T1 - Advanced Telecommunications in U.S. Public Elementary and Secondary Schools, 1995. E.D. Tabs.
AN - 62676052; ED392442
AB - In response to the federal goal to connect all of the nation's school classrooms, libraries, hospitals, and law enforcement agencies to the information superhighway, the U.S. Department of Education commissioned a survey to obtain current data to compare with baseline data (obtained in 1994) on the status of advanced telecommunications in public elementary and secondary schools. Data was gathered in the fall of 1995 from a nationally representative sample of 917 schools regarding the types and location of advanced telecommunications equipment; services currently available; current computer networking capabilities; plans to connect to wide area networks; the formal role groups have in developing telecommunications plans; and barriers that limit acquisition or use of advanced telecommunications. This report contains tabular summaries (16 data tables, 16 standard error tables in Appendix A, and four reference tables in Appendix B) that highlight selected findings based on the data collected. The tables present data for public schools and for schools by instructional level, size of enrollment, metropolitan status, and geographic region of the country. Appendices also include a glossary of terms, the survey methodology and data reliability, the survey instrument, and background information. (AEF)

T1 - Evidence of Younger Dryas and Neoglacial cooling in a Late Quaternary palaeotemperature record from a speleothem in eastern Victoria, Australia
AN - 21081323; 11163372
AB - A calcitic stalagmite collected from a limestone cave in the Buchan area of eastern Victoria has been dated by three mass-spectrometric uranium series analyses. Two growth phases are represented: the older from 13.4 to 10.6 ka and the younger from 3.2 to 2.1 ka. Oxygen isotope analysis reveals that temperatures were below present-day values at all times, but particularly cool conditions are indicated between 12.3 and 11.4 ka, and Neoglacial conditions occurred at about 3 ka. The older cold climate event is clearly synchronous with the Younger Dryas in Europe and this is the first time that strong evidence for this event has been found in Australia. Carbon isotope variations are interpreted as indicating changes in plant productivity on the surface and are most likely controlled by variations in summer rainfall. They indicate particularly high levels of plant productivity from 11.5 to 11.0 ka.

T1 - Estimated Rates of Fish Consumption by Anglers Participating in the Connecticut Housatonic River Creel Survey
AN - 20540916; 9226613
AB - An analysis of data collected by the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection's (CTDEP) Fisheries Division during its roving creel survey of the Housatonic River from 1984 to 1986 was conducted to determine whether those data could provide useful information on the fish consumption behavior of Housatonic River anglers. The objectives of this analysis were to derive consumption estimates for the surveyed population and to determine if there were any subpopulations of Housatonic River anglers at the time of the survey who consumed considerably more fish than the general angling population. Estimates of consumption were based on the information collected concerning consumption practices, species and sizes of fish harvested, and the frequency of fishing trips by interviewed anglers. Annualized consumption estimates of 0.17 g/d (median), 2.6 g/d (mean), and 12 g/d (95th percentile) were derived by assuming that all harvested fish were consumed by 2.59 individuals per household, the mean household size in Connecticut. If it is assumed that all fish were consumed by the angler alone, consumption estimates are increased by a factor of 2.6. These derived rates are reasonable when compared with the results of other consumption studies that have shown low rates of consumption of sport-caught freshwater fish from northeastern U.S, rivers. Based on the CTDEP data for the Housatonic River, there is no evidence that a subpopulation of high-consumption anglers existed at the time of the survey. Rather, these data indicate that the surveyed anglers primarily fished the Housatonic River for its recreational and aesthetic values, not for obtaining food.

T1 - A ribozyme gene and an antisense gene are equally effective in conferring resistance to tobacco mosaic virus on transgenic tobacco
AN - 15778971; 3987893
AB - Ribozymes of the hammerhead class can be designed to cleave a target RNA in a sequence-specific manner and can potentially be used to specifically modulate gene activity. We have targeted the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) genome with a ribozyme containing three catalytic hammerhead domains embedded within a 1 kb antisense RNA. The ribozyme was able to cleave TMV RNA at all three target sites in vitro at 25 degree C. Transgenic tobacco plants were generated which expressed the ribozyme or the corresponding antisense constructs directed at the TMV genome. Six of 38 independent transgenic plant lines expressing the ribozyme and 6 of 39 plant lines expressing the antisense gene showed some level of protection against TMV infection. Homozygous progeny of some lines were highly resistant to TMV; at least 50% of the plants remained asymptomatic even when challenged with high levels of TMV. These plants also displayed resistance to infection with TMV RNA or the related tomato mosaic virus (ToMV). In contrast, hemizygous plants of the same lines displayed only very weak resistance when inoculated with low amounts of TMV and no resistance against high inoculation levels. Resistance in homozygous plants was not overcome by a TMV strain which was altered at the three target sites to abolish ribozyme-mediated cleavage, suggesting that the ribozyme conferred resistance primarily by an antisense mechanism.

T1 - A Human In Vivo Model for the Determination of Lead Bioavailability Using Stable Isotope Dilution
AN - 14418444; 10515389
AB - An Australian-made lead crystal decanter having a different lead-206:lead-207 ratio from American-made lead crystal objects was used to store sherry that was given to subject one week after the same sherry stored in the original container was given to the volunteers. At the time the volunteers ingested the sherry from the decanter, the lead concentration of the liquid was 14.2 mu mol/l, and blood lead levels increased to 0.18 mu mol/l from 0.10 mu mol/l immediately after ingestion of the sherry from the decanter. However, the ratio of lead-206 to lead-207 decreased to 1.137 from 1.202. Absorption of 70% of the ingested lead was determined, showing that the lead that leached into the sherry from the decanter was very bioavailable.

T1 - Relationships Among Blood Lead Levels, Iron Deficiency, and Cognitive Development in Two-Year-Old Children
AN - 14418330; 10515390
AB - More than 40 children between 18 and 30 months of age having blood lead levels ranging from 25 to 55 mu g/dl were studied for cognitive development during the six months when abatement measures and chelation therapy were causing blood lead levels to decline. In children who had sufficient iron levels at the outset of the study, standardized scores increased 1.2 points as lead levels decreased by 1 mu g/dl. Children who were deficient in iron did not demonstrate the same relationship between blood lead levels and cognitive ability. However, in these children, cognitive ability increased as hemoglobin increased. Blood lead levels declined less in children who were deficient in iron.

AB - The risk to children from environmental toxicants can be greater than to adults because of physiological and behavioral differences. However, these differences are generally ignored in risk assessments, which focus on adult responses to toxicants. Effects of childhood exposure to lead, air pollutants, pesticide residues, polychlorinated compounds, radiation, and electromagnetic fields are described. In addition, the impact of poverty and the excess risks faced by minority groups are discussed.

T1 - The Effects of Ambient Ozone on Lung Function in Children: A Reanalysis of Six Summer Camp Studies
AN - 14417866; 10515388
AB - Data from six studies done by three different groups on the relationship between ozone levels and lung function were examined and fit to a model that related forced expiratory volume, peak expiratory flow rate, and ozone concentration during the hour prior to examination. A significant relationship between ozone concentration and peak expiratory flow rate was not found, although there was strong indication that forced expiratory volume decreased as ozone concentration increased.

T1 - Healing Environmental Harm: Is There a Doctor in the House?
AN - 14416607; 10515386
AB - Interest in environmental medicine has been growing since the Institute of Medicine of NAS has created a definition for the specialty, which includes diagnosis and treatment of those exposed to environmental pollutants and hazards in water, air and soil. In 1991, only 68% of medical schools taught courses in environmental and occupational medicine, and these courses averaged only six hours in length. Generally the leaders in the specialty took it up as a second career after establishing themselves in another branch of medicine. Changes in the way environmental medicine specialists are trained are underway. Traditionally specialists in occupational medicine were employed in hospitals, but increasingly they are employed by companies to prevent lawsuits and reduce costs. Specialists in environmental medicine can be expected to follow similar employment routes and the increasing importance of the specialty will come from pressure from industry.

T1 - DNA Strand Breaks in Human Nasal Respiratory Epithelium Are Induced Upon Exposure to Urban Pollution
AN - 14416432; 10515387
AB - Single strand breaks were noted in in vivo and in vitro in DNA of alveolar macrophages and respiratory epithelial cells that were exposed to ozone or reaction products of ozone. Human males and children from low and high pollution areas were examined for evidence of DNA single strand breaks in nasal epithelium. A group composed of new arrivals in the highly polluted area was also studied. Those in the highly polluted area spent more than seven hours per day outdoors and had upper respiratory symptoms. Children and adults in the highly polluted area had significantly more evidence of single strand breakage than children and adults in area of low pollution. Single strand breakage increased from 39.8 during the first week to 67.29 during the second week. After that the number of single strand breaks remained stable.

T1 - Inhibition of Gap Junctional Intercellular Communication in Normal Human Breast Epithelial Cells after Treatment with Pesticides, PCBs, and PBBs, Alone or in Mixtures
AN - 14410697; 10515392
AB - Cell cultures of epithelial cells from normal human breast were grown and exposed to DDT, dieldrin, toxaphene, and several congeners of PCBs and PBBs. A dose response inhibition of gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) was noted for toxaphene, DDT, and dieldrin within 90 minutes of exposure. Within 24 hours GJIC was restored for DDT and toxaphene, but no recovery of the response was noted for dieldrin. Time and dose dependent inhibition of GJIC was found for several of the congeners of PCBs and PBBs. Dieldrin combined with either 2,4,5-hexabromobiphenyl or 2,4,5-hexachlorobiphenyl (2,4,5-HCB) and mixtures of DDT and 2,4,5-HCB significantly inhibited GJIC. DDT, 2,4,5-HCB, 2,4,5-hexabromobiphenyl, dieldrin, toxaphene, and 2,3,4-hexachlorobiphenyl may act as promoters of tumors in human breast tissue.

T1 - Dietary Exposures to Selected Metals and Pesticides
AN - 14410118; 10515393
AB - Metal and pesticide intake in the diet were estimated for 120,000 adults in the US based on results of food frequency questionnaires, and estimates of residues in the foods. Unfortunately the low detection rate for the investigated substances, which included four heavy metals, three organophosphate pesticides, and four organochlorine pesticides, made estimations of exposures impossible.

T1 - Ecotoxicity in the Reconquista River, Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina: A Preliminary Study
AN - 14410088; 10515391
AB - The Reconquista River valley is heavy populated and highly industrialized. Embryos of Bufo arenarum were exposed to river water at six sites in the river basin. Most of the river had toxicity levels that were greater than those allowed by the US EPA. Macroorganisms were absent from areas where the US EPA criteria maximum concentration was exceeded. Dead fish were observed at one such site. Toxicity tests using amphibians in early life stages could be used to evaluate water quality and contamination.

T1 - On Perceptual Metaphors
AN - 85620179; 9607612
AB - It is argued that because of perceptual metaphors, eg, synesthesia - in which music or voices are perceived to have shapes, textures, or colors - & physiognomic perception - in which light & dark objects are associated with emotional states - there must be more than figurative processes at work in the recognition of metaphor. It is suggested that the existence of nonlinguistic metaphors across different perceptual modalities reflects hard-wired properties of perceptual systems & therefore precedes the development of language. However, despite their perceptual origin, it is noted that nonlinguistic metaphorical relations are often mediated & made accessible through language. Therefore, it is contended that studies that examine the processing of metaphors through information processing tasks requiring the identification or categorization of perceptual stimuli ought to consider both linguistic & perceptual processes that might mediate cross-modal metaphoric interactions. 3 Figures, 85 References.

T1 - Haloperidol and its tetrahydropyridine derivative (HPTP) are metabolized to potentially neurotoxic pyridinium species in the baboon.
AN - 78478868; 8890926
AB - The in vivo metabolic fate of haloperidol (HP) and its tetrahydropyridine analog HPTP have been examined in the baboon to investigate the formation of potentially neurotoxic pyridinium metabolites that have been observed previously in humans. Urine samples collected from baboons treated with HPTP were shown to contain, in addition to the parent drug, the corresponding reduced HPTP (RHPTP), generated by reduction of the butyrophenone carbonyl group. RHPTP was characterized by comparison with a synthetic standard using HPLC with electrochemical detection and HPLC/MS/MS. Another compound identified by LC/MS/MS was a glucuronide metabolite of RHPTP. The HP pyridinium (HPP+) and reduced pyridinium (RHPP+) metabolites were shown to be present in urine from both HP and HPTP treated baboons by HPLC using fluorescence detection. The urinary excretion profile of HPP+ and RHPP+ in both groups was essentially identical and, in contrast to that observed in rodents, closely paralleled the profile found in humans treated with HP. These data in the baboon suggest that the metabolic processes involved in the production of the pyridinium metabolites of HP are similar to those in humans. Furthermore, the HPTP-treated baboon may be an appropriate model in which to study the role of pyridinium metabolites in the induction of tardive dyskinesia.

T1 - Biodegradation of chlorinated phenolic compounds.
AN - 77931966; 14536923
AB - Chlorophenolic compounds are generated from a number of industrial manufacturing processes including pulp and paper manufacture. These compounds are found to be toxic and recalcitrant and hence their discharge into the environment must be regulated. Slow and partial degradation of chlorophenols under aerobic and anaerobic natural environment has been observed. Aerobic biodegradation of chlorophenols proceeds through the formation of catechols while under anaerobic conditions, reductive dehalogenation is the preferred metabolic pathway. Number and position of chlorine substituents on the phenolic ring has influence on the rate and extent of biodegradation of chlorophenols. In engineered systems, acclimatization of biomass to chlorophenols markedly enhances the biodegradation ability by reducing the initial lag phase and by countering inhibition. Partial removal of chlorophenols between 40-60% is usually observed in aerobic and anaerobic processes. Removal can be enhanced by a combination of aerobic and anaerobic operations.

T1 - Spatial distribution of acid-volatile sulphide concentration and metal bioavailability in mangrove sediments from the Brisbane River, Australia.
AN - 77906465; 15091359
AB - Acid-volatile sulphide (AVS) was measured at regular positions along eight transects through a mangrove forest in the Brisbane River, Queensland, Australia. Concentrations ranged from 0.33 to 22.61 micromol S g(-1) sediment dry weight. There was no correlation between AVS concentration and the proportion of clay-sand in the sediment, but sediments with high AVS concentrations tended to contain more water (rs=0.43; p=0.01). AVS concentrations were used to assess the potential bioavailability of the sediment heavy metal burden. The spatial variability of potential bioavailability was high and depended to a great extent on which metals were considered as part of the AVS complexing system. It is suggested seasonal variations would further increase the observed variability in bioavailability. This variation should be taken into account when monitoring and assessing long-term trends in sediment toxicity.

T1 - Reading Literacy in the United States. Findings from the IEA Reading Literacy Study.
AN - 62684937; ED396245
AB - Using data from the 1991 IEA (International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement) Reading Literacy Study, a study compared United States fourth- and ninth-grade students to students in 32 other countries; examined relationships between reading comprehension and aspects of family, schooling, and community; and investigated the nature of reading instruction in American classrooms. National samples of classes at the grade level containing the most 9-year-olds and 14-year-olds were used. A "world average" was constructed of the 18 participating nations that are also members of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Results indicated that (1) American fourth graders outperformed students from all other countries except Finland; (2) American ninth graders' performance was closely grouped with that of students from 15 other nations; (3) in the United States, White students read better than Black and Hispanic students; (4) most groups of American students outperformed the OECD average; (5) students whose parents did not finish high school read at about the same level as the OECD average at fourth grade, but fell below the average in the ninth grade; (6) when differences in wealth, race/ethnicity, level of parental education, and other related attributes were taken into account, children from one-parent mother-only families did as well as children from two-parent families; (7) parents' educational attainment influenced reading comprehension over and above other aspects of family background; (8) what teachers said they believed about reading instruction differed markedly from what they actually did and had students do.

AB - The ideas in this mini-brochure are intended for teachers interested in creating opportunities for students to pose questions during literature-based discussions. The brochure suggests that a child-centered approach to questioning is a highly motivating way to conduct discussions because students of all reading abilities can participate. The brochure discusses developing discussion guidelines, emphasizing that "put-downs" are unacceptable, orienting before reading, soliciting questions after reading, accepting all questions, encouraging collaboration, shifting to peer discussion groups, and learning from students' questions.

T1 - Achieving the Goals: Goal 1. All Children in America Will Start School Ready To Learn.
AN - 62678478; ED395044
AB - "Reaching the Goals" is a series of eight books designed to inform people involved in education reform, or people who want to be involved, of the myriad of programs and resources that are available from the Federal Government to support each of the National Education Goals defined in 1990. This first book is dedicated to Goal 1, "All children in America will start school ready to learn." The book provides federal program descriptions and definitions for more than 50 programs that are designed for preschool children. These programs encompass nutrition, learning, and health. Their descriptions should provide reformers with ideas for initiating or expanding preschool services at the community level. Programs from the following agencies are described: (1) Department of Agriculture; (2) Department of Defense; (3) U.S. Air Force; (4) Department of Education; (5) Department of Health and Human Services; (6) Department of Housing and Urban Development; (7) Department of Justice; (8) National Endowment for the Arts; (9) National Endowment for the Humanities; (10) National Science Foundation; (11) Institute of Museum Services; and (12) Smithsonian. Each program description includes contact names for more information. The book concludes with a directory of resources. Resources listed include 10 regional representatives and deputies of the Secretary of Education, 12 Head Start regional offices, the Head Start Collaboration Network members for the 10 regions, the contact list for Operation Weed and Seed (102 individuals), 60 state Arts Agency Coordinators, and 57 State Humanities Councils (includes territories).

T1 - The Patterns of Teacher Compensation. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62671352; ED391230
AB - This report presents information regarding the patterns of variation in the salaries paid to public and private school teachers in relation to various personal and job characteristics. Specifically, the analysis examines the relationship between compensation and variables such as public/private schools, gender, race/ethnic background, school level and type, teacher qualifications, and different work environments. The economic conceptual framework of hedonic wage theory, which illuminates the trade-offs between monetary rewards and the various sets of characteristics of employees and jobs, was used to analyze The Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS) database. The national survey was administered by the National Center for Education Statistics during the 1987-88, 1990-91, and 1993-94 school years. Findings indicate that on average, public school teachers earned between about 25 to 119 percent higher salaries than did private school teachers, depending on the private subsector. Between about 2 and 50 percent of the public-private difference could be accounted for by differences in teacher characteristics, depending on the private subsector. White and Hispanic male public school teachers earned higher salaries than their female counterparts. Hedonic wage theory would predict that teacher salaries would be higher in schools with more challenging, more difficult, and less desirable work environments. Schools with higher levels of student violence, lower levels of administrative support, and large class sizes paid higher salaries to compensate teachers for the additional burdens. However, some of the findings contradict the hypothesis. For example, public school teachers working in schools characterized by fewer family problems, higher levels of teacher influence on policy, and higher job satisfaction also received higher salaries. In conclusion, the results are consistent with the hypothesis that a complex array of factors underlie the processes of teacher supply and demand and hence the determination of salaries. Teachers are not all the same, but are differentiated by their attributes. At the same time, districts and schools are differentiated by virtue of the work environment they offer. Seventeen tables and two figures are included. Appendices contain technical notes, descriptive statistics and parameter estimates for variables, and standard errors for selected tables.

T1 - Music for Blind and Physically Handicapped Individuals. Fact Sheet.
AN - 62593080; ED403922
AB - With the cooperation of composers and publishers who grant permission to use copyrighted works, the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped (NLS) of the Library of Congress selects and produces music scores in braille and large-print formats, and music magazines and books about music and musicians in large-print, braille, and recorded formats. People interested in music materials receive them directly from NLS in Washington, D.C.; materials are sent to borrowers and returned to NLS by postage-free mail. Music patrons nationwide can call the NLS at a toll-free number. Anyone who is unable to read or use standard printed materials as a result of temporary or permanent visual or physical limitations may receive service. Six music magazines are offered by direct mail to eligible readers. The music collection, made up of about 30,000 books, scores, and instructional recordings, is a major resource for blind, partially sighted, and physically handicapped musicians, music students, and others who enjoy music. Materials in braille make up the largest portion of the collection. Enlarged scores with a minimum of 14-point type size and a staff size of one inch are available for voice, piano, and other instruments. The material on audio discs and cassettes includes music theory, appreciation, and history; biographical sketches of musicians and their art; interviews and master classes; and instruction for various instruments. Musical recordings intended solely for entertainment are not part of the free program. An order form is included, along with a checklist of materials. (AEF)

T1 - The National Education Goals Report, Building a Nation of Learners, 1996.
AN - 62586003; ED400347
AB - The National Education Goals Report serves as a barometer of the nation's progress toward the national education goals defined in early 1990. This year's report, sixth in a series of annual reports planned through the year 2000, focuses on standards and assessments, two areas of educational reform which are currently of interest to state and local communities. The report also updates information reported in 1991-1995 to indicate changes since the baseline reporting year whenever additional data has become available. Chapter 1 answers frequently asked questions about setting standards and creating assessments and provides knowledge so that parents and students can actively participate in discussions and the decision making process in their communities. Examples of challenging state assessment programs and activities from Maryland, Connecticut, and Kentucky are given. Chapter 2 summarizes progress on each of the 25 core indicators and takes each of the national goals and summarizes what has been learned since 1991 and what remains to be discovered in that goal area. Chapter 3 outlines each state's progress on a set of core indicators that is similar to the national core indicators. Overall, the Goals Panel stresses that it will be impossible to achieve the National Education Goals unless states and local communities demand more from their students by setting rigorous standards for student achievement and by designing new forms of assessment to determine whether students have mastered challenging subject matter. Appendices include technical notes and sources for the national and state core indicators. (Contains 8 tables and 25 graphs.) (MAK)

T1 - The National Education Goals Report. Commonly Asked Questions about Standards and Assessments. Executive Summary, 1996.
AN - 62585928; ED400348
AB - This executive summary of the National Educational Goals Report 1996 serves as a barometer of the U.S.'s progress toward the National Education Goals defined in early 1990. This year's report, sixth in a series of annual reports planned through the year 2000, focuses on standards and assessments, two areas of educational reform which are currently of interest to state and local communities. The report also updates information reported in 1991-1995 to indicate changes since the baseline reporting year whenever additional data has become available. Part 1 of the summary takes each of the national goals and highlights a few key findings in that area since 1991. Part 2 answers frequently asked questions about setting standards and creating assessments at the state and local level and provides knowledge so that parents and students can actively participate in discussions and the decision making process in their communities. Examples of challenging state assessment programs and activities from Maryland, Connecticut, and Kentucky are given. Part 3 outlines the U.S.'s progress since the baseline year on a set of core indicators in each National Education Goal area. Overall, the Goals Panel stresses that it will be impossible to achieve the National Education Goals unless states and local communities demand more from their students by setting rigorous standards for student achievement and by designing new forms of assessment to determine whether students have mastered challenging subject matter.

T1 - National Environmental Education Amendments Act of 1996. Report [To Accompany S. 1873].
AN - 62584929; ED407223
AB - This report from the Committee on Environment and Public Works describes S.1873, the National Environmental Education Amendments Act of 1996, which amends the National Environmental Education Act of 1990. The report begins with a general statement on the background of the Act, which established a comprehensive environmental education program at the Federal level to support State and local efforts. It also established an Office of Environmental Education within the Environmental Protection Agency. The general statement is followed by the current congressional legislation history and a summary of S.1873. The bill, a single title with nine sections, extends the authorization for programs authorized by the National Environmental Education Act until the year 2007. The bill includes a number of changes to make programs authorized under the Act operate more effectively and efficiently. For example, Section 2 ensures that the Office of Environmental Education's programs will be balanced and scientifically sound. The Act supports environmental education programs and materials that characterize environmental problems in a factual and objective manner. A section-by-section analysis describes these changes. The analysis is followed by a cost projection of the legislation and changes in the language of the existing law. (PVD)

T1 - Urban Schools: The Challenge of Location and Poverty.
AN - 62580578; ED399308
AB - This report addresses widespread beliefs about the performance of urban students, and their family and school environments. Using data from several national surveys, it compares urban students and schools with their suburban and rural counterparts on a broad range of factors, including student population and background characteristics, afterschool activities, school experiences, and student outcomes, focusing specifically on the effects of poverty. The methodology used to explore differences among schools incorporates a control for the concentration of poverty in the school. Even after controlling for poverty, urban students compared less favorably to their nonurban counterparts on many measures. Urban high poverty schools and students performed similarly or more favorably than other high poverty schools on half of the measures studied, and high poverty concentration seemed to present equally challenging circumstances in all locations. On the other half of the measures, urban schools compared unfavorably, but, when considering the large overall variations by location and poverty concentration, urban high poverty schools and their students were generally no different than the effects of location and poverty concentration would have predicted. Five appendixes provide estimates and standard error tables, discussions of methodology and data sources, and a bibliography. (Contains 11 figures in the Executive Summary, 127 figures in the text, 3 charts, and 52 appendix tables. (SLD)

T1 - Effective Transition Practices: Facilitating Continuity. Training Guides for the Head Start Learning Community.
AN - 62577300; ED407143
AB - This guide supports Head Start's efforts to improve long-term school success and continue comprehensive services for children by ensuring their effective transitions to different settings. The guide is divided into two sections, one on skill-based training and one on information resources. The skill-based training section includes three training modules. Module 1 focuses on transition and change, and helps participants develop skills in identifying and developing the supports that children and families need during transition. Module 2 focuses on transition and continuity, and helps participants develop skills in working as part of a team to provide ongoing services, support, and developmentally appropriate learning experiences. Module 3 focuses on partnerships for continuity, and helps participants develop skills to plan, implement, and evaluate transition practices and policies collaboratively with parents and key community partners. The guide's information resources section contains four types of documents: digests, summarizing fundamental information on the topics of transition, change, continuity and support; program profiles, providing descriptions of transition programs from within and outside of Head Start; hands-on activities, offering examples of concrete transition activities for individuals to try in their own home or program; and 30 resources, including books, journal articles, and videotapes.

T1 - Societal and Legal Issues Surrounding Children Born in the United States to Illegal Alien Parents. Joint Hearing on H.R. 705, H.R. 363, H.J. Res. 56, H.J. Res 64, H.J. Res. 87, H.J. Res 88, and H.J. Res. 93 before the Subcommittee on Immigration and Claims and the Subcommittee on the Constitution of the Committee on the Judiciary. House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session (December 13, 1995).
AN - 62575580; ED400046
AB - This hearing transcript presents testimony on several House resolutions regarding immigration and citizenship. Two bills propose amending the Immigration and Nationality Act to limit birthright citizenship to persons with citizen or legal resident mothers (HR 705) or to deny such citizenship to children of parents who are not citizens or permanent resident aliens (HR 363). Five joint resolutions propose to amend the Constitution to restrict birthright citizenship to persons with legal resident mothers or fathers (HJ Res 56 and 87); citizen or legal resident mothers (HJ Res 64); a citizen parent at the birth (HJ Res 88); or a citizen parent, lawfully in the United States, or with a lawful immigration status at the birth (HJ Res 93). Witnesses included: (1) several Representatives from the state of California; (2) Representatives from the states of Florida, Hawaii, and Illinois; (3) A former reporter from the "El Paso Times"; (4) university law professors; (5) Barbara Jordan, chair of the U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform; (6) Assistant U.S. Attorney General Walter Dellinger; and (7) a deputy director, Income Maintenance Bureau, San Diego County Department of Social Services. Witnesses testified that smugglers bring pregnant women into the country to give birth so their children are citizens; educational and social welfare benefits for children of illegal aliens were cited as causes. Others argued that because the 14th Amendment grant of birthright citizenship was not meant to apply to children of illegal aliens, a federal statute could end birthright citizenship; others argued that a Constitutional amendment is required to modify birthright citizenship. Appendices contain additional statements, letters, or materials submitted by witnesses. (KDFB)

T1 - Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act: A Self-Evaluation Guide for Public Elementary and Secondary Schools.
AN - 62571381; ED401688
AB - This guide is intended to assist elementary and secondary schools as they plan compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), conduct required self-evaluation and transition plans, and make appropriate modifications. The eight chapters correspond with the regulations and include many worksheets and examples. Chapter 1 briefly discusses each of the ADA's titles, especially Title II which assures access to all programs and services provided by state and local government agencies. In Chapter 2 the emphasis is on the law's definition of a "qualified individual with a disability." Chapter 3 identifies action steps toward compliance and offers a three-phase process for completing self-evaluation planning. Chapter 4 reviews the general prohibitions against discrimination contained in Title II regulations, especially schools' obligation to provide a "free and appropriate public education." Chapter 5 explains ADA provisions concerning recruitment, hiring, and other employment-related issues. Program accessibility is the focus of Chapter 6. Chapter 7 explains Title II requirements for ensuring effective communication for persons with visual, hearing, and speech disabilities. Chapter 8 reviews the enforcement procedures for Title II and the remedies available if an institution is determined not to be in compliance. The last section identifies relevant sources of information. (DB)

T1 - Hearings on "Parents, Schools and Values." Hearings before the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations of the Committee on Economic and Educational Opportunities. House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session.
AN - 62565952; ED406057
AB - These hearings transcripts present testimony regarding parents' and schools' roles in teaching values to school age children, the federal funds involved in values education, and the remedies available to parents who may object to or be offended by some of the topics taught and the vehicles used to teach these topics. Witnesses included: (1) representatives from Delaware, California, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Ohio; (2) William Bennett, former Secretary of Education; and (3) several parents, teachers, and school administrators. Testimony presented noted that parental involvement is the most important factor in helping children succeed in school. Parents want their children to be taught the basics, but trust in schools is broken when parents are shut out of the process. Schools need to reflect the values of the community. School choice improves schools and reinvolves parents. How people in school treat one another is more important than values programs. Children are moral agents who recognize right from wrong as defined by moral influences, whether from parents, teachers, friends, or television. Additional testimony conveyed parents' disagreement with the content of information conveyed in school programs for sex education and AIDS education, parents' concerns about treatment of homosexual students, and possible misuse of government funds for AIDS education.

T1 - The Evaluation of Federal Programs in Agricultural Research, Education, and Extension. Hearings before the Subcommittee on Resource Conservation, Research, and Forestry of the Committee on Agriculture. House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, Second Session (March 27, May 14, July 17, 1996).
AN - 62559770; ED401063
AB - Three House of Representatives' subcommittee hearings were held in March, May, and July 1996 to evaluate the goals, priority setting, and advisory mechanisms of federal programs in agricultural research, education, and extension. To become competitive in global markets, farmers will need to rely on the research community to provide up-to-date technology and market information. The purpose of the hearings was to establish research priorities for the 21st century, improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the federal research investment, and improve accountability through the establishment of a coordinated advisory and priority setting mechanism. Testimony was received from U.S. Senators and Representatives; Under-Secretaries from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA); and spokespersons for agribusiness associations, agricultural science associations, research institutions, land grant universities, and the Extension Service. The following topics were discussed: the role of the National Center for Agricultural Utilization and Research (Peoria, Illinois) in commercialization of agricultural products; financial and political threats to the federal government's role in agricultural research and education; research priorities related to human nutrition, new agricultural and livestock pests and diseases, food safety, and farming's environmental issues; replacing petrochemical ingredients in industrial products with agriculture-based ingredients; proposed participants and processes in setting research priorities for government funding; importance of sustainable agriculture; the needs of rural families and communities that are not usually well supported in USDA budgets and extension programs; worldwide research on consumer food preferences; structure and funding of federally funded agricultural research programs conducted by land grant universities, the USDA Agricultural Research Service, and the agribusiness industry; and the role and methods of the Cooperative Extension Service in disseminating research-based information to farmers.

T1 - Education for Sustainability: An Agenda for Action.
AN - 62557517; ED403158
AB - Understanding the principles of sustainability and the interdependence of the environment, the economy, and social systems can help individuals learn to make the changes necessary to become effective stewards of natural resources and the environment. This document describes three broad policy recommendations as to how Americans can build concepts of sustainability into educational programs, and 12 strategic action plans for implementing those recommendations. The recommendations provide a framework for a flexible strategy and a toolbox of ideas which can be tailored to educational strategies reflective of individual and community needs. Chapters are as follows: (1) "A Program for Change"; (2) "Formal Education"; (3) "Nonformal Education"; (4) "Cross-Cutting Themes"; and (5)"Moving Forward." Core themes of the program include lifelong learning, interdisciplinary approaches, systems thinking, partnerships, multicultural perspectives, and empowerment. A key feature of the agenda is the Opportunities for Partnerships section at the conclusion of each chapter, which provides names, organizations, and resources to guide future steps. A sampling of programs and successful initiatives is presented to illustrate successful cooperative efforts and partnerships. (PVD)

T1 - The Regulation of Private Schools in America: A State-by-State Analysis.
AN - 62553579; ED400609
AB - Today, a parent's right to choose a private education for his or her children is reflected in the statutes of all 50 states. State regulation of private schools, however, is not without limitations. The challenge to state legislators in regulating private schools is to draft legislation that: (1) respects the fundamental right of parents to direct the education of their children; (2) protects the states' interest in an informed citizenry but avoids interference with religious beliefs unless compelling interests are at issue; and (3) avoids comprehensive regulation of private education that would deprive parents of any choice in education. This handbook presents findings of a study, initiated by the Office of Nonpublic Education, U.S. Department of Education, that conducted a state-by-state analysis of state laws regulating private education. The study, which includes all 50 states, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and the District of Columbia, identified the following general areas of regulation advanced by state legislators: recordkeeping and reports, licensing/registration/accreditation, health and safety, curriculum, and public funding. The data show that none of the states regulates private schools in the same way. The report contains comparison charts depicting state oversight of private schools, state-mandated educational requirements, and public assistance to private schools and private school children.

T1 - Copyright Basics. Circular 1.

AB - This circular answers some of the questions that are frequently asked about copyright, a form of protection provided by the laws of the United States to authors of "original works of authorship" including library, dramatic musical, artistic, and certain other intellectual works. The Copyright Act of 1976 (title 17 of the United States Code), which came into effect on January 1, 1978, is the first general revision of U.S. copyright law since 1909; it makes important changes in the copyright system and supersedes the previous Federal copyright stature. This document includes sections on: what copyright is; who can claim it; copyright and national origin of the work; what works are protected; what is not protected by copyright; how to secure a copyright; publication; notice of copyright; transfer of copyright; international copyright protection; copyright registration; registration procedures; effective date of registration; corrections and amplifications of existing registrations; mandatory deposit for works published in the United States; use of mandatory deposit to satisfy registration requirements; who may file an applications form; application forms (for different types of publications and different purposes); mailing instructions; fees; search of copyright office records; and availability of further information.

T1 - Many Nations: A Library of Congress Resource Guide for the Study of Indian and Alaska Native Peoples of the United States.
AN - 62441490; ED424046
AB - The Library of Congress has a wealth of information on North American Indian people but does not have a separate collection or section devoted to them. The nature of the Library's broad subject divisions, variety of formats, and methods of acquisition have dispersed relevant material among a number of divisions. This guide aims to help the researcher to encounter Indian people through the Library's collections and to enhance the Library staff's own ability to assist with that encounter. The guide is arranged by collections or divisions within the Library and focuses on American Indian and Alaska Native peoples within the United States. Each section includes an introductory description, information on using the collections and their reading room, and descriptions or annotations for selected books and collections. Sections include: (1) general collections (main reading room, catalogs and Internet access, children's literature center, local history and genealogy reading room, periodicals, microform reading room, multimedia formats); (2) rare book and special collections division; (3) manuscript division (master record of manuscript collections, register, National Union Catalog of Manuscript Collections); (4) the Law Library of Congress; (5) Prints and Photographs Division; (6) Geography and Maps Division; (7) Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division; (8) Music Division and Recorded Sound Reference Center; and (9) American Folklife Center. In addition, the guide contains "gateways," thematic summaries of major Indian subject areas in the collections. Includes an index and many photographs and illustrations. (SV)

T1 - Nontraditional Education: Alternative Ways To Earn Your Credentials.
AN - 62436663; ED426235
AB - Nontraditional education credits can be earned in many ways. Some methods of assessing learning for credit are objective, such as standardized texts; others are more objective, such as a review of life experiences. Options for earning a high school diploma without spending 4 years in a classroom are as follows: General Educational Development programs; skills demonstration through the National External Diploma Program; and correspondence and distance study. The college picture includes credit through classwork or experience and college degree programs. Adults can receive college credit for what they know by passing examinations and documenting experiential learning through credit: credit for prior college coursework; credit for noncollege courses; credit by examination, including five national testing programs, college and university credit-by-exam programs, and government institute proficiency exams; and credit for experience. Nontraditional students who choose to earn a college degree should evaluate colleges' nontraditional programs based on their accreditation, program features, residency requirements, and tuition and other expenses. (A resources section lists four organizations who can provide information on programs and describes nine publications/guides to nontraditional education. Sources for additional information on all options for earning credits are provided in the text.) (YLB)

T1 - 'The Natives Are Happy': A. P. Elkin, A. O. Neville and Anthropological Research in Northwest Western Australia
AN - 61503550; 9803687
AB - Discusses A. P. Elkin's early anthropological work on Australian Aborigines in light of his relationship with A. O. Neville, the government official in charge of Aborigines in Western Australia during the late 1920s. It is argued that Elkin's research & its interpretation were strongly influenced by his wish to please Neville & to promote anthropology as an activity useful to (& fundable by) the government. Excerpts from letters & other primary materials show that Elkin's desire for government approval led him to refrain from criticizing government treatment of Aborigines, to reject researchers who were critical of that treatment, to cast anthropology as helpful to achieving white goals, & to limit the subject matter & methodology of his investigations.

T1 - Fluctuating asymmetry of chironomid larvae as an indicator of pesticide contamination in freshwater environments
AN - 19767517; 5709109
AB - One of the most widespread organisms used in the analysis of water quality have been genera of the family Chironomidae (Diptera) which display a wide range of observable sub-lethal responses to environmental stresses. These include reduction in larval growth (Kosalwat and Knight, 1987), changes in patterns of adult emergence (McCahon and Pascoe, 1991) and increased frequency of structural deformities in the antennae and head capsule of larvae (e.g., Hamilton and Saether, 1971; Hare and Carter, 1976; Wiederholm, 1984; Warwick, 1985; 1989). The incidence of larval deformities appears to be a widespread phenomenon occurring in a wide variety of chironomid genera, both free-living and tubiferous in the benthos, in response to a variety of stresses (Wiederholm, 1984; Warwick, 1989). A considerable database on types of deformities correlated with different types of stress has been assembled and a number of index systems have been developed for use in biomonitoring programs (Warwick, 1985). This technique has gained wide acceptance among environmental agencies throughout the world, primarily because it is sensitive, relatively simple and inexpensive, and has been used often in environmental assessment programs.

T1 - Lipid biomarkers for bacterial ecosystems: Studies of cultured organisms, hydrothermal environments and ancient sediments
AN - 17123918; 4431300
AB - This paper forms part of our long-term goal of using molecular structure and carbon isotopic signals preserved as hydrocarbons in ancient sediments to improve understanding of the early evolution of Earth's surface environment. We are particularly concerned with biomarkers which are informative about aerobiosis. Here, we combine bacterial biochemistry with the organic geochemistry of contemporary and ancient hydrothermal ecosystems to construct models for the nature, behaviour and preservation potential of primitive microbial communities. We use a combined molecular and isotopic approach to characterize lipids produced by cultured bacteria and test a variety of culture conditions which affect their biosynthesis. This information is then compared with lipid mixtures isolated from contemporary hot springs and evaluated for the kinds of chemical change that would accompany burial and incorporation into the sedimentary record. In this study we have shown that growth temperature does not appear to alter isotopic fractionation within the lipid classes produced by a methanotropic bacterium. We also found that cultured cyanobacteria biosynthesize diagnostic methylalkanes and dimethylalkanes with the latter only made when growing under low pCO sub(2). In an examination of a microbial mat sample from Octopus Spring, Yellowstone National Park (USA), we could readily identify chemical structures with super(13)C contents which were diagnostic for the phototrophic organisms such as cyanobacteria and Chloroflexus. We could not, however, find molecular evidence for operation of a methane cycle in the particular mat samples we studied.

T1 - Alterations in lymphocyte phenotype and function in children with shigellosis who develop complications
AN - 17088967; 3896489
AB - This study was designed to see whether alterations occur in peripheral blood mononuclear cell phenotype and function in children with Shigella dysenteriae 1 infection with complications (leukemoid reaction and/or hemolytic-uremic syndrome) and whether there are any alterations prior to the development of complications. The following groups of children (ages, 12 to 60 months) were compared: children without any infection (n = 51), children with uncomplicated shigellosis (n = 65), children admitted with complicated shigellosis (leukemoid reaction and/or hemolytic-uremic syndrome) (n = 29), and children with shigellosis who developed complications after enrollment (subsequently complicated shigellosis) (n = 12). Tests for the peripheral blood mononuclear cell phenotype (CD3, CD4, CD8, CD16, CD20, and CD25), spontaneous proliferation, and the proliferative response to phytohemagglutinin, pokeweed mitogen, and the lipopolysaccharide of S. dysenteriae 1 were performed, as were skin tests for delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH). Children who subsequently developed complications differed from other groups of children as follows: (i) the numbers of CD3 super(+) and CD4 super(+) cells were lower than in uninfected children (P < 0.05), (ii) the CD4/CD8 ratio was lower than in children with uncomplicated shigellosis (P < 0.05) and in uninfected children (P < 0.05), and (iii) the levels of spontaneous proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells were higher and DTH responses were lower than those in children with uncomplicated shigellosis (P < 0.05 and P < 0.017, respectively). Children with complications differed by having (i) increased numbers of CD3 super(-) CD16 super(-) CD20 super(-) cells (P < 0.05) compared with those in other groups of children and (ii) lower CD4/CD8 ratios (P < 0.05), higher levels of spontaneous proliferation (P < 0.05), and lower DTH responses (P = 0.005) than children with uncomplicated shigellosis. Three to five days after enrollment, the number of CD4 super(+) cells increased in children who subsequently developed complications (P = 0.025), i.e., when they developed complications and at this time their CD4 super(+) cell number was similar to that of other groups of children. Thus, lymphocyte phenotype and function are altered prior to the development of complications in children with shigellosis, and once complications develop, the pattern of alterations changes. Whether these alterations have a role in precipitating complications or whether they reflect early events underlying the development of complications remains to be elucidated.

T1 - CMSS tutorial book
AN - 17085761; 3899558
AB - This book is designed to assist users of the Catchment Management Support System (CMSS) software set up CMSS for their catchment. A major component of any CMSS application is the data-acquisition phase. This includes gathering spatial information such as stream network, land use, and land capability. It also includes determining nutrient export rates from those land uses, and specifying the management practices currently being employed or considered for those land uses within the catchment. Once all these data are collected, they are entered into CMSS and predictions of nutrient loads for the catchment can be made. Using the CMSS software is very easy and guidance is available via workshops and the CMSS Users Manual. Gathering the preliminary data for input to CMSS is more difficult and involves collecting and interpreting data from many sources, including local landholders and representatives of government agencies. This Tutorial Book describes how to go about gathering these data based on the authors' experiences with applying CMSS to many catchments within Australia.

T1 - The salt-tolerant grasses puccinellia (Puccinellia spp.) and tall wheat grass (Agropyron elongatum): A literature survey of their salt tolerance, establishment, water use, and productivity
AN - 17075627; 3895604
AB - A major management option proposed for areas affected by dryland salinity in southern Australia is to grow the grass species tall wheat grass (Agropyron elongatum) and puccinellia (Puccinellia ciliata). They are particularly useful in higher rainfall regions (>400 mm/yr) where year-round moistness of saline areas precludes the use of saltbush (Atriplex) and bluebush (Maireana) species. The success of tall wheat grass and puccinellia will depend on the selection of species/genotypes which can tolerate the salinity and water availability conditions of the region. In this report we review the available literature on salt tolerance and water use of these grasses and highlight further information required for their successful growth.

T1 - Soil survey of the Yampi Sound Training Area
AN - 17074757; 3895605
AB - A soil survey was conducted of the Yampi Sound Training Area in the Kimberley area of Western Australia in association with a vegetation survey. The soils were mapped by reference to mapped information on geological formations, classification of imaged airborne gamma-radiation data, and classification of a digital elevation map. Soil properties were determined by sampling 4 profile depths at 87 sites and measuring 6 properties for each sample. Sampling was based on geologically and radiometrically defined soil provinces, with the major vegetation patterns given by a land cover map derived from satellite imagery. The relevance of the mapped soil provinces to land use is discussed and a land suitability map of 6 classes is derived.

T1 - Pilot study into sediment tracing in the Cimanuk catchment, Java
AN - 17074726; 3895603
AB - This report details preliminary results from 14 samples collected in Indonesia by R.J. Wasson in November 1995. Major element geochemistry, magnetic minerals, and the use of fallout super(137)Cs have all been assessed. Preliminary results indicate that both mineral magnetics and major element geochemistry may be useful for distinguishing sediments derived from various parts of the Cimanuk catchment. Detectable concentrations of super(137)Cs are present in the samples, suggesting that super(137)Cs may be useful for distinguishing between subsoil and topsoil sources; however, concentrations are low and more analyses are required to properly assess this.

T1 - Automated colorimetric determination of nitrate-nitrogen and ammonium-nitrogen in water and soil samples
AN - 17073402; 3895601
AB - This report is presented in two parts. Part 1 describes a semi-automated method developed for the determination of nitrate-N which is run from a computer program set up in MS DOS. The method is based on Downes' (1978) automated procedure where nitrate is reduced to nitrite with hydrazine sulphate under alkaline conditions in the presence of a Cu super(2+)/Zn super(2+) catalyst. The method is suitable for both water and alkaline soil samples and compares favourably with the automated cadmium technique used at the CSIRO Division of Forestry chemistry laboratory in Mount Gambier, S.A. The method is linear at nitrate concentrations of 0.2 to 3.0 mg nitrate-N per litre. The standard deviation of samples containing 2 mg NO sub(3)-N per litre was 0.09 mg N per litre. Part 2 is a brief description of an ammonium-N determination method. This method is also run from a computer program set up in MS DOS and was based on the automated method of Stainton et al. (1977) using the phenol-hypochlorite reaction. The method is linear at concentrations of 0.1 to 2.5 mg ammonium-N per litre and is able to be used for both water and soil samples.

T1 - Effect of diet on the lipid composition of wild and cultured abalone
AN - 17072967; 3894581
AB - Foot-muscle tissue from wild-caught adults of the two main commercial species of Australian abalone, Haliotis laevigata and H. rubra, were analysed for fatty acid and sterol composition. Foot muscle tissue from juvenile H. laevigata and hybrid H. laevigata x H. rubra fed an artificial diet was compared with that of juvenile H. laevigata fed the green alga Ulva australis. The major fatty acids in all samples of muscle were 16:0, 18:0, 18:1(n-9), 18:1(n-7), 20:4(n-6), 20:5(n-3) and 22:5(n-3). The abundance of 22:5(n-3) is unusual as most marine animals have much more 22:6(n-3). The muscle of juvenile abalone fed an artificial diet high in total lipids and 18:2(n-6) contained elevated total lipid levels and elevated levels of 18:2(n-6) and 20:2(n-6). The muscle of abalone fed U. australis, which was high in C16 and C18(n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), contained elevated proportions of their chain-elongation products C20 and C22(n-3) PUFA, which is similar to wild-caught adult abalone. The major sterol in all samples of abalone muscle was cholesterol, irrespective of diet. The muscle of juvenile H. laevigata fed an artificial diet high in 24-methylcholest-5-enol and 24-ethylcholest-5-enol contained elevated proportions of these sterols compared with the muscle of juveniles fed U. australis and wild-caught adult abalone. Observed differences in fatty acid and sterol compositions were attributed to the accumulation of lipid in the foot muscle of abalone fed an artificial diet.

T1 - Demonstration of a lack of synergistic effect of rotavirus with other diarrheal pathogens on severity of diarrhea in children
AN - 17068927; 3891868
AB - The severity of group A rotavirus (RV) diarrhea was compared with that of mixed infections of RV with diarrheagenic Escherichia coli, Vibrio cholerae O1, and Shigella species by a scoring system. The severity of mixed infections of RV and E. coli was the same as that of infections with RV alone. RV infections mixed with V. cholerae and Shigella species mimicked cholera and shigellosis, respectively.

T1 - Unification of the genera Deleya (Baumann et al. 1983), Halomonas (Vreeland et al. 1980), and Halovibrio (Fendrich 1988) and the species Paracoccus halodenitrificans into a single genus, Halomonas, and placement of the genus Zymobacter in the family Halomonadaceae
AN - 17067098; 3892163
AB - We determined the 16S rRNA sequences of the type strains of species belonging to the genera Deleya and Halomonas for which no sequence data were available previously. We also determined the 16S rRNA sequence of ACAM 21, a representative strain of a biovar of Halomonas subglaciescola. The members of the genera Deleya, Halomonas, and Halovibrio and the misnamed organism Paracoccus halodenitrificans formed a monophyletic group within the gamma subclass of the Proteobacteria. The 16S rRNA sequences of the members of this group contained all of the signature features previously identified as characteristic of the group. The frequency of occurrence of these signature features among other members of the gamma subclass has remained stable during the expansion of the database of rRNA sequences. The levels of 16S rRNA sequence similarity between members of the species belonging to the genera Deleya, Halomonas, and Halovibrio and the misnamed organism P. halodenitrificans ranged from 91.5 to 100%; however, the level of sequence similarity for members of well-resolved monophyletic subgroups which might represent separate genera was 98%. At a sequence similarity level of 98% 10 subgroups were resolved, but these groups could not be differentiated on the basis of chemotaxonomic or phenotypic characteristics. In this paper we propose that members of the genera Deleya, Halomonas, and Halovibrio should be placed in a single genus, the genus Halomonas, and we emend the description of this genus. The resulting new combinations are Halomonas aquamarina (Deleya aquamarina Akagawa and Yamasato 1989), Halomonas variabilis (Halovibrio variabilis Fendrich 1988), Halomonas venusta (Deleya venusta Baumann et al. 1983), Halomonas cupida (Deleya cupida Baumann et al. 1983), Halomonas pacifica (Deleya pacifica Baumann et al. 1983), Halomonas marina (Deleya marina Baumann et al. 1983), Halomonas halophila (Deleya halophila Quesada et al. 1984), and Halomonas salina (Deleya salina Valderrama et al. 1991). We transfer the misnamed organism P. halodenitrificans to the genus Halomonas as Halomonas halodenitrificans comb. nov. (P. halodenitrificans Robinson and Gibbons 1952). The genus Zymobacter is closely related to the genus Halomonas. While the genus Zymobacter can be clearly distinguished from the genus Halomonas, these two taxa share important genotypic, chemotaxonomic, and phenotypic characteristics. We propose that the genus Zymobacter should be transferred to the family Halomonadaceae and emend the description of the family Halomonadaceae. The 16S rRNA sequence of Halomonas subglaciescola ACAM 21 was significantly different from the 16S rRNA sequence of the type strain of Halomonas subglaciescola (strain ACAM 12) but was nearly identical to the 16S rRNA sequence of Halomonas halodurans.

T1 - A mayfly from tropical Brazil capable of tolerating short-term dehydration
AN - 17060967; 3885105
AB - The mayfly Cloeodes hydation (Baetidae, Ephemeroptera) inhabits ephemeral, rain-filled rock pools as well as pools, springs, and brooks of longer duration in savanna woodlands of the northern Pantanal region, Brazil. Larvae have the ability to tolerate repeated exposure to air for up to 9 h at a time, as confirmed by laboratory experiments. This tolerance is apparently advantageous in the highly dynamic, unpredictable habitat conditions, especially when pools are successively wet and dry almost daily during the end of the rainy season. Survival of larvae depended on the presence of sediment, and was always followed by moulting. Inducible and repeated moulting showed that numbers of moults and instars were not always indicative of development. We present data on C. hydation abundance in 2 rock pools throughout 1 y. From these data, larval development was estimated to require between 19 and 25 d (24-29 degree C).

T1 - Controls on super(222)Rn variations in a fractured crystalline rock aquifer evaluated using aquifer tests and geophysical logging
AN - 17052583; 3883657
AB - Concentrations of super(222)Rn in ground water may vary considerably within megascopically homogeneous rocks over relatively short distances. Calculations indicate that different hydraulic apertures of water-bearing fractures may account for variations in dissolved super(222)Rn concentration measured in domestic water wells completed in fractured Pikes Peak Granite, assuming that all other factors influencing dissolved super(222)Rn concentrations are constant. Concentrations of dissolved super(222)Rn range from 124 to 840 kBq m super(-3) [3,360 to 22,700 picocuries per liter (pCi L super(-1))] within a 2.5 km super(2) well field. Aquifer tests show that transmissivities range from 0.072 to 160 m super(2) day super(-1) within the well field. Acoustic televiewer and heat-pulse flow meter logging of four wells reveals that, despite tens to hundreds of fractures that intersect each well, a single fracture supplies all the flow to three wells, and one fracture provides 65% of the flow to the fourth well. Aquifer tests indicate that two pairs of the four wells are hydraulically connected. Type-curve interpretation of early-time data from aquifer tests reveals classic half-slope behavior on log-log plots of drawdown versus time for two wells, suggesting linear flow to a single fracture. Drawdown versus time for the other two wells indicates radial or pseudo-radial flow, which suggests a higher degree of fracture interconnectivity near those boreholes. Hydraulic apertures calculated using the cubic law are 0.024 and 0.038 cm for producing fractures in the first hydraulically connected well pair and 0.011 and 0.020 cm for flowing fractures in the second well pair. Assuming uniform distribution of super(226)Ra along fracture walls and long residence time of water relative to super(222)Rn decay, the ratio of fracture apertures should equal the inverse ratio of super(222)Rn concentration in each well. Assuming 50% error in hydraulic aperture estimation and 10% analytical uncertainty in super(222)Rn measurement, differences in super(222)Rn concentration between wells in the hydraulically connected pairs can be attributed solely to differences in hydraulic aperture. Different hydraulic apertures, however, do not explain different super(222)Rn concentrations between well pairs. Allowing for measurement error, a cubic meter of rock transfer from 1.3 to 20 times more super(222)Rn to ground water in the first pair of wells than in the second pair. Nonuniform distribution of super(226)Ra along fracture walls, heterogeneous emanating power in the rock-water system, or short ground-water residence time along the transmissive fracture network may account for the difference between well pairs.

T1 - Effects of harvest stage and light on the biochemical composition of the diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana
AN - 17051590; 3880694
AB - The marine diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana (Hustedt, clone 3H) Hasle and Heimdal was cultured under three different light regimes: 100 mu mol photon m super(-2) s super(-1) on 12:12 h light: dark (L:D) cycles; 50 mu mol photon m super(-2) s super(-1) on 24:0 h L:D; and 100 mu mol photon m super(-2) s super(-1) on 24:0 h L:D. It was harvested during logarithmic and stationary phases for analysis of biochemical composition. Across the different light regimes, protein (as % of organic weight) was highest in cells during logarithmic phase, whereas carbohydrate and lipid were highest during stationary phase. Carbohydrate concentrations were most affected by the different light regimes; cells grown under 12: 12 h L:D contained 37-44% of the carbohydrate of cells grown under 24:0 h L:D. Cells in logarithmic phase had high proportions of polar lipids (79 to 89% of total lipid) and low triacylglycerol ( less than or equal to 10% of total lipid). Cells in stationary phase contained less polar lipid (48 to 57% of total lipid) and more triacylglycerol (22 to 45% of total lipid). The fatty acid composition of logarithmic phase cells grown under 24:0 h L:D were similar, but the 100 mu mol photon m super(-2) s super(-1) (12:12 h L:D) cells at the same stage contained a higher proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and a lower proportion of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids due to different levels of 16:O, 16: 1(n-7), 16:4(n-1), 18:4(n-3), and 20:5(n-3). With the onset of stationary phase, cells grown at 100 mu mol photon m super(-2) s super(-1) (both 12:12 and 24:0 h L:D) increased in proportions of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids and decreased in PUFAs. Concentrations (% organic or dry weight) of 14:0, 16:0, 16:1(n-7), 20:5(n-3), and 22:6(n-3) increased in cells of all cultures during stationary phase. The amino acid compositions of cells were similar irrespective of harvest stage and light regime. For mariculture, the recommended light regime for culturing T. pseudonana will depend on the nutritional requirements of the animal to which the alga is fed. For rapidly growing bivalve mollusc larvae, stationary-phase cultures grown under a 24:0 h L:D regime may provide more energy by virtue of their higher percentage of carbohydrate and high proportions and concentrations of energy-rich saturated fatty acids.

T1 - A mutation in which alanine 128 is replaced by aspartic acid abolishes dimerization of the b-subunit of the F sub(0)F sub(1)-ATPase from Escherichia coli
AN - 17051056; 3881926
AB - Site-directed mutagenesis was used to investigate the roles of a short series of hydrophobic amino acids in the b-subunit of the Escherichia coli F sub(0)F sub(1)-ATPase. A mutation affecting one of these, G131D, had been previously characterized and was found to interrupt assembly of F sub(0)F sub(1)-ATPase. To extend this work, aspartic acid was substituted for each one of the residues from positions 124 to 132. The properties of mutants in this series are consistent with the region from Val super(124) to Gly super(131) forming an alpha -helix. Two of the mutations, V124D and A128D, resulted in a similar phenotype to the G131D mutation. This suggested that Val super(124), Ala super(128), and Gly super(131) form a helical face which may have a role in inter- or intrasubunit interactions. This was tested by overexpressing and purifying the cytoplasmic domains of the wild type and A128D mutant b-subunits. Sedimentation equilibrium centrifugation indicated that the wild type domain formed a dimer whereas the mutant was present as a monomer.

T1 - Expression of the isopentenyl transferase gene is regulated by auxin in transgenic tobacco tissues
AN - 17049566; 3881897
AB - The isopentenyl transferase gene (ipt) from Agrobacterium tumefaciens was isolated and introduced, via a disarmed binary vector, into tobacco using the Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated gene transfer system. The expression of the ipt gene was monitored by RNA hybridization, western blotting and cytokinin analysis. The addition of auxin to the media rapidly reduced the level of cytokinins in the transgenic tissues and this was associated with a reduction in IPT mRNA and protein levels. It is concluded that the hormone auxin can regulate expression of a gene involved in biosynthesis of the second hormone cytokinin. Although exogenous benzyladenine did not directly affect ipt gene expression, it did antagonize the effect of auxin on levels of cytokinins and IPT mRNA and protein.

T1 - Dioxin: Reassessing the risk
AN - 17043852; 3872819
AB - For over 25 years, scientists have studied dioxin, a potent animal carcinogen. Yet opinions remain divided with regard to its human health risk. Based on new data, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been updating its assessment of dioxin risk since 1991. In December 1994, EPA submitted for review a final draft report to its Science Advisory Board (SAB), a group of independent experts. Several months later, the news media reported highly critical comments by some SAB members, raising concerns among those who want to ensure that EPA's decisions are based on sound science. The SAB completed its review last September and approved most of the report. However, it withheld approval of two chapters pending extensive revisions. The House Committee on Science held a hearing on the dioxin reassessment December 13, 1995, and the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations have directed the agency to incorporate SAB recommendations into its report. This paper briefly describes the state of scientific knowledge about dioxin, the reassessment project, the SAB review, scientific issues that remain unresolved, EPA dioxin regulations under development and recommendations of the Committees on Appropriations.

T1 - Surface water pretreatment using floating media filter
AN - 17041211; 3878441
AB - Laboratory-scale experiments were conducted in contact flocculation filtration using a dual media filter operating in the upflow, saturated mode. The filter media was lighter than water; thus, the bed floated. Since coarse media remained at the bottom, the flow direction was upflow, which had the added advantage of the flow being in the direction of grain compression. Polypropylene and Polystyrene were the optimum combination of media, which due to their large density difference did not intermix even under severe agitation, thus eliminating the media intermixing problem common to dual media filters. The influent concentrations were kept constant and the flow velocity, and filter media size and shape were varied. The headloss variation along the filter, the influent quality of two filter layers, and the effluent quality were studied. Filter runs exceeding 40 h were achieved before reaching breakthrough at conventional rapid sand filtration rates. Floating media obtained turbidity removal per unit headloss in comparison to sand media, and floating media are proposed as a prefilter in surface-water filtration.

T1 - An assessment of lesions in bay scallops Argopecten irradians attributed to Perkinsus karlssoni (Protozoa, Apicomplexa)
AN - 17039991; 3863510
AB - Lesions found in bay scallops Argopecten irradians imported into Atlantic Canada for culture were attributed to a parasite Perkinsus karlssoni. It appears, however, that stages from several organisms were combined to create the life cycle of P. karlssoni. The ultrastructure of the agent in lesions of bay scallops is not documented adequately to diagnose affinities to the genus Perkinsus. Furthermore, there was discrepancy as to whether P. karlssoni enlarged in fluid thioglycollate medium, and the shape and structure of the prezoosporangia as well as the movement and life span of the zoospores were not consistent with the genus Perkinsus. P. karlssoni cannot be considered as a species of Perkinsus.

T1 - Financial analysis of new vineyard developments in the MIA
AN - 17029230; 3868761
AB - New vineyard developments in the MIA are currently being installed on what were originally large-area (rice) farms. These farms generally have clay soils with saline water tables within 2 m of the soil surface. More-efficient irrigation systems can reduce reliance on on-farm evaporation basins required to store water from sub-surface drains. This paper compares costs and benefits of 5 different irrigation systems - (1) Flood, (2) Overhead Sprinkler, (3) Undervine Micro-jet, (4) Drip, and (5) Riverina Twin Furrow - to assess which system is most financially attractive and the most environmentally sustainable. The financial feasibility of planting one of 5 grape varieties is also examined under each irrigation system option. Vine row width is also examined to assess the effect on potential extra yields (and therefore extra income). The financial analysis enables the feasibility of each development to be gauged using the criteria of Net Present Value (NPV) and Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR). The net and cumulative cash flows can also be determined over the analysis period to determine the Net Cash Flow per hectare (NCF/ha), Break-Even Time (BET), and Expected Peak Debt (EPD). The cash-flow budget incorporates a program called (at)Risk which enables a range of variables to be modelled simultaneously. The Drip system is the most environmentally sustainable, producing no drainage effluent, and it has the highest water-use efficiency. The Drip and Flood systems produce similar financial results in terms of NPV, Break-Even time, and steady-state NCF/ha, with or without the installation of sub-surface drainage. The Flood system is considerably cheaper to install than the Drip system, but the Drip system's low annual operating costs outweigh its initial expense and make it the most financially and environmentally attractive system. Chardonnay, with the highest NPV, is the grape variety that is currently the most financially attractive, given MIA average yields and prices (taking into account future demand). The next most financially attractive variety is Shiraz, followed by Semillon, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Muscat Gordo Blanco. The choice of grape variety had more influence on the financial attractiveness of the new vineyard development than the choice of irrigation system. By decreasing row width to 3.0 m, individual vine yield was not reduced and total returns (steady state NCF/ha) could be increased by about $3500/ha/year using Drip or Flood irrigation systems in combination with Chardonnay.

T1 - Lucerne daily water use and capillary upflow using weighing lysimeters: Effects of soil type and groundwater salinity
AN - 17027976; 3868757
AB - The majority of studies on capillary upflow from shallow watertables have employed nonsaline groundwater. Here, we used weighing lysimeters planted with lucerne on two undisturbed soils -Hanwood loam (L1) and Mundiwa clay loam (L2) - to measure the upflow from an initially non-saline watertable in 1990/91 and 1991/92; measurements were repeated in 1992/93 with a more saline watertable in an otherwise unchanged system. The effect of the saline watertable introduction in 1992/93 was to significantly reduce upflow. Upflow accounted for 55% (in L1) and 22% (in L2) of evaporation in 1990/91, 49% and 44% in 1991/92, and 25% and 13% in 1992/93. Even when account was made for the different season in 1991/92 compared to 1992/93, upflow values were still markedly different. The reduction in upflow due to the saline watertable occurred even though there was only a small reduction in root length density immediately above the watertable. During a drying cycle, the onset of water deficit stress stimulated downward root growth. Roots adapted by continuing to supply sufficient water to match evaporative demand for a considerable period following cessation of irrigation, but this did not continue once the upper soil layers were dry. We conclude that plants prefer to obtain and use water from shallow soil storage.

T1 - Analysis of differential gene expression by display of 3' end restriction fragments of cDNAs
AN - 17017893; 3849458
AB - We have developed an approach to study changes in gene expression by selective PCR amplification and display of 3' end restriction fragments of double-stranded cDNAs. This method produces highly consistent and reproducible patterns, can detect almost all mRNAs in a sample, and can resolve hidden differences such as bands that differ in their sequence but comigrate on a gel. Bands corresponding to known cDNAs move to predictable positions on the gel, making this a powerful approach to correlate gel patterns with cDNA data bases. Applying this method, we have examined differences in gene expression patterns during T-cell activation. Of a total of 700 bands that were evaluated in this study, as many as 3-4% represented mRNAs that are up-regulated, while approximately 2% were down-regulated within 4 hr of activation of Jurkat T cells. These and other results suggest that this approach is suitable for the systematic, expeditious, and nearly exhaustive elucidation of subtle changes in the patterns of gene expression in cells with altered physiologic states.

T1 - The impact of work practices on fatigue in long distance truck drivers
AN - 16512212; 4409782
AB - Twenty seven professional truck drivers completed a 12 hour, 900 km trip under each of three driving regimes--a relay (staged) trip, a working hours regulated one-way (single) trip, and a one-way (flexible) trip with no working hours constraints. The results indicated that none of the driving regimes prevented fatigue and that the pattern of fatigue experienced during the trips appeared to be related to pretrip fatigue levels.

T1 - Runoff and sheet erosion from tillage trials under artificial rainfall at Harden, New South Wales
AN - 16272030; 4283275
AB - Artificial rainfall was applied to 6-m-long plots after the harvest of a canola crop in experiments on a grazed cropping system using a rotation that alternated wheat with lupins and canola. Three tillage treatments were selected for the experiments: one was a direct-drill treatment, while the other two involved the use of a reduced tillage practice during the preparation of the seed bed. Tillage treatment was found to have no substantial effect on runoff and sediment concentration resulting from sheet erosion during the post-harvest period. At sowing time, tillage again had no significant effect on sediment concentration but did have a significant effect on runoff. The roughness produced by the tillage provided a substantial capacity to store water and detached soil particles in surface depressions immediately after cultivation, and the decline in this surface roughness during rainfall was sufficiently small to cause little or no runoff when 1 h of 70 mm/h rain was applied to a cultivated surface. The results support indications from SOILOSS, a model that provides local implementation of the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE), that reduced-till may be as effective as direct-drill at conserving soil at this site. However, since the experiments were restricted to sheet erosion, and no experiments were performed between sowing and harvest or with other crops in the rotation, the results do not provide unconditional support for the SOILOSS result. Despite the result of the experiments reported here, soil erosion risk is likely to be substantially reduced on a field scale through the use of tillage practices which, like the direct-drill treatment, maintain anchored and unanchored crop residue during the fallow and post-sowing periods. Data were also collected in relation to an examination of the ability of the Soil Water Infiltration and Movement (SWIM) model to predict runoff during the post-harvest period. SWIM tended to underpredict runoff but the difference between the observed amount of runoff and that predicted by SWIM was statistically not significant.

T1 - Method-induced variations in soil erodibility in erosion experiments with rain-impacted flow
AN - 16272003; 4283269
AB - Laboratory experiments on erosion by rain-impacted flow were performed on crusted surfaces that had either been eroded or not been eroded previously by rain-impacted flow. Differences in the erodibility of the surfaces were obtained between the 2 methods. The differences in erodibility were associated with the development of a layer of coarse pre-detached material on the previously eroded surfaces. The influence of this layer on erodibility is such that changing the experimental procedure may influence the results obtained from experiments designed to determine soil erodibility under rain-impacted flow.

T1 - Evaluation of biomarkers of exposure to 2-chlorosyringaldehyde and simulated ECF bleached eucalypt pulp effluent
AN - 16223014; 4219501
AB - Substitution of chlorine dioxide for molecular chlorine as a bleaching agent in hardwood pulp mills has lowered the organochlorine content of effluents, but produces several chlorinated phenolics with unknown effects on the environment. This study examines the effects of 2-chlorosyringaldehyde (2-CSA), quantitatively the major chlorinated phenol found in elemental chlorine free (ECF) bleached kraft eucalypt pulp effluent, on a suite of biomarkers in sand flathead. Fish received an intraperitoneal injection of 2-CSA at doses of 0.15, 1.5, 15 or 75 mg kg super(-1). After 4 d, no changes with dose were found in the activities of the detoxification enzymes ethoxycoumarin-o-deethylase (ECOD), ethoxyresorufin-o-deethylase (EROD) or UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UDPGT). Cytochrome P450 content and serum sorbitol dehydrogenase (SSDH) activity were also unchanged with dose. A subsequent experiment applied the same suite of biomarkers to sand flathead exposed to simulated ECF bleached eucalypt pulp effluent, at concentrations of 0.5, 2 and 8% (v/v). Similarly, there were no significant differences between effluent-exposed and control fish for ECOD, EROD, P450, UDPGT or SSDH. Liver somatic index was also not significantly different between exposed and control fish. Results indicate that liver detoxification enzyme activities, which are widely used biomarkers of pulp mill effluent exposure, may not be useful biomarkers for effluents from mills using ECF bleaching.

T1 - Cobalt and chromium concentrations in patients with metal on metal total hip replacements
AN - 16048808; 4088083
AB - There has been a resurgence of interest in the use of metal on metal bearings in total hip arthroplasty. Although the use of metal on metal bearing couples would eliminate or substantially reduce particulate polyethylene generation (depending on the presence or absence of polyethylene in the implant system), there is concern about the potential for increased particulate and ionic metal generation in comparison with polyethylene on metal bearings. These metallic degradation products may be transported away from the implant site and distributed systemically. Chromium concentrations in the serum and urine and cobalt concentrations in the serum were measured in subjects with cobalt chromium alloy metal on metal total hip replacements and in controls without implants. Eight subjects with long term (> 20 years) McKee-Farrar total hip replacements had 9-fold elevations in serum chromium, 35-fold elevations in urine chromium, and at least 3-fold elevations in serum cobalt concentrations in comparison with controls. Six subjects with short term (< 2 years) metal on metal surface replacement arthroplasties had 3-fold elevations in serum chromium, 4-fold elevations in urine chromium, and 4-fold elevations in serum cobalt concentrations in comparison with subjects with McKee-Farrar implants. Although the toxicologic importance of these trace metal elevations has not been established, serum and urine metal concentrations may be useful markers for the tribologic performance of metal on metal bearings.

T1 - Evaluation of landfarm remediation of hydrocarbon-contaminated soil at the Inveresk railyard, Launceston, Australia
AN - 16030229; 4094945
AB - Costing of landfarm bioremediation of hydrocarbon-contaminated soil (2700 m super(3) material) at a disused railyard site in Tasmania, Australia is reported. The landfarm area (8000 m super(2)) was enclosed in an impermeable clay embankment and where necessary the base was also rolled with clay. Microbial inoculation was not deemed to be necessary since suitable degrading biota were found to be present in site samples prior to commencement of the landfarming. Fertilizer amendment comprised primarily ammonium sulphate and superphosphate to give a C:N ratio (TPH:fertilizer) of 28:1 and a C:P ratio of 200:1. The soil was turned regularly and watered as required for the 12-month duration of the operation. Over this period levels of TPH showed a linear decline from a mean of 4644 mg /kg (SD = 1252 mg/kg) to near 100 mg/kg or less, with greatest losses being in the chain lengths C10-C28. The costing was determined to be $A13.40c per m super(3) ($A10.30c per tonne), which is at the lower end of the spectrum of reported landfarming costs. Costing of such operations is important since the reported economics will influence others' choice of bioremediation techniques.

T1 - Surface runoff, soil and nutrient losses from farming systems in the Australian semi-arid tropics
AN - 15993502; 4079985
AB - Most soils suitable for dryland agriculture in north-west Australia occur in the Daly Basin. These are sesquioxidic soils which include red, yellow and grey earths, and soils related to yellow and red earths. The potential, for these arable soils to be degraded by highly erosive rainfalls, common to the region, is high. Farming practices strongly influence the soil surface characteristics (vegetation cover, roughness, soil strength), which in turn control surface runoff, and sediment detachment and transport. In studies conducted during 1984-89 in the Daly Basin, conventionally tilled catchments, produced 1.5-2 times more runoff and lost 1.5-6 times more soil than their no-tillage counterparts (all catchments were within soil conservation banks). In these conventionally tilled catchments, soil loss was less than or equal to 8.1 t/ha.year. Other studies in the region have shown that, without soil conservation banks, soil loss can be around 100 t/ha.year under conventional tillage. Little work, however, has been undertaken on farms in the Australian semi-arid tropics to study the movement of nutrients and herbicides (in ionic and adsorbed forms) and further research is warranted.

T1 - Conservation tillage and ley farming in the semi-arid tropics of northern Australia - some economic aspects
AN - 15981384; 4081564
AB - This paper examines some aspects of the economics of conservation tillage and ley farming in the semi-arid tropics of northern Australia. The distribution, value and major trends in the enterprises comprising the agricultural sector of the semi-arid tropics are discussed in an industry context. The likely economic benefits for the farmer from the adoption of conservation tillage and ley farming come from mulch retention and increased yields. These benefits vary with the frequency of grain cropping, the legume species used and the commodity price relativities. The benefits are likely to be larger in drier growing seasons. Data on other factors, such as soil type and seasons, were inadequate for economic analysis. Some ley farming systems are more profitable than single enterprises in the short term. In the long term, the best choice for sustainable farming systems in the semi-arid tropics appears to be a legume pasture system or a legume pasture-crop system. Results to date from ley farming studies show that experimental designs need to be modified to incorporate higher cropping frequencies and more comprehensive joint product measures in order to allow a more critical economic assessment. Additional benefits to society from the adoption of conservation tillage and ley farming are likely to come from minimising adverse on-farm and off-farm effects of agricultural activities. There are strong arguments for continuing support for research and development in ley farming technology and a joint sharing of the costs between farmers and the community generally.

