Published 1999Staff ViewISSN: 1360-0443Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: MedicinePsychologyNotes: Aims. To investigate the hypothesis that increasing alcohol consumption is accompanied by increasing use of acute, but decreasing use of preventative, medical services among the general population. Design and participants. Health and life-style survey of 41 000 randomly-sampled adults in SE England who self-completed a validated questionnaire covering socio-demographics, alcohol and tobacco usage and use of acute (A&E department and general practitioner) and preventative (dental, optician, mammography and cervical cytology) services: the response rate was 60%. Measurements. Comparative use of acute and preventative health care services by patients with varying consumption of alcoholic beverages. This was estimated by the odds ratio for service use, after correcting for the following confounding variables; age, social class, ethnic group, employment status, whether lives with children or with other adults, whether is a carer, limiting long-term illness, depression status, smoking habit and use of private health insurance. Findings. There was increased use of accident and emergency services by the harmful and intermediate drinking groups compared with the safe drinking group. Male abstainers attended their A&E departments more frequently than 'safe limit' drinkers. With respect to preventative services, both male and female abstainers and harmful drinkers used dental services less than safe limit drinkers. For females, mammography and cervical cytology services were less frequently used by abstainers and by harmful drinkers. Conclusions. This study supports the generally held view that heavy alcohol consumers are disproportionate users of acute medical services but they are relative under-users of preventative medical care services. Alcohol abstainers are also over-users of acute services, but under-users of preventative services. These latter observations are relevant to the claims that moderate alcohol consumers have lower apparent morbidity and mortality rates compared to abstainers.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1089-7623Source: AIP Digital ArchiveTopics: PhysicsElectrical Engineering, Measurement and Control TechnologyNotes: In order to explore and develop technology required for the magnetic suspension of objects over large ranges of orientation, a small-scale laboratory system, the large-angle magnetic suspension test fixture (LAMSTF) has been constructed at NASA Langley Research Center. This apparatus falls into the category of large-gap, actively stabilized magnetic levitation systems. The hardware comprises five conventional electromagnets in a circular arrangement, each driven from a separate bipolar power amplifier. Electromagnet currents are commanded by a digital control system, implemented on a microcomputer, which in turn derives the position and attitude of the suspended element from an infrared optical system. The suspended element is a cylindrical, axially magnetized, permanent magnet core, within an aluminum tube. The element is "levitated'' by repulsive forces, with its axis horizontal, 0.1 m above the top plane of the electromagnet conductor. The element is stabilized in five degrees-of-freedom, with rotation about the cylinder axis not controlled. By mechanical rotation of the sensor assembly, the suspended element can be made to undergo a full 360° rotation about the vertical axis. The controller accommodates the changes in magnetic coupling between the electromagnets and the suspended element by real-time adaptation of a decoupling matrix. This report presents a review of the background to the problem of magnetic suspension over large ranges of orientation. Next, the design and operation procedures adopted for LAMSTF, and the system hardware are described. Finally, some performance measurements are shown, together with illustration that the major design objective—the 360° rotation, has been accomplished.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 2005Staff ViewISSN: 1471-4159Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: MedicineNotes: We investigated the effects of agents that induce reelin mRNA expression in vitro on the methylation status of the human reelin promoter in neural progenitor cells (NT2). NT2 cells were treated with the histone deacetylase inhibitors, trichostatin A (TSA) and valproic acid (VPA), and the methylation inhibitor aza-2′-deoxycytidine (AZA) for various times. All three drugs reduced the methylation profile of the reelin promoter relative to untreated cells. The acetylation status of histones H3 and H4 increased following treatment with VPA and TSA at times as short as 15 min following treatment; a result consistent with the reported mode of action of these drugs. Chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments showed that these changes were accompanied by changes occurring at the level of the reelin promoter as well. Interestingly, AZA decreased reelin promoter methylation without concomittantly increasing histone acetylation. In fact, after prolonged treatments with AZA, the acetylation status of histones H3 and H4 decreased relative to untreated cells. We also observed a trend towards reduced methylated H3 after 18 h treatment with TSA and VPA. Our data indicate that while TSA and VPA act to increase histone acetylation and reduce promoter methylation, AZA acts only to decrease the amount of reelin promoter methylation.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 2000Staff ViewISSN: 1365-2958Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyMedicineNotes: The dnaK operon of Streptomyces coelicolor encodes the DnaK chaperone machine and HspR, the transcriptional repressor of the operon; HspR confers repression by binding to several inverted repeat sequences in the promoter region, dnaKp. Here, we demonstrate that HspR specifically requires the presence of DnaK protein to retard a dnaKp fragment in gel-shift assays. This requirement is independent of the co-chaperones, DnaJ and GrpE, and it is ATP independent. Furthermore the retarded protein–DNA complex can be ‘supershifted’ by anti-DnaK monoclonal antibody, demonstrating that DnaK forms an integral component of the complex. It was shown in DNase I footprinting experiments that refolding and specific binding of HspR to its DNA target does not require DnaK. We conclude that the formation of the stable DnaK–HspR–DNA ternary complex does not depend on the chaperoning activity of DnaK. In affinity chromatography experiments using whole-cell extracts, DnaK was shown to co-purify with HspR, providing additional evidence that the two proteins interact in vivo; it was not possible to purify HspR away from DnaK in any experiments unless a powerful denaturant was used. The level of heat shock induction of chromosomal DnaK could be partially suppressed by expressing dnaK extrachromosomally from a heterologous promoter. In addition, it is shown that DnaK confers enhanced HspR-mediated repression of transcription in vitro. Taken together, these results suggest that DnaK functions as a transcriptional co-repressor by binding to HspR at its operator sites. In this model, the DnaK–HspR system would represent a novel example of feedback regulation of gene expression by a molecular chaperone, in which DnaK directly activates a repressor, rather than inactivates an activator (as is the case in the DnaK–σ32 and Hsp70–HSF systems of other organisms).Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Specificity of both enrichment serology methods was about 92–99.4%. Sensitivity of Micromethod was better than that of the Macromethod for the environmental samples (86.8 and 74.1%, respectively) and the poultry meat samples (87.5 and 77.5%, respectively) but was the same for the nonfat dry milk samples (82.5%). the costs of both methods were respectively 0.43 US $ for the Macromethod and 0.20 US $ for the Micromethod. This “Micromethod” could be proposed for the screening of Salmonella positive batches in the food industries.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1745-4581Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyNotes: Listeria monocytogenes is recognized as a serious foodborne pathogen in humans. However, an adequate enumeration method is still lacking for the examination of food products which are usually contaminated at low levels, 〈 100 CFU g−1. The improvement of Listeria enumeration has given place to a considerable sum of research tasks, leading to the proposal of several alternative methods. Several attempts to enumerate L. monocytogenes with the most probable number technique or with methods based on molecular biology or bacteria concentration techniques have been reported. The objective of this paper is to synthesize the current knowledge concerning L. monocytogenes enumeration, by focusing particularly on the problem of the enumeration of low numbers.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 2002Staff ViewISSN: 1089-7690Source: AIP Digital ArchiveTopics: PhysicsChemistry and PharmacologyNotes: Three polynuclear transition metal carbonyl cluster anions, Ru3Co(CO)13−, Ru6C(CO)162−, and Ru6(CO)182− have been studied using energy-dependent electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (EDESI–MS) and photodetachment photoelectron spectroscopy (PES). EDESI–MS maps show a simple collision-induced dissociation (CID) process for Ru3Co(CO)n− by stripping CO down to the metal core. For the doubly charged species, two competing CID channels were observed, viz. loss of neutral CO and loss of CO+e−. It was found that the parent dianions first lose neutral CO down to n=9, producing a series of dianions, Ru6C(CO)n2− (n=9–16) and Ru6(CO)n2− (n=9–18). For n〈9, the dianions become electronically unstable against autodetachment, and singly charged anions, Ru6C(CO)n− and Ru6(CO)n− (n=0–9), were observed. The PES spectra of the dianions show the electron binding energies decrease monotonically as n decreases and become ∼0.0 eV for n=9, in exact agreement with the CID patterns that reflect the electronic instability of the doubly charged metal complexes with n〈9. All of the PES spectra show congested features, indicating very high density of low-lying electronic states for the transition metal carbonyl clusters. The electron binding energies of Ru3Co(CO)n− are similar for n=4–13, but decrease sharply from n=4 to 0. The intramolecular Coulomb repulsion in the dianions was observed to increase with loss of CO, ranging from ∼1.8 eV for Ru6C(CO)162− to ∼2.4 eV for Ru6C(CO)92−. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 2000Staff ViewISSN: 1365-3091Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: GeosciencesNotes: The growth and subsequent dissolution of salts on or within sediment may alter sedimentary structures and textures to such an extent that it is difficult to identify the depositional origin of that sediment and, as a result, the sediment may be misinterpreted. To help to overcome such problems with investigating ancient successions, results are presented from a comprehensive study of the morphology and fabrics of three large areas of modern salt flats in SE Arabia: the Sabkhat Matti inland region and the At Taf coastal region, both in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, and the Umm as Samim region in Oman. These salt flats are affected by tidal-marine, alluvial and aeolian depositional processes and include both clastic- and carbonate-dominated surficial sediments. The efflorescent and precipitated salt crusts in these areas can be grouped into two main types: thick crusts, with high relief (〉10 cm) and a polygonal or blocky morphology; or thin crusts, with low relief (〈10 cm) and a polygonal or blister-like appearance. The thin crusts may assume the surface morphology of underlying features, such as ripples or biogenic mats. A variety of small-scale textures were observed: pustular growths, hair-like spikes and irregular wrinkles. Evolution of these crusts over time results in a variety of distinctive sedimentary fabrics produced by salt-growth sediment deformation, salt-solution sediment collapse, sediment aggradation and compound mixtures of these processes. Salt-crust processes produce features that may be confused with aeolian adhesion structures. An example from the Lower Triassic Ormskirk Sandstone Formation of the Irish Sea Basin demonstrates how this knowledge of modern environments improves the interpretation of the rock record. A distinctive wavy-laminated facies in this formation had previously been interpreted as the product of fluvial sheetfloods modified by soft-sediment deformation and bioturbation. Close inspection of laminations seen in core reveals many of the same sedimentary fabrics seen in SE Arabia associated with salt crusts. This facies is the product of salt growth on aeolian sediment and is not of fluvial origin.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1095-8649Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyNotes: Hermaphroditic sexual patterns are widespread among teleosts and are especially characteristic of certain perciform families. Among the most diverse groups of hermaphroditic species are the groupers, hamlets and sea basses of the family Serranidae. Like other groupers, the epinepheline serranid, Epinephelus striatus, the Nassau grouper, has long been assumed to exhibit monandric protogyny (a form of hermaphroditism in which all males derive from adult females by sex change). Histological and demographic data, however, indicate that the sexual pattern of this species is not monandric, and that, unlike other group species, the juveniles pass through a bisexual stage of gonadal development. Sexuality in the Nassau grouper is essentially gonochoristic, with potential for sex change. The combination of bisexuality and gonochorism is previously undescribed in the serranids.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL:
