SummaryThe catabolism of the novel plasminogen activator reteplase (BM 06.022) was described. For this purpose BM 06.022 was radiolabelled with l25I or with the accumulating label l25I-tyramine cellobiose (l25I-TC).BM 06.022 was injected at a pharmacological dose of 380 μg/kg b.w. and it was cleared from the plasma in a biphasic manner with a half-life of about 1 min in the α-phase and t1/2of 20-28 min in the β-phase. 28% and 72% of the injected dose was cleared in the α-phase and β-phase, respectively. Initially liver, kidneys, skin, bones, lungs, spleen, and muscles contributed mainly to the plasma clearance. Only liver and the kidneys, however, were responsible for the uptake and subsequent degradation of BM 06.022 and contributed for 75% to the catabolism of BM 06.022. BM 06.022 was degraded in the lysosomal compartment of both organs. Parenchymal liver cells were responsible for 70% of the liver uptake of BM 06.022. BM 06.022 associated rapidly to isolated rat parenchymal liver cells and was subsequently degraded in the lysosomal compartment of these cells. BM 06.022 bound with low-affinity to the parenchymal liver cells (550 nM) and the binding of BM 06.022 could be displaced by t-PA (IC50 5.6 nM), indicating that the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP) could be involved in the binding of BM 06.022. GST-RAP, which is an inhibitor of LRP, could in vivo significantly inhibit the uptake of BM 06.022 in the liver.It is concluded that BM 06.022 is metabolized primarily in the liver and the kidneys. These organs take up and degrade BM 06.022 in the lysosomes. The uptake mechanism of BM 06.022 in the kidneys is unknown, while LRP is responsible for a low-affinity binding and uptake of BM 06.022 in parenchymal liver cells.

ABSTRACTThe mechanical alloying behavior of elemental powders in the Nb-Si, Ta-Si, and Nb-Ta-Si systems was examined via X-ray diffraction. The line compounds NbSi2 and TaSi2 form as crystalline compounds rather than amorphous products, but Nb5Si3 and Ta5Si3, although chemically analogous, respond very differently to mechanical milling. The Ta5Si3 composition goes directly from elemental powders to an amorphous product, whereas Nb5Si3 forms as a crystalline compound. The Nb5Si3 compound consists of both the tetragonal room-temperature α phase (c/a = 1.8) and the tetragonal high-temperature β phase (c/a = 0.5). Substituting increasing amounts of Ta for Nb in Nb5Si3 initially stabilizes the α-Nb5Si3 structure preferentially, and subsequently inhibits the formation of a crystalline compound.

The structure of single crystals of the organic metals α- and β-(BEDT-TTF)2I3* was determined at 100 K, well below the phase transitions indicated by resistivity and thermopower measurements as well as by differential thermal analysis. In the α-phase no unusual change of the room temperature unit cell but a slight variation in the triiodide network and especially a more pronounced dimerization in one of the two donor stacks have been found. The β-phase develops a superstructure with a unit cell volume three times as large as that at room temperature and with pronounced distortions of the I3--ions.

The polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanofiber has widely investigated as a sensor and transducer material, because of its high piezo and Ferro electric properties. The novel nano structure of PVDF has attracted considerable interest in the bio sensing and biomedical application. This paper deals with PVDF Tactile sensor. Basically The PVDF acts as piezoelectric effect which convert load into electrical signals. The tactile sensor has a main role for visual handicap and robotics. Any physical activities of robotic in all industrial the tactile sensor is a crucible role, whether it can left the object or handling glass parts pressure of object is main. The Sandwich type PVDF base tactile sensor has been fabricated using nanofiber. Using electro spinning method, the PVDF based nanofiber coated over coper the electrodes. In normal, the PVDF has α-phase and while applying electric pulse the PVDF polymer would be changed from α-phase into β-phase. Only in β-phase, the PVDF act as piezo electrics sensor and measure the piezoelectricity simultaneously measure pressure and temperature in real time. The pressure was monitored from the change in the electrical resistance via the piezo resistance of the material. The enhancement of PVDF properties has been carried by using SEM. The SEM image result showed that the size of nanofiber, the size of nanofiber is varied in the range of (180 nm-400 nm) with smooth surface. The X-Ray diffraction has shown that the PVDF was aggregated with the β-phase crystalline nature. Due to β-phase it was act as a piezo electric prosperity’s and its results are very high sensitivity.

This paper helps in understanding the effects of cryogenic treatment on microstructural variation, hardness and wear behavior of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The microstructure indicates white β-phase dispersed on the grain boundaries of dark α-phase. Cryogenic treatment at-186 °C for 10 h led to the transformation from β-phase to α-phase, resulting in coarsening of α. Hardness of the cryogenically treated sample was observed to decrease and wear loss was observed to increase; this can be attributed to the coarsening of α-phase.

The plastic deformation mechanism of Ti-55531 alloy with bimodal microstructure was investigated by compression testing at room temperature. The bimodal microstructure was composed of equiaxed primary α phase (αp) and transformed β (βtrans) that consisted of acicular secondary α phase (αs) and residual β phase (βr). In the initial stage of deformation, the αp grains first underwent plastic deformation, the dislocations germinated and increased, forming the dislocation loop with the dislocation free zone in αp at the true stain of 0.083. With the true strain subsequently increasing to 0.105, the dislocation tangle and dislocation pile-up occurred in αp, and a lot of dislocations were also activated in most of αs. Moreover, the dislocation density was increasing gradually in βr with the adding of strain. Finally, the dislocation pile-up and dislocation tangle appeared in αs and βr at the true strain of 0.163. The whole deformation process was coordinated by αp, αs and βr. They accommodated mutually and completed deformation together.

Ti-(5–20)Nb-(0.5–1)O alloys (mass%) were investigated for developing low-cost biomedical α+β-type Ti alloy. Ti-(5, 10, 15, 20)Nb-(0.5, 0.75, 1)O alloys (mass%) were arc-melted and forged into bars. The forged alloy bars were heat-treated at 873 to 1373 K for 3.6 ks in an Ar atmosphere and quenched in iced water. β transus (Tβ) of the Ti-Nb-O alloys decreased with increasing Nb content. An increase in the oxygen content led to an increase in Tβ. After quenching, the formation of α′ martensite was observed in Ti-5Nb-yO alloys. An increase in the Nb content to 10 mass% led to the formation of α′ and α″ martensites. A further increase in the Nb content to 15 and 20mass% resulted in the formation of more α″ martensites. The boundary temperature for the formation of α′ and α″ martensite in the Ti-10Nb-yO alloys increased with increasing oxygen content, because oxygen enhances the Nb distribution to the β phase. The ultimate tensile strength of the Ti-xNb-0.75O alloys heattreated to obtain the α-phase fraction (fα) of 0.5 was over 1000 MPa, except for the Ti-15Nb-0.75O alloy. The total elongation decreased with increasing Nb content. The Ti-5Nb-0.75O alloy exhibited excellent strength-ductility balance as a low-cost α+β-type biomedical Ti alloy.