T1 - Prediction of lake levels using water balance models
AN - 15956290; 4061296
AB - Simple water balance models can be used to predict excess water and when the depth-volume relationship for a lake is known, these models can be used to predict variations in lake level. In the lake Goran study area annual rainfalls have varied significantly. The straight line of best fit shows a very slow increase over 116 years. An examination of the seasonal distribution of the rainfall reveals significant changes over that period. The October to December and the January to March quarters have shown significant reductions and subsequent increases during the recording period. In the early 1990s the April to June rainfalls have shown a significant increase and, coupled with comparatively low evaporation and transpiration at that time of the year, this has lead to significant increases in runoff. The excess water has been determined using a WATBAL type model for the current land-use distribution. The depth of the lake has been modelled using rainfall and excess water as inputs and evaporation as output. Given the simplicity of the model the agreement between measured and predicted lake levels is very good.

T1 - Coliform die-off rate constants in a high rate algal pond and the effect of operational and environmental variables
AN - 15881287; 4033755
AB - High rate algal ponds (HRAPs) are an adaptation of waste stabilisation ponds, in which increased treatment efficiency and reduced pond area are achieved by optimising conditions for algal photosynthetic oxygen production. If the treated effluent is subsequently to be reused for irrigation of crops and recreational areas, from a public health viewpoint it is important to reduce the risk of contamination by pathogenic organisms. The microbiological quality of effluents is traditionally assessed by enumerating the coliform group of organisms. Die-off rate constants (K sub(b)) of 0.35 - 2.34 d super(-1) were measured for E. coli in outdoor ponds operating on synthetic sewage mix with acetate as the carbon source (260 kg COD ha super(-1) d super(-1)) at a range of depths from 12 to 34 cm. There were significant positive effects of pH, irradiance and pond depth on K sub(b). Light penetration throughout the pond depth was calculated and shown to be a useful parameter for the prediction of K sub(b). Multiple regression equations describing the influence of these environmental parameters on die-off rate constant were derived. Dry matter concentration negatively affected light penetration but had a positive influence upon pH. Pond operating conditions to maximise E. coli die-off are discussed.

T1 - Fish consumption and human health: Developing partnerships between risk assessors and resource managers
AN - 15869447; 4026627
AB - Until recently, fisheries managers have been primarily concerned with maintaining the quality and extent of fishery benefits and healthy populations of fish. Although fish consumption has long been promoted as a healthy behavior, it is apparent that through consumption humans may be exposed to chemicals that accumulate in fish tissues. Public health officials are often faced with the need to evaluate health risks associated with consumption of fish from individual fisheries and may, as a result, require additional information about the behavior of anglers who use those fisheries. Factors that affect potential health risks due to chemical contamination include the species, age, and size of fish being harvested for consumption, frequency of fish meals, parts of the fish being consumed, concentrations of contaminants in the edible tissues, and demographic characteristics of the angler population. Although information concerning preferred species, catch and harvest rates, and sizes and ages of fish caught and harvested from managed fisheries are often readily available, current data collection methodologies generally fall short of providing all of the information necessary for risk assessors to evaluate consumption behaviors and resulting health risks. In this paper I discuss ways in which fisheries data are used to estimate human health risks and recommend that fisheries managers use modified creel survey forms to collect site-specific data on harvested fish and consumption patterns of anglers in order to meet the dual needs of resource management and the protection of public health.

AB - A method to recognize environmentally sensitive areas for management of the fish fauna is proposed. As a case study, the methodology was applied to classify the aquatic environments of Baixada de Jacarepagua, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil. Data about the fish assemblages of the region were obtained from existing studies and in samples carried monthly between March/1992 and January/1993. Local ecosystems were grouped into lagoons (Laguna da Tijuca, Laguna de Marapendi and Laguna de Jacarepagua), rivers and wetlands. River sections were classified in headwaters and lowlands. Wetlands were arranged into temporary or permanent swamps. Statistical methods of association were applied to identify ecological groups of species and to assess the affinity between the ecosystems. The environmental sensitivity was considered as the resilience capacity of the different systems and the importance of each ecosystem in the conservation of endemic/endangered taxa and of biodiversity. In order to obtain the sensitivity, data on the richness of the region, and of each ecosystem, and the proportion of primary, eucenes, exclusive and endangered taxa were converted into sensitivity determinants' factors (endemism, particularity, vulnerability, resilience, biodiversity), calculated for each environment. The total sensibility of each habitat was obtained using the multiatribute value theory (MVAT), producing scores that are positively associated with the degree of restriction that each environment presents to the establishment of human activities. In the Baixada de Jacarepagua region, the decreasing gradient of sensibility was represented by the following ordination headwaters, temporary swamps, lowlands, Laguna da Tijuca, permanent swamps, Laguna de Marapendi and Laguna de Jacarepagua.

T1 - SMAC: Spatial optimisation model for analysing catchment management
AN - 15865414; 4024086
AB - The ways in which people use land tends to follow economic motivations. Environmental considerations are often ignored until resource degradation reaches the stage of economic significance. Environmental side-effects of land-use activities are not confined to the area where they apply. In the case of agricultural land use, the way in which farmers use their land may impact on the profitability of neighbouring properties, other properties in the region, and the welfare of the wider community. The question arises as to which land-use practices would be financially viable for the farms as well as ensure environmental sustainability of agricultural land use. This paper outlines the framework of SMAC, a modelling tool that is being developed to analyse the economic and environmental sustainability of land use in catchments. It uses a spatial optimisation approach in a dynamic context. The methodology is applied to the Liverpool Plains catchment in northern New South Wales, Australia. Here, rising saline groundwater tables cause extensive soil salinisation. The underlying hydrological imbalance has been triggered by European-style land-use practices. The conceptual approach of the model combines farm behaviour and catchment response as two process levels. It seeks to provide assistance in developing a land-use strategy for sustainable agriculture in the catchment and provides a tool for assessing the implications of policy changes to enhance the process.

T1 - Effects of endosulfan toxicity and food level on growth and crest morphology of Daphnia cephalata
AN - 15858701; 4012953
AB - Many species of Daphnia possess a crest or cephalic expansion. The crest reduces the daphnids' vulnerability to invertebrate predation. Crest height is an ecologically important and easily measured morphological parameter. Toxicologically-induced variation in crest growth may have important consequences for daphnid populations. The effects of exposure to the organochlorine pesticide endosulfan and high or low food levels on crest morphology and life-history parameters of D. cephalata were measured in a laboratory bioassay. Parameters that were measured included length at first reproduction, first brood size and age at maturity. The effects of endosulfan and food level on absolute crest size and relative crest growth also were measured. Exposure to endosulfan at 98 mu g/L and low food level significantly reduced length and brood size at first reproduction. Age at maturity was not affected by endosulfan but was increased at the low food level. Absolute crest growth was reduced at 22 mu g/L endosulfan and at low food level, however relative growth of the crest was not affected by either factor. The results suggest that crest growth may be an important end-point for determining the no-effect concentrations for environmental pollutants. The No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) of endosulfan to D. cephalata based on growth and reproduction was 49 mu g/L. The NOEC based on crest height was <22 mu g/L.

T1 - Application of constructed wetlands to treat some toxic wastewaters under tropical conditions
AN - 15847884; 4016414
AB - This study evaluated the potential of a free water surface constructed wetland system in treating some toxic wastewater (i.e. phenolic and heavy metals). In a temperature range of 22-30 degree C, the constructed wetland units, whose hydraulic retention times (HRT) were 5-7 days, could remove more than 99% of the input phenol when they were operated at or below the organic loading rates (OLR) and influent phenol concentrations of 270 kg COD/(ha.d) and 400 mg/l, respectively. The effluent dissolved oxygen (DO) levels were 4-7 mg /l at OLR of 40-140 kg COD/(ha.d), but these DO levels decreased to 0.2-0.3 mg/l when the OLR were increased to 165-270 kg COD/(ha.d). Under similar operating conditions, the constructed wetland units could remove more than 99% of the applied chromium (Cr) and nickel (Ni), when either the Cr or Ni influent concentrations were 1-50 mg /l. The phenolic and heavy metal compounds were found to accumulate mostly at the roots of Typha, followed by the stems and leaves.

T1 - Treatment and disposal of domestic sewage sludge and nightsoil sludge for Bangkok
AN - 15847858; 4016411
AB - In the recent past, treatment and disposal of sewage sludge has become an expensive and environmentally sensitive problem in western countries. It is becoming a growing problem worldwide with its focus on the megacities in the newly developed countries, since sludge production will continue to increase as new sewage treatment plants are built and environment quality standards become more stringent. With some traditional disposal routes coming under pressure, the challenge facing the wastewater treatment authorities is to find cost-effective and environmentally sound solutions whilst responding to increasing public awareness. This paper describes the development of a plan for integrated management of municipal sludges (sewage sludge, nightsoil/septage sludge) which has high security for medium- and long-term sludge utilization and disposal as the goal. It concludes that incineration and agricultural use should be implemented and operated in parallel as first priority options.

T1 - DNA typing of hops (Humulus lupulus) through application of RAPD and microsatellite marker sequences converted to sequence tagged sites (STS)
AN - 15817499; 4003336
AB - Both random amplified polymorphic DNA and microsatellite repeat sequences were investigated as DNA markers for distinguishing hop cultivars. Microsatellite sequences converted to STS markers proved to be most successful. The relative abundance of microsatellite repeat sequences in the hop genome varied depending on the sequence class. Of the repeat types investigated the dinucleotide repeats (GA) sub(n) and (GT) sub(n) are the most highly represented in the hop genome. Microsatellite repeat sequences in hops have been shown to be highly polymorphic and are very informative as STS molecular markers. A DNA typing system using sequence-tagged microsatellite site markers has been developed which will not only be useful for hop cultivar identification but also marker assisted breeding and quality control purposes.

T1 - Modeling applications
AN - 15813197; 4000444
AB - The concept of predictive microbiology has developed rapidly through the initial phases of experimental design and model development and the subsequent phase of model validation. A fully validated model represents a general rule which may be brought to bear on particular cases. For some microorganism/food combinations, sufficient confidence now exists to indicate substantial benefits to the food industry from use of predictive models. Several types of devices are available to monitor and record environmental conditions (particularly temperature). These "environmental histories" can be interpreted, using predictive models, in terms of microbial proliferation. The current challenge is to provide systems for the collection and interpretation of environmental information which combine ease of use, reliability, and security, providing the industrial user with the ability to make informed and precise decisions regarding the quality and safety of foods. Many specific applications for predictive modeling can be developed from a basis of understanding the inherent qualities of a fully validated model. These include increased precision and confidence in predictions based on accumulation of quantitative data, objective and rapid assessment of the effect of environmental conditions on microbial proliferation, and flexibility in monitoring the relative contribution of component parts of processing, distribution, and storage systems for assurance of shelf life and safety.

T1 - A blinded comparison of two methods of viral susceptibility testing: Plaque reduction assay versus microplate in situ ELISA
AN - 15801634; 3995856
AB - Viral susceptibility testing has been shown to have a role in the management of patients with herpes simplex infections. In this study, 25 isolates of herpes simplex virus representing a broad spectrum of acyclovir-susceptible and -resistant phenotypes were tested using a microplate in situ enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (MISE). This method is objective and more rapid than the traditional plaque reduction assay (PRA). The previously derived PRA results were not known at the time of testing with the MISE method. The correlation coefficient between PRA and MISE was 0.85. Agreement on sensitive or resistant was reached for 21 of 25 isolates. The standardised microplate in situ ELISA was found to be an acceptable alternative to the plaque reduction assay.

T1 - Transpiration by trees from contrasting forest types
AN - 15792733; 3988693
AB - Temperate rainforests and eucalypt forests of coastal south-eastern Australia are distributed differentially with aspect. Rainforests, in which Ceratopetalum apetalum D.Don and Doryphora sassafras Endl. are the dominant tree species, occur on slopes of southerly aspect and along gully bottoms, whereas eucalypt forests, dominated by Eucalyptus maculata Hook., occur on upper slopes of northerly aspect and on ridge tops. Whether transpiration rates of trees differed across the rainforest-eucalypt forest boundary on north and south facing aspects was tested by measuring stem sap flow in trees in a single catchment during winter, summer and autumn. Differences in transpiration rate by trees in these stands were due to various combinations of biological and physical factors. Firstly, mean maximum transpiration rate per tree (crown area basis) was greater in rainforest on the gully bottom where deep soil water from down-slope drainage was greater than in eucalypt forest located upslope on the northern aspect. By contrast, there was no difference between maximum transpiration rates in rainforest and eucalypt forest on the southern aspect. Variation in transpiration rate between seasons was not related to variation in surface soil moisture content (<0.35 m depth). Secondly, transpiration rates per unit crown area in rainforest at the gully bottom were associated with higher leaf area indices than upslope on the northern aspect. However, in rainforest upslope on the southern aspect, higher transpiration rates were not associated with higher leaf area indices. Thirdly, trees in eucalypt forest maintained similar sapwood moisture contents in summer as in winter and autumn, whereas sapwood moisture contents declined in rainforest trees in summer, suggesting that eucalypts had access to water from deep within the soil profile which was unavailable to more shallow rooting rainforest trees. Fourthly, higher modal and maximal sap velocities in eucalypt trees were partly due to wider xylem vessels and resulted in faster maximum sap flow and greater daily total water use in all seasons on both aspects than in rainforest species. Finally, as atmospheric demand for water increased from winter to summer, transpiration rates were mediated by stomatal closure as indicated by lower average midday shoot conductance to water vapour during summer than other seasons. The interaction between microenvironment, which determines water availability, and physiological attributes, which determine tree water acquisition and use, may contribute to the differential distribution of rainforest and eucalypt forest with aspect in south-eastern Australia.

T1 - Estuarine ichthyoplankton ecology in relation to hydrology and zooplankton dynamics in a salt-wedge estuary
AN - 15791519; 3988704
AB - The ichthyoplankton assemblage of the Hopkins River estuary, Victoria, was dominated by estuarine taxa that included demersal (goby, gudgeon) and pelagic (black bream, estuary perch, anchovy) species. The two seasonal peaks in fish larvae abundance were related to (1) the spring/summer zooplankton increase that occurred after flooding of the estuary and was comprised predominantly of copepod nauplii, thereby providing a good prey field for very young fish larvae, and (2) the autumn zooplankton maxima, which would provide a wide selection of copepod stages and meroplankton and promote dietary partitioning and flexibility among older larval stages. The two peaks in fish larvae abundance occurred well before and well after the attainment of maximum water temperature in the estuary. Goby, gudgeon, estuary perch and anchovy larvae were in the plankton over an extended period coinciding with the more stable conditions of salt-wedge presence and maximum zooplankton densities. The spawning of black bream and anchovies in the estuary was clearly related to physical conditions, such as salinity and water temperature, and habitat-although spawning of both species also occurred at times of high concentrations of potential prey organisms for their larvae. Adults of all the above fish species appear to have evolved spawning strategies that are adapted to the average hydrological and biological conditions in the estuary that would lead to the enhanced survival of their larvae. With the exception of the black bream, it appears that a ubiquitous and prolonged rather than a synchronous and confined spawning strategy is more widely used by estuarine-spawning fishes in the Hopkins River estuary. This type of spawning strategy, combined with the generally high density of food available to fish larvae in estuaries, suggests that the match-mismatch hypothesis of Cushing may be less relevant in the estuarine than in the marine environment.

T1 - Phenotypic and DNA relatedness between nematode symbionts and clinical strains of the genus Photorhabdus (Enterobacteriaceae)
AN - 15772188; 3981801
AB - Bacterial strains isolated from wide ranges of nematode hosts and geographic sources and strains isolated from human clinical specimens were used to assess the taxonomic structure of the genus Photorhabdus. The following two methods were used: DNA relatedness and phenotypic characterization. Analysis of the DNA relatedness data revealed that all of the strains studied were congeneric and that the genus Photorhabdus is, on the basis of DNA relatedness data, more homogeneous than the other genus of nematode-symbiotic bacteria, the genus Xenorhabdus. In contrast to previous reports, only two DNA relatedness groups were identified in the genus Photorhabdus. These groups corresponded to the symbiotic strains and the clinical strains. There appeared to be some subgroups within the symbiotic strain group on the basis of the interactions of the strains with nematodes, which corresponded to some extent with the DNA relatedness data. However, there were significant ambiguities in the DNA relatedness data, and this group could not be subdivided on the basis of DNA relatedness data or phenotypic data. The distinct functional differences within and between the DNA relatedness groups of symbiotic Photorhabdus strains indicated that there are biologically significant subgroups within the genus Photorhabdus that cannot be defined at this time. Further investigation of the taxonomy of Photorhabdus by using different approaches and a suitably wide range of strains is recommended. However, it is clear that the clinical strains form a recognizable subgroup within the genus even though no formal subtaxon can be defined at this time.

T1 - Source and distribution of dissolved radium in the Bega River estuary, southeastern Australia
AN - 15768256; 3975754
AB - Measurements of the activities of the four naturally occurring radium isotopes in the surface water and porewater of an estuary have yielded information on the release of radium from sediments and on the extent of surface water-porewater interaction in the estuary. Under low-flow conditions, the non-conservative behaviour of dissolved radium in the estuary is almost entirely due to the flux of radium from estuarine bed sediments. Radium accumulates in bottom sediment porewater, and is then mixed with estuarine surface water, probably as a result of tidal action. It is shown experimentally that the enrichment of the short-lived isotopes ( super(224)Ra and super(223)Ra) relative to super(226)Ra in estuarine porewater can be explained by the repeated leaching of radium from bottom sediments by saline water, and the rapid regeneration of the short-lived isotope activity from their sediment-bound parent nuclides. The leaching of radium from bottom sediments is apparently occurring on a time scale which is long (weeks-months) compared with the super(224)Ra and super(223)Ra half-lives, indicating that the amount of ion-exchangeable radium adsorbed to the sediments is large compared with the amount dissolved in porewater. By applying a simple 2-D steady-state multi-box model, super(224)Ra and super(223)Ra surface water and porewater concentrations have been used to estimate the daily flux of porewater crossing the sediment-water interface in the Bega estuary. This flux is found to be about 15% of the estuary volume.

T1 - Effect of multiplicity of infection on Listeria monocytogenes pathogenicity for HeLa and Caco-2 cell lines
AN - 15760776; 3982276
AB - The significance of multiplicity of infection (moi) for invasiveness and intracellular multiplication of Listeria monocytogenes in Caco-2 and HeLa cell monolayers was investigated. A low moi (1:1) resulted in recovery of significantly more L. monocytogenes when these bacteria were used to infect either cell line. At high moi (100:1), the percentage recovery of bacteria was comparatively low, even after extensive invasion and intracellular multiplication. Microscopic analysis of Giemsa- and immunofluorescent-stained infected monolayers revealed extensive cell disruption and exposure of the internalised bacteria to the bactericidal effect of gentamicin. By contrast, a low moi resulted in minimal cytopathic effects and evidence of cell to cell spread by L. monocytogenes was consistently observed in HeLa and J774, but not in Caco-2 cell lines. Nevertheless, the use of HeLa and Caco-2 cell monolayers enabled a clear distinction to be made between invasive (L. monocytogenes) and non-invasive Listeria spp. (L. innocua, L. ivanovii, L. seeligeri, L. grayi, L. welshimeri and L. monocytogenes LLO19). The use of a low moi with HeLa cell monolayers provided a reliable tissue-culture model of infection for L. monocytogenes.

T1 - Measurement of UVA exposure to solar radiation
AN - 15756103; 3982321
AB - Exposure to solar UVA (320--400 nm) radiation can damage DNA and lead to skin disorders. Conventional dosimetry using a single piece of polysulfone or diglycol carbonate (CR-39) cannot provide accurate measurement of the biologically effective irradiance for erythema for the UVA waveband. A package employing four dosimeters (polysulfone, nalidixic acid, 8-methoxypsoralen and phenothiazine) has been shown to be effective for use as a spectrum evaluator for evaluating the UVA source spectrum. In Brisbane, on a horizontal position, the spectrum evaluator requires about 5 min exposure in summer and about 20 min in winter. This amounts to about 10 mJ cm super(-2) of erythemal UV radiation.

T1 - Transgenic white clover. Studies with the auxin-responsive promoter, GH3, in root gravitropism and lateral root development
AN - 15752728; 3975996
AB - We report an improved method for white clover (Trifolium repens) transformation using Agrobacterium tumefaciens. High efficiencies of transgenic plant production were achieved using cotyledons of imbibed mature seed. Transgenic plants were recovered routinely from over 50% of treated cotyledons. The bar gene and phosphinothricin selection was shown to be a more effective selection system than nptII (kanamycin selection) or aadA (spectinomycin selection). White clover was transformed with the soybean auxin responsive promoter, GH3, fused to the GUS gene ( beta -glucuronidase) to study the involvement of auxin in root development. Analysis of 12 independent transgenic plants showed that the location and pattern of GUS expression was consistent but the levels of expression varied. The level of GH3:GUS expression in untreated plants was enhanced specifically by auxin-treatment but the pattern of expression was not altered. Expression of the GH3:GUS fusion was not enhanced by other phytohormones. A consistent GUS expression pattern was evident in untreated plants presumably in response to endogenous auxin or to differences in auxin sensitivity in various clover tissues. In untreated plants, the pattern of GH3:GUS expression was consistent with physiological responses which are regarded as being auxin-mediated. For the first time it is shown that localised spots of GH3:GUS activity occurred in root cortical tissue opposite the sites where lateral roots subsequently were initiated. Newly formed lateral roots grew towards and through these islands of GH3:GUS expression, implying the importance of auxin in controlling lateral root development. Similarly, it is demonstrated for the first time that gravistimulated roots developed a rapid (within 1 h) induction of GH3:GUS activity in tissues on the non-elongating side of the responding root and this induction occurred concurrently with root curvature. These transgenic plants could be useful tools in determining the physiological and biochemical changes that occur during auxin-mediated responses.

T1 - Financial evaluation of options for managing tile drainage water to meet environmental constraints
AN - 15749959; 3974867
AB - This document compares (for both new and existing vineyard developments) two irrigation management options, each with two sets of constraints, that aim to reduce the salt load leaving farms in sub-surface drainage water. The options considered are drip or flood irrigation, and the constraints are holding drainage water on farm in an evaporation basin or discharging it to the surface drainage system (at a cost to the farmer). Over a 15-year period, drip irrigation was found to be the most financially attractive method of drainage management when discharge of saline drainage water incurs a charge, and also under an on-farm retention constraint. This was subject to the size of the basin being at least 6.5% for the drip system and 10% for the flood system. Drip irrigation is relatively expensive to install, but its running costs, including labour and water costs, are considerably lower. On-farm storage is a more costly option than paying for discharge. All options become more profitable as vineyard area increases.

T1 - Location of colonies in royal penguins Eudyptes schlegeli: Potential costs and consequences for breeding success
AN - 15749566; 3974760
AB - The factors affecting breeding success in seabirds has been the topic of debate for many decades. However, little attention has been paid to the location of a penguin colony (aside from some Antarctic colonies, such as Emperor Penguins Aptenodytes forsteri), its distance from the water and consequent extra energetic cost to breeding penguins. At Macquarie Island, Royal Penguin Eudyptes schlegeli colonies are found at a variety of altitudes from sea level, to sites approximately 200m above sea level (e.g. at Caroline Cove). The added energetic burden of colonies located away from the beach is yet to be assessed. Taking into account the number of times that an individual penguin needs to return to its nest over a breeding season, the distance and altitude of a colony from the water could substantially increase the total energetic cost of breeding, and possibly affect the breeding success of individuals. It was with this question in mind that we monitored the time taken for Royal Penguins to travel to an inland colony. From the shortest and longest time taken by Royal Penguins to reach the colony, we attempted to assess some of the factors which might affect the variation in time taken. These data were used to calculate a hypothetical energetic cost to the penguins due to the location of this colony and to assess whether location might impact on breeding success.

T1 - Habitat disturbance and marina development: An assessment of ecological effects. 1. Changes in primary production due to dredging and marina construction
AN - 15749277; 3976876
AB - Potential impacts on primary production were estimated for an 800-slip marina previously planned for Davids Island, located in the extreme western portion of Long Island Sound, New York. Macroalgal and microalgal production in the area of the proposed marina was analyzed on the basis of six depth zones ranging from an existing seawall (at about +2.2 m MLW) seaward to a depth of -2.4 m MLW. Productivity measurements were based on in situ super(14)C uptake studies, chlorophyll a determinations, and varying light exposures within the euphotic zone that were the result of turbidity and semidiurnal tides. The surface area of each depth zone was multipled by the corresponding estimate of daily production calculated for eight dominant macroalgae and microalgae, and summed to estimate existing production in the proposed marina. Similarly, post-construction production was estimated by applying the calculated daily production to the appropriate areas of hard substrate (breakwater, pilings, etc.) in the euphotic zone. Pre- and post-construction macroalgal production values were 50,608 and 42,152 g C/d, respectively. This represents a 17% reduction in macroalgal production. It should be noted, however, that production on the seafloor of the marina was not accounted for. Consequently, reductions in macroalgal production that might occur are likely overestimated. Microalgal production constituted less than 3% of total primary production in the nearshore areas of Davids Island. The pre- and post-construction microalgal production values were 1,542 and 743 g C/d, respectively. This represents a 48% reduction in microalgal production in unconsolidated sediment. However, microalgal production would likely occur on hard substrates in the marina. Overall, pre- and post-construction estimates of primary production were remarkably similar, suggesting that production on hard substrates in the marina would compensate for lost production from deepening of the nearshore zone during construction.

T1 - Life history of the Onopordum capitulum weevil Larinus latus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
AN - 15746321; 3975380
AB - The population structure and stage-specific survival of the capitulum weevil, Larinus latus, a potential control agent for weedy Onopordum thistles in Australia, was studied in its native range in Greece. Although fecundity of this univoltine insect was low (35.4 eggs/female), survival was relatively high, with 45% of eggs reaching adulthood when protected from predators and parasitoids, and 23% surviving when exposed to these natural enemies. Other mortality factors of importance for immature stages were a failure to establish, due largely to oviposition by females on inappropriate sites on the thistle capitula, and inter- and intraspecific competition for larval resources. Once emerged, adult losses due to overwintering mortality and net migration were estimated at a further 48%. Despite these losses there was a net doubling of the population at the study site between Onopordum flowering seasons. The data suggest that movement of adults occurs both within and between patches and that variability in population size relative to the resource base is low. Overall, L. latus may be considered a K-strategist which forms relatively stable populations over a fragmented habitat and which maintains its population integrity through a certain degree of annual redistribution. The implications of these data for the potential effectiveness of L. latus as a biological control agent of weedy Onopordum spp. are discussed.

T1 - Minimising FILTER area required to treat sewerage effluent while maintaining phosphorus balance
AN - 15745873; 3974865
AB - FILTER (Filtration and Irrigated cropping for Land Treatment and Effluent Reuse) is a novel technique for reducing nutrients in sewerage effluent below levels recommended by the Environment Protection Agency for discharge to surface water bodies. The success of the technique at different sites depends on the selection of the FILTER design and operational practices to suit the on-site soil and hydrological conditions. Computer management systems based on optimisation techniques could assist wastewater managers to design and operate FILTER plots efficiently. Based on preliminary field trial results from a FILTER plot at Griffith City Council sewerage works, phosphorus balance was identified as the main factor in minimising FILTER area, which would in turn reduce capital costs. A dynamic programming model was therefore developed to determine the minimum area for maintaining phosphorus balance on FILTER plots. Here, the model formulation and preliminary analysis of the model output are presented. The minimum area required to maintain phosphorus balance for the modelled site conditions at the Griffith site is 116 ha. However, if only the crop rotations that maximise phosphorus uptake were used on all irrigation blocks, the area could be reduced to 86 ha. Data analysis shows that if the total phosphorus uptake capacity of the crops grown in 6 cropping phases exceeds 290 kg/ha, the area required is not constrained by the phosphorus uptake capacity but by the maximum hydraulic loading rate in the winter phase.

T1 - Sediment tracing using mineral magnetism in the Molonglo/Queanbeyan River system
AN - 15745007; 3974868
AB - Using environmental magnetism to determine, at river confluences, sidestream sediment contributions, we show that both the concentration and magnetic grain size of ferrimagnetic minerals in the sediment must be taken into account. Where the difference in magnetic grain size between upstream and sidestream sediments is small, the use of parameter cross plots or bulked magnetic ratios is generally not appropriate and the use of mass (concentration) magnetic values may be better. A difference between the methods is that cross plots require a wide range of mass magnetic concentrations in each branch (with the upstream and side stream sediments having different magnetic grain sizes), whereas the mass values procedure does best with a very limited (but different) range of concentrations at the upstream and side stream branches, but with similar magnetic grain sizes. For the cross plots in particular, the most appropriate magnetic parameters are likely to be different for different particle sizes. Examination of certain magnetic ratios indicates magnetic grain size and, consequently, the most appropriate parameters to use in the cross plots. The downstream trends in sediment magnetics in the Queanbeyan River very clearly reflected the change from the granitic lithology of the upper area to the sedimentary lithology further downstream; this showed up as changes in magnetic grain size and in magnetics/particle size relationships. Because the lithology of the whole Molonglo catchment is sedimentary, the major downstream trends were changes in concentration of magnetic minerals; that is, the magnetic grain sizes and magnetics/particle size relationships showed no consistent downstream changes.

T1 - PTRACK and STREAMv2.0: Tools for empirical analysis of steady flux fields
AN - 15744980; 3974866
AB - The lack of a uniquely defined streamfunction for solutions to the three-dimensional Laplace and Poisson equations forces the use of less-direct methods in classifying and quantifying the topologies of solution flow regimes. Particle-tracking techniques, using advecting massless point particles, are commonly used in such circumstances. This report describes the development and application of two tools based on such particle-tracking techniques. The first, PTRACK, is a simple Eulerian particle-tracking code designed to handle input velocity distributions calculated by standard finite-difference codes. The second, STREAMv2.0, is a superset of PTRACK with built-in logic for locating dividing streamsurfaces and storing their geometries in ASCII form for later imaging/rendering. Whereas each tool is written to handle specific input and output file formats, the modular nature of the code ensures that the task of altering the code to handle new formats is small. Applications of the two tools are discussed and results are presented.

T1 - Oviposition choice by the Onopordum capitulum weevil Larinus latus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) and its effect on the survival of immature stages
AN - 15741220; 3975099
AB - Female Larinus latus lay eggs into the capitula of their Onopordum spp. host plants from the onset of capitulum development until the completion of flowering. This tight linkage between insect life-history and plant development optimised larval survival, apart from some initial asynchrony between the readiness of the females to oviposit and the suitability of the very small capitula to physically support eggs. Eggs were laid on bracts and stems of capitula or directly in the florets, when these became available. Both the location of the egg and time of oviposition influenced mortality factors such as egg and larval parasitism, egg desiccation and larval establishment. Overall, survival of eggs laid later in the season into florets was higher, although the adults that emerged were smaller. The change in choice of oviposition site that occurs at the onset of flowering, not only favours survival, but ensures more efficient resource use by the larvae. This occurs because sequential flowering of Onopordum spp. drives a sequential oviposition pattern and spreads the egg load more evenly over the available capitula, reversing a trend earlier in the season to clump eggs that were laid directly on the bracts. Other potential constraints, such as capitulum size, absolute egg density and previous egg-laying do not play a major role in determining the oviposition pattern of L. latus. Larval survival was positively correlated with capitulum size and not strongly influenced by egg density. Competition for resources only appeared to play a role in smaller capitula, and manifested itself in a reduction in the size of emerging adults rather than the death of immatures. In the absence of strong interspecific competition, the oviposition behavior of L. latus has become geared to maximising resource use for larvae (i.e. its own potential competitiveness) rather than minimising interactions with other members of the capitulum endophage guild.

T1 - In vitro interference with hepatocellular transport of taurocholate by 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoro-ethane
AN - 15739265; 3973169
AB - In recent years workers in our laboratory have shown that several industrial chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents interfere with the transport of bile acids by hepatocytes and this interference may account for the raised concentration of serum bile acids that has been observed after occupational exposure to solvents. There has been concern about the effects on workers of a selective solvent used in degreasing electrical equipment, 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane (FC 113). However, this compound has not been investigated for effects on bile acid transport. Therefore we undertook the present study to examine the direct in vitro effects of FC 113 on uptake and efflux of bile acids by isolated rat hepatocytes. FC 113, at non-cytotoxic doses after a 20-min equilibration time, showed significant (P < 0.05) inhibitory effects on the initial rate of uptake of taurocholate (TC), whereas accumulation of TC over an extended incubation time was not affected. Kinetic analysis revealed a non-competitive inhibition of TC uptake as evidenced by a decline in V sub(max) and an unaltered K sub(m). The initial rate of efflux of TC and the continuous efflux of this model substrate from preloaded cells incubated with different doses of solvent were not significantly different from those of controls. However, the highest dose of solvent inhibited the process of efflux at the early time points. The data suggest that FC 113 interferes with bile acid transport in a reversible manner similar to that of the chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons. It would be expected, therefore, that this solvent would cause an increase in serum bile acids in exposed workers.

T1 - The evolution of Ace Lake, Antarctica, determined from sedimentary diatom assemblages
AN - 15696012; 3970959
AB - The sediments in Ace Lake in the Vestfold Hills, East Antarctica, contain a continuous sequence of diatom frustules that record the lake's history since its formation during the retreat of continental ice more than 9200 years ago. Frustules from six indicator groups; Pinnularia microstauron, Nitzschia cylindrus, Nitzschia curta, Eucampia antarctica, a freshwater Stauroneis species and several centric species in a sediment core were used to determine the sequence of the lake's evolution. The history of the lake falls into five stages. Ace Lake began as a marine inlet influenced by dynamic mixing of ocean and meltwater inputs. As the ice sheet retreated, isostatic uplift isolated the lake allowing it to be flushed by meltwater input from the retreating ice sheet. Over the course of 800 years ( similar to 9200-8400 super(14)C yr B.P.) the lake became meromictic supporting a freshwater diatom assemblage. Approximately 6700 years ago, coinciding with Antarctic sea level maxima, diatom assemblages indicate that seawater flooded over the sill into Ace Lake disturbing the freshwater meromixis. The sediments in this period were laminated and contained elemental sulphur suggesting that the marine input was limited in extent and energy. Approximately 5500 years ago this marine input ceased and the lake again became a meromictic basin which stabilised over 1700 years to become the lake that it is today and has been with little change for about the past 4000 years.

T1 - An investigation into greywater reuse for urban residential properties
AN - 15689566; 3965430
AB - Continuing moves towards full cost recovery for potable water and the impending privatization of water supplies in the Melbourne area have enhanced public interest in the reuse of wastewater, and particularly the domestic use of greywater. Victoria University of Technology, together with support from Melbourne Water and the Department of Health and Community Services, has been investigating the practicalities, costs and social attitudes of using greywater in and around the home. Four "typical" Melbourne homes were selected and plumbed to utilize greywater for toilet flushing and garden irrigation. Social surveys were conducted by mail and phone to homeowners to determine perceived attitudes towards greywater reuse. Greywater from baths, showers, laundry troughs and washing machines is being examined for physical, chemical and microbiological parameters to determine the potential health and environmental risks associated with reuse. Soil tests were also undertaken on gardens to determine any long-term detrimental effects that might occur as a result of using greywater. This paper describes the greywater testing, results of filtration and filter designs, appropriate disinfectants, and physical findings to date. The two-year project is due for completion early in 1995.

T1 - Growth kinetics of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in batch and fed-batch cultivation using sugarcane molasses and glucose syrup from cassava starch
AN - 15687631; 3965907
AB - Growth kinetics of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in glucose syrup from cassava starch and sugarcane molasses were studied using batch and fed-batch cultivation. The optimum temperature and pH required for growth were 30 degree C and pH 5.5, respectively. In batch culture the productivity and overall cell yield were 0.31 g L super(-1) h super(-1) and 0.23 g cells g super(-1) sugar, respectively, on glucose syrup and 0.22 g L super(-1) h super(-1) and 0.18 g cells g super(-1) sugar, respectively, on molasses. In fed-batch cultivation, a productivity of 3.12 g L super(-1) h super(-1) and an overall cell yield of 0.52 g cells g super(-1) sugar were achieved in glucose syrup cultivation and a productivity of 2.33 g L super(-1) h super(-1) and an overall cell yield of 0.46 g cells g super(-1) sugar were achieved in molasses cultivation by controlling the reducing sugar concentration at its optimum level obtained from the fermentation model. By using an on-line ethanol sensor combined with a porous Teflon registered tubing method in automating the feeding of substrate in the fed-batch culture, a productivity of 2.15 g L super(-1) h super(-1) with a yield of 0.47 g cells g super(-1) sugar was achieved using glucose syrup as substrate when ethanol concentration was kept at a constant level by automatic control.

T1 - Hepatoprotective effects of the shark bile salt 5 beta -scymnol on acetaminophen-induced liver damage in mice
AN - 15684979; 3965812
AB - The hepatoprotective effect of the shark bile salt 5 beta -scymnol has been studied in the model of acute hepatotoxicity induced by administration of acetaminophen (APAP, paracetamol). 5 beta -Scymnol at doses of 20, 35, and 70 mg/kg intraperitoneally (ip) decreased significantly the serum activity of alanine aminotransferase, sorbitol dehydrogenase, and lactate dehydrogenase (p < 0.05) caused by APAP treatment (350 mg/kg ip) alone. The highest dose of 5 beta -scymnol remained hepatoprotective when administered 4 hr after the APAP overdose. N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) is protective against APAP-induced hepatotoxicity at 250 and 500 mg/kg (ip) when administered up to 3 hr after APAP overdose, as shown by a significant reduction in serum enzyme activity. Coadministration of 5 beta -scymnol (70 mg/kg) and NAC (250 mg/kg) also reduced serum enzyme levels and histopathological effects; however, a similar level of hepatoprotection was conferred by 5 beta -scymnol treatment alone. In addition, 5 beta -scymnol has potent hydroxyl radical quenching activity as it markedly inhibited deoxyribose degradation in a ferrous/ascorbate Fenton reaction system. These results indicate a possible role for the use of 5 beta -scymnol, either alone or concomitant with NAC, in the prevention of hepatic necrosis following toxic doses of APAP.

T1 - Uncertainty and variation in indirect exposure assessments: An analysis of exposure to tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin from a beef consumption pathway
AN - 15682600; 3966380
AB - Indirect exposures to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and other toxic materials released in incinerator emissions have been identified as a significant concern for human health. As a result, regulatory agencies and researchers have developed specific approaches for evaluating exposures from indirect pathways. This paper presents a quantitative assessment of the effect of uncertainty and variation in exposure parameters on the resulting estimates of TCDD dose rates received by individuals indirectly exposed to incinerator emissions through the consumption of home-grown beef. The assessment uses a nested Monte Carlo model that separately characterizes uncertainty and variation in dose rate estimates. Uncertainty resulting from limited data on the fate and transport of TCDD are evaluated, and variations in estimated dose rates in the exposed population that result from location-specific parameters and individuals' behaviors are characterized. The analysis indicates that lifetime average daily dose rates for individuals living within 10 km of a hypothetical incinerator range over three orders of magnitude. In contrast, the uncertainty in the dose rate distribution appears to vary by less than one order of magnitude, based on the sources of uncertainty included in this analysis. Current guidance for predicting exposures from indirect exposure pathways was found to overestimate the intakes for typical and high-end individuals.

T1 - Tropical gastrointestinal and hepatic infections
AN - 15682275; 3971845
AB - Recent information about the pathophysiology and epidemiology of tropical gastrointestinal and hepatic infections is reviewed, and progress towards the development of an effective cholera vaccine is discussed. Advances have also been made in treatment strategies directed against traditional, emerging and re-emerging pathogens, including typhoid fever, that are more efficacious, convenient and cost-effective. Vibrio cholerae O139 Bengal emerged as a second aetiological agent of cholera in south Asia in early 1993, and replaced V. cholerae O1 as the predominant cholera strain. Helicobacter pylori, which causes transient hypochlorhydria and atrophic gastritis, is highly prevalent in the developing countries.

T1 - Plant virus DNA replication processes in Agrobacterium: Insight into the origins of geminiviruses?
AN - 15674890; 3957906
AB - Agrobacterium tumefaciens, a bacterial plant pathogen, when transformed with plasmid constructs containing greater than unit length DNA of tomato leaf curl geminivirus accumulates viral replicative form DNAs indistinguishable from those produced in infected plants. The accumulation of the viral DNA species depends on the presence of two origins of replication in the DNA constructs and is drastically reduced by introducing mutations into the viral replication-associated protein (Rep or C1) ORF, indicating that an active viral replication process is occurring in the bacterial cell. The accumulation of these vital DNA species is not affected by mutations or deletions in the other viral open reading frames. The observation that geminivirus DNA replication functions are supported by the bacterial cellular machinery provides evidence for the theory that these circular single-stranded DNA viruses have evolved from prokaryotic episomal replicons.

T1 - A positive screen for cloning PCR products
AN - 15674481; 3957917
AB - We have developed a positive screen for cloning PCR products based on translational activation of lacZ. A vector with a translationally deficient lacZ alpha gene has been made by deletion of the Shine-Dalgarno sequence and initiation codon. The Shine-Dalgarno sequence and initiation codon are incorporated into one of the PCR primers to allow complementation by the PCR product of the inactive lacZ alpha gene, which results in blue transformed bacterial colonies. This screen allows more efficient detection of clones containing inserts made by PCR.

T1 - Soil moisture simulation: Achievements of the RICE and PILPS intercomparison workshop and future directions
AN - 15673210; 3961689
AB - Soil moisture simulation in current landsurface schemes is diverse: in terms of the realism (and complexity) of the parameterizations and in terms of the resulting predictions. Even after careful adjustment, the range in soil moisture among the results from the 14 schemes compared for the HAPEX-MOBILHY (S. France) site's 1.6 m soil layer remains around 100 mm (the annual precipitation for HAPEX-MOBILHY being 856 mm). Results show that the partitioning of surface available energy into sensible and latent heat fluxes is closely coupled to the partition of precipitation into evaporation and runoff plus drainage. Runoff seems to be grossly (30-40%) underestimated by 13 of the 14 participating schemes but incomplete observations do not allow a full evaluation. Runoff from the nearly saturated soil outside the main growing season differs significantly among landsurface schemes although these differences do not greatly affect soil moisture values themselves. Transpiration operates at different rates depending upon the initial soil water content as well as the scheme formulation. The implications are far-reaching: (1) landsurface schemes forced by the same atmospheric conditions reached different equilibrium states; and (2) response times differ for schemes with different structures and different parameterizations. In combination, these two conclusions mean that observational data limited to a few weeks or months cannot be used for validation unless the initial conditions are known very precisely. Soil moisture remains an ill-defined, and inconsistently and, generally, inaccurately predicted quantity.

T1 - The need for dietary mineral supplementation for Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, cultured in a semi-intensive system
AN - 15673137; 3961221
AB - A study was conducted to evaluate the need for dietary mineral supplementation of Nile tilapia (O. niloticus) cultured under a supplementary feeding regime. Thirty sex-reversed all male Nile tilapia (23g plus or minus 0.7) were stocked in 1 m3 netcages suspended in an earthen pond fertilized weekly with urea and triple super phosphate at rates of 4 kg N and 1 kg P ha -1, respectively. The fish were fed experimental diets supplemented with a complete mineral premix (control) and with incomplete mineral premixes in which specific macro (Ca, P, Mg, Na, K) and micro-minerals (Fe, Zn, Mn, I) were omitted from the mineral premix. Among the minerals studied, the addition of phosphorus was found to significantly affect tilapia weight gain, feed conversion ratio, and protein efficiency ratio.

T1 - Soil moisture: A critical focus for global change studies
AN - 15672756; 3961685
AB - The scientific and human dimensions of global change have many overlapping themes which offer a focus on processes occurring at the continental surface. Soil moisture is of critical importance to the physical processes governing energy and water exchanges at the land/air boundary. Soil moisture controls the extent to which plants can exploit sunlight in photosynthesis and the effectiveness with which agriculture, forestry and freshwater resources can be developed. The importance of the soil moisture to many, diverse communities has resulted in a very large collection of numerical models all of which simulate soil moisture. This paper outlines why and how a series of soil moisture simulation intercomparisons were conducted in a one-year exercise jointly sponsored by the International Geosphere Biosphere Programme and the World Climate Research Programme.

T1 - Ranking irrigation management alternatives by multicriterion analysis
AN - 15670496; 3962239
AB - Selection of the best alternative plan in irrigation development strategies is examined in the multiobjective context. Three conflicting objectives - net benefits, agricultural production and labour employment - are considered. The procedure combines multiobjective optimization, cluster analysis, and multicriterion decision making (MCDM) methods. Five MCDM methods, ELECTRE-2, PROMETHEE-2, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), Compromise Programming (CP) and Multicriterion Q-Analysis (MCQA-2) are used in the evaluation. Spearman rank correlation test is employed to assess the correlation between them. The methodology resulted in the selection of the best alternative plan when applied to a case study of the Sri Ram Sagar Project, Andhra Pradesh, India.

T1 - The phytoplankton periodicities of two warm-climate lakes subject to marked seasonal variability
AN - 15666115; 3955684
AB - The phytoplankton periodicity of a tropical upland reservoir in Nigeria (Liberty Dam, Jos Plateau) and a temperate-type lake (L. Naranbagh) from the Kashmir Himalaya were compared. Variations in the phytoplankton communities in the water-bodies were both quantitative and qualitative. Liberty Dam conformed to the oligotrophic-desmid plankton type whilst in L. Naranbagh, phytoplankton resembled the eutrophic chlorococcales-diatom plankton type. Contrary to the general belief of muted (or lack of) seasonal changes in tropical regions, phytoplankton succession in the Jos reservoir was pronounced with dense persistence of some species for relatively short periods. The most striking fluctuations, typical of many temperate waters, were characteristic of L. Naranbagh with a build-up of plankton during summer and autumn. Variability in photosynthetic productivity was related to shifts in the climate-dependent population densities. The seasonal growth of the Jos phytoplankton reflected the alteration from the dry 'Harmattan' (December-February) to wetter (May-September) periods. These are analogous to the winter (December-February) and summer (June-August) seasons of the Kashmir Himalayan Valley. Phytoplankton associations and periodicities in each of the two warm-belt lakes were strongly driven by their respective local environments, including especially the marked seasonality of the climatic variables (rain, wind and solar radiation). Detailed comparisons of adequate long-term data from tropical and temperate waters are still required.

T1 - Salt and water movement in the Chowilla floodplain
AN - 15660719; 3942729
AB - Results of a number of studies of salt and water movement in a saline semi-arid River Murray floodplain (Chowilla anabranch) are reported. The studies were: an investigation of the major ion and stable isotope chemistry of the underlying alluvial aquifer (Monoman Formation), and the adjacent unconfined (Pliocene Sands) and confined (Murray Group) regional aquifers; a study of the processes leading to recharge of the alluvial aquifer during major floods; modelling of salt accessions to the floodplain creeks (and hence the River Murray) and possible mitigation schemes using a density-dependent groundwater flow and transport model (SUTRA); the use of transpiration measurements (using the heat-pulse technique) and stable isotope techniques to study the water use of the predominant Eucalyptus communities of the floodplain; the measurement and prediction of rates of groundwater discharge in the floodplain and consequent rates of salt accumulation in floodplain soils; a preliminary study into the causes of dieback of Eucalyptus communities and possible ameliorative approaches.

T1 - The causes of decline in eucalypt communities and possible ameliorative approaches
AN - 15660100; 3942759
AB - A broad-scale survey of vegetation health, soil, and groundwater conditions was conducted to analyse the factors contributing to black box (Eucalyptus largiflorens) decline. On the basis of these data it was concluded that the decline in black box health at Chowilla is due to water stress, ultimately resulting from the regulation of the River Murray. A more detailed study quantified black box health and structure at seven sites on the floodplain, and provided an initial insight into the causes of the variation. The sites included a range of black box health states and landform types. A site supporting E. camaldulensis (river red gum), another common eucalypt on the floodplain, was included for comparison with the black box. On a point scale of 4 (dead) to 20 (healthy), black box health varied from 4 to 16. The healthier black box communities were classified as closed forests, with the less healthy being woodlands or, where trees were dead, grasslands. Relationships were found between health and environmental characteristics such as soil chloride concentration, soil osmotic and matric suction, groundwater salinity, and pre-dawn leaf water potential, suggesting that high soil salinities present on the floodplain are affecting tree health by increasing the soil water suction and causing water stress in the trees. The causes of variation in health may be more complex, however, as health and soil salinity were also related to site elevation, which determines the frequency of inundation by flood waters. The now lower incidence of flooding, combined with higher water tables, has resulted in the disturbance of the delicate salt balance which exists in floodplain soils. Less flooding has caused accumulation of salt in soil profile which results in water stress due to osmotic effects and lower water availability. Our results can be used to aid in the prediction of the likely impacts of proposed salinity mitigation schemes for Chowilla. We conclude that groundwater pumping may have positive effects on vegetation health by improving groundwater quality, but these may take several decades to occur.

T1 - Modelling salt accession within the Chowilla anabranch and possible mitigation schemes: A density-dependent model of groundwater flow and solute transport
AN - 15660074; 3942727
AB - The groundwater system in the Chowilla anabranch has been modelled in cross-section using the two-dimensional finite-element model SUTRA. This model was used to simulate density-dependent saline groundwater flow in a semi-confined aquifer and was employed to investigate the stream-aquifer interaction near the River Murray and Slaney and Punkah Creeks on the Chowilla floodplain before and after a major flood. Evapotranspiration and recharge during a flood have been incorporated into the numerical model. Simulation of a proposed salinity-mitigation scheme has been modelled in cross-section by incorporating various management options. Simulations show that Slaney Creek near the River Murray is relatively fresh, carrying substantially less salt than Punkah Creek, which lies in the middle of the floodplain. Time-dependent boundary conditions have been used to simulate rising and falling heads in the river and creeks during the flood. This has shown that salt load increases five-fold to Punkah Creek and three-fold to Slaney Creek immediately after a flood recedes. The peak salt load to the creeks occurs immediately after the flood recedes and subsequently declines over a 6-month period to the baseline salt load. The effect of pumping on the floodplain has also been simulated and, in the case of the proposed interception scheme, we predict a drawdown of 0.2 m at the outer edges of the floodplain to 1.5 m at well sites.

AB - The Chowilla floodplain, situated near the junction of the South Australian, Victorian and New South Wales borders, covers an area of about 200 km super(2) on the northern side of the River Murray. Most (74%) of the Chowilla floodplain lies in South Australia with the rest (26%) located in New South Wales. The floodplain is a complex system with many vegetation associations, soil types, and geomorphic features including wetlands of a variety of forms and origins. The Chowilla region is the last remaining region of natural riverine forest in the lower River Murray and has a high conservation value (O'Malley and Sheldon 1990; CWG 1992). It provides habitat for many species of birds, mammals, reptiles, and fish, and contains magnificent stands of river red gums. The anabranch region is a part of 'Riverland Wetlands' listed under the UNESCO Ramsar Convention (Section 14.5) as wetlands of international importance (NEC 1988) because of its unique bird life and Eucalyptus camaldulensis and E. largiflorens forests and woodlands. The Chowilla floodplain is also thought to be an important native fish breeding area and is a popular tourist region, with fishing and canoeing being prominent activities (NEC 1988).

T1 - Role of television in adolescent women's body dissatisfaction and drive for thinness
AN - 15659324; 3948466
AB - Many authors have implicated the media's promotion of an unrealistically thin ideal for women as a major causal factor in the current high levels of body dissatisfaction and increasing incidence of eating disorders. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between exposure to one medium, television, and body dissatisfaction and drive for thinness. Questionnaires were administered to 94 adolescent women who reported how much and what television they had watched in the previous week. Body dissatisfaction and drive for thinness were also assessed. Amount of television watched did not correlate with either body dissatisfaction or drive for thinness, but category of program did. Specifically, amount of time spent watching soaps, movies, and (negatively) sport predicted body dissatisfaction, and the watching of music videos predicted drive for thinness. The results are consistent with sociocultural explanations for body dissatisfaction and for the emergence of eating disorders in young women.

T1 - Changing epidemiology of cholera due to Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 Bengal in Dhaka, Bangladesh
AN - 15659028; 3948394
AB - At the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh (ICDDR, B) Dhaka we studied the trends in cholera for the period January 1992 to May 1995. Vibrio cholerae O139 Bengal emerged as a second aetiologic agent of cholera in Dhaka in January 1993. In 1993, the majority of cholera cases was due to V. cholerae O139, with V. cholerae O1 accounting for a small proportion of cases. During the latter part of the study period (Jan 1994-May 1995), V. cholerae O1 re-emerged as the predominant cholera strain. The predominant age group affected in endemic cholera due to V. cholerae O1 was children 2-9 years old, and the organism was isolated from more females than from males at all ages. In contrast, cholera due to V. cholerae O139 caused disease mostly in adults 15 years and older, which indicated that this organism was new in this population. As with V. cholerae O1, V. cholerae O139 was isolated from more females than males. The initial rapid emergence and predominance of V. cholerae O139 was considered possibly to herald the start of the eighth pandemic of cholera. However, just after a year, the prevalence of V. cholerae O139 decreased dramatically with V. cholerae O1 resuming the role of the dominant cholera strain. The factor(s) contributing to the dramatic decline in prevalence of V. cholerae O139 is not well understood.

T1 - Salinity-limited uptake of groundwater by plants: An analytical model
AN - 15658514; 3942758
AB - An analytical model, based on unsaturated-zone water and solute balances, was developed to describe the uptake of saline groundwater by plants in dry regions. It was assumed that: (i) initially, the profile was virtually dry and salt-free to some depth; (ii) both water and solutes move upwards from the water table by piston flow due only to plant water extraction; (iii) the uptake of water concentrates solutes in the soil solution until some threshold salinity is reached, above which plants can no longer extract water due to osmotic effects; (iv) uptake of the groundwater does not affect the water table level; and (v) uptake of groundwater is not limited by 'evaporative demand'. Model predictions were compared with measurements of groundwater uptake made over 15 months at five sites in Eucalyptus forest in a semi-arid area. Depth and salinity of groundwater and soil type varied greatly between sites. Predicted groundwater uptake rates were within similar to 0.1 mm/day of measured values. The agreement between model predictions and measurements implies that groundwater depth and salinity were the main controls on uptake of groundwater at these sites. The model shows that uptake of groundwater can result in salinisation of the soil profile, within 4-30 yr at the sites studied, unless salts are leached from the soil by rainfall or flood waters. However, a relatively small amount of annual leaching may be sufficient to allow groundwater uptake to continue. Thus groundwaters, even when saline, may be important sources of water to plants in arid and semi-arid areas.

T1 - Extraction of water from Eucalyptus trees for analysis of deuterium and oxygen-18: Laboratory and field techniques
AN - 15658470; 3942754
AB - This study investigated a methodology for sampling and extracting water from Eucalyptus spp. for analysis of stable isotopes of water. Firstly, water of known isotopic composition was extracted from stems of Eucalyptus seedlings by azeotropic distillation using three solvents (hexane, toluene and kerosene) in laboratory and glasshouse experiments. Kerosene and toluene, gave the most accurate extractions, with a small negative bias ( similar to -2ppt for delta super(2)H and similar to -0.4ppt for delta super(18)O) due to incomplete extraction. This bias was not evident in further experiments, using kerosene, where water was extracted from stems and roots that had been pre-treated in a manner that more closely reflected field conditions. Secondly, variation in delta super(2)H in trees was investigated in the field to determine an accurate and convenient place for sampling. There was no significant difference in delta super(2)H between water extracted from trunk sapwood and whole twigs, even twigs close to leaves, in samples taken from four Eucalyptus spp. at two field sites. The results mean that the most convenient part of the tree can be sampled. Also, there was little difference in delta super(2)H between sapwood and heartwood samples, although small increases ( similar to 2ppt) in delta super(2)H were observed in bark of trunks and twigs. Tree roots (15-25 mm diameter) had similar delta super(2)H values to the surrounding soil in many cases, especially surface (<0.2 m depth) roots, rather than having delta super(2)H values similar to twigs of the trees. These roots were absorbing water from surrounding soil, but not contributing significant quantities of water to the tree canopy. Thus the delta super(2)H of root water is not a good indicator of the isotopic composition of water in the upper parts of Eucalyptus trees.

T1 - Floodwater recharge processes
AN - 15658396; 3942728
AB - The results of a study into the interaction between floodwaters and an unconfined alluvial aquifer in the Chowilla anabranch system of the River Murray during a large flood are reported. Data on water table elevation, groundwater chemistry, and unsaturated zone salt storage were collected before, during, and after a flood in 1990 which inundated all but the very highest points of the floodplain. These data, combined with analytical modelling of the water table behaviour throughout the flood, lead us to conclude that diffuse vertical recharge of floodwater to the unsaturated zone is of little importance. As a consequence, only limited leaching of salt from this zone to the groundwater occurs. This appears to be due to a reduction in the infiltration capacity of the sodic clay surface soils of the floodplain which disperse and swell when wetted with the low-salinity floodwater. This suggests that the unsaturated zone is not the major source of salt which enters the River Murray following floods. However, from previous studies it is clear that the floodplain is an important source of saline groundwater which is added to the river following floods. An alternative hypothesis to explain the observed salt accessions is that areas of the floodplain where the Coonambidgal Clay is thin or absent are zones of localised recharge which cause displacement of in situ groundwater into the floodplain streams. This hypothesis should be tested in further work.

T1 - Combining measurements of transpiration and stable isotopes of water to determine groundwater discharge from forests
AN - 15657756; 3942755
AB - Discharge of saline groundwater from Eucalyptus forests on the Chowilla floodplain was directly determined by, firstly, measuring transpiration rates from the forests, then, secondly, partitioning the transpiration flux into groundwater discharge and soil water depletion. This partitioning was achieved by identifying the source of the transpired water with naturally occurring stable isotopes of water. Transpiration rates were low, being similar to 0.3 mm/day from three E. largiflorens sites and up to 2 mm/day from an E. camaldulensis site. There was no significant variation in transpiration across seasons, indicating that transpiration was limited by environmental factors other than evaporative demand. Despite its salinity (electrical conductivities of 11-33 dS/m), the groundwater was used by the forests at all sites and all times, comprising 100% of transpiration in more than half of the measurements, and 40-80% in the remainder. There was some consistency in water uptake patterns. E. camaldulensis tended to take up shallow soil water and groundwater simultaneously, as did trees at one of the E. largiflorens sites. At the driest sampling time, however, groundwater was the only source of water for trees at both these sites. Trees at the remaining two E. largiflorens sites generally relied solely on the groundwater. The tree-water source results indicate that groundwater discharge fluxes were between 40 and 100% of the transpiration fluxes at these sites. These groundwater discharge fluxes were small in terms of regional groundwater balances, but would be important in salinisation of soils. Additionally, uptake of water from the soil profile by the trees substantially increased groundwater discharge compared with discharge from soils bare of vegetation.

AB - The results of a study into the groundwater chemistry of the Chowilla region of the River Murray are reported in this chapter. Comparison of the chemistry of the unconfined alluvial aquifer with that of the regional unconfined Pliocene Sands and of the confined Murray Group limestone aquifers shows that the groundwater in the first aquifer is mostly derived from the second aquifer and that less than 10% is derived from upward leakage from the third group. This is consistent with earlier estimates based on hydrogeology and groundwater modelling. Within the alluvial sand aquifer, the groundwater is diluted by stream recharge, mainly caused by the River Murray being held high by Lock 6 and by flood recharge from creeks with good hydraulic connection. There is no evidence that the chemistry of the shallow alluvial aquifer is affected by groundwater discharge due to evapotranspiration.

T1 - Characterisation of carbon dioxide-inducible genes of the marine bacterium, Pseudomonas sp. S91
AN - 15650641; 3945805
AB - Characterisation of two genes in Pseudomonas sp. S91 that are responsive to carbon dioxide is reported. These were identified by random transposon mutagenesis leading to fusion of the Escherichia coli lacZ reporter gene to the genes of interest. Expression of the genes' promoters was quantified by measuring the reporter gene product, beta -galactosidase. beta -Galactosidase synthesis was induced when cells were exposed to 10% CO sub(2) on solid media or during growth in aqueous phase when the culture density was greater than 1 at 610 nm, in either rich or minimal media. Induction of beta -galactosidase synthesis was not due to: increased alkalinity, onset of stationary phase, build up of soluble metabolites in the culture supernatant, or cell density-dependent signalling. The CO sub(2)-inducible gene fusions were not induced by other environmental conditions that are known to stimulate global regulators of environmental gene expression. Benzoic acid (2 mM) induced beta -galactosidase synthesis in one of the mutants indicating the CO sub(2) response may involve the intracellular CO sub(2) partial pressure/bicarbonate ion concentration/pH equilibrium.

T1 - Preparation of mycobacterial DNA from blood culture fluids by simple alkali wash and heat lysis method for PCR detection
AN - 15645598; 3944038
AB - A sodium iodide-isopropanol (NI) method was compared with an alkali wash and heat lysis (AH) procedure for the preparation and extraction of DNA from BACTEC 13A blood culture fluid samples from AIDS patients for use in a PCR for the detection and identification of mycobacteria. The sensitivity and efficiency of the DNA extraction methods were assessed by a multiplex PCR which detected the members of the genus Mycobacterium and differentiated between M. intracellulare, M. tuberculosis, and M. avium isolates with a limit of detection of between 0.28 pg (67 cells) and 120 pg (28,571 cells) of standard mycobacterial DNA. The PCR amplified mycobacterial DNA prepared by the AH procedure from 40 acid-fast bacillus-positive blood cultures with growth index values of >20 U but not from 48 blood cultures with growth index values of <21 U. The AH method was about 10 times more sensitive than the NI method for extracting DNA from 13 acid-fast bacillus-positive BACTEC fluid samples for PCR analysis. The study shows that the AH procedure in combination with the multiplex PCR is a simple, specific, and sensitive method which can be used in the routine diagnostic laboratory to detect and identify different members of the genus Mycobacterium in blood culture fluid samples from AIDS patients.

T1 - Regional and individual differences in cutaneous sensitivity to chemical irritants: Capsaicin and menthol
AN - 15644562; 3943307
AB - Regional and individual differences in sensory irritation produced by capsaicin and l-menthol were assessed in two experiments. Thresholds for irritation were measured on the forearm and cheek using a psychophysical method that combines a bilateral, forced-choice detection task with an intensity scaling task. Experiment 1 showed that thresholds on the cheek were higher than on the forearm for both chemicals; on average, thresholds were much lower for capsaicin than for menthol; there were large individual differences in thresholds for both chemicals on both sites; and capsaicin and menthol produced different qualities of sensation. In contrast to earlier findings, capsaicin failed to produce itching on either site. Experiment 2 showed that itching could be evoked on the forearm, but not the face, when capsaicin was applied in a single dose rather than in an ascending concentrations series, as it had been in experiment 1. It was hypothesized that the absence of itching in experiment 1 was due to a more rapid desensitization for itching compared to burning and stinging, and that the lack of itching on the cheek may reflect different chemosensory innervation on facial and forearm skin. Overall, the results demonstrate that psychophysical measurements can provide information about regional and individual differences in the susceptibility to sensory irritation from contact with environmental chemicals.

T1 - Responses of tropical plants to nutrients and light on a landslide in Puerto Rico
AN - 15643903; 3939832
AB - To determine whether availability of mineral nutrients limited growth of pioneer and nonpioneer species differently, we transplanted Phytolacca rivinoides (an annual pioneer species), Cecropia schreberiana (a pioneer tree species), Palicourea riparia (a shrub of tree-fall gaps and understorey) and Manilkara bidentata (a nonpioneer canopy tree) into a landslide in Luquillo Experimental Forest, Puerto Rico. Plots were established in exposed parent material in the open zone and along the edge of a landslide. Within each plot, control and treatments of nitrogen, phosphorus, and N + P were randomly assigned to subplots. Addition of N produced increases in total soil N, ammonium, and nitrate in the open plots, but not in the edge plots. Addition of P produced increases in extractable P in both sets of plots. Biomass of the pioneer species responded significantly to both N and P. Biomass of the nonpioneer species responded only to added N. The effect of location (open vs. edge) on growth was variable. For the pioneer species, the concentration of foliar P was increased by P fertilization, but foliar N did not increase significantly in response to fertilization. For the non-pioneer species, both foliar N and P increased in response to fertilization by N and P, respectively. Light-saturated photosynthetic rate (A sub(max)) of C. schreberiana increased in response to N fertilization in the open plots. In contrast, photosynthesis of P. riparia and M. bidentata in the open plots was unaffected by fertilization. A sub(max) of P. rivinoides was also unaffected, but sample sizes were very small due to mortality from an outbreak of lepidopteran larvae. There was no effect of fertilization on photoinhibition as assayed by chlorophyll fluorescence. P. riparia may have experienced moderate photoinhibition in the open zone, as shown by reduced growth as well as reduced ratios of variable to maximum fluorescence. Availability of nitrogen appeared to limit growth of pioneer and nonpioneer species on the landslide. Availability of phosphorus appeared to limit growth of pioneer species, perhaps because they were nonmycorrhizal (P. rivinoides) or weakly facultatively mycorrhizal (C. schreberiana). Neither pioneer nor nonpioneer species appeared to be particularly well adapted to colonize exposed parent material, for growth was very slow in the absence of added nutrients.

T1 - Deposition of malathion and permethrin on sod grass after single, ultra-low volume applications in a suburban neighborhood in Michigan
AN - 15642505; 3934791
AB - Deposition of malathion and permethrin onto grass surfaces, after ultra-low volume (ULV) application, was studied in a suburban neighborhood in Saginaw County, Michigan. Commercial concentrates of malathion (Cythion ULV super(TM)) and permethrin (Biomist 4 + 12 super(TM)) were sprayed using a truck-mounted ULV aerosol generator. Sod-grass blocks (0.18 m super(2)) were placed in the frontyard and backyard of homes in the neighborhood at 4 distances to 91.4 m from the road where applications were made. Grass samples were taken from the sod blocks before application and at 15 min, 12 h, 24 h, and 36 h after application. Samples were extracted with solvent, and extractions were subjected to gas-liquid chromatography for detection of malathion and permethrin. Ranges of detection for malathion were 0.0-16.6 mg/0.18 m super(2) and for permethrin were 0.0-25.9 mg/0.18 m super(2). Most detections were from samples taken nearest the road at 15 min after application. Detections declined as a logarithmic function of time after application and as an exponential function of distance from the road.

T1 - The effect of heavy social drinking on recall and event-related potentials
AN - 15630372; 3936077
AB - Objective: It has been suggested that alcohol-related brain impairments progress on a continuum from subtle deficits in social drinkers through to end-state Korsakoff syndrome. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether heavy levels of social drinking have an adverse effect on sober cognitive functioning in young nonalcoholic adults. Method: Event-related potentials (ERPS) were recorded from heavy (>200 gm/week) and light (<20 gm/week) male social drinkers under the effects of a pharmacological challenge (lorazepam-ATIVAN) and a placebo. The heavy (n = 14) and light (n = 14) social drinkers completed a free-recall task with a rare word probability of .30. Results: Analysis of the P300 component of the ERP to recalled and not-recalled words found that P300 amplitude in heavy social drinkers (HSDs) was reduced following placebo compared to the light social drinkers (LSDs). Lorazepam produced a distinctive pattern of anterograde memory deficits in both groups and reduced P300 amplitude to rare words in the LSDs compared to both the placebo treatment and the HSDs. Conclusions: The differences in central nervous system functioning evident between HSDs and LSDs were reflected in ERP deviations in both the presence and absence of lorazepam. Even though no definite statements can be made because of the small sample size, the results appear to indicate that HSDs have an impairment in their information-processing ability in the absence of an acute inhibitory agent (e.g., alcohol or a benzodiazepine) as well as a differential response to the depressant effects of lorazepam.

T1 - Pollution taxes and pollution abatement in an oligopoly supergame
AN - 15625666; 3937023
AB - This paper investigates the effects of an emissions tax on the incentives for oligopolists to acquire alternative pollution abatement technologies. The analysis is conducted in terms of a repeated game and it is demonstrated that there are circumstances in which the firms may reject the option of acquiring the pollution abatement equipment, even when this lowers their production costs.

T1 - Hydrogeochemical evidence for surface water recharge to a shallow regional aquifer in northern Victoria, Australia
AN - 15625369; 3932815
AB - The Third, Middle and Reedy Lakes system in northern Victoria is a series of interconnected lakes in which groundwater discharge and recharge occur under seasonal climatic and artificial influences. At high lake levels there is a pronounced mounding effect which tends to cause localised perturbation of flow systems and recharge into the uppermost aquifer. Three hydrostratigraphic units (referred to as 'Lower', 'Middle' and 'Upper') are identified beneath the lakes. An upward hydraulic gradient exists in the region under the present hydrologic regime. Despite this, hydrochemical and isotopic evidence has demonstrated a fresh water lens beneath Reedy Lake in the Middle and Lower aquifers. These waters have similar characteristics to the present-day water table which is being recharged from the lakes, suggesting that the lens represents lake-water recharge under a prior hydrologic regime when regional water tables were lower. The recognition of this lens has important implications for future management strategies in that it may be possible to implement a more natural wetting-drying cycle without the intrusion of saline water into this ecologically sensitive area.

T1 - Wind profiler observations of vertical motion and precipitation microphysics of a tropical squall line
AN - 15624503; 3935430
AB - Data from a wind profiler located at Darwin, Australia, have been used to examine the vertical motions and precipitation microphysics in a well-developed squall line. Both a mature and developing convective cell are well sampled. The vertical motions within the mature cell are dominated by the effect of glaciation and a convective downdraft feeding a cold pool. The strong updrafts are accompanied by supercooled water as much as 2 km above the freezing level. The two cells are separated by a narrow region of deep descent. The developing cell has a low-level maximum in upward motion coinciding with high radar reflectivity below 3 km, suggesting warm rain processes. There is a large transition region with deep descent and a stratiform region with a classic up- and downdraft circulation. The precipitation characteristics show the aggregation of ice particles as they descend in the stratiform region. Over half of the rain is seen to evaporate between 4 and 2 km. The cooling implied by this and the heating by the growth of ice particulates above the melting level balance the mesoscale circulation in the stratiform region. The Q sub(1) heating profile is consistent with previous studies above 4 km but shows a net cooling below this. This may in part be due to the storm being sampled when the system was mature with extensive convective downdrafts.

T1 - Coastal erosion in the Gulf of Thailand
AN - 15620338; 3931584
AB - During the past two decades the coastal areas surrounding the Gulf of Thailand from the Malaysian east coast clockwise to the southeastern tip of Thailand coast have been progressively eroded. These coastal areas which used to be villages, resorts, salt terns, shrimp ponds, and mangroves, are now under the seawaters. At present the intensity and rate of coastal erosion are continuing without any sign of slowing down. This paper presents an overview of the coastal erosion problem in coastal area of the Gulf Thailand, their causes, and possible remedial measures.

T1 - Release of both native and non-native proteins from a cis-only GroEL ternary complex
AN - 15616971; 3932633
AB - Protein folding by the double-ring chaperonin GroEL is initiated in cis ternary complexes, in which polypeptide is sequestered in the central channel of a GroEL ring, capped by the co-chaperonin GroES. The cis ternary complex is dissociated (half-life of similar to 15 s) by trans-sided ATP hydrolysis, which triggers release of GroES. For the substrate protein rhodanese, only similar to 15% of cis-localized molecules attain their native form before hydrolysis. A major question concerning the GroEL mechanism is whether both native and non-native forms are released from the cis complex. Here we address this question using a "cis-only" mixed-ring GroEL complex that binds polypeptide and GroES on only one of its two rings. This complex mediates refolding of rhodanese but, as with wild-type GroEL, renaturation is quenched by addition of mutant GroEL "traps", which bind but do not release polypeptide substrate. This indicates that non-native forms are released from the cis complex. Quenching of refolding by traps was also observed under physiological conditions, both in undiluted Xenopus oocyte extract and in intact oocytes. We conclude that release of non-native forms from GroEL in vivo allows a kinetic partitioning among various chaperones and proteolytic components, which determines both the conformation and lifetime of a protein.

T1 - Genetic and seasonal variation in body colour of the Australian death adder, Acanthophis antarcticus (Squamata: Elapidae)
AN - 15615636; 3932083
AB - Two colour morphs, red and grey, are recognized in the death adder, Acanthophis antarcticus, an Australian elapid snake. The inheritance of these morphs appears to be controlled by two alleles at a single autosomal locus, with red dominant to grey. Both morphs show seasonal changes in dorsal reflectance. They show similar reflectance patterns in winter, whereas in summer red animals become less reflectant, grey animals become more reflectant. Populations in northern and eastern Australia contain predominantly red snakes, whereas southern populations consist of mostly grey snakes. Selection for crypsis through substrata colour matching may be important in maintaining the polymorphism.

T1 - Accumulation of a sulphur-rich seed albumin from sunflower in the leaves of transgenic subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.)
AN - 15610300; 3928601
AB - A gene encoding a sulphur-rich, sunflower seed albumin (23% cysteine plus methionine) was modified to contain the promoter for the 35S RNA of cauliflower mosaic virus, in order to obtain leaf expression in transgenic plants. In addition, a sequence encoding an endoplasmic reticulum-retention signal was added to the 3' end of the coding region so as to stabilize the protein by diverting it away from the vacuole. The modified gene was introduced into subterranean clover (T. subterraneum L.) and its expression was detected by northern and western blots and by immunogold localization. The albumin was accumulated in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum, and, among six independent, transformed lines, it accumulated in the leaves of T sub(0) transgenic plants at varying levels up to 0.3% of the total extractable protein. The level of accumulation of the sunflower albumin increased with increasing leaf age, and in the older leaves of the most highly expressing plants of the T sub(1) generation it reached 1.3% of total extractable protein. Expression of the SSA gene was stable in the first and second generation progeny. These results indicate that there is potential for significantly improving the nutritional value of subterranean clover for ruminant animals such as sheep by expressing genes that code for sulphur-rich, rumen-stable proteins in leaves.

