TY - GEN T1 - CLINICAL OLFACTORY PSYCHOPHYSICS AN - 85274973; cs-263723 AB - The project deals with olfaction and the common chemical (irritant) sensein normal persons and patients with olfactory disorders. The work willseek to improve screening tests for patients with primary olfactorycomplaints. Particular psychophysical experiments will focus upon a newadaptive method for measurement of odor threshold in the clinic and a newtest of odor identification predicated upon measurement of odor qualitydiscrimination. A hand-held olfactometer for widespread screening ofolfactory functioning will be subjected to both chemical and psychophysicalscrutiny. Psychophysical tests with more analytical goals than thoseneeded for simple screening will be devised to evaluate facets ofprocessing in patients with secondary olfactory dysfunction. Such testing,which will include odor memory, odor hedonics, will focus on the interfacebetween will be to develop tests for use to evaluate olfactory processingin patients with central neurological disorders and some dementia, such asAlzheimers disease and Huntington's disease. As with the portableolfactometer, the availability of such tests may broaden the study andevaluation of olfaction by professionals who do not now specialize in it.Investigation of the common chemical sense will focus on measurement ofpure nasal irritation in patients with olfactory loss (anosmics).Threshold and reaction time data collected on homologous chemical seriesfrom such persons can shed light on the physicochemical basis forirritation. Stimuli of interest also will include substances implicated inindoor air pollution and some of the experiments will relate directly tomatters of both indoor and outdoor air pollution (e.g., whether mixtures ofchemicals individually at subthreshold levels of irritation can togethertrigger irritation and whether nasal inflammation causes perceptualhypersensitivity). The research will also extend to a subpopulation ofpersons with multiple chemical sensitivities in order to test the whethersuch persons may prove hypersensitive to irritation and may havehyperreactive lower airways. Tests on such persons will include olfactoryassessment, common chemical sense assessment, and pulmonary functiontesting with methacholine challenge. A series of studies will also delveinto early temporal events in human olfaction and possible facilitatoryeffects of odorant-binding protein, a substance that may enhance the speedat which odorants reach olfactory receptors and free nerve endings of thecommon chemical sense. Such studies will entail measurement of reactiontime, threshold, and temporal modulation of olfactory and common chemicalstimulation. JF - JOHN B.

At the time of separation, these men feel they have little influence on their relationship continuing, blame their wives, perceive themselves as victims of an unfair system, & are often uneasy about participating in counseling. A counseling strategy using the "Relationship Chart" process was investigated as a possible means of assisting such men to cope with this major life crisis. Follow-up telephone interviews with 10 men who had participated in this counseling illuminate their reactions & experiences of the process, & suggest areas for further research. 1 Table, 33 References.

This study aimed to assess occupational exposure to MOCA using as indices: (1) the post-work urinary output of MOCA; (2) urinary thioethers, assuming that conjugation with glutathione might be a significant pathway for the elimination of putative electrophilic metabolites of MOCA; and (3) sister-chromatid exchange (SCE) frequency in peripheral lymphocytes as an indicator of genetic damage. Process workers at a polyurethane production unit were found to have up to 38 mu mol MOCA mol super(-1) creatinine in their urine at the end of a work shift. Smaller quantities were found in the urine of laboratory and supervisory staff, but none was detected in the urine of a group of office and sales staff from an unrelated industry, who served as unexposed controls. There was no evidence of MOCA-related urinary thioether output. There was a graded increase in SCE frequency from controls to process workers, consistent with their apparent exposure to MOCA. Administration of MOCA to rats (5 daily i.p. injections of 125 or 250 mg kg super(-1) resulted in dose-related increases in MOCA excretion and in lymphocyte SCE frequency, but there was no change in thioether output. These results indicate that urinary thioether excretion is inappropriate for monitoring MOCA exposure, but that where MOCA exposure can be demonstrated, by the presence of MOCA in urine, this is associated with genetic damage in both man and in the rat.

The natural pattern of the rainfall is characterized by insufficient amounts and unfavorable seasonal distribution, which affects the crop productivity. Supplemental irrigation therefore becomes necessary to avoid water stress to maintain a high level of crop yields. A procedure was developed to estimate probabilistic irrigation requirements for low land rice cultivation. The procedure uses a water-balance equation in which rainfall and evapotranspiration are considered as stochastic variables. The Leaky law, total probability theorem, and SMEMAX (smallest, medium, and maximum) and power transformations were tried to estimate weekly rainfall and normal distribution for estimating weekly evapotranspiration. Because of the zero values in the weekly rainfall data series, the Leaky law was found to most appropriately describe the rainfall amounts and normal distribution for the evapotranspiration data series. Rainfall and evapotranspiration values were later used to estimate weekly irrigation requirements through the water-balance equation. When applied to an irrigation system in Thailand, this model gave satisfactory results, and showed that a significant amount of water can be saved during the rainy season even when the system is operated at relatively high probability (or reliability) levels.

The patterns generated were found to be useful in typing MRSA and generally confirmed the relationships that had previously been recognized in other studies based on antimicrobial resistance and plasmid profiles. The epidemic MRSA of London hospitals (EMRSA) and the majority of the epidemic MRSA of eastern Australian hospitals (EA MRSA) gave the same pattern. However, two isolates previously classified as EA MRSA gave a different pattern and a third another pattern. One isolate from Dublin, two isolates from Nuneaton and two isolates from Singapore gave the same pattern as the two EA MRSA. With the exception of the early or classic MRSA all the other isolates examined gave their own distinctive patterns. With one exception the classic MRSA belonged to a separate group. The exception was of particular interest because it gave the same pattern as the majority of the EA MRSA.

Patients often have a characteristic annular erythematous rash, erythema migrans. Occasionally this rash has a vesicular component. Early neurological presentations include meningitis, cranial neuritis, and radicular pain syndromes. Reticuloendothelial involvement occurs, but splenomegaly occurs infrequently. We report a case of Lyme borreliosis in which the patient presented with a vesicular erythematous rash, radicular pain, and splenomegaly.

Approaches to hapten-protein conjugation AN - 16718419; 3506053 AB - Three different chemical approaches were used to couple the organophosphorus pesticide fenitrothion to carrier proteins for production of polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies. Hapten conjugates coupled through the pesticide phosphate group yielded the most specific and highest affinity antibodies, although antibodies of moderate affinity were obtained by derivatization and coupling through the aromatic nitro group following its reduction and amide formation with an adipic acid spacer arm. Assay formats using either immobilized antibody or immobilized hapten-protein conjugate could be used to determine free fenitrothion. The most sensitive assay could detect 1 ng of fenitrothion.

From the model, the concept of determining optimal lifting postures based on minimizing the reaction force at the L4/L5 joint subject to all other muscle/joint complexes not being overstressed is developed. Various moment-load relationships for the various joints are computed along with moment-moment relationships between various joints which were shown to well match experimental results. The model was able to propose many interesting and practical suggestions in the area of manual material handling tasks, especially the lifting aspect.

AN - 16662703; 3023992 AB - Seven strains of Hafnia alvei isolated from diarrhoeal stools of children resembled enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) in that they produced attaching-effacing (AE) lesions in rabbit ileal loops and fluorescent actin staining in infected HEp-2 cells. In addition, a DNA probe from a chromosomal gene required by EPEC to produce AE lesions, hybridised to chromosomal DNA from all seven H. alvei strains. These findings indicate that there is a sharing of virulence-associated properties at the phenotypic and genetic levels by H. alvei and EPEC. H. alvei strains with these properties should be considered diarrhoeagenic.

Plasmids which could not be transferred by transduction or mixed-culture transfer were transferred from phage-typable and non-typable S. aureus and from S. epidermidis . Plasmids encoding single resistance determinants were transferred by mobilization whereas multiple-resistance plasmids were transferred as co-integrates between the conjugative and non-conjugative plasmids. This study demonstrates that mobilisation is a useful tool for the transfer and study of staphylococcal plasmids and illustrates how antibiotic resistance could be transferred between staphylococci in vivo .

AN - 16590341; 3029672 AB - Twenty-six clinical isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) collected from six Australian hospitals by a National Staphylococcal Study Group were examined by analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) of chromosomal DNA with pulsed field gel electrophoresis. Digestion with the restriction endonuclease SmaI produced 13-17 bands of 7-700 kb. The digestion patterns were easily distinguished and isolates could be classified into 17 groups based on their RFLPs. Isolates giving a pattern associated with one group were from four hospitals in four different states. In another group, the isolates responsible were from three hospitals in two states and in a further group, the isolates were derived from two hospitals in different states. The remaining groups comprised only one member each. The method has promise for typing and studying the epidemiology of MRSA.

AN - 16524009; 2962849 AB - Persistent disagreement both as to the interpretation to be given to sustainability, and as to the relation between ecological and economic sustainability, has hindered the development of an ecological economics of sustainable resource use. This paper identifies the main concepts of sustainability deriving from the two disciplines in order to explore the difference implied by an ecological approach to the problem. It is argued that present economic and ecological approaches are largely disjoint, and that they address basically different phenomena. By combining the efficiency requirements of what is usually thought of as economic sustainability with the stability requirements of an ecological approach, it is shown that an intertemporally efficient allocation of resources that satisfies the conditions for constant levels of consumption is not necessary to assure ecological sustainability.

AN - 16523061; 2964751 AB - Nifedipine (10.0 mg/kg) was administered to mice together with graded doses of ethanol (0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 and 4.5 g/kg), and activity measured over a 2-hr period following administration. Low ethanol doses increased activity, whereas the highest dose decreased it. By itself, nifedipine had no effect on activity, but when combined with ethanol it produced a consistent decrease in comparison with ethanol alone. This occurred irrespective of whether the ethanol dose alone increased or decreased activity. These results demonstrate a clear interaction between nifedipine and ethanol which cannot be characterized as simple potentiation or antagonism. Time-course data showed that the effects of nifedipine were apparent within 10-20 min of drug administration, but, in the case of highest ethanol dose, increased toward the end of the 2-hr period. Retardation of the development of acute tolerance may contribute to the interaction between ethanol and nifedipine. JF - ALCOHOL ALCOHOLISM. AU - White, J M AU - Smith, A M AD - Dep. Clin. and Exp.

AN - 16522807; 2962851 AB - The stability of fishery population models often depends upon the form of the underlying stock-recruitment (SR) relationship, yet this relationship generally cannot be defined from actual fishery data. I use a simple SR model to show that the ability to characterize a SR relationship depends upon both natural mortality (M) during the prerecruit period, which is associated with a species' fecundity, and the variability of M. The SR relationship may be readily determined in species with low fecundities, even if the variability of M is relatively high. However, the SR relationship generally cannot be defined in species, such as teleosts, with high fecundities if prerecruit M exhibits even moderate variability because small variations in M lead to large changes in survivorship. Thus, the concept of a simple deterministic SR relationship does not appear applicable to organisms with high fecundities.

AN - 16516951; 2960679 AB - Materials handling tasks in industry are rarely performed in the midsagittal plane. Often these tasks, labeled nonsagittally symmetric or asymmetric lifting tasks, can be expected to lead to an unequal distribution of forces between the left and right sides of the body. The present study was designed to quantify coactivation of the trunk musculature in response to applied asymmetric loads. This load was varied in direction from an anterior midsagittal plane orientation to a posterior midsagittal plane orientation in 15-deg increments. The results showed little coactivation when the applied load directions were anterior and within 45 deg of the midsagittal orientation. When load directions were greater than 45 deg, coactivation was quantifiable in ipsilateral and posterior muscle groups.

AN - 16506918; 2948985 AB - F-actin purified from rabbit skeletal muscle undergoes reversible dissociation when subjected to hydrostatic pressures up to 240 MPa. Dissociation and reversibility were detected by the following procedures: fluorescence spectral changes observed under pressure, when either intrinsic tryptophan or pyrenyl emission of N-(1-pyrenyl)iodoacetamide-labeled actin were monitored; electron microscopy of samples fixed under pressure; size-exclusion HPLC of pressurized actin. All pressure/dissociation data could be fitted by a model for dissociation of a dimer, which suggests that in the F-actin filament there is a predominant intersubunit interaction interface, most likely the head-to-tail intrastrand interaction between two subunits which repeats itself along the polymer. This indicates a heterogeneity of free energy of association among actin monomers in the Mg-F-actin polymer, suggesting that, in addition to the predominant intersubunit interaction, the disordered interactions in the filament significantly contribute to the heterogeneity of microenvironments in the interface between the subunits.

AN - 16501577; 2947347 AB - The kinetics of the NADPH-dependent reduction of 7,8-dihydrofolate, folate, and 7,8-dihydrobiopterin by human dihydrofolate reductase have been examined over the pH range from 4.0 to 9.5. The V and V/K profiles obtained with the three substrates indicate that a single ionizing residue at the active site of the enzyme must be protonated for catalysis. Both the maximum velocity of the reactions and the rate of interaction of the substrates with the enzyme-NADPH complex decrease in the order dihydrofolate > dihydrobiopterin >> folate. The folate analogue, 5-deazafolate, is not a substrate, but it undergoes strong interaction with the enzyme. Difference spectra yield evidence for the protonation of bound 5-deazafolate and show that, on binding to the enzyme-NADPH complex, the pK of the N-8 atom is raised to about 10 from a value of about 4 in solution. However, the present findings do not support the idea that bound 5-deazafolate resembles the transition-state complex for folate reduction. Quinazolines also interact strongly with the enzyme but in a pH-independent manner. The dissociation constants for the binary complexes are an order of magnitude lower than that for the binding to the enzyme of unprotonated 5-deazafolate. This difference reflects the hydrophobic nature of the amino acid residues at the active site that are near the N-5 and N-8 nitrogens of bound pterins.

AN - 16496012; 2945078 AB - An energy audit is a fundamental step of the energy conservation programme in any industrial plant or energy consuming facility. An energy-cum-environment audit is an analogous step of a programme aimed at conserving energy in an energy consuming facility and keeping its impacts on the environment within acceptable limits. The energy-cum-environment audit allows a simultaneous consideration of energy and environmental aspects. As a result, it is possible to identify options to reduce the overall cost of energy as well as pollution control. Also some of the principles of energy cost reduction and pollution control are identical. Energy audit and environment audit involve measurement of certain parameters some of which are common to both. JF - Environmentalist AU - Bhattacharya, S C AD - Asian Inst.

AN - 16461443; 2923882 AB - In tree swallows, Tachycineta bicolor , DNA fingerprinting revealed that polygynous males (N = 7) were twice as likely to have unrelated young in their nests as monogamous males (N = 16; 100% versus 50% of males, respectively). However, on average, the total number of nestlings sired by monogamous and polygynous males was similar because polygynous males had two nests. In nests with mixed paternity monogamous and polygynous males had relatively similar proportions of unrelated young per nest. Polygynous males rarely assisted their secondary mate with feeding nestlings, and, as a consequence, secondary mates of polygynous males produced fewer fledglings than females mated to monogamous males. The net effect of these differences in paternity and fledging success was that polygynous males produced fewer genetically-related fledglings from both nests combined than monogamous males produced from their single nest (0.8 versus 3.0 fledglings). Two possible reasons for the difference in extra-pair paternity between polygynous and monogamous males are discussed. In other populations of tree swallows, secondary females are better able to produce fledglings without male assistance, and in these cases polygyny, even with the cost of extra-pair paternity, may be advantageous to males.

AN - 16429210; 2904818 AB - Providencia alcalifaciens is a member of the family Enterobacteriaceae. There are reports that P. alcalifaciens can cause diarrhea, but the mechanism(s) is not known. We studied P. alcalifaciens isolated from a child and two adults with diarrhea for enteropathogenicity. The three isolates did not exhibit any characteristics adherence to culture HEp-2 cell monolayers, and they did not produce enterotoxins, cytotoxins, or keratoconjunctivitis in the Sereny test. Two isolates invaded culture HEp-2 cell monolayers, producing localized bacterial clusters and actin condensation. The pattern of actin condensation was different from that produced by enteropathogenic Escherichia coli but similar to that produced by Shigella flexneri . Invasion and actin condensation were poor for the third isolate. Histology of adult rabbit and small intestinal loops inoculated with all three isolates revealed bacterial attachment to, penetration of, and microulcer formation on the surface epithelium and hyperemia, edema, and polymorphonuclear cell infiltration of lamina propria. All the isolates produced diarrhea in rabbits with removable intestinal ties, and some of these rabbits developed hindlimb paralysis. Intestinal histology of the rabbits with removable intestinal ties which developed diarrhea showed changes similar to that in adult rabbits on which ileal loop assays had been performed. Transmission electron microscopy of intestinal tissues also confirmed tissue penetration by the isolates. Nerve tissue histology of two rabbits that developed hindlimb paralysis showed focal mononuclear cell infiltration around peripheral nerve sheaths. Some strains of P. alcalifaciens are enteropathogenic and cause diarrhea by invading the intestinal mucosal epithelium.

AN - 16422287; 2902515 AB - Recreational boat fishers using the Coffin Bay boat ramp between January and June 1990 were interviewed to obtain information on their fishing activities. Recreational boat fishing is an important activity in Coffin Bay. The majority of fishers targeted King George whiting (Sillaginodes punctata ), which accounted for over half the total catch. The average catch rate of King George whiting per angler hour was 1.25 fish. Information was obtained on the value fishers place on recreational fishing. These data were included in a simple model of the fishery to evaluate the economic benefits of changing the current allocation of fish between commercial and recreational fishers. The analysis indicates that it may be desirable to reduce recreational fishing and increase commercial fishing in Coffin Bay. Further research is required to verify this finding.

AN - 16412222; 2892250 AB - We describe relationships between atmospheric CO sub(2) concentration variations and CO sub(2) source-sink distributions, at two important scales between the single plant and the whole earth: the vegetation canopy and the atmospheric planetary boundary layer. For both these scales, it is shown how knowledge of turbulence and scalar dispersion can be applied to infer CO sub(2) source-sink distributions of fluxes from concentration measurements. At the canopy scale, the turbulent transfer of CO sub(2) and other scalars is non-diffusive close to any point source or sink in the canopy, but diffusive at greater distances. This distinction leads to a physically tenable description of turbulent transfer, and thence to an "inverse method" for finding the vertical profiles of sources and sinks in the canopy from measured concentration profiles. The method is tested with data from a wheat crop. At the scale of the planetary boundary layer, we consider the daily CO sub(2) concentration drawdown (the depression of the near-surface CO sub(2) concentration below the free-atmosphere value) of typically 20-40 ppm.

AN - 16412162; 2892302 AB - A literature survey of the interactive effects of CO sub(2) enrichment and temperature on plant development and growth, indicated that the responses cannot be interpreted within a simple framework. For example, although plant development is generally accelerated by increased temperature, CO sub(2) enrichment can accelerate it even further in some instances, or CO sub(2) enrichment may have neutral or even retarding effects in other cases. Where the temperature and CO sub(2) effects are additive, it is argued that CO sub(2) is operating in the same way as radiation to reduce a carbon limitation. If this were true, CO sub(2) enrichment would be most likely to accelerate development in tropical regions during the low-radiation monsoon season. Similarly, while it would be expected that CO sub(2)-enrichment would have increasingly enhancing effects with increasing temperature on phytomass growth, this is not invariably the case. In extreme examples which followed the expected trend, plants grown in twice-normal CO sub(2)-enriched atmospheres performed progressively better than those grown at current levels of CO sub(2) by 8.7% for every 1 degree C rise in temperature.

AN - 16411888; 2891273 AB - People working in the environmental field may refer to themselves as environmentalists, but this does not indicate how they approach their work. The term "environmental integrator" has been used to describe people who are specialists with breadth, in comparison to generalists with no speciality. The training of integrators involves the integration of knowledge with the teaching of problem solving and ways of dealing with people and complex organisations. A recent evaluation of the Master of Environmental Science programme at Monash University, which has an interdisciplinary focus, provided an opportunity to see if the training of environmental integrators was feasible. A questionnaire survey of graduates, and interviews with a sample of their employers, indicated that the majority of graduates worked as integrators, and valued the broad perspectives and integrative team work opportunities gained through the programme. While it is difficult to define and measure the qualities of integrators, it is apparent that the Monash programme contributed to the training of such people, and that other tertiary programmes could do likewise.

AN - 16410116; 2891611 AB - This review explores effects of elevated CO sub(2) concentrations on growth in relation to water use and salt balance of halophytic and non-halophytic species. Under saline conditions, the uptake and distribution of sodium and chloride must be regulated to protect sensitive metabolic sites from salt toxicity. Salt-tolerant species exclude most of the salt from the transpiration stream, but the salt flux from a highly saline soil is still considerable. To maintain internal ion concentrations within physiologically acceptable levels, the salt influx to leaves must match the capacities of leaves for salt storage and/or salt export by either retranslocation or secretion from glands. Hence the balance between carbon gain and the expenditure of water in association with salt uptake is critical to leaf longevity under saline conditions. Indeed, one of the striking features of halophytic vegetation, such as mangroves, is the maintenance of high water use efficiencies coupled with relatively low rates of water loss and growth. These low evaporation rates are further reduced under elevated CO sub(2) conditions. JF - Australian Journal of Botany AU - Ball, M C AU - Munns, R AD - Ecosyst. Dyn., Res. Sch. Biol. Sci., Aust.

In an effort to improve on these results, 129 patients with biopsy-proven clinical Stage III non-small cell lung carcinoma from November 1982 through November 1987, were entered into two consecutive Phase II studies at Rush-Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center. Treatment in the first consisted of Cisplatin and 5-Fluorouracil infusion with concomitant split course radiation; in the second Etoposide was added. Severe toxicity was unusual. There were three treatment related deaths (2%). Radiation esophagitis and pneumonitis were only mild to moderate seen in less than 10% of the patients.

AN - 16405144; 2891647 AB - Plants growing on dry soils or on soils with high mechanical resistance to root penetration grow more slowly and exhibit lower stomatal conductance than those growing on moist and loose soils. In most situations in nature where edaphic stresses develop rather slowly (compared to stresses imposed in most pot experiments conducted under controlled conditions), photosynthesis is mainly reduced via stomatal effects rather than via changes in mesophyll capacity for photosynthesis. Elevated CO sub(2) will induce an increase in the internal partial pressure of CO sub(2), despite stomatal conductance being lowered even further. Photosynthesis will therefore be improved, and leaf turgor will be increased. It is widely thought that growth on dry or hard soils is not carbon limited because levels of soluble carbohydrates in the leaves and root cells are increased. It is shown in this paper that growth on soil with high mechanical resistance does respond to elevated CO sub(2). JF - Australian Journal of Botany AU - Masle, J AD - Plant Environ. Biol. Group, Res.

Muell. in young plantations is described. Two separate artificial defoliation trials were set up to provide data to calibrate and test the model. The treatments involved combinations of different defoliation levels and timing with and without a repeat of these treatments in the following year as well as a treatment involving regular removal of refoliating shoots (disbudding). The effect of disbudding was found to be a greater on growth than was low levels of defoliation. The model gave an adequate fit to the data, but not all combinations of treatments were available to calibrate and test the model. A small simulation study employing the model to investigate the effect of defoliation and disbudding on plantation economics indicated a potentially high benefit to cost ratio for control of C. bimaculata , especially where refoliating shoots were grazed.

AN - 16388516; 2865426 AB - Gravity, moisture availability and shade exert a major control over the distributions of vascular plant species on sandstone cliffs in the Great Western Tiers, northern Tasmania. The vegetation is dominated by ferns, some of which are almost always restricted to cliffs, with invasion of shrub and tree species where soil has been able to accumulate. Although it might be expected that species commonly found over a wide range of vegetation types could displace obligate cliff dwellers, this potential is rarely fulfilled. The vertical nature of the environment precludes the loss of cliff obligates, as soil-vegetation mats peel off in part of a truncated and cyclic successional process.

AN - 16380551; 2877368 AB - The problem of poor nutrition in low-income groups has long been acknowledged, but less recognition is shown of the extent to which low income acts as a restraint on compliance with the dietary guidelines. The food supply of low-income areas does not necessarily offer the same "healthy" choices as more affluent suburbs. "Healthy" choices often cost more, and therefore may not be realizable for people on low incomes. JF - Food Australia. Sydney AU - Santich, B AD - Sch. Commun. Med., Univ.

AN - 16376610; 2862817 AB - The application of basic tools for the management of urban air quality is illustrated for Canberra, Australia. Pollutants examined are carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, total suspended particulates and fine particles. The calibration of generalised box models requiring only windspeed inputs and pollutant measurements is used to help quantify the relative strengths of the source types. The box models can also be combined with other source quantification techniques such as the construction of emission models for historical or projected traffic patterns. By adopting reasonable assumptions, it is shown that parametric probably functions can be fitted to annual or seasonal frequency distributions of pollutant data. These are used to infer underlying trends when observation periods contain uniformly or randomly missing measurements.

While some elements of variation in vegetation structure and overstorey species composition have clear edaphic relationships, many common tree species could be found as important overstorey components in a range of edaphic situations. The interaction of stochastic disturbance events and phenological condition may explain this deviation from environmental determinism.

Comparisons were conducted using published data to determine whether the distributions of 2,3,7,8-substituted isomers in surficial sediments from industrialized waterways have similar or different fingerprint patterns. Chemometric evaluations consisted of principal components analysis and the complete linkage: farthest neighbor cluster method. It was evident from this analysis that the application of chemometric analysis can be useful in characterizing the distribution of complex multi-constituent chemical residues and identifying sources of these compounds in freshwater, estuarine, and marine sediments.

The variants yielded identical profiles on restriction endonuclease analysis of plasmid DNA and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of whole-cell DNA. This report suggests a possible role for phenotypic variation in coagulase-negative staphylococcal virulence. Congo red agar would be an excellent medium for studying the contribution of variation to the virulence of these organisms.

AN - 16338689; 2840451 AB - The nucleotide sequence has been determined for the gene designated tcpN, encoding a putative regulatory protein within the tcp gene cluster associated with the biosynthesis and assembly of the toxin-coregulated pilus of Vibrio cholerae . It is preceded by a powerful transcriptional terminator which presumably delimits the major tcp operon, but at its 3' end is translationally coupled to the gene, tcpJ, encoding the TCP pilin signal peptidase. The tcpN gene encodes a putative 276-residue protein of 31 890 Da. This TcpN shows a high degree of homology to the transcriptional activators, Rns, associated with pilus biosynthesis in enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli , and to VirF, which controls the Yersinia virulence regulon.

Analysis of the phenotype of the Salmonella -primed T cells which responded when cultured with PC from either normal or infected mice and Salmonella -antigen showed that only L3T4 super(+) T cells proliferated. Further characterization of these peritoneal cells revealed that they also inhibited the induction of in vitro T-cell responses to alloantigens. It is likely that the cells mediating these inhibitory effects belonged to a macrophage-like subset. JF - Immunology AU - Pope, M AU - Kotlarski, I AD - Dep. Microbiol. and Immunol., Univ.

Incident cases of work-related hand injuries were characterized to evaluate that process. In 1988, hand and finger injuries were found to be among the most common (n = 4,120) of all occupational injuries recorded in the system. Hand/finger injuries accounted for 30.0 percent of all episodes of work-related injuries treated, with the incidence of these decreasing with increasing company size. Hand injuries were found to be potentially severe with nearly 20 percent resulting from a crushing motion and nearly 10 percent being fractures or amputations. Hands being caught in machines or struck by metal items or hand tools accounted for 36.2 percent of the injuries. JF - J. COMMUN. HEALTH. AU - Oleske, D M AU - Hahn, J J AD - Dep. Health Syst.

The community of epiphytes occupied 14 species of host tree. While certain species of host tree tended to accommodate more epiphytes than others, no host tree specificity was exhibited by any of the epiphyte species. There was some evidence of canopy partitioning by branch size among the more common epiphytes (8 species with > 10 individuals in the sample area). Four species of Tillandsia) (Bromeliaceae) tended to occupy the smallest diameter supports (mostly 2.5 cm. However, within these two groups, and particularly among the orchids, support diameter preferences were remarkably similar. JF - Biotropica AU - Zimmerman, J K AU - Olmsted, I C AD - Terr. Ecol.

AN - 16304813; 2817484 AB - The orchid Tipularia discolor possesses two to five subterranean corms containing a high concentration of total non-structural carbohydrates (TNC). We investigated the role of corms in the initiation of new growth following seasonal dormancy, in reproduction, and in the response of plants to artificial defoliation. Severance of older corms (representing c. 30% of total corm biomass) influenced new shoot initiation, but had little or no effect on plants during fruit production or in their response to defoliation. Shading of plants during growth initiation had no detectable impact on shoot growth or storage use. Growth initiation caused a reduction in corm mass but no change in per cent TNC in corms. Reproduction was associated with reductions in both corm mass and per cent TNC. Artificial defoliation had little impact on the utilization of existing carbohydrate stores.

A study was carried out in five ponds in Dhaka city over a period of one year to investigate the distribution and seasonality of these organisms in various components of pond ecosystems. Samples were collected from plants, water, phytoplankton and sediment every 15 days over 12 months and cultured for Aeromonas spp. using enrichment techniques. A. sobria, A. hydrophila and A. caviae were isolated from 199 (41.46%), 29 (6.04%) and 21 (4.38%) of the 480 samples, respectively. Two distinct peaks of A. sobria were observed in all components; one during the warmer months of May-July and the other at the beginning of winter in November. Aeromonas spp. were isolated from all components from all ponds during the study period. This study gives some insight into the epidemiology of diarrhoea due to Aeromonas spp. in Bangladesh.

Mated, male Tree Swallows were removed from territories to simulate the lack of male parental care that would be incurred by secondary females. Removals took place in lakeshore and roadside habitats in central Alberta, Canada. Insect sampling over three breeding seasons indicated that the lakeshore had greater biomass of insects than the roadside during egg laying, but there was no difference during the nestling period. Both our male removal experiment and natural cases of polygyny suggested that loss of male parental care had little effect on reproductive success or survival of females or their offspring. Unaided females increased their per-capita nest-visit rate in two of three years, so the rate of visitation per nestling did not differ significantly between unaided females and both the male and female at control nests.

AN - 16291443; 2814245 AB - Observations on eight pairs of Pied Oystercatchers Haematopus ostralegus longirostris at Mortimer Bay provide information on breeding success and adult survival. The species is long-lived but the low annual adult mortality is offset by low breeding success. Compared with other populations, the Australian race is characterised by a relatively small clutch size, a long incubation period, a long interval between hatching and flying and a very high age at first breeding. I suggest that breeding territories are at a premium, and that many sites are only marginal. JF - Emu AU - Newman, M AD - Pasminco Metals-EZ, G.P.O.

At a loading rate of 1 kg/liter/min and a feeding rate of 1.5% body weight/day with 22% protein commercial pellets, the daily weight gains were in the order of 0.77, 0.65 and 0.64 g/fish in the low, medium and high stocking densities, respectively, with corresponding net yields of 27.01, 40.98 and 57.37 g/m super(3) day. The FCR values were 2.25, 2.57 and 2.61 in the low, medium and high stocking densities, respectively. Behavioral studies indicated that the growth-inhibiting agonistic behavioral patterns were generally unabated even at the highest stocking density. JF - Aquacultural engineering.

AN - 16290015; 2817731 AB - The woody fruits of 21 species belonging to four different subgeneric groups in Eucalyptus held contents which consisted of "particles" that were either fertile or sterile, i.e. "seeds" or "ovulodes" respectively. The biggest fruits were 9 times wider than the smallest and more than 200 times heavier. Mean numbers of particles per fruit varied from 49 to 953; mean numbers of seeds per fruit varied from 0.8 to 108. Rising trends against mean oven-dry wall weight of fruits (i.e. fruits minus contents) were found for mean numbers of particles per fruit, mean particle weight and total weight to fruit contents. Using oven-dry weights of components as an index of the energetic costs of their production, costs per particle rose as fruit weights increased. Costs per seed rose to a maximum for fruits up to a dry weight of nearly 10 g but the four largest-fruited species had a relatively low cost for seeds per unit of wall weight.

AN - 16289788; 2805910 AB - Temporal changes in coarse (> 1 mm), fine ( 250 mu m), and woody benthic organic matter (BOM), and densities of detritivores in pools and riffles were monitored at three sites on two intermittent streams (Werribee and Lerderderg Rivers) in Victoria, Australia during a drought year followed by a wetter year. Standing stocks of BOM peaked in both habitats during summer when discharge ceased and eucalypt leaf fall was greatest. During high winter and spring discharges, concentrations of BOM were low. Floods did not always scour BOM from the pools and riffles; after floods in October, standing stocks rose when BOM was imported from upstream or mobilized from the riparian zone. Densities of benthic detritivores, collector-gatherers, and shredders also varied seasonally, usually peaking in summer. Correlations between detritivore feeding group densities densities and amounts of putative food resource were habitat-specific. Detritivore densities in riffles, especially in the Lerderderg River, were strongly positively correlated with the amounts of BOM. JF - Hydrobiologia AU - Boulton, A J AU - Lake, P S AD - Dep.

AN - 16283481; 2805317 AB - The paper attempts to juxtapose the theoretical debate on sustainability and the practical issues pertaining to two well-known environmental movements in the Indian Himalayan region of Tehri-Garhwal. A brief review of the current debate on sustainable development is followed by a search for the reasons behind the growth of consciousness about sustainability in the forest protection movement called Chipko and a movement against a high dam at Tehri. While the presence of indigenous consciousness of sustainability at micro-levels is undeniable, the success of these movements in generating it at the macro level is linked with the leadership's capability to extract supporting arguments in their favor, from modern ecological sciences.

AN - 16277991; 2798241 AB - The long-nosed potoroo (Potorous tridactylus ), a medium-sized, ground-dwelling marsupial, inhabits the foothills and coastal forests of southeastern mainland Australia. Faecal analysis confirmed the mycophagous habit of P. tridactylus at a eucalypt forest site in East Gippsland, Victoria; in one month, the spores of 33 different fungi were identified. The majority of species (27) were hypogeal or subhypogeal gasteromycetes that form ectomycorrhizae with forest trees and shrubs, and included the widespread and common Mesophellia pachythrix . The possible role of mycophagy in establishment of eucalypt-fungal mycorrhizae was investigated in several ways. Fungal spores were viable after passage through the gut of P. tridactylus ; application of spore-bearing faeces to seedlings of Eucalyptus sieberi and Eucalyptus globoidea grown in sterile soil produced ectomycorrhizae. Spores of M. pachythrix were among the most common spores in these faeces and some of the resulting ectomycorrhizae were of the type expected from M. pachythrix . In contrast, direct application of M. pachythrix spores from sporocarp tissue to seedlings produced no ectomycorrhizae. JF - Australian journal of ecology.

AN - 16277813; 2806372 AB - Nine successive 5-month experiments, which examined relationships between fertilization strategies (with chicken manure, triple superphosphate and urea), water quality and yields of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus ), took place from February 1985 through March 1990 in 16 earthen ponds at the Ayutthaya Freshwater Fisheries Center, Bang Sai, Thailand. Over the course of these experiments, randomization of treatments resulted in all ponds having different fertilization histories. Analysis of covariance was used to quantify the carry-over effects of nutrient inputs from earlier experiments on experimental errors in Experiment 9. Reasons for the positive effect of earlier experiments on net fish yield (NFY) most likely involved the inverse relationship between the ability of pond sediments to remove soluble phosphorus from overlying water, and the accumulation of organic matter and phosphorus on pond bottoms. Pond management considerations and recommendations for fish culture experiments are given to better account for between-pond variability due to different fertilization histories.

The authors examined the associations of pulmonary and nasal symptoms, wood dust exposure, and lifestyle variables (cigarette smoking, alcohol use, overweight, physical inactivity, and stress) in a sample of 168 woodworkers. Levels of wood dust exposure were not systematically associated with symptoms.

AN - 16271848; 2802532 AB - The authors examined the effects of smoking and alcohol use in a prospective community-based study of incident Alzheimer's disease. Two in-home interviews of the total elderly population of East Boston, Massachusetts, conducted in 1982 and 1985 were used to sample individuals for clinical evaluation for Alzheimer's disease. A total of 513 persons underwent detailed clinical evaluation including neurologic, neuropsychologic, and psychiatric evaluation to diagnose Alzheimer's disease. The results suggest that recent mild-to-moderate consumption of alcohol is not substantially related to incidence of Alzheimer's disease and that smoking does not increase risk of the disease.

AN - 16270341; 2792316 AB - Mangroves often grow in poorly flushed intertidal muds. When their roots extract water from these muds, they exclude almost all of the salt, so the solution becomes concentrated. We argue, using a theoretical analysis, that the salt will concentrate until a quasi-steady state is attained, in which the flow of salt into the soil by convection in the water travelling to the roots is matched by diffusion of the concentrated salt back to the soil surface. Two ecological implications of our analysis are that mangroves may be adapted to low transpiration rates despite their growing with an apparently unlimited water supply, and that they may be unable to sustain initially vigorous growth after colonizing freshly deposited muds.

AN - 16247185; 2783794 AB - Diatom and dinoflagellate species that are not endemic to a region can be inadvertently introduced when their resistant resting stages are discharged with the ballast-tank waters and sediments of bulk cargo vessels. A survey of 343 cargo vessels entering 18 Australian ports showed that 65% of ships were carrying significant amounts of sediment on the bottom of their ballast tanks. All of these samples contained diatoms, including species that are not endemic to Australian waters. Diatom resting spores, especially of Chaetoceros , were also detected. Dinoflagellate resting spores (cysts) were present in 50% of the sediment samples. Of considerable concern was the detection in 16 ships of cysts of the toxic dinoflagellates Alexandrium catenella, Alexandrium tamarense and Gymnodinium catenatum . One single ballast tank was estimated to contain > 300 million viable A. tamarense cysts, some of which were successfully germinated in the laboratory to produce toxic cultures. Ballast-water quarantine measures recently introduced in Australia are discussed. Mid-ocean exchange of ballast water is only partially effective in removing dinoflagellate cysts which have settled to the bottom of ballast tanks.

