US and in regions of southern California.

T1  - Predicting Children's Short-Term Exposure to Pesticides: Results of a Questionnaire Screening Approach
AN  - 14645071; 10637337
AB  - The Minnesota Children's Pesticide Exposure Study was one of the first attempts to conduct a home-based exposure assessment by measuring multipathway exposures to multiple pesticides in a cross-sectional probability study. The study used a stratified random sampling strategy to select the families. In this study, data from the Minnesota study were used to examine whether questionnaire responses regarding general household pesticide use predicted children's exposure to four target compounds over the short term. The initial study is described. The chemicals included atrazine, chlorpyrifos, diazinon, and malathion. Logistic regression and ordinary least-squares regression were used to test whether higher assigned household pesticide-screening scores were associated with higher measured pesticide concentrations for the sampling media. Results suggested that the use of subjective pesticide-screening scores to preferentially select higher pesticide-use households failed to identify households with higher concentrations as well as children with higher short-term pesticide exposures. The possible reasons for the findings are discussed.

T1  - Bisphenol A Levels in Human Urine
AN  - 14645035; 10637334
AB  - Urinary bisphenol A levels were measured in a number of university students identified via questionnaire regarding smoking and tea and coffee consumption, among other habits and behaviors. The analytical protocol is detailed. Fifty students were studied in 1992, and 56 were studied in 1999. In the 1992 sample, urinary levels of both total and conjugated bisphenol A were higher in students who consumed elevated amounts of coffee and/or tea, but no such trend was discerned in the 1999 sample. The presence of bisphenol A in urine was not associated with smoking, alcohol intake, or dietary habits.

T1  - The Natural Resources and Environment Function in the FY2003 Federal Budget: an Overview of Programs and Funding
AN  - 14645032; 10637940
AB  - Funding for natural resource and environmental activities is provided by Function 300 of the federal budget. Funding is allocated for pollution control and abatement, water resources, conservation and land management, recreational resources, and other activities such as research and technical support. The Bush Administration requested $29.97 billion in budget authority and $30.60 billion in outlays for these activities in FY2003. Due to large differences in overall funding, the 107th Congress did not reach a bicameral agreement on the FY2003 budget resolution, and consideration of FY2003 appropriations for most federal programs, including those under Function 300, were not completed, either.

T1  - South Florida Ecosystem Restoration and the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan
AN  - 14645011; 10637938
AB  - Flood control projects and land development have halved the size of the Everglades ecosystem. As part of a larger restoration program for south Florida, USACE and other agencies collaborated to develop a Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP). CERP consists of 68 projects estimated to take 36 yr and $7.8 billion to complete, with emphasis on increasing storage of wet season waters to provide more water during the dry system for urban and agricultural users as well as for the natural system. The 2000 Water Resources Development Act authorizes appropriations for initial construction projects and their maintenance. Issues associated with CERP, including development of programmatic regulations, timely completion, and coordination of restoration efforts, are surveyed.

T1  - Production of Proinflammatory Mediators by Indoor Air Bacteria and Fungal Spores in Mouse and Human Cell Lines
AN  - 14644875; 10637332
AB  - Using human and mouse macrophages and human lung epithelial cells, the cytotoxic and inflammatory potentials of selected fungal and bacterial strains were investigated. The strains, which were considered to be important in indoor environments, included Aspergillus versicolor, Stachybotrys chartarum, Penicillium spinulosum, Streptomyces californicus, Bacillus cereus, and Pseudomonas fluorescens. The bacteria and fungi were compared in terms of their ability to trigger production of nitric oxide and the proinflammatory cytokines, tumor necrosis factor- alpha and interleukins 1 beta and 6. Results showed that P. fluorescens and S. californicus triggered profound effects in murine and human cells, whereas spores of the fungi did not induce strong inflammatory responses. Time- and dose-dependent production of interleukin-6 in all three cell lines was induced only by S. californicus, which also caused, along with P. fluorescens, strong inflammatory responses assessed as NO. In contrast to the bacterial strains, the spores of the fungal strains induced only a slight cytokine and NO production.

T1  - Comparison of Polychlorinated Biphenyl Levels Across Studies of Human Neurodevelopment
AN  - 14644838; 10637329
AB  - An analysis was performed of the relative levels of exposure in all studies of background-level PCB exposure and neurodevelopment. The PCB levels were expressed in a uniform manner using a combination of data from original investigators, laboratory reanalyses, calculations based on published data, and expert opinion, and the PCB levels were then compared across studies to assess the extent to which true or technical differences accounted for the variation in results. Ten studies were analyzed, focusing on the levels of PCB 153 in material pregnancy serum. The studies are tabulated. Results indicated that the distribution of exposure in the studies overlapped significantly. The exposure levels in the Faroe Islands study were significantly higher than those found in other studies, while the levels in two recent US studies were significantly lower. The coefficient of variation among the ten studies exceeded that expected due to interlaboratory differences, suggesting that the exposure levels in the Faroe Islands and US studies were truly different from the others.

T1  - Relationship Between Reproductive Success and Male Plasma Vitellogenin Concentrations in Cunner, Tautogolabrus adspersus
AN  - 14644615; 10637333
AB  - In the laboratory, cunner Tautogolabrus adspersus were exposed to different concentrations of 17 beta -estradiol, 17 alpha -ethynylestradiol, or estrone, and effects on egg production, egg viability, egg fertility, sperm motility, male gonadosomatic index, and male plasma vitellogenin concentrations were studied. All of the estrogens were implanted at nominal concentrations of 0.05, 0.5, or 2.5 mg/kg fish. The highest male vitellogenin concentrations were recorded in fish treated with the highest nominal concentration of the estrogens, and in both short- and long-term experiments, vitellogenin was induced to a higher extent by 17 alpha -ethynylestradiol. Egg fertility and egg viability, however, were not correlated significantly with male plasma vitellogenin concentrations, while male gonadosomatic index exhibited a weak but significant negative correlation with male plasma vitellogenin concentrations. Total egg production exhibited a weak but significant correlation with male plasma vitellogenin concentrations.

T1  - Pathogen Survival Trajectories: an Eco-Environmental Approach to the Modeling of Human Campylobacteriosis Ecology
AN  - 14644590; 10637323
AB  - Traditionally, the focus of disease modeling has been centered on the concepts of host population dynamics and the mechanisms of person-to-person spread. Using campylobacteriosis as an example, an alternative modeling approach is proposed, which focuses on eco-environmental processes. The approach integrates the epidemiologic and microbiologic literature to provide insight into the ecology of the illness, describing the ecology of campylobacteriosis from the perspective of a pathogen's survival as it moves through the environment. Survival in the environment is used as the mechanism to quantify human exposure. As the postexcretion of pathogens defines the ecology of campylobacteriosis, three general nonoccupational pathogen survival trajectories are identified: direct exposure to feces; exposure through food consumption, food processing, or food preparation activities; or exposure through aquatic environments. Each of the mechanisms has associated ecologic filters that provide natural public heath intervention points.

T1  - Energy Tax Policy
AN  - 14644482; 10637948
AB  - The history, current status, and outlook for federal energy tax policy are addressed. The Clinton Administration's energy tax policy focused on reducing petroleum demand through incentives for energy efficiency and alternative fuels. While the George W. Bush Administration originally criticized energy taxes as inconsistent with its free market philosophy, it issued a comprehensive energy policy in 2001, and a global climate change initiative in 2002, which included limited energy tax measures. Both the US Senate and House versions of H.R. 4 omnibus energy legislation included energy tax measures for qualifying energy producers and consumers, but no agreement on the bill's provisions was reached.

T1  - Chemical Plant Security
AN  - 14644440; 10637942
AB  - Chemical facilities might be vulnerable to direct attacks by terrorists or covert use of business contacts and facilities to gain access to potentially dangerous chemicals. The Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act and Clean Air Act require planning to protect the public from accidental releases of hazardous chemicals from chemical plants. The Acts mandate disclosure of chemical hazards in order to stimulate public interest in planning, but neither addresses releases due to terrorism. Policy makers face three key issues: the effect of public disclosure, the relative importance of diverse risks, and who should be responsible for achieving results. Relevant legislation introduced in the 107th Congress is discussed.

T1  - Public (BLM) Lands and National Forests
AN  - 14644363; 10637912
AB  - The 108th Congress is likely to address issues related to public lands managed by USBLM and forests managed by USFS. A major issue is how to balance protection and development of these lands. Congress is debating levels of fire funds for FY2003 and supplemental funds for FY2002, and the Bush Administration's Healthy Forests Initiative seeks to protect communities from wildfires by reducing fuels. Revised statute (R.S.) 2477 grants rights of way for highways across unreserved federal lands; the Administration recently finalized regulations on disclaimers of interest for clearing title to R.S. 2477 highway easements.

T1  - Nuclear Energy Policy
AN  - 14644337; 10637926
AB  - Radioactive waste management, R&D priorities, power plant safety and regulation, and terrorism are nuclear energy policy issues facing Congress. The Bush Administration has stressed the importance of nuclear power in US energy policy but has requested relatively little additional R&D funding. Bills introduced, but not passed, in the 107th Congress to encourage growth of nuclear power are surveyed. In May 2002, the US House passed a resolution to overturn the state of Nevada's veto on the use of Yucca Mountain as a permanent high-level waste repository, allowing further activity to proceed.

T1  - Superfund and Brownfields in the 107th Congress
AN  - 14644326; 10637911
AB  - H.R. 2869 was enacted in January 2002 to establish EPA's brownfields program and to provide relief from Superfund liability for small businesses. The Act creates a $200 million/yr brownfield cleanup program and provides $50 million for state programs. Future funding of CERCLA is a basic issue, as the taxing authority that supported the Superfund trust fund in 1995. The FY2002 appropriation for the Superfund program is $1.27 billion. The US House also passed H.R. 2941, which renders HUD brownfield grants more accessible to a larger number of communities.

T1  - TimeLocation Analysis for Exposure Assessment Studies of Children Using a Novel Global Positioning System Instrument
AN  - 14643930; 10637336
AB  - The development of a Global Positioning System (GPS) for monitoring children's exposure to environmental contaminants is detailed, and results are presented from pilot tests of the unit. Experiments were conducted to assess spatial resolution, reception efficiency in several environments, and major sources of signal interference, and the GPS units were then employed in a field study to determine the feasibility of using the technology to track the movements of young children over the course of a day. The GPS personal acquisition logger, which is described, was designed for use by a subject with no supervision required. Results showed that the resolution was quite good, but the units worked better outside than inside, and interference was significant when the units were in the vicinity of power substation transformers and operating microwave ovens. Results from the feasibility study showed that the technology is promising for quantifying timelocation activity patterns in exposure assessment studies.

T1  - Restructuring Nuclear Regulations
AN  - 14643794; 10637322
AB  - Three nuclear regulatory areas are identified that need to be examined and modified to improve regulatory effectiveness and efficiency. The regulations should be simplified to reduce costs of regulatory compliance and to alleviate the problems of confusion, public fear, and difficulty in public communication. The three recommendations for the simplification process, each of which is considered in turn, are: nuclear regulations should be dose- rather than risk-based; radiation quantities and units should be simplified to facilitate international communication and public understanding; and the regulatory framework should be reorganized within the federal government, with a single, independent office established to oversee nuclear regulations promulgated by federal agencies.

In the second session of the 107th Congress, Congressional committees approved legislation to reauthorize water infrastructure funding programs. Congress remains interested in implementation of an existing provision of CWA that requires states to set total maximum daily loads of pollution to ensure that water quality standards are attained. Congress also passed a bill with funding to clean up contaminated sediments in the Great Lakes.

AB  - Comprehensive electricity legislation involves reform of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 and mandatory purchase requirement provisions of the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 (PURPA). Many investor-owned utilities support repeal of the latter and argue that their state regulator's implementation of PURPA has forced them to pay contractually high prices for power that they do not need. Opponents of the repeal claim it would undermine competition and impede renewable energy development. In the 107th Congress the Senate-passed version of H.R. 4 omnibus energy legislation contained provisions for electric utility restructuring.

T1  - MTBE in Gasoline: Clean Air and Drinking Water Issues
AN  - 14642846; 10637933
AB  - The addition of methyl tert butyl ether (MTBE) to reformulated gasoline, as required under the Clean Air Act in 17 states, is credited with reducing air pollutant emission. However, incidents of drinking water pollution by MTBE, especially in California, have raised concerns and prompted calls for restrictions on its use. Major issues before Congress are whether MTBE use should be limited or phased out and whether the Clean Air Act provisions concerning reformulated gasoline should be modified to allow refiners to discontinue or reduce their use of oxygenates. Bills introduced to address these and related issues are discussed.

T1  - Global Climate Change
AN  - 14642827; 10637925
AB  - The 1992 UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, which was ratified by the US, called for a non-binding voluntary aim for industrial nations to control greenhouse gas concentrations by stabilizing emissions at 1990 levels by the year 2000. The 1997 Kyoto Protocol would commit the 38 major industrial states to specified, legally binding emission reductions. In March 2001, the Bush Administration rejected the protocol and chose to act only as observers. A new approach based on reducing the greenhouse as intensity of the US economy, and other voluntary measures plus increased climate research funding, were announced by the administration in February 2002.

T1  - Effect of Indoor Air Pollution from Biomass Combustion on Prevalence of Asthma in the Elderly
AN  - 14642790; 10637330
AB  - Data from India's second National Family Health Survey conducted in 199899 were used to examine the effect of cooking smoke on the prevalence of asthma among the elderly. Exposure to cooking smoke was ascertained indirectly by type of fuel used for cooking or heating. The data revealed that 10% of the elderly in India suffer from asthma, with the prevalence higher among elderly men than among elderly women and higher in rural areas than in urban areas. The unadjusted odds of suffering from asthma were almost two times higher among the elderly living in households using biomass fuels for cooking than among those living in households using cleaner fuels. The association remained strong, independent of exposure to tobacco smoke, age, education, living standard, and other factors. Active tobacco smoking, however, also had substantial effects, and effects of both cooking smoke and tobacco smoke were greater for women than for men.

T1  - Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon-Induced Cytotoxicity in Cultured Rat Sertoli Cells Involves Differential Apoptotic Response
AN  - 14642720; 10637325
AB  - Cultured rat Sertoli cells were exposed to selected PAHs, and direct toxic effects were determined. Fluoranthene was used in the first set of experiments, followed by benzo(a)anthracene (BaA), benzo(a)pyrene (BaP), and benzo(b)fluoranthene (BbF). Results showed that fluoranthene directly affected Sertoli cell viability in vitro in a concentration-dependent manner, and the cytotoxic effects were dose-dependent. Exposure to the PAH also resulted in a concentration-dependent increase in the amount of lactate production and affected F-actin distribution. Upon exposure to 10 super(-8) M or higher molarities, Sertoli cells exhibited altered and complex microtubule networks that extended into longer processes compared with untreated controls. A concentration-dependent decrease in mitochondrial activity in the cells was also observed with increasing concentrations of fluoranthene. For the other three PAHs, lactate production was increased significantly in a dose-dependent manner. Exposure to BaP or BbF, but not to fluoranthene or BaA, caused cellular changes that were characteristic of apoptosis.

T1  - A 2-Year DoseResponse Study of Lesion Sequences During Hepatocellular Carcinogenesis in the Male B6C3F sub(1) Mouse Given the Drinking Water Chemical Dichloroacetic Acid
AN  - 14642364; 10637328
AB  - Weanling male B6C3F sub(1) mice were given dichloroacetic acid at doses of 0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 3.5 g/l for periods ranging 26100 weeks, and hepatocellular changes were monitored. The analysis included a separation of preneoplastic and benign hepatic lesions into subtypes, and the number of lesions per animal was analyzed using log-linear Poisson regression with dose and time effects. Three lesion sequences were determined during mouse liver carcinogenesis. Eosinophilic altered hepatic foci was the most frequent lesion type observed, with the numbers significantly different from controls at both low and high doses of dichloroacetic acid and related significantly to the dose at 100 weeks. Eosinophilic large foci of cellular alteration were rare, being unrelated to length of exposure and only marginally related to dose at 100 weeks. Some eosinophilic altered hepatic foci developed into eosinophilic adenomas directly. The second carcinogenic sequence was from basophilic and/or clear cell altered hepatic foci that grew into basophilic and/or clear cell large foci of cellular alteration and progressed directly to carcinomas. The third sequence was from atypical cells to dysplastic altered hepatic foci and carcinomas directly, with the presence of atypical nuclei in non-involved liver associated with the number of carcinomas per mouse.

T1  - Water Quality: Implementing the Clean Water Act
AN  - 14641532; 10637924
AB  - The 107th Congress completed action on only two of the regular FY2003 appropriation bills under the Clean Water Act. EPA funding bills were reported to the Congress but there was no floor action. In December 2002, EPA signed final revised rules to regulate waste discharges from large animal feedlots. The Bush Administration is continuing its review of controversial regulations issued by the Clinton Administration in 2000 to strengthen existing rules that govern a program under the Act intended to restore impaired waters, the Total Maximum Daily Load program. Implementation of nonpoint source control measures is hindered by lack of resources, including federal assistance. EPA adopted program guidance intended to give states more flexibility and to accelerate progress in nonpoint source control.

T1  - Temporal Trends in Orchidopexy, Great Britain, 19921998
AN  - 14641167; 10637338
AB  - Orchidopexy is the operation carried out to correct cryptorchidism, which is the absence of at least one testis in the scrotum. In the UK, hospital episodes for orchidopexy procedures were extracted from routine hospital admission data over the period 199298 to assess any possible temporal trends. The annual trends were analyzed by age, grouped 04, 59, 1014, and greater than or equal to 15 yr. Results showed that the rates of orchidopexy declined in all age groups under the age of 15 yr, with the greatest decline observed in boys aged 59 yr. The decreasing trend was observed in every region examined. In addition, a shift from in-patient to day-case procedures was noted. For boys aged 014 yr, orchidopexy rates fell by 47% from 1992 to 1998.

T1  - Phased upgrading for nitrogen removal - a low cost approach
AN  - 1024646836; 11660663
AB  - A phased approach has been adopted for upgrading the Luggage Point WWTP for nitrogen removal. Luggage Point WWTP (900,000 EP) is the largest plant operated by Brisbane Water. Management actions recommended by the South East Queensland Wastewater Management Strategy require the effluent total nitrogen levels to be reduced to less than 5 mg/L (50th percentile) by 2005. Luggage Point WWTP originally featured primary settling and a completely nitrifying activated sludge process. Effluent total nitrogen levels from the plant averaged 27 mg/L. Characteristics of the wastewater are highly variable, with primary settled wastewater having a COD/BOD5 ratio averaging 2.5, a TKN/COD ratio averaging 0.12 and effluent non-ammonia TKN averaging 1.8 mg/L (but up to 5 mg/L). The upgrade presented a substantial challenge, due to the limited available substrate for denitrification, a significant level of unbiodegradeable nitrogen and the low existing bioreactor HRT. The phased upgrading strategy was adopted to overcome these challenges most effectively and at low cost. The first stage of the upgrade included modifications to the existing plant infrastructure, without constructing new tankage. The existing bioreactors have been retro-fitted using a five stage Bardenpho nutrient removal process, incorporating significant flexibility. The first phase upgrade has been commissioned and preliminary results indicate that the effluent total nitrogen has been reduced below the required first phase target of 8 mg/L. This represents a reduction of 3 tonnes of nitrogen per day entering Moreton Bay. The process is also operating with good stability and with excellent sludge settleability. The first phase of the upgrade will be completed for $AUS25M, which represents a low cost of $28 per equivalent person. Further upgrade works are likely to include separate treatment of the digested sludge dewatering centrate and advanced control of the biological process. The upgrade of Luggage Pt WWTP has shown that low effluent nitrogen can be achieved at low cost, through optimum utilisation of existing assets and a phased approach to modifications.

T1  - Detection of bacterial vaginosis-related organisms by real-time PCR for Lactobacilli, Gardnerella vaginalis and Mycoplasma hominis
AN  - 18618363; 5513960
AB  - The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of detecting bacterial vaginosis (BV)-related organisms in stored genital tract specimens using real-time PCR. Frozen cervicovaginal lavage (CVL) samples from 21 women were analyzed by real-time PCR for the numbers of Mycoplasma hominis, Gardnerella vaginalis and lactobacilli. Lactobacilli organisms were detected in all CVL samples, G. vaginalis was detected in all but one sample, while M. hominis was detected in only six samples. Using the Amsel criteria to define BV, the samples from women with BV had significantly higher numbers of G. vaginalis organisms than samples from women without BV (P=0.004). In contrast, the number of lactobacilli organisms in BV samples was significantly lower (P=0.013). The number of M. hominis organisms was not significantly different between BV-positive and BV-negative samples. A striking relationship was observed where most of the samples contained high numbers of either lactobacilli or G. vaginalis but not both. These results show that it is possible to determine the presence of BV-related organisms in stored genital tract samples by PCR, suggesting that this could be developed into an objective method that could be useful for certain applications.

T1  - Attenuation of diagnostic energy photons by polymer gel dosimeters.
AN  - 72808635; 12502047
AB  - Post-irradiation changes in the linear attenuation coefficient, mu, of polymer gel dosimeters give rise to a change which can be measured with x-ray computed tomography. Polymer gel dosimeters were manufactured consisting of 3% (by weight) acrylamide and 3% N,N'-methylene-bis-acrylamide comonomers dissolved in aqueous gelatin (5% gelatin by total weight and 89% de-ionized distilled water). Mu was measured in a collimated radiation beam of photons from an 241Am source. Density, rho, of polymer gel dosimeters was measured using volumetric flasks with capillary stoppers. The measured post-irradiation data of mu was plotted against the data of rho for different batches, and linear least squares fits gave r2 values of 0.99605 and 0.99953, with P values of less than 0.001. This confirms that the post-irradiation change in mu is proportional to that of rho. The change in rho implies a change in volume regardless of the evaluation modality of the polymer gel dosimeter.

T1  - Alphavirus 6K proteins form ion channels.
AN  - 72723559; 12228229
AB  - Ross River virus and Barmah Forest virus are Australian arboviruses of the Alphavirus genus. Features of alphavirus infection include an increased permeability of cells to monovalent cations followed by virion budding. Virally encoded ion channels are thought to have a role in these processes. In this paper, the 6K proteins of Ross River virus and Barmah Forest virus are shown to form cation-selective ion channels in planar lipid bilayers. Using a novel purification method, bacterially expressed 6K proteins were inserted into bilayers with a defined orientation (i.e. N-terminal cis, C-terminal trans). Channel activity was reversibly inhibited by antibodies to the N and C termini of 6K protein added to the cis and trans baths, respectively. Channel conductances varied from 40-800 picosiemens, suggesting that the protein is able to form channels with a range of possible oligomerization states.

T1  - Legionella phagosomes intercept vesicular traffic from endoplasmic reticulum exit sites
AN  - 807262857; 13695675
AB  - It is unknown how Legionella pneumophila cells escape the degradative lysosomal pathway after phagocytosis by macrophages and replicate in an organelle derived from the endoplasmic reticulum. Here we show that, after internalization, L. pneumophila-containing phagosomes recruit early secretory vesicles. Once L. pneumophila phagosomes have intercepted early secretory vesicles they begin to acquire proteins residing in transitional and rough endoplasmic reticulum. The functions of Sar1 and ADP-ribosylation factor-1 are important for biogenesis of the L. pneumophila replicative organelle. These data indicate that L. pneumophila intercepts vesicular traffic from endoplasmic-reticulum exit sites to create an organelle that permits intracellular replication and prevents destruction by the host cell.

T1  - Differential activation of ion channels by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)- and ryanodine-sensitive calcium stores in rat basilar artery vasomotion.
AN  - 72718297; 12456838
AB  - Spontaneous, rhythmical contractions, or vasomotion, can be recorded from cerebral vessels under both normal physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Using electrophysiology to study changes in membrane potential, the ratiometric calcium indicator Fura-2 AM to study changes in [Ca(2+)](i) in both the arterial wall and in individual smooth muscle cells (SMCs), and video microscopy to study changes in vessel diameter, we have investigated the cellular mechanisms underlying vasomotion in the juvenile rat basilar artery. During vasomotion, rhythmical oscillations in both membrane potential and [Ca(2+)](i) were found to precede rhythmical contractions. Nifedipine depolarized SMCs and abolished rhythmical contractions and depolarizations. [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations in the arterial wall became reduced and irregular, while [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations in adjacent SMCs were no longer synchronized. BAPTA-AM, thapsigargin and U73122 hyperpolarized SMCs, relaxed the vessel, decreased basal calcium levels and abolished vasomotion. Chloride substitution abolished rhythmical activity, depolarized SMCs, increased basal calcium levels and constricted the vessel, while niflumic acid and DIDS abolished vasomotion. Ryanodine, charybdotoxin and TRAM-34, but not iberiotoxin, 4-aminopyridine or apamin, each depolarized SMCs and increased the frequency of rhythmical depolarizations and [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations. We conclude that vasomotion in the basilar artery depends on the release of intracellular calcium from IP(3) (inositol 1,4,5,-trisphosphate)-sensitive stores which activates calcium-dependent chloride channels to depolarize SMCs. Depolarization in turn activates voltage-dependent calcium channels, synchronizing contractions of adjacent cells through influx of extracellular calcium. Subsequent calcium-induced calcium release from ryanodine-sensitive stores activates an intermediate conductance potassium channel, hyperpolarizing the SMCs and providing a negative feedback pathway for regeneration of the contractile cycle.

T1  - A Dose of Law and Realism for Presidential Studies
AN  - 60593435; 200305178
AB  - Maintains that historians continue to place US presidents on an artificially high pedestal. Students are taught that the president is dedicated to representing the national interest & protecting the "national purse" even though these generalizations are not supported by fact. Glorified depictions of the presidency disillusion citizens by raising unrealistic expectations. However, a more down-to-earth picture is possible if researchers analyze the presidency within the framework of constitutional constraints & the entire political system. The constitutional context is examined, along with differences between national & local interests, the exercise of presidential power, & the expertise/knowledge of persons working for the executive branch. Presidents who act unilaterally are more apt to run into serious problems, as exemplified by Lyndon Johnson with Vietnam, Richard Nixon with Watergate, Ronald Reagan with Iran-Contra, & Bill Clinton with Monica Lewinsky. The decline in the efficacy of checks & balances is discussed to stress the need for historians to give equal consideration to all branches of the government when seeking the source of political crises. 35 References.

AB  - Although land application of biosolids (loosely defined here as appropriately treated sewage sludge) has demonstrated beneficial outcomes and has been a long established and widely adopted activity, the need for management of contaminant and microbiological risks has seen land application practices almost universally subject to regulatory oversight. These regulatory controls are not static and within recent years there have been significant initiatives within the United States, European and Australian regulatory frameworks. Understanding the potential significance of these changes is of obvious importance to Australian biosolids management programs.

T1  - Comparison of techniques to reduce residential lead dust on carpet and upholstery: the new jersey assessment of cleaning techniques trial.
AN  - 21344726; 7707661
AB  - High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtered vacuum cleaners are recommended by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for cleaning lead-contaminated house dust. We performed a randomized field study to determine whether a conventional (non-HEPA) vacuum cleaner could achieve cleaning results comparable with those of a HEPA vacuum cleaner. We compared the lead loading reductions of these two vacuum cleaners in a total of 127 New Jersey homes of lead-exposed children. We used wet towelettes and a vacuum sampler to collect lead dust from carpets and upholstery before and after vacuum cleaning. The vacuum sampling data showed that the HEPA and non-HEPA vacuum cleaners resulted in 54.7% (p = 0.006) and 36.4% (p = 0.020) reductions in lead loading, respectively, when used on soiled carpets, although the overall difference in lead loading reduction between the two vacuum cleaners was not statistically significant (p = 0.293). The wipe sampling data did not show any significant lead loading reduction for either of the vacuum cleaners, suggesting that both vacuum cleaners fail to clean the surfaces of carpet effectively, considering that wipe sampling media simulate surface contact. On upholstery, the wipe sampling data showed a significant reduction in lead loading for the non-HEPA vacuum cleaner (22.2%, p = 0.047). Even with the significant reduction, the postcleaning lead loadings on upholstery were similar to those on carpets. The similar lead loading results for carpets and upholstery indicate that soiled upholstery may be as important a source of childhood lead exposure as carpets.

T1  - Evaluating quantitative formulas for dose-response assessment of chemical mixtures.
AN  - 21287835; 11704150
AB  - Risk assessment formulas are often distinguished from dose-response models by being rough but necessary. The evaluation of these rough formulas is described here, using the example of mixture risk assessment. Two conditions make the dose-response part of mixture risk assessment difficult, lack of data on mixture dose-response relationships, and the need to address risk from combinations of chemicals because of public demands and statutory requirements. Consequently, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has developed methods for carrying out quantitative dose-response assessment for chemical mixtures that require information only on the toxicity of single chemicals and of chemical pair interactions. These formulas are based on plausible ideas and default parameters but minimal supporting data on whole mixtures. Because of this lack of mixture data, the usual evaluation of accuracy (predicted vs. observed) cannot be performed. Two approaches to the evaluation of such formulas are to consider fundamental biological concepts that support the quantitative formulas (e.g., toxicologic similarity) and to determine how well the proposed method performs under simplifying constraints (e.g., as the toxicologic interactions disappear). These ideas are illustrated using dose addition and two weight-of-evidence formulas for incorporating toxicologic interactions.

T1  - Deviation from additivity in mixture toxicity: relevance of nonlinear dose-response relationships and cell line differences in genotoxicity assays with combinations of chemical mutagens and gamma-radiation.
AN  - 21268195; 11704148
AB  - Sublinear dose-response relationships are often seen in toxicity testing, particularly with bioassays for carcinogenicity. This is the result of a superimposition of various effects that modulate and contribute to the process of cancer formation. Examples are saturation of detoxification pathways or DNA repair with increasing dose, or regenerative hyperplasia and indirect DNA damage as a consequence of high-dose cytotoxicity and cell death. The response to a combination treatment can appear to be supra-additive, although it is in fact dose-additive along a sublinear dose-response curve for the single agents. Because environmental exposure of humans is usually in a low-dose range and deviation from linearity is less likely at the low-dose end, combination effects should be tested at the lowest observable effect levels (LOEL) of the components. This principle has been applied to combinations of genotoxic agents in various cellular models. For statistical analysis, all experiments were analyzed for deviation from additivity with an n-factor analysis of variance with an interaction term, n being the number of components tested in combination. Benzo[a]pyrene, benz[a]anthracene, and dibenz[a,c]anthracene were tested at the LOEL, separately and in combination, for the induction of revertants in the Ames test, using Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and rat liver S9 fraction. Combined treatment produced no deviation from additivity. The induction of micronuclei in vitro was investigated with ionizing radiation from a 137Cs source and ethyl methanesulfonate. Mouse lymphoma L5178Y cells revealed a significant 40% supra-additive combination effect in an experiment based on three independent replicates for controls and single and combination treatments. On the other hand, two human lymphoblastoid cell lines (TK6 and WTK1) as well as a pilot study with human primary fibroblasts from fetal lung did not show deviation from additivity. Data derived from one cell line should therefore not be generalized. Regarding the testing of mixtures for deviation from additive toxicity, the suggested experimental protocol is easily followed by toxicologists.

T1  - Methods of assessing neurobehavioral development in children exposed to methyl parathion in Mississippi and Ohio.
AN  - 21267875; 11702309
AB  - Methyl parathion (MP), an organophosphate pesticide, was sprayed illegally for pest control in U.S. residences and businesses in Mississippi and Ohio. To evaluate the association between MP exposure and neurobehavioral development, children 6 years of age or younger at the time of the spraying and local comparison groups of unexposed children were assessed using the pediatric environmental neurobehavioral test battery (PENTB). The PENTB is composed of informant-based procedures (parent interview and questionnaires) and performance-based procedures (neurobehavioral tests for children 4 years of age or older) that evaluate each of the four broad domains (cognitive, motor, sensory, and affect) essential to neurobehavioral assessment. Children were classified as exposed or unexposed using urinary p-nitrophenol (PNP) levels and environmental wipe samples for MP. Exposure was defined as a urinary PNP level of greater than or equal to 100 ppb for the child or any other individual living in the household. Environmental wipe sample levels of greater than or equal to 150 g MP/100 cm2 and greater than or equal to 132.9 g MP/100 cm2 were used to define MP exposure for children living in Mississippi and Ohio, respectively. The PENTB was first administered in summer 1999 (year 1). The PENTB was readministered in summer 2000 (year 2) to children who participated in year 1 of the study. A description of the methods used in the study are presented. Results of data analyses for both years of the study will be presented in a separate publication.

T1  - Gene induction studies and toxicity of chemical mixtures.
AN  - 21263761; 11704149
AB  - As part of its mixtures program, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) supports in vitro and limited in vivo toxicity testing to further our understanding of the toxicity and health effects of chemical mixtures. There are increasing concerns that environmental chemicals adversely affect the health of humans and wildlife. These concerns have been augmented by the realization that exposure to chemicals often occurs to mixtures of these chemicals that may exhibit complex synergistic or antagonistic interactions. To address such concerns, we have conducted two studies with techniques that are being used increasingly in experimental toxicology. In the first study, six organochlorine pesticides (4,4 -DDT, 4,4 -DDD, 4,4 -DDE, aldrin, dieldrin, or endrin) were selected from the ATSDR Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (or Superfund) priority list and tested for their ability to modulate transcriptional activation of an estrogen-responsive reporter gene in transfected HeLa cells. In these assays, HeLa cells cotransfected with an expression vector encoding estrogen receptor and an estrogen-responsive chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter plasmid were dosed with and without selected environmental chemicals either individually or in defined combinations. Estradiol consistently elicited 10- to 23-fold dose-dependent inductions in this assay. By contrast, all six of the organochlorine pesticides showed no detectable dose-related response when tested either individually or in binary combinations. Thus, these chemicals as binary mixtures do not exhibit any additional estrogenicity at the levels tested in these assays. In the second study, arsenic [As(V)], cadmium [Cd(II)], chromium [Cr(III, VI)], and lead [Pb(II)] were tested in a commercially developed assay system, CAT-Tox (L), to identify metal-responsive promoters and to determine whether the pattern of gene expression changed with a mixture of these metals. This assay employs a battery of recombinant HepG2 cell lines to test the transcriptional activation capacity of xenobiotics in any of 13 different signal-transduction pathways. Singly, As(V), Cd(II), Cr(III, VI), and Pb(II) produced complex induction profiles in these assays. However, no evidence of synergistic activity was detected with a mixture of Cd(II), Cr(III), and Pb(II). These results have shown metal activation of gene expression through several previously unreported signal-transduction pathways and thus suggest new directions for future studies into their biochemical mechanisms of toxicity. In conclusion, the (italic)in vitro(/italic) methods used in these studies provide insights into complex interactions that occur in cellular systems and could be used to identify biomarkers of exposure to other environmental chemical mixtures.

T1  - Urinary p-nitrophenol as a biomarker of household exposure to methyl parathion.
AN  - 21260882; 11704153
AB  - Methyl parathion (MP) is an organophosphate pesticide illegally applied to the interiors of many hundreds of homes throughout the United States by unlicensed pesticide applicators. Public health authorities developed a protocol for investigating contaminated homes and classifying their need for public health interventions. This protocol included environmental screening for MP contamination and 1-day biomonitoring (a.m. and p.m. spot urine samples) of household members for p-nitrophenol (PNP), a metabolite of MP. The variability of urinary PNP excretion under these exposure conditions was unknown. We collected a.m. and p.m. spot urine samples for 7 consecutive days from 75 individuals, who were members of 20 MP-contaminated households in the greater Chicago, Illinois, area, and analyzed them for PNP. We also assessed the ability of the 1-day sampling protocol to correctly classify exposed individuals and households according to their need for public health interventions, assuming that 1 week of sampling (14 urinary PNPs) represented their true exposure condition. The coefficient of variation of log urinary PNPs for individuals over the course of 7 days of a.m. and p.m. sampling averaged about 15%. Adjusting for urinary excretion of creatinine improved reproducibility of urinary PNPs among children but not among adults. The 1-day protocol correctly classified true risk category in 92% of individuals and 85% of households. The data contained in this study can be used to refine what is already a reasonable and effective approach to identifying MP-exposed households and determining the appropriate public health intervention.

T1  - Molecular identification of organic compounds in atmospheric complex mixtures and relationship to atmospheric chemistry and sources.
AN  - 21259028; 11702304
AB  - This article describes a chemical characterization approach for complex organic compound mixtures associated with fine atmospheric particles of diameters less than 2.5 m (PM2.5). It relates molecular- and bulk-level chemical characteristics of the complex mixture to atmospheric chemistry and to emission sources. Overall, the analytical approach describes the organic complex mixtures in terms of a chemical mass balance (CMB). Here, the complex mixture is related to a bulk elemental measurement (total carbon) and is broken down systematically into functional groups and molecular compositions. The CMB and molecular-level information can be used to understand the sources of the atmospheric fine particles through conversion of chromatographic data and by incorporation into receptor-based CMB models. Once described and quantified within a mass balance framework, the chemical profiles for aerosol organic matter can be applied to existing air quality issues. Examples include understanding health effects of PM2.5 and defining and controlling key sources of anthropogenic fine particles. Overall, the organic aerosol compositional data provide chemical information needed for effective PM2.5 management.

T1  - Overview of human health and chemical mixtures: problems facing developing countries.
AN  - 21259001; 11702299
AB  - In developing countries, chemical mixtures within the vicinity of small-scale enterprises, smelters, mines, agricultural areas, toxic waste disposal sites, etc., often present a health hazard to the populations within those vicinities. Therefore, in these countries, there is a need to study the toxicological effects of mixtures of metals, pesticides, and organic compounds. However, the study of mixtures containing substances such as DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane, an insecticide banned in developed nations), and mixtures containing contaminants such as fluoride (of concern only in developing countries) merit special attention. Although the studies may have to take into account simultaneous exposures to metals and organic compounds, there is also a need to consider the interaction between chemicals and other specific factors such as nutritional conditions, alcoholism, smoking, infectious diseases, and ethnicity.

T1  - Biodegradation kinetics of aromatic hydrocarbon mixtures by pure and mixed bacterial cultures.
AN  - 21251190; 11702305
AB  - Microbial growth on pollutant mixtures is an important aspect of bioremediation and wastewater treatment. However, efforts to develop mathematical models for mixed substrate kinetics have been limited. Nearly all models group either the microbial population (as "biomass") or the chemical species (e.g., as biological oxygen demand). When individual chemical species are considered, most models assume either no interaction or that the nature of the interaction is competition for the same rate-limiting enzyme. And when individual microbial species are considered, simple competition for the growth substrate is the only interaction included. Here, we present results using Pseudomonas putida F1 and Burkholderia sp. strain JS150 growing individually and together on benzene, toluene, phenol, and their mixtures and compare mathematical models to describe these results. We demonstrate that the simple models do not accurately predict the outcome of these biodegradation experiments, and we describe the development of a new model for substrate mixtures, the sum kinetics with interaction parameters (SKIP) model. In mixed-culture experiments, the interactions between species were substrate dependent and could not be predicted by simple competition models. Together, this set of experimental and modeling results presents our current state of work in this area and identifies challenges for future modeling efforts.

T1  - Measurement of p-nitrophenol in the urine of residents whose homes were contaminated with methyl parathion.
AN  - 21250924; 11702310
AB  - During the last several years, illegal commercial application of methyl parathion (MP) in domestic settings in several U.S. Southeastern and Midwestern States has affected largely inner-city residents. As part of a multiagency response involving the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA), the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), and state and local health departments, our laboratory developed a rapid, high-throughput, selective method for quantifying p-nitrophenol (PNP), a biomarker of MP exposure, using isotope dilution high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. We measured PNP in approximately 16,000 samples collected from residents of seven different states. Using this method, we were able to receive sample batches from each state; prepare, analyze, and quantify the samples for PNP; verify the results; and report the data to the health departments and ATSDR in about 48 hr. These data indicate that many residents had urinary PNP concentrations well in excess of those of the general U.S. population. In fact, their urinary PNP concentrations were more consistent with those seen in occupational settings or in poisoning cases. Although these data, when coupled with other MP metabolite data, suggest that many residents with the highest concentrations of urinary PNP had significant exposure to MP, they do not unequivocally rule out exposure to PNP resulting from environmental degradation of MP. Even with their limitations, these data were used with the assumption that all PNP was derived from MP exposure, which enabled the U.S. EPA and ATSDR to develop a comprehensive, biologically driven response that was protective of human health, especially susceptible populations, and included clinical evaluations, outreach activities, community education, integrated pest management, and decontamination of homes.

T1  - Methyl parathion in residential properties: relocation and decontamination methodology.
AN  - 21245314; 7707843
AB  - In November 1994 methyl parathion (MP), a restricted agricultural pesticide, was discovered to have been illegally sprayed within hundreds of residences in Lorain County, Ohio. Surface levels and air concentrations of MP revealed detectable levels of the pesticide 3 years after spraying. Because of the high toxicity of MP (lethal dose to 50% of rats tested [LD50] = 15 mg/kg) and long half-life indoors, risk-based relocation and decontamination criteria were created. Relocation criteria were derived based on levels of p-nitrophenol in urine, a metabolic byproduct of MP exposure. In Ohio, concentrations of MP on surfaces and in the air were also used to trigger relocations. The criteria applied in Ohio underwent refinement as cases of MP misuse were found in Mississippi and then in several other states. The MP investigation (1994-1997) was the largest pesticide misuse case in the nation, ultimately involving the sampling of 9,000 residences and the decontamination of 1,000 properties. This article describes the methodology used for relocation of residents and decontamination of properties having MP.

T1  - Methods for Determining Minimum Freshwater Inflow Needs of Texas Bays and Estuaries
AN  - 19728754; 5566903
AB  - In response to legislative directives beginning in 1975, the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) and the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) jointly established and currently maintain a data collection and analytical study program focused on determining the effects of and needs for freshwater inflows into the state's 10 bay and estuary systems. Study elements include hydrographic surveys, hydrodynamic modeling of circulation and salinity patterns, sediment analyses, nutrient analyses, fisheries analyses, freshwater inflow optimization modeling, and verification of needs. For determining the needs, statistical regression models are developed among freshwater inflows, salinities, and coastal fisheries. Results from the models and analyses are placed into the Texas Estuarine Mathematical Programming (TxEMP) model, along with information on salinity viability limits, nutrient budgets, fishery biomass ratios, and inflow bounds. The numerical relationships are solved within the constraints and limits, and optimized to meet state management objectives for maintenance of biological productivity and overall ecological health. Solution curves from the TxEMP model are verified by TWDB's hydrodynamic simulation of estuarine circulation and salinity structure, which is evaluated against TPWD's analysis of species abundance and distribution patterns in each bay and estuary system. An adequate system-wide match initially verifies the inflow solution. Long-term monitoring is recommended in order to verify that implementation of future water management strategies maintain ecological health of the estuaries and to provide an early warning of needs for adaptive management strategies.

T1  - Methodologies for characterisation of combustion sources and for quantification of their emissions
AN  - 19397276; 5717935
AB  - Emissions from the combustion of biomass and fossil fuels result in generation of a large number of particle and gaseous products in outdoor and/or indoor air, which create health and environmental risks. Of particular importance are the very small particles that are emitted in large quantities from all the combustion sources, and that could be potentially more significant in terms of their impact on health and the environment than larger particles. It is important to quantify particle emissions from combustion sources for regulatory and control purposes in relation to air quality. This paper is a review of particle characteristics that are used as source signatures, their general advantages and limitations, as well as a review of source signatures of the most common combustion pollution sources including road transport, industrial facilities, small household combustion devices, environmental tobacco smoke, and vegetation burning. The current methods for measuring particle physical characteristics (mass and number concentrations) and principles of methodologies for measuring emission factors are discussed in the paper as well. Finally, the paper presents the recommendations for the future techniques for measurements of combustion products.

T1  - Genetic organization of mecA and mecA-regulatory genes in epidemic methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus from Australia and England
AN  - 18893350; 5762969
AB  - The mecA gene that encodes methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus may be regulated by the mecR1 and mecI genes, and this region has been referred to as the mec complex. An analysis of these regulatory genes in 35 epidemic methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) isolated in England and Australia has found that they contain three classes of mec complex. Firstly, the Class A mec complex with complete mecR1 and mecI genes. Secondly, a new variant of Class A, the Class A1 mec complex, with a 166 bp deletion in the membrane-spanning domain of mecR1 and a complete mecI gene. Thirdly, the Class B mec complex, in which the penicillin-binding domain of mecR1 and the whole mecI gene are deleted by the insertion of a partial sequence of IS1272. Seven MRSA isolated in England and Australia over different time periods had the Class A mec complex. However, the isolates did not have closely related pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) patterns. The Class A1 mec complex was found in 12 Australian isolates and the English epidemic MRSA, EMRSA-1. All these organisms were isolated in the early 1980s and had closely related PFGE patterns. The Class B mec complex region was found in nine EMRSA and seven Australian MRSA isolated over the period from the 1970s to 2000. These isolates had related PFGE patterns. The mecA region was also compared in the isolates and all but two of the isolates had an XbaI restriction site. These results support the global spread of epidemic clones and confirm the close relationship between the Australian and English MRSA strains.

AN  - 18839218; 5537086
AB  - Accurate identification of species that are consumed by vertebrate predators is necessary for understanding marine food webs. Morphological methods for identifying prey components after consumption often fail to make accurate identifications of invertebrates because prey morphology becomes damaged during capture, ingestion and digestion. Another disadvantage of morphological methods for prey identification is that they often involve sampling procedures that are disruptive for the predator, such as stomach flushing or lethal collection. We have developed a DNA-based method for identifying species of krill (Crustacea: Malacostraca), an enormously abundant group of invertebrates that are directly consumed by many groups of marine vertebrates. The DNA-based approach allows identification of krill species present in samples of vertebrate stomach contents, vomit, and, more importantly, faeces. Utilizing samples of faeces from vertebrate predators minimizes the impact of dietary studies on the subject animals. We demonstrate our method first on samples of Adelie penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae) stomach contents, where DNA-based species identification can be confirmed by prey morphology. We then apply the method to faeces of Adelie penguins and to faeces of the endangered pygmy blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus brevicauda). In each of these cases, krill species consumed by the predators could be identified from their DNA present in faeces or stomach contents.

T1  - Multiennial Reproduction In Females Of A Viviparous, Temperate-Zone Skink, Tiliqua Nigrolutea
AN  - 18788198; 5660051
AB  - We examined the reproductive frequency in wild-caught and captive females of Tiliqua nigrolutea over five consecutive reproductive seasons. Reproductive frequency (0.38 plus or minus SE 0.035) was clearly different from an annual pattern (1.0) in which all females reproduce every year. Individual females did not reproduce every year, but 'skipped' seasons were staggered such that a proportion of the population produced a clutch each season. We attribute skipped reproductive opportunities to a combination of a long gestation, high relative clutch mass (0.43 plus or minus SE 0.034), parturition late in the active season, a cessation of feeding in the latter stages of gestation, and low autumn temperatures that limited post-partum feeding opportunities.

T1  - The first biantennary bacterial secondary cell wall polymer and its influence on S-layer glycoprotein assembly
AN  - 18755389; 5627106
AB  - The cell surface of Aneurinibacillus thermoaerophilus DSM 10155 is covered with a square surface (S)-layer glycoprotein lattice. This S-layer glycoprotein, which was extracted with aqueous buffers after a freeze-thaw cycle of the bacterial cells, is the only completely water-soluble S-layer glycoprotein to be reported to date. The purified S-layer glycoprotein preparation had an overall carbohydrate content of 19%. Detailed chemical investigations indicated that the S-layer O-glycans of previously established structure accounted for 13% of total glycosylation. The remainder could be attributed to a peptidoglycan-associated secondary cell wall polymer. Structure analysis was performed using purified secondary cell wall polymer-peptidoglycan complexes. NMR spectroscopy revealed the first biantennary secondary cell wall polymer from the domain Bacteria, with the structure alpha -D-GlcpNAc-(1 arrow right 3)- beta -D-ManpNAc-(1 arrow right 4)- beta -D-GalpNAc-(1 arrow right 3)- alpha -D- GlcpNAc-(1 arrow right 3)- beta -D-ManpNAc-(1 arrow right 4)- beta -D-GalpNAc-(1 arrow right 3)- alpha -D- GlcpNAc-(1 arrow right 4)-[ alpha -D-GlcpNAc-(1 arrow right 3)- beta -D-ManpNAc-(1 arrow right 4)- beta -D- GalpNAc- (1 arrow right 3)- alpha -D-GlcpNAc-(1 arrow right 3)- beta -D-ManpNAc-(1 arrow right 4)- beta -D- GalpNAc-(1 arrow right 3)- alpha -D-GlcpNAc-(1 arrow right 3)]- beta -D-ManpNAc-(1 arrow right 3)- alpha -D- GlcpNAc-(1 arrow right 3)- beta -D-ManpNAc-(1 arrow right 3)- alpha -D-GlcpNAc-(1 arrow right 3)- alpha -D- GlcpNAc-(1 arrow right O)-PO sub(2) super(-)-O-PO sub(2) super(-)-(O arrow right 6)-MurNAc- (where MurNAc is N-acetylmuramic acid). The neutral polysaccharide is linked via a pyrophosphate bond to the C-6 atom of every fourth N-acetylmuramic acid residue, in average, of the A1 gamma -type peptidoglycan. In vivo, the biantennary polymer anchored the S-layer glycoprotein very effectively to the cell wall, probably due to the doubling of motifs for a proposed lectin-like binding between the polymer and the N-terminus of the S-layer protein. When the cellular support was removed during S-layer glycoprotein isolation, the co-purified polymer mediated the solubility of the S-layer glycoprotein in vitro. Initial crystallization experiments performed with the soluble S-layer glycoprotein revealed that the assembly property could be restored upon dissociation of the polymer by the addition of poly(ethylene glycols). The formed two-dimensional crystalline S-layer self-assembly products exhibited the same lattice symmetry as observed on intact bacterial cells.

T1  - Enhancement of Phosphorus Release from Lake Sediments by Aeration and Crayfish Activity
AN  - 18690867; 5584130
AB  - We collected sediments from a eutrophic lake and explored the impact of aeration and crayfish on the release of phosphorous from the sediment. The experiment was conducted in nine 18-liter aquaria with a layer of 10-cm sediment on the bottom of each aquaria. Treatments included: (1) no aeration, (2) aeration with crayfish (Cherax destructor), and (3) aeration without crayfish with three replicates for each treatment. Aeration significantly increased the level of dissolved oxygen but did not affect pH. The presence of crayfish in the aerated aquaria significantly enhanced the concentration of soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) and the release of total phosphorus (TP) from the sediment. In the treatment with only aeration, concentrations of SRP in water and TP released from the sediment were significantly greater than those without aeration but were less than those with crayfish addition. After four weeks, the percentage of TP released from sediments to water column was 0.9%, 4.4%, and 7.5% in the treatments of no aeration, aeration only, and aeration plus crayfish, respectively. Our results indicate that activity of benthic invertebrates can be an important means of releasing phosphorus from sediments.

T1  - First encounter with a live male blanket octopus: the world's most sexually size-dimorphic large animal
AN  - 18666878; 5569087
AB  - The first encounter with a live male blanket octopus, Tremoctopus violaceus Chiaie, 1830, illustrates the most extreme example of sexual size-dimorphism in a non-microscopic animal. Females attain sizes of up to 2 m long - almost 2 orders of magnitude larger than the 2.4-cm-long male. Weight ratios between the sexes are at least 10 000:1 and are likely to reach 40 000:1. Sexual selection and the unique defensive strategy of carrying cnidarian stinging tentacles may both have contributed to the evolution of this extreme size-dimorphism. Such dimorphism is not seen in any other animal remotely as large.

T1  - Regional vegetation mapping in Australia: a case study in the practical use of statistical modelling
AN  - 18660472; 5558442
AB  - Conservation evaluation of large areas (> 10 000 km super(2)) in Australia requires detailed mapping of vegetation types. Predicting the original vegetation cover of extensive cleared areas in an explicit, consistent and repeatable manner necessitates the use of statistical modelling. This paper describes an integrated approach to vegetation mapping in a region of New South Wales, Australia. The approach uses separate statistical models for each tree and shrub species to predict the vegetation composition in each grid cell in a geographic information system (GIS). Allocation of these grid cells to communities allows communities that no longer exist in the remaining remnants of woodland to be defined. Examples of use of this information for management are presented. This paper addresses the practical considerations which constrain the way statistical modelling can be used for vegetation mapping in an applied project. Constraints include: (1) data availability (use of sampling to fill gaps in existing data), (2) the effects of cover abundance values, (3) availability of GIS predictors, (4) data management, (5) current generalised additive model methods and (6) prediction methods. Careful attention to the practicality of all components of a vegetation mapping study is essential if modern methods are to be applied in regional studies which must provide functional products for land managers with limited resources, skills and finances at their disposal.

T1  - The Energetics and Scaling of Search Strategies in Bacteria
AN  - 18654269; 5560723
AB  - The influence of body size on the energetic cost of movement is well studied in animals but has been rarely investigated in bacteria. Here, I calculate the cost of four chemotactic strategies for different-sized bacteria by adding the costs of their locomotion and reorientation. Size differences of 0.1 mu m result in 100,000-fold changes in the energetic cost of chemotaxis. The exact cost for any given size is a nonlinear function of flagella length, the minimum speed necessary to detect and respond to a signal, and the gradient of the signal. These parameters are interlinked in such a way that body size and strategy are tightly coupled to particular environmental gradients, offering avenues for explaining and exploring diversity and competition. The analysis here has implications beyond bacteria. Power-law regression through the minimum costs of transport for different kinds of chemotaxis has the same slope as that for swimming animals, suggesting a universal allometric equation for all swimming organisms.

