A possible relationship between the hot prominence transition sheath, increased internal turbulent and/or helical motion prior to prominence eruption and the prominence eruption (“disparition brusque”) is discussed. The associated darkening of the filament or brightening of the prominence is interpreted as a change in the prominence’s internal pressure gradient which, if of the correct sign, can lead to short wavelength turbulent convection within the prominence. Associated with such a pressure gradient change may be the alteration of the current density gradient within the prominence. Such a change in the current density gradient may also be due to the relative motion of the neighbouring plages thereby increasing the magnetic shear within the prominence, i.e., steepening the current density gradient. Depending on the magnitude of the current density gradient, i.e., magnetic shear, disruption of the prominence can occur by either a long wavelength ideal MHD helical (“kink”) convective instability and/or a long wavelength resistive helical (“kink”) convective instability (tearing mode). The long wavelength ideal MHD helical instability will lead to helical rotation and thus unwinding due to diamagnetic effects and plasma ejections due to convection. The long wavelength resistive helical instability will lead to both unwinding and plasma ejections, but also to accelerated plasma flow, long wavelength magnetic field filamentation, accelerated particles and long wavelength heating internal to the prominence.

During the design and synthesis of new chemotherapeutic agents for prostatic carcinoma based on phosphorylated agents which might be enzyme-activated to cytotoxicity, phosphorylcholine, [(CH3)3+NCH2CH2OPO3Ca]Cl-, has been indicated to be a very specific substrate for prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP). This phenomenon has led to the development of specific histochemical and ultracytochemical methods for PAP using modifications of the Gomori lead method for acid phosphatase. Comparative histochemical results in prostate and kidney of the rat have been published earlier with phosphorylcholine (PC) and β-glycerophosphate (βGP). We now report the ultracytochemical results.Minced tissues were fixed in 3% glutaraldehyde-0.1 M phosphate buffered (pH 7.4) for 1.5 hr and rinsed overnight in several changes of 0.05 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) containing 7.5% sucrose. Tissues were incubated 30 min to 2 hr in Gomori acid phosphatase medium (2) containing 0.1 M substrate, either PC or βGP.

Synthesis Of Materials

Biomimetics involves investigation of structure, function, and methods of synthesis of biological composite materials. The goal is to apply this information to the design and synthesis of materials for engineering applications.Properties of engineering materials are structure sensitive through the whole spectrum of dimensions from nanometer to macro scale. The goal in designing and processing of technological materials, therefore, is to control microstructural evolution at each of these dimensions so as to achieve predictable physical and chemical properties. Control at each successive level of dimension, however, is a major challenge as is the retention of integrity between successive levels. Engineering materials are rarely fabricated to achieve more than a few of the desired properties and the synthesis techniques usually involve high temperature or low pressure conditions that are energy inefficient and environmentally damaging.In contrast to human-made materials, organisms synthesize composites whose intricate structures are more controlled at each scale and hierarchical order.

Limulus Test

Limulus hemocyte lysate contains a proclotting enzyme, which is transformed to the active clotting enzyme in the presence of gram-negative bacterial endotoxins. The clotting enzyme coagulates a clottable protein, named coagulogen, contained also in the lysate. This gelation reaction of the lysate, named Limulus test, has been widely employed as a simple and very sensitive assay method for endotoxins. We developed a new fluorogenic substrate, Boc-Leu-Gly-Arg-4-methylcoumarin amide, for Limulus clotting enzyme and established an enzymatic assay method for endotoxins, using the substrate. Because the endotoxin mediates the activation of proclotting enzyme in the lysate, the measurement of amidase activity could be applicable for quantitation of the endotoxins. In fact, the amidase activity determined fluorometrically increased by increasing concentration of E. coli 0111: B4 endotoxin added to the lysate, and a linear relationship between the toxin concentration and the activity was observed in the range of 5X10-6to 5xl0-2 µg endotoxin. The method was a fifty times more sensitive than that of the Limulus test and was very reproducible. However, the method was not directly applicable for the assay of endotoxins in circulating blood, as the amidase activity was strongly inhibited by antithrombin III and α2-plasmin inhibitor. Thus, some pretreatment with heat or chloroform on plasma samples before the assay was required.
