Microalgal Community

The composition and biomass of the microalgal community at the water-column/sediment interface on the continental shelf off Parana State (Brazil) were studied every 2 months during 1999. Samples for cell identification and determination of chlorophyll a were taken from the interface layer and at discrete depths up to 4 m above the sediment. Results showed a community mainly formed by benthic and planktonic diatoms >30 µm, benthic diatoms <30 µm and cyanobacteria. Cell densities were generally higher at the interface layer. Resuspension and sedimentation events seemed to be a paramount factor regulating the composition and biomass of these communities, and affected differently cells of different size classes. Cells >30 µm, which accounted for most of the pigment biomass, were resuspended from the interface after turbulent periods, and may take advantage of calm periods to stay and grow at the interface. Small benthic diatoms were more susceptible to wind-induced turbulence occurring in higher densities in the water column just above the water-sediment interface. A cyanobacterial bloom (Trichodesmiun) was observed at these bottom layers in the spring-summer periods.

The results of histochemical analysis of three muscles m. triceps brachii (MTB), m. longissimus thoracicus (MLT) and m. rectus femoris (MRF) of two groups of pigs created according to the genotypes MYF 4 are presented. Determination of MYF 4 genotypes was made by PCR method and for histochemical analysis was used 5 animals detected as homozygote MYF 4- AA type and 5 animals of heterozygote genotype myogenin-AB out of the total of 25 individual animals tested. The histochemical analysis proved that homozygotes AA have had bigger fat cells than heterozygotes AB in three studied muscles in average. The size of fat cells in MLT - 41.10?m or 38.50 ?m respectively dominated in both groups of animals. Percentage surface representation of interstitial tissues was higher in the studied muscles of heterozygote MYF 4-AB. The volume of ligaments was the highest in MRF (3.80% or 3.90% respectively) in both groups (myogenin - AA and AB). The average thickness was of three studied muscles muscle fibres higher at homozygote genotype myogenin-AA than in heterozygote myogenin-AB. The thickest fibres in both genotypes were in MRF (88.60 ?m, and 84.72 ?m respectively) and the lowest in MTB (73.30 and 69.40 ?m respectively). The highest values of muscle fibres thickness were detected in ?-White fibres. Their percentage surface representation corresponded to this in all three types of muscles of both studied genotype myogenin groups.

Background: The Blue bull (Boselaphus tragocamelus) is one of the biggest antelopes in Asia and is widely distributed in both the forests and adjoining villages with enough green grass.Methods: The present study was carried out on the mandible of six specimens of adult Blue bull (Boselaphus tragocamelus) of either sex. The biometrical parameters were measured by scale, graduated tape and digital Vernier’s caliper. The statistical analysis of the recorded data was done by independent samples t-Test with Systat Software Inc, USA and SPSS 16.0 version software.Result: The mandible of Blue bull consisted of two rami, i.e. horizontal and vertical rami. The two halves of this bone fused incompletely at the mandibular symphysis, situated at the midline. The average length of horizontal ramus of mandible was found to be 24.7±1.02 cm in female, which was significantly less (P less than 0.05) than that of males, where it was recorded as 35.4±1.97 cm. Similarly, the average thickness of vertical ramus at the base was found to be 0.53±0.001 cm in female, which was significantly less (P less than 0.05) than that of males, where it was recorded as 0.80±0.002 cm. The average cranio-caudal length of mandibular notch was found to be 1.32±0.01 cm in female, which was significantly less (P less than 0.05) than that of males, where it was recorded as 1.44±0.02 cm. Most of the biometrical observations on different parameters of mandible of Blue bull were having significantly (P less than 0.05) more values in males than females. Conclusion: Most of the biometrical observations on different parameters of mandible of Blue bull were having significantly (p less than 0.05) more values in males than females. The present gross and biometrical studies would be useful to the wild life professionals for determination of sex of this animal and solving vetero-legal cases related with this species.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlations between fundus autofluorescence and morphologic parameters as well as visual function in patients with diabetic macular oedema treated with intravitreal ziv-aflibercept. Methods: A total of 34 eyes of 20 patients with untreated diabetic macular oedema received an intravitreal injection of ziv-aflibercept at baseline, and 1 and 2 months later. The baseline, 1-month, and two-month best corrected visual acuity determination, contrast sensitivity, spectral domain optical coherence tomography, mean central macular thickness, mean macular cube volume, mean macular cube average thickness, and fundus autofluorescence (decreased, normal, or increased; and single or multiple spots) were measured. Correlation analysis with a determination of Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient, regression analysis, agreement between investigators, and Friedman’s test were used for statistical analyses. Results: A direct correlation was observed between baseline fundus autofluorescence and macular cube average thickness at 1 month (r = 0.51, p = 0.020) and between fundus autofluorescence at 1 month and baseline macular cube average thickness (r = 0.50, p = 0.021). Regression analysis showed a coefficient of determination of 0.29 (p = 0.016) between baseline fundus autofluorescence and macular cube average thickness at 1 month. Conclusion: In patients with diabetic macular oedema, the pretreatment baseline degree of foveal fundus autofluorescence might be helpful in predicting macular cube average thickness in patients undergoing treatment with intravitreal ziv-aflibercept in the short term.

Soil compaction mainly occurs in occasions related with agricultural traffic, when the soil is subjected to various applied loads by different types of agricultural implements. Soil surface compaction and deep soil compaction occurs because of soil-tyre interaction process that will modify the initial stress state. This will alter the initial soil physical properties, so it is possible to evaluate the soil compaction by measuring their variation. This paper presents a tool and a method for experimental determination, in laboratory conditions, of soil cone index at soil-tyre interface layer and on soil profile, being focused only on data related with soil cone index influenced by wheel load and number of passes. The analysis of measured data showed that the analyzed method for experimental determination of soil cone index can be used also in field conditions, for studies related with spatial variation of soil cone index due to agricultural traffic.

In the present work, the Mg/Al bimetallic composites were successfully prepared by the lost foam casting (LFC) process, and the characteristics and formation mechanism of the interface of the Mg/Al bimetallic composites were investigated. The results show that a uniform and compact metallurgical interface with an average thickness of about 1400 μm was formed between magnesium alloy and aluminum alloy. The interface layer of the Mg/Al bimetallic composites was composed of three different reaction layers, namely the Al12Mg17+δ(Mg) eutectic layer adjacent to the magnesium matrix, the Al12Mg17+Mg2Si interlayer and the Al3Mg2+Mg2Si layer close to the aluminum matrix. The microhardnesses of the interface layer were remarkably higher than those of the magnesium and aluminum matrixes. The stress strength of the Mg/Al bimetallic composites was up to 47.67 MPa. The fractograph of the push out sample mainly showed a brittle fracture nature. The formation of the interface of the Mg/Al bimetallic composites was attributed to the fusion and diffusion bonding. With the variations of the concentrations of the different elements at the interface, the Al3Mg2 intermetallic phase first formed near to the aluminum matrix, and then the Al12Mg17 and Mg2Si successively generated toward the magnesium matrix, finally obtaining the interface layer of the Mg/Al bimetallic composites.