AN  - 18652442; 5558429
AB  - To investigate distributional patterns and derivation of skates in the Australasian realm. Australasia. Genus-group skate taxa were defined for this region for the first time and new systematic information, as well as bathymetric and geographical data, used to identify distribution patterns. The extant skate fauna of Australasia (Australia, New Zealand, New Caledonia and adjacent subAntarctic dependencies) is highly diverse and endemic with sixty-two species from twelve currently recognized, nominal genus-group taxa. These include the hardnose skate (rajin) groups Anacanthobatis, Amblyraja, Dipturus, Okamejei, Rajella and Leucoraja, and softnose skate (arhynchobatin) genera Arhynchobatis, Bathyraja, Insentiraja, Irolita, Pavoraja and Notoraja. Additional new and currently unrecognized nominal taxa of both specific and supraspecific ranks also occur in the region. The subfamily Arhynchobatinae is particularly speciose in Australasia, and the New Zealand/New Caledonian fauna is dominated by undescribed supraspecific taxa and species. The Australian fauna, although well represented by arhynchobatins, is dominated by Dipturus-like skates and shows little overlap in species composition with the fauna of New Zealand and New Caledonia. Similarly, these faunas exhibit no overlap with the polar faunas of the Australian subAntarctic dependencies (Heard and Macdonald Islands) to the south. Skates appear to be absent from the Macquarie Ridge at the southern margin of the New Zealand Plateau. Their absence off New Guinea probably reflects inadequate sampling and the subsequent poor knowledge of that region's deepwater fish fauna. Skates appear to have existed in the eastern, Australasian sector of Gondwana before fragmentation in the late Cretaceous. The extant fauna appears to be derived from elements of Gondwanan origin, dispersal from the eastern and western Tethys Sea, and intraregional vicariance speciation.

T1  - Effect of caudal autotomy on locomotor performance in a viviparous skink, Niveoscincus metallicus
AN  - 18635597; 5544768
AB  - Tail loss has repeatedly been associated with the impairment of locomotor performance in lizards. However, although the immediate impact of tail loss may be severe, most previous studies have failed to establish how long such locomotory costs persist. We investigated both the short-term (24-36 h) and long-term (4 and 12 weeks) consequences of tail loss on locomotor performance in a viviparous ground-dwelling skink, Niveoscincus metallicus (O'Shaughnessy 1874). Sprint speed, climbing ability and stamina were measured as performance variables. The locomotor performance of both adult males and pregnant females were tested during the study. Male and female lizards responded differently to tail loss, although the immediate impact of autotomy on performance was generally minor. In males caudal autotomy imposed a significant immediate impact on sprint speed, while in females stamina was reduced immediately after autotomy. Females regenerated their tails significantly faster than males. Recovery of locomotor performance over the 3-month duration of the study was observed in females (for endurance capacity) but not males (for sprint speed). Overall, the impact of tail loss on locomotor performance was generally limited or short-lived in N. metallicus.

T1  - Gene Cloning and Molecular Characterization of a Two-Enzyme System Catalyzing the Oxidative Detoxification of beta -Endosulfan
AN  - 18616296; 5512796
AB  - The gram-positive bacterium Mycobacterium sp. strain ESD is able to use the cyclodiene insecticide endosulfan as a source of sulfur for growth. This activity is dependent on the absence of sulfite or sulfate in the growth medium. A cosmid library of strain ESD DNA was constructed in a Mycobacterium- Escherichia coli shuttle vector and screened for endosulfan-degrading activity in Mycobacterium smegmatis, a species that does not degrade endosulfan. Using this method, we identified a single cosmid that conferred sulfur-dependent endosulfan-degrading activity on the host strain. An open reading frame (esd) was identified within this cosmid that, when expressed behind a constitutive promoter in a mycobacterial expression vector, conferred sulfite- and sulfate-independent beta -endosulfan degradation activity on the recombinant strain. The translation product of this gene (Esd) had up to 50% sequence identity with an unusual family of monooxygenase enzymes that use reduced flavins, provided by a separate flavin reductase enzyme, as cosubstrates. An additional partial open reading frame was located upstream of the Esd gene that had sequence homology to the same monooxygenase family. A flavin reductase gene, identified in the M. smegmatis genome, was cloned, expressed, and used to provide reduced flavin mononucleotide for Esd in enzyme assays. Thin-layer chromatography and gas chromatography analyses of the enzyme assay mixtures revealed the disappearance of beta -endosulfan and the appearance of the endosulfan metabolites, endosulfan monoaldehyde and endosulfan hydroxyether. This suggests that Esd catalyzes the oxygenation of beta -endosulfan to endosulfan monoaldehyde and endosulfan hydroxyether. Esd did not degrade either [alpha]- endosulfan or the metabolite of endosulfan, endosulfan sulfate.

T1  - COMMENTARY: First synthesize new viruses then regulate their release? The case of the wild rabbit
AN  - 18615212; 5537088
AB  - European wild rabbits originated in southwestern Europe but have been introduced into many other countries world-wide, becoming serious pests in many instances. As a consequence of rabbits being regarded so differently, applied research for their management often has opposing goals, namely their conservation or their control. Furthermore, modern gene technology has led to the concept of using genetically modified myxoma viruses for rabbit management, again with quite contrary aims in mind. In this paper we explain the possible ecological and economic consequences of using these genetically modified viruses inappropriately and we consider whether national and international regulations are sufficient to prevent improper use. If international regulations are inadequate, molecular biologists and ecologists must consider the consequences of their research and advice beyond their own country to avoid unwanted impacts.

AB  - Glucose-substituted cardiolipins account for about 4 mol% of total phospholipid extracted from exponentially grown cells of Geobacillus stearothermophilus NRS 2004/3a. Individual glucocardiolipin species exhibited differences in fatty acid substitution, with iso-C sub(15:0) and anteiso-C sub(17:0) prevailing. The compounds were purified to homogeneity by a novel protocol and precharacterized by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry.

T1  - Herbicides, weeds and endangered species: management of bitou bush (Chrysanthemoides monilifera ssp. rotundata) with glyphosate and impacts on the endangered shrub, Pimelea spicata
AN  - 18598898; 5493350
AB  - Environmental weed invasion threatens the biodiversity of native species. Unfortunately, managing these weeds may also affect biodiversity adversely. A recent example occurred when glyphosate, a herbicide used to control the highly invasive weed, bitou bush (Chrysanthemoides monilifera ssp. rotundata), accidentally drifted over a small population of an endangered shrub, Pimelea spicata. Following concerns that the affected population would not recover and, thereby, cause the local extinction of P. spicata, we conducted a series of glasshouse and field experiments to explore the impacts of glyphosate on this endangered species. Seedlings and young plants of P. spicata, in which the tap root was undeveloped, were killed by a single application of glyphosate. Older plants with a well developed tap root also died back initially, but about 50% of individuals re-sprouted. This re-growth was associated with a significant decrease in tap root diameter, implying that further disturbance, including repeated treatment with glyphosate, would kill plants by impairing their potential for recovery. Unlike some sclerophyllous native shrubs, the tolerance of P. spicata to glyphosate was limited, even when its growth was slowed artificially by limiting water availability. Winter applications of glyphosate to manage infestations of bitou bush will impact adversely on populations of P. spicata and may also affect the other rare and endangered species whose survival is threatened by this species, even though some natives are unaffected by the herbicide. Protecting native biodiversity from bitou bush will involve sustainable weed management that minimises impacts on non-target native species.

T1  - The warm and the cold: Influence of temperature and fishing on local population dynamics of red abalone
AN  - 18050692; 5742729
AB  - We developed an individual-based, spatially explicit population-dynamics model to explore the effects of temperature, fishing pressure, and reserve size on red abalone (Haliotis rufescens) populations at two of the northern Channel Islands off the coast of California. The model locations represent the "warm" Santa Cruz Island, which has a fishing history of declining abalone stocks, and the "cold" San Miguel Island, which has a history of stable catches. We investigated the effects of three temperature scenarios for 100-year periods on the behavior of each population. In the first scenario we used the real temperature environment (sea surface temperature, SST) from the last 100 years; results showed a decline in both model populations over the last 20 years, with and without fishing. In the second scenario model runs using an SST time series generated from current conditions at the islands showed that in the absence of larval connectivity the warm population would go extinct within 75 years regardless of fishing level. The final SST scenario involved a range of constant, potential SSTs that could occur in the future; abalone populations persisted when the SST was between 11 degree C and 16 degree C. The influence of temperature on the model populations and the latitudinal range of suitable SST suggest a northward migration of the real red abalone range as SST increases over the next 100 years. Efforts to rebuild or protect populations for the future should consider which West Coast regions would provide suitable red abalone habitat given rising ocean temperatures.

T1  - The National Forest System Roadless Areas Initiative
AN  - 14648733; 10637932
AB  - In 2001, the Clinton Administration established a new nationwide approach to the management of roadless areas in the National Forest System. The final rule issued prohibited road construction in 58.5 million acres of inventoried forest roadless areas, with significant exceptions. Under the Bush Administration, a proposed rule on forest planning was issued and a series of interim management directives promulgated that largely reverse the Clinton roadless area management approach. The development of the roadless area rule and related rules on planning and roads is traced, highlighting legal issues and statutory background.

T1  - Protecting Natural Resources and Managing Growth: Issues in the 107th Congress
AN  - 14648407; 10637909
AB  - The US House Resources Committee reported H.R. 701 in October 2002, omnibus legislation which would increase funding to more than $3 billion/yr for acquisition of land, restoration and protection of wildlife, coastal resources, urban parks, historic sites, public and Native American lands, and acquisition of easements. Various versions of the bill would have used about $45 billion in revenues from outer continental shelf oil and gas activities over 15 yr. For FY2003, the Bush Administration requested essentially level funding at $1.318 billion for programs in USDI appropriations in the Conservation Spending Category, and a decline to $0.35 billion for programs in the US Department of Commerce appropriations.

AB  - Toxicologists have traditionally modeled the toxic responses of both single chemicals and chemical mixtures through pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, but with the recent explosion in the amount of genomic sequence information available, the traditional models must be reanalyzed to incorporate this new information. The application of genomics to toxicity testing is discussed, along with its application to species extrapolation, to understanding toxic mechanisms, and to the prediction of susceptibility to chemical insult.

AN  - 14645587; 10637931
AB  - The history of appropriations granted EPA for water infrastructure financing under the Clean Water Act is chronicled for the FY1986-2002 period. A major change in the appropriations has bee inclusion of non-infrastructure grants to states, which began in FY1993 with the addition of Clean Water Act Section 319 grants for state programs to manage nonpoint source pollution. Another trend has been an increasing number and amount of specially earmarked grants for needy cities and other special purpose grants. Expansion of the account to include state revolving fund grants for drinking water projects, under authority of the 1996 Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments, is also noted.

T1  - An Investigation of Unexplained Infant Deaths in Houses Contaminated with Methyl Parathion
AN  - 14644660; 10639273
AB  - Following the discovery of the illegal application of methyl parathion in more than 400 homes in Lorain County, OH, an investigation was conducted to determine whether infants who had died of undetermined causes were more likely to have been exposed to methyl parathion in their homes than similar control infants. A case was identified as the death of any infant from January 1990 through December 1994. Methyl parathion exposure was estimated from pesticide levels in the home. An odds ratio of approximately 5 was found for the relationship between household contamination with methyl parathion and unexplained infant deaths, which was not statistically significant. Other risks identified included maternal smoking during pregnancy, young maternal age, low birth weight, and early gestational age of the infant.

T1  - Assessment of Human Exposure and Human Health Effects After Indoor Application of Methyl Parathion in Lorain County, Ohio, 19951996
AN  - 14644225; 10639272
AB  - After extensive methyl parathion exposure was discovered in residences of Lorain County, OH, in 1994, the homes were designated as a Superfund site, and during the cleanup period in 199596, adverse health effects were investigated. Questionnaires were used to collect demographic information, activity patterns, and when and how methyl parathion had been applied. In homes where subsequent hospitalizations had been reported, data were collected on the presenting signs and symptoms, as well as physical examination findings, vital signs, laboratory results, and discharge diagnoses, and at least one urine sample was collected for analysis of p-nitrophenol. Results revealed that acute and short-term organophosphate poisoning occurred, but was not recognized during the years that the pesticide was sprayed in the homes. Misdiagnosis of poisoning was more likely among children than among adults, but the children in the study appeared to have had a greater opportunity for acute and prolonged exposure than other household members. Young children had disproportionately higher median p-nitrophenol levels compared with other household members.

T1  - Protein Binding of Isofluorophate in Vivo After Coexposure to Multiple Chemicals
AN  - 14644218; 10639269
AB  - Results are presented from the evaluation of an approach to probe in vivo interactions of toxin mixtures at relevant low doses, using a monitor compound to report the response of a biochemical pathway shared by mixture components. Diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP) was chosen as the tracer compound. Radiolabeled DFP was administered to CD2/F1 male mice after co-exposure to parathion, permethrin, and pyridostigmine bromine, separately and in combination, and the concentrations of bound DFP in various tissues were determined. Results showed that the pesticides changed the amount of toxin reaching the brain significantly at concentrations that would not have been measurable in traditional enzyme-activity assays. Parathion and permethrin induced a significant increase in the amount of tracer reaching the brain, while pyridostigmine bromine exhibited a protective effect against tracer binding. The experimental data and subsequent modeling indicated that tracer retention was achieved primarily through protein binding by the 48-h point for both red blood cells and brain.

T1  - Physiological Modeling and Extrapolation of Pharmacokinetic Interactions from Binary to More Complex Chemical Mixtures
AN  - 14644159; 10639264
AB  - An overview is presented of the conceptual basis and validity of physiologically based pharmacokinetic models for extrapolating the occurrence and magnitude of interactions from binary to more complex chemical mixtures on the basis of interaction mechanisms elucidated at binary levels. The approach, which requires the modeling of all mixture components and interconnecting them at the tissue level, is outlined to show that it requires only data on binary interaction mechanisms for predicting the magnitude and consequences of multiple interactions within complex mixtures. Validation of the modeling approach is illustrated using mixtures containing benzene, toluene, m-xylene, ethylbenzene, and dichloromethane.

T1  - Molecular Circuits, Biological Switches, and Nonlinear DoseResponse Relationships
AN  - 14644138; 10639261
AB  - Risk-assessment approaches are discussed for nonlinear toxicological processes that take into account doseresponse behaviors of negative signaling molecules required for normal function, perturbations of the systems by the presence of toxicants, and biologically based doseresponse modeling of the underlying molecular circuitry associated with normal and impaired function of the signaling molecules. The underlying concept is that biological functions require the successful operation of specific circuits that coordinate information flow and govern cellular behavior under a variety of physiological conditions. The process by which some endogenous ligands or toxicant compounds cause nonlinear responses is called switching, with the switches activating fundamental changes in functional behaviors of cells in an all-or-none fashion. Examples are provided of several nonlinear switching processes that have been examined quantitatively.

T1  - Evaluating Quantitative Formulas for DoseResponse Assessment of Chemical Mixtures
AN  - 14644039; 10639260
AB  - Selected concepts used or proposed by EPA to evaluate simple risk-assessment formulae are examined, demonstrating how default-based risk-assessment formulae for chemical mixtures can be judged for plausibility and usefulness in a public-health regulatory context. General concepts are presented that are related to toxicologic interaction and mixture toxicity, and the noninteractive hazard index, which is the sum of the hazard quotients of component chemicals in a mixture, is described. Two versions of an interaction-based noninteractive hazard index are presented as illustration, one in which a judgmental weight of evidence evaluation of interaction studies is converted into a numerical score and then inserted into a formula multiplied by the noninteractive hazard index, and another that updates the equation to represent toxicologic interaction by a change in each component's toxic potency.

T1  - The Role of Cell Bioaugmentation and Gene Bioaugmentation in the Remediation of Co-Contaminated Soils
AN  - 14643767; 10639257
AB  - Soils collected in Arizona that had no known previous contamination were used to investigate bioaugmentation to remediate 2,4-D or 3-chlorobenzoate in the presence and absence of cadmium. The bacteria used included: Ralstonia eutropha JMP134, Escherichia coli D11, Comamonas testosteroni BR60, and Pseudomonas sp. H1. The bioaugmentation studies were conducted in microcosms or bioreactors. Results showed that 2,4-D was degraded readily by indigenous microorganisms, but when Cd was present, microbial activity was inhibited, especially in the low-nutrient desert soil. The inhibition was overcome only by bioaugmentation with R. eutropha and Pseudomonas, which was attributed to Cd detoxification by the latter that enhanced gene transfer from the former to indigenous microorganisms. Cell bioaugmentation was also successful in the studies with 3-chlorobenzoate.

T1  - Characterization of Gene Expression Changes Associated with MNNG, Arsenic, or Metal Mixture Treatment in Human Karatinocytes: Application of cDNA Microarray Technology
AN  - 14643642; 10639256
AB  - Human keratinocytes were used to define molecular events that could mediate the cytotoxicity and/or carcinogenicity of arsenic alone and in environmentally relevant metal mixtures. The transforming potential of As alone and with cadmium, chromium, or lead was assessed and compared with the potent carcinogen, N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), and negative controls, using cDNA microarray technology to analyze the genetic alterations induced by the different chemical treatments. Results showed that the keratinocyte cell line slowly and spontaneously progressed to a malignant phenotype, with the progression enhanced significantly by treatment with MNNG, but treatment with dimethyl sulfoxide, As alone, or As in the presence of Cd, Cr, or Pb acted to inhibit the progression. In addition to numerous chemical-specific gene changes, several genes were altered in a similar or opposite manner under the different exposure conditions. No genes were induced commonly by MNNG and As or the metal mixture.

T1  - Public Health Decisions: the Laboratory's Role in the Lorain County, Ohio, Investigation
AN  - 14643356; 10639274
AB  - The role of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention laboratory in providing information for data-driven public-health decisions following the discovery of extensive methyl parathion contamination in residences of Lorain County, OH, is described. The laboratory analyzed urine samples collected from exposed residents for the presence of p-nitrophenol, a metabolite of methyl parathion, using an isotopically labeled internal standard with tandem mass spectrometry. Reference range concentrations were determined from a subset of the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. While reference range concentrations were observed in the general population, many residents of Lorain County were found to have been exposed, with 78% of the subjects having urinary p-nitrophenol concentrations greater than the 95th percentile of the reference range concentrations. The investigation illustrates how biological monitoring played a key role in the public-health decision-making.

T1  - The Midgut Epithelium of Aquatic Arthropods: A Critical Target Organ in Environmental Toxicology
AN  - 14643223; 10639252
AB  - Interspecific differences in aquatic arthropod populations, including reduced diversity and shifts in benthic community composition, occur in response to heavy-metal contamination. A review is provided of studies that have defined anatomic and molecular determinants of specific aquatic Diptera susceptibility and resistance to heavy metals. The studies focused initially on mosquitoes, Aedes aegypti, which revealed a possible anatomic basis of heavy-metal toxicity to larvae that involves the integrity of the peritrophic matrix. Subsequently, molecular biological studies were undertaken with A. aegypti and Chironomus tentans to identify specific metal-responsive genes in the midgut epithelium. Two midgut genes were identified that are induced by heavy metals, one of which codes for an intestinal mucin and another than codes for a tubulin gene.

T1  - Analysis of Environmental and Biologic Methyl Parathion Data to Improve Future Data Collection
AN  - 14643069; 10639276
AB  - When methyl parathion contamination was discovered in residences in Mississippi in 1996, due to the operations of two unlicensed pesticide applicators, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry analyzed environmental methyl parathion and urinary p-nitrophenol data that had been collected simultaneously in the affected residences. The aim was to evaluate whether an individual's age and the level of environmental methyl parathion found in the residence could predict the individual's urinary p-nitrophenol level. Despite data limitations, the analysis revealed some associations between urinary p-nitrophenol values at the low and high ends and the average methyl parathion levels, but the association was not significant for the middle groups.

AN  - 14643015; 10639263
AB  - Organic extracts of exhaust particles were characterized by full-scan gas chromatographymass spectrometry, and significant overlap between peaks was obtained. The complex data were resolved into peaks and spectra for individual compounds using an automated curve resolution procedure, which is outlined. Principle component analysis was used to evaluate similarities between the mixtures, and the data matrix was used as input to a multivariate regression model that correlated the gas chromatographymass spectrometry data to mutagenicity measured in the Ames test. The regression model was able to identify the peaks that co-varied with the observed mutagenicity.

T1  - Chicago Area Methyl Parathion Response
AN  - 14642320; 10639277
AB  - When an illegal methyl parathion spraying operation was discovered in the Chicago, IL, area in April 1997, a multi-agency task force was organized to develop and coordinate federal, state, and local response efforts. Potentially affected households were identified from record books confiscated from the home of the applicator, and environmental samples were collected. Urine samples were also collected from residents on a voluntary basis and tested for the presence of p-nitrophenol. When applicable, residents were relocated, and their homes were decontaminated. Results are presented from each phase of the response operation, and the response challenges are identified and discussed.

T1  - Problems for Risk Assessment of Endocrine-Active Estrogenic Compounds
AN  - 14642238; 10639255
AB  - Under the auspices of the Food Quality Protection Act and the Safe Drinking Water Amendments, EPA has developed a series of in vitro and in vivo bioassays to detect endocrine-active chemicals. The use of individual bioassays and estrogen equivalents is comparable to the toxic equivalency factor/toxic equivalents method for hazard and risk assessment of TCDD and related halogenated aromatics. Studies are summarized that have examined the structureactivity relationships for estrogenic compounds, which have focused on selective estrogen-receptor modulators and the activation of wild-type and variant estrogen-receptor alpha by synthetic and natural estrogenic compounds. The results suggest that a toxic equivalency factor/toxic equivalents approach for estrogenic compounds is not appropriate due to their tissue-specific estrogen-receptor agonist/antagonist activities.

T1  - Introduction-the Methyl Parathion Story: a Chronicle of Misuse and Preventable Human Exposure
AN  - 14641814; 10639270
AB  - Methyl parathion is an organophosphate pesticide intended for outdoor use and is licensed only for agricultural use. An overview is presented of extensive indoor exposures that occurred in Lorain County, OH, that were identified in the fall of 1994 after 57 yr of illegal methyl parathion application to hundreds of homes. The immediate response by the Ohio Department of Agriculture and the Ohio Department of Health is described. Eventually, EPA declared the contaminated homes in the county as a Superfund cleanup site. Similar incidences were then found subsequently in other states, including Illinois, New York, Arkansas, and Mississippi.

T1  - Development of a Research Strategy for Integrated Technology-Bassed Toxicological and Chemical Evaluation of Complex Mixtures of Drinking Water Disinfection Byproducts
AN  - 14641751; 10639267
AB  - Disinfected drinking water contains more than 500 disinfection byproducts, but many remain unidentified. While epidemiologic and toxicological studies have suggested that human health effects from exposure to disinfection byproducts are of concern, no causal relationship has been demonstrated conclusively. A research strategy is described, which is designed to evaluate real-world complex mixtures of disinfection byproducts formed by chemical disinfection of bromide-containing water. The strategy proposes a succession of studies that are logical steps, which are segregated into the pretrial run phase, the trial run phase, and the full study. The various aspects of the strategy are described, including the research participants, selection of the water source, the addition of bromide and iodide to the water source, water disinfection treatment schemes, the concentration of disinfection byproducts by reverse osmosis, chemical analyses of water and water concentrates, in vivo toxicological assessment, and the meaning of positive and negative results.

T1  - The lead pollution history of Law Dome, Antarctica, from isotopic measurements on ice cores: 1500 AD to 1989 AD
AN  - 27737328; 05538683 (EN); A03-35609 (AH)
AB  - Lead isotopic compositions and Pb and Ba concentrations have been measured in ice cores from Law Dome, East Antarctica, covering the past 6500 years. 'Natural' background concentrations of Pb ( similar to 0.4 pg/g) and Ba ( similar to 1.3 pg/g) are observed until 1884 AD, after which increased Pb concentrations and lowered super(206)Pb/ super(207)Pb ratios indicate the influence of anthropogenic Pb. The isotopic composition of 'natural' Pb varies within the range super(206)Pb/ super(207)Pb = 1.20-1.25 and super(208)Pb/ super(207)Pb = 2.46-2.50, with an average rock and soil dust Pb contribution of 8-12%. A major pollution event is observed at Law Dome between 1884 and 1908 AD, elevating the Pb concentration four-fold and changing super(206)Pb/ super(207)Pb ratios in the ice to similar to 1.12. Based on Pb isotopic systematics and Pb emission statistics, this is attributed to Pb mined at Broken Hill and smelted at Broken Hill and Port Pirie, Australia. Anthropogenic Pb inputs are at their greatest from similar to 1900 to similar to 1910 and from similar to 1960 to similar to 1980. During the 20th century, Ba concentrations are consistently higher than 'natural' levels and are attributed to increased dust production, suggesting the influence of climate change and/or changes in land coverage with vegetation.

T1  - Spatial prediction of species distribution: an interface between ecological theory and statistical modelling
AN  - 18607507; 5524160
AB  - Neglect of ecological knowledge is a limiting factor in the use of statistical modelling to predict species distribution. Three components are needed for statistical modelling, an ecological model concerning the ecological theory to be used or tested, a data model concerning the collection and measurement of the data, and a statistical model concerning the statistical theory and methods used. This component framework is reviewed with emphasis on ecological theory. The expected shape of a species response curve to an environmental gradient is a central assumption on which agreement has yet to be reached. The nature of the environmental predictors whether indirect variables, e.g. latitude that have no physiological impact on plants, or direct variables, e.g. temperature also influence the type of response expected. Straight-line relationships between organisms and environment are often used uncritically. Many users of canonical correlation analysis use linear (straight-line) functions to relate ordination axes to variables such as slope and aspect though this is not a necessary part of the method. Some statisticians have used straight lines for species/environment relationships without testing, when evaluating new statistical procedures. Assumptions used in one component often conflict with those in another component. Statistical models can be used to explore ecological theory. Skewed species response curves predominate contrary to the symmetric unimodal curves assumed by some statistical methods. Improvements in statistical modelling can be achieved based on ecological concepts. Examples include incorporating interspecific competition from dominant species; more proximal predictors based on water balance models and spatial autocorrelation procedures to accommodate non-equilibrium vegetation.

T1  - Reduction in intracellular calcium levels induces injury in developing neurons.
AN  - 72729253; 12460605
AB  - The neurotransmitter glutamate influences intracellular Ca(2+) levels and plays an essential role in maintaining neuronal viability during early development. Blockade of NMDA receptors induces cell death in the neonatal forebrain via mechanisms that are not understood. Other neuromodulators that can influence intracellular Ca(2+) levels include the nucleoside adenosine, which acts via A(1) adenosine receptors subtypes (A(1)ARs). Because A(1)AR activation inhibits glutamate release and action, A(1)AR activation may also contribute to neonatal brain injury. To examine this possibility, we treated primary neuronal cultures with the A(1)AR agonist CPA, the NMDAR antagonist MK801, or CPA + MK801. Combined MK801 + CPA treatment resulted in profound cellular injury, exceeding that seen in other groups. In keeping with the hypothesis that altered Ca(2+) signaling mediates CPA + MK801 injury, reduction of Ca(2+) levels with EGTA, thapsigargin, or BAPTA-AM enhanced CPA + MK801-induced neuronal damage. In contrast, increasing intracellular Ca(2+) using ionomycin reversed CPA + MK801 toxicity. Direct visualization of intracellular Ca(2+) by confocal microscopy revealed that CPA + MK801 inhibited KCl-evoked increases in intracellular Ca(2+). Supporting the concept that A(1)AR activation and NMDAR blockade results in brain injury, neonatal rats injected with A(1)AR agonists + MK801 showed widespread apoptosis in many brain regions. These observations show that A(1)AR activation and NMDAR blockade lead to early postnatal cell injury by mechanisms that involve inhibition of intracellular Ca(2+) signaling.

T1  - Activation of the rat dopamine D2 receptor promoter by mitogen-activated protein kinase and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II pathways.
AN  - 72675399; 12421350
AB  - To investigate regulation of D2 receptor (D2R) gene expression by protein kinases, we evaluated effects of constitutively active MAPK kinase kinase (MEKK), Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMK) II, CaMKIV and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) on D2R promoter activity using luciferase reporter gene assays. A 1.5-kbp fragment containing the rat D2R promoter was cloned upstream of the reporter and transfected into D2R-expressing NB2A cells or nonexpressing NG108-15 and C6 glioma cells. MEKK and CaMKII, but not CaMKIV and PKA, increased promoter activity 4.5- and 1.5-fold, respectively, in NB2A cells. Inhibitory effects of a MEK inhibitor and lack of effect by dominant negative (DN)-JNK1 or DN-p38MAPK revealed that ERK but not JNK and p38MAPK is involved in MEKK-induced promoter activation. Deletion and mutation of the promoter revealed that the MEKK-responsive region was Sp1 site B between nucleotides -56 and -47. Overexpression of Sp1 suppressed promoter activity without affecting MEKK-induced activation. Interestingly, overexpression of Zif268 increased promoter activity through the region between nucleotides -56 and -36. Increased activity by Zif268 was additive with CaMKII-induced activation but not with activation induced by MEKK. Co-transfection with CaMKII stimulated nuclear translocation of Zif268. These results suggest that ERK and CaMKII positively regulate the D2R promoter and that Zif268 is a potential transcription factor for the CaMKII-dependent pathway.

T1  - The origin, fate, and health effects of combustion by-products: a research framework.
AN  - 21353561; 7705938
AB  - Incomplete combustion processes can emit organic pollutants, metals, and fine particles. Combustion by-products represent global human and environmental health challenges that are relevant not only in heavily industrialized nations, but also in developing nations where up to 90% of rural households rely on unprocessed biomass fuels for cooking, warmth, and light. These issues were addressed at the Seventh International Congress on Combustion By-Products, which convened 4-6 June 2001 in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. This congress included a diverse group of multidisciplinary researchers and practitioners who discussed recent developments and future goals in the control of combustion by-products and their effects of exposure on human and ecologic health. Participants recommended that interdisciplinary, coordinated research efforts should be focused to capitalize on the important potential synergisms between efforts to reduce the adverse human health effects linked to exposures to combustion by-products and broader efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and save energy through efficiency. In this article we summarize the principal findings and recommendations for research focus and direction.

T1  - Feeding has the largest effect on the ammonia excretion rate of the southern rock lobster, Jasus edwardsii, and the western rock lobster, Panulirus cygnus
AN  - 18950147; 5737684
AB  - The total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) excretion of spiny lobsters Jasus edwardsii and Panulirus cygnus, was determined in relation to temperature, body weight, emersion, daily rhythm and feeding. Temperature and body weight had large influences on the rate of TAN excretion. Exponential relationships were found between temperature (T) and TAN excretion of both species. These were described by the following equations: J. edwardsii Log sub(10) TAN=0.041T-3.57 (r super(2)=0.979, F=143.2, P=0.001), P. cygnus Log sub(10) TAN=0.057T-3.90 (r super(2)=0.987, F=302.2, P<0.001). TAN excretions of both species were positively correlated to body weight (W), and the relationships were described by the following equations: J. edwardsii Log sub(10) TAN=0.473 log sub(10) W-1.704 (r super(2)=0.42, F=14.05, P=0.001), P. cygnus Log sub(10) TAN=0.499 log sub(10) W-1.346 (r super(2)=0.69, F=44.18, P<0.001). TAN excretion increased significantly when lobsters were re-immersed after a 30 min period of emersion. However, it returned to pre-emersion levels by the second hour of re-immersion. Daily rhythm resulted in a significantly higher nocturnal TAN excretion rate for J. edwardsii; no daily rhythm was observed for P. cygnus. Feeding had the largest influence on TAN excretion, with maximum increases of 6.28 (J. edwardsii) and 5.60 (P. cygnus) times the pre-feeding level. TAN excretion rates remained significantly higher than the pre-feeding levels for an extended period (26 h, J. edwardsii; 30 h, P. cygnus). Implications for the use of purging tanks in lobster holding facilities and for the design of biofiltration systems are discussed.

T1  - "Perfect" markers for the Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b dwarfing genes in wheat
AN  - 18633467; 5535586
AB  - PCR-based markers were developed to detect the point mutations responsible for the two major semi-dwarfing genes Rht-B1b (Rht1) and Rht-D1b (Rht2) in wheat. These markers were validated by testing 19 wheat varieties of known Rht genotype. They included Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b dwarfs, double-mutant varieties and tall wheats. These were correctly genotyped with the Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b-specific primers, as well as markers specific for the tall alleles Rht-B1a and Rht-D1a. Using a family of doubled-haploid lines segregating for Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b, the markers were mapped to the expected homoeologous regions of chromosomes 4B and 4D, respectively. Both markers were strongly correlated with a reduction in height, accounting for 23% (Rht-B1b) and 44% (Rht-D1b) of the phenotypic variance in the population. These markers will have utility in marker-assisted selection of the Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b genes in wheat breeding programs.

T1  - Investigation of isolated positive syphilis enzyme immunoassay (ICE Murex) results
AN  - 18629760; 5535146
AB  - This study was conducted to determine the significance of an isolated positive (where all other syphilis serology is negative) syphilis enzyme immunoassay (EIA) test (ICE syphilis: Murex Diagnostics) in a sexual health clinic population. There were significantly greater numbers of isolated positive syphilis EIA tests at Sydney Sexual Health Centre (SSHC) (22/5478) compared to lower risk populations; Southeastern Sydney antenatal clinics (1/11560, P < 0.01) and Sydney Children's Hospital (0/3550, P < 0.01). We conducted a case control study comparing the cases at SSHC with two control groups drawn from the clinic population. A manual review of the case medical records searched for a history of suggested syphilis. Within the 22 cases, 32% had clinical grounds for suspecting that the EIA test signified syphilis. Men reporting homosexual contact in the past 12 months significantly distinguished cases from controls who tested negative for syphilis (OR=6.06). An isolated positive EIA test should prompt further investigation for syphilis, past or present.

T1  - Reproductive mode and split sex ratios in the facultatively ovoviviparous thrips, Bactrothrips brevitubus
AN  - 18619746; 5523211
AB  - Researching the evolution and maintenance of reproductive mode (oviparity, ovoviviparity and viviparity) is important for identifying the intrinsic and environmental pressures associated with maternal care. We studied the life history, reproductive mode and sex allocation of Bactrothrips brevitubus, a haplodiploid, facultatively ovoviviparous Japanese thrips. Individual females can produce a mass of eggs oviparously and single eggs ovoviviparously. In our study, about 30% of the females reproduced exclusively by oviparity. Nearly 60% of the oviparous females also reproduced ovoviviparously. Local resource competition between reproductive females for food and egg-laying sites may select for ovoviviparity, as females can retain the eggs until a better rearing site is located. We also have preliminary evidence that predatory mites promote ovoviviparity, as they consume the eggs but are ectoparasitic on larvae and adults. Another factor that may influence reproductive mode is that females can produce both sexes oviparously but only males ovoviviparously. Consequently, sex allocation and reproductive mode strategies act in tandem. The population-wide sex ratio was unbiased, whereas the sex ratio of broods that were produced at least partly oviparously was female biased. This female-biased sex ratio was not significantly different from that predicted by Godfray's split sex ratio model for a panmictic population. Even so, our evidence for local mate competition and local resource competition suggests that the sex ratios were not Fisherian. We predict that females should reproduce oviparously when constrained by local mate competition, ovoviviparously when constrained by mite predation, with or without local resource competition, and use a mixed strategy when constrained by mite predation and local mate competition.

T1  - The impact of the Internet in banking: observations and evidence from developed and emerging markets
AN  - 18608927; 5510705
AB  - This paper investigates the risk, efficiency and rate of progress in the implementation of electronic commerce (e-commerce) in a sample of banks from a developed country (the US), and a sample of banks from developing and emerging markets. The results confirm that the US is very advanced in its electronic-banking (e-banking) actuation. There is evidence suggesting that e-banking is driven largely by the prospects of operating costs minimisation and operating revenue maximisation. Costs are lower and revenues higher when banking services are delivered through a branch network. The results also suggest that perceptions of banking risk may be partially driven by similar factors. Using a basic risk-scoring model, bank risk scores (reflecting a bank's ability to repay depositors) are regressed against operating efficiency measures.

AB  - Under the 1996 Food Quality Protection Act, EPA sets allowable pesticide residue levels for food. The Act mandates a reasonable certainty of no harm from pesticide exposure and requires reevaluation of tolerances against this standard by August 2006. EPA is directed to assess aggregate exposure risks of individual pesticides and cumulative risks of different pesticides with similar toxic effects. A test case for implementation of the Act is assessment of risks for organophosphate (OP) insecticides, and EPA has already canceled registrations for some OP uses. Agricultural and public health groups have challenged the statutory implementation pace and process in court.

AB  - After the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, NRC activated its Emergency Response Center and advised all plant operators to go to the highest level of security alert, where they have since remained. NRC also initiated a top-to-bottom review of its security requirements, and in February 2002 issued interim compensatory security measures to deal with the generalized high-level threat environment that continues to exist for nuclear power stations. Legislation to increase security measures and requirements, including proposals to establish a federal nuclear guard force, was introduced in the 107th Congress, but none was passed.

T1  - Data input quality and resolution effects on regional and local scale Eucalyptus globulus productivity predictions in north-east Tasmania
AN  - 18621358; 5515376
AB  - To examine the effect of multi-scaled soils and climate data on a process-based productivity model, we apply the same forest productivity model (PROMOD), at five resolutions. We compare point growth predictions using site information sampled in a representative 10 m x 10 m area within 26 commercial Eucalyptus globulus plantations in north-east Tasmania with the corresponding measured site and growth data gathered at the same resolution. Five input data sets are generated at increasingly coarse grid scales from climate and soils databases (50, 100, 200, 500 and 1000 m). Our results indicate that forest productivity models like PROMOD are not scale dependent and even with the use of broad-scale input data the model provides an unbiased estimate of the mean productivity for studies covering large geographic extents. However, our comparison using fine-scale data shows that sub-grid variance at broad scales can be very large, particularly for soil variables that can change abruptly over short distances. We conclude that although PROMOD may be used over a range of scales with some confidence, specific applications will require different scales of data input and quality.

T1  - Provenance effects on pre-germination treatments for Eucalyptus regnans and E. delegatensis seed
AN  - 18484477; 5440961
AB  - The effects of seed size, and of chilling and smoking pre-treatments on germination of commercial Eucalyptus regnans and Eucalyptus delegatensis seedlots selected from provenances at various altitudes were investigated. Seed viability was relatively high in E. regnans compared to that of E. delegatensis. Large E. regnans seed germinated at a faster rate than small seed, but there was no difference between E. delegatensis seed sizes. Chilling imbibed seed for 1 week at 4 degree C increased germination rate in the higher altitude E. regnans seedlot but had no effect on seed from the lower altitude. Chilling for 1 and 3 weeks increased germination rate and percent in all E. delegatensis seedlots, with the greatest response being observed in seed from the highest altitude. Exposing seed to smoke had no effect on germination of either E. regnans or E. delegatensis. The results indicate that concerns over low germination rates in commercial E. regnans seedlots may be unfounded in some seedlots and the species could be successfully incorporated into commercial tree nursery operations without substantially altering management practices. However, for E. delegatensis improved seed cleaning and chilling imbibed seed for 3 weeks prior to sowing may be required to improve germination rate and percentage.

T1  - Low molecular weight heparins and heparinoids.
AN  - 72150030; 12358583
AB  - Several low molecular weight (LMW) heparin preparations, including dalteparin, enoxaparin and nadroparin, as well as the heparinoid danaparoid sodium, are approved for use in Australia. LMW heparins are replacing unfractionated heparin for the prevention and treatment of venous thromboembolism and the treatment of non-ST-segment-elevation acute coronary syndromes. The advantages of LMW heparins over unfractionated heparin include a longer half-life (allowing once-daily or twice-daily subcutaneous dosing), high bioavailability and predictable anticoagulant response (avoiding the need for dose adjustment or laboratory monitoring in most patients), and a low risk of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia and osteoporosis. Laboratory monitoring of LMW heparin therapy should be considered in newborns and children, patients with renal impairment, those who are pregnant, and those at the extremes of bodyweight (eg,  100 kg). LMW heparins should: be avoided or used with caution in patients undergoing neuraxial anaesthesia, owing to the potential for epidural haematoma formation; not be used (ie, are contraindicated) in patients with immune heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, as they may cross-react with anti-heparin antibodies. Conventional unfractionated heparin retains a role in the management of patients at high risk of bleeding, undergoing invasive procedures, and patients with renal failure owing to its shorter half-life, reversibility with protamine sulfate, and extrarenal metabolism. The heparinoid danaparoid sodium is effective for the treatment of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia.

T1  - Estimating occupational exposure to the pyrethroid termiticide bifenthrin by measuring metabolites in urine.
AN  - 72175652; 12376119
AB  - The control of subterranean termites in Australia is predominantly through the application of chemical barriers in the soil beneath and surrounding buildings. The chemicals used to repel or kill termites are the organophosphorus insecticide, chlorpyrifos, and the synthetic pyrethroid, bifenthrin. These are applied through surface sprays and subfloor injection by licensed pest control operators. To determine the exposure of these personnel to these pesticides it is most usual to measure airborne concentrations or dermal deposition rates. However, to support information obtained from these methods it is often appropriate to determine the amount of the chemicals absorbed, using biological monitoring techniques including measurement of the chemicals or their metabolites in urine. While there are effective techniques for the monitoring of chlorpyrifos exposure by measuring either the alkyl phosphate or trichloropyridinol metabolites, there have been no published reports of suitable methods to measure bifenthrin metabolites in urine. This paper describes an extraction and HPLC-UV method used to simultaneously measure the urinary excretion of 2-methyl-3-phenylbenzoic acid (MPA), a metabolite of bifenthrin, and 3-phenoxybenzoic acid (PBA), a metabolite of several other common pyrethroid insecticides, with a detection limit for each of 2.5 ng/ml. The paper also describes the pilot application of this method to a study of South Australian pest control operators handling bifenthrin. MPA ranged from 1.8 to 31.9 microg/g creatinine and PBA from 1.3 to 30.0 microg/g in the urine of pest control workers. MPA was detected in urine of control workers without bifenthrin exposure only at low levels (1.0-1.4 microg/g creatinine), but PBA was found in both at higher levels (1.2-61.1 microg/g creatinine).

T1  - Comparison of DNA and RNA based real-time PCR assays for quantitative detection of chromosomal translocations
AN  - 18625446; 5538733
AB  - Human malignant chromosomal translocation involved immunoglobulin gene (Ig) at chromosome 14 and bcl-2 protooncogene on chromosome 18 is frequently used as a molecular marker for lymphomas. We studied the application of real-time PCR (TaqMan PCR) for quantitative detection of the human lymphocyte cells bearing chromosomal translocation. Three approaches for real-time PCR standards were compared (1) mixing cells with and without translocation before DNA extraction, (2) dilution of plasmid DNA with translocation marker into background DNA, (3) dilution of plasmid RNA with translocation marker into background RNA with a following reverse-transcriptase reaction. This study was conducted to investigate potential differences in sensitivity, resolution and variability between different real-time assays. We found the dilution of plasmid DNA with translocation fragment at background DNA to be the most accurate and sensitive method for building real-time PCR standards.

T1  - The use of extended amino acid motifs for focussing on toxic peptides in coeliac disease.
AN  - 72191239; 12385967
AB  - Cereal prolamins of wheat, rye and barley are the major proteins that have been implicated in toxicity in patients with coeliac disease. The gliadins of wheat are the best characterised with the identification of toxic peptides from rye and barley not as well advanced. This study has employed extended motifs, based on the known toxic motifs are derived from the sequence of A-gliadin, to search protein databases for matches with coeliac-toxic cereals. The results obtained have provided pointers to specific regions in rye and barley prolamins, which have received little attention in in vitro and in vivo studies of toxicity in coeliac disease. The results obtained in this study indicate that the size of the extended motif is critical when searching for coeliac-toxic cereals using protein databases. Extended motifs that are common to all three coeliac-toxic cereals and found in active wheat gliadin peptides are QQPYP, PQQPY and QQQPFP.

T1  - Site-directed integration of the cre gene mediated by Cre recombinase using a combination of mutant lox sites.
AN  - 72150823; 12364620
AB  - The Cre-lox system is an important tool for genetic manipulation. To promote integrative reactions, two strategies using mutant lox sites have been developed. One is the left element/right element (LE/RE)-mutant strategy and the other is the cassette exchange strategy using heterospecific lox sites such as lox511 or lox2272. We compared the recombination efficiencies using these mutant lox sites in embryonic stem (ES) cells, and found that the combination of the LE/RE mutant and lox2272 showed high recombination efficiency and stability of the recombined structure. Taking advantage of this stability, we successfully integrated the cre gene into the mutant lox sites by Cre-mediated recombination. Germ line chimeric mice were produced from the cre-integrated ES cell clones, and Cre-expressing mouse lines were established. The inserted cre gene was stably maintained through the generations. This cre knock-in system using the LE/RE-lox2272 combination should be useful for the production of various cre mice for gene targeting or gene trapping.

T1  - Analysis on the promoter region of exon IV brain-derived neurotrophic factor in NG108-15 cells.
AN  - 72139986; 12358730
AB  - We have reported that the nuclear isoforms of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM KII) are involved in the expression of the exon IV-containing brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mRNA. We document here the cis-elements and transcription factors responsive to CaM KII in the activation of the promoter upstream of the exon IV (exon IV-BDNF promoter). Effects of constitutively active mutants of CaM KIV, MAPK kinase kinase (MEKK) and protein kinase A (PKA) on the exon IV-BDNF promoter activity were also evaluated by transfection and luciferase assay. The exon IV-BDNF promoter activity was increased by transfection with CaM KII, MEKK and PKA, but not by CaM KIV. Deletion and mutational analysis of the promoter revealed that the region between nucleotides -56 and -27 was responsive to CaM KII, which contained a CCAAT-box in the region between nucleotides -56 and -43. Expression of C/EBPbeta increased the promoter activity and potentiated the effects of CaM KII. The region between nucleotides -79 and -56 was responsive to MEKK, in which both a GA-rich sequence and a GC-box were included. Expression of Sp1 increased the promoter activity, which was further enhanced by transfection with MEKK. The region between nucleotides -43 and -27 was responsive to both PKA and CaM KII, but the transcription factors involved in the region remained unclear. These results suggest that the promoter of the exon IV-BDNF is at least regulated by CaM KII, MEKK and PKA, and that C/EBP/beta and Sp1 are potential transcription factors activated by CaM KII and MEKK, respectively.

T1  - Forging a Union of the Party Left and Social Left
AN  - 60671569; 200313194
AB  - It is contended that leftist parties that attempt to realize political change via transforming existing institutions (such groups are named "party-Left" groups) & those that utilize revolutionary or guerrilla warfare (designated as "social-Left" groups) must collaborate to realistically challenge the expansion of capitalism & neoliberalism. Although certain objective conditions are identified that could facilitate the creation of a unified Leftist platform, sundry subjective circumstances (eg, the lack of an alternative to capitalism) that could hinder such efforts are highlighted. In addition, difficulties encountered by party-Left & social-Left groups are noted; for example, it is noted that party-Left groups generally attempt to homogenize their social bases & frequently use authoritarian methods. Consequently, the establishment of a unified leftist group that emphasizes the formation of a noncapitalist social project & the formation of popular democracy is advocated. In addition, multiple objectives for the unified leftist group are set, eg, creating spaces that permit noncapitalist & anti-neoliberal movements to consult with one another. J. W. Parker

However, the incident was only the most recent in a long & often fractious history of like disputes going back to the 1950s, in which the GAO, acting on its own or on behalf of a Congressional entity, has been refused access to CIA data & thus rendered unable to thoroughly or even partially audit, investigate, or review the agency. 153 References.

T1  - Adopting "In God We Trust" as the U.S. National Motto
AN  - 60143143; 200308465
AB  - Explores the origin of legislation to adopt "In God We Trust" as the US national motto, consequent litigation, & judicial doctrines viewing the motto as secular rather than religious. The exclusionary nature of the motto is cited; thus, this history is traced against the motto's more inclusive counterpart, E pluribus unum. Civil War-era initiatives surrounding currency are described, focusing on Secretary of the Treasury Samuel P. Chase's efforts. Theodore Roosevelt's campaign to change US currency is detailed, highlighting his desire to remove the motto from coins for aesthetic reasons. The public's negative reaction is noted, highlighting legislation introduced to reverse Roosevelt's decision. Post-WWII legislation to set aside a national day of prayer, revise the pledge of allegiance to include "under God," return "In God We Trust" to coinage, & adopt it as the national motto is discussed, along with the litigation surrounding the motto since 1962. It is argued that spiritualism & unity come to the fore during national crises (eg, Civil War), leading to a reliance on religious inscription, something of a paradox in a nation known for its religious tolerance & diversity.

T1  - Elemental carbon and PM(2.5 )levels in an urban community heavily impacted by truck traffic.
AN  - 21344552; 7705892
AB  - Hunts Point, a 690-acre peninsula in the South Bronx, New York City, is a hub in the tristate (New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut) freight transportation system. This study was carried out in response to community concerns about potential health effects of exposure to diesel exhaust particulate (DEP). We measured particulate matter < 2.5 microm in aerodynamic diameter (PM(2.5)) and elemental carbon (EC) on sidewalks and tested whether spatial variations in concentrations were related to local truck traffic density. Ten-hour integrated air samples for EC and PM(2.5) were collected for 9 days over a 3-week period in the summer of 1999 at seven geographically distinct intersections. Simultaneous traffic counts were carried out for each sampling event. Traffic was classified into three classes: passenger cars, small trucks, and large trucks (diesel vehicles). Mean diesel vehicle volumes ranged from 9.3 to 276.5 vehicles/hr across sites. Mean EC concentrations by site ranged from 2.6 microg/m(3) at the control site to 7.3 microg/m(3) along a designated truck route. Linear regression of site-specific mean EC concentration on mean large truck counts predicted an increase of 1.69 microg/m(3) EC per 100 large trucks/hr (SE = 0.37; p = 0.01; R(2) = 0.84). Average PM(2.5) concentrations by site ranged 1.6-fold (19.0-29.9 microg/m(3)) and were more weakly associated with local traffic. Variations over time for PM(2.5 )were more pronounced, ranging almost 4-fold (8.9-34.4 microg/m(3)). These results show that airborne EC concentrations, an important component of DEP, are elevated in Hunts Point and that the impact varies across the community as a function of large truck traffic.

T1  - Guanine and 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-guanine-specific oxidation in DNA by chromium(V).
AN  - 21276616; 11704999
AB  - The hexavalent oxidation state of chromium [Cr(VI)] is a well-established human carcinogen, although the mechanism of cancer induction is currently unknown. Intracellular reduction of Cr(VI) forms Cr(V), which is thought to play a fundamental role in the mechanism of DNA damage by this carcinogen. Two separate pathways of DNA damage, an oxidative pathway and a metal-binding pathway, have been proposed to account for the lesions observed in cell systems. We have used a model Cr(V) complex, N,N-ethylenebis(salicylidene-animato)oxochromium(V) [Cr(V)-Salen], to investigate the oxidative pathway of DNA damage and to elucidate the lesions generated from this oxidation process. Reaction of Cr(V)-Salen with synthetic oligonucleotides produced guanine-specific lesions that were not 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine, based on the inability of iridium(IV) to further oxidize these sites. Oxidation products were identified using a 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-G) containing oligonucleotide to increase the yields of product for identification by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. The guanine-based lesions observed by mass spectrometry corresponded to the lesions guanidinohydantoin and spiroiminodihydantoin. The effects of these Cr(V)-Salen-induced lesions on DNA replication fidelity was assayed using a polymerase-based misincorporation assay. These lesions produced G --> T transversion mutations and polymerase stops at levels greater than those observed for 8-oxo-G. These data suggest a model by which chromate can cause DNA damage leading to mutations and cancer.

T1  - A role for associated transition metals in the immunotoxicity of inhaled ambient particulate matter.
AN  - 21256753; 11702296
AB  - Epidemiologic studies demonstrate that infection, specifically pneumonia, contributes substantially to the increased morbidity and mortality among elderly individuals following exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM). This laboratory has previously demonstrated that a single inhalation exposure of Streptococcus pneumoniae-infected rats to concentrated ambient PM(2.5) (particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter & or =2.5 microm) from New York City (NYC) air exacerbates the infection process and alters pulmonary and systemic immunity. Although these results provide some basis for explaining the epidemiologic findings, the identity of specific PM constituents that might have been responsible for the worsening pneumonia in exposed hosts remains unclear. Thus, studies were performed to correlate the physicochemical attributes of ambient PM(2.5) with its in vivo immunotoxicity to identify and characterize the role of constitutive transition metals in exacerbating an ongoing streptococcal infection. Uninfected or previously infected rats were exposed in the laboratory to soluble divalent Fe, Mn, or Ni chloride salts. After exposure, uninfected rats were sacrificed and their lungs were lavaged. Lungs from infected hosts were used to evaluate changes in bacterial clearance and effects of exposure on the extent/severity of infection. Results demonstrated that inhalation of Fe altered innate and adaptive immunity in uninfected hosts, and both Fe and Ni reduced pulmonary bacterial clearance in previously infected rats. The effects on clearance produced in infected Fe-exposed rats were similar to those seen in infected rats exposed to ambient NYC PM. Taken together, these studies demonstrate that inhaled ambient PM can worsen the outcome of an ongoing pulmonary infection and that associated Fe may play some role in the immunotoxicity.