T1 - A new hemoglobin gene from soybean: A role for hemoglobin in all plants
AN - 15607044; 3923588
AB - We have isolated a new hemoglobin gene from soybean. It is expressed in cotyledons, stem of seedlings, roots, young leaves, and in some cells in the nodules that are associated with the nitrogen-fixing Bradyrhizobium symbiont. This contrasts with the expression of the leghemoglobins, which are active only in the infected cells of the nodules. The deduced protein sequence of the new gene show only 58% similarity to one of the soybean leghemoglobins, but 85-87% similarity to hemoglobins from the nonlegumes Parasponia, Casuarina, and barley. The pattern of expression and the gene sequence indicate that this new gene in a nonsymbiotic legume hemoglobin. The finding of this gene in legumes and similar genes in other species strengthens our previous suggestion that genomes of all plants contain hemoglobin genes. The specialized leghemoglobin gene family may have arisen from a preexisting nonsymbiotic hemoglobin by gene duplication.

T1 - The organization of convection in the rainbands of tropical cyclone Laurence
AN - 15606128; 3925904
AB - A slow-moving weak tropical cyclone passed near Darwin, Australia, in December 1990. Rainbands were observed by a Doppler weather radar and a 50-MHz wind profiler for over 24 h. The principal bands were seen to be organized on two distinct scales. Bands of stratiform precipitation formed at a radius of about 100 km from the center of the storm and moved outward at about 6 m s super(-1). These decayed after they moved past Darwin over land. A distinct midlevel jet extended along the bands. Within the bands, convective lines formed at regular intervals, propagated against and outward with respect to the mean flow, and acted as a partial barrier to the radial inflow. Deep, active convection was confined to these lines. The vertical motion in the convection showed a distinct acceleration above the freezing level with measured updrafts of up to 10 m s super(-1). The convection elevated the tropopause height over the rainband. It is hypothesized that an inertia-gravity wave propagating from near the storm eye was responsible for triggering the convection within the lines. This hypothesis, although difficult to test, accounts for the propagation characteristics of the convective lines and offers an explanation of why similar features have not been seen in more intense storms.

T1 - Phosphorus fertilization strategy in fish ponds based on sediment phosphorus saturation level
AN - 15596817; 3915024
AB - Two experiments were conducted to determine effective P fertilization strategy in fish ponds in relation to sediment P saturation level. Experiment 1 was conducted in cement tanks with five levels of P saturation in the sediments (5, 24, 44, 60 and 79%) and with three P fertilization rates (0.2, 0.1 and 0.05 g m-3 day-1, N:P ratios of 2:1, 4:1 and 8:1, respectively). Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were cultured in the tanks for 57 days. Results showed that the mean concentration of soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) in the water column increased with increasing sediment P saturation and P fertilization rate. The maximum net fish yield (NFY), 4.2 plus or minus 0.3 g m-3 day-1, was obtained at an SRP concentration of 0.3 mg l-1; higher concentrations did not increase fish yield. These levels of SRP and NFY were attainable with P fertilization rates of 0.2 g m-3 day-1, 0.1 g m-3 day-1 and 0.05 g m-3 day-1 and N:P ratios of 2:1, 4:1 and 8:1 in ponds where the level of sediment P saturation was below 10%, above 45% and above 60%, respectively. Experiment 2 was conducted in earthen ponds to test and verify the P fertilization rate based on the cement tank results. Three new and three old ponds with 8 plus or minus 1.7% and 88 plus or minus 7.3% sediment P saturated in the top 5 cm of mud were fertilized at a rate of 0.2 g m-3 day-1 and 0.05 g m-3 day-1 and N:P ratio of 2:1 and 8:1, respectively. Nile tilapia were cultured at a density of two fish m-3 for 85 days. The mean NFY obtained in new and old ponds were 1.73 plus or minus 0.08 g m-3 day-1 and 2.24 plus or minus 0.32 g m-3 day-1, respectively, which were not significantly different (P>0.05). We conclude that P fertilization rate should be based on P saturation level in mud to overcome the problem of under or over supply of P in fish ponds.

T1 - Water use and growth of cotton in response to elevated CO sub(2) in wet and drying soil
AN - 15595287; 3916821
AB - Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum cv. Sicala 34) was grown at 352 ('low CO sub(2)') or 710 ('high CO sub(2)') mu L L super(-1) atmospheric CO sub(2) in continuously wet soil, or in drying soil, or in drying soil re-wetted after plant wilting. In wet soil, the approximately 15% reduction in transpiration per unit leaf area owing to high CO sub(2) was only half that for other species, whereas effects on growth and leaf area were relatively larger. Consequently, water use per plant was 45-50% higher for high CO sub(2) plants in contrast to other species for which the rate of water use is either the same or lower in high CO sub(2). Greater plant water use early in a drying cycle caused the soil to dry faster under high CO sub(2) than under low CO sub(2). The addition of the consequential greater water stress at high CO sub(2) in drying soil to the direct CO sub(2) effect on stomata caused the transpiration rate of high CO sub(2) plants to fall by up to 60% as the soil dried relative to plants drying at low CO sub(2). After re-wetting the dry soil, the reduction in transpiration rate at high CO sub(2) returned within hours to the value of 15% seen in wet soil. The results were inconsistent with the idea that water deficits increase the sensitivity of stomatal aperture to CO sub(2). Other consequences of drier soil under high CO sub(2) compared with low CO sub(2) were: (a) unlike in many other species, in cotton, the relative growth enhancement by high CO sub(2) is not higher under drying soil compared with wet soil owing to the opposite effect on soil water content; and (b) the increased water-use efficiency in drying soil relative to wet soil was greater in high CO sub(2) plants than in low CO sub(2). The confounding of indirect effects of soil water with the direct CO sub(2) effects may explain the wide variability of literature reports about CO sub(2) effects on stomatal conductance and water use.

T1 - Simultaneous estimation of microbial phospholipid fatty acids and diether lipids by capillary gas chromatography
AN - 15589915; 3915418
AB - The simultaneous measurement of specific phospholipid ester-linked fatty acids (PLFA) and diether lipids was achieved using high temperature capillary gas chromatography (GC). A GC method was developed and used to simultaneously determine diether lipid and PLFA content in the same GC run. The key features of the method were a slow (1 degree C/min) temperature ramp through the fatty acid region of the chromatogram followed by a high temperature ramp where the diether lipid eluted. Using this method on both pure bacterial cultures and aquatic sediments, resolution was achieved of the diether lipid and the PLFA, including novel C16 and C18 monounsaturated fatty acids derived from methanotrophs.

T1 - The water relations of the root-soil interface
AN - 15588075; 3917815
AB - The difference in hydrostatic pressure between the xylem of the leaf and the soil depends, for a given transpiration rate, on the series of hydraulic resistances encountered along this pathway. Many studies have shown that the sum of the resistances in the plant and the soil is too small to account for the fall in water pressure between the leaf xylem and the soil, especially when plants are growing in sandy soils, which are prone to dry rapidly. A resistance at the root-soil interface, caused possibly by poor contact between the roots and the soil, has been proposed to account for the discrepancy. We explored the resistance in the pathway from soil to leaf using a technique that allows precise and continuous non-destructive measurement of the hydrostatic pressure in the leaf xylem. When the soil was leached with water, the fall in leaf water status as the soil dried was reasonably well described by a simple physical model without the need to invoke an interfacial resistance. However, when the soil was flushed with a nutrient solution with an osmotic pressure of 70kPa, the hydrostatic pressure in the leaf xylem fell several times faster than that in the soil. We suggest that solutes accumulated either in the root or just outside it, creating large osmotic pressures, which gave the appearance of an interfacial resistance.

T1 - Elevated CO sub(2) effects on water use and growth of maize in wet and drying soil
AN - 15586066; 3916822
AB - It is unclear from the literature as to whether growth of C sub(4) species is responsive to elevated atmospheric CO sub(2) concentration. Reports vary between no response to strong response. To explore the origin of this discrepancy, spaced plants of maize (Zea mays) were grown at atmospheric CO sub(2) concentrations of 362 or 717 mu L L super(-1) under continuously wet or drying soil regimes. The aims were to evaluate the comparative growth promotion from elevated CO sub(2) in a C sub(4) plant under the two contrasting water regimes and the causes of any such promotion, and also how water-use efficiency (WUE) is influenced by high CO sub(2) under the two water regimes. In wet soil, transpiration rate was reduced on average by 29% at high CO sub(2) but neither total dry matter nor plant height was significantly affected by CO sub(2) level. Leaf area was not influenced significantly, so daily water use per plant was 25% lower and WUE was increased entirely due to reduced water use at high CO sub(2). In soil that was drying from field capacity, plants in high CO sub(2) used about 30% less water than those in ambient CO sub(2) while the soil was still wet. This resulted in higher soil water content at high CO sub(2). Plant growth showed a marked response, accumulating 35% more leaf area and 50% more dry matter. Young internodes elongated up to 170% more, giving taller plants. The growth enhancement was largely due to higher average net assimilation rate indicating that C sub(4) photosynthesis responded to elevated CO sub(2) during drought. In drying soil the increase in WUE was due to both increased dry matter and reduced water use, the contribution from each depending on the stage of soil drying. We hypothesise therefore that literature examples where maize growth responded to elevated CO sub(2) may have involved (possibly unrecognised) minor water deficits.

T1 - Monte Carlo modeling of time-dependent exposures using a microexposure event approach
AN - 15582623; 3910853
AB - Over the last 10 years, a number of researchers have used Monte Carlo analysis to investigate the variation in long-term average dose rates in exposed populations and the uncertainty in estimates of long-term average dose rates for specific individuals. In general, these researchers have modeled long-term exposures using simple dose rate equations which assume that individuals are exposed to a single environmental concentration at a constant rate over a specified exposure duration. This paper presents an alternative approach for modeling long-term average exposures called microexposure event modeling which addresses a number of shortcomings in traditional dose rate equations. The paper discusses the limitations of the traditional dose rate equation, presents a description of the methodology, and illustrates advantages of the approach with a case study.

AB - We have examined sectoral energy-use patterns and estimated the associated emission of key air pollutants in Kathmandu Valley for 1993, as well as the levels of pollutant emissions from fuel use in 2013 under a business-as-usual (BAU) scenario; total emissions of selected pollutants are estimated to be over 63,000 tons in 1993 and to increase five-fold by 2013. The transport sector contributes the largest share of pollutants, followed by the household and industrial sectors. Gasoline, fuelwood and coal were the dominant fuel contributors to total emissions and CO was the dominant pollutant.

T1 - Slumping of brine mounds: Bounds on behaviour
AN - 15573302; 3908008
AB - Two modifications of the approximate analysis of interface motion during two-fluid density-driven flows of De Josselin de Jong (1981) are applied to the slumping of finite two-dimensional and axisymmetric brine mounds. Both lead to simple similarity solutions. One modification gives upper bounds on the time-scales of the process and the other lower bounds. The bounds are close enough to allow estimation of true behaviour within order-of-magnitude accuracy. Application of the solutions to brine-fresh interactions is illustrated by a numerical example based on natural salinas. The analysis applies to any pollutant or pollution solution denser than the groundwater, and it carries over to the converse problem of the spreading over the groundwater of a lighter pollutant (such as petroleum).

T1 - Analysis of the Effects of Overexpression of Metallothionein-I in Transgenic Mice on the Reproductive Toxicology of Cadmium
AN - 14418224; 10520176
AB - The level of expression and tissue-specific distribution of metallothionein-I (MT-I) was examined in reproductive organs of male and female transgenic and control mice to assess the possible role of MT-I in protecting against cadmium-induced testicular damage and early pregnancy failure. The Cd doses ranged 7.545 mu mol/kg body weight. Results indicated that the transgenic mice exhibited dramatically increased steady-state levels of MT-I mRNA and MT in the testes and in the female reproductive tract during pregnancy. Exposure to 10 mu mol Cd/kg caused rapid changes in the histology of the testes and resulted in pronounced testicular necrosis in both groups. Injection of Cd after female transgenic and control mice were mated resulted in reduced pregnancy rate and no protection by overexpression of MT.

T1 - Ingestion, Inhalation, and Dermal Exposures to Chloroform and Trichloroethene from Tap Water
AN - 14417690; 10520174
AB - Exposure to chloroform and trichloroethene from ingestion, inhalation, and dermal contact with potable water was investigated. A total of 25 experiments were conducted using 11 subjects. Results indicated that only breath samples collected seconds to minutes after ingesting residential well water containing trichloroethene had elevated concentrations of the compound, while no breath samples had measurable levels of chloroform. However, the concentrations of both compounds were elevated for extended time periods in the exhaled breath of each subject after both inhalation and dermal exposures during showering. Breath concentrations were also elevated after dermal exposure via bathing. The calculated internal dose from inhalation exposure ranged 60250 and 3080 mu g for trichloroethene and chloroform, respectively.

T1 - Biological Monitoring of Workers Exposed to N-Nitrosodiethanolamine in the Metal Industry
AN - 14417260; 10520177
AB - Workers in the metal industry in Italy were studied in terms of some biomarkers of internal dose of N-nitrosodiethanolamine (NDELA) and early biological effects. The workers regularly used cutting oils that had been previously analyzed for nitrite and NDELA content and mutagenicity. Urine samples were collected and analyzed for mutagenicity and for concentrations of NDELA, thioethers, and D-glucaric acid, while blood was analyzed for sister chromatid exchanges in peripheral lymphocytes. Results indicated the presence of NDELA in the urine samples from workers exposed to cutting fluids with NDELA concentrations of at least 5 mg/l, showing that the contaminant was adsorbed by humans. The increase in thioethers, but not in D-glucaric acid, suggested that NDELA compounds were detoxified by reacting with endogenous glutathione more than through glucuronidation. Urinary mutagenicity assay and lymphocyte sister chromatid exchanges did not appear to be relevant for biomonitoring NDELA exposure.

T1 - Use of Endogenous, Stable Lead Isotopes to Determine Release of Lead from the Skeleton
AN - 14417144; 10520175
AB - Lead concentrations and stable Pb isotopic compositions were measured in blood and bone samples from patients undergoing total hip or knee-joint replacement to assess the skeleton as a source of Pb to the blood circulation in environmentally exposed subjects. Relatively large differences between the Pb isotopic compositions of the paired blood and bone samples were found for each subject, with bone exhibiting notably larger super(207)Pb/ super(206)Pb and super(208)Pb/ super(206)Pb ratios in all cases, which were attributed to differences in the Pb isotopic compositions of current versus past Pb exposures and to the long elimination half-life of Pb in the skeleton compared to Pb in the circulation. Blood Pb derived from the skeleton was calculated to range 4272%.

T1 - Landau-Kleffner Syndrome: Treatment with Subpial Intracortical Transection
AN - 85604367; 9604897
AB - Results of using a new surgical technique designed to eliminate the capacity of cortical tissue to generate seizures while preserving the normal cortical physiological function are reported. Children (N = 14) with aphasia, seizure, & a severely abnormal EEG were treated by multiple subpial transection of the epileptogenic cortex. Seven Ss have recovered age-appropriate speech, are in regular classes, & no longer require speech therapy. Four Ss have shown marked improvement, are speaking & understanding verbal instruction, but still receive speech therapy. Thus, 11 of 14 Ss (79%), none of whom had used language to communicate for at least 2 years, are now speaking. The success of the treatment depends on selection of patients with severe epileptogenic abnormality that can be demonstrated to be unilateral in origin despite a bilateral electrographic manifestation. 5 Tables, 15 Figures, 83 References.

T1 - Compilation of Agricultural Research, Education, and Extension Questions for Discussion. 104th Congress, 1st Session.
AN - 62674338; ED391447
AB - This volume compiles and reprints the responses of 37 organizations to a series of questions issued by the House Committee on Agriculture in anticipation of debates concerning the Research Title of the 1995 Farm Bill due for updating and revision. The questions address some of the following topics: the role of the federal government in agricultural research, coordination and relations with other federal agencies, the suitability of various regulations and procedures, setting research priorities, integrating federal-state-industry research pools, effectiveness of coordinating and advisory boards, efficiency and accountability in administration of these federal funds, partnerships with other types of organizations, guidelines for use of federal funds, land grant universities' roles, fund allocation formulas, and regional research and extension cooperation. The organizations that responded to these questions include the Department of Agriculture, the Coalition on Funding Agricultural Research Mission, professional societies such as the Phytopathological Society and the Entomological Society of America, individual higher education institutions like the Universities of Minnesota and Arkansas and Ohio State University, international organizations such as the World Bank and the International Food Policy Research Institute, and Associations such as the American Feed Industry Association and the Association of American Veterinary Medical Colleges.

T1 - Programs at Higher Education Institutions for Disadvantaged Precollege Students. Statistical Analysis Report. December 1995. Postsecondary Education Quick Information System (PEQUIS). Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62670068; ED391437
AB - This survey gathered information on programs at institutions of higher education that are designed to increase the access of educationally or economically disadvantaged elementary and secondary students to higher education. In addition the study aimed to compare Upward Bound, one prominent federally funded program, with others around the nation. Only the largest programs (based on funding) at each institution were included in the survey. Data were collected from two-year and four-year institutions in the fall of 1994. Of the 850 institutions surveyed, 813 responded. Highlights of the findings included: (1) 32 percent of all institutions offered at least one program for precollegiate students, and programs were especially common at large institutions and public institutions; (2) the largest programs served 317,400 students and involved 9,600 faculty and staff; (3) of the students in the largest programs, 68 percent were from low-income families, 59 percent were female, 39 percent were black, and 29 percent were Hispanic; (4) Upward Bound programs were more likely to have their students start in the freshman or sophomore years, were more intensive than other programs (with students spending a mean of 433 hours over the full year compared with 166 hours for other programs), and made greater use of reduced-price college courses. Appendixes contain tables of standard error and the survey questionnaire. (Author/JB)

T1 - Medical Expenditures for People with Disabilities in the United States, 1987. Disability Statistics Report 5.
AN - 62667650; ED394238
AB - This report presents detailed tables on the medical expenditures of people, from young children to older adults, who are limited in activity or who need assistance in activities of daily living. It uses data from the 1987 National Medical Expenditures Survey and compares these with 1993 estimates. Tables of results are presented on: (1) total and per capita medical expenditures by type of expenditure, activity limitation status, gender, age, sociodemographic characteristics, self-reported health status, and work disability status; and (2) sources of payment for medical expenditures by age group, activity limitation status, and sociodemographic characteristics. Highlights include: 17 percent of the non-institutionalized population are limited in activity and account for 47 percent of total medical care expenditures; 11 percent of these individuals have expenditures of $10,000 or greater; total per capita expenditures are over four times greater for people with activity limitations than for people with no limitations; people limited in activity represent 38 percent of hospitalized persons and 57 percent of expenditures for hospitalization; per capita medical expenditures for white children with activity limitation are nearly twice those for black children; and 4 percent of the non-institutionalized population requires assistance in activities of daily living. An appendix provides standard error data. (DB)

T1 - Cross-State Data Compendium for the NAEP 1994 Grade 4 Reading Assessment: Findings from the Trial State Assessment in Reading of the National Assessment of Educational Progress.
AN - 62654507; ED388963
AB - Intended as a companion document to the "NAEP 1994 Reading Report Card for the Nation and States" and the "NAEP 1994 Reading State Report," this compendium presents fourth-grade cross-state results of the National Assessment in Educational Process (NAEP) 1994 Trial State Assessment in reading--no interpretations of the data are made. Chapter 1 presents the results for the nation; results for each of the four regions; and each of the participating jurisdictions in the context of the overall average reading proficiency, reading proficiency by the two purposes of reading, and the NAEP reading achievement levels. Chapter 2 presents similar information for selected subpopulations: race/ethnicity, gender, type of location, parents' education level, Title 1 participation, and type of school. School and classroom characteristics and methods of reading instruction are examined in chapters 3 and 4. Chapter 5 contains teachers' reports on their professional development; chapter 6 deals with students' reports of their independent reading behaviors. Contains 65 tables of data. Appendixes provide a summary of participation rates, reporting subgroup(s) definitions, advice on drawing inferences from the results, and revisions to the 1992 and 1994 findings. (RS)

T1 - Culture in Treatment, Culture as Treatment. A Critical Appraisal of Developments in Addictions Programs for Indigenous North Americans and Australians
AN - 61503908; 9607304
AB - The value of culture in the treatment of addictions among indigenous peoples, particularly Native Americans & Canadians & the Australian Aborigines, is examined. The use of culture in treatment for addiction has emerged from indigenous understandings of the etiology of drug & alcohol abuse, which emphasize the impact of the disruption of cultural practices & dispossession resulting from colonialization. A return to cultural wholeness can serve as a preventive, or even curing, agent for addictive behavior. Culture as treatment carries the danger that certain aspects of culture -- eg, the drunken Indian -- will serve to foster abuse rather than prevent it. Culture as treatment will be most effective when it facilitates formation of peer groups that disvalue drug & alcohol use. 78 References. Adapted from the source document.

T1 - Counterproductive Regulation
AN - 61429606; 9607562
AB - Addresses the problems consistent with regulation that result in the unintended consequences causing significant harm that offset the original aims of the programs. This counterproductive regulation is explained by the combined forces of bad science (which has a tendency to overgeneralize & intervene at inappropriate times), poor planning & politics, & failures in the implementation of regulatory programs. Examples of regulations gone awry include automobile emission standards that may encourage people to retain their older, less environmental cars & the potential for a stigmatizing backlash against affirmative action programs. To reduce the risk of counterproductive regulation, it is argued that skepticism should be norm, negative by-products of regulation must be recognized, & quick fixes must be avoided. 70 References.

T1 - Radionuclides in the Great Lakes basin.
AN - 21260888; 11701729
AB - The Great Lakes basin is of radiologic interest due to the large population within its boundaries that may be exposed to various sources of ionizing radiation. Specific radionuclides of interest in the basin arising from natural and artificial sources include 3H, 14C, 90Sr, 129I, 131I, 137Cs, 222Rn, 226Ra, 235U, 238U, 239Pu, and 241Am. The greatest contribution to total radiation exposure is the natural background radiation that provides an average dose of about 2.6 mSv/year to all basin residents. Global fallout from atmospheric nuclear weapons tests conducted before 1963 has resulted in the largest input of anthropogenic radioactivity into the lakes. Of increasing importance is the radionuclide input from the various components of the nuclear fuel cycle. Although the dose from these activities is currently very low, it is expected to increase if there is continued growth of the nuclear industry. In spite of strict regulations on design and operation of nuclear power facilities, the potential exists for a serious accident as a result of the large inventories of radionuclides contained in the reactor cores; however, these risks are several orders of magnitude less than the risks from other natural and man-made hazards. An area of major priority over the next few decades will be the management of the substantial amounts of radioactive waste generated by nuclear fuel cycle activities. Based on derived risk coefficients, the theoretical incidence of fatal and weighted nonfatal cancers and hereditary defects in the basin's population, attributable to 50 years of exposure to natural background radiation, is conservatively estimated to be of the order of 3.4 x 10(5) cases. The total number of attributable health effects to the year 2050 from fallout radionuclides in the Great Lakes basin is of the order of 5.0 x 10(3). In contrast, estimates of attributable health effects from 50 years of exposure to current nuclear fuel cycle effluent in the basin are of the order of 2 x 10(2). Although these are hypothetical risks, they show that the radiologic impact of man-made sources is very small compared to the effects of normal background radiation.

T1 - Immunological effects of chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins.
AN - 21260235; 11703627
AB - 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and structurally similar halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons cause a broad range of immunologic effects in experimental animals including decreased host resistance to infectious disease and suppressed humoral and cell-mediated immune responses. In the mouse, TCDD immunotoxicity has been shown to be an aryl hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor-dependent process. However, despite considerable research, the biochemical and molecular alterations that occur subsequent to Ah receptor activation that lead to altered immune reactivity remain to be elucidated. In addition to immune suppression, TCDD promotes inflammatory responses. This effect may result from an upregulation of the production of inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor. Nonhuman primates exposed to TCDD show suppressed antibody responses and changes in lymphocyte subsets in the peripheral blood. The immunotoxic effects of TCDD in humans are poorly characterized, and few studies have examined the immune status of individuals with known, documented exposure to TCDD. It is important for laboratory research to focus on defining TCDD-sensitive immunologic biomarkers in animal models that can also be used in human subjects. Understanding the mechanisms that underlie species differences in TCDD immunotoxicity is also of critical importance for extrapolation of effects seen in laboratory animals to man.

T1 - Neurotoxicity of lead, methylmercury, and PCBs in relation to the Great Lakes.
AN - 21257801; 11704927
AB - There is ample evidence identifying lead, methylmercury, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) as neurotoxic agents. A large body of data on the neurotoxicity of lead, based on both epidemiologic studies in children and animal models of developmental exposure, reveals that body burdens of lead typical of people in industrialized environments produce behavioral impairment. Methylmercury was identified as a neurotoxicant in both adults and the developing organism based on episodes of human poisoning: these effects have been replicated and extended in animals. High-dose PCB exposure was recognized as a developmental toxicant as a result of several episodes of contamination of cooking oil. The threshold for PCB neurotoxicity in humans is less clear, although research in animals suggests that relatively low-level exposure produces behavioral impairment and other toxic effects. Tissue levels in fish below which human health would not be adversely affected were estimated for methylmercury and PCBs based on calculated reference doses (RfDs) and estimated fish intake. Present levels in fish tissue in the Great Lakes exceed these levels for both neurotoxicants. Great Lakes fish and water do not pose a particular hazard for increased lead intake. However, the fact that the present human body burden is in a range at which functional deficits are probable suggests that efforts should be made to eliminate point sources of lead contamination in the Great Lakes basin.

T1 - The reproductive toxicology of Great Lakes contaminants.
AN - 21251463; 11703630
AB - The Great Lakes basin is characterized as a heavily populated and industrialized region in which a large number of environmental contaminants have been identified. Both the scientific community and the public have voiced concern that contaminants present in the Great Lakes may pose undue risk to human reproduction. Evidence from animal experiments, wildlife studies, and reports of occupational and accidental human exposures indicate that chemical contaminants can adversely affect reproduction. The purpose of this paper is to review the reproductive toxicity of some of the many contaminants known to be present in the Great Lakes. Since the number of chemicals present in the Great Lakes is far too great for each to be adequately reviewed here, discussion will be limited to those contaminants that have been identified in human serum, ovarian follicular fluid, and semen obtained from people residing in the Great Lakes region. It is concluded that a) the data at present is too limited to support the notion that reproduction, in the general population, has been impaired by exposure to chemicals present in the Great Lakes; b) the lack of data in some cases such as for hexachloroethane and 1,2,4-trichlobenzene does provide reason for concern and underscores the need for further research in this area; and c) the potential for a number of the compounds, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl) ethane (DDT), to disrupt endocrine functions suggests that additive or synergistic effects of these compounds may already be causing adverse effects on reproduction in sensitive individuals, which needs to be explored.

T1 - Microbiological quality of aquaculture products with special reference to Listeria monocytogenes in Atlantic salmon
AN - 15855081; 4014986
AB - Listeriosis is caused by the gram positive, aerobic, non-sporeforming bacterium Listeria monocytogenes. Because of its diverse physiological capacities, the organism readily adapts to different environments. For example, the organism can grow over wide ranges of temperature (from refrigeration temperatures, typically 1 - 5 degree C, to 47 degree C or higher), salt concentration (0 to 10% NaCl), pH (5.2 to 9.6) and water activity (down to 0.92). One major habitat appears to be the gastrointestinal tract of warm blooded animals including domestic animals, birds and humans. The asymptomatic carrier rate in humans has been reported as 11.9% and 13.3% by Kampelmacher & van Noorle Jansen (1969). Human listeriosis is a rare disease and information on the etiology has emerged slowly. Not surprisingly, L. monocytogenes is found quite commonly in soil and fresh water habitats receiving runoff from land.

T1 - Effect of algal food concentration on toxicity of two agricultural pesticides to Daphnia carinata
AN - 15829137; 4006312
AB - The effects of algal concentration (Selanastrum capricornutum) on the toxicity of the organochlorine pesticide endosulfan and the synthetic pyrethroid esfenvalerate to Daphnia carinata was investigated. The study progressed through four stages: (1) A dose-response experiment on the effects of endosulfan and esfenvalerate on the survival, growth, and reproduction of D. carinata at a single nonlimiting food level. (2) An experiment to investigate the effects of five different food concentrations on survival, growth, and reproduction of D. carinata at sublethal concentrations of endosulfan and esfenvalerate compared with nonexposed controls. (3) An experiment to investigate the effects of route of exposure (water, food-borne, or water + food-borne exposure) on the toxicity of endosulfan to D. carinata. (4) An experiment to investigate the effects of algal concentration on persistence of endosulfan in the water column and on the relative toxicity of the alpha and beta isomers and of endosulfan sulfate to D. carinata. In the first experiment all daphnids exposed to 500 ng/liter esfenvalerate died within 3 days. There was a significant effect of esfenvalerate on reproduction at 50 ng/liter by the second brood. Endosulfan did not cause significant mortality to daphnids but brood size was reduced at 320 mu g/liter. In the second experiment the toxicity of esfenvalerate increased significantly with decreasing food concentration. In contrast, the toxicity of endosulfan to D. carinata was greatest at the higher food concentrations. Direct water-borne exposure to endosulfan was the most toxic route of exposure and the presence of algae decreased toxicity of this pesticide. The total amount of endosulfan ( alpha + beta + endosulfan sulfate) persisting in the water column after 24 hr was greater at high food levels, suggesting that this may be one mechanism for increased toxicity at high food concentrations. The 48-hr LC sub(50)s of technical endosulfan, endosulfan sulfate, alpha -endosulfan, beta -endosulfan, and a 50:50 mixture of alpha , and beta endosulfan were 478, 756, 249, 205, and 234 mu g/liter, respectively.

T1 - Use of Outpatient Clinics as a Health Indicator for Communities Around a Coal-Fired Power Plant
AN - 14412482; 10512050
AB - Outpatient medical clinics located around a coal-fired power plant in Israel were monitored as indicators of possible adverse human health effects from the power plant. Eight clinics located near air pollution monitoring stations were screened for total visits and visits due to respiratory tract complaints. Multivariate stepwise regressions using sulfur dioxide, meteorological parameters, and flu epidemics as independent variables showed that respiratory complaints were almost always correlated with temperature, but less so with total visits. Most meteorological parameters, sulfur dioxide, and flu epidemics did not adequately explain the regressions. Ambient air pollution levels were within Israeli standards.

T1 - The Livestock Legacy
AN - 14412163; 10512047
AB - The waste generated by hog farms and other livestock operations is causing serious problems, particularly in North Carolina and Iowa, where most hog operations are concentrated. Recent spills of lagooned hog waste that caused severe contamination of rivers put the problem in the limelight. But chronic seepage from lagoons and runoff from fields where the lagoon liquids are sprayed, as well as odor problems from drifting spray, also are major problems. EPA has the authority to regulate livestock waste under the Clean Water Act, but generally leaves this to states. The response at the state level varies, from strong in Texas to weak standards and enforcement in North Carolina. The latter state has begun to pay more attention to the problem recently, and may develop new, more stringent regulations and zoning laws.

T1 - What More of Us Means
AN - 14412131; 10512046
AB - World population has quadrupled since the mid-1800s, and one billion people are added every 11 years. The impacts of this growing population on Earth's environment are debated. Pessimists say these numbers will trigger mass environmental destruction. Optimists believe that advances in technology and resource management will enable high populations to thrive. The issue has become increasingly subtle, as population and environment interactions become better understood. Examples of ecosystem losses, population growth outstripping natural water and forest regeneration rates, links between atmospheric pollutants and population sizes, and other population-related environmental problems are reviewed. The contributions of industrialization also are noted. In recent years, some outbreaks of war have been blamed on high population densities and limited natural resources. Some countries have instituted family planning or coerced family size controls to reduce their national fertility rates. Infringement of human rights by some forced policies has prompted more consideration of voluntary methods. Greater awareness of the links between population and environment would enhance acceptance of population controls.

T1 - Pesticides in Household Dust and Soil: Exposure Pathways for Children of Agricultural Families
AN - 14412002; 10512052
AB - Potential associations between children of agricultural families and exposure to pesticides are explored. Household dust and soil samples were collected in children's play areas from farm and nonfarm residences in eastern Washington State. Most farm residences were near apple orchards, where four organophosphorus (OP) pesticides were commonly used. Pesticide concentrations in household dust were significantly higher than in soil for all groups. OP levels for farm residences ranged from nondetectable to 930 ng/g in soil and from nondetectable to 17,000 ng/g in dust. Residues were found less frequently in nonfarm homes, and all levels in those homes were below 1000 ng/g. Children of agricultural families have a higher potential for exposure to OP pesticides than do children of nonfarm families in this area.

T1 - Contraband in the Stratosphere
AN - 14411903; 10512048
AB - The phaseout of CFCs, culminating in the January 1996 deadline for ceasing production in industrialized nations, has set the stage for an illegal market in CFCs. The US excise tax levied to accelerate the switch to new equipment that can use alternative refrigerants has created a large profit margin for those selling contraband CFCs. The Customs Service, the EPA, and the Internal Revenue Service have authority over CFC distribution, and each has introduced measure to counter the black market. Cases prosecuted thus far suggest the contraband CFCs originate in England, India, Russia, and China. A joint industry-government estimate placed the volume of contraband CFCs at about 40 million lb/yr, a significant amount of which is contaminated. CFC replacements developed so far have their own environmental problems. Alternative refrigeration technologies are being developed as well, such as Stirling cycle units and thermoacoustic refrigeration, but these will not be available soon. In the meantime, the war against CFC smuggling continues.

T1 - Absorbing Possibilities: Phytoremediation
AN - 14411501; 10512049
AB - Phytoremediation is a growing area of research on the use of plants to clean up soil and water contaminated by heavy metals, organic compounds, explosives, and radioactive materials. These studies are spurred by the difficult task of decontaminating hazardous waste sites. Phytoremediation is potentially cheaper than conventional treatment, and could speed up waste cleanup programs. This technology may leave the topsoil in usable condition, reducing the amount of material to be landfilled or incinerated. Direct human health benefits are another potential advantage. Drawbacks include risks to wildlife that may eat the plants, engineering of cleanup areas to prevent flooding or erosion, and the lengthy time required for cleanup. Phytoremediation studies are focusing on finding the best plants and genetically engineering plants to improve their ability to take up contaminants. Research shows that some plants may be able to break down contaminants to less harmful products. Examples of phytoremediation research are given.

T1 - Gestational and Lactational Exposure of Rats to Xenoestrogens Results in Reduced Testicular Size and Sperm Production
AN - 14410786; 10512053
AB - The effects on testicular size and spermatogenesis in adult life from exposure of the male rat fetus/neonate to either of two environmental estrogenic chemicals were studied. Female rats were exposed to low doses of octylphenol or butyl benzyl during gestation, and male offspring were exposed during the first 21 days of postnatal life. These estrogens caused reduced testicular size and reduced daily sperm production in rats at adulthood, 70 days later. These responses may be due to a reduction in Sertoli cell numbers. Possible implications of these findings for explaining falling sperm counts in men exposed to environmental estrogens are discussed.

T1 - National Postsecondary Student Aid Study: 1992-93. Public Use Data File [CD ROM.]
AN - 62677219; ED391456
AB - This CD-ROM presents data from the National Postsecondary Student Aid Studies (NPSAS) conducted in 1992-93, 1989-90, and 1986-87. Students who began their postsecondary education in 1989-90 were also surveyed in 1992 as part of the Beginning Postsecondary Students Longitudinal Study First Followup. The NPSAS is a comprehensive study that is examining how students and their families pay for postsecondary education. It includes nationally representative samples of undergraduates, graduates, and first-professional students, students attending less-than-two-year, two-year, four-year, and doctoral granting institutions. As a part of the 1993 NPSAS, information on more than 78,000 undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at any time during the 1992-93 school year was collected at about 1,100 postsecondary institutions. The sample represents students enrolled at any time between July 1, 1992--June 30, 1993. Major educational policy issues to be addressed by information collected during the study include: (1) how and why students continue their enrollment in postsecondary education; (2) how postsecondary education is financed; (3) what courses are taken and what grades and credits are earned; (4) fields of study pursued; (5) patterns of student transfers between colleges; (6) extent and timing of program completion; (7) attainment of degrees, licenses, or certificates; and (8) impact of postsecondary education on subsequent life experiences. An introductory file explains how to install the CD-ROM, limitations of the study, cautions about comparing data from the different years of the study, and additional information and restrictions on using and analyzing the data. A sampling of the variables included are: parents' contribution; parents' assets; parents' income; student's income; student's assets student's marital status; place of residence; grade point average; Social Security Benefits; medical and dental expenses; existing student loans; room and board; transportation; citizenship; degree expectations; expected date of degree; student attitude toward institution; student employment plans. FREQUENCY: Biennial. TYPE OF SURVEY: Longitudinal. POPULATION: College Students. SAMPLE: 70,000 students from 1100 postsecondary institutions. YEAR OF LATEST DATA: 1993. YEAR OF EARLIEST DATA: 1986.

T1 - Federal Support for Education. Fiscal Years 1980 to 1995.
AN - 62665229; ED392853
AB - This report attempts to provide a comprehensive picture of total federal financial support for education since fiscal year 1980. To the extent possible, outlays, or actual dollars spent, were used rather than obligations (spending commitments), with the exception of funds for academic research at institutions of higher education. Federal education funding is grouped into three categories: (1) on-budget support; (2) off-budget support; and (3) nonfederal funds generated by federal programs. Federal support for education, excluding estimated federal tax expenditures, was an estimated $100.1 billion in fiscal year (FY) 1995, an increase of $37.3 billion (in current dollars), or 59%, since FY 90. After adjustment for inflation, federal support for education increased 36.5% between FY 90 and FY 95. On-budget funds for 1995 were estimated to be $73.8 billion (in constant dollars). Off-budget funds and nonfederal funds generated by federal legislation were estimated at $26.2 billion, a rise of 135% in current dollars between FY 90 and FY 95. Between FY 80 and FY 95 federal on-budget funds for elementary and secondary education increased 18%, and postsecondary funds declined 14%. Other education funds increased 75%, and funds for research at institutions of higher education increased 48%. Six appendixes present detailed tables. (Contains 3 figures, 18 text tables, and 6 appendix tables.) (SLD)

T1 - Student Financing of Graduate and First-Professional Education, 1992-93 with an Essay on Student Borrowing. National Postsecondary Student Aid Study: 1992-93. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62660157; ED389241
AB - This study uses data from the 1992-93 National Postsecondary Student Aid Study to describe the financing of graduate and first-professional education. It begins with an essay on student borrowing that briefly profiles graduate and first-professional students and then examines the role of borrowing in financing graduate and first-professional education. The essay concludes that there are notable differences among degree programs and attendance patterns in the proportion of students who borrow and in the average amounts borrowed which reflect the length of programs, tuition and fees, and the varying amounts of grants and other aid received. Master's degree students were the least dependent on loans: about 10 percent of these borrowed in 1992-93. Forty percent of doctoral students had borrowed for an average cumulative debt of $19,300. First professional students, who pay the highest tuition, on average, and who are primarily full time, full year (77 percent), were the most dependent on loans. Of these 65 percent had borrowed an average of $38,900 by the time they graduated. The compendium of tables that follows the essay provides detailed data on student characteristics, types of financial aid awarded, sources of aid, and financing through family support and work. Each section of the compendium is prefaced by highlights summarizing the major findings related to the section's topic. Appendixes contain a glossary and technical notes and methodology information.

AN - 62655986; ED389239
AB - This document lists the typical tuition and required fees and room and board charges assessed to college students in 1994-95 based on a national "Institutional Characteristics" survey which is part of the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System. The data were collected from over 5,000 of the 5,775 4-year, 2-year, and public less-then-2-year postsecondary institutions in the United States and its outlying areas. Included are tuition and fee charges to in-state and out-of-state students at the undergraduate and graduate levels, along with the costs for room and board, and the number of meals per week covered by the board charge. These charges are not weighted by enrollment. Included are several tables with national statistics on tuition and required fees at postsecondary institutions for academic year 1994-95 followed by tables showing charges at individual institutions and tuition and required fees for first-professional programs. A summary of the publication's statistics notes that the median charge at public 4-year institutions for tuition and fees was $2,445 for undergraduate, in-state students; that at public 2-year institutions tuition and required fees averaged $1,461 for in-state students; and that undergraduate tuition and fees at private, non-profit 4-year institutions averaged $8,967 for in-state undergraduate students.

AB - This publication provides educators, policymakers, and researchers with vocational education data through 1992. It begins with text and figures covering these key questions: what is vocational education? how widespread is vocational education participation? what types of vocational education do students take? to what extent do students with different demographic characteristics and disadvantaged or disabled students participate? how much academic preparation do vocational coursetakers receive? what outcomes are associated with participation? and what are other school-to-work programs schools and institutions offer? Appendix A presents extensive tables supporting the findings. The tables provide trend information on the decade spanning 1982-92 and information on public high school graduates and teachers and on nonbaccalaureate students in a variety of postsecondary institutions. The report also covers a number of key issues emphasized in the 1990 Perkins Act and echoed in the School-to-Work Opportunities Act: integration of academic and vocational education, access of special populations to high quality programs, and access of individuals to programs nontraditional for their sex. Information is also provided on most of the targeted populations identified in section 421 of the 1990 Perkins Act. Other appendixes contain a description of how variables were constructed to provide information on targeted populations, glossary, and 30-item bibliography. (YLB)

T1 - Targeting Hispanic populations: future research and prevention strategies.
AN - 21275693; 11701716
AB - Minority populations face a wide variety of economic, institutional, and cultural barriers to health care. These barriers and low levels of education and income pose significant challenges for health professionals in developing cancer research and prevention-control strategies. It is suggested that specific segments of Hispanic populations fit the model of an underdeveloped country in the intermediate stage of epidemiological transition. Since noncommunicable diseases have not yet fully emerged in some of these Hispanic population segments, the opportunity exists to apply primordial prevention strategies. Such campaigns would focus on dissuading members of these populations from adopting negative health behaviors while promoting positive lifestyle choices. Optimal programs would increase cancer screening participation and discourage risk behaviors through community-oriented, population-based interventions. Future directions in prevention and control efforts for minority populations should include expanded health insurance coverage, improved access to health care, greater emphasis on minority recruitment in health care fields, focused epidemiologic and clinical research, and identification and replication of effective components within existing prevention-control programs.

T1 - Ionizing radiation and cancer prevention.
AN - 21263135; 11701722
AB - Ionizing radiation long has been recognized as a cause of cancer. Among environmental cancer risks, radiation is unique in the variety of organs and tissues that it can affect. Numerous epidemiological studies with good dosimetry provide the basis for cancer risk estimation, including quantitative information derived from observed dose-response relationships. The amount of cancer attributable to ionizing radiation is difficult to estimate, but numbers such as 1 to 3% have been suggested. Some radiation-induced cancers attributable to naturally occurring exposures, such as cosmic and terrestrial radiation, are not preventable. The major natural radiation exposure, radon, can often be reduced, especially in the home, but not entirely eliminated. Medical use of radiation constitutes the other main category of exposure; because of the importance of its benefits to one's health, the appropriate prevention strategy is to simply work to minimize exposures.

T1 - Using biomarkers of genetic susceptibility to enhance the study of cancer etiology.
AN - 21260003; 11701718
AB - There has been increasing interest in the interaction of genetic susceptibility and xenobiotic exposures in cancer etiology. Study of gene-environment interactions may increase our ability to characterize relatively low population risks if a substantial proportion of the population cancer burden is attributed to high risk among a smaller group of genetically susceptible members. Further, these studies may provide insight into the mechanism of carcinogenesis, which can help establish the biologic plausibility of an exposure-cancer relationship. Biologic processes important in tumorigenesis that exhibit substantial interindividual differences may function as susceptibility factors. Potential examples include polymorphic enzymes, which activate and detoxify procarcinogens and carcinogens (e.g., certain P450 enzymes, N-acetyltransferase [NAT2], glutathione S-transferase M1), and variation in the capacity to repair DNA. Biologic assays are now available to evaluate many of these functions at the DNA and phenotype level and can be readily incorporated into studies of cancer etiology.

T1 - Cancer among special populations: women, ethnic minorities, and the poor.
AN - 21259015; 11703622
AB - The study of cancer among women, ethnic minorities, and the poor can yield useful information about etiology and lead to effective recommendations for prevention. Opportunities exist for affecting cancer rates among women by studying and altering hormonal exposures and, possibly, alcohol consumption. The study of diet among ethnic groups may be more informative than among populations with homogeneous diets. The gender and racial differences among lung cancer patients related to tobacco need further research. Innovative multidisciplinary research is needed to reduce the ethnic, gender, and institutional barriers to ensure success in the fight against cancer.

T1 - The importance of information dissemination in the prevention of occupational cancer.
AN - 21257405; 11703621
AB - It is assumed that prevention of occupational cancer depends upon dissemination of research findings, resulting in changes in work processes and reduction of occupational exposures to carcinogens. Examples of successes and failures of information dissemination are found in the results of research on silicosis. Better assessment of the effectiveness of information dissemination is needed, along with greater understanding of the barriers to implementation of the information by workers and management and improved hazard surveillance.

T1 - Molecular epidemiology and prevention of cancer.
AN - 21257395; 11703620
AB - Preventable environmental causes of cancer, including tobacco smoke and other carcinogens in the diet, workplace, and ambient environment are responsible for the vast majority of human cancers. This paper reviews recent molecular epidemiologic studies that have focused on environmental carcinogenesis and environment-host interactions. Biomarkers such as carcinogen-DNA and carcinogen-protein adducts, mutations in reporter or target genes (e.g., HPRT, GPA, ras, p53), or genetic or acquired susceptibility factors (e.g., polymorphisms in the P450 or glutathione-S-transferase genes and serum levels of antioxidants) have shown significant potential in prevention. They should be useful in early identification of at risk individuals and in designing and monitoring interventions (smoking cessation, exposure reduction, and chemoprevention).

T1 - Bacterial infection as a cause of cancer.
AN - 21252445; 11701723
AB - Bacterial infections traditionally have not been considered major causes of cancer. Recently, however, bacteria have been linked to cancer by two mechanisms: induction of chronic inflammation and production of carcinogenic bacterial metabolites. The most specific example of the inflammatory mechanism of carcinogenesis is Helicobacter pylori infection. H. pylori has been epidemiologically linked to adenocarcinoma of the distal stomach by its propensity to cause lifelong inflammation. This inflammation is in turn thought to cause cancer by inducing cell proliferation and production of mutagenic free radicals and N-nitroso compounds. H. pylori is the first bacterium to be termed a definite cause of cancer in humans by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Mutagenic bacterial metabolites are also suspected to increase risk for cancer. This model is best exemplified in colon cancer. Bile salt metabolites increase colonic cell proliferation. Exogenous compounds such as rutin may be metabolized into mutagens by resident colonic flora. Moreover, Bacteroides species can produce fecapentaenes, potent in vitro mutagens, in relatively high concentrations. In vivo data on human carcinogenesis by bacterial metabolites, however, are inconsistent. Local bacterial infections may also predispose to nonnodal lymphomas, although the mechanisms for this are unknown. Gastric lymphomas and immunoproliferative small intestinal disease have been most strongly linked to underlying bacterial infection. Because bacterial infections can be cured with antibiotics, identification of bacterial causes of malignancy could have important implications for cancer prevention.

T1 - Viruses and human cancers: challenges for preventive strategies.
AN - 21251459; 11701724
AB - Virus-associated human cancers provide unique opportunities for preventive strategies. The role of human papilloma viruses (HPV 16 and 18), hepatitis B virus (HBV), Epstein-Barr herpes virus (EBV), and retroviruses (human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] and human T-cell leukemia/lymphoma virus [HTLV]) in the development of common carcinomas and lymphomas represents a major cancer threat, particularly among individuals residing in developing countries, which account for 80% of the world's population. Even though these viruses are not the sole etiological agents of these cancers (as would be the case for infectious diseases), different approaches can be implemented to significantly decrease the incidence of virus-associated malignancies. The first approach is vaccination, which is available for HBV and possibly soon for EBV. The long delay between primary viral infection and development of associated tumors as well as the cost involved with administering vaccinations detracts from the feasibility of such an approach within developing countries. The second approach is to increase efforts to detect pre-cancerous lesions or early tumors using immunovirological means. This would allow early diagnosis and better treatment. The third strategy is linked to the existence of disease susceptibility genes, and suggests that counseling be provided for individuals carrying these genes to encourage them to modify their lifestyles and other conditions associated with increased cancer risks (predictive oncology). Specific recommendations include: a) increase international studies that explore the causes of the large variations in prevalence of common cancers throughout the world; b) conduct interdisciplinary studies involving laboratory investigation and social sciences, which may suggest hypotheses that may then be tested experimentally; and c) promote more preventive and health enhancement strategies in addition to curative and replacement therapies.

T1 - Research and prevention priorities for alcohol carcinogenesis.
AN - 21249876; 11703623
AB - Research conducted during the last four decades has established that consumption of alcoholic beverages causes cancer. Etiologic research questions that remain relate to increases in risk at specific sites, the effects of various types of alcoholic beverages, the effect of various concentrations of alcohol, and the mechanism(s) of action, including possible interactions with other agents such as tobacco smoke. Prevention priorities for alcohol-related cancer depend on whether alcohol causes only the upper aerodigestive cancers or whether it also causes breast and possibly colon cancers. If alcohol causes aerodigestive cancers only, existing prevention programs to prevent alcohol abuse by heavy drinkers are sufficient. The possible small cancer risk faced by moderate drinkers may be more than offset by a decrease in the risk of cardiovascular death. On the other hand, if alcohol consumption increases the occurrence of breast cancer, a prevention program aimed at women who are at high risk for breast cancer is worth considering, but the risks must be weighed against the cardiovascular benefits for moderate drinkers.

T1 - Zooplankton distribution in Raby Bay, south-east Queensland, Australia
AN - 16222570; 4223190
AB - Zooplankton distribution in a sub-tropical marine embayment, Raby Bay, south-east Queensland, Australia, its fringing mangroves and canal estate, was examined to determine whether high density aggregations of some zooplankters occurred within the canal system. High densities of Acartia tranteri were found in the innermost canals, and higher densities of cirripede nauplii were present in all canals compared with the bay area. It is suggested that these aggregations could be, localised, relatively rich foraging patches for zooplanktivorous larval and juvenile fish. In other respects zooplankton assemblages were similar, throughout all sites on each sampling occasion, indicating that tidal movements distribute most species to create a relatively homogenous assemblage of zooplankton in Raby Bay. Overall, the most abundant taxa were Acartia tranteri, Paracalanus crassirostris, Oithona spp., cirripede nauplii and gastropod veligers.

T1 - Levels of contaminants in effluent, sediment, and biota from Bai Bang, a bleached kraft pulp and paper mill in Vietnam
AN - 15911801; 4039378
AB - Chemical analyses of organochlorine compounds in effluents, sediment, and biota samples were done for the Bai Bang Paper Company (BAPACO), a bleached kraft pulp and paper mill in Vietnam. High chlorine consumption in the bleaching process resulted in a high specific discharge of adsorbable organic halogens (AOX), 4.7 kg/ton of air dried pulp (ADP), and polychlorinated phenolic compounds (31 g/ton ADP) in the effluent. The extractable organochlorine content in the accumulated fiber sludge of the sedimentation tank (70-100 mu g/g) was more than 100 times higher than the sediment from the receiving river. Chlorinated compounds including dioxins were detected at low levels in sediment and rice, crab, mollusc and fish samples. Significant amounts of the chlorinated persistent compounds are probably transported by the Red River to the river mouth and coastal area. Heavy metal content was high in sediment and mollusc samples from the receiving rice field and fish pond. There may be a possible risk for human intoxication of the metals through the aquatic food chain via the mollusc but not via the rice.

T1 - Potential for Bias in Epidemiologic Studies That Rely on Glass-Based Retrospective Assessment of Radon
AN - 14406924; 10511124
AB - Epidemiologic case control studies of radon exposure usually involve placing a device for measuring radon levels in the home of the subject for a long period of time, usually one year. Another method for determining radon doses is being developed, and measures the radon daughters that have become embedded in household glass. However, plateout of radon daughters is impeded by the presence of smoke. Therefore, historical radon exposure could be underestimated in homes with a smoky environment, thereby confounding results, because subjects with a history of smoke exposure should have higher exposure to radon daughters than those without such exposure. The measuring devices, however, would not reflect the high exposure, since the smoke would impede radon daughter plateout.

T1 - Environmental Urban Lead Exposure and Blood Lead Levels in Children of Mexico City
AN - 14406530; 10511123
AB - Two hundred children below the age of five living in two areas of Mexico city were tested for blood lead levels. In addition, sampling of environmental lead exposure was conducted, including measurement of levels in glazed ceramics; dust on floors, windows, and in the street; paint; water; and hand dirt on the children. Mean blood lead levels were 9.9 mu g/dl. Among children older than 18 months, 44% had blood lead levels above 10 mu g/dl. The environmental samples contained low levels of lead, except for glazed ceramics. This parameter was a major predictor of blood lead levels in subjects. Other predictors were exposure to lead from emissions from vehicles, and hand dirt lead levels. Reductions of lead in gasoline, and use of ceramics without lead would reduce lead exposure in the children of Mexico City.

T1 - Rethinking Recycling
AN - 14404043; 10511120
AB - Although recycling is increasing in popularity in the US, the analysis of its benefits raises some questions. For example, the costs of recycling in terms of money and expended energy may outweigh the benefits. However, it is generally agreed that recycling does prolong landfill life. The market for recyclables is quite variable, and although prices for recycled materials are up, the long-term outlook is for price declines. Quantification of environmental benefits from recycling are difficult to assess. Although paper recycling has been endorsed as a way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, there is some controversy. The trees used to make paper are a renewable resource, but the fossil fuels expended to recycle paper are not and these fuels add to greenhouse gases. Burning of used paper for fuel may be one solution to the problem. Glass making using recycled glass presents a similar problem, since the new more efficient furnaces use less fossil fuels, but cannot handle as much recycled glass as the older furnaces that used more fossil fuels. Manufacturing with recycled material may also use more energy than using virgin raw material. The energy cost of shipping recyclable material to the manufacturing site must also be considered.

T1 - Sidestream Tobacco Smoke Exposure Acutely Alters Human Nasal Mucociliary Clearance
AN - 14400793; 10511122
AB - Function of the nasal mucosa can be monitored by measuring nasal mucociliary clearance (NMC). This function is abnormal in smokers, but the effect of exposure to sidestream tobacco smoke on NMC in nonsmokers has not been studied. Twelve volunteers were exposed one time each to air or sidestream smoke for one hour on two occasions that were at least one week apart. One hour after exposure ended, NMC was measured. Half the subjects had increased NMC after exposure to sidestream smoke. Clearance was elevated in three of the twelve subjects after exposure to air or sidestream smoke. NMC decreases were noted in three subjects with a history of rhinitis caused by exposure to environmental tobacco smoke. Two subjects retained most of the radioactive tracer one hour after administration, which was two hours after exposure to sidestream smoke.

T1 - The Cancer Conundrum
AN - 14396411; 10511119
AB - In a few years cancer will be the leading cause of death in the US despite mandated efforts through the provisions of the National Cancer Act of 1971. Even when population aging and smoking habits are considered, the number of cancer cases continues to increase, although diagnostic improvements may be contributing to the figures. A review of the evidence for accepting some substances as human carcinogens is presented. These include exposure to pesticides; metals, including arsenic and cadmium; environmental tobacco smoke; radiation, including ionizing, UV, and electromagnetic; and air pollutants.

T1 - Official Languages, Symbolic Politics and Real Cuts: Language Policy in the USA
AN - 85326797; llba-9604279
AB - US language policy is discussed, covering bills that affect bilingual education, & the possibility of an English language amendment. The linguistic pluralism of Australia is more extensive than that of the US, & it is suggested that an English-only amendment in the US seems unnecessary, though it appears to be gaining in popularity. Six bills & two dissenting resolutions currently before the 104th Congress that would make English official are characterized, & the English-only platform of several Republican presidential hopefuls is contrasted with the opinion of Republican TX Governor George W. Bush. The establishment of bilingual education is traced to the 1968 Title Seven legislation & the 1974 Lau v Nicholls case, & subsequent changes in US attitudes toward bilingual education are addressed. An Aug 1995 court case is detailed, in which a judge decried a mother's speaking Spanish to her child as abuse & required the mother to speak only in English. It is hoped that President Clinton may veto the proposed bills, despite his pro-English-only stance as AR governor. D. Weibel

T1 - Profile of Undergraduates in U.S. Postsecondary Education Institutions: 1992-93. With an Essay on Undergraduates at Risk. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62671260; ED392852
AB - This report profiles undergraduates enrolled in postsecondary education for the academic year 1992-93. It relies on data from the 1992-93 National Postsecondary Student Aid Study, third in a series conducted by the Department of Education. The report begins with an essay that explores the extent to which undergraduates have outside responsibilities and enrollment patterns that increase their risk of not attaining a degree or postsecondary certificate. Following the essay, a compendium of tables provides comprehensive information about enrollment patterns, programs of study, student characteristics, financial aid receipt and employment, students' educational aspirations, and their community service participation. Not since the 1970s has the typical postsecondary student been a recent high school graduate enrolled full-time at a four-year school, and working toward a Bachelor's degree. On the contrary, such students represented only about one-third of undergraduates enrolled in 1992-93. The first section of the compendium contains detailed risk factor tables, and the remaining sections are marked to highlight topic findings. (Contains 9 text tables, 8 figures, and 58 tables in the compendium.) (SLD)

T1 - Characteristics of the 100 Largest Public Elementary and Secondary School Districts in the United States: 1992-93. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62668266; ED392850
AB - This publication provides basic descriptive information about the 100 largest school districts in the United States and its outlying areas. The information was provided by state education agencies about student membership, revenues, and expenditures. The 100 largest districts, representing fewer than 1% of the nation's school districts, serve about 23% of public school students and employ about 23% of public school teachers. Almost all of these districts encompass large cities, but only about half are confined to city limits. One-third of these districts are found in Florida, Texas, and California; and more than half of these large districts have minority enrollment of over 50%. In addition, schools in the 100 largest districts tend to be about 38% larger than the average American school. Information on school and student characteristics and school finances is presented in 10 basic tables. Three text tables establish a meaningful context for the information on the 100 school districts. Appendixes list the 500 largest school districts, and an alphabetical list of the 500 districts.

T1 - Teacher Supply in the United States: Sources of Newly Hired Teachers in Public and Private Schools, 1988-1991. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62665533; ED392851
AB - Data from this report on sources of new teachers in the United States are from the 1987-88 and 1990-91 Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS) of the National Center for Education Statistics, a multilevel linked survey of public and private schools, school districts, principals, and teachers. As fewer college graduates enter teaching, concerns have risen about possible teacher shortages. The SASS provides information to help in educational planning. In 1990-91, 177,000 teachers were newly hired in the nation's schools, an increase of 33% over 1988. These new hires accounted for 6% of the public teacher workforce and 13% of the private teacher workforce. Between 1988 and 1991 the sources of newly hired teachers shifted as both public and private schools hired relatively fewer reentrants, teachers returning after a break in service, and relatively more first-time teachers. First-time teachers represented about 53% of all public school new hires in 1991, with about 34% being newly prepared teachers and 19% being delayed entrants to teaching. Transfers from other teaching jobs supplied 16% of public and 22% of private new hires. (Contains 3 figures, 18 tables, and 22 references.) (SLD)

T1 - Working but Poor in America. AFL-CIO Reviews the Issues. Report No. 84.
AN - 62660821; ED388771
AB - In 1993, 10.4 million people were classified as being among the working poor. Of those individuals living in poverty, 2.4 million worked year round at full-time jobs and 7.4 million lived in a household containing someone who was employed full time throughout the year. A U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics report identified low earnings, involuntary part-time work, and unemployment as three key reasons for poverty. Another study established that the percentage of workers with low earnings rose from 12% of all year-round, full-time civilian workers aged 16 or over in 1979 to 16% in 1992. Among the identified causes of the rise were the following: steady erosion of wages in the United States, unemployment and underemployment, rise of low-wage service jobs and parallel decline in well-paying manufacturing jobs, restructuring of industry, and decline of pension and health insurance coverage. Although there is no panacea for poverty or the working poor, the following policy measures would make a big difference: strengthen labor laws, adopt national policies aimed at preserving high-wage manufacturing jobs, increase the minimum wage, retain existing employment and training and safety-net programs, retain a progressive tax policy, and fund education adequately.

T1 - Public School Teacher Cost Differences across the United States. Analysis/Methodology Report.
AN - 62657944; ED387884
AB - This document presents findings of a study that used a hedonic wage model to develop a national, geographical teacher cost index (TCI). The research sought to extend the analysis of teacher compensation to include not only variables that reflect the geographic cost-of-living, but also the amenities of the labor markets in which the public school districts are located. "Hedonic" considerations are those factors that attract workers to an area. The result was an estimated average teacher-salary cost index for each state and for regions in each state. The research drew on a sample of 40,484 public school teachers derived from the Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS) database for 1990-91. The study examined: (1) discretionary factors--the effects of teacher and job characteristics on patterns of variation in teacher salaries; (2) cost factors--the regional and school-district characteristics beyond local control; and (3) teacher cost differences by the type of school district. The TCI model was also compared with two alternative models. The data show a salary difference that favored males; some evidence points to lower salaries being paid to minorities of the same gender. Teachers with higher degree levels received higher salaries. Larger districts in more urbanized settings tended to pay higher teacher salaries for teachers with the same qualifications. The average TCI tended to be lowest in southern states and highest in northeastern states. Large urban school districts tended to have higher teacher costs. Finally, compensating differentials are necessary to attract teachers to remote regions. In conclusion, the TCI includes important factors beyond the costs of living that should be considered in examining how much more or less it costs to recruit and employ comparable teachers. Appended are technical notes; descriptive statistics and parameter estimates variables included in teacher salary regressions; and standard errors. Contains 48 references. (LMI)

Hearing before the Subcommittee on Science, Technology, and Space of the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. United States Senate, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session (Billings, Montana).
AN - 62655764; ED396898
AB - The Senate Subcommittee on Science, Technology, and Space held a hearing in Billings, Montana, on rural America's access to the National Information Infrastructure (NII) and uses of NII in the provision of rural education and services. An Assistant Secretary of Commerce discussed the development of the Internet, problems in rural access to the Internet and other information technologies, a federal grant program that helps rural communities to gain such access, and the effects of deregulation on rural access. A researcher outlined the potential impact of technology on rural schools, including opportunities for new distance learning models, for new models of student learning, and for improving teacher development. A health services administrator described the Eastern Montana Telemedicine Network, which delivers specialist physician consultation through video conferencing, delivers mental health consultative services, offers continuing medical and higher education programming to rural communities, and provides community outreach and telebusiness opportunities to geographically isolated communities. The computer systems and telecommunications director at Salish Kootenai College discussed the problems of providing telecommunications technology to tribal colleges on American Indian reservations and related problems involving rural telephone cooperatives, inadequate telephone service, and obsolete laws governing the delivery of utility services. Representatives of communications companies discussed the potential role of NII in promoting rural development and delivering rural services, and the need for continued Congressional action to support telecommunications competition.

T1 - Arts Education in Public Elementary and Secondary Schools. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62655626; ED388607
AB - This report, based on findings from The Elementary Arts Education Survey, 1994, looks at information regarding the general questions: (1) What art subjects are being taught in public schools? (2) How do schools and districts support arts education? (3) How have schools' arts programs changed compared to 5 years ago. Survey responses indicate that the primary focus of public school arts education is music and visual arts, with music instruction receiving more commitment than visual arts. Creative writing is typically incorporated into the language arts curriculum. Dance instruction by a dance specialist is rare, and dramatic and theatre activities are most often used by classroom teachers to reinforce instruction in other subjects. Elementary students are receiving about the same amount of instruction time in music and visual arts, although classroom teachers are more likely to teach visual arts than music, which is taught predominantly by music specialists. Very little is being done to promote arts education through external resources. But school districts' commitment to keeping arts education in the mainstream of basic education is evidenced by allocation of funds to arts education; developing and providing curriculum guidelines in arts subjects; and by employing an arts curriculum coordinator. An examination of changes in terms of arts programs as compared to 5 years ago indicates that increases in instructional time, number of arts staff, allocation of supplies and materials, funds for teachers' classroom use, and use of museums, galleries, and performances are reported by 20 to 30 percent of the respondents. Forty-one percent of elementary schools and 62 percent of secondary schools reported increases in enrollment. About half of the schools reported an increase in the number of courses offered, while 39 percent reported that the number of courses had remained the same. Fifteen tables present survey data. The appendices present the following: "Survey Methodology and Data Reliability"; "Tables of Standard Errors"; and examples of survey forms. (MM)

AN - 62570866; ED403326
AB - The National Assessment Governing Board and the National Center for Education Statistics sponsored a Joint Conference on Standard Setting for Large-Scale Assessments to provide a forum for technical and policy issues relevant to setting standards at local, state, and national levels. Volume I contains an executive summary of the conference and synopses of the conference papers. This volume comprises the papers prepared for the conference and summaries of the plenary sessions and small breakout sessions. Educators were invited to present papers on issues within historical, theoretical, methodological, application, or policy perspectives. The 19 invited papers explore 6 major themes identified by the authors of the executive summary. These are: (1) multiple meanings and uses of standards; (2) methods of setting standards; (3) new directions and technical issues in setting standards; (4) fairness and validity in setting standards; (5) problems and controversies; and (6) areas of agreement in setting and using standards. While the conference did not result in consensus on how standards ought to be set for large scale assessments, it did bring together many experts in the field, and it did promote an understanding of the multifaceted issues involved in standard setting. Each paper contains references. (SLD)

T1 - International Military Education and Training: An Assessment. McNair Paper 44.
AN - 62557853; ED406567
AB - This report presents results of a study team's analysis of the extent to which International Military Education and Training (IMET) serves U.S. interests. It describes whether IMET has done the following: (1) facilitated access to senior military and political leaders and promoted communication between the United States and recipient countries; (2) provided an effective introduction to U.S. political values; (3) contributed to improving political-military relations in recipient countries; and (4) served as an important asset for interoperability in coalition peace and humanitarian assistance operations. The analysis of IMET's effectiveness is organized in five parts: the legislative roots of the program and its relationship to foreign military sales; the structure of IMET in FY 1995, emphasizing the importance of IMET's original synergy of English language training, a professional course of instruction conducted in the United States, and the Department of Defense's Informational Program; an assessment of the effectiveness of international military educational and training made possible by IMET and other funding options; contributions toward achieving regional stability, improving multilateral cooperative military relationships with the United States, and supporting U.S. diplomatic interests overseas and economic interests at home; and making a good program better. The report concludes that IMET is one of the few foreign-aid initiatives that Congress continues to consider relevant, useful, and worthy of funding. (Contains 68 notes.) (YLB)

AB - The National Assessment Governing Board and the National Center for Education Statistics sponsored a Joint Conference on Standard Setting for Large-Scale Assessments to provide a forum for technical and policy issues relevant to setting standards at local, state, and national levels. This executive summary conveys the essence of the conference by combining its information into major themes rather than merely providing abstracts of the papers. Renowned educators were invited to present papers on issues within historical, theoretical, methodological, application, or policy perspectives. The six major themes identified in their presentations were: (1) multiple meanings and uses of standards; (2) methods of setting standards; (3) new directions and technical issues in setting standards; (4) fairness and validity in setting standards; (5) problems and controversies; and (6) areas of agreement in setting and using standards. The conference did not result in professional consensus on how standards ought to be set for large-scale assessments, but it did bring together many of the people most active in the field of standard setting, and it did promote an understanding of the multifacted issues involved in standard setting. Abstracts of 19 papers are attached. (Contains four references.) (SLD)

AB - In a comment on Somboon Sungoonshorn's & A. T. M. Nurul Amin's discussion (see abstract in SOPODA 18:1) of the constraints on informal sector (IS) workers' access to social services in Bangkok, Thailand, slums, it is asserted that their study was limited by the short time span & small samples. Their findings contradict those of other studies, & which show that IS workers in Bangkok receive higher incomes than other major groups in Thailand. The lack of IS demand for nonwelfare services suggests that IS workers in Bangkok are not as poor as frequently assumed. Questions remain about how services can reach the country's large population & whether the current decisionmakers in the public sector will implement the changes. S. Jameson

AB - A comment on Somboon Sungoonshorn's & A. T. M. Nurul Amin's discussion (see abstract in SOPODA 18:1) of constraints on access to social services for informal sector workers of Bangkok, Thailand. They fail to recognize the heterogeneity of slum dwellers & ambiguous distinction between the formal & informal sectors. While their assertion that vocational training would not adequately address the problems faced by unskilled migrant workers in urban slums due to lack of service utilization is accurate, it is concluded that Bangkok's urban poverty is not simply the result of lack of access to services; poverty alleviation should include the introduction of safety nets.

T1 - The Informal Sector's Access to Local Government Services: Focus on Bangkok's Slums
AN - 61565264; 199603771
AB - Urban informal sector workers' access to governmental social services was examined in a 1994/95 questionnaire survey of 144 inhabitants of 3 slum areas in Bangkok, Thailand, evaluating experiences with access to credit, training, market information, education, health care, & moral & spiritual development. It is asserted that an overlapping of urban poor, slums, & the informal sector creates a multifaceted problem. An analysis of Bangkok's Seventh National Economic & Social Development Plan (1992-1996) & Bangkok Metropolitan Administration's welfare & nonwelfare services suggests that while access to services is limited, currently available services are rarely utilized anyway. It is concluded that public service providers are failing to distribute information, & barriers are created by rigid procedures, lack of coordination among agencies, distance from community, bureaucratic inefficiencies, & lack of public accountability.

T1 - Effects of estrogenic chemicals on development.
AN - 21275650; 11701711
AB - The sum of the evidence supports the necessity to continue to investigate the developmental effects of estrogenic and antiestrogenic compounds when exposure occurs early in life. Additional studies will answer questions relevant to the molecular definition of the developmental or carcinogenic effects of estrogens such as hormone-induced gene alterations. These studies also support the need to use the neonatal mouse model to demonstrate the consequences of reproductive and nonreproductive stem-cell exposure to estrogenic compounds. Images Figure 2.

T1 - Estrogens in unexpected places: possible implications for researchers and consumers.
AN - 21264418; 11703617
AB - Estrogenic activity originating in unexpected places was encountered on three occasions during an investigation of whether Saccharomyces cerevisiae synthesized estrogens. In each instance, estradiol found in the conditioned yeast culture medium originated from an exogenous source and was not synthesized by the yeast. In the first instance, yeast grown in the laboratory showed a time-dependent increase in estradiol in the conditioned medium. However, the culture medium supplement Bacto-peptone was found to contain large amounts of estrone. When added to yeast cultures in the form of YPD medium (yeast extract, Bacto-peptone, and dextrose), S. cerevisiae converted the estrone to estradiol leading to the accumulation of estradiol over time. In the second instance, commercially purchased S. cerevisiae grown in a molasses medium exhibited substantial amounts of estradiol. However, corn and beet molasses contained sufficient estrone and estradiol to account for the findings. As in the first instance, the yeast converted the estrone into estradiol. In the third instance, autoclaving culture medium in polycarbonate plastic flasks was found to cause an estrogenic substance to be added to the medium, whether yeast were present or not. It was determined that the autoclaving process leached bisphenol-A (BPA) out of the polycarbonate plastic. BPA was shown to bind to estrogen receptors and to induce estrogenic activity, including stimulation of MCF-7 breast cancer-cell proliferation and induction of the expression of progesterone receptors. The three instances highlight potential problems for investigators who might inadvertently add estrogens to experimental systems confounding their results. The BPA findings raise concerns about the possible addition of this estrogenic molecule to the food supply since polycarbonate plastic is used in myriad applications in the packaging of food and beverages. Although we are unaware of the substantial contamination of food products with BPA, we believe this possibility should be carefully investigated.

T1 - Mouse lactoferrin gene: a marker for estrogen and epidermal growth factor.
AN - 21260836; 11701715
AB - Lactoferrin mRNA in the 21-day-old mouse uterus can be increased several hundredfold by estrogen. The physiological role of lactoferrin in mouse uterus is unclear; however, it can be a useful marker for the estrogen action in the uterus. The structural organization and the chromosome location of the lactoferrin gene are similar to members of the transferrin gene family. At the 5' flanking region of the lactoferrin gene, we have characterized two modules that respond to estrogen and growth factor stimulation. Each module is composed of either overlapping or multiple transcription factor-binding elements. The well-characterized estrogen and growth factor response modules in the mouse lactoferrin gene could serve as the foundation to understand the intricate molecular mechanisms of estrogen action and its relationship to growth factors.

T1 - Cellular and molecular effects of developmental exposure to diethylstilbestrol: implications for other environmental estrogens.
AN - 21253385; 11701712
AB - Concerns have been raised regarding the role of environmental and dietary estrogens as possible contributors to an increased incidence of various abnormalities in estrogen-target tissues of both sexes. These abnormalities include breast cancer, endometriosis, fibroids, and uterine adenocarcinoma in females, as well as alterations in sex differentiation, decreased sperm concentrations, benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostatic cancer, testicular cancer, and reproductive problems in males. Whether these concerns are valid remains to be determined; however, studies with the potent synthetic estrogen diethylstilbestrol (DES) suggest that exogenous estrogen exposure during critical stages of development can result in permanent cellular and molecular alterations in the exposed organism. These alterations manifest themselves in the female and male as structural, functional, or long-term pathological changes including neoplasia. Although DES has potent estrogenic activity, it may be used as a model compound to study the effects of weaker environmental estrogens, many of which may fit into the category of endocrine disruptors.