AN - 16240014; 2767182 AB - Landhoppers were sampled by hand, pitfall and tree trunk traps on a 500 m altitudinal transect in the Ko'olau Range, O'ahu, in the Hawaiian Islands. Five species were present. The circumtropical tramp Talitroides topitotum was abundant in ground litter from 300 m (above sea level) to the summit of the ridge (800 m). Although common in damp situations nearer sea level, the other introduced species, T. alluaudi , was rare on the transect. Of the native species, Hawaiorchestia gagnei was found from 320 m to the summit of the ridge in ground litter, and in moss and leaf axils well above ground. Platorchestia lanipo was not found below 440 m, and was also found on the ground, in axils and perched moss. The native species appear to use above-ground habitats extensively, this may be a characteristic of the native species, evolved in response to the unsuitability of the ground litter, or it may be that the relatively recent invasion of T. topitotum has driven native species from the ground habitats.

AN - 16239834; 2770834 AB - The spatial patterns of tree stems in 480 plots were examined on a series of ten experimental oldfields adjacent to an old growth forest over a 31-year period. Tree stem density decreased exponentially with distance from the forest edge early in succession. Later in succession the predictive power of the negative exponential model decreased, suggesting that processes such as animal seed dispersal within a field become important. Species palatable to herbivores were denser than unpalatable species close to the forest edge which implies that consumer pressure originates in the field rather than in the forest. Stems of all species were clumped on the scale of the 1 m super(2) plots. However, stems of bird-dispersed species showed the highest degree of clumping as expected if perches serve as recruitment foci. Results suggest that spatial patterns of tree seedlings in oldfields are significantly influenced by successional age, herbivory, dispersal vector and proximity to forest edge. JF - BULL. TORREY BOT.

AN - 16236373; 2777168 AB - In the Murray Basin in southeastern Australia, saline waste irrigation waters are often discharged to natural depressions and saline lakes as a salinity and land management strategy. At the Noora disposal basin in South Australia the waste irrigation water (EC = 17-19 dS m super(-1)) has formed a lens in the top of the highly saline (50-80 dS m super(-1)) regional groundwater (Parilla Sands) aquifer. Using salinity and environmental isotopes of water (deuterium and oxygen-18) the lens has been shown to extend about 500 m in a northwesterly direction from the disposal pond. The major effects of this lens have been: (1) to cause upwards displacement of the regional ground water over an area of about 285 km super(2), implying increased evaporation from areas surrounding the lens; (2) to reduce evaporation of regional ground water from the central low-lying area.

Oligonucleotide primers were chosen to amplify a 3' region of L. monocytogenes hlyA gene spanning a conserved HindIII site. PCR detection sensitivity for L. monocytogenes in dilutions of pure enrichment cultures was between 50 and 500 colony forming units. A short enrichment period before PCR amplification allowed detection of the organisms in a range of complex foods contaminated with 10 super(4) cfu/g. Detection sensitivity for the assay in the presence of chicken skin and soft cheese was determined at 10-100 cfu/g.

AN - 16229941; 2764796 AB - The pattern of significant associations between plants was examined in ten old fields during 31 years of succession by calculating rank correlations for species pairs in each old field during each sample year. Three hypotheses were tested concerning the dynamics of species interactions through succession, and correspondence was explored between the pattern of association and published results from field and grasshouse experiments. The proportion, number and level of significance of associations between plants all declined with time. Annuals and biennials had a higher portion of significant associations and more positive associations than perennial species. Plant species involved in many significant associations and implicated as actively interacting with other species were generally neither native nor the most abundant.

Impacts of increasing per capita consumption. AN - 16220029; 2747335 AB - For the first time in 4000 million years of life on Earth a single species, Homo sapiens is causing progressive ecological disturbances. These changes are the outcome of the human aptitude for culture, especially as this aptitude has recently found expression in the Western World. They are associated with the fact that humans are using about 12,000 times as much energy, mainly in the form of fossil fuels, as they were 400 generations ago when farming was first introduced. Nearly 80% of this energy use and technological waste production is taking place in the industrialized nations, which make up around 25% of the total human population. If the biosphere is to survive as a system capable of supporting humankind, humans must apply their aptitude for culture to working out new societal arrangements which are sensitive to the health needs both of the ecosystems of the biosphere and of human populations.

III. Temporal changes in faunal composition. AN - 16216623; 2756717 AB - Temporal changes in species richness, total abundance, and numbers of individuals in seven functional feeding groups were compared between pools and riffles at four sites on two intermittent streams in Victoria sampled during a drought year followed by a wetter year. Species richness increased steadily over time, peaking in the riffles just before flow ceased. Maximum species richness occurred in the pools shortly after flow stopped, implying emigration from the drying riffles. Several floods in spring significantly reduced species richness and total numbers of individuals but recovery to pre-flood levels was generally complete within 2 weeks. Although floods had little effect upon succession, as indicated by trajectories in ordination space, the dry period interrupted otherwise cyclical sequences, consistently resulting in arch-shaped trajectories. A group of early colonists or "pioneer" species was replaced after several weeks by heterogeneous groups of "mid-successional" taxa responsible for differences in faunal composition between riffles and pools. We suggest that the cyclical temporal changes in assemblage composition observed in this study represent "seasonal periodicity", whereas recovery after unpredictable disturbances such as floods that temporarily disrupt the cycle fits the definition of "succession".

TT - II. Comparisons of faunal composition between habitats, rivers and years AN - 16215651; 2754805 AB - We compared aquatic macroinvertebrate assemblage composition within and between habitats (pools and riffles) at four sites on two intermittent streams in Victoria, Australia during a drought year followed by a wetter year to see how different spatial and temporal scales influenced patterns of community structure detected by multivariate techniques of ordination and classification. Pools contained more taxa and individuals than riffles. At the more temporary site, there was considerable overlap between the faunal composition of pools and riffles, whereas habitat-specific assemblages consistently occurred at the more permanent sites. Most taxa were either tolerant, permanent stream forms able to persist in streams that dry briefly, or facultative species that occur in lotic or lentic habitats. Few species appeared specifically adapted to temporary waters. Within habitats, there were some matches between faunal groups and flow phases, especially with the onset of the 'diminishing flow' phase, characterized by rising water temperature and conductivity, and declining pH and dissolved oxygen. However, disjunctions among faunal groups were less marked than those between flow phases, and were absent at an intermediate scale when habitats were pooled within sites. JF - Freshwater biology.

AN - 16209970; 2734831 AB - Recently, Moller (1990) examined why the breeding territories of birds vary in size during the nesting cycle. Using data from both his own field studies and the literature, Moller found that territories were largest during the nest-building and egg-laying periods of the female (i.e. her fertile period). After examining several alternative hypotheses, Moller concluded that the risk of intrusions and copulations by other males was an important selective force acting on the size of avian breeding territories. Presumably, larger territories increase the distance between intruding males and fertile females and, therefore, reduce the probability that intruders will gain extra-pair fertilizations (the risk of cuckoldry hypothesis). In this note I suggest that the predictions of Moller's (1990) hypotheses are not exclusive, and his results support at least two alternative hypotheses. JF - Animal Behaviour AU - Dunn, PO AD - Div.

AN - 16202844; 2729628 AB - Eucalyptus paliformis is restricted to seven small populations within an area of <5 km super(2) on the Wadbilliga Plateau of south-eastern NSW. It occurs as a dominant tree in habitats superficially similar to those of the more widespread E. fraxinoides), which dominates forests immediately adjacent to the E. paliformis populations. This study examined factors which may influence the replacement of E. fraxinoides by E. paliformis , and similarly, factors which exclude E. paliformis from sites dominated by E. fraxinoides . Seedling growth and competition experiments indicated that E. fraxinoides outcompetes E. paliformis under unburnt field conditions, on field soils, under high and low moisture regimes, under high light and high nutrient conditions, and under a range of temperature regimes.

AN - 16202222; 2729778 AB - The Australian Brush-turkey, Alectura lathami constructs incubation mounds of decomposing forest litter in which many large eggs are incubated by microbial heat generation. On Kangaroo Island, the average mound is about 12.7 m super(3) and weighs about 6,800 kg. It maintains an incubation temperature of 33 degree C in an average ambient air temperature of 18 degree C. When eggs are in the mound, the rate of heat production is estimated to be about 100 Watts, a value more than 20 times the heat production of the resting adult. Thus, the mound can incubate many more eggs than would be possible in a normal nest. A numerical computer model, incorporating experimental data on mound size, ambient temperature, and the mound material's rate of heat production, water content, dry density, and thermal conductivity, predicts that as little as 1 cm of litter added to the mound will raise core temperature about 1.5 degree C. Experimental manipulation of artificial and natural mounds uphold the model and indicate that functional mounds require (1) a critical mass of fresh litter (ca. 3,000 kg), (2) sufficient water content (>0.2 ml/g dry material), and (3) occasional mixing of the litter.

AN - 16187856; 2729601 AB - In many populations of birds there is a seasonal change in the mean mass of eggs in the clutch. This might be caused by seasonal changes in the costs of egg-production, or changes in the benefits of laying eggs of different size. In the Blackbird Turdus merula the mean mass of an egg correlated specifically with the air temperature during the period when it was predicted to be undergoing rapid follicular growth. There was no residual effect of date or day-length on egg-mass when statistically controlling for temperature during the period of rapid yolk synthesis, yet temperature still had a significant effect when controlling for date or day-length. Thus the seasonal increase in egg-mass appears to be due to changes in the cost of egg-production, not changes in the benefits of laying larger eggs. However, I could find no effect of food supply during laying on the mean mass of eggs in the clutch, either using an indirect measure of food availability, rainfall, or in a food-supplementation experiment. This could be because females responded to extra food by laying earlier, and probably larger, clutches, rather than by increasing egg-mass. JF - Ibis AU - Magrath, R D AD - Div.

AN - 16170735; 2712015 AB - The production of allergens from cDNA clones will provide a clonally pure source of material for experimental and perhaps clinical studies. Attempts to produce the major mite allergen, Der p I, in a highly antigenic form in bacteria have, to date, had limited success. In this study, a high level of production of Der p I from a Cup1 gene cassette from pYELC5-13T in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is described. An amount equivalent to about 1 mg/L of yeast culture could be isolated by affinity chromatography with an immobilized monoclonal antibody. This product reacted strongly with IgE in 9/11 sera from mite-allergic patients compared to the 50% reactivity achieved for Der p I previously produced as a fusion by bacteria. Similarly, the intensity of binding and ability to absorb out Der p I specificities were much greater for the yeast, pYELC5-13T, product. The high frequency of reactivity with IgE of the pYELC5-13T formally demonstrates that a single gene product of Der p I is a major allergen.

AN - 16113243; 2670816 AB - A possible predatory interaction was identified between two intertidal seastars, Patiriella exigua and P. calcar . This interaction may also have been a factor limiting the lower distribution of P. exigua at the study site. Predation was observed in the field and laboratory. Significantly fewer P. exigua remained in cages containing P. calcar compared to those containing low or high densities of P. exigua. P. exigua showed a strong escape response upon contacting P. calcar but none was elicited by other common intertidal species. There was an inverse relationship between the numbers of P. calcar and P. exigua in the same rockpool, but competition for food or space was not suggested by field surveys. Experimental work showed that P. exigua was able to survive in the low intertidal zone at the site of sympatry and occurred naturally in this zone at an allopatric site.

AN - 16087655; 2654191 AB - Serratia entomophila UC9 (A1MO2), which causes amber disease in the New Zealand grass grub Costelytra zealandica , was subjected to transposon (TnphoA)-induced mutagenesis. A mutant (UC21) was found to be nonpathogenic (Path super(-)) to grass grub larvae in bioassays and was shown, by Southern hybridization, to contain a single TnphoA insertion. This mutant failed to adhere to the gut wall (Adn super(-)) of the larvae and also failed to produce pili (Pil super(-)). A comparative study of the total protein profiles of wild-type S. entomophila) UC9 and mutant UC21 revealed that the mutant lacked an similar to 44-kDa protein and overexpressed an similar to 20-kDa protein. The 44-kDa gene product was not detected in E. coli minicells containing the cloned mutant fragment. Saturation mutagenesis of this fragment produced four unlinked insertional mutations with active fusions to TnphoA. We propose that these are the products of structural and/or regulatory genes involved in adhesion and/or piliation which are prerequisites in the S. entomophila -grass grub interaction leading to amber disease.

Fiesta Bowl officials had announced scholarship contributions of $100,000 to each of the schools fielding a team in the annual college football game. OCR has interpreted the law to prohibit race-exclusive scholarships such as those which had been proposed by Fiesta Bowl officials because regulations prohibit recipients of Department of Education funds from denying, restricting, or providing different or segregated financial aid or other program benefits on the basis of race, color or national origin. After a brief opening statement by Committee Chairman Augustus F. Hawkins, witnesses testified representing such institutions as: American Council on Education, National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities, the United Negro College Fund, National Association for Equal Opportunity in Higher Education, United States Student Association, National Council of Persons. Included are prepared statements of the witnesses, correspondence relating to the OCR Fiesta Bowl announcement and the hearing, and the prepared statements of a few witnesses who did not testify in person. An extensive appendix includes a chronology of OCR documents relating to race-exclusive scholarships; and 29 newspaper, journal and magazine articles.

AN - 62935785; ED343319 AB - This paper examines issues concerning the eligibility of children with attention deficit disorder (ADD) for special education and related services under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). A policy memorandum was issued by the Department of Education in September 1991, identifying those circumstances under which such children are eligible for special services. Such children are seen to qualify under IDEA's "other health impairments" category if ADD is a chronic or acute health problem that limits alertness, adversely affects educational performance, and requires special education. They may also qualify under other IDEA disability categories or under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The policy interpretation memorandum was issued after reviewing public comments required under the Education of the Handicapped Act Amendments (1990) and is intended to clarify for states and local school districts their responsiblities under federal law toward children with ADD. Currently at issue is implementation of the Department's ADD policy and further consideration by Congress of eligibility of children with ADD under IDEA. An appendix summarizes the history, causes, prevalence, diagnosis, treatment, and educational implications of ADD. (Includes 53 bibliographic footnotes.) (DB) AU - Aleman, Steven R.

Eighth Report by the Committee on Government Operations, Together with Dissenting Views, 102d Congress, 1st Session. AN - 62930718; ED340318 AB - This is the eighth report by the Committee on Government Operations in the aftermath of the U.S. Department of Education's (DOE's) December 1990 attempt to ban race-specific scholarships, now called the Fiesta Bowl Fiasco. Based on a study by the Human Resources and Intergovernmental Relations Subcommittee, this report finds the following: (1) race-specific scholarships are legal when used in conjunction with voluntary or involuntary affirmative action as encouraged and affirmed by the Congress and the judiciary; (2) the December 1990 ban on race-specific scholarships was drafted secretly, without the opportunity for public comment, in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act; (3) despite the dubious legal basis of the ban on race-specific scholarships, the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) has begun investigations of schools that use race-specific financial aid in their affirmative action programs. The report recommends that DOE should continue to uphold the legality of race-specific scholarships as an affirmative action tool and that OCR should develop an initiative aimed at stronger enforcement. Included are two dissenting views, one submitted by Representatives Craig Thomas, Frank Horton, and Al McCandless and the other by Representative William H.

Private schools are described according to a nine-category typology recently developed by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). Data were collected through the 1987-88 Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS) developed by the NCES and conducted by the Department of the Census. Highlights of the survey include the following data: (1) the reported average salary for private school administrators was $20,206, compared to $41,924 for public school administrators; (2) about one-half of all private school administrators reported having some difficulty in filling teacher vacancies; (3) despite the salary differentials, close to one-third of the private school teachers reported that they would become a teacher again; and (4) teachers in private schools report a stronger sense of a shared school mission. The SASS consists of seven questionnaires, which are described along with other technical considerations in a methods section that follows the tables. The private school sample consisted of 3,513 schools, for which the survey responses of 3,513 principals and 11,529 teachers were analyzed. Sixty-five tables of data are provided.

AN - 62931863; ED341697 AB - This edition, 21st in a series, provides revisions of projections shown in the preceding volume and includes statistics on elementary and secondary schools and institutions of higher learning at the national level. Data include projections for enrollment, graduates, instructional staff, and expenditures to the year 2002. Selected projections are also given for the state level. This edition also includes a section on new developments in projecting education statistics that includes enrollment projections by race and ethnicity. A methodology section describes the ways that projections are made and the models used. Most projections include three or four alternatives based on different assumptions about growth. Public and private school enrollments are projected to increase in the period, passing the 1971 peak, with a reversal in the recent decline in secondary school enrollments. While enrollment in higher education is expected to increase, the rate of growth is expected to slow after 1990. Increases in the numbers of classroom teachers and in expenditures per pupil are also forecasted. State level K-12 public school enrollment and public high school graduates are expected to increase, but these increases will vary across the nation. Five technical appendices contain details about the projection methodology; and present supplementary tables, a table of mean absolute percentage errors, an outline of data sources, and a glossary. The text contains 100 figures and 46 tables, and the appendices contain an additional 34 tables. (SLD) AU - Gerald, Debra E. AU - Hussar, William J.

Here, the provision of resources, services, & companionship by these four sectors are analyzed, noting that in industrial societies, there is an explosion of care that places great pressure on the public sector, the voluntary sector, & the informal sector. Also examined are issues of capacity & willingness of the various major actors & delivery systems, hypothesizing that there is an inverse relationship between capacity & willingness. 1 Table, 4 References.

AN - 21354048; 7678249 AB - Increasing concentrations of CO2 and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere can be directly related to global warming. In terms of human health, because a major cause of increasing atmospheric concentrations of CO2 is the increased combustion of fossil fuels, global warming also may result in increases in air pollutants, acid deposition, and exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. To understand better the impacts of global warming phenomena on human health, this review emphasizes the processes that are responsible for the greenhouse effect, air pollution, acid deposition, and increased exposure to UV radiation.

The usefulness of the screw plate and pressuremeter tests were examined in relation to the ability to provide meaningful results for the prediction of the settlement behavior of test embankments. The compressibility of soft Bangkok (Thailand) clay preloaded with an instrumented test embankment was studied using the results of a series of in situ and laboratory tests. In the field, eight screw plate and eight pressuremeter tests were performed at four test levels in the subsoil. In the laboratory, twelve Rowe cell consolidation tests were carried out. The coefficient of consolidation was determined from the screw plate test. It was found that coefficient of consolidation values obtained from the Rowe cell consolidation tests were twelve times smaller compared to those derived from the screw plate tests. The soil parameters obtained from the two types of in situ tests were then used to predict the settlement behavior of the two test embankments, one improved by prefabricated vertical drains, and the other, on unimproved ground. The proper choice of the drained modulus values was difficult to determine, as the predicted settlement magnitudes using elastic theory can vary considerably for the ratio of drained and undrained soil moduli, ranging between 0.25 to 0.50. The undrained modulus from the screw plate test corresponding to the fitted data was found to be 1.38 times the undrained modulus from the pressuremeter test. General agreement with the observed settlement was found using a graphical procedure and adopting the coefficient of consolidation from the screw plate test.

These data are notable because they reveal that assay protocols, rodent strains, and technical methodologies have been consistent, allowing for comparisons between assays and chemicals. Information from in vitro assays, (such as Salmonella mutagenesis, Chinese hamster ovary cell, and mouse lymphoma cell mutagenesis), and in vivo assays, (such as Drosophilia mutagenesis, and rodent bone marrow) on over 1500 chemicals form the core of the data base. Together, these results provide an impressive information bank for evaluating chemical effects and for elucidating the relationships between mutagenicity and carcinogenicity.

The four components of this system-fact data base system, including BL-DB; data-modification module; rule-making support module; and expert knowledge-base module-are briefly described. The system was used to construct eight kinds of rules to predict results of Salmonella /microsome assay. It is concluded that the mutagenicity on Salmonella/microsome assay of aliphatic and heterocyclic compounds can be 90 to 95% accurately predicted by this method. Limitations and goals of the system are included.

Because of the seasonal distribution of O sub(3), the increase in biologically effective UV radiation has been minimal but is expected to increase. It is predicted that there will be increased cases of nonmelanoma skin cancer, malignant melanoma skin cancer, possible alterations to immune responses, and increased eye disease (i.e., cataracts) because of increased UV radiation. In addition to physiologic adaptation, changes in behavior, (i.e., using sunscreens and avoiding midday exposure), will probably have mitigating effects on increasing UV radiation.

The reasons for scientific alarm and some of the connections between these phenomena, and the effects they are likely to have on the planet are summarized. It is concluded that science alone cannot provide adequate solutions to these problems and that the field of inquiry must be widened to include the linkages between environment and society and the value changes that may become necessary to achieve sustainable development.

HCFCs under development include HCFC-22 (chlorodifluoromethane), HCFC-123 (2,2-dichloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane), HCFC-132b (1,2-dichloro-1,1-difluoroethane), HCFC-134a (1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane), HCFC-141b (1,1-dichloro-1-fluoroethane), and HCFC-142b (1-chloro-1,1-difluoroethane). Current knowledge and speculation about the metabolism and toxicity of these HCFCs is reviewed. In vivo toxicity studies on HCFCs are needed and that careful evaluation of these chemicals should not be compromised to allow for their early introduction into industry.

Cytogenetic methods have been developed for analyzing human chromosomes and for screening various mutagens for their effects. Three cytogenetic techniques (conventional or classic, harlequin, and micronucleus) are described, followed by outlines of seven cytogenetic studies conducted in Egypt. Problems in cytogenetic monitoring studies of populations that have been environmentally exposed to genotoxicants include analyzing differences in individual sensitivities, finding valid controls, evaluating confounding factors, determining the number of persons examined, ascertaining the real consequences of chromosomal damage, obtaining statistically significant results, and predicting future health effects.

Harmful effects of O sub(3) depletion include skin cancer, eye disease, and immunosuppression. It is believed that global warming will lead to increases in heat stress, vectorborne diseases, respiratory diseases, allergic conditions, pregnancy problems, malnutrition, shortages of water, and crowding. It is argued that a successful strategy to deal with these consequences must include a global view of the situation. Not only should potential harmful effects be studied individually, possible interactions among these phenomena must also be investigated. So far, this has not been done in the area of public health.

Although the toxicological data did not provide a strong basis for predicting that the pesticide is a human carcinogen, the epidemiological evidence did suggest that exposure to the herbicide was associated with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. When asked to categorize the herbicide as a carcinogen or as a noncarcinogen in humans, 11 panelists thought that exposure to 2,4-D could cause cancer.

AN - 62940950; ED341393 AB - This booklet was prepared in recognition of the 25th anniversary of the watershed Adult Education Act of 1966, and in acknowledgement of the key role that libraries have played in U.S. adult education throughout the century. Written by library educators, the two commissioned papers that make up the booklet describe the role of public libraries in adult education since 1900. In the first paper, "Beginnings: Public Libraries and Adult Education from 1900 to 1966," Margaret E. Monroe traces the development of literacy education in the context of library adult education from the beginning of the 20th century until 1966. In the second paper, "The Developing Role of Public Libraries in Adult Education: 1966 to 1991," Kathleen M. Heim reviews the contributions of libraries and librarians to literacy, lifelong learning, and adult education over the past 25 years. The booklet concludes with a list of 117 selected readings which relate to the theme of libraries and adult education. (MAB) AU - Monroe, Margaret E. AU - Heim, Kathleen M.

AN - 62935525; ED342470 AB - This report examines actions of the U.S. Office of Personnel Management in providing leadership to several of the government's human resource management programs in the work and family benefits area. It reviews employee benefit programs that help civilian federal workers balance their work responsibilities and personal needs. Programs reviewed are those in the areas of: (1) child care; (2) elder care; (3) alterative work schedules; (4) part-time employment and job sharing; (5) flexible workplaces, or "flexiplaces"; (6) leave sharing programs; and (7) flexible or "cafeteria" benefits plans. The role and responsibilities of federal agencies in implementing programs in each area are addressed. Also examined are ways in which the federal government can improve its status as a model employer in the work and family benefits area. The report concludes with several recommendations for improving the government's attractiveness as an employer in a reasonable, fiscally responsible manner. Appended are 99 endnotes, which include references, and a letter from the Director of the Office of Personnel Management with comments on the report.

AN - 62933176; ED338720 AB - National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) data for 9-, 13-, and 17-year-old students in the United States are provided, highlighting trends in science achievement from 1969-70 to 1990, mathematics achievement from 1973 to 1990, reading achievement from 1971 to 1990, and writing achievement from 1984 to 1990. Trends in academic proficiency for the nation and demographic subpopulations; trends in students' science and reading experiences and attitudes; patterns in school and home contexts for learning mathematics and reading; and trends in attitudes, behaviors, and instruction for writing are illustrated. Overall, the trends suggest few changes in educational achievement levels across the two decades covered by NAEP assessments. However, some declines in science and mathematics for 17-year-olds during the 1970s and generally low performance levels across several curriculum areas prompted reform efforts. Improvements occurred in science and mathematics during the 1980s at all three ages. Particularly for science, there is a pattern of decreased proficiency in the 1970s followed by recovery in the 1980s. Conversely, the reading results show that gains made by 9-year-olds in the 1970s eroded during the 1980s, while the performance of 13-year-olds remained constant. Writing achievement also showed some decline in the 1980s for eighth graders. Recent gains in mathematics and science achievement were partially offset by some losses in reading and writing. However, 17-year-olds improved their reading skills during the same period. Twenty-six figures and 64 data tables are provided. A procedural appendix summarizes procedures used in the 1990 trend assessments and provides 13 data tables. A data appendix provides 24 tables each showing science, mathematics, and reading trends; and 15 tables showing writing trends. (RLC) AU - Mullis, Ina V.

Chapter 1, an introduction to this two-part document, provides a summary of the contents of this volume as well as an outline of the series as a whole. Part 1 focuses on the background of adolescent health and provides a framework for viewing the lives and social environments of adolescents. The three individual chapters in this part examine respectively: adolescent development that may affect health, the delivery of health services, and public policy with respect to adolescents; the families of adolescents and models of parent-adolescent interaction; and school environments and discretionary time. Each of the 10 chapters in part 2 examines a specific health problem: accidental injuries; chronic physical illnesses; nutrition and fitness problems; dental and oral health problems; Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome and other sexually transmitted diseases; pregnancy and parenting; mental health problems; alcohol, tobacco, and drug abuse; delinquency; and homelessness. For each chapter, sections are included on: (1) limitations of existing sources of data on the health problem, the prevalence of the problem among adolescents, and differences in prevalence by selected sociodemographic and nondemographic characteristics; (2) information on the prevention and treatment of the problem; (3) relevant federal policies and programs; and (4) conclusions and policy implications. A separate index is included for Volumes I, II, and III of this "Adolescent Health" series.

Report from the Select Committee on Indian Affairs To Accompany S.1287. AN - 62929382; ED347028 AB - This report was submitted in support of an amendment to the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA) that will extend and expand the Self-Governance Demonstration Project. In late 1987, several Congressional committees investigated allegations of fraud and mismanagement in the administration of federal Indian programs. In response to charges of paternalism and ineffective bureaucracy, the Department of the Interior (without tribal consultation) proposed legislation to authorize block grant funding to tribes in return for a waiver of the federal trust responsibility. Several tribes proposed an alternative, the Self-Governance Demonstration Project, which became Title III of ISDEAA, and which reaffirmed the federal government's trust responsibility. Under the project, 20 participating tribes choose which Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) programs and activities they wish to administer themselves and receive the equivalent federal funds directly. The tribes are still eligible for direct services from programs they do not choose to manage. Funds from the Tribally Controlled Community College Assistance Act and Indian School Equalization formula cannot be included in the project. Since 1987, almost all progress in the project has been produced by participating tribes, with no support or cooperation from the BIA. Amendments to the project would extend it through 1996, expand the number of authorized participants to 30 tribes and Alaska village consortiums, increase funding, and make certain technical changes. A section-by-section analysis of the legislation is included.

The problems inherent in setting these limits, and in setting the permissible exposure limits set by OSHA, are described. TLVs are based on the best available information from diverse sources and have been set primarily for acute rather than chronic effects of toxicity. They are also set for average workplace environments, even though workers may suffer health problems at levels below TLVs. ACGIH also does not have a policy for dealing with complex chemical mixtures or with the fact that specific chemicals can elicit varying responses in individuals. The problem is exacerbated when the TLVs are applied to an office environment where air pollutant concentrations are significantly less but health symptoms persist.

The indoor air contamination can arise from biological sources, tobacco smoke, or VOCs associated with building materials and consumer products. Contributing causes of SBS can include inadequate ventilation systems or occupancy changes. Detection and remediation depends on adequate communication among all parties involved in building design, use, and maintenance.

These risks are tabulated, on the basis of the carcinogenic potencies of the chemicals and mean exposure of the subjects. Based on these outdoor concentrations measured near subjects' homes, the upper-bound lifetime cancer risks are apportioned between outdoor and indoor sources. Upper-bound vs. best-guess" estimates and the uncertainty involved in potency calcuations are discussed.

An important aspect of indoor air quality research is determining the contribution of these sources. A simple physical model is presented for assessing source contributions based on an indoor air quality study conducted in New York, NY. Gaseous pollutants, primarily from outdoor sources, can include sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, nitric acid, and ozone. Data are reported from recent simultaneous indoor and outdoor measurements in several homes in Boston, MA, to determine the indoor infiltration of gases from outdoor origin. Sulfur dioxide concentrations were lower indoors than outdoors, while indoor:outdoor ratios of nitric acid were higher than those for SO sub(2). Nitrogen dioxide concentrations were variable, depending on the use of gas ranges.

The methods include the inhalation reference concentrations, structure-activity relationships, dose-response models, and a decision analytic approach. The inhalation reference concentration is an estimate of daily exposure to humans that is likely to be without an appreciable risk of adverse effects over a lifetime. Structure-activity relationships can be used for hazard identification when inadequate data are available by identifying chemical analogues that have similar structural, metabolic, and toxic effects as the chemical being evaluated. Dose-response modeling describes the relationship over an entire range of data. The decision analytic approach makes risk estimates for a specific health end point based on dose-response profiles.

However, most indoor air is contaminated by a host of gaseous and particulate pollutants. Evidence of the synergistic effects of these pollutants can be gained from properly designed experiments that include animal studies, controlled human exposure, and epidemiologic studies. Personal exposure can be determined by monitors worn on the subject and by monitoring specific biological indicators such as blood and breath samples. Conventional epidemiologic study designs-cross-sectional, cohort, and case-control-have both advantages and disadvantages in this field. Barriers to the accurate assessment of interaction potential of indoor air pollutants are noted.

The electromagnetic fields usually have both electric and magnetic field components. Epidemiologic studies are cited that involve residential exposures of children and adults, and those involving occupational exposure that have examined leukemia only, brain cancer only, and all cancers combined. The evidence for carcinogenic effects of low-frequency field exposure is strongest for brain cancer in both occupationally exposed adults and in children, and not as strong for leukemia. Risk assessment for carcinogenic effects from adult residential exposures is inconclusive, but should be evaluated further.

To assess the effects of these pollutants on children, 62 children undergoing routine examinations at the Michigan State Univ Pediatric Chest Clinic were randomly selected and categorized as to the type of indoor heating used in their home. Results indicated that moderate and acute symptoms were greater among children from homes heated by woodburning stoves than among those from nonwoodburning homes. The majority of homes in the affected study group used woodburning stoves as the primary source of indoor heating. No significant differences were found between study and control groups for socioeconomic status or equipment used.

The study was based on 200 control and 600 UFFI homes, and occupants were assessed, using a questionnaire to investigate construction details, ventilation, pollution sources, and adverse health symptoms. Formaldehyde levels were monitored with a pump and impingers centrally located both in- and outdoors. Surveys conducted in the UFFI homes indicated direct exposure-response relationships between formaldehyde levels and the number of symptoms. Following UFFI removal, adverse health effects were significantly reduced, but the actual formaldehyde concentration levels had not appreciably changed. Therefore, the presence of formaldehyde-related symptoms could not be explained by the formaldehyde alone.

Neuropsychological techniques, some of which are now computerized, are available for assessing responses to VOCs. The parameters measured include orientation, verbal intelligence, language and visual memory, and executive and motor skills. In order for these tests to be viable, adequate norms must be available for comparison. Unfortunately, these norms do not currently exist for blue-collar workers who sometimes may be of lower intellectual ability than normative samples used. These tests are also affected by age and sex. Neuropsychological tests are known to have high sensitivity but low specificity. The ability to make diagnoses between neurotoxic exposure, neurologic disease, psychiatric disturbance, or conditioned responses is difficult.

Carcinogenic potency data on 975 chemicals were compared to genotoxicity data on 2832 chemicals. Analyses revealed 67 genotoxic carcinogens and 46 nongenotoxic carcinogens, suggesting that genotoxic carcinogenic potency was 50% higher than nongenotoxic carcinogenic potency. The data examined are relevant only at high subtoxic dosages, so the relationship at lower dosages remains to be determined. The intersection of the examined data bases is tabulated.

CRS Report for Congress. AN - 62935029; ED343230 AB - The Neighborhood Schools Improvement Act (H.R. 3320) was ordered to be reported by the House Committee on Education and Labor on October 17, 1991. This report provides an introduction to the "systemic statewide reform" concept, on which H.R. 3320 is largely based, plus a summary of the bill, and a discussion of selected issues related to this legislation and certain alternatives to it. Advocates of systemic statewide reform argue that it is important to improve and coordinate all major aspects of a state or local education system simultaneously in order for reforms to be effective. In contrast, opponents of H.R. 3320 may argue that it is too poorly targeted or its authorized funding level too low to have substantial impact, or that it would leave reform programs largely under the control of the same authorities who have been responsible for current school systems and attendant problems. Other issues that might be raised with respect to H.R. 3320 include: (1) Are the proposed forms of private school involvement appropriate? and (2) Is there adequate attention to the role of school finance equalization in statewide school reform?

Report To Accompany S. 1530. Senate, 102d Congress, 1st Session. AN - 62933104; ED340538 AB - This report, submitted by Senator Inouye to the Select Committee on Indian Affairs, summarizes the background and major provisions of Senate Bill 1530, to authorize the Secretary of the Interior, in collaboration with the Secretaries of Education, Health and Human Services, and Labor, to approve tribal plans for the integration, at the tribal level, of employment, training, and related services now funded through a variety of statutes. Grants reserved exclusively for Indian programs are currently available to tribal governments for job training services under the Job Training and Partnership Act; for adult and youth vocational education programs under the Carl Perkins Act; and for education, skills training, and work experience services for recipients of Aid to Families with Dependent Children under the Job Opportunities and Basic Skills program of the Family Support Act. Senate Bill 1530 would allow tribal governments to consolidate paperwork associated with these various grants, coordinate closely related programs without objections from federal monitors, and pursue tribally determined goals consistent with the policy of self-determination. This report also discusses the use of training funds for job creation and economic development, the need for more timely information on Indian unemployment by state and tribe, and estimated annual costs of the act to the federal government. It is recomended that the bill be cited as the "Indian Employment, Training, and Related Services Demonstration Act of 1991."

AN - 62940171; ED338961 AB - In a national poll conducted in 1988, 83 percent of the American people felt that the nation's drug problem was "out of control." In 1988, Congress, responding to the public mandate, passed the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988. Title III of the Act specifically addressed these issues by authorizing two anti-drug programs for youth. These two programs were developed by the House Committee on Education and Labor as the Committee's part of the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988. Currently the war goes on. It is estimated that over one million youths run away from home each year. A 1990 study conducted by the National Network of Runaway and Youth Services found that among runaway, homeless, and other high-risk youths served by community-based agencies, 46 percent had a substance abuse problem and 14 percent were addicted to alcohol or other drugs. Youth street gangs are growing rapidly. The Committee on Education and Labor heard testimony from both public and private community-based organizations relating to the value of multi-agency consortium grants. This report presents proposed amendments which add multi-agency grants, designate funding, and require an annual report. An explanation of the bill, Congressional Budget Office estimate, section-by-section analysis, and the Act with proposed amendments are included.

AN - 62934992; ED338154 AB - A joint report by members of two Congressional Committees examined the proposed bill to carry out the National Sea Grant College Program Act and recommended that the bill be passed. The Sea Grant College Program Act authorizes appropriations for the National Sea Grant Program, which provides grants to support university-based marine research, education, and advisory services, and repeals the Strategic Marine Research Program. The committees supported a 5-year reauthorization at levels that would permit the continuation of the existing network without reduction. The committees reviewed the legislative history of this reauthorization and authorized levels of funding for 5 years with cost estimates from the Congressional Budget Office. An examination of the regulatory impact of the bill found that as the bill reauthorizes an existing program, no additional regulatory, economic, paperwork, or personal privacy burdens would be imposed on individuals or businesses. However, because the Strategic Marine Research Program component of the National Sea Grant Program duplicated another program, it was repealed. The report analyzes the bill section by section and indicates changes and omissions from the original bill.

It is noted that U.S. university participation in AID development assistance ventures has declined since passage of the Title XII program of the Foreign Assistance Act in 1975. New opportunities for U.S. university involvement in foreign development assistance, however, are arising from new initiatives in AID, and in other development assistance organizations. In addition, AID is focusing on its affiliations with development assistance organizations, including U.S. universities, to encourage multi-institutional collaborative relationships. The report covers the following topics: how AID has utilized university resources; recent trends in AID/university collaboration; trends in AID policies, programs, and funding; perceived conflicts in the AID/university relationship, both historical and recurrent; and opportunities for U.S. university participation in development assistance. Also discussed are new directions for university participation in development assistance. Appendices include a list of programs supporting research and technology generation, AID Regional Bureau strategies, and AID actions in developing countries. Contains 120 references.

