The in vitro hydrolytic degradation of 2-0 size PDS monofilament suture was studied for the purpose of revealing its morphologic structure and degradation mechanism. The sutures were immersed in phosphate buffer of pH 7.44 for up to 120 days at 37 degrees C. These hydrolyzed sutures were examined by the changes in ten…
Abstract Incomplete and imperfect data characterize the problem of constructing electron density representations from experimental information. One fundamental concern is identification of the proper protocol for including new information at any stage of a density reconstruction. An axiomatic approach developed in oth…
The description of molecular shape is important in the analysis of protein-protein and protein-ligand interactions. We describe volumetric and surface-based techniques for computing shape properties of molecular surfaces. The surface is defined as an isocontour of an approximate electron density function. Each techniq…
This is a review of quantum chemical, statistical‐mechanical, electrostatic, and crystal chemical studies of phyllosilicates. Atomic‐level studies have examined the structure and bonding within phyllosilicate layers, the effects of cation substitution on bonding and charge distribution, the structure of water, and the…
Abstract The effects of cryogenically ground rubber tires (CGT) on some of the mechanical properties of blends with linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) and high density polyethylene (HDPE) are presented. Precoating the CGT particles with an ethylene‐acrylic acid copolymer is shown to overcome most of the deleterio…

A hierarchical structural classification is developed for the copper oxysalt minerals, based on the polymerization of coordination polyhedra of higher bond valences, and focusing specifically on [3]-, [4]-, [5]- and [6]-coordinate polyhedra. The nature of copper oxysalt structures is complicated by the extremely disto…
The PEEK glass transition (alpha-relaxation) is studied as a function of polymer semicrystalline morphology, characterized by small-angle X-ray scattering. An inverse relationship is observed between glass transition temperature and amorphous interlayer thickness. This is interpreted in terms of configurational entrop…
Muscle cramps induced by voluntary contraction and by electrical stimulation of the peripheral nerve were studied electrophysiologically in 10 healthy subjects. The aim was to verify that cramps can be evoked by electrical stimulation of peripheral nerve and to clarify the physiological mechanism responsible by analyz…
94 Monomeric units make up 1, the largest pure hydrocarbon yet characterized (C1134H1146). The compound which, thanks to its di-tert-butyl-phenyl groups, is extremely soluble in pentane (!) was obtained from the monodendron precursor and triiodobenzene with a Pd catalyst in 37% yield. Elemental analysis and 1H NMR spe…
The microstructure of ZnO powder, obtained from thermal decomposition of the oxalate and studied previously by electron microscopy and adsorption calorimetry, was investigated by means of X-ray powder diffraction pattern decomposition. A Williamson–Hall plot revealed that some lines were broadened solely due to the ef…
It is well known that compression causes insulators and semiconductors to become metallic when the concentration of the matrix atoms (or of impurity atoms) reaches a critical value given by the theories of Herzfeld, Mott, Hubbard, Edwards and Sienko, and others. It is argued here, based on the observed transitions in…
Endgrafted polymers at surfaces exposed to a shear flow are modeled by a nonequilibrium Monte Carlo method where the jump rate of effective monomers to neighboring lattice sites against the flow direction is smaller than in the flow direction, assuming that this difference in jump rates is proportional to the local ve…
The dynamic mechanical properties of low density polyethylene filled with isocyanate treated and untreated short sisal fiber composites were studied as a function of temperature and frequency. By the incorporation of short sisal fiber into LDPE, the stor age moduli ( E') and loss moduli ( E") increase, whereas the mec…

We used transposon (Tn) mutagenesis to study the role of capsular polysaccharide/adhesin (PS/A) and slime in adherence of Staphylococcus epidermidis to catheters. pLTV1, containing Tn917-LTV1, was transformed into S. epidermidis M187 by protoplast fusion with S. aureus RN4220(pLTV1), creating M187(pLTV1). Tn mutants w…

The sedimentation of monodisperse suspensions of rigid spheres has been studied by dynamical simulation; computational techniques are described and numerical results are reported. It has been found that there is a slow relaxation of the suspension microstructure during sedimentation, so that compared with the initial…