T1 - Effects of sex hormones on oncogene expression in the vagina and on development of sexual dimorphism of the pelvis and anococcygeus muscle in the mouse.
AN - 21252430; 11701710
AB - Neonatal treatment of female mice with diethystilbestrol (DES) is known to induce ovary-independent persistent proliferation and cornification of vaginal epithelium. This irreversibly changed vaginal epithelium persistently expressed higher levels of c-jun and c-fos mRNAs, which was not altered by postpubertal estrogen. Sexual dimorphism was encountered in mouse pelvis and anococcygeus muscle. Postpubertal estrogen changed the shape of the pelvis to the female type and postpubertal androgen changed it to the male type. Neonatal exposure to DES and to the antiestrogen tamoxifen altered the developmental pattern of the pelvis, which contained lower concentrations of calcium and phosphorus than controls. The size of anococcygeus muscle was increased by postpubertal androgen but decreased by postpubertal estrogen. However, neonatal estrogen (DES) exposure permanently enlarged the anococcygeus muscle. Thus, neonatal treatment of mice with estrogen and antiestrogen results in irreversible changes in nonreproductive as well as reproductive structures.

T1 - Declining semen quality and increasing incidence of testicular cancer: is there a common cause?
AN - 21251448; 11701708
AB - Male reproduction has been given little attention in science and in medical practice. However, a recent metaanalysis on semen quality, which clearly pointed to a decrease over the past 50 years, has been repeatedly quoted. Three recent reports have found that semen quality has declined among candidate semen donors during the past 20 years. The evidence of decline in the quality of semen is not the only indicator that the human testis is at risk. During the past 50 years, cancer of the testis has also become more common. This is a disorder of young men, and it is associated with a high rate of other abnormalities of the testis including undescended testis and poor semen quality. Furthermore, the incidence of both hypospadias and undescended testis has been reported to be rising in the general population. We believe that the evidence of declining semen quality should be seen in the light of these trends in other reproductive disorders of men. However, the etiology is unknown. A recent hypothesis that links the trends in the health of the male reproductive system to xenoestrogens in the environment is discussed.

T1 - Estrogen receptor accessory proteins: effects on receptor-DNA interactions.
AN - 21249891; 11704924
AB - Despite a wealth of information about the structure and composition of steroid receptors and their functional domains, little is known about the role of accessory proteins as mediators of receptor activity. To better define the role of such proteins in estrogen receptor (ER) function, we have used immunoaffinity, steroid affinity, and site-specific DNA-affinity chromatography to identify and characterize proteins that associate with human ER (hER) in extracts from MCF-7 cells and hER-expressing CHO (CHO-ER) cells. In addition to the expected 66-kDa hER, a 70-kDa protein was obtained and subsequently identified as a member of the heat shock protein family (hsp70). A 55-kDa protein, detected by all three approaches, was identified as a member of the protein disulfide isomerase family (PDI). Two proteins that were preferentially retained by an ER-specific DNA affinity column (p48 and p45) remain unidentified. Maximal interaction of purified hER with the vitellogenin A2 estrogen response element (ERE) occurred in the presence of all four associated proteins isolated by DNA-affinity chromatography. The increased stability of this complex was due primarily to an increase in the association rate of hER with ERE. Thus, accessory proteins may be required for optimal interaction of ER with EREs.

T1 - The goldfish as a model for studying neuroestrogen synthesis, localization, and action in the brain and visual system.
AN - 21249871; 11703618
AB - Organizational and activational effects of estrogen (E) in the central nervous system (CNS) are exerted directly by circulating E and indirectly after aromatization of circulating androgen to E in the brain itself. Understanding an environmental chemical's ability to disrupt E-dependent neural processes, therefore, requires attention to both pathways. Because aromatase (Aro) is highly expressed in teleost brain, when compared to mammals and other vertebrates, fish are technically advantageous for localization and regulation studies and may also provide a model in which the functional consequences of brain-derived (neuro-)E synthesis are exaggerated. Recently, Aro was immunolocalized in cell bodies and fiber projections of second- and third-order neurons of the goldfish retina and in central visual processing areas. Authentic Aro enzyme activity was verified biochemically, suggesting a heretofore unrecognized role of sex steroids in the visual system. Initial studies show that in vivo treatment with aromatizable androgen or E increases calmodulin synthesis and calmodulin protein in retina and also affects retinal protein and DNA. Whether there are related changes in the processing of visual information that is essential for seasonal reproduction or in the generative and regenerative capacity of the goldfish visual system requires further investigation.

T1 - The E-SCREEN Assay as a Tool to Identify Estrogens: an Update on Estrogenic Environmental Pollutants
AN - 14409001; 10514750
AB - The E-SCREEN assay analyzes the estrogenicity of environmental chemicals by gauging the proliferative effect of estrogens on target cells as an end point. The system measures estrogen-induced increases in the number of human breast MCF-7 cells. When used to test the estrogenicity of chemicals released into the environment in large volumes, the assay detected several new estrogens, including some PCB congeners, alkylphenols, and phthalates. These compounds competed with estradiol for binding to the estrogen receptor and raised levels of progesterone receptor cells.

T1 - Vitellogenesis as a Biomarker for Estrogenic Contamination of the Aquatic Environment
AN - 14408147; 10514754
AB - Field research demonstrated that effluents from a sewage treatment plant contained chemicals that induced vitellogenin synthesis in male fish, signalling the estrogenic nature of the waste. The specific chemical or compounds inducing this effect was not identified, but trials with chemicals known to be estrogenic to mammals confirmed their estrogenic influence on fish. A mixture of different estrogenic substances was markedly more potent relative to each chemical tested alone, implying that enhanced effects are possible when fish are subjected simultaneously to different estrogenic compounds.

T1 - Developmental Effects of Dioxins
AN - 14408108; 10514749
AB - The developmental effects of dioxins can be classified as intermediate, delayed, structural, or functional, and tend to resemble those observed with effects on multiple hormone systems. While not a typical antiestrogen, dioxin can alter the metabolism of this hormone and reduce its active form at target sites. Dioxin modulation of hormones and their receptors disrupts homeostasis and hormonal balances, leading to alterations in differentiation and proliferation.

T1 - Environmental Organochlorine Exposure as a Potential Etiologic Factor in Breast Cancer
AN - 14407206; 10514751
AB - Recent research suggests that organochlorine exposure may be a risk factor for breast cancer. In vitro tests demonstrate the ability of estrogen and its synthetic analogs to induce proliferation of breast cancer cells in culture. A feasible model can be created around the ability of these chemicals to induce cytochrome P450 enzymes, which in turn activate certain chemical carcinogens. Data point to a link with DDT exposure, while results for PCB have been difficult to interpret. Analysis of the breast cancer link from PCB exposure will entail greater emphasis on congener structures in complex mixtures and on temporal trends in exposure.

T1 - Organization Versus Activation: the Role of Endocrine-Disrupting Contaminants (EDCs) During Embryonic Development in Wildlife
AN - 14406713; 10514752
AB - Endocrine-disrupting contaminants (EDCs) appear to affect embryonic development in some wildlife species. Reptiles have been studied as sentinels of exposure to EDCs because of lability in their sex determination. Recent research demonstrated that EDCs altered the balance of reproductive hormones in a Florida alligator population, resulting in reproductive dysfunction. The influence of EDCs in nature can be understood only after complete analysis of both organizational and activational alterations. Organizational theories suggest that exposure to a small dose of an EDC during a specific period of embryonic growth can permanently change the organization of nervous, immune, and reproductive systems.

T1 - Reproductive Effects in Birds Exposed to Pesticides and Industrial Chemicals
AN - 14406246; 10514753
AB - Research has identified various pesticides and industrial chemicals that cause mortality and reproductive impairment in birds. Embryonic impacts include reduced hatchability, mortality, and teratological effects that result in impaired differentiation of nervous and reproductive systems. Sublethal stress, reduced fertility, eggshell thinning, and other impacts on adult birds have been documented. Heavy metals, petroleum hydrocarbons, and organochlorine and proganophosphate pesticides have been implicated. PCBs, DDT, and mixtures of organochlorines have been identified as environmental estrogens affecting breeding gulls in polluted hot spots of the US.

T1 - Biokinetics of Nuclear Fuel Compounds and Biological Effects of Nonuniform Radiation
AN - 14396249; 10508598
AB - Radioactive particles of nuclear fuel compounds that are insoluble, or hot particles, can be released during accidents or as normal emissions from nuclear power plants. They are also released testing of nuclear weapons. The effect of human exposure to hot particles is not well studied, although occupational exposures to plutonium dioxide and exposure to uranium in fallout from Chernobyl have been reported. A review of the biological and biokinetic effects on laboratory animals and cell cultures is presented. Experimental animals do not absorb appreciable amounts of plutonium dioxide or uranium dioxide via the gastrointestinal tract. Hot particle inhalation causes pulmonary tumors in laboratory animals. Nonuniform delivery of ionizing radiation to the target organ is generally considered less carcinogenic than uniform delivery. Exposure to nonuniform beta -irradiation results in permanent wound development prior to development of cancer. Cell proliferation and growth genes mutate and are overexpressed when cultures or animals are exposed to hot particles.

T1 - A Longitudinal Study of Chronic Lead Exposure and Physical Growth in Boston Children
AN - 14392801; 10508600
AB - Of 270 children in Boston who were examined for lead levels in dentin, weight, and height from 1975 to 1978, 79 were reexamined in 1989 to 1990 for bone lead levels, weight, and height. None of the subjects had been treated with lead chelation, and all subjects were white, to reduce confounding factors. A positive correlation between the log of the dentin lead level, early body mass, and body mass index increase was found. No association between growth and bone lead levels was noted.

T1 - Sustaining Health in the Southern Hemisphere
AN - 14391576; 10508596
AB - Until 1788, indigenous people maintained sustainable land use in Australia. With the arrival of English settlers land use was primarily agricultural, until the industrialization that occurred in response to a great influx of immigrants after World War II. Environmental health responsibility resides with states and territories. A review of air, water, and soil pollution problems is presented, and measures taken by the government to counteract and prevent environmental degradation are outlined. New Zealand promotes its reputation as a clean and green country. However, the country has the same problems with ozone depletion that Australia has. The Maoris, who have lived in New Zealand 1000 years a have a long standing commitment to environmental conservation. During the 1960s and 1970s, there was a brief effort to establish large industries in New Zealand, and the resulting pollution problems were handled by a ministry for the environment. Sustainability became an official national goal with passage of the Resource Management Act of 1991. A brief discussion of air and water pollution problems is presented.

T1 - Health Effects in a Casual Sample of Immigrants to Israel from Areas Contaminated by the Chernobyl Explosion
AN - 14390742; 10508599
AB - After the Chernobyl contamination incident, more than 1500 immigrants to Israel from the former USSR were surveyed by questionnaire and physical examination. Two groups of immigrants were formed, according to the amount of cesium 137 contamination of soil in their former homes. Body burdens of super(137)Cs confirmed the groupings. A third group of 55 liquidators, worked at Chernobyl after the accident, and self reported higher incidence of health complaints and hypertension. Children from communities with greater exposure had higher rates of asthma and other health complaints. In utero exposed children had asthma rates that were eight times normal. Hypertension rates were higher in older adults from areas of greater exposure. Exposure to radiation from the Chernobyl accident resulted in several health affects that were not associated with malignancy.

T1 - Common Sense Government. Works Better and Costs Less. Third Report of the National Performance Review.
AN - 62663193; ED387065
AB - This publication reports on the progress of the Clinton Administration's effort to reinvent the Federal government bureaucracy and how it operates and serves citizens. Part 1, "A Government that Makes Sense," describes the progress that reinventing government has made and reviews the context in which the initiative was launched including analysis of how the Federal government became too bureaucratic and why it failed to keep up with technological advances. Part 2, "Getting Results," describes how the reinventing effort has tried to get results rather than focus on rules through regulatory overhaul. It describes specific examples of regulatory simplification and creative responses to getting services to citizens more effectively. Part 3, "Putting Customers First," describes the effort to learn what those who use government agencies want and to change services to meet customer desires. Part 4, "Getting Our Money's Worth," describes how this initiative has worked to manage money and other assets well and save significantly toward reducing the federal deficit through eliminating unnecessary programs, improving purchasing, and holding agencies accountable. The concluding Part reflects on the place of trust and personal responsibility in good government. Appendixes contain information on the status of the recommendations, new recommendations, regulatory reform efforts, summary of savings, and executive and legislative actions taken. (Each chapter contains reference notes.) (JB)

T1 - Is It Working? Self-Help Guide for Evaluating Vocational and Adult Education Programs.
AN - 62670584; ED394012
AB - This guide, which was adapted from a 1987 evaluation guide for bilingual vocational training, is intended for directors, staff, and evaluators of local adult and vocational education programs. It presents an overall framework that program staff and evaluators can use to help establish the scope of their evaluations and meet their local evaluation needs. The guide consists of a brief introduction and seven sections devoted to the following topics: evaluation process and plans, evaluation framework program environment, program participants, program implementation, program outcomes, and presentation of findings. The materials presented in each section are intended to provide direction for planning relevant evaluations that meet the unique needs of local programs. A compendium of evaluation questions that may be used as a foundation for structuring a local evaluation is provided. Specific guidance for conducting the various data collection activities entailed in a comprehensive program evaluation is given. Appended are seven sample data collection forms (student intake form, program profile, student instructional status/attendance form, initial job placement information form, student and employer follow-up questionnaires, and job placement follow-up questionnaire) and guidelines for measuring the English language proficiency of limited-English-proficient adults.

T1 - Public Libraries in the United States: 1993. E.D. TABS.
AN - 62669334; ED387148
AB - The tables in this report summarize information about public libraries in fiscal year 1993. These data were collected through the sixth Public Libraries Survey. Respondents for this census were the 8,929 public libraries identified in the 50 states and District of Columbia, by state library agencies. Over 71% of the population of legally served areas in the United States were served by fewer than 11% of public libraries; 1,454 public libraries (over 16%) reported one or more branch library outlets, with a total of 7,017; total operating expenditures for public libraries were over $4.7 billion in 1993; libraries reported a total of nearly 111,945 paid full-time equivalent (FTE) staff; and total nationwide circulation of library materials was nearly 1.6 billion, or 6.5 per capita. The report begins by presenting highlights of the findings. The introduction then describes the terminology used in the document; the universe represented by the data; data collection and use of the technology; and quality review of the data. Also included are caveats for using the data; information on ordering machine readable data and publications; and a source for further information on public library statistics. The data are presented in 19 sets of tables, which make up the major part of this report. Data is provided on staffing; operating income and expenditures; type of governance; type of administrative structure; size of collection; and service measures such as reference transactions; public service hours; interlibrary loan; circulation; and library visits. Appendices include background of the Federal-State Cooperative System (FSCS), a glossary, and a list of states with overlapping population of legal service area. (MAS)

T1 - The Art and Science of Audio Book Production.
AN - 62668769; ED393455
AB - The diverse skills and technologies necessary to achieve high levels of artistic and technical quality in audio book production are called audio book art and science. This document explains the principles of audio book art and science and is divided into three sections: "Communication Art in Audio Book Production,""Science in Audio Book Production," and "Position Descriptions for Audio Book Production Staff." The first section focuses on narration as a communication art. Voice, speech, language, and narration skill are highlighted as the primary components of narration. The physical, mental, and artistic enhancing factors of narration are described and the importance of correct pronunciation is noted. A list of criteria for evaluating an audio book original master recording follows. The next section discusses narration and host environments, ideal ventilation and quality of lighting, and specifications for original master recordings and running masters (composite recordings made from two consecutive original masters). Examples of quality assurance and quality control methods are also provided. The last section describes the purpose, amount of supervision received, requirements, and responsibilities for the narrator, monitor, and reviewer. (AEF)

T1 - Learning To Work: Making the Transition from School to Work.
AN - 62666305; ED387594
AB - The Senate Committee on Labor and Human Resources and the House Committee on Education and Labor (now the House Committee on Economic and Educational Opportunities) asked the Office of Technology Assessment to examine the potential opportunities and possible pitfalls of work-based learning that would be supported by the School to Work Opportunities Act (STWOA). Three main questions are addressed: (1) What are the alternative models of work-based learning and how effective are they? (2) What new learning technologies could support work-based learning? and (3) How can employers be persuaded to provide work-based learning experiences for students? This report assesses the potential of work-based learning as a component of the school-to-work transition systems that are currently being developed in many states and local school districts. Chapter 1 reports the findings about work-based learning and the STWOA. Chapter 2 discusses the history of work-based learning in the United States as well as problems with school-to-work transitions and provides an overview of STWOA. Chapter 3 describes and analyzes the apparent advantages and disadvantages of five learning processes that can be used in work settings: experiential learning, work-group learning, mentoring, workplace instruction, and technology-assisted learning. Chapter 4 discusses various ways that work-based learning can be structured with respect to the following: the types of students who are served; the program objectives; the coordination with schooling; the timing, intensity, duration, and progression of work-based experiences; the settings of work-based learning; and the issue of payment for students. Chapter 5 describes various models of school-to-work transition programs with work-based learning and summarizes the evidence on their effectiveness. These models are youth apprenticeships, clinical training, cooperative education, school-to-apprenticeship programs, school-based enterprises, and career academies. Chapter 6 considers the factors that influence whether or not employers will participate in work-based learning programs. (YLB)

T1 - Report to Congress on Out-of-Wedlock Childbearing.
AN - 62665543; ED398317
AB - This report summarizes the current status and trends in nonmarital childbearing in the United States, and presents a series of supplemental papers by experts from social science disciplines. "Nonmarital Childbearing in the United States" (Kristin A. Moore) introduces the topic, indicating that nearly a third of all births in the country occurred outside of marriage in 1993. However, Americans are not having more babies; they are having fewer marriages. "The Demography of Out-of-Wedlock Childbearing" (Stephanie J. Ventura, Christine A. Bachrach, Laura Hill, Kelleen Kaye, Pamela Holcomb, and Elisa Koff) provides the statistics that support the discussion. The following expert papers provide commentary on aspects of the situation: (1) "The Retreat from Marriage and the Rise in Nonmarital Fertility" (Daniel T. Lichter); (2) "Family Structure and Nonmarital Fertility: Perspectives from Ethnographic Research" (Linda M. Burton); (3) "The Effect of the Welfare System on Nonmarital Childbearing" (Robert A. Moffitt); (4) "How Nonmarital Childbearing Is Affected by Neighborhoods, Marital Opportunities and Labor-Market Conditions" (Greg J. Duncan); (5) "Access to and Utilization of Preventative Services: Implications for Nonmarital Childbearing" (Martha R. Burt); (6) "Attitudes, Values, and Norms Related to Nonmarital Fertility" (Arland Thornton); (7) "Risk Factors for Adolescent Nonmarital Childbearing" (Brent C. Miller); (8) "The Consequences of Nonmarital Childbearing for Women, Children, and Society" (Sara S. McLanahan); and (9) "Strategies To Reduce Nonmarital Childbearing" (Theodora Doms). Appendixes present data tables and tables of fertility ratios. (Contains 68 figures, 58 references, 28 appendix tables, 4 tables, and 1 chart in the expert papers.) (SLD)

T1 - Risks to Students in School.
AN - 62541826; ED399669
AB - Every day, school-aged children encounter a wide variety of hazards that occur both outside and inside schools. This document presents findings of a report that examined the scientific data on the risks for student injury and illness in the school environment. The information is designed to help administrators set priorities for reducing risks to students. The report focuses on the risks that students between 5 to 18 years old encounter while they are at school, on the school grounds, at school-related activities, and traveling to and from school. Key findings include: (1) The two leading causes of death in school-aged children are motor vehicles and firearms; however, relatively few of these deaths occur in schools or on school buses; (2) quite often, the relative safety of schools, on a national average basis, is unknown; and (3) schools contribute to the risks of injury or illness in school-aged children; however, little is known about schools' contribution to nonfatal illness and injury. Finally, national data, particularly for environmental hazards, were usually inadequate to assess the risks to students. Data are presented for incidence of unintentional injuries, including playground-related, school-athletics, transportation, school-bus-related, pedestrian injuries, along with data for intentional injuries, including school-associated violent deaths and weapons. Information is presented for illness caused by environmental hazards, such as asbestos and lead, and for those that arise from exposure to infectious agents. Suggestions for comparing and managing risks are offered. References accompany each chapter. Eight figures and 35 tables are included. (LMI)

T1 - Evaluation of a possible association of urban air toxics and asthma.
AN - 21345287; 7698872
AB - The prevalence of asthma, measured either as the frequency of hospital admissions or number of deaths attributed to asthma, has increased over the last 15 to 20 years. Rapid increases in disease prevalence are more likely to be attributable to environmental than genetic factors. Inferring from past associations between air pollution and asthma, it is feasible that changes in the ambient environment could contribute to this increase in morbidity and mortality. Scientific evaluation of the links between air pollution and the exacerbation of asthma is incomplete, however. Currently, criteria pollutants [SOx, NOx, O3, CO, Pb, particulate matter (PM10)] and other risk factors (exposure to environmental tobacco smoke, volatile organic compounds, etc.) are constantly being evaluated as to their possible contributions to this situation. Data from these studies suggest that increases in respiratory disease are associated with exposures to ambient concentrations of particulate and gaseous pollutants. Similarly, exposure to environmental tobacco smoke, also a mixture of particulate and gaseous air toxics, has been associated with an increase in asthma among children. In addition, current associations of adverse health effects with existing pollution measurements are often noted at concentrations below those that produce effects in controlled animal and human exposures to each pollutant alone. These findings imply that adverse responses are augmented when persons are exposed to irritant mixtures of particles and gases and that current measurements of air pollution are, in part, indirect in that the concentrations of criteria pollutants are acting as surrogates of our exposure to a complex mixture. Other irritant air pollutants, including certain urban air toxics, are associated with asthma in occupational settings and may interact with criteria pollutants in ambient air to exacerbate asthma. An evaluation of dose-response information for urban air toxics and biological feasibility as possible contributors to asthma is therefore needed. However, this evaluation is compounded by a lack of information on the concentrations of these compounds in the ambient air and their effects on asthma morbidity and mortality. Through an initial review of the current toxicological literature, we propose a tentative list of 30 compounds that could have the highest impact on asthma and respiratory health. These compounds were selected based on their ability to induce or exacerbate asthma in occupational and nonoccupational settings, their allergic potential and ability to react with biological macromolecules, and lastly, their ability to irritate the respiratory passages. We recommend better documentation of exposure to these compounds through routine air sampling and evaluation of total exposure and further evaluation of biological mechanisms through laboratory and epidemiological studies directed specifically at the role these substances play in the induction and exacerbation of asthma.

T1 - Biomarkers and pediatric environmental health.
AN - 21270414; 11701704
AB - It is now possible to identify biochemical and/or cellular changes in humans due to exposure to an environmental toxin. These changes are called biomarkers and are currently used in research studies to identify individuals exposed to specific toxic substances. Advances in the field of biomarker technology may have important implications for the detection, prevention, and treatment of certain diseases in children. This technology may enable physicians to screen children who have no clinically detectable illness for evidence of exposure to specific toxins. Such information could lead to implementation of preventive measures and development of new therapeutic strategies. However, several important issues, including potential adverse consequences resulting from the widespread use of this technology, must be considered prior to its utilization within a clinical setting. Leaders of the pediatric and public health communities should recognize the paucity of scientific data in the pediatric environmental health area, and new approaches to this important aspect of child health should be developed. This article will address several of the issues involved in pediatric environmental health and consider questions that should be answered as the potential for technology transfer becomes a reality.

T1 - Indoor air pollution and childhood asthma: effective environmental interventions.
AN - 21268746; 11703611
AB - Exposure to indoor air pollutants such as tobacco smoke and dust mites may exacerbate childhood asthma. Environmental interventions to reduce exposures to these pollutants can help prevent exacerbations of the disease. Among the most important interventions is the elimination of environmental tobacco smoke from the environments of children with asthma. However, the effectiveness of reducing asthmatic children's exposure to environmental tobacco smoke on the severity of their symptoms has not yet been systematically evaluated. Dust mite reduction is another helpful environmental intervention. This can be achieved by enclosing the child's mattresses, blankets, and pillows in zippered polyurethane-coated casings. Primary prevention of asthma is not as well understood. It is anticipated that efforts to reduce smoking during pregnancy could reduce the incidence of asthma in children. European studies have suggested that reducing exposure to food and house dust mite antigens during lactation and for the first 12 months of life diminishes the development of allergic disorders in infants with high total IgE in the cord blood and a family history of atopy. Many children with asthma and their families are not receiving adequate counseling about environmental interventions from health care providers or other sources.

AB - Children may be more susceptible to exposures to environmental toxins than adults and may be more vulnerable to their effects. Because of this, the health care community and those responsible for children need to be alert to possible environmental factors in identifying and responding to the health problems of children. Their focus should be on the causes of the health problem, emphasizing environmental sources, and not on simply treating the symptoms.

T1 - Age-specific oncogenesis: the genetics of cancer susceptibility.
AN - 21262100; 11701703
AB - Cancer is considered to be a multifactorial disease in which a host cell is transformed from normal to malignant as a result of complex interactions of external (environmental) stimuli and cancer-predisposing or cancer-suppressing genes. Although certain chemical carcinogens and ionizing radiation are known to cause specific alterations at the level of the gene, other correlations are less clear. Not infrequently, cancer is found to aggregate in families in an apparently nonrandom fashion. It has been through the study of such families that our understanding of the genetic events leading to cancer has developed. Both common and rare tumors may occur together in familial-cancer families. Frequently, tumors occur at an earlier age than one would expect in the general population; often, multiple tumors of different organs develop in a particular affected family member. Recent advances in the genetics of familial cancer syndromes have led to the possibility to perform genetic testing on unaffected relatives who might carry a genetic defect that predisposes them to cancer. Complex ethical, social, and legal implications arise from these new technical advances.

T1 - Neurobehavioral effects of developmental methylmercury exposure.
AN - 21262080; 11701706
AB - Methylmercury (MeHg) is a global environmental problem and is listed by the International Program of Chemical Safety as one of the six most dangerous chemicals in the world's environment. Human exposure to MeHg primarily occurs through the consumption of contaminated food such as fish, although catastrophic exposures due to industrial pollution have occurred. The fetus is particularly sensitive to MeHg exposure and adverse effects on infant development have been associated with levels of exposure that result in few, if any, signs of maternal clinical illness or toxicity. High levels of prenatal exposure in humans result in neurobehavioral effects such as cerebral palsy and severe mental retardation. Prenatal exposure to MeHg in communities with chronic low-level exposure is related to decreased birthweight and early sensorimotor dysfunction such as delayed onset of walking. Neurobehavioral alterations have also been documented in studies with nonhuman primates and rodents. Available information on the developmental neurotoxic effects of MeHg, particularly the neurobehavioral effects, indicates that the fetus and infant are more sensitive to adverse effects of MeHg. It is therefore recommended that pregnant women and women of childbearing age be strongly advised to limit their exposure to potential sources of MeHg. Based on results from human and animal studies on the developmental neurotoxic effects of methylmercury, the accepted reference dose should be lowered to 0.025 to 0.06 MeHg microgram/kg/day. Continued research on the neurotoxic effects associated with low level developmental exposure is needed.

T1 - Observations on asthma.
AN - 21260815; 11701700
AB - A review of the present understanding of asthma leads to the following conclusions: an elevated IgE is the principal risk factor in the development of childhood asthma; secondary exposure to a wide range of environmental agents (including indoor bioallergens) accounts for the variations in prevalence; prevalence (defined by a positive answer to the question "Have you ever had doctor-diagnosed asthma?") ranges between 4 and 8% in children. Black children have a slightly higher prevalence than white children in the United States, and in both races boys have a higher prevalence than girls. A high prevalence is found in Puerto Rican children in the United States. Patterns of utilization of health care resources (hospital emergency departments, individual physicians, etc.) are dependent on economic circumstances. Low-income children have higher annual morbidity (days in hospital, days off school, etc.) than higher income children and are more dependent on hospital emergency departments for primary care. Relatively little is known about nonatopic asthma in adults, although virus infections and occupational exposures play some part in its induction. There are some striking examples of asthma attack periodicity, and much may be learned from these. Hospital admissions for asthma have increased in many regions over the past 15 years; it is unlikely that this represents the increased admission of milder cases and hence would indicate that asthma has become more severe. This is likely to be a more sensitive indicator of change than mortality. Associations between indices of health effects and air pollutants indicate that these are probably playing a role in the worsening of asthma. Adverse effects related to SO2 and NO2 exposures have been documented, and fine particulate pollution (PM10) is also associated with worsening of asthma. Ozone is an intense respiratory irritant, and, together with acid aerosols, may well be playing a role in the worsening of asthma. It is not known whether any of these agents are affecting prevalence.

T1 - Application of biologic markers to studies of environmental risks in children and the developing fetus.
AN - 21260504; 11703606
AB - Young children and the developing fetus may be more susceptible to effects of environmental toxicants than adults due to differential exposure patterns and developmental immaturities. Biologic markers offer the potential of quantitative dosimeters of biologic dose and/or indices of biologic effect associated with fetal/childhood exposures. They can facilitate evaluation of interindividual variability in response and the magnitude of age-related susceptibilities. Thus far, biologic markers have not been widely used in developmental epidemiology of environmental exposures. Research by our group and others has seen elevations in biologic markers in samples from children and fetal tissue associated with a spectrum of environmental exposures, including tobacco smoke (active and passive), ambient pollution, and dietary contaminants. Studies also suggest that biologic markers can provide powerful dosimeters for investigating reproductive effects. Validation of biologic markers offering the greatest promise for developmental epidemiology is needed.

T1 - Pesticides--how research has succeeded and failed to translate science into policy: endocrinological effects on wildlife.
AN - 21258992; 11703605
AB - Toxicological research became institutionalized in the United States in response to society's concern about cancer and acute mortality. Driven by risk assessment, research focused on the need for data development and the standardization of testing for regulatory and management purposes in a reactive mode. Although the research community has provided evidence for over 40 years that a number of pesticides and industrial chemicals have disruptive effects on the endocrine system, little attention was given to the evidence when determining the health hazards of synthetic chemicals because of the fixation on cancer. However, recent findings concerning the effects of a number of widespread chemicals on the reproductive success and fertility of wildlife and humans has led to the call for a proactive approach using investigative research (forensic science). Suggestions are presented to modernize the research agenda of public health institutions to meet society's needs to address the problems of exposure to endocrine, nervous, and immune system disruptors.

T1 - Air toxics and asthma: impacts and end points.
AN - 21249703; 11704923
AB - The National Urban Air Toxics Research Center (NUATRC) hosted a medical/scientific workshop focused on possible asthma/air toxics relationships, with the results of the NUATRC's first research contract with the University of Cincinnati as the point of discussion. The workshop was held at the Texas Medical Center on 4 February 1994 and featured presentations by distinguished academic, government, and industry scientists. This one-day session explored the impact of various environmental factors, including air toxics, on asthma incidence and exacerbation; an emphasis was placed on future research directions to be pursued in the asthma/air toxics area. A key research presentation on the association of air toxics and asthma, based on the study sponsored by NUATRC, was given by Dr. George Leikauf of the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. Additional presentations were made by H. A. Boushey, Jr., Cardiovascular Research Institute/University of California at San Francisco, who spoke on of the Basic Mechanisms of Asthma; K. Sexton, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, who spoke on hazardous air pollutants: science/policy interface; and D. V. Bates, Department of Health Care and Epidemiology at the University of British Columbia, who spoke on asthma epidemiology. H. Koren, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and M. Yeung, of the Respiratory Division/University of British Columbia, Vancouver General Hospital, discussed occupational health impacts on asthma. Doyle Pendleton, Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission, reviewed air quality measurements in Texas. The information presented at the workshop suggested a possible association of asthma exacerbations with ozone and particulate matter (PM10); however, direct relationships between worsening asthma and air toxic ambient levels were not established. Possible respiratory health effects associated with air toxics will require considerably more investigation, especially in the area of human exposure assessment. Two major recommendations for future research resulted from this workshop and an accompanying NUATRC Scientific Advisory Panel meeting: a need for more complete individual personal exposure assessments so that accurate determinations of actual personal exposures to various pollutants can be made; and a need for field experiments utilizing biomarkers of exposure and effect to more accurately assess the extent and variability of the biological effects, if any, of individual air toxics.

T1 - Biological Monitoring of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Exposure in a Highly Polluted Area of Poland
AN - 14391436; 10507825
AB - Silesia, Poland experiences high levels of air pollution from coke ovens and coal mines. Exposure to PAHs was monitored in coke oven workers, subjects residing in Silesia but not involved in the coal industry, and subjects in a nonindustrialized area of Poland using personal samplers to make a single measurement in September and February. The same individuals submitted urine samples for determination of 1-hydroxypyrene. September mean PAH levels were lower than February levels, and ranged from 2.3 to 12.3 mu g/m super(3). Environmentally exposed subjects had mean PAH levels of 0.15 and 0.44 mu g/m super(3) in September and February, respectively. Urinary 1-hydroxypyrene mean concentrations ranged from 2.45 to 13.48, 0.41 to1.54, and 0.20 to 0.14 mu mol/mol creatinine for occupationally exposed, environmentally exposed, and control subjects, respectively. Seasonal variations were noted for both groups with PAH exposure.

T1 - Strategic Elements for Environmental Justice
AN - 14390857; 10507820
AB - An executive order was issued by President Clinton in February 1994 requiring federal agencies to examine and, if necessary, revamp policies to achieve environmental justice, so that environmental adverse effects are not borne disproportionately by minorities and the poor. An outline of the Department of Health and Human Services plan to comply with the executive order is presented. The six part plan includes objectives and strategies for public participation, education and training; identification of health problems; provisions for adequate medical testing and care; data collection and appropriate surveillance; research; and interagency coordination. Implementation of the plan in the Mississippi Delta Project is described.

T1 - Electric and Magnetic Field Exposures for People Living near a 735-Kilovolt Power Line
AN - 14378241; 10507824
AB - Exposure to electric and magnetic fields was monitored in 18 adults living between 190 and 240 feet of a 735-kV transmission line, and in 17 adult controls living in similar homes distant transmission lines. Exposed subjects were exposed to magnetic fields 4.4 times higher than exposure levels of controls, and a positive correlation with line loading was demonstrated. Exposed subjects also spent a significantly greater percentage of time at magnetic fields above 20 V/m, but exposures to magnetic fields greater than 78 V/m were similar for exposed and control groups. Subjects living near the transmission line were exposed to electric fields of 26.3 V/m compared to the 14.0 V/m exposure of controls.

T1 - Comparisons of Estimated Human Body Burdens of Dioxinlike Chemicals and TCDD Body Burdens in Experimentally Exposed Animals
AN - 14377734; 10507823
AB - Body burdens of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and similar compounds including PCBs, other dibenzodioxins, and dibenzofurans were determined as TCDD equivalents (TEQs) and compared with body burdens induced in experimental animals using known doses of TCDD. Cancer induction occurs in the range of 944 to 137,000 ng/kg body weight in animals. Body burdens ranging between 10 and 12,500 ng/kg can induce noncancerous adverse effects in animals. In humans, 13 ng TEQ/kg body weight is found for non exposed populations. Exposure to dioxin-like compounds has resulted in human body burdens between 96 and 7000 ng TEQ/kg body weight. Humans and animals develop chloracne and CYP1A1 induction when body burdens are similar. Human development of cancer and noncancerous adverse effects seems to occur at levels within ten or one hundred times the background level found in nonexposed populations.

T1 - Staffing Data in the Public Library Statistics Program: Definitions, Internal Consistency, and Comparisons to Secondary Sources. Technical Report.
AN - 62669208; ED391820
AB - This is the fourth in a series of reports evaluating the Public Library Statistics (PLS) program, an annual census of public libraries in the United States. The census includes, in addition to a full count of public libraries and their outlets, a variety of statistics about the services provided by and, the financial condition and the staffing levels of public libraries. This report contains the results of an evaluation of the definitions and internal consistency of the staffing variables and a comparison of the statistics collected for these variables to selected statistics from independent sources. This evaluation was conducted to raise specific issues for discussion among members of the Federal State Cooperative System for Public Library Data. Chapter 1 evaluates the definitions used for the staff variables, while Chapter 2 considers the internal consistency of staff measures. Chapter 3 compares statistics from the public library census to those from other reference sources for public library staffing information. Four appendixes list the variables, libraries without paid staff, and library reports and directories, and present comparisons of dataset and other figures. (Contains 70 references and 14 tables.)

T1 - Services and Resources for Children and Young Adults in Public Libraries. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62655316; ED386218
AB - the findings are presented of 1994 surveys on services and resources for children and young adults (ages 12-18) in public libraries. Each survey was conducted with a different nationally representative sample of public libraries. Data was collected for individual buildings rather than for library systems. Findings indicate the following: (1) children and young adults represent 60% of public library patronage; (2) 30% of public librarians specialize in youth services; (3) 39% of libraries employ a children's librarian, 11% have a young adult librarian, and 24% have a youth services specialist on staff; (4) 30% of all public libraries have only one librarian on staff; (5) ethnic diversity of children and young adult patrons has increased over 40% in the last 5 years; (6) computer technologies are among the most heavily used children's and young adult resources in public libraries and are also the most scarce; (7) many library programs primarily target preschool and kindergarten children; (8) only 76% of public libraries report working with schools; (9) only one in seven libraries offer homework assistance programs; (10) 11% of public libraries have neither a young adult collection or section; and (11) insufficient library staff is a leading barrier to increasing services and resources for children and young adults. Survey data is provided in 21 tables and 14 figures. Appendices present survey methodology and data reliability, a list of tables with standard errors, and survey forms. (AEF)

T1 - Abuses in Federal Student Grant Programs: Proprietary School Abuses. Hearing before the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations of the Committee on Governmental Affairs. United States Senate, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session.
AN - 62557940; ED399904
AB - The purpose of this hearing was to probe a pattern of fraud and abuse in the Pell Grant Program for postsecondary students, focusing specifically on the IADE American Schools, a for-profit vocational school with campuses in the Los Angeles (California) area and serving primarily Hispanic students. In his opening remarks Senator Roth detailed a history of prior abuses of the program and lax oversight by the Department of Education. Senator Nunn, after summarizing a five-year series of hearings, reports, and recommendations, testified that a year-long investigation of the IADE schools had uncovered serious misconduct, abuses, and possibly fraudulent practices. He charged that the Department was not only incapable of preventing a fraudulent institution from participating in student aid programs but was also unable to detect or pursue such fraudulent activities. Following the senators' opening statements, the Subcommittee team investigating IADE schools reported its findings. David Longanecker, Assistant Secretary for Postsecondary Education, then reviewed the Department's procedures and policies, stating that oversight was being improved. The final testimony was a report from the U.S. General Accounting Office assessing the Department's effectiveness in using student aid data to ensure compliance and prevent abuses. An appendix contains the texts of the witnesses' prepared statements. 56 exhibit statements are listed separately. (CH)

AB - The Public Libraries Survey (PLS) is conducted annually by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) through the Federal-State Cooperative System for Public Library Data (FSCS). The 1993 fiscal year survey file includes 8,929 public libraries in the 50 states and the District of Columbia identified by state library agencies. A total of 44 data items were collected for each library--33 basic data items and 11 identification items. (The basic data items for multiple-outlet libraries are provided to NCES as aggregated data.) Included are the library's name, address, number of service outlets, number of full-time equivalent paid staff, operating income and expenditures, capital outlay, and total library materials by collection type. Also included are total annual public service hours, library visits, reference transactions, circulation transactions, interlibrary loans, circulation of children's materials, and children's program attendance. The survey also collected 12 data items on each public library outlet and state library agency outlet; 11 identifying items on state library agencies, federations, systems, and cooperatives; and four data items on characteristics of the state data submission.

T1 - Profile of Part-Time Undergraduates in Postsecondary Education: 1989-1990. Postsecondary Education Descriptive Analysis Reports. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62662458; ED386117
AB - This report uses data from the 1989-90 National Postsecondary Student Aid Study (NPSAS:90) to describe the population of part-time undergraduates who were enrolled in postsecondary education in the United States during the 1989-90 academic year. It examined: (1) how enrollment status varied with a range of student and attendance characteristics; (2) differences in the composition of the part-time and full-time student population; (3) the grades earned by part-time undergraduates and the length of time they were enrolled in 1989-90; and (4) tuition costs and receipt of financial aid among part-time undergraduates. The report found that from 1970 to 1990, the number of part-time undergraduates more than doubled while full-time enrollment increased by one-third. It also found that half of all undergraduates in postsecondary education in 1989-90 were enrolled full time throughout their enrollment during the year; 36 percent were enrolled exclusively part time; and the remaining 14 percent changed their enrollment status during the year. Other significant findings are presented. Two appendixes contain a glossary and a description of the NPSAS's methodology and statistical procedures. (MDM)

AN - 62660877; ED387534
AB - This report on the Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS) of the National Center for Education Statistics presents survey estimates for data on public and private schools, school principals, and teachers. Data reported for schools include particular programs or services offered, number of schools with students receiving Chapter 1 services or free or reduced-price lunch, and graduation and college application rates. Data reported for principals include educational level, experience, and salary. Similar data are reported for teachers, along with data on the number and percentage of continuing and newly hired full-time equivalent teachers. The approximately 81,000 public schools and 26,000 private schools in the survey account for about 76% and 24% respectively of the almost 107,000 schools in the United States in 1993-94. About 41.6 million children, about 89%, were enrolled in the public schools, and about 5 million were in private schools. Ten sections of Technical Notes present information about survey methodology. Twenty-six tables in the text and 26 standard error tables in Appendix A present survey findings. (SLD)

T1 - Teacher Supply, Teacher Qualifications, and Teacher Turnover: 1990-91. Schools and Staffing Survey.
AN - 62660871; ED388709
AB - This report deals with the supply of and demand for elementary and secondary school teachers in the United States, using data from the Schools and Staffing Survey of the National Center for Education Statistics. There is considerable concern over whether the United States will experience shortages of teachers in the coming years as student enrollments rise and demand for teachers increases. In 1990-91, the year of the survey, there were multiple and diverse sources of new teachers, including re-entrants into teaching. Over half of all secondary school teachers had master's degrees, but many taught in areas other than the one in which they had trained, with out-of-field teaching especially common in private schools. This analysis focuses on the levels of training teachers had in the subjects they taught, based on the premise that adequate staffing requires teachers at the high school level to hold at least a college minor in the fields they teach. Most of the newly hired were teachers who had moved or transferred from other schools. Between 1990-91 and 1991-92, there was an overall teacher turnover rate of 13%. Fifty-five percent of those who left, left teaching altogether. Ten tables and six figures in the text display survey findings. An appendix contains standard errors for six of the text tables. (Contains 75 references.) (SLD)

T1 - Improving the Capacity of the National Education Data System To Address Equity Issues: An Addendum to "A Guide to Improving the National Education Data System."
AN - 62656179; ED388708
AB - "A Guide to Improving the National Education Data System" (1990) makes 36 recommendations for improving data collection in the areas of student/background characteristics, education resources, school processes, and student outcomes. This paper uses the framework of the "Guide" to review issues raised in "Education Counts," a recent examination of the nation's capacity to measure and monitor educational change, focusing specifically on data needed to address issues of educational equity with respect to student populations. The first section discusses current equity and at-risk policy issues and the data needed to address them. The second section looks more closely at the data currently available to address these items. The third section examines limitations in current data collections for addressing equity issues, and a fourth section provides specific recommendations for ways to improve the national data system to address equity issues. Recommendations center on the creation of student-based record systems, the linkage of elementary and secondary systems, the development of new measures and indicators, and the reporting of data according to student characteristics. (Contains 10 figures, 2 appendixes, and 60 references.) (SLD)

AN - 50881715; 2001-069627
AB - Ruby and sapphire have been reported from a number of different areas in China. The most important of these are the sapphire occurrences of Shandong, Fujian and Hainan in E China; in each of these localities, sapphires occur in alkali basalts as dark inky-blue material similar to that mined in Australia. At Penglai, on Hainan Island, the sapphires are recovered at a depth of 2-3 m, with pyrope, spinel, pyroxene, olivine and zircon; their average size is 2-5 mm, the largest reported being 35.5 ct. Some ruby and other sapphire localities are also mentioned.

T1 - Do Waste Incinerators Induce Adverse Respiratory Effects? An Air Quality and Epidemiological Study of Six Communities
AN - 14390326; 10505549
AB - Air quality and respiratory function and symptoms were measured longitudinally and directly in populations living in the neighborhoods of incinerators in North Carolina, and the contribution of incinerator emissions to the particulate air mass in these neighborhoods was estimated. Three types of incinerators were studied: a biomedical incinerator, a municipal incinerator, and a liquid hazardous-waste-burning industrial furnace. A one-time baseline telephone survey was performed to characterize social, demographic, and respiratory risk factors, and a subsample was selected for longitudinal daily evaluation of exposures, respiratory function, and symptoms for one month during three successive years. In matched-comparisons with uncontaminated neighborhoods, no differences in concentrations of particulate matter were observed. Direct measurements of air quality and estimates based on a chemical mass-balance receptor model showed that incinerator emissions did not have a major or even a modest impact on routinely monitored air pollutants. No differences were found in the prevalence of chronic or acute respiratory symptoms between compared communities.

T1 - Using Three-Dimensional Quantitative StructureActivity Relationships to Examine Estrogen Receptor Binding Affinities of Polychlorinated Hydroxybiphenyls
AN - 14390248; 10505547
AB - Modified mixtures of PCBs, which are lower in overall chlorine content yet rich in ortho-chlorinated biphenyls, have been proposed as alternatives to the highly chlorinated PCB mixtures. However, the lower Cl content favors increased metabolism in biological systems. Comparative molecular field analysis involving a three-dimensional quantitative structureactivity relationship paradigm, was used to examine the unique physicochemical properties of polychlorinated hydroxybiphenyls underlying their estrogen receptor binding affinities and their potential estradiol equivalency. Results indicated that the ortho-substituted PCB 52 acts as an estrogenic compound, which may be manifest through a putative hydroxylated metabolite binding competitively to the estrogen receptor. Noncoplanarity may increase the steroid-like structural nature of the PCBs, contributing to the overall hydrophobic bulk structure.

T1 - Assessment of Dietary Exposure to Trace Metals in Baffin Inuit Food
AN - 14387383; 10505552
AB - Levels of cadmium, lead, and mercury were determined in traditional food items collected from Qikiqtarjuaq on eastern Baffin Island, NWT, Canada. Daily metal-intake levels were calculated by multiplying the amount of food item consumed during the day of interview by the average metal concentration of the food item examined. Cadmium, Hg, and Pb were detected in 89 out of 90 food samples measured, which included ringed seal, bearded seal, narwhal, beluga, walrus, polar bear, caribou, Arctic char, sculpin, mussels, kelp, blackberries, and greens. The metal levels in many types of traditional food were higher than in corresponding market food. The average daily intake levels of total Hg for both adults and children were higher than the Canadian average value, and the average weekly intake of Hg for all age groups exceeded the intake guidelines established by the FAO/WHO. The foods contributing most to metal uptake were ringed seal meat, caribou meat, and kelp. All metal concentration data are tabulated.

T1 - Metabolism of Meso-2,3-Dimercaptosuccinic Acid in Lead-Poisoned Children and Normal Adults
AN - 14383162; 10505551
AB - Meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) is an orally active chelating agent for the treatment of childhood lead poisoning. Studies were conducted in children and adults to assess DMSA metabolism. Pharmacokinetics were studied in children, and the influence of cholestyramine and neomycin were studied in adults. The cyclical pattern of excretion of unaltered DMSA in urine observed in children was typical for drugs excreted in bile and undergoing enterohepatic circulation. These data, combined with data suggesting postprandial reentry peaks of DMSA in plasma, indicated that one or more metabolites of DMSA undergoes enterohapatic circulation. The administration of cholestyramine or neomycin prevented increases in plasma DMSA after meals.

T1 - A Pharmacokinetic Model of Inhaled Methanol in Humans and Comparison to Methanol Disposition in Mice and Rats
AN - 14382953; 10505550
AB - An inhalation toxicokinetic model developed for methanol exposure in rodents was applied to humans, based on blood methanol data extracted from the literature. The fraction of inhaled methanol absorbed into the systemic circulation was estimated. Modeling at low- and mid-doses of methanol vapor in humans indicated that there was little, if any, difference in methanol disposition during and after methanol inhalation as compared to that after intravenous or oral administration. The model accurately predicted the decline in methanol blood concentration following removal of monkeys or humans from the methanol-exposure environment. The one-compartment methanol-inhalation model with MichaelisMenten elimination accurately predicted blood methanol concentrations after low and moderate doses of methanol vapor up to 1000 ppm. The absorption factor for exercising subjects was lower than for resting subjects. Results indicated that, following an 8-h exposure to 5000 ppm of methanol vapor, blood methanol concentrations in the mouse would be 1318-fold higher than in humans exposed to the same methanol vapor concentration.

T1 - Xenoestrogens Alter Mammary Gland Differentiation and Cell Proliferation in the Rat
AN - 14382914; 10505548
AB - Mammary gland differentiation and cell proliferation were examined in rats after acute exposure to the xenoestrogens diethylstilbestrol, genistein, o,p'-DDT, Aroclor 1221, Aroclor 1254, and TCDD. Results indicated that diethylstilbestrol, genistein, and o,p'-DDT increased mammary cell proliferation and enhanced gland differentiation. TCDD inhibited cell proliferation and gland development, while Aroclor 1221 and 1254 had a slight but not significant effect on mammary gland development. It was proposed that genistein and o,p'-DDT, like diethylstilbestrol, act via estrogen receptor-mediated mechanisms to promote mammary epithelial cell proliferation and enhance mammary gland maturation.

T1 - Promotion of Hepatic Preneoplastic Lesions in Male B6C3F sub(1) Mice by Unleaded Gasoline
AN - 14382880; 10505546
AB - The possible tumor-promoting activity of unleaded gasoline in male mice was tested using the same initiationpromotion model in which liver tumor promotion by unleaded gasoline was demonstrated in female mice. The cellular basis of such promoting activity was examined by analysis of hepatocellular proliferation in altered hepatic foci and surrounding non-lesioned liver. The experimental protocol is described. Results indicated that unleaded gasoline exposure increased the size of altered hepatic foci as well as the number of macroscopic neoplasms in N-nitrosodiethylamine (DEN)-initiated male mice. Because unleaded gasoline did not also increase the number of altered hepatic foci in DEN-initiated mice, the increased number of macroscopic neoplasms was likely a reflection of the stimulation of growth of altered hepatic foci by unleaded gasoline. The liver-tumor-promoting activity of unleaded gasoline in this study appeared to be at odds with the lack of carcinogenic activity in male mice in the cancer bioassay of unleaded gasoline. The possible reasons for this discrepancy are discussed.

T1 - Protracted Neurotoxicity from Chlordane Sprayed to Kill Termites
AN - 14381957; 10505545
AB - In 1987, adults and children living in a wooden apartment complex in Houston, TX, were exposed to chlordane sprayed to control termites. In 1994, 216 adult occupants or former residents were examined using a pretested neurobehavioral battery and questionnaires. The cross-sectional study is described. Compared to reference subjects, the exposed individuals exhibited significant impairment of both the neurophysiological and psychological functions including mood states. The most notable changes were slowing of reaction time, balance dysfunction, reductions in cognitive function, perceptual motor speed, and immediate and delayed verbal recall. It is thought that the cyclodiene interacts with the picrotoxin receptor in the nervous system, releasing excitatory transmitters and interfering with the gamma -aminobutyric acid neurotransmission system.

T1 - Privatization of Sallie Mae and Connie Lee. Hearing on Examining Proposed Legislation To Allow for an Orderly Transition of the Student Loan Marketing Association (Sallie Mae) to Private Status...and a Proposal to Privatize the College Construction Loan Insurance Association (Connie Lee) before the Subcommittee on Education, Arts and Humanities of the Committee on Labor and Human Resources. United States Senate, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session.
AN - 62647576; ED386131
AB - The Subcommittee heard testimony from seven witnesses and statements from three senators on whether or not it is in the Federal Government's best interest to divest itself of the Student Loan Marketing Association (Sallie Mae), and the College Construction Loan Insurance Association (Connie Lee). Lawrence A. Hough of the Student Loan Marketing Association testified that Sallie Mae is poised to move away from government sponsorship, that it would remain committed to the Federal Family Education Loan Program, and that privatization plans must be designed carefully to assure approval by shareholders. Oliver R. Stockwell of Connie Lee testified that Connie Lee was ready and willing to convert to private status. Senator Dodd appeared and spoke in support of privatization. Leo Kornfeld of the Department of Education testified in support of privatizing Connie Lee and cautioned that the current marketplace needs, offset fees, and exit fees must be considered in any Sallie Mae privatization plan. Darcy Bradbury of the Department of the Treasury argued for privatization to reduce the debt that carries some perception of government support. Senator Claiborne Pell urged caution in privatization. A member of the Congressional Research Service, a representative of the Financial Guaranty Insurers, and a representative of First Boston Corporation also testified on privatization issues. Prepared statements of senators and witnesses are included. (JB)

T1 - Hearing on Accreditation of Graduate Medical Education. Hearing before the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations of the Committee on Economic and Educational Opportunities. House of Representatives, 104th Congress, First Session.
AN - 62645302; ED388152
AB - The Subcommittee met to examine recent new standards of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) that require training programs in obstetrics and gynecology to perform and teach abortion techniques, as well as the impact of these standards on program accreditation, and the programs' and students' consequent eligibility for federal assistance. A physician representative of the Christian Medical-Dental Society testified against the ACGME standard arguing that physician conscience, individual choice, and medical discernment were ignored. Robert D'Alessandri of ACGME described how the new standard was developed and announced recent modifications that permit programs to omit this training, but prohibit them from impeding students who wish to obtain abortion training at other institutions. Edward M. Hannigan of the University of Texas at Galveston testified that the new standards were enacted to advance a political agenda. A representative of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists argued that training in induced abortion is necessary for physician preparation. Anthony Levatino of the Albany Medical Center argued that the new standards were established in response to a false perception that there is a shortage of doctors trained to do abortions. Paula Smith of the American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists testified against the new standard. A discussion that followed covered political influences, medical training, doctor attitudes, and government role. (JB)

T1 - National Postsecondary Student Aid Study: Estimates of Student Financial Aid 1992-93. E.D. TABS.
AN - 62749762; ED384292
AB - This publication presents statistics that estimate higher education student financial aid for 1992-93 in 12 tables using data from the National Postsecondary Student Aid Study (NPSAS). NPSAS is a comprehensive study that is examining how students and their families pay for postsecondary education. It includes nationally representative samples of undergraduates, graduates, and first-professional students, students attending less-than-two-year, two-year, four-year, and doctoral granting institutions. Tables include information that shows aid for undergraduates by source and student characteristic, by type of aid, average amounts of federal and non-federal aid, graduate and professional students receiving aid and the average amounts of aid they receive. Highlights of the report include: (1) about 40 percent of undergraduates (about 7.7 million) received financial aid from some source; (2) about 1 out of every 3 undergraduates received some type of federal aid and about 2 out of every 10 received federal grants; (3) among the 2.2 million aided undergraduates enrolled at public two-year institutions, the average amount of aid received was about $2,200; (4) among graduate and first-professional students about 4 of every 10 received some financial aid from any source averaging $8,500; and (5) about 75 percent of first-professional program students received aid averaging over $14,500. Appendixes contain 11 tables, including eight standard error tables, and description of variables used in this tabulation. (JB)

T1 - Internet Costs and Cost Models for Public Libraries. Final Report.
AN - 62747310; ED384354
AB - This report is the result of the statutory mandate by the National Commission on Libraries and Information Science (NCLIS) to promote activities to extend the nation's library and information handling capability as essential links in the emerging global information infrastructure. In a study to inventory the challenges related to libraries' roles in the National Information Infrastructure (NII), it was discovered that libraries had difficulty identifying and describing specific Internet costs. The cost elements, models, and worksheets presented here are intended to serve as useful guides for public libraries and communities in planning Internet connections and services. Five representative connectivity models and seven broad cost categories are identified for use by public libraries planning Internet connectivity and services. The value of this study rests more with the development of cost models, worksheets, and cost categories than with the costs represented in this report. However, the representative costs illustrate the significant variations that are possible in planning the networking permutations and configuration available to the public library community. For example, an initial one-time cost of $1,475 and a recurring annual cost of $12,635, a public library can establish a minimal level of single-workstation, text-based Internet connection. A more sophisticated representative multimedia connectivity model is described involving multiple workstations at multiple locations for a one-time cost of $266,375 and a recurring annual cost of $154,220, indicating the wide variation in cost and connectivity possibilities. The findings are intended to provide a basis for extending the benefits of advanced information services to the nation through its 9,050 public libraries. Models are illustrated through 14 figures. Two appendices provide research methodology and glossary of Internet terms. (Contains 14 references.) (Author/MAS)

T1 - The Condition of Education, 1995.
AN - 62733430; ED383119
AB - The current status of education for 1994 is presented in the form of education "indicators"--key data that measure the health of education, monitor important developments, and show trends in major aspects of education. The 60 indicators have been divided into 6 areas: (1) access, participation, and progress; (2) achievement, attainment, and curriculum; (3) economic and other outcomes of education; (4) size, growth, and output of educational institutions; (5) climate, classrooms, and diversity in educational institutions; and (6) human and financial resources of educational institutions. The report includes the text, tables, and charts for each indicator plus the technical supporting data, supplemental information, and data sources. Information on issues in elementary and secondary education are integrated with those on issues in postsecondary education to reflect the continuity of educational experiences. An overview synthesizes evidence from both the 60 indicators and other sources on 4 important education issues: access to preschool education; trends in the achievement and attainment of Hispanic students relative to whites; progress in the achievement and attainment of women; and the cost of higher education. Appendices contain 212 supplemental tables and notes, a list of data sources, a glossary, an index, and a list of National Center for Education publications. (LMI)

T1 - Reconsidering Children's Early Development and Learning: Toward Common Views and Vocabulary. 95-03.
AN - 62641498; ED391576
AB - In 1990, the National Education Goals were established by the President and the 50 state governors. Great attention has been given to Goal 1, dubbed the "readiness" goal: By the year 2000, all children in America will start school ready to learn. The Goal 1 Resource Technical Planning Groups were asked to suggest ways in which Goal 1 could be measured. The purpose of this document is to further amplify the dimensions of early learning and development used by the National Educational Goals Panel to measure progress toward Goal 1. The following five dimensions are discussed: (1) "Physical Well-Being and Motor Development"; (2) "Social and Emotional Development," serving as the foundation for relationships which give meaning to school experience; (3) "Approaches toward Learning," referring to the inclinations, dispositions, or styles that reflect ways children become involved with learning; (4) "Language Development"; and (5) "Cognition and General Knowledge." For each of the dimensions, a rationale; general definition; the relationship to individual, cultural, and contextual variation; and a summary are given. The report concludes with a discussion of underlying issues, implications, and action steps. (Contains 83 references.) (BGC)

T1 - Trends among High School Seniors, 1972-1992. National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62641213; ED387533
AB - This report presents data from three longitudinal studies conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics. The National Longitudinal Study of the Class of 1972, the High School and Beyond study, and the National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988 (NELS:88) were all designed to assess the educational experiences and achievements of high school students. With each study cohort, the scope of the study was enlarged until the three studies came to provide a rich resource for examining changes in U.S. education in the past 20 years. Enrollment in academic programs had declined from 1972 to 1980, falling from 46 percent to 39 percent, but by 1992, it had returned to its 1972 level, and 48% of seniors were in academic programs. The percentage of seniors in vocational programs has declined from 22% in 1972 to 12% in 1992. The rebound in academic program enrollment is caused primarily by higher enrollment rates among females and minorities. Differences in achievement among racial and ethnic groups are decreasing, but social class distinctions are becoming more marked. In 1992, more students planned to go to college than in 1972, and heightened expectations for graduate degrees became apparent for all racial and ethnic groups. Five appendixes provide 44 supplementary tables and an illustrative figure, information about study methodology, and a list of publications using NELS:88 data. (Contains 21 tables, 9 figures.) (SLD)

T1 - Strategies for Keeping Kids in School: Evaluation of Dropout Prevention and Reentry Projects in Vocational Education. Final Report.
AN - 62637646; ED385767
AB - An evaluation was conducted of a 3-year demonstration program the purpose of which was to demonstrate the efficacy of projects that included vocational education as a key component in encouraging at-risk youth to remain in or return to school. Six of the 10 project grantees, funded under the Cooperative Demonstration Program of the Carl D. Perkins Vocational Education Act, were evaluated, using process and outcome information from 12 localities. The study found that only one-third of the projects achieved significant reduction in the number of participants who dropped out of school. Projects were generally more successful, however, in improving participants' school performance and affiliation, with 10 of the 12 demonstrating increases in participants' grade point average, 7 showing reduction in number of courses failed, and 7 showing improvements in participants' perceptions of the safety of their school environment. Among the components that appeared to be critical for improving the persistence and educational success of at-risk youth are the following: (1) a smaller, more personal environment, such as that available in the school-within-a-school and alternative school environments; (2) a structured environment that includes clear and equitably enforced behavioral expectations; (3) vocational education that integrates academic education and leads to good entry-level jobs or continued training at the postsecondary level; (4) formal, ongoing coordination of the academic and vocational components of participants' high school programs; (5) a formal counseling component that incorporates attention to personal issues along with career counseling, employability and life skills instruction; and (6) personal, supportive attention from adults through mentoring or similar projects. (The report includes separate evaluations of each site, 13 tables, and 3 appendixes that report on the study methodology.) (KC)

T1 - A Profile of the American High School Senior in 1992. National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62627348; ED386502
AB - The National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988 (NELS:88) provides information about factors that influence student academic performance and social development. This report describes the experiences of spring 1992 seniors, focusing on their school environments, course-taking and tested achievement, postsecondary plans and occupational goals, and outside-of-school experiences. The typical senior was enrolled in a college preparatory program. Nine of 10 seniors demonstrated basic proficiency in reading and mathematics, but somewhat fewer demonstrated basic proficiency in science. Three-quarters of all seniors planned on continuing their educations beyond high school, and over half expected to hold a professional occupation. Over a quarter of all seniors were from racial and ethnic minority groups. Students generally reported that the quality of education in their schools was good, that their teachers were interested in their students, and that grading was fair. About half of all students worked in addition to going to school. Students participated in a variety of extracurricular activities, but reported a great deal of television viewing. Thirty-three tables and 18 figures present survey data. Eight appendixes contain supplemental information, including 13 tables of standard errors and sample sizes. Appendix H contains abstracts of analytical documents related to the survey. (SLD)

T1 - Health-Risk Behaviors among Our Nation's Youth: United States, 1992. Vital and Health Statistics. Series 10: Data from the National Health Interview Survey. No. 192.
AN - 62552193; ED401233
AB - The 1992 National Health Interview Survey-Youth Risk Behavior Survey (NHIS-YRBS) studied 13,789 youth 12-21 years of age. This report presents the data according to sex, age, Hispanic origin, and race for youth of non-Hispanic origin. The 10 data tables cover: cigarette and other tobacco use, alcohol and other drug use, sexual experience, HIV/AIDS education, runaway and homeless experiences, violence, unintentional injury control, weight control, and participation in physical activities. Analysis of the data revealed that a substantial number of U.S. youth are engaging in risk-taking behaviors that can lead to chronic disease, injury, and death. A significant proportion had smoked cigarettes (59.9 percent), drunk alcohol (67.7 percent), and used illegal drugs (31 percent). Over 60 percent of all never-married youth 14-21 years of age had engaged in sexual intercourse at least once in their lifetime; 43.9 percent had had more than one sex partner. Nearly one-half of males (48.1 percent) and 29.4 percent of females had been in a physical fight in the previous year, and nearly 1 in 4 male youth (23.8 percent) had carried a weapon in the previous month. The survey data suggest opportunities to enhance the health of youth through early intervention on the part of parents, schools, and communities. Appendices include technical notes on the survey methodology and definition of terms used in the report. (Contains 51 references.) (ND)

T1 - Biochemistry and genetics of PCB metabolism.
AN - 21264398; 11703603
AB - Biphenyl(BP)-utilizing bacteria, which include both Gram-negative and Gram-positive strains, are ubiquitously distributed in the environment. These bacteria co-metabolically degrade a variety of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners to the corresponding chlorobenzoic acids through 2,3-dioxygenation. Certain strains degrade even highly chlorinated PCBs through 3,4-dioxygenation. The ring meta-cleavage dioxygenase purified from Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes KF707 is a homo-octamer containing ferrous ions as the essential cofactor. Transposon mutants revealed that the bph-encoded enzymes possess a wide range of substrate specificity for various aromatic hydrocarbons. The bphABCXD gene cluster coding for the degradation of PCBs to chlorobenzoic acids was first cloned from P. pseudocaligenes KF707 and sequenced and then was cloned from a number of BP-utilizing strains and sequenced. Some strains possess a bph operon that is very similar, if not identical, to that of KF707. Some bph genes share homologies with different degrees. Deletion and shuffling of bph genes are also found.

T1 - Modeling organic chemical fate in aquatic systems: significance of bioaccumulation and relevant time-space scales.; Modeling organic chemical fate in aquatic systems: significance of bioaccumulation and relevant time-space scales.
AN - 21263061; 11701695
AB - The importance of aquatic food chain bioaccumulation of organic chemicals in contributing to human dose is derived. It is shown that for chemicals with log octanol water partition coefficients greater than about 3, the role of food chain transfer to fish consumed by humans becomes the more dominant route over drinking water. Modeling of aquatic food chain bioaccumulation then becomes necessary to accurately estimate dose of such chemicals to humans. The relevant time and space scales for groundwater and surface water also indicate a division of organic chemicals at a log octanol water partition coefficient of about 3. For chemicals greater than that level, groundwater transport is minimal, while for chemicals with log octanol water coefficients of less than about 3, detention times are long relative to surface water and biodegradation processes become more significant. An illustration is given of modeling the groundwater transport of two organic chemicals (BCEE and benzene) and a metal (chromium) at a Superfund site. The model indicates that after 10 years only a relatively small fraction of the chemicals had traveled in the groundwater about 300 m to the point of release from the site to surface water. On the other hand, steady state in the adjacent stream and lake is reached rapidly over a distance of 2000 m, illustrating the difference in spatial and temporal scales for the groundwater and surface water.

AN - 21262961; 11701691
AB - Our work has focused on the determination of physiological traits that may facilitate in situ degradation of xenobiotic compounds by indigenous microorganisms. For this our interests center on the following questions: What are the ambient conditions in a benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX)-contaminated aquifer? What is the behavior of indigenous bacteria under these conditions? What are the attributes of bacterial strains that are functional under hypoxic conditions? How do these strains compare with other BTEX-degrading strains?

T1 - Plasmid transfer for enhancing degradation capabilities.
AN - 21262946; 11701690
AB - The kinetics of plasmid conjugation for the TOL and RP4 plasmids depend strongly on the donor cells' specific growth rate and substrate concentration, both of which determine the cells' energy availability. Although transfer rates can be large when energy availability is high, normal biological processes have low energy availability. Therefore, we propose and evaluate preliminarily a simple scheme to create a small zone of high energy availability.

T1 - Reductive dehalogenation of bromoform in aqueous solution.
AN - 21259955; 11701692
AB - The hybrid semiconducter-macrocycle catalyst TiO2-cobalt phthalocyanine promotes the solar photolysis of aqueous bromoform under anaerobic conditions. The major decomposition products are dibromoethane and HBr. Bromomethane and methane were produced only after prolonged photolysis (30 hr). Acetone, derived from added 2-propanol, was the only observed oxidation product. Preliminary experiments showed that electrolytic reduction of aqueous carbon tetrachloride at a vitamin B12-modified silver electrode produced the expected lower homologues but with surprisingly high yields of methane.

T1 - Mathematical modeling of BTX: biotransformation and transport in the subsurface.
AN - 21258975; 11703600
AB - A two-dimensional compositional model is presented; this model describes the transport and biotransformation of organic contaminants in a variably saturated subsurface environment. Modeled processes included mass exchange between constituent phases (water, air, soil, and organisms), advective and dispersive fluxes in the water phase, diffusive flux in the air phase, and biotransformation and biomass production in the biophase. In this model, solute transfer across air/water and water/solid interfaces is modeled using equilibrium relationships. Rate-limited mass transfer between the water and biophases is described with a linear driving force expression. Microbial degradation and biomass net growth are modeled by Monod-type kinetics. Solute transport and microbial growth equations are solved using an iterative Galerkin finite element method with a variable time-weighting scheme. Coupled biophase mass balance equations for each component are solved with a Newton-Raphson iterative scheme. Model capabilities are illustrated with two-dimensional, cross-sectional simulations of natural bioattenuation. The influence of biotransformation processes on the transport and extent of a toluene plume is examined.

T1 - Biodegradation of sorbed chemicals in soil.
AN - 21252419; 11701689
AB - Rates of biodegradation of sorbed chemicals are usually lower in soil than in aqueous systems, in part because sorption reduces the availability of the chemical to microorganisms. Biodegradation, sorption, and diffusion occur simultaneously and are tightly coupled. In soil, the rate of biodegradation is a function of a chemical's diffusion coefficient, sorption partition coefficient, the distance it must diffuse from the site of sorption to microbial populations that can degrade it, and its biodegradation rate constant. A model (DSB model) was developed that describes biodegradation of chemicals limited in the availability by sorption and diffusion. Different kinetics expressions describe biodegradation depending on whether the reaction is controlled by mass transfer (diffusion and sorption) or the intrinsic biodegradation rate, and whether biodegradation begins during or after the majority of sorption has occurred. We tested the hypothesis that there is a direct relationship between how strongly a chemical is sorbed and the chemical's biodegradation rate. In six soils with different organic carbon contents, there was no relationship between the extent or rate of biodegradation and the sorption partition coefficient for phenanthrene. Aging of phenanthrene residues in soil led to a substantial reduction in the rate of biodegradation compared to biodegradation rates of recently added phenanthrene. Considerable research has focused on identification and development of techniques for enhancing in situ biodegradation of sorbed chemicals. Development of such techniques, especially those involving inoculation with microbial strains, should consider physical mass transfer limitations and potential decreases in bioavailability over time.

T1 - Mechanisms for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon degradation by ligninolytic fungi.
AN - 21251684; 11703604
AB - Ligninolytic fungi accomplish the partial degradation of numerous aromatic organopollutants. Their ability to degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is particularly interesting because eukaryotes were previously considered to be unable to cleave fused-ring aromatics. Recent results indicate that extracellular peroxidases of these fungi are responsible for the initial oxidation of PAHs. Fungal lignin peroxidases oxidize certain PAHs directly, whereas fungal manganese peroxidases co-oxidize them indirectly during enzyme-mediated lipid peroxidation.

T1 - Industrialization, energy efficiency and environmental protection in Asian industrializing countries: The role of technological change
AN - 15893836; 4039473
AB - Rapid industrialization in many Asian developing countries has caused an explosive growth in energy consumption and an unsustainable environmental pressure: local water and atmospheric pollution are compromising the results of economic growth with health and ecological destruction, whereas increasing emission of greenhouse gases contributes to the global climate change. The key question is how to orient this industrialization process toward a more energy efficient and environmentally sound direction in order to avoid the errors made by the present day developed countries during their industrialization period. Rapid uptake of technological innovation, fostered by a high turnover of the capital stock and a strong trade orientation, and advantages as latecomers in the industrialization process may help these countries to adopt the latest available technologies in the form of clean process innovations, thus "leap-frogging" some of the problems associated with industrialization and avoiding many of the more serious environmental impacts of old technologies. This paper focuses its analysis on the role of technological change in the greening of industrialization processes of Asian developing countries. After analyzing the technological causes of energy and environmental problems created by the rapid industrialization process in these Asian countries, the paper suggests that not only should the "end-of-the-pipe" cleaning technologies be widely promoted, but also the clean process innovations be encouraged, thus tackling the pollution problems in their roots.

T1 - Xenoestrogens Released from Lacquer Coatings in Food Cans
AN - 14382589; 10502986
AB - Estrogenic activity was shown in the food and liquid stored in cans with lacquer coating. A bioassay that monitors growth of a culture of human breast cancer cells was used to screen extracts of the foods, which included vegetables, milk, meat, beans, cheese, and infant formula. The hormonal activity of the extracts was traced to the presence of bisphenol A, which had leached from the coating.

T1 - A Variety of Environmentally Persistent Chemicals, Including Some Phthalate Plasticizers, Are Weakly Estrogenic
AN - 14381326; 10502981
AB - Of the 20 man made organic chemicals identified in sewage effluent, half were shown to have estrogenic activity. These compounds were capable of inhibiting binding of 17 beta -estradiol to the estrogen receptor of fish. Further studies with the compounds using in vitro mammalian screening techniques, demonstrated that butylbenzyl phthalate (BBP) and dibutylphthalate (DBP), which are phthalic acid esters used in plastics manufacture, and butylated hydroxyanisol (BHA), were weakly estrogenic. Neither of the phthalic acid esters showed antagonistic activity, so that when endogenous estrogen would be present, cumulative effects from exposure to the compounds would be expected. Followup in vivo studies were recommended for further investigation of these ubiquitous compounds.

T1 - Mortality Study of Workers in 1,3-Butadiene Productions Identified from a Chemical Workers Cohort
AN - 14381205; 10502984
AB - Thermoplastic resins and synthetic rubbers contain 1,3-butadiene, which is an animal carcinogen and a possible human carcinogen. Mortality studies on 364 occupationally exposed men were conducted. Workers were not exposed to high levels of benzene or ethylene oxide. The mortality rate of the sampled population was lower than that of the general population of the US. However, lymphosarcoma and reticulosarcoma rates were higher among those exposed to 1,3-butadiene. The results show that it is likely that 1,3-butadiene is a human carcinogen.