T1  - Use of XAS for the elucidation of metal structure and function: applications to nickel biochemistry, molecular toxicology, and carcinogenesis.
AN  - 21251344; 11704140
AB  - Nickel has been shown to be an essential trace element involved in the metabolism of several species of bacteria, archea, and plants. In these organisms, nickel is involved in enzymes that catalyze both non-redox (e.g., urease, glyoxalase I) and redox (e.g., hydrogenase, carbon monoxide dehydrogenase, superoxide dismutase) reactions, and proteins involved in the transport, storage, metallocenter assembly, and regulation of nickel concentration have evolved. Studies of structure/function relationships in nickel biochemistry reveal that cysteine ligands are used to stabilize the Ni(III/II) redox couple. Certain nickel compounds have also been shown to be potent human carcinogens. A likely target for carcinogenic nickel is nuclear histone proteins. Here we present X-ray absorption spectroscopic studies of a model Ni peptide designed to help characterize the structure of the nickel complexes formed with histones and place them in the context of nickel structure/function relationships, to gain insights into the molecular mechanism of nickel carcinogenesis.

T1  - Signaling from toxic metals to NF-kappaB and beyond: not just a matter of reactive oxygen species.
AN  - 21250897; 11702294
AB  - The nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB) family of transcription factors controls expression of a number of early response genes associated with inflammatory responses, cell growth, cell cycle progression, and neoplastic transformation. These genes include a multitude of cytokines, chemokines, adhesion molecules, immune receptors, stress proteins, apoptotic or anti-apoptotic regulators, and several oncogenes. Accumulating evidence indicates that a variety of toxic metals are able to affect the activation or activity of NF-kappaB, but the molecular mechanisms involved in this process remain largely unknown. The signaling pathways mediating cytokine- or microorganism-induced NF-kappaB activation have been well established recently. Whether the same signaling systems are involved in metal-induced NF-kappaB activation, however, is unclear. In the present review, we have attempted to evaluate and update the possible mechanisms of metal signals on the activation and function of NF-kappaB.

T1  - Pathology related to chronic arsenic exposure.; Pathology related to chronic arsenic exposure.
AN  - 21250731; 11704145
AB  - Millions now suffer the effects of chronic arseniasis related to environmental arsenic exposure. The biological mechanisms responsible for arsenic-induced toxicity and especially chronic effects, including cancer, are not well known. The U.S. Armed Forces Institute of Pathology (AFIP) is participating in an international research effort to improve this understanding by the development of the International Tissue and Tumor Repository for Chronic Arsenosis (ITTRCA). The ITTRCA obtains, archives, and makes available for research purposes, tissues from subjects exposed to arsenic. We provide here a short overview of arsenic-induced pathology, briefly describe arsenic-induced lesions in the skin and liver, and present five case reports from the ITTRCA. Arsenic-induced skin pathology includes hyperkeratosis, pigmentation changes, Bowen disease, squamous cell carcinoma, and basal cell carcinomas. A unique spectrum of skin lesions, known as arsenical keratosis, is rather characteristic of chronic arseniasis. Bowen disease, or squamous cell carcinoma in situ of the skin, has been well documented as a consequence of arsenical exposure. A spectrum of liver lesions has also been attributed to chronic arseniasis. Of these, hepatocellular carcinoma, angiosarcoma, cirrhosis, and hepatoportal sclerosis have been associated with arsenic exposure. We present case reports that relate to these health conditions, namely, squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, and Bowen disease of the skin and hepatocellular carcinoma and angiosarcoma of the liver. Four patients had been treated with arsenical medications for such conditions as asthma, psoriasis, and syphilis, and one case occurred in a boy chronically exposed to arsenic in drinking water.

T1  - Comparison of decay rates of faecal indicator organisms in recreational coastal water and sediment
AN  - 19766380; 5466534
AB  - A laboratory based microcosm study utilising intact non-sterile sediment cores was undertaken to determine the survival of the faecal indicator organisms Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecium and somatic coliphage in both recreational coastal water and sediment. Overlying water was inoculated with the test organisms and incubated at 10 degree C, 20 degree C or 30 degree C. E. coli, enterococcus and coliphage were enumerated from the water column and sediment by the membrane filtration method, Enterolert (IDEXX Laboratories) and the double-agar overlay methods respectively on days 0, 1, 2, 7, 14 and 28 following inoculation. It was demonstrated that for all organisms, greater decay (k; d super(-1)) occurred in the water column compared to sediment. Sediment characteristics were found to influence decay, with lowest decay rates observed in sediment consisting of high organic carbon content and small particle size. Decay of E. coli was significantly greater in both the water column and sediment compared with enterococcus and coliphage under all conditions. Decay of enterococcus was found to closely resemble that of coliphage decay. Survival of all organisms was inversely related to temperature, with greatest decay at 30 degree C. However, increased temperature had a less significant impact on survival of enterococcus and coliphage compared with E. coli. The importance of this study for estimating risk from recreational exposure is great if some pathogenic microorganisms behave similarly to the organisms tested in this study. In particular if survival rates of pathogens are similar to enterococcus and coliphage, then their ability to accumulate in coastal sediment may lead to an increased risk of exposure if these organisms are resuspended into the water column due to natural turbulence or human recreational activity.

T1  - Substrate complexity influences the preference of a predatory stonefly, Eusthenia costalis Banks (Plecoptera: Eustheniidae), for its prey
AN  - 18798691; 5674421
AB  - Prey selection of the stonefly Eusthenia costalis was investigated by presenting late instars with a choice of three different prey species [Nousia sp. Navas (Ephemeroptera: Leptophlebiidae), Neboissoperla sp. McLellan (Plecoptera: Gripopterygidae) and Antipodeus sp. Williams and Barnard (Amphipoda: Paramelitidae)] or two distinct size classes of Nousia. To determine whether substrate complexity influences the foraging preference of E. costalis selection trials were conducted using two different levels of substrate complexity: "fine" (sieve dimension 1-4 mm), and "coarse" (8-16 mm); Stonefly nymphs selected Nousia in fine substrate and Neboissoperla in coarse substrate. Stonefly nymphs were not selective, based upon the size of Nousia prey in fine substrate, however, they preferred large Nousia in the more complex substrate. Irrespective of substrate complexity, as the size of E. costalis nymphs increased preference for Neboissoperla declined.

T1  - Rethinking the role of many plant phenolics - protection from photodamage not herbivores?
AN  - 18611945; 5515217
AB  - Phenolics have been considered classic defence compounds for protecting plants from herbivores, ever since plant secondary metabolites were suggested to have evolved for that reason. The resource availability and carbon-nutrient balance hypotheses proposed that variation in phenolic levels between and within plant species reflects environmental availability of nutrients and light, and represents a trade-off in allocation by plants to growth and defence against herbivores. In contrast to these concepts, we suggest that (1) the main role of many plant phenolics may be to protect leaves from photodamage, not herbivores; (2) they can achieve this by acting as antioxidants; and (3) their levels may vary with environmental conditions in order to counteract this potential photodamage. We therefore suggest that patterns in phenolic levels, often used to support the concept of trade-off between growth and herbivore defence in relation to resource availability, may actually reflect different risks of photodamage. We suggest that the level of many phenolics is low under some environmental conditions, not because resources to produce them are limited, but simply because the risk of photodamage is low and they are not required. If our photodamage hypothesis is correct, a reassessment of the ecological and evolutionary role of many phenolics in plant defence theory is required.

T1  - Factors affecting invasion and persistence of broom Cytisus scoparius in Australia
AN  - 18607133; 5493338
AB  - 1. The effective management of invasive plants requires an understanding of their invasiveness in contrasting environments. The effects of disturbance on recruitment of broom Cytisus scoparius, a European shrub invading parts of Australasia, was assessed in a 7-year experiment carried out in two countries, respectively, in its native and exotic ranges. This paper presents the results for Australia and their implications for the biological control of this weed. 2. Disturbance treatments involved removal (cut or cut plus cultivation) and grazing effects on broom seed banks and recruitment, in mature and immature stands and in three habitats, ranging from improved, largely exotic pasture to unimproved native grassland. 3. The time between recruitment and flowering varied between 5 and 7 years depending on habitat, the slowest being in native unimproved grassland. In cultivated plots, regeneration was faster in immature compared with mature broom stands. 4. Following broom removal, whether the ground was cultivated or not had little effect on the speed of regeneration, indicating weak suppression from the ground flora in uncultivated plots. In contrast, grazing tended to increase the rate of regeneration. 5. The timing of seedling establishment had little effect on survival to reproduction, in marked contrast to European populations. The overall rates of seedling mortality were greater in Australia compared with Europe. 6. A simulation model, parameterized from the field data, was used to explore the likely impact of biological control from pre-dispersal seed predation. 7. The simulation studies demonstrated large habitat-specific differences in seed rain requirement for broom persistence and the potential impact of seed predators. Seed rain requirements were fivefold less in improved exotic pasture vs. native grassland. Seed loss of 62% was theoretically sufficient to suppress broom in native grassland, whereas > 97% was required in exotic pasture. 8. This study suggests that successful broom control in Australia is likely to be site dependent, because while broom seed has greater opportunities for recruitment in Australia than in Europe, immature plant mortality can be very high, particularly in native grassland.

T1  - Egg production in the arrow squid Nototodarus gouldi (Cephalopoda: Ommastrephidae), fast and furious or slow and steady?
AN  - 18597422; 5468294
AB  - The process of reproductive maturation and egg release was examined in the temperate shelf squid Nototodarus gouldi. The energy allocation between somatic and reproductive growth from juvenile to mature adult was investigated throughout the life span to determine the underlying energetic strategy adopted by individuals. The relative weight of the mantle, fin and digestive gland remained unchanged during ovarian development, with no significant correlations found between the mantle length (ML)-gonad residuals and the ML-mantle (r=0.01, P>0.05), ML-fin (r=0.07, P>0.05) and ML-digestive gland (r=0.07, P>0.05) residuals. This suggested that energy was not being diverted away from somatic growth during sexual development, and consequently neither muscle nor digestive gland was being utilised as an energy store. Since squid in all maturity stages contained some food in their stomachs (e.g. 66.7% of mature animals), it is likely that the cost of maturation in this species is largely being met by food intake. The energy investment in reproductive tissues was relatively low (mean gonado-somatic index for mature individuals was 9.29% plus or minus 0.40%), indicating that only small amounts of energy were being allocated to reproduction at anyone point in time, which is characteristic of a multiple-spawning strategy. Furthermore, oviduct weight was not correlated with body size (r=0.256, P>0.05), suggesting that eggs are not stored for a single release. In all except one individual, ovary weight was consistently heavier than oviduct weight, suggesting that the ovary is not being depleted of oocytes as mature ova move into the oviducts. Additionally, the ovaries of mature females contained a range of oocyte sizes with discrete peaks, indicating a continued production and development of oocyte cohorts. The presence of some individuals with stretched empty oviducts is further evidence that the reproductive strategy of N. gouldi is slow and steady, with eggs possibly being released in discrete batches over a period of time.

T1  - Functional Expression of Enterobacterial O-Polysaccharide Biosynthesis Enzymes in Bacillus subtilis
AN  - 18593888; 5457339
AB  - The expression of heterologous bacterial glycosyltransferases is of interest for potential application in the emerging field of carbohydrate engineering in gram-positive organisms. To assess the feasibility of using enzymes from gram- negative bacteria, the functional expression of the genes wbaP (formerly rfbP), wecA (formerly rfe), and wbbO (formerly rfbF) from enterobacterial lipopolysaccharide O-polysaccharide biosynthesis pathways was examined in Bacillus subtilis. WbaP and WecA are initiation enzymes for O- polysaccharide formation, catalyzing the transfer of galactosyl 1-phosphate from UDP-galactose and N-acetylglucosaminyl 1-phosphate from UDP-N- acetylglucosamine, respectively, to undecaprenylphosphate. The WecA product (undecaprenylpyrophosphoryl GlcNAc) is used as an acceptor to which the bifunctional wbbO gene product sequentially adds a galactopyranose and a galactofuranose residue from the corresponding UDP sugars to form a lipid-linked trisaccharide. Genes were cloned into the shuttle vectors pRB374 and pAW10. In B. subtilis hosts, the genes were effectively transcribed under the vegII promoter control of pRB374, but the plasmids were susceptible to rearrangements and deletion. In contrast, pAW10-based constructs, in which genes were cloned downstream of the tet resistance cassette, were stable but yielded lower levels of enzyme activity. In vitro glycosyltransferase assays were performed in Escherichia coli and B. subtilis, using membrane preparations as sources of enzymes and endogenous undecaprenylphosphate as an acceptor. Incorporation of radioactivity from UDP-[alpha]-D- super(14)C-sugar into reaction products verified the functionality of WbaP, WecA, and WbbO in either host. Enzyme activities in B. subtilis varied between 20 and 75% of those measured in E. coli.

T1  - Syndrome X in 8-y-old Australian children: stronger associations with current body fatness than with infant size or growth
AN  - 18536377; 5495918
AB  - OBJECTIVE: Syndrome X (clustering of insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia and hypertension) in adults with central obesity has been suggested to be a consequence of poor foetal development. We investigated clustering of syndrome X factors in a sample of 8-y-old Australian children, and whether the clusters were associated with size at birth and childhood obesity. DESIGN: Longitudinal, 1997 follow-up of children enrolled as singleton-born neonates in 1989. SUBJECTS: A total of 298 healthy Australian children (208 boys, 90 girls, age range 7.4-8.9 y). MEASUREMENTS: Anthropometry at birth and at 4 weeks. In 1997, at 8 y of age: fasting insulin and glucose, total and HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides and blood pressure. RESULTS: Adverse levels of insulin and glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides co-existed more often than expected by chance (P < 0.01). Three factors were identified in factor analysis: one loading on systolic and diastolic blood pressure (`blood pressure'); a second loading on insulin and glucose (`insulin resistance'); and a third loading negatively on HDL-cholesterol and positively on triglycerides (`dyslipidaemia'). The blood pressure factor was correlated with fatness at age 8 y (eg fat mass estimated from skin folds, r = 0.11) and, after adjustment for current size, with birth weight (r = -0.15). Fat mass was also correlated with both `insulin resistance' (r = 0.24) and `dyslipidaemia' (r = 0.19). The increase in `insulin resistance' (P = 0.03) and `dyslipidaemia' (P < 0.01) per category of fat mass was greatest for subjects with higher-than-median subscapular-to-triceps ratio of skin folds. Neither `insulin resistance' nor `dyslipidaemia' was associated with anthropometry at birth. CONCLUSIONS: The Syndrome X risk variables clustered among children who had a tendency to deposit fat on the trunk. There was no evidence in this sample that infant size predicts development of the insulin resistance or dyslipidaemic components of the syndrome by age 8.

T1  - Do wildlife passages act as prey-traps?
AN  - 18449470; 5427270
AB  - A number of studies have proposed that wildlife passages beneath roads and railway lines might be exploited by mammalian predators as `prey-traps' with prey-species being effectively funnelled into areas of high concentration. This proposition has raised the possibility that use of passages by predators may reduce the effectiveness of passages in conserving other forms of wildlife. We review the literature and conclude that evidence for the existence of prey-traps is scant, largely anecdotal and tends to indicate infrequent opportunism rather than the establishment of patterns of recurring predation. Most passage studies record no evidence of predation in or around passages. Conversely, there is some evidence that predator species use different passages than their prey.

T1  - High-sensitivity measurements of strontium isotopes in polar ice
AN  - 16152205; 5630277
AB  - Techniques have been developed to measure the isotopic composition and concentration of Sr at sub-nanogram per gram levels in polar snow and ice samples. A super(84)Sr spike was used to determine Sr concentrations on a single sample aliquot of a few millilitre. Microlitre scale columns of Sr-Spec resin were used to purify Sr samples. Thermal ionisation mass spectrometry (TIMS) was used to measure the Sr isotopic ratios. A single TIMS measurement of the Sr sample yielded both isotopic composition and concentration after deconvolution of spike and sample spectra. This allows isotopic variations in Sr to be used to identify source regions of crustal dust. Early Holocene and last glacial maximum ice core samples from both Antarctica and Greenland were analysed to demonstrate the applicability of the technique. Sr isotopes were analysed in similar to 20 g sized samples of Antarctic early Holocene ice where the concentration was only similar to 31 pg g super(-1). This represents an improvement of two orders of magnitude in sample consumption over previous studies allowing for a much higher time resolution in the analysis of polar ice cores.

T1  - Induction of Apoptosis in Mammalian Cells by Cadmium and Zinc
AN  - 14646723; 10633880
AB  - The induction of apoptosis in mammalian cells by cadmium and by zinc is described. Data gleaned from the literature and from laboratory studies show that, for both metals, the mitochondrium appears to be the main target to trigger apoptosis. At high Zn concentrations, programmed cell death in C6 cells was observed, similar to that observed for Cd. However, Cd was solely toxic, while Zn protected from DNA fragmentation induced by Cd, which is attributed to the competition between Zn and Cd for the same cellular uptake mechanism. Programmed cell death induced by Cd in C6 cells was found to be independent of all major signal transduction pathways investigated, including inhibition or activation of protein kinase A and protein kinase C, inhibition of mitogen-activated protein kinase, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase, and calciumcalmodulin-dependent protein kinase, or activation of protein kinase G.

T1  - Attenuation of Nuclear Factor Kappa B (NF-B) Promotes Apoptosis of Kidney Epithelial Cells: a Potential Mechanism of Mercury-Induced Nephrotoxicity
AN  - 14646682; 10633871
AB  - Previous studies have shown that divalent mercury, one of the most potent thiol-directed agents known, attenuates nuclear factor kappa B (NF-B) activation in kidney cells at low concentrations. Results are presented from a study in which the implications of Hg-mediated attenuation of NF-B activity in kidney cells were investigated with respect to Hg-induced nephrotoxicity. NRK52E cells, a clonal line established from normal rat tubular epithelial cells, were exposed to Hg. At cellular concentrations that did not compromise cellular energy production, Hg impaired activation of NF-B, which increased the sensitivity of kidney cells to the apoptosis-inducing effects of other toxicants and infectious agents. Pretreatment of the cells with Hg, however, did not substantially increase the amount of apoptosis found after treatment of cells with apoptosis-inducing agents that did not concomitantly activate NF-B.

T1  - The Molecular Mechanisms of Arsenic-Induced Cell Transformation and Apoptosis
AN  - 14646567; 10633861
AB  - JB6 Cl 41 cells were exposed to arsenite in soft agar to assess the induction of cell transformation. The results showed that cell transformation occurred only in cells exposed to arsenite concentrations ranging 0.525.0 mu M, but due to the toxicity of As, no transformed colonies were observed at higher concentrations, due apparently to the induction of apoptosis. Results also showed that arsenite could induce activation of both c-Jun NH sub(2)-terminal kinases and extracellular signal-regulated kinases, but the activations differed in a time- and dose-related manner. Arsenic-induced cell transformation was blocked by inhibiting extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases activation, and As-induced apoptosis was blocked by inhibition of c-Jun NH sub(2)-terminal kinases. Arsenic-induced apoptosis was also inhibited by blocking nuclear factor kappa B activation.

T1  - Molecular Mechanisms of in Vivo Metal Chelation: Implications for Clinical Treatment of Metal Intoxications
AN  - 14646527; 10633884
AB  - Chelating agents can affect metal toxicity by mobilizing the total metal mainly into urine, but a chelating agent can also form a stable complex with a toxic metal, shielding biological targets from the metal ion. Orally administered chelating agents forming hydrophilic metal complexes may efficiently reduce intestinal metal uptake and local toxicity. The role of such chelating agents in mediating metal intoxication is discussed in terms of thermodynamic considerations, the hardness/softness of metal ions and ligands, and complexation reactions in vivo between toxic metals and therapeutic chelating agents that occur often as a series of ligand and/or metal exchange reactions. The toxicities of three chelating agents-British antilewisite, dimercaptosuccinic acid, and dimercaptopropionic sulfonate-are considered.

T1  - The Role of Hypoxia-Inducible Signaling Pathway in Nickel Carcinogenesis
AN  - 14646524; 10633873
AB  - Recent studies have suggested that nickel might substitute for iron in a hypothetic oxygen sensor, switching a cell's metabolism to a state that mimics permanent hypoxia. A recently cloned Ni-inducible gene, Cap43, has been found to be induced by hypoxia through hypoxia-inducible transcription factor-1, as well as by Ni compounds. Results are presented from a study in which this phenomenon was investigated using mouse embryo fibroblasts and cells with hypoxia-inducible transcription factor-1 alpha knockout. All genes involved in glucose transport and glycolysis, which are known to be induced by hypoxia, were also induced by Ni. Other genes also induced by Ni displayed hypoxia-inducible transcription factor-independent regulation.

T1  - Formation of Reactive Nitrogen Species at Biologic Heme Centers: a Potential Mechanism of Nitric Oxide-Dependent Toxicity
AN  - 14646511; 10633851
AB  - The presence of 3-nitrotyrosine has been associated with a wide range of human and animal diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases, acute lung injury, and bacterial and viral infection. The presence of 3-nitrotyrosine is assumed to result from the action of peroxynitrite, which has been shown to react with heme peroxidases. Results are summarized from studies aimed at establishing the mechanisms responsible for nitration of phenols related to tyrosine and tryptophan derivatives by heme proteins under various conditions. The focus has been on two types of heme proteins: peroxidases, especially bovine lactoperoxidase and horseradish peroxidase, and myoglobin and hemoglobin. The research has suggested two competing mechanisms for the enzymatic and pseudoenzymatic biological nitration by heme proteins promoted by nitrate and hydrogen peroxide.

T1  - Oxidative DNA Adducts and DNAProtein Cross-Links Are the Major DNA Lesions Induced by Arsenite
AN  - 14646504; 10633860
AB  - Data are summarized from studies that have examined oxidative DNA adducts and DNAprotein cross-links induced by exposure to arsenite. The studies have shown that formamidopyrimidineDNA glycosylase and proteinase K markedly increased the number of DNA strand breaks in arsenite-treated cells. The findings suggest that arsenite induces DNA adducts rather than DNA strand breaks directly. Described are the induction of oxidized guanine products by arsenite via nitric oxide and/or reactive oxygen species and the induction of DNA damage by arsenite via hypochlorous acid.

T1  - Activation of Gene Expression by Metal-Responsive Signal Transduction Pathways
AN  - 14646486; 10633870
AB  - Metal-inducible metallothionein transcription is regulated by metal transcription factor-1 (MTF-1), which is an evolutionarily conserved protein that binds specifically to metal-responsive elements. A model is proposed in which the regulation of metallothionein transcription via the MTF-1/metal-responsive element interaction is controlled by multiple signal transduction cascades that affect MTF-1 phosphorylation. Results are presented from a study that showed that MTF-1 was phosphorylated on serine and tyrosine residues. The level of MTF-1 phosphorylation increased in response to metal exposure, and several kinase inhibitors blocked or attenuated metal-inducible metallothionein transcription, which support the model in which transcriptional activation via the MTF-1/metal-responsive element interaction is controlled by several signal transduction pathways that ultimately affect the level of MTF-1 phosphorylation.

T1  - Metabolic Pathways of Carcinogenic Chromium
AN  - 14646453; 10633856
AB  - Ultravioletvisible spectrum, electrospray mass spectrometry, electron paramagnetic resonance, and nuclear magnetic resonance were applied to study the products of hexavalent chromium reduction by glutathione, alone or in the presence of aspartate and/or glutamate. The results suggested that glutamate, aspartate, and glutathione compete with each other for Cr, with the possible simultaneous formation of many mono- and dinuclear species. The data suggested further that glutathione is not only a primary target for oxidation by Cr(VI), but also acts as an efficient ligand stabilizing pentavalent Cr in a dimeric bridged cluster, forming a new type of dinuclear cluster in the presence of aspartate or glutamate.

T1  - Enhanced Overexpression of an HIF-1/Hypoxia-Related Protein in Cancer Cells
AN  - 14645628; 10633865
AB  - The relationship of Cap43 gene induction by nickel and hypoxia to its overexpression in cancer cells was investigated. Most major cancers have been found to overexpress Cap43 protein, which may be due to the hypoxic conditions of the tumor cells or adjacent tissues that overexpress HIF-1 alpha , which induces Cap43. Analysis of a number of tumor and normal tissue sections revealed the presence of the Cap43 protein, but overexpression of Cap43 in tumor cells appeared to be a signature for the hypoxic state of cancer cells.

T1  - Fanconi Anemia Complementation Group A Cells Are Hypersensitive to Chromium(VI)-Induced Toxicity
AN  - 14645564; 10633864
AB  - Fanconi anemia cells are hypersensitive to DNA cross-linking agents, suggesting a general defect in the repair of DNA cross-links. Fanconi anemia complementation group A (FA-A) has been found to account for 6065% of Fanconi anemia patients. In this study, FA-A fibroblasts, which are specifically deficient in the repair of DNA interstrand cross-links, were exposed to hexavalent chromium, and toxicity was examined. Results showed that low doses of Cr(VI) produced a dramatic decrease in clonogenic survival, which suggested that terminal growth arrest, rather than apoptotic cell death, was the primary cell fate at low concentrations. At higher Cr(VI) concentrations, FA-A cells demonstrated a statistically signiicant increase in apoptosis. The hypersensitivity of the FA-A cells to Cr(VI)-induced growth inhibition and apoptosis was not the direct result of higher CrDNA binding or Cr(VI) uptake.

T1  - Reductive Activation with Cysteine Represents a Chromium(III)-Dependent Pathway in the Induction of Genotoxicity by Carcinogenic Chromium(VI)
AN  - 14645473; 10633855
AB  - The most important intracellular reducers of hexavalent chromium are ascorbate and nonprotein thiols such as glutathione and cysteine, which generate intermediate forms to finally yield thermodynamically stable trivalent Cr. The unstable Cr intermediates and radical species can potentially induce oxidation of DNA, leading to mutations and chromosomal damage. Results are presented from detailed studies of cysteine-based reactions in which direct determinations of DNA damage and the assessment of genotoxic consequences were performed. The results indicate that nonoxidative mechanisms involving Cr(III)DNA binding are responsible for the induction of genotoxicity during the reductive activation of Cr(VI) by cysteine. The absence of detectable oxidative DNA damage in Cr(VI)/cysteine reactions indicated that thiyl radicals and intermediate pentavalent and hexavalent Cr forms are relatively unreactive toward DNA.

T1  - Mercury-Induced Autoimmunity in Mice
AN  - 14643326; 10633882
AB  - The mechanisms in heavy-metal induction of autoimmunity are elucidated, and results are presented from an experiment in which mercury-induced autoimmunity was investigated in mice. Eight mouse strains were used, which allowed comparisons between the autoimmune response in H-2-congenic strains with different background genes, as well as between strains with different H-2 haployptes but identical background genes. The animals were exposed to mercuric chloride in drinking water for ten weeks, and the presence, pattern, and titer of serum antinuclear antibodies of the immunoglobulin G class were determined by indirect immunofluorescence. Sections of the left kidney were also examined, and serum immunoglobulin E concentrations were determined. Results indicated that haploytpes H-2t4 and H-2s conferred susceptibility to Hg-induced autoimmune response, while H-2t1 caused resistance. The data suggested that induction and development of antifibrillarin antibody may be modulated by Hg toxicokinetics, but non-H-2 genes may also be modulated by the response independent of kinetics. Following the low-level Hg exposure, autoimmunity developed gradually. Female mice appeared to respond at lower Hg doses than males.

T1  - Arsenate Reductases in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes
AN  - 14643284; 10633858
AB  - All organisms use enzymes that catalyze arsenate reduction to arsenite. These thiol-linked reductases are required to confer resistance to arsenate in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Here, the properties of ArsC, a prokaryotic arsenate reductase, and Acr2p, an eukaryotic arsenate reductase, are described in detail. Both reductases appear to share a common evolutionary lineage with phosphatases.

T1  - Brain Uptake, Retention, and Efflux of Aluminum and Manganese
AN  - 14643115; 10633849
AB  - Both aluminum and manganese are neurotoxins with the potential to contribute to neurodegenerative disorders, such as the dialysis encephalopathy syndrome, Alzheimer disease, and a parkinsonism-like syndrome. The sites and mechanisms of metal distribution into the brain are outlined, focusing on the choroid plexuses and the bloodbrain barrier. Results are presented from studies involving rats and cells derived from the bloodbrain barrier that have elucidated the distribution of Al and Mn into and out of the brain and the mechanisms mediating these processes. The results suggest that there are carriers at the bloodbrain barrier that mediate the uptake of the metals, and that there is a carrier-mediated mechanism to protect the brain from Al by effluxing it across the bloodbrain barrier into blood, but no such protective mechanism appears to be present for Mn.

T1  - Respiratory Carcinogenicity Assessment of Soluble Nickel Compounds
AN  - 14642455; 10633875
AB  - Epidemiologic data gleaned from the literature are utilized to examine two possible hypotheses regarding the carcinogenic potential of soluble nickel compounds. The hypotheses hold that soluble Ni compounds are either respiratory carcinogens with greater potency than any of the water-insoluble Ni compounds or are not complete carcinogens, resulting in chronic respiratory toxicity that can enhance the respiratory carcinogenicity associated with concurrent inhalation exposures to carcinogens. Animal data and results from in vitro studies are then examined in terms of their consistency with the possible hypotheses. Both the animal and in vitro data are found to be consistent with the latter hypothesis. The data show that inhalation of soluble Ni compounds does not result in sufficiently high bioavailable Ni at nuclear target sites to induce tumors.

T1  - Arsenite Cocarcinogenesis: an Animal Model Derived from Genetic Toxicology Studies
AN  - 14642376; 10633859
AB  - Based on the understanding of the genetic toxicology of arsenic, a new mouse model for As carcinogenesis has been developed that combines a nontoxic concentration of sodium arsenite in drinking water with a low dose of solar UV radiation. The molecular and genetic toxicology of low-level arsenite is outlined. Studies have shown that, in cells treated with arsenite and ionizing radiation, the p53-dependent increase in p21 expression, normally a block to cell cycle progression after DNA damage, is deficient, leading to faulty DNA repair. Model results suggest that the absence of normal p53 functioning and increased positive growth signaling in the presence of DNA damage contribute to defective DNA repair, accounting for the co-mutagenic effects of arsenite.

T1  - Molecular Biology of Deregulated Gene Expression in Transformed C3H/10T1/2 Mouse Embryo Cell Lines Induced by Specific Insoluble Carcinogenic Nickel Compounds
AN  - 14642239; 10633876
AB  - Transformed C3H/10T1/2 Cl 8 mouse embryo cells were exposed to nickel subsulfide, green nickel oxide, and nickel sulfide, and gene expression was determined and compared to that in nontransformed cells. The results showed that insoluble Ni compounds induced cytotoxicity, micronuclei, chromosomal aberrations, and morphological transformation in the cells. The data were used to propose an overall mechanistic model to show how Ni compounds induce morphological and neoplastic transformation. The model suggests that insoluble Ni compounds generate intracellular divalent Ni ions that induce oxygen radicals, which induce activating mutations in specific protooncogenes or protooncogene-controlled genes and inactivating mutations or deletions in tumor-suppressor or suppressor-like genes. Intracellular Ni(II) ions also cause chromosomal condensation and methylation of promoters of tumor-suppressor genes, inhibiting expression of the genes and genes downstream that they transcriptionally control.

T1  - The Prospective Role of Abnormal Methyl Metabolism in Cadmium Toxicity

AB  - Rats received either 25 mu g aflatoxin B sub(1)/d or control dimethylsulfoxide, 5 d/week, for three weeks and then were either maintained on a normal methyl-sufficient diet or on a methyl-deficient diet for seven or 24 weeks. Nuclear extracts were then isolated from livers, and DNA methyltransferase (MTase) activity was determined initially and after exposure to cadmium and zinc. The kinetics of inhibition by Cd and Zn of the methylation of hepatic DNA from methyl-sufficient rats was quantitatively similar, but the concentration of Cd causing a 50% inhibition of hepatic DNA methylation was three- to fourfold lower than the corresponding concentration of Zn. In the methyl-deficient rats, inhibition of methylation by homologous MTase of hepatic DNA by Zn was similar to that observed with methyl-sufficient extracts, but the effect of Cd was different, suggesting that the impairment of DNA methylation by Cd could involve more than one process.

AN  - 14642146; 10633857
AB  - Soluble potassium chromate and insoluble barium chromate were used to study the genotoxic effects of chromium in Chinese hamster G12 lung cells, which allowed the characterization of a mixed spectrum of genotoxic outcomes including genetic mutations, transgene deletions, and epigenetic gene silencing caused by aberrant DNA hypermethylation. Molecular analysis of chromate-induced mutants produced by soluble potassium chromate showed a mixture of deletions and epimutations, with the deletion versus methylation frequencies being similar to those induced by X-rays. For insoluble barium chromate, however, substantial evidence was found of gpt transgene deletions, but not of altered DNA methylation.

T1  - Transport of Toxic Metals by Molecular Mimicry
AN  - 14642069; 10633847
AB  - Several recent studies have identified some of the human genes responsible for controlling essential metal concentrations and have described how toxic metals interact with these gene products. An overview is provided of this research, noting transport via membrane recycling and the roles of transferrin, ceruloplasmin, and the defective gene products in Wilson disease and Menkes syndrome. Also described are: the transport of metal cations and inorganic metal complexes on metal-selective proteins, uptake on phosphate or sulfate transporters, human gene products involved in copper uptake, putative zinc efflux and uptake transporters, the release of iron and possibly other metals from cells into blood plasma by IREG1 and hephaestin proteins, uptake and efflux on membrane channels and pumps, and the transport of metal complexes on organic solute transporters.

T1  - Investigations of Methylmercury-Induced Alterations in Neurogenesis
AN  - 14641495; 10633879
AB  - Results are summarized from a series of experiments conducted to characterize the biochemical, cellular, and molecular effects of methylmercury (MeHg) on neuro-epithelial cell proliferation. Primary rat embryo central nervous system cells and in vitro assessments were used. Results show that in vitro MeHg exposure caused primary neuro-epithelial cell death that was both time- and concentration-dependent. Methylmercury exposure inhibited cell cycle transition at all tested concentrations. As the MeHg exposure concentration increased, the time to intracellular divalent cation mobilization decreased, and the relative contribution of intracellular divalent cations to the total indo-1 response increased. The data have been used to develop a biologically based doseresponse model of MeHg-mediated developmental neurotoxicity that incorporates MeHg-dependent rates to estimate the number of cells in the fetal midbrain over time based on transition probabilities for cell growth, death, and transformation.

T1  - Distinct Mechanisms of Oxidative DNA Damage Induced by Carcinogenic Nickel Subsulfide and Nickel Oxides
AN  - 14641449; 10633866
AB  - Electrochemical detector-coupled high-performance liquid chromatography was used to investigate the formation of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG), which is a characteristic oxidative DNA lesion, in cultured cells and lungs of rats treated with nickel compounds. DNA damage and site specificity of DNA cleavage induced by Ni compounds in the presence of hydrogen peroxide were assessed. Results showed that divalent Ni bound to DNA and reacted subsequently with H sub(2)O sub(2) to cause strong DNA damage. The data suggested that Ni(II) plus H sub(2)O sub(2) caused not only oxidation of thymine and cytosine residues, but also 8-OH-dG formation. Treatment of cultured HeLa cells with 10 mu g/ml nickel subsulfide induced large increases in 8-OH-dG, whereas nickel oxides and nickel sulfate did not. However, high concentrations of all Ni compounds induced increases in 8-OH-dG.

T1  - Molecular Mechanism of Copper Transport in Wilson Disease
AN  - 14641390; 10633848
AB  - Wilson disease is a disorder of copper metabolism whereby Cu is accumulated in liver, kidney, brain, and placenta due to a lack of biliary excretion of the metal. The Wilson disease gene, ATP7B, is described, which encodes a Cu-transporting P-type ATPase. A mechanism for Cu transport by the Wilson Cu-ATPase is proposed, involving the role of the N-terminal Cu-binding domain of the Wilson disease ATPase (WCBD). Copper binding to the WCBD is characterized, as are zinc binding to the WCBD, metal ion selectivity on the chimeric ATPase, the core elements within the transduction channel that may determine substrate specificity, and the phosphorylation/nucleotide-binding domain as it affects the mechanism of Cu transport by ATP7B.

T1  - Cell Signaling and Cytotoxicity by Peroxynitrite
AN  - 14640859; 10633872
AB  - While excess nitric oxide can be directly detrimental to target cells, most of its toxic effects appear to be mediated by peroxynitrite, the coupling product of NO and superoxides. Peroxynitrite can cause lipid peroxidation, protein nitration and nitrosylation, DNA damage, and oxidation of thiols. A brief assessment is provided of cell signaling and cytotoxicity by peroxynitrite, citing findings gleaned from the literature and from recent laboratory studies. The data suggest that downstream products of the phospholipase A sub(2) pathway may play a role in the lethal response evoked by peroxynitrite. Cell death induced by hydroperoxide also appears to be mediated by peroxynitrite because it is reduced markedly by NO synthase inhibitors as well as by NO and peroxynitrite scavengers. The direct versus indirect effects of peroxynitrite are discussed.

T1  - Cognitive Deficits and Changes in Gene Expression of NMDA Receptors After Prenatal Methylmercury Exposure
AN  - 14639785; 10633878
AB  - Pregnant SpragueDawley rats were administered a single dose of monomethylmercury by oral gavage on day 8 of gestation, and locomotion behavior was assessed and learning and memory tests were given to offspring. The observed cognitive dysfunctions were correlated with changes in the levels of expression of various N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor subtypes. No effects on locomotor behavior were noted, but the results suggested an impaired exploratory behavior in rats exposed to monomethylmercury in utero. The discrimination index, which is the difference between the exploration time of new and familiar objects, was reduced significantly in monomethylmercury-exposed offspring compared to controls. A worsening ability to learn was also observed in monomethylmercury-exposed rats. An increase in NMDA receptor-2B expression, related to the hippocampus of monomethylmercury-exposed rats, was evident, but no such increase was observed in the frontal cortex.

T1  - Molecular Mechanisms in Nickel Carcinogenesis: Modeling Ni(II) Binding Site in Histone H4
AN  - 14639765; 10633853
AB  - Inhalation is the main route for human exposure to nickel compounds, which have been correlated with respiratory cancers. The carcinogenic activity of Ni compounds is related to their water-solubility, as they dissolve in the mucus covering the airways, and crystalline Ni has shown the ability to enter cancer target cells by phagocytosis. The structure of the cell nucleus is outlined, focusing on the nucleosome, which is composed of an octameric assembly of proteins called the core histones that, along with the nuclesomes they form with DNA, constitute the eukaryotic chromatin. Studies have shown that Ni is a potential inhibitor of histone H4. Results are presented from analyses of the sequence of the N-terminal tail of the histone H4 in relation to divalent Ni and divalent copper binding. The results show that histidine-18 residue can be a primary binding site for Ni(II) ions in the H4 tail.

AB  - Oxidative DNA damage, which can be caused by the more carcinogenic transition metals, nickel and chromium, results in strand breaks, DNAprotein cross-links, and base lesions, all of which require the action of DNA repair pathways. Mistakes made by polymerases in the absence of DNA repair lead to mutagenesis. 8-Oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine is one of the major products formed by one-electron oxidation and singlet oxygen attack at guanine residues. The structure and potential mutagenicity of newly identified hydantoin products from guanosine and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine oxidation by transition metals are elucidated and discussed.

T1  - Predictive microbiology: providing a knowledge-based framework for change management
AN  - 18589090; 5463171
AB  - This contribution considers predictive microbiology in the context of the Food Micro 2002 theme, "Microbial adaptation to changing environments". To provide a reference point, the state of food microbiology knowledge in the mid-1970s is selected and from that time, the impact of social and demographic changes on microbial food safety is traced. A short chronology of the history of predictive microbiology provides context to discuss its relation to and interactions with hazard analysis critical control point (HACCP) and risk assessment. The need to take account of the implications of microbial adaptability and variable population responses is couched in terms of the dichotomy between classical versus quantal microbiology introduced by Bridson and Gould [Lett. Appl. Microbiol. 30 (2000) 95]. The role of population response patterns and models as guides to underlying physiological processes draws attention to the value of predictive models in development of novel methods of food preservation. It also draws attention to the paradox facing today's food industry that is required to balance the "clean, green" aspirations of consumers with the risk, to safety or shelf life, of removing traditional barriers to microbial development. This part of the discussion is dominated by consideration of models and responses that lead to stasis and inactivation of microbial populations. This highlights the consequence of change on predictive modelling where the need is now to develop interface and non-thermal death models to deal with pathogens that have low infective doses for general and/or susceptible populations in the context of minimal preservation treatments. The challenge is to demonstrate the validity of such models and to develop applications of benefit to the food industry and consumers as was achieved with growth models to predict shelf life and the hygienic equivalence of food processing operations.

T1  - Stable carbon isotope fractionation in the marine copepod Temora longicornis: unexpectedly low delta super(13)C value of faecal pellets
AN  - 18591741; 5508676
AB  - super(13)C fractionation effects in an experimental food chain were determined by performing a series of mesocosm experiments with the copepod Temora longicornis and using flagellates as food. The bulk copepods were enriched in super(13)C by 1.2 to 2.3 ppt and the CO sub(2) respired was enriched by 0.8 ppt, compared to the isotopic composition of the food. Faecal pellets, however, were strongly depleted in super(13)C by 4.3 to 11.3 ppt, in isotopic mass balance with the super(13)C enrichment of the copepod body and of the respired carbon dioxide. Compound-specific carbon isotope analyses indicated that solvent extractable sterols and alkenones were isotopically light in carbon in both the copepod body and in the faecal matter. These lipids reflected the isotopic nature of the consumed food, indicating that they are not fractionated in the copepod. The residual fraction of the faecal pellets (after extraction) showed the largest isotopic change, being depleted in super(13)C by about 16 ppt compared to the same fraction in the diet. Curie point pyrolysis analyses indicated that proteins were the major constituents of this residual material from both the copepods and their faecal pellets. When food sources of different isotopic composition were alternately supplied to the copepods, the faecal pellet residue showed a relatively slow turnover rate compared to the alkenones, which were completely egested by the copepods. A similarly slow turnover rate was observed in the residual material from copepods, suggesting that it must be proteins that are being fractionated by the copepod T. longicornis. The low delta super(13)C value of faecal pellets adds another variable to the stable carbon isotopic signature of particulate organic carbon in the pelagic environment.

T1  - A rapid response toxicity test based on the feeding rate of the tropical cladoceran Moinodaphnia macleayi.
AN  - 72777864; 12481851
AB  - Recent research has reported that the feeding rate of the cladoceran Daphnia magna (measured over 24 h) is a sensitive indicator of toxicity. Using a methodology similar to that used for D. magna, a feeding test for the Australian tropical cladoceran Moinodaphnia macleayi was developed and the sensitivity of the test was compared with the currently used reproduction test. The results of the study revealed that the feeding rate of M. macleayi was a more sensitive indicator of toxicity than reproduction for cadmium; a mean concentration of 1.4 microg/L caused significant inhibition of feeding (P < or = 0.05), while reproduction was significantly reduced at 3.1 microg/L (P < or = 0.05). No feeding inhibition was detected when M. macleayi were exposed to copper, despite significant mortality. The difference in feeding and reproductive responses of M. macleayi to cadmium and copper suggest differing modes of action for the two metals. The feeding test was validated on two samples of mine release water containing various metals. Results demonstrated that a cladoceran feeding test, performed over a 20-h period, was comparable in sensitivity to a reproduction test performed over a 5- to 6-day period.

T1  - Akt regulates growth by directly phosphorylating Tsc2.
AN  - 72048189; 12172554
AB  - The direct mechanism by which the serine/threonine kinase Akt (also known as protein kinase B (PKB)) regulates cell growth is unknown. Here, we report that Drosophila melanogaster Akt/PKB stimulates growth by phosphorylating the tuberous sclerosis complex 2 (Tsc2) tumour suppressor and inhibiting formation of a Tsc1-Tsc2 complex. We show that Akt/PKB directly phosphorylates Drosophila Tsc2 in vitro at the conserved residues, Ser 924 and Thr 1518. Mutation of these sites renders Tsc2 insensitive to Akt/PKB signalling, increasing the stability of the Tsc1-Tsc2 complex within the cell. Stimulating Akt/PKB signalling in vivo markedly increases cell growth/size, disrupts the Tsc1-Tsc2 complex and disturbs the distinct subcellular localization of Tsc1 and Tsc2. Furthermore, all Akt/PKB growth signals are blocked by expression of a Tsc2 mutant lacking Akt phosphorylation sites. Thus, Tsc2 seems to be the critical target of Akt in mediating growth signals for the insulin signalling pathway.

T1  - Hypoxia and persistent sodium current.
AN  - 72040421; 12202908
AB  - During prolonged depolarization of excitable cells, some voltage-activated, tetrodotoxin-sensitive sodium channels are resistant to inactivation and can continue to open for long periods of time, generating a "persistent" sodium current ( I(NaP)). The amplitude of I(NaP) is small [generally less than 1% of the peak amplitude of the transient sodium current ( I(NaT))], activates at potentials close to the resting membrane potential, and is more sensitive to Na channel blocking drugs than I(NaT). It is thought that persistent Na channels are generated by a change in gating of transient Na channels, possibly because of a change in phosphorylation or protein structure, e.g. loss of the inactivation gate. Drugs that block Na channels can prevent the increase in [Ca(2+)](i) in cardiac cells during hypoxia. Hypoxia increases the amplitude of I(NaP). Paradoxically, NO causes a similar increase in I(NaP) and the effects of both can be inhibited by reducing agents such as dithiothreitol and reduced glutathione. It is proposed that an increased inflow of Na(+) during hypoxia increases [Na(+)](i), which in turn reverses the Na/Ca exchanger so that [Ca(2+)](i) rises. An increase in I(NaP) and [Ca(2+)](i) could cause arrhythmias and irreversible cell damage.

T1  - Intrathecal magnesium prolongs fentanyl analgesia: a prospective, randomized, controlled trial.
AN  - 72033780; 12198056
AB  - Magnesium is a noncompetitive, N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist that does not effectively cross the blood-brain barrier when given IV. Intrathecal magnesium potentiates opioid antinociception in rats, and the safety of intrathecal magnesium has been demonstrated in animals. This is the first prospective human study evaluating whether intrathecal magnesium could prolong spinal opioid analgesia. Fifty-two patients requesting analgesia for labor were randomized to receive either intrathecal fentanyl 25 micro g plus saline or fentanyl 25 micro g plus magnesium sulfate 50 mg as part of a combined spinal-epidural technique. The duration of analgesia of the intrathecal drug combination was defined by the time of patient request for additional analgesia. There was significant prolongation in the median duration of analgesia (75 min) in the magnesium plus fentanyl group compared with the fentanyl alone group (60 min). There was no associated increase in adverse events in the group that received intrathecal magnesium. Larger doses of intrathecal magnesium were not studied in this group of patients because of the limitations on cephalad spread when hyperbaric solutions are injected in the sitting position. Our data indicate that intrathecal magnesium prolongs spinal opioid analgesia in humans and suggest that the availability of an intrathecal N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonist could be of clinical importance for pain management.
          Magnesium occurs naturally in the spinal cord and blocks the NMDA glutamate channel. In animal studies, intrathecal magnesium sulfate improves spinal morphine analgesia. For patients receiving spinal analgesia for labor, the addition of magnesium sulfate to the opioid fentanyl prolonged analgesia with no increase of side effects.

T1  - The Law: When Presidential Power Backfires: Clinton's Use of Clemency
AN  - 60615607; 200219950
AB  - Although President Bill Clinton possessed exclusive authority to exercise the power over pardons & clemencies, his use of that authority greatly damaged his presidency. By circumventing established procedures within the DOJ (as he was free to do), he simultaneously maximized the freedom to do what he wanted & maximized the risk of political & legal error. The consequences of his actions in the Marc Rich pardon are still being felt in the courts. A grand jury in New York is looking into the conduct of five attorneys who, over a period of two decades, gave assistance to Rich. Future presidents will look upon Clinton's understanding & use of the pardon power as something to avoid. 39 References. Adapted from the source document.

T1  - Persecution of Jehovah's Witnesses in Georgia Today
AN  - 60451771; 200309846
AB  - Reviews persecution of Jehovah's Witnesses in the former Soviet republic of Georgia. The organization has grown from one known individual in 1953 to c. 15,000 members in 2001. Because Georgia does not have a law on religion, nontraditional religious groups lack juridical status & are vulnerable to persecution & violence. Since late 1998, when parliamentarians led by Guram Sharadze embraced the topic of religious purity to protect Georgian Orthodoxy, the Jehovah's Witnesses &, to a lesser extent, other nontraditional religions have had to face increasing amounts of violent repression. Thus, ad-hoc violence against the Jehovah's Witnesses as propagated by Basil Mkalavishvili, a defrocked Orthodox priest, became more frequent & more intense. Whereas officials including President Edouard Shevardnadze publicly denounced these attacks, which usually involved destruction of literature &/or physical violence against Jehovah's Witnesses & their property, few efforts were made to prosecute the perpetrators. In addition, the police often refused to intervene during the assaults & were not punished for doing so. Different factors fueling & fighting intolerance are described, & it is suggested that Georgia has reached a turning-point in which it must either renounce all violence or risk being run by mobs. J.

T1  - Colored dissolved organic matter and dissolved organic carbon exclusion from lake ice: implications for irradiance transmission and carbon cycling
AN  - 18905840; 5509490
AB  - Thick ice cover is a feature of cold-temperate, polar, and alpine lakes and rivers throughout much of the year. Our observations from Canadian lakes and rivers across the latitudinal gradient 46-80 degree N show that their overlying ice contains low concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and colored solved organic matter (CDOM) relative to the underlying waters. The CDOM exclusion factor (water/ice) ranged from 1.4 to 114 and was typically greater than twice the exclusion factor for inorganic solutes. Application of synchronous fluorescence analysis to lake ice samples and experimentally frozen lakewater indicated that only less complex, lower molecular weight molecules were retained within the ice. Consistent with this analysis, DOC-specific absorption showed that the DOC in the ice was generally less colored than that in the underlying waters. The reduced CDOM absorption within the ice allowed relatively high ultraviolet (UV) transmission despite the elevated scattering within the ice and resulted in UV diffuse attenuation coefficients up to eight times lower in the ice than in the underlying waters. This relatively low attenuation by the ice would cause organisms trapped near the surface by inverse stratification to experience high UV exposure prior to ice breakup. The ice exclusion effect gives rise to a concentrated zone of CDOM and DOC that is likely to favor heterotrophic and mixotrophic processes and influence biogeochemical interactions.

T1  - Cloning and expression of the phosphotriesterase gene hocA from Pseudomonas monteilii C11
AN  - 18901794; 5606214
AB  - The cloning of a gene encoding the novel phosphotriesterase from Pseudomonas monteilii C11, which enabled it to use the organophosphate (OP) coroxon as its sole phosphorus source, is described. The gene, called hocA (hydrolysis of coroxon) consists of 501 bp and encodes a protein of 19 kDa. This protein had no sequence similarity to any proteins in the SWISS-PROT/GenBank databases. When a spectinomycin-resistance cassette was placed in this gene, phosphotriesterase activity was abolished and P. monteilii C11 could no longer grow with coroxon as the sole phosphorus source. Overexpression and purification of HocA as a maltose-binding protein fusion produced a protein having a broad substrate specificity across oxon and thion OPs. Michaelis-Menten kinetics were observed with the oxon OPs, but not with the thion OPs. End-product inhibition was observed for coroxon-hydrolytic activity. Increased expression of hocA was observed from an integrative hocA-lacZ fusion when cultures were grown in the absence of phosphate, suggesting that it might be part of the Pho regulon, but the phosphate-regulated promoter was not cloned in this study. This is believed to be the first study in which a gene required for an organism to grow with OP pesticides as a phosphorus source has been isolated.

T1  - Aequorivita gen. nov., a member of the family Flavobacteriaceae isolated from terrestrial and marine Antarctic habitats
AN  - 18839859; 5583183
AB  - Several strains isolated from Antarctic winter sea water, sea-ice algal assemblages and quartz stone subliths were found to belong to a novel 16S rDNA sequence cluster within the family Flavobacteriaceae (Cytophaga-Flavobacterium- Bacteroides division). The strains were Gram-negative, non-motile, psychrotolerant, strictly aerobic, chemoheterotrophic rod-shaped cells that contained orange or yellow carotenoid pigments and required yeast extract when grown in defined mineral-salts media. The requirement for sodium ions varied between strains. Results of DNA-DNA hybridization analysis were used to divide the strains into four distinct genospecies, which were differentiated by physiological and nutritional characteristics. The DNA G + C content of the strains was 33-39 mol%. The fatty acid profiles of representative strains were very similar, with major constituents including i15:1omega10c, a15:1omega10c, i15:0, a15:0, i16:1omega6c, i17:1omega5c and 3-OHi16:0. The novel genus Aequorivita gen. nov., which has widespread distribution in the Antarctic region, is proposed. The genus comprises four species: the type species Aequorivita antarctica sp. nov. (type strain SW49(T) = ACAM 640(T) = DSM 14231(T)), Aequorivita lipolytica sp. nov. (type strain Y10-2(T) = ACAM 641(T) = DSM 14236(T)), Aequorivita crocea sp. nov. (type strain Y12-2(T) = ACAM 642 (T) = DSM 14239(T)) and Aequorivita sublithincola sp. nov. (type strain 9-3(T) = ACAM 643(T) = DSM 14238(T)).