AN - 62929650; ED338770 AB - This report presents national data for 1990 on high school dropout and retention rates. The report uses the Current Population Survey and the National Education Longitudinal Study of 1988. The three types of dropout rates discussed are: (1) event rates, (2) status rates, and (3) cohort rates. The report also examines high school completion and graduation rates. Data indicate that national dropout rates have declined over the last decade. The event dropout rate for persons 15 through 24 years old in grades 10 through 12 was 6.2 percent in 1980 and 4.1 percent in 1990. The status dropout rate for persons 16 through 24 was 14.1 percent in 1973 and 12.1 percent in 1990. In addition, recently collected longitudinal data reveal that about 7 percent of the eighth graders enrolled in the spring of 1988 dropped out before the end of their sophomore year in high school. The following results are highlighted: (1) male and female rates are comparable; (2) central city rates are higher than suburban rates; (3) rates for Hispanic Americans are higher than rates for Whites; and (4) status and cohort rates in the South are higher than those in the Northeast and Midwest and are higher for Blacks than for Whites. New data collection efforts by the National Center for Education Statistics that have a bearing on issues of high school dropouts and graduates are briefly discussed in the concluding section. The report includes 15 tables and 11 graphs. Appendix A contains time series and standard error tables, and Appendix B provides technical notes.

CRS Report for Congress. AN - 62940367; ED343231 AB - As part of its "America 2000" strategy for education reform, the Bush Administration has proposed the authorization of "merit schools" grants to elementary and secondary schools based on their performance. Questions associated with the merit school concept include the treatment of private schools, consideration of schools' pupil population or resources, authorized uses of funds, criteria for measuring school performance, and the role of the governor. Evidence to either substantiate or refute the assumption that financial incentives will have desirable effects is severely limited. There are several state programs that authorize performance-based awards to schools, with few restrictions on the use of funds. Alternative merit school models that might be considered include tying merit grants to performance specifically under existing federal programs, such as the Chapter 1 program for disadvantaged children, providing merit grants to states meeting certain goals, or providing nonfinancial awards--such as regulatory waivers--to especially successful schools.

AN - 62930464; ED342498 AB - The School Readiness Act of 1991 (S. 911) amends the Head Start Act to expand the availability of the comprehensive health, educational, nutritional, and social services of Head Start to all eligible children and their families by 1997. This senate report on S. 911 begins by affirming the effectiveness of high quality early childhood development programs in preparing children for school while noting that funding is below the level that would be needed to serve all eligible children. Section II provides a description and funding history of Project Head Start, highlighting the effects of inadequate funding coupled with demands to expand enrollment. Section III presents the views of the Committee on Labor and Human Resources on appropriation levels, a new Head Start Transition Program to facilitate the smooth transition of disadvantaged children from Head Start to elementary education, American Indian and migrant programs, infant and toddler programs, full-day services, and Head Start Facilities. Section IV provides a cost estimate for the School Readiness Act of 1991, indicating that appropriations for the program would be $3 billion in 1992, $4 billion in 1993, $5 billion in 1994, $6 billion in 1995, and $7 billion in 1996. Current appropriations, pay-as-you-go considerations, and costs to state and local governments are also discussed. Section V looks at the regulatory impact of the bill and Section VI provides a section-by-section analysis. Finally, Section VII presents the Head Start Act and highlights all new or amended sections.

AN - 62939261; ED341377 AB - Arguing that research, development, and dissemination are the least expensive, least threatening, and most needed forms of assistance that the Federal Government can provide to educators working toward the National Education Goals, this committee report presents 21 recommendations designed to enable the Office of Educational Research and Improvement (OERI) to play a leading role in the development of a national education reform strategy. It is noted that this report has been developed as the first step in the process of preparing legislation for the reauthorization of OERI. Background information provided by a foreword by Major R. Owens, chairman of the subcommittee, and an introduction, is followed by a list of the recommendations; detailed discussions of each of the recommendations; and a summary of related hearing testimony from July 30, 1987, through April 25, 1991, including a list of all witnesses. Two papers and a table displaying the research databases of selected Federal agencies are appended. In the first paper, "Responding to Children at Risk: A Guide to Recent Reports," Susan Austin and Gail Meister provide summaries of recommendations for the early and middle learning years and the high school years, followed by abstracts of 27 reports. In the second paper, "Tilling Fertile Soil: How Education Dissemination Can Benefit from Experiences of the U.S. Department of Agriculture," Susan Shurberg Klein presents and discusses 12 principles that have worked well in agricultural dissemination and suggests implications for their replication by OERI for education dissemination. The latter paper lists 25 references.

Committee on the Judiciary, House of Representatives, 102nd Congress, 1st Session. AN - 62932044; ED342384 AB - Section 108 of the Copyright Act of 1976, Title 17 of the United States Code, spells out conditions under which libraries may photocopy copyrighted works without infringing the rights of their owners. Section 108(i) directs the Register of Copyrights to prepare and file a report every 5 years setting forth the extent to which this section has achieved the intended balancing of the rights of creators and the needs of users. The bill H.R. 1612 simply deletes paragraph (i) of section 108, thereby eliminating this recurring reporting requirement. On April 10, 1991, the Subcommittee on Intellectual Property and Judicial Administration held an oversight hearing on the Copyright Office. Evidence exists that section 108(i) has fulfilled its purpose of reporting to the Congress about the practical operation of the library reproduction provisions and the experience of copyright owners and users under the law. Additionally, it is estimated by the Congressional Budget Office that enactment of H.R. 1612 would result in savings by the Federal Government of $150,000 over the next 3 years. This report includes the legislative history and background of the bill as well as the proposed changes in the existing law.

AN - 62925463; ED344153 AB - This report assesses the societal costs of substance abuse--especially cocaine and crack addition--and dropping out of school. It is organized around three themes: (1) the impact of cocaine and crack abuse in terms of crime, public spending, and lost productivity; (2) policies that move addicts away from crack; and (3) policies that reduce the high school dropout rate. Based on extant literature, the report quantifies a bottom-line cost of drug abuse to have been between $60.4 billion and $124.9 billion in 1988, a figure that reflects the costs of health care, economic loss, and law enforcement relating to substance abuse. Impact also is assessed in terms of private and social issues. In evaluating the success of policies that have effectively moved addicts away from drugs, important questions concerning criteria for success, motivation for drug use, and addiction are explored. Law enforcement, treatment, educational, and prevention policies are evaluated. The current literature on testing, outpatient treatment, and peer programs to reduce the motivation toward drug abuse and to move addicts away from cocaine and crack is reviewed. In response to the issue of dropout prevention, the report recommends a rethinking of the structure of high schools within a collaborative context involving parents, schools, and communities. Included in the report are a working bibliography and a community service booklet that deals with the issues of this report on a local community level.

AN - 21350340; 7693832 AB - Conventional methods of risk assessment typically employed to evaluate the impact of hazardous waste incinerators on public health must rely on somewhat speculative emissions estimates or on complicated and expensive sampling and analytical methods. The limited amount of toxicological information concerning many of the compounds detected in stack emissions also complicates the evaluation of the public health impacts of these facilities. An alternative approach aimed at evaluating the public health impacts associated with volatile organic stack emissions is presented that relies on a screening criterion to evaluate total stack hydrocarbon emissions. If the concentration of hydrocarbons in ambient air is below the screening criterion, volatile emissions from the incinerator are judged not to pose a significant threat to public health. Both the screening criterion and a conventional method of risk assessment were employed to evaluate the emissions from 20 incinerators. Use of the screening criterion always yielded a substantially greater estimate of risk than that derived by the conventional method. Since the use of the screening criterion always yielded estimates of risk that were greater than that determined by conventional methods and measuring total hydrocarbon emissions is a relatively simple analytical procedure, the use of the screening criterion would appear to facilitate the evaluation of operating hazardous waste incinerators.

From the E. coli K-12 host strain the plasmid could be efficiently transferred to these enteric bacteria, but its transfer back to E. coli K-12 was not as efficient, being detected only in Shigella dysenteriae 1, S. flexneri and the 'smooth' variant of S. sonnei. In these three species, transposition of chromosomal fragments into the plasmid to produce R-prime plasmid was also detected at a frequency of approximately 10 super(-5). Transposition was random as suggested by the recovery at approximately the same frequency (10 super(-5) to 10 super(-6)) of R-primes involving 20 different auxotrophic markers from widely separated chromosomal locations. Formation of R-prime plasmids expressing toxicity in the E. coli K-12 recipient strain was also efficient in S. dysenteriae 1 but the toxin-activity was rapidly lost from these R-primes. In our experiments, the plasmid pULB113 incorporated relatively small amounts of chromosomal DNA as determined by restriction endonuclease digestion. For a Thy+ R-prime that we analyzed, the amount of cloned DNA was approximately 15 kb.

Community-exposed subjects from a biomedical company and occupationally exposed subjects referred by three Massachusetts hospitals were tested by the K-XRF procedure. It was determined that K-XRF could distinguish among populations with occupational VS environmental Pb exposures. It was also noted that bone Pb increased with age and that K-XRF measurements were not as precise among subjects who were female, those with greater body weights, and those with smaller Pb amounts.

These responses were compared to those of a comparison population located 5 mi away. Results indicate that, although odors and the level of contaminants had actually been reduced, the exposed population continued to experience and report many more symptoms than did the residents of the control area. It is suggested that the worry associated with living near a waste-disposal site rather than exposure to chemicals from the site was the cause of the excess symptom reporting of this population. Those involved in hazardous-waste cleanup efforts need to be aware of this type of reaction.

At first, it was thought that radioactive discharges from the plant were causing the rise in the disease. However, subsequent geographical, case-control, and cohort studies revealed the true source of the problem to be the fathers' exposure to external radiation at work in the plant before their children were conceived. The phenomenon is considered to be an occupational rather than environmental health problem.

These tests revealed an increased prevalence of respiratory symptoms and diseases among the children. The paradoxical finding of a higher annual increase in pulmonary function among the participants from the more-polluted area might be partly attributable to such variables as differential annual increases in height and passive smoking.

Semivolatile emissions were found to pose minor risks, but further study of dioxins and dibenzofurans is recommended. Emissions containing cadmium could be a major risk at certain sites as might hexavalent chromium, although this is more questionable. Air pollution control devices or waste feed controls should be used at any plant generating emissions with these metals in them. Monitoring equipment should concentrate on Cd and Cr(VI) emissions.

Respiratory symptoms were ascertained on a subgroup of 3914 in 1977 and 1987. Results indicate that the risk of all malignant neoplasms among women, symptoms of airway obstructive disease, chronic bronchitis, and asthma were associated with ambient concentrations of total suspended particulates. It is noted that this study did not find any statistically significant relationship between the cumulative ten-year incidence of airway obstructive disease and total oxidants or ozone.

Odor perception, concern, and symptoms such as headaches, nausea, and sore throats and eyes were measured and analyzed. Results indicate that environmental odors and concern played major roles in causing physical symptoms in populations near hazardous-waste sites. It is recommended that future research in this area include real-time monitoring of exposures, daily logs for symptom reporting, and the identification of sources of bias in reporting.

Case-Control Study on Lung Cancer and Cooking Fuel AN - 14285507; 10454920 AB - China's highest lung cancer mortality rates are in Xuan Wei County, Yunnan Province. Two studies were conducted to clarify the relationship among lung cancer mortality, indoor air pollution caused by cooking fuels, and smoking. Results indicated that indoor PAH pollution, caused by burning smoky coal in unventilated, shallow pits was significantly related to lung cancer in Xuan Wei County. Specifically, in men and women. the incidence of lung cancer was related to family histories of lung cancer and chronic bronchitis. Men who smoked and had histories of cooking food were at increased risk.

The study included parental questionnaires, blood Pb analyses, hematologial and anthropometric measurements, and daily air and dust monitoring. The results revealed that 13% of the mixed-race children had blood Pb levels higher than recognized as safe by the United States. Environmental Pb levels were elevated near heavy traffic, and automobile emissions were considered to be a major source of increased blood Pb levels of children attending schools near heavy traffic. This situation is common throughout Africa, and it is urged that measures be enacted to reduce environmental Pb levels.

The interviewer-administered health questionnaires revealed that the residents of Pisa had higher rates of respiratory symptoms and diseases than those living in the unpolluted Po Delta. Specifically studied were rhinitis, wheezing symptoms, chronic coughing, and the presence of phlegm. It is concluded that in the 1980s, urban dwelling is associated with the rates of respiratory problems in Pisa.

Membrane damage alone does not account for fibrogenesis. A two-phase procedure establishes that both compact and fibrous particles induce release of a macrophase factor that initiates collagen synthesis by fibroblasts. The amino acid composition of this macrophase fibrogenic factor is outlined. Problems associated with the type, durability, and dimensions of fibrous particles are discussed, along with other mechanisms that may be involved in the process of fibrogenesis. A important finding is that both long and short asbestos fibers are fibrogenetic.

During 1988, 600 six-yr-olds underwent monthly spirometry tests designed to measure lung function. At the same time, air samples from six sites were collected and analyzed. Preliminary results indicate that cumulative monthly exposure to nonspecific thoracic mass concentration reduced lung airway flow rates. Researchers are currently studying the effects of chronic pollution exposure on lung growth rates and are trying to determine whether some industrial effluents affect lung function more than others.

Residents had a higher symptom rate than people living in control communities. Suggested causes of these higher rates are: classic toxicological reaction, immunological or other physiogenic hazardous waste syndrome, behavioral sensitization, psychosomatic reaction to stress, mass psychogenic illness, reporting bias, confounding factors, and odor as an effect modifier. It is proposed that protocols be developed to test the hypothesis that symptoms such as these, which are connected to low-level chemical exposures, are early signs of serious immunological or neurological problems.

The data concerning reproductive and developmental toxicity in humans and animals caused by high levels of toluene resulting from inhalation are reviewed. Included are case studies of intrauterine growth retardation among infants of human mothers who had abused toluene and the results of animal experiments. It is concluded that the abuse of toluene results in exposure levels that equal or exceed those producing adverse effects in animals.

II. Methodologic Issues and Feasibility AN - 14277597; 10454929 AB - Some of the important methodological issues in the use of ecological design for epidemiological studies are reviewed. These issues include: establishment of appropriate numerators and denominators, reliability of exposure data, consideration of latency in disease development, population-migration effects, ecological fallacy, multicollinearity, strategies in statistical analysis to avoid ecological bias, and other problems concerning the interpretation of ecologic studies. Recent Canadian and US data sets, potentially useful for this type of study, are discussed. It is concluded that considerable practical difficulties, such as the relative scarcity of relevant environmental data and other complications involving the compatability of health data, are common in the implementation of ecological design for epidemiological studies.

As many as 10% of infant deaths in the US are attributable to sudden infant death syndrome, influenza, or pneumonia may have actually been caused by cold injury syndrome. Deaths from cold injury syndrome are preventable if the condition is detected in time. Clinical trials are suggested for areas with excessive neonatal deaths in winter months to see whether the use of low-reading thermometers supplied to nurses can detect cold injury syndrome.

At the time of the accident, the inhabitants complained of acute formaldehyde symptoms. Many of these people developed chronic health problems. Approximately three yr later, 42 of those exposed to the formaldehyde were tested for the pressence of immunologic biomarkers. These data were then compared to results of the same tests performed on 29 residents of a nearby town not exposed to the formaldehyde. It is concluded that the exposed subjects of Crown Point had activated immune systems and elevated autoantibodies.

When high doses prove to cause cancer, it is extrapolated that lower doses will, too. One problem with this method is that it does not take into consideration the possibility of threshold dose-response phenomena. Work on the qualitative and quantitative comparison of carcinogenicities between rodents and humans, and mice and rats, is reviewed. It is concluded that there is a qualitative correlation for these comparisons. Further, for chemicals already tested, the upper limits on potencies in humans are consistent with rodent potencies.

CRS Report for Congress. AN - 62931237; ED342306 AB - As part of the reauthorization of the Higher Education Act of 1965 the Congress has examined concerns that the process of applying for aid under the Act's Title IV has become increasingly complex and may itself be creating barriers to an equitable student aid delivery system. Under the current system students are required to provide financial information to be used in formulas for determining the amount that the family can reasonably be expected to contribute to the cost of attendance at a postsecondary institution. The reauthorization bill requires the Department of Education to develop a common financial reporting form for students to use in applying for aid; it also mandates the use of a simplified need analysis to make it easier for students from the families with the lowest incomes to apply. During reauthorization a number of need analysis simplification proposals have been considered including promotion of a common, free federal application form or improvements in the processing of student information in other ways, changes to the eligibility criteria and procedures for using a "simplified" need analysis, and the integration of the two separate need analysis formulas currently in the statute. Twelve notes are included. (JB) AU - Schenet, Margot A.

Hearing before the Select Committee on Children, Youth, and Families. House of Representatives, One Hundred Second Congress, First Session. AN - 62937347; ED340483 AB - A Congressional hearing on noise-induced hearing loss, an often overlooked health issue, was held to determine the extent of the problem in children and youth. Congresswoman Patricia Schroeder, who presided, cited the effects of repeated exposure to loud sounds over a period of time, including the role that personal stereos and some common household items can play in hearing loss. The electronics industry was invited to participate in the hearing but was not represented. A fact sheet prepared for the record gives statistics on the number of Americans who are hearing-impaired and summarizes research on the exposure of children and youth, the special hazards of personal stereo use, prevention measures, and the effects of exercise, alcohol, and smoking on hearing. Included are prepared statements and testimony from congressmen from Illinois and Missouri, and from witnesses representing such groups as the record industry, the Central Institute for the Deaf, the University of Michigan Medical Center, the National Institutes of Health, Self-Help for Hard of Hearing People, Hearing Education and Awareness for Rockers, the Car Audio Specialists Association, and the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. Statements on exposure to firecrackers and the times when a child's hearing should be tested are also included.

Hearing before the Subcommittee on Investigation and Oversight of the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology. U.S. House of Representatives, One Hundred Second Congress, First Session. AN - 62828844; ED359025 AB - This document presents a transcript of the hearing to examine undergraduate science education in relation to the traditional and nontraditional sources of future research scientists. Two specific aspects of the topic were identified for examination: (1) successful methods of science education employed at small liberal arts schools; and (2) what can be done to increase participation of underrepresented groups in science. The Subcommittee heard testimony from 10 witnesses representing small colleges successful in producing mathematics and science majors and in increasing the participation of underrepresented groups in science. Testimony: (1) highlighted aspects of the Project Kaleidoscope report; (2) pointed out the poor state of science and mathematics education in the United States today and discussed four initiatives for undergraduate studies that might help rectify that situation; (3) cited the apprenticeship model of education and the work ethic of traditional small liberal arts college students as reasons for their success in supplying future scientists; (4) attributed the success of undergraduate institutions in developing future scientists to the participation of the students in undergraduate research that stimulates student interest in science; (5) discussed undergraduate and minority high school student research projects that contribute to the interest in science careers; (6) discussed the contributions of historically black colleges in providing future scientists; (7) discussed strategies to attract members of underrepresented groups into science; (8) addressed the issues of recruitment and retention of women in science; (9) discussed collaborative efforts with universities and schools to attract girls and minorities into science; and (10) discussed the National Science Foundation's role in Project Kaleidoscope.

AN - 62938992; ED343228 AB - Conditional deregulation of federal elementary and secondary education assistance programs, that is, waiving one or more program regulations in return for some additional accountability, has been proposed in recent years and endorsed by the Bush administration. The "America 2000" legislation proposes a broad authority for conditional deregulation of federal elementary and secondary education assistance programs. Similar legislation with respect to state regulations has been adopted by some states. Unlike earlier proposals to transform federal elementary and secondary education assistance programs into block grants," these proposals would reduce the number of requirements for the use of funds under a variety of programs, but would require in return new forms of accountability based on program results.

AN - 62928851; ED341622 AB - Despite pressures for reducing the overall spending of the federal government, some policymakers and analysts have considered increasing the funding for particular areas that might be especially important to the long-term growth of the economy. Increases have been proposed in spending for highways and other types of physical infrastructure, for education, and for research and development. At the request of the Rules Committee of the House of Representatives, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has prepared this study of the economic effects of federal investment spending. In particular, this study examines the effect on the economy of three broad classes of federal investment spending: physical infrastructure, including programs for transportation and environmental facilities; human capital, including programs that increase the skills and productive knowledge that people bring to their jobs; and intangible capital, such as research and development. Within each of these categories, the study examines trends in spending, discusses the rationales for that spending, and reviews evidence on the contribution of public investment to economic performance. The section on "Federal Investment in Human Capital" (p.48-58) covers federal outlays for education. In keeping with CBO's mandate, the study contains no recommendations. A number of tables and figures conveying data are included.

The findings indicate that the age-gender specific risk of death is lower for girls during the first 5 months of life, but the pattern reverses after that age, & differences increase with age. A logit model analysis was employed to determine the net effects of the independent variables on child survival & their dependence on the child's gender. The primary effect of mother's education proved dependent on gender, unlike other variables, & was most prominent between the "no education" & "1-5 years schooling" groups. The results document the positive effect of mother's education on child survival between ages 6 & 35 months, & confirm prior research findings that have highlighted the deep-rooted gender discrimination in this area. 4 Tables, 2 Figures.

Using data from the "National Postsecondary Student Aid Survey of 1986" the study compares five groups of "non-traditional" students with data for all undergraduates and for "traditional" students. The five groups of "non-traditional" students include students who are independent of their parents' support, part-time students, "older" students (24 years and older), students without high school diplomas, and students who are single parents. Highlights of the report's findings indicate that there is considerable overlap between categories of "nontraditional" students; that 81 percent of single-parent students are women, 42 percent are members of minority groups, and 71 percent have incomes below $15,000; that independent students overall tend to have lower family incomes compared with dependent students; that "nontraditional" students are most likely to attend public community colleges (63 percent of part-time students are enrolled at community colleges), and that "nontraditional" students participate at different rates in federal student aid programs (i.e., one-third of independent students receive some Title IV aid while 12 percent of part-time students receive Title IV aid). Included are 6 tables and 15 references. (JB) AU - Apling, Richard N.

United States Senate, One Hundred Second Congress, First Session on S. 765. A Bill To Amend Title 17, United States Code, the Copyright Renewal Provisions, and for Other Purposes. AN - 62895107; ED343610 AB - This hearing was held to discuss a proposal to restore a measure of equity and fairness to the copyright law. Under current law, authors whose works were created after January 1, 1978, receive a single term of copyright protection, extending for the life of the author, plus 50 years. But authors of pre-1978 works are only entitled to a 28-year term of protection, and must file a registration renewal with the copyright office to receive an additional 47-year term of protection. This renewal requirement has caused a number of authors to accidentally forfeit copyright protection for their work, consequences felt most harshly by less noted authors of minor works, and by heirs and families of authors. S. 756, a bill to amend the copyright renewal provisions of title 17, U.S. Code, will automatically grant an additional 47-year term of copyright protection for these pre-1978 works and will make registration renewal voluntary. After an opening statement by Dennis DeConcini, Chairman of the Subcommittee, and the text of S. 756, transcripts of the testimony and/or statements by two witnesses are provided: (1) Ralph Oman, Register of Copyrights at the Library of Congress, accompanied by Dorothy Schrader and Eric Schwartz; and (2) Burton Lane, composer, on behalf of the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers, accompanied by Bernard Korman.

AN - 62898550; ED338166 AB - This report presents testimony, along with prepared letters, statements, and supplemental materials, submitted before a House congressional hearing concerned with the reauthorization of the Higher Education Act of 1965 in general, and the integrity and quality of grant and loan assistance for students in particular. The testimony and statements address two problems in the student loan assistance program: (1) the imbalance between grants and loans; and (2) the Department of Education's poor oversight and management of the student assistance program. Specifically, the first problem concerns the fact that loans to students comprise nearly 75% while grants account for the remaining 25% of student aid, a reversal of the way the loan assistance programs were expected to work. The second problem comes from an Office of Management and Budget report, along with one from the Education Department, which concluded that the Department of Education's management practices had contributed to high student loan default rates, and fraud and abuse in the student assistance programs. In addition, it was concluded by the Government Accounting Office that the Department's financial statements were unreliable because the accounting system that the Department is using does not produce accurate information.

Chapter 15 reviews research on the shortcomings of the mainstream primary health care system with respect to adolescents, including the scarcity of specially trained providers. It discusses recent innovations to improve the service delivery to adolescents. Chapter 16 addresses issues in financial access to health services, noting that one out of seven adolescents are without any health insurance. Chapter 17 examines requirements for parental consent or notification. It summarizes the law on how the authority for adolescent health care decisionmaking is allocated, common law rule, exceptions to the common law rule, positions of health care provider organizations on adolescent health care decisionmaking, and the research literature on adolescents making health care decisions on their own. Chapter 18 addresses the health issues and barriers to effective and appropriate health services that are faced by selected groups of adolescents (those living in poverty, members of racial or ethnic minorities, and residents of rural areas) and reviews knowledge on interventions to increase access to health services among these adolescents. Chapter 19 provides an overview of the federal role in adolescent health.

Gage wind loss and gage wind interference related to wind speed, direction and rainfall intensity caused substantial differences in the rain angle and rain direction estimates between the different vectopluviometers. Although no absolute standard device exists, the pole vectopluviometer, a fluted pole divided into four sectors, provided the estimates of rainfall direction which most closely agreed with anemometer data and is intrinsically able to estimate average rain angle independently of direction.

The table identifies the target organ for each chemical and compares these data from mouse and rat bioassays. The liver is the most common site in both species, and more than 80% of the carcinogens in each species are positive in at least one of the eight most frequent sites: liver, lung, mammary gland, stomach, vascular systems, kidney, hematopoietic systems, and urinary bladder. Site-specific prediction between rats and mice is less accurate than overall prediction of positivity.

Pb levels, camparable to those of ancient Peruvians, showed significantly decreased levels from those found in modern humans, indicating current exposure to anthropogenic sources. Increased levels of Cd, Zn, and Pb in the outer bone fractions over the inner bone fractions indicate that contamination occurred after death. Lead and Cd contamination were significantly higher than Zn and Au contamination.

The "Emergency" referred to is the departure of Christopher Cross as the head of OERI. The Honorable Major R. Owens, chairman of the subcommittee, expresses concern that the setting of national education research and dissemination policy is too important to allow partisan politics to interfere with the conduct of independent, objective research. The statement of Bruno Manno, Acting Assistant Secretary of OERI, presents the plans for fiscal year 1991 and 1992 activities to be carried out by OERI in conjunction with President Bush's Education Strategy, "America 2000." Manno notes that America 2000 is not a federal program, but rather a national program supported by federal aid. A discussion between Owens and Manno about the various programs to be supported by OERI and proposed uses of discretionary funds is reported in detail. Exchanges between Manno and Representative Ballenger of North Carolina and Representative Payne of New Jersy are also reported.

AN - 62901196; ED342332 AB - As part of a series of hearings on the reauthorization of the Higher Education Act of 1965, testimony was heard over 3 days on the integrity of the federal student financial assistance programs. In the course of addressing this issue witnesses testified the first day about public confidence in the programs, accreditation of schools and their eligibility for participation in federal programs, the cost of student loan defaults, for-profit trade schools, minority participation in higher education, and suggestions for reform. In addition to this testimony, the texts of three bills addressing reform of the Higher Education Act are presented: House of Representatives Bills numbered 327, 1118, and 2246. The second day heard officials from various federal agencies connected with the federal student financial aid programs, including the Deparment of Education and the General Accounting Office. The third day of testimony drew witnesses from state guarantee agencies, state approving agencies for Veterans Administration programs, state higher education officers, and the Council of Post-secondary Accreditation as well as witnesses to address college athletics financial disclosure and public accountability. Also included are the texts of the bills introduced, letters, supplemental materials, and the prepared statements of the witnesses and of others who were not able to appear.

N1 - Last updated - 2014-03-21 ER - TY - JOUR T1 - A Critique of the Use of Triangulation in Social Research AN - 61262272; 91Y0244 AB - A common concern among advocates of triangulation has been to overcome problems of bias & validity. It has been argued that the deficiencies of any one method can be overcome by combining methods, capitalizing on their individual strengths. However, the use of triangulation has been plagued with a lack of awareness of the different & incommensurate ontological & epistemological assumptions associated with the various theories & methods. While some combinations of methods have been used within a common ontological & epistemological framework, serious problems have been created, although not usally recognized, when methods based on different assumptions have been used. After examining the origins of triangulation in social research, its use in navigation & surveying, & how this differs from its use in sociology, a framework of sociological perspectives is outlined to identify the major differences in ontological & epistemological assumptions, & problems that the use of triangulation has produced are considered, including: the inappropriateness of the metaphor, the meaning of convergence or lack of it in the use of two or more methods or data sources, different views on what it means to combine methods, & the consequences of adopting incompatible assumptions. Some suggestions are made about what needs to be done to overcome these problems, & it is argued that there should be a moratorium on the use of the concept in social research. 81 References.

Alternative, water-based construction paints are less harmful to human beings and the environment than are traditional paints that contain organic solvents. The composition of selected water-based paints was obtained by a questionnaire survey sent to major producers and importers in the Netherlands. Physicochemical parameters and toxicity data on the ingredients were used to estimate occupational and environmental health hazards. Mucous membrane or skin irritation and sensitization are predicted to be the most frequent hazards from contact with these paints. Irritation of mucous membranes can result from indoor use, and fish deaths could result from slow degradation of polyacrylate binders.

The most abundant form of Cr in the environment, Cr(III), does not readily cross cell membranes and is relativily inactive in vivo, as opposed to hexavelent Cr or chromate. A DNA replication assay and transfection of Cr-treated DNA into Escherichia coli were used to test the genotoxicity of Cr(III). The in vitro rate of DNA replication and the amount of incorporation in each polymerase binding event were greatly increased on a Cr(III)-treated template relative to controls. In E. coli, Cr(III)-treated bacteriophage DNA showed a dose-dependent increase in mutation frequency. The results suggest that Cr(III) alters the interaction between the DNA template and the polymerase, increasing the binding strength of the enzyme. It is suggested that Cr(III) contributes to carcinogenesis.

Analysis of soil from the Jersey City site yielded low levels of sodium and Cr present as a Ca compound. Chromium was administered oraly to young, male rats for 14 d as Cr-contaminated soil, as CaCrO sub(4), and as an equimolar mixture of soil and Ca salts for 14 d. The rats were killed 24 hr after the last dosing and tissues were taken for Cr analysis. Blood, muscle, and liver contained the greatest levels of Cr, and the kidney yielded the highest concentrations of Cr/g of tissue. Data on extretion of Cr were also obtained.

An overview of a conference on Cr contamination held February 1990 in Piscataway, NJ, is presented, in which some of the tasks ahead in the field of Cr risk assessment is illustrated. The goal of the conference was to identify the components of the Cr problem that require further research attention. During the first half of the 20th Century, northern New Jersey was the chromite-chromate industrial capital of the world. The legacy of this industry is millions of tons of Cr-containing slag left at many locations and communities in Hudson County. The greatest challenge for the risk assessor lies in the difference in toxicity and carcinogenicity between the trivalent and hexavalent forms of Cr. (The latter are potent carcinogens, while the former are essential trace elements.) Chromium residues can alternate between these oxidation states in environmental media and in living cells, posing a major challenge to the analytical laboratory.

A study is presented that tested the hypothesis that the differences in DNA lesions observed in various cell cultures and in vivo arise because of the various metabolic pathways for Cr reduction. In vitro, hexavalent Cr reacts with glutathione to form two pentavalent Cr complexes and the glutathione thiyl radical. When Cr(VI) was reacted with DNA in the presence of glutathione, CrDNA adducts formed and no DNA strand breakage was observed. Reaction of Cr(VI) with hydrogen peroxide led to formation of hydroxyl radical. Reaction of Cr(VI) with DNA in the presence of H sub(2)O sub( 2) produced notable strand breakage and a hydroxydeoxyguanosine adduct in proportion to hydroxyl radical production. No marked CrDNA adduct was detected. The type of DNA damage induced by Cr appears to depend on the reactive intermediates.

Because of the lack of adequate worker exposure data, studies of diseases produced by exposure to various Cr compounds are not able to distinguish the risks attributable to the individual compounds, and they are unable to quantify the exposurerisk relationship in more than a crude manner. Although Cr-related diseases have long been recognized, exposure data have not been generated to help resolve lingering questions about which Cr compounds cause specific diseases and at what levels of exposure. Studies of industries, such as chromate milling, pigment manufacturing, and electroplating, that expose workers to Cr are individually considered.

The basic problem lies in the impossibility to predict the dose of Cr that reaches its site of toxic action in the body. In the federal Superfund program, uncertainties in risk assessment can undermine attempts to characterize potential effects on populations exposed to metals from improperly disposed waste. RfD values for Cr are based on long-term studies in which no adverse effects were seen even at the highest dose. Knowledge of mechanisms of toxicity and carcinogenesis are needed to increase confidence in oral RfDs, to assist in establishing inhalation RfDs, and to help evaluate the overall effect of Cr inhalation on the induction of cancer.

Studies demonstrated that 14% of the applied dose of hexavalent and trivalent Cr to guinea pig skin penetrated within 524 h after application. Other investigations showed that Cr(VI) localized among cells in the upper layers of guinea pig epidermis. Minute quantities of Cr(VI) will elicit a positive hypersensitivity reaction in susceptible individuals. The incidence and characteristics of Cr-induced skin hypersensitivity are related. The results of a survey of health effects in populations exposed to Cr slag in soil in Tokyo, Japan, indicated a tendency toward symptoms such as headache, chronic fatigue, and gastrointestinal complaints. Occult blood tests and other factors suggested incipient renal disease. On the basis of analysis of soil samples, it is proposed that levels of total Cr lower than 75 mg/kg in soil would avoid undue risk of contact dermatitis.

Redox reactions, chemical speciation, adsorption and desorption phenomena, and precipitation and dissolution reactions control the mobility of Cr. Solid-phase precipitates of hexavalent Cr such as barium chromate can serve as sources or sinks for Cr. Knowledge of the processes discussed is necessary to develop effective and efficient remediation designs for contaminated sites.

Hearing before the Select Committee on Children, Youth, and Families. House of Representatives, One Hundred Second Congress, First Session. AN - 62891367; ED338441 AB - Hearings were held concerning community-based mental health services for children. In an opening statement, Chairwoman Schroeder discussed issues of children's mental health and suggested that the committee study: (1) the effectiveness of community-based care in a model service system in California; (2) the importance of having service systems in place prior to a crisis; (3) creative funding strategies; and (4) the impact of inappropriate services on families. A fact sheet discusses the prevalence of childhood mental health problems; youth homelessness; lack of mental health care for children; inappropriate institutionalization; inadequate research in childhood mental health; inadequate insurance; and limited federal support. Statements from other committee members were included in the record. Seven other individuals presented statements. These statements included descriptions of the attempts of the State of Virginia to restructure its services and funding to better meet the needs of troubled youths and families; a demonstration community-based services project at Fort Bragg, North Carolina; and the California model system of care, a system expanded from the earlier Ventura model.

Hearing before the Subcommittee on Select Education of the Committee on Education and Labor, House of Representatives, One Hundred Second Congress, First Session. AN - 62898224; ED338208 AB - This hearing was called as one of a series of hearings to address concerns related to the role of the Federal Government and the Office of Educational Research and Improvement (OERI) in reaching the goal of providing equal educational opportunity to all in the United States. Arguing that significant inequalities in educational opportunities still exist, Major R. Owens (Representative from New York and chairman of the subcommittee) points out that these inequalities are most evident in the nation's inner cities and among minorities. A major problem identified by Owens is the need for additional support for school systems that must provide effective educational programs for at-risk students. The primary concerns addressed by this hearing were the proposed Institute for the Education of At-Risk Students, the depoliticization of educational research, the necessity for planning to meet the needs of rural educational programs, and the relationship between OERI, the Federal Government, and educational improvement. This transcript of the hearing includes testimony and prepared statements presented by eight witnesses: (1) Major R. Owens, Representative from New York; (2) James Comer, the Yale Child Study Center at Yale University; (3) Todd Strohmenger, the Rural Small Schools Program at the Appalachia Educational Laboratory; (4) Linda Darling-Hammond, National Center for Restructuring Education Schools and Teaching (NCREST) at Teachers College, New York; (5) Keith Geiger, the National Education Association; (6) Edmund Gordon, Yale University; (7) Shirley McBay, the Quality Education for Minorities Network; and (8) Laura Rendon, North Carolina State University, Raleigh.

Examining the Status of the Star Schools Program, a Federal Program That Enables Students To Be Linked Together via Satellite or Cable TV Hookup with Teachers in Different Parts of the Country. Hearing before the Committee on Labor and Human Resources, United States Senate, One Hundred Second Congress, First Session. AN - 62900582; ED344570 AB - The purpose of this hearing was to examine the status of the Star Schools program, a federal program enacted by Congress in 1987 that enables students to be linked together via satellite or cable TV hookup with teachers in different parts of the country. Star Schools are a network of distance education programs that link remote classes of students with teachers and courses to which students would not otherwise have access, by using communications satellites and other telecommunications technologies. It is noted that Star Schools programs exist primarily in rural areas where access to mathematics, science, and second language instruction is often unavailable by traditional educational means. In addition to the prepared statements, communications to various concerned officials, and responses to questions entered into the hearing record, this report includes transcripts of conversations that took place during a demonstration of the Star Schools technology between committee members and teachers and students in ongoing distance education classes. Prepared statements were provided by Senators Edward M. Kennedy, Orrin G. Hatch, James M. Jeffords, Strom Thurmond, Robert J. Kerrey, and Brock Adams; Gary Vance of the Satellite Educational Resources Consortium (SERC); Nancy Carson of the Office of Technology Assessment (OTA); Inabeth Miller of the Massachusetts Corporation for Educational Telecommunications; Gregory J. Liptak of Jones Spacelink and Mind Extension University; and William F. Werwaiss of Southern New England Bell Telephone. Responses to questions asked by Senator Kennedy were provided by Jeanne M. Tinnin of Kaycee Public Schools as well as Gregory J. Liptak, Nancy Carson, Gary Vance, William F. Werwaiss, and Inabeth Miller. Also included are communications to Amanda Broun of the Education Counsel of the U.S. Committee on Labor and Human Resources and Smith L. Holt and Malcolm V. Phelps of Oklahoma State University. These letters are accompanied by materials describing an advanced placement course in American Government offered by Oklahoma State University.

