PHOTODYNAMIC THERAPY OF NORMAL CEREBRAL TISSUE IN THE CAT: A NONINVASIVE MODEL FOR CEREBROVASCULAR THROMBOSIS

The early neuropathological response of normal cat brain to photodynamic therapy was investigated. Photofrin II was injected (IV) into a cat and photoactivated with red light from a filtered incandescent lamp. Animals were subjected to phototherapy either through the intact skull or with energy deposition onto the intact dura. Following photoactivation the animals were maintained for 6 h after which time the brain was removed and sections submitted for electron microscopic and or light microscopic study. Gross anatomical analysis of the photoactivated brain revealed hemorrhagic dusky discoloration limited to the area of the tissue illuminated. Animals that failed to show a lesion were cats characterized by low Photofrin II dosage and low photoactivation intensity. The microscopic cortical features of cats with lesions included prominent capillary congestion and regions of marked vacuolization and rarefaction. Blood vessels were structurally altered and the lumen of many vessels was completely filled with tightly packed erythrocytes. Our study suggests that the acute neuropathological response of cerebral tissue to photoactivation resembles that of microvascular thrombosis. It is thus reasonable to explore PDT of normal tissue as a non invasive model of cerebrovascular thrombosis in the cat.     

含铁磁耦合Ni3单元的均苯三甲酸桥联双层镍(II)配合物

使用均苯三甲酸与碳酸镍在水热条件下反应得到了一例新的二维双层Ni(II)配位聚合物Ni3(BTC)2(μ-H2O)26H2O。二维层包含syn-syn羧酸桥和水桥连接的三核Ni3单元,进一步用均苯三甲酸上的苯环连接成二维层状结构。磁性研究表明,相邻Ni2+离子间存在弱的铁磁耦合作用。水桥连镍离子的桥联键角为122.8(3)deg,所以通过该水桥镍离子间应该呈现反铁磁耦合。因此,实验结果证明了syn-syn羧酸桥传递铁磁耦合,而且铁磁耦合大于反铁磁作用,最终配合物呈弱的铁磁耦合。基于本工作和文献报道的含syn-syn 羧酸混合桥联镍配合物的磁性,我们总结出下面结论：Ni–O–C–O–Ni的共面性与否决定了配合物的磁性。共面性好的Ni–O–C–O–Ni导致中等强度的反铁磁耦合,而共面性差会消弱反铁磁作用,甚至出现由反铁磁变为铁磁耦合。标题配合物中羧酸桥所传递的铁磁性可能就归因于Ni–O–C–O–Ni的不共平面性。因此,与含羧酸桥的混合桥联双核铜(II)配合物类似,轨道补偿效应(the orbital complementary effect (OCE))对于解释水/羧酸混合桥联镍(II)配合物的磁性也同样适用。     

Photoacoustic investigation of the effective diffusivity of two-layer semiconductors

The problem of the effective thermal diffusivity of two-layer systems is investigated using the photoacoustic spectroscopy. The experimental results are examined in terms of the effective thermal parameters of the composite system determined from a homogeneous material that produces the same physical response under an external perturbation in the detector device. It is shown that the effective thermal conductivity is not symmetric under exchange of the two layers of the composite, i.e. the effective thermal parameters depend upon which layer is illuminated in the photoacoustic experiments. Particular emphasis is given to the characterization of the interface thermal conductivity between the layer system.     

Conformational dynamics for chemical sensing: simplicity and diversity

Controllable switching between two stable conformations of inherently dynamic chemical architectures can be exploited as a potent signal transduction mechanism for chemical sensing. In this article are highlighted selected examples of this emerging class of shape-adaptive molecular sensors that are built with simplicity in their operating principles but with diversity in their structural designs.

Effects of adsorbates on electron spin polarization in low energy electron diffraction from tungsten (001): II. Ordered CO overlayer

Electron spin polarization and intensity profiles have been measured in low electron diffraction (LEED) for the (00) beam at θ = 13° and ø = 0° from a W(001) surface exposed to CO and annealed to obtain an ordered c(2 × 2) CO overlayer. The annealed surface with additional CO adsorbed was also studied. The polarization was found to be sensitive to the surface condition and the very distinct P?V profile corresponding to the c(2 × 2) overlayer is believed to be a very sensitive indicator of CO in the β₃ phase. The properties of the annealed surface exposed to further CO suggest the use of this surface as a low energy electron spin polarization analyzer.     

Nuclear γ-rays induced by pions stopping in 55Mn

Stopping pions have been shown to excite the 126 keV level in a target of ⁵⁵Mn. A nonlinear variation of yield of the γ-ray versus target thickness suggests that the principal mechanism responsible for the excitation is a two-stage process. The production mechanism for the same γ-ray seen elsewhere in kaonic atoms experiments is discussed.