T1  - Product safety - are we managing the risks?
AN  - 18629772; 5514900
AB  - This paper is intended to raise risk management as a topic for discussion among product safety professionals and discuss one particular key element of understanding risk. Risk management is an essential part of good product safety management, whether at the policy level or the implementation stage, and is relevant to all those involved in the development and use of standards, including regulators and suppliers. The risk management process involves measuring the risks at the initial stage, by looking at consequence (possible injury) and likelihood (of that injury occurring) which then gives us the 'inherent risk.' We then seek ways to treat the risks. A second assessment of the risks is subsequently done to establish the extent to which the treatment will address the problem ('assessed risk'). In product safety, this means how dangerous is the product as it is and how effective will a measure be in reducing the risk. Communication is vital in this process. When standards are developed and policy adopted, the factors that are taken into consideration need to be properly documented. The rationales for decisions, i.e., what the hazard is and how it is treated by the product specification, should be recorded within the standard itself. In the absence of recorded reasons, assumptions are made and these may well be incorrect. This paper discusses this topic in some detail and provides illustrative examples.

T1  - Stable social aggregations in an Australian lizard, Egernia stokesii
AN  - 18587564; 5468322
AB  - Social groups in many animal species contain family members, and are maintained by parental care, and then tolerance of related individuals in the group. Lizards rarely show prolonged parental care, and rarely form stable social aggregations, although cohesive groups have been reported in the Australian skink genus, Egernia. A population of Egernia stokesii was surveyed for six seasons on Camel Hill, South Australia. At this site individuals occupied rock crevices for refuges on an isolated rocky outcrop of about 1.5 ha. The population was divided into 17 stable social groups, each containing 2-17 individual lizards. Surveyed juveniles took more than 5 years to reach mature size, and most juveniles and subadults remained in the social group of their parents for that period and longer. There were 2-8 permanent adult members of each group. Group members shared common crevice refuges, basked close together (and sometimes on top of each other) and defecated in common scat piles. There was low mortality after the first 2 years of life, and low dispersal either into or out of the population. Some individuals were "floaters" that did not belong to a social group. Over the study a number of these became established in groups. The social structure of these lizards resembles the family groups reported in many species of birds and mammals where group members help to raise the offspring of relatives. The low level of parental care in lizards suggests that the evolution of this form of social organisation in lizards has resulted from different processes than in other vertebrate taxa.

T1  - Identification of appropriate assessment criteria to measure older adults' driving performance in simulated driving
AN  - 18559420; 5523083
AB  - This study investigated a laboratory-based driving simulator and identified assessment criteria for its use as an off-road screening tool for older adult drivers. The driving performance of 53 volunteer older adults was assessed by the driving simulator and gauged by age-specific assessment criteria. The assessment criteria used in this study were cognitive functions required in making decisions based on past driving experience and ever-changing driving conditions. The Cronbach alpha confirmed internal consistency of the scales that comprised the measures of driving performance. Pearson coefficient showed some assessment criteria were significantly correlated with age of participants (-0.59 < r < 0.49). The multivariate analysis of variance revealed that there was an overall score difference in driving performance between two age groupings: senior drivers and advanced age senior drivers. The younger the age of the participants, the better they performed in driving as defined by the assessment criteria. The findings of this study do not deviate from the literature supporting the evidence that driving ability declines with age. It was established that if appropriate assessment criteria are chosen, driving simulators can differentiate between levels of older adults' driving skills.

T1  - New Variants of Vibrio cholerae O1 Biotype el Tor with Attributes of the Classical Biotype from Hospitalized Patients with Acute Diarrhea in Bangladesh
AN  - 18472487; 5439738
AB  - The sixth pandemic of cholera and, presumably, the earlier pandemics were caused by the classical biotype of Vibrio cholerae O1, which was progressively replaced by the el Tor biotype representing the seventh cholera pandemic. Although the classical biotype of V. cholerae O1 is extinct, even in southern Bangladesh, the last of the niches where this biotype prevailed, we have identified new varieties of V. cholerae O1, of the el Tor biotype with attributes of the classical biotype, from hospitalized patients with acute diarrhea in Bangladesh. Twenty-four strains of V. cholerae O1 isolated between 1991 and 1994 from hospitalized patients with acute diarrhea in Matlab, a rural area of Bangladesh, were examined for the phenotypic and genotypic traits that distinguish the two biotypes of V. cholerae O1. Standard reference strains of V. cholerae O1 belonging to the classical and el Tor biotypes were used as controls in all of the tests. The phenotypic traits commonly used to distinguish between the el Tor and classical biotypes, including polymyxin B sensitivity, chicken cell agglutination, type of tcpA and rstR genes, and restriction patterns of conserved rRNA genes (ribotypes), differentiated the 24 strains of toxigenic V. cholerae O1 into three types designated the Matlab types. Although all of the strains belonged to ribotypes that have been previously found among el Tor vibrios, type I strains had more traits of the classical biotype while type II and III strains appeared to be more like the el Tor biotype but had some classical biotype properties. These results suggest that, although the classical and el Tor biotypes have different lineages, there are possible naturally occurring genetic hybrids between the classical and el Tor biotypes that can cause cholera and thus provide new insight into the epidemiology of cholera in Bangladesh. Furthermore, the existence of such novel strains may have implications for the development of a cholera vaccine.

T1  - An overview of health assessment of rivers and streams in southwest Australia using diatoms.
AN  - 18458589; 5434717
AB  - A snapshot of health of the streams and rivers in the south-west of Australia has been obtained after two years of sampling and intensive data analysis. Secondary salinisation, eutrophication, and siltation were the major water quality problems of this region. Clearing of native vegetation, intense farming and urbanisation have been responsible for the deterioration in water quality. The relationship between water quality and diatom distribution was investigated by sampling 46 streams and rivers. The streams and rivers displayed different degrees of water quality; some pristine, some severely impacted and others in transition stages. Distinct assemblages of diatoms were found associated with sites differing in water quality. Habitat deterioration was associated with water quality degradation. A biomonitoring system based on diatom assemblages has been recommended as part of the management strategy of the river systems in the south-west of Australia.

T1  - Urban land use and periphytic diatom communities: a comparative study of three metropolitan streams in Perth, Western Australia.
AN  - 18457946; 5434720
AB  - A study of periphytic diatom communities in three streams in the Perth metropolitan area in Western Australia, was conducted over a period of four weeks in late autumn/early winter 1998. The highest species richness was found in the relatively pristine Churchman Brook exceeding the total species numbers of the industrially impacted Belmont stream and the agriculturally impacted Southern River. Typical diatom genera, characteristic of pristine sites, such as Eunotia, were only present in Churchman Brook. Distinctive differences in species composition were also noted between the Southern River (e.g. Bacillaria paxillifer, Melosira varians, Cyclotella meneghiniana, Navicula exigua) and Belmont Drain (e.g. Staurosira construens, Diadesmis confervacea, Achnanthidiu exigua). The study indicated that the differences in species composition between streams exceeded within-stream variations. Polluted streams attained climax community within five days in contrast to the pristine stream, which took 23 days.

AN  - 18457888; 5434719
AB  - Diatoms from the Kiewa River system in northeastern Victoria, Australia were sampled to represent a range of water quality conditions within the system. Multivariate analyses and diatom indices were compared as potential methods in the use of diatoms as biomonitors. Both methods identified `Alpine' sites as the most distinctive site group. The multivariate analyses further separated `Upper Hills' sites from `Lower Hills and Plains' although the diatom indices suggested that these two groups contained comparable water quality. Further information is required to determine whether discrepancies between the results of the multivariate analyses and the diatom indices are due to the diatom communities responding to impacts that were undetected by the physico-chemical analyses, or whether the indices need to be adapted for south-eastern Australia.

T1  - Transport of potentially toxic Pseudo-nitzschia diatom species via ballast water.
AN  - 18456949; 5434749
AB  - Viable diatom cells are universally present in ship ballast water. Thirty one diatom species were successfully cultured from seven Japanese woodchip cargo vessels arriving in Triabunna, Tasmania (Australia), after 17-20 day voyages without stopovers. Diatom genera cultured include Chaetoceros, Detonula, Ditylum, Leptocylindrus, Skeletonema, and Thalassiosira, which are known to produce resting spores, as well as a wide range of other taxa (notably small pennate diatoms, e.g. Amphora, Navicula, Nitzschia which must be able to survive the dark conditions of ballast tanks in some form of physiological resting stage. Furthermore, 71% of ships tested contained culturable Pseudo-nitzschia diatoms, including P. cuspidata, P. pungens and P. pseudodelicatissima. Simulated laboratory experiments confirmed the extended dark survival (9 wks) of Pseudo-nitzschia pungens and P. pseudodelicatissima, demonstrating the potential for global ballast water dispersal of the causative organisms of Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning (ASP). Ballast tank heat treatment of 1 hr at 35 degree C appears to be an effective strategy to combat ballast water transport of diatoms, while mid-ocean reballasting as currently practiced, is largely ineffective.

T1  - Physical structure of epishelf lakes of the southern Bunger Hills, East Antarctica
AN  - 17340610; 6237130
AB  - Epishelf lakes, positioned between ice-free areas and floating ice shelves or glaciers, are unusual tidal, but largely freshwater, environments found in both the Arctic and the Antarctic. The greatest concentration of these lakes is in the Bunger Hills, East Antarctica (66 degree S, 100 degree E). We present and discuss temperature and salinity profiles for five epishelf lakes from this region, most of which show unusual properties. White Smoke Lake is fresh and cold (<0.1 degree C) throughout; Lake Pol'anskogo has two basins, one fresh and cold, the other saline and warm; `Southern' Lake is cold and saline at depth; Transkriptsii Gulf has a deep, warm saline layer; and `Northern' Lake is relatively warm throughout. The structures of these lakes can be explained in terms of a simple model in which the isolated saline water evident in three of the lakes entered the basins through the connection to the marine waters during periods of reduced freshwater input. By dating these marine incursions, periods of reduced melt, presumably due to colder temperatures, can be determined.

AN  - 16138736; 5443076
AB  - Aim: The aim of this study was to isolate and characterize a bacterium capable of metabolizing endosulfan. Methods and Results: A endosulfan-degrading bacterium (strain ESD) was isolated from soil inoculum after repeated culture with the insecticide as the sole source of sulfur. Analysis of its 16S rRNA gene sequence, and morphological and physiological characteristics revealed it to be a new fast-growing Mycobacterium, closely related to other Mycobacterium species with xenobiotic-degrading capabilities. Degradation of endosulfan by strain ESD involved both oxidative and sulfur-separation reactions. Strain ESD did not degrade endosulfan when sulfite, sulphate or methionine were present in the medium along with the insecticide. Partial degradation occurred when the culture was grown, with endosulfan, in the presence of MOPS (3-(N-morpholino)propane sulphonic acid), DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide), cysteine or sulphonane and complete degradation occurred in the presence of gutathione. When both beta-endosulfan and low levels of sulphate were provided as the only sources of sulfur, biphasic exponential growth was observed with endosulfan metabolism being restricted to the latter phase of exponential growth. Conclusions: This study isolated a Mycobacterium strain (strain ESD) capable of metabolizing endosulfan by both oxidative and sulfur-separation reactions. The endosulfan-degrading reactions are a result of the sulfur-starvation response of this bacterium. Significance and Impact of the Study: This describes the isolation of a Mycobacterium strain capable of degrading the insecticide endosulfan. This bacterium is a valuable source of enzymes for use in enzymatic bioremediation of endosulfan residues.

T1  - Techniques for the use of diatoms in water quality assessment: how many valves?.
AN  - 1521392417; 5434723
AB  - A comparative study of epilithic diatom samples from the Kiewa River Catchment, using total valve counts of 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 was conducted. A count size of 100 valves was sufficient to detect community patterns using multivariate techniques and to determine the Trophic Diatom Index, however a count of 200 valves was necessary to ensure a counting efficiency of 80%. In order to characterise a site, it was important to count more than a single replicate per site, or to sample across a wide area within a site to form a composite sample.

T1  - Modelling plumes of overland flow from logging tracks
AN  - 16141002; 5453781
AB  - Most land-based forestry systems use extensive networks of unsealed tracks to access the timber resource. These tracks are normally drained by constructing cross-banks, or water bars, across the tracks immediately following logging. Cross-banks serve three functions in controlling sediment movement within forestry compartments: 1. they define the specific catchment area of the snig track (also known as skid trails) so that the overland flow does not develop sufficient energy to cause gullies, and sheet and rill erosion is reduced; 2. they induce some sediment deposition as flow velocity reduces at the cross-bank; 3. they redirect overland flow into the adjacent general harvesting area (GHA) so that further sediment deposition may take place. This paper describes a simple model that predicts the third of these functions in which the rate of runoff from the track is combined with spatial attributes of the track and stream network. Predictions of the extent of the overland flow plumes and the volume of water delivered to streams is probabilistically presented for a range of rainfall-event scenarios with rainfall intensity, time since logging and compartment layout as model inputs. Generic equations guiding the trade-off between intercross-bank length and flow path distance from cross-bank outlet to the stream network needed for infiltration of track runoff are derived.

T1  - Jackie Steals Home. Learning Page Lesson Plan.
AN  - 62225167; ED475845
AB  - In this lesson, students draw on their previous studies of American history and culture as they analyze primary sources from "Jackie Robinson and Other Baseball Highlights, 1860s-1960s" in the American Memory collection. A close reading of two documents relating to Jackie Robinson's breaking of the racial barrier in professional baseball leads to a deeper exploration of racism in the United States, both in and out of sports. Students will: analyze primary documents closely; research documents specific to the history of race relations in mid-20th century United States; and draw conclusions moving from the specific documents to the broader society and test them for validity. The lesson plan is suited to American history and American studies classes for grades 9 through 12, and should take two to three hours. A procedure contains: an overview; an introduction to primary sources; an analysis of Jackie Robinson's letter; and an analysis of Branch Rickey's speech. Contains resources used and student handouts. (PM)

AB  - Phagosomes containing the bacterial pathogen Legionella pneumophila are transported to the ER after macrophage internalization. To modulate phagosome transport, Legionella use a specialized secretion system that injects bacterial proteins into eukaryotic cells. This review will focus on recent studies that have identified bacterial proteins and host processes that play a concerted role in transporting Legionella to the ER.

T1  - Microphytobenthos contribution to nutrient-phytoplankton dynamics in a shallow coastal lagoon
AN  - 968174796; 16466763
AB  - Nutrient fluxes and primary production were examined in Lake Illawarra (New South Wales, Australia), a shallow (Z sub(mean)=1.9 m) coastal lagoon with a surface area of 35 km super(2), by intensive measurement of dissolved nutrients and oxygen profiles over a 22-h period. Rates of primary production and nutrient uptake were calculated for the microphytobenthos, seagrass beds, macroalgae, and pelagic phytoplankton. Although gross nutrient release rates to the water column and sediment pore waters were potentially high, primary production by microphytobenthos rapidly sequesters the re-mineralized nutrients so that net releases, averaged over times longer than a day, were low. Production in the water column was closely coupled with the relatively low sediment net nutrient release rates and detrital decomposition in the water column. Dissolved inorganic nitrogen and silica concentrations in the water column are drawn down at the beginning of the day. The system did not appear to be light limited so photosynthesis occurs as fast as the nutrients become available to the phytoplankton and microphytobenthos. We conjecture that microphytobenthos are the dominant primary producers and, as has been shown previously, that the nutrient uptake occurs in phase with the various stages of the diatom growth.

T1  - Role of the interfacial binding domain in the oxidative susceptibility of lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase.
AN  - 71926501; 11966470
AB  - We had previously shown that the cholesterol esterification activity of lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) is destroyed by oxidation, but still it retains the ability to hydrolyse water-soluble substrates. This suggested that the inactivation of the enzyme is not due to its catalytic function, but due to a loss of its hydrophobic binding. Since recent studies have shown that a tryptophan residue in the putative interfacial domain (Trp(61)) is critical for the activity, we determined the possible role of this residue in the oxidative susceptibility and substrate specificity of LCAT by site-directed mutagenesis. Deletion of Trp(61) resulted in a 56% loss of cholesterol esterification (LCAT) activity, but the phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) and the esterase activities of the enzyme were stimulated slightly. Replacing Trp(61) with another aromatic residue [Trp(61)-->Tyr (W61Y)] resulted in an increase in all activities (14-157%), whereas replacing it with an aliphatic residue [Trp(61)-->Gly (W61G)] caused a dramatic loss of LCAT (-90%) and PLA(2) (-82%) activities, but not the esterase activity (-5%). W61Y was the most sensitive to oxidation, whereas W61G was the most resistant, with respect to the LCAT and PLA(2) activities. However, the activities which do not involve interfacial binding, namely the esterase activity and the transesterification of short-chain phospholipids, were more resistant to oxidation in all LCATs, indicating a selective loss of the interfacial binding by oxidation. Furthermore, replacing the two cysteines (Cys(31) and Cys(184)) in the Trp(61) deletion mutant caused additional resistance of the enzyme to oxidizing agents, showing that both domains of the enzyme contribute independently to its oxidative susceptibility. Since the hydrolysis of truncated phospholipids, generated during the oxidation of low-density lipoproteins, does not require the interfacial-binding domain, our results suggest that LCAT may take part in the detoxification of these compounds even after the loss of its cholesterol esterification function.

T1  - Nurse Reinvestment Act. Public Law.
AN  - 62221470; ED468471
AB  - This document contains the text of the Nurse Reinvestment Act, which amends the Public Health Service Act to address the increasing shortage of registered nurses by instituting a series of policies to improve nurse recruitment and nurse retention. Title I details two initiatives to boost recruitment of nurses. The first initiative includes the development and broadcasting of public service announcements and grant-based funding of state and local public service announcements to advertise and promote the nursing profession, highlight the advantages and rewards of nursing, and encourage individuals to enter the nursing profession. The second initiative concerns revision of provisions of the National Nurse Service Corps related to items such as loan repayments, scholarships, eligibility requirements, reporting requirements, and funding. Title II, which presents policies designed to improve nurse retention, consists of provisions related to the following areas: (1) building career ladders and retaining quality nurses through nurse education, practice, and retention grants; (2) funding and developing comprehensive geriatric education; (3) establishing and operating a nurse faculty loan program to increase the number of qualified nursing faculty; and (4) requiring reports by the General Accounting Office to identify local variations in nursing shortages, hiring differences among certain private entities, and the impact of nursing scholarships.

T1  - Pollutants and asthma: role of air toxics.
AN  - 21259799; 11704134
AB  - Asthma is a disease characterized by intermittent bronchoconstriction due to increased airway reactivity to both allergic and nonallergic stimuli. Most asthma exacerbations that result in hospitalization are associated with viral upper respiratory tract infections. Such infections typically induce T-helper type 1 (T(H)1) responses in the airway, involving activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-Kappa B). However, a more recently appreciated cause of asthma exacerbation is exposure to pollutants, including ozone and various components of particulate matter (PM), including transition metals, diesel exhaust, and biologicals such as endotoxin. Although the role of air toxics in asthma pathogenesis remains incompletely examined, many components of PM that are active exacerbants of asthma are also prominent air toxics (metal ions and organic residues). These agents have been observed to activate NF-Kappa B. Reviewed in this article are the actions of specific air pollutants on airway inflammation in humans and potential common response pathways for ozone, PM, and several air toxics.

T1  - Environmental air toxics: role in asthma occurrence?
AN  - 21259504; 11704132
AB  - The National Urban Air Toxics Research Center (NUATRC) hosted its first scientific workshop in 1994 that focused on possible relationships between air toxics and asthma. From that meeting came recommendations for future research including a need for more complete individual personal exposure assessments so that determinations of personal exposures to pollutants could be made. In the spring of 2001, NUATRC held a second such workshop to review progress made in this area during the intervening 7 years. Peer-reviewed articles from the workshop are published in this issue of (italic)Environmental Health Perspectives Supplements(/italic). As in 1994, academic, government, and industry scientists participated. Dave Guinnup of the Environmental Protection Agency discussed the nature of air toxics, their definition, and the basis for federal regulation. George Leikauf from the University of Cincinnati reviewed the 1994 workshop and subsequent research in this field. Current research funded by NUATRC that is addressing individual personal exposure was presented by Clifford Weisel (Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey), Patrick Kinney (Columbia University) and Candis Claiborn (Washington State University). David Corry from Baylor College of Medicine highlighted new insights into asthma pathogenesis while Stephen Redd from the Centers for Disease Control presented an overview of asthma epidemiology as well as the societal costs of the disease. Mary White (Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry) discussed recent epidemiologic investigations by public health agencies into community concerns about asthma and hazardous air pollutants. David Peden (University of North Carolina) reviewed scientific studies into the links between asthma and air toxics as well as criteria air pollutants. In a session on occupational asthma, Lee Petsonk (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) discussed risk factors for work-related asthma, whereas Ralph Delfino (University of California, Irvine) addressed limitations of extrapolating from occupational asthma to asthma in the general population. These presentations were followed by panel discussions focusing on future research programs, both for NUATRC and similar research institutions. Recommendations for future research included improved assessments of personal exposure to air toxics as well as research focused on specific hazardous air pollutants. The latter recommendation was based on medical literature that suggests certain pollutants from the list of 188 air toxics are most likely to adversely affect respiratory health.

T1  - Responses to panic induction procedures in subjects with multiple chemical sensitivity/idiopathic environmental intolerance: understanding the relationship with panic disorder.
AN  - 21251150; 11702288
AB  - Idiopathic environmental intolerance (IEI), also known as multiple chemical sensitivity, is a clinical description for a cluster of symptoms of unknown etiology that have been attributed by patients to multiple environmental exposures when other medical explanations have been excluded. Because allergy has not been clearly demonstrated and current toxicological paradigms for exposure-symptom relationships do not readily accommodate IEI, psychogenic theories have been the focus of a number of investigations. A significantly higher lifetime prevalence of major depression, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and somatization disorder has been reported among patients with environmental illness compared with that in controls. Symptoms often include anxiety, lightheadedness, impaired mentation, poor coordination, breathlessness (without wheezing), tremor, and abdominal discomfort. Responses to intravenous sodium lactate challenge or single-breath inhalation of 35% carbon dioxide versus a similar breath inhalation of clean air have shown a greater frequency of panic responses in subjects with IEI than in control subjects, although such responses did not occur in all subjects. Preliminary genetic findings suggest an increased frequency of a common genotype with panic disorder patients. The panic responses in a significant proportion of IEI patients opens a therapeutic window of opportunity. Patients in whom panic responses may at least be a contributing factor to their symptoms might be responsive to intervention with psychotherapy to enable their desensitization or deconditioning of responses to odors and other triggers, and/or may be helped by anxiolytic medications, relaxation training, and counseling for stress management.

T1  - Contributions of societal and geographical environments to "chronic Lyme disease": the psychopathogenesis and aporology of a new "medically unexplained symptoms" syndrome.
AN  - 21250836; 11702286
AB  - Lyme disease is a relatively well-described infectious disease with multisystem manifestations. Because of confusion over conflicting reports, anxiety related to vulnerability to disease, and sensationalized and inaccurate lay media coverage, a new syndrome, "chronic Lyme disease," has become established. Chronic Lyme disease is the most recent in a continuing series of "medically unexplained symptoms" syndromes. These syndromes, such as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and multiple chemical sensitivity, meet the need for a societally and morally acceptable explanation for ill-defined symptoms in the absence of objective physical and laboratory findings. We describe factors involved in the psychopathogenesis of chronic Lyme disease and focus on the confusion and insecurity these patients feel, which gives rise to an inability to adequately formulate and articulate their health concerns and to deal adequately with their medical needs, a state of disorganization termed aporia.

T1  - Caring for medically unexplained physical symptoms after toxic environmental exposures: effects of contested causation.
AN  - 21249605; 11702287
AB  - Medically unexplained physical symptoms (MUPS) are persistent idiopathic symptoms that drive patients to seek medical care. MUPS syndromes include chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia syndrome, and multiple chemical sensitivities. When MUPS occur after an environmental exposure or injury, an adversarial social context that we call "contested causation" may ensue. Contested causation may occur publicly and involve media controversy, scientific disagreement, political debate, and legal struggles. This adversarial social context may diminish the effectiveness of the provider-patient relationship. Contested causation also may occur privately, when disagreement over the causes of MUPS takes place in the patient-provider context. These patient-provider disagreements over causation often occur because of the enigmatic nature of MUPS. We suggest that a context of contested causation may have serious negative effects on healthcare for individuals with MUPS. Context plays a larger role in MUPS care than it does for most medical care because of the uncertain nature of MUPS, the reliance of standard MUPS therapies on a potentially tenuous patient-provider partnership, and the clinical need to rely routinely on subjective MUPS assessments that often yield discordant patient and provider conclusions. Contested causation may erode patient-provider trust, test the provider's self-assurance and capacity to share power with the patient, and raise problematic issues of compensation, reparation, and blame. These issues may distract patients and providers from therapeutic goals. In occupational and military settings, the adverse impact of contested causation on the patient-provider partnership may diminish therapeutic effectiveness to a greater degree than it does in other medical settings. Contested causation therefore raises questions regarding generalizability of standard therapies for MUPS and related syndromes to these settings. Future research is needed to learn whether intuitively sensible and evidence-based MUPS therapies benefit occupational and military medical patients who are afforded care in the context of contested causation.

T1  - Populations and determinants of airborne fungi in large office buildings.
AN  - 21246477; 7699396
AB  - Bioaerosol concentrations in office environments and their roles in causing building-related symptoms have drawn much attention in recent years. Most bioaerosol studies have been cross-sectional. We conducted a longitudinal study to examine the characteristics of airborne fungal populations and correlations with other environmental parameters in office environments. We investigated four office buildings in Boston, Massachusetts, during 1 year beginning May 1997, recruiting 21 offices with open workstations. We conducted intensive bioaerosol sampling every 6 weeks resulting in 10 sets of measurement events at each workstation, and recorded relative humidity, temperature, and CO2 concentrations continuously. We used principal component analysis (PCA) to identify groups of culturable fungal taxa that covaried in air. Four major groupings (PCA factors) were derived where the fungal taxa in the same groupings shared similar ecological requirements. Total airborne fungal concentrations varied significantly by season (highest in summer, lowest in winter) and were positively correlated with relative humidity and negatively related to CO2 concentrations. The first and second PCA factors had similar correlations with environmental variables compared with total fungi. The results of this study provide essential information on the variability within airborne fungal populations in office environments over time. These data also provide background against which cross-sectional data can be compared to facilitate interpretation. More studies are needed to correlate airborne fungi and occupants' health, controlling for seasonal effects and other important environmental factors.

T1  - Metabolic disturbances in fish exposed to sodium pentachlorophenate (NaPCP) and 3,3',4,4',5-pentachlorobiphenyl (PCB126), individually or combined
AN  - 19411197; 6087094
AB  - The Swan River Estuary is the recipient of multiple urban and agricultural contaminants which have the potential to induce liver detoxication enzymes as well as altering the metabolism of aquatic organisms. To test if altered liver metabolism would influence liver detoxication capacities, pink snapper (Pagrus auratus) were i.p. injected with peanut oil (controls), or pentachlorobiphenyl #126 (PCB126), with sodium pentachlorophenate (NaPCP), or PCB126+NaPCP. Relative to controls, ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) activity was induced in the PCB126 and PCB126+NaPCP fish, but not in the NaPCP group. In the liver, cytochrome c oxidase (CCO) activity was enhanced by the treatments while citrate synthase (CS) activity remained unchanged and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity was increased in the NaPCP treatment only. The results suggest that liver CCO activity may be a suitable biomarker of effect following exposure to PCBs or phenolic compounds. In the white muscle, only the PCB126+NaPCP treatment enhanced CCO activity, with all other enzymatic activities remaining unchanged. It appears that the resilience to metabolic perturbations is greater for white muscle than for liver. Low serum sorbitol dehydrogenase (sSDH) activity and histopathology of the liver indicated no significant alteration of cellular structure, albeit the lipid droplet size was increased in the PCB126 and in the PCB126+NaPCP treatments. It is concluded that the hepatic metabolic changes correspond to histopathological observations, but an altered metabolic capacity do not influence the metabolism of xenobiotics by liver enzymes, as measured by EROD activity.

T1  - Measured and predicted changes in tree and stand water use following high-intensity thinning of an 8-year-old Eucalyptus nitens plantation
AN  - 18907164; 5443820
AB  - We investigated changes in the pattern of water use of an 8-year-old Eucalyptus nitens (Deane and Maiden) Maiden plantation soon after thinning. Sap flow sensors using heat pulse technology were deployed across three stands thinned to a final density of 100, 250 or 600 trees ha super(-1) plus an unthinned control (1250 trees ha super(-1)). Changes in the relationship between tree size and daily water use were measured for 4 to 7 months after thinning. Thinning had no effect on sapwood water content. The increase in tree water use as a result of thinning was driven largely by significant changes in the radial pattern of sap velocity through the sapwood. The use of a canopy fraction factor in the Penman-Monteith equation to account for discontinuous canopies showed promise as a simple and effective method of scaling the model to predict transpiration from thinned plantations.

T1  - Decline in epidemic of multidrug resistant Salmonella Typhi is not associated with increased incidence of antibiotic-susceptible strain in Bangladesh
AN  - 18634743; 5531439
AB  - Since 1987, multidrug resistant (MDR) strains of Salmonella Typhi, resistant simultaneously to ampicillin, chloramphenicol and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, have caused epidemics of severe typhoid fever in Asia and Africa. A retrospective analysis of blood culture results (1989-96) in a Diarrhoea Treatment Centre in Dhaka, Bangladesh detected MDR strains in 0.3% (8 of 2793) of samples in 1990. The isolation rate peaked to 3.2% (240 of 7501) in 1994 (P<0.01) and decreased to 1.8% (165 of 9348) in 1995 and further to 1.0% (82 of 8587) in 1996 (P<0.01 compared to 1994) indicating the emergence and decline of MDR typhoid epidemic. Ten of 15 MDR strains tested had a 176 kb conjugative R plasmid that mediates resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole to Escherichia coli K12. Unlike MDR strains, the isolation rate ([similar]3.3%) of susceptible S. Typhi remained remarkably unchanged during the study. The significant decrease in isolation of MDR strains suggests that cheaper and effective first-line antibiotics may re-emerge as drugs of choice for the treatment of typhoid fever in Bangladesh.

T1  - Change in Undisturbed Vegetation on the Coastal Slopes of Subantarctic Macquarie Island, 1980-1995
AN  - 18602123; 5508709
AB  - The vegetation of 30 undisturbed permanent quadrats on the steep coastal slopes of subantarctic Macquarie Island was recorded in 1980-81 and 1994-95, a period in which temperatures rose briefly then declined, precipitation increased and rabbit grazing pressure decreased. Previous investigators of the plant ecology of the island have suggested a successional sequence, in the absence of disturbance, towards total dominance of the two major plant species on the coastal slopes, the tall tussock-forming grass Poa foliosa and the megaherb Stilbocarpa polaris, with a concomitant reduction in the diversity of subordinate species. Our observations demonstrate a more complex reality. Dense tall tussock grassland became more open, resulting in an increase in quadrat species richness. The more open tussock grassland on the upper slopes became more dense, with a concomitant decrease in quadrat species richness. The large herb S. polaris changed little in its abundance over the period, perhaps reflecting a need for disturbance for its expansion. The opening of dense stands of P. foliosa may be part of a previously unrecorded endogenous successional process, while the closure of open stands of Poa could be a response to improved growth conditions, including relief from rabbit grazing and the relatively high temperatures in the initial years of monitoring, but may also be endogenous in origin.

T1  - Impact of the rosette crown weevil Trichosirocalus briesei on the growth and reproduction of Onopordum thistles
AN  - 18476876; 5445829
AB  - 1. Several European thistle species of the genus Onopordum have become naturalized in Australia and are considered serious pasture weeds, leading to a project aimed at their biological control. 2. The population structure of a potential control agent, the crown weevil Trichosirocalus briesei, a newly described member of the Trichosirocalus horridus species group, was studied under natural conditions on its Onopordum spp. host-plants in northern Spain. 3. Trichosirocalus briesei was found to be the most abundant of three species of crown-feeding insect utilizing these plants. Adults of this univoltine weevil began to lay eggs in mid-autumn and larval population sizes increased over winter until pupation in early spring. 4. The spatial distribution of the immobile larvae was not random, indicating that females were selective in their oviposition behaviour. Field data suggested that plants in dense patches were attacked less frequently, and larger rosettes were preferred for egg-laying. 5. A preliminary cage experiment indicated that feeding by T. briesei could damage Onopordum spp. thistles. A second experiment using plants in individual cages showed a clear relationship between the density of the weevils and the reduction in several growth parameters and seed production. At the highest densities, larval feeding could kill Onopordum rosettes before they produced flowering stems. 6. These results indicated that T. briesei has the potential to contribute to the biological control of Onopordum spp. thistles in Australia. Following host-specificity testing, the weevil was released in 1997.

T1  - Isolation of Shigella dysenteriae Type 1 and S. flexneri Strains from Surface Waters in Bangladesh: Comparative Molecular Analysis of Environmental Shigella Isolates versus Clinical Strains
AN  - 18453840; 5430515
AB  - Bacillary dysentery caused by Shigella species is a public health problem in developing countries including Bangladesh. Although, shigellae- contaminated food and drinks are often the source of the epidemic's spread, the possible presence of the pathogen and transmission of it through environmental waters have not been adequately examined. We analyzed surface waters collected in Dhaka, Bangladesh, for the presence of shigellae by a combination of PCR assays followed by concentration and culturing of PCR-positive samples. Analysis of 128 water samples by PCR assays for Shigella-specific virulence genes including ipaBCD, ipaH, and stx1 identified 14 (10.9%) samples which were positive for one or more of these virulence genes. Concentration of the PCR-positive samples by filtration followed by culturing identified live Shigella species in 11 of the 14 PCR-positive samples. Analysis of rRNA gene restriction patterns (ribotype) showed that the environmental isolates shared ribotypes with a collection of clinical isolates, but in contrast to the clinical isolates, 10 of the 11 environmental isolates were either negative or carried deletions in the plasmid-encoded invasion-associated genes ipaB, ipaC, and ipaD. However, all environmental Shigella isolates were positive for the chromosomal multicopy invasion-associated gene ipaH and all Shigella dysenteriae type 1 isolates were positive for the stx1 gene in addition to ipaH. This study demonstrated the presence of Shigella in the aquatic environment and dispersion of different virulence genes among these isolates which appear to constitute an environmental reservoir of Shigella- specific virulence genes. Since critical virulence genes in Shigella are carried by plasmids or mobile genetic elements, the environmental gene pool may contribute to an optimum combination of genes, causing the emergence of virulent Shigella strains which is facilitated in particular by close contact of the population with surface waters in Bangladesh.

T1  - The evolution of soldier reproduction in social thrips
AN  - 18447772; 5421696
AB  - We estimated the degree of reproductive differentiation between foundresses and soldiers in multiple populations of five species of haplodiploid Australian gall-forming thrips using microsatellite data, ovarian dissections, and census data. Microsatellite-based species estimates of average per capita reproductive output of soldiers relative to the foundresses ranged from 0.005 to 0.64, and dissection and census-based estimates ranged from 0.17 to 1.1. Mapping of these estimates onto a phylogeny showed that levels of soldier reproduction were apparently higher in three basal lineages than in two more derived lineages. We infer from this phylogenetic pattern that soldier morphology and behavior of thrips evolved in the presence of substantial levels of soldier reproduction. This pattern of evolutionary change is similar to that proposed for the origin of soldiers in aphids and termites, but it differs from the scenario proposed for the origin of workers in Hymenoptera, within which helping and strong reproductive division of labor apparently evolved before morphological differentiation. We suggest that this difference in evolutionary routes to eusociality between taxa with soldiers and taxa with foraging workers was driven by a weaker trade-off between helping and reproducing, and a greater ability of the helpers to withstand reproductive domination, in taxa with soldiers. This is the first study to analyze the social-evolutionary trajectories of reproductive, behavioral, and morphological differentiation in the context of a species-level phylogeny.

T1  - Exploration of Factors Linked with High Cervical Cancer Rates in Women from the Former Yugoslavia in Victoria, Australia
AN  - 17722240; 5562327
AB  - Objectives: The aim of the project was to identify the cervical screening rate and other factors that may be associated with high rates of cervical cancer in women from the former Yugoslavia compared to the general population in Victoria, Australia. Design: A cross-sectional survey was conducted by structured personal interviews of 42 Bosnian, 56 Croatian, 49 Macedonian, and 35 Serbian women, and 39 women who identified as Yugoslav or of mixed background. Self-report data were collected on Pap testing behaviour, estimated screening rate of each community, stage-based barriers to cervical screening, and women's theories about causes of cervical cancer within their community. Results: Women in this study had an acceptable screening rate, but barriers to cervical screening were similar to those of other groups. While Macedonian women believed more of their community had Pap tests than the other cultural groups, just under half were under-screened themselves. Smoking rates were very high for women in this study. The most common causes of cervical cancer suggested by women in the study were: a low screening rate, lifestyle stress, and chemicals. Conclusion: It is unlikely that the high cervical cancer rate in women from the former Yugoslavia is a result of under-screening, lifestyle stress, or chemicals. Smoking may well contribute to the cancer rate, however the most likely explanation is that cancers not previously detected in Yugoslavia are now being found, together with cervical abnormalities, within the systematic two yearly screening programme of PapScreen Victoria, in Australia.

AN  - 14639894; 10631653
AB  - In 1997, health and mental health interviews were conducted with mothers of young children evacuated to Kyiv, Ukraine, from the 30-km exclusion zone following the Chernobyl accident and with Kyiv controls. The assessment battery contained a chronic disease checklist, general appraisals about health status, and a somatization scale, and demographic variables included age, education, employment status, and perceived standard of living. Clinical risk factors were also considered, including body mass index, smoking status, and depression history. In addition, concerns about Chernobyl were addressed, including health issues, post-traumatic stress responses, behavioral changes, and general risk perceptions. For all measures, the evacuee mothers reported worse health than controls, with the differences most striking for the Chernobyl conditions. There were large and significant differences between the evacuees and controls in their perceptions about the legacy of Chernobyl, especially regarding health issues. In evacuees, receiving a Chernobyl-related medical diagnosis was associated significantly with lifetime depression and illness amplification. The findings confirmed previous results on the relationship of real or perceived environmental exposure to symptoms in other vulnerable populations.

T1  - Models of Unexplained Symptoms Associated with Occupational and Environmental Exposures
AN  - 14639841; 10631649
AB  - Over the past several years, a number of baffling occupational and environmental illnesses have been reported that appear to challenge the traditional medical model that makes a distinction between disease and nondisease and often between physically and psychologically based complaints. An alternative model is proposed, called the biopsychosocial model, for addressing these complaints, in which disease represents just one possible contributor among many other factors that help to determine illness or negative changes in well-being. Biopsychosocial models are transactional in nature in the sense that the various biological, psychological, and social factors serve to continuously reinforce and amplify one another. The application of the biopsychosocial approach is illustrated through an occupational health problem in the UK: the sheep dip problem. The experience shows that the biopsychosocial approach may help to eliminate the need for debates about whether an illness is real and whether it is caused by exposure to a particular agent, thereby allowing practitioners to address the various needs of the sufferers as identified by the multiple contributory factors involved.

T1  - Hazardous Air Pollutants and Asthma
AN  - 14639747; 10631637
AB  - An update is presented of a previous examination of the possible relationship between hazardous air pollutants and asthma, focusing on the current gaps in the toxicology literature. Examined primarily are the 33 hazardous air pollutants that pose the greatest potential health threat in urban areas, but additional members of the original list of 189 hazardous air pollutants that are still important to asthma are considered. The molecular basis of asthma, which is being studied extensively in many laboratories, is outlined, as is the importance of an increased susceptibility to lower doses of inhaled irritants by asthmatics. The criteria air pollutants with the strongest statistical association differ among epidemiologic studies, but PM sub(2.5) and sulfate have been implicated quite often. An exposure assessment is provided, noting hazardous air pollutant entry into and fate in the environment, threshold concentrations that induce asthma, threshold concentrations that can exacerbate pre-existing asthma, and estimates of indoor concentrations. A health effects assessment is also provided, looking at the relationship between criteria pollutants and mortality/morbidity, the relationship between environmental tobacco smoke, hazardous air pollutants, and asthma, the relationship between human exposure and asthma, estimates of the magnitude of asthmagens release, and attempts to design exposure guidelines. Future research priorities in this area are highlighted.

AN  - 14639563; 10628682
AB  - The US House Appropriations Committee's appropriations bill for USDA and related agencies contains total funding of $74.661 billion for FY2003, $355 million below the $74.306 billion provided in the US Senate Appropriations Committee bill. Both measures exceed the Bush Administration's FY2003 request of $74.062 billion. Both bills rejected an Administration proposal to eliminate funding for three ongoing watershed programs and increase funding over F2002 for food safety and animal and plant health inspection activities. Funds are also allocated in both bills to help protect production agriculture and the food supply from terrorist threats and to provide emergency watershed assistance to flooded areas.

AN  - 14638932; 10631657
AB  - Adverse effects from air pollutants may affect the upper airway as the target or trigger other adaptations indirectly. The upper airway is described as a target, noting the relationship between irritant rhinitis and other types of nonallergic rhinitis, as well as irritant-associated vocal cord dysfunction and chemically induced olfactory dysfunction. The upper airway is also described as a mediator of symptoms, focusing as illustration on odor-triggered asthma and odor-triggered panic attacks. The adverse impacts of upper airway dysfunction can be a frequent component of unexplained symptom complexes, such as dyspnea or shortness of breath.

T1  - Exposures to Multiple Air Toxics in New York City
AN  - 14638847; 10631639
AB  - The Toxic Exposure Assessment, a Columbia/Harvard (TEACH) study was designed to characterize levels of and factors influencing personal exposures to urban air toxics among high-school students living in inner-city neighborhoods of New York City, NY, and Los Angeles, CA. The design of the New York City phase of the TEACH study is described, which focused on 46 students from the A. Philip Randolph Academy in west-central Harlem. The fixed-site monitoring covered three consecutive 48-h periods each week. Described are the study communities, subject recruitment, the questionnaire administered to the subjects at the time of sampling, and air sampling and laboratory analysis. The sampling results are tabulated, showing the means and standard deviations of PM sub(2.5) absorbance and particle-associated elements for personal, home indoor, and home outdoor locations, as well as those for VOCs and aldehydes. The data show that personal, indoor, and outdoor median concentrations of most particle-associated elements were similar, suggesting the relevancy of ambient sources. For formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and several VOCs, however, indoor concentrations far exceeded outdoor levels and appeared to dominate personal exposures.

T1  - Medically Unexplained Physical Symptoms in Medical Practice: a Psychiatric Perspective
AN  - 14636126; 10631654
AB  - Syndromes characterized by clusters of somatic symptoms represent one of the most frustrating and intractable puzzles in primary and specialty medical care. In the majority of cases, no allopathic disease entity can be differentially diagnosed and unequivocally established as the principal determinant of a patient's presenting somatic complaints. The common features uniting the functional somatic syndromes as a class are discussed. Nosological issues and clinical assessment of unexplained symptoms are considered. In psychiatry, these syndromes are being classified as somatoform disorders in current taxonomies on the basis that defining symptoms remains essentially unexplained from a conventional medical perspective. Somatization refers to the manifestation of psychological distress as unexplained physical symptoms. Efforts to validate somatization as a categorical diagnosis are discussed, as are instruments available to study somatization across specialties.

T1  - Testing the Metals Hypothesis of Spokane, Washington
AN  - 14636018; 10631640
AB  - An extensive epidemiologic study is being conducted in Spokane, WA, in which the associations between health outcomes and specific constituents of particulate matter are being investigated. The specific aim is to test the hypothesis that health effects are associated with atmospheric particulate transition metal species. The overall study methods are described, and the findings to date are summarized. The study was initiated in 1995 by monitoring daily fine and coarse particle samples at a central location. Health data have also been collected since 1994, and health outcome measures include emergency department visits and admissions at the four urban hospitals for asthma and respiratory problems. The metals of interest in the particulate samples, measured via energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence and instrumental neutron activation analysis, are manganese, cadmium, nickel, lead, mercury, vanadium, titanium, zinc, iron, arsenic, cobalt, chromium, antimony, and selenium. Increased emergency department visits for asthma have been found to be associated with combustion products and air stagnation, and the visits have also been found to be associated significantly with fine particulate Zn, which is also associated with combustion products and stagnation. The data suggest that metals in the fine fraction, but not in the coarse fraction, will be associated with health outcomes.

T1  - Somatization in Survivors of Catastrophic Trauma: a Methodological Review
AN  - 14635644; 10631655
AB  - Somatization is a term applied to health-related symptoms without medically identifiable origins. The problem with trying to establish a diagnosis of somatization disorder is that the syndrome does not present in a straightforward manner, and the disorder is usually overlooked in both clinical and research settings. A brief review is presented of somatization in the disaster literature, which mostly addresses methodological issues. Areas for future research are identified.

T1  - A Status Report on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
AN  - 14634138; 10631661
AB  - The diagnostic criteria for chronic fatigue syndrome are fulfilled when a patient has at least six months of new-onset, medically unexplained fatigue accompanied by at least four of eight identified infectious, rheumatological, and neuropsychiatric symptoms. The illness occurs in more than 0.4% of the population, affecting females to a much greater extent than males. The infectious and immunologic factors theorized to pertain to chronic fatigue syndrome are outlined, as are the psychiatric and behavioral factors. Other theories are also discussed, including orthostatic intolerance, covert encephalopathy, and possible environmental causes such as chronic exposure to organophosphates.

T1  - Epidemiologic Evidence for Asthma and Exposure to Air Toxics: Linkages Between Occupational, Indoor, and Community Air Pollution Research
AN  - 14633987; 10631646
AB  - Acute asthma morbidity has been associated with specific regulated air pollutants in aggregate time series and in individual-level repeated measures studies, whereas the risk of asthma onset or chronic effects on asthma from ambient air pollution exposure has been identified less clearly in epidemiologic studies. A review is presented of the scientific literature on the causal role in asthma of a number of important air pollutants. Much of the focus is on PAHs, noting the sources of PAH exposures, the experimental evidence for PAHs as proinflammatory compounds, occupational evidence of respiratory effects of diesel exhaust, epidemiologic evidence for PAH-containing environmental tobacco smoke, and epidemiologic evidence for automobile and truck exhaust. Overall, the experimental evidence supports the biologic plausibility of a role for PAHs from fossil-fuel combustion products on the onset and exacerbation of asthma, but inconsistency is found in occupational studies of respiratory symptoms or lung function and diesel/gas exhaust exposures. Epidemiologic evidence is also summarized for the relationship of asthma and atopy in children to formaldehyde exposure, as well as experimental and epidemiologic evidence for the role of VOC mixtures in asthma.

T1  - Cytotoxicity of Fumonisin B sub(1), Diethylnitrosamine, and Catechol on the SNO Esophageal Cancer Cell Line
AN  - 14632973; 10631778
AB  - The human SNO esophageal cancer cell line was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of fumonisin B sub(1), diethylnitrosamine, and catechol. Cytotoxic effects were determined using the MTT assay, which is outlined. Minimal cytotoxicity was observed in the cells exposed to fumonisin B sub(1) over 48 h compared to control cells, with treated cells showing a 23% cell mortality after 48-h incubation with 34.64 mu M fumonisin B sub(1). The cells, however, were more susceptible to combined treatment with diethylnitrosamine and fumonisin B sub(1), as cell mortality increased to 37% compared to controls, while treatment with diethylnitrosamine alone caused only 9% cell mortality. Catechol was cytotoxic to the cells, producing 44% cell mortality, but no significant differences in cytotoxic activity were noted between treatment with fumonisin B sub(1) alone and fumonisin B sub(1) plus catechol.

T1  - Rapid Increases in the Steady-State Concentration of Reactive Oxygen Species in the Lungs and Heart After Particulate Air Pollution Inhalation
AN  - 14632869; 10631768
AB  - Pathogen-free male SpragueDawley rats were exposed via inhalation to concentrated ambient particles, and the ability of the particles to increase reactive oxygen species concentrations was determined. The chemiluminescence of the lung, heart, and liver was measured in situ. Results showed that inhalation of concentrated ambient particles increased the steady-state concentration of reactive oxygen species twofold in lung and heart. In situ chemiluminescence of the lung increased shortly after exposure to the particles and retuned to control values a few hours after removal from the exposure chamber. Short-term exposure to the particles up-regulated antioxidant activities, such as those of superoxide dismutase and catalase.

AB  - At the site of a kraft pulp mill located on the Swedish Baltic coast, sex ratios of embryos of the viviparous eelpout Zoarces viviparus were determined over 4 yr. Reference sites were also studied. The sex ratios of embryos in the vicinity of the mill were found to be male-biased in 1997, 1998, and 2000, but in 1999, no such bias was observed, as the mill shut down at a time then the embryos normally undergo gonadal differentiation. Clear coherence was found between the skewed sex ratios and pulp-mill effluent exposure.

T1  - Evidence That Ultrafine Titanium Dioxide Induces Micronuclei and Apoptosis in Syrian Hamster Embryo Fibroblasts
AN  - 14632766; 10631775
AB  - Syrian hamster embryo fibroblasts were isolated from 13-d-old embryos and exposed to different doses of ultrafine and fine titanium dioxide, and the formation of micronuclei and apoptosis induction were studied. The assay protocols are detailed. At ultrafine TiO sub(2) concentrations of 0.5, 1.0, 5.0, and 10.0 mu g/cm super(2) and at exposure periods ranging 1272 h, micronuclei formation was observed, as was the appearance of characteristic changes typical for apoptosis. Micronuclei formation increased significantly as the ultrafine TiO sub(2) concentration increased from 0.5 to 5.0 mu g/cm super(2), whereas fine TiO sub(2) did not induce significant alterations in the micronuclei formation rate. Analysis by transmission electron microscopy revealed typical compaction and marginalization of chromatin toward the nuclear periphery in the exposed cells.

T1  - Sexual Maturation in Relation to Polychlorinated Aromatic Hydrocarbons: Sharpe and Skakkebaek's Hypothesis Revisited
AN  - 14632570; 10631771
AB  - Adolescents living in two polluted suburbs of Antwerp, Belgium, and those living in a rural control area were used to assess the effects of moderate exposure to polychlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons on sexual maturation. Blood levels of PCB congeners 138, 153, and 180 were measured, along with dioxin-like compounds. The serum concentrations were related to pubertal stage, testicular volume, and sexual hormones. In boys, genital development and public hair growth were associated inversely with serum concentrations of the marker PCBs, while in girls, a lower stage of breast development was associated with higher serum concentrations of dioxin-like compounds. Testicular volume was significantly lower in the polluted areas, but pubertal development was not correlated significantly with any biomarker reflecting internal exposure to polychlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons.

T1  - Work-Related Asthma and Implications for the General Public
AN  - 14632382; 10631645
AB  - As the overall rise in asthma prevalence has occurred in the US over the past 20 yr, work-related asthma has also emerged as the most commonly reported occupational lung condition. Recent studies have implicated workplace exposures in an important proportion of cases of new-onset asthma among adults. Findings are summarized from a number of studies and reports from the US, Canada, and the UK that have examined the rise in work-related asthma. These studies have included population-based studies, workforce-based studies, and studies that have addressed preventive interventions. The findings show that exposureresponse relationships have been observed for both high-molecular-weight allergens and for low-molecular-weight chemical sensitizers.

T1  - Assessing Exposure to Air Toxics Relative to Asthma
AN  - 14632329; 10631638
AB  - While the ambient concentrations of many air pollutants have declined in urban areas of developed countries, the incidence of reported asthma has increased. Therefore, combined concentrations may need to be considered when evaluating asthma exacerbation, along with the amount of physical activity, and not just exposure to individual compounds. A review is presented of the magnitude of hazardous air pollutant exposures in different locations. The concepts of human exposure to air toxics are outlined, and the following areas are considered from an exposure standpoint: ambient air toxics, indoor air toxics, the duration of exposure, population-based exposures, and exposures to VOCs, particulate matter, and carbonyls. Selected data are presented from the Relationship of Indoor, Outdoor, and Personal Air study designed to evaluate the impact of ambient sources in urban settings on exposure. The data from Elizabeth, NJ, show that, although there is a major contribution to air toxics exposures from ambient emissions, as they penetrate into homes where people spend the majority of their time, other sources can also contribute, so exposure to each air toxic must be determined individually.

T1  - Hypersensitivity of Human Subjects to Environmental Electric and Magnetic Field Exposure: a Review of the Literature
AN  - 14631460; 10631651
AB  - An overview is presented of the scientific literature on the hypersensitivity of humans to environmental electric and magnetic fields. The problem is defined as a phenomenon where individuals experience adverse health effects while using or being in the vicinity of devices emanating electric and/or magnetic fields of extremely low frequency. Summaries are provided of descriptive epidemiologic studies involving occupational and population exposures, and etiologic epidemiologic studies that have attempted to assess the role of exposures to electromagnetic fields as well as other environmental factors. The literature in this area is not extensive, and no substantial grounds are found on which to build a framework for taking into account the alleged hypersensitivity to electric and magnetic fields syndrome.

T1  - Addressing Community Concerns About Asthma and Air Toxics
AN  - 14631347; 10631643
AB  - Local and state health departments are on the front lines to respond to public concerns about asthma and the effects of exposure to hazardous air pollutants. Some of the challenges these departments encounter when responding to such concerns are described. These include the need to investigate community reports of increased asthma prevalence, assessments of the plausibility of purported associations between asthma and specific toxic air pollutants or a combination, environmental exposure to occupational asthmagens, individual and combined indoor and outdoor exposures, air toxics odors as risk factors for asthma, and the need for more community-based investigations.