Hearing on Examining the Administration's Proposal To Reform the National Education System before the Committee on Labor and Human Resources. United States Senate, One Hundred Second Congress, First Session. AN - 62902614; ED337846 AB - Senator Edward M. Kennedy, chairman of the committee, opened the hearing by commending President Bush and U.S. Department of Education Secretary Lamar Alexander for putting forward an education reform plan. Kennedy then stated his reservations: the plan does not devote enough attention to school readiness; the administration emphasizes choice as a way to improve schools; and the proposals involve no new resources for education. Secretary Alexander's presentation summarizes the President's four-part strategy by comparing it to four large trains headed toward the national goals, all at one time. This is followed by a prepared statement by Senator Strom Thurmond in support of the plan. Questions by the senators on the committee and responses by Alexander compose the remainder of the hearing. Among the topics raised are the following: school readiness, the choice issue, accountability to public authority, children with disabilities, absence of full funding for Head Start, testing, the school year, economically disadvantaged children, the imbalance of resources between communities, and concern for the 70 percent of students who are not college-bound. Secretary Alexander explained that the proposed funding is for school districts or states that would like to try to give families a broader choice of the schools their children attend, including nonpublic schools. Editorials inserted into the record by Senator Cochran from newspapers in Tennessee and Mississippi conclude the publication.

Included in the report are a summary of the bill, its legislative history, background and need for the legislation, committee views, committee votes, cost estimate, regulatory impact statement, section-by-section analysis, minority views, and changes in existing law. According to the summary, the bill consists of proven, cost-effective initiatives promoting the national education goals set out by President Bush and the nation's governors in 1990. It strengthens the achievement of those goals with an initiative to establish independent assessment of whether the schools are reaching them. As endorsed by the majority of the committee members, the bill contains modifications that include school-based management/shared decision making, model schools of excellence, mathematics and science programs, star schools programs, high technology educational techniques, and dropout prevention. Minority committee members opposed the bill because they preferred literacy provisions legislation and because the bill was moved through committee very quickly.

CRS Issue Brief. Updated. AN - 62898214; ED339919 AB - Media reports suggest widespread illiteracy among adults who may not be able to read, write, speak, or otherwise communicate competently enough to meet the demands of modern society. No consensus has been reached regarding a definition of illiteracy or supporting statistics. Estimates of adult illiteracy range form 0.5% to 50%, meaning that of the 196 million Americans over age 14 in 1988, the number who are less than functionally proficient would range from 1 million to 100 million. Illiteracy and incompetence in the nation's work force imply losses through low productivity, accidents, employee errors, and extra training programs. High rates of illiteracy are reported among welfare recipients and those in criminal institutions. Federal assistance for adult education and literacy programs is primarily authorized through the Adult Education Act (AEA). The AEA serves an estimated 3.9 million people annually, with a fiscal year 1991 appropriation of $229 million. In 1983, the Adult Literacy Initiative was launched to increase national attention to adult literacy. Much of the public effort by states and localities to address literacy problems is organized under the federal AEA program. Literacy programs are also operated by private groups. Federal options for responding to the problems of adult illiteracy are continuation of existing programs, increased funding, targeting and prioritization, and increased federal initiative and leadership. A national commission might be established to define illiteracy and provide expert direction toward increasing the quality of literacy data. Current legislation addressing the problem includes the National Literacy Act of 1991, the Higher Education Technical Amendments, and the Strengthening Education for American Families Act.

These groups include adolescents living in poverty, those from racial and ethnic minority groups, and those living in rural areas. The report identifies risk and protective factors for adolescent health problems and integrates national data in order to understand the clustering of specific adolescent problems. It also evaluates options in the organization of health services and technologies available to adolescents, including accessibility and financing. Options in the conduct of national health surveys to improve collection of adolescent health statistics are assessed, and gaps in research on the health and behavior of adolescents are identified. This volume summarizes the findings of OTA's report and presents the policy options arising from OTA's analysis. First it presents the major findings and policy options. Then it summarizes specific findings and additional policy options from chapters in volumes two and three of the report. Finally, it presents a discussion of selected barriers to and opportunities for change. A table of contents listing the chapters and appendices in volumes two and three is included in the appendix.

It develops several policy strategies and options to encourage economic development. The study was requested by the Joint Economic Committee of Congress and Senators Charles E. Grassley and Orrin G. Hatch. Chapter 1 provides a summary and policy conclusions. Chapter 2, "The Challenge for Rural America," describes unemployment, poverty, and out-migration and advocates upgrading the labor force. Chapter 3, "Rural America and the Changing Communication Infrastructure," proposes Rural Area Networks to deliver communication services to rural areas. Chapter 4, "Rural Development," explains a holistical approach to rural development that accompanies economic development by improving education, health care, and public administration capacities. Chapter 5, "Regulation and Rural Development," recommends that regulators must develop new regulatory approaches for rural areas. Finally, Chapter 6, "The Role of the Federal Government: Orchestrating Cooperation and Change," suggests that the Federal Government make rural development and the use of communications technologies a national priority. The appendix is a field journal that gives narrative impressions of the four states visited during the study: Kentucky, New Mexico, Washington, and Maine.

Summary. AN - 62992994; ED333850 AB - This report provides a summarized version of a larger study conducted by the Office of Technology Assessment concerning the choices that Congress and the executive branch must make in supporting U.S. science and engineering. The summary first discusses the report's origins; trends in federal research funding; and a look at federally funded research in the 1990s. The bulk of the summary then highlights and discusses four main issues and options confronting Congress in research funding. These are as follows: (1) setting priorities in the support of research; (2) understanding research expenditures; (3) adapting education and human resources to meet changing needs; and (4) refining data collection and analysis to improve research decisionmaking. Figures and tables contain breakdowns of various funding trends from the 1960s to the 1990's as well as a projection of cost scenarios for select projects to the year 2005. A final section of the summary reviews possible actions that Congress and the executive branch can take in converging on these issues.

Isa, Northwest Queensland, Australia AN - 50579454; 1991-024182 AB - Surface gravity and magnetic surveys around the giant copper-silver-lead-zinc mine at Mt. Isa in northwest Queensland have shown that each type of mineralization presents characteristic responses which are anomalous within the perspective of the host rocks. The responses reflect the entire mineralization-alteration package and not simply the economic ore.Copper mineralization and associated alteration products, including 'silica dolomite,' are not significantly magnetized, but the mineralization across a depth range of 1000 m produces a positive gravity anomaly of more than 2.5 mGal. The related alteration products are associated with large negative anomalies of up to 8 mGal in both hanging wall and footwall host rocks. Silver-lead-zinc mineralization is moderately magnetic (about 0.001 cgs). It is also denser and shallower and generates larger gravity anomalies. Negative secondary alteration effects, while significant, are equivalent in magnitude to the mineralization effect.Sites mineralized comparably to Mt. Isa would be located by semiregional surveys with a station spacing of 200 to 400 m and survey precision of better than 0.4 mGal, although there are limits to resolution of individual parts of the mineralization.

CRS Report for Congress. AN - 62902666; ED343318 AB - This summary of the Education of the Handicapped Act Amendments of 1990, Public Law 101-476, identifies how these Amendments extend and expand special education research, demonstration, and training programs of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). IDEA authorizes three state formula grant programs and several discretionary grant programs. The basic state grant and preschool state grant are permanently authorized. The infants and toddlers state grant (Part H) is authorized through fiscal year (FY) 1991. The 1990 reauthorization legislation focuses first on increasing opportunities for minorities and the economically and educationally disadvantaged and, second on increasing availability of transition services that help individuals with disabilities move from special education into either further education or work and independent living. Two new grant programs were established: the personnel training grants for Historically Black Colleges and Universities and other minority institutions, and a 5-year competitive state grant program for joint projects to improve transition services. Other provisions of the 1990 Amendments address: the Act's name; eligibility of children with autism and traumatic brain injury for special services under IDEA; the operational definition of Attentional Deficit Disorder; litigation rights; and discretionary grant program process. The Amendments increase authorization levels from $309 million for FY 1991 to $408 million for FY 1994. Each of the eight parts of the Act is summarized: Part A, General Provisions; Part B, Assistance for Education of All Individuals with Disabilities; Part C, Centers and Services to Meet Special Needs of Individuals with Disabilities; Part D, Training Personnel for the Education of Individuals with Disabilities; Part E, Research in the Education of Individuals with Disabilities; Part F, Instructional Media for Individuals with Disabilities; Part G, Technology, Educational Media, and Materials for Individuals with Disabilities; and Part H, Infants and Toddlers with Disabilities.

CRS Report for Congress. AN - 62903683; ED342389 AB - The purpose of this report is to provide an overview of copyright law as it relates to computer software. The computer industry terminology, case law, and software protection by patents and trade secret legislation are examined, and it is argued that the protection of ownership rights of computer software poses major challenges to existing U.S. copyright law--and to proposals to amend existing laws--due to the rapid development of sophisticated computer technology. Software case law is characterized as an evolving area that must be concerned with subtle distinctions and characterizations of elements of computer software. Two possible courses of legislative action are discussed. The first would allow the current state of copyright law to continue without significant amendment, thereby allowing the general body of copyright law to govern software issues. It is noted that with this approach, courts would use existing law to craft appropriate methods to resolve copyright disputes, and would determine the boundaries of software copyright protection. The second course of legislative action would be to develop a new body of law specifically designed to address software issues such as ownership and protection of intellectual property. It is argued that such an approach might create comprehensive legislation to deal with software copyright issues; however, this approach has not yet received support from either the Congress or industry.

A Bill To Provide Financial Assistance to Eligible Local Educational Agencies To Improve Urban Education, and for Other Purposes. 102d Congress, 1st Session. AN - 63007122; ED334300 AB - This document comprises a bill introduced in the U.S. Senate to provide Federal aid to urban schools determined to be most in need of financial assistance. The proposed legislation, which, if enacted is to be called the "Urban Schools of America (USA) Act of 1991," also allocates funds for research in urban education. The purpose of the Act is to accomplish the following: (1) assist urban schools in meeting national education goals; (2) improve the educational and social well-being of urban public school children; (3) close the achievement gap between urban and non-urban school children, while improving the achievement level of all children nationally; (4) renovate and repair urban school buildings and facilities; (5) conduct coordinated research on urban education problems, solutions, and promising practices; (6) improve the nation's global economic and educational competitiveness by improving its urban schools; (7) encourage community, parent, and business collaboration in the improvement of urban schools; and (8) review regulations the simplification of which might improve the achievement of urban school children. The bill includes 18 findings by Congress and is divided into the following major sections: Title I, "Urban School Improvement"; Title II, "School Building Repair and Renovation"; Title III, "Urban School Research"; and Title IV, "General Provisions."

AN - 62885929; ED335465 AB - This document contains oral and written testimony concerning two bills being considered by a U.S. House of Representatives subcommittee to rectify educational and life-disruption problems created by the activation of 200,000 reservists for the Persian Gulf conflict and the transfers of many active military personnel. The texts of the two bills, H.R. 821 and H.R. 1108, are also included in the report. The bills would require schools to reimburse veterans for tuition they had paid for courses they could not finish because they were called up, provide partial loan forgiveness for military personnel who served in the combat zone, and restore GI Bill benefits. Persons providing testimony included representatives of veterans groups, veterans program administrators, and college administrators. Those who testified generally supported the intent of the bills, but objected to some of their provisions. They said that some colleges were providing tuition credits or other benefits instead of refunds to veterans, and other colleges and universities were dealing with veterans on a case-by-case basis. They objected to mandated procedures from the Federal Government on veterans' benefits. They also supported increased educational benefits for veterans in light of increasing education costs.

Federally financed since the late 1960's, the NAEP is a survey of U.S. students' achievment in various subject areas. As an indicator of change in elementary and secondary educational achievement, it has received attention with regard to measuring progress toward the National Education Goals. Until recently, assessments have been conducted for the nation as a whole and by region, but not on a state or local basis. However, a voluntary state demonstration project was authorized for 1990 and 1992 assessments to determine whether valid and reliable data could be obtained at the state level; preliminary information should be available by the summer of 1991. The NAEP was given its statutory basis in 1978, was last amended in 1988, and is presently authorized through 1993. It is currently conducted by the Educational Testing Service under contract with the National Center for Education Statistics. (SLD) AU - Irwin, Paul M.

Attempts to monitor the genetic variation of endangered populations by the use of blood protein electrophoresis often suffer from three drawbacks: a small sample of loci, lack of control populations with "normal" variation, and, sometimes, difficulty in confirming inheritance of electromorphs. An endangered isolate (Hamilton, Victoria) of the eastern barred bandicoot, Perameles gunnii, was compared with a widespread, dense, conspecific population in Tasmania. A previous study of the effective size of the siolate suggested that the loss of variation should be detectable by protein electrophoresis if average heterozygosity (h-) was approximately 0.057 in widespread, dense populations and 20 to 50 individuals from each population were analysed for 25 or more loci. However, no genetic variation was detected within or between samples. Similar studies proposed as a baseline for monitioring genetic variation could be equally powerless to detect changes in variation, even with quite high h- values. The analysis of variation in DNA is expected to avoid many of the problems associated with blood protein studies. This study highlights the importance of a control population. Analysis of the Hamilton population alone might have led us to concludce that the recent population crash has been responsible for the low variation; however, this conclusion is not warranted, because h-= 0 in the much larger Tasmania population.Original Abstract: Resumen: Los intentos para monitorear la variacion genetica en poblaciones amenazadas usando elecroforesis en proteinas sanguineas, sufre frecuentemente de tres desventajas: la muestra de loci es pequeno, falta de poblacion control con variacion "normal" y, aveces, dificultad para confirmar la herencia de los electromorfos. Se comparo una poblacion aislada y en peligro (Hamilton, Victoria) de Perameles gunnii, "Eastern barred bandicoot," con una poblacion coespecifica, densa y ampliamente distribuida en Tasmania. Un estudio previo, sobre el tamano efectivo de al poblacion aislada, sugeria que la perdida de variacion genetica deberia ser detectable usanod electroforesis de proteinas, si es que la heterocigosi promedio (H-) es aproximadamente 0.057 en poblaciones densas y ampliamente distribuidas, y si es que, 25 o mas loci de 20 a 50 individuso de cada poblacion son analizados. sin embargo, no se detecto variacion genetica dentro de las muestras ni entre estas. Estudios similares, propuestos como referencia para el monitoreo de la variacion genetica, podrian resultar igualmente impotentes, para detectar cambios de variacion aun con valores de H- considerablemente altos. Se espera que el analisis de variacion en el DNA evite muchos de los problemas asociados con estudios en proteinas sanguineas. Este estudio remarca la importancia de una poblacion control. El analisis de la poblacion de Hamilton en forma aislada podria habernos guiado a concluir que la reciente disminucion en el numero de individuso en la poblacion fue la causante de la poca variacion; sin embargo, esta conclusion no esta justificada dedido a que H-= 0 en la poblacion mucho mas grande, de Tasmania.

These species, which can affect fish and shellfish farms, pose a serious threat to public health and aquaculture. Among 80 cargo vessels entering Australian ports, 40% contained viable dinoflagellate cysts and 6% carried the cysts of the toxic dinoflagellates Alexandrium catenella and A. tamarense (up to an estimated 300 million cysts per ship). This evidence has been considered sufficiently serious for the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service to develop special ballast water quarantine measures for implementation from February 1, 1990. However, the implications of this potential spreading of toxic algae are global.

N1 - Last updated - 2015-06-16 ER - TY - JOUR T1 - The Aral Sea: Recent limnological changes and their conservation significance AN - 16730524; 3715177 AB - Limnological changes to the Aral Sea, a large saline lake in central Asia, are considered. Important changes include the decreased water-level (c. 15 m), the recession of the shoreline (up to 120 km in places), the exposure of large areas of lake bed, the increased salinity (from c. 10 to 30 g l super(-1)), and the marked alteration in the nature of the lacustrine biota involving decreases in diversity and biomass and the introduction of species. Fish have virtually disappeared from the lake and the diversity of associated bird and wildlife communities has decreased. The major cause of the limnological changes is the diversion of water, mainly for agricultural purposes, from inflowing rivers (the Amu- and Syr-Darya), and, to a lesser degree, species introductions. Limnological changes have been accompanied by changes to regional rivers and terrestrial environments, groundwaters, climate, and to agricultural productivity. It is concluded that four major values of the lake (economic, cultural, scientific, and environmental) have been seriously diminished by recent changes to it. The need to continue limnological studies is stressed. JF - Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems AU - Williams, W D AU - Aladin, N V AD - Dep. Zool., Univ.

AN - 16033356; 2609188 AB - The technique of attaching two tags, rather than one tag, to each fish in a tagging experiment is a well-established means of measuring the extent to which tags are shed, by observing the proportion of recaptured tagged fish that have retained only one tag. This commonly requires as assumption that tag-shedding is a random process which is unaffected by the presence of the other tag on the same fish. In theory, this makes possible an estimate of the unobservable number of caught fish that have shed both tags. This paper examines biases that may follow if data are pooled (sometimes unwittingly) from experiments with different tag-shedding rates. It is found that the bias in tag-shedding estimates, due to pooling, can be lowered markedly by reducing either the rate of shedding and/or variability between experiments in the tagging technique. The proportions of fish recovered in different experiments can sometimes be compared to support (or otherwise) the existence of bias.

AN - 15978844; 2544265 AB - Commercial catch rates for the North West Shelf trap fishery, at up to 10 kg/trap/h, are considerably greater than those reported for similar trap fisheries elsewhere. Two fish-trapping experiments were conducted off Lowendal Island (north-western Australia) to study the catch rates of four trap types (O-, S- and Z-shaped and rotational) and two bait types (pilchard, Sardinops neopilchardus , and emperor, Lethrinus choerorynchus ) over various soak times (ranging from 1 to 24 h). Total catches varied significantly with soak time. Catches increased rapidly for the first 3 h, levelled off, and then decreased steadily to 16 h; there was a slight increase at 24 h. The species composition of the catch did not vary significantly with soak time. There was no significant difference in catch rates between trap types. The traps did not appear to cause fish to die by being confined in the traps for extended periods. A fairly large amount of suitable bait (about 4 kg) was necessary for effective trapping of fish. The catch rates of the pilchard bait were significantly higher than those of the emperor bait. JF - AUST. J. MAR. FRESHWAT. RES.

AN - 15976138; 2546139 AB - Sponge populations on Australia's Great Barrier Reef (GBR) may contain a mix of both phototropic and heterotrophic species. The distribution of many of these sponges on reefs is assumed to be determined by light. A model was developed to investigate how the distribution of phototrophic sponges over depth is restricted by the availability of photosynthetically active radiation. Estimates of the balance between photosynthetic production and the total respiratory demand of entire sponge-communities on Davies Reef (a middle-shelf reef of the Great Barrier Reef) are provided. These estimates are based upon published data for community composition and biomass, whilst photokinetic parameters have been determined for a variety of sponge species from oxygen-exchange measurements. Phototrophic sponges on the fore-reef slope are predicted to exist at or above a state of net 24 h compensation (i.e., photosynthetic oxygen production by sponges balances or exceeds respiration over a 24 h period) to a depth of 30 m. It is proposed that phototrophic sponges are obligate phototrophs because the availability of light for photosynthesis corresponds with the lower depth limit of their distribution.

AN - 15922163; 2510394 AB - Growth, recruitment and mortality rates of a population of giant clams (Tridacna gigas and T. derasa ) were monitored between 1978 and 1985 in a 2 multiplied by 7 ha study area on Michaelmas Reef, Great Barrier Reef. The initial 1978 census revealed the presence of 1166 T. gigas and 44 T. derasa . For T. gigas , the Fabens method provided growth-parameter estimates of L sub( infinity ) = 85 multiplied by 7 cm, K = 0 multiplied by 07 and t sub(0) = 0 multiplied by 732 year. The generated von Bertalanffy growth curve was a relatively poor fit to an empirical growth curve. A better description of growth was obtained for younger clams by using a forced value of L sub( infinity ) = 80 cm, yielding K = 0 multiplied by 105 and t sub(0) = 0 multiplied by 145 year. There was marked variability in the growth rate of individual clams, which has implications for the aquaculture industry. Average annual mortality rates in two census intervals (1978 to 1980-81 and 1980-81 to 1985) were 3 multiplied by 4 and 10 multiplied by 7% respectively. A comparison of the calculated size structure (assuming constant recruitment) with the observed size structure clearly suggested that recruitment was not constant and had declined drastically from a peak in the 1950s.

AN - 15848171; 2451903 AB - The distribution, size composition, sex ratio, reproductive biology and diet of 17 species of shark from the families Triakidae, Hemigaleidae and Carcharhinidae from northern Australia were examined. In most of these species the sex ratio of the embryos is 1:1, whereas in the post-partum populations there were significantly more males than females. The results indicate four broad reproductive strategies among these sharks. In most species reproduction was distinctly seasonal with individual females giving birth each Austral summer (annual cycle) after a gestation period of 9-12 months. A second group had a very similar cycle except that individual females gave birth every second year (biennial cycle). A third group had an annual cycle but breeding was continuous throughout the year, these were mostly small bottom-associated sharks. Diets ranged from omnivorous to highly selective. Fish was an important component of the diet in all but one species. JF - AUST. J. MAR. FRESHWAT. RES. AU - Stevens, J D AU - McLoughlin, K J AD - Div. Fish., CSIRO Mar.

AN - 15837408; 2446270 AB - The authors review some recent studies, emphasizing the application of microbiological and biochemical methods, and discuss some important decisions that must be made in experimental design and implementation. It is recommended that newly fallen, naturally abscissioned leaves, bound in leaf packs and tethered to natural substrata, be used in studies attempting to simulate natural leaf decomposition. Drying and leaching leaves under extreme conditions should be avoided. Mass loss should not simply be equated with decomposition; instead, losses of the main types of chemical constituents of plant litter should be quantified. If the aim is to study decomposition rather than merely leaf breakdown, the metabolism of dissolved matter and fine particulate material lost from the decaying leaf must be addressed as well. Appropriate techniques should be used to study microbial assemblages: lipid biomarkers or nucleic-acid methods for assemblage composition, microscopy or biochemical analysis for microbial biomass, ( super(3)H)-thymidine or ( super(3)H)-leucine methods to determine growth rates.

Testimony was given by officials of the United Auto Workers/General Motors training programs, a Michigan state senator and a state representative, school system and college administrators, an administrator of a program for Spanish-speaking persons, and a foundation official. In their testimony, witnesses described successful state and local programs that have reduced dropout rates. Programs described include Operation Graduation, the Tuition Incentive Program, programs for Spanish-speaking youths and their families, the Flint Community Schools Dropout Intervention Program, and Even Start, which is a literacy program for students and parents. The witnesses stressed that these programs have been successful because they have provided personal intervention for students and special attention to help them in their studies. Witnesses asserted that they could continue to serve youths and increase their services if more federal funds were made available, since some of the programs are presently funded solely by the state, which faces a tight budget and funding cuts.

AN - 63000841; ED332003 AB - A project studied the early labor market experiences of the high school graduates of the class of 1980 who attended proprietary schools. The analysis was based on the "High School and Beyond" survey that followed that class through January 1986. About 9 percent of the 1980 seniors attended proprietary schools, and more than half of them completed their programs. Many proprietary school students enrolled in colleges as well. The study found that the proprietary school students were more like students who attended community colleges or had no education beyond high school than they were like four-year college students. However, they often had higher family socioeconomic status and a stronger orientation toward work. Higher proportions were women and black. The analysis showed that men who attended proprietary schools were no more likely to be employed than men who attended only high school. Although their hourly earnings were higher, this appeared to be due to factors such as social status rather than to their training. Women who attended proprietary schools were more likely to be employed than women who only completed high school, and their hourly earnings were also higher. Although other factors could have affected their earnings, completing proprietary school was at least partly responsible. Students who attended proprietary schools had no more difficulty repaying their loans than college students. Three appendixes include (1) description of the methodology of the study (explaining use of the data from the High School and Beyond Survey, specifying models used for predicting labor market outcomes, and explaining how information on tuition, grants and loans was compiled); (2) a set of 18 tables; and (3) an annotated list of 14 other studies with findings about students who attended proprietary schools.

A proposed explanatory model of the interaction of reading activity at home, family socioeconomic status, attentiveness in class, reading achievement, & attitudes toward reading is discussed in terms of the sample & tested using structural equation modeling. Ss answered questions about their enjoyment & ability to read & the usefulness of literacy. Teachers rated Ss' literacy profiles. Three major findings are reported: positive direct & indirect effects of reading activity at home on Ss' reading achievement that mediated Ss' attitudes toward reading & classroom attentiveness; positive carry-over effects between activities at home & behavior in the classroom; & empirical support for the transfer of benefits gained at home to affect classroom learning.

AN - 62899837; ED345750 AB - A study was conducted by an electronic bulletin board system (BBS) team to explore a variety of approaches to electronic communication between the Government Printing Office's (GPO) Library Programs Service and the depository libraries. After reviewing various dissemination technologies, the BBS team recommended that an electronic bulletin board system become the Federal Depository Library Program's (FDLP) telecommunications vehicle of choice. It also recommended that the FDLP BBS be established by using existing Project Hermes hardware and software, a telecommunications vehicle currently used in the electronic dissemination of Supreme Court slip opinions. This report provides an executive summary, a discussion of the study methodology and study recommendations, descriptions of the FDLP and of the general characteristics of bulletin board systems, and a profile of the FDLP BBS, including its file characteristics and size, usage characteristics, staffing, telecommunications, system configuration options and costs, and an implementation schedule. Concluding the report are a 12-item bibliography, the Depository Library Council recommendations, the names and addresses of the study consultants, suggestions for the BBS file content, and a discussion of alternative dissemination technologies, i.e., online services, electronic mail, fax technology, and direct media dissemination.

Results indicate that differences in family learning environments & children's cognitive performance are more strongly related to ethnicity than to gender or social status, while variations in children's school-related attitudes are associated with differences in ethnicity, gender, & social status. In addition, there are gender & social status differences in profiles of family environment & school outcome scores within different ethnic groups. 1 Table, 2 Figures, 9 References.

X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis of Pb content in bone is a promising approach for obtaining data on individual workers continuously exposed to Pb. XRF data will allow for an accurate definition of dose-response relationships for such long-term consequences of Pb exposure as neurologic impairment, renal disease, hypertension, and possible reproductive dysfunction. Data on bone Pb content could be used to validate models describing the body Pb burden and will allow for a direct assessment of the efficacy of therapeutic chelation. XRF may also allow for an assessment of the role of genetic polymorphism of the enzyme delta -aminolevulinic dehydrase as a determinant of the pharmacokinitecs and toxicity of Pb.

Bone Pb may be a more accurate dosimeter of integrated absorbtion associated with chronic exposures. Bone Pb may be a source of internal exposure to organisms that have amassed the element in skeletal tissue. The remobilization of Pb from bone merits further study. Migration of Pb from bone is likely to occur during periods of altered mineral metabolism. Calcium-related regulatory factors are likely to affect Pb compartmentalization, and Ca metabolism changes drastically in human beings during pregnancy and lactation. Relatively little is known about Pb kinetics during these critical times, but it is likely that bone Pb is mobilized and carried in the bloodstream with potential toxic effects on the fetus and the mother.

Bone Pb levels generally increase with age at rates dependent on exposure. In persons exposed to Pb on the job, the slow decline in blood Pb reflects the long skeletal half-life of the element. Stable isotope ratios reveal details of bone uptake of Pb and subsequent release. The bulk turnover rates are about 2%/yr. Lead approximates calcium, radium, strontium, and other bone seekers, but the rates for each are different. Two approaches are offered for fine quantification of Pb turnover. One involves the study of subjects with known exposures. Changes in the ratios of blood Pb:bone Pb would reflect bone Pb availability. The alternate method uses stable isotope measurements in subjects who have moved from one geographic area to another.

The alternatives examined are the Proposition 65 approach (a 1000-fold uncertainty factor applied to a no-observed-adverse-effect level [NOAEL]), the EPA approach (flexible uncertainty factors applied to a NOAEL), the Benchmark Dose approach (flexible uncertainty factors applied to a dose associated with known reproductive toxicity), and the Quantitative Risk Estimatation approach (using low-dose linear extrapolation and a model of the relationship between sperm count and infertility). Applied to DBCP, these approaches do not lead to substantially different estimates of allowable exposure levels. The approaches, however, have different data requirements and provide different amounts of information on reproductive hazards to risk managers and the public.

The effect of CO exposure was evaluated by measuring the time to develop electrocardiographic changes indicative of ischemia and the subjective measure of time to onset of angina. Results from three randomized, double-blind test visits (i.e., room air, low CO, and high CO) were compared. The three exposures resulted in proportionate increases in postexercise carboxyhemoglobin levels. Approximate decreases of 5% and 12% during development of ischemia occurred after the two increasing exposures to CO. Similar hastening occurred in the onset of angina after exposure to CO. A strong dose-response relationship was found. These findings show that low doses of CO produce significant effects on cardiac function during exercise in subjects with coronary artery disease.

LXRF was used to quantify lead in tibial cortical bones of Pb-toxic children sequentially, following one to two courses of chelation therapy. The clinical research design was based on a longitudinal assessment of 59 untreated Pb-toxic children. Using LXRF and blood Pb measurements to predict CaNa sub(2) EDTA outcomes, the specificity and sensitivity of the predictors were 86% and 93%. The data suggest that LXRF measurements of Pb in bone could replace the CaNa sub(2)EDTA test. LXRF could provide a more suitable end point of chelation therapy than the conventional scales for measuring blood Pb and erythrocyte protoporphyrin concentration. Elevated bone Pb values accrued during early childhood may have an intergenerational effect, as maternal Pb amassed during childhood crosses the placenta to affect the developing fetus.

Skeletal development and regulation of skeletal mass are discussed in terms of the four types of cells: osteoblasts, lining cells, osteoclasts, and osteocytes. Systemic components are considered, including parathyroid hormone, calcitonin, cytokines, and growth factors. Pb intoxication alters many aspects of bone cell function, including changing levels of circulating hormones, degrading the ability of bone cells to respond to hormonal regulation, and impairing the ability of cells to secrete collagen and other bone-matrix components. Compartmental analysis shows that distribution and behavior of intracellular Pb in osteoblasts and osteoclasts is similar to several other cell types.

College students (N = 16) listened to monaurally presented pure tones (1,000, 1,040, & 1,080 hertz) & dichotically presented tone pairs (1,000 hertz to one ear & 1,040 or 1,080 hertz to the other), & made magnitude estimates of their loudness. Results showed that all monaural & dichotic loudness functions approximate power functions of sound pressure, & that the horizontal separation between these functions is about 10 decibels.

It will scrutinize, build upon, andextend procedures previously developed at the Connecticut ChemosensoryClinical Research Center (CCCRC). The first part of the project willaddress issues of olfactory and trigeminal sensitivity in normal personsand in persons previously found to be hyposmic or anosmic. One experimentwill chart sensitivity to four odorants in order to decide whether or notonly one odorant will suffice to gauge sensitivity clinically. Anotherexperiment will examine the distribution of both the absolute threshold fornasal irritation and sensitivity to a reflex (transitory apnea) triggeredby irritation. Knowledge of sensitivity to irritation can help decidewhether olfactory deficits are sometimes accompanied by deficits of thecommon chemical sense. The current psychophysical procedures of the CCCRCwill receive attention in tests of reliability and in comparisons among theCCCRC tests and those used in other clinics. The research will extend tomeans of diagnosing types of hyposmia, parosmia, and malingering. Specificexperiments here will address the relation between threshold andsupra-threshold intensity perception in normal and hyposmic persons;quality discrimination and identification of odorous substances on both theinhalation and exhalation phases of the breathing cycle in normal,hyposmic, and parosmic persons; and smell-taste confusions in normal,anosmic, and 'malingering' persons. An investigation of how odor qualitydiscrimination and odor identification vary with perceived intensity willprovide information on the means to choose items for clinical tests of odoridentification and will provide a theoretical rationale for such tests.

Report Made by the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations of the Committee on Governmental Affairs United States Senate. AN - 63005756; ED332631 AB - This report on abuses in federal student aid programs, particularly the Guaranteed Student Loan Program (GSLP), is based on information gathered by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations in the course of its overall investigation and the testimony and exhibits received during the course of hearings held between February and October, 1990. The hearings, taking place over 8 days, involving nearly 50 witnesses, and dealing with the overall GSLP status, were organized around case studies, specifically: The American Career Training Corporation of Pompano Beach, Florida; The Culinary School of Washington, D.C.; and the collapse of the First Independent Trust Company of Sacramento, California. This investigation was prompted by a large volume increase in the program, a dramatic increase in loan defaults, and reports of waste, fraud and abuse within the GSLP. In four sections the following topics are addressed: the nature and extent of the program (GSLP growth, business over education, industry profits, problem schools, students as victims); the existence of serious problems at all levels (school practices, state licensure, accreditation, financial players); the dismal record of the U.S. Department of Education (failures to monitor eligibility and certification, accrediting agency recognition, financial player regulation/oversight, administration/management, enforcement). A final section offers findings, conclusions, and recommendations.

It also considers some possible alternative federal policies concerning student aid that the 102nd Congress may wish to consider as it goes about reauthorizing the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended. The chapters contained in the report respond to the following areas of interest: (1) how student aid is awarded; (2) which students receive aid; (3) the amount of aid undergraduates receive; (4) what the net cost is of postsecondary education to the students and their families; and (5) the policy issues for the awarding of student aid. Appendices include the 1987 National Postsecondary Student Aid Study data base, and basic and supplemental tables on student aid. A glossary is also included.

AN - 62996284; ED333529 AB - Statements, prepared statements, letters, and supplementary materials presented at a field hearing on a parental choice program in Milwaukee, Wisconsin are compiled in this report. Under the "Choice" Program, the state pays $2,440 for each of a limited number of K-12 pupils residing in the City of Milwaukee, Wisconsin to attend nonsectarian, private schools located in the city. Eligibility is limited to pupils whose total family income does not exceed 175% of the federal poverty level. The state public aid to Milwaukee schools is reduced for each student participating in the "Choice" program. Testimonies and prepared statements were offered by various educational administrators and parent, teacher, and interest groups. Arguments against the proposal are that it detracts from educational reform and establishes two classes of education. Proponents argue that it offers high-quality, individual learning and smaller class sizes. A summary of the Milwaukee choice plan and a copy of the Wisconsin Administrative Code on Educational Approval Board are included.

A researcher on rural development reported findings that deregulation policies had removed incentives for telecommunications companies to serve rural areas, and that government assistance in rural telecommunications development would be necessary for rural areas to have equal access to information services and to compete in the national economy. Testimony by Congressmen and representatives of telecommunications companies and federal and state regulatory agencies discussed: (1) competition versus monopoly in public utilities, and the effects of each on the consumer; (2) the Rural Electrification Administration's Telephone Loan Program and rural cooperatives; (3) improving rural educational opportunities through telecommunications technology; (4) regulation of cable television companies; (5) the conditions under which rural customers receive telecommunications services; and (6) specific recommendations for legislation. An extensive presentation by Bell Atlantic describes how a public broadband network integrating audio, visual, and computer technologies could affect the everyday lives of future American consumers.

It also describes his frustration at the rationing of braille reading materials at the school, and how his enormous appetite for reading material led him to "beat" the school's system. It examines how the scarcity of braille and talking books only increased his love of reading. In conclusion, it observes that the blind of the United States have grown strong through the power of collective action while libraries have also grown strong through a network of service and the meeting of a need,and urges the two groups to work together in a growing partnership to strengthen library services for the blind.

AN - 62906077; ED341394 AB - A free national library service providing recorded and braille materials is administrated by the National Library Service (NLS) for the Blind and Physically Handicapped in the Library of Congress. With the cooperation of authors and publishers who grant permission to use copyrighted books, NLS selects and produces full-length books and magazines in braille and on audiodisk and cassette. The reading materials are then distributed to a cooperating network of 56 regional and 91 subregional libraries that circulate them to eligible borrowers by postage-free mail. In the first section of the directory, the NLS network libraries and machine-lending agencies are arranged alphabetically by state. Each entry includes the library's address, telephone and FAX numbers, operating hours, name of contact librarian, a thumbnail description of the collection, and information on assistive devices and special services offered as well as on the library's own publications. Within each state the regional library appears first, followed by subregional libraries listed alphabetically by city. In several states two regional libraries have been established; in these instances, the specific service area of each library is shown. Regional libraries that also function as machine-lending agencies are identified by an asterisk. Separate machine-lending agencies (if any) are listed as the final entry for a state. The directory's second section is devoted to additional library resources available from 15 private organizations (e.g., the Braille Association of Kansas, Inc.), which are arranged alphabetically by the name of the organization. These entries provide information on eligibility requirements, special media, subject coverage, and the organization's lending policies. Two appendixes, which make up more than a third of this publication, provide statistics on the readership and circulation, budgets, staff, and collections of the NLS network libraries.