T1 - Fertility in Mice after Prenatal Exposure to Benzo[a]pyrene and Inorganic Lead
AN - 14381136; 10502982
AB - Female mice were exposed to lead in drinking water prior to pregnancy and/or benzo[a]pyrene BaP by incubation during pregnancy. Exposure to BaP, alone or with lead exposure, resulted in fertility reduction. The number of ovarian follicles was reduced in these animals. Exposure to lead alone did not affect fertility or numbers of ovarian follicles. Gestational time was increased in the mice exposed to both compounds. A nonsignificant decrease in litter numbers and size, and an numbers of offspring was noted for those exposed to both compounds. The two compounds exhibit possible synergistic adverse effects on fertility. Since human exposure to the two environmental contaminants is common, the synergistic effects of the combination should be considered.

T1 - What's Hiding Under the Sink: Dangers of Household Pesticides
AN - 14377342; 10502979
AB - Household pesticides are kept and used in the majority of US households, and these chemicals are involved in 93% of the 140,000 pesticide exposures that are reported annually to poison control centers. More than half the incidents involve children. A review of the most widely used classes of household pesticides, including their activity in humans and animals, and carcinogenicity ratings is presented. Pesticide classes discussed include carbamates, organophosphates, petroleum hydrocarbons, synergists, and pyrethrins. The toxicity of inert ingredients is also briefly discussed. To reduce exposure to pesticides, baits and traps can be used, and overtreatment can be avoided.

T1 - Hearing on Federal Student Loan Programs. Hearing before the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations of the Committee on Economic and Educational Opportunities. House of Representatives, 104th Congress, First Session.
AN - 62653787; ED388151
AB - The Subcommittee met to hear testimony on the college student loan process, particularly whether, at a time of devolution of power to state and local levels, it is contradictory to continue with the relatively new Federal Direct Student Loan Program. Chairman Peter Hoekstra outlined how vital higher education has become for access to quality employment and the possible problems with direct federal lending. Representative Sawyer responded with positive information on the Ford program and a recommendation for no major adjustments. Representative Petri critiqued the program and suggested reform measures. Representative Istook testified that the direct lending program is a mistake and that this function should be privatized. Senator Paul Simon testified in support of direct lending citing feed-back from institutions that have participated. Representative Bart Gordon urged further testing of direct lending before allowing full implementation. A representative of Maine Education Services, a secondary market lender, testified on the success of that program. Financial aid directors from Hope College (Michigan), California State University, Northridge; and Roger Williams College (Rhode Island) also testified on their experience with the direct lending program. Extensive additional materials and prepared statements are included. (JB)

Hearing on S. 797 Authorizing Funds for Fiscal Years 1996 through 2005 to Improve and Reform Literacy Services for Adults and Families, before the Subcommittee on Education, Arts and Humanities of the Committee on Labor and Human Resources. United States Senate, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session.
AN - 62641183; ED385701
AB - This Congressional hearing discussed the issue of reform of adult education and family literacy legislation. Testimony includes oral and written statements of U.S. senators and individuals representing the following: U.S. Department of Education; National Institute for Literacy; Dallas Can! Academy, Dallas, Texas; Pima County Adult Education, Tucson, Arizona; Delaware Department of Adult Education; and Central Vermont Adult Basic Education, Inc. The hearing focused on how the Federal Government, state governments and the private sector can improve the adult education delivery system. What are the goals for adult education? The three most important outcomes desired are: (1) increasing the number of high school diplomas or competencies for those who did not complete high school initially; (2) improving literacy skills, particularly by emphasizing the importance of literacy skills for parents; and (3) enhancing economic growth--productivity--so that all members of the workforce possess the necessary basic skills.

T1 - Joint Hearing on Privatizing Government Sponsored Entities (GSEs). Joint Hearing before the Subcommittee on Postsecondary Education, Training and Life-Long Learning of the Committee on Economic and Educational Opportunities and the Subcommittee on National Economic Growth, Natural Resources, and Regulatory Affairs of the Committee on Government Reform and Oversight. House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session.
AN - 62561133; ED405793
AB - This document is a congressional joint hearing report of a panel discussion exploring issues related to privatization of two government-sponsored entities (GSEs): the Student Loan Marketing Association (Sallie Mae) and the College Construction Loan Insurance Association (Connie Lee). The two issues specifically addressed by the panel were: (1) whether these GSEs were mature enough to make privatization desirable, and (2) what effects privatization might have on their investors. The report includes prepared statements by panel members Darby Bradbury, Department of Treasury, who testified in favor of privatization and also presented some historical background on the Treasury's longstanding relationship with Sallie Mae, and its position on Connie Lee; Lawrence Hough, Student Loan Marketing Association, who also supported privatization; Leo Kornfeld, Department of Education, who raised some special issues relative to privatization of Sallie Mae; and Oliver Sockwell, College Construction Loan Insurance Association, who sought complete privatization of his organization. Included also are statements by panel members Fred Khedouri, of Bear, Stearns & Company, and Robert Torrey; the transcript of the question-and-and-answer session that followed the formal presentation; and statements submitted by other interested parties.

T1 - National Assessment of College Student Learning: Identifying College Graduates' Essential Skills in Writing, Speech and Listening, and Critical Thinking. Final Project Report.
AN - 62736834; ED383255
AB - This study used an iterative Delphi survey process of about 600 faculty, employers, and policymakers to identify writing, speech and listening, and critical thinking skills that college graduates should achieve to become effective employees and citizens (National Education Goal 6). Participants reached a consensus about the importance in critical thinking of the ability to detect: indirect persuasion including the use of leading questions that are biased towards eliciting a preferred response, use of misleading language, use of slanted definitions or comparisons, and instances where irrelevant topics or considerations are brought into an argument to divert attention from the original issue. With regard to effective writing respondents thought that graduates should be able to use active or passive voice where appropriate, use correct grammar, use specific language conventions of their academic discipline, and use language that their audience understands. With regard to speech communication skills respondents reached agreement about the importance of information exchange, conversation management, group communication, and using and understanding spoken English and non-verbal signs. Extensive tables detail the Delphi survey results. (Contains 168 references.) (JB)

T1 - Vocational Course Taking and Achievement: An Analysis of High School Transcripts and 1990 NAEP Assessment Scores. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62732850; ED382883
AB - A study sought to determine the relationship between vocational course taking and academic achievement as measured by the 1990 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). Analysis of the data measured by the NAEP shows a consistent inverse relationship between vocational course taking and NAEP assessment scores. The relationship holds for mathematics, science, and reading achievement. This association persists after attempts are made to take other curriculum characteristics and background characteristics into account, although it attenuates among students whose parents did not complete high school. Despite the consistent finding that vocational course taking is inversely related to achievement on the NAEP tests, this cannot be taken as evidence that increased vocational course taking depresses achievement. Rather, it might be found that students who generally score lower on tests also tend to take vocational courses, or that students who take vocational courses miss the academic courses that may help increase test scores. (Twenty-three tables, three figures, as well as a summary of the study's methodology, are included.) (KC)

T1 - Defining the role of pollutants in the disruption of reproduction in wildlife.
AN - 21270392; 11701686
AB - Although chemical exposure has been associated with reduced reproduction in certain North American fish, reptiles, and mammals, definitive cause-and-effect data are lacking in many instances. Because the increasing use and global transport of industrial chemicals pose significant risk to successful reproduction, methods should be developed that can define the geographic extent and magnitude of injury and risk to wildlife. Because industrial chemicals are articles of commerce, information about injury to wildlife has been contentious and too often ineffective in changing societal behavior. The following strategies are advocated for inferring causal relationships. First, a balanced and comprehensive assessment of the data is necessary to determine the geographic extent of exposure and reproductive effects associated with environmental pollution. Initial efforts to document reproductive injury should focus on specific ecosystems in which detrimental effects have been observed, but lack sufficient causal data. Model systems (including experimental mesocosms or field ecosystems) should be identified or designed that can adequately test multigenerational reproductive effects. Mechanistic data from supportive laboratory studies on reproductive toxicity, quantitative structure-activity relationships, and bioaccumulation can be used to predict effects of related pollutants and to determine risk. Such information is essential to prevent future injury to wildlife and to prioritize the numerous remediation decisions facing our society.

T1 - Reproductive impairment in the Florida panther: nature or nurture?
AN - 21251435; 11701687
AB - Many of the remaining members of the endangered Florida panther (Felis concolor coryi) population suffer from one or more of a variety of physiological, reproductive, endocrine, and immune system defects including congenital heart defects, abnormal sperm, low sperm density, cryptorchidism, thyroid dysfunction, and possible immunosuppression. Mercury contamination, determined to be the cause of death of a female panther in 1989, was presented as the likely cause of thyroid dysfunction. As genetic diversity in the species was less than expected, all of the other abnormalities have been attributed to inbreeding. However, exposure to a variety of chemical compounds, especially those that have been identified as environmental endocrine disrupters (including mercury, p,p'-DDE, and polychlorinated biphenyls), has elicited all of the listed abnormalities in other species. A number of these contaminants are present in South Florida. An exposure pathway has been identified, and evidence presented in this paper, including the fact that there appears to be no significant difference between serum estradiol levels in males and females, suggests that many male panthers may have been demasculinized and feminized as a result of either prenatal or postnatal exposure. Thus, regardless of the effects of inbreeding, current evidence seems to indicate that environmental contaminants may be a major factor contributing to reproductive impairment in the Florida panther population.

T1 - Determination of propiconazole residue in boronia extract (concrete)
AN - 15957272; 4063863
AB - A method for detecting residues of the fungicide propiconazole in the petroleum ether extract (concrete) of Boronia megastigma Nees was developed. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) using low-resolution selected ion monitoring (LR SIM) had a 1 ppm detection limit in samples that had some preliminary cleanup. The use of GC/MS with high-resolution selected ion monitoring (HR SIM) had a minimum detection limit of 50 ppb for crude spiked samples of boronia concrete. This method was utilized to provide an automated assay for propiconazole residues in the concrete from boronia flowers and in extracts of vegetative material (DBO).

T1 - Potential Impact of Global Climate Change on Malaria Risk
AN - 14372501; 10501719
AB - Climatic characteristics can have a dramatic impact on the biological activity and geographic distribution of the malarial parasite and its vector. Atmospheric temperature and precipitation have the largest impacts on these issues. The relationship between anthropogenic global warming and predicted changes in the potential for a malaria epidemic is examined using a General Circulation Model-based simulation and an integrated linked-system model for malaria epidemiology. Results from these models indicate that there is a significantly increased risk of widespread malaria outbreaks due to changes in global climate. The greatest risk is on the margin of malarial areas and in high-altitude zones located in malarial areas. Human factors influencing the risk of encountering malaria are examined.

T1 - Restoration of Urban Waterways and Vacant Areas: the First Steps Toward Sustainability
AN - 14369444; 10501717
AB - Every functioning ecosystem around the world has experienced anthropogenic impacts to some degree during the course of the past century. Urban storm runoff is one of the primary contributors to the degradation of the quality of wetlands, rivers, and other surface waters. Many communities have begun implementing restoration programs aimed at improving local and regional water quality. One of the most popular restoration methods is to incorporate riparian walkways with native flora. These practices encourage the return of native fauna to urban areas. The social and economic benefits of restoration of urban habitats are discussed. Undeveloped and abandoned lots can serve as good habitat for native flora and fauna. The educational benefits of these types of projects are detailed.

T1 - Biomarker Monitoring of a Population Residing Near Uranium Mining Activities
AN - 14368804; 10501720
AB - Tests conducted to determine whether or not residents living near uranium mining operations exhibit increased genotoxic effects compared to residents living elsewhere are described. A total of 24 target and 24 control residents participated in the survey. The subjects were matched based on age and gender. None of the participants were smokers. As part of the testing regime, blood samples were collected from the participants for laboratory analysis. Chromosome aberration frequencies were evaluated using the standard cytogenic assay. DNA repair responses were examined using the challenge assay. Individuals living in the vicinity of uranium mining operations exhibited an elevated mean frequency of cells having chromosome aberrations. The target population exhibited abnormal DNA repair responses.

T1 - Resolving Intertracer Inconsistencies in Soil Ingestion Estimation
AN - 14368496; 10501718
AB - Results from an analysis of the sources and magnitude of errors in soil ingestion estimates for children are examined. The analysis is based on surveys of children conducted on a subject-week and trace element basis. Both positive and negative errors are examined. The degree of error varied from element to element. Predominantly negative errors were detected for yttrium and zirconium. Positive errors were detected for titanium and vanadium. Aluminum, silicon, and yttrium provided the best tracers for soil ingestion estimation. The current analysis replaces previous studies, which asserted that zirconium and titanium provided the best tracing characteristics for estimating soil ingestion by children. Problems with extending adult-based models to children are detailed.

T1 - Consumption of PCB-Contaminated Sport Fish and Risk of Spontaneous Fetal Death
AN - 14366019; 10501724
AB - Exposures to PCBs have been documented to cause spontaneous fetal death in several mammalian species. An analysis of the relationship between consumption of PCB-contaminated sport fish from Lake Ontario and spontaneous fetal death in women is described. The analysis was conducted using 1820 multigravid fertile women from the 199091 New York State Angler Cohort Study. Fish consumption histories were constructed via food frequency questionaires. Histories of spontaneous fetal death were obtained from live birth certificates. The analyses found no significant increase in risk of fetal death over four different measures of exposure. The four exposure measures used in the analyses are defined.

T1 - Measurement of Acidic Aerosol Species in Eastern Europe: Implications for Air Pollution Epidemiology
AN - 14365966; 10501722
AB - Many previous studies have established a link between particulate air pollution and respiratory disorders. The greatest mortality rates are associated with wintertime air pollution. The causal constituents of inhalable particulate matter have been difficult to identify. One of the primary candidates is the acidity of the aerosol. Results from an acidic aerosol species monitoring program conducted over 1.5 yr in Erfurt, Germany, and Sokolov, Czech Republic, are presented. The majority of ambient air pollution in both of these regions is caused by the burning of high-sulfur coal. The strategies used to measure the air pollution levels in these two regions are described. Results indicated that particulate acidity alone is not sufficient to explain the toxicity of fine particulate air pollution.

T1 - Technology in the School Curriculum. Contractor Report.
AN - 62733053; ED382849
AB - This report seeks to answer a set of related questions in the context of the United Kingdom: where technology education comes from, what it contributes to the curriculum and what its unique qualities are, and how excellence in students should be assessed. Part 1 describes and analyzes the evolutionary steps in the emergence of technology in the curriculum with a focus on the last 30 years. It traces the historical evolution of design and technology in the United Kingdom as a school subject, pointing out how it complements and differs from science and craft. Part 2 describes a national assessment that the author developed to find out what students learn from technology taught as design and summarizes the results. These findings are reported: girls appear to be better at identifying tasks, investigating, and appraising ideas, whereas boys seem to be better at generating and developing ideas; and Craft Design and Technology course students consistently outperformed the control group. Part 3 describes why technology education has been so successful. It points out some compelling reasons that have led head teachers, administrators, parents, politicians, and employers to value the contribution that it makes to children's development: the closeness between the process of design and technology and the process of thought; the centrality of communication; cooperative learning; and the direct link between technology in schools and subsequent industrial employment.

T1 - Direct Funding through Block Grants. Oversight Hearing on Providing Direct Funding through Block Grants to Tribes To Administer Welfare and Other Social Service Programs. Hearing before the Committee on Indian Affairs. United States Senate, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session.
AN - 62637119; ED391616
AB - A hearing before the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs received testimony concerning the feasibility of providing direct federal funding through block grants to tribes and the ability of tribes to administer local welfare and social services programs. An Assistant Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) listed federal human services programs with specific funding allocations for Native Americans, described federal support to tribal governments in providing services to children and families, and discussed the Clinton Administration's support for welfare reform but opposition to the block grant approach. A representative of the Office of Inspector General, DHHS, reported on a study indicating that the current structure of DHHS programs created a barrier to tribal governments receiving federal funds for foster care and other child welfare services. Other witnesses included U.S. Senators; other elected officials; and representatives of numerous tribes, tribal agencies, and national Indian organizations. Their testimony included the following topics: high levels of poverty and unemployment on reservations, the need for tribal governments to design and manage their own social services programs, concern that tribal sovereignty and the special government-to-government relationship between the tribes and the federal government be maintained, avoidance of conflict between tribal and state governments, tribal determination of its service population, and service delivery by multitribal consortia. Appendix of written statements includes program descriptions and funding details. (SV)

T1 - Profile of Older Undergraduates: 1989-90. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62748598; ED382122
AB - This report examines the participation of older undergraduates, above age 24, in postsecondary education using data from the 1989-90 National Postsecondary Student Aid Study (NPSAS:90) and the 1990-92 Beginning Postsecondary Student Longitudinal Study (BPS:90/92). It profiles older undergraduates and compares them with younger undergraduates with regard to demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, enrollment patterns, how they combine working with studying, and the types, sources, and amounts of financial aid they receive. It describes the participation of selected subgroups of older undergraduates including those employed full time, those enrolled full time, those enrolled less than half time, those assisted by their employers, those without high school diplomas, and single parents. Examination of persistence and attainment among older students who enrolled in postsecondary education for the first time in 1989-90 covers combining working and studying, participation in campus activities and programs, and controlling factors related to persistence. Some of the report's highlights include: (1) in 1989-90, 42 percent of all undergraduates were 24 years or older; (2) a majority of older undergraduates were married and had dependents other than a spouse; (3) 59 percent of older undergraduates attended a public less-than-4-year institution (compared with 33 percent of younger undergraduates). Appendixes contain a glossary, technical notes, and information on methodology. (JB)

T1 - Characteristics of American Indian and Alaska Native Education: Results from the 1990-91 Schools and Staffing Survey.
AN - 62742523; ED381338
AB - This report summarizes findings of the 1990-91 Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS) with regard to schools that serve American Indian and Alaska Native students. The Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) and federally recognized tribal organizations under BIA grants and contracts operate 149 elementary and secondary schools. In addition, 1,260 public schools are considered to have high Indian student enrollment (over 25 percent). These two types of schools are located mainly in rural areas and small towns. However, of the 445,425 American Indian and Alaska Native students enrolled in grades K-12, 56 percent attend public schools with low Indian enrollment. Chapters contain many data tables and figures and provide information for the three school types on the following: (1) school and student profiles (school size, rurality, region, student sex and race/ethnicity, bilingual education and remedial programs, free or reduced-price lunch, and college preparation); (2) demographic characteristics and qualifications of principals and teachers (percentage that are American Indian/Alaska Native, degrees earned, and administrative or teaching experience), schools with formal evaluation and mentoring programs for teachers, and percentage of full-time noninstructional staff; (3) principal and teacher salaries and benefits; (4) principal ratings of educational objectives, principal and teacher ratings of school problems, teacher and student absenteeism rates, principal beliefs about influence of various stakeholders on school practices, and principal career plans; and (5) teacher supply and demand, certification, and shortages, as well as teacher recruitment strategies. Appendices contain technical notes on the SASS and tables of variance estimates. Contains an index and a list of additional resources on the SASS. (SV)

T1 - Teachers & Technology: Making the Connection. OTA Report Summary.
AN - 62637811; ED386154
AB - The report suggests that, in the process of acquiring hardware and software for students to use, teachers often have been overlooked. To use new technologies well, teachers need more than just access to these resources. They need opportunities to discover what the technologies can do, learn how to operate them, and experiment with ways to best apply them in their classrooms. This report seeks to underscore the connection between teachers and the implementation of technology in schools. Several key findings are examined in this summary: national statistics on computer equipment levels in schools; teacher computer use data; teacher attitudes toward technology; curriculum integration; teacher technology education; federal teacher development programs; and the educational level of focus of governmental support of technology in schools. A discussion on policy options and governmental role includes: "Federal Leadership: Legitimizing, Funding, and Targeting Technology"; "Research, Development, and Dissemination"; "Educating New Teachers, Professional Development, and Teacher Support"; and "School Access to the Emerging Telecommunications Infrastructure."

T1 - Teachers & Technology: Making the Connection.
AN - 62633410; ED386155
AB - Do teachers use technology in their teaching? Why? What happens when they do? Why don't more teachers use technology? How do teachers learn about technology? Are prospective teachers being prepared to use technology before entering the classroom? Which factors influence implementation of technology across schools and districts? What roles do schools, districts, states, and the federal government play in helping teachers adjust to the challenges and opportunities presented by new technologies? This report describes the results of the Office of Technology Assessment's (OTA) research into all of these questions, and seeks to underscore the connection between teachers and effective implementation of technology in schools. Research methods used include: site visits to schools of all grade levels across the country; conversations with teachers, researchers, and administrators; two focus groups of teachers; in-depth interviews with average teachers regarding their experiences with technology; a survey of faculty and recent graduates of colleges of education regarding technology use in preservice teacher education; a research review of telecommunications networks; and a review of past and current federal programs and support for teacher development and technology. The six chapters include: "Summary and Policy Options"; "The Promise of Technology for Teachers"; "Technology Access and Instructional Use in Schools Today"; "Helping Teachers Learn About and Use Technology Resources"; "Technology and the Preparation of New Teachers"; and "Technology and Teacher Development: The Federal Role." Six appendices provide a list of boxes, figures and tables; sources of survey data; a glossary; a list of workshop participants, and reviewers and contributors; a list of contributing sites; and contractor reports prepared for this assessment. An index is included. (MAS)

T1 - Students' School Transition Patterns between 8th and 10th Grades, Based on NELS:88. National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988.
AN - 62612803; ED389709
AB - This study is based on the National Education Longitudinal Survey of 1988 (NELS:88) sponsored by the National Center for Education Statistics. NELS:88 is a nationally representative sample of approximately 25,000 eighth graders who were enrolled in public or private school in 1988. About 21,000 students were resurveyed in 1990, a second follow-up was completed in 1992, a third follow-up was completed in 1994, and one more additional follow-up interview is planned for 1998. NELS:88 provides a wealth of information on students as they progress through the school system, including information collected from their parents, teachers, and school principals. This study examined the characteristics of students who switched between school sectors (public to private, or private to public) as they moved from 8th to 10th grade. Variables were examined in the following categories: (1) student and family background; (2) parent involvement; (3) academic achievement and educational expectations; (4) characteristics of the student's school; and (5) parental satisfaction with the school. Families of high socioeconomic status were more likely to shift to private schools, as were Catholic students. Females were more likely to shift to public school than were males, but there was no significant association between student race and ethnic background and the likelihood of shifting between school sectors. Appendixes describe the data and methodology and give sample size tables. Eight text tables and 9 appendix tables present study information. (Author/SLD)

T1 - Recent advances in measuring exhaled breath and estimating exposure and body burden for volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
AN - 21354275; 7705716
AB - An improved portable breath measurement method has been developed that allows 1-min sampling times. The equipment has been successfully tested in field and chamber studies. Results of these studies suggest that breath levels following known exposures are predictable and reproducible across a small number of volunteers. The residence times in the body and the distribution in body compartments of several common air toxics have been determined. A simple four-compartment linear model is capable of fitting the observed data. The main parameters of the model include the fraction f of the parent compound exhaled under steady-state conditions and the residence times tau i, in the tau ith compartment. The values of these parameters for several VOCs and for the four body compartments (blood, vessel-rich tissues, vessel-poor tissues, and fat) are provided.

T1 - Issues associated with the design of a national probability sample for human exposure assessment.
AN - 21262091; 11701684
AB - Data obtained from national probability sample surveys provide important information on the prevalence of various health conditions and distributions of physical and biochemical characteristics of the U.S. population. The sample design of a survey specifies how sampling from a designated population over a stated period is to be accomplished. A survey's analytical objectives and interests--in particular subpopulations--affect the sample design strategy. Selected subdomains of the population often must be oversampled so that estimates can be made with acceptable precision. This article addresses sample design considerations for a national probability sample for human tissue monitoring and specimen banking. Among the sampling issues addressed are the oversampling of special populations e.g., minority groups and at-risk groups such as low income or elderly persons; geographic coverage; and sample size considerations. The sample design for a major health survey, the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III), is used to illustrate a complex, multistage probability sample design and to highlight some of the sampling issues discussed in this article.

T1 - Using biological monitoring to assess human exposure to priority toxicants.
AN - 21253800; 11701683
AB - Scientifically valid exposure assessment is crucial to risk assessment, risk management, and prevention of environmental disease. Scientists have used three tools to assess exposure: exposure history/questionnaire, environmental monitoring (including personal monitoring), and biological monitoring. Combinations of these tools usually provide the exposure information needed to meet objectives of human studies evaluating the exposure-health effect relationship. Biological monitoring is a capable exposure assessment tool that has provided important information used in public health decisions. We briefly describe how risk assessment and risk management decisions for lead, dioxin, and volatile organic compounds have substantially benefited from exposure information obtained from biological monitoring.

T1 - The role of specimen banking in risk assessment.
AN - 21253428; 11701685
AB - The risk assessment process is described with a focus on the hazard identification and dose-response components. Many of the scientific questions and uncertainties associated with these components are discussed, and the role for biomarkers and specimen banking in supporting these activities are assessed. Under hazard identification, the use of biomarkers in defining and predicting a) biologically adverse events; b) the progression of those events towards disease; and c) the potential for reversibility are explored. Biomarker applications to address high-to-low dose extrapolation and interindividual variability are covered under dose-response assessment. Several potential applications for specimen banking are proposed.

T1 - The priority toxicant reference range study: interim report.
AN - 21251412; 11703596
AB - The relationship between human exposure to environmental toxicants and health effects is of utmost interest to public health scientists. To define this relationship, these scientists need accurate and precise methods for assessing human exposure and effects. One of the most accurate and precise means of assessing exposure is to measure the level of the toxicant or its primary metabolite in a biologic specimen; this has been defined as measuring the internal dose. This measurement must be quantitative to best study the dose-response relationship. Pertinent questions asked during an exposure assessment include "How do the levels of a given toxicant in a particular population compare with the levels of that toxicant in other populations?" and "What is the prevalence of exposure to that toxicant in other populations?" To answer these questions for two chemical classes of environmental toxicants, we developed state-of-the-art analytic methods and then applied them to measure the levels of 44 environmental toxicants in biologic specimens from 1000 United States residents who participated in the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III). These 1000 people are a cross-sectional subset of the NHANES III population and were selected from urban and rural communities in four regions of the United States; all were between 20 and 59 years of age. This subset is not a probability-based sample.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

T1 - Environmental and Dietary Estrogens and Human Health: Is There a Problem?
AN - 14375449; 10501021
AB - Key papers are reviewed that have been used to support the hypotheses that environmental estrogens play a role in the increased incidence of breast cancer in women and decreased sperm counts in males. Environmental/dietary estrogens and anti-estrogens are identified, and intakes of estrogen equivalents are estimated to compare the relative dietary impacts of various classes of estrogenic chemicals. Data are presented on the role of estrogens in breast cancer and male reproductive problems, the synthetic industrial chemicals with estrogenic activity, natural estrogenic compounds, and environmental and dietary anti-estrogens. The uptake of environmental or dietary chemicals that elicit common biochemical/toxic responses are estimated using an equivalency-factor approach. It is argued that the linkage between dietary/environmental estrogens and the increased incidence of breast cancer is unproven, as there is a lack of correlation between higher organochlorine levels in breast-cancer patients compared to controls and the low levels of organochlorine estrogen equivalents in the diet. The hypothesis that male reproductive problems and decreased sperm counts are related to increased exposure to environmental and dietary estrogens is also unproven.

T1 - Toward Less Misleading Comparisons of Uncertain Risks: the Example of Aflatoxin and Alar
AN - 14371500; 10501026
AB - The fundamental flaw in how comparative risk assessments (CRAs) are performed is explored, using a well-known risk comparison: the allegation that exposure to the naturally occurring carcinogen aflatoxin was substantially riskier than exposure to the pesticide Alar. The criticisms of CRA are elucidated, and the overconfidence in risk comparison is discussed. The analysis concerns a re-examination of one of the most influential examples of small CRA: the conclusion that the aflatoxin B sub(1) contained in a daily ration of peanut butter posed 18 time greater risk than Alar in a daily ration of apple juice. The calculation of excess cancer risk is described, along with the data sources. Monte Carlo simulation results indicate that the risk factor is found to lie within the plausible risk ratios ranging from nearly 400:1 in favor of aflatoxin to nearly 40:1 in the opposite direction. The data indicate that the best estimates of the relative risk of aflatoxin to Alar are much closer to 1:1 than to 18:1.

T1 - Dioxin Activates HIV-1 Gene Expression by an Oxidative Stress Pathway Requiring a Functional Cytochrome P450 CYP1A1 Enzyme
AN - 14370918; 10501024
AB - Research has shown that TCDD causes a profusion of apparently unrelated toxic effects in which the single common denominator is the aromatic hydrocarbon receptor-mediated transcriptional activation of the cytochrome P450 CYP1A1 gene. Using mouse hepatoma cells, the effect of TCDD treatment was investigated on the activation of a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter gene fused to the long terminal repeat sequences of the human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1). The effects of aflatoxin B sub(1), TCDD, and several PAHs on transient CAT expression were examined. Results indicated that TCDD, aflatoxin B sub(1), and several PAHs can significantly activate the expression of genes linked to the long terminal repeat sequences of HIV-1. The magnitude of activation appeared to be different for the various compounds tested. The highest level of CAT activation was observed with benzo[a]pyrene treatment, which may provide a possible molecular explanation for the observation that cigarette smoking accelerates the progression of acquired immune deficiency syndrome.

T1 - The Need for Water Quality Criteria for Frogs
AN - 14366885; 10501022
AB - Amphibians are considered reliable indicators of environmental quality, as all life stages are susceptible to dermal absorption of toxicants in water. Ingestion of contaminated prey is also a potential pathway for toxicants to enter amphibians. The factors contributing to the decline of frog populations are identified, including habitat loss, overexploitation, disease, climate change, and deteriorating water quality. The alterations in water quality have been attributed to acidification, contaminants in agroecosystems in the western US, and eutrophication. Currently, no water-quality criteria exist for amphibians in the US. Consequently, tolerance limits for amphibians need to be determined and compared with existing criteria for fishes and human health in light of the declines in the quantity and quality of water and amphibian populations in many areas of the US.

AN - 62641528; ED387662
AB - This document records the oral and written testimony of persons who testified at a hearing on how vocational rehabilitation for persons with disabilities, particularly severe disabilities, can be improved. Witnesses included directors of federal and state rehabilitation services departments, and officials of rehabilitation provider organizations and support groups for persons with disabilities. Some of the points made by the various witnesses were the following: (1) vocational rehabilitation should remain a separate entity and not be merged with general job training because the severely disabled may not be provided with the services they need; (2) the state of Kentucky is providing one-stop job training centers that serve the needs of all people, including those with severe disabilities; (3) some persons have been able to lead productive, professional lives and repay the investment in their vocational rehabilitation through that training; (4) some private groups can provide innovative programs of vocational rehabilitation and increase the choices of those who need the services; and (5) using block grants to states may not necessarily reduce expenses.

AN - 62746265; ED384759
AB - This document records the oral and written testimony of more than 50 witnesses who testified in a series of hearings held by a U.S. House of Representatives subcommittee on establishing a streamlined top quality and efficient system of work force preparation for young people and dislocated workers. The hearings focused on what the federal role should be in changing education both at the secondary and that postsecondary levels to meet the global economy demands of a high performance workplace. Witnesses included practitioners in the field who have been successful in designing educational programs that teach students the academic and vocational skills they will need to meet the needs of employers; other witnesses were students who have benefited from innovative educational programs and employers who have hired students who meet their employment demands. The witnesses testified that innovative approaches are working in some places in the country and that federal legislation that gives local communities and schools the flexibility to implement these ideas without burdensome regulations is needed. The witnesses especially wanted some funding for innovative ideas without the huge amounts of time-consuming paperwork that are presently necessary to fulfill the requirements for various federal set-aside programs.

T1 - State Dropout Data Collection Practices: 1991-92 School Year. Methodology Report.
AN - 62745310; ED383735
AB - The school year 1991-92 was the first in which states reported school district level data on the numbers and types of dropouts in the Common Core of Data (CCD) Agency Universe Survey. Information included numbers of male and female dropouts in 5 racial/ethnic categories for grades 7 through 12. The CCD defined a dropout as a student who had been enrolled at any time during the previous school year and was not enrolled on October 1 of the current school year. Because it was the introductory year of such reporting, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) asked the states how successful they had been in meeting the requirements. Across the 50 states and the District of Columbia, 43 states (including the District of Columbia) reported dropout counts by school district, with the number expected to rise in 1993-94. Of the 43 reporting states, 14 followed CCD standards so well that NCES can publish their 1991-92 data. This study identified ways in which the state reports differed from CCD standards. Issues of reporting comprehensiveness are explored. Nineteen tables (including six in an appendix) and one figure present survey findings. Three appendixes contain Dropout Task Force report, dropout reporting interview questions, and technical notes. (SLD)

AN - 62742860; ED380659
AB - Data from the fourth follow-up to the High School and Beyond survey were analyzed to identify patterns in the educational attainment, employment outcomes, and family formation of the 1980 sophomore class in 1992. Those members of the 1980 sophomore class who set high goals in high school tended to have higher average levels of educational attainment 10 years after leaving high school than did those who had lower postsecondary expectation. Regardless of respondents' socioeconomic status or performance on standardized tests, those who delayed entry into postsecondary education were less likely to earn a bachelor's degree or higher. Earnings were significantly related to level of educational attainment. Married respondents earned more than those who were never married or divorced. Respondents' voting rates in the 1988 elections were positively associated with educational attainment. More than 95% of those surveyed valued success in work and having steady work, strong friendships, and better opportunities for their children, whereas only 56% felt that having money was important. Approximately half of the respondents had at least one child by 1992, and nearly 10% had three children. (Forty-six tables/figures are included. Appended are a glossary, technical notes, and nine essay standard error tables.) (MN)

T1 - Regulatory ozone modeling: status, directions, and research needs.
AN - 21287479; 11703594
AB - The Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) of 1990 have established selected comprehensive, three-dimensional, Photochemical Air Quality Simulation Models (PAQSMs) as the required regulatory tools for analyzing the urban and regional problem of high ambient ozone levels across the United States. These models are currently applied to study and establish strategies for meeting the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for ozone in nonattainment areas; State Implementation Plans (SIPs) resulting from these efforts must be submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) in November 1994. The following presentation provides an overview and discussion of the regulatory ozone modeling process and its implications. First, the PAQSM-based ozone attainment demonstration process is summarized in the framework of the 1994 SIPs. Then, following a brief overview of the representation of physical and chemical processes in PAQSMs, the essential attributes of standard modeling systems currently in regulatory use are presented in a nonmathematical, self-contained format, intended to provide a basic understanding of both model capabilities and limitations. The types of air quality, emission, and meteorological data needed for applying and evaluating PAQSMs are discussed, as well as the sources, availability, and limitations of existing databases. The issue of evaluating a model's performance in order to accept it as a tool for policy making is discussed, and various methodologies for implementing this objective are summarized. Selected interim results from diagnostic analyses, which are performed as a component of the regulatory ozone modeling process for the Philadelphia-New Jersey region, are also presented to provide some specific examples related to the general issues discussed in this work. Finally, research needs related to a) the evaluation and refinement of regulatory ozone modeling, b) the characterization of uncertainty in photochemical modeling, and c) the improvement of the model-based ozone-attainment demonstration process are presented to identify future directions in this area.

In contrast to studies of residential exposure to magnetic fields, occupational studies include electric and magnetic field exposures and have much greater variability in field intensity, frequency, and temporal patterns. Studies of leukemia in electrical workers show a moderate consistency, with elevated risk ratios of 1.2 to 2.0 commonly observed. Brain tumors are similarly elevated with some consistency, and three recent studies have suggested increased risk of male breast cancer. Retrospective exposure assessment methods were advanced in recent studies of diverse occupations in a study in central Sweden, which yielded evidence of increased risk of chronic lymphocytic leukemia among men in more highly exposed occupations. A study of telephone workers in New York State incorporated measurements and found some indication of increased leukemia risk only when exposures were based on historical technology. Utility workers in southern California were studied and found not to have increased risks of leukemia and brain cancer based on exposures estimated with measurements. An ongoing study of electric utility workers at five companies in the United States incorporates an extensive measurement protocol. Randomly selected workers within occupational categories wore a time-integrating magnetic-field meter to provide estimates of exposure for the occupational category. We were able to estimate and partition the variance into between-day (the largest contributor), within occupational categories, and between occupational categories. Principal research needs concern optimal levels of worker aggregation for exposure assignment, historical extrapolation, study of diverse work environments, and integration of residential and occupational exposure in the same study.

T1 - Radon exposure and cancers other than lung cancer in Swedish iron miners.
AN - 21257372; 11703592
AB - Data are presented on the risks of cancers other than lung cancer in a cohort of iron miners from northern Sweden occupationally exposed to elevated levels of the radioactive gas radon. Compared with rates for the four northernmost counties of Sweden, mortality was increased for all cancers other than lung cancer (ratio of observed to expected deaths 1.21, 95% confidence interval 1.03-1.41), stomach cancer (ratio of observed to expected deaths 1.45, 95% confidence interval 1.04-1.98), and rectal cancer (ratio of observed to expected deaths 1.94, 95% confidence interval 1.03-3.31). Despite these overall increases, mortality was not significantly associated with cumulative exposure to radon, either for all cancers other than lung cancer or for any site of cancer other than lung cancer individually. However, the data from this cohort on its own have limited power; and for several sites of cancer the data in this study would be consistent with a radon-related increase. Further study of cancers other than lung cancer in populations exposed to radon is required.

T1 - Relationship between summertime ambient ozone levels and emergency department visits for asthma in central New Jersey.
AN - 21255733; 11704917
AB - The 5-year retrospective study of the association between temperature and emergency department (ED) visits for asthma with mean ambient ozone levels between 10:00 and 15:00 was conducted in central New Jersey during the summer months. An association was identified in each of the years (1986-1990). Between 8 and 34% of the total variance in ED visits for asthma was explained by the two environmental variables in the step-wise multiple regression analysis. ED visits occurred 28% more frequently when the mean ozone levels were > 0.06 ppm than when they were & 0.06 ppm. This result was statistically significant in a covariance analysis. An evaluation of the effects of ozone on asthmatics reported in the literature was completed to determine if, as proposed by Bates, the results from different types of studies were coherent among the health metrics. A consistency in the magnitude of reported effects and the time lag between exposure and response for four different health indices (symptom reports, decrements in expiratory flow, ED visits, and hospital admissions) was identified and indicates a coherence between ozone and respiratory response to ozone exposure. This supports a proposition that ozone adversely affects asthmatics at levels below the current U.S. standard.

T1 - Workshop on perinatal exposure to dioxin-like compounds. II. Reproductive effects.
AN - 21251716; 11701676
AB - This summary report focuses on current studies on reproductive effects reported at the workshop on Perinatal Exposure to Dioxin-like Compounds and supporting data noted in the discussion. Recent laboratory studies have suggested that altered development (e.g., low birth weight, spontaneous abortion, congenital malformation) and reproductive health (e.g., fertility, sex organ development, reproductive behavior) may be among the most sensitive end points when examining the effects of dioxinlike compounds. Thus, future research should target the reproductive health of both males and females exposed postnatally and prenatally. Studies in humans are needed and are on-going. In animal models, postnatal exposure to dioxin or dioxinlike compounds has been associated with abnormal spermatogenesis and abnormal testicular morphology and size in males and with reduced fertility and endometriosis in females. In utero exposure may also produce profound reproductive consequences in both males and females including delays in sexual maturation, abnormalities in development of sexual organs, and abnormal sexual behavior. The mechanism by which dioxin-like compounds cause reproductive effects is not well delineated.

T1 - Effects of secondarily-treated sewage effluent on the early life-history stages of two species of brown macroalgae: Hormosira banksii and Durvillaea potatorum
AN - 17079280; 3897908
AB - Sewage effluent has a deleterious effect on the early life-history stages of Hormosira banksii Decaisne and Durvillaea potatorum (Labillardiere). High concentrations of sewage effluent (28 and 40% in seawater) inhibit zygote germination by 55 to 95%, retard embryo growth (80 to 100%) and cause severe embryo mortality, with less than 60 and 5% surviving after 14 d, respectively. It is probable that such adverse effects would significantly reduce levels of recruitment of these species in sewage-affected localities, and that sewage effluent has played an important role in the decline of these species from several rock platforms in south-east Victoria, Australia. Zygote germination, embryo growth and embryo mortality were inhibited plus or minus ongruent 40% more strongly in sewage effluent than diluted seawater, showing that the effect of sewage effluent is not simply one of seawater dilution. However, this effect was only observed at high concentrations (28 and 40%). The absence of any difference between the low concentrations of sewage effluent (4 and 12% in seawater) and diluted seawater suggests that the dilution of waste water is important in mitigating its more harmful effects. The sensitivity of H. banksii and D. potatorum embryos to the composition of the medium in which they grow and the ease with which they can be manipulated in culture suggest that they may be utilised as biological indicators of water quality.

T1 - Assessment of genetic variation in wild populations of the redclaw crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus, von Martens 1868) by means of allozyme and RAPD-PCR markers
AN - 17068438; 3887807
AB - The population structure of the redclaw crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus) was investigated by analyses of allozymes and RAPD (randomly amplified polymorphic DNA) markers. Electrophoretic analysis of 28 enzyme loci in 12 redclaw populations from the Northern Territory (NT) and North Queensland (NQ) revealed generally low estimates of heterozygosity within each population and low estimates of genetic differentiation among populations except for a fixed allelic difference at the carbonic anhydrase (CA*) locus between NT and NQ populations. Low levels of genetic variability among the NQ populations is possibly a reflection of their recent radiation across the Gulf of Carpentaria after its inundation between 18000 and 6000 BP. RAPD analysis of seven redclaw populations could distinguish each river population and also grouped them according to geographic proximity. RAPD analyses also revealed significant genetic variability both within the species and within individual populations, which could be used to improve their culture. On a preliminary scale, RAPD fragments provided a useful tool for differentiating redclaw strains and constitute a marking system that could be used in crayfish genetic improvement programmes.

T1 - The production and trophic ecology of shallow-water fish assemblages in southern Australia. 2. Diets of fishes and trophic relationships between fishes and benthos at Western Port, Victoria
AN - 17029855; 3865704
AB - A total of 5113 fishes belonging to 91 species was collected from seagrass and unvegetated habitats at Western Port for dietary analysis between August 1989 and November 1990, with 720 animals having empty guts. None of the common species was found to have a highly specialised diet. Crustaceans were the dominant component in the diets of the majority (69%) of the 88 species with non-empty guts, with five species (a girellid, a mugilid, a monacanthid and two gobiids) consuming large amounts of algal material, and only one species [the garfish Hyporhamphus melanochir (Valenciennes)] ingesting seagrass in any quantity. In general, dietary differences between juveniles and adults of a species were as great as dietary differences between fish belonging to different species when at the same body size. Amongst the crustacean feeders, diets generally changed from predominantly copepods to predominantly peracarids (amphipods, isopods and mysids) at approximately 0.1 g wet body weight, and from predominantly peracarids to predominantly crabs and shrimps at approximately 100 g. Across the range of species examined, there was a close relationship between the size of ingested prey and fish biomass. Prey length averaged 7.5% of predator length. The dominant species in gillnet catches, the mullet Aldrichetta forsteri (Cuvier & Valenciennes), possessed an unusual diet because prey were smaller than for other fishes of the same body size and large quantities of algal material were also consumed. Similar trophic pathways leading to fishes were found in different habitats, with the major linkages being from benthic microalgae and detritus through epifaunal crustaceans to the smaller fishes. The major predators of small fishes were locally-resident species, the rock flathead Platycephalus laevigatus Cuvier & Valenciennes in seagrass beds and the sand flathead Platycephalus bassensis Cuvier & Valenciennes at unvegetated sites. Crustaceans supplied most of the dietary intake for the small fish communities at all sites, with molluscs and polychaetes also important but supplying >25% of food consumed at only two sites. When daily rates of consumption were compared with daily production of food, the production of crustaceans >1 mm sieve size was calculated to be all consumed by fish. The production of the non-crustacean benthos was an order of magnitude higher than that consumed by fish predators. These results indicate that the availability of high quality crustacean prey may limit the production of fishes, and that fishes are likely to compete diffusively for crustacean prey. Additional support for this hypothesis is provided by the observations that the condition of seagrass-associated fish declined, and mortality rates were high, during the autumn season when total fish consumption could not be supported by crustacean production.

T1 - Allozyme and mitochondrial DNA separation of Pacific northern bluefin tuna, Thunnus thynnus orientalis (Temminck and Schlegel), from southern bluefin tuna, Thunnus maccoyii (Castelnau)
AN - 17020507; 3860424
AB - Northern and southern bluefin tunas are morphologically similar and can be misidentified, posing problems for fishery management and marketing. Allozyme variation and restriction-site variation in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) were used to distinguish between the two species. A survey of 36 allozyme loci active in white muscle and liver tissue showed that the genetic identity between the species was high (Nei's I = 0.907). One diagnostic locus (sAH*) and two nearly diagnostic loci (ADA* and GDA*) were found, and four loci showed highly significant allele frequency differences (FH*, GPI-A*, PGDH* and sSOD*). A survey of the mtDNA genome, using 15 restriction enzymes and southern blotting, revealed five restriction enzymes that gave species-diagnostic restriction digest profiles (Ban I, Bcl I, Dra I, Pvu II, Xba I) and a further three enzymes (Pst I, Bam HI and Nco I) with large haplotype frequency differences. Mitochondrial DNA analysis provided more reliable discrimination of specimens than did allozyme analysis, although the more rapid allozyme identification will be accurate for most specimens. The two biochemical genetic methods were then used to identify Australian-caught fish of uncertain identity. Six of 12 tuna originally considered to be northern bluefin tuna were confirmed as northern bluefin and six were identified as southern bluefin. The presence of northern bluefin tuna as far south as south-western Tasmania was confirmed.

T1 - Biochemical composition of Nyctiphanes australis and its possible use as an aquaculture feed source: Lipids, pigments and fluoride content
AN - 17019680; 3862932
AB - Nyctiphanes australis contained, on a dry weight basis, an average of 52% crude protein and 5.0 to 9.5% lipid. The fatty acid profile of N. australis was markedly unsaturated, with a mean total omega 3 fatty acid content of 48.6 plus or minus 2.4% of total fatty acids. N. australis contained high levels of the essential long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic (EPA, 20:5 omega 3) and docosahexaenoic (DHA, 22:6 omega 3), ranging from 16.6 to 36.5% and 11.1 to 24.8%, respectively. The concentration of total carotenoids ranged from 137 to 302 mu g/g dry wt, with no significant differences in concentrations found with season or life stage. The carotenoids were comprised of 79.5% astaxanthin and 20.5% canthaxanthin. The lipid and pigment compositions of N. australis suggest that the species could serve as a suitable feed source for cultured salmonids. Like other euphausiids, N. australis contained high levels of fluoride, with a seasonal range between 277 and 3507 mu g/g dry wt. The high fluoride levels found in N. australis would not detract from its potential as a feed source for salmonids because ingested fluoride is largely absorbed by the skeleton.

T1 - Development and depth distribution of the eggs of orange roughy, Hoplostethus atlanticus (Pisces:Trachichthyidae)
AN - 16997098; 3843522
AB - The development of the eggs of deep-sea fish has seldom been described. The eggs of orange roughy (Hoplostethus atlanticus), a mid-slope benthopelagic fish, were fertilized and incubated at three temperatures. Those incubated at 7 degree C hatched at 13 days; wild eggs were estimated to hatch at 7.3 days. Their development rate was similar to that of eggs of fish from other orders and of shallower-living species. From depth-stratified plankton samples, early-stage eggs were found at 500-700 m. Their buoyancy was estimated to be 6.02 kg m super(-3), the upper end of the range of known fish-egg buoyancies. The eggs rose to the upper mixed layer at an estimated 23.8 m h super(-1), which is faster than ascent rates reported for other fishes. Their relative buoyancy and large size would be the reason for this faster rate. However, large egg size is apparently not an adaptation to enhance development rate; the more rapid rise into warmer water reduces development time but does not fully compensate for the slower development.

T1 - The effects of errors in the placement of the boundary between the west and south coast hake Merluccius spp. stocks on the performance of the current hake management procedure
AN - 16964896; 3809260
AB - The present basis for management recommendations for the Cape hake (Merluccius sp.) resource off South Africa assumes that there are two ("West Coast" and "South Coast") stocks, separated by a boundary line running south-west from Cape Agulhas, even though survey results suggest continuity of distribution across this line. A Monte Carlo simulation framework is developed to assess the consequences of an inappropriate placement of this boundary for the performance of the f sub(0,2) harvesting strategy currently applied to this resource. If there are two stocks in the region, their status would be incorrectly assessed, because catches taken from one would be mistakenly allocated to the other, leading to Total Allowable Catches (TACs) differing from those ideally intended. In general, the effects of inappropriate placement of the boundary are slight. The effects of random variation between the West Coast catches and the TACs for that coast are also inconsequential, unless the extent of this variation is substantial. The effect of systematic differences between West Coast catches and the corresponding TACs is of much greater importance. Achieving the desired ratio between the West and South Coast catches leads to less risk, higher TACs over the next five years and a lower probability of a TAC reduction during the same period. These results suggest that greater emphasis should be placed on the fishing industry achieving the desired split of the hake TAC between the West and South coasts.

T1 - Stock assessment and risk analysis for the South Atlantic population of Albacore Thunnus alalunga using an age-structured production model
AN - 15693474; 3971771
AB - The South Atlantic of albacore is assessed by means of an (observation-error) age-structured production model. Relative abundance (cpue) series up to 1993 from the Republic of China, Japan and South Africa are used in the model-fitting process. Coefficients of variation and confidence intervals for the estimates are obtained using the (conditioned) parametric bootstrap and the percentile methods respectively. The sensitivity of the results to violation of some of the assumptions made by the model, changes to the values of its input parameters, and changes to the abundance series used in the model-fitting process are examined. The results of the age-structured production model are contrasted with those of an age-aggregated observation-error estimator and those of a Bayesian estimator which allows also for fluctuations in recruitment. The resource was estimated to be markedly depleted - to probably slightly above 20% of its pre-exploitation level expressed in terms of exploitable biomass - and to have an annual maximum sustainable yield of slightly less than 25 000 tons. Qualitatively, the results are insensitive to the changes examined. Risk analyses are carried out for a variety of future harvesting strategies. These suggest that recent average annual catches of almost 29 000 tons need to be reduced to below 25 000 tons to prevent continued depletion of the resource. It appears that there would be almost no benefit from the introduction of a minimum size in the fishery. Careful monitoring of the situation is required to allow refinement of these estimates with time, and to check the effectiveness of any management action taken.

T1 - The effects of future consumption by the Cape fur seal on catches and catch rates of the Cape hakes. 2. Feeding and diet of the Cape fur seal Arctocephalus pusillus pusillus
AN - 15668730; 3953242
AB - The diet composition of the cape fur seal Arctocephalus pusillus pusillus off the west coast of South Africa was determined using the volumetric method from samples collected at sea between 1984 and 1990. Data were stratified spatially and temporally and an attempt was made to exclude from the analysis seals which probably scavenged from trawlers. Teleost fish made up the bulk of the diet, but cephalopods were also important. The results for individual strata were highly variable, but they suggest that young Merluccius capensis contributed some 5-30% of the diet, whereas the fraction of M. paradoxus in the diet was roughly 0-30%. However, if seals feed predominantly inshore and during the day, then the hake portion of the diet would consist almost exclusively of the inshore M. capensis.

T1 - The effects of future consumption by the Cape fur seal on catches and catch rates of the Cape hakes. 1. Feeding and diet of the Cape hakes Merluccius capensis and M. paradoxus
AN - 15667625; 3953212
AB - Estimates of diet composition and daily ration for the Cape hakes off the South African west coast are updated with information on stomach contents collected during demersal trawl surveys carried out between 1988 and 1994. The estimates of evacuation rates used for Cape hake stomach content analyses are updated using a model of the stomach evacuation process and data for juvenile Cape hake and other gadoids. The estimates of evacuation time are notably larger than those used in earlier analyses, suggesting that the time to evacuate 90% of a prey item ranges from 2 to 10 days depending on the meal size and the size of the predator. The daily ration of the shallow-water M. capensis is estimated to lie between 1,1 and 4,4% of body mass and that for the deep-water M. paradoxus between 0,7 and 4,1% of body mass. Smaller hake constitute an important component of the diet of larger hake, hake constituting up to 50% of the diet of some age-classes. Both hake species are cannibalistic and M. capensis feeds on M. paradoxus where the distributions of the two species overlap. The effect of this cannibalism and interspecific predation can have a marked effect on conclusions regarding the effects of future seal culls, and it is included in the hake-seal-other-predatory-fish-fishery system operating model used to examine the effect of possible future seal culls.

T1 - The effects of future consumption by the Cape fur seal on catches and catch rates of the Cape hakes. 4. Modelling the biological interaction between Cape fur seals Arctocephalus pusillus pusillus and the Cape hakes Merluccius capensis and M. paradoxus
AN - 15665998; 3953207
AB - The 1991 Benguela Ecology Programme Workshop on Seal-Fishery Biological Interactions outlined an approach to examine the qualitative effects of culls of a seal population on catches and catch rates of commercial fisheries. This paper applies that approach to examine the effects of possible culls of Cape fur seals Arctocephalus pusillus pusillus on catches and catch rates of the bottom-trawl fishery for the Cape hakes off the South African west coast. The approach involves constructing a "minimal realistic model" of the hake-seal system. The model considered here includes the two species of Cape hake, Merluccius capensis and M. paradoxus, the Cape fur seal and an "other predatory fish" component. Values for parameters of the model are derived from biological studies and by fitting to abundance indices for the hake and seal populations. The model is able to mimic the catch rate information for hake satisfactorily for a range of scenarios for the carrying capacity of the seal population, although the trend in hake abundance indicated since seal harvests commenced some four centuries ago until the start of the hake fishery in 1917 is, of course, questionable. The impact of the seal culls examined on the hake fishery is minimal (and can even be detrimental) for the base-case model, which takes account of both hake species and assumes that seals do not prey on the deep-water hake species M. paradoxus. This result is insensitive to changes to the values of most of those parameters of the model that are not well known. However, increasing the extent of predation by seals on M. paradoxus leads to greater projected benefits for the hake fishery under a future seal cull. It seems likely that a change in the future pattern of fishing to reflect a greater relative fishing intensity upon M. capensis would have a similar result. The conclusions of the paper will not necessarily apply to other southern African regions where the M. paradoxus: M. capensis is much lower than on the South African west coast.

T1 - Half-Life of Polybrominated Biphenyl in Human Sera
AN - 14376867; 10500684
AB - The half-life of polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) in human blood sera was determined using subjects from Michigan who had been exposed to PBB after it had been accidentally substituted for magnesium oxide as an additive for cattle feed in 1974. The subjects examined had at least two PBB measurements 1 yr apart and had an initial level of greater than or equal to 20 ppb. The half-life of PBB for each individual was estimated using simple linear regression of eligible PBB measurements and the times between them. In the subjects, the mean and median PBB levels were 172.8 and 45.5 ppb, respectively. The estimated half-life of PBB in human sera was estimated to be 10.8 yr: 18.5 and 10.2 yr for women and men, respectively.

T1 - A Polymorphism in the delta -Aminolevulinic Acid Dehydratase Gene May Modify the Pharmacokinetics and Toxicity of Lead
AN - 14375944; 10500681
AB - In 691 members of a construction trade union, associations between the presence of a constitutional variant of delta -aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD-2) and lead concentrations in blood and bone were investigated. Relationships between genotype, blood pressure, and kidney function were also investigated. Overall blood and bone Pb levels were relatively low in the study group. Data indicated that the ALAD-2 genotype was not a significant determinant of blood Pb concentrations among individuals exposed at relative low levels. Blood Pb concentrations were essentially identical between the ALAD genotypes in this population. The observed difference between patella and tibia bone Pb concentrations between genotypes suggested that ALAD status may modify the way in which Pb partitions between these bone deposits. The data suggested that low-level blood Pb concentrations may be associated with subclinical kidney effects and that ALAD-2 may contribute to this phenomenon. The results also suggested a potential ALAD-2 relationship with Pb-associated renal effects.

T1 - Mitotic Disturbances and Micronucleus Induction in Syrian Hamster Embryo Fibroblast Cells Caused by Asbestos Fibers
AN - 14374090; 10500683
AB - Syrian hamster embryo cell cultures were established to assess the mitotic disturbances and micronucleus induction caused by three different types of asbestos fibers: amosite, crocidolite, and Rhodesian chrysotile. For each dose of asbestos fibers, the number of micronuclei was determined per 2000 cells. The results of the micronucleus assay showed that chrysotile, crocidolite, and amosite induced micronuclei in a dose-dependent manner. The micronuclei frequency depended on the exposure time, reaching a maximum between 48 and 66 h. Amosite was the most potent fiber, with the highest micronuclei frequency at the lowest level of fiber concentration. All three types of fibers were taken up by phagocytosis by the cells within 24 h after administration. The asbestos fibers were found to cause both loss and breakage of chromosomes in the absence of direct interaction with spindle fibers.

T1 - Tissue Repair Response as a Function of Dose in Thioacetamide Hepatotoxicity
AN - 14374009; 10500682
AB - The fungicide thioacetamide has been found to be a potent hepatotoxin. In rats, a doseresponse relationship was developed, where tissue repair and liver injury were two simultaneous but opposing responses to the administration of thioacetamide at concentrations of 50, 150, 300, and 600 mg/kg. Both tissue injury and repair were measured 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 and 96 h after administration. The serum enzymes alanine aminotransferase and sorbitol dehydrogenase were used as markers of liver injury. In the groups receiving 50, 150, and 300 mg/kg doses, enzyme levels increased initially and then declined to normal, indicating liver injury followed by recovery from that injury. All rats receiving the sublethal doses survived, whereas those receiving the 600 mg/kg dose did not survive. The histopathology of the liver sections is described. Results indicated that, in addition to the magnitude of tissue repair responses, the time at which the repair occurred was critical in restraining the progression of injury.

T1 - Air Pollution and Unscheduled Hospital Outpatient and Emergency Room Visits
AN - 14371700; 10500686
AB - At Beijing University Hospital in China, data on unscheduled hospital visits were compiled in low- and high-pollution seasons. The 1990 data were compiled from the hospital reception department, while total suspended particulate (TSP) and sulfur dioxide data were measured at the WHO Global Air Monitoring Stations located in Xichen and Donchen. Locally weighted regression was applied to temperature, humidity, day of the week, and the time variable plus SO sub(2) or TSP. A positive association was found between daily hospital outpatient visits and both SO sub(2) and TSP, after adjustment for all other covariates. Sulfur dioxide was significantly associated with internal medicine and pediatric outpatient visits and emergency-room visits, while TSP was a significant predictor for total outpatient visits and pediatric visits.

T1 - Fall Staff in Postsecondary Institutions, 1991. E.D. TABS.
AN - 62747423; ED380015
AB - This report presents 28 tables of data about staff employed by postsecondary institutions in the fall of 1991, using data from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). The data indicate the number of staff employed by postsecondary institutions by staff categories such as faculty, managers, and research assistants and by personal characteristics such as full-time/part-time employment status and sex. Data are presented by level and control of institution and by the institution status as a higher education institution. Highlights of the data include the following: (1) almost two-thirds (64%) of all employees in postsecondary institutions were professional and over half (33.6%) of the professional staff were faculty; (2) colleges differ widely by institutional level in their practices of employing full-time staff, as 75 percent of the employees at four-year colleges were employed on a full-time basis compared with 54 percent in two-year and over 65 percent in less-than-two-year institutions; (3) men were employed in greater numbers than women in each type of professional category except in the professional non-faculty category where women comprised 61 percent of the staff; and (4) between 1989 and 1991 the number of faculty employed by four-year and two-year institutions increased by 2 and 6 percent respectively. A glossary and survey methodology discussion conclude the report. (JB)

T1 - Understanding Racial-Ethnic Differences in Secondary School Science and Mathematics Achievement. Research and Development Report.
AN - 62742745; ED381342
AB - This study was designed to address two related issues: (1) Why are Blacks, Hispanics, and American Indians underrepresented in science and mathematics-related fields, and (2) Why do students of these minority groups have lower achievement test scores in science and mathematics than other students? Data on a number of home, school, and student variables were collected from the 1988 eighth-grade cohort of the National Education Longitudinal Study. Major findings include: (1) At early ages, all students have equally positive attitudes toward science and mathematics learning in school and have similar aspirations for science and mathematics-related careers, but as they get older, more minority students become unprepared to enter these fields as they fall behind in mathematics and science learning; (2) a larger percentage of minority students come from families in poverty which have fewer learning materials at home such as books and computers, and their parents are more likely than others to have low educational levels and to be unemployed and are less likely to provide adequate mentoring or role models for mathematics and science learning; and (3) these minority students are more likely to attend disadvantaged schools where the overall academic and supporting environments are less conducive to learning, suffer from the lack of persistent effort and active involvement in school, and are in low-track achievement groups. Appendices include data tables; National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) Databases for Studies of Science and Mathematics in Education; Specification of Variables Used in the Study; and a table of Correlation Coefficients for Contextual and Process Variables.

T1 - Design Effects and Generalized Variance Functions for the 1990-91 Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS). Volume II. Technical Report.
AN - 62656432; ED397096
AB - This technical report provides the results of a study on the calculation and use of generalized variance functions (GVFs) and design effects for the 1990-91 Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS). The SASS is a periodic integrated system of sample surveys conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) that produces sampling variances different from those produced by simple random sampling with fixed sample size. An introduction provides a conceptual and contextual discussion, addressing the reasoning for using general analytical techniques to calculate standard errors for complex survey data. The second section describes groups of survey statistics users might want to select. In Section 3, the procedure and computational formulas for calculating the design effects for the most common types of estimates (totals, means, and proportions) are presented. Section 4 then gives the technical details of GVF fitting. The design effect and GVF results obtained from the 1990-92 SASS are presented in Section 5. Section 6 discusses possible next steps in calculating standard errors for NCES surveys. (Contains 8 tables, 12 figures, and 25 references.) (SLD)

T1 - High School and Beyond Fourth Follow-Up Methodology Report. Technical Report.
AN - 62628832; ED386459
AB - This report describes and evaluates the methods, procedures, techniques, and activities that produced the fourth (1992) follow-up of the High School and Beyond (HS&B) study. HS&B began in 1980 as the successor to the National Longitudinal Study of the High School Class of 1972. The original collection techniques of HS&B were replaced by computer assisted telephone interviews, and other electronic techniques replaced the original methods. HS&B data are more user-friendly and less resource-dependent as a results of these changes. There were 2 components to the fourth follow-up: (1) the respondent survey which was a computer assisted telephone interview (CATI) based on 14,825 members of the 1980 sophomore cohort, and (2) a transcript study based on the 9,064 sophomore cohort members who reported postsecondary attendance. The response to the respondent survey was 85.3%. Response rate for the transcript study varied from 50.4% at private, for-profit institutions to 95.1% at public, four-year institutions. Technical innovations in this survey round included verification and correction of previously collected data through the CATI instrument, online coding applications, and statistical quality control. Survey data and information about the methodology are presented in 49 tables. An appendix contains the transcript request packages. (SLD)

AN - 62546479; ED406056
AB - This hearing transcript presents testimony on the effects of placing federal nutrition programs in state block grants as required by the Personal Responsibility Act, the welfare bill contained in the "Contract with America." Witnesses testified that federal food programs such as Women Infants and Children (WIC), the Senior Nutrition Program, and school lunch, breakfast, and milk programs, are effective; diminished federal support for nutrition programs will create an unfunded liability for states, localities, and private charities; there are problems in predictability and responsiveness of funding levels in a block grant approach to nutrition programs; changes in nutrition programs could result in greater efficiency; and there are problems in proposed capped entitlement approaches. Testimony was offered by: (1) representatives of school districts; (2) the president of a food research center; (3) a director of a hospital WIC program; (4) the executive director of a senior citizens council; (5) the director of a nutrition services program; and (6) representatives from Missouri, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Texas, Rhode Island, and California.

T1 - Bone lead measured by X-ray fluorescence: epidemiologic methods.
AN - 21262028; 11701674
AB - In vivo X-ray fluorescence (XRF) measurement of bone lead concentration (XRF) has emerged as an important technique for future epidemiological studies of long-term toxicity. Several issues germane to epidemiologic methodology need to be addressed, however. First, sources of variability in measurements of bone lead need to be quantified, including imprecision related to the physical measurement itself and the variability of lead deposition over the two main compartments of bones (cortical vs. trabecular) and within each compartment. Imprecision related to the physical measurement can be estimated for each individual measurement based on the variability of the signal and background. Second, approaches to low-level data need to be debated. We argue for using the minimal detection limit (MDL) to compare instruments and interpret individual measurements; however, with regard to epidemiologic studies, we would abandon the MDL in favor of using all point estimates. In analyses using bone lead as an independent variable, statistical techniques can be used to adjust regression estimates based on estimates of measurement uncertainty and bone lead variability. Third, factors that can be expected to modify the relationship between bone lead and toxicity such as gravida history, endocrinological states, nutrition, and other important influences on bone metabolism, need to be identified and measured in epidemiologic studies. By addressing these issues, investigators will be able to maximize the utility of XRF measurements in environmental epidemiologic studies. Images Figure 2.

T1 - Relevance of risk assessment to exposed communities.
AN - 21260733; 11701672
AB - Current environmental policy tends to evaluate potential, theoretical exposure to health risks by evaluating one chemical or hazard at a time. Risk assessment techniques used by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and other government agencies do not evaluate the cumulative impact of exposure to environmental contaminants. This problem is of particular significance to low-income and minority populations who tend to live in neighborhoods and work in locations that involve exposure to pollutants in air, water, and workplace activity. Certain areas within the border typify this lifestyle. The problem is further complicated by the fact that EPA operates separate programs for different "media." Exposure patterns in the border suggest the need for a cross-media pollution prevention approach. Minority recruitment into health research, a coordination of research approaches and dollars, and new resources for effective monitoring of minority communities could provide a basic assessment of the risks and their sources. Further research into the cumulative impacts of prevalent subsets of chemicals is also needed. Recent efforts in the Great Lakes may provide a model for this type of regional, cross-border effort.

T1 - Metals in some lagoons of Mexico.
AN - 21260192; 11703589
AB - The concentrations of metals, Cd, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn were determined in some lagoons to establish the level of metal pollution. The lagoons studied were Alvarado lagoon, Veracruz; San Andres lagoon, Tamaulipas; and Terminos lagoon, Campeche. The concentrations were determined in water, oyster (Crassostrea virginica), and sediments. Metals were accumulated in either oysters or sediments. Cu and Zn were higher in oysters and Fe and Mn were higher in sediments. The results in water samples were compared with the limit established by the Secretaria de Ecologia and Desarrollo Urbano Report and briefly discussed.

T1 - Environmental exposure to chromium compounds in the valley of Leon, Mexico.
AN - 21253340; 11701671
AB - The effects on the environment and health of the operation of a chromate compounds factory and tanneries in the Leon valley in central Mexico are discussed. Sampling and analysis of chromium were performed in water, soil, and human urine. Groundwater has been polluted in an area of about 5 km2 by the leaching of a solid factory waste, which results in concentrations up to 50 mg/l of hexavalent chromium. The plume shape and extension appear to be controlled by the prevailing well extraction regime. Total chromium was detected in the soil around the factory as a result of both aerial transport and deposition of dust produced in the chromate process and irrigation with tannery-contaminated water. Analysis of the impact of chromium in air and water on populations with various degrees of exposure revealed that highly harmful health effects were not observed.

T1 - Metal transport in cells: cadmium uptake by rat hepatocytes and renal cortical epithelial cells.
AN - 21251420; 11701670
AB - The toxic metals appear to use the transport pathways that exist for biologically essential metals. In this regard interactions between the toxic and essential metals are possible. This report summarizes recent findings on the transport of cadmium in rat hepatocytes and renal cortical epithelial cells in the presence or absence of certain essential metals. The transport of cadmium in hepatocytes does not require energy and, therefore, is not an active process. It occurs primarily (80%) by temperature-sensitive processes, i.e., ion channels and carriers, that involve interaction with sulfhydryl groups. These processes apparently exist for the transport of essential metals like copper, zinc and calcium. The remaining 20% of the cadmium in hepatocytes is transported via a temperature-insensitive process, possibly by diffusion. In comparison with the hepatocytes, a smaller fraction (30%) of the cadmium transport through the basolateral membrane and none from the apical membrane of the renal cortical epithelial cells is temperature-sensitive. Total accumulation through the basolateral membrane is about twice that through the apical membrane. A majority of the cadmium transport in the renal cells is by diffusion. As in hepatocytes, copper, zinc and mercury antagonize cadmium transport through the apical membranes of the renal cells. The relative antagonism by copper is the same (25%); however, the antagonism by zinc (16%) and mercury (10%) is 4- to 6-fold lower than in hepatocytes. It appears that the relative contribution of various transport pathways available for cadmium uptake is different in each cell type and apparently depends on the morphological and functional differences between the cell membranes.

T1 - Oxidation-reduction reactions of metal ions.
AN - 21251073; 11703591
AB - Several metal or metalloid ions exist in multiple oxidation states and can undergo electron transfer reactions that are important in biological and environmental systems. There are endogenous metal ions such as iron, copper, and cobalt that participate in oxidation-reduction reactions with species of oxygen like molecular dioxygen, superoxide, and hydrogen peroxide. These reactions may be modulated by endogenous reducing agents such as glutathione, ascorbate, and tocopherol. The reactions can be described in terms of thermodynamics through the use of standard electrode potentials. A favorable reaction will depend on the concentrations of the reactants and may depend on the pH and/or on the presence of organic ligands that form complexes with the metal or metalloid. Arsenate (As(V)) can react with glutathione in buffered aqueous solutions to produce arsenite (As(III)) and oxidized glutathione. This reaction may be important in the methylation reactions of arsenic. Arsenic species can decrease the red blood cell levels of reduced glutathione, but the products of oxidation and the mechanism of oxidation are more complex than those found in water alone. Chromium (VI) is thought to interact with DNA after first reacting with a reducing agent such as glutathione to form lower oxidation states of chromium. These examples illustrate the importance of oxidation-reduction reactions for toxic metals and metalloids.

T1 - Contaminant-Related Suppression of Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity and Antibody Responses in Harbor Seals Fed Herring from the Baltic Sea
AN - 14375319; 10497128
AB - Increased mortalities among marine mammal populations have been linked with viral infections resulting from contamination-caused immunosuppression. A 2.5 year study of this phenomenon was conducted using harbor seals fed herring from either the contaminated Baltic Sea or the clean Atlantic Ocean. Seals eating the clean fish were more able to develop an immunological response to ovalbumin as measured by a skin responses to this protein antigen. These results confirm the speculations that pollution may have been a root cause of the marine mammal mortalities along the coasts of Europe and North America.

T1 - A Technique to Expose Animals to Concentrated Fine Ambient Aerosols
AN - 14370618; 10497130
AB - An ambient particle concentrator appropriate for use in animal inhalation studies was developed and evaluated using the principle of virtual impactors to concentrate the ambient particles. This is achieved by pulling the particles through three virtual impactors, each of which contains most of the ambient fine mass in a bleed flow at 20% of the total entering flow. Indoor air samples were used as test aerosols. Fine mass and sulfate concentrations were compared to ambient levels using Harvard-Marple impactors. Each stage of the impactor increased particle concentration three times, for a total concentration factor of 25-30.

AN - 14369983; 10497127
AB - After crystalline silica was identified as a potential carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer in 1988, sand and other products containing this material have required labels indicating their contents. Although research on the risks of low exposure to crystalline silica is underway, it is considered of little value because of the difficulty in quantifying risks, and also because of the frequency with which this substance appears in everyday life. Better returns for public health will be achieved through the regulation of exposure in high-risk occupations, rather than further risk assessment research.

T1 - Strange Brew: Assessing Risk of Chemical Mixtures
AN - 14365369; 10497126
AB - Mixtures of chemicals occur throughout all environmental media, and pose a particular challenge to toxicologists tasked with assessing the risks from exposure to such combinations. Most of the existent standards are for individual compounds, and future research is dedicated to this area. This is attributed to the complexity of analyzing compounds and their multiple mechanisms which may function simultaneously. Out of the confusion of approaches to this topic, three classes of joint interaction have been suggested: additivity, synergy, and antagonism. Within these interactions it is possible to overestimate, underestimate, or correctly estimate the compound interactions. Some of the topics integral to research in this field are toxicokinetics and the interactive mechanisms, extrapolation from other species, and research in epidemiology.

T1 - Decline in Liver Neoplasms in Wild Brown Bullhead Catfish after Coking Plant Closes and Environmental PAHs Plummet
AN - 14356910; 10497129
AB - Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHS), linked with liver neoplasms in fish inhabiting contaminated waterways, were monitored for a 2-yr period in the sediments and catfish tissues from the Black River in Ohio. During this period they declined by 65% in the sediments and 93% in the tissues, with PAHs in the sediments declining by a further 99% by 1987. This trend followed the closing of a coking plant in 1983. The frequency of liver cancer in this species has declined to about 25% of the previous frequency. These statistics confirm a causal relationship between PAH exposure and liver cancer. The importance of remediation following the elimination of the source of the pollutant is affirmed.