T1  - Low-Dose Pharmacokinetics and Oral Bioavailability of Dichloroacetate in Naive and GST-Depleted Rats
AN  - 14630699; 10631769
AB  - Dichloroacetate is a common disinfectant byproduct in drinking water. While the concentrations are generally low, the compound has been associated with a number of toxic effects at high exposure doses. In this study, the pharmacokinetics and oral bioavailability of dichloroacetate were determined in cohorts of naive and glutathione S-transferase-zeta (GST)-depleted rats using a range of doses down to 50 mu g/kg. Dichloroacetate is metabolized primarily in the liver, mediated through GST. Results showed that GST activity was depleted when the rats were exposed to 0.2 g/l dichloroacetate in drinking water for 7 d. Elimination of dichloroacetate was very rapid, however, although elimination was strongly dose-dependent in naive rats, with total body clearance declining with increasing dose. Oral bioavailability of dichloroacetate was significantly greater in GST-depleted animals than in naive ones. Pharmacokinetic parameter estimates and rate of in vitro metabolism of dichloroacetate were found to be similar in human and GST-depleted rat liver cytosol.

T1  - Temporal Trends of Organochlorine Concentrations in Umbilical Cord Blood of Newborns from the Lower North Shore of the St. Lawrence River (Quebec, Canada)
AN  - 14629771; 10631782
AB  - Since 1993, cord blood samples have been collected in the small, remote communities located on the lower north shore of the St. Lawrence River, PQ, Canada. The samples have been used to monitor organochlorine prenatal exposure and temporal trends. Results are presented from analyses of the data collected through 2000. The results show a steady decrease in the mean concentrations for all groups of contaminants between 1993 and 2000. When multiple regression was used to calculate the adjusted annual decreases, treating the year of birth as a continuous variable, the trends for PCBs, chlordanes, DDT/DDE, and hexachlorobenzene were strongly significant. The only exception was the trend of the chlordane concentrations in the Caucasian population. A significant correlation was found between n-3 fatty acids, used as a surrogate of long-term fish consumption, and organochlorine concentrations for natives, but not for Caucasians.

T1  - The Vomeronasal Organ and Chemical Sensitivity: A Hypothesis
AN  - 14629764; 10631658
AB  - In chemically sensitive subjects, symptoms are reported at exposure levels well below those associated with known toxicologic mechanisms. Current theories of chemical sensitivity are outlined briefly, noting that interactions in the nasal airway are an integral part of several of them. A novel potential mechanism involving the nasal airway is proposed that might be involved in the etiology of chemical sensitivity, namely, interactions between environmental chemicals and the vomeronasal organ, which is a bilateral, tubular structure that is located in the nose that has apparent sensory functions permitting various forms of chemical communication that may elicit innate reproductive and social behaviors as well as neuroendocrine changes. The notion of a present and functional vomeronasal organ in humans, however, remains controversial. Results are summarized from studies that have addressed the structure, prevalence, electrical activity, and function of the vomeronasal organ in adult humans. The data suggest that nasal exposures to low levels of certain natural or synthetic airborne chemicals may alter central nervous system activity and function, with resultant changes in behavior and physiology. It is postulated that changes in levels or temporal release patterns of a combination of systemic hormones mediated by vomeronasal organ-stimulated neuroendocrine changes could potentially account for or contributed to the diffuse symptomatology observed in subjects with chemical sensitivity.

T1  - Temporal Association of Children's Pesticide Exposure and Agricultural Spraying: Report of a Longitudinal Biological Monitoring Study
AN  - 14629712; 10631781
AB  - In an agricultural community in Washington State, organophosphorus pesticide exposure in children 25 yr of age was monitored over a 1-yr period. The temporal pattern of exposure was examined in relation to age, sex, residential proximity to orchards, and parental occupation using urinary dialkylphosphate metabolite concentrations as exposure biomarkers. Dimethyl dialkylphosphate concentrations were found to be higher and more variable that diethyl dialkylphosphate concentrations in the urine samples. Dimethyl dialkylphosphate concentrations in urine were elevated in June, July, and August and decreased during the fall and winter. Diethyl dialkylphosphate concentrations increased in the MarchApril spraying period and then decreased gradually. Sex influenced dialkylphosphate levels, with concentrations significantly higher in boys than in girls, but age was not a significant factor, nor were parental occupation or residential proximity to fields.

T1  - Evidence of Reproductive Endocrine Effects in Women with Occupational Fuel and Solvent Exposures
AN  - 14629634; 10631777
AB  - In a group of female US Air Force employees exposed occupationally to fuels and solvents, specific endocrine endpoints were monitored that are predictive of conceptive menstrual cycles as subclinical markers of female reproductive dysfunction. First morning urine samples were collected daily, and menstrual periods were ascertained from the participants' daily records of vaginal bleeding. Internal doses of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons from solvents and fuels were estimated in mixed-exhaled breath samples. Mean preovulatory luteinizing hormone levels were found to be significantly lower in participants with high breath C sub(6)C sub(16) and benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes levels

AB  - Male Swiss NCR mice were injected ip with 1 mmol/kg trivalent chromium chloride, and the animals were mated two weeks later. At ten weeks of age, the offspring were examined for serum levels of corticosterone, glucose, and insulin-like growth factor 1. Highly significant increases in average serum corticosterone and glucose were observed in the offspring of the Cr(III)-treated mice compared to controls. Consistent with downregulation of insulin-like growth factor binding protein 1 expression by insulin-like growth factor 1, a significant negative relationship was noted between serum insulin-like growth factor 1 and hepatic insulin-like growth factor binding protein 1 in selected male offspring of Cr-treated fathers.

T1  - Disease Transmission Models for Public Health Decision Making: Analysis of Epidemic and Endemic Conditions Caused by Waterborne Pathogens
AN  - 14628505; 10631773
AB  - The epidemiology of diseases caused by waterborne pathogens suggests that illness arises in two settings: outbreaks and endemic transmission. As the availability of data differs between the two cases, the epidemic and endemic conditions require different quantitative approaches. A brief overview is provided of waterborne transmission models, and two case studies are presented to illustrate the use of models in both outbreak and endemic settings. The outbreak setting is the Cryptosporidium outbreak in Milwaukee, WI, in March 1993, and the endemic condition involves simulated exposure to Giardia from swimming. The illustrations demonstrate that the use of disease transmission models to identify data gaps and to aid in decision-making provides an important link between science and policy while coping simultaneously with existing data gaps.

T1  - Environmental Tobacco Smoke Exposure and Pulmonary Function Among Adults in NHANES III: Impact on the General Population and Adults with Current Asthma
AN  - 14628446; 10631770
AB  - Data from the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III) were used to examine the cross-sectional relationship between serum cotinine, which is a biomarker of environmental tobacco smoke exposure, and pulmonary function in the general population of nonsmoking US adults and in nonsmoking adults with current asthma. Results showed that adults with and without asthma had similar prevalence and intensity of environmental tobacco smoke exposure, and most adults examined had detectable serum cotinine levels, indicating recent exposure. Self-reported environmental tobacco smoke exposure was related to serum cotinine level. Among nonsmoking women, environmental tobacco smoke exposure was associated with a moderate reduction in pulmonary function, while the reduction was greater in women with asthma. In men, however, no evidence was found that environmental tobacco smoke exposure was related to decreased pulmonary function among nonsmoking adults or those with asthma.

T1  - The Environmental History in Pediatric Practice: a Study of Pediatricians' Attitudes, Beliefs, and Practices
AN  - 14628039; 10631780
AB  - The attitudes, beliefs, and practices of pediatricians in Georgia regarding children's environmental health were surveyed, focusing on environmental history-taking. Fewer than one in five respondents reported having had any training in environmental history-taking, but there was a high level of interest in children's environmental health overall. There was also a high level of belief in the impact of environmental exposures on patients' health and a high level of interest in learning more about the field. In practice, high numbers of respondents reported routinely asking about cigarette smoking around a child, pets in the home, source of drinking water, lead, and housing.

T1  - Appropriations for FY2003: Energy and Water Development
AN  - 14637133; 10628683
AB  - The FY2003 Energy and Water Development appropriations bill includes funding for civil works projects by UASCE, USBR, DOE, and independent agencies. The Bush Administration requested $25.5 billion for these programs for FY2003 compared with $25.2 billion appropriated in FY2002. Key issues involving these appropriations programs include matching budget request amounts with ongoing USACE construction schedules and congressional priorities, funding for major water/ecosystem restoration initiatives such as that for the Florida Everglades, proposed higher funding for DOE's civilian nuclear waste management program, and general provisions concerning federal water projects operations on the Missouri River.

T1  - A simple, spreadsheet-based, food safety risk assessment tool
AN  - 18429655; 5409377
AB  - The development and use of a simple tool for food safety risk assessment is described. The tool is in spreadsheet software format and embodies established principles of food safety risk assessment, i.e., the combination of probability of exposure to a food-borne hazard, the magnitude of hazard in a food when present, and the probability and severity of outcomes that might arise from that level and frequency of exposure. The tool requires the user to select from qualitative statements and/or to provide quantitative data concerning factors that that will affect the food safety risk to a specific population, arising from a specific food product and specific hazard, during the steps from harvest to consumption. The spreadsheet converts the qualitative inputs into numerical values and combines them with the quantitative inputs in a series of mathematical and logical steps using standard spreadsheet functions. Those calculations are used to generate indices of the public health risk. Shortcomings of the approach are discussed, including the simplifications and assumptions inherent in the mathematical model, the inadequacy of data currently available, and the lack of consideration of variability and uncertainty in the inputs and outputs of the model. Possible improvements are suggested. The model underpinning the tool is a simplification of the harvest to consumption pathway, but the tool offers a quick and simple means of comparing food-borne risks from diverse products, and has utility for ranking and prioritising risks from diverse sources. It can be used to screen food-borne risks and identify those requiring more rigorous assessment. It also serves as an aid to structured problem solving and can help to focus attention on those factors in food production, processing, distribution and meal preparation that most affect food safety risk, and that may be the most appropriate targets for risk management strategies.

T1  - A semi-quantitative seafood safety risk assessment
AN  - 18429147; 5409378
AB  - As part of a semi-quantitative risk assessment of 10 seafood hazard/product combinations, a risk assessment tool was used to generate a Risk Ranking. The tool is in a spreadsheet software format and provides a risk estimate, which is scaled between 0 and 100, where 0 represents no risk and 100 represents all meals containing a lethal dose of the hazard. A full description of the tool is contained in Ross and Sumner. Based on their ranking, seafoods in Australia fell into three risk categories. Hazard/product pairs with ranking  48 included ciguatera from recreational fishing in susceptible areas (RR = 60), viruses in shellfish from contaminated waters (RR = 67) and algal biotoxins from uncontrolled waters in an algal event (RR = 72). There have been significant (> 100 cases) food poisoning incidents involving viruses and biotoxins in shellfish, while ciguatera poisoning is prevalent among coastal communities in Australia's warmer waters.

T1  - Centimetre-scale spatial structure of estuarine in vivo fluorescence profiles
AN  - 18460551; 5432502
AB  - The spatial complexity of phytoplankton distributions at large (metre to kilometre) scales has long been recognised. Here we present evidence of structure identified in the spatial distributions of phytoplankton measured at decimetre and centimetre scales. To characterise the temporal and spatial variation in the structure of phytoplankton distributions, fractal analysis was applied to vertical in vivo fluorescence profiles sampled at 25 cm and 5 cm sampling intervals. At the decimetre scale, mean fractal dimensions of in vivo fluorescence profiles were highly variable and not statistically distinct from those of complementary temperature and salinity profiles, suggestive of similar structuring processes for both biological and physical distributions. Sampling at the centimetre scale resolved increased structural complexity in in vivo fluorescence distributions, including the presence of multiple scaling regions, indicative of multiple structuring mechanism, together with the presence of distinct changes in the vertical structure of distributions for profiles separated by a horizontal distance of 7 cm. Shifts in centimetre-scale structural complexity were attributed to the behavioural reorganisation of cells due to a phototactic response to light and a gyrotactic or rheotactic response to localised shear. These results verify the importance of biological-physical structuring mechanisms down to the centimetre scale, where cell distributions and interactions hold significant ecological relevance.

The 2002 Farm Security and Rural Investment Act maintains the restriction on planting of fruits and vegetables by commodity program growers, increases funding for the Market Access Program, and establishes programs to help organic growers. The FY2002 agricultural appropriations bill passed in November 2001 included $75 million in market loss assistance for apple growers and $344 million for FDA food safety activities. While no relevant legislation has been proposed, alleged dumping of foreign fruit and vegetable commodities into the US market is an issue of concern to the produce sector.

T1  - Reforming the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act: Recommendations from the President's Commission on Excellence in Special Education. Hearing before the Committee on Education and the Workforce. House of Representatives, One Hundred Seventh Congress, Second Session.
AN  - 62225132; ED475869
AB  - This document presents the transcript of a hearing before the House Committee on Education and the Workforce concerning reforming the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), specifically recommendations from the President's Commission on Excellence in Special Education. Opening statements are provided by Representative John A.Boehner, Committee Chairman; Representative George Miller, Ranking Minority Member; Representative Michael N. Castle, Chairman of the Subcommittee on Education Reform; Representative Dale Kildee, Ranking Minority Member, Subcommittee on Education Reform. The major statement is by Terry Branstad, Chairman of the President's Commission on Excellence in Special Education. This testimony highlights three broad recommendations of the Commission: (1) IDEA must become more results-oriented, rather than being driven by process, litigation, regulation, and confrontation; (2) IDEA must embrace a model of prevention rather than failure, the current model focuses on waiting for a child to fail; and (3) IDEA must consider children with disabilities as general education children first, special education should not be treated as a separate cost system but must work together with general education. Appendices include more extensive written statements written statements by legislators and the presenter and additional documents submitted for the record. (DB)

T1  - Clean Air Act Issues in the 107th Congress
AN  - 14632903; 10628568
AB  - The major air quality issue confronting the 107th Congress has been whether state and federal regulations designed to protect air quality are exerting an adverse impact on energy production. A multi-pollutant bill for power plants was passed in the Senate in June 2002. A bill to ban methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) use, waive the oxygen content requirement, and provide additional funding for groundwater cleanup was also approved. Recent congressional efforts to implement provisions of the 1990 Clean Air Act include development of tighter emission standards for nonroad engines and for diesel engines and fuels.

T1  - Nuclear Waste Repository Siting: Expedited Procedures for Congressional Approval
AN  - 14630045; 10628564
AB  - In February 2002, a presidential recommendation was made for a nuclear waste repository at Yucca Mountain, NV, after which the state of Nevada exercised its authority under the 1982 Nuclear Waste Policy Act to disapprove the site. The site may be approved only if a joint resolution of repository siting approval becomes law after being passed by Congress during the first 90 d of continuous sessions after the disapproval. The Act establishes an expedited procedure for congressional consideration of the approval resolution, which is outlined. Relevant House and Senate floor actions are explained, and congressional power to alter statutory procedures is reviewed.

T1  - Risks to the aquatic ecosystem from the application of Metarhizium anisopliae for locust control in Australia.
AN  - 71954845; 12146174
AB  - Laboratory tests of Metarhizium anisopliae var acridum Driver & Milner, at a dose of 1.3 x 10(6) conidia ml-1, had no adverse effects on nymphs of mayfly, Ulmerophlebia sp or 8-week-old fry of the rainbow fish, Melanotaenia duboulayi Castelnau. This dose was toxic to the cladoceran, Ceriodaphnia dubia Richard, causing 100% mortality in 48 h. When this test was repeated at doses of up to 6.7 x 10(3) conidia ml-1, there was only 5% mortality after 192 h. Spraying of artificial water sources with a very high dose of the fungus as an aqueous spray resulted in 80-130 conidia ml-1 at 15 cm depth in the first 24 h after spraying. The conidia rapidly settled out and were absent from the top 15 cm layer of water after about 50 h. A similar experiment using the oil formulation as used in field control resulted in a 2- to 20-fold lower level of conidia in the water. Finally, sampling actual water sources in spray areas revealed a very low level of contamination of the water, with a maximum mean level of 29 conidia ml-1 in the first 24 h after treatment. Thus the level of conidia likely to enter water during control campaigns is a small fraction of that required to kill cladocerans, the only sensitive non-target organism tested. It is concluded that the biopesticide is very unlikely to pose any hazard to aquatic organisms.

T1  - A p34(cdc2) survival checkpoint in cancer.
AN  - 71944253; 12150824
AB  - A checkpoint surveying the entry into mitosis responds to defects in spindle microtubule assembly/stability. This has been used to trigger apoptosis in cancer cells, but how the spindle checkpoint couples to the cell survival machinery has remained elusive. Here, we report that microtubule stabilization engenders a survival pathway that depends on elevated activity of p34(cdc2) kinase and increased expression of the apoptosis inhibitor and mitotic regulator, survivin. Pharmacologic, genetic, or molecular ablation of p34(cdc2) kinase after microtubule stabilization resulted in massive apoptosis independent of p53, suppression of tumor growth, and indefinite survival without toxicity in mice. By ablating this survival checkpoint, inhibitors of p34(cdc2) kinase could safely improve the efficacy of microtubule-stabilizing agents used to treat common cancers.

T1  - Perverse Effects of Andean Counternarcotics Policy
AN  - 60646819; 200219556
AB  - Examines failures of US counter-narcotics policy in the Andes, which supplies 100% of the cocaine & about 60% of the heroin consumed in US markets. Anti-narcotics strategies include destroying growing fields & processing laboratories, seizing illegal drug shipments headed for the US, & breaking up drug trafficking organizations. The international drug control effort, which has cost the US over $30 billion since the early 1980s, has disrupted the cocaine trade but has not stemmed the flow of drugs. The threat to US security interests posed by the deteriorating political-military situation in Colombia is examined, & it is argued that new alternatives must be found to replace failed supply-side approaches to the war on drugs. Although suggestions are made for shifting to an interdiction-based strategy aimed at peasant producers & Colombia's outlaw groups, it is argued that actions within the US are likely to have more lasting effects. These should involve upgrading/expanding the entire system of border defenses, including air/sea patrols, immigration checks, search technology, & intelligence. J. Lindroth

AN  - 60585626; 200221166
AB  - The events of September 11, (2001) & subsequent investigations, suggest that some public information available on the Internet could aid terrorists in planning other attacks. This article provides examples of how federal agency officials have responded to the possibility that their Web sites provide potentially compromising information. The federal government has not yet issued a government-wide policy that addresses this specific contingency. However, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has issued an Internet content advisory, & the Attorney General has released a relevant policy statement on the Freedom of Information Act. The article concludes with suggestions for developing a government-wide Web site-specific policy. Adapted from the source document.

T1  - The Effects of September 11, 2001, Terrorist Attacks on Public and Private Information Infrastructures: A Preliminary Assessment of Lessons Learned
AN  - 60585552; 200221811
AB  - This article provides a preliminary assessment of the impact of the September 11,(2001) attacks on public & private information infrastructures. As the events of the day demonstrated, information technology promises to play a critical role in future homeland security initiatives. Over the past two decades, information technology has become increasingly integrated into the day-to-day operations of most organizations. The dependability & continuity of information infrastructures can be a determining factor of how well an organization will be able to respond to a catastrophic event. Although many lessons can be identified, they emphasize three general principles: the establishment & practice of comprehensive continuity & recovery plans, the decentralization of operations, & the development of system redundancies to eliminate single points of weakness.

T1  - Applicability of gasoline containing ethanol as Thailand's alternative fuel to curb toxic VOC pollutants from automobile emission
AN  - 27637083; 200301-31-0114 (CE); 200301-21-0103 (MT); 05446553 (EN)
AB  - Emission rates of benzene, toluene, m-xylene, formaldehyde and acetaldehyde were measured in a fleet of 16 in-use vehicles. The test was performed on a chassis dynamometer incorporated with Bangkok Driving Cycle test mode. Three different test fuels: unleaded gasoline, gasoline blended with 10% ethanol (E10) and gasoline blended with 15% ethanol (E15) were used to determine the different compositions of exhaust emissions from various vehicles. The effects of ethanol content fuels on emissions were tested by three types of vehicles: cars with no catalytic converter installation, cars with three-way catalytic converter and cars with dual-bed catalytic converter. The test result showed wide variations in the average emission rates with different mileages, fuel types and catalytic converters (benzene: 3.33-56.48 mg/km, toluene: 8.62-124.66 mg/km, m-xylene: 2.97-51.65 mg/km, formaldehyde: 20.82-477.57 mg/km and acetaldehyde: 9.46-219.86 mg/km). There was a modest reduction in emission rate of benzene, toluene and m-xylene in cars using E10 and E15 fuels. Use of ethanol fuels, however, leads to increased formaldehyde and acetaldehyde emission rates. Our analysis revealed that alternative fuels and technologies give significant reduction in toxic VOC pollutants from automobile emission - particularly car with dual-bed catalytic converter using E10 fuel.

T1  - Integration of strobilurins and other fungicides for the control of powdery mildew on grapes
AN  - 21105797; 11129460
AB  - The strobilurin fungicides Amistar (azoxystrobin) and Flint (trifloxystrobin) were evaluated in 1999/00 and 2000/01 in programs that included various combinations with Thiovit (sulfur) and Topas (penconazole) for the control of powdery mildew on grapes. In most experiments the application of 6 sprays per season that included Thiovit (3 g/L) followed by various combinations of Topas (0.125 mL/L), Amistar (0.5 g/L), Flint (0.15 g/L) and Thiovit (2 g/L) controlled powdery mildew. Although strobilurins were applied from flowering to after fruit set, the order in which various fungicides were applied had little influence on the level of powdery mildew control. In experiments where the bunch or leaf area diseased was 60% or higher in unsprayed plots, the severity was less than 5% where combinations of Thiovit and Topas with either Amistar or Flint were applied. In one experiment, 3 applications of either Legend (quinoxyfen) or Prosper (spiroxamine) following 2 applications of Thiovit also provided excellent control of powdery mildew. In programs where the application of Amistar and Flint were directly compared, Flint was the most effective fungicide for controlling powdery mildew. In the experiments where downy mildew also developed, Amistar was more effective than Flint in controlling this disease.

T1  - Reunion vigour: an experimental test of the mate guarding hypothesis in the monogamous sleepy lizard (Tiliqua rugosa)
AN  - 18749716; 5616501
AB  - The Australian sleepy lizard Tiliqua rugosa forms socially monogamous pair bonds for 6 to 8 weeks each spring before mating occurs. This behaviour could not be explained by any hypothesis involving males helping to rear their young, because pairs split up soon after mating, and males seem to have no contact with the offspring of their partners. Short monogamous associations in other lizard species are often interpreted as mate guarding by the male to assure paternity. The mate guarding hypothesis was tested by experimental separation of pairs at various times during the pairing season. Data from 73 trials indicated that males were more likely to return to females than vice versa, and that the tendency of males to return to females increased as the time of mating approached. Also, reunion was more likely in pairs that had a greater tendency to remain together during the season. These results are consistent with predictions that the monogamous relationship is a form of mate guarding by males. However, the incidence of females re-uniting with males, and the long duration of pair bonds before mating occurs are not predicted by a mate guarding hypothesis. There may be additional explanations for monogamous pairing in the sleepy lizard.

T1  - Is there a role for arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in production agriculture?
AN  - 18593231; 5461937
AB  - This review presents the point of view that arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) do not play a vital role in the nutrition and growth of plants in many production-orientated agricultural systems. Highly available soil P often limits AM colonisation and causes the C-costs to the host to outweigh any benefits from colonisation. Even when P availability is low and AM colonisation levels are high, as may occur in organic and biodynamic agricultural systems, AMF may not always contribute to plant growth for reasons not yet understood. AM fungal activity may also be greatly limited by soil fumigation, non-responsive plant varieties, or rotations based primarily on non-mycorrhizal crops or crops of low AM dependency. Thus, profitability may sometimes be enhanced by management practices, such as tillage and P-fertilisation, which limit AM colonisation. Manipulation of agricultural systems to favour AMF must occur only if there is clear evidence that AMF make a positive contribution to yield or are vital for maintenance of ecosystem health and sustainability. A crucial role for AMF in soil structural stability or in enhancing micronutrient concentrations in produce may be sufficient evidence and may eventually compel consideration of AMF responsiveness when breeding new crop varieties.

T1  - Tracer properties of eroded sediment and source material
AN  - 18566771; 5427712
AB  - This paper examines the conservativeness of tracers through the sediment generation process. This is done by comparing a selection of tracer properties of sediment eroded from large plots by simulated rainfall, with the corresponding properties of the source materials within the plots. Sediment was generated using three simulated rainfall events for each of five selected erosion source types in the Tarago catchment, Victoria, Australia. As there were particle size and organic content differences between the source material and the generated sediment, the measured tracer properties of the source material were corrected for these differences. The possible role of analytical errors in this investigation was also addressed. The geochemical property, concentration of Fe sub(2)O sub(3), was not conservative for any of the process sources investigated. Concentration of Al sub(2)O sub(3) was not conservative for three of the four process sources investigated, and the sum of molecular proportions of CaO**, Na sub(2)O, K sub(2)O and Al sub(2)O sub(3) was not conservative for two of the four process sources investigated. Mineral magnetic properties, IRM sub(850) and chi were also found to be not conservative, although this may be the result of the complex relationship between particle size and mineral magnetic properties not being adequately accommodated in this analysis. The radionuclide tracers, super(137)Cs and super(210)Pb sub(ex), were found to be conservative through the sediment generation process.

T1  - Phenotypic and Genotypic Characterization of Serologically Atypical Strains of Shigella flexneri Type 4 Isolated in Dhaka, Bangladesh
AN  - 18470823; 5430995
AB  - Twenty-one atypical Shigella flexneri type 4 strains isolated from patients attending the Dhaka treatment center of the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh, were extensively characterized and compared with S. flexneri serotypes 4a and 4b. The atypical strains agglutinated only with the type antigen factor 4 and did not agglutinate with any group factors, thereby excluding their characterization into serotype 4a or 4b. Of the 21 strains, 85.7% did not ferment mannitol but were able to ferment most of the sugars, whereas the remaining 14.3% strains fermented mannitol but were unable to ferment most of the sugars. Most of the strains were resistant to ampicillin, tetracycline, and trimethoprim-sulfomethoxazole. All of the strains harbored the 140-MDa plasmid, had the ipaH gene, had the sen gene (encoding Shigella enterotoxin 2), had the ability to bind Congo red, and were positive for keratoconjunctivitis in the guinea pig eye, attesting their invasive properties. All of the strains contained a middle-range plasmid (35 to 62 MDa) as well as a number of stable small plasmids, yielding mainly two plasmid profiles which were different from those of 4a and 4b strains. Conjugation and curing experiments suggested that the middle-range plasmids harbored a self-transferable multiple antibiotic resistance marker. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis analysis of all of the tested strains yielded two types with numerous subtypes, whereas ribotyping yielded only two types which were completely different from those of types 4a and 4b. This study concluded that two different clones of atypical S. flexneri type 4 exist and strongly suggests that these are new subserotypes of S. flexneri that await further serological classification.

T1  - Identification of an opd (Organophosphate Degradation) Gene in an Agrobacterium Isolate
AN  - 18456163; 5430346
AB  - We isolated a bacterial strain, Agrobacterium radiobacter P230, which can hydrolyze a wide range of organophosphate (OP) insecticides. A gene encoding a protein involved in OP hydrolysis was cloned from A. radiobacter P230 and sequenced. This gene (called opdA) had sequence similarity to opd, a gene previously shown to encode an OP-hydrolyzing enzyme in Flavobacterium sp. strain ATCC 27551 and Brevundimonas diminuta MG. Insertional mutation of the opdA gene produced a strain lacking the ability to hydrolyze OPs, suggesting that this is the only gene encoding an OP-hydrolyzing enzyme in A. radiobacter P230. The OPH and OpdA proteins, encoded by opd and opdA, respectively, were overexpressed and purified as maltose-binding proteins, and the maltose-binding protein moiety was cleaved and removed. Neither protein was able to hydrolyze the aliphatic OP malathion. The kinetics of the two proteins for diethyl OPs were comparable. For dimethyl OPs, OpdA had a higher k sub(cat) than OPH. It was also capable of hydrolyzing the dimethyl OPs phosmet and fenthion, which were not hydrolyzed at detectable levels by OPH.

T1  - Local Adaptation In The Linum marginale-Melampsora lini Host-Pathogen Interaction
AN  - 18447594; 5419346
AB  - The potential for local adaptation between pathogens and their hosts has generated strong theoretical and empirical interest with evidence both for and against local adaptation reported for a range of systems. We use the Linum marginale-Melampsora lini plant-pathogen system and a hierarchical spatial structure to investigate patterns of local adaptation within a metapopulation characterised by epidemic dynamics and frequent extinction of pathogen populations. Based on large sample sizes and comprehensive cross-inoculation trials, our analyses demonstrate strong local adaptation by Melampsora to its host populations, with this effect being greatest at regional scales, as predicted from the broader spatial scales at which M. lini disperses relative to L. marginale. However, there was no consistent trend for more distant pathogen populations to perform more poorly. Our results further show how the coevolutionary interaction between hosts and pathogens can be influenced by local structure such that resistant hosts select for generally virulent pathogens, while susceptible hosts select for more avirulent pathogens. Empirically, local adaptation has generally been tested in two contrasting ways: (1) pathogen performance on sympatric versus allopatric hosts; and (2) sympatric versus allopatric pathogens on a given host population. In situations where no host population is more resistant or susceptible than others when averaged across pathogen populations (and likewise, no pathogen population is more virulent or avirulent than others), results from these tests should generally be congruent. We argue that this is unlikely to be the case in the metapopulation situations that predominate in natural host-pathogen interactions, thus requiring tests that control simultaneously for variation in plant and pathogen populations.

T1  - Three mass strandings of sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) in southern Australian waters
AN  - 18439574; 5420917
AB  - One hundred and fifteen sperm whales (97 female, 15 male, 3 unknown sex) were involved in three mass stranding events during the month of February 1998 along the west and northwest coastlines of Tasmania, Australia. Sixty-six of these whales stranded at Ocean Beach, Strahan; 35 at Greens Beach, Marrawah; and 11 at Black River Beach, Stanley. The remaining whales stranded singly along the coastline. Three mass strandings of this species in such close temporal proximity have not been reported in this area before, and this is the first time that data have been comprehensively collected from complete or near-complete groups of sperm whales from Tasmanian waters. Adult females dominated the three stranding groups. Total lengths ranged from 417 to 1,200 cm and ages ranged from 0.75 to 64 yr. Four females were lactating and four fetuses were found amongst the groups. Stomach contents were dominated by pelagic cephalopods.

T1  - Breeding system, genetic diversity and clonal structure in the subalpine forb Rutidosis leiolepis F. Muell. (Asteraceae)
AN  - 18419005; 5402565
AB  - Genetic markers, controlled pollinations and chromosome analysis were used to examine the breeding system, clonal structure, genetic diversity and cytological complexity of populations of the endangered sub-alpine forb Rutidosis leiolepis. Results show that R. leiolepis: (1) has a strong sporophytic self-incompatibility system; (2) exhibits significant clonality and that the importance of vegetative reproduction increases at higher altitudes; (3) is genetically diverse, but that variation within populations decreases and differentiation among populations increases with altitude; and (4) is diploid with 2n = 22 throughout its geographic range. Based on these results, low altitude populations around Cooma and Happy Valley should be made priority areas for in situ conservation in the Species Recovery Plan currently being developed by the New South Wales National Parks and Wildlife Service because they exhibit the most sexual reproduction and highest levels of genetic variation within the species. They may also be demographically more viable in the long term, having larger effective population sizes and less likelihood of mate limitation due to low S allele richness than high altitude populations. Sampling strategies for ex situ conservation should vary from large collections within populations at low altitudes to smaller collections spread across populations at higher altitudes where more of the genetic diversity is partitioned among sites. This should give maximum representation of the species' gene pool for minimum sampling effort.

T1  - Improved detection of polyunsaturated fatty acids as phenacyl esters using liquid chromatography-ion trap mass spectrometry
AN  - 18382496; 5370922
AB  - The fatty acid composition of Shewanella pealeana was determined by the analysis of fatty acid methyl esters via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and fatty acid 2-oxo-phenylethyl esters via high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) combined with ultra violet (UV) detection. There was good agreement between the percentage composition of components determined by GC-MS and LC-UV analyses. However, LC-MS analysis using Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Ionization (APCI) demonstrated dramatically enhanced detection of unsaturated fatty acid 2-oxo-phenylethyl esters. The degree of enhancement was proportional to the degree of unsaturation. Tests with a pure polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) standard gave an absolute detection limit in full scan mode of 200 pg. In samples, the selectivity of MS over UV gave a significantly lower detection limit due to lack of chemical interferences. In 'Selected Reaction Monitoring' (SRM) mode, the detection limit was 5 pg. This was essentially independent of whether the sample is a standard or complex mixture of fatty acids. Tandem mass spectrometry was used to support structural information and to enhance the ability to target specific fatty acids. Several PUFAs which were not evident from GC-MS analysis were detected and identified by APCI LC-MS, including some rare or novel PUFAs from S. pealeana and a menhaden oil standard. Detailed analysis of bacterial fatty acid composition by either GC-MS or APCI LC-MS is highly preferable to analysis systems based solely on retention time identification.

T1  - Isolation of novel rice (Oryza sativa L.) multiple stress responsive MAP kinase gene, OsMSRMK2, whose mRNA accumulates rapidly in response to environmental cues.
AN  - 71838499; 12074577
AB  - In search for components of MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) cascades in rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Nipponbare), we identified a single copy gene called OsMSRMK2 from jasmonic acid (JA) treated rice seedling leaf cDNA library. This gene has a conserved protein kinase domain, including a MAPK family signature, and encodes a 369 amino acid polypeptide with a predicted molecular mass of 42995.43 and a pI of 5.48. OsMSRMK2 did not show constitutive expression in leaves and was induced within 15 min in response to wounding by cut. Using in vitro system, we show that the expression of OsMSRMK2 mRNA was potently enhanced within 15 min by signalling molecules, protein phosphatase inhibitors, ultraviolet irradiation, fungal elicitor, heavy metals, high salt and sucrose, and drought. OsMSRMK2 expression was further modulated by co-application of JA, salicylic acid, and ethylene and required de novo synthesized protein factor(s) in its transient regulation. Moreover, high (37 degrees C) and low temperatures (12 degrees C) and environmental pollutants-ozone and sulfur dioxide-differentially regulate the OsMSRMK2 mRNA accumulation in leaves of intact plants. Present results demonstrating dramatic transcriptional and transient regulation of the OsMSRMK2 expression by diverse biotic/abiotic stresses, a first report for any rice (or plant) MAPK to date, suggest a role for OsMSRMK2 in rice defense/stress response pathways.

T1  - Parameterisation of 3-PG for plantation grown Eucalyptus globulus
AN  - 18444532; 5422787
AB  - A set of parameter values for the forest growth model 3-PG was determined. These permit the modelling of the time-course of growth and development of even-aged, intensively-managed, fertilised stands of Eucalyptus globulus. The parameters were determined by fitting output from 3-PG to observed stem biomass data (i.e. total above-ground woody biomass) and canopy leaf area index (LAI). To fit these data, it was necessary to modify 3-PG by making specific leaf area and the fraction of stem biomass in branch and bark explicitly age-dependent, and to include effects of temperature on canopy quantum efficiency. With these parameter values, 3-PG gave a good description of growth at seven of nine disparate sites in Tasmania and Western Australia. A partial explanation for its failure at one site in Western Australia is that this site was subject to a prolonged drought not reflected in the long-term mean climatic data used in this study. At the other, a high altitude site in Tasmania, 3-PG predicted significant growth although extensive frost damage had prevented establishment of a viable canopy. The model was also applied to non-fertilised stands in northern Tasmania for which only basic growth and site data were available. 3-PG adequately predicted the observed peak MAI of the better sites, but over-estimated peak MAI at poor or high-altitude sites. The following conclusions are drawn: 3-PG can provide a good simulation of future growth of intensively-managed, fertilised stands of E. globulus if the model is initialised with observed biomass data at some age around or following canopy closure. If the model is initialised with typical seedling biomass at planting, 3-PG adequately predicts stem growth rate but not canopy LAI. Further development of 3-PG should take into account possible environmental effects on litterfall, the effects of partial canopy closure during early canopy development, and the prediction of mortality prior to the onset of self-thinning.

T1  - Safeguarding the Nation's Drinking Water: EPA and Congressional Actions
AN  - 14639430; 10628684
AB  - The events of September 11, 2001, raised concerns about the security of US drinking water supplies and their vulnerability to attack. Issues include the readiness of water utilities to prevent and respond to attacks on water systems, steps that can be taken to improve preparedness and response capabilities, and availability of resources to help utilities enhance drinking water security. In the emergency supplemental appropriations for FY2002, Congress provided EPA with $175.6 million for counter-terrorism activities, including enhancing drinking water security. Congress also approved legislation which includes funding for water utilities to assess their vulnerability to terrorist attack and prepare emergency response plans.

T1  - Communication, information and well-being for Australians with physical disabilities.
AN  - 85356153; pmid-12097220
AB  - This paper is a literature review, the purpose of which was to examine the legislative framework and the Australian Government Information Policy and how this has impacted on virtual communication and the well-being of Australians with disabilities.This has been a systematic review of current Australian literature that considers especially how communication and information can contribute positively towards connecting people with disabilities with other people during and post-rehabilitation.The results of this systematic literature review has been encouraging in that Australians with disabilities are being taken account of in the planning processes and evaluation of communications technologies.The paper also deals with how these interactive telecommunications may play an important role by assisting persons with disabilities in dealing with the loss of a sense of control over one's destiny, which is often prevalent during the acute phase of injury in persons with disabilities.

T1  - 1900 America: Historical Voices, Poetic Visions. Learning Page Lesson Plan.
AN  - 62204723; ED476529
AB  - To better understand the turn-of-the-century United States, this interdisciplinary lesson (covering 6-8 weeks) integrates use of primary resources with historical and literary analysis. Students work in groups and express themselves creatively through a multi-media epic poem. The artistic models for the students' multi-media epic poem are Walt Whitman's "Song of Myself" (1855) and Hart Crane's "The Bridge" (1930). While completing this unit, students will: identify and interpret primary source documents within an historical context; evaluate and appreciate the dynamic nature life in the United States in a time of transition; recognize and then employ poetic skills: line, metaphor, symbol, image, form, meter, and other stylistic considerations; and integrate creative writing, historical analysis, and technology. This 10th through 12th grade lesson plan is suited for American History or American Literature, preferably together. (PM)

T1  - Links to the Past: Creating Hypertext Dialogues Drawn from Narrative History Collections. Learning Page Lesson Plan.
AN  - 62204664; ED475776
AB  - This lesson plan asks students to use documents from "California As I Saw It: First Person Narratives, 1849-1900," in the American Memory Project to create a script depicting the motivations, expectations, fears, and realizations of immigrants who settled California between 1849 and 1900. According to the lesson plan, "California As I Saw It" consists of the full texts and illustrations of 190 works documenting the formative era of California's history through eyewitness accounts--the collection covers the dramatic decades between the Gold Rush and the turn of the 20th century. The plan intends for the student's finished product to be a "hypertext," an online written dialogue, containing links to illustrative written materials, images, and sound file from the American Memory collections. It first presents an overview and a sample hyperscript. The lesson plan contains a "student page" with explanatory information, including educational objectives, sources required, dramatic elements required, and project stages. It also contains a "teacher page" which outlines objectives; gives time required, discusses curriculum fit; lists resources; details a step-by-step procedure for the lesson's classroom implementation; and discusses extension and evaluation.

T1  - Visions in the Dust: A Child's Perspective of the Dust Bowl. Learning Page Lesson Plan.
AN  - 62204439; ED475783
AB  - Much of history is interpreted from an adult point of view. But in Karen Hesse's Newbery Award-winning "Out of the Dust," the Great Depression's Dust Bowl is seen through the eyes of a child. By using the novel, this lesson plan gives students the opportunity to identify with the personal experiences of youth in the 1930s. In addition, students examine primary source materials of the period to correlate the fictional text with actual visual, auditory, and manuscript accounts as found in the American Memory collections. The lesson plan: cites educational objectives; notes time required and recommended grade level; discusses curriculum fit; and lists resources used and materials needed. It next provides a detailed three-step procedure for classroom implementation of the lesson and addresses evaluation and extension. Contains information and photographs about the Dust Bowl. The lesson plan's student study guide first provides an overview of the lesson and cites student learning objectives. It points out how to implement the lesson by reading the book and looking at images of the Great Depression. It provides a guided reading journal and tips for searching in the American Memory collections. (NKA)

T1  - What Are We Fighting for Over There? Perspectives of the Great War. Learning Page Lesson Plan.
AN  - 62204415; ED475784
AB  - The Great War of 1914-1918 significantly shaped the course of the 20th century, both at home and abroad. How can this pivotal event be personalized and brought to life for students in the new millennium? Few survivors of the World War I era are alive today to directly share their recollections of this historical time. Yet, by delving into the unique resources of American Memory and by creating two World War I-period newspapers of differing perspectives, students can gain an enduring understanding of the Great War. This four-week lesson plan introduces students to primary source material and attempts to personalize students' comprehension of the Great War. The lesson plan cites educational objectives; notes time required, recommended grade level. and curriculum fit; outlines a detailed classroom procedure (Lesson One: Introduction to American Memory and Primary Sources, Lesson Two: American Leaders Speak; and Lesson Three: Newspaper Project); and discusses evaluation and extension.

T1  - Enhancing a Poetry Unit with American Memory. Learning Page Lesson Plan.
AN  - 62203790; ED476531
AB  - Broadly speaking, all poetry is "found" somewhere, in something which inspires a writer to want to develop his or her thoughts in verse. However, inspiration is sometimes lacking for both experienced poets and new ones, such as students who are required to write poetry for a class. "Found poetry" can serve as an antidote to an experienced poet's block, but it can also get a new poet rolling with the use of someone else's language, images, cadences, and observations about life. "American Life Histories: Manuscripts from the Federal Writers' Project, 1936-1940" provides a wealth of material on which to find "Found Poetry." In this lesson, designed for the 7th to 9th grades, students draw on "American Life Histories" to compose "found poetry." Students will draw on the language (dialect, jargon, descriptive detail, etc.), arrange and rearrange it, add language of their own, and ultimately create new poems which honor the histories, but are indeed the students' own work. This unit is best undertaken after students have studied a good amount of published poetry and are familiar with at least several different elements common to most verse. Selected manuscripts from the Federal Writers' Project are attached. (PM)

T1  - Figuring Somepin 'bout the Great Depression. Learning Page Lesson Plan.
AN  - 62201473; ED475844
AB  - These 10th and 11th grade lessons plans related to the Great Depression and the novel "The Grapes of Wrath" help students to: develop research skills and strategies, such as keyword searches, for finding information; recognize and use the different voices of migrants; and understand the politics of migration and the Great Depression. By examining primary sources, including songs, newspapers, interviews, and photographs of migrant farm workers in California during the Great Depression, students create a scrapbook from the point of view of a migrant worker, providing evidence of the colloquial speech used by the migrants and the issues affecting their lives. Using "Voices from the Dust Bowl, 1940-1941" and Farm Security Administration - Office of War Information (FSA/OWI) photographs, students select photographs and use the sound recordings of voices of the migrant workers to create captions, letters, and/or songs based on these primary sources. The four lesson plans focus on: analyzing a photograph; gathering voices; analyzing issues; and putting it all together. Includes links to the FSA/OWI Photographs and the "Voices from the Dust Bowl," and lists four other electronic and print resources. (PM)

AN  - 62201436; ED475846
AB  - In this middle school social studies and literature lesson plan, pictures from "America from the Great Depression to World War II" in the American Memory collection provide visual images to introduce and spark curiosity about "Jacob Have I Loved" by Katherine Paterson, a novel about jealousy set on an island in the Chesapeake Bay in the early 1940s. Through the lesson, students will develop: a visual image of the place described in words in their reading; a visual image of the activities described in the book and in their further studies of Chesapeake Bay; and a visual image of costume and appearance of the time. The lesson outlines a procedure and an evaluation and extension activity. Provides links to resources. (PM)

T1  - Twain's "Hannibal." Learning Page Lesson Plan.
AN  - 62200947; ED475782
AB  - Writers are influenced by their environment including family, community, lifestyle, or location. One such writer was Mark Twain. With this lesson plan the learner will become familiar with and analyze life around Mark Twain's hometown, Hannibal, Missouri, during the latter half of the 19th century by using various online and print resources to determine what effects this location had on Twain's writings. The curriculum context will be within a unit on Mark Twain's "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn." Segments of the lesson might also be integrated into a study of "Adventures of Tom Sawyer." Additional educational projects relating to the study of Twain and the novel are described under enrichment activities. Even though these activities center on Mark Twain and his writings, they could easily be adapted to almost any author and his environment. Following this overview, the lesson plan cites a recommended grade level and curriculum fit; lists online resources and print resources; outlines lessons--Lesson One: Analysis of Primary Resources, Lesson Two: Searching American Memory, and Lesson Three: Student Presentations (of 10-15 minutes); and suggests enrichment activities. Also contains map analysis, photograph analysis, and sheet music analysis worksheets. (NKA)

T1  - Marco Paul's Travels on the Erie Canal: An Educational Voyage. Learning Page Lesson Plan.
AN  - 62199779; ED475777
AB  - In Jacob Abbott's book, "Marco Paul's Travels on the Erie Canal," Marco's cousin Forester explains to Marco that there are two modes of acquiring knowledge--through books and through observation. Students obtain more complete and meaningful understanding of a topic when provided with experiences that use both primary and secondary sources. This book is one in a series of volumes entitled "Marco Paul's Adventures in the Pursuit of Knowledge." The books are designed not merely to entertain the reader with a narrative of juvenile adventures, but also to communicate as extensive and varied information as possible, in respect to the geography, the scenery, the customs, and the institutions of this country, as they present themselves to the observation of the little traveler, who makes his excursions under the guidance of an intelligent and informed companion. This 4-week lesson plan presents an overview; cites educational objectives; gives time required and recommended grade level; and notes curriculum fit and resources used. The lesson plan gives historical background on the canal; suggests primary source materials on relevant topics; offers sample photo analysis and document analysis guides; and presents information on primary sources. It also enumerates response journal questions for discussing the book and provides a detailed classroom procedure for a chapter-by-chapter discussion of the book. (NKA)

T1  - The Mathew Brady Bunch: Civil War Newspapers. Learning Page Lesson Plan.
AN  - 62199034; ED475778
AB  - The Civil War was the first American war thoroughly caught on film. Mathew Brady and his crew of photographers captured many images of this divisive war, ranging from portraits to battle scenes. These photographs--over 1,000--are in the American Memory Collection's "Selected Civil War Photographs, 1861-1865." This lesson plan asks students to become reporters, assigning them to sort through these photographs and find one that will bring the Civil War alive to their readers, and then asking them to write a newspaper article based on their chosen photographs and publish it on the World Wide Web. The lesson plan offers a teacher's guide which contains the following: an overview (which gives objectives, time required, recommended grade level, curriculum fit, resources used); a materials and preparation section; seven different activities and a detailed day-by-day procedure for classroom implementation; an evaluation and extension suggestions; and additional information about photographs. The student guide: presents a student project outline; lists student materials provided, including a photo analysis form, information on how to write an article, a research guide and a peer editing guide, HTML template, a self assessment and peer evaluation form, and a final evaluation form.

T1  - Murder and Mayhem. "The Great Gatsby": The Facts Behind the Fiction. Learning Page Lesson Plan.
AN  - 62198973; ED475779
AB  - To appreciate historical fiction, students need to understand the factual context and recognize how popular culture reflects the values, mores, and events of the time period. Since a newspaper records significant events and attitudes representative of a period, students create their own newspapers, utilizing primary source materials from several American Memory collections. American Memory is a Web site created by the Library of Congress which provides access to more than 7 million historical items, presented in over 100 thematic collections though the World Wide Web. This lesson plan featuring F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel, "The Great Gatsby," provides an overview; lists educational objectives; cites time required and recommended grade level; and notes resources used. The lesson plan then presents materials from American Memory Collections: Time: 1900-1929. Its teacher's guide is divided into three sections: Procedure (Part I: Using Primary Sources to Interpret Life during the 1920s; Part II. Primary Sources from the 1920s and "The Great Gatsby"; Part III. Creating a Literary Newspaper); Evaluation (Part IV. Assessment Page); and Sample Projects ("Jazz Age Journal"; "Green Light Gazette"). (NKA)

T1  - Differences in photoprotective pigment production between Japanese and Australian strains of Chattonella marina (Raphidophyceae)
AN  - 18426035; 5402334
AB  - Previous studies have shown that isolates of Chattonella marina from Australia and Japan exhibit differences in tolerance to high intensities of visible light. Here we show that the Australian strain of C. marina produces around five times more UV-absorbing mycosporine amino acids (MAAs) than the Japanese strain. This corresponds with 66% increased growth by the Australian strain under UVB exposure compared to no UV exposure. The MAA mycosporine-glycine, which reportedly acts as an antioxidant, was found in high quantity (110 fg cell super(-1)) in the Australian but was absent in the Japanese strain. In contrast, changes in the concentration of violaxanthin and zeaxanthin per cell were 4.7-4.8 times greater in the Japanese relative to the Australian strain suggesting that the Japanese strain uses a xanthophyll cycle to moderate inhibition by high photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) irradiance. Increased MAA production under high irradiance was also observed in other Australian strains of Chattonella, but not noted in other Japanese strains suggesting ecophenotypic adaptation due to differing environmental conditions.

AN  - 62207860; ED476530
AB  - Noting that Alice in Wonderland's journey is not unlike the experience of an immigrant who relocates to a new country, this lesson plan uses passages from "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland," along with various history texts, class discussions of students' experiences, and primary source documents and images from the American Memory collections, to help students uncover the common themes of the immigrant experience. This 6-activity lesson plan for 6th through 8th grades is applicable for American History, Language Arts, and English as a Second Language. Through the lesson, students will be able to: understand common themes of the immigrant experience, such as pushes and pulls, encountering differences, and assimilation; identify the common themes of the immigrant experience in a primary source oral history or narrative; draw conclusions about the themes of the immigrant experience by analyzing primary source photographs; and reinforce and extend understanding of the immigrant experience by creating a primary source photographic exhibit.

At the moment, the concept is one of evolving meaning, but may be used, like national security, to justify the exercise of prerogative power in ways harmful to constitutional arrangements of government & guaranteed citizen rights. The presidential coordination office has been mandated in such a manner as to seemingly frustrate both congressional access to its director & congressional efforts to assess the efficiency & effectiveness of its operations. 7 References.

T1  - A model of the development of the brain as a construct of the thyroid system.
AN  - 21250626; 11702280
AB  - Thyroid hormone is essential for normal brain development. However, little is known about the molecular and cellular mechanisms that mediate thyroid hormone action on the developing brain or the developmental events selectively affected. Consequently, although a large number of environmental chemicals interfere with the thyroid system, there are few neurodevelopmental end points to recruit for toxicological studies. Therefore, my goal here is to review what is known about the relative timing of normal brain construction and thyroid system development, with special focus on the period of in utero development in humans and the comparable developmental period in laboratory rats. These data are presented as a timeline to aid in the identification of thyroid-sensitive end points in brain development and to highlight important data gaps. I discuss the known influence of certain synthetic chemicals on the thyroid system and include a brief review of the effects of developmental exposure to chemicals on thyroid system function. The relationship between the thyroid hormone and retinoic acid systems, as well as the thyroid hormone sensitivity of the developing cochlea, is also discussed.

T1  - A zero-inflated Poisson mixed model to analyze diagnosis related groups with majority of same-day hospital stays
AN  - 18649791; 5550065
AB  - With increasing trend of same-day procedures and operations performed for hospital admissions, it is important to analyze those Diagnosis Related Groups (DRGs) consisting of mainly same-day separations. A zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) mixed model is presented to identify health- and patient-related characteristics associated with length of stay (LOS) and to model variations in LOS within such DRGs. Random effects are introduced to account for inter-hospital variations and the dependence of clustered LOS observations via the generalized linear mixed models (GLMM) approach. Parameter estimation is achieved by maximizing an appropriate log-likelihood function using the EM algorithm to obtain approximate residual maximum likelihood (REML) estimates. An S-Plus macro is developed to provide a unified ZIP modeling approach. The determination of pertinent factors would benefit hospital administrators and clinicians to manage LOS and expenditures efficiently.

T1  - Cryopreserved human haematopoietic stem cells retain engraftment potential after extended (5-14 years) cryostorage
AN  - 18594395; 5446135
AB  - Harvesting of stem cells during the early phases of treatment with no immediate intention to perform a stem cell transplant is becoming an increasingly common practice. Such 'insurance' harvests are often stored for many years before being needed for transplant in a subsequent relapse. The effect of long-term cryostorage (5-14 years) on the viability and functional capacity of haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) was investigated in 40 bone marrow and peripheral blood harvests using standard in vitro methods, the colony forming unit-granulocyte/macrophage (CFU-GM) assay and a single platform viable CD34 super(+) cell absolute count by flow cytometry. Forty percent of harvests had CD34 super(+) HSC counts of at least 0.7 x 10 super(6)/kg bodyweight and 85% had CFU-GM counts of at least1.0 x 10 super(5) /kg bodyweight, these values representing our institutional minimum requirements for safe transplantation. Based on these results, it appears that HSC collections can remain adequate for safe transplantation after up to 14 years of cryostorage. However, as deterioration of HSC quality and viability may occur, some precautions may be warranted, namely harvesting higher than normal numbers of HSCs in collections intended for long-term storage and repeating in vitro assays on harvests after long-term storage prior to transplantation.