Witnesses said that there is concern about lack of oversight and fraud in the program, but that audits have found the actual incidence of fraud to be very small. Witnesses also stressed that the program has been successful and that more complicated government regulations could do more harm than good. Changes were suggested to allow the program to serve more than the "cream" of the eligible population, and additional funding was proposed to expand JTPA services to more than the 5 percent that are presently being served. More stringent and specific performance standards were also advocated.

AN - 62837088; ED360040 AB - This monograph presents the proceedings of the first National Institute on Drug Abuse technical review related to the conduct of controlled studies on prenatal exposure to drugs of abuse. Papers in the monograph are categorized by session. The first session (two papers) focused on the detection and quantification of prenatal drug exposure in infants, including studies of the effects of smoking and of pharmacokinetic correlates of fetal drug exposure. The second session (three papers) explored assessments of pregnancy outcomes, including discussions of the implications of previous research methodologies on future research; definitional problems in cocaine research; and the use of birth defect monitoring programs for assessing the effects of maternal substance abuse. Assessment of the status of the newborn, including studies on neurobehavioral organization, cardiorespiratory functioning, and brain development, was considered in the four papers presented in the third session. The fourth session (three papers) offered a framework for measuring drug-induced physical and behavioral delays and abnormalities, including both clinical and psychophysiologic perspectives. The next two sessions (with two and three papers respectively) focused on specific types of behavioral delays and abnormalities, covering cardiac and respiratory control, endocrine function, monoamine systems, behavioral development, nonhuman primate models, learning and cognition, and social and emotional development. The final session focused on tracking drug effects over the lifespan, and includes three papers on research challenges for following exposed infants into childhood, patterns of growth and development in narcotic-exposed children, and the integrity of psychopathology diagnoses across the lifespan. Each session concluded with a discussion paper highlighting study findings, methodological issues, and research problems and needs. (AC) AU - Kilbey, Marlyne M.

The Report of Phase One of a Research Project. AN - 62628426; ED396179 AB - A national advisory group of the Canadian Congress for Learning Opportunities for Women (CCLOW) developed a proposal for an exploratory research project examining how gender and the power balance of male-female relationships affect women's access to/experience of literacy programs. A researcher was selected to conduct the following project activities: visit four communities across Canada and converse with women in literacy programs in each community; report the findings of the visits; develop research questions and a methodology for a long-term national action research project that would be conducted in partnership with a variety of programs; and develop a proposal for the subsequent phase of the project. The researcher synthesized the results of her conversations into 21 interconnected themes. After analyzing those themes, CCLOW agreed to sponsor a second phase of the study. The proposed study was to be a participatory study in which two women from each of several programs across Canada would participate in training workshops and examined the effects of literacy programs on their lives and vice versa. (Appended are the following: discussion of CCLOW's mission/activities; and profiles of the members of CCLOW's national advisory committee and project researcher. Contains 117 references.

AN - 61237945; 91X8353 AB - A report on an experimental study of the effects of artificial bright light on the circadian rhythms of 2 male students, with focus on the effects of two patterns on variable shift work: squashing quickly shifts circadian rhythms within 12 hours via the use of bright light over the temperature minimum to decrease amplitude, while nudging, a more moderate approach, aims bright light at the delay portion of the phase response curve, with progressive applications of light later to encourage oscillation. It is concluded that the squash technique produces a more rapid phase shift, at the expense of greater subject fatigue & mood upheaval, while the nudge is more constantly fatigue producing, yet requires longer to produce the phase shift. 4 Figures, 65 References.

The second section highlights some promising psychological procedures for cross cultural assessment. The last section incorporates a summary and conclusion along with recommendations for improving the quality of psychological assessment in refugee programs.

Prevention programs based on public mental health principles are needed for refugees, but few exist, and none have been evaluated empirically to determine if they lower rates of illness or other psychosocial problems. This chapter explores the traditional impediments to the development of prevention programming for refugees and describes public mental health strategies that could be used in refugee mental health. A necessary step towards the development of prevention programs is the recognition that a substantial body of knowledge exists about the refugee experience and its mental health implications.

Two reviews have surveyed efforts to employ psychological treatment approaches with Asian Americans and Southeast Asian Americans. Most of these reviews and theoretical efforts have focused upon issues believed to influence efforts to adopt psychological treatment methods with culturally diverse individuals. This chapter takes a different focus in its exploration of how several treatment approaches, demonstrated to be effective in Western countries, might be applied with refugee clients. Four clinical intervention strategies (crisis intervention, cognitive behavioral therapy, dynamic individual "relationship oriented" therapy, and family and marital therapy) were chosen because their assumptions and techniques were considered applicable, with modification, with culturally different and troubled populations such as Southeast Asian, Hispanic, and other refugees. Prior to discussing these four approaches of intervention, we will review some general issues pertaining to refugee psychotherapy.

These guidelines and principles would not only be useful for clinicians who often have to work simultaneously with refugee patients from divergent backgrounds, but they also ensure that experiences and knowledge gained from working with each wave of refugees can be accumulated and made transferable to others; thus real progress in the field can be made, and the "reinventing of the wheel" can be minimized. In the following, I will attempt to summarize existing relevant literature. Since research in cross-cultural psychiatry and on the adaptation of refugees provide the foundations for the establishment of such guidelines and principles, they will be discussed first. These will then be followed by a brief summary of practical considerations in evaluating and treating patients with refugee experiences. Finally, important issues still awaiting clarification will be elaborated.

In preparing this overview, I have drawn upon academic reviews of this issue on some empirical research programs and on reports of recent consultations among refugee mental health personnel. My focus is to describe methods for facilitating acculturation, social integration and psychosocial rehabilitation of refugees, and to suggest guidelines and procedures for acculturation, social adjustment, and primary prevention of psychiatric disorder and maladjustment among refugees.

Culturally sensitive approaches described here include such elements as bilingual workers (a personnel type). These approaches are not unique to refugees; they may apply to a range of cross-language and cross-cultural services. Many approaches involve typical mental health services, such as psychotropic medication and psychological testing, which must be employed in a culturally sensitive fashion. Certain technologies (especially in assessment and treatment) demand refugee sensitive services, since refugees share certain psychodynamics and sociodynamics, and have greater-than-expected rates of certain adjustment disorders, psychopathologies, and social problems.

No unique or radical departures from established clinical practice are needed. By the same token, several elements of standard care have special relevance for many refugee patients. These include cross cultural assessment, ascertaining the presence of delusions in the cross cultural context, care of the victimized patient, assessment of the somatizing patient, and the special challenges of the paranoid patient. None of these topics is specific to refugee populations. However, clinicians serving refugees encounter these special issues with much greater frequency than in other clinical populations. Competence in these areas, as well as comfort in working with them, are absolutely essential.

The first occurs prior to flight, when refugees bear both the stressors that lead to their decision to flee and the difficulties associated with making the actual decision. The second period, the period of flight, begins with the onset of flight and lasts until final resettlement in a new and permanent homeland. For some, this may be a relatively short period of time lasting days or weeks; for others, it involves years of waiting and frustration in refugee camps. The third period is that of resettlement. Each of these periods is associated with the experience of certain stressors. In this chapter, the particular stressors encountered during the three periods will be identified and discussed.

My main focus in this chapter is on the psychiatric services needed for the more impaired refugee. This chapter describes the barriers that refugees experience in receiving psychiatric services, the basic issues that programs must address to meet refugees' mental health needs, and the staff and program content needed for an effective program. I will suggest how such programs may be practically implemented in various settings: medical centers, psychiatric hospitals, and mental health clinics. My experiences at the Oregon Health Sciences University, where a psychiatric program for Southeast Asian refugees has been in place for 11 years, will be used to illustrate the various approaches to providing these services.

AN - 21357519; 7711605 AB - Combustion sampling for toxicological assessment often requires that large (greater than 100 mg) lots of complex organic mixtures of wide volatility range be rapidly recovered from high temperature gases without contamination. A new sampler, meeting these criteria for studies of public health interest, has been developed and demonstrated. The device provides high sampling rates and intimate contacting of the samples stream with large volumes of a well-cooled, liquid solvent, dichloromethane (DCM). This promotes rapid organics dissolution from carrier gas and particulates and prompt dilution and quenching of the resulting solution, resulting in high organics collection efficiencies with minimal DCM losses. Solvent separation then remits large quantities of concentrated organics for chemical analysis and toxicological testing. One- to seven-hour interrogations of in-flame, post-flame, and flue gas regions gave 50- to 250-mg yields of complex organic mixtures. In side-by-side sampling of combustion exhaust, the DCM sampler provided higher yields of DCM solubles (identified with complex organic mixtures) and of S. typhimuirim mutagens (active without exogenous metabolizing agents) than did a filter/polymeric sorbent bed sampling train. The new sampler also collects polar and high volatile hydrocarbons such as benzaheyde, pentadiyne, m- and p-diethynyl-benzene, and 1-hexen-3,5-diyne. Nitration of naphthalene and pyrene in DCM solution (1 mg/mL each) was less than 1 part in 10(7) after a 345-min exposure to a bubbling flow of moist N2/air mixture (1:1 v/v) containing 107 ppm NO and 1.5 ppm NO2, indicating that for these condition a DCM sampler should resist artifactual nitration of aromatics. However, because of the very high bacterial mutagenicity of some nitroaromatics and the wide range of sampling conditions of environmental interest, nitration and all artifacts must still be scrutinized when using the DCM sampler. The DCM sampler is expected to contribute to public health impact assessments by facilitating detailed determinations of the identities, compositions, concentrations, sources, formation mechanisms, and biological activity of environmental toxicants in gaseous atmospheres.

Implementation of an effluent reuse scheme will not always lead to a reduction in total costs to the community. Where existing water supply systems have relatively large proportions of spare source and transmission capacity, implementation of effluent reuse for municipal purposes may result in greater overall costs. Effluent reuse produces significant cost benefits where it enables deferment of major capital expenditure for either water source, water supply infrastructure, or sewerage treatment works augmentation. Effluent reuse for commercial horticulture has good immediate potential but crop and soil management, particularly in arid areas, is important to ensure the sustainability of this option. Accurate cost analysis, management, and reporting systems must be developed to ensure alternative water sources are compared on an equal basis. This will assist government in setting priorities for adoption of reuse projects, which while not financially attractive, may result in public benefits such as improved public health, increased environmental protection, or more employment opportunities. Planning for reuse must incorporate a flexible approach to funding arrangements, careful siting of sewage treatment works, measures to protect the quality of effluent, and a thorough understanding of the factors to which the sustainability of effluent reuse is sensitive.

A study of the hydrogeology of the lake basin was undertaken in an attempt to clarify the processes involved in the interaction of the groundwater and surface water systems. Groundwater in the catchment is mainly of low salinity, but high salinity groundwater is evident beneath the lake bed. Porewater analyses reveal a salinity profile in a clay aquitard beneath the lake bed that has the characteristics of diffusion but is also influenced by mixing with: (a) lake waters infiltrating downwards, and (b) groundwater rising upwards under pressure. Creek water and catchment groundwaters are fresh to brackish while lake water is alkaline. Varying ionic concentrations in these waters are the result of evaporative concentration and precipitation of carbonate minerals. Hydrochemical evolutionary pathways are different for groundwaters and surface waters. In surface waters, dolomite and calcite saturation is achieved early, but these waters are undersaturated with gypsum. In the groundwaters, saturation with dolomite and calcite is achieved early but equilibrium relationships are more complex. Shallow groundwaters show evidence of mixing with infiltrating lake waters, and this has retarded mineral precipitation. The deeper saline groundwaters are close to saturation with gypsum. Stable isotope data also indicate mixing occurring below the lake bed between evaporated lake waters infiltrating downwards and saline groundwaters under upwards pressure.

Laboratory leaching experiments for measuring dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) release from chicken manure showed that nitrogen was released as ammonia-N, which was rapidly lost from the manure and leveled off at about 6 mg NH sub(4)-N/g dry weight chicken manure after 4-5 days. Allochthonous DIN input from both chicken manure fertilization and almost daily source-water additions ranged from 0.055 to 0.142 g N/m super(2)/day. Source water contributed more nitrogen than manure in all but the highest fertilization treatment.

Transduction and mixed-culture transfer experiments demonstrated that the 4.4-kb plasmid (pWBG632) encoded resistance to tetracycline and the 23.8-kb plasmid (pWBG628) encoded resistance to cadmium, benzyl penicillin, kanamycin, neomycin and streptomycin. The conjugative plasmid pWBG637 was able to mobilise a further 4.4-kb plasmid (pWBG633) encoding streptomycin resistance and recombined with the multiresistance plasmid pWBG628 to produce transconjugants of various resistance phenotypes.

The best culture medium for CH activity of shigellae was tryptic soy broth, and for EIEC it was casamino acid-yeast extract broth with 1 mM CaCl sub(2). CH production by all species was best at the slightly alkaline pH which is optimal for growth; it was also dependent on the presence of a large (140-Mda) plasmid. Pre-treatment of bacteria with homologous antisera inhibited CH activity. Various treatments of bacterial cells and RBCs suggested that CH may be a protein molecule, and that a chitotriose-like moiety may serve as CH receptor. RBCs that were incubated with bacteria at 4 degree C, or with heat-killed bacteria at 37 degree C, were not lysed; also, isolated cell-surface components (lipopolysaccharide and outer-membrane protein) did not lyse RBCs. This suggests that metabolically active cells are required for CH activity. Production of CH by both EIEC and shigellae is consistent with a common mechanism for the virulence of these organisms.

However, more bacteria were retained by tissue immersed in suspensions for 30 min compared with tissue immersed only transiently (ca 15 s) and no significant difference in retention of either test strain used was noted for suspensions prepared in distilled water or physiological saline. Differences in numbers of bacteria retained were correlated with water induced changes in tissue microtopography. By comparison, addition of sodium or magnesium ions (present as chlorides) in concentrations greater than 0.2 mol/l, caused significant reductions in retention. Furthermore, optimal retention of both strains occurred at a pH of ca 7. Cells of the test strains used did not attach to collagen fibres associated with fascia when suspension media other than distilled water were used. Treatment of tissue with cetyl pyridinium chloride prevented water induced changes in fascia microtopography and also reduced the number of bacteria retained. On the basis of the experimental data it was concluded that retention is probably a function of the amount of water loosely bound by the connective tissue of fascia.

Results showed that PHB was utilized during darkness, when bacteroids were deprived of host-stored energy sources. Deprivation was induced by stem-girdling or by competition from rapidly growing seeds. It is proposed that utilization of PHB sustains the O sub(2) demand of the bacteroids during darkness, thus contributing to preservation of nodule activity and the continuation of N sub(2) fixation at high rates until the last stages of seed development.

AN - 16727854; 3507130 AB - As in mammalian livestock production, growth promotants can improve total weight gain and food conversion efficiency in farmed fish. If fish larvae respond in a similar fashion, the batch time could be significantly reduced in the hatchery phase, increasing production and reducing time of exposure to a high mortality phase of culture. Using post-hatching zebrafish, Brachydanio rerio, as a model, a preliminary study is underway to test the activity of recombinant porcine somatotrophin (PST) delivered either by immersion or orally via live brine shrimp Artemia. Radioimmune assays confirm that immunologically active PST, mixed first with fish oil then emulsified, can be encapsulated in large amounts by Artemia which are then fed to the fish. Evidence for biological activity of PST in this species and implications for other larvae are discussed. JF - Special Publication, European Aquaculture Society. 1991.

Thus, the study evaluates a small, but highly visible, subset of the many possible applications of bioremediation technologies to environmental problems. Among the other applications for which bioremediation is being considered or is currently in use are: (1) treatment of nontoxic liquid and solid wastes; (2) treatment of toxic or hazardous wastes; (3) treatment of contaminated groundwater, and (4) grease decomposition. Although recent marine oil spills and bioremediation efforts have called attention to the potential of bioremediation as an oil spill response technology, some of the other applications, in particular the treatment of hazardous waste, appear to have greater potential. Officials at approximately 135 hazardous waste sites, for example, are now either considering, planning, or operating full-scale bioremediation systems.

AN - 16717940; 3510308 AB - This paper reviews the findings of experimental and laboratory research to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to support a uniform 0.05% blood alcohol concentration (BAC) as the legal limit for driving. Statistically significant and meaningful decrements in driving-related performance were identified at 0.05% BAC or below in many studies. Younger and inexperienced drinkers and drivers appear to be a greatest risk for alcohol-related traffic crashes. It is concluded that on scientific grounds, there is support for setting the legal limit at 0.05%. The setting of a uniform 0.05% BAC statutory limit should be but one effort within a comprehensive approach including other legal, social, behavioural and environmental strategies to deal with the drink driving problem.

All three have significant sources in the soil-plant environment and principal sinks in the atmosphere or the oceans. The emphasis is on methodological problems associated with measuring source and sink strengths, but the biogeochemistry of individual gases and problems of scaling to longer times and larger areas are addressed also. Nitrous oxide accounts for some 6% of predicted greenhouse warming. Its atmospheric concentration is 315 ppbv and is increasing at 0.25% per year. The principal sink appears to be destruction through photochemical processes in the stratosphere. The main causes of the N sub(2)O increase are thought to be biomass burning, fossil fuel combustion processes, and what now seem to be substantial emissions from soils associated with increased nitrogen inputs, irrigation and tropical land clearing. Uncertainty about the strengths of the soil sources is due largely to our reliance on enclosure techniques for flux measurement, and the lack of appropriate scaling procedures. Methane now accounts for 18% of anticipated greenhouse warming. Its atmospheric concentration is 1.7 ppmv and is increasing at 1% per year. Its greenhouse effect seems likely to increase over the next 50 years. The biggest sink appears to be oxidation in the atmosphere, but some oxidation occurs in soils as well. The main sources are rice fields, wetlands, biomass burning, ruminants, land fills, natural gas production, and coal mining. As for N sub(2)O, there is much uncertainty about individual source strengths and there are urgent needs for better measurement and scaling techniques. Increased CO sub(2) concentrations account for 49% of the greenhouse effect. The present atmospheric CO sub(2) concentration is 350 ppmv, increasing at 0.4% per year. Over 80% of the increase is due to fossil fuels, and the rest to deforestation and biomass burning. Atmospheric fluxes of CO sub(2) can be measured much more precisely than those of N sub(2)O and CH sub(4), by micrometeorological techniques, but the scaling problem still remains. The largest known sink for CO sub(2) is the oceans, but recent calculations point to a large 'missing' sink for CO sub(2), which may be as yet unidentified sequestering processes in terrestrial ecosystems.

AN - 16658873; 3019076 AB - In this study the ability of strains of Shigella dysenteriae serotype 1 to agglutinate mammalian erythrocytes is attributed to the polysaccharide fraction of bacterial-cell lipopolysaccharide (LPS). LPS obtained from a rough, mutant strain of S. dysenteriae serotype 1, lacking the O-antigen polysaccharide side-chain, did not agglutinate erythrocytes, clearly demonstrating a link between O-antigen polysaccharides and haemagglutinating activity (HA). Strains of S. dysenteriae serotype 1 adhered well to cultured Henle Intestinal 407 cells, whereas rough strains adhered poorly. Pre-treatment of bacteria with LPS-specific antisera inhibited both HA and binding to cultured human-intestinal cells.

At physiological concentrations, ATP, ADP, and AMP all inhibit the enzyme from Atriplex spongiosa) and Panicum miliaceum (NAD-ME-type plants), with ATP the most inhibitory species. The degree of inhibition is greater with subsaturating levels of activator, malate, and Mn super(2+). NAD-malic enzyme from Urochloa panicoides (PCK-type) is activated by ATP (up to 10-fold) and inhibited by ADP and AMP.

AN - 16610595; 3032961 AB - In the absence of antimicrobial therapy, bacteria such as Bacteroides fragilis, Escherichia coli and Proteus mirabilis may persist within an intra-abdominal abscess in the presence of large numbers of neutrophils which, under optimal conditions in vitro, can readily phagocytose and kill the same bacterial strains. Neutrophils taken from abscesses induced by gram-negative bacteria such as those above contain viable organisms. On incubation in vitro in the presence of serum, these neutrophils kill the bacteria phagocytosed in the abscess poorly, if at all, yet can readily kill organisms added in vitro. To determine possible mechanisms that might explain this, we examined the bactericidal activity in vitro of neutrophils from a range of abscesses induced by one or two species of bacteria plus an abscess-potentiating agent, bran. The organisms studied were B. fragilis, E. coli, P. mirabilis and Staphylococcus aureus . The killing in vitro of E. coli and P. mirabilis , engulfed within an abscess, was significantly less than that of the same organisms when they were added to the in-vitro assay. In contrast, the killing of S. aureus was similar, whether engulfed in vivo or in vitro. However, S. aureus was less susceptible to phagocytosis and killing in vitro than P. mirabilis or E. coli , and the killing of S. aureus during in-vitro incubation of neutrophils that had engulfed the organism within the abscess was similar to that of the gram-negative bacteria engulfed within the abscess. We examined whether organisms phagocytosed in vivo were within neutrophils which had diminished or no expression of cell surface Fc and C3 receptors, and might, therefore, be unresponsive to extracellular serum factors such as complement which stimulate intracellular killing. No population of neutrophils lacking CR3 complement receptors was detected. Furthermore, the expression of these receptors was enhanced on abscess neutrophils compared with peripheral blood neutrophils. Fc gamma RII receptor expression was equivalent in the two populations. Extracellular serum was necessary for any abscess neutrophil bactericidal activity. To determine whether the bacteria within abscess neutrophils were a subpopulation selected for resistance to intracellular killing, we lysed the neutrophils and added the released bacteria to bactericidal assays with peritoneal exudate neutrophils. The bacteria were killed readily, but not as efficiently as log-phase organisms grown in vitro. As these studies have shown that neutrophils from abscesses are functional, with enhanced CR3 expression, and that bacteria persisting within abscesses are not resistant to intracellular killing, it is possible that the poor killing in vitro of bacteria engulfed in vivo by abscess neutrophils reflects depleted intracellular killing mechanisms in those particular neutrophils, or results from the phagocytosis of organisms under conditions prevailing within abscesses, or is due to as yet undefined bacterial virulence factors.

In a preliminary discussion, processes at canopy scale are reviewed briefly by outlining two classes of model: comprehensive, multilayer Canopy-Atmosphere Models (CAMs) which attempt to include all physical and biological processes influencing the canopy microclimate and atmospheric exchanges, and single-layer Simplified Canopy-Atmosphere Models (SCAMs) which attempt a physically acceptable description of energy partition with the fewest possible parameters. Details of four-parameter SCAM are outlined. It is suggested that CAMs are necessary for understanding the 'downward' influence of climate on a canopy, but that SCAMs may be useful in modelling the 'upward' influence of vegetation on climate with GCMs. The main part of the paper considers the generalisation of land-surface models from homogeneous to flat, heterogeneous terrain in which local advection is prominent. The approach is to model the planetary boundary layer as well as the surface layer. A simple mixed-layer model is outlined for the daytime convective boundary layer (CBL). Boundary conditions for sensible and latent heat transfer at the ground are made separable by defining two new conserved scalar variables, a total energy content and a linearized saturation deficit. A new analytic solution of the energy partition problem is developed for the case of an encroaching CBL with the depth h proportional to the square root of time. The general model, with this analytic solution as a particular case, is then extended from homogeneous to heterogeneous surfaces by defining a CBL horizontal length scale X = hU/w sub(*) (where U is the horizontal velocity and w sub(*) the convective velocity scale). When individual terrain patches have scales much less than X, the inhomogeneity is microscale and is averaged out by the CBL itself; mesoscale inhomogeneity occurs when patches have scales much greater than X, leading to separate CBL development over each patch. The CBL equations yield a statement of the partition of surface sensible and latent heat fluxes among the surface patches in a heterogeneous landscape, and averaging operators for surface properties.

We have constructed a set of plasmid vectors which have the thyA gene of Escherichia coli (encoding thymidylate synthetase) as the marker for selection and maintenance of plasmid clones. The thyA system offers an alternative to antibiotic-resistance selection markers. It can be easily adapted to a particular host-vector combination since thyA chromosomal mutations can be readily introduced by trimethoprim selection. We also describe the construction of thyA-based plasmids with the Vibrio cholerae rfb genes (encoding O-antigen biosynthesis of the Inaba serotype). These have been found to be useful in the construction of candidate bivalent cholera-typhoid vaccines.

Patterns of resistance and racial variation in a large host population. AN - 16447729; 2910625 AB - Populations of wild flax, Linum marginale , and its associated rust fungus Melampsora lini growing at Kiandra, New South Wales, Australia, were sampled during the 1986-1987 growing season. Thirteen different races of M. lini were detected in a sample of 96 isolates. The distribution of isolates was uneven: race A comprised 73% of the samples; race N, 8%; and race H, 5%; while the remaining races were represented by only one or two samples. The dominance of race A increased over the course of the growing season, comprising 67% of the early season samples and increasing to 78% for those collected late in the season. The overall diversity of the pathogen population decreased late in the growing season, but this trend was not statistically significant. The average virulence of individual isolates of the pathogen population increased during the growing season. This trend was most pronounced among the minor races, where the mean number of differential hosts infected increased from 4.58 for early season samples to 5.12, and 5.08 for mid and late season samples, respectively.

AN - 16386302; 2872999 AB - Climate change will have significant impacts on protected areas and their management. These include loss of community and ecosystem types which are at climatic limits, change in proportion of community types from climatic and landform changes, and loss of biological diversity. It is possible that novel communities will become established, following a sorting of indigenous species mixtures and the establishment of exotic species. For conservation managers, it will be essential to use a landscape ecological framework to monitor changes and design remedial measures. Particular attention should be given to boundary, barrier, and corridor elements of ecological infrastructure. Monitoring of biota will be an important aspect of climate change detection, especially over the 20-50 year timeframe.

AN - 16379018; 2879947 AB - The safety and short-term effectiveness of home detoxification (HD) was investigated by contrasting rates of treatment completion and of complications of 41 service users with those of a retrospectively matched inpatient comparison group. The latter comprised patients of a detoxification unit matched for age, sex and degree of alcohol dependence with HD subjects. HD subjects had severe problems with alcohol-they averaged 28.7 on the SADQ, 4.6 serious alcohol-related problems in the previous 2 months, a GGT of 123.8 and 174.6 reported units of alcohol consumed in the week before treatment. A high follow-up rate was achieved for both HD subjects and their relatives; there was close agreement between clients' reports, carers' reports and breathalyser readings with regard to further alcohol consumption. The HD subjects were visited at home an average of 6.9 times over 6.15 days. Chlormethiazole was prescribed in 36 cases at an average daily dose of 6.3 capsules - significantly fewer than for the inpatient group. JF - ALCOHOL ALCOHOLISM.

Results indicated that parental alcoholism in addition to creating an adverse family environment had an effect on the relative for maladjustment in the offspring (as measured by scores on the Child Behavior Checklist). Although previous studies have reported higher levels of externalizing behaviors in children of alcoholics, an increased risk for internalizing symptoms was observed in the children studied.

The Symposium provides an opportunity to look back at these studies and to formulate some methodological and general comments. Success of fisheries management is often jeopardized because change is implemented in a dictatorial way and hindered by bureaucratic slowness as well as technocratic reasoning. Beneficiaries of change are themselves frequently torn between old-fashioned and now inappropriate behaviours and up-to-date ones which have more the appearance of modernity than its real deeper significance. The above-mentioned studies are perhaps useful insofar as they contribute to untangling relationships that are becoming more frequent and more complex.

AN - 16300311; 2812880 AB - Vibrio cholerae is known to secrete DNase(s) into the extracellular environment. These proteins have been thought to be responsible for the difficulties in transforming this organism. In this work we demonstrate that the dns and xds genes differ and that their products are solely responsible for the extracellular DNase activity. By site-directed mutagenesis, strains have been constructed which are mutant in one or both genes. These strains have been assessed for their ability to be transformed with plasmid DNA and for their virulence in the infant mouse cholera model. No effect on virulence was observed with the mutants.

AN - 16298283; 2816249 AB - The effects of endotoxins from various bacteria (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Vibrio cholerae, Shigella flexneri, Salmonella typhosa , and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ) on chemotaxis of neutrophil leukocytes to formyl peptide and interleukin-8 were tested in an improved chemotaxis assay involving a "sparse-pore" polycarbonate (Nuclepore) membrane in a Boyden-type chamber. The possible chemotactic activity of the endotoxins themselves were tested by the same technique. In addition, the effects of these substances on random motility of neutrophils were tested with a corresponding assay involving similar chambers fitted with membranes of standard pore density. Possible activation of the complement system of serum by each endotoxin was tested with sheep erythrocyte assays and the maximum endotoxin concentration (100 mu g/ml) used in the chemotaxis and motility assays. The results suggest that chemotaxis to interleukin-8 may be mediated by cellular mechanisms different from those involved in chemotaxis to formyl peptide.

AN - 16295063; 2812522 AB - Macroinvertebrates were sampled in seven microhabitats (submerged woody debris, reeds, sedges, inundated grass, floating aquatic vegetation, lignum, and the unvegetated littoral) at thirteen sites representing six macrohabitats (single temporary and permanent ox-bow lakes (billabongs), fast and slow-flowing anabranches, backwaters, and the main channel) of the River Murray, and Australian lowland river. Sites were sampled in spring 1988, shortly after floodwaters had receded. Most of the 95 taxa collected were aquatic insects. Detritivores were most abundant in all macrohabitats except the temporary billabong where predators predominated. Scrapers were only abundant in the permanent billabong. The temporary billabong harboured the most species and individuals whereas slowly-flowing anabranches contained the fewest species and individuals. The relatively large number of taxa collected from this area emphasizes the importance of range of macrohabitats and microhabitats to faunal diversity in a floodplain ecosystem.

AN - 16294132; 2814809 AB - A fundamental understanding of the Acanthaster phenomenon - the outbreaks of the crown-of-thorns starfish - on the Great Barrier Reef has now emerged. This is a result of a concerted integrated research effort over the last decade, involving field, modelling and theoretical work. This new understanding requires that we reevaluate the nature of the outbreaks. It says that beneath the apparent complexity of waves of outbreaks travelling down the Reef lies the simplicity of a classic prey-predator stable limit cycle, which itself is clearly part of a family of dynamical behaviours for the phenomenon. It also says that the density of fish predators of juvenile starfish controls which of the family of behaviours is actually expressed.

AN - 16274069; 2802462 AB - Anticardiolipin antibody, an immunoglobulin that binds negatively charged phospholipids, is considered to be an vitro inhibitor of clot-based coagulation procedures. We adapted an enzyme immunoassay using stationary cardiolipin antigen to compare anticardiolipin antibody activity in the plasma of 44 cocaine abusers with its activity in the serum of 72 blood donors and a sample of 203 random specimens from healthy volunteers. Activity of 20 of the 44 abusers and 43 of 203 random specimens exceeded the donor control reference range. Patients using intravenous cocaine were more likely to have elevated activity than those who inhaled. Of 7 patients who had seizures or thromboembolic disorders, 5 were anticardiolipin antibody positive. Enzyme immunoassay may have predictive value for ischemic disease in cocaine abusers.

AN - 16273037; 2802444 AB - The aim of this historical (retrospective) cohort study was to investigate the relation between occupational exposure to radon daughters and subsequent mortality from lung cancer. Participants were former workers from the Radium Hill uranium mine, which operated in eastern South Australia from 1952 to 1961. A total of 2,574 workers were identified from mine records. Exposures to radon daughters were estimated from historical records of radon gas concentrations in the mine and from individual job histories. From the available information, we conclude that this increase is unlikely to be due to differences in smoking habits or other confounders. Taken together with the findings from other occupational studies, these results support current moves toward more stringent radiation control in the workplace, and underline the importance of research into the possible effects of domestic radon exposures.

AN - 16260668; 2789019 AB - The rfb genes of Vibrio cholerae O1 (Ogawa serotype) were subcloned into a derivative of pBR322. This plasmid was transformed into several Escherichia coli K-12 mutant strains which produce an incomplete lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-core-oligosaccharide region. The data indicate that the V. cholerae O-antigen is assembled onto the E. coli LPS and that at least two glucoses are needed in the core in order to achieve a high level of production. These data are consistent with the reported presence of glucose in the V. cholerae LPS-core-oligosaccharide region.

AN - 16239877; 2770885 AB - Investigations have been made to determine the identity and binding characteristics of the pterins that are bound tightly to dihydrofolate reductases which are isolated from vertebrate sources by a well established procedure. This procedure involved the binding of enzyme to a Sepharose-methotrexate column, elution with dihydrofolate and removal of free dihydrofolate by dialysis or by size-exclusion chromatography. Addition to such preparations of NADPH results in oxidation of the nucleotide and from the progress curves so obtained, it is possible to identify the bound pterin and to calculate the stoichiometry of binding. The data indicated that stoichiometric amounts of dihydrofolate or folate plus dihydrofolate were bound to the dihydrofolate reductases. It can also be concluded that binding occurs at the active sites of the enzymes.

AN - 16227367; 2751276 AB - 5-Aminolevulinate synthase (ALAS) catalyzes the first step of the heme biosynthetic pathway. cDNA clones for the human erythroid ALAS isozyme were isolated from a fetal liver library. An analysis of the immediate promoter of the human erythroid ALAS gene revealed several putative erythroid-specific cis-acting elements including both a GATA-1 and an NF-E2 binding site. An iron-responsive element (IRE) motif has been identified in the 5'-untranslated region of the human erythroid ALAS mRNA, but is not present in the housekeeping ALAS mRNA. Gel retardation experiments established that this IRE motif formed a protein-RNA complex with cytosolic extracts from human K562 cells and this binding was strongly competed with IRE transcripts from ferritin or transferrin receptor mRNAs. These results imply that translation of the mRNA is controlled by cellular iron availability during erythropoiesis.

AN - 16222005; 2753095 AB - This present investigation concerned the effect of chemostat-culture cell-free supernatants of Fusobacterium nucleatum on the growth and synthetic activity of human gingival fibroblasts in vitro. While the conditioned culture medium caused a complete inhibition of cell growth and incorporation of ( super(3)H)-thymidine DNA, there was no discernible effect on protein or proteoglycan synthesis. This indicated that the cells remained viable yet unable to divide. Such a view was supported by the observation that the inhibitory effect was reversible upon removal of the conditioned medium. This activity had a molecular size less than 30,000, was heat-stable and nonvolatile. Chemical analysis of the conditioned bacterial culture supernatants indicated that high proportions of butyrate, ammonium, and acetate were present.

Twenty soils from the New South Wales wheat belt representing a range of pH values, clay contents and cropping histories were amended with sterile ( gamma -irradiated) straw and inoculated with Azospirillum brasilense) Sp7 and Cellulomonas sp.CS1-17. In the absence of inoculation all soils showed nitrogenase activity (ARA) following straw incorporation, indicating the widespread distribution of diazotrophs in these soils and the presence of cellulolytic organisms capable of supplying the indigenous diazotrophs with energy from the breakdown of straw. Without inoculation, there was more than a 10,000-fold range in the number of diazotrophs present in the 20 soils after the first 30 days of incubation.

AN - 16192461; 2726255 AB - An enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) has been developed to detect serum immunoglobulin antibodies G and M to Treponema hyodysenteriae in vaccinated, experimentally infected and naturally infected swine. Naturally infected swine gave ELISA titres that were similar to experimentally infected swine, but were significantly less than the titres of vaccinated swine. When serum from naturally infected swine was used to probe nitrocellulose blots of sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresed whole cell proteins of T. hyodysenteriae , the immunoblotting patterns showed IgG antibodies were produced against many T. hyodysenteriae protein antigens and against lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The data demonstrate that a microplate enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, coupled with immunoblotting, is a very specific and sensitive test for detection of antibody to Treponema hyodysenteriae in swine.

AN - 16190950; 2734710 AB - Shigellae are notorious for developing rapid resistance to antimicrobial agents. In Bangladesh, where shigellosis is endemic, virtually all shigellae are resistant to streptomycin, chloramphenicol and ampicillin. This resulted in the introduction of a quinolone, nalidixic acid, for the treatment against which resistance started appearing in the mid-1980s. Nalidixic acid resistant shigellae are now treated in our Centre with pivmecillinam, a penicillanic acid derivative, and ciprofloxacin, a quinolone. Since the introduction of pivmecillinam in Bangladesh, we have started encountering pivmecillinam-resistant shigellae. In this report, we describe the mode of transfer of resistance to this drug.

AN - 16172830; 2716477 AB - The high-pressure homogenization of Escherichia coli , strain JM101, containing inclusion bodies of recombinant porcine somatotropin was investigated. A novel technique employing an analytical disc centrifuge was used to monitor the disruption. This is a direct technique which measures cell disintegration rather than soluble protein release. The technique is particularly suited to measurements where the disruption approaches 100%. The disk centrifuge provides a size distribution of the homogenate, and furnishes evidence for the preferential disruption of larger cells. For E. coli containing inclusion bodies, an increase in the cell feed concentration from 145 g/L (wet weight) to 330 g/L resulted in poorer homogenization. Poorer disruption was also obtained by lowering the feed temperature from 20 degree C to 5 degree C. Only slight variations in performance were obtained by increasing the feed pH from 7.5 to 9.0 or by storing the feed at 4 degree C for 24 h prior to disruption. Comparisons with uninduced E. coli , strain JM101, showed that the disruption obtained is higher for bacteria containing a recombinant inclusion body.

AN - 16163244; 2709753 AB - An open, prospective, randomised trial was conducted to compare the incidence of significant bacteriuria following 2 methods of intermittent urethral catheterisation in patients with acute spinal cord trauma. Twenty-two patients were catheterised with a Nelaton catheter and 50 ml of Trisdine were instilled into the bladder and left there immediately prior to withdrawal of the catheter. Fifteen patients were catheterised with a Nelaton catheter with a special introducer to improve asepsis (O'Neil catheter). The instillation of Trisdine into the bladder after each passage of a catheter resulted in a significantly lower incidence of bacteriuria compared with that which resulted from the use of the O'Neil catheter.