AN - 62740955; ED381661
AB - This document records the oral and written testimony concerning the Job Opportunities and Basic Skills (JOBS) Act from a panel of witnesses representing health and human services and welfare departments in New Jersey, California, Wisconsin, and of program heads for employment development in those states. The witnesses, although having a variety of viewpoints, agreed generally on the following: an emphasis on job placement is necessary to reduce welfare rolls; short-term training should be given; and services such as child care are needed if parents are to obtain and keep jobs. The participants also expressed a need for states to have more flexibility and less paperwork in their JOBS programs so that they could respond to local conditions. Some panelists were more optimistic than others that welfare recipients could be phased off welfare rolls and into work within 2 years, as called for in recent proposals. (KC)

T1 - The Federal Direct Student Loan Program. CRS Report for Congress.
AN - 62738706; ED378875
AB - This report discusses the establishment and operation of the Federal Direct Student Loan Program (DL), enacted by Congress in 1993 to partially replace the existing federal guaranteed student loan programs with a single program that would make loans directly to postsecondary students through their schools. The DL program will be phased in over a 5-year period so that it will originate at least 60 percent of all new federal loans to students during the 1998-99 academic year. The new DL program includes four different repayment plans: standard, graduated, extended, and income-contingent. The development of the income-contingent plan was particularly controversial, since it was estimated that 52 percent of borrowers would be subject to negative amortization at some time during the loan life, increasing their debt. Other concerns about the DL program include its impact on the general availability of loan aid for students, the ability of the U.S. Department of Education to administer the program, and the program costs.

T1 - Notes on Politeness in American-Romanian: Language Attitudes
AN - 85680039; 9905270
AB - Attitudes toward American politeness customs, particularly the polite use of language, are recorded from two groups of Romanian immigrants: an early wave arriving between 1880 & 1914, & a later emigration over the last five decades. In the first group, which consisted mostly of underprivileged laborers from a rural background, wonder is expressed over relative equality in comparison with socially stratified practices in Romania. The second group, however, is primarily professional & educated & tends to express disdain for perceived lack of respect, unnecessary formalities, & insincerity on the part of Americans. It is concluded that politeness research must include differences in orientation as opposed to degrees of politeness. J. Hitchcock

T1 - COMMONALITIES IN TOUCH, HEARING, VISION AND TASTE
AN - 85288953; cs-266765
AB - Though specialized to process particular kinds of stimulus energies and information, different sense modalities also share important principles of information processing. Understanding similarities and common principles, and the underlying mechanisms, forms this project's long-range goal. The present proposal brings techniques of human psychophysical measurement to bear on two topics: intensity summation and selective attention. The characteristics of summation, which is found in most if not all modalities, may not be fixed but depend on properties of stimulation: The quantitative rules governing, for example, interaural loudness summation can depend on the stimulus range. Using methods of intensity scaling, studies will determine whether stimulus range also modifies intensity summation in touch perception (e.g., summation of two frequency components of vibratory stimuli) and chemosensation (summation of gustatory and olfactory components in 'flavors'); studies using intensity-comparison will seek to confirm these effects. Other studies will determine whether related changes take place in the discriminability of pairs of stimuli. The second main topic concerns the role of attention in selective processing of stimuli and stimulus dimensions. Focusing attention in hearing on a single frequency leads to depressed sensitivity to other, distant signal frequencies, thereby revealing the presence of individual channels ('attention bands'). Using detection and discrimination methods, studies will determine how similar selective processing characterizes touch, taste, and olfactory perception, evaluating attention bands for different qualities (e.g., different tastes), different spatial locations (e.g., tactile stimulation of different fingers), and different modalities (e.g., separate bands for olfactory and gustatory components in flavors). Related studies will determine how information from different channels combines. Attention can also guide processing of particular dimensions. Processing of perceptual information is often most efficient when stimuli vary on perceptually-primary dimensions. Studies will use discrimination methods to measure the ability to attend selectively to differences in distance, time, and velocity of moving visual stimuli. Lastly, although different modalities (e.g., vision and hearing) are often considered independent, tasks requiring rapid processing reveal intermodal interactions in response speed. Studies will determine whether such interactions are also evident in unspeeded tasks, using discrimination methods that provide separate measures of perceptual sensitivity and response criterion. In sum, this research program should shed important light on the basic operations of human perceptual systems. Not only can this improve our understanding of normal sensory-perceptual functioning in healthy individuals, but ultimately also disorders in individuals with sensory impairments and attentional deficits.

AN - 85221593; pmid-7539228
AB - A survey of developmental dysgraphia in a population of 259 normal 13- and 14-year-old schoolchildren has been carried out. The neurological characteristics of handwriting impairments in the 25 children with the poorest handwriting skills are described. These data form the basis of a clinical classification of developmental dysgraphia. A group of simple clinical tests of handwriting and associated functions are offered for routine use. Because they are based on neurological principles relating to acquired dysgraphia, the classification and testing format may be used for correlation with neuro-imaging in research studies. More importantly, they may also facilitate both counselling and remediation for a particular child. The test battery could be modified for use in epidemiological surveys of neurodevelopmental disorders.

T1 - Toxicity to Microtox, micro-algae and duckweed of effluents from the Bai Bang paper company (BAPACO), a Vietnamese bleached kraft pulp and paper mill.
AN - 77083444; 15091474
AB - Toxicity of the combined effluent as well as effluents from different production units of BAPACO, a Vietnamese bleached kraft integrated pulp and paper mill, was studied using three ecotoxicological tests: Microtox, the micro-alga, Selenastrum capricornutum, and the duckweed, Lemna aequinoctialis. Physico-chemical characteristics of the effluents were also analyzed. Due to unstable operating conditions of the mill, a number of samples taken at different monitoring periods from each effluent were tested, in order to get statistically reliable ranges and averages of toxicity characteristics. For the mill combined effluent, it was found that the micro-algae were the most sensitive followed by Microtox bacteria, while duckweed was not sensitive. Microtox tests showed that the bleaching filtrate from the chlorination stage (C-stage) was the most toxic among all effluents in the mill. The combined effluent from the bleaching plant contributed the largest TEF (Toxicity Emission Factor) to the toxicity balance of the whole BAPACO combined effluent. A less-than-additive mode of toxicity was obtained. In spite of high pollution loads, e.g. BOD, COD, SS, to the Red River, the toxicity of the effluent was considered to be low. However, during periods of low river water sublethal toxic effects on the biota may be expected.

T1 - Improving Schools from the Bottom Up: From Effective Schools to Restructuring. Summary Volume.
AN - 62753623; ED384992
AB - This document presents findings from a congressionally mandated study of school-based reform, which developed in tandem with congressional interest in making the Chapter 2 program more focused on school-improvement efforts. Data were obtained from a survey of a nationally representative sample of 1,550 school districts; mail and telephone surveys of all state education agencies; and case studies of reform efforts in 5 states, 16 school districts, and 32 schools. Following the introductory chapter, the second chapter offers school portraits and survey data to describe the nature and extent of school-based reform. The third chapter describes how schools and local districts work together to support school-based reform. The fourth chapter describes the role of states and the federal government in facilitating and inhibiting school change. Promising school-based reform efforts occurred in schools that focused on the classroom (curriculum, teaching, and learning); developed a collaborative professional culture; and made maximum effort to develop professional capacities. Eleven exhibits and 11 figures are included. Contains 14 references. (LMI)

T1 - Performance of Bureau of Indian Affairs Off-Reservation Boarding Schools. Oversight Hearing To Review the Performance of Bureau of Indian Affairs Off-Reservation Boarding Schools. Hearing before the Committee on Indian Affairs. United States Senate, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session (June 10, 1994).
AN - 62748729; ED382428
AB - A Senate committee hearing received testimony about high dropout rates and other problems at seven off-reservation boarding schools operated by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) or by tribal groups under BIA contract. The schools are Pierre Indian Learning Center (South Dakota), Sequoyah Indian High School (Oklahoma), Wahpeton Indian School (North Dakota), Chemawa Indian School (Oregon), Flandreau Indian School (South Dakota), Riverside Indian School (Oklahoma), and Sherman Indian High School (California). Together, these seven schools enrolled 2,623 students at the start of the 1993-94 school year, but had only 1,557 students in attendance at the end of the year. In addition, persons associated with the schools had expressed concern that inadequate funding made it impossible for the schools to deal with rising numbers of court referred students and students with serious social and emotional problems. Testimony from BIA and Indian Health Service administrators, school administrators and board members, tribal leaders, and students discussed the feasibility of the therapeutic community school model, whether the model can be developed for implementation in off-reservation boarding schools, per-pupil funding at the seven schools compared to funding at comparable state residential institutions, needs for psychiatric and other mental health services, substance abuse, parent participation, school monitoring and evaluation procedures, and inadequate dormitories. An appendix of additional materials includes school mission statements, descriptions of service delivery models, a review of the Indian School Equalization Program (ISEP) suggesting that ISEP funding is inadequate, investigations of student criminal activities, profiles of student needs and problems, concept papers on the development of alternative schools, data on academic achievement and mental health indicators, federal boarding school evaluations, research reports on student tobacco use, and a summary of identified school strengths and needs based on correlates of effective schools.

T1 - Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act. Oversight Hearing on the Implementation of the Indian Self-Determination Act, and Development of Regulations Following Passage of the 1988 Amendments to the Act before the Subcommittee on Native American Affairs of the Committee on Natural Resources. House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session (July 29, 1994).
AN - 62745365; ED380256
AB - The Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act of 1975 aimed to maximize tribal participation in planning and administration of federal services and programs, and to reduce federal bureaucracy in those programs. Despite passage of the act, tribal attempts to assume operations of federal programs were hindered by increased federal bureaucracy and restrictive contracting regulations. The 1988 amendments to the act were intended to remove contracting barriers, and required the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Indian Health Service to develop regulations with the participation of tribes by October 1989. Despite the preparation of two sets of negotiated tribal-federal draft regulations between 1988 and 1990, the agencies shut down further tribal consultation from mid-1990 to early 1994. In January 1994, the agencies published proposed regulations that bore little resemblance to prior negotiated drafts, and that actually complicated and raised further barriers to the contracting process. With mounting frustration, the tribes unanimously denounced the proposed regulations and called for legislation that would supplant the regulatory process. Both the House and Senate have introduced amendments to make the act's key provisions self-implementing and to establish a model contract. This document contains testimony and written comments on the situation from representatives of the Department of the Interior and the Department of Health and Human Services, tribal leaders, and lawyers representing tribes and tribal organizations.

T1 - Implementation of the Educational Research, Development, Dissemination, and Improvement Act. Hearing before the Subcommittee on Select Education and Civil Rights of the Committee on Education and Labor. House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session (September 15, 1994).
AN - 62743517; ED381604
AB - The House Subcommittee met to consider the progress that had been made toward the implementation of the restructuring of the Office of Educational Research and Improvement (OERI) and the fulfillment of its original mission, the equalization of educational opportunities for disadvantaged children. A report on implementation efforts was presented by Sharon P. Robinson, Assistant Secretary of OERI. The passage of the Education Research, Development, Dissemination, and Improvement Act, Title IX of the Goals 2000 Educate America Act, reaffirms the Federal government's commitment to reform through research rather than ideology. Progress in making OERI a consumer-driven organization is detailed, with systemic change efforts listed chronologically. Among the most important of the challenges facing OERI is the construction of five new institutes for research and dissemination among which are the Office of Reform Assistance and Dissemination, and The National Library of Education. The remarks of Sharon Robinson were followed by discussion and the supporting statements by Edmund W. Gordon, James McPartland, and Beverly J. Walker. (SLD)

T1 - Model-Based Methods for Analysis of Data from 1990 NAEP Trial State Assessment. Research and Development Report.
AN - 62742984; ED380474
AB - Model-based methods for estimating the population mean in stratified clustered sampling are described. The importance of adjusting the weights is assessed by an approach considering the sampling variation of the adjusted weights and its (variance) components. The resulting estimators are more efficient than the jackknife estimators for a variety of datasets obtained from the 1990 Mathematics Trial State Assessment of the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). The methods can be extended to two-stage clustering. A general method for estimation of more complex population summaries, such as regression coefficients, is outlined. There are no distributional assumptions in model-based methods, apart from the normality of the sample means. Model-based methods use only the final adjusted weights; the replicate weights can be disposed of, thus radically reducing the size of the dataset and simplifying data handling procedures. The principal advantage of the model-based methods is in efficiency and small bias of the estimators of standard errors for the population mean. Contrary to theoretical claims, the NAEP operationally implemented jackknife estimator of the sampling variance is not unbiased. Eleven tables and 7 figures are included. (Contains 13 references.)

T1 - 1994 NAEP Reading: A First Look--Findings from the National Assessment of Educational Progress.
AN - 62740839; ED381749
AB - This report presents a first look at national and state-level findings of students' overall proficiency in the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) 1994 reading assessment for grades 4, 8, and 12 and provides comparisons with the performance of their 1992 counterparts. The first chapter introduces the report, discussing topics such as the NAEP, the national sample, the trial state assessment program, the proficiency scale, achievement levels, and cautions in interpretations. The second and third chapters present a first look at the average reading proficiency and the attainment of achievement levels by America's students, discussing average national reading proficiency and average reading proficiency by region and by major reporting subgroups (race/ethnicity, gender, parents' educational level, public and nonpublic schools, and cross-state proficiency findings). Major findings include: (1) the average reading proficiency of twelfth-grade students declined significantly from 1992 to 1994; (2) across all three grade levels, female students continued to display higher reading achievement than male students; (3) reading proficiency was higher on average for students whose parents had more education; and (4) students attending nonpublic schools displayed higher average reading proficiency than their counterparts attending public schools. Appendixes present national and state sample descriptions, reporting subgroup(s) definitions, comparisons among states based on average proficiency, cross-state proficiency and achievement level tabular summaries, and state contextual background factors.

T1 - Using HLM and NAEP Data To Explore School Correlates of 1990 Mathematics and Geometry Achievement in Grades 4, 8, and 12: Methodology and Results. Research and Development Report.
AN - 62739846; ED380475
AB - This report illustrates the use of hierarchical linear models (HLM) with National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) data to identify school and other correlates of student achievement. Based on an analysis of the 1990 NAEP mathematics achievement data for 4th, 8th, and 12th graders in public schools, this study is part of an ongoing exploratory effort to demonstrate the potential usefulness of HLM with NAEP data. The focus of the report is on the methodology of using HLM with NAEP data, and results of the study are presented as an illustration of the methodology. HLM accurately models the multilevel nature of the data and enables student-level outcomes such as gender and race/ethnicity to be predicted as a function of school-level factors. Several types of HLM analysis were conducted on 1990 NAEP data to predict achievement outcomes in mathematics and geometry, predicting average achievement between schools, the gender gap, and the race/ethnicity gap. The HLM methods worked well to explain variations in achievement but less well for the gender gap and race/ethnicity gaps. Results are discussed in the context of improving the usefulness of NAEP data. Data are presented in 66 tables, with 42 tables of supporting data in an appendix. (SLD)

T1 - Residence and Migration of First-Time Freshmen Enrolled in Higher Education Institutions: Fall 1992. E.D. TABS.
AN - 62738677; ED378891
AB - This report presents 10 tables of data on the residence and migration of first-time college freshmen in the fall of 1992 using data from the residency portion of the "Fall Enrollment" survey of the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). The data are presented by state, by control and level of institution, for all first-time freshmen, and separately for first-time freshmen who graduated from high school in the 12 months prior to the fall of 1992. The IPEDS residence report for fall 1992 accounted for 2.099 million first-time freshmen. Almost 350,000 of these freshmen (17 percent) migrated between states. Other highlights of the data include the following: (1) the percent of first-time freshmen who left their state to attend college varied considerably by state ranging from a low of 6.4 percent in Utah to a high of 52.9 percent in the District of Columbia; (2) in Rhode Island and Vermont over half the classes of first-time freshmen were from out of state; and (3) first-time freshmen who had graduated from high school in the 12 months prior to the fall of 1992 comprised only about 67 percent of the total class of first-time freshmen. Appendixes describe the survey and offer information on study methodology. (JB)

T1 - A Pilot Standard National Course Classification System for Secondary Education.
AN - 62738577; ED379358
AB - This publication is the culmination of a major effort to help establish a common terminology, descriptions, and coding structure for course information at the secondary level of education. There had previously been no standard system for collecting, maintaining, reporting, and exchanging comparable information about student course taking patterns. The system was derived using material from five states. Two other states (Virginia and South Dakota) were chosen to test the proposed system. Study staff considered all courses within the course catalogs of selected school systems in these states, but concentrated on the four major academic subject areas (English/language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies) and the three vocational subject areas with the largest enrollments (business and office occupations, vocational and home economics, and agricultural occupations). The proposed system contains 632 courses in 29 subject areas. Every course has a title, description, and basic course title code. Additional fields allow for more detailed information. Examples are given, and subject fields and codes are listed. Seventeen tables present coding information. Appendixes contain numeric and alphabetic lists of codes and titles, as well as a list of participating agencies. (SLD)

T1 - Private Schools in the United States: A Statistical Profile, 1990-91. Statistical Analysis Report.
AN - 62738543; ED379360
AB - This report is based on the Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS) of 1987-88 and 1990-91 and is designed to provide a broad picture of private schools in the United States. The SASS collects data on only a sample of private schools, but collects a much richer picture of each participating school than does the Private School Universe Survey, a supplement to the Common Core of Data. In 1990-91, the SASS found that there were approximately 24,690 private elementary and secondary schools in the United States, serving an estimated 4,673,878 students in kindergarten through grade 12. This suggests that nearly one-quarter of the schools in the nation are private, and that 1 out of every 10 students are in private schools. Findings from the SASS are presented in sections on: (1) characteristics of private schools as units; (2) characteristics of students; (3) characteristics of teachers and principals; (4) educational goals of teachers and principals, their perceptions of school climate, and rates of graduation and college attendance; and (5) descriptive profiles by religious or other affiliation. Ten figures and 44 figures present survey findings. Two appendixes contain tables of standard errors and technical notes. (Contains 31 references.) (SLD)

T1 - Report on Evaluation of Definitions Used in the Public Library Statistics Program. Technical Report.
AN - 62736847; ED378991
AB - This report reflects the results of an evaluation of the definitions used in the annual Public Library Statistics (PLS) program, a joint federal-state information collection project, and is intended to raise specific issues for discussion among the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), the Federal State Cooperative System (FSCS), and the states concerning these definitions. Definitions are given for four categories of variables for which statistics are collected: outlets, staff, collections, and services. The statistics for each variable measure the number of occurrences at the individual public library level, and permit aggregations at the state and national levels. Each subsection of variables contains: (1) the FSCS definition, including any prior changes that are useful in the definition's analysis; (2) the state definition and comparison to the FSCS definition; (3) data describing what the statistics indicate about how the definition is applied; and (4) issues describing any problems in the definition or its application. In addition, each subsection provides a brief background description for the general category, the variables, and the products or services the PLS census is attempting to measure. (Contains 66 references and 20 tables.) (MAS)

T1 - Use of Person-Fit Statistics in Reporting and Analyzing National Assessment of Educational Progress Results. Research and Development Report.
AN - 62736781; ED379346
AB - Fit statistics provide a direct measure of assessment accuracy by analyzing the fit of measurement models to an individual's (or group's) response pattern. Students that lose interest during the assessment, for example, will miss exercises that are within their abilities. Such students will respond correctly to some more difficult items and incorrectly to some less difficult items. Most assessment programs, including the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), currently either ignore such response anomalies or assume they do not exist. The use of a weighted-total-fit-mean-square as a measure of assessment accuracy was investigated using data from the 1990 and 1992 NAEP assessments. The distribution of fit across individuals was examined for fit and item-type differences, and the practical significance of this type of fit statistic was explored. It is concluded that this person-fit statistic has little to offer in the analysis of traditional NAEP data. Sixteen tables present analysis results. Appendix A contains 12 subscale tables, and Appendix B presents software routines. (Contains 62 references.) (SLD)

T1 - Projections of Education Statistics to 2005.
AN - 62736634; ED379347
AB - This edition, the 24th report in a series begun in 1964, provides revisions of projections shown in the previous year's report. It includes statistics on elementary and secondary schools and institutions of higher education at the national level, projecting figures for enrollment, graduates, classroom teachers, and expenditures to the year 2005. Projections reflect the 1990 census, with the incorporation of 1992 estimates and latest assumptions about fertility rate, net immigration, and mortality rate. A methodology section describes models and assumptions used to develop the national projections. They are based on an age-specific enrollment rate model, exponential smoothing models, and econometric models. Most projections show three alternatives, with the first set (middle alternative) expected to be the most likely projection and the low and high alternatives providing a reasonable range of outcomes. A chart provides a brief forecast summary. National enrollment in elementary, secondary, and higher education is predicted to increase over the period, as are numbers of graduates, earned degrees conferred, numbers of classroom teachers, and expenditures. State figures are expected to vary in the forecast period. Data is presented in 70 figures and 52 tables, with an additional 37 tables in four technical appendixes discussing methodology. The report includes a glossary of data and statistical terms. (SLD)

AN - 62733440; ED382813
AB - This document records the oral and written testimony of witnesses who testified at 2 days of U.S. Senate oversight hearings on Job Corps programs. Witnesses included several Senators who have been involved in Job Corps legislation since the program's beginning in 1968, Job Corps program completers and dropouts, and local officials in areas of Job Corps sites. According to their testimony, some Job Corps sites have lost the idealism that permeated their programs when they were formed and have become little more than reform schools. Some former participants complained about incidents of violence in the sites and of little learning taking place. Other program completers said that the Job Corps had been their salvation and was largely responsible for their success in life. Overall, the hearings provided support for the good that Job Corps had accomplished but revealed concern over reports of gangs and violence at the sites and a determination to reform a program that has had many successes over the years.

AN - 62659752; ED397064
AB - This handbook is a major effort to establish current and consistent terms, definitions, and classification codes to maintain, collect, report, and exchange comparable information about students. The selection of terms represents the best combined judgment of many individuals as to what data might be most useful for decision making about instruction and support services for students. The primary section of this handbook is the listing of terms and definitions. In addition, there are applications of the handbook including development of surveys and design of automated record systems. The handbook is not a data collection instrument, and does not reflect any type of federal data maintenance requirements. This "infobase" version of the handbook allows users to browse, search, annotate, print, and export information electronically. Installation instructions and a quick-look reference system for handbook use are included. (SLD)

T1 - School-Based Reform: Lessons from a National Study. A Guide for School Reform Teams.
AN - 62659428; ED395384
AB - This guidebook was designed to be used as a resource by teachers and school administrators interested in implementing school-based reforms. It provides examples of promising reform strategies and lessons learned from a national study of school-based reform. The congressionally mandated study of Effective Schools Programs was conducted by an independent firm for the United States Department of Education during the 1991-92 school year. Data were obtained through a mail survey of 1,550 school districts, mail and telephone surveys of administrators at all state education agencies, and case studies of reform efforts in 32 schools in 5 states. The states included California, Connecticut, Kentucky, South Dakota, and Washington. Following the introduction, the second section describes the lessons learned from the case studies. The successful examples of school-based reform shared a core set of characteristics: a clear focus on creating more challenging learning experiences for all students; a school culture in which teachers worked collaboratively and had a voice in decisions that directly affected their ability to improve classroom practice; and opportunities for teachers and administrators to gain knowledge and build their professional capacity. The third section provides more detailed examples of schools involved in promising reforms. The fourth section discusses what district staff can do to support school-based reform: (1) serve as an initial stimulus; (2) assemble resources; and (3) offer a broader professional forum. Contains an annotated list of research and how-to resources. (LMI)

T1 - Isolating the Barriers and Strategies for Prevention: A Kit about Violence and Women's Education for Adult Educators and Adult Learners.
AN - 62654935; ED396178
AB - This document, which is intended for adult educators, contains information learned during the course of pilot workshops on the connections between violence and women's education that were held in four areas of Canada (Pine Grove, Montreal, Toronto, and the Yukon). First, the pilot workshops and development/use of the document are discussed, and the activities and findings of each workshop are detailed. The barriers identified during the workshops are listed along with the various effects of violence that affect a woman's ability to learn, and selected groups of women who may face violence because of their life situation (disabled women, immigrant women, survivors of sexual abuse, and lesbians) are discussed. The personal experiences of nine women who have been victims of violence are related. The next section, which examines ways of creating a better learning environment, includes articles on the following topics: overcoming violence through writing; getting an education in prison; healing through adventure, reclaiming one's life after being victimized by violence; choosing a counselor, making learning safer and conducting a safety audit, and establishing relationships between students and teachers. Concluding the document are the following: workshop guidelines; woman's bill of rights; guide to survivor's language; and facts about abuse. Contains a list of 71 resources. (MN)

T1 - The National Education Goals Report, 1995. Volume One: National Data.
AN - 62641411; ED389098
AB - This document, one of four volumes comprising the 1995 Goals Report, is the fifth in a series of annual reports. This document provides in-depth information for on the progress toward the National Education Goals at the national level. The report is divided in sections pertaining to Goals 1-8. Each section discusses the Goal, identifies objectives, and presents a series of exhibits representing indicators for the national volume. Changes in progress are noted for the charts and sidebars highlight important information. The nation has made encouraging progress in mathematics achievement; prenatal care; and participation in Advanced Placement examinations in core areas such as English, mathematics, science, and history. Other areas, however, call for improvement. Data show that the United States has fallen behind in achieving the goals of adult literacy and lifelong learning and safe, disciplined, and alcohol- and drug-free schools. One essential step is for schools and families to form strong partnerships to improve education. The National Education Goals Panel's plans for supporting state and community development of academic standards and assessments are highlighted. Eighty-nine figures and a 1995 National Education Goals Report Questionnaire are included. Appendices contain technical notes and sources, acknowledgments, and a list of National Education Goals Panel staff members. (LMI)

United States Senate, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session (April 27 and May 25, 1995).
AN - 62638181; ED385782
AB - This document reports the oral and written testimony of witnesses who testified at oversight hearings on vocational education in the United States. The document also includes statements from other sources not present at the hearings. The testimony includes statements from U.S. Senators and Representatives, business leaders, and national and local leaders about the state of vocational education in the United States. The testimony was taken in connection with reauthorization legislation for the Carl D. Perkins Vocational Education Act. The witnesses stressed the increasing need for more, not less, vocational education, if the United States is to remain competitive in the world economy. They stressed the need for integrating academic and vocational education and making sure that every student had skills that could be used in the job market. They pointed to successes in Germany and Japan and to some local successes; however, the testimony showed that much remains to be done in improving vocational education and in improving how results are measured and programs are coordinated to reduce waste and duplication.

AN - 62637981; ED389097
AB - This document, one of four volumes comprising the 1995 Goals Report, is the fifth in a series of annual reports. This core report for 1995 focuses on approximately two dozen indicators that show the progress made by the United States toward the National Education Goals. National performance has improved in five areas, gotten worse in seven, and, in eight areas, no significant changes in national performance have occurred. Progress has occurred in the areas of student readiness and mathematics achievement; participation in Advanced Placement examinations such as English, mathematics, science, and history; and early prenatal care. However, there has been some decline in the area of providing safe environments conducive to learning. The report focuses on the essential role that families play in helping to achieve the National Education Goals and suggests ways in which schools can involve them in partnerships. State and national progress on the core indicators is presented in detail. Twenty-five figures and eight tables as well as the 1995 National Education Goals Report Questionnaire are included. Appendices contain technical notes and a list of the National Education Goals panel staff. (LMI)

T1 - The Gun Violence Prevention Act of 1994: Public Health and Child Safety. Hearing on S. 1882, A Bill To Amend Title 18, United States Code, To Promote the Safe Use of Guns and To Reduce Gun Violence before the Subcommittee on the Constitution of the Committee on the Judiciary. United States Senate, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session (March 23, 1994).
AN - 62632999; ED391862
AB - The first of several hearings on the Gun Violence Prevention Act of 1994 introduced and discussed the Act as comprehensive legislation to address gun violence through six discrete initiatives: (1) handgun licensing; (2) prohibition of firearms possession by persons convicted of violent misdemeanors; (3) regulation of gun dealers; (4) limitation of the secondary gun market; (5) requirement of gun safety courses; and (6) banning certain types of guns. Support for the bill was presented by the presiding senators, Paul Simon (Illinois) and Howard Metzenbaum (Ohio). Reservations about the necessity for the legislation, but not about the need for reduction in violence, were expressed by Senators Hank Brown (Colorado) and Orrin Hatch (Utah). A number of speakers supported the bill, with the Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders speaking first. Panel discussions with educators and physicians followed. The testimony of each witness is followed by his or her prepared statement. (SLD)

T1 - The Challenge of a Knowledge Society. A Philippine Plan of Action.
AN - 62632936; ED391873
AB - This volume explores the potentials of advanced technologies as they apply to education and training and looks at efforts to exploit these potentials in three areas: vocational-technical training, formal education, and corporate programs. An introduction, "The Age of Knowledge Work" (Emmanuel T. Velasco, Gayla C. Carreon), defines concepts--future work, knowledge workers, information superhighway, networks, interactive multimedia, and other terms that arise to describe rapid developments in the fields of information technology and electronic communications. It describes the changes that technology has wrought in the world of work and the effects that these have had on other areas. Chapter I presents a summary of the findings from surveys on the use of computer technology in the three sectors in the Philippines: "Using Computer Technology for Worker Education and Training (National Manpower and Youth Council Survey Results)"; "In Search of the Leading Edge in Formal Education (Philippine Association of Colleges and Schools of Business Survey Results)"; and "Computer-Based Training in Business and Industry (Philippine Society for Training and Development Survey Results)" Chapter II presents the sectoral action plans, as generated by groups involved in separate conferences of the three sectors. The three sections are as follows: "Using Computers as Skills Instructors: The Evolution of a Policy" (Rony V. Diaz); "Turning Classrooms into Interactive Networks" (Elizabeth S. Samia); and "Technologizing the Knowledge Worker" (Emmanuel T. Velasco). A conclusion, "A Policy Response to the Challenge: The Establishment of a Leading-Edge Educational Technology Center," provides a summary of a proposal to establish a national center to rationalize the adoption of leading-edge educational technologies. Appendixes include the following: House Bill No. 12328: An Act Creating the Leading-Edge Educational Technologies (LEET) Foundation, a congressional initiative with its basis in the proposal discussed in the conclusion; detailed results of the three surveys; a workplan for the establishment of the LEET Center; 25 endnotes; and author biographies. Contains 50 references. (YLB)

T1 - Maine Kids at Risk: Juvenile Violence and Crime. Hearing on Strategies To Combat Juvenile Violence and Crime in the State of Maine before the Subcommittee on Juvenile Justice of the Committee on the Judiciary. United States Senate, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session (Portland, ME, April 8, 1994).
AN - 62623112; ED389784
AB - Evidence was gathered from those involved with at-risk children and juvenile offenders in Maine on how the Federal Government can best help states and communities battle juvenile crime. The kinds of prevention and intervention programs that work were considered, with the allocation of public resources an underlying concern. Panels of educators, social service providers, youth workers, community representatives, and young people in the process of turning their lives around made it clear that simply holding youthful offenders accountable for crimes is not enough. Governments need to work to eliminate domestic violence, child abuse and neglect, and drug abuse. Programs must improve the self-esteem of young participants. Mothers and fathers must be held accountable for their children's well-being, and when they ask for help, they should receive it. Although the overall incidence of youth crime in Maine has remained relatively stable when compared to other parts of the country, there is widespread agreement that there has been a proliferation of juvenile crime. Lessons taught by the citizens of Maine have national implications. (SLD)

T1 - Layers of Decision: Linking Social Definitions of Corruption and Willingness to Take Action
AN - 60056818; 9609943
AB - A question survey of 1,300+ public sector employees (PSEs) in New South Wales, Australia, was undertaken to explore: (1) how & why PSEs define some behaviors as corrupt; (2) factors that may hinder PSEs in taking action about corruption that they may observe at work; & (3) the link between (1) & (2). The survey found that views about what constitutes corruption are diverse, which had a significant, though not exclusive, impact on the action respondents said they would take in response to workplace corruption. Other factors that impact on the stated decision not to take action about corruption are discussed, & some possible courses of action for addressing these factors suggested. 4 Tables, 2 Figures, 34 References.

T1 - Challenge of environmental problems in China and our response
AN - 27321409; 2001-80-004854 (CE); 0207179 (EN)
AB - For the past few years, environmental problems have become the most important topics on the agenda at international forums on politics, economics and science. Just like the other countries, China is exerting effort in protecting her environment. As a country with a huge population and a vast territory undergoing vigorous economic development, China still faces many severe challenges in the field of environmental protection. In order for the country to find the much needed solutions that ensure a healthy environment for the future generations, it should transform the technology driving the economy from primitive state to a progressive and modern state, commensurate with that of the most industrialized nations. Although there is a high price to pay to achieve this goal, it is worthwhile and necessary in order to save the fragile environment and protect the precious natural resources of the country.

T1 - Characterization of a Phosphate-Accumulator Mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana.
AN - 1859377110; 12228355
AB - We have characterized a novel mutation of Arabidopsis thaliana at a locus designated pho2. pho2 mutants accumulated up to 3-fold more total P in leaves, mostly as inorganic phosphate (Pi), than wild-type seedlings. In addition, we isolated a mutant (locus designated pho1-2, an allelle of pho1-1 described by Y. Poirier, S. Thoma, C. Somerville, J. Schiefelbein [1991] Plant Physiol 97: 1087-1093) with low Pi concentrations in leaves. When grown under high transpiration conditions, leaves of pho2 seedlings became severely P intoxicated, whereas shoots of pho1-2 mutants were P deficient and wild-type seedlings were normal. A pho1/pho2 double mutant resulting from a cross between the single mutants was identified in the F2 generation and shown to have a pho1 phenotype. Prior to the development of P toxicity symptoms, P was the only mineral nutrient whose concentration was greater in pho2 mutants than wild-type seedlings. Compared to wild-type, pho2 mutants had greater Pi concentrations in stems, siliques, and seeds, but roots of pho2 mutants had similar or lower Pi concentrations than either pho1 mutants or wild-type seedlings. We suggest that the pho2 mutation affects a function normally involved in regulating the concentration of Pi in shoots of Arabidopsis.

T1 - Role of blocked gap junctional intercellular communication in non-genotoxic carcinogenesis
AN - 17093469; 3901459
AB - Gap junctional intercellular communication mediates the transfer of small molecules from the cytoplasm of one cell to that of neighbouring cells. Connexins are the proteins that form the channels responsible for this type of communication. Aberrant expression and function of connexins are often found in cells exposed to tumor-promoting agents and during carcinogenesis, both in cell culture systems and in tissues freshly removed directly from patients and exposed animals. Transfection of connexin genes into tumorigenic cells often exerts negative growth control, suggesting that connexins act as a family of tumor-suppressor genes. Connexin gene mutations appear to be the cause of two human diseases, i.e. X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth syndrome and visceroatrial heterotaxia. Connexin genes are therefore important for the maintenance of homeostasis and thus their dysfunction could lead to various forms of disease.

T1 - Chemical and biological control of Rhizoctonia solani on potato seed tubers
AN - 17089645; 3896798
AB - Chemical and biological treatments for the control of tuber-borne inoculum of R. solani on potatoes were evaluated by testing the viability of sclerotes removed from treated tubers. This technique showed that most sclerotes adhering to the tuber surface were devitalised when tubers were dipped for 20 min in a 2% solution of formaldehyde. Dusting tubers with tolclofos-methyl, or spraying them with fenpiclonil or pencycuron, gave control equal to formaldehyde, whereas a sodium hypochlorite dip was ineffective. A spore suspension of Verticillium biguttatum applied to tubers as either a dip or a spray devitalised >90% of treated sclerotes, whereas similar treatments of other organisms such as Bacillus, Gliocladium, and Trichoderma were ineffective.

T1 - Settlement of Pinctada maxima (Jameson) and other bivalves on artificial collectors in the Timor Sea, Northern Australia
AN - 17089551; 3902398
AB - The type, abundance and growth of tropical bivalves that settled on artificial collectors in the Timor Sea off northern Australia was investigated. Collectors made of used monofilament net were set and retrieved over 5 periods between June 1993 and June 1994. A large number of bivalves were collected, encompassing 47 species from 14 families. Thirteen species from 6 families comprised over 90% of the total numbers, and included various species of commercial importance such as pearl oysters, fan shells and edible oysters. The silverlip pearl oyster, Pinctada maxima, was the most valuable of these and accounted for 2.4% total numbers. It had highest settlement rates during the wet season, between October to January, and a mean estimated growth rate of 5.8 mm/month. Settlement rates, examined for commonly collected species, tended to be highest during the wet season. Length-frequencies and growth rates of species with commercial potential are presented. Considering the number and type of species collected, there is potential for use of artificial collectors in tropical waters either for aquaculture or as a stock assessment tool.

T1 - Immunogenicity of the Shigella flexneri serotype Y (SFL 124) vaccine strain expressing cloned glucosyl transferase gene of converting bacteriophage SfX
AN - 17083584; 3889699
AB - The glucosyl transferase gene (gtr) from bacteriophage phage X (SfX) caused partial conversion of serotype Y (group antigen 3, 4) to X (group antigen 7, 8) when introduced into a candidate vaccine strain of Shigella flexneri serotype Y (SEL124). The gtr gene caused conversion of O-antigens but did not eliminate the adsorption of the corresponding phage SfX. The hybrid strain expressing both group antigens 7, 8 and 3, 4 showed 75% protection when immunized guinea pigs were challenged with a wild-type S. flexneri serotype X strain. No protection was observed against serotype Y challenge, although group antigen 3, 4 was detected in the LPS of the hybrid strain. This suggests the importance of O-antigen immunity in the host defense against shigellosis.

T1 - Residual strength approach to fatigue design and analysis
AN - 17068235; 3891385
AB - Standard fatigue design procedures are often simply based on the endurance of a component, that is the number of cycles to cause the component to fracture at the peak of the cyclic load. Therefore, these procedures are of little value in assessing the effect of overloads on the strength of structures that have been subjected to fatigue loads, or in assessing the performance of an existing structure prior to fracture through fatigue. A fatigue methodology is developed that is based on the residual strength of a component during cyclic loading and not on the endurance. Hence, this procedure can be used to assess the remaining strength and endurance of a structure that has been subjected to cyclic loads, the effect of remedial work on the structure, as well as provide a more accurate design procedure based on the true performance of the structure.

T1 - Soil water content under plants at high CO sub(2) concentration and interactions with the direct CO sub(2) effects: A species comparison
AN - 17053442; 3882165
AB - Wheat, maize and cotton, grown as spaced plants in large pots of soil, differed in the way high (2 x ambient) CO sub(2) concentration affected the time-course of soil water use. For wheat, the tendency to conserve water owing to reduction in stomatal conductance in high CO sub(2) was largely offset by the stimulation of leaf area development as the soil column dried. However, when the soil was maintained continuously wet, soil water conservation occurred because in the absence of water stress high CO sub(2) did not maintain a greater leaf area. For maize, which has little or no photosynthetic response to CO sub(2) concentrations above ambient but a strong stomatal response, water was conserved and the soil profile dried more slowly. Maize leaf area and dry matter growth increased in response to damper soil under high CO sub(2), despite no growth response to CO sub(2) in the absence of water stress. For cotton, which has a strong photosynthetic but weak stomatal response to CO sub(2), the soil column dried faster under high CO sub(2). Despite this drier soil, cotton still showed the greatest response to high CO sub(2) of leaf area and dry matter growth of the three species compared. Under wet soil conditions, cotton exhibited a very large leaf area response to CO sub(2) leading to much greater water use per plant. This contrasts with both wheat and maize which conserved water at high CO sub(2) when wet. Despite these contrasting transpiration and growth responses, all three species exhibited a relatively similar increase in water use efficiency under high CO sub(2) for both wet and dry conditions. It is concluded that the secondary effect of high CO sub(2) on soil water content exerts a strong confounding influence on growth responses to CO sub(2). In the longer term, the changed soil water status would influence hydrology, soil microbiology, nutrient relations and species composition. From indirect evidence it is proposed that the relative enhancement of growth owing to CO sub(2) enrichment is greater under drought conditions than in wet soil because of the effect of water deficit on the intercellular CO sub(2) concentration in the leaf, C sub(i). If water deficits cause C sub(i)/C sub(a) to decline then photosynthesis is operating in a more CO sub(2)-sensitive region of the CO sub(2) response curve.

T1 - Photosynthetic acclimation to elevated CO sub(2) in relation to biomass allocation in cotton
AN - 17052432; 3882132
AB - Biomass allocation to leaf tissues and photosynthetic acclimation to CO sub(2) by cotton were investigated in two experiments. Plants were grown at ambient and elevated CO sub(2) concentrations with growth restricting phosphorus supplies in both experiments and in root restricting pot volumes in the first experiment. In both experiments, elevated CO sub(2) concentrations decreased the maximum carboxylation rate (V sub(cmax)) and the CO sub(2) saturated rate of photosynthesis indicative of photosynthetic acclimation to elevated CO sub(2) concentrations. In the first experiment, the percentage reduction in V sub(cmax) under elevated CO sub(2) concentration was least at a P supply of 2.1 mg P plant super(-1), greatest at 6.1 mg P plant super(-1), but then decreased at 18.2 mg P plant super(-1). The greater acclimation at the middle P supply was associated with a higher ratio of leaf mass to plant mass (LMR) than in other treatments and the lesser acclimation at the highest P treatment coincided with a lower LMR. In the second experiment the reduction in V sub(cmax) at elevated CO sub(2) was less than in the first experiment but was also associated with a greater allocation of dry matter to leaf tissues during growth. In both experiments, V sub(cmax) was not correlated to the relative degree of biomass enhancement at elevated CO sub(2) nor with the degree of root growth restriction in small pots. These data support the hypothesis that acclimation of photosynthesis to elevated CO sub(2) concentrations is mediated by shifts in allocation between leaves and the rest of the plant, induced by environmental conditions during growth, such that carbohydrate supply remains in balance with the utilization capacity of sink tissues.

T1 - Carbon storage and productivity of a carbon dioxide enriched nitrogen limited grass sward after one year's growth
AN - 17041212; 3872379
AB - Determining the response of nitrogen restricted ecosystems to carbon dioxide enrichment is important in evaluating the role of the terrestrial biosphere in the unidentified sink in global carbon cycle models. Swards of the C3 grass Danthonia richardsonii (Cashmore) were established in large pots filled with a soil of low C and N content. The swards were continuously supplied with N at rates of 2, 6 and 18 g m super(-2) yr super(-1), and exposed to atmospheric CO sub(2) concentrations of either 357 or 712 mu L L super(-1). After 1 year's growth the high CO sub(2) treatments gained 19, 53 and 43% more C than at low CO sub(2) concentrations for the low, medium and high N treatments, respectively. This extra C gain was found in all plant and soil pools at the medium N level. At the low N level no extra C was found in the roots. At the high N level no extra carbon was found in the soil. Leaf area index was not affected by growth at high CO sub(2). The extra C was gained with the same total N investment in green leaf in the two lowest N treatments, and with 30% less N in green leaf at the highest N level. Growth at the high CO sub(2) concentration resulted in all C pools having a higher C:N ratio. Total water use was decreased and water use efficiency increased by growth at the high CO sub(2) concentration. It was noted that if these results were transferable to the field, and if the higher C:N ratios do not reduce longer term productivity by reducing N-mineralization rates, grasslands could form a substantial part of the unidentified C sink. The potential feedback of decreased N availability in the longer term is being investigated in the final 3 years of the experiment.

T1 - The amino acid and gross composition of marine diatoms potentially useful for mariculture
AN - 17035742; 3863658
AB - The amino acid and gross compositions of three benthic diatoms (Cylindrotheca fusiformis Reimann and Lewin, Navicula jeffreyi Hallegraeff et Burford and Nitzschia closterium (Ehr. W. Smith) and three chain-forming diatoms (Lauderia annulata Cleve, Skeletonema costatum (Greville) Cleve and a tropical Skeletonema sp. (CS-252)), were determined during late-logarithmic growth phase. Four of the six species were rich in protein, ranging from 31% (S. costatum) to 38% (N. closterium) of the dry weight, and contained 4.9 to 6.5% carbohydrate and 9.4 to 18% ash. The other two species, C. fusiformis and L. annulata contained only 16% protein but had nearly twice the total carbohydrate (11 to 12%) and two to three times the ash (29 to 35%) of the other species. All species contained a similar percentage of lipid (18 to 20%), and a high protein quality based on their total amino acid composition. The usefulness of these diatoms for mariculture will be determined by growth rates, gross composition and acceptability to the animal. N. closterium had the fastest growth rates of the benthic mat-forming diatoms, it was rich in protein, and it may be a good candidate for abalone culture. The two Skeletonema spp. had the fastest growth rates of the chain-forming diatoms, and are already widely used for prawn larval culture in Australia. Feeding trials are now necessary to confirm the high nutritional value of these diatom species for specific animals.

T1 - Toxicity of DTPA to Daphnia carinata as modified by oxygen stress and food limitation
AN - 17034237; 3863322
AB - First-instar Daphnia carinata were exposed to one of four or five sublethal concentrations of the industrial chelating agent diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) either alone, or in conjunction with, high (90-100%) or low (10-25%) oxygen saturation and high (2 x 10 super(5) cells/ml) or low (2 x 10 super(4) cells/ml) food conditions for 6 to 7 days, in a series of three experiments. Survival, growth, reproduction, and hemoglobin (Hb) content were assessed. Mortality increased significantly from 6.5 plus or minus 4.2 to 38.9 plus or minus 5.2%, and mean length was significantly reduced from 2.73 plus or minus 0.02 to 1.37 plus or minus 0.01 mm at 100 mg/liter DTPA in experiment 1. Mean length was also significantly reduced from 2.64 plus or minus 0.12 to 1.9 plus or minus 0.1 mm at 50 mg/liter DTPA in experiment 3. This was attributed to an indirect effect via the food supply in the third experiment. There was a significant decrease in the mean number of first-brood eggs at 10 mg/liter DTPA in all three experiment. Hemoglobin concentration was significantly increased under low oxygen conditions from 27.6 plus or minus 1.7 to 65.5 plus or minus 4.6 mg Hb/g Daphnia dry wt, and 23.0 plus or minus 1.8 to 49.4 plus or minus 3.5 mg Hb/g Daphnia dry wt in experiments 2 and 3, respectively. However, DTPA had no effect on hemoglobin concentration in any experiment. DTPA toxicity to D. carinata was not significantly altered by oxygen stress or food limitation and could not be attributed to an inhibition of Hb synthesis. Increased exposure times may result in further reproductive effects and also an indirect effect on hemoglobin concentration via the gradual depletion of iron stores. The no-observed effect concentration and the lowest observed effect concentration for D. carinata in this study were 1.0 and 10 mg/liter DTPA, respectively, based on reproduction, giving an estimated threshold concentration of 3.2 mg/liter DTPA.

AN - 17032738; 3871780
AB - The effects of the organochlorine pesticide endosulfan and ambient oxygen concentration on developing embryos of the crimson-spotted rainbowfish (Melanotaenia fluviatilis) were investigated. Significant numbers of deformed larvae were recorded at concentrations greater than or equal to 2.2 mu g/L and embryonic period was reduced at concentrations greater than or equal to 58.4 mu g/L. Embryos exposed to low oxygen concentrations (2-3 mg/L) showed higher mortality, significantly increased numbers of deformed larvae, and took longer to hatch than embryos cultured under high oxygen conditions (8-9 mg/L).

T1 - Modelling the field efficacy of a genetically engineered vaccine against the cattle tick, Boophilus microplus
AN - 17029185; 3865191
AB - The cattle tick Boophilus microplus Canestrini (Ixodidae) is an obligate parasite of bovines in the tropics. Vaccination against the tick, using concealed antigens, has previously been demonstrated to give partial protection which can vary under field conditions. In this paper computer modelling is used to evaluate the potential impact of the vaccine on populations of ticks on grazing cattle. The degree and duration of protection required to maintain tick numbers at acceptable levels is investigated. Results of the computer analyses have been used to guide the further development of the vaccine and to support an application for registration of the vaccine for control of the cattle tick in Australia. They demonstrate the contribution that modelling can make in evaluating the novel impacts that new technologies may have on the host-parasite relationship in different ecological environments.

T1 - A fermentation process for the improvement of soya sauce production
AN - 17029007; 3868856
AB - The production of good quality soya sauce involves the control of a number of critical factors during fermentation and processing. The traditional soya sauce production methods depended on practices handed down through the generations. Thus it is important for research to be carried out to establish scientific principles for the process in order to ensure uniform high quality products. This paper describes some of the research that have been conducted to establish processes that can be applied to the local soya sauce industry for upgrading of the traditional method. It concentrates on the production of a pure culture inoculum and its step-up process as well as the development and utilisation of a solid substrate fermentation chamber to ensure good koji production. A brief description of the liquid substrate fermentation and the subsequent processing steps to obtain a product with long shelf-life is also given.

T1 - Alcohol and hypertension
AN - 17027661; 3866117
AB - Regular alcohol consumption is a significant contributor to the prevalence of hypertension in drinking communities. The effect is additive to that of obesity and is partly reversible over 2-4 weeks with moderation of ethanol intake. In heavy drinkers acute alcohol withdrawal may lead to more blood pressure elevation following an initial depressor response. Heavy drinking is also associated with an increased risk of haemorrhagic stroke and cardiomyopathy. Lighter drinking habits appear to offer significant protection against ischaemic heart deaths and ischaemic strokes. Antihypertensive drug treatment for alcohol related hypertension may mask some of the adverse cardiovascular effects of alcohol. Arguments as to whether alcohol is a cause of essential hypertension are tautological, given the many reversible lifestyle factors now known to contribute to the rise in blood pressure with ageing.

T1 - Whole plant respiration and photosynthesis of wheat under increased CO sub(2) concentration and temperature: Long-term vs. short-term distinctions for modelling
AN - 17027414; 3866330
AB - Short- and long-term effects of elevated CO sub(2) concentration and temperature on whole plant respiratory relationships are examined for wheat grown at four constant temperatures and at two CO sub(2) concentrations. Whole plant CO sub(2) exchange was measured on a 24 h basis and measurement conditions varied both to observe short-term effects and to determine the growth respiration coefficient (r sub(g)), dry weight maintenance coefficient (r sub(m)), basal (i.e. dark acclimated) respiration coefficient (r sub(b)), and 24 h respiration:photosynthesis ratio (R:P). There was no response of r sub(b) to short-term variation in CO sub(2) concentration. For plants with adequate N-supply, r sub(g) was unaffected by the growth-CO sub(2) despite a 10% reduction in the plant's N concentration (%N). However, r sub(m) was decreased 13%, and r sub(b) was decreased 20% by growth in elevated CO sub(2) concentration relative to ambient. Nevertheless, R:P was not affected by growth in elevated CO sub(2). Whole plant respiration responded to short-term variation of plus or minus 5 degree C around the growth temperature with low sensitivity (Q sub(10) = 1.8 at 15 degree C, 1.3 at 30 degree C). The shape of the response of whole plant respiration to growth temperature was different from that of the short term response, being a slanted S-shape declining between 25 and 30 degree C. While r sub(m) increased, r sub(g) decreased when growth temperature increased between 15 and 20 degree C. Above 20 degree C r sub(m) became temperature insensitive while r sub(g) increased with growth temperature. Despite these complex component responses, R:P increased only from 0.40 to 0.43 between 15 degree and 30 degree C growth temperatures. Giving the plants a step increase in temperature caused a transient increase in R:P which recovered to the pre-transient value in 3 days. It is concluded that use of a constant R:P with respect to average temperature and CO sub(2) concentration may be a more simple and accurate way to model the responses of wheat crop respiration to 'climate change' than the more complex and mechanistically dubious functional analysis into growth and maintenance components.

T1 - Application of economic and regulatory instruments for environmental management in Asian industrializing countries
AN - 17025131; 3861761
AB - This article analyses the role of economic and regulatory instruments in environmental management practices in Asian industrializing countries. Based on an assessment of the effectiveness of the application of command-and-control instruments in these countries, it argues for the adoption of market-based economic instruments as complementary tools for environmental protection in the current Asian context of rapid industrialization, growing decentralization, and emerging economic and financial systems.

T1 - Electrochemical precipitation of chromium (Cr super(6+)) from an electroplating wastewater
AN - 17024931; 3866770
AB - This research was conducted in the laboratory to investigate an alternative of Cr removal from an electroplating wastewater using the electrochemical precipitation (ECP) process. The ECP unit consisted of an electrolytic cell made of two steel plates representing anode and cathode. The DC power source applied to the ECP unit had current (I) and electrical potential (E) of 3-6 A and 30-75 V, respectively. Electroplating wastewater used in the experiments contained Cr super(6+) in the range of 215-3860 mg/l, and the pH was 1.5. The parameters varied during the ECP experiments were: E, hydraulic retention time (HRT), Cr super(6+) concentration, conductivity and initial pH. The optimum ECP conditions found were electrical potential, 75 V; current, 4.8 A; HRT, 50 min; initial pH, above 3.2. Under these conditions, the Cr super(6+) concentrations remaining in the effluent were less than 0.2 mg/l. Sludge produced in the ECP unit had a sludge volume index (SVI) of 60-80, an indication of sludge settleability. X-ray fluorescence analysis of the ECP sludge revealed formation of Fe sub(2)O sub(3) and FeCr sub(2)O sub(4) as the main products. Power consumption of the ECP unit was found to be in the range of 14.7-20 kWh/m super(3) of wastewater. The economics of the ECP process was evaluated and compared with some conventional treatment processes for Cr removal.

T1 - Photocatalytic mineralisation of perchloroethylene using titanium dioxide
AN - 17024069; 3866760
AB - The photocatalytic mineralisation of perchloroethylene (PCE) is demonstrated mainly in terms of CO sub(2) formation to investigate the effects of various factors such as dissolved oxygen (DO), titanium dioxide semiconductor (TiO sub(2)) catalyst dosage, PCE concentration and pH on PCE photocatalysis. PCE was rapidly adsorbed onto the TiO sub(2) particles followed by its gradual degradation, and CO sub(2) production started after a short lag time that corresponded to the adsorption phase. The rate of CO sub(2) formation increased with increasing DO, TiO sub(2) dosage and PCE concentration. There was no significant effect of initial pH on the CO sub(2) production rate over a wide pH range. The dependence of the CO sub(2) formation on PCE concentration was found to obey the Langmuir-Hinshelwood model. No intermediates were detected during PCE degradation and PCE degradation followed a first-order reaction.

T1 - Late Quaternary history of Henderson Island, Pitcairn Group
AN - 17022991; 3859653
AB - Henderson Island is an emergent limestone island. It rises to 33.5 m above modern sea-level (MSL) from a sea-floor depth of about 3,500 m and conforms to the pattern of an elevated atoll, although no field evidence was found pertaining to the pre-atoll volcanic history of the island. The emergence of this coral atoll can be explained by lithospheric flexure processes subsequent to the emplacement of the Pitcairn Island volcano, built by two phases of volcanism (estimated at 855 and 540 kyr by K-Ar dating). U-Th dates obtained from Henderson Island indicate that the majority of the presently visible fossil corals have an age between 404-225 kyr. Henderson Island first became emergent above MSL when sea level dropped subsequent to 380 kyr, as the period 440-380 is thought to have been characterized by sea level at least several metres above MSL in the Central Pacific. As a result Henderson Island would have become subaerially exposed from 380 kyr onwards. The uplift rate of Henderson Island is approximately 0.093-0.10 mm/yr indicating that flexure-induced uplift component above MSL commenced between 360-335 kyr, 500 kyr after the initial, and 190 kyr after the last phase of construction of the Pitcairn volcano. The time-lag following the loading of the Pitcairn volcano and the present continuation of uplift on Henderson support the theory that the lithosphere behaves in a visco-elastic manner. Field relations and U-Th dates indicate three main periods of reef development: (1) A prolific reef-building period (440-380 kyr [Unit 1] and 330-300 kyr [Units 2 & 3]) dominated by large, stout branching coral colonies: (2) A shorter period of reef growth (285-275 kyr [Unit 4]) dominated by well-formed large in situ coral colonies and Tridacna maxima; (3) A less prolific period of reef growth (230-215 kyr [Unit 5]) dominated by platy corals enveloping the previous lithologies below 19.6 m. The absence of dateable material from the last interglacial, oxygen isotope substage 5.5 (= 5e) at Henderson Island is in marked contrast to the Late Pleistocene reefs in the southern Cook Islands where reefs of substage 5.5 age skirt older carbonate complexes.

T1 - The genetic basis of developmental stability. II. Asymmetry of extreme phenotypes revisited
AN - 17022916; 3860401
AB - Soule and Cuzin-Roudy proposed that individuals lying in the extremes of the phenotypic distribution for certain characters (complex characters with high heritability) will be developmentally more unstable for such characters than individuals in the center of the distribution. This result was interpreted as occurring because of greater levels of homozygosity in extreme individuals for a given character than in modal individuals. Potentially confusing mathematical procedures used in their original study led to a reexamination of this "outgroup" effect utilizing existing data sets from four insect species. Although results confirm the presence of a significant outgroup effect for some characters and some species, the basis of the phenomenon is reinterpreted in terms of a fitness-dependent character-specific model of stability.

T1 - Effects of cyclosporin A on bilirubin uptake by isolated rat and human hepatocytes
AN - 17021938; 3860827
AB - Several studies have reported that cyclosporin A (CsA) causes elevated serum bilirubin and bile acid levels, suggesting hepatobiliary dysfunction. This study examines the effects of CsA on the uptake of radiolabelled bilirubin by rat and human hepatocyte suspensions. The initial uptake rates of [ super(3)H]bilirubin, over a concentration range of 0.05 to 2.0 mu M, were determined in isolated hepatocytes that were preincubated with or without CsA. A saturable process for uptake of bilirubin was observed and kinetic constants calculated. Isolated human hepatocytes showed bilirubin uptake rates similar to those of rodent cells. CsA inhibited bilirubin uptake by both rat and human isolated hepatocytes. The apparent inhibition constants for the effect of CsA on bilirubin uptake were 39 and 26 mu M, for rat and human hepatocytes, respectively. This inhibitory effect was evident at a dose of 1 mu M, which is similar to CsA blood levels seen in those cases in which hyperbilirubinaemia has been reported. However, hepatocytes isolated from rats administered CsA (10 mg/kg/day ip, in Cremophore, for 5 days) exhibited uptake rates similar to those of cells isolated from control animals treated with only the Cremophore vehicle. Overall, the data are consistent with a receptor-mediated uptake of bilirubin by hepatocytes from rats and humans. The inhibition of bilirubin uptake by CsA may explain, at least in part, the hyperbilirubinaemia observed clinically.

T1 - Monoclonal antibodies specific for the bundle-forming pilus of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli
AN - 17020990; 3865555
AB - The bundle-forming pilus (BFP) produced by enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is associated with the presence of a large EPEC adherence factor plasmid and the formation of localized adherence clusters on tissue culture cells. Three mouse monoclonal antibodies (ICA2, ICA3, and ICA4) were produced against BFP purified from EPEC B171 (O0111:NM). These monoclonal antibodies reacted in immunoblots with different epitopes of the 19.5-kDa bundlin subunit of BFP of heterologous EPEC. These reagents could serve as diagnostic tools for the identification of EPEC as well as for studying the role of BfpA in the interaction of EPEC with eukaryotic cells.

T1 - Replication of Heliothis armigera entomopoxvirus in vitro
AN - 17020286; 3862490
AB - An entomopoxvirus which replicates in Helicoverpa armigera larvae has been adapted to grow in cultured insect cell lines. The virus multiplies in cell lines derived from Helicoverpa zea, Spodoptera frugiperda, Trichoplusia ni, and Plutella xylostella. Twenty-nine clonal lines derived from the established H. zea cell line BCIRL-Hz-AM1 showed differences in susceptibility to infection. Serological assays revealed qualitative and quantitative variation in HaEPV replication and accumulation in different clonal lines and associated culture media. High-level nonlytic replication of the virus was observed in two clonal H. zea lines.

T1 - Effects of storage and processing on the ascorbic acid content of concentrates prepared from Chaetoceros calcitrans
AN - 17019833; 3859852
AB - Microalgae concentrates, prepared by centrifuging axenic (bacteria-free) cultures of Chaetoceros calcitrans (Paulsen) Takano, were processed and stored under different experimental conditions. The content of ascorbic acid was examined in the concentrates, to assess potential changes in their nutritional properties. In algae pastes stored at 4 degree C, it reduced by 29% after 4 weeks storage. As most of the ascorbic acid was retained intracellularly (92%) after resuspension, most of the cells had remained intact. In frozen and dried paste preparations, the losses of ascorbic acid ranged from minor (11% after liquid nitrogen storage for 4 weeks) to major ( greater than or equal to 94% after drying at 100 degree C for 2 h or at 60 degree C overnight). However, most of the remaining ascorbic acid (>85%) in these preparations was rapidly leached from cells upon resuspension. Therefore, pastes stored at 4 degree C may have the best potential as an 'off-the-shelf' microalgal food product for mariculture. Pastes should now be assessed in animal feeding trials, before being recommended for widespread use in the industry.

T1 - The ade6 gene of the fission yeast as a target for antisense and ribozyme RNA-mediated suppression
AN - 17018451; 3854401
AB - A genetic system for the analysis of antisense and ribozyme mechanisms is a much needed experimental tool, and yeast represent a favorable organism on which to base such a system. We have shown previously that the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe has potential to satisfy the requirements of such a system. This report describes experiments designed to determine if antisense and ribozyme RNA-mediated gene suppression will be generally applicable to other genes in S. pombe. Antisense and ribozyme RNAs designed to suppress the ade6 gene were expressed at high levels from episomal expression vectors. The ade6 gene was chosen as a target as mutations within the gene confer adenine auxotrophy and a red colony phenotype, and it was expected that antisense or ribozyme RNA-mediated mutant phenocopies would exhibit the same readily detectable phenotype. No phenotypic indication of ade6 suppression was detected in transformed yeast, and ade6 target mRNA was analyzed by primer extension and Northern analysis. Initially, conflicting results were obtained from these techniques, which were determined to be due to duplex formation between antisense and target RNA in vitro. No detectable reduction in the ade6 mRNA levels was found, and it was concluded that the gene was not suppressed by the antisense or ribozyme RNAs tested. These results confirm that in S. pombe as with other organisms, the susceptibility of genes to RNA-mediated suppression may be gene specific and that design of antisense and ribozyme genes will be an empirical process.

T1 - Temporal and spatial changes in a metapopulation of the rust pathogen Triphragmium ulmariae and its host, Filipendula ulmaria
AN - 17015028; 3857417
AB - The numerical dynamics of a rust disease caused by the pathogen Triphragmium ulmariae was studied in a metapopulation of 129 discrete populations of the host plant Filipendula ulmaria. Over the four years 1990-1993, 37% of the populations were consistently infected by the pathogen while 43% were always healthy. In the remaining 20% of populations, the presence of disease fluctuated from year-to-year. In each of the four years the incidence of disease was strongly positively correlated with the logarithm of host population size (P < 0.001). Disease incidence was also weakly affected by the type of shore on which host populations grew but not by their degree of exposure. The severity of disease occurring in infected populations was weakly positively correlated with the logarithm of population size (P < 0.05). However, the relationship between the density of individuals within populations and disease prevalence showed no density-dependence. The distribution of disease among populations of the metapopulation had a significant spatial component in two of the years, with infected populations being closer together than would be expected by chance.

T1 - A simple calibrated model of Amazon rainforest productivity based on leaf biochemical properties
AN - 17012293; 3845781
AB - A simple 'big leaf' ecosystem gas exchange model was developed, using eddy covariance data collected at an undisturbed tropical rainforest in south-western Amazonia (Brazil). The model used mechanistic equations of canopy biochemistry combined with an empirical stomatal model describing responses to light, temperature and humidity. After calibration, the model was driven using hourly data from a weather station at the top of the tower at the measurement site, yielding an estimate of gross primary productivity (annual photosynthesis) in 1992/1993 of about 200 mol C m super(-2) year super(-1). Although incoming photon flux density emerged as the major control on photosynthesis in this forest, at a given PAR CO sub(2) assimilation rates were higher in the mornings than in the afternoons. This was attributable to stomatal closure in the afternoon in response to increasing canopy-to-air vapour pressure differences. Although most morning gas exchange was clearly limited by the rate of electron transport, afternoon gas exchange was generally observed to be very nearly co-limited by both Rubisco activity (V sub(max)) and electron transport rate. The sensitivity of the model to changes in nitrogen allocation showed that the modelled ratio of V sub(max) to electron transport (J sub(max)) served nearly to maximize the annual carbon gain, and indeed, would have resulted in almost maximum annual carbon gain at the pre-industrial revolution atmospheric CO sub(2) concentration of 27 Pa. Modelled gross primary productivity (GPP) was somewhat lower at 27 Pa, being about 160 mol C m super(-2) year super(-1). The model suggests that, in the absence of any negative feedbacks on GPP, future higher concentrations of atmospheric CO sub(2) will continue to increase the GPP of this rainforest, up to about 230 mol C m super(-2) year super(-1) at 70 Pa.

T1 - Differentiation of Rhizobium strains using the polymerase chain reaction with random and directed primers
AN - 17010831; 3847674
AB - Total genomic DNA isolated from Rhizobium spp was analysed by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in conjunction with either arbitrary oligonucleotide primers or a 20-base oligonucleotide primer corresponding to a conserved nif gene promoter region. The amplified fragment length polymorphisms (amplification profiles) generated by the 2 arbitrary primers (RPO4 and RPO5), effectively differentiated a diverse collection of Rhizobium meliloti, R. leguminosarum bv. trifolii and R. l. bv. viciae strains. The nif-directed primer (RPO1) was also highly discriminatory on Rhizobium DNA and generated unique amplification profiles for each strain. For selected strains, reproducible amplification profiles were obtained using a variety of DNA sources, and these were achievable over a 125-fold range in template concentration. Amplification profiles generated by the primers RPO5 and RPO1 were shown to be temperature dependant, with the RPO1 primer capable of generating amplification profiles at annealing temperatures up to 65 degree C. Reproducible amplification profiles were generated from either purified total genomic DNA or from template DNA present in freeze-thaw bacterial cell lysates. Moreover, the RPO1 primer was used to positively identify specific R.l. bv. trifolii strains directly in crude extracts prepared from squashed clover-root nodules. The significance of these results is discussed in relation to the development of strategies for using PCR-based methodologies in Rhizobium ecological studies.

T1 - Testing the effect of ecosystem composition/structure on its functioning
AN - 17009731; 3853327
AB - Biodiversity can be divided into three components: composition, structure and function. A major challenge for ecologists is to quantify to what extent ecosystem functioning is affected by a change in ecosystem composition or structure. The limitations of 'natural experiments', microcosms, retrospective studies and modelling are noted. An appropriate research design requires monitoring replicated field sites before and after manipulation, alongside equally replicated control sites. Manipulations involve deletion or addition of species or alteration of their abundances, and possible candidates include dominants, ecosystem switchers, and apparent redundant and keystone species. Suitable indices of ecosystem functioning are considered. Interaction effects are paramount in analysing the data with emphasis on the biological significance of any change in functioning detected. Suitable approaches include curve fitting and univariate and multivariate analyses of variance with their non-parametric equivalents. Ways to improve statistical power to avoid type II errors and deal with asymmetrical and poorly replicated designs are noted. The long term nature of this new task for ecology necessitates careful attention from the outset to clarifying the conceptual issues and choice of experimental design and suitable statistical analyses.

T1 - A review of the generic computer programs ALEX, RAMAS/space and VORTEX for modelling the viability of wildlife metapopulations
AN - 17009190; 3845827
AB - An assessment is presented of three computer packages, ALEX, RAMAS/space and VORTEX, that have been developed for analyses of metapopulation viability. Their usefulness was assessed in the context of the need to understand the assumptions and limitations of the programs. The study examined many attributes of these programs, ranging from availability and "user-friendliness" to the mathematical structure and procedures underpinning the sub-models. Key features and strengths of, and differences between, the various programs were highlighted. They are structured differently and vary in the way processes such as environmental and demographic variation are modelled. Many of these differences reflect what the architects of the programs consider to be the most important factors influencing the viability of metapopulations. These differences mean that the programs may produce different results even for investigations of the same populations. The selection of the most appropriate program should be based on a range of key criteria including: (1) the key question(s) and objectives of the study, and, (2) the strengths, limitations and assumptions that underpin the program and how these match the attributes, life history parameters and available data for the target species. The processes of data assembly, running the programs and reading the accompanying documentation give the use an improved understanding of population behaviour and dynamics. The wide variety of threatened taxa and diversity of conservation problems highlight the value of a broad range of sound, well-developed and relatively error-free packages for simulating metapopulation viability. However, in some cases it may be more appropriate to develop a new program that is tailored specifically to the requirements of a particular management problem.

T1 - Hapten synthesis and development of ELISAs for detection of endosulfan in water and soil
AN - 17008257; 3847834
AB - Two enzyme immunoassays, a laboratory assay based on microwell plates and a field test based on the use of small polystyrene tubes, have been developed for the detection of endosulfan residues in water and soil. To raise antibodies that are sensitive and selective for the toxic forms of endosulfan, three haptens were prepared. One hapten was prepared by derivatization of endosulfan diol , while the others used derivatives of a rigid five-membered ring adjacent to the bridged hexachlorocyclopentadiene (cyclodiene) ring. Different hapten combinations were used for immunogen and reporter enzyme conjugate in both the microwell and field assays. The optimized assays have detection limits of about 0.2 ppb endosulfan and detect in the range 0.2-10 ppb (0.2-20 ppb for field assay, without sample dilution). Water samples can be analyzed directly without solvent extraction or concentration, while soil samples are simply extracted with 90% methanol. The tests detect endosulfan sulfate with sensitivity similar to that for endosulfan but are 4-10 times less sensitive to endosulfan diol, and therefore the assays can potentially determine toxic compounds of endosulfan (endosulfan and endosulfan sulfate) from the total endosulfan residues present in the environment.

T1 - Deleterious effects of buthionine sulfoximine on cardiac function during continuous endotoxemia
AN - 17006753; 3842585
AB - Sepals has been associated with reversible cardiac injury. To determine whether this injury is mediated by generation of reactive oxidants, tissue glutathione (GSH)-the major intracellular antioxidant-was depleted before endotoxemia. Basal values of cardiac contractile function, perfusion, and cardiac output were measured 5-7 days postsurgery. Salmonella enteritidis endotoxin was continuously infused at 3 mu g/kg/hr iv via an osmotic pump (Alzet Corp). Endotoxemia significantly reduced myocardial glutathione content (394 plus or minus 46) to 206 plus or minus 9 mu g/g), indicating oxidant stress during endotoxemia. Buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) pretreatment significantly reduced cardiac glutathione in sham pigs from 394 plus or minus 46 to 199 plus or minus 26 mu g/g; and in endotoxemic pigs, BSO pretreatment significantly reduced cardiac glutathione to 106 plus or minus 18 mu g/g. Vehicle- and BSO-treated endotoxemic groups demonstrated similar cardiovascular responses to endotoxin challenge. Heart rate increases (122 plus or minus 15 to 140 plus or minus 17 bpm) and cardiac outputs decreases (1.50 plus or minus 0.24 to 1.11 plus or minus 0.35 l/min) were similar, indicating similar cardiovascular insults Induced by endotoxemia. Percent short axis shortening and end-systolic pressure-diameter relation (ESPDR) were significantly reduced in BSO pretreated compared with vehicle-treated endotoxemic pigs. Results support a conclusion that endotoxemia-induced cardiac injury is mediated, in part, by free radical injury. This conclusion is based upon the finding that endogenous myocardial glutathione was depleted by continuous endotoxin infusion and that prior depletion of myocardial glutathione by buthionine sulfoximine exacerbated cardiac injury.

T1 - Aeromonas cell line adhesion, surface structures and in vivo models of intestinal colonization
AN - 17006576; 3844459
AB - Aeromonas intestinal colonization is likely to be a complex process due to the many factors operating at mucosal surfaces. These may involved possible binding to and/or penetration of intestinal mucus of differing compositions in small and large intestine, binding to intestinal cells (small and large intestine) and possible binding to specialized cells (M cells) in the intestine. As for other enteropathogens, multiple adhesive mechanisms are likely, being advantageous especially in early stages of colonization. It may also be that adhesive mechanisms may vary for the different species of aeromonads. Studies of Aeromonas colonization have been hampered by the lack of a suitable and easy to use animal diarrhoeal model. Colonization models to date have included infant mice (death as an end-point, LD50) and clindamycin-treated rats (faecal shedding of Aeromonas) (6, 19). These are non-diarrhoeal models and suffer from a number of other disadvantages. Aeromonas intestinal colonization mechanisms have largely concentrated on epithelial cell lines, such as HEp-2 cells (derived from human laryngeal carcinoma) and intestinal cell lines such as INT407 (embryonic human intestinal cell line) and more recently Caco-2 cells (derived from human carcinoma of the colon and differentiating in culture to express characteristics of mature enterocytes).

T1 - Regional management modeling of a complex groundwater system for land subsidence control
AN - 17006511; 3842212
AB - The three-dimensional groundwater flow model MODFLOW and the one-dimensional consolidation model are coupled and calibrated to simulate the piezometric levels and land subsidence in the complex multi-aquifer system of the lower Central Plain of Thailand. The mathematical models are calibrated against historical data for the period 1955-1990 by considerably updating the system conditions used by previous studies. The aquifer system responses to different pumping schemes are then predicted for the period 1991-2010. The modeling procedure is carried out in close consultation with the Department of Mineral Resources (DMR), Royal Thai Government. The conclusions of the study will allow the DMR to develop and implement updated groundwater management policies, land subsidence control strategies and action programs in the Bangkok Metropolitan Area.

