脂肪族聚酯与高氯酸锂络合物的结构与导电性

本文通过酯交换反应合成了一系列脂肪族聚丁二酸酯,对他们的结构和性能作了表征。发现聚酯存在多晶现象,其熔点有奇偶性变化规律。探索了由此系列聚酯与高氯酸锂形成的固体电解质的结构和离子导电性。无机盐的加入提高了电解质的玻璃化温度但降低了聚酯的熔点及结晶度。聚酯电解质的晶体类似于聚酯,其无机盐主要溶解于聚酯的无定形区域。聚酯系列电解质的导电率也有偶奇效应,与熔点变化相反;熔点高的电解质导电率低,熔点低的电解质导电率高。电解质的导电率随温度改变而变化,在室温下电解质的导电率可达10~(-6)s/cm。高分子链上侧基的引入将大大降低电解质的导电性。     

Minorities and AIDS: knowledge, attitudes, and misconceptions among black and Latino adolescents.

White adolescents in San Francisco high schools were more knowledgeable than Black adolescents about the cause, transmission, and prevention of AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome), and Black adolescents were more knowledgeable than their Latino peers. Black and Latino adolescents were approximately twice as likely as White adolescents to have misconceptions about the casual transmission of AIDS. Less knowledge about AIDS and prevalent misconceptions were associated with greater levels of perceived risk of contracting AIDS.     

Increased procollagenase activating angiogenic factor in the vitreous humour of oxygen treated kittens.

Previous studies have demonstrated an increase in a low molecular weight angiogenic factor (ESAF) present in the retinae of kittens with oxygen induced retinopathy. The present paper describes differences in the quantity of ESAF extracted from the vitreous humour of control and oxygen treated animals and proposes a mechanism for the induction of intravitreal neovascularisation.     

Radiotherapy of periocular basal cell carcinomas: recurrence rates and treatment with special attention to the medical canthus.

Basal cell carcinomas of the eyelids, especially those in the medial canthal area, may cause extensive local destruction. Recurrent tumours are more aggressive and become progressively more difficult to treat; this is especially true for postirradiated recurrent, medial canthal, basal cell carcinomas. Tumours in this area should thus be treated by a technique which allows tissue sampling in order to gauge the adequacy of the treatment, with the goal being complete extirpation of the tumour. Excision monitored by frozen section control or Mohs' surgery is our recommendation based on a retrospective analyses of 631 eyelid basal cell carcinomas, half of which were primary tumours and half recurrent.     

Cavernous haemangioma presenting as an orbital mass after enucleation for a choroidal melanoma: case report.

A patient presented with an ipsilateral orbital mass four years after enucleation for a choroidal malignant melanoma. Clinical examination revealed a darkly coloured mass suggestive of recurrent melanoma. CT scanning indicated a locally extensive tumour. Management was by excision without resort to orbital exenteration. Pathological examination revealed a cavernous haemangioma. The natural history of this tumour is discussed.     

Stereoscopic evoked responses to crossed and uncrossed disparity accompanying simulated refractive error.

Evoked potentials were recorded to the occurrence of a disparate stimulus in dynamic random dot stereograms. Seven adult males, all of whom had vision which was normal or corrected to normal, participated in the experiment. Subjects viewed 100 ms duration stimuli which embodied 30 arc min of either crossed or uncrossed disparity under four conditions of spherical overcorrection: -0.25, +1.0, +2.0, +3.0 dioptres. The first condition, essentially normal refraction, yielded reliable behavioural reports of the stimulus and clear evoked potentials to both crossed and uncrossed disparity. With increasing overcorrection the behavioural reports became less reliable, and the evoked potentials were degraded for both conditions of disparity. The responses to the crossed disparity condition, however, showed significantly less degradation in both behavioural and electrophysiological measures. The implications of this finding may be that there are separate cortical subsystems for the processing of crossed and uncrossed disparity and that the former is more robust under non-ideal viewing conditions.     

2,5-Hexanedione excretion after occupational exposure to n-hexane.

The urinary excretion of the n-hexane metabolite 2,5-hexanedione (HD) was determined in four shoe factory workers during four workingdays that were preceded by four free days and followed by two free days. The correlation between excretion of HD and the n-hexane concentrations in the workroom air was evaluated. The air concentrations of n-hexane and those of acetone, toluene, and other organic solvents were monitored with charcoal tubes. All the urine from each worker was collected at freely chosen intervals during the experimental period and the following two free days. The samples were analysed by gas chromatography. The relative excretion of HD increased as the exposure to n-hexane increased, although it seemed that HD accumulated progressively in the body at the highest n-hexane concentrations and at higher total solvent concentrations.