A case-control study. AN - 16158602; 2696402 AB - Lung tissue from 221 definite and probable cases of malignant mesothelioma reported to the Australian Mesothelioma Surveillance Program from January 1980 through December 1985 and from an age-sex frequency matched control series of 359 postmortem cases were examined by light microscopic (LM) and analytical transmission electron microscopic (TEM) analysis and energy dispersive x-ray analysis (EDAX). Concentrations of total fibers (coated and uncoated) (LM), crocidolite, amosite, chrysotile, and unidentified amphibole (TEM) (fibers/g dry lung tissue) were measured. Univariate analyses showed statistically significant dose-response relationships between odds ratio and fiber concentration for all fiber concentration measures. The relationship between log(odds ratio) and log(fiber concentration) was linear. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that a model containing crocidolite greater than or equal to 10 mu m, amosite < 10 mu m, and chrysotile < 10 mu m as explanatory variables best described the data.

It detected EPEC positive for localized adherence (LA) by HeLa cells assay and EPEC positive for EPEC adherence factor (EAF) by DNA probe assay. A specific antiserum was raised with LA super(+) EPEC strain E2348/69 (serotype O127:H6) by immunizing rabbits and then absorbing the antiserum with its LA super(-) derivative, MAR20. The absorbed antiserum reacted specifically with all 90 strains of E. coli) belonging to eight different EPEC serogroups that were LA super(+) by HeLa cell assay and EAF super(+) by DNA probe assay. All E. coli) strains including EPEC serogroups that were LA super(-) by HeLa cell assay and EAF super(-) by DNA probe assay were also negative by ELISA. Thus the ELISA is 100% sensitive and specific in detecting LA super(+) classic EPEC serogroups.

AN - 16150631; 2699048 AB - Macrofossils of 27 taxa and microfossils of 47 taxa are identified from a Late Pleistocene deposit at Melaleuca Inlet with a minimum age of 38 800 years. Interpretation of the fossil assemblage suggests that at the time of deposition the climate was cooler than at present and at least as wet. The local vegetation was dominated by wet scrub and sedgeland-heath communities with rainforest and wet sclerophyll forest also present. Species composition was similar to extant vegetation in the region but now-extinct species and possibly communities were present. Charcoal occurs in the sediments and the taxonomic make-up of the assemblage is consistent with the presence of a well established high fire frequency, despite the deposit pre-dating the earliest known human occupation of Tasmania.

AN - 16146462; 2695399 AB - We tested the hypothesis that litter indirectly enhances the establishment of woody seedlings in oldfields, because litter reduces the intensity of herb competition. The results showed a strong negative effect of herb competition and a positive indirect effect of litter on woody seedling establishment. Litter had only a marginal effect on the number of seedlings established in the field. The removal of the dominant herb increased woody seedling size. Dense oak leaf litter reduced the cover of herbs and increased the size of the woody seedlings. In the greenhouse, litter reduced the density and biomass of herbs, thus improving the growth of the woody seedlings by reducing competition. We found evidence of a possible complex interaction, in which the presence of trees that produce the litter affect the competition between herbs and woody seedlings from a distance.

AN - 16146386; 2695416 AB - Water turnover rate (WTR), urine concentration and field metabolic rate (FMR) were examined in house mice, Mus domesticus , permanently inhabiting roadside verge areas and seasonally invading crops in semi-arid wheatlands in South Australia. FMR was approximately proportional to body mass super(0.5) and mean values varied from 4.8 ml CO sub(2) g super(-1)h super(-1) (2.9 kJ g super(-1)d super(-1)) in autumn and winter, to 7.0 ml CO sub(2) g super(-1)h super(-1) (4.2 kJ g super(-1)d super(-1)) in maturing crops during spring. WTR was independent of body mass, indicating that larger mice were selecting a diet containing moister foods. WTR was low in summer and high in winter, and in mice from crops varied from 165 ml l super(-1) body water d super(-1) (122 ml kg super(-1)d super(-1)) to 1000 ml l super(-1)d super(-1) (725 ml kg super(-1)d super(-1)). Seasonal changes in WTR were less extreme on the roadside, where a greater diversity of food was available. In the crops, breeding occurred throughout summer during two of three years, but the population increased only in the one summer when mice had marginally higher WTR. On the roadside breeding and population growth were continuous during summer, except in a drought year.

AN - 16146314; 2690585 AB - The Columbia River, located in the Northwestern United States, supports active commercial and recreational fisheries. In addition to other industries, a number of bleached kraft pulp and paper mills are located along the river in the States of Washington and Oregon. To determine the impact that effluents from these mills have on residue levels of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) in fish, the most extensive field survey and health risk assessment ever conducted on a major river was undertaken. The data indicate that mill effluents did not elevate fish TCDD residues above background. Lifetime average daily doses (LADDs) for residents, recreational fishermen, Asian Americans, and Native Americans were 0.0034, 0.056, 0.013, and 0.024 pg/kg-day. The theoretical upper-bound excess lifetime cancer risks associated with the consumption of Columbia River fish by recreational fishermen, the most sensitive consumers examined in this analysis, was below one in one million (5 x 10 super(-7)).

ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Effects of trichloroethylene on hepatic and splenic lymphocytotoxic activities in rodents. AN - 16142742; 2687984 AB - The effects of trichloroethylene (TRI), a widely used industrial solvent, on various immunological and toxicological parameters have been examined in Sprague-Dawley rats and B6C3F1 mice. Rats were administered TRI in vivo at 0.05, 0.5 and 5.0 mmol/kg per day intraperitoneally (i.p.) for 3 days. Mice were similarity treated with TRI at 10.0 mmol/kg. The highest TRI dose resulted in decreased splenocyte count and relative spleen weights, in rats and mice respectively and inhibition of hepatic natural killer cells (NK), natural cytotoxic cell (NC) and NPK cell (a newly described immune cell killing) activities in both rats and mice. High dose TRI in vitro resulted in minor decreases (<10%) in splenocyte viability, inhibition of LPS-stimulated mitogenesis in rat cells and marked inhibitions of NK and NC activities in all groups of effector cells. At the lowest in vitro dose mouse hepatic NK activity was still inhibited. Overall the data show that TRI is able to inhibit the activity of lymphocytotoxic cells which are involved in the immune surveillance of cancerous cells.

AN - 16142351; 2693489 AB - Recent ecological and oceanographic evidence has demonstrated that coral recruitment can be highly localised and very successful in areas of high water residence time (eddy areas) on coral reefs. These areas occur in the lee of time-averaged and depth-averaged far-field currents. In this study, several reefs in the central region of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia, were examined to determine the relationship between asymmetry in reef geomorphology, wind direction, time-depth-averaged currents, particularly during the coral spawning season. Asymmetry in overall reef geomorphology was found to be closely associated with time- and depth averaged seasonal current, often prevailing at the time of coral spawning. We propose that far-field currents, near-field currents, and coral recruitment processes prevailing during the time of coral spawning have differentially enhanced lateral extension of the reef in a direction "down-current" far-field currents through geological time.

AN - 16134728; 2687693 AB - The efficacy of drinking-driving countermeasures can be assessed in several ways, including reported changes in attitudes and behavioral intent as well as changes in crash rates. However, few studies have examined the changes in actual drinking-driving behavior. A method of surveying the blood alcohol concentrations (BACs) of drivers, without either police intervention or disruption to traffic flow, was developed in South Australia. This method, which has been used successfully to test approximately 50,000 drivers, is described in detail.

AN - 16124706; 2683052 AB - Pathogens are potent selective forces whose importance in shaping the size and structure of individual plant populations and whole communities has been underestimated. Even in situations where host and pathogen have been associated over long periods of time, pathogens regularly affect host fitness by reducing fecundity and increasing mortality either directly or indirectly through reductions in competitive ability. The genetic consequences of such disease-induced reductions in fitness are profound. On a broad geographic scale, race-specific resistance generally occurs more frequently in regions characterized by environments favourable for disease development. JF - Australian journal of ecology.

AN - 16122888; 2678779 AB - Hurricane Hugo caused severe but short-term disruption of the avian community of a subtropical wet forest site in the Luquillo Mountains of Puerto Rico. Nectarivorous and frugivorous bird species were greatly reduced in numbers immediately after the hurricane. The single granivore species studied decreased in numbers more slowly. Insectivores and omnivores increased after the hurricane. All species except the granivore returned to their prehurricane abundance levels prior to the following breeding season, suggesting that population changes were a result of movement in search of food rather than mortality. Mist net captures and observations indicated that birds occupied a reduced vertical foraging range after the hurricane, and stomach contents from birds captured 6-10 months after the hurricane showed that different foods were being consumed. Fewer and different kinds of arthropods were found in stomachs after the hurricane. JF - Biotropica AU - Waide, R B AD - Terr. Ecol. Div., Cent. Energ. and Environ. Res., G.P.O.

Of these persons, 134 had probable Alzheimer's disease, 166 had possible Alzheimer's disease, and 167 had no evidence of Alzheimer's disease. Over a median follow-up period of 4.9 years following evaluation, 165 (35%) died. Overall, persons with probable Alzheimer's disease had a relative risk of death 1.44 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.05-1.96) times that of the unaffected. Level of cognitive impairment and presence of cachexia upon physical examination both strongly and independently modified risk of death.

These responses are conveniently assayed by complement-dependent bacteriolysis of V. cholerae . In this report the bactericidal responses generated by two such clones are analysed in relation to the pre-immunization titres of various serum antibodies. A significant association was found, in that recipients with higher prevaccine titres of anti-V. cholerae bactericidal antibodies were less likely to register significant bactericidal responses following immunization. The results are discussed in relation to the concept of vaccine exclusion. JF - Vaccine AU - Attridge, S AD - Enterovax Ltd., c/o Dep. Microbiol. and Immunol., Univ. Adelaide, G.P.O.

By cutting open cells so that they could be viewed from the inside out, clear observations of nuclei, microtubules, and actin-containing elements (preserved by glutaraldehyde) in the endoplasm have been made. Microtubules were found in the subcortical layer, aligned and possibly associated with the prominent actin bundles.

AN - 16114022; 2671582 AB - A locally isolated strain of Micromonospora sp. when grown on different natural cellulosic substrates gave the highest activity of carboxymethylcellulase (34 U/ml) and Avicelase (0.9 U/ml) on rice straw. Sugar cane bagasse was also a good substrate for growth and cellulase production. With commercial cellulosic substrates, highest carboxymethylcellulase (90 U/ml) and Avicelase (2.8 U/ml) activities were when the organism grew on xylan. Saccharification of sugar cane bagasse and rice straw by enzyme preparations of the organism grown on the respective substrates released 5.6 and 5.8 mg reducing sugar/ml. With all enzyme preparations, bagasse was more easily saccharified than rice straw.

AN - 16107707; 2665925 AB - Five species of the toxigenic, marine dinoflagellate genus Alexandrium are reported from south-eastern Australian waters. A. minutum, A. catenella, A. tamarense, A. affine and a new species to be described as A. margalefi in Balech's monograph on the genus Alexandrium . Production of paralytic shellfish poisons was confirmed for A. minutum and A. catenella , but isolates of the others were non-toxic. All the species produce smooth-walled, mucilaginous resting cysts but these ranged in shape from spherical, to hemispherical to cylindrical with rounded ends. Considerable variation in the cell shape of wild and cultured populations is documented. However, details of shape of the first apical plate (with or without ventral pore), the apical pore complex (with anterior attachment pore) and the posterior sulcal plate (with posterior attachment pore) proved to be conservative taxonomic characters. Historic reports of PSP toxins and of a chain-forming gonyaulacoid dinoflagellate (Gonyaulax conjuncta ) in New South Wales waters are reviewed. The species A. margalefi, A. tamarense and A. affine are new records for Australia region. JF - Botanica Marina AU - Hallegraeff, G M AU - Bolch, C J AU - Blackburn, SI AU - Oshima, Y AD - CSIRO Div.

AN - 16100199; 2646748 AB - Although there is a growing body of literature concerning the physiology of lizard eggs, this information is largely derived from laboratory experiments, and there have been few measurements of the environmental conditions in natural lizard nests. Unlike the nests of most lizards, the nests of some tropical iguanas are obvious and can be observed and experimentally manipulated. Nests of the Cuban iguana Cyclura nubila were instrumented, and weekly measurements of soil temperature, soil water potential, and the concentrations of O sub(2) and CO sub(2) were recorded. Nest temperatures were similar among nests and over a 24 hr cycle with temperatures around 31 degree -32 degree C. However, there was more variability in soil water potential among the nests, as they dried at different rates after a soaking rain near the beginning of incubation. Although the gaseous environments of the nests were distinctly different from aboveground ambient conditions, the levels of O sub(2) and CO sub(2) were less extreme than in the nests of larger reptiles (sea turtles and crocodiles). The CO sub(2) concentrations were found to be related to nest depth and, to a lesser extent, clutch size. JF - Biotropica AU - Christian, KA AU - Lawrence, W T AD - Northern Territory Univ., G.P.O.

AN - 16099866; 2655352 AB - Septic shock has been increasing in incidence since the 1930s and is presently the most common cause of death in intensive care units (ICUs) in the United States. Reasonable current estimates of annual incidence are 400,000 cases of sepsis, 200,000 bouts of septic shock, and 100,000 deaths due to this syndrome. Reasons underlying this rising incidence and continued high mortality include increased use of cytotoxic and immunosuppressive drug therapies, increased patient age, increased presence of concomitant medical illnesses, increased use of invasive devices for diagnosis and therapy, and rising incidence of infections due to organisms other than Gram-negative bacteria (Gram-positive bacteria, fungi, and possibly viruses), and, perhaps, the emergence of antibiotic-resistant organisms. All estimates suggest that these numbers will continue to rise. JF - CHEST. AU - Snell, R J AU - Parrillo, JE AD - Rush-Presbyt.-St. Luke's Med. Cent., 1653 W.

AN - 16098850; 2652942 AB - Disease due to Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) in patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) typically occurs late in the course of AIDS and is usually disseminated with evidence of multiorgan involvement. Most patients are persistently bacteremic. We describe successful treatment of MAC disease in an AIDS patient with a multiple drug regimen, including amikacin, clofazimine, rifampin, ethambutol, and ciprofloxacin. We suggest a prospective, controlled clinical trial using this regimen for treatment of MAC disease in patients with AIDS may be warranted.

AN - 16096299; 2652998 AB - The home range of Antechinus stuartii has two components. A small area (0.94 ha for males, 0.38 ha for females) is used for foraging, while a much greater social range (mean for males in a given year may exceed 5 ha; the mean for females never exceeded 3 ha) encompasses communal nests, which are used by both males and females. The foraging range of females is stable throughout the year. The foraging range may not coincide at all, or only partially coincide with her social range. By contrast, male foraging ranges drift through the year, and generally lie within their social range. Intersexual differences reflect the different selection pressure on the sexes. Females requires access to resources to sustain a costly lactation, while males require a knowledge of many possible sites for mating and early resolution of agonistic interactions with other males with which they cohabit during mating.

Serum antibody responses in chickens that were given oral or subcutaneous inoculations of the bacterium followed the classic order of antibody production, with IgM being detected first, followed by IgG and IgA. Antibody responses in the gut of orally inoculated chickens were restricted to IgG and IgA. Salmonellosis protection of chickens by oral vaccination with STM was examined in a vaccination/challenge experiment. The experiment revealed that oral vaccination reduced excretion of a virulent S. typhimurium used as the challenge organism.

Three colonies in all, collected from the same site at the same time, were analyzed and gave very similar results. The outermost, more exposed, tips of the colony had an alkaloid content of nearly 9% of dry weight, while basal parts were apparently devoid of alkaloids. Samples taken midway between tips and base yielded intermediate concentrations of about 1%. Very little variation in the proportions of individual amathamides A, B, C, E occurred between exposed tips of the colonies. However, some differences in ratios were found between tips from exposed and more protected regions. JF - Journal of Chemical Ecology AU - Walls, J T AU - Blackman, A J AU - Ritz, DA AD - Zool.

AN - 16086930; 2641832 AB - The millipede Spinotarsus caboverdus Pierrard is an agricultural pest on the island of Santo Antao in the Cape Verde Islands, West Africa. All evidence suggests that S. caboverdus is not native to Cape Verde, but the actual country of origin is not known, thereby preventing attempts at classical biological control. In South Australia the nematode Rhabditis necromena Sudhaus and Schulte has been used as a biological control agent against the introduced Portuguese millipede Ommatoiulus moreleti Lucas. Considering the recent expansion of the host range of R. necromena , this species was assessed in both laboratory and field experiments as a possible biological control agent against S. caboverdus . Whilst R. necromena was capable of killing S. caboverdus in the laboratory, levels of infection in the field were extremely low. The reasons for this difference are discussed in the context of the success rate of attempts at biological control.

AN - 16080337; 2630942 AB - A quantitative dose-response assessment of 2,3,7,8-TCDD was undertaken to predict the potential carcinogenic risks to humans. Risk-specific doses (RsDs) and cancer potency factor (CPFs) were calculated by applying the linearized multistage (LMS) model to the combined incidences of hepatocellular carcinomas and adenomas, classified in accordance with the 1990 histopathological criteria. Based on the weight of evidence regarding the mechanism of action of 2,3,7,8-TCDD, body weight rather than surface area was selected as the appropriate means for scaling rodent data to predict the human response. Using the survival adjusted data, the RsD for a 1 in 1,000,000 (10 super(-6)) plausible upper bound (95%) lifetime incremental cancer risk was 370 fg/kg/d based only on the incidence of hepatocellular carcinomas, and 100 fg/kg/d when hepatocellular carcinomas and adenomas were combined. The corresponding upper-bound (95%) CPFs were 2700 and 9700 (mg/kg/d) super(-1), respectively.

AN - 16079392; 2641253 AB - When specimens of the lucerne leafroller, Merophyas divulsana , were sampled from an area with a history of crop damage, they were found to have (E)-11-tetradecenyl acetate, hexadecyl acetate, and tetradecyl acetate as principal components of the pheromone gland. A synthetic mixture of these compounds proved to be a successful lure in delta traps. On the other hand, apparently identical moths collected in areas with no history of crop damage were found to have (Z)-11-tetradecenyl acetate as the major component of the sex pheromone gland. The distribution of the two moths provides the basis for a plausible explanation of the regional pest activity reported for M. divulsana .

AN - 16075581; 2634353 AB - Bacteroides fragilis and Escherichia coli are synergistic in the production of intraabdominal abscesses. However, these bacteria initiate abscess formation only when inoculated with an agent such as autoclaved colonic contents (ACC) or bran (a fiber analogue). The mechanism of action of the abscess-potentiating agent was studied. Opsonins in normal mouse serum were determined for phagocytic killing by murine neutrophils of B. fragilis and E. coli . Opsonization required fixation of complement by the alternative pathway. Assay of the alternative pathways of complement activation indicated that both bacterial components and abscess-potentiating agents in an abscess-inducing mixture activated complement. The findings suggest that abscess-potentiating agents inhibit opsonization and therefore the subsequent phagocytic killing of bacteria in the nonimmune host.

AN - 16074338; 2635011 AB - Calli induced from various plant parts of avocado cultivars Topa Topa (susceptible), Duke 7 (moderately resistant), and Martin Grande (resistant) were inoculated with the root and collar rotting pathogen Phytophthora cinnamomi and examined for expression of resistance. Resistance was assessed quantitatively by measuring the rate of hyphal extension across the callus surface from the point of inoculation. Resistance in the callus tissue was associated with sparse, limited mycelial growth, in contrast to prolific, dense growth on and within susceptible callus. Rates of hyphal extension on calli of the resistant "Duke 7" and "Martin Grande" ranged from 1-3 mm/day compared with 4-7 mm/day on cali of "Topa Topa". This difference in growth was significant. This is the first report of avocado callus exhibiting resistance to P. cinnamomi and it mirrors that recorded for the whole plant for the three avocado cultivars tested. Thus, the level of resistance expressed by each cultivar appears to be innate whether the host tissue remains in an organized state or is in the form of an undifferentiated callus mass. JF - CAN. J.

AN - 16066344; 2631438 AB - Closed system models are defined as mathematical models of systems having specified boundaries within which all flows into and out of the system are accounted for. Closure is obtained experimentally when we can measure all flows and do not depend on residuals. The meeting on which this volume is based discussed a range of models and approaches to modeling, and the possibility of achieving closure. There was general agreement that we can develop closed system models of the water balance, carbon cycle and nutrient fluxes at the stand level. Confidence in our ability to account for all the flows is greatest for water, decreasing progressively for carbon and nutrients. The priority areas for research on the carbon balance are belowground processes, foliage dynamics and respiration.

Millsp.) is a systemic response to effective nodulation by the Rhizobium strain IC3342. AN - 16065751; 2621095 AB - Rhizobium strain IC3342 is an unusual bacterium that causes a leaf curl syndrome in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan Millsp.). Growth characteristics, plasmid profile, conserved nif and nod gene sequences, and nodulation host range of this strain resemble that of the fast-growing Rhizobium strain ANU240 (NGR234). Leaf curl induction occurred only in hosts effectively nodulated by this strain. A plasmid-cured, non-nodulating derivative failed to induce leaf curl symptoms. The strain IC3342 competed poorly with fast- and slow-growing root-nodule bacteria, but the observed nodule occupancy of 10% was enough to produce leaf curl symptoms. Suppression of nodule development by added inorganic nitrogen also prevented symptom expression. Approach grafting of a healthy pigeonpea plant and a plant with leaf curl symptoms resulted in the development of leaf curl symptoms on the growing shoots of the healthy plant within 8 days of graft union.

Both types of model have been advocated for use in predictive microbiology. On the basis of published data sets for the growth of bacteria, the consequences of mathematical transformation of data and the use of invalid stochastic assumptions upon model predictions are demonstrated. Mean square error is shown to be an inappropriate criterion by which to compare the performance of predictive models. The data show that bacterial growth responses such as generation time and lag time become more variable as their mean magnitude increases.

Summary. AN - 16060300; 2626819 AB - Agriculture has always been a mainstay of the U.S. economy, and an important component of our cultural heritage. Surveys show that public concern over agrichemical contamination of groundwater (as well as other related issues such as food safety and surface-water quality) is high. Further, this concern extends to farmers and farm communities. Protection of the Nation's groundwater resources has become an issue of pressing concern to the public, to Congress, and to many Federal, State, and local agencies. Agencies and organization at all levels are undertaking programs designed to affect a farmer's choice of technology. The assessment identifies and discusses in-dopth constraints to and opportunities for agricultural approaches to reduce the potential for agrichemical contamination of groundwater.

AN - 16060040; 2615493 AB - A survey of time-weighted average (TWA) personal inhalable dust exposures for woodworkers in 15 Australian furniture factories was undertaken. There was significant variation in the individual dust measurements with mean exposures of 3.2, 5.2, and 3.5 mg/m super(3) for wood machinists, cabinetmakers, and chair framemakers, respectively. Hardwoods, softwoods, and reconstituted woods are used in the industry, but only minor differences in mean exposures or particle size distributions were found for the broad categories. In addition, a modified British Medical Research Council respiratory questionnaire was used to obtain information about work-related symptoms and job activities. Compared with a control group, the woodworkers reported more eye, ear, and nasal problems, with the differences being statistically significant. However, among the woodworkers themselves, with the exception of several nasal symptoms, the prevalences of reported symptoms were poorly correlated with gravimetric measurements of personal dust exposure.

AN - 16059818; 2628621 AB - We have examined the effect of phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) on airway smooth muscle (ASM) in the presence and absence of respiratory epithelium (RE) and analyzed the dependence of this response on extracellular sodium, Na super(+)/H super(+) exchange, calcium, and cyclooxygenase products; we determined both the resting membrane potential and isometric force developed by ASM preparations. Removal of RE had no effect on the values of the resting membrane potential of ASM cells. In the presence of RE in the preparation, both electrical and contractile responses to PMA (10 super(-5) M) were significantly different compared with the response of ASM to PMA without RE. When the RE was present, stimulation of protein kinase C caused only a biphasic response in both membrane potential and isometric force. In either the presence or absence of RE, amiloride (10 super(-5) M) and a low-sodium inhibited both electrical and contractile changes of ASM cells caused by PMA.

AN - 16049344; 2612691 AB - Streptococcus suis type 2 was isolated from the tonsils of 143 (76 per cent) of 188 pigs from three herds by culturing on media containing a specific antiserum. Culture of frozen sections of tonsillar tissue was more sensitive than culture of swabs or deep scrapes. The level of infection in one herd without a history of meningitis was lower than in two herds which had experienced repeated outbreaks. Differences between herds in the level of infection were due to differences in the number of organisms carried by pigs, more so than differences in the detectable carrier rate.

AN - 16040746; 2613765 AB - Strain ANU1173 is an acid-tolerant Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar trifolii strain that is able to nodulate subterranean clover plants growing in agar culture at pH 4.4. At pH 6.5, its symbiotic effectiveness in association with Trifolium subterraneum cv. Mt. Barker was 80% relative to that of strain ANU794, a Sm super(r) derivative of the commercial inoculant R. leguminosarum) bv. trifolii TA1. Strain ANU1173 contained four indigenous megaplasmics, the smallest of these being the symbiotic (Sym) plasmid. The critical pH requirement for growth of strain ANU1173 in laboratory media was shown not to be associated with this plasmid. When the Sym plasmid of strain ANU1173 (pSym-1173) was mobilized into a Nod super(-) strain of R. leguminosarum) bv. viciae , the plasmid conferred to the transconjugant a level of symbiotic effectiveness in association with T. subterraneum that was similar to that observed with ANU1173. The symbiotic effectiveness of strain ANU1173 was improved by first curing pSym-1173 (generating strain ANU1184) and re0lacing it with another R. leguminosarum bv. trifolii Sym plasmid, pBR1AN.

AN - 16038282; 2607791 AB - This paper outlines briefly the salient findings reported on the origin, current status and consumer acceptability aspects of Yakhni, which is a popular milk and meat-based beverage of traditional Kashmiri cuisine called "Wazawan." Processing schedule and an optimum recipe have been standardized for manufacture of Yakhni and reported here. Yakhni samples packaged in low density polyethylene bags were found to be safe for consumption during one week of refrigerated (4 plus or minus 1 degree C) storage. There was little change in pH values with a corresponding change in the total acidity of the product during storage. Overall TBA values and aerobic plate counts increased during storage with a corresponding drop in organoleptic scores. Yakhni can thus be refrigerated at 4 plus or minus 1 degree C for at least one week, without much change in the organoleptic acceptability of the product.

AN - 16037324; 2608180 AB - Unrelated Antechinus stuartii spend a high proportion of their time in mixed-sex communal nests. Communal nesting starts early in the year, after females have weaned their young. It appears to the driven by the need for social interactions and familiarity between all the individuals in an area. The mixed communal nests persist into the mating season, when males and females often visit more than one communal nest each day. During the mating season, males spend no more than 8 hours in a communal nest, and travel extensively between communal nests, perhaps in an effort to improve their reproductive success. Lactating females nest solitarily. To meet the needs of their litter, they increase the number of foraging trips they undertake, but do not reduce the total amount of time spent within the nest at this energetically expensive time of year.

AN - 16036725; 2609141 AB - In Belize, shallow fore-reef buttresses are dominated by Agaricia tenuifolia Dana. The ecological importance of this fragile coral in such a high-energy environment may be explained in part by an unusual cooperative interaction between adjacent clones of A. tenuifolia . The shallow buttresses are often composed primarily of many clones of A. tenuifolia growing in close proximity. Surveys conducted at Carrie Bow Cay, Belize, in 1986 and 1987 showed that intraspecific contacts between different clones are common and occur far more frequently than interspecific encounters with other sessile taxa. In contrast to many other corals, contacts between non-clone-mates of A. tenuifolia do not result in competitive interactions, tissue bleaching or death, or significantly altered patterns of colony growth. Instead, inter-clonal contact stimulates localized morphological changes in the skeletons of both corals directly beneath the contact interface, which tend to anchor the two corals against each other, making them more resistant to breakage and detachment.

AN - 16028915; 2591620 AB - Solutions of glucobrassicin (3-indolylmethyl glucosinolate) purified from foliage and sinigrin (allyl glucosinolate) elicited oviposition by the cabbage butterfly, Pieris rapae , at threshold concentrations as low as 10 super(-6) M. At higher concentrations, glucobrassicin elicited a faster oviposition rate and a stronger visual response to the substrate through associative learning. Solutions of 10 super(-5) M glucobrassicin and 10 super(-2) M sinigrin stimulated equally. Their enzymic hydrolysis products failed to influence oviposition. The markedly greater potency of glucobrassicin is consistent with known glucosinolate profiles of crucifers which show indolyl glucosinolates predominant in foliage.

AN - 16026133; 2600233 AB - Liquid B.t.i. (Vectobac) 12AS), when mixed with water at a 1:3 ratio and applied by helicopter at a rate of 1.17 liters B.t.i. (4.68 liters mix) per ha, was 99% effective in a small (mass median diameter on dye cards: 178 mu m) droplet size but ineffective (65%) in a large (553 mu m) droplet against spring Aedes larvae in snowmelt pools. There were about 6 times as many smaller droplets as larger ones impacting the treated pools, which probably explained the difference in effectiveness of the 2 treatment regimes. Results indicate that liquid formulations of B.t.i. could be aerially applied for spring Aedes control at a considerable cost savings and efficiency over aerially applied, granular formulations.

AN - 16022694; 2583973 AB - It seems so clear now. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has published a guide for owners of asbestos-containing buildings, which lists five "facts". Risks of asbestos-related diseases depend upon levels of exposure to airborne asbestos fibers. Data show that levels of asbestos inside buildings are low, and, accordingly, the associated health risk "appears to be very low". Removal of asbestos from buildings is often "not the best course of action," and improper removal can create a dangerous situation where none existed before. EPA requires removal only during demolition and renovation. EPA recommends an asbestos management program for all asbestos-containing materials.

AN - 16022494; 2594276 AB - A scholar with the Congressional Research Service called it "inevitable"--as American industry expands, resources are developed, and population grows, government will attempt to control this growth with increasing levels of regulation. Eventually this regulation will "collide with constitutional property rights." The day of that "collision" is here. Almost every day the federal government issues a new ream of regulations placing restrictions on the use of private property. And the Courts are more and more finding that this regulation treads on private property rights, necessitating "just compensation" to the owner.

AN - 16019487; 2591156 AB - Two Rhizobium strains were cultured on a defined medium; one was a normal strain of the cowpea group (ANU240) while the other (IC3342) was an unusual but related strain of the same group which induced abnormal shoot development, including proliferation of lateral buds, in nodulated plants. Culture supernatants were examined for the presence of cytokinins by mass spectrometry using deuterium-labelled internal standards and by radioimmunoassay. In culture supernatants of both strains a range of cytokinins was detected and quantified, but N super(6)-(2-isopentenyl)adenine (iP) and zeatin (Z) were the dominant cytokinins. These results appear to provide the first unambiguous identifications of cytokinins in Rhizobium) culture media. The cytokinin levels in xylem sap of pigeonpea plants inoculated with strain IC3342 was markedly greater than that in plants inoculated with a normal nodulating strain. JF - BIOCHEM. INT.

AN - 16016105; 2593593 AB - A cDNA library was constructed from embryonic chick claw mRNA and a claw keratin (cKer)-encoding clone was isolated and sequenced. Subsequently, a genomic clone, containing four cKer-encoding genes (cKer) was isolated and one of the genes (cKer1) was completely sequenced. The cKer1 gene appears to be differentially expressed in the keratinizing tissue appendages of the embryonic chick, being abundantly expressed in the claw and at a low level in feather tissue. Comparison of the deduced amino acid (aa) sequence of the cKer to those of feather (fKer) and scale keratins (sKer) showed that the regions conserved between fKer and sKer are also found in the cKer.

AN - 16013187; 2589635 AB - Eucalyptus paliformis is a rare species of the Wadbilliga Plateau in southeastern Australia. The hypothesis that rarity in E. paliformis is a result of restriction to a rare habitat was addressed by means of a floristic survey comparing sites where E. paliformis occurs with similar sites where it is not known to occur. Mathematical models describing mean annual rainfall and mean annual temperature regimens experienced in southeastern Australia were used to locate areas with a climate similar to E. paliformis sites. Understorey vegetation of E. paliformis sites was then compared with that of climatically similar areas using a stratified random sampling procedure. Similarity in floristic composition was used as an integrated measure of habitat similarity. Detrended correspondence analysis of the floristic data suggested that E. paliformis sites are unique.

This area encompasses the entire known range of the species. Bioclimatic analyses using the computer program BIOCLIM allowed the prediction and definition of the potential limits of the distribution of G. leadbeateri . This was used as a basis for selecting sites for surveys for G. leadbeateri outside the Victorian Central Highlands. G. leadbeateri was not detected in field surveys of these sites. The bioclimatic profile of G. leadbeateri was closely related to the bioclimatic profiles of several species of trees, Acacia frigiscens . However, none of the plants that were examined in the study could be used as an indicator of the presence of G. leadbeateri .

AN - 16007435; 2586344 AB - Factors influencing the presence and abundance of leadbeater's possum Gymnobelideus leadbeateri McCoy and the diversity and abundance of other species of arboreal marsupials in montane ash forests were determined from logistic and Poisson regression analyses. The presence of G. leadbeateri was related to the number of trees with hollows and the basal area of Acacia spp. There was a positive correlation between the abundance of the animal and the number of trees with hollows, the quantity of decorticating bark and a negative correlation with the number of shrubs and the slope of the site. The diversity of arboreal marsupials was greatest on sites with a large number of trees with hollows, a high basal area of Acacia spp., a large quantity of decorticating bark and south- or east-facing sites. A model containing similar variables was developed for the abundance of arboreal marsupials. This model also produced a significant negative correlation with the number of stumps resulting from timber harvesting operations.

A disjunct and unusual distribution occurs at Goonmirk Rocks, in north-east Victoria, in a montane, wet forest environment in which P. lawrencei grows as a procumbent and sometimes vertical tree up to 13 m tall. The communities in which P. lawrencei occurs at Goonmirk Rocks are described, and the population structure of P. lawrencei is determined using an age class model.

AN - 16005648; 2585925 AB - The red panda Ailurus fulgens is a species of special interest because it is taxonomically distinct (probably a monotypic subfamily) and may be threatened with extinction, at least in the Himalayan portion of its range. During a two-year study in Langtang National Park, Nepal, red pandas were habitat specialists that preferred fir-jhapra bamboo forests between 2800 and 3900 m (92% of radio locations of three males and three females). A GIS analysis estimated that this forest type comprises only 6% of the park and thus, given an estimated ecological density of 1 adult/2 multiplied by 9 km super(2), there were probably fewer than 40 adult pandas in the park, isolated into four or more populations. The pandas had low fecundity (typically one cub/female/year) and high mortality. Among 12-13 cubs recorded, only three survived beyond six months; four of nine known adults died during the study. Most deaths from known causes (57%) were human-related, and probably connected to the presence of cattle herders and dogs in the area during the monsoon birth season. Leaves of a single bamboo species, jhapra (probably Himalayacalamus falconeri)), comprised 54-100% of the diet seasonally, with bamboo shoots, Sorbus fruits and mushrooms comprising the balance.

AN - 15978819; 2547105 AB - Remediation of PCB contaminated waterways by dredging has historically been postponed by concerns of sediment/contaminant resuspension and migration. However, recent results from EPA's and the Corps' of Engineers work at New Bedford Harbor Superfund site is likely to change that perception. EPA and the Corps successfully completed a pilot scale dredging study at the site supported by real-time data collected under actual operating conditions. As part of the Pilot Study, Ebasco conducted a real time ambient air monitoring to evaluate the airborne release of contaminants from sediment dredging/disposal activities. The results indicated that under properly controlled conditions, PCB contaminated sediment could be dredged and disposed in a shoreline facility without adversely impacting air quality. The results of this study are applicable to the remediation of contaminated waterways.

All isolated strains, tested by tissue culture assay, DNA-DNA hybridization and ELISA, were cytotoxic to Vero cells, did not lose their toxin genes and continued to produce cholera toxin. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that V. cholerae can survive in the environment without losing potential pathogenicity.

A dose of 10 super(11) cells when fed orally mimicked natural infection in having invaded epithelial cells, but was otherwise clinically non-reactogenic. Animals immunized with two oral doses, each dose consisting of 1 x 10 super(11) mutant bacteria, were fully protected when challenged. Titres of serum antibodies increased by about 11-fold of the base level in animals immunized with a dose of 10 super(11) cells. In some monkeys of a particular group, congestive patches were seen in the stomach, but not in any other part of the gut, after the animals were fed with the virulent parent strain. The lesions were relatively severe in the immunized groups of animals.

AN - 15974613; 2550023 AB - The gene cluster (rfb region) which determines the biosynthesis of the Shigella flexneri O-antigen of the Y serotype specificity was cloned from a S. flexneri serotype 2a strain. Two plasmids, pPM2212 and pPM2213, which conferred O-antigen biosynthesis were generated from separate cosmid clones by deletion with ClaI. These plasmids expressed O-antigen in Escherichia coli K12 like that of the parental strain. These plasmids also mediated O-antigen expression in an E. coli K12 rfb-delete background, indicating that all the necessary genes have been cloned. A detailed restriction map of the region has been constructed and analysis of various subclones has allowed the limits of the coding region for O-antigen biosynthesis to be defined to a maximum of 11 kb. Expression of these plasmids demonstrates a novel phenotype associated with control of lipopolysaccharide chain length.

