Autofluorescence can be a very disturbing factor in immunofluorescence microscopy. We present here a method to eliminate autofluorescence. The method is based on the fact that most autofluorescent compounds have broad-banded excitation and emission spectra, whereas specific fluorescent probes have narrow spectra. Two images are recorded and digitized, one at a wavelength exciting both the fluorescent probe and the autofluorescent molecules, and one at a wavelength exciting only the latter. Subtraction of the autofluorescence signal from the total fluorescence signal, using a self-developed computer program, results in an autofluorescence-free image. The procedure is demonstrated for elimination of elastin-derived autofluorescence in human lung alveoli and for elimination of lipofuscin-derived autofluorescence in human heart muscle. The autofluorescence signal is positively correlated with tissue section thickness (r = 0.93; p < 0.0001), and can be used to correct the specific fluorescence signals for section thickness.

SUMMARYIt is suggested that quite a small computer, in association with a minimal program for the analysis of variance, can be used to calculate quantities of use to the agronomic research worker beyond what he usually obtains. For example, without further programs it is possible to calculate an analysis of covariance, in which adjustment is made for some disturbing factor. It is also possible to find how much of the error variance arises from a particular plot, and to deal with situations in which data are incomplete or the yields from two plots have become mixed.

Mr. Williamson's comments on my article leave the issue between us ambiguous. I welcome this opportunity further to develop my own views regarding the turbulent period of the 1830's and early 1840's.First of all, I believe that Williamson has overstated his case in attributing to me disregard of the importance of internal events in the United States. I advanced the hypothesis that the primary disturbing factor in the period 1834–1845 was an increase, and then a decrease, in the flow of funds into the United States, and the problem I wished to examine was the response in the American economy to this initial disturbance. As indicated in my article, the emphasis placed on external factors does not mean that internal events in the United States were negligible.

Technip began qualification of reeled Steel Catenary Risers (SCR) back in 1997. Industry had raised concerns at that time over the plastic straining cycles that are intrinsic to the reel lay method and the impact these could have upon the service fatigue life of the girth welds. The qualification programme, therefore, included comparison of reeled welds against virgin welds for a suite of fatigue and mechanical testing including full scale fatigue and fatigue crack growth tests. Reeling was shown to have no discernable impact for the fatigue performance level sought when a controlled SCR fabrication process was adhered to. This provided sufficient confidence that the technology was fit for purpose and led to successful fabrication and installation of the first reeled SCR in 2001. Since then more than 25 have been installed in the Gulf of Mexico, with most projects including full scale weld fatigue test qualification following reeling simulations. This paper includes the following: (a) a summary of the philosophy adopted for qualification, fabrication and installation of a reeled SCR, (b) presentation of the reeled SCR track record and evolution of the technology to include mechanized welding processes (c) a look at ongoing developments targeting even higher fatigue performance, and (d) discussion on the development of fracture mechanics techniques that provide further confidence in the concept and can be used to derive appropriate weld acceptance criteria.
