<p>The spontaneous small leaf particles groups of fallows, that are the first stage of the restoration of broad-leaved forests were investigated. In composition of groups of birch, aspen and alder saplings on the fallows (Ivano-Frankivsk and Zhytomyr region) three new associations are distinguished and described (Cirsio arvensi-Betuletum pendulae, Phalacrolomo annui-Populetum tremulae, Dauco carotae-Alnetum glutinosae). These syntaxons are included into new class Dactylo glomerati-Populetea tremulae Vorobyov et I. Solomakha cl. nova in press. Syntaxonomy of this class was generalized for the territory of Ukraine.</p> <p><em>Key words: Syntaxonomy, class Dactylo glomerati-Populetea tremulae, fallows, afforestation, birch aspen and alder forests, Ukraine.</em></p>

This paper reviews published articles describing several instruments used currently to "capture" the attention of smokers for quit-smoking interventions and emphasizes the distinction between the strategies used to reach eligible individuals and those used to recruit them for the proposed smoking cessation intervention. The search for articles was conducted using MEDLINE, PsychARTICLE, and LILACS. Key words for the search included recruitment, enrollment, reach, smoking cessation, quitline, and helpline mentioned in the abstracts and titles of the articles. Articles published in English, Portuguese, and Spanish through November 2006 that emphasized capture instruments related to different populations and specific interventions were included in this review. Twenty-nine studies met the inclusion criteria. Studies that used active and mixed strategies reached, on average, a smaller and less diverse possible number of eligible individuals and had greater participation proportions than those that used reactive strategies. Future studies are needed to evaluate the effectiveness of new associations between current interventions and reactive capture strategies, in view of the potential for increasing the population impact related to reactive capture.

Trisalkylpyridinium porphyrins substituted by one glycosyl (glucosyl, maltosyl, and lactosyl) moiety have been prepared in acceptable yields. These glycosylated cationic porphyrins have been synthesized from pyrrole condensed with 4-pyridinecarboxaldehyde, and suitable ortho- or para peracetylglycosyloxybenzaldehyde derivatives in refluxing propionic acid –Ac2O followed by action of alkyliodide in DMF. Deprotection of the glycosylated moieties led to a new class of representative glycosylated porphyrins. Key words: porphyrins, cationic, glycosylated; phototherapy, cancer.

14β-Fluorosteroids 3 and 4 were synthesized to give a new class of unnatural cardenolides. The total synthesis of racemic 14β-fluorosteroids was accomplished using a highly diastereoselective transannular Diels–Alder reaction on a trans-cis-cis macrocyclic triene. The α-fluoro analog 4 provided a comparable inhibitory activity to natural digitoxigenin 1.Key words: fluorosteroid, bioisostere, cardiovascular diseases, transannular Diels–Alder reaction (TADA), macrocyclization.

Porous semiconductors represent a relatively new class of materials formed by the selective etching of a single or polycrystalline substrate. Although porous silicon has received considerable attention due to its novel optical properties1, porous layers can be formed in other semiconductors such as GaAs and GaP. These materials are characterised by very high surface area and by electrical, optical and chemical properties that may differ considerably from bulk. The properties depend on the pore morphology, which can be controlled by adjusting the processing conditions and the dopant concentration. A number of novel structures can be fabricated using selective etching. For example, self-supporting membranes can be made by growing pores through a wafer, films with modulated pore structure can be fabricated by varying the applied potential during growth, composite structures can be prepared by depositing a second phase into the pores and silicon-on-insulator structures can be formed by oxidising a buried porous layer. In all these applications the ability to grow nanostructures controllably is critical.

In neurons, the microtubule associated protein, tau, is found in the axons. Tau stabilizes the microtubules required for neurotransmitter transport to the axonal terminal. Since tau has been found in both Alzheimer neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) and in paired helical filaments (PHF), the study of tau's normal structure had to preceed TEM studies of NFT and PHF. The structure of tau was first studied by ultracentrifugation. This work suggested that it was a rod shaped molecule with an axial ratio of 20:1. More recently, paraciystals of phosphorylated and nonphosphoiylated tau have been reported. Phosphorylated tau was 90-95 nm in length and 3-6 nm in diameter where as nonphosphorylated tau was 69-75 nm in length. A shorter length of 30 nm was reported for undamaged tau indicating that it is an extremely flexible molecule. Tau was also studied in relation to microtubules, and its length was found to be 56.1±14.1 nm.

Recently there has been much excitement over a new class of high Tc (>30 K) ceramic superconductors of the form A1-xBxCuO4-x, where A is a rare earth and B is from Group II. Unfortunately these materials have only been able to support small transport current densities 1-10 A/cm2. It is very desirable to increase these values by 2 to 3 orders of magnitude for useful high field applications. The reason for these small transport currents is as yet unknown. Evidence has, however, been presented for superconducting clusters on a 50-100 nm scale and on a 1-3 μm scale. We therefore planned a detailed TEM and STEM microanalysis study in order to see whether any evidence for the clusters could be seen.A La1.8Sr0.2Cu04 pellet was cut into 1 mm thick slices from which 3 mm discs were cut. The discs were subsequently mechanically ground to 100 μm total thickness and dimpled to 20 μm thickness at the center.

Conducting polymers comprises a new class of materials achieving electrical conductivities which rival those of the best metals. The parent compounds (conjugated polymers) are quasi-one-dimensional semiconductors. These polymers can be doped by electron acceptors or electron donors. The prototype of these materials is polyacetylene (PA). There are various other conjugated polymers such as polyparaphenylene, polyphenylenevinylene, polypoyrrole or polythiophene. The doped systems, i.e. the conducting polymers, have intersting potential technological applications such as replacement of conventional metals in electronic shielding and antistatic equipment, rechargable batteries, and flexible light emitting diodes.Although these systems have been investigated almost 20 years, the electronic structure of the doped metallic systems is not clear and even the reason for the gap in undoped semiconducting systems is under discussion.

Amino-functional polyethers have emerged as a new class of “smart”, i.e. pH- and thermoresponsive materials. This review article summarizes the synthesis and applications of these materials, obtained from ring-opening of suitable epoxide monomers.