AN - 15974536; 2545057 AB - A dead, entangled leopard seal, Hydurga leptonyx , was found on the east coast of Tasmania, Australia at Taylors Bay on 28 August 1990, while surveying the coast for marine debris and entangled wildlife. Sex could not be determined because the animal was badly decomposed, with the ribs exposed and fur remaining only on the head and flippers. The seal was entangled in two pieces of black monofilament long-line which had three, 2.5-cm hooks attached. Leopard seals are occasional visitors to our waters in late spring, as they migrate south to the Antarctic after winter feeding around southern Australia. This spring, the Department of Parks, Wildlife and Heritage rangers on the east coast of Tasmania have had frequent reports of seals following fishing trawlers. This appears to be the first record of an entangled leopard sea. JF - Marine Mammal Science AU - Slater, J AD - Dep. Parks, Wildl. and Heritage, G.P.O.

AN - 15970247; 2549764 AB - In the course of an attempt to identify genes that encode Escherichia coli dihydropteridine reductase (DHPR) activities, a chromosomal DNA fragment that directs synthesis of two soluble polypeptides of M sub(r) 44 000 and 46 000 was isolated. These proteins were partially purified and were identified by determination of their N-terminal amino acid sequences. The larger was serine hydroxymethyltransferase, encoded by the glyA gene, while the smaller was the previously described product of an unnamed gene closely linked to glyA, and transcribed in the opposite direction. Soluble extracts of E. coli) cells that overproduced the 44 kDa protein had elevated DHPR activity, and were yellow in colour. Their visible absorption spectra were indicative of a CO-binding b-type haemoprotein that is high-spin in the reduced state. We conclude that E. coli produces a soluble haemoglobin-like protein, the product of the hmp gene (for haemoprotein).

Response of termites to Gloeophyllum trabeum grown on different species of wood (Isoptera: Mastotermitidae, Termopsidae, Rhinotermitidae, Termitidae). AN - 15968570; 2550315 AB - The activity of groups of termites from 12 sources, representing nine species, on wood of Eucalyptus regnans, Fagus sylvatica and Pinus elliottii , decayed to 0, 5, 10 and 15% by the brown-rot fungus Gloeophyllum trabeum and sterilized by mild heat (40 degree C for 48 h), was recorded. Fagus sylvatica was the most favourable species of timber overall. Most of the observed changes in wood consumption, wood consumption adjusted for survival and survival were a continuum, with values either increasing or remaining at the same level or declining as the decay rate changed. In two data sets on the impact of G. trabeum on caste development (i.e. change in the proportion of progressive and regressive moults in nymphs of Porotermes adamsoni and the number of neotenics in groups of Reticulotermes flavipes ) the direction of trends was reversed from one decay level to the next. Hence, conflicting results can occur within a relatively small difference in decay levels. Thus when describing the results of termite/fungus/wood interactions the inclusion of the decay rate and not just the species and source of organisms to the specifications of the system under study may be even more important than previously thought.

The same was done for A. cyclops and Pterocelastrus tricuspidatus in strandveld with alkaline soils high in P. The Acacia spp. had twice the leaf N concentrations of the indigenous species, whereas P concentrations were highest in the strandveld species. The Acacia spp. tended to produce more litter, with three times the N content of that of the indigenous species. No significant differences in P return were found between the acacias and indigenous species in either vegetation. Decomposition turnover times were longer in the fynbos species than those of the strandveld.

AN - 15967203; 2542168 AB - A plasmid vector was constructed that encodes the expression in Escherichia coli of a truncated form of GST2, a human Alpha-class glutathione transferase. The truncated enzyme, GST2del210, has 12 residues deleted from the C-terminus and has the last two residues of the new C-terminal mutated from aspartic acid and glutamic acid to histidine and glycine respectively. The results show that the C-terminal segment of the Alpha-class glutathione transferases may form a component of the hydrophobic substrate-binding site. In contrast, this region appears not to be directly involved in GSH binding and is not absolutely essential for catalytic activity.

AN - 15964233; 2539362 AB - Langtang National Park in the Nepal Himalayas provides resources for about 30,000 people living in and around the park. The park is the site of two cheese factories that produce 14,000 kg of cheese per year for marketing in Kathmandu. The factories collect about 140,000 liters of milk annually and use well over 100,000 kg of fuel wood to process the milk into cheese. Loans and one-year advance payments encourage farmers to maintain large herds of chauri (a yak-cattle hybrid), and in many areas overgrazing has resulted. The presence in the area of large herds of chauri, their herders, and dogs has led to the death of many red pandas, a species that is probably on the verge of extinction in Langtang. It is estimated that there are fewer than 40 red pandas and these are isolated in four or more populations. Their fecundity is low and mortality is high. This problem might be solved by reducing cheese production and restricting the number of chauri while commensurately increasing the price of cheese so that farmers' income from milk could remain the same.

AN - 15961528; 2531298 AB - A human cytochrome P4502C9 cDNA clone has been isolated from a human liver bacteriophage Lambda gt11 library using oligonucleotide probes. Expression of the 1762 base pair cDNA in COS cells demonstrated that the encoded enzyme has a molecular mass of 55 kDa as determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The data demonstrate that a single isozyme can catalyse the hydroxylations of both tolbutamide and phenytoin, and suggest that both reactions are mediated by the same isozyme(s) of cytochrome P450 in human liver.

AN - 15950489; 2536915 AB - Detection of micronuclei (MN) in skin cells from HRA/Skh hairless mice treated with chemical or physical agents may prove informative in qualitative and quantitative studies of skin carcinogenesis. MN induction and cell survival were estimated in cytokinesis-blocked keratinocytes, cultured for 4 days in vitro, after a single topical dose of various organic compounds. Treatment with 2.56 mu g (10 nmol) 7,12-dimethylbenz(a) anthracene (DMBA) resulted in maximal MN induction in cells removed from skin 12-24 hr after topical administration (79-88 MN/1,000 cells compared with 10-16 MN/1,000 cells in acetone-treated controls). Even in cells removed only 1 hr after DMBA treatment, a significant increase in MN was evident. To allow sufficient time for metabolic activation, a sampling time of 24 hr was adopted for all test substances. Dose-dependent increases in MN were observed with DMBA, benzo(a)pyrene, chrysene, and urethane. Increased numbers of micronucleated cells were detected at the lowest doses administered in the present study (0.128, 0.5, 50, and 50 mu g, respectively). Although reduced cell recovery occurred following exposure of mice to acetone, pyrene, and other chemicals, there was no evidence that cytotoxicity contributed to MN scored in keratinocytes.

AN - 15949752; 2527698 AB - Fusobacterium nucleatum ATCC 10953, a type strain of one of the newly proposed subspecies of this group of organisms, was grown anaerobically in continuous culture in a chemically defined medium. Its response to conditions of varying pH, nutritional environment, and imposed growth rate were then examined. The organism failed to grow at pH 7.8 but grew at pH 5.8, although the cell yield was greatly reduced. At pH 6.8 the cell yield was halved and less than 50% of available glucose was consumed. The optimum growth pH was around 7.4 when the culture appeared to be limited for both glucose and the amino acids glutamate, histidine and serine. Some intracellular polyglucose (IP) was produced and acetate, butyrate and ammonia were the major fermentation end-products, as they were under all growth conditions tested. Increasing the available glucose or amino acids did not alter cell numbers but the amount of IP was greatly increased.

A note on allometric variation and sexual size dimorphisms in raptors. AN - 15942961; 2517626 AB - Allometric variation in testis length was used to test the prediction that the testes of males of raptor species with non-reversed dimorphism in size (NRSD; males larger sex) are proportionally smaller than those of males of species with reversed dimorphism in size (RSD; females larger). Testis length-body weight relationships of 17 species of mainly Australian raptors were analyzed. After removal of body weight as a variable, testes of males of NRSD raptors were significantly smaller than those of RSD males. No relationship with degree of dimorphism was detected. These findings accord with the hypothesis that in the dimorphic raptors (both NRSD and RSD) it is the larger sex that has significantly diverged in size (through sexual selection). That the males of NRSD raptors have increased in size without an equivalent increase in testis size points to a possible difference in their breeding tactics from RSD raptors. It might be expected that, unlike RSD males, these large males guard their females to lessen the chance of promiscuous mating and cuckoldry, and that they copulate less frequently than the males of RSD species.

AN - 15941767; 2527473 AB - Weekly observations at a sampling station in Storm Bay, Tasmania, over a period of 4 years from Mar 1985 to Mar 1989 have shown a 2.5 degree C warming of sea surface temperature (SST) since the cool, windy summer of 1986-87. The samplings station lies close to the northern edge of the subtropical convergence. The increase in subtropical influence was coincident with a reduction in the westerly wind stress in the period 1987-89. As SST increased, the depth of winter mixing decreased in the offshore oceanic waters. Interannual variability in the westerly wind stress was only observed as a change in the power of a significant 40 day oscillation in the wind. Calm years were marked by a reduction in the power of the 40 day oscillation in the westerlies. Phosphate concentrations in Storm Bay in the summer of 1988-89 were 1/2 of the concentrations measured in 1985. Winter nitrate concentrations in 1988 were also 1/2 of average. Total nitrogen, phosphorus and DOC concentrations in surface waters fell steadily throughout the sampling period. Pulses of algal growth (measured as chlorophyll) followed peaks in the 40 day wind oscillation and resulted from the resuspension of nutrients regenerated by decomposition in bottom waters. The very oligotrophic conditions of the summer of 1988-89 led to small copepods dominating, and the elimination of all large zooplankters.

Serum was tested for anti-ARS antibodies using a solid phase radioimmunoassay. The antisera bound to ARS conjugated to the synthetic copolymer glutamic acid super(60) tyrosine super(30) when diluted as high as 1:4096. Following multiple injections of 100 mu g of arsanilic acid-ovalbumin compound, mortality on injection with sodium arsenite 0.87 mg/kg i.p. one week later decreased to 0 deaths in 22 pretreated mice vs 9 deaths in 29 untreated mice (31% mortality). No decrease in mortality was noted at higher challenges (1.15 mg/kg) of sodium arsenite.

AN - 15935679; 2517252 AB - Poisson regression analyses were used to relate the number of hollow-bearing trees on 523 sites in the montane ash forests of the Central Highlands of Victoria to a range of environmental variables. Region, logging history, the dominant species of eucalypt, slope angle, topographic position and the age of the stand influenced significantly the number of hollow-bearing trees. A simple predictive model containing these factors has possible application in geographic information systems and may assist in the assessment of wildlife habitat. The number of multi-aged stands and living trees with fire scars indicates that some individuals of "fire-sensitive" montane ash eucalypts appear to survive intense wildfire.

AN - 15929704; 2509423 AB - Three tree core samples of Norway spruce (Picea abies ) have been analysed by PIXE. The concentration profiles for 17 elements heavier than sodium have been determined by means of one PIXE measurement every 2 mm along the samples. The samples were collected at Faexboda, an experimental area north of Uppsala where artificially acidified and limed environmental experiments are made. One sample from each of an acidified, a limed and a reference area has been collected. The main interest is focused on potassium, calcium, manganese, iron, copper and zinc.

AN - 15927864; 2511315 AB - The paper illustrates analysis of the assumptions of the statistical component of a hybrid modelling approach for predicting environmental extremes. This shows how to assess the applicability of the approach to water quality problems. The analysis involves data on stream acidity from the Birkenes catchment in Norway. The modelling approach is hybrid in that it uses: a deterministic or process-based description to simulate (non-stationary) long term trend values of environmental variables, and probability distributions which are superimposed on the trend values to characterise the frequency of shorter term concentrations. This permits assessment of management strategies and of sensitivity to climate variables by adjusting the values of major forcing variables in the trend model. Knowledge of the variability about the trend is provided by: identification of an appropriate parametric form of the probability density function (pdf) of the environmental attribute (e.g stream acidity variables) whose extremes are of interest, and estimation of pdf parameters using the output of the trend model.

It encoded a 129-residue protein with a calculated molecular weight of 14021 D and had the expected high homology (88%) with Der p II including the absence of N-glycosylation sites and conserved cysteine residues. These results are consistent with the high degree of antibody crossreactivity and may help identify the differences in T-cell epitopes revealed for these molecules so far.

AN - 15920166; 2509740 AB - Surveys were made of the macroinvertebrates at several locations on the Blackwood River, Western Australia, and the Glenelg River, Victoria. Both rivers have drainage basins subject to salinization from agricultural practices. The Blackwood River has a clear longitudinal salinity profile in which the upper reaches are more saline than lower ones. Multivariate analysis using DECORANA and TWINSPAN did not reveal relationships between macroinvertebrate community composition and salinity. It is suggested that either the present macroinvertebrate fauna of Australian rivers is more tolerant to salinity than has been assumed, or now represents only halotolerant forms of a once more diverse fauna.

AN - 15918891; 2514875 AB - Five populations of the cladoceran Simocephalus vetulus (O.F. Mueller) examined by enzyme electrophoresis at four to five loci revealed high levels of genetic variation. The one intermittent population had genotype frequencies in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the three permanent populations showed deviations from equilibrium of varying magnitude. The fifth population was fixed for a single clone, and was possibly recently derived from a single ephippial hatchling.

AN - 15898824; 2476120 AB - Four hundred ninety-eight patients treated in the USA in 1978 for cancer of the cervix by external beam and intracavitary irradiation have been studied to determine the effect of using a single intracavitary (IC) application versus more than one. Most of the patients (46%) underwent intracavitary (IC) treatment after external radiation therapy (RT), 40% during external RT, and 14% prior to external RT. The incidence of major complications was the same in both groups. An analysis of patient characteristics and other variables that would explain the difference in results revealed that older patients, worse Karnofsky, and more parametrial involvement accrued more in the 1 IC group. Higher paracentral point doses were administered when greater than or equal to 2 IC applications were used; this group also received higher bladder and rectal doses and lower whole pelvic doses. The use of two or more intracavitary insertions affords an opportunity to administer higher paracentral point doses, which appear to be related to higher pelvic tumor control, lower rate of distant metastasis, and better survival.

AN - 15893211; 2495334 AB - A simple procedure is described for reproducible detection of double stranded (ds) RNAs in leafroll infected grapevines. The procedure involves the extractions of tissues by a medium which preferentially yields dsRNA. The RNA is purified by CF11 cellulose chromatography and gel electrophoresis. The dsRNAs varied in size in different vines. In the cases tested they did not cross hybridize and occurred at higher concentrations in stem cortex tissues than in leaves. They were not detectable in healthy vines, could be passaged with the disease to healthy plants by graft inoculation and removed by virus elimination procedures. These observations indicated that the dsRNAs are of viral origin and that a number of viruses are associated with the grapevine leafroll disease.

Assay systems containing sand and various substrates or finely-ground straw were inoculated with soil:water (1:5) extracts prepared from these soils. Straw decomposed at all the levels of pH tested (initial pH 5.5-9.6) although decomposition was inhibited partially in the presence of added clay (5% montmorillonite). Nitrogenase activity by free-living bacterial, extracted from both soils, was best when the initial pH was 7-7.5, regardless of the pH of the original soil (Gunnedah, pH 7.4; Cowra, pH 5.6). At pH-values outside the 7-7.5 range, nitrogenase activity decreased. The effect of clay on nitrogenase activity by bacteria extracted from each of the soils was complex.

AN - 15890477; 2489194 AB - A conservative calculation of the number of albatrosses killed annually on Japanese longlines in southern oceans is 44,000. The actual figure could be double and is sufficiently high to substantiate claims that serious declines in albatross populations are due to this fishing activity. Albatrosses have an economic impact on longline fisheries with annual losses to the southern bluefin tuna fishery alone exceeding $A7 million. If all fish species and the total longlining effort were considered, it would be many millions of dollars greater. Apart from a concern for albatrosses, Japan's longline fishermen would also benefit by using the solutions offered. It is suggested that a 70% reduction in the problem is possible and that an overall reduction in excess of 90% could be achieved. Further monitoring is essential.

Wendl., an alien invasive shrub of coastal fynbos, and Protea repens (L.) L., an indigenous shrub, were grown in pots, as single seedlings and as a mixture. These were amended with one of a range of treatments representing a broad gradient in nutrient availability. When grown in isolation, both species displayed increases in dry mass, and leaf nitrogen and phosphorus contents in response to increasing levels of nutrient availability. A. saligna however, exhibited a greater response than P. repens , particularly at high levels of nutrient availability. No significant differences in root/shoot ratio were found in response to variation in nutrient availability, but A. saligna consistently allocated a greater proportion of its total dry mass to below-ground growth.

AN - 15874888; 2467057 AB - The binding of unsubstituted peptides to Streptococcus sanguis and Streptococcus mutans and their subsequent degradation by such cells were examined. Peptides were added to cell suspensions prepared from glucose-limited growth in a chemostat and cell-free filtrates were analyzed for peptides and their constituent amino acid residues by high-pressure liquid chromatography techniques. Peptide hydrophobicity plays a limited role in peptide binding, but charge and chain-length are probably important. In S. sanguis , carboxypeptidase activity rapidly released C-terminal arginine (Arg); this amino acid was less rapidly released from the N-terminus but a number of other residues were also released by aminopeptidase activity. When Arg is buried in the peptide, the rate of its release depends upon the number and type of residues between it and the N-terminus. S. mutans possessed only weak peptidase activities. The nature of its peptidase activities indicates that S. sanguis can obtain the metabolically important Arg from a variety of peptides.

AN - 15863786; 2450164 AB - The biochemical compositions of 16 species of microalgae commonly used in mariculture were determined. The species examined were six diatoms (Chaetoceros calcitrans, Chaetoceros gracilis , Nitzchia closterium, Phaeodactylum tricornutum , Skeletonema costatum, Thalassiosira pseudonana ), four prymnesiophytes (Isochrysis galbana, Isochrysis aff. galbana , (T-iso), Pavlova lutheri, Pavlova salina ), two prasinophytes (Tetraselmis chui, Tetraselmis suecica ), two chlorophytes (Dunaliella tertiolecta, Nannochloris atomus ), one eustigmatophyte (Nannochloropsis oculata ) and one cryptophyte (Chroomonas salina (Wislouch) Butcher). The amino-acid compositions were compared with those of oyster Crassostrea gigas larvae to assess the protein quality of the microalgae. The levels of the essential amino-acids in the microalgae were either similar to or greater than the levels of the same amino acids in oyster larvae, thus indicating a high protein quality for all microalgal species.

AN - 15836324; 2439349 AB - The nematode fauna of an estuarine mangrove Avicennia marina mudflat in Southeastern Australia has been intensively studied. About 85% of the nematodes occur in the top cm of soft mud, but 5-7 species inhabit the deeper anoxic mud down to 10 cm, both at low and high tide. At the low tide zone 58% of the nematodes were epistrate feeders, including many diatom-feeders, but in the mangrove zone selective microbial feeders made up over 60% of the population, while between high water neap and high water spring, above the mangrove zone, omnivore/predators and plant root feeding nematodes increased in relative importance. Nematode densities (maximum 5 x 10 super(6)/m super(2)) were not as high as have been reported from non-mangrove estuaries in other countries, but were within the range found in mangroves elsewhere in Australia. Margalef Species Richness values ranged from 1.7 to 3.89, which is similar to values found in other mangroves mudflats in Australia. Nematode biomass ranged from 888 mg dry weight/m super(2) (383 mg C/m super(2)) at the low tide zone to 19 mg dry weight/m super(2) (8 mg C/m super(2)) at the upper tide level.

AN - 15834043; 2426262 AB - The idea that different species must have distinct ecologies if they are to coexist has been challenged recently by the claim that some models involving stochastic factors or clumped spatial distributions permit stable coexistence of species that are identical or differ only in competitive ability. However, these models have been misinterpreted; except in rather limited circumstances, they provide further support for the notion that species must be sufficiently ecologically distinct to coexist stably.

AN - 15829850; 2429029 AB - Laboratory experiments were carried out with pilot-scale experimental unit of Coarse Media Slow Sand Filter (CMSSF). A 2.7 m high filter column with a diameter of 0.56 m was operated with the filter media size of 1-2 mm and media depth of 1.0 m at filtration rates of 0.5 and 0.2 m super(3)/m super(2)h. This was connected to a circular concrete fish tank with a diameter of 1.16 m. The performance of CMSSF was compared with the 1.5 m x 1.0 m x 1.0 m Biological Filter (BF) operated at a filtration rate of 1.92 m super(3)/m super(2)h which was connected to 8 fish tanks. Experimental results showed that CMSSF has comparatively higher removal efficiency than BF for turbidity, total phosphorous, nitrogen and organic carbon. This study is an initial attempt to introduce CMSSF as a treatment unit in a recirculating aquaculture system which would be an economical solution to improve the water quality and production in aquaculture.

ECGs of exposed workers displayed a statistically significant higher prevalence of ECG pathological changes, higher P amplitude and Macruz index, longer P duration, longer crude and corrected Q-T intervals and R-R intervals, and shorter P-R segments than did controls. However, P-R intervals and heart rates of the two groups were not markedly different. Values of ECG components were not related to duration of CDS exposure, and no notable difference was observed between duration of exposure of exposed subjects with and of those without pathological ECG changes.

Long-term chemical carcinogenesis studies could easily be designed, using laboratory rodents fed diets containing fish caught in these waters. Induced cancers in rodents would corroborate field observations in fish, and positive results would provide further evidence of potential human health hazards stemming from the ingestion of substantial amounts of contaminated fish. However, fish and shellfish should still be viewed as environmental bioindicators of pollution or of potential human health hazards.

The selection of end points, the severity of outcomes, the interrelationship among adverse outcomes, evidence from reproductive toxicology and specificity of reproductive effects from the environmental agent are issues to be evaluated. Other factors to weigh include the frequency of occurrence of an event and consequent statistical power to assess changes, time and money resource requirements for measuring the outcome, and burden of measurement on the study population. Reproductive risk assessment should include measures of fecundability, fetal loss, and infant health.

The detection of DNA- or protein-carcinogen adducts in aquatic foodstuffs can serve as an indicator of prior carcinogen exposure. In addition, the presence of DNA adducts would suggest a mutagenic/carcinogenic risk to the aquatic organism itself. Vertebrate fish are characterized by high levels of carcinogen metabolism, low body burdens of carcinogen, and the formation of carcinogenic macromolecule adducts. Shellfish have low levels of carcinogen metabolism, high body burdens of carcinogens, and little evidence of adducts or tumors. The consumption of carcinogen adducts in aquatic foodstuffs is unlikely to pose a human health hazard.

Slight elevations in Pb levels were detected in the placental body of late fetal deaths and preterm births as well as in cord tissues associated with preterm births and premature rupture of membranes. The geometric mean Pb concentration in the membranes from late fetal deaths was 2.73 mu g/g dry tissue, 3.5 times higher than the mean found in normal births. Low correlations of membrane and antenatal blood Pb levels imply that other factors, in addition to environmental Pb exposure, influence the amount of Pb accumulated in placental membranes.

Several models, currently used for risk projection to estimate lung cancer in the US from indoor radon exposure, are critiqued. Recent miner epidemiology confirms that excess lung cancer risk decreases with time subsequent to cessation of exposure. The most rigorous ecological study conducted to date shows a persistent negative relationship between average measured indoor Rn in US counties and lung cancer mortality. A proposed model for lung cancer risk that includes smoking, urbanization, and Rn exposure factors helps explain the difficulties in observing the direct effects of indoor Rn in the environment.

Results provide strong evidence supporting the hypothesis that liver neoplasms and other liver lesions in this species are the result of exposure to sediment-associated toxic chemicals. Significant and consistent statistical associations have been demonstrated between levels of aromatic hydrocarbons in sediment and prevalences of idiopathic liver lesions. Similar types of idiopathic hepatic lesions have been detected in white croaker captured from contaminated marine sites off Los Angeles, CA. Data are insufficient to conclusively establish the existence of a human health risk from consumption of pollutant-exposed English sole and other fish species affected by hepatic neoplasms or related lesions.

Regression slopes did not vary markedly among subjects exposed to episodes of high total suspended particulate concentrations, but there was evidence of heterogeneity in studies of ozone exposures. The latter finding is consistent with epidemiologic and chamber studies of O sub( 3) exposures. The lack of evidence for heterogeneous response to particulate exposures implies that observed variation in response can be explained by sampling variability rather than the presence of sensitive subgroups.

The determination of diet history is complicated by latency issues, while the low frequency of cancer as an end point reduces the statistical power of research. These factors are examined in relation to the study designs most frequently employed in epidemiology. The use of biomarkers for persistent chemicals may be useful in mitigating the difficulty in determining exposure. Reliance on more prevalent and timely end points, such as carcinogen-DNA adducts or oncogene proteins, may make latency and rarity problems more manageable.

About 35% of the clams sampled at Dennysville had germinomas. These estuaries had been contaminated with herbicides in a 1979 accidental spray overdrift during aerial application of Tordon 101 to adjacent forests. Herbicide applications at Searsport, where 22% of the clams displayed germinomas, and at Roque Bluffs, showing in 3% of the specimens sampled, were also confirmed. Herbicide contamination is the only common factor at all three sites where clams were found with gonadal neoplasms.

The induction of P-450 in fish can accelerate the disposition of hydrocarbons and also enhance the formation of carcinogenic derivatives of PAHs. Induction of P-450 forms can indicate the exposure of fish to PAHs, PCBs, and other toxic compounds. Environmental induction has been detected in fish from polluted areas by use of catalytic assay, antibodies to fish P-450, and cDNA probes that hybridize with P-450 messenger RNA. These methods can provide sensitive biomonitoring tools that can detect environmental contamination of fish by some carcinogens and tumor promoters.

Tumor incidence was highest in the renal excretory epithelium, followed by gill, gonad, gastrointestinal, heart, and embryonic neural tissues. The exposed oysters biomagnified high concentrations of PCBs, PAHs, and chlorinated pesticides. Such uptake also can occur in blue mussels, and when winter flounder were fed mussels that were contaminated by sediment exposure, they contained the same xenobiotic chemicals analyzed in mussels. The fish developed renal and pancreatic neoplasms and hepatotoxic neoplastic precursor lesions, demonstrating trophic transfer of sediment-bound carcinogens up the food chain.

Analyses of seafood and sediment contamination in 1987 revealed elevated levels of several complex organic pollutants. A risk assessment of seafood consumption revealed an estimate of a plausible upperbound, excess-cancer-risk in the 10 super(-5) to 10 super( -2) range. The findings are comparable with those of other seafood contamination risk assessments for areas where consumption advisories and fishing restrictions were implemented. Regulatory responses included consumption advisories for lobster hepatopancreas and other types of locally caught seafood.

Both laboratory and field studies show that low levels of a few low-molecular-weight PAHs may be present in edible tissues of fish from contaminated areas and that high molecular weight PAHs, such as the carcinogen benzo[ alpha ]pyrene, will rarely be detected because of extensive metabolism. Interactions between xenobiotics can affect both biochemical and physological systems to alter PAH disposition in fish, but these interactions do not drastically change the relative proportions of metabolites to parent PAH in tissues. Techniques are needed that measure PAH metabolites in edible tissue so as to determine human health risks stemming from eating these fish.

There is a high incidence of EFLs, and the interval between exposure and end points is the short duration between conception and event. Cancer, the primary end point evaluated in risk assessment models, occurs with much lower frequency, and the latency period is measured in years or decades. Advances in methodologies demonstrate the feasibility and utility of performing population-based studies of EFLs. A scheme for assessing EFLs in risk assessment studies is illustrated, using lead exposure in utero as an example.

Data suggest that some epizootics of neoplasia of hepatocellular, cholangiocellular, epidermal, and oral epithelial origin may be causally related to contaminant exposure. Concern for the safety of consuming fish affected with neoplasms may be misdirected, as direct transmission of cancer by ingesting cancerous tissue seems unlikely. A major concern is the matter of toxic and carcinogenic chemicals present in edible fish that exhibit neoplasia as a symptom of past exposure from living in polluted waters. Ample evidence implies that those chemicals ingested through contaminated Great Lakes fish may already be affecting both human and ecosystem health.

Mechanical containment using booms and skimmers had a maximal recovery capability of 20 per cent under favourable conditions, but effectiveness could be improved by installing heavy duty skimmers on large vessels already operating commercially in strategic areas. Although modern dispersants had relatively low toxicity to marine organisms, they were not used widely in the U.S.A. as their effectiveness was uncertain. Controlled small-scale burning achieved high removal rates but produced atmospheric pollution and oil residues. Important non-technological factors in oil spill response included the respective roles of government and polluter, decision making and co-ordination systems, logistics, quality of personnel and equipment and regulatory requirements.

Prepared for the Committee on Education and Labor. U.S. House of Representatives. One Hundred First Congress, Second Session. AN - 62998951; ED328654 AB - This report concerns inequity in public school finance and its impact on students who, because of economic disadvantage or other factors, are at risk of educational failure. The study examines how resources are distributed under state systems for financing public education. Findings indicate that the prevalent system of financing public schools through heavy reliance on locally raised property taxes leads to widespread disparities in expenditures among public school districts within states. Recent state court decisions have revived the movement, begun in the 1970s and early 1980s, to reform school finance systems through litigation. The study finds that inequitable systems of school finance inflict disproportionate harm on minority and economically disadvantaged students. Educators have reached substantial agreement that several types of educational services are important, and in some cases vital, to the success of at-risk students. Because of a lack of resources, many of these services are inadequate or are not provided at all to children in property-poor districts. A more equitable distribution of resources by states to local school districts could reduce the costs of assuring effective educational services to at-risk children. An appendix discussing school finance litigation prior to 1989 and three statistical tables are included. (AF) AU - Taylor, William L. AU - Piche, Dianne M.

Early methods of exposing the blind to printed text included tactile alphabets, braille, & talking books. The time-consuming nature of these methods limited their usefulness. The past decade's advances in computer technology has introduced electronic communication & information processing that increased media access for blind persons. Computerized telephone reading services can be stored on computer disk & accessed at any time of day, unlike radio reading services. Other on-line activities include shopping, banking, business & financial information, travel schedules, sending mail, & accessing library catalogs & reference materials. Output from these services can be accessed through synthesized speech, paperless braille, or large print. The increased use of graphical user interfaces, touch screens, & fax machines may reduce the accessibility of some of these services in the future. 1 Reference.

AN - 14270732; 10446822 AB - Gills of the teleost tench, Tinca tinca, subjected to acute experimental lead nitrate poisoning were the focus of a microscopic, ultrastructural, and morphometric study. Lesions were manifest by the appearance of edema and epithelial hyperplasia and necrosis, both in cells forming part of the filtration barrier and in those in the interlamellar space. The death of fish was documented after 12-15 d of exposure to 75 ppm lead nitrate, at which point the Pb concentrations in gills had reached maximum.

Current biomedical consensus accepts that blood Pb levels as low as 5-15 mu g/deciliter are risky during all stages of life. In adults, Pb at low doses is associated with increased blood pressure, and chronic exposure has been linked in cohort studies with kidney disease and cancer. The diverse sources that contribute to current Pb exposure of the general public include Pb-based paint, contaminated soils, drinking water, food, and consumer products.

The characteristic acute, predominantly cerebellar encephalopathy associated with neonatal high-Pb exposure is distinguished from the subtle, axo-dendritic disorganization associated with low-level neonatal inorganic Pb super(2+) exposure. Neurotransmitter system abnormalities have been described with inorganic Pb super( 2+); abnormalities of aminoboutyric acid and glutamate metabolism are found with organolead species. Testable hypotheses that may provide an insight into the pathogenesis underlying neuronal development under the influence of inorganic or organolead intoxication are presented.

Current research in this field focuses on the definition of dose-response relationships, especially at low exposure levels. Emphasis is being placed on the development of biochemical and physiologic markers of subclinical toxicity. To document more accurate data on cumulative individual exposure to Pb, future studies will increasingly use x-ray fluorescence analysis for determination of bone Pb content.

Pb exposure induced a hypernoradrenergic innervation of central nervous system tissue; the increased innervation was observed structurally as well as functionally. This ingrowth may explain the profound slowing of discharge of cerebellar neurons recorded in grafts of Pb-treated animals. Analyses of other tissues suggest that increased axonal growth is a general problem of Pb intoxication that encompasses many brain areas.

An association was determined between high particulate concentrations and increased mortality. This association persists after adjustment for temperature, relative humidity, year, and season. The magnitude of the mortality-linked particulate effect appears to be the same or larger than that estimated for London, UK, despite cleaner air in Santa Clara County. The persistence of an effect at the lower particulate levels recorded indicates that the particulate variable can serve as a surrogate for some constituent particles.

The human data from his research are reviewed, as are human neurotoxicology studies performed in the 1970s to demonstrate progress made in this field in the last 15 years. Seven methodological flaws have impeded accurate investigation of Pb toxicity at low doses. The principles behind these errors are considered, and the relationship between Pb exposure and antisocial behavior is explored. Primary prevention should focus on the effective removal of Pb from housing stock.

Four culturally shaped sources of Pb exposure are identified: modern and historic technological sources; food consumption habits; culturally defined health beliefs; and beauty aids. Examples cited include the use of Pb-glazed cooking pottery in Mexican-American households, folk medical use of Pb in Hispanic, Arabic, and Asian communities, and the use of Pb as a cosmetic in Southeast Asian and Near Eastern cultures. Knowledge deficiencies, communication resistance, and other interacting cultural conditions that create barriers to Pb exposure reduction are explored.

Pb poisoning can disrupt the development of neural networks by inappropriately activating specific protein kinases. Stimulation of these enzymes by Pb may also disrupt blood-brain barrier development and alter the precise regulation of the neuronal environment required for normal brain function.

Pb was measured in whole blood prenatally in mothers and at quarterly intervals in 297 infants. The mean prenatal blood Pb level was 8 mu g/deciliter, but about 25% of the infants had at least one serial blood Pb level of 25 mu g/deciliter or higher during the second year of life. Statistically significant relationships were determined between prenatal and neonatal blood Pb level and three- and six-month cognitive/psychomotor development test scores. However, no statistically significant effects of Pb exposure on neurobehavioral development were evident by age two.

By age five, they appear to have recovered from this early insult. Change in performance during 24-57 months of age was analyzed in relation to level of postnatal Pb exposure and socioeconomic factors. Among children with high prenatal exposure, greater recovery of function was linked with lower bood Pb level at 57 months, higher socioeconomic status, higher maternal IQ, and female gender.

The backward stepwise regression analysis for sway area response during the eyes-closed, no-foam test showed a significant relationship with peak or maximum blood Pb level during the second year of life. The findings suggest the hypothesis that if the maximum blood Pb level had caused some level of impairment in functional capacities or interconnectivity of the vestibular and/or proprioception systems at age two, it can be assumed that the redundancy in postural afferent systems would adapt to rely more on the remaining intact afferent system.

At midpregnancy, 602 women in Titova Mitrovica, the site of a large Pb smelter, and 900 women in Pristina, a control town, were examined. Blood Pb levels were substantially higher in the smelter town. About 86% of the pregnant women in Titova Mitrovica, but only 3.4% of those in Pristina, had blood Pb levels greater than 10 mu g/deciliter.

Both chemicals behaved as cardiotoxic agents when administered as aqueous solutions; AA was at least twice as active than AL. AA induced myocardial infarcts resembling those in human beings at doses as low as 0.24 mg/kg body weight, as well as a prominent acanthocytosis. When administered as a liposome suspension, AL was about 300 times more toxic than in aqueous solution, although the cardiac damage was not infarctual.

Children living in the areas with medium to high levels of air pollution expirienced more respiratory symptoms than did those living in the low-pollution area. Relative risk values were in the range of 1.38 for sputum with cold and 1.81 for sputum without cold for children in the high-pollution area and 1.0 for children from the low-pollution area. However, no consistent trend of reduced pulmonary ailments characterized any residential area.

Concurrent increases in tapwater Al and decreases in pH were noted at two homes in the water distribution system. Lead concentrations in one home frequently exceeded recommended levels, and considerable spatial and temporal variations in copper and Pb were documented. The increased Cu and Pb levels were attributed to corrosion in the plumbing. Greater water quality modifications might be expected in areas of higher atmospheric deposition.

Pb has been measured in the fetal brain as early as the end of the first trimester. Cell-specific sensitivity to the toxic effects of this metal may be greater the younger the fetus. Pb toxicity to the nervous system is characterized by edema of the brain because of the altered permeability of capillary endothelial cells. Research suggests that immature endothelial cells forming the capillaries of the developing brain are less resistant to Pb effects, permitting fluid and cations, including Pb, to reach newly formed brain components.

ANOVA revealed that mothers of abused children report more family dysfunction in problem solving & roles than mothers of nonabused children. Significant differences between parents were found in the abused sample in problem solving, communication, & general functioning, but not in the nonabused sample. A greater number of differences between mothers & their children was evident in the nonabused group, & it is suggested that perceptual congruence between mothers & their abused children can provide a basis for therapy. 3 Tables, 17 References.

Based primarily on participant observation, the Skinheads' style of drinking is analyzed as one of the ways in which these young males express their English ethnicity, & as constitutive of the social processes that underpin the subculture. Also explored are reasons why Perth Skinheads do not conform to the pattern of drinking in rounds that is characteristic of some working-class drinking groups. 60 References.

H.R. 2039 proposes to enhance the employment and training services delivered under the JTPA by targeting the least job-ready clients for job training services while creating a new year-round job training component for at-risk youth. Some of the major provisions of the proposed amendments are the following: (1) establishing a separate program under Title II-A for adults (over age 22) and older workers (55 and older); (2) changing state set-aside amounts; (3) retaining existing performance standards for adults and youth; (4) requiring assessment of participants' skill levels; (5) requiring on-the-job training to be of sufficient duration for workers to learn skills, but not longer than 6 months; (6) encouraging service providers to provide child care to JTPA participants; (7) enhancing fiscal accountability requirements; (8) limiting administrative costs to not more than 20 percent of a service provider's contract; (9) requiring governors to administer the programs directly if their designated subordinates fail to do so correctly; (10) establishing greater authority for the Department of Labor's Division of Indian and Native American Programs; (11) authorizing funding for migrant and seasonal farmworker programs; (12) expanding age limits for the Job Corps up to age 25; and (13) expanding other programs such as nontraditional job training for women.