T1  - Seasonal stratification and mixing in a recently flooded mining void in tropical Australia
AN  - 18560592; 5399869
AB  - Enterprise Pit Lake is a water-filled mining void located in Australia's wet/dry tropics south of Darwin in the Northern Territory (13 degree 49.6'S, 131 degree 49.8'E). In the mid-1990s, the void was rapidly filled by the artificial diversion of the nearby Pine Creek watercourse. Profile data and surface water quality data were collected in the lake on a monthly basis from November 1998 to October 1999. Analysis of this data showed that Enterprise Pit Lake was strongly stratified for most of the year with deep mixing occurring once during the middle of the cool, dry season (). The relatively small volume of its epilimnion and its low productivity allowed significant oxygen concentrations to remain in the hypolimnion of the lake when it was strongly stratified. Low pH values in a layer of water with a depth of approximately 35 m and located in the lake's hypolimnion might be associated with several factors, including enhanced sulphide oxidation on the walls of the pit in this region.

T1  - Creep-fatigue failure of an aero engine turbine blades
AN  - 18529105; 5492367
AB  - A fighter plane had undergone problems during flight. Initial investigation pointed out that one 2nd stage turbine blade was fractured. Metallurgical investigation revealed that the fractured blade was subjected to abnormally high stresses at elevated temperature. This situation led to the creep and created 'w-cracks' (triple point cracks) in the blade by the mechanism of grain boundary sliding. These cracks became the initiation sites of the fatigue cracks. The blade finally failed due to fatigue under low cycle fatigue (LCF) conditions.

AN  - 18469182; 5431060
AB  - Periodic monitoring of antimicrobial susceptibility of Neisseria gonorrhoeae is essential for early detection of emergence of drug resistance. A total of 343 gonococcal strains isolated from high-risk and general populations in Bangladesh from 1997 to 1999 were studied. The MICs of penicillin, tetracycline, ciprofloxacin, ceftriaxone, and spectinomycin for the isolates were determined by the agar dilution method. Of the isolates from 1997, 9% were resistant (MIC >= 1.0 mu g/ml) to ciprofloxacin, while 41 and 49% of the isolates from 1998 and 1999, respectively, were resistant to ciprofloxacin. Of the N. gonorrhoeae isolates from 1998 and 1999, 1.2 and 3.6%, respectively, both were penicillinase producing and displayed plasmid-mediated tetracycline resistance.

T1  - Substrate Recognition Properties of Oligopeptidase B from Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium
AN  - 18459655; 5434871
AB  - Oligopeptidase B (OpdB) is a serine peptidase broadly distributed among unicellular eukaryotes, gram-negative bacteria, and spirochetes which has emerged as an important virulence factor and potential therapeutic target in infectious diseases. We report here the cloning and expression of the opdB homologue from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium and demonstrate that it exhibits amidolytic activity exclusively against substrates with basic residues in P sub(1). While similar to its eukaryotic homologues in terms of substrate specificity, Salmonella OpdB differs significantly in catalytic power and inhibition and activation properties. In addition to oligopeptide substrates, restricted proteolysis of histone proteins was observed, although no cleavage was seen at or near residues that had been posttranslationally modified or at defined secondary structures. This supports the idea that the catalytic site of OpdB may be accessible only to unstructured oligopeptides, similar to the closely related prolyl oligopeptidase (POP). Salmonella OpdB was employed as a model enzyme to define determinants of substrate specificity that distinguish OpdB from POP, which hydrolyzes substrates exclusively at proline residues. Using site-directed mutagenesis, nine acidic residues that are conserved in OpdBs but absent from POPs were converted to their corresponding residues in POP. In this manner, we identified a pair of glutamic acid residues, Glu super(576) and Glu super(578), that define P sub(1) specificity and direct OpdB cleavage C terminal to basic residues. We have also identified a second pair of residues, Asp super(460) and Asp super(462), that may be involved in defining P sub(2) specificity and thus direct preferential cleavage by OpdB after pairs of basic residues.

T1  - Variation of Branched-Chain Fatty Acids Marks the Normal Physiological Range for Growth in Listeria monocytogenes
AN  - 18456298; 5430390
AB  - The fatty acid composition of Listeria monocytogenes Scott A was determined by close-interval sampling over the entire biokinetic temperature range. There was a high degree of variation in the percentage of branched-chain fatty acids at any given temperature. The percentage of branched C sub(17) components increased with growth temperature in a linear manner. However, the percentages of iso-C sub(15:0) (i15:0) and anteiso-C sub(15:0) (a15:0) were well described by third-order and second-order polynomial curves, respectively. There were specific temperature regions where the proportion of branched-chain fatty acids deviated significantly from the trend established over the entire growth range. In the region from 12 to 13 degree C there were significant deviations in the percentages of both i15:0 and a15:0 together with a suggested deviation in a17:0, resulting in a significant change in the total branched-chain fatty acids. In the 31 to 33 degree C region the percentage of total branched-chain components exhibited a significant deviation. The observed perturbations in fatty acid composition occurred near the estimated boundaries of the normal physiological range for growth.

T1  - Exercise-induced oxyhaemoglobin desaturation, ventilatory limitation and lung diffusing capacity in women during and after exercise
AN  - 18434488; 5412904
AB  - Arterial haemoglobin saturation during exercise in healthy young women [eight subjects mean (SEM) age 20.8 (1.8) years] was measured to confirm the theory that young women experience exercise-induced arterial hypoxaemia (EIAH) at a lower relative percentage of maximal oxygen uptake (VO sub(2max)) than has been documented in their male counterparts. To determine if flow limitation [the percentage of the tidal volume (V sub(T)) that met or exceeded the boundary established by multiple maximal expiratory manoeuvres] and/or post-exercise lung diffusing capacity are linked to EIAH in women, and to investigate the influence of exercise intensity and duration on post-exercise carbon monoxide lung diffusing capacity (D sub(L, CO)), these parameters were measured during and after three exercise tests (incremental test until exhaustion, 5 km run and 5 km run with sprint). All subjects experienced physiologically significant EIAH (a fall of more than 3% in oxygen saturation of arterial blood from levels at rest) and seven subjects experienced flow limitation during the VO sub(2max) protocol [mean (SD) 12.2 (8.8)% of V sub(T)]. Even though there was no significant relationship between aerobic capacity and the degree of flow limitation (r=0.33, P>0.05), the flow limitation was related to absolute ventilation in the subjects studied (r=0.82, P0.05), however there was a strong correlation between the extent of flow limitation (% of V sub(T)) and EIAH (r=0.71). Significant decreases in D sub(L, CO) lasted for up to 16 h after each of the exercise tests (P<0.05) and lasted for a further 8 h after the maximal test (P<0.05). Exercise intensity was the main contributing factor to the observed decreases in post-exercise D sub(L, CO) with the percentage of VO sub(2max) attained during the various tests being significantly related to the fall in D sub(L, CO) for 1, 2, 3, 16 and 24 h after exercise (P<0.05). As the appearance of flow limitation closely coincided with the appearance of EIAH, the results from the present study suggest that flow limitation is a contributing factor to EIAH in women although the exact mechanism remains unclear.

T1  - Ecophysiology of the Soft Tree Fern, Dicksonia antarctica Labill
AN  - 18432869; 5411969
AB  - Environmental constraints on gas exchange, stomatal conductance and water relations were investigated in the Soft Tree Fern, Dicksonia antarctica , at sites across its natural distribution and in the glasshouse. Dicksonia antarctica exhibited strong stomatal response down to a vapour pressure deficit (VPD) of 0.25 kPa, an unusual characteristic when compared with other ground fern species. Net photosynthetic rate may be a response of the microenvironment prevalent during frond development, reflecting acclimatory capacity. Both these ecophysiological characteristics are consistent with the ecological niche of D. antarctica , a long-lived, fire-resistant species that, during its lifetime, may be exposed to: (i) a humid environment beneath a rainforest canopy; and (ii) an exposed environment following wildfire. Maximum net photosynthesis and quantum yield of photosynthesis correlated strongly with VPD and the maximum net photosynthetic rate of 10.8 mu mol m super(-2) s super(-1) was the highest yet recorded for a fern. These observations are consistent with the relatively low growth typically observed in D. antarctica on sunny, exposed sites and vice versa on cool, humid sites exposed to sunflecks. Favourable water relations maintained under conditions of moderate VPD (2.03 kPa) were probably due to stomatal control. However, inadequate rainfall or high VPD (4.98 kPa) caused water stress, recovery of which was limited by slow water transport through fronds. These observations are consistent with the limitation of D. antarctica distribution to sites sheltered from hot winds and with reliable water supply. The funnel-shaped rosette of fronds of D. antarctica may harvest rainfall and make it accessible to aerial roots situated at the base of fronds. This process may maintain favourable water relations independently of a subterranean root system. This proposed strategy of water acquisition is unique for a fern species and may eliminate a need for soil moisture competition with surrounding plant species. It is suggested that the ecophysiological characteristics observed in D. antarctica in this study may contribute to the ecological niche it occupies, which is characterized by a variable environment.

T1  - Distribution and Diversity of Benthic Macroinvertebrates Associated with Aquatic Macrophytes
AN  - 18431307; 5405272
AB  - We examined macroinvertebrate characteristics and associations with macrophytes in a small spring-fed impoundment, Aquetong Lake in Bucks County, PA. Benthic samples obtained from the 1 m depth contour were sieved to collect, identify, and determine dry mass on macroinvertebrates, detrital material, macroalgae and macrophyte tissue. Chironomids dominated along with gastropods and isopods. Chironomids were twice as abundant along the siltier nearshore bank. The sandier far shore bank supported two-fold higher taxonomic richness with macroinvertebrate mass also being 25% higher. Vascular macrophytes characterized the silty sediment, while macroalgae and allochthonous detritus predominated in sandy sediment. Results from linear and quadratic regressions suggest that macroinvertebrate mass and abundance are higher in algal-dominated sites, but higher taxonomic richness and macroinvertebrate diversity are associated with vascular macrophyte communities.

T1  - Live Trapping of Macroinvertebrates in Small Moorland Pools: A Method Developed for the Threatened Syncarid Allanaspides hickmani (Syncarida: Anaspididae)
AN  - 18427821; 5405276
AB  - Allanaspides hickmani Swain Wilson and Ong 1971 is a rare freshwater crustacean that occurs in small pools in buttongrass moorlands of southwest Tasmania, Australia. I tested several simple methods to live trap and release this species and found that an unbaited plastic petri-dish, with a hole drilled into the lid, was a successful trap. Both male and female A. hickmani entered the traps and all size classes appeared to be caught. The trap may be useful for other freshwater invertebrates as several non-target species were also caught.

T1  - Incidence and Spatial Distribution of Viruses in Hop Gardens of Washington State
AN  - 18421881; 5409813
AB  - The incidences of Hop latent virus (HpLV), Hop mosaic virus (HpMV), and American hop latent virus (AHLV), members of the genus Carlavirus, and Prunus necrotic ringspot virus and Apple mosaic virus, members of the genus Ilarvirus, were assessed for two hop cultivars, Horizon and Nugget, in Washington State. The spatial distribution of plants infected by the carlaviruses was assessed in two Horizon gardens in 2000 and one Nugget garden in 1993, 1994, and 1995. In the first Horizon garden (garden 1) and the Nugget garden, plants were separated by 2.1 m within and between rows. In these gardens, cultivation and the wide plant spacing discouraged contact between plants in either direction. In the second Horizon garden (garden 2), plants were separated by 4.3 m between rows and 1.0 m within rows. In all gardens, mechanical operations operated predominantly along rows; however, the closer plant spacing within rows in garden 2 permitted contact between adjacent plants within rows. In both Horizon gardens, the distribution of plants infected with HpMV was aggregated within rows. However, the distribution of plants infected with HpLV and AHLV was strongly influenced by contact between plants. In the Nugget garden, the distribution of plants infected by all three carlaviruses was autocorrelated within rows by 1995.

T1  - Identification and mapping of molecular markers linked to rust resistance genes located on chromosome 1RS of rye using wheat-rye translocation lines
AN  - 18413282; 5400147
AB  - The short arm of rye (Secale cereale) chromosome 1 has been widely used in breeding programs to incorporate new disease resistance genes into wheat. Using wheat-rye translocation and recombinant lines, molecular markers were isolated and mapped within chromosomal regions of 1RS carrying rust resistance genes Lr26, Sr31, Yr9 from 'Petkus' and SrR from 'Imperial' rye. RFLP markers previously mapped to chromosome 1HS of barley - flanking the complex Mla powdery mildew resistance gene locus - and chromosome 1DS of Aegilops tauschii - flanking the Sr33 stem rust resistance gene - were shown to map on either side of rust resistance genes on 1RS. Three non cross-hybridising Resistance Gene Analog markers, one of them being derived from the Mla gene family, were mapped within same region of 1RS. PCR-based markers were developed which were tightly linked to the rust resistance genes in 'Imperial' and 'Petkus' rye and which have potential for use in marker-assisted breeding.

T1  - Interspecific competitive ability of homokaryotic and heterokaryotic wood decay basidiomycetes
AN  - 18409888; 5399996
AB  - The role of the homokaryotic life stage in the dynamics of fungal communities is relatively unknown. However, homokaryons are thought to be only a temporary stage and are therefore not generally used in ecological experiments with fungi. In this study, the relative competitive ability and growth rates of homokaryons and heterokaryons of wood decay fungi were tested to assess the potential role of homokaryons in community dynamics. A homokaryon and a heterokaryon of each of four species (Aleurodiscus lividocoeruleus, Peniophora sp. 1, Peniophora sp. 2 and Pereniporia medulla-panis ) were assessed for their competitive abilities on an agar medium. The relationship between nuclear status and competitive ability varied between species. The homokaryon of Peniophora sp. 2 was competitively superior to its heterokaryon, whereas the homokaryon of Peniophora sp. 1 was inferior to its heterokaryon. A hierarchy of competitive abilities of each isolate revealed that Pereniporia medulla-panis homokaryon = P. medulla-panis heterokaryon > Peniophora sp. 1 heterokaryon > Peniophora sp. 2 homokaryon > Peniophora sp. 2 heterokaryon > A. lividocoeruleus heterokaryon = A. lividocoeruleus homokaryon. This experiment indicates that homokaryons as well as heterokaryons have the potential to influence community structure through competitive effects.

T1  - Behavior of Sister Copies of Mini-F Plasmid after Synchronized Plasmid Replication in Escherichia coli Cells
AN  - 18379797; 5367427
AB  - To clarify whether sister copies of mini-F plasmid are immediately separated from each other after replication, we analyzed the behavior of sister mini-F copies after synchronized replication of mini-F. Sister copies of mini-F were separated immediately or shortly after replication, in contrast to sister oriC copies of the Escherichia coli chromosome.

T1  - Role of Nitric Oxide in Host Defense in Murine Salmonellosis as a Function of Its Antibacterial and Antiapoptotic Activities
AN  - 18309481; 5370734
AB  - Host defense functions of nitric oxide (NO) are known for many bacterial infections. In this study, we investigated the antimicrobial effect of NO in murine salmonellosis by using inducible NO synthase (iNOS)-deficient mice infected with an avirulent or virulent Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium strain. All iNOS-deficient mice died of severe septicemia within 6 days after intraperitoneal injection with an avirulent strain (LT2) to which wild-type mice were highly resistant; 50% lethal doses (LD sub(50)s) of the LT2 strain for iNOS-deficient and wild-type mice were 30 CFU and 7 x 10 CFU, respectively. Lack of NO production in iNOS-deficient mice was verified directly by electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Bacterial yields in liver and blood were much higher in iNOS-deficient mice than in wild-type mice throughout the course of infection. Very small amounts of a virulent strain of serovar Typhimurium (a clinical isolate, strain Gifu 12142; LD sub(50), 50 CFU) given orally caused severe septicemia in iNOS-deficient animals; wild-type mice tolerated higher doses (LD sub(50), 6 x 10 CFU). Histopathology of livers from infected iNOS-deficient mice revealed extensive damage, such as diffuse hepatocellular apoptosis and increased neutrophil infiltration, but livers from infected wild-type mice showed a limited number of microabscesses, consisting of polymorphonuclear cells and macrophages and low levels of apoptotic change. The LT2 strain was much more susceptible to the bactericidal effect of peroxynitrite than the Gifu strain, suggesting that peroxynitrite resistance may contribute to Salmonella pathogenicity. These results indicate that NO has significant host defense functions in Salmonella infections not only because of its direct antimicrobial effect but also via cytoprotective actions for infected host cells, possibly through its antiapoptotic effect.

T1  - Sexually Dimorphic Nonreproductive Behaviors as Indicators of Endocrine Disruption
AN  - 14629770; 10627143
AB  - The roots of sex differences in nonreproductive behavior are reviewed, showing that because sexual differentiation of the brain is guided primarily by the actions of gonadal hormones aided by thyroid hormones, disturbing the appropriate hormonal balance during development will produce morphological, neurochemical, and behavioral abnormalities. Sex differences are also described in behavioral toxicity, in sensory function, and in schedule-controlled operant performance, which can be used to illuminate the scope of adverse developmental consequences produced by chemicals with endocrine-disrupting properties.

T1  - Electrophysiologic and Behavioral Effects of Perinatal and Acute Exposure of Rats to Lead and Polychlorinated Biphenyls
AN  - 14629732; 10627142
AB  - Wistar and Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to lead in drinking water before breeding and throughout gestation and lactation, or during lactation only, and timed-pregnant virgin rats were fed different concentrations of PCB 153 daily from gestational day 7 through postnatal day 21. Subsequently, electrophysiological recordings from hippocampal brain slices were examined along with whole-body behavior. For the electrophysiology study, the effects of Pb and PCB 153 on the different forms of long-term potentiation were examined at different ages. Both contaminants were found to have similar actions on long-term potentiation, including a change from reducing to facilitating long-term potentiation in hippocampal area 3 with development. Both Pb and PCB 153 altered basal synaptic transmissions, and the actions were not specific to plastic events only. Animals exposed to Pb or PCB 153 exhibited hyperactive and impulsive tendencies.

T1  - Goitrogenic and Estrogenic Activity of Soy Isoflavones
AN  - 14628517; 10627138
AB  - Genistein, which is the major isoflavone synthesized by the soybean, possess both estrogenic and goitrogenic activities. The estrogenic activity and toxicity of genistein are described briefly, and the potential for thyroid toxicity of soy isoflavones is explored, citing data gleaned from the literature on the link between soy consumption and goiter. The data show that soy effects on the thyroid involve the relationship between iodine status and thyroid function. In rat studies, genistein was measured in thyroid at levels producing dose-dependent and significant inactivation of thyroid peroxidase in vivo when the rats were given genistein-fortified diets. The possible effects of soy on human thyroid health are discussed.

T1  - Early Cerebral Activities of the Environmental Estrogen Bisphenol A Appear to Act via the Somatostatin Receptor Subtype sst sub(2)
AN  - 14623183; 10627145
AB  - Somatostatin plays a crucial role in neurosecretory function at the encephalic level, especially in relation to tissue content. One of the five distinct receptor subtypes of somatostatin, sst sub(2), is distributed densely in the various brain regions and is known to promote neurotransmission actions. The subtype has provided a specific analgesic type of behavioral response similar to that noted for the hetero-oligomeric gamma -aminobutyric acid (GABA) type A receptor. In this study, the binding activity of sst sub(2), alone or in the presence of some alpha GABA type A receptor subunit isoforms, was evaluated in sexually mature Sprague-Dawley rats in terms of whether it occurs in an estrogenic fashion in the presence of bisphenol A. The binding activity of sst sub(2) was compared with relatively low and high doses of bisphenol A. At both doses, bisphenol A at the brain level appeared to behave in an estrogenic fashion, but at the higher dose, bisphenol A was responsible for the evident binding capacity of both affinity states of sst sub(2) in some areas of the posterior limbic regions. The data suggested that the low-affinity state was the preferential target of the environmental estrogen.

T1  - Thyroid Hormone, Brain Development, and the Environment
AN  - 14623135; 10627139
AB  - Literature data are reviewed that suggest that some environmental chemicals can disrupt thyroid hormone signaling without affecting circulating levels of thyroid hormone. The literature on thyroid hormone and brain development is reviewed as a context for the concept, along with the effects of PCBs on this system. The effects of PCB exposure on thyroid hormone-responsive genes show that thyroid hormone action could be disrupted without changes to overt measures of thyroid function. This will have important implications for screening programs that use circulating levels of thyroid hormones as the sole index of thyroid toxicology.

T1  - Effects of Incubation Temperature and Estrogen Exposure on Aromatase Activity in the Brain and Gonads of Embryonic Alligators
AN  - 14622025; 10627144
AB  - The timing and levels of aromatase activity were determined in the brain and gonads of putative female, male, and sex-reversed female alligator embryos. The treatment groups consisted of control females incubated at 30 degree C, control males incubated at 33.5 degree C, and sex-reversed females incubated at 33.5 degree C. The individuals in each group were treated topically with 90 mu g estradiol-17 beta (E sub(2)) at stage 19. Embryos were selected subsequently for dissection at stages 20, 22, and 24, and brains and paired gonadadrenalmesonephros complexes (GAMs) were assayed for aromatase activity. At stage 22, enzyme activity in control females was lower in GAMs than in control males and sex-reversed females. At stage 24, there was a dramatic increase in enzyme activity in control females, whereas control males exhibited a slight decrease, and a moderate increase in aromatase activity was detected in E sub(2)-treated females that was higher than that in control males and lower than that in control females. From stages 22 to 24, aromatase activity in brain increased in control males and females, but not in sex-reversed females.

T1  - Exposure to a Low Dose of Bisphenol A During Fetal Life or in Adulthood Alters Maternal Behavior in Mice
AN  - 14621569; 10627148
AB  - CD-1 mice were exposed to a low dose of bisphenol A in utero and/or during their own pregnancy as adults, and effects on maternal behavior were examined. The bisphenol A dose was 10 mu g/kg/d. Dams exposed only as fetuses or only during their own pregnancy spent significantly less time nursing their pups compared to controls, whereas the effect was not observed in animals exposed to bisphenol A both as fetuses and again during their own pregnancies. Exposure to bisphenol A increased the amount of time spent nest-building, the amount of time spent resting away from the nest, and the amount of time spent grooming. Exposure to bisphenol A during pregnancy caused rats to be more active than controls or those exposed in utero. In offspring, differences in the cliff-drop aversion reflex and righting reflex were noted between exposed and control animals, but the differences were not significant.

T1  - Androgens and Environmental Antiandrogens Affect Reproductive Development and Play Behavior in the Sprague-Dawley Rat
AN  - 14621447; 10627151
AB  - Several issues are examined for studying environmental androgens and antiandrogens in the rat model. Data from the literature are cited in an exploration of the issues, noting the role of androgens in reproductive and behavioral development, the natural variation in androgen concentrations during development, and the effect of androgen-active chemicals on rat behavior. Several useful biomarkers are suggested for characterizing the prenatal androgen environment, including the androgen-sensitive anogenital distance and areola/nipple formation. The data also show that play behavior can provide a straightforward model for assessing the effects of environmental chemicals on androgen-receptor-organized development.

T1  - Evidence That GABAergic Neurons in the Preoptic Area of the Rat Brain Are Targets of 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-Dioxin During Development
AN  - 14621293; 10627141
AB  - The neural targets that mediate the organizational effects of steroids might also be targets of TCDD. In this study, the effects of TCDD on glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) 67 gene expression were examined in the preoptic area regions of male and female offspring of Holtzman rat dams treated with TCDD on gestational day 15. In addition, dual-label in situ hybridization histochemistry was used to verify that mRNAs encoding the aryl hydrocarbon receptor were present in GABAergic neurons of the preoptic area of developing brains as they are in adults. Results demonstrated that all GABAergic neurons detected in the preoptic area contained aryl hydrocarbon receptor mRNA, regardless of the region, but the effects of TCDD on GAD 67 gene expression differed among regions and between sexes. In the rostral preoptic area/antenoventral periventricular nucleus region, GAD 67 mRNA levels were significantly higher in females than in males, and a TCDD-induced decrease in levels was detected only in females. No sex differences in GAD 67 mRNA levels were found in unexposed animals, but TCDD exposure decreased the levels specifically in males.

T1  - The Parvocellular Vasotocin System of Japanese Quail: a Developmental and Adult Model for the Study of Influences of Gonadal Hormones on Sexually Differentiated and Behaviorally Relevant Neural Circuits
AN  - 14620880; 10627149
AB  - Parvocellular vasotocin-immunoreactive neurons have been found to be similar in all bird species, and thin vasotocin-imunoreactive fibers have been observed in several brain regions outside the hypothalamo-neurohypophysial tract in different avian species. A summary is provided of recent laboratory studies that have shown that, in Japanese quail, vasotocin neurons of the medial part of the nucleus of the stria terminalis project to the nucleus preopticus medialis. Sexual dimorphism of the vasotocin system in the brains of birds is described, as are the effects of gonadal steroids in adult birds, the organizational effects of steroids, and the behavioral effects of vasotocin in birds. The data suggest that the quail model could be valuable for studies of the molecular processes of sexual differentiation with a cellular level of anatomical resolution. The sensitivity of the vasotocin parvocellular system to estrogens in the egg and the irreversible nature of the effects suggest that these neural circuits could be used to monitor exposure to environmental estrogens.

T1  - Effect of Perinatal Exposure to Bisphenol A on Sociosexual Behavior of Female and Male Rats
AN  - 14619590; 10627147
AB  - Mature Sprague-Dawley rats of both sexes were exposed to bisphenol A at a dose of 40 mu g/kg, either prenatally or postnatally during lactation, and effects on the sociosexual behavior of offspring were examined. Behavioral testing was initiated at 100 d of age. In females, agonistic behavior was not affected by perinatal treatment with bisphenol A. However, perinatal administration modified the exit latency and number of lordosis posture, and cycle was significant for number of lordosis posture, lordosis quotient, and frequency of proceptive behavior. Prenatal exposure in males increased the proportion of animals showing defensive behavior, while the number showing ambivalent behavior was decreased. Males also showed an increase in the number of intromissions due to perinatal exposure to bisphenol A, but only in those exposed postnatally, whereas those exposed prenatally exhibited increased latency to intromission and genital sniff duration.

T1  - Effects of Perinatal Exposure to Bisphenol A on Play Behavior of Female and Male Juvenile Rats
AN  - 14617956; 10627146
AB  - Bisphenol A was administered to pregnant female rats, either at a low dose for long periods or at a higher dose for short periods, and the play behavior of offspring was monitored. The bisphenol A doses of 40 and 400 mu g/ml were within the range of human environmental exposure. Behavioral observations were conducted at postnatal days 35, 45, and 55, and play was defined as activity involving exaggerated movements and inhibited attacks with no obvious goal. Statistical analysis of the resulting data showed that the frequency of play behavior directed to females was increased by bisphenol A, being more marked in females at the low dose and in males at the high dose. In both sexes, the frequency of crawl-under behavior was decreased. At both doses, the frequency of sociosexual exploration was decreased in males, but increased in females, and at the high dose, the frequency of social interest was decreased in both sexes.

T1  - Aromatase Activity in the Ovary and Brain of the Eastern Mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki) Exposed to Paper Mill Effluent
AN  - 14617543; 10627150
AB  - Cytochrome P450-aromatase activity was measured in the ovary and brain of adult female mosquitofish Gambusia holbrooki exposed and not exposed to paper mill effluent. The assay protocol is outlined. Fish were collected downstream of the Buckeye Paper Mill in the Fenholloway River and from the uncontaminated Econfina River, both in Florida. Females from the impacted river were significantly smaller than the controls, both in terms of length and mass. Females from the Fenholloway River exhibited elevated ovarian follicular aromatase activity compared to females from the Econfina River, and a similar finding was detected in brain aromatase activity. The results did not support aromatase inhibition as a mechanism of Fenholloway River mosquitofish masculinization, although masculinization was attributed to androgenic contamination in the river.

T1  - Birth Defects, Season of Conception, and Sex of Children Born to Pesticide Applicators Living in the Red River Valley of Minnesota, USA
AN  - 14616963; 10627152
AB  - In the five-county Red River Valley area of Minnesota, the reproductive health of pesticide applicators and their families was studied. Data were compiled via survey on reproductive health in terms of births and congenital anomalies and on pesticide use. Results showed that 70 children born to 536 couples had one or more birth defects. Analysis of the pedigree data showed that three of the 12 families with more than one child with a birth defect followed the Mendelian or familial birth anomaly pattern. In terms of pesticide use, 15.4% of applicators who applied fumigants, insecticides, and herbicides had at least one child with a birth defect compared with 6.8% of the referent exposure group who applied only herbicides. More male children were born with birth defects than female children when no fungicides were applied, but when fungicides were applied, far fewer males were born with birth defects. Conceptions in the spring, when herbicides are applied routinely, led to a significantly increased number of birth defects.

AN  - 62295189; ED463771
AB  - The National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped (NLS), Library of Congress, administers a free national library program of Braille and recorded materials for eligible individuals residing in the United States or for citizens living abroad. Under a special provision of the U.S. copyright law and with the permission of authors and publishers of works not covered by the provision, NLS selects and produces full-length books and magazines in Braille and recorded formats. Reading materials and necessary audio equipment are distributed to a cooperating network of regional and local libraries where they are then circulated directly to eligible borrowers. This paper discusses the NLS in three main sections. The first section, "Background," discusses funding; eligibility; book collection; magazines; equipment and accessories; music services; volunteer services; Braille competency; reference; consumer relations; and research and development. The second section focuses on non-English materials: production; Spanish-language collection; bibliographic control; service to Spanish-speaking users in the U.S.; and the foreign language plan. The last section discusses international cooperation. (AEF)

AN  - 14638957; 10628570
AB  - The changing structure of the US agricultural sector, especially in terms of mergers between major grain companies and concentration in the livestock segment, has raised questions about the federal government's role in pursuing cases of unfair competition or violations of antitrust laws. The basis of antitrust enforcement, and federal statutes and agencies involved in antitrust regulation affecting agriculture, are discussed. Relevant congressional activity, including provisions of the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002, is summarized.

T1  - Placental and breast transfer of antibodies after maternal immunization with polysaccharide meningococcal vaccine: a randomized, controlled evaluation
AN  - 18437460; 5411449
AB  - We evaluated the strategy of maternal immunization with Neisseria meningitidis (Nm) vaccine in Asian mothers, to assess potential protection of infants, including by breast milk. One hundred and fifty-seven women in the third trimester were randomized to receive a single dose of the polysaccharide Nm (n = 75) or a control vaccine (n = 82). Group A Nm IgG levels were measured in maternal and infant sera, and specific IgA in breast milk. A 5.6-fold rise of Nm IgG antibody was observed among the Nm vaccinees. At delivery, geometric mean titres (GMTs) of Nm IgG antibody in Nm mothers was 12.5 mu g/ml versus 4.97 mu g/ml, with a mean infant/maternal antibody ratio of 0.56. Infants of Nm vaccinees had mean IgG levels of 6.9, 2.3, 1.2 and 0.6 mu g/ml at 0, 6, 14 and 22 weeks, significantly higher than in control children up to 14 weeks. Anti-Nm IgA levels in milk were 6.8 to 2.0 mu g/ml, significantly higher in Nm vaccinees till 6 months. Immunization during pregnancy is safe for both mothers and infants, and provides infants with significantly increased levels of specific IgG for 2-3 months and oral IgA for 6 months.

T1  - Expression of a streptococcal glucosyltransferase as a fusion to a solute-binding protein in Lactobacillus fermentum BR11
AN  - 18450302; 5422651
AB  - BspA is a non-covalently anchored cystine-binding protein from Lactobacillus fermentum BR11. It has previously been used to present antigens derived from infectious organisms on the L. fermentum BR11 cell surface. In this study, the capacity of BspA to present a very large polypeptide was tested. A temperature sensitive plasmid was constructed that encodes a 175-kDa chimeric protein consisting of a fusion between BspA and an N-terminally truncated derivative of the Streptococcus salivarius ATCC 25975 glucosyltransferase GtfJ. This plasmid was introduced into the L. fermentum genome. Integrants were able to incorporate 20-40 nmol sucrose derived glucose into glucan per ml culture per optical density unit. The glucosyltransferase activity was external to the cytoplasmic membrane and bound to the cell. Unlike native BspA, the BspA-GtfJ fusion could not be removed from the cell by 5 M LiCl wash.

T1  - Implementation and Reauthorization of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996. Hearing before the Committee on Indian Affairs on the Implementation and Reauthorization of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 in Indian Country. United States Senate, One Hundred Seventh Congress, Second Session.
AN  - 62201006; ED469325
AB  - A Senate committee hearing received testimony on the implementation of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 in American Indian and Alaska Native tribal communities. The act provided authority for tribal governments to administer welfare programs formerly administered by the states but did not provide funds to develop the infrastructure to administer welfare programs. A panel of researchers from the General Accounting Office and elsewhere reported on an ongoing study of tribal welfare programs, focusing on economic conditions on Indian reservations; changes in the numbers of Indian welfare recipients since the law was enacted; how the law's flexibility has allowed recipients to engage in traditional subsistence activities and self-employment and pursue education and job training; and tribes' lack of administrative experience and necessary infrastructure, such as automated data systems. Written statements and testimony from Senators and representatives of various tribes, American Indian and Alaska Native organizations, and federal and state agencies discussed poverty and unemployment in Indian country, needs of tribal governments for administrator training and technical assistance, the need for financial assistance to develop small businesses, policy and governance problems in relationships between state and tribal programs, the need for "rural/frontier status" for isolated areas, inadequate funding to meet education and job training needs, needs for child care assistance, and descriptions of tribal welfare services. Many witnesses supported a proposed "American Indian Welfare Reform Act." (SV)

T1  - Responses of Listeria monocytogenes to acid stress and glucose availability monitored by measurements of intracellular pH and viable counts
AN  - 18334884; 5388550
AB  - Physiological aspects of the response of Listeria monocytogenes to acidic conditions and effect of glucose availability were studied by fluorescence ratio-imaging microscopy (FRIM) as compared with traditional viable counts. Three types of experiments were conducted: (i) static with measurements of intracellular pH (pH sub(i)) at extracellular pH (pH sub(o)) values ranging from pH 3.0 to 6.0 at 0.5 pH unit intervals; (ii) kinetic with monitoring of bacterial responses to changes in the pH sub(o) from the value of 6.0 to 4.0 or 3.0; (iii) survival experiments studying bacterial recovery in response to a shift to favourable conditions after a treatment at low pH. All the experiments were performed at three levels of glucose in the medium (0, 1, and 10 mM). Both survival and pH sub(i) were greatly affected by pH sub(o) and glucose availability with the highest values for CFU and pH sub(i) at highest glucose concentration and pH sub(o) values in the medium in all trials. A high correlation (R super(2) = 0.995) between pH sub(i) and CFU counts was observed. The pH gradient started to collapse at pH sub(o) 4 and below for trials with glucose in the medium and at pH sub(o) 5.5 and below without glucose. A recovery step was proposed after the apparently lethal treatment to assess cell viability by FRIM.

T1  - Toxicity of Bacillus thuringiensis insecticidal proteins for Helicoverpa armigera and Helicoverpa punctigera (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), major pests of cotton.
AN  - 72102588; 12234543
AB  - The susceptibilities of the major pests of cotton in Australia, Helicoverpa armigera and Helicoverpa punctigera, to some insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis were tested by bioassay. A commercial formulation, DiPel, and individual purified insecticidal proteins were tested. H. armigera was consistently more tolerant to B. thuringiensis insecticidal proteins than was H. punctigera, although both were susceptible to only a limited range of these proteins. Only Cry1Ab, Cry1Ac, Cry2Aa, Cry2Ab, and Vip3A killed H. armigera at dosages that could be considered acceptable. There was no significant difference in the toxicities of Cry1Fa and Cry1Ac for H. punctigera but Cry1Fa had little toxicity for H. armigera. The five instars of H. armigera did not differ significantly in their susceptibility to DiPel on the basis of LC(50). However, there were significant differences in the susceptibility to Cry1Ac and Cry2Aa of three strains of H. armigera. Bioassays conducted with Cry1Ac and Cry2Aa showed that there was a small but significant negative interaction between these delta-endotoxins.

T1  - DSM-IV axis II comorbidity with borderline personality disorder in monolingual Hispanic psychiatric outpatients.
AN  - 71686689; 12011613
AB  - The authors examined the comorbidity of DSM-IV borderline personality disorder (BPD) with other personality disorders (PD) in a series of adult monolingual (Spanish only) Hispanic psychiatric outpatients with substance use disorders. One hundred outpatients (69 men and 31 women) were assessed with the Spanish version of the Diagnostic Interview for DSM-IV Personality Disorders. PD co-occurrence in the group of patients with BPD (N = 34) was statistically compared with that in the group without BPD (N = 66). Bonferroni-corrected chi-square analysis showed significant diagnostic comorbidity with BPD for antisocial, avoidant, and depressive PD. However, analyses conducted separately by gender showed no significant comorbidity of any PD with BPD in women and significant comorbidity with antisocial, avoidant, and depressive PD in men. These results suggest that in monolingual Hispanic psychiatric outpatients with substance use disorders, gender may play a role in the nature of BPD comorbidity. The BPD diagnosis may represent a broader range of psychopathology in Hispanic men than women.

T1  - Focused microwave phased array thermotherapy for primary breast cancer
AN  - 21053558; 8596453
AB  - Background: A pilot safety study of focused microwave phased array thermotherapy in the treatment of primary breast carcinomas was conducted. Methods: Ten patients with breast carcinomas beneath the skin surface that ranged in maximal clinical size from 1 to 8 cm (mean, 4.3 cm) were treated with the breast compressed in the prone position. We planned to deliver a tumor thermal dose equivalent to 60 minutes at 43 degree C. Breast imaging and pathology data were used to assess efficacy. Results: For the 10 patients, the mean tumor equivalent thermal dose was 51.7 minutes, the mean peak tumor temperature was 44.9 degree C, and the mean treatment time was 34.7 minutes. Ultrasound imaging demonstrated a significant reduction in tumor size (mean, 41%) 5 to 18 days after thermotherapy in 6 (60%) of 10 patients. A significant tumor response on the basis of reduction in tumor size or significant tumor cell kill occurred in 8 (80%) of 10 patients. Conclusions: With sufficient skin cooling, delivery of focused microwave phased array thermotherapy is safe in treating breast carcinomas when used alone, and some potential efficacy was demonstrated at the tumor thermal doses administered. Increased tumor thermal dose efficacy studies in larger patient populations for improved breast conservation should be investigated.

AB  - A population-based case-control design was employed to quantify the risk of injury after consumption of alcohol as a function of setting, concurrent activity and usual drinking habits. A total of 797 cases (66.6% men) and 797 controls (57.7% women) were interviewed. The response rate was 83% for eligible cases approached for an interview. Cases were injured patients from a hospital emergency department. Community controls used were each paired with a case on suburb of residence, and interviewed regarding their activities in the 6-hour period preceding their paired case's injury. Self-reported alcohol consumption was consistent with both medical records and breath-analyzer tests. Drinking any alcohol and using prescribed medication in the prior 6 hours were both associated with significantly increased risk of injury when controlling for demographic and setting variables. Use of illicit drugs (mainly cannabis) was associated with reduced risk of injury. Setting (e.g., recreational, work) and activity (e.g., sport, travel, work) variables were also independently associated with risk of injury. The risk of injury for women was significantly elevated for any consumption of alcohol; for men it was elevated only when consumption exceeded 90 grams. These data confirm earlier findings that risk of injury for women for a given level of consumption is greater than for men. They extend earlier findings by identifying significant setting, activity and drug use variables predictive of injury. In addition, when these latter variables are controlled, it is found that for women, but not for men, the risk of injury is significantly elevated even at low levels of alcohol intake.

T1  - A Study of Female Mexican Anthropometric Measures Useful for Workstation Design in Light Manufacturing Facilities
AN  - 18422858; 5404450
AB  - As more and more manufacturing is moved to Mexico, the need for anthropometric data describing the Mexican working population becomes more pronounced. The purpose of this study was to obtain data on 21 anthropometric measures that could readily be used to design workplaces in light manufacturing operations. Eighty-seven females, representing 26% of the plant's employees, were sampled. Measurements were made with the shoes on. The mean stature (height) and elbow heights of this sample were 156 cm and 97 cm. Another recently published survey of female factory workers near the U.S. border included 12 anthropometric dimensions. Five of the dimensions were measured in both studies. Hand lengths were nearly identical; however, the 2 to 3 cm differences in the heights measured in the current study are consistent with the incorporation of the footwear in the current measurements. Thus, this study adds to the growing database that can be used when designing these light manufacturing jobs in Mexico.

T1  - Proteolytic Activity of YibP Protein in Escherichia coli
AN  - 18375112; 5367386
AB  - Escherichia coli YibP protein (47.4 kDa) has a membrane-spanning signal at the N-terminal region, two long coiled-coil regions in the middle part, and a C-terminal globular domain, which involves amino acid sequences homologous to the peptidase M23/M37 family. A yibP disrupted mutant grows in rich medium at 37 degree C but not at 42 degree C. In the yibP null mutant, cell division and FtsZ ring formation are inhibited at 42 degree C without SOS induction, resulting in filamentous cells with multiple nucleoids and finally in cell lysis. Five percent betaine suppresses the temperature sensitivity of the yibP disrupted mutation. The mutant has the same sensitivity to drugs, such as nalidixic acid, ethidium bromide, ethylmethane sulfonate, and sodium dodecyl sulfate, as the parental strain. YibP protein is recovered in the inner membrane and cytoplasmic fractions, but not in the outer membrane fraction. Results suggest that the coiled-coil regions and the C-terminal globular domain of YibP are localized in the cytoplasmic space, not in the periplasmic space. Purified YibP has a protease activity that split the substrate s-casein.

T1  - A tracer budget quantifying soil redistribution on hillslopes after forest harvesting
AN  - 18331431; 5382248
AB  - Managing the impacts of erosion after forest harvesting requires knowledge of erosion sources; rates of sediment transport and storage; as well as losses from the system. We construct a tracer-based ( super(137)Cs) sediment budget to quantify these parameters. The budget shows significant redistribution, storage and transport of sediment between landscape elements and identifies the snig tracks and log landings as the major impact sites in the catchment. Annual sediment losses from them were estimated to be 25 plus or minus 11 and 101 plus or minus 15 t ha super(-1) year super(-1), respectively, however, it is probable that most of this is due to mechanical displacement of soil at the time of harvesting. The budget showed greatest net transport of material occurring from snig tracks; representing some 11 plus or minus 4% of the super(137)Cs budget. Of the latter amount, 18%, 28% and 43% was accounted for within the cross banks, filter strip and General Harvest Area (GHA), respectively. The super(137)Cs budget also showed the GHA to be a significant sediment trap. The filter strip played a fundamental role in the trapping of material generated from the snig tracks, the mass delivery to them from this source was calculated to be 1.7 plus or minus 0.6 kg m super(2) year super(-1). Careful management of these remains critical. Overall we could account for 97 plus or minus 10% of super(137)Cs. This retention suggests that (within errors) the overall runoff management system of dispersing flow (and sediment) from the highly compacted snig tracks, by cross banks, into the less compacted (and larger area) GHA and filter strips has effectively retained surface soil and sediment mobilised as a result of harvesting at this site.

T1  - Does Soil Moisture Influence Climate Variability and Predictability over Australia?
AN  - 1665490593; 5374190
AB  - Interannual variations of Australian climate are strongly linked to the El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon. However, the impact of other mechanisms on prediction, such as atmosphere-land surface interactions, has been less frequently investigated. Here, the impact of soil moisture variability on interannual climate variability and predictability is examined using the Bureau of Meteorology Research Centre atmospheric general circulation model. Two sets of experiments are run, each with five different initial conditions. In the first set of experiments, soil moisture is free to vary in response to atmospheric forcing in each experiment according to a set of simple prognostic equations. A potential predictability index is computed as the ratio of the model's internal variability to its external forced variability. This estimates the level of predictability obtained assuming perfect knowledge of future ocean surface temperatures. A second set of five experiments with prescribed soil moisture is performed. A comparison between these two sets of experiments reveals that fluctuations of soil moisture increase the persistence, the variance, and the potential predictability of surface temperature and rainfall. The interrelationship between these two variables is also strongly dependent upon the soil water content. Results are particularly marked over Australia in this model. A novel feature of this study is the focus on the effectiveness of ENSO-based statistical seasonal forecasting over Australia. Forecasting skill is shown to be crucially dependent upon soil moisture variability over the continent. In fact, surface temperature forecasts in this manner are not possible without soil moisture variability. This result suggests that a better representation of land-surface interaction has the potential to increase the skill of seasonal prediction schemes.

Joint Hearing before the Committee of Government Management, Restructuring, and the District of Columbia Subcommittee of the Committee on Governmental Affairs, United States Senate and the Subcommittee on Government Efficiency, Financial Management, and Intergovernmental Relations of the Committee on Government Reform, House of Representatives, One Hundred Seventh Congress, Second Session.
AN  - 62161801; ED480619
AB  - Noting the significant increase since 1990 in food-borne illnesses affecting school children, these hearings transcripts provide testimony on the safety of federal school lunches. Statements by Senator Richard Durbin and Representatives Stephen Horn, Janice Schakowsky, and Carolyn Maloney emphasized the array of federal agencies with various food safety responsibilities, food safety agencies' inability to mandate food recalls, and the need for better cooperation and communication between the Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Representative Rosa DeLauro discussed findings of unsanitary conditions and unsafe food handling practices in Chicago area schools, recordkeeping flaws preventing officials from tracing food contamination to its source, the need to consolidate and streamline the number of federal agencies/committees responsible for protecting food, and the need to give the USDA and FDA authority to conduct mandatory recalls. General Accounting Office testimony recommended making schools aware of federal inspection and compliance records of potential food suppliers and described USDA and FDA measures to protect the food supply from deliberate contamination. Officials from the FDA and USDA described their respective roles in ensuring food safety and procedures for responding to illness outbreaks. An official of the Center for Science in the Public Interest discussed gaps in the food safety system and urged passage of the Durbin-DeLauro Safe Food Act. Two parents from a food safety advocacy group testified about their childrens food-borne illnesses, urged trace-back capability and accountability, advocated a single food safety agency, and maintained that overemphasizing consumer education misdirects responsibility for food safety from producers to consumers. Counsel for the National Food Processors Association asserted that mandatory recall is unnecessary because of industry cooperation with federal recall requests and maintained that a single food safety agency is not likely to provide the kinds of benefits proposed. Questions for witnesses related to interagency cooperation and communication, bioterrorism possibilities, specific incidents of foodborne illnesses and the followup investigations, USDA guidance to districts regarding procurement procedures, and concerns about due process. Appended to the transcripts are prepared statements, letters, and charts illustrating the school lunch supply chain and food safety oversight responsibilities. (KB)

T1  - Legal Issues Related to Proposed Drilling for Oil and Gas in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
AN  - 14634859; 10628565
AB  - Congress is currently weighing whether to permit oil and gas drilling in the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR), AK. ANWR-related proposals to date and pertinent legal issues are analyzed. The no significant adverse effect standard used in both H.R. 4 and S. 388 could allow a range of effects before protection would be triggered. New leasing and environmental regulations would be developed and mineral leases sold on an accelerated schedule without new environmental impact studies. H.R. 4 contains a 2000 acreage limit on the development footprint in the coastal plain, but this limit would not apply to all Native American lands.

T1  - Benthic macrofauna in Tasmanian estuaries: scales of distribution and relationships with environmental variables
AN  - 18401236; 5380045
AB  - Information on the distribution of species richness, faunal density, biomass and estimated productivity of benthic invertebrates in Tasmanian estuaries was quantified at a variety of spatial and temporal scales to assess general hypothesis relating community metrics to such environmental variables as salinity, seagrass biomass and sediment particle size. An associated aim was to assess appropriate scales of investigation for soft-sediment biota distributed in estuaries, including whether patterns identified at individual sites, estuaries, tidal levels or times are likely to have more general relevance. Faunal biomass and productivity varied principally at between-estuary (10 to 1000 km) and replicate-sample (1 m) scales, indicating that these two community metrics were largely responding to estuary-wide effects, such as nutrient loading, and to microhabitat features, rather than to locality characteristics at intermediate scales such as salinity, anoxia or sediment particle size. By contrast, faunal density showed greater response to tidal height (1 to 100 m) and to factors distributed at the locality scale within estuary (10 km) than to factors between estuary. Both faunal density and species richness in estuaries declined over three- and fivefold ranges down the shore from high water mark to the shallow sublittoral, while estimated productivity and biomass showed highest overall levels at low water mark. The greatest component of variance in species richness was associated with tidal height, with variance then distributed approximately evenly between other spatial scales examined. At the low-tide and shallow subtidal levels, species richness, faunal biomass and estimated productivity were all highly correlated with salinity and biomass of macrophytes, whereas faunal density was highly correlated with biomass of macrophytes only. Relationships between environmental and biological variables examined were poorly defined at high tidal levels. Seasonal plus interannual variance was much lower than spatial variance--a clear indication that sampling effort in studies would generally be better directed across a range of localities than for a single locality to be repeatedly investigated over time.

T1  - Diet and ovarian cancer risk: a case - control study in China
AN  - 18403363; 5386876
AB  - This case-control study, conducted in Zhejiang, China during 1999-2000, investigated whether dietary factors have an aetiological association with ovarian cancer. Cases were 254 patients with histologically confirmed epithelial ovary cancer. The 652 controls comprised 340 hospital visitors, 261 non-neoplasm hospital outpatients without long-term diet modifications and 51 women recruited from the community. A validated food frequency questionnaire was used to measure the habitual diet of cases and controls. The risks of ovarian cancer for the dietary factors were assessed by adjusted odds ratios based on multivariate logistic regression analysis, accounting for potential confounding demographic, lifestyle, familial factors and hormonal status, family ovarian cancer history and total energy intake. The ovarian cancer risk declined with increasing consumption of vegetables and fruits but vice versa with high intakes of animal fat and salted vegetables. The adjusted upper quartile odds ratio compared to the lower quartile was 0.24 (0.1-0.5) for vegetables, 0.36 (0.2-0.7) for fruits, 4.6 (2.2-9.3) for animal fat and 3.4 (2.0-5.8) for preserved (salted) vegetables with significant dose-response relationship. The risk of ovarian cancer also appeared to increase for those women preferring fat, fried, cured and smoked food.

T1  - Hospital waste management and it's probable health effect: a lesson learned from Bangladesh.
AN  - 72911587; 14503385
AB  - A study was conducted to evaluate the current status of hospital waste management (HWM) in Bangladesh. The aim is to recognize the health effect of the existing practice, to determine the awareness level of doctors and nurses about hospital waste, to identify the weaknesses, and to provide suggestions for improvement. Hospital staff, waste pickers, and local residents were interviewed while in depth field observation, which included sample collection and laboratory analysis was also conducted. Through this investigation, it has been quite evident that a satisfactory hospital waste management system in government hospitals and several private clinics is severely lacking. At present, Bangladesh has no rigorous laws or regulation, which are enforced in this area. The waste is generally dumped together in a public place such as the hospital surroundings, the roadside or City Corporation dustbin. Many doctors and nurses are not fully aware about what constitutes as medical waste. Health care workers have only a basic understanding of health care and do not perceive handling or disposal of medial waste as a hazardous work. Laboratory analysis shows existing contamination of infectious agents in the environment. Some staff members interviewed were suffering from various kinds of infectious diseases such as viral hepatitis B/C, typhoid, skin disease/allergy, diarrhea, dysentery, tuberculosis, and malaria. During field observation it was discovered that improved HWM systems have only recently been introduced in a small number of private hospitals and clinics, some of which could be used as references to formulate guidelines for reaching the optimal at the national level. The study indicates that there is a need to improve the handling and disposal methods of hospital waste in almost all the available medical facilities. There are a few NGOs that have started awareness building and training on waste management for selected hospital staff and NGO officials. Based on the analysis of the situation, several suggestions and recommendations have been made to aid in the development of a waste management system.

T1  - Evidence for oil-induced oxidative stress to larvae of the lightbrown apple moth, Epiphyas postvittana Walker (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae).
AN  - 71620833; 11975180
AB  - For the purpose of understanding better the mode of action of alkanes on insects, the relationship between mortality, weight loss in oxygen enriched atmospheres and dietary antioxidants was examined using an alkane, C15 Ampol CPD and a spray oil, C23 DC-Tron NR, on lightbrown apple moth, Epiphyas postvittana Walker, (LBAM). The results showed that the surfactant blend used in CPD was an insignificant contributor to the overall toxicity of dilute oil/water emulsions. Higher weight loss occurred in CPD-dipped larvae than C23 DC-Tron NR-dipped larvae, which suggests that alkanes disrupt tracheal waxes and render insects more prone to desiccation. High levels of oxygen increased the toxicity of CPD to LBAM larvae. In addition, dietary supplements of anti-oxidant, alpha-tocopherol, fed to LBAM larvae were successful in reducing the toxicity of CPD. These results suggest that the alkane may contribute to oxidative injury. The potential role of oil-induced oxidative stress in acute and chronic toxicity in insects is discussed.

T1  - Picrotoxin-induced generalised convulsive seizure in rat: changes in regional distribution and frequency of the power of electroencephalogram rhythms.
AN  - 71597849; 11956004
AB  - It is unknown how generalised discharges in primary generalised epilepsy (PGE) develop from background brain electrical activity or how widespread these discharged are throughout the brain. Here we address this by determining which neural structures and rhythms lead to and participate in generalised discharges in the picrotoxin rat model of PGE.
          Rats with chronically implanted electrodes were infused with picrotoxin until a seizure occurred. This process we refer to as acute epileptogenesis. The electroencephalogram (EEG) was recorded and spectral analysis applied off-line to determine changes in the spectral power of contributing frequencies in 13 brain regions. Two types of generalised discharge occurred, spindles and seizure, which were present in all brain regions studied. None of the frequencies (1-100 Hz) were significantly increased in background EEG before either spindles or seizure. Within the generalised discharges, power changes revealed significant increases in 6-8 Hz, most powerful in ventrolateral thalamus and neocortex. Gamma frequencies were increased significantly in neocortical structures during spindles with further increases in most structures at seizure onset. 1 Hz was significantly increased in parietal cortex during spindles with differential increases at seizure onset.
          We conclude that gamma, 1 and 6-8 Hz frequencies do not appear to contribute to picrotoxin epileptogenesis but do play a role in generalised seizures. The distribution of these frequencies during discharges suggests that the spindles are thalamocortical events and that the seizure is a cortical event with downstream effects on other brain regions.

