The synthesis and structural characterization of the condensation product formed by a template reaction of 2,6-diacetylpyridine and 3,6,9-trithiaundecane-1,11-diamine about silver(I) (as perchlorate ) are described. Crystals are monoclinic, C2/c, a 27.114(10), b 7.546(5), c 22.137(10) �, β 105.35(3)°, Z= 8×[AgL]+(ClO4)-(L = C17H25N3S3). R was 0.057 for 2372 'observed' reflections. The six-coordinate silver(I) atom lies in a novel environment comprised of a mer-triaza moiety derived from 2,6-diacetylpyridine [Ag-N, 2.422(8) (central), 2. 538(8), 2.546(9)� (distal)] and a fac-trithia moiety straddling its plane [Ag-S, 2.603(6) (central), 2.815(4), 2.881(3) � (distal)]. The complex cation is a different conformational isomer to that found in the previously studied tetraphenylborate salt. In the latter, Ag-N are 2.422(9) (central), 2.613(9), 2.399(7) � (distal), with Ag-S 2.670(3) (central), 2.655(3), 2.949(4) � (alstal).

Ever since the introduction of glutaraldehyde as a fixative in electron microscopy of biological specimens, the identification of impurities and consequently their effects on biologic ultrastructure have been under investigation. Several reports postulate that the impurities of glutaraldehyde, used as a fixative, are glutaric acid, glutaraldehyde polymer, acrolein and glutaraldoxime.Analysis of commercially available biological or technical grade glutaraldehyde revealed two major impurity components, none of which has been reported. The first compound is a colorless, water-soluble liquid with a boiling point of 42°C at 16 mm. Utilizing Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopic analysis, this compound has been identified to be — dihydro-2-ethoxy 2H-pyran. This impurity component of the glutaraldehyde biological or technical grades has an UV absorption peak at 235nm. The second compound is a white amorphous solid which is insoluble in water and has a melting point of 80-82°C. Initial chemical analysis indicates that this compound is an aldol condensation product(s) of glutaraldehyde.

Characterization of Borrelia burgdorferi strains by means of negative staining EM has become an integral part of many studies related to the biology of the Lyme disease organism. However, relying solely upon negative staining to compare new isolates with prototype B31 or other borreliae is often unsatisfactory. To obtain more satisfactory results, we have relied upon a correlative approach encompassing a variety EM techniques, i.e., scanning for topographical features and cryotomy, negative staining and thin sectioning to provide a more complete structural characterization of B. burgdorferi.For characterization, isolates of B. burgdorferi were cultured in BSK II media from which they were removed by low speed centrifugation. The sedimented borrelia were carefully resuspended in stabilizing buffer so as to preserve their features for scanning and negative staining. Alternatively, others were prepared for conventional thin sectioning and for cryotomy using modified procedures. For thin sectioning, the fixative described by Ito, et al.