T1 - Evidence that the pertussis toxin-sensitive trimeric GTP-binding protein G sub(i2) is required for agonist- and store-activated Ca super(2+) inflow in hepatocytes
AN - 17006008; 3838629
AB - The role of a trimeric GTP-binding protein (G-protein) in the mechanism of vasopressin-dependent Ca super(2+) inflow in hepatocytes was investigated using both antibodies against the carboxyl termini of trimeric G-protein alpha subunits, and carboxyl-terminal alpha -subunit synthetic peptides. An anti-G sub(i1-2 alpha ) antibody and a G sub(i2 alpha ) peptide (G sub(i2 alpha ) Ile super(345)-Phe super(355)), but not a G sub(i3 alpha ) peptide (G sub(i3 alpha ) Ile super(344)-Phe super(354)), inhibited vasopressin- and thapsigargin stimulated Ca super(2+) inflow, had no effect on vasopressin-stimulated release of Ca super(2+) from intracellular stores, and used partial inhibition of thapsigargin-stimulated release of Ca super(2+) . An anti-G sub(q alpha ) antibody also inhibited vasopressin-stimulated Ca super(2+) inflow and partially inhibited vasopressin-induced release of Ca super(2+) from intracellular stores. Immunofluorescence measurements showed that G sub(i2 alpha ) is distributed throughout much of the interior of the hepatocyte as well as at the periphery of the cell. By contrast, G sub(q/11 alpha ) was found principally at the cell periphery. It is concluded that the trimeric G-protein, G sub(i2), is required for store-activated Ca super(2+) inflow in hepatocytes and acts between the release of Ca super(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum (presumably adjacent to the plasma membrane) and the receptor-activated Ca super(2+) channel protein(s) in the plasma membrane.

T1 - Persistence of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato in resolved erythema migrans lesions
AN - 17005408; 3848948
AB - Erythema migrans skin lesions resulting from a tick bite and infection with Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato eventually resolve, even without antibiotic therapy. The aim of the present study was to gauge the frequency of persistence of B. burgdorferi sensu lato in such lesions. Thus, the site of a previous lesion was biopsied and cultured in 48 patients: 39 with systemic or localized symptoms/signs and nine with no symptoms. B. burgdorferi sensu lato was isolated from biopsied skin from three symptomatic patients. Cultures of other tissues and fluids were negative. By genospecies-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and pulsed-field gel electrophoretic (PFGE) analysis, two isolates were classified as Borrelia afzelii. The remaining isolate was a member of an unusual group of strains that type as B. burgdorferi sensu stricto by genospecies PCR but possess an atypical PFGE profile. All three patients had a dramatic clinical response to antibiotic treatment. These findings demonstrate the capacity of viable B. burgdorferi sensu lato organisms to persist in clinically normal-appearing skin at the site of a resolved erythema migrans rash for periods ranging from 2 months to 3.5 years. This observation may provide new insight into the organisms' ability to evade the host's immune response.

T1 - Health risk assessment research: Implications for crystalline silica
AN - 17004082; 3840375
AB - While crystalline silica is thought to be responsible for certain respiratory illnesses, more research is needed to understand the nature of exposure. Much of the research necessary to evaluate the risk of the possible health effects to humans will be supported by the U.S. federal government, either specifically to elucidate the effects from exposure to crystalline silica or more generally to improve the process of risk assessment. In this context, the Office of Technology Assessment (OTA) examined the federal research activities to improve risk assessment, with a focus on current activities and the funding and management of that research. OTA defined risk assessment research as research designed to improve the process of health risk assessment or chemical-specific risk estimates. OTA found that risk assessment is not a national research priority. Environmental health research funding has not kept up with increases in health research or increases in environmental mandates that depend on that research for decision making. OTA finds the need to stress the interdependency and the linkage of the various research activities, risk assessment, and policy making. Finally, the exploration of many promising areas for research requires linkages not only among various scientific disciplines but also with decision makers.

T1 - Identification of an attractant for the caneborer Sesamia grisescens Walker (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
AN - 17001967; 3839383
AB - The composition of the sex pheromone of Sesamia grisescens was investigated using gas chromatography, electroantennograms, and field trapping. (Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate and (Z)-11-hexadecenol were identified in field tests as the major attractants. Trapping trials identified a 3:2 blend of these compounds as the most effective bait. Gas chromatography indicated the presence of hexadecyl acetate, (Z)-9-hexadecenyl acetate, (Z)-9-hexa-decenol, and (E)-11-hexadecenyl acetate in the pheromone gland, but these compounds had no significant effect on trap catches when added to the major components. Traps baited with the major components in a 1:1 ratio caught more male moths than traps baited with virgin females.

T1 - Floristic studies of diatom communities and habitat characteristics of some inland waters of Libya
AN - 17001573; 3837926
AB - Floristic studies of 17 diatom samples, collected from 6 various localities of Libya in the altitudinal range of 10 m (Dernah) to 697 m (Jadu), yielded a total of 71 taxa (17 are new records for Libya). Species richness was shown by Navicula (12 taxa) followed by Nitzachia (11 taxa). Diatom composition indicated that a sample from Ain-ul-Zarga, Jadu, had maximum number of taxa (26) with Cocconeis placenta var. euglypta dominating. Amphora veneta was well represented taxon in all the samples from Wadi el Majanin (near Aziziyah), whilst Nitzachia denticula dominated the sample from Dernah and Al-Khums. Two other samples from Al-Khums and a sample from Tripoli had, however, dominance of Navicula halophila. Variability in diatom species composition and their relative abundance was pronounced in the samples from Ghadamis. Thus, Stauroneis pachycephala dominated in Ain-ul-Taliat, followed by Diploneis ovalis as very common taxon, whilst Achnanthes brevipes was dominant in Ain-ul-Deban. Relatively diverse epiphytic diatom growth (11 taxa) was observed on filamentous algae in Ain-ul-Faras, Biddulphia regina dominating the community. The majority of taxa are shown to be alkaliphilous and indicative of oligohalobe status.

T1 - Quantification of the urea herbicide, diuron, in water by enzyme immunoassay
AN - 17000667; 3842400
AB - Urea herbicides are widely applied to soil for total vegetation control, or for pre- or post-emergence treatment in crops. Uses include pre-plant treatment of fields in cotton, sugar cane, and vegetables; removal of annual weeds in citrus orchards; and for treatment of irrigation canal, road, and railroad rights of way. Several of the compounds are highly persistent in the environment; this can lead to damage to crops if contaminated water is used for irrigation and increase the possibility of unacceptable residues in drinking water. Diuron and related urea herbicides have rather simple chemical structures, being characterised by a substituted aryl moiety on one of the nitrogen atoms of urea, while two methyl groups are attached to the other urea nitrogen. Diuron has been one of the major urea herbicides in use since the 1950s. After simazine, it is the second most persistent herbicide in common agricultural practice. Its persistence in soil is due to a combination of three properties - chemical stability, low aqueous solubility and strong adsorption to soil. Urea herbicides can be difficult to detect instrumentally at low part-per-billion levels. HPLC of water extracts following concentration can typically detect down to only 0.5-1 ppb in water. While more sensitive gas-liquid chromatography (GC) methods have been developed, the low volatility of these compounds can lead to decomposition by use of high column temperatures before separation. A number of ELISAs for phenylurea herbicides, differing in the sensitivity and specificity for diuron, have been developed. These used either rabbit antisera or mouse monoclonal antibodies. With the exception of analyses of groundwater samples using the monoclonal antibody assay these antibodies have only had limed application to water. We describe here an immunoassay for diuron based on use of sheep polyclonal antibodies to chlortoluron, and report the specificity and sensitivity properties of this assay and its application to detection of diuron in surface and sub-surface water.

T1 - Water relations of seedlings and adults of two fynbos Protea species in relation to their distribution patterns
AN - 17000610; 3844558
AB - To test whether differences in water relations were responsible for differences in species distributions across a landscape, we investigated patterns of water use (water potential, transpiration) of Protea susannae (associated with deep soil) and Protea compacta (associated with shallow soil) in the field (mature plants) and in the laboratory (seedlings). Adults of P. susannae had more extensive root systems and less conservative water use than those of P. compacta, suggesting greater access to water. However, no substantial differences in water potential or transpiration were found, for either species, between plants in deep and shallow soils. Germination, seedling growth and water relations were compared under controlled-environment conditions. Protea compacta seedlings were much larger with greater root depth and transpiration rate (per plant). The consequence of this was a drying out of the soil profile leading to greater dependence on the water table. Protea susannae seedlings were initially conservative in water use but, after 30 weeks, had a similar rate of transpiration (per plant) to P. compacta seedlings, despite a much smaller leaf area. Both species were found to experience switches in water-use strategy between seedling and adult stages: from conservative to water spending in P. susannae and from water spending to conservative in P. compacta. These switches, together with differences in water relations, particularly at the seedling stage, suggest that habitat specialization could play a critical role in determining these species distributions.

T1 - Enhancing legume N sub(2) fixation through plant and soil management
AN - 17000026; 3833395
AB - Atmospheric N sub(2) fixed symbiotically by associations between Rhizobium spp. and legumes represents a renewable source of N for agriculture. Contribution of legume N sub(2) fixation to the N-economy of any ecosystem is mediated by: (i) legume reliance upon N sub(2) fixation for growth, and (ii) the total amount of legume-N accumulated. Strategies that change the numbers of effective rhizobia present in soil, reduce the inhibitory effects of soil nitrate, or influence legume biomass all have potential to alter net inputs of fixed N. A range of management options can be applied to legumes growing in farming systems to manipulate N sub(2) fixation and improve the N benefits to agriculture and agroforestry.

T1 - Evaporation from fetch-limited water bodies
AN - 16999995; 3840384
AB - An analytic model to calculate evaporation from fetch-limited water bodies is described. By modifying the surface boundary condition to an analytic solution to the advection-diffusion equation for specific humidity in the air flow over a water body, we are able to solve for the entire specific humidity field q (x, z) from a single measurement of humidity, surface temperature, and wind speed. Comparisons of model predictions with measurements from Rushy Billabong, a small turbid lake, over a 146 day period show that on average the model underestimates evaporation rates by 12%. We believe that the evaporation shortfall is due to the downwind advection of heat within the billabong when the billabong is highly stratified in temperature. When the thermal stratification is weak, the advection of heat within the water column is less important and the model is an accurate predictor of evaporation.

T1 - Manipulation of rhizobia microflora for improving legume productivity and soil fertility: A critical assessment
AN - 16999803; 3833397
AB - Inputs of biologically fixed nitrogen derived from the symbiotic relationship between legumes and their root-nodule bacteria into terrestrial ecosystems amount to at least 70 million metric tons per year. It is obvious that this enormous quantity will need to be augmented as the world's population increases and as the natural resources that supply fertilizer nitrogen diminish. This objective will be achieved through the development of superior legume varieties, improvement in agronomic practice, and increased efficiency of the nitrogen fixation process itself by better management of the symbiotic relationship between plant and bacteria. This paper considers ways and means by which populations of root-nodule bacteria, established and introduced, can be manipulated ecologically, agronomically, edaphically and genetically to improve legume productivity and, as a consequence, soil fertility.

T1 - Significance of biofilm activity in facultative pond design and performance
AN - 16997529; 3841811
AB - Facultative ponds have found wide application in wastewater treatment as an economical systemwhere land area is available at reasonable cost. Different approaches are available in the literature for the design of facultative ponds. Most research have dealt with only suspended biomass and considered it as tie major form of biomass responsible for substrate removal. However, the side walls and bottom of the facultative pond can provide support for the growth of attached (biofilm) biomass which also aids in the degradation of organic matters (substrate). This study demonstrates the significance of biofilm biomass growing on the side walls and bottom of these ponds to substrate utilization. A model for substrate utilization in facultative ponds is proposed which encompasses first-order reactions of both suspended and biofilm biomass. The biofilm activity is described with a diffusion type model, while the dispersed flow model is used for the pond hydraulics to include a wide range of pond dimensions and operating conditions. The proposed model, validated with observed data of two full-scale facultative ponds located in Bangkok, Thailand, and in New Mexico, U.S.A., was able to predict effluent BOD sub(5) concentrations of these two ponds reasonably well.

T1 - Upgrading of facultative ponds to treat a toxic organic wastewater
AN - 16997475; 3841814
AB - This study investigated the efficiency and performance of attached-growth waste stabilization ponds (AGWSP) treating a high-strength phenolic wastewater. The experiments employed 4 laboratory-scale pond units installed with an artificial attached-growth media. A control pond unit without attached-growth media (or WSP) was run in parallel for data comparison. The experimental results revealed that the AGWSP units could remove about 99, 50, 45 and 28% of phenol when operated at influent phenol concentrations of 500, 1000, 1500 and 2000 mg/l (corresponding to organic loading rates (OLR) of 180, 360, 540 and 720 kg COD/(ha.day), respectively); these removal efficiencies were consistently higher than those observed in the WSP unit. The influent phenol concentrations of 1000-2000 mg/l resulted in some toxic effects and over loading to the pond system, causing the phenol removal efficiencies to decrease. The amount of phenol loss from the pond water through volatilization was found to be approximately 10%. A relationship between phenol removal rates (excluding volatilization) and phenol dosages to the AGWSP was developed. The superior performance of the AGWSP over the WSP appeared to be due to the biofilm biomass growing on the attached-growth media surface, resulting in increased potential biomass in the pond water.

T1 - Conservation of the grassy white box woodlands: Relative contributions of size and disturbance to floristic composition and diversity of remnants
AN - 16995086; 3843500
AB - Before European settlement, grassy white box woodlands were the dominant vegetation in the east of the wheat-sheep belt of south-eastern Australia. Tree clearing, cultivation and pasture improvement have led to fragmentation of this once relatively continuous ecosystem, leaving a series of remnants which themselves have been modified by livestock grazing. Little-modified remnants are extremely rare. We examined and compared the effects of fragmentation and disturbance on the understorey flora of woodland remnants, through a survey of remnants of varying size, grazing history and tree clearing. In accordance with fragmentation theory, species richness generally increased with remnant size, and, for little-grazed remnants, smaller remnants were more vulnerable to weed invasion. Similarly, tree clearing and grazing encouraged weed invasion and reduced native species richness. Evidence for increased total species richness at intermediate grazing levels, as predicted by the intermediate disturbance hypothesis, was equivocal. Remnant quality was more severely affected by grazing than by remnant size. All little-grazed remnants had lower exotic species abundance and similar or higher native species richness than grazed remnants, despite their extremely small sizes (< 6 ha). Further, small, little-grazed remnants maintained the general character of the pre-European woodland understorey, while grazing caused changes to the dominant species. Although generally small, the little-grazed remnants are the best representatives of the pre-European woodland understorey, and should be central to any conservation plan for the woodlands. Selected larger remnants are needed to complement these, however, to increase the total area of woodland conserved, and, because most little-grazed remnants are cleared, to represent the ecosystem in its original structural form. For the maintenance of native plant diversity and composition in little-grazed remnants, it is critical that livestock grazing continues to be excluded. For grazed remnants, maintenance of a site in its current state would allow continuation of past management, while restoration to a pre-European condition would require management directed towards weed removal, and could take advantage of the difference noted in the predominant life-cycle of native (perennial) versus exotic (annual or biennial) species.

T1 - Transfer of plasmid-borne resistance from a multiply-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolate, WBG1022
AN - 16993458; 3843676
AB - Staphylococcus aureus isolate, WBG1022, was resistant to penicillin, kanamycin, neomycin, streptomycin, chloramphenicol, trimethoprim, cadmium, and ethidium bromide and harbored plasmids of 34.5, 24.5, 4.4, 3.2, and 2.6 kilobases. The plasmids were transferred in mixed-culture transfer and conjugation experiments. No resistance phenotype was associated with the 2.6-kb plasmid. The 3.2-kb and 4.4-kb plasmids encoded chloramphenicol and streptomycin resistance respectively. The 24.5-kb plasmid, pWBG626, encoded joint resistance to penicillin, kanamycin, neomycin, and ethidium bromide. Resistance to trimethoprim and cadmium were chromosomal. The 34.5-kb plasmid, pWBG661, had no resistance phenotype but was found to be conjugative. It also mobilized the 4.4-kb and 24.5-kb plasmids in WBG1022. Restriction endonuclease analysis of pWBG661 with EcoRI, ClaI, PvuII, and BglII restriction enzymes demonstrated that pWBG661 was identical to two previously isolated S. aureus conjugative plasmids, pWBG620 and pWBG637, that also lack resistance phenotypes.

T1 - Adenine methylation at dam sites increases transient gene expression in plant cells
AN - 16992884; 3826606
AB - Escherichia coli encodes two major DNA methylation systems: dam, which produces 6-methyladenine; and dcm, which produces 5-methylcytosine. About 1-2% of adenine and cytosine residues in plasmid DNAs prepared in E. coli are methylated by these systems. Since DNA methylation profoundly influences gene expression eukaryotes, we were interested in determining whether these bacterially encoded modifications might also effect plant gene expression in experimental systems. We therefore examined the influence of dam and dcm methylation on gene expression from four GUS fusion constructs in transient assays in protoplasts and microprojectile-bombarded whole tissues. In these constructs, GUS expression was driven by promoter regions derived from the Arabidopsis alcohol dehydrogenase (Adh1), maize ubiquitin (Ubi1), rice actin (Act1) and CaMV 35S genes. We show that methyladenine produced by dam methylation increased gene expression from constructs based on the Adh1, Ubi1 and Act1 genes. The increase in gene expression ranged from three-fold for Ubi1 and Adh1 in protoplasts to 50-fold for Act1 in bombarded wheat tissues. Expression of a 35S.GUS construct was, however, insensitive to dam methylation. dcm methylation had little if any effect on transient gene expression for any of these constructs. We provide indirect evidence that the critical sites of adenine methylation lie within sequences from the promoter regions, suggesting that dam methylation increases transcription rate. These results have important experimental implications and also raise the intriguing possibility that methyladenine might play a role in the regulation of gene expression in vivo.

T1 - Comparison of the vibriocidal antibody response in cholera due to Vibrio cholerae O139 bengal with the response in cholera due to Vibrio cholerae O1
AN - 16992105; 3837185
AB - Vibrio cholerae serogroup O139, now considered to be the second organism capable of causing epidemic severe dehydrating cholera, contains a capsular polysaccharide which makes it difficult for it to be used in the conventional vibriocidal antibody assay optimized for V. cholerae O1. After modification of the procedure, which involved the use of specific bacterial strains, a lower bacterial inoculum, and increased amounts of complement, the vibriocidal antibody responses to V. cholerae O139 were measured in acute- and convalescent-phase sera from 33 V. cholerae O139-infected and 18 V. cholerae O1-infected patients and in single serum samples from 20 healthy control subjects. The responses in these individuals to V. cholerae O1 strains were also determined. Significant elevations in the homologous antibody response were found only in the convalescent- phase sera from both groups of patients with cholera. These findings may explain the basis for the lack of heterologous protection between the two serogroups of V. cholerae. Healthy controls had higher background levels of vibriocidal antibody to V. cholerae O1 than to V. cholerae O139.

T1 - Development of a wastewater monitoring program incorporated into process control for mitigation of chemical and fiber loss from the Bai Bang Paper Company (BAPACO), a bleached kraft pulp and paper mill in Vietnam
AN - 16991453; 3836296
AB - A wastewater monitoring program, was incorporated into an industrial process control strategy to minimize process upsets and resulting abnormal discharges. In the present study, the program, which is considered as applicable to a wide range of industrial processes, was applied to the Bai Bang Paper Company (BAPACO), a Vietnamese integrated bleached kraft pulp and paper mill. Through environmental auditing the mill was found to discharge high pollution loads into the environment. A large portion of this discharge was material loss, fiber and spent cooking liquor, associated with accidental discharges and spills. These can be prevented to benefit both the mill economics and the environment. Rapidly assessed pollution parameters (RAPPs) were used to express the losses, settleable solids after 15 min settling (SetS15) for fiber, and conductivity (Cond) for cooking chemical losses. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used on effluent monitoring data to determine periods of 'normal' discharges. Average RAPPs during these 'normal' periods were used as targets for control.

T1 - A channel-like transporter for NH sub(4) super(+) on the symbiotic interface of N sub(2)-fixing plants
AN - 16990213; 3837059
AB - Symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing bacteria (rhizobia) allows legumes to survive in nitrogen-poor soils. The nitrogen-fixing bacteroids are found inside root nodule cells within the symbiosome, an organelle bounded by the peribacteroid membrane. Across this membrane the plant receives fixed nitrogen in exchange for reduced carbon. It has been assumed that fixed nitrogen is released from the symbiosome as either NH sub(3) or NH sub(4) super(+), but until now the transport mechanism was unknown. We report here the use of patch-clamp techniques to show, in membrane patches on isolated symbiosomes, smoothly activating currents that are passive and equivalent to the influx of cations to the plant cytoplasm. The currents are largest with NH sub(4) super(+) as the cation at physiological concentration and they are blocked by calcium ions on the bacteroid side of the membrane. The characteristics of the currents are more like those of a channel than of carrier-mediated transport. In vivo nitrogen would move passively as NH sub(4) super(+) to the cytoplasm upon energization of the membrane and calcium ions may be involved in regulation of the flux.

T1 - Characterization of Aeromonas trota strains that cross-react with Vibrio cholerae O139 Bengal
AN - 16989257; 3822392
AB - It has previously been shown that Vibrio cholerae O139 Bengal shares antigens with V. cholerae serogroups O22 and O155. We detected six surface water isolates of Aeromonas trota that agglutinated in polyclonal antisera to V. cholerae O139 and V. cholerae O22 but not in antiserum to V. cholerae O155. On the basis of agglutinin-absorption studies, the antigenic relationship between the cross-reacting bacteria were found to be in an a,b-a,c fashion, where a is the common antigenic epitope and b and c are unique epitopes. The antigen sharing between A. trota strains and V. cholerae O139 was confirmed in immunoblot studies. However, A. trota strains did not react with two monoclonal antibodies specific for V. cholerae O139 and, consequently, tested negative in the Bengal SMART rapid diagnostic test for V. cholerae O139 which uses one of the monoclonal antibodies. A polyclonal antiserum to a cross-reacting A. trota strain cross-protected infant mice against cholera on challenge with virulent V. cholerae O139. All A. trota strains were cytotoxic for HeLa cells, positive for adherence to HEp-2 cells, and weakly invasive for HEp-2 cells; one strain was heat-stable toxin positive in the suckling mouse assay; however, all strains were negative for cholera toxin-like enterotoxin. Studies on bacteria that share somatic antigen with V. cholerae O139 may shed further light on the genesis of V. cholerae O139.

T1 - Below-ground herbivory in Carduus nutans (Asteraceae) and the potential for biological control
AN - 16989240; 3835348
AB - The impact of root-feeding insects attacking the 'biennial' Carduus nutans L. in the southern part of its native European distribution was studied as part of a biological control programme against this weed for Australia. Surveys were conducted from Spain to Greece to parallel previous studies in central Europe and three populations of the weed were monitored in detail over a 2-4-year period in southern France. The damage levels and attack patterns of each insect species were recorded. The most common species damaging the roots and meristems were the weevils Hadroplontus (= Ceutorhynchus) trimaculatus F. and Trichosirocalus horridus Panzer and the syrphid fly Cheilosia corydon Harris (= grossa Fallen). In manipulative experiments, made to assess their impact on the host plant, C. corydon reduced seed production by up to 45%, while the two weevils mainly altered plant architecture. The results are discussed in relation to previous experience of using root feeders for the biological control of C. nutans.

T1 - Biological nitrogen fixation: An efficient source of nitrogen for sustainable agricultural production?
AN - 16988743; 3833451
AB - A fundamental shift has taken place in agricultural research and world food production. In the past, the principal driving force was to increase the yield potential of food crops and to maximize productivity. Today, the drive for productivity is increasingly combined with a desire for sustainability. For farming systems to remain productive, and to be sustainable in the long-term, it will be necessary to replenish the reserves of nutrients which are removed or lost from the soil. In the case of nitrogen (N), inputs into agricultural systems may be in the form of N-fertilizer, or be derived from atmospheric N sub(2) via biological N sub(2) fixation (BNF). Although BNF has long been a component of many farming systems throughout the world, its importance as a primary source of N for agriculture has diminished in recent decades as increasing amounts of fertilizer-N are used for the production of food and cash crops. However, international emphasis on environmentally sustainable development with the use of renewable resources is likely to focus attention on the potential role of BNF in supplying N for agriculture. This paper documents inputs of N via symbiotic N sub(2) fixation measured in experimental plots and in farmers' fields in tropical and temperate regions. It considers contributions of fixed N from legumes (crop, pasture, green manures and trees), Casuarina, and Azolla, and compares the relative utilization of N derived from these sources with fertilizer N.

T1 - Comparison of purified 12 kDa and recombinant 15 kDa Fasciola hepatica antigens related to a Schistosoma mansoni fatty acid binding protein
AN - 16986309; 3829488
AB - Vaccines in schistosomiasis using homologous antigens have been studied extensively in experimentally infected mammalian hosts. Vaccines using heterologous antigens have received comparatively less attention. This review summarizes recent work on a heterologous 12 kDa Fasciola hepatica antigenic polypeptide which cross reacts with Schistosoma mansoni. A cDNA has been cloned and sequenced, and the predicted amino acid sequence of the recombinant protein has been shown to have significant (44 %) identity with a 14 kDa S. mansoni fatty acid binding protein. Thus in the parasitic trematodes fatty acid binding proteins may be potential vaccine candidates. The F. hepatica recombinant protein has been overexpressed and purified and denoted rFh15. Preliminary studies show that rFh15 migrates more slowly (i.e. may be slightly larger) than nFh12 on SDS-PAGE and has a predicted pI of 6.01 vs. observed pI of 5.45. Mice infected with F. hepatica develop antibodies to nFh12 by 2 weeks of infection vs. 6 weeks of infection to rFh15; on the other hand, mice with schistosomiasis mansoni develop antibodies to both nFh12 and rFh15 by 6 weeks of infection. Both the F. hepatica and S. mansoni cross-reactive antigens may be cross-protective antigens with the protection inducing capability against both species.

T1 - Octopus pallidus cytochrome P-450: Characterisation and induction studies with beta -naphthoflavone and Aroclor 1254
AN - 16986222; 3831592
AB - Levels of cytochrome P-450 and related enzyme activities in Octopus pallidus were investigated for the first time to assess their potential for use as biomarkers of xenobiotic exposure. Spectral analysis revealed cytochrome P-450 in the digestive gland microsomes. Enzyme assays 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase and 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase were optimised with respect to temperature, pH and incubation time and NADPH cytochrome c reductase assays were performed. Corn oil was demonstrated to have an inhibitory effect on octopus cytochrome P-450 system. The study with Aroclor 1254 suspended in glycerol (100 mg/kg) revealed an elevation of 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase activity, which would indicate cytochrome P-450 was induced.

T1 - Use of cyanazine and malathion pulse-exposure toxicity to estimate the age of onset of functional liver metabolism in larval Australian crimson-spotted rainbowfish (Melanotaenia fluviatilis)
AN - 16985886; 3835104
AB - This study investigated the onset of liver function in larval crimson-spotted rainbowfish (Melanotaenia fluviatilis). Mortality was determined for various aged larval fish pulse exposed (PE) for 2 h to two liver metabolized chemicals: cyanazine which is detoxified, and malathion which is activated to a more toxic metabolite. Cyanazine toxicity decreased between day 0 and day 3 post-hatch with no further change up to day 12 post-hatch. No significant difference in malathion toxicity with age was found but a trend of increased toxicity between day 0 and day 3 post-hatch was evident. The results indicated that rainbowfish liver becomes functional between 0 and 3 days post-hatch. Static replacement 96 h LC sub(50)s (slope, 95% F.L) for 4-month-old adult rainbowfish continuously exposed to cyanazine and malathion were 24.6 (9.48; 20.6, 28.3) and 2.09 (94.6; 1.6, 2.6) mg/l respectively; 2 h PE NOEC and LOEC values based on larval mortality for cyanazine and malathion were < 1.9 and 1.9 mg/l, and < 15.6 and 15.6 mg/l respectively. These results indicate that rainbowfish are moderately sensitive to cyanazine and malathion toxicity.

T1 - New techniques for studying competition by rhizobia and for assessing nitrogen fixation in the field
AN - 16985282; 3832965
AB - One of the key factors limiting the proper assessment and use of rhizobial strains in the field is the lack of suitable methodology to screen the success of individual isolates in competing for nodule occupancy with different cultivars of legumes and in different soil and agronomic conditions. The use of marker genes enables individual rhizobial strains to be identified by a simple colour assay, thus enabling a dramatic increase in throughput of strain screening. One such marker system for rhizobial ecology, the GUS system, is already in use to facilitate rapid screening of rhizobial isolates. Other markers, which will allow the competitive behaviour of several strains to be studied at once, are under development. Likewise, breeding of the host legume for a high efficiency of nitrogen fixation is hampered by the difficulty in assessing this property. The method which currently gives the highest throughput of analysis, and has been successfully used in soybean breeding programs, is the ureide technique. However, it remains somewhat laborious for use in routine breeding programs. In this paper we discuss the potential use of reporter genes to provide information on the relative levels of ureides and other nitrogenous compounds in plants growing in the field. This would greatly increase the rate at which this trait could be scored, and would thus enable routine assays for increased symbiotic nitrogen fixation for breeding or management purposes in legume crops such as soybean (Glycine max) and common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris).

T1 - Development of an improved animal model of shigellosis in the adult rabbit by colonic infection with Shigella flexneri 2a
AN - 16982052; 3818754
AB - Rabbits are not usually susceptible to intestinal Shigella infection without extensive pretreatment, including starvation and administration of antimicrobial, antimotility, and toxic agents (carbon tetrachloride). Most animals infected this way die rapidly and do not always develop colonic lesions and signs of dysentery. We describe here a successful experimental infection in the adult rabbit which does not require preparatory treatment and which reproduced characteristic features of human shigellosis. Unstarved, untreated adult rabbits were infected by direct inoculation of virulent Shigella flexneri 2a (10 ml of 10 super(7) bacteria per ml) into the proximal colon after ligation of the distal cecum (cecal bypass). Within 24 h of infection, most inoculated animals consistently developed clinical dysentery, characterized by liquid stool mixed with mucus and blood, leukocytosis, anorexia, and weight loss. Histologically, there were edema, exudation, superficial ulceration, and polymorphonuclear infiltrations in the lamina propria; crypt abscess formation; focal hemorrhages; and the presence of immunohistochemically stained S. flexneri in the colonic mucosa. Successful bacterial colonization was indicated by the isolation of the challenge strain of S. flexneri 2a from the colonic contents. None of the control rabbits challenged with nonvirulent S. flexneri or without cecal bypass developed dysentery or colitis. We conclude that successful Shigella infection can be induced by direct colonic inoculation with virulent S. flexneri 2a in adult rabbits without starvation and pretreatment. The colitis is dependent on the virulence of the bacteria and on the cecal bypass. This model should be useful in studies of the immunopathogenesis of Shigella infection.

T1 - Cis-urocanic acid synergizes with histamine for increased PGE sub(2) production by human keratinocytes: Link to indomethacin-inhibitable UVB-induced immunosuppression
AN - 16981017; 3827133
AB - There is considerable evidence that suppression of the immune system by UVB (280-320 nm UV) irradiation is initiated by UVB-dependent isomerization of a specific skin photoreceptor, urocanic acid (UCA), from the trans to the cis form. Previous studies have confirmed that cis-UCA administration to mice 3-5 days prior to hapten sensitization at a distant site, suppresses the contact hypersensitivity (CHS) response upon challenge. This study demonstrates in mice that cis-UCA, like UVB, suppresses CHS to trinitrochlorobenzene by a mechanism partly dependent on prostanoid production. In vitro experimentation showed that human keratinocytes, isolated from neonatal foreskin, increased prostaglandin E sub(2) (PGE sub(2)) production in response to histamine but not UCA alone. However, cis-UCA synergized with histamine for increased PGE sub(2) production by keratinocytes. Cis-urocanic acid also increased the sensitivity of keratinocytes for PGE sub(2) production in response to histamine. Prostaglandin E sub(2) from keratinocytes exposed to cis-UCA and histamine may contribute directly, or indirectly, to the regulation of CHS responses by UVB irradiation.

T1 - Plankton productivity and biomass in the western Equatorial Pacific: Biological and physical controls
AN - 16979678; 3823962
AB - During October 1990 in the western Equatorial Pacific, from 5 degree S to 5 degree N along 155 degree E, the isothermal and isopycnal lines (near 150 m) domed upwards, surface temperatures were high (29.5-30 degree C), surface salinites were low (33.8-34.2), SST anomalies were <0.5 degree C between 120 degree E and 160 degree E, and the westward flowing SEC was well developed. These conditions are typical of non-ENSO conditions. An eastward flowing surface current was observed that was probably the result of a westerly wind burst. Between 5 degree S and 5 degree N, the barrier layer was much thicker south of the equator and the thickness of the barrier layer varied from 88 m at 2 degree S to 6 m at 1 degree N. Nitrate and nitrite were not detected in surface waters, but phosphate and silicate were present at concentrations of about 0.15 mu M and 1.5 mu M, respectively. Nitrate was always present at the deep chlorophyll maximum (DCM), which varied in depth from about 74 to 96 m. The distribution of chlorophyll a (plus divinyl-chlorophyll a) about the equator was distinctly bimodal, with the highest values (0.4 mu g l super(-1)) occurring 2 degrees either side of the equator. Depth integrated values ranged from 23 to 32 mg m super(-2), and despite the very different oceanographic conditions these values are similar to those found in the nutrient-rich waters of the central and eastern equatorial Pacific. However, primary production estimates ranged from 96 to 241 mg C m super(-2) day super(-1) (8.0 to 20.1 mmol C m super(-2) day super(-1)), and these are much lower than previous rates reported for the central and eastern equatorial Pacific. The vertical distribution of cyanobacteria varied markedly from 5 degree S to 5 degree N. North of the equator, the concentrations were fairly high and uniform in the upper water column whereas, south of the equator, surface concentrations were low with a subsurface maximum. This distribution of cyanobacteria suggests that there was transient enrichment north of the equator but not to the south. The low salinity surface layer was highly oligotrophic and appeared to be effectively isolated the subsurface fluxes of nitrate or dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). Productivity in the surface layer seemed to be limited by the supply of nutrients, although there were indications that transient nutrient enrichment of surface waters may have occurred north of the equator. In the DCM it appeared to be limited by light. Integrated primary production and cyanobacterial cell counts were elevated north of the equator where the barrier layer was thin. The isolation of the surface waters from the deeper waters that were enriched in nutrients and DIC caused the pCO sub(2) values in surface waters to be in near equilibrium with the atmosphere. Despite a strong N-S gradient in the thickness of the barrier layer, the nitracline and upper boundary of the deep chlorophyll maximum were independent of latitude and occurred at approximately 60-70 m, close to the depth of 10% light penetration.

T1 - Rumen involvement in sheep tannic acid metabolism
AN - 16977916; 3827429
AB - Tannic acid (TA) metabolism was studied in sheep after po, intra-abomasal and ip administration. TA and its phenolic metabolites in ruminal fluid, abomasal fluid, plasma and urine were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography at various intervals post-dosing. After po administration, gallic acid (GA) and pyrogallol (PYR) were present in ruminal fluid and plasma, and GA, PYR and 4-O-methyl gallic acid (40MGA) were found in urine. The concentration of GA in ruminal fluid and urine gradually decreased after dosing, while PYR concentration continued to rise. By contrast, after intra-abomasal dosing, GA and ellagic acid (EA) as well as TA were found in abomasal fluid, GA, 40MGA, EA and TA were present in plasma, and GA, 40MGA and PYR were in urine. The latter 3 metabolites were also detected in the urine after ip administration of TA. The plasma concentration of TA after intra-abomasal administration was significantly correlated with liver necrosis, and PYR concentration in ruminal fluid following po administration was significantly correlated to blood methemoglobin level. It was concluded that the methemoglobinemia seen in sheep given TA po is caused by high levels of the phenolic metabolite PYR, which is produced in the rumen. Liver and kidney necrosis, seen in sheep given TA directly into the abomasum, appears caused by unmetabolized TA rather than by metabolites.

T1 - Improving precision of acoustic surveys on benthopelagic fish by the use of a deeply-towed transducer
AN - 16976465; 3817856
AB - Acoustic measurements of deep water fish from a deeply-towed transducer deployed at a depth of 500 m over a seamount (rising from 1000 to 600 m depth) are compared with those from a vessel-mounted transducer. Algorithms were developed to correct for noise and to analyse signals near the bottom. The analysis showed that the vessel-mounted transducer can significantly underestimate the biomass of deepwater fish by an average factor of 1.86, equating to 2.7 dB. This bias was largely attributed to beam thresholding, uncertainties in the sound absorption constant, acoustic attenuation from near surface bubbles and ship motion. On the slopes of the seamount the near bottom shadow-zone was reduced by 50% and the estimated biomass in this zone reduced by 47% using the deeply towed transducer. These results confirm that a deeply-towed transducer will improve absolute abundance measurements of deep water resources.

T1 - Characterization of a cDNA encoding the protein moiety of a putative arabinogalactan protein from Lycopersicon esculentum
AN - 16972821; 3821389
AB - The nucleotide sequence of a cDNA prepared from poly(A) super(+) RNA from Lycopersicon esculentum fruit codes for a protein, M sub(r) 20812, with features representative of the protein core of arabinogalactan proteins. The deduced amino acid sequence resembles that of peptides of arabinogalactan proteins isolated from carrot and rose and is most similar to the sequence of tryptic peptides from Lolium multiflorum (Gleeson et al., Biochem J 264 (1989) 857-862). The similar sequences include a number of Ala-Pro repeats, a feature considered distinctive of arabinogalactan proteins. The amino acid composition is similar to that of the peptide core of the Lolium multiflorum arabinogalactan protein; alanine, serine and proline account for 57% of the polypeptide. The mRNA corresponding to the cDNA sequence was detected in roots, leaves and fruit. The levels of mRNA are reduced in older leaves, in fruit that have commenced ripening and in leaves and fruit have been wounded.

T1 - Extracellular calcium is not required for gliotoxin or dexamethasone-induced DNA fragmentation: A reappraisal of the use of EGTA
AN - 16970976; 3822766
AB - The immunomodulating agent gliotoxin and related toxins cause apoptotic cell death in a variety of cell types including macrophages and thymocytes. The mechanism of induction of apoptosis by gliotoxin is not yet known, although it does not require protein synthesis, unlike dexamethasone-induced apoptosis in thymocytes. Because of the reported requirement for extracellular calcium in apoptosis induced by dexamethasone, we studied the effects of extracellular calcium on gliotoxin-induced apoptosis in macrophages. Initial experiments using calcium-depleted media showed no inhibition of apoptotic DNA fragmentation by gliotoxin. By measuring residual super(45)Ca super(2+) remaining in cells pulsed with labelled calcium over the time period required for DNA fragmentation, we could demonstrate some uptake of extracellular calcium into treated cells as assessed by residual, slowly exchanging calcium. When cells were treated with the calcium chelator EGTA at 0.5-2 mM, calcium uptake was abolished but DNA fragmentation was unaffected. EGTA at higher concentrations, up to 8 mM, did inhibit DNA fragmentation without any additional inhibition of calcium uptake. Similar results were found for dexamethasone-treated thymocytes. Thymocytes treated with 8 mM EGTA, however, were not rescued from apoptosis but died by necrosis. These results indicate that extracellular calcium is not essential for apoptosis induced by these agents and that the use of high concentrations of EGTA to establish a requirement for extracellular calcium in apoptosis should be treated with caution.

T1 - Hemodialysis removal of acyclovir
AN - 16969279; 3818361
AB - A 59-y-old with a history of chronic renal failure on hemodialysis was diagnosed with herpes zoster and begun on 800 mg acyclovir 5 times daily. Two days later the patient developed visual hallucinations, ataxia, confusion and memory loss along with focal myoclonus, nausea and vomiting. No fever, elevated WBC count or significant electrolyte imbalance was found. CT scan of the brain was unremarkable. The patient was then dialyzed for presumed acyclovir toxicity. Her acyclovir level was later found to have been 3.4 mu g/ml (normal peak range 0.4-2 mu g/ml) prior to dialysis. After 3 h of hemodialysis, her post-dialysis acyclovlr level was 1.9 mu g/ml. After a second course of hemodialysis the next day the patient's mental status improved, and she was discharged 5 d later. Due to its low volume of distribution (0.6 L/kg), low protein binding (about 15%) and water solubility, acyclovir is an example of the ideal drug that can be removed by hemodialysis. About 45% of the total body amount can be extracted through a 3-h course of hemodialysis with resultant improvement in symptoms.

T1 - Frequency-dependent selection in a wild plant-pathogen system
AN - 16968991; 3813260
AB - This study investigated the occurrence of the rust fungus Puccinia chondrillina in clonal populations of its host plant, Chondrilla juncea. In 16 populations spread across eastern Turkey, 48 different multilocus isozyme phenotypes were identified in the host. Of these clones, 88% were restricted to single localities, while the remaining 12% were found in 2-11 populations. For 13 of the 16 plant populations the commonest host clone was always infected. Indeed, at ten sites this clone was the only one found to carry disease. In the remaining three populations the rusted plants were all of the second commonest isozyme type. The possibility of such a tight association of rust incidence with host clone frequency simultaneously across a wide geographic area is very low (P<=0.023), supporting the contention that the pathogen. P. chondrillina may be imposing negative frequency-dependent selection on these C. juncea populations.

T1 - Concentrations and spatial distribution of trace metals in mangrove sediments from the Brisbane River, Australia
AN - 16962427; 3816011
AB - Fifty surface sediment samples were collected from 12 transects through a mangrove woodland near the mouth of the Brisbane River, Australia. Samples were analyzed for 10 trace metals; measured concentrations ( mu g/g) were: Cu 3.1-34.1; Pb 7.7-84.7; Zn 40.8-144.0; Ag nd-2.8; Cr 7.6-116.8; V 16.4-57.9; Mo 7.6-82.6; Ni 2.4-57.6; As nd-13.0; and Cd nd-2.0. Coefficients of variation ranged from 22-153%. Sediments were moderately contaminated, with Mo being enriched by up to thirty times background levels. Spatial variation was considerable, and canonical trend analysis showed concentrations of all metals but Ag and Cr tended to increase downshore, suggesting tidal deposition was important in determining metal concentrations. Silver and Cr concentrations appeared to be a consequence of contamination from landward point sources. An investigation of different random sampling intensities showed the spatial variation required that many samples be taken for a satisfactory assessment of metal burdens. Even so, mean values were not a good indication of the possible environmental effects of the metal contamination. Since metal concentrations increase downshore in inter-tidal environments, a more appropriate sampling strategy would be to take a downshore series of samples normal to the shoreline.

T1 - Toxic Nodularia spumigena Mertens blooms in Australian waters -- a case study from Orielton Lagoon, Tasmania
AN - 16955856; 3809330
AB - Toxic blooms of Nodularia spumigena Mertens are a seasonal or irregular occurrence in some Australian estuaries and coastal inlets. They have massive impacts on water quality, recreational use of waterways, tourism and human health issues. This paper presents data on a N. spumigena bloom which occurred in Orielton Lagoon, a shallow, eutrophic coastal embayment in Tasmania, between December 1992 and March 1993. Growth characteristics of N. spumigena cultured from Orielton Lagoon are described.

T1 - Relationships between stem diameter, sapwood area, leaf area and transpiration in a young mountain ash forest
AN - 16889342; 3796529
AB - We examined relationships between stem diameter, sapwood area, leaf area and transpiration in a 15-year-old mountain ash (Eucalyptus regnans F. Muell.) forest containing silver wattle (Acacia dealbata Link.) as a suppressed overstory species and mountain hickory (Acacia frigescens J.H. Willis) as an understory species. Stem diameter explained 93% of the variation in leaf area, 96% of the variation in sapwood area and 88% of the variation in mean daily spring transpiration in 19 mountain ash trees. In seven silver wattle trees, stem diameter explained 87% of the variation in sapwood area but was a poor predictor of the other variables. When transpiration measurements from individual trees were scaled up to a plot basis, using stem diameter values for 164 mountain ash trees and 124 silver wattle trees, mean daily spring transpiration rates of the two species were 2.3 and 0.6 mm day super(-1), respectively. The leaf area index of the plot was estimated directly by destructive sampling, and indirectly with an LAI-2000 plant canopy analyzer and by hemispherical canopy photography. All three methods gave similar results.

AN - 16887367; 3801416
AB - Storm surges in various Canadian waters are reviewed. Following a brief discussion of the weather systems that cause storm surges in Canadian coastal and inland waters, the mathematical formulations to describe the development of storm surges are given. In reviewing storm surges in the different Canadian waters, particular attention is given to describe the influence of the presence of sea ice on surge development and the impact of shallow coastal areas, where the coastline configuration is itself changed by the surge, on inland penetration of the storm surge. The Canadian waters that may be affected by storm surges include the east and west coasts, the Beaufort Sea, the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the St. Lawrence estuary, Hudson Bay and the Great Lakes.

T1 - Multiple birth concordance of street drug assays of meconium analysis
AN - 16887223; 3797693
AB - To determine the prevalence of maternal drug usage in a mid-size midwestern city (population 250,000), we analyzed 1,175 consecutive meconium samples from the neonatal intensive care unit from March 1991 through December 1993. We focused on meconium assays from multiple births as a quality control method. Meconium specimens were analyzed using fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA-Abbott Diagnostics) with confirmation done by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Cutoff concentrations of 5 ng/g were utilized for all analytes. A total of 151 samples (12.9%) tested positive. Cocaine-exposed neonates had the highest positive rate (63 or 5.4%), followed by marijuana (52 cases or 4.4%), cocaethylene (12 cases or 1%), and amphetamine (1 case or 0.1%). Nine patients (0.8%) had multiple drugs present. There were a total of 23 sets of multiple births (21 twins, 2 triplets); 20 sets of multiple births (42 patients) had concordance with all births testing negative. Three sets of twins and concordance in testing positive, with 1 twin testing positive for cocaine while the other twin tested positive for cocaine and marijuana. No absolute discordance of twins assays were noted. The rate of maternal drug use through measurement of meconium is about 12.95% in this mid-sized midwestern city. Twin studies provide an excellent method for verifying fetal drug exposure. The use of sets of multiple births provides a unique internal quality control mechanism in determining fetal drug exposure.

T1 - Uptake of water from the atmosphere by lichens in continental Antarctica
AN - 16878791; 3795505
AB - Microclimate relative humidity and temperature and lichen thallus temperature were measured from August 1992 to January 1993 at the crest of a hill on Clark Peninsula in the Windmill Islands, continental Antarctica. The water potential of the air in the lichen microhabitat was modelled and compared with the water potential assumed to be necessary for lichen photosynthesis due to water vapour uptake. It was found that for most of the spring the atmospheric water potential was too low for water vapour uptake by exposed lichen. In all there were only 351 h during which water vapour uptake could have occurred, most of this falling in November. The results indicate that water vapour uptake by exposed lichen will occur during the period of snow melt at the beginning of summer, but only rarely at other times.

T1 - The first open-coast beach fill in Texas
AN - 16877752; 3800527
AB - Much of the Texas Gulf shoreline is receding. In response to this coastal erosion, in 1993 the city of Galveston Texas, began the planning and permitting process for construction of a beach nourishment project that would provide both storm protection and a recreational beach. Few beach fills have been constructed along the Texas Gulf coast, and the Galveston beach replenishment project is considered the first official project along the Texas shoreline. The Galveston project is therefore precedent setting, and special emphasis is being given to its design to provide a standard for future beach replenishment projects in Texas. This project, funded by the City of Galveston, requires extraction of more than 710,000 cubit yards of sediment from one or more borrow sites located approximately one mile of offshore of the nourishment site. Because of the large amount of material to be dredged, relatively shallow water of the borrow sites (15 to 25 ft mean low water), and proximity to the beach, the Texas General Land Office and the City of Galveston commissioned the Conrad Blucher Institute to conduct a wave transformation and shoreline response assessment. The objective of the assessment was to determine the shoreline impacts of the borrow dredging, if any, and to recommend the dredging practice that would minimize these impacts. This paper describes the history, project plan, shoreline change assessment, and the results that led to the recommended extraction procedure for the Galveston project.

T1 - Formation of nodular structures on the non-legumes Brassica napus, B. campestris, B. juncea and Arabidopsis thaliana with Bradyrhizobium and Rhizobium isolated from Parasponia spp. or legumes grown in tropical soils
AN - 16875891; 3795493
AB - Strains of Bradyrhizobium formed nodule-like structures on Arabidopsis and species of Brassica in pots with sand-vermiculite and in glass tubes on a nitrogen-free mineral salts agar. Broad-host-range Rhizobium strains NGR234 from Lablab purpureus and NGR76 from Phaseolus vulgaris formed similar nodule-like structures on Brassica spp. The size of these structures on plants in pots were large, often reaching 10 mm in diameter. The frequency of inoculated Brassica plants in pots with nodule-like structures was 25-50%, depending on the inoculum strain. The inheritable nature of factors involved in the formation of the nodule-like structures was demonstrated when the structures occurred on 100% of inoculated B. napus seedlings derived from plants with the nodule-like structures. Nodule-like structures occurred without, but not with, the application of a cellulase-pectolyase-PEG treatment to the roots. Attempts to isolate Bradyrhizobium or Rhizobium from the nodule-like structures failed. Internal infection of these structures could not be detected using either the light or electron microscope. The inoculum strains of root-nodule bacteria were detected in high numbers in the rhizophere of plants 5 months after inoculation. On agar plates bacterial colonies could be seen, with undiminished growth, over the surface of the agar extending to the root surface. However, ground root tissue of Brassica was toxic to Bradyrhizobium strains. This suggested that Bradyrhizobium strains would not survive after infecting the roots of Brassica spp. Nitrogen fixation was associated with high rhizosphere populations of Azospirillum and not with Bradyrhizobium induced nodule structures of Brassica spp.

T1 - Growth and survival as a function of density for marron (Cherax tenuimanus (Smith)) stocked in a recirculating system
AN - 16874469; 3791659
AB - The effect of density on growth and survival of marron was determined over a 183-day period in order to provide data for tank-based marron culture in Australia's lower west. Marron were stocked as 10-month-old juveniles at densities of 1, 3, 5 and 7 m super(-2) in a recirculating system comprising a 1 ML sump and twelve 27 m super(2) concrete tanks. Tanks were divided in half using partitions that allowed water exchange between sides. Results showed lower mean growth rates as density increased. Survival was not significantly affected by changes in stocking density. Surviving densities ranged from 0.69 to 4.97 m super(-2) and showed a higher degree of correlation with net yield and mean final weight than did initial density. Net yield displayed a positive linear relationship with surviving density (r super(2) = 0.90). Mean final weight showed strong linear correlation with the reciprocal of surviving density (r super(2) = 0.93), suggesting that area of bottom per crayfish is a major determinant of marron size in tank culture, as has been shown for pond culture. The possible role of water-borne chemical factors in the growth-density effect in marron is also discussed.

T1 - Peripheral blood neutrophil responses in children with shigellosis
AN - 16874128; 3792207
AB - Alterations in peripheral blood neutrophil function are known to occur in patients with colitis and may have a role in precipitating nonspecific tissue injury. It is not known whether neutrophil function is altered in patients with Shigella dysenteriae type 1 infection, during which there is extensive colitis and which may be associated with life-threatening complications in young children. Three aspects of peripheral blood neutrophil function, polarization, attachment to yeast particles, and locomotion, were therefore studied in 111 children with S. dysenteriae type 1 infection and 57 children without any infection. All children were aged 12 to 60 months. Of the children with S. dysenteriae type 1 infection, 42 had leukemoid reaction, hemolytic-uremic syndrome, or septicemia (complicated shigellosis), while the others did not (uncomplicated shigellosis). Polarization and locomotion in the absence of chemoattractants and in response to N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) and the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of S. dysenteriae type 1 were determined. Attachment to unopsonized and opsonized yeast particles was also determined. Children with shigellosis (uncomplicated or complicated) had more polarized neutrophils with and without chemoattractants than uninfected children (P < 0.05). Children with complicated shigellosis had more neutrophils with FMLP at 10 super(-7) and 10 super(-6) M (P < 0.05) and with LPS than children with uncomplicated shigellosis (P < 0.05). At 3 to 5 days after enrollment, the numbers of polarized neutrophils with 10 super(-8), 10 super(-6), and 10 super(-5) M FMLP declined in children with uncomplicated shigellosis but not in those with complicated shigellosis. Attachment to yeast particles was similar in all three groups of children. Locomotion was inhibited by LPS in children with shigellosis (P < 0.05), whether it was uncomplicated or complicated, compared with locomotion in uninfected children. Finally, neutrophil polarization in uninfected children was negatively influenced by nutritional status. Thus, poorly nourished uninfected children had more polarized neutrophils with FMLP at 10 super(-9) M (P = 0.020) and 10 super(-5) M (P = 0.043) than their better-nourished counterparts. In summary, altered neutrophil responses are associated with both uncomplicated and complicated shigellosis.

T1 - Biogeography of fire-killed and resprouting Banksia species in south-western Australia
AN - 16873835; 3794650
AB - Banksia includes 38 fire-killed (seeders) and 20 resprouting species, and two species with contrasting ecotypes, in south-western Australia. There may be up to 12 seeders per 50 x 50 km grid cell in the southern sandplains and 12 resprouters in the northern sandplains. The patterns of distribution of species across soil type and eight climatic attributes is similar for both life forms, except that greater numbers of resprouting species occur at higher rainfalls and where there is greater seasonal spread of rainfall. Most seeders occur on white sands and rocky substrates, and resprouters occur on yellow sands and the more fertile lateritic soils. Nutrient requirements for both life forms appear to be similar. Resprouters are more widespread than seeders which suggests that resprouters show greater environmental tolerances. The distribution of grid cells containing each life form across soil types and eight climatic attributes is similar and any differences in climatic profile for all species in each category are considered biologically insignificant. Both life forms in section Abietinae are well represented in the climatically distinct southern and northern sandplains indicating no climatic preferences within the lineage. There are no consistent trends in environmental attributes from fire-killed to resprouting ecotypes of B. ashbyi E.G.Baker and B. violacea C.A. Gardner. Multiple-partitioning classification of the floristic data produced 10 groups varying greatly in geography, species richness, and proportion and endemism of each life form. The Lesueur (northern) district has four endemic seeders, six endemic resprouters and a mean of 10 resprouters per cell. The East Eyre (southern) district has five endemic seeders, no endemic resprouters and one resprouter per cell. Both groups have a mean growing season of 5 months. The relative aridities and fluctuations of present and past (Quaternary and late Tertiary) climates are invoked to explain the much higher proportion of resprouters in the northern than southern sandplains and the absence of seeders in the most marginal cells. The absence of endemic species yet high proportion of resprouters (73%) in the extreme south-western corner of the region might be explained by elimination of seeders through frequent burning by Aborigines in the late Quaternary. The increase in the proportion of fire-killed species along the south coast from 23% to 100% at the edge of the Nullarbor Plain also requires an explanation.

T1 - Scleractinian corals of Kuwait
AN - 16873510; 3794194
AB - A survey was made of the coral reefs of Kuwait to compile a species list of scleractinian corals. Twenty-eight hermatypic and six ahermatypic coral species are listed in systematic order, and a brief description is provided for each. A new species of Acropora is described. The Kuwait fauna is a small subset of the over 500 Indo-Pacific species. Several species show a higher degree of intraspecific variation than they exhibit in other locations. A range extension is reported for Acanthastrea maxima Sheppard & Salm, previously recorded from Oman (north and south coasts). A common species in the Arabian Gulf, Porites compressa Dana, has a disjunct distribution; it has not been found in the western Pacific, but occurs in the Red Sea, northern Indian Ocean, and Hawai'i. It is possible that the Gulf is one of the few places where Siderastrea and Pseudosiderastrea co-occur.

T1 - Interpolating mean rainfall using thin plate smoothing splines
AN - 16872298; 3794907
AB - Thin plate smoothing splines provide accurate, operationally straight-forward and computationally efficient solutions to the problem of the spatial interpolation of annual mean rainfall for a standard period from point data which contains many short period rainfall means. The analyses depend on developing a statistical model of the spatial variation of the observed rainfall means, considered as noisy estimates of standard period means. The error structure of this model has two components which allow separately for strong spatially correlated departures of observed short term means from standard period means and for uncorrelated deficiencies in the representation of standard period mean rainfall by a smooth function of position and elevation. Thin plate splines, with the degree of smoothing determining by minimising generalised cross validation, can estimate this smooth function in two ways. First, the spatially correlated error structure of the data can be accommodated directly by estimating the corresponding non-diagonal error covariance matrix. Secondly, spatial correlation in the data error structure can be removed by standardising the observed short term means to standard period mean estimates using linear regression. When applied to data both methods give similar interpolation accuracy, and error estimates of the fitted surfaces are in good agreement with residuals from withheld data. Simplified versions of the data error model, which require only minimal summary data at each location, are also presented. The interpolation accuracy obtained with these models is only slightly inferior to that obtained with more complete statistical models. It is shown that the incorporation of a continuous, spatially varying, dependence on appropriately scaled elevation makes a dominant contribution to surface accuracy. Incorporating dependence on aspect, as determined from a digital elevation model, makes only a marginal further improvement.

T1 - Implications of early browsing damage on the long term productivity of eucalypt forests
AN - 16870172; 3801160
AB - Seedlings of Eucalyptus nitens (Deane et Maiden) and Eucalyptus regnans F. Muell. were artificially defoliated at various times during their first growing season in order to simulate the effects of animal browsing. Results after 7 years indicated that there was no long term effect on the survival and growth of seedlings that were subjected to the removal of growing tips in the first spring and autumn following planting. The loss of half of the crown in autumn resulted in lower survival than for unbrowsed seedlings but the better growth rate of the surviving seedlings resulted in no loss of total volume production. However, seedlings subjected to the loss of half of the crown in spring produced 25% less total volume growth than unbrowsed seedlings. The complete removal of the crown resulted in long term volume losses of 71-97% as a result of very low survival and poor growth rates. The poor growth of heavily browsed seedlings was attributed to their failure to achieve dominance over the competing vegetation. Overall, the severity of defoliation had a greater effect on survival and growth than the timing of treatment, although browsing in autumn resulted in higher mortality than in spring. The results confirmed the need for eucalypt seedlings to be protected against severe browsing damage in order to achieve site occupancy and full growth potential.

T1 - Target sequence-specific inhibition of HIV-1 replication by ribozymes directed to tat RNA
AN - 16868249; 3788489
AB - The structural motif formed between a hammerhead ribozyme and its substrate consists of three RNA double helices in which the sequence 5' to the XUY is termed helix I and the sequence 3' to the XUY helix III. Two hammerhead ribozymes targeted to the tat gene of HIV-1SF2 were designed to study target specificity and the potential effect of helix I mismatch on ribozyme efficacy both in vitro and in vivo. The first ribozyme (Rz1) targeted to the 5' splicing region of the tat gene was designed to cleave GUC*A. In HIV-1IIIB the A is changed to a G. The second ribozyme (Rz2) was targeted to the translational initiation region of the tat gene which is highly conserved among a variety of HIV-1 isolates, including both HIV-1SF2 and HIV-1IIIB. In vitro cleavage studies demonstrated that Rz1 efficiently cleaved HIV-1SF2 substrate RNA, but not HIV-1IIIB, presumably due to the base change from A to G. In contrast, Rz2 cleaved HIV-1SF2 or HIV-1IIIB substrate with equal efficiency. Both ribozymes were cloned into the 3' untranslated region of the neomycin gene (neo) within the pSV2neo vector and transfected into the SupT1 human CD4 super(+) T cell line. Following selection, stable transfectants were challenged with either HIV-1SF2 or HIV-1IIIB virus. While Rz1-expressing cells were significantly protected from HIV-1SF2 infection, they exhibited no protection when infected with HIV-1IIIB virus. In contrast, Rz2 was effective in inhibiting the replication of both HIV-1SF2 and HIV-1IIIB in SupT1 cells. Expression of both ribozymes in these cells was demonstrated by Northern analysis. RT-PCR sequencing analysis confirmed the respective HIV-1 target sequence integrity. These data demonstrate the importance of the first base pair distal to the XUY within helix I of the hammerhead structure for both in vitro and in vivo ribozyme activities and imply that the effectiveness of the anti-HIV-1 ribozymes against appropriate target sequences is due to their catalytic activities rather than any antisense effect.

T1 - Geochronology and sedimentology of the lower Passaic River, New Jersey
AN - 16863822; 3785331
AB - In an attempt to characterize localized rates of sediment accretion, 10 sediment cores were collected from the lower reach of the Passaic River, a major tributary of Newark Bay, New Jersey. Sediments were assayed for super(210)Pb activity at predetermined depths and the rate of sediment accretion (cm yr super(-1)) was estimated from the least squares regression of the log of unsupported activity versus depth. Sediment accretion rates derived from super(210)Pb measurements (R sub(Pb)) were used to predict the depth interval within the core containing sediments deposited around 1954; subsequent super(137)Cs analyses were focused on this depth interval. Sediment accretion rates derived from super(137)Cs measurements (R sub(Cs)) were extrapolated from the depth of the 1954 horizon. Lead-210 derived sediment accretion rates in cores collected from a sediment bench extending along the inside bend on the southern shore of a meander in the river, ranged from 4.1 cm yr super(-1) to 10.2 cm yr super(-1) and averaged 6.8 cm yr super(-1). The R sub(Cs) estimates for cores from this area ranged from 3.8 cm yr super(-1) to 8.9 cm yr super(-1) and averaged 6.6 cm yr super(-1). The R sub(Cs) for cores collected in a more hydrologically dynamic reach of the river upstream of the sediment bench, were only 0.41 cm yr super(-1) and 0.66 cm yr super(-1). The results of this investigation indicate that this reach of the lower Passaic River is an area of high sediment accumulation, retaining much of the sediment load deposited from upstream and downstream sources. The rates of sediment accretion in the lower Passaic River are among the highest reported anywhere in the Newark Bay estuary.

T1 - Phytoplankton exudation: Exploitation of the microbial loop as a defence against algal viruses
AN - 16861823; 3788736
AB - Healthy phytoplankton cells exude dissolved organic matter (DOM). In a model, DOM exudation is demonstrated to be a cost-effective, indirect, means of reducing virus infection, which can be a major cause of phytoplankton mortality. Diffusion theory shows that, for a given biomass, small particles will have a much higher rate of adsorption of solutes than will large ones. Thus colloidal viruses are far more likely to come into contact with bacteria than with phytoplankton if the same biomasses are present. Bacteria can destroy viruses in a large proportion of contacts. Although flagellate protozoa have lower contact rates with viruses, they may consume more of the viruses that they do encounter and they deal with larger viruses particularly effectively. The exuded DOM supports bacterial growth, which in turn may support flagellates. Even fairly low levels of exudation can maintain the biomass of bacteria or small flagellates required to remove >50% of viruses before they have a chance to infect their host, at least for larger phytoplankton. High rates of virus removal may occur at the high exudation rates that are typical of late blooms. It is concluded that healthy phytoplankton cells exude DOM in order to remain healthy.

T1 - Cold stability of pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase of Flaveria brownii
AN - 16861423; 3788183
AB - The nucleotide sequences of the complementary DNA of pyruvate, P sub(i) dikinase (PPDK) from Flaveria bidentis, a C sub(4) plant which possesses a cold-sensitive form of PPDK, and Flaveria brownii, a 'C sub(4)-like' plant which possesses a cold-tolerant form of PPDK, were determined. PPDK was isolated from the leaves of both Flaveria species and purified and the N-terminal amino acid sequences characterised. Together with a maize PPDK cDNA, cDNA inserts which code for the mature form of PPDK of F. bidentis and of F. brownii were expressed in bacteria and the cold sensitivity of the expressed PPDK studied. The cold sensitivity of the PPDK expressed in bacteria mimics the cold sensitivity of PPDK found in vivo in all three plant species. This study indicates that the cold sensitivity of plant PPDK is controlled by the primary structure of the enzyme.

T1 - A new n-C sub(31:9) polyene hydrocarbon from Antarctic bacteria
AN - 16854491; 3782867
AB - The non-saponifiable neutral lipid composition of nineteen bacterial strains isolated from Antarctic sea ice were analysed. Nine of these strains produced a novel highly unsaturated straight chain hydrocarbon as the major non-saponifiable neutral lipid component. The compound was identified as hentriacontanonene (n-C sub(31:9)) by mass spectrometry and the formation of n-C sub(31:0) following hydrogenation. The occurrence of n-C sub(31:9) also correlated with the production of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) by the bacterial strains. n-C sub(31:9) may therefore represent a novel biomarker for the location of PUFA-producing bacteria from environmental samples.

T1 - beta -glucuronidase (GUS) transposons for ecological and genetic studies of rhizobia and other gram-negative bacteria
AN - 16851075; 3785521
AB - A series of transposons are described which contain the gusA gene, encoding beta -glucuronidase (GUS), expressed from a variety of promoters, both regulated and constitutive. The regulated promoters include the tac promoter which can be induced by IPTG, and nifH promoters which are symbiotically activated in legume nodules. One transposon contains gusA with a strong Shine-Dalgarno translation initiation context, but no promoter, and thus acts as a promoter-probe transposon. In addition, a gus operon deletion strain of Escherichia coli, and a transposon designed for use in chromosomal mapping using PFGE, are described. The GUS transposons are constructed in a mini-Tn5 system which can be transferred to Gram-negative bacteria by conjugation, and will form stable genomic insertions. Due to the absence of GUS activity in plants and many bacteria of economic importance, these transposons constitute powerful new tools for studying the ecology and population biology of bacteria in the environment and in association with plants, as well as for studies of the fundamental molecular basis of such interactions. The variety of assays available for GUS enable both quantitative assays and spatial localization of marked bacteria to be carried out.

T1 - The formation of trihalomethane from chemical disinfectants and humic substances in drinking water
AN - 16850690; 3786886
AB - This study investigates the bactericidal efficiency of the different kind of disinfectants as well as their effects on trihalomethane (THM) formation in the reaction with humic substances in the natural water. The application of chlorine as a disinfectant has caused much awareness and concern among health authorities in Thailand because it formed THM which are carcinogenic. Analysis revealed that with the same initial dosage of chlorine, the level of THM concentration will increase with increasing level of THM precursors. Alternative chemical disinfectants such as chlorine dioxide, ozone and peroxone (ozone + hydrogen peroxide) were also investigated. Ozone and peroxone were not only found to be very effective in Coliform inactivation but also were good agent in controlling THM formation through maximizing the total organic carbon (TOC) removal. For 99.9% Coliform inactivation, the minimum chlorine dosage required was 3 mg/L whereas the required dosage for ozone and peroxone were only 0.6 and 0.34 mg/L respectively. Peroxone application can also increase the THM removal by ozone to 20-30%.

T1 - Characteristics of invasion of HEp-2 cells by Providencia alcalifaciens
AN - 16849946; 3782743
AB - Previous studies with three isolates from diarrhoeal stools suggested that Providencia alcalifaciens is an invasive enteric pathogen that also causes actin condensation in infected cells. These findings were extended in the present study with a further 14 diarrhoeal stool isolates of P. alcalifaciens and HEp-2 cell monolayers for invasion assays. Studies on invasion characteristics with two selected isolates suggested that P. alcalifaciens required prior growth at 37 degree C for better invasion. Invasion and actin condensation were inhibited by an agent that inhibits microfilament formation, but not by agents that inhibit receptor-mediated endocytosis, microtubule formation, endosome acidification or receptor recycling. In time-course assays with HEp-2 cell monolayers maintained in medium containing gentamicin, P. alcalifaciens showed a small degree of multiplication after invasion of the cells, but viable bacteria could not be recovered over a 24-h period although the integrity of the cell monolayer was preserved during this period.

T1 - Sublethal effects of esfenvalerate pulse-exposure on spawning and non-spawning Australian crimson-spotted rainbowfish (Melanotaenia fluviatilis)
AN - 16843909; 3777223
AB - The spawning activity of the Australian crimson-spotted rainbowfish (Melanotaenia fluviatilis) was monitored over a period of nine days. After the first three days, groups of rainbowfish were pulse-exposed with the pyrethroid insecticide esfenvalerate at one of six nominal concentrations (0, 1, 3.2, 10.0, 32.0, or 100 mu g/L). The effects of esfenvalerate on fecundity, total hatch, hatchability of eggs, frequency of hatch defects, and the survival and growth of subsequent larvae were monitored. Hepatic cytochrome P-450 activity (ECOD, EROD, EFCOD) was measured six days post-exposure in controls and fish exposed to 32 mu g/L esfenvalerate. Cytochrome P-450 activity was also measured in single sex populations of male and female rainbowfish similarly exposed. The effects of esfenvalerate pulse-exposure on the lymphoproliferation of immune cells isolated from spawning and non-spawning groups of rainbowfish were examined in a second experiment. Over 75% of fish pulse-exposed to 100 mu g/L esfenvalerate died, and males in all treatments were more strongly affected than females. There was a negative correlation between pesticide concentration, fecundity, and total hatch. All eggs laid in the first three days post-exposure failed to hatch in some treatments, although esfenvalerate pulse-exposure did not increase the prevalence of deformed larvae. Esfenvalerate pulse-exposure significantly increased hepatic ECOD activity in male rainbowfish but had no effect on male EROD or EFCOD activities. There was no significant effect of esfenvalerate pulse-exposure on hepatic EROD, ECOD, or EFCOD activities of female rainbowfish. Unstimulated lymphocyte proliferation was lower in treated female rainbowfish than non-exposed female fish, and there was some evidence of an interaction with spawning activity.

T1 - Isolation of a flax (Linum usitatissimum) gene induced during susceptible infection by flax rust (Melampsora lini)
AN - 16837119; 3776204
AB - In a susceptible infection of flax (Linum usitatissimum), the obligate rust pathogen (Melampsora lini) can grow in the leaf without triggering the hypersensitive resistance response. The rust establishes specialized structures (haustoria) in plant mesophyll cells and induces changes in plant subcellular organization. Subtraction hybridization methods were used to isolate cDNA clones of mRNAs that have altered expression in infected leaves. Most of the cDNAs recovered were of fungal origin, but one clone, pFIS1 (flax inducible sequence No. 1), recovered from several independent experiments, was a plant-specified mRNA that showed a 10-fold increase in steady-state levels during susceptible growth. The increase in fis1 mRNA levels was not seen in the resistant reaction (hypersensitive reaction) and the predicted protein sequence (551 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 61 kDa) has no similarity to known pathogenesis-related proteins. Searches of sequence data bases showed that fis1 encodes a protein which contains amino acid sequence motifs that are conserved in all previously characterized aldehyde dehydrogenases.

T1 - Cytokines in the stools of children with complicated shigellosis
AN - 16837081; 3771457
AB - The pathogenesis of the systemic complications, leukemoid reaction and hemolytic uremic syndrome, associated with Shigella dysenteriae type 1 infection is not well understood. The excessive production of proinflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF- alpha ) and interleukin 6 (IL-6), has been suggested as a possible factor. We measured IL-6 and TNF- alpha in stools of 56 children with S. dysenteriae 1 infection and 29 children without any apparent infection, all age 12 to 60 months. Sixteen children with S. dysenteriae 1 infection had leukemoid reaction or hemolytic uremic syndrome (complicated shigellosis), while the others did not (uncomplicated shigellosis). Stool IL-6 and TNF- alpha concentrations were higher in children with uncomplicated shigellosis than in children with complicated shigellosis (P = 0.009 and < 0.001, respectively) or in uninfected children (P < 0.001). It is concluded that complicated infection is not associated with higher concentrations of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF- alpha in stool.

T1 - Development of gusA reporter gene constructs for cereal transformation: Availability of plant transformation vectors from the CAMBIA molecular genetic resource service
AN - 16835955; 3772123
AB - The use of reporter genes to characterise sequence elements that act to regulate gene expression in transgenic plants has been vital to the development of foreign gene expression strategies for use in cereal transformation. The gusA locus of Escherichia coli, which encodes the enzyme beta -glucuronidase (GUS), is by far the most popular reporter gene used in plant transformation. In this paper we extend the utility of the GUS reporter gene system in cereal transformation by describing and evaluating a number of novel constructs suitable for use in direct gene transfer experiments. These plasmids are all available from the Molecular Genetic Resource Service of the Center for the Application of Molecular Biology to International Agriculture.

T1 - Predicting catchment-scale soil moisture status with limited field measurements
AN - 16835737; 3776726
AB - A catchment-wide soil moisture index based on spatially distributed point measurements of soil moisture is used to describe the temporal trend in regional soil moisture status in a 26 km super(2) catchment in south-eastern Australia. The temporal variation in runoff, evaporation and soil moisture storage is simulated with a modification of the lumped SFB water balance model of Boughton (1984), which assumes a fixed bucket size, and with the variable infiltration capacity (VIC) model of Wood et al. (1992), which assumes a variable bucket representation. Comparison of simulated catchment soil moisture storage and the soil moisture index based on measurements indicates that both models can make useful predictions of soil moisture status at the catchment scale, with the VIC model performing slightly better than the SFB model. It is also shown that the quasi-distributed VIC model can predict the relative wetness at individual locations, given their relative frequency of occurrence, thus allowing the disaggregation of catchment-scale storage values to point-scale soil moisture values.

T1 - Modelling recharge from small upland catchments in northern Victoria
AN - 16835157; 3771863
AB - The rate of discharge at any point of a landscape depends on land use, climate, soil characteristics, hydrogeology, and topography. Two models were models were used to evaluate the relative impacts of these factors on recharge and discharge rates in a catchment near Tatong in the dry lands of northern Victoria. The first, a one-dimensional cropping systems model, evaluated the impact of land use, climate, and soil characteristics on recharge and discharge. The second, a profile groundwater model, evaluated the effect of topography and hydrogeology on recharge and discharge in sloping catchments. In this report we present the methodology, description, and calibration of the latter. The profile groundwater model was developed using MODFLOW, a U.S. Geological Survey groundwater flow model, and data from the study site at Tatong. The calibrated models has successfully simulated the groundwater flow system and has shown good agreement with available field data. The calibrated two-dimensional model can be extended to analyse the sensitivity of drainage discharges to aquifer parameters, topography, change in land use, and drainage works. While the two-dimensional model has provided valuable insight into the aquifer behaviour and recharge/discharge values, it could be calibrated more accurately three-dimensionally. This would enable all groundwater observation bores to be incorporated and more accurate modelling of flowing artesian wells.