T1  - Efficacy and safety of a new vaginal contraceptive antimicrobial formulation containing high molecular weight poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate).
AN  - 71533307; 11906905
AB  - Host cell infection by sexually transmitted disease (STD)-causing microbes and fertilization by spermatozoa may have some mechanisms in common. If so, certain noncytotoxic agents could inhibit the functional activity of both organisms. High molecular mass poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (T-PSS) may be one of these compounds. T-PSS alone (1 mg/ml) or in a gel (2% or 5% T-PSS) completely prevented conception in the rabbit. Contraception was not due to sperm cytotoxicity or to an effect on sperm migration. However, T-PSS inhibited sperm hyaluronidase (IC(50) = 5.3 microg/ml) and acrosin (IC(50) = 0.3 microg/ml) and caused the loss of acrosomes from spermatozoa (85% maximal loss by 0.5 microg/ml). T-PSS (5% in gel) also reduced sperm penetration into bovine cervical mucus (73% inhibition by 1 mg gel/ml). T-PSS (5% in gel) inhibited human immunodeficiency virus (HIV; IC(50)= 16 microg gel/ml) and herpes simplex viruses (HSV-1 and HSV-2; IC(50) = 1.3 and 1.0 microg gel/ml, respectively). The drug showed high efficacy against a number of clinical isolates and laboratory strains. T-PSS (5% in gel) also inhibited Neisseria gonorrhea (IC(50) 5 g/kg (rat). Gel with 10% T-PSS did not irritate the skin or penile mucosa (rabbit) and caused no dermal sensitization (guinea pig). Vaginal administration of the 5% T-PSS gel to the rabbit for 14 consecutive days caused no systemic toxicity and only mild (acceptable) vaginal irritation. T-PSS in gel form is worthy of clinical evaluation as a vaginal contraceptive HIV/STD preventative.

T1  - Examining Material Culture through American Memory.
AN  - 62291835; ED464014
AB  - This publication contains teaching ideas generated by classroom teachers. For grades K-5, newsletter editor Laurel R. Singleton explains how students can explore the quilt as a metaphor used in literature to represent American values and ideals (the lesson is adaptable for all age groups). For grades 5-8, social studies teacher Claire McCaffery Griffin has students examine play scripts, baseball cards, sheet music, and more. For grades 9-12, teachers Charlie Flanagan and Nancy Fitch describe how they use American Memory to teach about the 1876 Philadelphia Exposition as public history. In the feature article, "Using an Ansel Adams Photograph of Manzanar as a Primary Source," historian/educator Laura Mitchell models the careful analysis of Adams's photograph of the maternity ward at Manzanar's (California) hospital, a health facility at a World War II Japanese internment camp. The "Tech Tip" section contains "When Things Go Wrong." (BT)

T1  - Good Start, Grow Smart: The Bush Administration's Early Childhood Initiative.
AN  - 62286032; ED465461
AB  - In his State of the Union Address delivered January 2002, President Bush outlined the next critical step in education reform: to prepare children to read and succeed in school with improved Head Start and early childhood development programs. This report describes early childhood as a critical time for children to develop the physical, emotional, social, and cognitive skills they will need for the rest of their lives and presents the components of the Good Start, Grow Smart early childhood initiative of the Bush Administration. The three major areas addressed in the initiative are described: (1) strengthening Head Start through a new accountability system and a national training program; (2) partnering with states to improve early childhood education through the development of quality criteria for early childhood education to align the programs with K-12 state standards; and (3) providing information to teachers, caregivers, and parents through public awareness campaigns and through support of research to identify effective prereading and language curricula and teaching strategies.

T1  - Statutory Exemptions for Religious Freedom
AN  - 60142115; 200217651
AB  - Discusses the constitutional dialogues between the three branches of the US government & between the government & its citizens in forging statutory exemptions for religious freedom. Congress & state legislatures have, on hundreds of occasions, legislated more secure protections to religious practices, as allowed by the Free Exercise & Establishment Clauses, than have been provided by judicial decisions. Lawmakers have passed statutory accommodations consistent with constitutional principles on measures regarding military service, use of chaplains, wearing of religious apparel in the military, tax exemptions for churches, exemptions from Social Security, discrimination & labor laws, animal slaughter, & the use of peyote in religious ceremonies. The courts have upheld such efforts to balance the needs of government against the religious beliefs of many minority religions. Thus, the maintaining of religious liberties has been the work of private citizens, legislators, & executive officials as well as the responsibility of judges. L. A. Hoffman

T1  - Groundwater flow and solute transport at the Mourquong saline-water disposal basin, Murray Basin, southeastern Australia.
AN  - 27161004; 200210-34-0675 (CE); 05747803 (EN)
AB  - Saline groundwater and drainage effluent from irrigation are commonly stored in some 200 natural and artificial saline-water disposal basins throughout the Murray-Darling Basin of Australia. Their impact on underlying aquifers and the River Murray, one of Australia's major water supplies, is of serious concern. In one such scheme, saline groundwater is pumped into Lake Mourquong, a natural groundwater discharge complex. The disposal basin is hydrodynamically restricted by low-permeability lacustrine clays, but there are vulnerable areas in the southeast where the clay is apparently missing. The extent of vertical and lateral leakage of basin brines and the processes controlling their migration are examined using (1) analyses of chloride and stable isotopes of water ( super(2)H/ super(1)H and super(18)O/ super(16)O) to infer mixing between regional groundwater and lake water, and (2) the variable-density groundwater flow and solute- transport code SUTRA. Hydrochemical results indicate that evaporated disposal water has moved at least 100 m in an easterly direction and that there is negligible movement of brines in a southerly direction towards the River Murray. The model is used to consider various management scenarios. Salt-load movement to the River Murray was highest in a "worst-case" scenario with irrigation employed between the basin and the River Murray. Present-day operating conditions lead to little, if any, direct movement of brine from the basin into the river. [Foreign Abstract: Les eaux souterraines salees et les effluents de drainage de l'irrigation sont stockes dans environ 200 bassins naturels ou artificiels destines a retenir les eaux salines dans tout le bassin de Murray-Darling, en Australie. Leur impact sur les aquiferes sous-jacents et sur la riviere Murray, l'une des principales ressources en eau d'Australie, constitue un probleme grave. Dans une telle situation, les eaux souterraines salines sont pompees dans le lac Mourquong, complexe dans lequel les nappes se dechargent naturellement. le bassin de stockage est isole hydrodynamiquement par des argiles lacustres de faible permeabilite, mais il existe des zones vulnerables au sud-est, la ou les argiles sont apparemment absentes. L'importance des fuites verticales et laterales des saumures du bassin et les processus controlant leur migration ont ete etudies au moyen (1) d'analyses de chlorures et des isotopes stables de l'eau ( super(2)H/ super(1)H et super(18)O/ super(16)O) pour definir le melange entre les eaux souterraines regionales et l'eau du lac, et (2) du code SUTRA d'ecoulement souterrain et de transport de solute d'eaux de densites variables. Les resultats hydrochimiques indiquent que l'eau de stockage evaporee s'est introduite d'au moins 100 m vers l'est et qu'il existe un ecoulement negligeable de saumures vers le sud, en direction de la riviere Murray. le modele permet de considerer differents scenarios de gestion. L'ecoulement des eaux salees vers la riviere Murray etait le scenario le pire du fait de l'irrigation qui est appliquee entre le bassin de stockage et la riviere Murray. Les conditions actuelles de fonctionnement produisent un ecoulement direct faible, sinon nul, des saumures du bassin vers la riviere. Additional abstract: Las aguas subterraneas salinas y los retornos de riego se almacenan habitualmente en unas 200 balsas naturales y artificiales de deshechos, situadas a lo largo de la Cuenca de los rios Murray- Darling (Australia). Su impacto en los acuiferos y en el propio rio Murray, que actua como una de las fuentes principales de abastecimiento de agua en Australia, es un asunto preocupante. En uno de estos lugares, las aguas subterraneas salinizadas son bombeadas al lago Mourquong, que es un complejo natural de descarga del acuifero. La balsa de eliminacion esta revestida con arcillas lacustres de baja permeabilidad, pero hay areas vulnerables hacia el sudeste, donde parece no haber arcilla. Se examina el alcance de la precolacion vertical y lateral de las salmueras contenidas en la balsa y de los procesos que controlan su migracion por medio de (1) analisis de cloruros e isotopos estables del agua ( super(2)H/ super(1)H y super(18)O/ super(16)O), con el fin de determinar la mezcla entre las aguas subterraneas regionales y las lacustres, y (2) el codigo numerico SUTRA, que permite modelar flujo de densidad variable y transporte de solutos. Los resultados hidroquimicos indican que el agua evaporada se ha desplazado al menos 100 m hacia el Este y que no hay un movimiento apreciable de la salmuera hacia el rio Murray, situado al Sur. Se emplea el modelo para considerar varios escenarios de gestion. La carga de sal hacia el rio Murray es mayor en el escenario "mas negativo", que incluye irrigacion entre la balsa y el propio rio. Las condiciones actuales de funcionamiento llevan a un pequeno (si existe) movimiento de la salmuera desde la balsa hasta el rio.]

T1  - Environmental justice and regional inequality in southern California: implications for future research.
AN  - 21291727; 11702276
AB  - Environmental justice offers researchers new insights into the juncture of social inequality and public health and provides a framework for policy discussions on the impact of discrimination on the environmental health of diverse communities in the United States. Yet, causally linking the presence of potentially hazardous facilities or environmental pollution with adverse health effects is difficult, particularly in situations in which diverse populations are exposed to complex chemical mixtures. A community-academic research collaborative in southern California sought to address some of these methodological challenges by conducting environmental justice research that makes use of recent advances in air emissions inventories and air exposure modeling data. Results from several of our studies indicate that communities of color bear a disproportionate burden in the location of treatment, storage, and disposal facilities and Toxic Release Inventory facilities. Longitudinal analysis further suggests that facility siting in communities of color, not market-based "minority move-in," accounts for these disparities. The collaborative also investigated the health risk implications of outdoor air toxics exposures from mobile and stationary sources and found that race plays an explanatory role in predicting cancer risk distributions among populations in the region, even after controlling for other socioeconomic and demographic indicators. Although it is unclear whether study results from southern California can be meaningfully generalized to other regions in the United States, they do have implications for approaching future research in the realm of environmental justice. The authors propose a political economy and social inequality framework to guide future research that could better elucidate the origins of environmental inequality and reasons for its persistence.

T1  - Segregation and black/white differences in exposure to air toxics in 1990.
AN  - 21283294; 11702278
AB  - I examined non-Hispanic Black and non-Hispanic White differences in exposure to noncriteria air pollutants in 44 U.S. Census Bureau-defined metropolitan areas with populations greater than one million, using data on air toxics concentrations prepared for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as part of its Cumulative Exposure Project combined with U.S. census data. I measured differences in exposure to air toxics through the calculation of a net difference score, which is a statistical measure used in income inequality analysis to measure inequality over the whole range of exposures. The scores ranged from 11.52 to 83.60. In every metropolitan area, non-Hispanic Blacks are more likely than non-Hispanic Whites to be living in tracts with higher total modeled air toxics concentrations. To assess potential reasons for such a wide variation in exposure differences, I performed a multiple regression analysis with the net difference score as the dependent variable. Independent variables initially included were as follows: the dissimilarity index (to measure segregation), Black poverty/White poverty (to control for Black/White economic differences), population density and percentage of persons traveling to work who drive to work (alone and in car pools), and percentage of workforce employed in manufacturing (factors affecting air quality). After an initial analysis I eliminated from the model the measures of density and the persons driving to work because they were statistically insignificant, they did not add to the predictive power of the model, and their deletion did not affect the other variables. The final model had an R(2) of 0.56. Increased segregation is associated with increased disparity in potential exposure to air pollution.

T1  - Environmental justice: building a unified vision of health and the environment.
AN  - 21267827; 11702275
AB  - The assorted and multidimensional concerns that give rise to the issue of environmental justice have proved to be intellectually daunting and highly resistant to positive change. Low-income, people of color, and tribal communities confronting environmental stressors are beset by stressors in both the physical and social environments. For this reason, while the bifurcation of the public health and environmental fields taking place over the past several decades has yielded generally negative impacts in areas of public health, environment, and planning, the consequences for low-income and disadvantaged communities have been especially grievous. This commentary builds on the recent Institute of Medicine workshop titled "Rebuilding the Unity of Health and the Environment: A New Vision of Environmental Health for the 21st Century." The workshop organizers posited that only by thinking about environmental health on multiple levels will it be possible to merge various strategies to protect both the environment and health. In this commentary we examine how such a new vision of uniting public health and the environment can contribute to attaining environmental justice for all populations.

T1  - Different slopes for different folks: socioeconomic and racial/ethnic disparities in asthma and hay fever among 173,859 U.S. men and women.
AN  - 21258132; 11704127
AB  - Although allergic diseases such as asthma and hay fever are a major cause of morbidity in industrialized countries, most studies have focused on patterns of prevalence among children and adolescents, with relatively few studies on variations in prevalence by race/ethnicity and socioeconomic position among adults. Our study examined racial/ethnic and socioeconomic patterns in the prevalence of asthma overall, asthma with hay fever, asthma without hay fever, and hay fever overall, in a population of 173,859 women and men in a large prepaid health plan in northern California. Using education as a measure of socioeconomic position, we found evidence of a positive gradient for asthma with hay fever with increasing level of education but an inverse gradient for asthma without hay fever. Hay fever was also strongly associated with education. Compared with their White counterparts, Black women and men were more likely to report asthma without hay fever, and Black women were less likely to have asthma with hay fever. Asian men were also more likely to report asthma with hay fever, and Asian women and men were much more likely to have hay fever. Racial/ethnic disparities in prevalence of allergic diseases were largely independent of education. We discuss implications for understanding these social inequalities in allergic disease risk in relation to possible differences in exposure to allergens and determinants of immunologic susceptibility and suggest directions for future research.

T1  - Algae River: an extensive drainage system in the Bunger Hills, East Antarctica
AN  - 18914838; 5466391
AB  - An extensive terrestrial drainage system, centred on Algae Lake in southern Bunger Hills, is described. The 25-km-long Algae River is the third longest known in Antarctica after Onyx River (Wright Valley, Victoria Land) and Druzhby River (Vestfold Hills, Queen Elizabeth Land). Algae River receives meltwater from the Antarctic ice sheet, Apfel Glacier, and ephemeral and permanent snow banks in the ice-free area of the Bunger Hills. Water flows through a series of epiglacial lakes before reaching the extensive Algae Lake, which in turn has an outlet to Transkriptsii Gulf, a largely fresh-water, tidal epishelf lake connected to the ocean under the Edisto Ice Tongue and Shackleton Ice Shelf. Total flow from Algae Lake was estimated to be greater than 1 x 10 super(7) m super(3) a super(-1) from data collected in the 1986/87 summer. Some portions of the drainage system that were flowing during the 1946/47, 1985/86, 1986/87, 1994/95, 1995/96, and 1998/99 summers were not flowing during the 1999/2000 summer, indicating the variable nature of discharge in the river and emphasising that parts of the drainage network may become disconnected readily.

T1  - Body mass variation in Marbled Murrelets in British Columbia, Canada
AN  - 18835358; 5422845
AB  - Body mass was measured in Marbled Murrelets Brachyramphus marmoratus from May to August, 1994-1998 at Desolation Sound, and during June and July 1997 at Mussel Inlet, British Columbia, Canada, to assess seasonal, sexual, site and intra-annual variation. Birds were captured by mist-net, and by night-lighting, and were sexed using molecular techniques. The breeding status of females (gravid or not) in 1997 was determined from plasma levels of egg-yolk precursors. Adult males weighed 203.7 plus or minus 14.8 g, n = 495 (juveniles 166.6 plus or minus 28.8 g, n = 31) and females weighed 201.2 plus or minus 20.5 g, n = 344 (juveniles 148.3 plus or minus 23.5 g, n = 20). Murrelets caught in mist-nets were significantly lighter than those caught by night-lighting. Female mass was constant across years of the study, but males caught by night-lighting were heavier in 1998 than in 1997. Females declined in mass during the egg-laying period, but when gravid females were removed from the analysis, or when the post-laying data were analyzed, no declines were found. Marbled Murrelets appear to maintain mass at a constant level all season, and are probably more income than capital breeders. Variation in body mass in this species may be constrained by the need to fly with speed and agility to avoid aerial predators.

T1  - Extent of invasion of Tasmanian native vegetation by the exotic bumblebee Bombus terrestris (Apoidea: Apidae)

AB  - Observations of the large earth bumblebee, Bombus terrestris (L.), in native vegetation were collated to determine the extent to which this exotic species has invaded Tasmanian native vegetation during the first 9 years after its introduction. The range of B. terrestris now encompasses all of Tasmania's major vegetation types, altitudes from sea level to 1260 m a.s.l., and the entire breadth of annual precipitation in the state from more than 3200 mm to less than 600 mm. Observations of workers carrying pollen, together with the presence of large numbers of bumblebees at many localities across this range indicate that colonies are frequently established in native vegetation. Evidence that colonies are often successful was obtained from repeated observations of the species during more than 1 year at particular sites. Unequivocal evidence of colonies was obtained from six National Parks, including four of the five in the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area (WHA). Indeed, the species has been present in the WHA for at least as long as it has in the city of Hobart, where it was first recorded. In south- western Tasmania, evidence of colonies was obtained up to 40 km from gardens, 61 km from small towns and 93 km from large towns. Hence, contrary to previous suggestions, the species is established in the most remote parts of Tasmania and is not dependent on introduced garden plants. Given their strong record of invasion, it is likely that B. terrestris will form feral populations on the mainland of Australia and in many other parts of the world if introduced. Because of their likely negative impacts on native animals and plants, and potential to enhance seed production in weeds, the spread of bumblebees should be avoided.

T1  - Extraction of Cereal Prolamins and their Toxicity in Coeliac Disease
AN  - 18441232; 5416161
AB  - Simple extraction of prolamins from cereal flour using 70% aqueous ethanol leads to co-extraction of lipids and other secondary products. Treatment of the crude extract with an excess of pure ethanol resulted in the removal of the majority of these compounds. Prolamin extracts obtained following ethanol precipitation showed little difference to products of more complex, multi stage, selective extractions, when compared using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Toxicity tests on enzymic digests of ethanol-precipitated prolamins from coeliac-toxic cereals, coeliac-non-toxic cereals and oats were carried out using a rat liver lysosome assay. The prolamins from the ethanol-precipitated extracts showed greater activity than those extracted using only 70% ethanol for extraction. As the ethanol precipitation method is simple and provides a prolamin extract of sufficient purity for further evaluation, this procedure has been adopted as an alternative to more tedious procedures for preparation of cereal prolamins.

T1  - Distribution and Biodiversity of Australian Tropical Marine Bioinvasions
AN  - 18433777; 5411072
AB  - Marine invasions have been identified in virtually all regions of the world, yet relatively few introductions have been detected in the Tropics. This has been attributed at least in part to an increase in intrinsic native community resistance at lower latitudes resulting from strongly interacting food webs in high(er) diversity systems. However, recent evidence from surveys in Australia and elsewhere indicate that tropical systems are also susceptible to invasions, though detection ability may be constrained by taxonomic limitations. Preliminary analyses of data from surveys designed to detect introduced species do not support a pattern of decreased invasion success in higher diversity systems but do indicate a strong latitudinal gradient at the mesoscale of Australia. This cannot be attributed to disparities in search effort (controlled for by consistency in survey effort) or taxonomic knowledge. The original hypothesis of a decreased relative susceptibility of tropical versus temperate biota to invasions may remain viable, but be scale dependent. Additional confounding factors may include differing vector strengths and availability of source bioregions.

T1  - Simulation of lethal control and fertility control in a demographic model for Brandt's vole Microtus brandti
AN  - 18409515; 5394598
AB  - 1. Brandt's vole Microtus brandti is considered a pest in China and is actively managed through the use of toxic baits. A time-dependent density-dependent Leslie matrix model was developed to investigate the effectiveness of fertility control as an alternative. 2. Three annual cycles of Brandt's vole were observed between 1995 and 1998 at a site in the grasslands of Inner Mongolia, China. For each of these cycles, cohort-specific monthly survival rates were derived for the spring, summer and autumn months. Over the breeding season, monthly reproductive rates were obtained as numbers of young females per adult female. 3. Survival of voles over winter, a 5-6-month period, depended on age at the onset of winter and the density in autumn. 4. The model was parameterized with measured and continuously varying monthly data for vital rates. It was then used to predict the impact that fertility control, delivered with non-toxic baits, and lethal control would have had on the vole population if control had been imposed in the autumn of 1994 or spring of 1995. The timing and frequency of bait delivery were varied, and we considered the population response to bait that renders females sterile and bait that renders females only temporarily infertile. 5. The model suggested that the effectiveness of lethal control in spring could be matched by fertility control if it was applied twice in the spring of a year in which high densities were reached, or in the previous autumn. The latter requires that (i) infertility is long-lasting in treated animals and (ii) either high-density years be reliably forecast a year ahead or fertility control be applied every autumn. 6. Brandt's voles provide an exception to the general rule that fertility control is never more effective than lethal control applied at the same time with the same bait uptake. We found that when control was applied in autumn, fertility control was better than lethal control in reducing the numbers of voles over the following spring, summer and autumn. This is because normal density-dependent mortality over winter has a greater impact following fertility control than lethal control.

T1  - Soil carbon stocks and land use change: a meta analysis
AN  - 18393686; 5380771
AB  - The effects of land use change on soil carbon stocks are of concern in the context of international policy agendas on greenhouse gas emissions mitigation. This paper reviews the literature for the influence of land use changes on soil C stocks and reports the results of a meta analysis of these data from 74 publications. The meta analysis indicates that soil C stocks decline after land use changes from pasture to plantation (-10%), native forest to plantation (-13%), native forest to crop (-42%), and pasture to crop (-59%). Soil C stocks increase after land use changes from native forest to pasture (+ 8%), crop to pasture (+ 19%), crop to plantation (+ 18%), and crop to secondary forest (+ 53%). Wherever one of the land use changes decreased soil C, the reverse process usually increased soil carbon and vice versa . As the quantity of available data is not large and the methodologies used are diverse, the conclusions drawn must be regarded as working hypotheses from which to design future targeted investigations that broaden the database. Within some land use changes there were, however, sufficient examples to explore the role of other factors contributing to the above conclusions. One outcome of the meta analysis, especially worthy of further investigation in the context of carbon sink strategies for greenhouse gas mitigation, is that broadleaf tree plantations placed onto prior native forest or pastures did not affect soil C stocks whereas pine plantations reduced soil C stocks by 12-15%.

T1  - Development of a simple and sensitive fluorimetric method for isolation of coumaphos-hydrolysing bacteria
AN  - 18384953; 5362553
AB  - Aims: To develop a simple, rapid and sensitive fluorimetric assay to detect, isolate and characterize a soil bacterium capable of degrading the organophosphorus pesticide, coumaphos. Methods and Results: A high throughput microtitre plate-based method was used to quantify coumaphos hydrolysis by the bacterium. The fluorescent hydrolysis product of coumaphos, chlorferon, was detected at levels as low as 10 nmol l super(-1) . Incorporation of coumaphos into agar plates allowed the rapid detection of coumaphos-hydrolysing bacteria when exposed to an excitation wavelength of approximately 340 nm. The coumaphos-hydrolysing enzyme could be visualized when bacterial cell extracts were separated on SDS-PAGE, incubated with coumaphos and exposed to an excitation source as above. Conclusions: This method is 100-fold more sensitive than the currently used spectrophotometric method for coumaphos. Significance and Impact of the Study: This is a unique and versatile tool to screen for bacteria possessing phosphotriesterase activity.

T1  - The BMRC Coupled General Circulation Model ENSO Forecast System
AN  - 18368910; 5353487
AB  - An El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) prediction system with a coupled general circulation model and an ocean data assimilation scheme has been developed at the Australian Bureau of Meteorology Research Centre (BMRC). The coupled model consists of an R21L9 version of the BMRC climate model and a global version of the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory modular ocean general circulation model with resolution focused in the tropical region and 25 vertical levels. A univariate statistical interpolation method, with 10-day data ingestion windows, is used to assimilate ocean temperature data and initialize the coupled model. The coupling procedure does not use any flux corrections. Hindcasts have been carried out for the period 1981-95 for each season (60 in all), for up to a lead time of 12 months. This paper will describe these initial experiments and show that the skill of sea surface temperature (SST) hindcasts in the tropical Pacific is comparable to other published coupled models. The skill of the model is strongest in the central Pacific. SST skill tends to be lower during the earlier 1990s than during 1980s in the eastern Pacific but not in the central Pacific. Since the ENSO SST anomaly in the central Pacific is the most important forcing of regional and global climate anomalies, the high SST prediction skill and its insensitivity over the hindcast period in this region in this model give grounds for optimism in the use of coupled general circulation models.

T1  - Responses of Listeria monocytogenes to Acid Stress and Glucose Availability Revealed by a Novel Combination of Fluorescence Microscopy and Microelectrode Ion-Selective Techniques
AN  - 18300397; 5350079
AB  - Fluorescence ratio imaging microscopy and microelectrode ion flux estimation techniques were combined to study mechanisms of pH homeostasis in Listeria monocytogenes subjected to acid stress at different levels of glucose availability. This novel combination provided a unique opportunity to measure changes in H super(+) at either side of the bacterial membrane in real time and therefore to evaluate the rate of H super(+) flux across the bacterial plasma membrane and its contribution to bacterial pH homeostasis. Responses were assessed at external pHs (pH sub(o)) between 3.0 and 6.0 for three levels of glucose (0, 1, and 10 mM) in the medium. Both the intracellular pH (pH sub(i)) and net H super(+) fluxes were affected by the glucose concentration in the medium, with the highest absolute values corresponding to the highest glucose concentration. In the presence of glucose, the pH sub(i) remained above 7.0 within a pH sub(o) range of 4 to 6 and decreased below pH sub(o) 4. Above pH sub(o) 4, H super(+) extrusion increased correspondingly, with the maximum value at pH sub(o) 5.5, and below pH sub(o) 4, a net H super(+) influx was observed. Without glucose in the medium, the pH sub(i) decreased, and a net H super(+) influx was observed below pH sub(o) 5.5. A high correlation (R = 0.75 to 0.92) between the pH sub(i) and net H super(+) flux changes is reported, indicating that the two processes are complementary. The results obtained support other reports indicating that membrane transport processes are the main contributors to the process of pH sub(i) homeostasis in L. monocytogenes subjected to acid stress.

T1  - Formation and maintenance of discrete wild rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) population systems in arid Australia: Habitat heterogeneity and management implications
AN  - 17667773; 5654843
AB  - The wild rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus L.) is a significant pest in arid and semi-arid Australia, where erratic rainfall and irregular pasture growth cause population sizes to oscillate, increasing virtually without limit and then crashing during drought conditions. Vacant habitat patches can be rapidly recolonized from nearby patches in high rainfall years. Using two adjoining rabbit population systems in arid and semi-arid southwest Queensland, this study evaluates patterns of population differentiation and proposes a mechanism that may lead to the formation of multiple rabbit population systems in the same locality. Using the combined haplotype frequency data from both a local and regional study, estimates of genetic exchange among local populations are considered in conjunction with ecological data to evaluate the significance of habitat attributes (and their spatial distribution) on the local distribution of rabbit populations, both within and between two adjacent population systems. A tentative model is proposed to explain the observed differences in population structure between the two adjoining systems. Under this model, population structure at specific locations is determined primarily by the availability of areas suitable for prolonged colonization and the quality of the intervening habitat that dictates the degree of isolation between locations and therefore the probability of recolonization following local extinctions. It is also suggested that the current rabbit distribution may be a function of the flexibility of behavioral responses in rabbits to the level of spatial heterogeneity of favorable habitats within the two regions.

T1  - Arsenic in Drinking Water: Recent Regulatory Developments and Issues
AN  - 14644385; 10637937
AB  - EPA issued a revised standard for arsenic in drinking water of 5 ppb in June 2000 and projected that compliance could be costly for small communities. The final rule set the standard at 10 ppb, and public water systems were given until 2006 to meet the new standard. The National Research Council concluded that while studies for improving the accuracy of As risk assessment are still needed, recent analyses indicate that the risks of cancer incidence are greater than previously thought. The EPA rule became effective in February 2002, and EPA and the US Congress are now focusing on how to help communities achieve compliance by 2006.

T1  - Environmental Injustice and the Mississippi Hog Industry
AN  - 14619117; 10623740
AB  - Geographic information systems and sociodemographic data for census block groups were used to examine the association between the location of industrial swine operations and their proximity to non-White and poor communities in Mississippi. The swine operations were identified from the Department of Environmental Quality, and data on race and poverty were gleaned from the 1990 Census Summary Tape file. Subsequently, logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios for the impacts of race and poverty on the presence of confined agricultural feeding operations, with adjustment for population density. The results are presented in the form of maps, which show that many of the hog confined agricultural feeding operations are located in block groups with greater than 22% African American population. Most of the operations were also distributed in areas with greater than 22% persons in poverty. Using low African American, low-poverty areas as the referent group, results from logistic regression showed that there were 2.84 times as many concentrated feeding operations in high African American, low-poverty block groups and 2.68 times as many in high-poverty, low African American block groups.

T1  - Assessment of Personal and Community-Level Exposures to Particulate Matter Among Children with Asthma in Detroit, Michigan, as Part of Community Action Against Asthma (CAAA)
AN  - 14619056; 10623738
AB  - Community Action Against Asthma (CAAA), which is a field-based, community-based participatory research project, is aimed at gaining an increased understanding of the environmental and psychosocial triggers for asthma in children's homes and neighborhoods. The project is being conducted in neighborhoods on the east side and in the southwest portion of Detroit, MI. Measurements have been made of pulmonary function and indoor and outdoor levels of particulate matter (PM), and the children also wore personal exposure monitors each day to characterize their exposure to PM sub(10). The results from the first year of study indicate that the level of fine PM in the two study communities exceeds the National Ambient Air Quality Standard of 15 mu g/m super(3) for PM sub(2.5). In addition, indoor levels of PM, even in nonsmoking homes, were found to be 1.52 times higher than the outdoor levels.

T1  - Is the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Brownfields Assessment Pilot Program Environmentally Just?
AN  - 14618767; 10623747
AB  - EPA's Brownfields Assessment Demonstration Pilot program was implemented in Bridgeport, CT; Richmond, VA; and Cleveland, OH, in the earlY 1990s and has now expanded to more than 300 states, cities, towns, counties, and Native American tribes. Grants are awarded to communities to meet the goals of trying to link brownfields redevelopment to community revitalization and pollution-prevention programs. Interested cities apply to EPA, and the agency then applies competitive criteria to select cities for grants. A descriptive and a comparative statistical analysis was conducted of the EPA brownfields pilot cities. Data were collected that provided a picture of how pilot cities differed from other places in terms of race and ethnicity, family structure, socioeconomic status, health, and housing. The variables used in each analysis are tabulated. The findings indicated that EPA brownfields pilot cites differed from other cities, including those of a similar population size in the same state, their home states, and the nation as a whole. The pilot cities were more distressed; their residents were less educated; home ownership was lower; and their unemployment rates were higher, median household incomes were lower, and poverty rates were higher. The program was found to have distributed funds in a way that was consistent with an effort to address environmental justice issues.

T1  - Community Involvement in the Ethical Review of Genetic Research: Lessons from American Indian and Alaska Native Populations
AN  - 14617849; 10623734
AB  - Some of the benefits and challenges of involving communities directly in the ethical review of genetic research are explored, focusing on research with American Indian and Alaska Native communities. Subsequently, a research agenda is proposed to develop best practices for consulting local communities regarding the ethical conduct of epidemiologic and environmental health research. The focus of the analysis is on ways to anticipate and assess the significance of group harms, as existing regulatory policies and ethical guidelines concentrate on immediate risks to individual study participants, ignoring in most instances the potential harms to nonparticipants. One way of overcoming the problem is to concentrate on involving community representatives at the earliest possible stage in the research process. Also important will be assessments of how various social, religious, economic, cultural, and political communities view risks associated with research, a better understanding of the goals of involving community representatives in the review of research, and enlightened assessment of research-related harms to communities.

T1  - Examining Urban Brownfields Through the Public Health Macroscope"
AN  - 14617627; 10623739
AB  - Brownfields in southeast Baltimore, MD, were evaluated by tracing the historic operations of 182 vacant industrial sites. Each was screened for hazard potential using hazard identification information, chemical persistence data, and the physical characteristics of the site. The data were used to rank the brownfields using scores specific to substance, site, and census tract. Subsequently, log-linear models were used to evaluate health status across brownfield zones. The top substances associated with brownfield sites were found to include lead, PCBs, nickel, chromium, copper compounds, iron compounds, phthalates, toluene diisocyanate, and naphthalene. The two highest ranking tracts contained approximately 66% of all the brownfield sites considered in the analysis. Communities living in the highest brownfields zone experienced statistically higher mortality rates due to cancer, lung cancer, respiratory diseases, and major causes of death than communities living in low brownfields zones.

T1  - Community-Based Participatory Research as a Tool to Advance Environmental Health Sciences
AN  - 14617561; 10623736
AB  - NIEHS has established innovative initiatives aimed at bridging the gap between environmental researchers and community residents. This community-based participatory research concept is outlined through six guiding principles: promote active collaboration and participation at every stage of research; foster co-learning; ensure projects are community-driven; disseminate results in useful terms; ensure research and intervention strategies are culturally appropriate; and define community as a unit of identity. Each is examined, and the benefits of such community-based participatory research to scientists and to communities are highlighted.

T1  - Unequal Exposure to Ecological Hazards: Environmental Injustices in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
AN  - 14616988; 10623751
AB  - Demographic data from the 1990 US Census and data collected in 2000 throughout Massachusetts were used to analyze the exposure rates of all 351 cities and towns in the state to environmentally hazardous facilities and sites. Each of the communities was classified by class and racial composition. The findings suggested that low-income communities faced a cumulative exposure rate to environmentally hazardous facilities and sites that was 3.134.04 times greater than for all other communities in the state. A similar, but even more significant, finding was noted for high-minority communities. Such unequal exposure to hazardous-waste sites, landfills and transfer stations, polluting industrial facilities, power plants, incinerators, and cumulative environmental hazards is examined. Subsequently, recommendations are proposed to ensure environmental justice in the state.

T1  - Lead Sources, Behaviors, and Socioeconomic Factors in Relation to Blood Lead of Native American and White Children: a Community-Based Assessment of a Former Mining Area
AN  - 14616933; 10623744
AB  - In Ottawa County, OK, located in one of the world's largest lead and zinc mining areas, differences in blood Pb and residential Pb source distributions were examined for rural Native American and White children. Qualified local residents were hired to work as phlebotomists, interviewers, canvassers, and project coordinators. Behavioral, socioeconomic, and demographic data were collected via in-home interviews, and environmental assessments were conducted following HUD and EPA protocols. The blood Pb values ranged 124 mu g/dl. Soil and dust were common environmental sources of Pb in the homes of the sampled children, but there were no differences in blood Pb by race/ethnicity, and there were few significant ethnic differences in environmental Pb sources. Statistical analysis revealed that blood Pb was correlated most strongly with mean floor dust Pb loading and with soil Pb. Significant interactions were noted between soil Pb and poverty and between dust and soil Pb sources.

T1  - Combining Community-Based Research and Local Knowledge to Confront Asthma and Subsistence-Fishing Hazards in Greenpoint/Williamsburg, Brooklyn, New York
AN  - 14616476; 10623746
AB  - Two community-based organizations in the Greenpoint/Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, NY, are outlined. El Puente is a community organization with a long history of social justice organizing among Latino residents, and the Watchperson Project is a neighborhood watchdog, research, and advocacy organization. For El Puente, the health-survey research conducted around asthma is described, along with that conducted by the Watchperson Project to assess the risks from subsistence-fish diets. The experiences of the two organizations suggest that community knowledge is essential for understanding environmental hazards and for developing contextually relevant interventions to eliminate the hazards. The community-based processes were found to contribute not only to local action for improving the lives of community members, but also extend the work of conventional science.

T1  - Do Mexican Americans Perceive Environmental Issues Differently Than Caucasians: a Study of Cross-Ethnic Variation in Perceptions Related to Water in Tucson
AN  - 14616071; 10623754
AB  - Water contamination is a serious issue for Mexican Americans living in Tucson, AZ, due to poverty and lower education levels. In this study, the perceptions and participatory actions of Mexican Americans and Caucasians were compared in terms of water quality and environmental inequity. A cross-sectional telephone survey was conducted of Tucson residents. The criterion variables included level of public participation, perceived risk and perceived efficacy of risk reduction, perceived environmental and social inequity, and institutional trust. Results suggested that ethnicity strongly influenced participation in civic activities irrespective of income, education, and length of residence. Mexican Americans demonstrated significantly higher perceptions of water quality-related risks only when the socioeconomic variables of income, education, and length of residence were not considered. Caucasians participated in significantly more public activities than Mexican Americans; Caucasians were significantly less trusting in groups than Mexican Americans; and Mexican Americans perceived significantly more inequity and racism toward their ethnic group than Caucasians.

T1  - Hey, Mom, Thanks!": Use of Focus Groups in the Development of Place-Specific Materials for a Community Environmental Action Campaign
AN  - 14616017; 10623749
AB  - Five strategies have been proposed for preventing and reducing the risk of exposure to environmental hazards for children living in the Harlem and Washington Heights neighborhoods of New York City. They include: keep homes free of tobacco smoke; provide children with a balanced diet; ask health professionals about children's exposure to lead; keep cockroaches and rodents out of apartments; and get involved in the Clean Air Campaign. The strategies were tested and refined in a series of focus groups with women from the communities, and data from the focus groups were used to develop place-specific campaign materials for a community-wide social action campaign. The process by which researchers identified and tested the relevancy of the five strategies is discussed, citing data from the 14 focus groups as context for the development of the campaign.

T1  - Mapping Environmental Injustices: Pitfalls and Potential of Geographic Information Systems in Assessing Environmental Health and Equity
AN  - 14615947; 10623737
AB  - Selected issues that are contested in mapping environmental injustice, and the technical and analytic difficulties encountered in such projects are outlined. This is achieved through an analysis of 13 geographic information system (GIS)-based environmental equity studies conducted over the past 10 yr. The issues examined include: the ability to predict injustice by race or class, the identification of actual hazards, the determination of exposure potential, the measurement of exposure, and the geographic unit of analysis to be applied. The analysis reveals that, while refinements in GIS-based environmental equity research have been made over time, conclusive spatial correlations have yet to be reached. The potential of GIS for environmental health and equity research is promising, however, allowing the integration of modeling and statistical software, the construction of better data bases, the development of exposure indices, and better identification of the geographic extent of exposure from hazardous facilities.

T1  - Pesticide Safety Among Farmworkers: Perceived Risk and Perceived Control as Factors Reflecting Environmental Justice
AN  - 14615859; 10623745
AB  - Data collected as part of the Preventing Agricultural Chemical Exposure among North Carolina Farmworkers project were used to examine issues of farmworker perceived pesticide safety risk and perceived pesticide safety control. The data were used to derive perceived pesticide risk and perceived pesticide control scales. Results indicated that 2030% of the workers did not perceive pesticides to be a risk to them or their families, and few of the workers felt that they had a great deal of control over reducing their exposure to pesticides. Increased access to pesticide safety information, however, was associated with lower mean perceived pesticide risk scores and with higher perceived pesticide control scores. The results demonstrated that pesticide safety for farmworkers is an environmental justice concern.

T1  - From Asthma to AirBeat: Community-Driven Monitoring of Fine Particles and Black Carbon in Roxbury, Massachusetts
AN  - 14615621; 10623753
AB  - The AirBeat project is described, which is a real-time air-monitoring system that measures levels of PM sub(2.5), black carbon, and ozone and reports the data through a website, telephone hotline, and flag warning system. The project was initiated in Roxbury, MA, a city with high asthma rates and other respiratory illnesses related to air pollution. The objectives of the project are outlined, as are the communication venues and community education. The community-based research project has been successful to date for two main reasons: relationships were established that were equitable from the start; and community ownership of the project was promoted through community outreach and education.

T1  - Holistic Risk-Based Environmental Decision Making: a Native Perspective
AN  - 14614996; 10623748
AB  - In the Mohawk territory of Akwesasne, local residents, environmental organizations, and community leaders have mounted a strong response to the environmental degradation of their lands and waters. While the effort has proceeded for more than 25 yr, risk assessment methods used by outside investigators remain inadequate, as the methods fail to account for or include a holistic approach for assessing the social, cultural, and spiritual values that link the Mohawks to their environment. The sociocultural implications of exposure to contaminants among Native Americans are considered, noting the different languages, cultures, and world views that present real barriers to effective communication. A new paradigm for holistic risk-based decision-making is proposed.

T1  - Deteriorated Housing Contributes to High Cockroach Allergen Levels in Inner-City Households
AN  - 14613655; 10623756
AB  - Childhood asthma is associated with low-income, minority status and with characteristics of the home environment. Here, links between cockroach allergen levels and selected housing characteristics, especially the amount and type of disrepair, are examined. The data used were gleaned from a larger cohort study from the Columbia University Children's Environmental Health Center. Demographic, residential, and lifestyle information was collected by a questionnaire during the third trimester of pregnancy, and dust samples were collected separately from the kitchen and beds of 132 pregnant women. Results showed that 68% of the study sample reported the presence of cockroaches in their homes, and the proportion of sightings increased significantly with the number of physical housing problems. Associations between self-report and allergen dust levels were significant among Dominican and African American women. After adjusting for the effects of income, ethnicity, and pest-control measures, the degree of disrepair and housing instability were both significantly associated with cockroach allergen levels in the kitchen.

T1  - Awareness of Environmental Risks and Protective Actions Among Minority Women in Northern Manhattan
AN  - 14613620; 10623750
AB  - Results are presented from a survey of 555 adult women living in northern Manhattan, New York City, which examined their knowledge of environmental risks to health and methods for protecting themselves and their families. Overall awareness of environmental risks to children's health was high for all respondents, with most identifying lead, household pesticides, environmental tobacco smoke, and drugs as most harmful. The data showed the effectiveness of an extensive public-health campaign that has been conducted in the community. With the exception of air pollution, the majority of women took protective actions to reduce the risks of exposure to Pb, household pests, pesticides, and tobacco smoke, but the actions varied greatly.

AB  - EPA regulatory initiatives implemented during the last decade to curb air pollutant emissions at coal-fired power plants are reviewed. These initiatives include the Ozone Transport Rule and a set of enforcement actions based on New Source Review requirements of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 that resulted in lawsuits against seven utilities. The separate initiatives each ultimately focus on emissions from utilities in the south and midwest. As of January 2001, EPA delcared 11 states and the District of Columbia as failing to submit revised state implementation plans required under the O sub(3) Transport Rule.

T1  - Implications of a nested stochastic/deterministic bio-economic model for a pelagic fishery
AN  - 1665485544; 5378799
AB  - Use is made of an economically optimal feedback rule to determine optimal levels of exploitation of a pelagic fish species. Data from the southern bluefin tuna fishery for the years 1960-1996 are utilised to apply this rule to aggregated deterministic and stochastic models of population dynamics. Comparison of the rule-based results with historical records indicates that over much of the period the fishery was economically overexploited and a harvesting moratorium could have been imposed to improve economic returns from the fishery and to allow stock recovery.

T1  - Global Climate Change: U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions-Status, Trends, and Projections
AN  - 14636022; 10628685
AB  - Under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, the US committed to the voluntary goal of holding greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions at the end of the 1990s to their 1990 levels. If the US had met this goal, GHG emissions for 2000 would have been 1647 million metric tons of carbon equivalents (MMTCE), but emissions in 1999 were 1840 MMTCE. In rejecting the Kyoto Protocol, the Bush Administration has proposed that the US shift its climate change goal to a reduction in GHG intensity of the economy. A continuing increase in US GHG emissions is projected, even with implementation of C sequestration schemes and energy-efficient technologies.

T1  - Superior laryngeal nerve identification and preservation in thyroidectomy.
AN  - 85363432; pmid-11886347
AB  - Injury to the external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve (EBSLN) can result in detrimental voice changes, the severity of which varies according to the voice demands of the patient. Variations in its anatomic patterns and in the rates of identification reported in the literature have discouraged thyroid surgeons from routine exploration and identification of this nerve. Inconsistent with the surgical principle of preservation of critical structures through identification, modern-day thyroidectomy surgeons still avoid the EBSLN rather than identifying and preserving it.To describe the anatomic variations of the EBSLN, particularly at the junction of the inferior constrictor and cricothyroid muscles; to propose a systematic approach to identification and preservation of this nerve; and to define the identification rate of this nerve during thyroidectomy.A retrospective review of thyroid lobectomies and total thyroidectomies performed between 1978 and 1997 was carried out. A total of 884 patients were included, with 1057 EBSLNs explored. Intraoperative findings of identification of the EBSLN were recorded and compared on an annual basis for both benign and malignant disease. Overall results were also compared with those found in previous series identified through a 50-year literature review.The 3 anatomic variations of the distal aspect of the EBSLN as it enters the cricothyroid were encountered and are described. The total identification rate over the 20-year period was 900 (85.1%) of 1057 nerves. Operations performed for benign disease were associated with higher identification rates (599 [86.1%] of 696) as opposed to those performed for malignant disease (301 [83.4%] of 361). Operations performed in recent years have a higher identification rate (over 90%).Understanding the 3 anatomic variations of the distal portion of the EBSLN and its relation to the inferior constrictor muscle allows for high rates of identification of this nerve. The EBSLN should be explored during thyroid surgery and identification is possible in most cases. Preservation of the EBSLN maintains optimal function of the larynx.

T1  - Analysis of aggregate exposure to chlorpyrifos in the NHEXAS-Maryland investigation.
AN  - 21344435; 7674318
AB  - As part of the National Human Exposure Assessment Survey (NHEXAS) in Maryland, we collected indoor air, carpet dust, exterior soil, and duplicate diet samples from a stratified random sample of 80 individuals to evaluate aggregate daily exposure, contributions of specific pathways of exposure, and temporal variation in exposure to chlorpyrifos. We collected samples from each participant in up to six equally spaced sampling cycles over a year and analyzed them for chlorpyrifos. We used chlorpyrifos concentrations in each medium and self-reported rates of time spent inside at home, time and frequency of contact with carpet, frequency of contact with soil, and weights of the duplicate diet samples to derive exposure to chlorpyrifos from each medium as well as average daily aggregate exposure (nanograms per day). The mean aggregate daily exposure to chlorpyrifos of 36 measurements obtained from 31 people was 1,390 ng/day (SD, 2,770 ng/day). Exposure from inhalation of indoor air accounted for 84.7% of aggregate daily exposure to chlorpyrifos on average. Chlorpyrifos concentrations in indoor air and carpet dust and the corresponding exposure rates were significantly correlated. Repeated short-term measurements of chlorpyrifos in carpet dust from individual residences were strongly correlated over time (reliability coefficient, R = 0.90), whereas the short-term measurements of chlorpyrifos in indoor air (R = 0.55) and solid food (R = 0.03) had moderate to weak reliability. Exposure to chlorpyrifos through those media and in aggregate based on direct measurements reported in this study can be used to understand better the accuracy of pesticide safety assessments.

T1  - Odour Control and Treatment: Activated sludge diffusion as an odour control technique
AN  - 20931387; 8044520
AB  - A complication of chemical odour treatment arises from the fact that, in most cases, odours emanate from a variable mixture of gases rather than from single compounds, making chemical reactions for specific gases unreliable as control methods. Economic control of odours is best achieved by destroying the gases responsible as opposed to simply moving them from the gaseous phase to the liquid phase. A variety of systems can be employed for this purpose, but they mostly tend to involve the construction of a dedicated processing plant with its associated control systems and high capital costs. Many odorous sites do not justify such expenditure, particularly where the odours result from waste treatment processes. For wastewater treatment sites, activated sludge diffusion offers a low cost alternative. By collection of the odorous gas and its diversion into an activated sludge aeration basin, odours can be eliminated using relatively low cost technology.

T1  - The acute and chronic effects of wastes associated with offshore oil and gas production on temperate and tropical marine ecological processes
AN  - 20221939; 5373067
AB  - A review of the acute and chronic effects of produced formation water (PFW), drilling fluids (muds) including oil-based cutting muds, water-based cutting muds, ester-based cutting muds and chemical additives, and crude oils associated with offshore oil and gas production was undertaken in relation to both temperate and tropical marine ecological processes. The main environmental impacts are summarized, often in tabular form. Generally, the temporal and spatial scales of these studies, along with the large levels of inherent variation in natural environments, have precluded our ability to predict the potential long-term environmental impacts of the offshore oil and gas production industry. A series of critical questions regarding the environmental effects of the offshore oil and gas production industry that still remain unanswered are provided for future consideration.

T1  - Further recovery of Northeast Pacific neogastropods from imposex related to tributyltin contamination
AN  - 19723579; 5373075
AB  - Tributyltin (TBT) is a highly effective biocide that has been widely used in antifouling paints since the 1970s. Due to deleterious effects on non-target organisms, its use has been restricted in many countries. In 1989, Canada introduced legislation restricting the use of TBT to vessels over 25 m length, with exemptions for aluminium hulls and fittings. One of the most noted effects of TBT is the imposition of male characteristics, particularly a penis and vas deferens, on female neogastropod molluscs. This condition, called `imposex' has been observed in more than 140 species worldwide, and recognised as a suitable biomarker of TBT pollution. Field surveys and dose-response assays have established that imposex is strongly correlated to TBT exposure and uptake. Other factors have been suggested as possible causes of imposex such as environmental stress, acetic acid, copper, nonylphenol and compounds in bird excreta. However, most of these factors are hypothetical or have not been replicated, so care needs to be taken in citing them as causative agents of imposex. There remains little doubt that TBT is the main cause of imposex in most species in which it has been described. Surveys of imposex have been widely used in the last decade to assess the effectiveness of legislation restricting the use of TBT. These have revealed conflicting results, some showing considerable recovery, others showing that TBT contamination is a continuing problem, particularly around ports and even in open waters.

T1  - Combined 3D-spectrofluorometry, high performance liquid chromatography and capillary electrophoresis for the characterization of dissolved organic matter in natural waters
AN  - 18913787; 5509653
AB  - 3D-spectrofluorometry, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and capillary electrophoresis (CE) were used to differentiate between marine and fresh water samples. These three techniques were used to obtain different patterns for marine and fresh waters, thus confirming that the organic materials they contain are different. The HPLC fractionation allowed the separation of different classes of dissolved organic matter (DOM) components. Their further analyses using both 3D spectrofluorometry and CE demonstrated that the isolated fractions were specific of the water origin. Furthermore, capillary electrophoresis was shown to have a considerable potential for fingerprinting and for a better characterisation of DOM of different origins.

T1  - Increased Levels of Inflammatory Mediators in Children and Adults Infected with Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139
AN  - 18469568; 5439533
AB  - Investigations were carried out to study the production of factors associated with the innate immune response in the systemic and mucosal compartments in adults and children infected with Vibrio cholerae O1 and V. cholerae O139. The levels of nonspecific mediators of the innate defense system, i.e., prostaglandin E sub(2) (PGE sub(2)), leukotriene B sub(4) (LTB sub(4)), and lactoferrin (Lf), as well as myeloperoxidase (MPO), were elevated at the acute stage of the disease in stools obtained from both O1- and O139-infected adults and children. In the systemic compartment, the levels of Lf were increased after onset of disease, which in children remained elevated up to convalescence compared to the healthy controls. Increased concentrations of C- reactive protein were seen in the sera of adult cholera patients at the acute stage of infection. Elevated levels of the nitric oxide (NO super(.)) metabolites (nitrite and nitrate (NO sub(2) super(-) and NO sub(3) super(-))) were detected in plasma but not in urine. The activity of the scavenger of reactive oxygen species, superoxide dismutase, was higher in the plasma of adults immediately after the onset of disease, suggesting that an active scavenging of reactive oxygen species was taking place. The concentration of 8-iso-prostaglandin F sub(2[alpha]) remained unchanged in the systemic and mucosal compartments in the study subjects. After the recovery of patients from cholera, the concentration of the majority of the metabolites decreased to baseline levels by day 30 after the onset of infection. Immunohistochemical staining showed increased tissue expression of MPO, Lf, and inducible nitric oxide synthase at the acute stage in the duodenal biopsies of adults and rectal biopsies obtained from children with cholera. Very little difference was seen in the levels of the different inflammatory mediators in patients infected with V. cholerae O1 or the encapsulated V. cholerae O139. In summary, these results suggest that elevated concentrations of Lf, MPO, PGE sub(2), LTB sub(4), and NO super(.), as well as other metabolites, during the acute stage of the disease indicate that the innate defense system, as well as the inflammatory process, is activated in both adults and pediatric patients infected with V. cholerae O1 and O139.