T1 - Water use, plant development, and capillary upflow from saline water tables in four soils for irrigated maize
AN - 16829005; 3768982
AB - Maize plant development and soil water balances were studied in a drainage lysimeter facility. Maize was grown on four soil types, each of which had a saline water table maintained at one of three depths (60, 90 and 120 cm). The phasic development of the maize plants was uniform across all soil type - water table height treatments, and was similar to maize grown over a fresh water table. Root growth was generally lower with water tables at 90 cm than the other two depths. Root length density generally decreased with increasing soil depth. Evapotranspiration, calculated from lysimeter water balances, declined with increasing water table depth in three of the four soil types. In the fourth, evapotranspiration was lower at a water table depth of 120 cm than 60 cm, but highest in the 90 cm treatment. Height and dry weight of plants in each lysimeter were well correlated with evapotranspiration (r super(2) values from 0.65 to 0.83). Capillary upflow from the water table, both absolute values and as a proportion of evapotranspiration, followed the same trends with water table depth as did evapotranspiration. Unexpectedly, the proportion of evapotranspiration from capillary upflow was greater with the saline water tables at 60 cm depth than with fresh water tables at a similar depth.

T1 - Analysis and fate of acephate and its metabolite, methamidophos, in pepper and cucumber
AN - 16828988; 3772477
AB - Levels of acephate (Orthene super(R)) and its principle metabolite, methamidophos, in/on greenhouse-grown pepper and cucumber fruits and leaves in relation to the applied methamidophos were monitored. Dislodgeable and total residues of acephate and methamidophos were determined by gas-liquid chromatography equipped with a flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and were confirmed by nitrogen phosphorus detector (GC-NPD). The dissipation curves of the residues followed first-order kinetics (R super(2) > 0.96). Initial residues of acephate on fruits varied between pepper (15.12 ppm) and cucumber (2.16 ppm). Total residues in fruits and leaves determined at intervals following application revealed the greater persistence of acephate on pepper fruits (half-life [t sub(1/2)] of 6 d) than on cucumber fruits (t sub(1/2) was 3.7 d). T sub(1/2) values for the applied methamidophos were 4.7 and 5.3 d on pepper and cucumber fruits, respectively. Deacetylation of acephate (formation of its metabolite) was detectable 1 d following acephate treatment and reached a maximum of 2.05% of initial acephate residues 3 d after application on pepper fruits. On cucumber fruits, acephate metabolite reached a maximum of 2.12% one wk following application. No acephate residues were detected above the limit of detection of 0.001 ppm in pepper fruits 50 d following acephate application while its metabolite was detectable at that time (detectability limit was 0.0001 ppm).

T1 - Satellite remote sensing of polar snow and ice: Present status and future directions
AN - 16828396; 3768958
AB - Polar snow and ice masses exert a profound influence on global climate and ocean circulation, and are in turn influenced by climate. Satellite remote sensing constitutes the only practical and systematic means of gaining long-term overviews of any change or variability that may be occurring in key snow and ice parameters. Current relevant satellite sensors are reviewed and future developments evaluated to determine how these may lead to improved retrievals of the key parameters. Sensors to be launched on satellite platforms planned for the end of the century and beyond include both improved versions of existing sensors (such as MODIS) and new classes of sensors (such as imaging spectrometers and laser rangers/altimeters) applied to polar remote sensing for the first time.

T1 - Distribution and possible sources of polychlorinated biphenyls in dated sediments from the Newark Bay Estuary, New Jersey
AN - 16827716; 3769463
AB - Two hundred and forty-six sediment samples from Newark Bay, New Jersey and its tributaries (the Passaic River, Hackensack River, Kill van Kull, and Arthur Kill and its tributaries, the Elizabeth River and Rahway River) were assayed for commercial Aroclor registered mixtures and non-ortho and mono-ortho coplanar polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) between 1990 and 1993. In addition, chronological profiles of PCBs in sediments from pre-1940 to the present were determined using radioisotope activities of super(210)Pb and super(137)Cs. The objectives of this study were to (a) determine the spatial and temporal distributions of PCBs in sediments, (b) identify their possible sources, and (c) evaluate the potential for sediment toxicity within the Newark Bay Estuary. Aroclors registered 1248 and 1254 were detected in surface and buried sediments in each waterway. The highest concentrations occurred primarily in buried sediments from the Passaic River and Newark Bay at depths corresponding to historical deposition during the 1960s and 1970s, the peak manufacturing period for Aroclors registered . In surface sediments, the highest concentrations were measured in the Passaic River, Rahway River, Kill Van Kull, and ship berths at Port Elizabeth and Port Newark in Newark Bay. Coplanar PCBs were detected throughout the estuary at much lower concentrations than the Aroclors. Results from the Passaic River indicate that the lower reach is contaminated with relatively high levels of PCBs, in part due to a relatively high depositional environment and the accumulation of PCB-contaminated sediments from local and upstream sources. Comparisons to available benchmark sediment quality values and calculated toxicity equivalent concentrations raise a concern that Aroclors registered 1248 and 1254 and coplanar PCBs, respectively, may adversely effect aquatic organisms in the estuary.

T1 - Meconium analysis for cocaine: A validation study and comparison with paired urine analysis
AN - 16826310; 3773466
AB - We established the validity of a drug-screening method to detect the presence of cocaine or benzoylecgonine or both in meconium and then undertook an analysis of results from urine and meconium specimens obtained concurrently from neonates within 3 days of birth. Meconium specimens from 82 consecutive newborns were analyzed using fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA), Kinetic Interaction of Microparticles in Solution (KIMS), and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Each meconium specimen was analyzed by all three methods. Fifty-four paired urine and meconium specimens were obtained over a 13-month period from a neonatal intensive care unit. Urine drug testing was performed by immunoassay (enzyme multiplied immunoassay [EMIT] technique), whereas meconium specimens utilized FPIA with GC-MS confirmation on all but one specimen (due to insufficient quantity). Ten true positives were found by GC-MS, 10 positives were found by FPIA, and 70 positives were found by KIMS. Of the 54 paired samples, 39 samples tested negative for cocaine in both urine and meconium; four specimens were positive by both routes; 10 specimens were negative in urine but positive in the meconium; and one specimen tested positive in urine but negative in the meconium. Thus, 9.3% of the urine specimens tested positive, and 25.9% of meconium samples tested positive (p = .011; McNemar's Test). We conclude that screening meconium specimens by FPIA followed by GC-MS confirmation of screened positives yields highly accurate determinations of the presence of cocaine or benzoylecgonine or both in meconium and that testing of meconium for cocaine and its metabolites is more sensitive than testing of urine.

T1 - Mode coupling in the vibration response of asymmetric buildings
AN - 16823633; 3765324
AB - Coupling of the lateral and torsional modes in the vibration response of asymmetric buildings is treated using simple three-dimensional computer models. This study will be useful in predicting the torsional coupling in the earthquake response of the building. The computer models are based on energy methods and assume that each floor is a rigid diaphragm with three degrees of freedom (two lateral and one rotational) and can analyse buildings which are unsymmetrical in plan and/or elevation. To treat various types of asymmetry, buildings which are square, rectangular and L-shaped in plan are considered. In these buildings, the position of the core is varied to obtain different degrees of asymmetry and the consequent coupling of the modes of vibration. Numerical examples are presented where the natural periods of vibration and associated mode shapes are obtained for different degrees of asymmetry. The mode shapes demonstrate the torsional coupling inherent in asymmetric buildings. The relationship between the coupled mode shapes obtained in the free vibration analysis and the anticipated dynamic response is discussed.

T1 - Scale issues in boundary-layer meteorology: Surface energy balances in heterogeneous terrain
AN - 16823285; 3768832
AB - This paper, part review and part new work, falls into three main sections. The first is a review of scale issues in both hydrology and meteorology, focusing on their origins in the water and energy conservation equations, integrated over control volumes of different scales. Several guidelines for scale translations are identified. The second section reviews the upscaling problem in boundary-layer meteorology, setting out two "flux-matching" criteria for upscaling models of land-air fluxes: the conservation requirement that surface fluxes average linearly and the practical requirement that model form be preserved between scales. By considering the effects of boundary conditions, it is shown that the combination or Penman-Monteith equation is a model for elemental energy fluxes which leads to physically consistent flux-matching rules for upscaling surface descriptors (resistances). These rules are tested, along with some other possibilities, and found to perform well. The third section tests the hypothesis that regionally averaged energy balances over land surfaces are insensitive to the scale of heterogeneity, X. Heterogeneity is classified as microscale when X less than or equal to U sub(m)T sub(*), mesoscale when U sub(m)T sub(*) less than or equal to X less than or equal to U sub(m)T sub(e), and macroscale when U sub(m)T sub(e) less than or equal to X [where U sub(m) is the mean wind speed in the convective boundary layer (CBL) and T sub(*) and T sub(e) the convective and entrainment time scales, respectively]. A CBL slab model is used to show that regionally averaged energy fluxes are remarkably insensitive to X in both the macroscale ranges. Other reviewed evidence suggests that the mesoscale range behaves similarly in dry conditions. Questions remain about the consequences of clouds and precipitation for regionally averaged surface energy fluxes.

T1 - Sterols of 14 species of marine diatoms (Bacillariophyta)
AN - 16823087; 3769311
AB - The sterol compositions of 14 species of marine diatoms were determined by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. A variety of sterol profiles were found. The sterols 24-methylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3 beta -ol, cholest-5-en-3 beta -ol, and 24-methylcholesta-5,24(28)-dien-3 beta -ol, previously described as the most common sterols found in diatoms, were major sterols in only a few of the species. In light of this and other recent data, it is clear that these three sterols are not typical constituents of many diatom species. Most of the centric species examined had 24-methylcholesta-5,24(28)-dien-3 beta -ol and 24-methylcholest-5-en-3 beta -ol as two of their major sterols. The exception was Rhizosolenia setigera, which possessed cholesta-5,24-dien-3 beta -ol as its single major sterol. In contrast to the centric species, the pennate diatoms examined did not have any particular sterols common to most species. Minor levels of Delta super(7)-sterols, rarely found in large amounts in diatoms, were found in four species. C sub(29) sterols were found in many species; seven contained 24-ethylcholest-5-en-3 beta -ol and three contained 24-ethylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3 beta -ol, reinforcing previous suggestions that C sub(29) sterols are not restricted to higher plants and macroalgae. 24-Ethylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3 beta -ol may prove to be useful for taxonomy of the genus Amphora and the order Thalassiophysales. A major sterol of Fragilaria pinnata was the uncommon algal sterol 23,24-dimethylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3 beta -ol. Cholesta-5,24-dien-3 beta -ol was the only sterol found in the culture of Nitzschia closterium. This differed from previous reports of 24-methylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3 beta -ol as the single major sterol in N. closterium. Two C sub(28) sterols possessing an unusual side chain were found in Thalassionema nitzschioides, a C sub(28:2) sterol (16%) and a C sub(28:1) sterol in lower abundance (2.5%), which may be 23-methylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3 beta -ol and 23-methyl-5 alpha -cholest-22E-en-3 beta -ol, respectively. The species Cylindrotheca fusiformis, T. nitzschioides, and Skeletonema sp. may be useful as direct sources of cholesterol in mariculture feeds due to their moderate to high content of this sterol.

T1 - Scaling theory to extrapolate individual tree water use to stand water use
AN - 16822682; 3768824
AB - Extrapolation of measurements of water use by individual trees to that for a stand of trees is a critical step in linking plant physiology and hydrology. Limitations in sampling resources and variation in tree sizes within a stand necessitate the use of some scaling relationship. Further, to scale tree water use in space as well as time, the relationship must reflect the changing availabilities of energy and water supply. It is argued here that tree leaf area is the most appropriate covariate of water use to achieve this aim. However, empirical results show that the relationship is not always linear. A theory is developed, based on the concepts of hydrological equilibrium (sensu Nemani and Running, 1989) and ecological field theory (Walker et al., 1989) which accounts for (occasional) non-linear behaviour of the flux/leaf area relationship in evergreen trees. A key feature of this theory is the notion of a non-linear, quasi-equilibrium reflecting plant water stress. An equation is derived from these concepts and a standard, explicit treatment of tree water use (Landsberg and McMurtrie, 1984), which is used to characterize this relationship. This equation has the form Q = aIA + b psi sub(s)A super(f). The theory is tested against field data and published reports on Eucalyptus tree water use.

T1 - Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon and petroleum hydrocarbon contamination in sediment from the Newark Bay estuary, New Jersey
AN - 16810625; 3760126
AB - The presence of numerous industrial and municipal sources such as former creosote wood preserving facilities, petroleum storage and refinery facilities, paint and chemical manufacturers, combined sewer overflows, and sewage treatment facilities along the shores of Newark Bay, New Jersey and its major tributaries suggests the potential for widespread contamination by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and petroleum hydrocarbons. In this study, the concentrations and distributions of 19 PAHs and total extractable petroleum hydrocarbon (TEPH) were determined in 213 sediment samples obtained from 58 sediment cores collected between November 1991 and March 1993 from the Arthur Kill, Elizabeth River, Hackensack River, Kill Van Kull, Newark Bay, Upper New York Bay, and Rahway River. Chronological profiles of PAH and TEPH deposition from pre-1930 to the present were determined in each sediment core using super(137)Cs and super(210)Pb radioisotope measurements. The concentrations of total PAHs (tPAH) and individual PAHs were compared to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) benchmark sediment effects-range median (ER-M) values. The objectives of this study were to: (a) determine the spatial and temporal distributions of PAHs in sediments; (b) identify their possible sources; and (c) assess the potential for sediment toxicity within the estuary. The results indicate elevated concentrations of PAHs and TEPH in surface and buried sediments throughout the estuary, particularly in the Elizabeth River, the Arthur Kill, and in the Passaic River above the Dundee Dam and below the Jackson Street Bridge. Sediments collected from ship berths at Port Newark and Port Elizabeth in Newark Bay were also found to contain elevated levels of PAHs and TEPH. The concentrations of PAHs and TEPH in sediment generally increase with depth throughout the estuary. Comparisons to NOAA ER-M values indicate that the concentrations of many PAHs in surface and buried sediments at several locations in the estuary pose a significant hazard to aquatic organisms. Radiodating of sediment cores reveals that the highest concentrations of PAHs, and the greatest potential hazards to aquatic biota, occur in sediments deposited during the 1950s. Although the major inputs of PAHs are probably combustion sources and urban runoff entering the estuary through combined sewer overflows and storm drains, the unusually high concentrations of PAHs and TEPH found in some sediments may be best explained by point source inputs or catastrophic oil spills.

T1 - DDT, DDD, and DDE contamination of sediment in the Newark Bay estuary, New Jersey
AN - 16809915; 3760125
AB - Two hundred and forty-six surface and buried sediment samples from Newark Bay, New Jersey, and its major tributaries (Passaic River, Hackensack River, Newark Bay, Arthur Kill, Elizabeth River, and Kill Van Kull) were assayed for p,p'-dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (p,p'-DDT), p,p'-dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane (p,p'-DDD), and p,p'-dichlorodiphenylchloroethylene (p,p'-DDE) between February 1990 and March 1993. Chronological profiles in sediments from pre-1940 to the present were determined by radioisotope activities of super(210)Pb and super(137)Cs. The concentrations of these chemicals were compared to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) benchmark sediment values (Long and Morgan 1991). The objectives were to (a) determine the spatial and temporal distributions of DDT compounds in sediments, (b) identify possible sources, and (c) assess the potential for sediment toxicity within the estuary. Mean concentrations in surface sediments in individual waterways ranged from 5 to 473 mu g/kg for p,p'-DDT, 18 to 429 mu g/kg for p,p'-DDD, and 5 to 111 mu g/kg for p,p'-DDE. A regional background mean concentration of approximately 100-300 mu g/kg capital sigma p,p'-DDT (sum of p,p'-DDT, p,p'-DDD, and p,p'-DDE) was measured in surface sediments throughout the estuary, with the exception of the Arthur Kill, where mean concentrations exceeded 700 mu g/kg. The elevated concentrations found in recently deposited surface sediments in the Arthur Kill may be due to the presence of ongoing sources. The highest concentrations in buried sediments occurred in the lower Passaic River at depths corresponding to historical deposits from 1940 to 1970, the peak time period for production and usage of DDT in the United States. Comparisons to NOAA benchmark sediment toxicity values indicate that p,p'-DDT, p,p'-DDD, and p,p'-DDE concentrations in surface sediments may pose a potential hazard to fish, shellfish, and other benthic and demersal organisms in some portions of the estuary, particularly in the upper and lower Arthur Kill.

T1 - The effects of alcohol on preparation for expected and unexpected events
AN - 16809470; 3761489
AB - The present paper is concerned with investigating the effects of alcohol in situations where unexpected events occur and responses need to be cancelled and reprogrammed. One experiment is reported which involved the modification of an eight-choice reaction-time task, employing the priming procedures of Posner to investigate the effects of alcohol on decision times to expected and unexpected events. The experiment involved a series of valid pre-cues in which accurate information was provided about the up-coming response, and a series of invalid pre-cues in which the "wrong" information was given to subjects. The effects of alcohol (0.09% BAC) was significant on the invalid trials, in which reaction time slowed significantly and error rates increased significantly. The results are discussed in terms of response processing and attention-switching.

T1 - Sewage circulating reactor -- an approach to recirculating wastewater in sewers
AN - 16808487; 3760361
AB - This study deals with recirculation of wastewater so that a portion of the conveyance conduit works as a circulating biological reactor (referred to as Sewage Circulating Reactor). Experiments were performed with a pilot scale unit made of 87.12 m long galvanized iron channel in which wastewater was recirculated back to the starting point. Surface reaeration was the only source of oxygen and the unit was first fed with synthetic wastewater at Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and Total Nitrogen (TN) loading rates of 16.81-62.02 and 1.8-7.84 gm super(-2)/d respectively. Later campus wastewater was fed in at loading rates of 15.73-19.06 gCODm super(-2)/d and 4.66-5.44 gTNm super(-2)/d. An optimal TN removal of 0.77 gNm super(-2)/d was obtained at a TN loading rate of 3.78 gTNm super(-2)/d. The corresponding COD loading and removal rates were 27.45 and 22.0 gCODm super(-2)/d respectively. A distinct decrease in DO level in the system was observed with increasing loading rates. This resulted in decrease in nitrification rates at higher loadings. In the case of campus wastewater, the biofilm development was thicker and more or less evenly distributed along the channel as compared to those with synthetic wastewater. A design equation was developed and used together with empirical equations to design a looped sewerage system.

T1 - Characterization of levJ, a sucrase/fructanase-encoding gene from Actinomyces naeslundii T14V, and comparison of its product with other sucrose-cleaving enzymes
AN - 16802395; 3755430
AB - A library of Actinomyces naeslundii T14V DNA was constructed in plasmid pUC18 and from this several sucrose-positive clones were isolated. Evidence was obtained that all these clones contained the same gene. One clone, which carried a plasmid that was named pPNG102, was chosen for further study. It was found that the enzyme specified by this plasmid hydrolyzed sucrose, raffinose, inulin and levan, but not dextran, and did not synthesize fructan or glucan from sucrose. The sequence of the insert in pPNG102 was determined and was found to contain a large ORF that specifies a polypeptide of 99 319 Da with similarity to other sucrases. This gene was named levJ. The deduced amino acid (aa) sequence contained both a potential signal sequence and potential C-terminal cell envelope attachment domain. Alignments revealed an internal 331-aa domain not present in other levanases and sucrases. A neighbour-joining tree showed that sucrases of eukaryotic origin form a cluster with eubacterial sucrase/fructanases, and this cluster does not include other eubacterial sucrases. It is postulated that certain eukaryotic sucrase-encoding genes are of eubacterial origin.

T1 - Development of a photochemical airshed model for Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
AN - 16795236; 3751532
AB - This paper describes the development of an airshed modelling system for the Environment Protection Authority of NSW (EPANSW). The airshed modelling system is one of the key outcomes of the Metropolitan Air Quality Study (MAQS). It will provide the tools necessary to aid in the development of an Air Quality Management Plan for photochemical smog within the Sydney, Lower Hunter, and Illawarra regions. The three dimensional airshed model was run for a 2 day generic Sydney oxidant event using historical data and some preliminary results from other MAQS projects. Predicted maximum smog concentrations obtained from the simulations appear to be comparable with the observations.

T1 - A test for lottery recruitment among four Banksia species based on their demography and biological attributes
AN - 16789626; 3748308
AB - A stage-by-stage protocol for identifying simple or biased lottery, or non-lottery, patterns of seedling recruitment is outlined. For a simple (weighted) lottery to apply, the proportion of total individuals accounted for by one species at one stage of recruitment plotted against the proportion accounted for at a previous stage over a wide range of recruitment conditions should obey a linear regression with a = 0 and b = 1. For a biased lottery to hold, the regression is significant but a not equal to 0 and/or b not equal to 1. Demographic, size and water relations data were collected over 3 years for four co-occurring Banksia species following two contrasting experimental fires. The first summer was exceptionally wet and the second was exceptionally hot and dry. Seedlings still alive by the 3rd year relative to the fire-killed parent plants conformed to a biased lottery in the case of B. speciosa and B. baxteri, while B. coccinea and B. pulchella had no mathematical structure (mean of the proportional ratios not equal to 1). Intervening stages, beginning with seed release, showed transient deterministic or simple lottery patterns in some cases, but the overriding trend was for biased lotteries. B. speciosa dominated the responses, with greater seed release than expected, fewer initial seedlings, lottery survival of 1st year seedlings and greater survival of 2nd year seedlings, when compared with the previous stages. Large seeds and subsequent high growth rates enabled B. speciosa to exploit soil water preferentially during the severe summer drought. The trend for B. speciosa to replace other species may be cancelled by stochastic processes not operating in this particular study.

T1 - Study on aerated biofilter process under high temperature conditions
AN - 16788815; 3747491
AB - A biological aerated filter combines bacterial degradation of pollutants by fixed biomass with physical filtration in a single reactor at a pilot plant, was utilized for organics removal under tropical climatic conditions. Modified domestic wastewater was used as feed, in the upflow mode. The process consisted of a granular media bed of polystyrene with a specific gravity less than water. Headloss during biofiltration was studied as a function of wastewater temperature, flow velocity and time. Experiments were conducted at 4 different temperatures (30, 38, 45 and 55 degree C) with 4 velocities (2, 4, 6 and 8 m h super(-1)). The lowest filter run time range was 5.5-10 hours at 38 degree C, with over 84% of the soluble COD removal at all velocities investigated. A decreasing gradient of biomass from bottom to top of the reactor was observed. The optimal suspended solids removal occurred at 30 degree C with 6 m h super(-1) velocity indicating that at lower temperatures, maximum suspended solids removal could be obtained. The results indicated that effluent SS could be less than 30 mg L super(-1) meeting the typical standard for secondary treated effluent.

T1 - Dispersal of the Old World screw-worm fly Chrysomya bezziana
AN - 16786138; 3748152
AB - Dispersal of the Old World screw-worm fly, Chrysomya bezziana Villeneuve, was studied in Papua New Guinea by releasing radio-isotope labelled, laboratory-reared flies and collecting their labelled egg masses from sentinel cattle. A log-linear model was developed to describe recapture rate. Distance was found to dominate the model and was represented by a bilinear ('broken-stick') term as log-distance. Further terms in the model such as attractiveness of the site (estimated from the number of non-labelled egg masses), the season of the year and a time trend were statistically significant but of minor importance. From the model, the median distance females dispersed before depositing an egg mass was 10.8 km. The maximum distance from the release site that egg masses were recovered was 100 km. The dispersal ability of C. bezziana is discussed in terms of its impact on the prospects of eradicating this species using SIRM if an outbreak occurred in Australia.

T1 - Acute intra-abomasal toxicity of tannic acid in sheep
AN - 16785847; 3743369
AB - Acute tannic acid toxicity was studied in 6 adult Merino ewes by administering 7-10% (w/v) tannic acid solution once into the abomasum via an abomasal fistula at dose rates of 0.5, 1.0 or 2.0 g tannic acid/kg body weight. Samples of blood, urine and abomasal fluid were collected over a 48-h period before the sheep were necropsied 48 h after dosing. Dose rates of 1.0 and 2.0 g tannic acid/kg body weight produced abomasal, liver and kidney lesions. The abomasum had superficial mucosal erosions, hemorrhage and submucosal edema; the liver showed midzonal or periacinar coagulative necrosis; and the kidneys had focal tubular vacuolation and necrosis. In sheep dosed with 1.0 g tannic acid/kg body weight, there was a significant (P<0.01) decrease in plasma phosphate and an increase in plasma aspartate aminotransferase and urea levels. Plasma total protein concentrations significantly (P < 0.05) decreased 24 h after dosing, but returned to normal by 48 h. By 4 h after dosing, abomasal fluid pH was significantly (P < 0.01) higher than predosing value, whereas urine pH significantly (P < 0.05) decreased. Both abomasal fluid and urine pH returned to normal 48 h after dosing. The liver and kidney damage seen in this study, in contrast to the methemoglobinemia without liver and kidney lesions previously reported when sheep were given tannic acid by oral gavage (1), suggest that, in cases of natural poisoning, tannins are not released from plant material until it enters the abomasum.

T1 - Comparative evaluation of benthic microalgal production in an existing marina and proposed marina site in western Long Island Sound, USA
AN - 16785416; 3749276
AB - As part of an effort to evaluate the impacts of marina construction on shallow water estuarine habitats, benthic microalgal productivity and biomass were measured at a proposed marina site off Davids Island, NY and in the Cedar Island Marina, CT. Both sites are located in western Long Island Sound. Previous estimates of microalgal productivity for these two sites differed substantially (4.8-8.8 mgC/m super(2)/d and 426-1010 mgC/m super(2)/d, respectively). These differences could not be attributed to variations in the biomass of the algae between the two sites, as mean chlorophyll-a levels in sediments differed by only a factor of 1.6 (94 and 153 mg/m super(2), respectively). However, whereas the Davids Island data were obtained by direct measurements of C super(14) fixation at light levels representing about 1 percent of surface irradiance, the Cedar Island Marina data were generated using a chlorophyll-normalized C-fixation rate, and by assuming that benthic microalgae were exposed to 100 percent surface irradiance for 12 hours per day. This approach may have resulted in gross overestimates of benthic microalgal productivity in the marina, and may account for the differences observed between the two sites. Alternatively, it was theorized that the differences might be due to differing contributions of resuspended algae to surficial sediment productivity at the two sites. To test this theory, productivity (estimated by C super(14)-fixation rates) and biomass (estimated by chlorophyll-a levels) of microalgae were measured in surface sediment samples and water samples collected immediately above sediments at both sites.

T1 - An evaluation of current methods for developing sediment quality guidelines for 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin
AN - 16780317; 3739838
AB - There are currently few proposed sediment quality guidelines and no promulgated regulatory criteria for 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) in sediments. Among the eight major approaches used to develop sediment quality guidelines, only three have been used to date in developing proposed guidelines for TCDD: the background method, the equilibrium partitioning (EqP) method, and the tissue-residue based (TRB) method. At present, nineteen proposed sediment quality guidelines for TCDD have been proposed in the U.S. and other countries, including seven derived exclusively for the protection of human health, seven derived exclusively for the protection of aquatic organisms and/or wildlife, and five that were derived for the protection of both human and ecological receptors. In this paper, the technical basis and proposed regulatory objectives of these guidelines were evaluated in an effort to assess the feasibility of deriving a national sediment quality guideline for TCDD. Guidelines derived from the background method inferred that TCDD concentrations in sediments should not exceed the detection limit (1 to 10 parts per trillion; pg/g) of the currently accepted high resolution gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy analytical method, and for one guideline, an outdated analytical detection limit of 1,000 parts per trillion. Guidelines developed by the EqP and TRB methods varied over several orders of magnitude (0.014 to 210 parts per trillion, dry weight basis; and 200 to 1 x 10 super(7) pg/gOC). These large variations are the result of data gaps in our knowledge of TCDD toxicity, and the physical and chemical parameters that govern its fate and transport in aquatic systems.

T1 - Validation of biomarkers of marine pollution exposure in sand flathead using Aroclor 1254
AN - 16770851; 3736329
AB - The Australian marine fish, sand flathead (Platycephalus bassensis), were exposed to the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) mixture Aroclor 1254 by intraperitoneal injections of 10, 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg in corn oil. Cytochrome P450 content, ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase (ECOD), ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase (EROD) and uridine diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase (UDP-GT) activities were measured to quantify liver detoxication enzyme response. The type and amount of metabolised PCBs in the bile were quantified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. EROD activity increased in a dose-dependent manner. At the 400 mg/kg dose, EROD activity was 2.64 plus or minus 0.34 nmol/min per g liver (0.07 plus or minus 0.01 nmol/min per mg protein), approximately 5 times control levels (P < 0.05). UDP-GT activity at 400 mg/kg was 63.99 plus or minus 8.69 U/g liver (1.53 plus or minus 0.29 U/mg protein), an increase of 75% above control levels. Protein content of the liver increased 1.5-fold to 41.25 plus or minus 2.52 mg/g liver and cytochrome P450 content increased 1.8-fold to 6.82 plus or minus 0.91 nmol/g liver. No differences with treatment were seen in ECOD activity. Metabolised PCBs excreted in the bile were hydroxylated and conjugated with glucuronic acid or sulphate, and the increases in production of biliary metabolites paralleled the increases in total liver EROD activity. These results indicate that EROD and UDP-GT activities and biliary metabolites are sensitive biomarkers of exposure and that sand flathead represents an appropriate fish for use in further biomonitoring work.

T1 - Growth and N sub(2)-fixation of soybeans inoculated with strains of Bradyrhizobium japonicum differing in energetic efficiency and PHB utilization
AN - 16769408; 3738115
AB - The hypothesis, that accumulation of poly-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) in bacteroids of soybean root nodules and utilization of this polymer during pod-filling, are factors in N sub(2) fixation during seed development, was tested in a glasshouse experiment. Lincoln soybeans, inoculated with strains of B. japonicum of different energetic efficiency (Hup super(+) or Hup super(-)), were grown under bacteriologically-controlled conditions in open pots of combined-N-free medium, until the pod-filling stage. Nitrogen fixation was measured as accumulation of total N in shoots (including seeds). Bacteroids, prepared from tap-root nodules at intervals during growth, were assessed for PHB and protein content. During vegetative growth, all of the strains were of similar symbiotic effectiveness but during pod-filling, plants inoculated with the three Hup super(+) strains fixed N sub(2) and grew at about twice the rates of plants inoculated with the three Hup super(-) strains. Bacteroids of all three Hup super(+) strains accumulated PHB (from 40 to >50% dry wt) during vegetative plant growth and utilized it during pod-filling. Two of three Hup super(-) strains accumulated little PHB in the bacteroids and all three utilized little or none of it during pod-filling. These results are discussed in relation to a supply of energy-yielding substrates to nodules during pod-filling, to the influence of energetic efficiency of the bacteroids on PHB accumulation and to the role of PHB utilization in sustaining nodule O sub(2)-demand during seed development.

T1 - Diversity and genetic structure of a natural population of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii isolated from Trifolium subterraneum L.
AN - 16769269; 3733646
AB - A collection of 121 isolates of Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar (bv.) trifolii was obtained from root nodules of Trifolium subterraneum L. (subclover) plants growing in an established pasture. The collection consisted of a single isolate from each of 18 plants sampled from seven microplots. The following year, a further 28 and 27 isolates were collected from the first and seventh sampling points, respectively. Analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) of both chromosomal and Sym (symbiotic) plasmid DNA and multilocus enzyme electrophoresis (MLEE) were used to assess the diversity, genetic relationships and structure of this population. Symbiotic effectiveness tests were used to examine the symbiotic phenotype of each isolate collected in the first year. Analysis of RFLPs of the first year isolates revealed 13 chromosomal types and 25 Sym plasmid types. Similar Sym plasmid types were grouped into 14 families containing 1-6 members. No new chromosomal types and six new Sym plasmid types were detected in the second year. The symbiotic effectiveness of the first year isolates of the same Sym plasmid type was similar. Significant differences in symbiotic effectiveness were detected between different Sym plasmid types in the same plasmid family. Representative isolates of each chromosomal type x Sym plasmid type identified in the first year were analysed using multilocus enzyme electrophoresis. Mean genetic diversity per locus was high (0.559). Enzyme electrophoresis revealed 17 electrophoretic types (ETs). Cluster analysis of the enzyme data revealed large genetic diversity amongst the ETs. Strong linkage disequilibrium was observed for the population as a whole, i.e. clonal population structure, but significantly less disequilibrium was observed among a cluster of ETs suggesting that recombination occurred between ETs within the cluster. Our results revealed that a population of naturally occurring isolates of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii can be genetically diverse and support the possibility that recombination plays a role in generating new genotypes.

T1 - Sources of pollution and sediment contamination in Newark Bay, New Jersey
AN - 16763324; 3740337
AB - A review of historical water quality and sediment quality data and chemical body burdens in biota reveals significant levels of a wide range of chemicals and water quality stressors throughout the Newark Bay, New Jersey estuary. The estuary, which encompasses the Passaic River, Hackensack River, Kill van Kull, and the Arthur Kill, has been heavily impacted by both industrial and urban expansion for more than 200 years. The available information was sufficient to identify the major sources of pollution and the contributions of various metals and organic chemicals to the aquatic environment. Mass loadings for several chemicals and water quality parameters were estimated for publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) and combined sewer overflows (CSOs), industrial waste discharged either directly to the estuary or through POTWs, stormwater runoff, and accidental spills of petroleum products and hazardous chemicals. The recent trend toward regionalized waste treatment systems to provide secondary levels of treatment have provided some reductions of overall contaminant mass loadings. However, CSOs remain a significant source of untreated waste in the estuary. Additionally, the magnitude of the major sources relative to the ability of the estuary to absorb and dilute the various waste streams suggests that much must be done to reduce chemical inputs at the source.

T1 - Estimating stand transpiration in a Eucalyptus populnea woodland with the heat pulse method: Measurement errors and sampling strategies
AN - 16761605; 3731530
AB - Sap flow measurement techniques, such as the heat pulse (compensation) method, are practical means for estimating the water use of individual trees and are often the only reasonable alternative for measuring forest and woodland transpiration in complex heterogeneous terrain. The need to scale estimates of water use from a sample of individual stems to a stand (population) of known area may be satisfied by applying scalars of flux based on tree size or domain. We estimated the aggregate errors in applying the heat pulse technique to the estimation of stand transpiration in a poplar box (Eucalyptus populnea F.J. Muell.) woodland in southeastern Queensland, Australia, by a combination of precision analyses, experimental validation and Monte Carlo simulations of sampling errors. Errors in sap flux density measurements were approximately 13%. The potential error in the flux estimates for individual stems with stratified sampling of sap flux density with depth and bole quadrant based on four sensors was an additional 25%. Conducting wood area, diameter at 1.3 m, leaf area and domain based on Ecological Field Theory all proved excellent scalars of flux at the stand level. With a sample size of six trees stratified by diameter, coefficients of variation in scaling to the stand level were approximately 5% for any of these scalars. The greatest potential source of error in estimating stand transpiration by the heat pulse method was in the measurement of the fluxes of individual stems; scaling these measurements to a homogeneous stand of trees involved less uncertainty.

T1 - Detection of provisional serovars of Shigella dysenteriae and designation as S. dysenteriae serotypes 14 and 15
AN - 16760200; 3733864
AB - In initial studies of slide and tube agglutination tests of shigella-like isolates from diarrheal stools from Bangladesh, 10 and 8 strains of Shigella dysenteriae were identified as provisional serovars (serovars that have been defined but not given a number in the antigenic schema) E22383 and E23507, respectively. Further screening of diarrheal stool isolates in a slide agglutination test with antisera (made with the international reference strains) to the two provisional serovars of S. dysenteriae identified an additional 36 isolates as belonging to E22383 and 8 isolates as belonging to E23507. All strains had properties typical of invasive Shigella strains in that they were positive in the Sereny test and had the 120- to 140-MDa plasmid associated with invasiveness. On the basis of these markers of pathogenicity and isolation from various geographical locations, now we recommend that provisional serovars E22383 and E23507 be designated S. dysenteriae serotypes 14 and 15, respectively.

T1 - Recent advances in inoculant technology and prospects for the future
AN - 16760105; 3730276
AB - Although no accurate information is available, it seems clear that world-wide production of legume inoculant is static or in decline. This is a paradoxical situation in a world where improved strategies for augmenting biological N sub(2) fixation have the potential to contribute enormous returns in the quality and quantity of food for humans and domestic animals. Here we examine some of the reasons. Peat or related materials of biological origin have been used as carriers for legume inoculants for more than 19 yr. Little progress has been made with alternative carriers that might enhance the numerical quality of inoculants. The traditional means of delivery of inoculant into the soil is by seed inoculation. There are now other methods of delivery which are both practical and ecologically sound. The most efficient strategy for many situations would be to breed or select promiscuous lines of legume with enhanced capacity to fix N with populations of rhizobia resident in the soil. This strategy would bypass the act of legume inoculation. These and related matters are discussed in the paper.

T1 - Expression patterns of three genes in the stem of lucerne (Medicago sativa)
AN - 16757325; 3725600
AB - We have identified three stem abundantly expressed genes in lucerne (alfalfa, Medicago sativa). A cDNA library, constructed from lucerne stem polyadenylated RNA, was screened by differential hybridization. From this screening, cDNA clones that correspond to genes which are preferentially, or specifically, expressed in the stem were isolated. MsaS1 encodes an unidentified protein, MsaS2 encodes an S-adenosyl-homocysteine hydrolase and MsaS3 encodes an extensin-like protein. Northern blot analysis of RNA isolated from individual stem internodes indicated that the three corresponding genes show differing developmental patterns of expression. The expression of MsaS1 was confined to the youngest stem tissue and may be regulated by sucrose. In stem tissue the level of RNA for the three genes decreased in response to wounding. Tissue print hybridization analysis was used to localize the expression of the genes to the xylem side of vascular bundles in lucerne stems.

T1 - Molecular techniques for the study of rhizobial ecology in the field
AN - 16756359; 3730292
AB - Traditional approaches to the study of rhizobial ecology in the field have used spontaneous or induced antibiotic resistance markers, or various detection techniques including fluorescently-labelled antibodies, the ELISA technique or immunodiffusion. All these approaches suffer certain disadvantages, the key ones being the labour-intensive nature of the assays, which limits the amount of data that can be collected, and the lack of sufficient specificity to allow unambiguous strain identification. New techniques that are based on molecular biology can provide significant advantages. Introduced marker genes, such as the beta -glucuronidase (gusA) gene allow the analysis of all the nodules on a single root system with a simple colour assay, thereby dramatically increasing data throughput. Nucleic-acid-based techniques, which identify strains from characteristic DNA or RNA sequences or profiles, provide an excellent tool for strain verification and for surveying population structure.

AN - 16756015; 3730502
AB - Four isolates of Serpula lacrymans from Australia and one from each of Germany, Japan and Poland were examined for their similarity to the reference isolate FPRL 12C (from England) by RAPD PCR. Results were compared with those published by others using SDS-PAGE and found to be similar. RAPD PCR was shown to be a fast and reliable technique with potential for detecting S. lacrymans as a cause of wood decay. Other possible applications for this assay could include epidemiological and phylogenetic studies.

T1 - Effect of prior, low-level cadmium exposure in vivo on metallothionein expression in cultured lymphocytes
AN - 16749618; 3726152
AB - Exposure to cadmium (Cd) is currently monitored by measurement of the metal in blood or urine, or by observation of excreted compounds such as beta sub(2)-microglobulin or N-acetyl- beta -D-glucose. Whilst these approaches are useful for the detection of acute exposure to Cd, their applicability in the management of long-term, low-level exposure is less clear. Metallothioneins are ubiquitous proteins that are synthesized in response to heavy metal ions and may offer themselves as being a biologically sensitive indicator of Cd exposure. We have examined both basal and Cd-induced metallothionein mRNA levels in cultured lymphocytes from groups with different exposures to Cd, attempting to assess their potential as an indicator of Cd exposure and the suitability of such an assay for routine analysis. We found that induced metallothionein mRNA levels, rather than basal mRNA levels, increased in groups known to have received elevated body burdens of Cd, although these increases were not significant between groups. There was, however, a significant correlation between induced metallothionein mRNA levels and urinary beta sub(2)-microglobulin. These results suggest that further work on the in vitro lymphocyte response to Cd as a diagnostic tool is warranted.

T1 - An exploration of the outcomes of gastric bypass surgery for morbid obesity: Patient characteristics and indices of success
AN - 16743004; 3722197
AB - The search for replicable predictors of the outcomes of surgical intervention for obesity has proven challenging, with patient selection being a recurrent theme in bariatric literature. In this study, 20 gastric bypass patients were interviewed at an average of 2 years following surgery. Subjects provided extensive data relating to their characteristics and experiences. Statistical analyses were undertaken to establish likely predictors of success, both in terms of percentage of excess weight lost and in broader terms. It was found that self-esteem, some scales of the Adjective Checklist, and valuing of food and eating related to a successful outcome. Recommendations are made regarding an interview schedule for pre-operative assessment, and a prospective study to evaluate its predictive power is proposed.

T1 - Assessment of two numerical models for simulating upflow from shallow watertables
AN - 16740122; 3719078
AB - Two mechanistic models (LEACHM and SWIM) were tested for their accuracy in estimating upflow from static watertables. Results were compared with data sets obtained in lysimeter studies under different crop, soil, and watertable-depth combinations. Reasonable estimates of upflow were obtained using soil, climatic, and plant-growth input values that approximated measured values. However, root-distribution inputs had to be individually adjusted for each simulation to obtain reasonable approximations of upflow. The sensitivity of the models' outputs to changes in parameter values was examined for individual parameters as well as for groups of parameters. Results indicated that model outputs were most sensitive to changes in parameters influencing root growth. The high sensitivity to root-growth functions was noted as a potential limitation to model use, as little data is typically available for root growth and distribution. Root growth and distribution is also likely to be highly variable and dependent on a number of transient factors including time, species, soil type, soil chemistry, and soil water distribution.

T1 - Reproductive patterns and resource allocation in tropical butterflies: Influence of adult diet and seasonal phenotype on fecundity, longevity and egg size
AN - 16735661; 3714747
AB - The reproductive patterns and resource allocation strategies of three closely related tropical satyrine butterflies, Mycalesis terminus, M. sirius and M. perseus, were studied under laboratory and semi-laboratory conditions. We first examined the influence of two adult food sources, sugar (25% honey solution) and rotting fruit, on the oviposition pattern, fecundity, longevity, egg size and reproductive effort in the wet-season forms of M. terminus and M. sirius. We then compared the reproductive traits between the two seasonal phenotypes (wet- and dry-season form) of M. perseus fed only on the rotting fruit diet. In this species females of the dry-season form diapause as adults whereas those of the wet-season form usually reproduce directly. Availability of sugar or rotting fruit in the adult diet of M. sirius had no significant effect on any of the reproductive traits. However, in M. terminus diet had two major effects: availability of sugar increased longevity, while females fed on rotting fruit tended to maintain constant egg weight over time. Differences in response to adult diet in these two species correspond with their behaviour in the field: M. sirius adults rarely feed at nectar sources or on rotting fruit, whereas those of M. terminus readily feed on rotting fruits. Hence, availability of rotting fruits to adult M. terminus may enhance reproductive success since females appear to produce better quality offspring (i.e. lay larger eggs over time). In M. perseus, post-diapausing females of the dry-season form had reduced realised and potential fecundity, laid proportionally fewer eggs, and had a shorter oviposition period compared with the wet-season form. Egg weight increased with female age in the wet-season form but declined in the dry-season form. Although the dry-season form laid larger eggs it still had a much lower reproductive effort, indicating that diapause imposes a substantial cost to reproduction. We tentatively conclude that this cost is the result of an adjustment in resource allocation between soma (body size and structure to increase longevity) and reproductive reserves acquired during the larval feeding period. Comparison of the reproductive patterns between the three species (i.e. when both seasonal form and adult diet are standardised) revealed striking similarities in many traits, including oviposition pattern, potential fecundity, reproductive effort and survival. However, there were substantial differences in allocation strategies, with M. perseus partitioning its reproductive effort into many smaller eggs. Differences in these reproductive strategies are associated with the preferred habitats of each, and we suggest that habitat uncertainty and limited breeding opportunities may have selected for higher fecundity in M. perseus.

T1 - Relationships between developmental stability and fitness: Application for conservation biology
AN - 16734560; 3714716
AB - One of the most difficult tasks in conservation biology is identifying populations subject to stress before such stress has a detrimental impact on the population, thus allowing conservation and remedial action to be undertaken. Measuring fitness (fecundity, survival, etc.) changes directly is often difficult, expensive, or impractical. The ability of an organism to buffer its development against disturbances (developmental stability) is often considered an integral component of an individual's fitness. Data are presented from a number of studies that establish a clear relationship between developmental stability and fitness in response to both genetic and environmental stress. Consequently, I suggest that developmental stability may be used as a surrogate for more direct fitness estimation for use in conservation biology and biomonitoring programs and that is has widespread application as an early warning system for monitoring the effect of genetic and environmental stresses on natural populations.

T1 - One-dimensional oxygen diffusion into soil with exponential respiration: Analytical and numerical solutions
AN - 16734021; 3715901
AB - A numerical model for one-dimensional diffusion of oxygen into soil which incorporates a soil respiration function that decreases exponentially with depth, is compared with an analytical solution. The results show that the assumption of zero flux at the bottom boundary for the numerical solution means that the assumed depth to the bottom boundary, z sub(n), is a critical parameter. The analytical solution shows that this boundary condition leads to two distinct oxygen concentration profiles. The first occurs when the oxygen concentration approaches a constant value, C*, as z arrow right arrow left . The second occurs when the oxygen concentration goes to zero at some depth, L. With the analytical solution, the nature of the profile can be determined a priori and either C* or L calculated. With the numerical solution it is not possible to determine which of these profiles will occur a priori. This can only be obtained by increasing z sub(n) and noting what happens to the oxygen concentration profile. The results illustrate the care needed in using numerical solutions and the extra physical insight that may be gained from using analytical solutions where they are available.

T1 - The performance of a production-model management procedure
AN - 16727134; 3713304
AB - The performance of a production-model management procedure (the combination of a Schaefer surplus-production function observation-error estimator and the f sub(0.1) harvesting strategy) is evaluated by means of Monte Carlo simulation. Several factors which impact the performance of a management procedure (initial depletion, historic catch trajectory, extent of recruitment variability, level of noise about the abundance index, and values for other population model parameters) are considered. The best performance, in terms of conservation and moving the population to its target biomass level, is achieved when recruitment variability, the noise about the abundance index and natural mortality are low, and productivity is high. Performance, in terms of conservation, is poor if management commences from a virtually unexploited state due to the possibility that the estimator overestimates the size of the biomass. In this situation, performance is improved by restricting the extent of inter-annual change in catch, although the improvement is at the expense of lesser recovery of overexploited resources and lesser utilization of resources which are initially virtually pristine. The results of this paper can be used as part of an evaluation of whether a production model can be used in the management of a particular resource.

T1 - Evaluation of the monoclonal antibody-based kit Bengal SMART for rapid detection of Vibrio cholerae O139 synonym Bengal in stool samples
AN - 16718355; 3701567
AB - A monoclonal antibody-based test, Bengal SMART, was developed for rapid detection of Vibrio cholerae O139 synonym Bengal directly from stool specimens. The test, which takes about 15 min to complete, was used to screen 189 diarrheal stool specimens. The results were compared with those of a monoclonal antibody-based coagglutination test (COAT) and the conventional culture methods used as the "gold standard" for detection of V. cholerae O139. The Bengal SMART test showed a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 97% in comparison with the gold standard. It also fared better than COAT, which had a sensitivity of 96% for rapid detection of V. cholerae O139 synonym Bengal. These results show that Bengal SMART is suitable for use in field settings for rapid diagnosis of cholera caused by V. cholerae O139.

T1 - The corrosion of a low alloy steel in a steam turbine environment: The effect of oxygen concentration and potential scan rate on input parameters used to computer match the experimental polarization curves
AN - 16716476; 3711065
AB - The corrosion behaviour of A-470 low alloy steel in a simulated low pressure steam turbine environment at ambient temperature has been examined as a function of dissolved oxygen (DO sub(2)) concentration. A computerized routine was used to synthesize, match and deconvolute experimental potentiodynamic polarization curves. The empirical relationships between the input parameters required to match the experimental polarization curves at different potential scan rate (v) and DO sub(2) levels has been established. The effect of increasing DO sub(2) level and v parallel one another. The DO sub(2) concentration resulting in spontaneous passivation was between 0.05 and 0.10 ppm whilst concentrations between 2.50 and 3.00 ppm led to instantaneous pitting.

T1 - Use of a multiplex PCR to detect and identify Mycobacterium avium and M. intracellulare in blood culture fluids of AIDS patients
AN - 16713253; 3701581
AB - The presence of mycobacteria in blood culture fluids (BACTEC) of AIDS patients with positive growth indices (GIs, >20 U) was investigated by using a multiplex PCR to detect and identify members of the genus Mycobacterium, M. avium, M. intracellulare, and M. tuberculosis. Three different methods of extracting mycobacterial DNA from blood culture fluid were compared for use with the multiplex PCR. Mycobacterial cells were pelleted from a small aliquot of blood culture fluid by centrifugation, and the DNA was extracted from cells by heat lysis or a sodium iodide-isopropanol or a phenol-chloroform method. DNAs of different sizes were amplified from a region of the MPB70 gene of M. tuberculosis (372 bp) and from a region of the 16S rRNA gene of members of the genus Mycobacterium (1,030 bp), M. intracellulare (850 bp), or M. avium (180 bp) as a multiplex PCR in a single tube. The amplified DNA products were detected by agarose gel electrophoresis and ethidium bromide staining in all 41 (100%) positive cultures after sodium iodide-isopropanol extraction, in 18 (44%) after heat lysis, and in 5 (12%) after phenol-chloroform extraction. Of the 41 positive cultures, 38 were identified as M. avium and 2 were identified as M. intracellulare by both routine methods and multiplex PCR. The remaining mycobacterium was identified as M. intracellulare by routine methods and as M. avium by the multiplex PCR. Another six blood cultures that were negative for the presence of acid-fast bacilli after Ziehl-Neelson staining were also negative by PCR. The study shows that the multiplex PCR is a useful method for the detection and identification of either M. avium or M. intracellulare in small samples of cultured BACTEC 13A fluid with positive GIs ranging from 21 to 999 U. The average time to a positive GI was 18 days (median, 13 days) and ranged between 8 and 42 days. The multiplex PCR may permit cultured mycobacteria to be identified at an earlier stage than the routine methods which have been adapted for use with the BACTEC system. The results also show that the method selected for extracting mycobacterial DNA from blood culture fluids is crucial for providing sensitive and accurate PCR results.

T1 - Genetic regulation of gibberellin deactivation in Pisum
AN - 16710900; 3706622
AB - The regulation of gibberellin (GA) deactivation was examined using the sln (slender) mutation in the garden pea (Pisum sativum L.). This mutation blocks the deactivation of GA sub(20), the precursor of the bioactive GA sub(1). Firstly, crosses were made to combine sln with the GA biosynthesis mutations na, lh super(i) and le-3. The combination sln na produced a novel phenotype, with long ('slender') basal internodes and extremely short ('nana') upper internodes. In contrast, the double mutant sln lh super(i) was phenotypically dwarf. The mutation sln causes an accumulation of GA sub(20) in maturing seeds, and this was unaffected by na, since the na mutation is not expressed in seeds. In contrast, lh super(i) seeds did not accumulate GA sub(20), since lh super(i) imposes an early block on GA biosynthesis. Secondly, the effects of sln on several steps in GA deactivation were investigated. In maturing seeds, the mutation sln blocks two steps in GA sub(20) metabolism, namely, GA sub(20) to GA sub(29), and GA sub(29) to GA sub(29)-catabolite. In the vegetative plant, on the other hand, sln blocked the step GA sub(20) to GA sub(29), but not GA sub(29) to GA sub(29)-catabolite; the steps GA sub(20) to GA sub(81) and GA sub(20) to GA sub(1) were also not impaired in this mutant. It is clear that the effects of sln, like those of na, are strongly organ-specific. The presence of separate enzymes for the steps GA sub(20) to GA sub(29) and GA sub(29) to GA sub(29)-catabolite was suggested by the observation that GA sub(8) inhibited the latter step, but not the former, and by the inability of GA sub(20) and GA sub(29) to inhibit each other's metabolism. It is suggested that the Sln gene may be a regulatory gene controlling the expression of two structural genes involved in GA deactivation.

T1 - The contribution of changes in the prevalence of prone sleeping position to the decline in sudden infant death syndrome in Tasmania
AN - 16707413; 3700210
AB - The objective was to determine the independent contribution of changes in infant sleep position to the recent decline in sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) rate in Tasmania. A comparison of the whole population incidence of SIDS before and after an intervention to reduce the prevalence of prone sleeping position. A within-cohort analysis of the contribution of sleep position and other exposures to the decline in SIDS after the intervention. The Tasmanian SIDS rate decreased (P<.01) from 3.8 (95% confidence interval [CI], 3.5 to 4.2) deaths per 1000 live births from 1975 through 1990 to a rate of 1.5 (95% CI, 0.9 to 2.2) deaths per 1000 live births in 1991 through 1992. The SIDS mortality rate in the cohort by period of birth was 7.6 (95% CI, 4.9 to 10.3) deaths per 1000 live births for those born from May 1, 1988, through April 30, 1991, and 4.1 (95% CI, 1.3 to 7.0) deaths per 1000 infants for those born from May 1, 1991, through October 31, 1992. The prevalence of usual prone sleeping position at 1 month of age was 29.9% and 4.3% in these two cohorts, respectively (adjusted odds ratio, 0.11; 95% CI, 0.08 to 0.13). Logistic regression demonstrated that 70% of the SIDS rate reduction in the cohort could be accounted for by the decreased prevalence of the prone sleeping position. Other factors examined individually contributed to less than 10% of the SIDS rate reduction. The major contributing factor to the recent SIDS rate decline in Tasmania has been the reduction in the proportion of infants usually sleeping prone.

T1 - Localisation of the amathamide alkaloids in surface bacteria of Amathia wilsoni Kirkpatrick, 1888 (Bryozoa: Ctenostomata)
AN - 16680090; 3691230
AB - The marine bryozoan Amethia wilsoni contains several brominated secondary metabolites, the alkaloid amathamides A-F. Energy dispersive X-ray analysis coupled with scanning electron microscopy was used to localise bromine in sections of Amathia wilsoni. Bromine concentrations higher than background levels were only found on the surface of the bryozoan and not within any of the different internal cell types. The correlation between bromine levels and a rod-shaped bacterium, ubiquitous to the tip region, points to the bacterium being closely associated with the range of amathamides found in Amathia wilsoni.

T1 - Campylobacter hyoilei sp. nov., associated with porcine proliferative enteritis
AN - 16678639; 3689084
AB - Campylobacter hyoilei sp. nov. is the name proposed for an organism formerly described as strain RMIT 32A super(T) (T = type strain) and a group of similar bacteria isolated from intestinal lesions of pigs with proliferative enteritis. The phenotypic characteristics of these organisms indicated that they are closely related to each other and are not strains of other Campylobacter spp. commonly isolated from pigs. The results of probing of ClaI-, EcoRV-, or BglII-cleaved genomic DNAs from C. hyoilei strains with a radiolabeled DNA probe that distinguishes between Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli indicated that C. hyoilei and C. coli are closely related. However, the 16S rRNA sequence of the reference strain of C. hyoilei, RMIT 32A super(T), was four bases different from the 16S rRNA sequence of C. jejuni CCUG 11284 super(T) and five bases different from the 16S rRNA sequence of C. jejuni subsp. doylei CCUG 24567 super(T), suggesting that C. hyoilei is more closely related to C. jejuni than to C. coli. Hybridization between DNA from C. hyoilei type strain RMIT 32A and DNAs from selected type and reference strains of other Campylobacter species and subspecies, including C. jejuni, C. jejuni subsp. doylei, C. coli, Campylobacter mucosalis, and Campylobacter hyointestinalis, as well as the other C. hyoilei strains (the RMIT 32A super(T)-like isolates), revealed that high levels of DNA hybridization (>70%) occurred only between the reference strain and other strains of C. hyoilei.

T1 - Use of a semi-pelagic trawl in a tropical demersal trawl fishery
AN - 15981673; 4077993
AB - A fork rigged semi-pelagic trawl was modified to meet Australian regulations and its performance was evaluated against that of a demersal trawl commonly used in a tropical trawl fishery. The catch rates and sizes of commercial species (mainly Lutjanus spp.), and production costs were found to be similar in both nets. The semi-pelagic trawl caught less unwanted species, had less impact on the substrate and produced higher quality product. Its stability and manoeuvrability were superior to those of the Paulegro net, enabling target fishing. Thus the semi-pelagic trawl is a commercially viable and environmentally friendly alternative for the demersal trawl fishery.

T1 - Damage to surface roots of Eucalyptus marginata trees at sites infested with Phytophthora cinnamomi
AN - 15877366; 4031488
AB - Large surface roots from naturally occurring Eucalyptus marginata Donn ex Smith trees at two sites, part of each site being infested by Phytophthora cinnamomi Rands, were excavated to determine whether the number and/or size of pathogenic lesions could account for known differences in growth rate. There were no differences in the number of insect galleries, rots, number of phloem lesions or total lesion length per metre root length within different areas of the same site infested or uninfested by P. cinnamomi. There P. cinnamomi and nine Cryphonectria cubensis (Bruner) Hodges lesions were found on more than 200 m of root length. It was concluded that these lesions are unlikely to result in significant differences in tree growth.

T1 - Mechanism of ketoconazole-induced elevation of individual serum bile acids in the rat: Relationship to the effect of ketoconazole on bile acid uptake by isolated hepatocytes
AN - 15755294; 3979681
AB - Ketoconazole, an imidazole derivative, has been implicated in a number of hepatic dysfunctions. The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of in vivo treatment of rats with ketoconazole on individual serum bile acid levels and the in vitro effects of ketoconazole on the hepatocellular uptake of two bile acids and two other model substrates transported by liver cells. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated i.p. with a single injection of ketoconazole of 25 mg/kg (n = 4) or 50 mg/kg (n = 4); the control group (n = 4) received the vehicle only at a dose of 1 ml/kg. Blood samples were collected at 4 hr after dosing. With high-performance liquid chromatography, the serum was assayed for individual serum bile acids. At the higher dose, ketoconazole produced a significant increase in serum levels of cholic acid, taurocholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, glycocholic acid, glycochenodeoxycholic acid, glycodeoxycholic acid, deoxycholic acid and taurochenodeoxycholic acid compared with the control group (P < .05). Cholic acid, taurocholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid levels were significantly raised in rats treated with the lower dose. In vitro, ketoconazole strongly inhibited the hepatocellular uptake of [ super(14)C]cholic acid, [ super(14)C]taurocholic acid and [ super(3)H]ouabain but not [ super(14)C]2-aminoisobutyric acid, which indicated that the effect is relatively specific. The kinetics of inhibition were competitive and the inhibition constants for taurocholate and ouabain were 6 and 1 mu M, respectively. Ketoconazole inhibited both Na super(+)-dependent and Na super(+)-independent taurocholate uptake and stimulated bile acid countertransport of preloaded hepatocytes. The data suggest that the rise in the serum levels of cholic and taurocholic acids after ketoconazole treatment in rats is mainly related to the inhibitory effect induced by this drug on the hepatocellular uptake of these bile acids. The effect is specific and could help to explain the mechanism by which ketoconazole induces its hepatic dysfunction.

T1 - Habitat use by chital (Axis axis) in Dhaulkhand, Rajaji National Park, India
AN - 15748703; 3974983
AB - We studied habitat use by chital Axis axis (Erxleben) in Dhaulkhand range of Rajaji National Park, Uttar Pradesh during November 1992 and May 1993. The study aimed to understand the spatio-temporal patterns of chital habitat use and to identify the factors governing them. Ten transects were used to quantify the use of hills, plains, habitat types, and habitat features. The use of hills and plains was comparable. Sal forest was used less in winter than in spring-summer. Mixed forest plantation was used more in winter than in spring-summer. Mixed forest-scrubland was intensely used almost throughout the study period. Denser canopy cover (>50%) was used more than sparser canopy cover (50%). In hills, 11-30 degree slopes were used most and slopes >50 degree were not used. S, SE and E aspects were highly used and NE, N, NW and W aspects had low use. Food, water, wind (in hills), temperature, langurs, lopping and grass cutting seemed to affect chital habitat use in Dhaulkhand. The habitat use patterns at Dhaulkhand are suggestive of those in other parts of the Shivalik-Bhabar interface in Rajaji NP.

T1 - Hydrocarbons and sterols in marine sediments and soils at Davis Station, Antarctica: A survey for human-derived contaminants
AN - 15740837; 3973774
AB - A survey of hydrocarbons and sterols in marine and shoreline sediments was undertaken adjacent to Davis Station in Princess Elizabeth Land, Prydz Bay, Eastern Antarctica to determine the impact of a human settlement, including a sewage outfall on the local marine environment. Soil samples from selected locations onshore were also analysed to ascertain the extent of hydrocarbon contamination emanating from fuel storage facilities and other potential sources. The faecal sterol coprostanol was detected at 13.2 mu g g super(-1) (60% of total sterols) in sediment adjacent to the Davis sewage outfall and up to 5.0 mu g g-1 on the shoreline at Davis Beach. These concentrations indicate significant faecal contamination. The absence of coprostanol in faeces from the local wildlife confirms a human origin for this sewage biomarker. Hydrocarbons on the shoreline near Davis were present at up to 5.5 mu g g super(-1) (dry weight of sediment). Biomarker profiles indicate an anthropogenic origin for these hydrocarbons. Onshore, degraded hydrocarbons derived from Special Antarctic Blend distillate were found at relatively high levels in soils at the fuel storage depot (up to 220 mu g g super(-1)). The source of these hydrocarbons appeared to be spillage from fuel storage tanks with possible contributions from fuel pipeline leakage and vehicle useage. Concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon in the soils were very low, generally below 1 ng g super(-1) (dry weight of sediment) for individual compounds.

T1 - Mole drainage: Prospective drainage solution to Bangkok clay soils
AN - 15698118; 3968437
AB - A field experiment in conjunction with soybean (Glycine max) crop was conducted to assess the effects of mole drainage on various soil properties and plant growth. Mole drains were installed at a depth of 55 cm, spaced 2 m apart and at a 1% slope by means of a mole plough having a torpedo of 8.5 cm and an expander of 9.5 cm in diameter. Its impacts on infiltration, bulk density, porosity, suction, moisture content, hydraulic conductivity and air permeability were observed. The temporal variation of pH and EC in the soil profile was also observed during the experiment. Experimental field results revealed that there were significant improvements in soil properties (both physical and chemical) owing to mole drainage. Lime application proved to be very effective under the influence of mole drains. The total water-loss through mole drains after irrigation was found to be about 2% of the total water applied, indicating that the crop water requirement will not significantly be affected by this drainage system. The grain yield and dry matter yield of soybeans increased by about 46% and 118%, respectively. It was concluded that the mole drainage is effective in improving heavy clay acid sulfate soils of the Bangkok Plain.

T1 - Nitrogen removal in baffled waste stabilization ponds
AN - 15647164; 3943086
AB - This study evaluated nitrogen removal in Baffled Waste Stabilization Ponds (BWSPs) comprising laboratory and pilot-scale ponds with different number of baffles. The aim was to promote the waste stabilization pond practice for wastewater treatment in tropical countries by increasing nitrogen and organic carbon removal efficiency or reducing the land area requirement through the use of baffles which increased the biofilm biomass concentrations. The experiments started with a tracer study to find out the hydraulic characteristics of each pond. It was shown that the dispersion number decreased with increasing flow length and number of baffles which indicated more plug flow conditions. The deviation of actual HRT from theoretical HRT was computed and the flow pattern suggested the existence of an optimum spacing of baffles in BWSP units. The investigations further revealed that more than 65% TN and 90% NH sub(3)-N removal efficiencies were achieved at HRT of 5 days in a 6 baffled pond, which corresponds to the specific area of 34.88 m super(2)/m super(3). TN and NH sub(3)-N removal increased with increasing number of baffles in the BWSP units. Combined algal/bacterial biofilm grown on the baffles immersed in the ponds showed potential for increasing the extent of nitrification. COD removal increased with higher number of baffles with its maximum removal efficiency at 6 baffles. Compared with normal WSP, BWSP gave higher TN, NH sub(3)-N, COD and BOD sub(5) removal efficiency. The effluent SS concentrations from the laboratory-scale 6 baffled pond were less than 20 mg/L at HRT of 3 days or more.

T1 - Fynbos plant communities and vegetation-environment relationships in the Soetanysberg hills, Western Cape
AN - 15638223; 3939776
AB - The Cape Floristic Region of South Africa is an area of diverse substrata, high species diversity and complex vegetation patterns. Fynbos vegetation and soils were sampled at 75 sites in a 30-ha study area in the Soetanysberg hills in the south-western part of the Western Cape Province. TWINSPAN, DCA and CCA were used to investigate vegetation patterns and vegetation-environment relationships (with emphasis on soil factors). Classification of the vegetation data, which included 251 species, identified five communities associated with distinct soil types and DCA suggested two main compositional gradients. CCA showed that these two gradients were associated with environmental gradients of pH, soil depth and soil texture. When sites associated with the three substrata, namely, limestone, sandstone and colluvial sand, were analysed separately by CCA, only sandstone and colluvial sand produced significant vegetation-environment relationships. Despite the edaphic complexity of this landscape and the very large number of species, this study showed that there is predictable structure in the vegetation, related to various environmental factors, particularly at the community level.

T1 - Transpiration and leaf area under elevated CO sub(2): Effects of soil water status and genotype in wheat
AN - 15607722; 3923825
AB - Transpiration rate, leaf area expansion, water use and water-use efficiency (WUE) of spaced plants of wheat (cvv. Matong and Quarrion), were examined at ambient and twice ambient CO sub(2) concentrations in wet and drying soil regimes. A hypothesis tested was that both stomatal conductance (g sub(s)) and leaf area development are so regulated by the plant in relation to soil water status that the reduction of approximately 40% in g sub(s) in high CO sub(2) has no permanent impact on whole-plant water use. Whereas, during a soil drying cycle, leaf area increase under elevated CO sub(2) counterbalanced closely for reduced g sub(s) in terms of soil water depletion as reported elsewhere, this counterbalance was neither exact at all times, nor did it apply when the soil was continuously wet. In wet soil, leaf area was not enhanced much by elevated CO sub(2), probably because, under the high radiation and nutritional conditions used, the tillering rate was almost maximal anyway. Quarrion, having a 40% lower g sub(s) than Matong genetically, did not counterbalance a reduced transpiration rate with a larger leaf area under either drying or wet soil conditions. These results support rejection, for wheat, of the hypothesis posed; elevated CO sub(2) increased leaf area mainly by virtue of the direct photosynthetic increase rather than changed soil water status. In wet soil, low g sub(s) Quarrion had a higher CO sub(2) effect on WUE (+73 to 82%) than did Matong (+54 to 65%). In drying soil, both cultivars had a similar increase in WUE at high CO sub(2) (+60 to 68%).

T1 - Dismantling weapons: How will we know?
AN - 15604112; 3921219
AB - The United States has launched a major program aimed at dismantling some of its arsenal of nuclear warheads. At the same time, the United States is encouraging the Russians to fulfill similar commitments. Many analysts expect U.S. and Russian nuclear-dismantlement programs to result in permanent stockpile reductions. The dismantlement of weapons has not proceeded without complications, however. Specifically, once the weapons are broken down, there remains a substantial amount of highly enriched uranium and plutonium that may pose a threat to Russian, American, and international security. Currently, an agreement is being worked out for Russia to sell the United States a substantial portion of the enriched uranium recovered from its dismantled warheads. The United States would then convert it into fuel in its civilian nuclear-powerreactors. As encouraging as weapons-reduction initiatives are, programs aimed at dismantling weapons lack one essential component: provisions for formal verification of warhead dismantlement.

T1 - Baroclinic dynamics of simulated tropical cyclone recurvature
AN - 15602773; 3925353
AB - The mechanisms associated with tropical cyclone recurvature are investigated using a five-level primitive equation model and an idealized environment with characteristics observed in cyclone recurvature conditions. All cyclones moved generally with the flow in the lower and middle troposphere, but the precise motion occurs by a combination of divergence and of advection in both the horizontal and the vertical. The horizontal advection arises from a combination of the initial environmental flow and local changes from rearrangement of the potential vorticity field by cyclone-environment interaction (the so-called beta effect). The balance between these mechanisms changes as the vortex recurves. Since the gradients of potential vorticity increase sharply poleward of the subtropical ridge, this is the preferred region for development of an anticyclonic gyre. This gyre is advected eastward and becomes the dominant anticyclonic system. Recurvature is aided by horizontal deformation of the cyclone in the vicinity of this gyre, and by the manner in which the vertical tilt of the vortex and local divergence fields vary as it moves through a changing vertical wind shear of the environment. Recurvature is sensitive to the degree of diabatic heating and to small meridional changes in the initial vortex location. It is shown that recurvature can occur through an initially unbroken subtropical ridge, but that the presence of a midlatitude trough substantially enhances the potential for recurvature. However, while changes in the upper troposphere are indicative of recurvature potential, recurvature is accomplished largely by lower-tropospheric changes. An important component of this change is the development of a major anticyclone poleward and eastward of the cyclone. A recent observational study by Ford et al. concurs with this finding.

T1 - Distribution and possible sources of total mercury in sediments from the Newark Bay estuary, New Jersey
AN - 15568073; 3903704
AB - This paper reports the results of total Hg analysis conducted on samples of surface and buried sediments from 72 cores collected from Newark Bay and its major tributaries between 1991 and 1993. The Newark Bay estuary is surrounded by heavy industry and the New York City - Newark Metropolitan area. The data presented in this study may provide insight on the correlation between the concentrations of Hg reported in fishes and inputs from suspected point- and non-point sources of Hg contamination as revealed in recently deposited and buried sediments. From this information, it may be possible to identify possible current and historical sources of Hg contamination and areas where toxicological testing should be conducted to evaluate possible ecological and human health hazards.

T1 - Validation of K-XRF Bone Lead Measurement in Young Adults
AN - 14373400; 10495949
AB - K-X-ray fluorescence (K-XRF) was used in this study of 23 college students to assess their bone lead levels. Measurements were taken for 30 or 60 minutes from the mid-shaft tibia. Longer sampling times reduced the reported measurements certainty by a factor of 1.5. A mean measurement of 3.0 mu g Pb/bone mineral was recorded, with a range from -1.5 to 8.2 mu g Pb/bone mineral. Bone lead measurements increased with age. Although this technique may not be appropriate for individual diagnoses due to the large variability within each individual, it is useful for the characterization of long term exposure to lead in larger populations.

T1 - What's In the Water: The Disinfectant Dilemma
AN - 14372635; 10495944
AB - Once used widely for water disinfection, chlorine was found to produce byproducts in reaction with organic matter that are potentially damaging to human health. Subsequent efforts to find other disinfectants have met with equally complex costs and benefits. Ozone, chlorine dioxide, chloramines, and ultraviolet radiation are all capable of forming byproducts which will be regulated by the EPA. In its new rules, the EPA is aiming to balance the risks from microbial infections against the risks posed by disinfectants and their byproducts. Pollution prevention and costs are also critical issues in this debate.

T1 - Social and Environmental Factors in Lung Cancer Mortality in Post-War Poland
AN - 14368753; 10495947
AB - Industrialization and air pollution have marked Poland and other Eastern European nations in the decades of rapid growth since WWII. This has been paralleled by rapid increases in chronic disease mortality. Data from Poland are used to correlate industrial pollution and cigarette consumption by region with lung cancer mortality. The heterogeneous distribution of lung cancer is observed. The link between pollution and declining life expectancy is tested using regional data. It appears that high mortality may be linked to life in urban areas and related exposures to occupational hazards, alcoholism, and crime. These occupational and social factors appear to equal the significance of pollution in affecting mortality patterns.

T1 - Response of Mouse Lung to Carbon Deposition During Injury and Repair
AN - 14368094; 10495948
AB - Fine particulate air pollutants have been linked to greater levels of respiratory diseases. The management of small carbon particles by the lungs during a period of injury or repair was studied to evaluate the impact of air pollution on ailing pulmonary systems. Mice with different degrees of lung injury were subjected to carbon treatments. Although carbon was found to increase inflammatory cells after acute injury, fibrosis was comparable to the control treatment. Carbon treatments four weeks after injury showed that repair had begun sufficiently to ward off additional negative effects.

AN - 14364367; 10495946
AB - Studies assessing the risk of developing cancer from exposure to residential radon have been conducted on populations including both smokers and nonsmokers. It is demonstrated that this mixed population obscures the potential interaction between radon and tobacco smoke, and thus qualifies the risk. Adequate statistical controls could best be achieved by studying never-smokers, if the joint effect is additive rather than multiplicative.

AN - 14354744; 10495945
AB - The responses of laboratory animals to carcinogens or toxic chemicals can be widely different. Because the National Toxicology Program uses only a single strain of mice and rats in its experiments, it is possible that not all carcinogens are detected. The use of additional strains would greatly improve these results, and could be achieved without increasing the number of animals. This multistrain factorial experimental design would generate more powerful statistics at equivalent costs.