T1  - Aboriginal fires in monsoonal Australia from historical accounts
AN  - 18406702; 5391509
AB  - Traditional management of fire in the world's savannas is of vital interest for contemporary management. This paper reviews the nineteenth century literature on Aboriginal application of fire in the Northern Territory of northern Australia, and relates the other studies of the historical record for the whole savanna region of northern Australia. The aim is to provide a comprehensive picture of historical traditional fire practices. Northern Australia tropical (monsoonal) savanna region. All available journals of explorers in the nineteenth century in the Northern Territory were reviewed and analysed. Twenty-five explorers' journals were identified and reviewed. Fifteen yielded information on aboriginal use of fire. Two hundred and six observations were recorded in the journals. Of these, 100 were of active landscape fires and fifty-two were of burnt landscapes. Other observations were discarded as they did not contribute to the understanding of traditional use of fire. The results were generally consistent with other studies completed in Queensland and Western Australia. The historical record shows that Aboriginal people in the 'Top End' of the Northern Territory of Australia commenced burning early in the dry season, within weeks of the last rains, and continued throughout the dry season. Burning stopped only when the wet season rains prevented further burning. Little if any wet season burning was carried out. This picture is at variance with a previous historical study for the Northern Territory, but consistent with that for the whole northern Australian savannas using equivalent historical sources. The findings are important for ecological management of the savannas of northern Australia. Recent deleterious changes to the biota and landscape have been attributed to recent changes from traditional fire regimes. A reinstatement of traditional practices is proposed.

AB  - Our newly appointed Regional Administrator, Bob Varney, spoke at your September conference. In the short time I have this morning, I won't repeat what you heard from Bob, but I will update you on EPA's counter-terrorism efforts nationally and in the region. Though counter-terrorism has emerged as one of our top priorities, there are still many other program challenges before us and I'll summarize some of them to give you a flavor of what EPA is working on. And last, I'll conclude with some observations about the importance of and difficulties associated with effective communications.

T1  - Using genetic techniques to investigate the sources of the invasive alga Caulerpa taxifolia in three new locations in Australia
AN  - 18393308; 5373068
AB  - The invasive green alga Caulerpa taxifolia has gained a high profile due to `outbreaks' in the Mediterranean and California. During the year 2000 three new discrete locations colonised by abundant C. taxifolia were discovered in New South Wales (NSW), Australia. Sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the ribosomal DNA was used to explore the source(s) of these new records, which is an important prerequisite for subsequent environmental management responses. Our results indicate that the NSW C. taxifolia originated from several sources and, hence, through different invasion events. For two of the new records (Port Hacking, Careel Bay) it can be excluded that they are derived from the so-called "aquarium strain" of C. taxifolia, closely related to the invasive Mediterranean populations. Port Hacking is likely to have originated from tropical native populations. However, samples from Lake Conjola cannot be sufficiently distinguished with the applied technique from native C. taxifolia in Moreton Bay and the Mediterranean/"aquarium strain".

T1  - Trophic ecology of the mid-slope demersal fish community off southern Tasmania, Australia
AN  - 18366510; 5341274
AB  - The demersal fish community on the mid-slope off southern Tasmania in south-eastern Australia is dominated by orange roughy Hoplostethus atlanticus (Trachichthyidae), several species of oreosomatids, macrourids, squalids, alepocephalids and a synaphobranchid eel. Cluster analysis based on diet dissimilarities of proportional prey weight identified five major trophic guilds: pyrosome-feeders, crustacean feeders, piscivores, benthopelagic omnivores and benthic-invertebrate feeders. Overall, the fish fed predominantly on pelagic or benthopelagic prey, consistent with other trophic studies in the Australasian region and the Northern Hemisphere. H. atlanticus, warty dory Allocyttus verrucosus, and the macrourid Coryphaenoides serrulatus were benthopelagic omnivores that ate mesopelagic fishes, crustaceans and squid. The first two species ate more mesopelagic fishes as their sizes increased. The squalids were predominantly piscivorous but might also scavenge. Macrourids were benthic-invertebrate feeders, pelagic crustacean feeders or benthopelagic omnivores. The alepocephalids and the smooth oreo Pseudocyttus maculatus were pyrosome-feeders. No seasonal variation in diet was found for any species. Ecological indices varied within each guild. Benthopelagic omnivores and piscivores had the largest diet breadth, evenness and diversity. Trophic levels ranged from 3.0 for pyrosome-feeders to 4.9 for piscivores and the overall average for the community was 3.7.

T1  - Identification and Minisequencing-Based Discrimination of SHV beta -Lactamases in Nosocomial Infection-Associated Klebsiella pneumoniae in Brisbane, Australia
AN  - 18265578; 5319282
AB  - Extended-spectrum beta -lactamases (ESBLs) are active against oxyimino cephalosporins and monobactams. Twenty-one Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates obtained between 1991 and 1995 at the Princess Alexandra Hospital in Brisbane, Australia, were subject to amplification and sequencing of the SHV beta -lactamase-encoding genes. Thirteen strains were phenotypically ESBL positive. Of these, six strains carried the bla sub(SHV-2a) gene and seven strains carried the bla sub(SHV-12) gene. Eight strains were phenotypically ESBL negative. Of these, seven strains carried the non-ESBL bla sub(SHV-11) gene and one strain carried the non-ESBL bla sub(SHV-1) gene. There was complete correspondence between the ESBL phenotype and the presence or absence of an ESBL-encoding gene(s). In addition, it was determined that of the 13 ESBL-positive strains, at least 4 carried copies of a non-ESBL-encoding gene in addition to the bla sub(SHV-2a) or bla sub(SHV12) gene. A minisequencing-based assay was developed to discriminate the different SHV classes. This technique, termed "first-nucleotide change," involves the identification of the base added to a primer in a single-nucleotide extension reaction. The assay targeted polymorphisms at the first bases of codons 238 and 240 and reliably discriminated ESBL-positive strains from ESBL-negative strains and also distinguished strains carrying bla sub(SHV-2a) from strains carrying bla sub(SHV-12). In addition, this method was used to demonstrate an association between the relative copy numbers of bla sub(SHV) genes in individual strains and the levels of antibiotic resistance.

T1  - The role of colloidal particles in the speciation and analysis of "dissolved" phosphorus
AN  - 1665493139; 5364168
AB  - Colloidal-sized particles (1-1000 nm) and high molecular mass material play an important, yet poorly understood role in the aqueous speciation of P. This study assessed the size distribution of P in 0.45- mu m filtered soil solutions and soil-water extracts from three sandy soils (grassland, arable field and forest) using gel filtration chromatography (GFC) and membrane filtration (0.22- and 0.025- mu m pore-size) and evaluated the impact of P speciation on colorimetric and ion-chromatographic methods for orthophosphate analysis. Between 40% and 58% of molybdate reactive P (MRP) and > 85% of molybdate unreactive P in the soil solution from the agricultural soils (pH 5.9-6.3) were associated with high molecular mass material (apparent size > 0.025 mu m, or > 600 kDa on Superdex). In solutions from the forest soil (pH 3.2), high molecular mass P (HMMP) compounds were of minor importance (< 8% of TP). The GFC elution profiles, composition and spectral characteristics of HMMP-containing solutions as well as the small relevance of HMMP at low pH were all indicative for associations between humic substances, Fe and/or Al, and P. Both MRP and ion chromatographic P measurements overestimated the free orthophosphate concentration (up to 2.3- and 1.4-fold, respectively) in 0.45- mu m filtered HMMP-containing solutions. In 0.025- mu m filtrates, free orthophosphate was the only MRP species present.

T1  - Dispersion of Particles from Vehicle Emissions Around High- and Low-Rise Buildings
AN  - 16144771; 5581278
AB  - Understanding the distribution of outdoor pollutants around a building envelope, generated by sources located in its vicinity, is important when choosing the location of building ventilation system intakes, as well as for quantifying the exposure of people living or working in the building. A systematic experimental characterisation of the number concentration of submicrometre particles was undertaken around the envelope of six buildings (both low- and high-rise) at different distances from a road (the main pollution source). The concentrations were measured using two TSI Scanning Mobility Particle Sizers. PM sub(2.5) concentrations were also monitored around the low-rise buildings using two TSI DustTraks. For the three high rise buildings the concentration of fine and ultra-fine particles decreased in most cases to about 50-60% from the approximate ground level readings (between heights of 0 to 6 m), to full building height (from 24 to 33 m above the ground). Measurements of submicrometre particle number concentrations as well as PM sub(2.5) fraction in the envelope around low-rise isolated buildings did not show any significant trends from the front to the rear of the building. The sensitivity of PM sub(2.5) measurements to a small number of larger particles, possibly from sources other than vehicle emissions, was observed.

T1  - p-Nitrophenol degradation by activated sludge attached on nonwovens
AN  - 16139907; 5356163
AB  - p-Nitrophenol (PNP) is a toxic compound that enters the environment during manufacturing and processing of a variety of industrial products. This study demonstrates the use of inexpensive and durable nonwovens as a biomass retainer for the biological degradation of p-nitrophenol. An essential aspect of p-nitrophenol degradation was the cultivation of p-nitrophenol degrading biomass prior to its attachment on the nonwovens. Results of continuous flow experiments demonstrated that using the nonwovens could attain consistent high-rate p-nitrophenol degradation. 500 mg-PNP/L was completely degraded at a hydraulic retention time of 11 h. Specific and volumetric p-nitrophenol loading rates were determined to be 165 mg-PNP/g-MLSS/d and 1.6g-PNP/L/d, respectively. Nitrite released from p-nitrophenol breakdown was not completely nitrified to nitrate. Characteristics of p-nitrophenol degrading sludge were also investigated.

T1  - Molecular detection of Phomopsis taxa 1 and 2 in grapevine canes and buds
AN  - 1034826699; 17060814
AB  - DNA sequences, specific to each of the two taxa of Phomopsis (taxon 1 and taxon 2) that commonly infect grapevines in Australia, have been identified and cloned. The clones recognise a repeated sequence and both identify genetic variation. The taxon 2-specific marker identified five distinct banding patterns amongst twelve Phomopsis taxon 2 isolates obtained from five different geographical regions. The Phomopsis taxon 1-specific clone was used to detect the fungus in canes and unburst buds of grapevines that displayed symptoms of infection, visible in late winter as pycnidia on bleached canes. However, the fungus was also detected in canes and unburst buds from canes that were not bleached. In addition, perithecia of the sexual phase were observed on other unburst buds following incubation of canes. The results suggest that bleaching should not be used as an indicator of infection by Phomopsis taxon 1. Microscopic examination of infected, micropropagated grapevines showed that, similar to other Phomopsis species, taxon 1 grows subcuticularly in the stems. The specificity and high copy number of the taxon 1 and taxon 2 probes, together with a rapid DNA extraction method, provide the means for a sensitive assay for these fungi and for fundamental studies on the biology of two Phomopsis taxa that infect grapevine in Australia.

T1  - A process risk model for the shelf life of Atlantic salmon fillets
AN  - 18374060; 5357716
AB  - The shelf life of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) portions produced for retail distribution is examined and the dominant aerobic spoilage organism is identified. Characterization of the harvesting and processing operations allow the development of a stochastic mathematical model, a process risk model (PRM), which predicts the range of the possible shelf life for the portions under normal retail and distribution. The considered risk is the failure to achieve the nominal 'use by' date. Bacterial counts from surface swabs, water, ice, and fish samples, collected over a period of 9 months, are fitted to distribution functions for use within the model. Comparisons are made between the distributions fitted to the observed bacterial levels and the predicted levels for the slurry water, initial surface contamination on the fish, and for the predicted and observed shelf life. Storage temperature of the packaged salmon portions has the greatest influence on shelf life, with contamination from contact surfaces and other sources being the next most important. The range of bacterial counts on the portions was between - 0.6 and 5 log sub(10) cfu/cm super(2). The model predicts bacterial counts in the slurry water to have an average value of 3.36 log sub(10) cfu/ml, whereas the observed slurry water bacterial counts were 3.35 log sub(10) cfu/ml. The predicted average initial bacterial contamination is 3.31 log sub(10) cfu/cm super(2) on the fish surface and 3.23 log sub(10) cfu/cm super(2) on the observed. The average predicted shelf life is 6.5 days, compared to an observed value of 6.2 days at 4 degree C.

T1  - The Surface Layer (S-layer) Glycoprotein of Geobacillus stearothermophilus NRS 2004/3a: Analysis of its Glycosylation
AN  - 18265653; 5319109
AB  - Geobacillus stearothermophilus NRS 2004/3a possesses an oblique surface layer (S-layer) composed of glycoprotein subunits as the outermost component of its cell wall. In addition to the elucidation of the complete S-layer glycan primary structure and the determination of the glycosylation sites, the structural gene sgsE encoding the S-layer protein was isolated by polymerase chain reaction-based techniques. The open reading frame codes for a protein of 903 amino acids, including a leader sequence of 30 amino acids. The mature S-layer protein has a calculated molecular mass of 93,684 Da and an isoelectric point of 6.1. Glycosylation of SgsE was investigated by means of chemical analyses, 600-MHz nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry. Glycopeptides obtained after Pronase digestion revealed the glycan structure [ arrow right 2)- alpha -L-Rhap-(1 arrow right 3)- beta -L-Rhap-(1 arrow right 2)- alpha -L- Rhap- (1 arrow right ] sub(n = 13-18), with a 2-O-methyl group capping the terminal trisaccharide repeating unit at the non-reducing end of the glycan chains. The glycan chains are bound via the disaccharide core arrow right 3)- alpha -L-Rhap-(1 arrow right 3)- alpha -L-Rhap-(1 arrow right and the linkage glycose beta -D- Galp in O-glycosidic linkages to the S-layer protein SgsE at positions threonine 620 and serine 794. This S-layer glycoprotein contains novel linkage regions and is the first one among eubacteria whose glycosylation sites have been characterized.

T1  - Fuel Ethanol: Background and Public Policy Issues
AN  - 14634833; 10628573
AB  - Various aspects of fuel ethanol production and use in the US are addressed, including ethanol and the agricultural economy, fuel consumption, cellulosic feedstock R&D, costs and benefits of fuel ethanol, and policy concerns and congressional activity. The future of the US ethanol industry is uncertain due to the current debate over oxygenate requirements. Methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) has been found to contaminate groundwater, and characteristics of ethanol-blended reformulated gasoline, along with high prices and supply disruptions, are implicated in the elevated gasoline prices experienced in the Midwest during the summer of 2000. A ban on MTBE would expand the market for ethanol while elimination of the oxygenate requirement would remove a major stimulus for its use.

T1  - Sport Utility Vehicles, Mini-Vans and Light Trucks: an Overview of Fuel Economy and Emissions Standards
AN  - 14615174; 10622179
AB  - Most sport utility vehicles, mini-vans, and pickups in the US are classified as light trucks and are regulated less stringently than passenger cars under the 1975 Energy Policy and Conservation Act for fuel economy standards and the 1980 Clean Air Act Amendments for emissions standards. These vehicles have markedly increased their share of the new automobile market over the last decade and thus the share of total fuel consumption and emissions attributable to them has steadily increased. In response, EPA ruled that by model year 2009, emissions from all light trucks and passenger cars will be regulated equally, However, during FY1996-2001, provisions in the DOT annual appropriations prohibited the latter from changing fuel economy standards. The discrepancy between emissions and fuel economy standards for cars and light trucks is being considered by Congress.

An oversupply situation in 1999-2000 prompted USDA to bolster market prices that had fallen below effective price support levels. Agency efforts did not raise prices enough to enable processors to pay back all of their price support loans. Affected interest groups have sought to shape future sugar policy as Congress has considered a new multi-year farm bill.

T1  - Using artificial neural networks to model the suitability of coastline for breeding by New Zealand fur seals (Arctocephalus forsteri)
AN  - 20025080; 5369278
AB  - New Zealand fur seal (Arctocephalus forsteri) numbers and distribution were reduced by human exploitation but the species is now re-colonizing much of its former range. Pinnipeds occupy two different habitat media: the marine (feeding) and terrestrial (breeding) environments. Measures of geographic variation in both these environments can be modelled together to predict coastline suitability for colonization (i.e. potential availability of breeding sites). To avoid problems of non-linear modelling, we used an artificial neural network (ANN) to: (1) predict the suitability of coastline in South Island, New Zealand to support breeding A. forsteri colonies by creating a model using pup condition (measured from 20 breeding colonies during 1996-98), prey distribution and abundance, bathymetry, and the type of coastal substrate; (2) compare the predicted distribution of suitable coastline for colonization from the model to the current distribution of A. forsteri colonies (n = 198 colonies); and (3) using ANN inference rule extraction, determine which factors are the most influential in predicting coastline suitability. ANN model predictions overlapped current distributions of A. forsteri colonies in South Island. Inference rule extraction gave good predictions of colony performance (i.e. the ability to predict observed pup condition); however, they were not consistent among years in terms of the prey species constituting the rules or in the direction of the relationships. Arrow squid and octopus were important model terms in 1996 and 1997, but the direction of their coefficients in the inference rules were opposite between years. Hoki was an important term in 1997 and 1998, but it also varied in direction between years. Terms of secondary importance include the distance from sample colonies to 250 m-, 500 m- and 1000 m-isobaths.

T1  - Water Quality: Implementing the Clean Water Act
AN  - 14613191; 10621868
AB  - Issues in the forefront of implementation of the 1987 Clean Water Act are discussed. Implementation of requirements for states to develop total maximum daily loads to restore pollution-impaired waters is addressed, as are nonpoint pollution management provisions added in 1987. Most critics observe that implementation of such measures is hindered by lack of resources, including federal aid. Funding to construct municipal wastewater treatment plants under State Revolving Fund provisions is a continuing concern, due to budgetary constraints on attendant federal aid.

T1  - Dynamics of lysosomal cholesterol in Niemann-Pick type C and normal human fibroblasts.
AN  - 71529668; 11861661
AB  - The dynamics of endolysosomal cholesterol were investigated in Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) cells and in human fibroblasts treated with class 2 amphiphiles to mimic NPC cells. We showed through new approaches that the massive pools of endolysosomal cholesterol in these cells are not trapped but, rather, circulate to the cell surface at about the normal rate. This flux spared NPC and amphiphile-treated cells from disruption by the extraction of their plasma membrane cholesterol with cyclodextrin. Nocodazole, a microtubule-depolymerizing agent, reversed the resistance of NPC and U18666A-treated cells to cholesterol depletion, apparently by reducing the flux of endolysosomal cholesterol to the plasma membrane. Neither nocodazole nor bafilomycin A1 (an inhibitor of the vacuolar proton pump) acted in the same way as the NPC mutation or class 2 amphiphiles: both agents decreased plasma membrane cholesterol at the expense of the endolysosomal pool and both blocked the actions of the amphiphile, U18666A. Finally, the resistance of NPC cells to lysis by amphotericin B was shown not to reflect a reduction in plasma membrane cholesterol arising from a block in lysosomal cholesterol export but rather the diversion of the amphotericin B to cholesterol-rich endolysosomes. We conclude that the large pool of endolysosomal cholesterol in NPC and amphiphile-treated fibroblasts is dynamic and that its turnover, as in normal cells, is dependent on microtubules.

T1  - Drinking water contaminants and adverse pregnancy outcomes: a review.
AN  - 21260402; 11702271
AB  - Concern for exposures to drinking water contaminants and their effects on adverse birth outcomes has prompted several studies evaluating chlorination disinfection by-products and chlorinated solvents. Some of these contaminants are found to be teratogenic in animal studies. This review evaluates 14 studies on chlorination disinfection by-products such as trihalomethanes (THMs) and five studies on chlorinated solvents such as trichloroethylene (TCE). The adverse birth outcomes discussed in this review include small for gestational age (SGA), low birth weight, preterm birth, birth defects, spontaneous abortions, and fetal deaths. Because of heterogeneities across the studies in the characterization of birth outcomes, the assessment and categorization of exposures, and the levels and mixtures of contaminants, a qualitative review was conducted. Generally, the chief bias in these studies was exposure misclassification that most likely underestimated the risk, as well as distorted exposure-response relationships. The general lack of confounding bias by risk factors resulted from these factors not being associated with drinking water exposures. The studies of THMs and adverse birth outcomes provide moderate evidence for associations with SGA, neural tube defects (NTDs), and spontaneous abortions. Because fewer studies have been conducted for the chlorinated solvents than for THMs, the evidence for associations is less clear. Nevertheless, the findings of excess NTDs, oral clefts, cardiac defects, and choanal atresia in studies that evaluated TCE-contaminated drinking water deserve follow-up.

T1  - Perspectives on the chemical etiology of breast cancer.
AN  - 21258111; 11704124
AB  - Multiple factors, known and unknown, contribute to human breast cancer. Hereditary, hormonal, and reproductive factors are associated with risk of breast cancer. Environmental agents, including chemical carcinogens, are modifiable risk factors to which over 70% of breast cancers have been attributed. Polymorphisms of drug-metabolizing enzymes may influence risk of breast cancer from environmental chemicals, dietary agents, and endogenous steroids. The environmental factors discussed in this review include pollutants, occupational exposures, tobacco smoke, alcohol, and diet. Aromatic amines are discussed as potential mammary carcinogens, with a focus on heterocyclic amine food pyrolysis products. These compounds are excreted into the urine after consumption of meals containing cooked meats and have recently been detected in the breast milk of lactating women.

T1  - Assessing exposure in epidemiologic studies to disinfection by-products in drinking water: report from an international workshop.
AN  - 21257690; 11702270
AB  - The inability to accurately assess exposure has been one of the major shortcomings of epidemiologic studies of disinfection by-products (DBPs) in drinking water. A number of contributing factors include a) limited information on the identity, occurrence, toxicity, and pharmacokinetics of the many DBPs that can be formed from chlorine, chloramine, ozone, and chlorine dioxide disinfection; b) the complex chemical interrelationships between DBPs and other parameters within a municipal water distribution system; and c) difficulties obtaining accurate and reliable information on personal activity and water consumption patterns. In May 2000, an international workshop was held to bring together various disciplines to develop better approaches for measuring DBP exposure for epidemiologic studies. The workshop reached consensus about the clear need to involve relevant disciplines (e.g., chemists, engineers, toxicologists, biostatisticians and epidemiologists) as partners in developing epidemiologic studies of DBPs in drinking water. The workshop concluded that greater collaboration of epidemiologists with water utilities and regulators should be encouraged in order to make regulatory monitoring data more useful for epidemiologic studies. Similarly, exposure classification categories in epidemiologic studies should be chosen to make results useful for regulatory or policy decision making.

T1  - The three modern faces of mercury.
AN  - 21251026; 11704992
AB  - The three modern "faces" of mercury are our perceptions of risk from the exposure of billions of people to methyl mercury in fish, mercury vapor from amalgam tooth fillings, and ethyl mercury in the form of thimerosal added as an antiseptic to widely used vaccines. In this article I review human exposure to and the toxicology of each of these three species of mercury. Mechanisms of action are discussed where possible. Key gaps in our current knowledge are identified from the points of view both of risk assessment and of mechanisms of action.

T1  - Diesel exhaust and asthma: hypotheses and molecular mechanisms of action.
AN  - 21250978; 11704123
AB  - Several components of air pollution have been linked to asthma. In addition to the well-studied critera air pollutants, such as nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and ozone, diesel exhaust and diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) also appear to play a role in respiratory and allergic diseases. Diesel exhaust is composed of vapors, gases, and fine particles emitted by diesel-fueled compression-ignition engines. DEPs can act as nonspecific airway irritants at relatively high levels. At lower levels, DEPs promote release of specific cytokines, chemokines, immunoglobulins, and oxidants in the upper and lower airway. Release of these mediators of the allergic and inflammatory response initiates a cascade that can culminate in airway inflammation, mucus secretion, serum leakage into the airways, and bronchial smooth muscle contraction. DEPs also may promote expression of the T(subscript)H(/subscript)2 immunologic response phenotype that has been associated with asthma and allergic disease. DEPs appear to have greater immunologic effects in the presence of environmental allergens than they do alone. This immunologic evidence may help explain the epidemiologic studies indicating that children living along major trucking thoroughfares are at increased risk for asthmatic and allergic symptoms and are more likely to have objective evidence of respiratory dysfunction.

T1  - Recent advances in measurement of Pb isotopes in polar ice and snow at sub-picogram per gram concentrations using thermal ionisation mass spectrometry
AN  - 18929166; 5621661
AB  - Techniques for Pb measurements have reached the stage where Antarctic ice with sub-picogram per gram concentrations can be reliably analysed for isotopic composition. Here, particular attention has been given to measuring the quantity of Pb added during the decontamination and sample storage stages of the sample preparation process because of their impact on accuracy at low concentrations. These stages, including the use of a stainless steel chisel for the decontamination, contributed similar to 5.2 pg to the total sample analysed, amounting to a concentration increase of similar to 13 fg g super(-1), which is significantly less than expected. Consequently, the corrections to the isotopic ratios and concentration were also smaller. Other contributions to the blank, such as Pb fallout onto critical working areas in the HEPA-filtered air laboratories, were also relatively small as was the amount of Pb leached from preconditioned perfluoroalkoxy (PFA) beakers during sample processing. The ion source contributed typically 89 plus or minus 19 fg to the blank. Although this was relatively large, its influence depended upon the amount of Pb available for analysis and it had the greatest impact when small volumes of samples with a very low concentration were analysed. A 15 months investigation of the leaching characteristics of Pb from a low-density polyethylene (LDPE) sample storage bottle showed 11 fg cm super(-2) per day was released immediately following the initial 2 months cleaning process, but this decreased to immeasurable values after a further 3 months of cleaning.

T1  - Effect of viruses on agronomic and brewing characteristics of four hop (Humulus lupulus) cultivars in Australia
AN  - 18433571; 5408947
AB  - The effect of Hop latent virus (HpLV), Hop mosaic virus (HpMV), and Prunus necrotic ringspot virus [PNRSV (apple, A, and intermediate, I, serotypes)], on the survival of softwood cuttings, the vigour (height) of early season growth, cone yield, and the levels of brewing organic acids in mature plants, was assessed in four hop (Humulus lupulus) cultivars in Tasmania, Australia. Virus infections were associated with an increase in the mortality of softwood cuttings following propagation. In all cultivars, height of early growth was a poor indicator of the effect of viruses on cone yield and levels of brewing organic acids (alpha and beta acids). In cv. 'Nugget', infection by the virus combinations studied was not associated with reductions in cone yield, however plants infected by PNRSV-I, in 2000, had 11% lower alpha acids and 7% lower beta acids. In 'Opal', infection by HpLV and HpMV were the most deleterious to cone yield, however the effect of HpMV was ameliorated when in combination with PNRSV-I. Reductions in alpha and beta acid content were attributable only to mixed infections of HpLV + HpMV in combination with either serotype of PNRSV. In 'Pride of Ringwood', yield loss was mostly attributable to HpMV and to a lesser extent, HpLV. Some ameliorations in cone yield loss occurred in plants containing a mixed infection between HpMV and HpLV or either of the ilarvirus serotypes. Both of the ilarviruses and HpMV caused reductions in alpha acid content. In 'Victoria', cone yield loss was mostly attributable to combinations of viruses such as HpLV + PNRSV-I and HpLV + HpMV. The deleterious effect of HpLV + HpMV was ameliorated by PNRSV-A and to a lesser extent, PNRSV-I. Infection by the virus combinations studied did not significantly affect alpha and beta acid levels in either year. Results suggested the effect of viruses and their combinations differed between cultivars and varied between seasons. This information, when combined with knowledge of the rates of virus re-infection, can be used to recommend control strategies for the Australian hop industry.

We interviewed and medically screened 1395 Vietnamese people aged over 15 years who had applied to migrate to Australia. Approximately 44% of applicants had an induration of 10 mm or more, and 18.6% had an induration of 15 mm or more. A positive tuberculin skin test at 5 mm, 10 mm and 15 mm of induration cut-points was significantly associated with age (OR 1.01-1.02 per year) and duration of smoking (OR 1.03-1.12 per year). Smoking appears to be an important factor associated with increased susceptibility to mycobacterial infection. It is not yet clear whether the increased tuberculin reactivity associated with smoking reflects an increased risk of tuberculosis among these migrants.

AN  - 18385369; 5376550
AB  - Legionella pneumophila are gram negative bacteria that parasitize professional phagocytes. When ingested by their eukaryotic hosts, these bacteria have the unique ability to alter maturation of the endocytic vacuoles in which they reside initially and create an organelle that supports replication. This review will focus on several scientific breakthroughs made recently that shed light on the mechanisms by which L. pneumophila are able to establish a niche permissive for intracellular growth.

T1  - The effect of ICK1, a plant cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, on mitosis in living plant cells
AN  - 18364449; 5332675
AB  - The inhibitory activity of Arabidopsis thaliana ICK1, a plant cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, has previously been characterised by its effect on plant cyclin-dependent kinase activity in vitro and its effect on growth in transgenic plants. Herein, we examine cyclin-dependent kinase-driven cell-cycle events, probed by testing the sensitivity of living cells to introduced ICK1 protein. The microinjection of ICK1 into individual Tradescantia virginiana stamen hair cells during late prophase and prometaphase resulted in a clear protein-specific increase in the metaphase transit time (time from nuclear envelope breakdown to the onset of anaphase) in a manner dependent on load and injection time. The results indicate a continuing role for cyclin-dependent kinases in mitotic progression and provide in vivo evidence at the cellular level that ICK1 can restrict growth in the plant by inhibiting cell division.

T1  - Comparative physiology of salt and water stress
AN  - 18321007; 5367580
AB  - Plant responses to salt and water stress have much in common. Salinity reduces the ability of plants to take up water, and this quickly causes reductions in growth rate, along with a suite of metabolic changes identical to those caused by water stress. The initial reduction in shoot growth is probably due to hormonal signals generated by the roots. There may be salt-specific effects that later have an impact on growth; if excessive amounts of salt enter the plant, salt will eventually rise to toxic levels in the older transpiring leaves, causing premature senescence, and reduce the photosynthetic leaf area of the plant to a level that cannot sustain growth. These effects take time to develop. Salt-tolerant plants differ from salt-sensitive ones in having a low rate of Na super(+) and Cl super(-) transport to leaves, and the ability to compartmentalize these ions in vacuoles to prevent their build-up in cytoplasm or cell walls and thus avoid salt toxicity. In order to understand the processes that give rise to tolerance of salt, as distinct from tolerance of osmotic stress, and to identify genes that control the transport of salt across membranes, it is important to avoid treatments that induce cell plasmolysis, and to design experiments that distinguish between tolerance of salt and tolerance of water stress.

T1  - The rust pathogen Triphragmium ulmariae as a selective force affecting its host, Filipendula ulmaria
AN  - 18304760; 5356553
AB  - The rust fungus Triphragmium ulmariae had a substantial effect on the survival of seedlings of Filipendula ulmaria with 89% dying over a 5-year period. Throughout the experiment, plants that survived the entire study period consistently showed very low disease severity when compared to that suffered by plants that died during its course. The resistance of F. ulmaria to T. ulmariae was assessed through inoculation of progeny of six geographically separated populations of F. ulmariae with four bulk populations of T. ulmariae. Significant differences in resistance as expressed by differences in pathogen prevalence and severity were detected among the F. ulmaria populations. Within individual host populations, significant differences were also detected among open-pollinated family lines. Although in some instances the susceptibility of host populations was greatest towards the pathogen collected from the same site, there was no consistent evidence for local adaptation. An unplanned infection by Septoria ulmariae allowed assessment of resistance within F. ulmaria towards a single population of this pathogen. Again variation for resistance was detected among host populations and among family lines within some of the populations.

T1  - Improving Intrinsic Water-Use Efficiency and Crop Yield
AN  - 18293531; 5345914
AB  - Greater yield per unit rainfall is one of the most important challenges in dryland agriculture. Improving intrinsic water-use efficiency (W sub(T)), the ratio of CO sub(2) assimilation rate to transpiration rate at the stomata, may be one means of achieving this goal. Carbon isotope discrimination ( Delta super(13)C) is recognized as a reliable surrogate for W sub(T) and there have now been numerous studies which have examined the relationship between crop yield and W sub(T) (measured as Delta super(13)C). These studies have shown the relationship between yield and W sub(T) to be highly variable. The impact on crop yield of genotypic variation in W sub(T) will depend on three factors: (i) the impact of variation in W sub(T) on crop growth rate, (ii) the impact of variation in W sub(T) on the rate of crop water use, and (iii) how growth and water use interact over the crop's duration to produce grain yield. The relative importance of these three factors will differ depending on the crop species being grown and the nature of the cropping environment. Here we consider these interactions using (i) the results of field trials with bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), durum wheat (T. turgidum L.), and barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) that have examined the association between yield and Delta super(13)C and (ii) computer simulations with the SIMTAG wheat crop growth model. We present details of progress in breeding to improve W sub(T) and yield of wheat for Australian environments where crop growth is strongly dependent on subsoil moisture stored from out-of-season rains and assess other opportunities to improve crop yield using W sub(T).

T1  - Influence of benzene emission from motorcycles on Bangkok air quality
AN  - 18290580; 5343505
AB  - This study investigated the influence of benzene concentration from motorcycle exhaust emissions on ambient air quality in Bangkok Metropolitan Region (BMR). Measurement of benzene concentration in exhaust emissions is performed on a standard test driving cycle through which each motorcycle to be tested is driven. The test result revealed that average benzene concentrations in exhaust emission for the test motorcycles ranged from 3.02 to 109.68 mg/m super(3). The finding also indicated that two-stroke motorcycles emitted five times more benzene than that of four-stroke motorcycles. Four air monitoring sites were strategically established to determine the relationship between average benzene concentrations with different traffic configurations in each traffic zone of BMR during peak/non-peak hours, day/night times and weekday/weekend. The shape of the curve for benzene level usually shows two peaks corresponding to the morning and evening traffic rush or commuter rush hours. The finding shows that the mean concentrations for benzene in all monitoring stations in the ambient air for peak hours (07:00-09:00 and 16:00-18:00 h) ranged from 15.1 to 42.4 mu g/m super(3). For non-peak hour (11:30-15:00 h), benzene levels were found in the range 16.3-30.9 mu g/m super(3). It is observed that higher levels of benzene are found among roadside stations with slow moving traffic while lower levels are found among roadside stations with fast traffic movement. Additional factors such as temperature, wind speed, rainfall, etc. are also considered in this study to determine the relationship between traffic conditions and ambient benzene levels.

T1  - Biomarker techniques to screen for bacteria that produce polyunsaturated fatty acids
AN  - 18261204; 5313640
AB  - The production of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) by bacteria has been firmly established for over two decades although it is still commonly ignored. Investigations of Antarctic sea ice have revealed a high diversity of novel bacterial taxa with the ability to produce PUFA. The majority are psychrophilic (requiring low temperatures for growth) and halophilic (requiring the presence of salts for growth), in contrast to the bacterial community present in the underlying water column. Specific fatty acids may be used as indicators of PUFA-producing bacteria in environmental samples. Structural studies of bacterial phospholipids have been particularly revealing in suggesting biomarkers specific for prokaryotic PUFA input. The use of negative ion fast atom bombardment tandem mass spectrometry for the analysis of bacterial phospholipids has identified species specific for certain groups of bacterial PUFA producers. The phylogeny of PUFA production in the gamma -Proteobacteria also suggests the future use of PUFA genes for the assessment of marine bacterial biodiversity.

T1  - Replication-Dependent Recruitment of the s-Subunit of DNA Polymerase III from Cytosolic Spaces to Replication Forks in Escherichia coli
AN  - 18226905; 5294816
AB  - The s-subunit of DNA polymerase III is located as one or two condensed clusters within the nucleoid-occupied space in exponentially growing cells of Escherichia coli. When chromosome replication is terminated after incubation at nonpermissive temperature in a temperature-sensitive dnaC mutant, the s- subunit is located in the cytosolic spaces of the cell poles.

T1  - Ecological biogeography of species of Gelonus, Acantholybas and Amorbus in Australia
AN  - 17667613; 5638511
AB  - Geographic ranges and host plants of 10 species of Australian coreid, Gelonus tasmanicus, Acantholybas brunneus, Amorbus alternatus, Am. atomarius, Am. biguttatus, Am. bispinus, Am. obscuricornis, Am. rhombifer, Am. robustus and Am. rubiginosus, were summarized using data from specimen collection labels and sampling. One process (CLIMEX) and two correlative range-modelling programs (BIOCLIM and DOMAIN) were used to infer the bioclimatic profiles of each species. By inference from the maximum range predictions made by CLIMEX, the suggestion that G. tasmanicus, Am. atomarius and Am. obscuricornis are temperate species was supported. Similarly, the suggestions that Ac. brunneus was a subtropical species and Am. biguttatus and Am. rhombifer are predominantly tropical species were supported. That Am. alternatus, Am. robustus and Am. rubiginosus are apparently ubiquitous species was supported. Comparison of the bioclimatic profiles of the habitats of G. tasmanicus and Am. obscuricornis within Tasmania using BIOCLIM supported information available in the published literature, that is, that G. tasmanicus is better suited to sites at higher elevations than Am. obscuricornis. In addition, the suggestion that the regions of high Amorbus species endemism should overlap with regions of high eucalypt species endemism was also supported. This finding is taken as evidence that the evolutionary radiation of Amorbus has followed that of the eucalypts. Using these models we have obtained preliminary insights into the biology of each species and the environmental characteristics of their preferred climatic envelope. This is an achievement that might never have been attained through concentrated study given that these insects can vary from being rare to, at best, locally common in occurrence.

T1  - Proteomic Approaches to Characterize Protein Modifications: New Tools to Study the Effects of Environmental Exposures
AN  - 14625922; 10622313
AB  - Genes ultimately code for proteins, which perform most of the functions of cells, and the proteome is the protein complement of the expressed genes in a cell. These proteomes vary among the different cell types and with time. The use of analytical proteomics to characterize protein modifications resulting from environmental exposures is considered. Discussed are the assessment of protein modification in chemical toxicity and carcinogenesis, the application of mass spectrometry to analyze adducts on known proteins, and the mapping of proteins with the Scoring Algorithm for Spectral Analysis algorithm. Also outlined are the use of protein adducts as biomarkers of exposure to environmental chemicals and protein adducts as triggers for stress responses.

T1  - Biologic Effects of Oil Fly Ash
AN  - 14621801; 10622320
AB  - Residual oil flyash has been shown in animal models to have a significant capacity to induce lung injury. Here, a review is provided of the biological effects of oil flyash on both cells and tissues. Data are presented on the physiologic, biochemical, cellular, and molecular effects of residual oil flyash in animals, human injury after such exposure, and the relevance to injury after ambient particulate matter. The data show that transition metals, especially vanadium, found in residual oil flyash participate in Fenton-like chemical reactions to produce reactive species, possibly causing tyrosine phosphorylation, intracellular signaling leading to necrosis factor-B translocation and activation of other transcription factors, induction of inflammatory mediator expression, and inflammatory lung injury. Vanadium appears to be responsible in a major way for the observed toxicity.

AB  - The state of US public water infrastructure is examined, noting the unsustainable practices of water pricing, the disposition of revenues, consolidation of the water industry, and ownership. Quality and supply problems and issues are then identified and discussed, including the effects of global climate change on drinking-water quality and quantity in the US, widespread contamination by multiple pathogens, land-use issues that impact water quality, groundwater supply and quality issues, surface-water supplies, and federal and state regulatory issues. The need for more efficient and sensitive monitoring tools and strategies is argued, along with the need for EPA to update regulations to address legal requirements and new health data.

T1  - Understanding the Human Health Effects of Chemical Mixtures
AN  - 14619235; 10622315
AB  - An assessment is provided of the role of chemical mixtures in human disease. Human diseases based on physiologic mechanisms are identified, including neurobehavioral abnormalities and sex steroid hormonal disruption, as well as diseases based on cellular and molecular mechanisms, such as neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. Cardiovascular disease is also considered that involves both physiologic disruption and cell damage. Cellular and animal models of environmentally induced disease are identified, as are molecular mechanisms of toxicant interactions. These include chemical mixtures that activate multiple receptors, constitutive androstane receptor and pregnane X receptor as mediators of the mixed PB- and PCN-type responses, chemical mixtures and aryl hydrocarbon receptor-mediated effects, and heavy metalorganic toxicant interactions.

T1  - The Law of the Sea Convention and U.S. Policy
AN  - 14614000; 10621874
AB  - While most of the 1982 Law of the Sea Convention has been supported by US Administrations, the US has yet to ratify the agreement. Provisions relating to deep seabed mining are deemed contrary to national interests. Unacceptable elements include review conference provisions that would allow amendments to enter force without express US approval and the absence of assured access to future deep seabed mineral resources. These and other issues currently before the US Senate, which is considering ratification of a 1994 agreement intended to rectify US concerns, are discussed.

T1  - Wetland Issues
AN  - 14615023; 10621893
AB  - The 107th Congress is considering wetlands provisions within its efforts to reauthorize omnibus farm legislation. Proposed bills expand the Wetland Reserve land retirement program, and may include other provisions that would increase the protection or restoration of some agricultural watersheds. The 106th Congress did not enact major new wetlands legislation but it did raise the FY2001 enrollment ceiling in the Wetlands reserve Program from 975,000 acres to 1,075,000 acres and supported increased appropriations for many activities that contribute to wetlands protection.

T1  - Global Climate Change
AN  - 14612071; 10621892
AB  - In March 2001, the Bush Administration rejected the Kyoto Protocol and chose to act only as observers, declining to participate in discussions at international negotiations on the treaty. In July 2001, major political consensus was reached, led by the European Union, and parties agreed to seek ratification and entry into force without the US. The US has indicated that it would continue its cabinet-level review of climate change and would seek new approaches based on voluntary measures and market mechanisms.

AB  - Evolving trends in US soil and water conservation policy and legislation are surveyed. The US House approved its farm bill in 2001, which would provide almost $16 billion in new mandatory funding over the next 10 yr for conservation programs. A US Senate bill under consideration would provide payments to producers who apply conservation practices on working lands and would reauthorize many current programs at higher funding levels. Current conservation policy was set through FY2002 in the 1996 Federal Agricultural Improvement and Reform Act.

AB  - NPS, USBLM, FWS, and USFS receive money annually from the Land and Water Conservation Fund to acquire recreation lands. Funding history and current issues relevant to appropriations are discussed. Congressional issues encompass deciding the annual amount of appropriations, determining which lands should be acquired, and spending a portion for purposes other than land acquisition. Annual appropriations in the last 20 yr have been in the $150-350 million range. In FY2002, the Bush Administration sought full funding at $900 million, with half to be divided among the four federal agenies, and the remainder allocated for state grant programs.

T1  - A Bacterial Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Factor Activates ARF on Legionella Phagosomes
AN  - 18257020; 5315626
AB  - The intracellular pathogen Legionella pneumophila subverts vesicle traffic in eukaryotic host cells to create a vacuole that supports replication. The dot/icm genes encode a protein secretion apparatus that L. pneumophila require for biogenesis of this vacuole. Here we show that L. pneumophila produce a protein called RalF that functions as an exchange factor for the ADP ribosylation factor (ARF) family of guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases). The RalF protein is required for the localization of ARF on phagosomes containing L. pneumophila. Translocation of RalF protein through the phagosomal membrane is a dot/icm-dependent process. Thus, RalF is a substrate of the Dot/Icm secretion apparatus.

AB  - Concerns about domestic energy security in the wake of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attack prompted the US House to pass a resolution expressing support for filling the Strategic Petroleum reserve to its full authorized capacity of 1 billion bbl. President Bush ordered fill of the reserve to its capacity in November 2001, principally through royalty-in-kind acquisitions. The US Senate also introduced legislation that would permanently authorize the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and order fill to its current capacity of about 700 million bbl. The FY2002 budget request for the reserve was for $169 million.

T1  - Effects of signaling molecules, protein phosphatase inhibitors and blast pathogen (Magnaporthe grisea) on the mRNA level of a rice (Oryza sativa L.) phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (OsPHGPX) gene in seedling leaves
AN  - 18287684; 5340126
AB  - With a specific focus on rice self-defense response(s), the effects of global signaling molecules, jasmonic acid (JA), salicylic acid (SA), abscisic acid (ABA), and ethylene (using the ethylene generator, ethephon), and protein phosphatase (PP) inhibitors, cantharidin and endothall on expression of a rice phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (OsPHGPX) gene in rice seedling leaves were investigated. We provide first evidence for a potent up-regulation of the OsPHGPX mRNA accumulation by these signaling molecules and PP inhibitors that strongly suggest its potential role in defense/stress. The OsPHGPX gene also showed a weak constitutive expression and responsiveness to cut. These inductions were influenced by light signal(s), and did not show a requirement for de novo synthesized protein factor(s). A potential interaction amongst these signaling molecules, especially JA, SA, ABA and kinetin, in modulating the OsPHGPX expression was found. The blast pathogen, Magnaporthe grisea also elicited the accumulation of OsPHGPX mRNA in leaves. This is a first systematic report in rice (and in plants) demonstrating the inducible nature (and expression) of the OsPHGPX gene by a variety of defense/stress-related stimuli, and modulation by the PPs of the kinase-signaling cascade(s).

T1  - North Korea's Nuclear Weapons Program
AN  - 14614431; 10621871
AB  - US and other foreign intelligence assessments have concluded that North Korea probably has acquired sufficient weapons-grade plutonium for the manufacture of at least one nuclear weapon. In October 1994, the US and North Korea entered into an agreement that offers the latter a package of benefits in return for a freeze on its nuclear program. Benefits to North Korea include LWRs totaling 2000 MW, and heavy oil shipments of 500,000 tpy until the first LWR is built. Policy problems encountered by the US since signing the agreement include securing funds annually to finance oil shipments to North Korea, and development by North Korea of long-range missiles.

AN  - 14614965; 10621873
AB  - Several bills pending before Congress address the risk provisions in conjunction with elevating EPA to cabinet status. H.R. 2694 would require quantitative risk assessment, cost assessment, and comparative risk assessment for each proposed or final regulation relating to public health and safety or the environment. S.855 would mandate evaluation of health effects for vulnerable sub-populations and establish a national policy of protecting them from pollution with an adequate margin of safety. The merits and limitations of relying on risk assessments and estimates in public policies intended to protect health and the environment are cited.

T1  - Global Climate Change: Market-Based Strategies to Reduce Greenhouse Gases
AN  - 14613311; 10621894
AB  - The two climate change mitigation mechanisms receiving the most attention are a tradeable permit program and carbon taxes. The merits and limitations of these mechanisms are examined, with reference to price vs. quantity, comprehensiveness, economic impact, and equity. At the domestic level, equity issues focus on regional distribution costs under either scheme. Tradeable permit programs would reduce carbon dioxide emissions to a specific level with the control cost handled efficiently but not at a specific cost level. C taxes would effectively cap marginal control costs at the specific tax level but the precise level of emission reduction achieved would be less certain.

T1  - Involvement of active transport systems in the mobilization of cadmium by dithiocarbamates in vivo
AN  - 18251545; 5316295
AB  - Previously, we reported that the action of cadmium (Cd) complexing dithiocarbamates, such as N-benzyl-D-glucamine dithiocarbamate (BGD) and N-p-hydroxymethylbenzyl-D-glucamine dithiocarbamate (HBGD), in removing Cd from the kidney involves a probenecid-sensitive organic anion transport system. However, other mechanisms responsible for Cd mobilizing effects of BGD and HBGD are still unclear. Therefore, in the present study we examined the effects of phloretin (an inhibitor of plasma membrane glucose carrier), phloridzin (an inhibitor of Na super(+)-dependent active hexose transport) and alpha-aminoisobutyric acid (AIB, an inhibitor of amino acid transport) on the excretion and distribution of the chelating agents and Cd in mice. Phloretin pretreatment markedly decreased the biliary and urinary excretions of BGD and HBGD. Phloridzin pretreatment also decreased the biliary and urinary excretions of HBGD, but had no effect on the BGD. AIB pretreatment had no effect on the excretions of either BGD or HBGD. Phloretin pretreatment increased the hepatic and renal contents of BGD and HBGD. Contrary to this, phloridzin pretreatment decreased the hepatic content of BGD and hepatic and renal contents of HBGD, while AIB pretreatment decreased the renal contents of BGD and HBGD. The mobilizing effects of BGD and HBGD on the hepatic and renal Cd was also investigated using Cd-exposed mice. Phloretin or phloridzin pretreatment decreased the mobilizing effect of BGD and HBGD on the hepatic Cd, but had no effect on the renal Cd. These results suggest that BGD and HBGD are taken up into the liver and kidney by phloridzin- and phloretin-sensitive transport system, respectively; that Cd-BGD and Cd-HBGD complexes formed in the hepatic cells are secreted to the bile by phloridzin- and phloretin-sensitive transport systems; and that free BGD and HBGD secreted from these organ to the bile and urine might have occurred, at least in part, by different mechanisms.

T1  - Effect of protein kinase C on endoplasmic reticulum cholesterol.
AN  - 71351367; 11779197
AB  - Plasma membrane cholesterol both regulates and is regulated by effector proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) through a feedback system that is poorly understood. We now show that ER cholesterol varies over a fivefold range in response to experimental agents that act upon protein kinase C (PKC). Agents that activate Ca(2+)-dependent PKC [phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) and bryostatin 1] increased the level of ER cholesterol; inhibitors such as staurosporine and calphostin C decreased it. Rottlerin, a selective inhibitor of the PKC-delta isoform, also increased ER cholesterol. The esterification of plasma membrane cholesterol was altered by protein kinase C-directed agents in a corresponding fashion. Furthermore, the regulatory effect of plasma membrane cholesterol on the esterification of ER cholesterol was blocked by PKC-directed agents. These findings suggest that multiple protein kinase C isoforms participate in the regulation of ER cholesterol and therefore in cholesterol homeostasis. (c)2002 Elsevier Science.

The program is authorized at $1 billion annually through FY2003, and all states are participating. A February 2001 survey by EPA indicated that communities need to invest roughly $150.9 billion on drinking water infrastructure improvements over the next 20 yr. Issues of interest in the 107th Congress include the gap between infrastructure needs and available funding, and funding issues for small communities.

T1  - Mining on Federal Lands
AN  - 14611999; 10621869
AB  - Prospects for reform of the general Mining Law of 1872 are explored, with emphasis on the claim-patent system supported by the mining sector and opposed by others as a system of giveaway of publicly owned resources. Also under debate is whether the law limits claimants to one mining millsite of no more than five acres/mining claim or whether multiple millsites are allowed. Revisions implemented under the Clinton Administration which authorize USBLM to deny mining operations if they would result in substantial irreparable harm to resources have been suspended by the current Bush Administration.

T1  - Isolation of a novel, phosphate-activated glutaminase from Bacillus pasteurii
AN  - 18262999; 5313710
AB  - In Bacillus pasteurii glutamine is being taken up efficiently by a sodium-dependent uptake system and subsequently hydrolysed to ammonium and glutamate. Concerning the latter process, a catabolic L-glutamine amidohydrolase (glutaminase) was isolated from the cytoplasm of this alkaliphilic bacterium and purified to homogeneity using liquid chromatography. Biochemical and physical parameters of the pure enzyme were examined in detail. Interestingly, analysis of the glutaminase revealed a marked increase in catalytic activity in the presence of phosphate, a property yet restricted to animal glutaminases. This is the first report on the presence of a phosphate-activated glutaminase in bacteria.

T1  - Isolation of a Pseudomonas monteilli strain with a novel phosphotriesterase
AN  - 18261236; 5313708
AB  - A Pseudomonas monteilli strain (designated C11) that uses the phosphotriester coroxon as its sole phosphorus source has been isolated. Native PAGE and activity staining identified a single isozyme with significant phosphotriesterase activity in the soluble fraction of the cell. This phosphotriesterase could hydrolyse both coumaphos and coroxon. The hydrolysis product of coroxon, diethylphosphate, and the thion analogue, coumaphos, could not serve as phosphorus sources when added to the growth medium. The majority of the phosphotriesterase and phosphatase activity was contained in the soluble fraction of the cell. Phosphatase activity was inhibited by vanadate as well as by dialysis against the metal chelator, EDTA. Phosphotriesterase activity was not affected by either vanadate or dialysis with EDTA or 1,10-phenanthroline. Phosphotriesterase activity was regulated by the amounts of both phosphate and coroxon in the medium, whereas total phosphatase activity was regulated by phosphate but not coroxon. A lack of hybridisation using a probe against the opd (organophosphate degradation) gene encoding a phosphotriesterase from Flavobacterium sp. ATCC27551 against bulk DNA from P. monteilli C11 suggested that this strain does not contain opd. The work presented here indicates the presence of a novel phosphotriesterase in P. monteilli C11.

T1  - Native American Commercial Driving Training and Technical Assistance Act. Hearing before the Committee on Indian Affairs, United States Senate, One Hundred Seventh Congress, Second Session, on S. 1344, To Provide Training and Technical Assistance to Native Americans Who Are Interested in Commercial Vehicle Driving Careers (July 24, 2002).
AN  - 62192979; ED475064
AB  - A Senate committe hearing received testimony on the proposed "Native American Commercial Driving Training and Technical Assistance Act" (Senate Bill 1344). The Act cites the high unemployment and economic distress among Native Americans, the federal government's obligation to assist Indian tribes with economic development, the high demand and expected increase in demand for commercial truck drivers, and the benefits of a career in commercial vehicle driving. Four grants to provide commercial driver training and certification would be awarded competitively, with the competition restricted to tribally controlled community colleges or universities. Two of these--Fort Peck Community College (Montana) and D-Q University (California)--currently offer commercial vehicle driving programs. Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell and speakers representing the American Trucking Association, an American Indian-owned trucking firm, and Fort Peck Community College offered comments and recommendations related to the Act's passage and implementation, and discussed the role of tribally controlled colleges and universities in Native American job training and economic development; the funding needs of tribally controlled colleges; descriptions of current commercial driving programs and certification requirements; and career benefits.