AN - 62997264; ED324614 AB - Adolescent pregnancy and parenthood have become increasingly important public policy issues in recent years for many reasons, including concerns about their prevalence, about the economic and social problems faced by young mothers and their children, and about the budgetary effects of adolescent parents' reliance on public assistance programs. Although teenage pregnancy rates leveled off during the 1980s, the fraction of births to unmarried women doubled, increasing the prevalence of problems associated with young motherhood. A young mother has three potential sources of private income: her parents and other relatives; her husband or the father of her children; and her own earnings. Young mothers are likely to be poor during the first few years after they have children, particularly those who are unmarried and living with only their children. Federal policies addressing the problems associated with adolescent motherhood might follow two approaches: policies to reduce the incidence of births to teenagers, thus avoiding the problems; and policies to increase the resources of young mothers. Because the problems faced by teenage mothers are complex and interrelated, a wide range of policies would probably be required to address them.

Because most intravenous (IV) drug users are not in treatment, the study also examines other approaches to HIV prevention. The remainder of the first chapter summarizes the main findings. Chapter 2 reviews the current situation regarding drug use and HIV infection in the United States. Chapter 3 provides background information about the drugs of abuse and various treatment modalities. Chapters 4 and 5, respectively, review the existing literature on the effectiveness of drug abuse treatment and examine the role of drug abuse treatment in preventing HIV infection. The appendices describe the method of study and the drugs of abuse other than narcotics and stimulants; summarize a cost-benefit analysis of drug abuse treatment; and review highlights from the most recent National Drug and Alcoholism Treatment Unit Survey.

AN - 62984579; ED326622 AB - Workers' skills are critical to U.S. industrial productivity and competitiveness and to maintaining living standards. Training is the key. Good training pays--for workers whose skills are upgraded, for companies seeking a competitive edge, and for the nation in overall productivity. However, workers in other countries are better trained than most U.S. workers. Too often, U.S. businesses seek to improve productivity by investing in hardware rather than in training people. Firms that do provide training have found it to be harder than anticipated. Traditional approaches are too narrow and many workers lack basic skills. The quality of training must improve. Greater federal involvement may be required to develop the highly skilled, flexible workers needed today. New institutional structures will also be needed to make affordable training available to small businesses. Policy options can be grouped in four broad issue areas: reducing barriers to firm-based training; retraining for individual career advancement; linking training and technology assistance to firms; and improving the quality and effectiveness of training. (An appendix examines training in the military.)

It is based on the universal soil loss equation but uses subfactors for crop cover and management. Readily available agronomic data and field expert opinion were used in formulating the method. Locally-derived data were used to validate the model which was then applied to agricultural systems in New South Wales, ranking the relative erosion hazard associated with crop and land management practices. The approach has a number of advantages: (1) it is computer-based and interactive, meaning that users need not undertake any calculations manually and can easily change the inputs to the program; (2) it provides a means of introducing the concepts of soil loss prediction directly into the planning process; and (3) the model not only allows quantification of soil loss but also provides a framework that is readily understood by farmers and other land managers.

A veteran high school teacher recommended that the entire school system be reconfigured out of its traditional factory mold, and a community college official described the programs the college is developing with employers to train or retrain their workers. A program to promote science and mathematics careers to disadvantaged/minority students was also described.

The document also contains a line-by-line analysis of the bill and the provisions that were amended during the hearing process and analysis of the effects that the legislation would have. Finally, the document contains minority views of the Bush Administration presented by the Secretary of Education and nine members of Congress, opposing the bill.

Congressional Report for Congress. AN - 62999315; ED332623 AB - This report examines some of the major issues that Congress is likely to confront in considering future use of student aid programs by proprietary school students. Chapter 1 presents an historical overview of proprietary school participation in Title IV student aid programs and Chapter 2 explores the current participation of proprietary school students in Title IV programs, looking at program and student participation data. Chapter 3 discusses the two major concerns relating to proprietary school participation in the Title IV programs: abusive practices and Guaranteed Student Loan defaults. Chapter 4 focuses on six broad issues: the access of vocational students to postsecondary education; the cost of a proprietary school education to the student and to the taxpayer; the use of Title IV as the major source of federal aid for job training; the protection of the student consumer; the integrity of student financial aid programs; and the use of student aid as a funding mechanism. The final chapter offers some concluding observations on the basic choices concerning proprietary school issues and student aid programs that are available to Congress. Two appendices provide information on the history of proprietary schools' involvement in Title IV, and the types of available aid under Title IV and eligibility requirements for the participation of schools and students.

The main purpose of the legislation is to establish a formal policy that federal records, books, and publications of enduring value be produced on acid free permanent papers. The report presents a discussion of the problem and alternative solutions, including the use of acid free papers, microfilming deteriorating documents, and bulk deacidification of books. The report also provides a section-by-section analysis of the amended legislation, including five urgent congressional recommendations: (1) federal agencies should require the use of acid free permanent papers for publications of enduring value produced by the Government Printing Office or by federal grant or contract; (2) federal agencies should require the use of archival quality acid free papers for permanently valuable records; (3) American publishers and state and local governments should use acid free papers for publications of enduring value; (4) both private and governmental publishers should prominently note the use of acid free paper, and federal officials should make known the national policy on acid free papers to foreign governments and international agencies.

Natural fibers include asbestos, talc, vermiculite, wollastonite, sepiolite, erionite and attapulgite. Of these, the health effects for asbestos are well known; diseases such as lung cancer and asbestosis, mesotheliomas, and other cancers. Studies of the other natural silicates indicate increased risk of lung disease and lung cancer among those exposed. For man-made fibers, mesothelioma risk does not seem to be increased, but risk of lung cancer is increased, particularly for those working in the early phases of production. Future research should concentrate on standardizing pleural thickening assessments and relate this information to the type of fiber exposure. Mesothelioma rates should be tracked nationally. Silicate exposure, particularly for products used as asbestos substitutes, tremolite, small diameter glass fibers, and ceramic fibers should be monitored. Sampling of ambient air for fibers is needed before general population risk assessments are made.

For asbestos and glass, cytotoxicity and mutagenicity bioassays have shown that long, thin fibers are more active than short fibers. Evaluation of cytotoxicity should be based on the number of fibers per dish rather than on the mass of fibers per dish, since the first method agrees with results from in vivo studies. The release of oxygen-active species, agents responsible for DNA breakage, lipid peroxidation abnormalities, and changes in cell membrane fluidity occur when long fibers are incompletely phagocytosed. This can be reversed by the addition of an antioxidant along with the asbestos fibers. Long fibers also induce cell proliferation at much lower concentrations than short fibers. Future areas of research should include well defined control fibers and dusts and a choice of the most sensitive cell lines.

Pooled study information revealed several patterns. Brain cancer was associated with paternal exposure to hydrocarbons, petrochemicals, and, especially, paint. Leukemia rates were also higher among offspring with paternal exposure to paint. Information on maternal exposure is limited, but links between chemical exposure and leukemia and brain cancer rates were noted. The rarity of childhood cancer limits the size of the population studied. Other difficulties noted were the inexactitude of deriving parental exposure from occupation listed on birth certificates rather than from actual exposure information.

Genotoxic effects were studied using E. coli. Adducts of 1,N super(2)-cyclic deoxyguanosine, 1,N super(2)-cyclic deoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate, and 1, N super(2)-cyclic guanine and the unsaturated carbonyls were formed and incubated with the Salmonella or E.coli. Salmonella typhimurium strain TA100 is mutated by compounds, which form saturated cyclic compounds, while the TA1535 strain is less affected. The bromo- and chloro-substituted compounds are highly mutagenic. Some of these compounds are significantly genotoxic. Unsaturated conjugates are formed by alpha , beta -unsaturated carbonyl compounds which have a leaving group at the third carbon. Mutagenicity is found in the His D3052 frameshift strain, but not in TA1538, TA98, TA1535 or TA100. Genotoxicity was noted for these compounds. Methyl- and ethylvinyl ketones form epoxides and are somewhat mutagenic, with mutagenicity decreased by addition of SKF 25 and increased by the addition of trichloropropene oxidase. Cinnamaldehydes that are 2-chloro- or 2-bromo-substituted are genotoxic and mutagenic toward TA100, TA98, and TA1538, but not TA1535. Nitro-substituted cinnamaldehydes are mutagenic in TA100 with the presence of nitroreductase.

For asbestosis, the length of the fiber must be super(>)2 mu micrometers. For mesothelioma, the diameter must be super()5 mu m. For lung cancer, the length must exceed 10 mu m. The risk of disease from fiberglass is lower. Fiberglass has a large diameter, which prevents deep penetration into the lungs, coupled with the mechanical breakdown and dissolution of smaller fibers reaching the lungs. Most studies on laboratory animals have shown toxicity after exposure by routes other than inhalation, such as ip injection or intratracheal installation of fiber suspensions into the lungs. Fibers not deeply penetrating are cleared from the lungs by movement to the larynx for passage to the digestive system. Fibers with deeper penetration into the nonciliated portions of the lung, are cleared by translocation along the surface of the epithelium or by disintegration, which includes dissolution and mechanical breakdown. Small-diameter fibers causing mesothelioma dissolve fastest. The small diameters and long retention times of slag and rockwool account for the higher risk of lung diseases of those exposed.

Asbestosis is prevalent in those with long term exposure, though mesothelioma can occur with much shorter exposure times. The recovery of fibers from lung tissue, while not standardized, gives important information regarding exposure. The fiber burden of asbestosis patients is much higher than that of mesothelioma patients. Lung cancer risk among asbestosis patients is increased, but the implications of additional cigarette smoking in this population are not clear. Benign pleural plaque patients have tissue fiber burdens much lower than asbestosis patients and somewhat lower than mesothelioma patients. Pleural fibrosis patients have tissue burdens slightly higher than those with pleural plaques. The types of fibers that migrate to the parietal pleura and the mechanism of migration is not yet well defined. The role of nonasbestos fibers in lung cancer needs more study.

Studies conducted before 1961 do not use this standard definition and are of limited value. Variations in analysis and sample collection also limit the value of the many data available for asbestos fibers. It is generally agreed that occupational exposure poses more of a risk than environmental exposure. The only other natural mineral fibers studied are eriolite and zeolite, which have no occupational uses and, therefore, are environmental. For man-made vitreous fibers, data collection has been more uniform for occupational exposure; scant for environmental exposure. In fact, few data exist for man-made nonvitreous fibers such as silicon nitride, silicon carbide, and carbon fibers, although in vitro testing shows high levels of cytotoxicity for the silicon fibers.

Previous studies have shown that carcinomas are more likely to develop in asbestos-exposed animals, resulting in a high degree of lung fibrosis. Few lung tumors are seen in animals exposed to other fibers not causing fibrosis. Several years of inhalation experiments on rats were reviewed, which indicated that rats with lung tumors had twice as much fibrosis as rats of the same age with no tumors. Of the cases in which tumors developed in rats with low amounts of fibrosis, the tumors could be divided into two groups: half occupied one lung lobe but had not spread to areas with little fibrosis, and half were early tumors, which had probably arisen from areas of adenomatosis or fibrosis. Since most of the rats in the studies were of advanced age, a study of rats in the age of early tumor development could elucidate the origin of the pulmonary tumors.

Analogues of 1,2-dioxetanes, which undergo thermal decomposition to form triplet excited carbonyl compounds, were studied for photogenotoxicity. Incubation with cell-free DNA from the bacteriophage PM2 indicated that the alkyl and hydroxyalkyl derivatives modified to pyrimidine dimers, bases that were sensitive to endonuclease. Few DNA strand breaks were noted for this incubation, but more occurred with Syrian hamster embryo fibroblasts and HL-60 cells incubated with dioxetane analogues. Photobinding of the psoralen alpha -pyrone ring to calf thymus DNA was demonstrated upon incubation with the psoralen analogue of dioxetane or upon incubation with psoralen and 3,4,4-trimethyl-1,2-dioxetane.

Hearing before the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs. United States Senate, One Hundred First Congress, Second Session. AN - 62991860; ED333811 AB - This hearing before the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, addresses the implications of the anticipated failure of the Higher Education Assistance Foundation (HEAF), the largest guarantor of student loans. HEAF's difficulties have affected Sallie Mae (Student Loan Marketing Association), and have raised general questions about the design of Federal Government guarantee programs which guarantee risks stemming from the behavior of a financial institution over which it has little or no control. Included in this document are remarks and prepared statements of Senators Riegle, Bryan, Kassebaum, Dixon, Garn, Pressler and Pell. Witnesses included T. Sanders, E. Stringer, and L. Oxendine of the U.S. Department of Education; F. Fraizier, J. J. Eglin, and C. C. Chrissman of the Human Resources Division of the U.S. General Accounting Office; and L. A.

The testimony was given at a July 1990 House of Representatives oversight hearing on the Montgomery GI Bill. During the hearing, congressional representatives complained that too many veterans and reserves have to wait months to establish their educational benefits and to get their checks to pay for their schooling. The representatives asked the military officers for suggestions for remedying the situation, and suggestions were offered for improving the system. In addition, suggestions were made for increasing veterans' and reservists' benefits as an enticement for enlistment and because of rapidly rising educational costs.

CRS Report for Congress. AN - 62992036; ED333571 AB - In almost all states, there is substantial local variation in per pupil expenditures for public elementary and secondary education. This results from the mix of state, local, and federal revenues received by most local educational agencies (LEAs), local variations in student needs, cost of providing services, and ability and willingness to raise local revenues. National interest in such variations is increasing, due to several state supreme court decisions regarding the constitutionality of state school financing systems. Also, the ability of LEAs to pay for mandated reforms has been questioned. A bill (H.R. 3850) has been introduced in the 101st Congress providing federal support for greater equalization of state school finance programs. Problems arise concerning the definition of "equal spending per pupil." State school finance programs frequently distribute aid in proportion to each LEA's number of "high cost" pupils, rather than in proportion to total enrollment. Another important factor is differences in taxable resources per pupil--the ability to pay for education. A major barrier to analyzing expenditure variations is lack of a reliable national data source. The Census Bureau's 1986-87 survey of school finances is the most current source, but the quality of data for individual LEAs is questionable. In this report, two measures of expenditure disparity are calculated for each state: the range of expenditures between the 10 highest and 10 lowest spending LEAs in the state; and the coefficient of variation from the mean. The analysis proved inconclusive regarding local causality factors influencing per pupil expenditure variations.

Report (To Accompany S. 2167). 101st Congress, 2nd Session, Senate. AN - 62992930; ED325300 AB - This Senate report provides background material to accompany Senate Bill 2167, which reauthorizes tribally controlled community colleges, reauthorizes the tribal college endowment program, and authorizes the establishment of demonstration centers for gifted and talented children in Guam, American Samoa, and Alaska. The 22 tribally controlled community colleges are located in 10 midwestern and western states, and all but 2 are located on Indian reservations. Present enrollment totals about 18,000, of which about 10% is non-Indian and not counted for purposes of federal funding. Senate Bill 2167 provides $3.2 million for technical assistance, $30 million for operational grants, and funds necessary for construction. On a matching basis, 20 tribal colleges received endowment grants in fiscal year 1989 averaging $12,000. The bill reauthorizes the endowment program at $5 million for 1990 and 1991 and at $10 million for 1992, and allows real and personal property donated to the endowment to qualify for matching funds. In the Pacific Islands, educational resources are extremely limited. New demonstration centers authorized by the bill will provide the same opportunities for gifted and talented programs that are available to children nationwide. Important functions of the centers will be to develop criteria for identifying gifted and talented Samoan, Guamanian, and Alaska Native children; to develop culturally relevant programs; and to provide cross-cultural training for teachers. A scholarship program will cover higher education tuition and travel costs for Samoan and Guamanian students.

AN - 62989461; ED334508 AB - This report analyzes the problem families and others face in locating and arranging appropriate services for people with dementia and discusses federal policy options for the development of a system to resolve the problem. Chapter 1 provides an overview of the problem and discusses the factors that determine what kind of system is needed to link people with dementia to services. Chapter 2 focuses on the informational aspects of the process by which people with dementia and their caregivers are linked to services. Chapter 3 discusses the need for outreach and case management for those who need assistance that goes beyond public education and information and referral. Chapter 4 discusses certain concepts and distinctions that are important in thinking about how to determine people's decisionmaking capacity and how to make decisions on behalf of people who are not capable of making decisions themselves. Chapter 5 focuses on the potential role a federally mandated linking system might play with respect to the quality and appropriateness of services to which it connects people with dementia. Chapters 6 through 8 describe the Veterans Affairs health care and health-related services and various state linking programs and community service systems, and analyze 11 categories of agencies that Congress could designate as a basis of a national linking system for people with dementia.

Testimony and prepared statements are then presented from the following witnesses: Floyd Abrams, A. G. W. Biddle, Taylor Branch, James M. Burger, Pierre N. Leval, Jonathan W. Lubell, J. Anthony Lukas, Roger J. Miner, James L. Oakes, William F. Patry, Barbara Ringer, and Senator Paul Simon, who introduced letters and statements on behalf of the Magazine Publishers of America; the American Association of Law Libraries; the American Library Association and the Association of Research Libraries; the Electronic Industries Association; and nine educational testing organizations, namely: the American College Testing Program, College Entrance Examination Board, Educational Testing Service, Graduate Management Admission Council, Graduate Record Examinations Board, Law School Admission Council, National Council of Architectural Registration Boards, National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying, and Test of English as a Foreign Language Policy Council. Letters to Robert Kastenmeier, Dennis DeConcini, and Paul Simon are also appended together with a statement from the National Center for Fair and Open Testing.

AN - 62881259; ED336068 AB - Prepared in response to a request from the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, this report assesses how scientific and technical information (STI) developed by or for the Federal Government can contribute to a more competitive United States and what actions are needed to realize this potential. It is argued that STI is important because of its potential significant impact on global issues, as well as its critical role in the innovation process in education, basic research, applied research and development, product development and manufacturing, and the application of science and technology to meet the needs of the commercial, not-for-profit, and governmental markets. Topics of discussion include: (1) Federal Scientific and Technical Information and the U.S. Competitive Edge, which includes science and technology policy, science education, and international competitiveness; (2) Reaching Consensus on Principles of Federal Scientific and Technical Information Dissemination; (3) Reaching Consensus on the Open Flow and Government-wide Dissemination of federal STI, which focuses on the role of government wide dissemination and archival agencies in STI; and (4) Framework for a Presidential Initiative on Scientific and Technical Information, which highlights the role of the Executive Office of the President, including the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), as well as other Federal Government agencies. A review of technological opportunities for managing and disseminating federal STI and a list of acronyms are appended, and an index by major topics is provided.

Regression models of concern were developed for each of seven areas of concern that were identified: personal exposure, spouse exposure, offspring exposure, pollution, personal health consequences, family health consequences, and economic consequences with regard to toxic substances in the environment. The strongest predictive variable was the number of sources of information, where a greater number was associated with higher levels of concern. Other predictive variables were: education, where fewer years was associated with higher levels of concern; scientific knowledge, where greater knowledge was associated with higher levels of concern; the conviction that government should monitor industry; and distance from hazardous waste sites. The model was unaffected by the responses of women, including those with children who were ill, which was not found in other studies.

Six classes of substructures or types of reactions known to be electrophilic are: acylation reactions, reactions with isocyanates, reactions with carbonyl compounds, alkylation and arylation of sulfhydryl groups, reactions with other metallic compounds, and miscellaneous reactions with sulfhydryl groups. Equations for predicting the quantitative structure-activity relationship should include electrophilic descriptors as well as the octanol water partition coefficient. The effects of bioactivation are not addressed, even though reactive compounds are produced, because of the small amount of information available in studies of fish.

For most organic chemicals, the octanol/water partition coefficient is used to determine the baseline relationship of structure and toxicity, using aquatic organisms such as fathead minnows as test animals. These substances are nonpolar Type I narcotic agents. However, many polar narcotics are more toxic than would be expected by this method. Joint toxicity testing, combined with isobole diagrams, reveals that chemicals demonstrating strict additivity with phenol are more toxic than would be predicted by the Type I model. These chemicals include some amides, amines, heterocyclic nitrogen compounds, and phenols. It is suggested that the Type I narcosis is caused by hydrophobic bonding of the substance to the cell membrane or enzymes, while Type II narcosis is caused by strong hydrogen bonding. Some strongly basic or acidic compounds are more toxic than either model would predict, and their toxicity mechanisms are not those of narcosis. Rules for deciding which quantitative structure-activity relationship to use for various chemicals are given.

Some areas of the country are polluted with cadmium from prior emissions of nonferrous metal production. The kidney is the first organ affected by exposure, and proteinuria is one of the first symptoms. The design of a large-scale morbidity study to determine the health effects of cadmium exposure is described. The objectives were: to discover the relationship of cadmium exposure to cadmium within the human body; to discover whether a relationship exists between cadmium exposure and renal variations or blood pressure abnormalities; and to determine the amount of cadmium in the body at which adverse health effects are likely. Subjects were selected from four areas of Belgium: two heavily polluted areas and two lightly polluted areas. Blood and urine specimens were taken from the subjects, and blood pressure readings were monitored. The initial phase of the ongoing study was spread over four years, from 1985 to 1989. This study should identify the preclinical phase of cadmium toxicity in the test population and establish the presence or absence of a cause-and-effect connection.

While identity, use, health, and environmental information must be supplied for these chemicals, test data are not required and, in most cases, not supplied. The EPA evaluates chemicals for possible hazards, using a three-part method, the structure-activity relationship (SAR). First, any available toxicity data on the substance are evaluated. Next, data on the toxicity of analogous substances, or probable metabolites, are examined by EPA assessors. Finally, quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) are constructed. These are mathematical expressions, which relate the data on the analogous chemicals to a biological effect. Molecular weight, number of carbon atoms, number of ethoxylate units, and cationic charge/molecular weight units can be used to determing QSARs. Alternatively, the chemicals can be divided into three classes on the basis of toxic activity: neutral organics, chemicals suspected of having excess toxicity, and chemicals that cause respiratory membrane damage. At present, many classes of chemicals do not have QSARs. Six case studies are presented that detail the procedures followed to arrive at health hazard assessments for new chemicals. The chemicals examinined include an azo dye, an azoheterozole, an aliphatic ketone, a substituted melamine, a simple ester, and a linear alkyl toluene sulfonate.

In bread baking, it is converted to potassium bromide and causes no adverse effects. Carcinogenicity of oral potassium bromate is known in rats, and the compound both initiates and promotes tumor formation in the kidney. Nephrotoxicity occurs in other lab animals and in man, as well as peritoneal mesotheliomas, and thyroid tumors. Microbial assay of the potassium bromate shows little mutagenicity, but chromosomal anomalies occur in tests with lab animals. The compound inhibits lipid peroxidation and produces 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine in the rat kidney. Active oxygen radicals produced are the probable causes of the toxic and carcinogenic effects. Regulatory status, risk assessment information, and future prospects for the compound are discussed.

These provisions would: (1) provide employment and training information and services to individuals serving on active duty who are within 180 days of their discharge; (2) expand the duties of the Disabled Veterans Outreach program specialists to include provision of services to persons on active duty who are within 180 days of discharge; (3) expand the duties of the Local Veterans' Employment Representatives to serve the same group; (4) extend the definition of a veteran of the Vietnam era for eligibility purposes; (5) replace a Labor Department committee with another advisory committee related to training and employment; and (6) require the advisory committee to submit a report on employment and training needs of veterans and recommendations for improvement. The report then provides background and discussion of the bill, cost estimates, the viewpoint of the Veterans' Administration, and a section-by-section analysis of the bill.

AN - 62897085; ED342390 AB - American copyright law provides a means of stimulating intellectual development and protecting the ownership interests of the authors of copyrighted works. Over the years, U.S. copyright law has evolved in order to respond to societal and technological changes. Under the copyright statute certain uses of a copyrighted work are permitted under the doctrine of fair use. The criteria for the application of this doctrine are flexible and are applied on a case by case basis. New technologies such as compact disks, optical disks, computer storage devices, and digital audio technology (DAT) recording, provide challenges for U.S. copyright law. For example, DAT is capable of producing copies of copyrighted works in the privacy of the DAT owner's home. Thus, the question is whether DAT use is considered fair use or as copyright infringement. Although DAT equipment is not generally available to the public, its use and copyright law have been addressed in the 101st Congress as they relate to home recording. The most significant of the issues posed in the application of existing copyright law to DAT recording is that such recording may not fall within the fair use exception of the law, and, therefore, issues of infringement may arise with the sale and use of DAT. References are provided throughout the report.

AN - 62970380; ED327652 AB - This document records the oral and written testimony of several small business owners and a Nevada Department of Education official at a Congressional hearing about education and today's work force. The business owners' testimony indicated the difficulty they have finding workers who can read, write, and think, and who are willing to be trained. It was also suggested that most of their workers lack a work ethic and that schools should spend more time educating students to find and keep a job and to get along in the real world. The educator's testimony noted the difficulties schools face in having a teacher-student ratio that is small enough to allow supervised work programs, as well as the problems teachers face with students who come from poorly functioning homes and uncaring parents. Comments from Congressional representatives noted that the federal government wants to help educate and train workers and indicated that the Carl D. Perkins Vocational Education Act contains provisions that could help, but schools and businesses do not always know how they can use the programs provided. Examples of Nevada programs helping to educate students and workers for jobs were presented. Appendixes contain various opening and prepared statements and other materials submitted for the record.

AN - 21344531; 7691294 AB - Researchers from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) conducted an extent-of-exposure study of the 1,3-butadiene monomer, polymer, and end-user industries to determine the size of the exposed workforce, evaluate control technologies and personal protective equipment programs, and assess occupational exposure to 1,3-butadiene. A new analytical method was developed for 1,3-butadiene that increased the sensitivity and selectivity of the previous NIOSH method. The new method is sensitive to 0.2 microgram per 1,3-butadiene sample. Walk-through surveys were conducted in 11 monomer, 17 polymer, and 2 end-user plants. In-depth industrial hygiene surveys were conducted at 4 monomer, 5 polymer, and 2 end-user plants. Airborne exposure concentrations of 1,3-butadiene were determined using personal sampling for each job category. A total of 692 full shift and short-term personnel and 259 area air samples were examined for the presence of 1,3-butadiene. Sample results indicated that all worker exposures were well below the current OSHA PEL of 1000 ppm. Exposures ranged from less than 0.006 ppm to 374 ppm. The average exposure for all samples was less than 2 ppm. The present American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) threshold limit value for 1,3-butadiene is 10 ppm. To reduce the potential for occupational exposure, it is recommended that quality control sampling be conducted using a closed loop system. Also all process pumps should be retrofitted with dual mechanical seals, magnetic gauges should be used in loading and unloading rail cars, and engineering controls should be designed for safely voiding quality control cylinders.

Of the participating subjects, 83 had been exposed to methyl isocyanate gas after the December 2, 1984, accident at the Union Carbide plant. The frequency of chromosomal aberrations was generally higher in individuals from the exposed populations, with females showing a higher incidence. Frequencies of SCEs and depression in mitotic and replicative indices could not be related to exposure or sex. The persistence of chromosomal abnormalities in the form of replicating minutes and exchange configurations, even 1114 d after exposure to the gas, may indicate a residual effect on T-cell precursors.

Fish health was evaluated using certain integumental and skeletal lesions and anomalies as markers to signify compromised health status. Fish health appeared to be poorer in coastal waters that have been anthropogenically degraded; high levels of chemical contaminants pollute several coastal areas in the northeastern US. A high prevalence of hepatocarcinoma was detected in liver tissues of winter flounder from Boston Harbor, MA, one of the more chemically tainted sites.

Basic research has elucidated some of the molecular events that underlie this lack of threshold at the neuronal level. Clinical studies indicate that early exposure to Pb produces functionally irreversible damage to the CNS. New data on release of bone stores of Pb during physiological conditions of demineralization indicate that mobilization of bone Pb adds to in utero exposure of the fetus. Postmenopausal demineralization of bone in women can increase blood Pb levels by 25%. This raises concerns about the potential effects of Pb in an aging population and the difficulties of comprehensive exposure assessment.

The union of these two disciplines has resulted in a new approach to studying tumor formation, directing attention to dysfunctions in inward and outward streams of signals at cell membranes and to synergic actions of chemical pollutants and environmental electromagnetic fields. Progress in this joint field of research is surveyed. Topics covered include: synergic actions of phorbol esters and electromagnetic fields on ornithine decarboxylase activity and cell transformation frequencies; disruption of intercellular communication by phorbol esters and microwaves in tumor promotion; and enzymatic markers of radiofrequency field interactons with chemical cancer promoters at cell membranes.

AN - 14264543; 10444512 AB - The mitigation of groundwater contamination is of great importance, as this problem is severe in the US and reliance on this water resource is expected to increase. Types of chemical and biological contaminants frequently polluting groundwater systems in the US and elsewhere are identified. Successful mitigation requires determining which of these contaminants are the most serious threats to human health, developing technology to transform hazardous waste into nonhazardous material, and determining the effects of these materials on soils and aquatic organisms. Groundwater pollutants must be immobilized or destroyed so that they will not enter aquifers, or if they enter groundwater, they must be confined and destroyed.

Initial Contact with the Alveolar Macrophage Membrane AN - 14263726; 10444130 AB - The biologic effects of adsorbate, adsorbent, and adsorbate-adsorbent complexes were studied in alveolar macrophages treated with carbon blacks and adsorbates. Phagocytosis was suppressed in a dose-related manner with increasing concentrations of both C blacks and adsorbates. Diesel particulate matter samples collected from an engine operated on a pure hydrocarbon fuel with various oxidizers, air, and an oxidizer free of nitrogen were tested. Treatment of the macrophages with the fuel-air products had a negligible effect on phagocytosis, while the N-free sample suppressed phagocytosis in a dose-dependent manner.

Analyses of the relevant data do not lead to a conclusive description of the interaction between radon daughters and cigarette smoking for the induction of lung cancer. Evidence implies that indoor radon daughter exposure in homes represents a potential life-threatening public health hazard, particularly in males and in cigarette smokers. Full acceptance for protection against what could prove to be a significant public health hazard in the 21st century will involve policy decisions, made not by scientists but by the government and legal sectors.

The negative values of aquatic animals as disease vectors are far outweighed by their positive values as nutritional sources and as sustainers of a relatively stable equilibrium in the global ecosystem. Increased and improved monitoring of aquatic habitats will help determine the extent to which aquatic organisms cycle toxic and carcinogenic chemicals back to human consumers. Methods are needed to assess the effects of these pollutants on reproductive success in aquatic and in human communities. Technological advances reflective of a philosophy advocating evaluation of consequences in advance rather than in retrospect are required.

In one test, animals were exposed to 6.25, 62.5, or 625 ppm 1,3-butadiene for 6 hr/d on 10 exposure days; the same concentrations were used on weekdays for 13 weeks in a second study. Chloroprene and isoprene treatments entailed 6 hr/d exposures on 12 exposure days. In the first trial, butadiene induced significant increases in sister chromatid exchange (SCE) at 6.25 ppm, micronuclei at 62.5 ppm, and chromosomal aberrations at 625 ppm. In the second study, the frequency of micronucleated normochromatic erythrocytes in peripheral blood was markedly elevated in all exposure groups. Isoprene induced both SCE and micronuclei, while chloroprene gave negative results for all cytogenetic end-points assessed in bone marrow cells.

No effects on hematology, blood chemistry, urine analysis, or neuromuscular function could definitely be associated with treatment. The exposure regimen induced changes in clinical condition, suppressed body weight gain, reduced survival, and increased weights of certain organs. Increases were also noted in both common and uncommon tumor types. Evidence suggests that 1,3-butadiene is an oncogen to the rat under the test exposure conditions. The mechanism is more likely to be an indirect effect through the endocrine system rather than a direct effect through production of reactive metabolites.

Incremental cancer risk estimates based on extrapolation from laboratory animal data are reported. Characterization of emission sources, estimates of ambient air concentrations, and population exposure are also covered. The estimate of excess cancer cases resulting from point source exposure to the compound has decreased to about 40% of the estimate published in 1985, from 6.4 chances in 10 to 2.5 in 10 for a lifetime exposure to 1 ppm. The current estimate is no more than eight additional cancer incidences in the general population.

Sister chromatid exchange (SCE) and micronucleus induction results indicated 1,3-butadiene was genotoxic in the bone marrow of the mouse but not the rat. The compound did not induce unscheduled DNA synthesis in either rat or mouse hepatocytes following in vivo exposure. Similarly, unscheduled DNA synthesis in hepatocytes in vitro was not induced by the butadiene metabolites. 1,3-Butadiene was negative in in vitro SCE studies in human whole blood lymphocyte cultures treated in the presence of rat, mouse, or human liver S9 metabolic activation. In general, 1,3-butadiene is genotoxic in vivo but is a weak in vitro genotoxin.

The agency has also performed its own risk assessment using female mouse and rat data and the one-hit and multistage models. While these assessments differ in the risks predicted at low doses, they all support OSHA's preliminary determination that there is significant risk of cancer from occupational exposure to 1,3-butadiene at the current OSHA permissible exposure limit of 1000 ppm.

Some studies suggest that the lymphopoietic system is a target, but there are inconsistencies among studies in the types of tumors associated with 1,3-butadiene exposure, and there is no evidence of a relationship between length of exposure and cancer risk. Due to the general uncertainty of the relevance of animal data to humans, the Natl Toxicology Program's mouse study may not be appropriate for assessing possible human risks.

The person-years at risk of death have increased from 34,187 to 43,341 at one plant, and from 19,742 to 26,314 at another. Observed deaths have increased in both plants, with increases in cancers of the trachea, bronchus, and lung, and in lymphosarcomas, reticulosarcomas, and cancers of the overall lymphatic and hematopoietic system. The continued evaluation of workers in this industry seems warranted, since there are continuing reports of additional cancers occurring to those exposed in the styrene-1,3-butadiene production environment.

The all-cause mortality of these workers was low compared with that of the general population, but some specific sites of cancers had standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) that exceeded 1.0. SMRs for cancers of the digestive tract were higher than expected, especially esophageal cancer in whites and stomach cancer in blacks. The SMR for arteriosclerotic heart disease in black workers was markedly higher than would be expected based on general population rates. Production workers showed increased SMRs for hematologic neoplasms and maintenance workers for digestive cancers.

The new awareness prompted the lowering of acceptable occupational exposures, as measured by blood Pb, from 80 to 40-60 mu g/deciliter range, and the establishment of maximum recommended exposures in children to a blood Pb level of 25 mu g/deciliter. Research implicates Pb as a contributing etiologic factor in some common diseases such as subtle cognitive and neurological deficits, hypertension, congenital malformations, and immunotoxicity. Other potential subtle health effects include the influence of small amounts of Pb in cell proliferation and Pb as a cofactor in carcinogenesis.

F344 rats and B6C3F sub(1) mice were exposed to concentrations in the 0-7000 ppm range during a two-week inhalation study. No chemically related changes in survival, body weight gain, clinical signs, hematological or clinical chemistry parameters, or gross or microscopic lesions were evident for rats. Exposure of mice did not produce mortalities and only caused a decrease in body weight gain for male mice exposed to 7000 ppm. However, hematologic changes and microscopic lesions were observed in isoprene-exposed mice.

Such research has proven useful in defining the focus on human health effects to the lymphopoietic cancers. The next step will involve a lymphopoietic cancer case control approach to enable a more precise assessment of whether there is a relationship between 1,3-butadiene exposure and lymphopoietic cancer. Periodic mortality updates of the exposed worker cohorts will be important to track trends in lymphopoietic cancer rates and to ensure that other cancers with long latency do not begin to show elevated rates.

However, further studies are warranted to improve mechanistic understanding such as the examination of alternate metabolic pathways and the assessment of the relevance of various tumor sites. Data pertaining to repeated and pulse exposures of rodents and primates are needed. Recommendations also address the need to conduct studies pursuing mechanisms of murine leukemogenesis, hemoglobin carcinogenicity, and human cell culture studies.

Responding to national and global environmental problems over the long run will require public understanding of those problems. An expanded program in environmental education will provide a foundation for public understanding of environmental issues and help assure active and informed discussion of the best ways to address environmental problems. The National Environmental Education Act (S.1076) was introduced in May 1989 and is intended to renew and reestablish the federal role in environmental education. It is designed to complement the range of existing environmental education programs being implemented by both government agencies and nonprofit organizations. This report briefly describes the Act and provides a section-by-section analysis. In addition, hearings, roll call votes, regulatory impact, and estimated cost to the Federal Government are discussed. The full text of Senate Bill 1706 as reported is included in this document.

Hearing before the Committee on Governmental Affairs. United States Senate, One Hundred First Congress, Second Session. AN - 62955951; ED326514 AB - The focus of this hearing was two Government Accounting Office (GAO) evaluative reports on the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) programs to educate school-aged youth about the dangers of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and ways to avoid human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. The GAO's first report is based on its national survey of school districts and their policies on reaching young people who stay in school and on training teachers in AIDS instruction. The GAO found that more Federal leadership is needed to improve the HIV curriculum and to train teachers about students' knowledge, behavior, and beliefs. The second report concerns the slow progress made by Federal, State, and local governments in reaching the small but critical percentage of youth who are not in school. This group includes the runaways, the homeless, the incarcerated, the migrants, and street youth who may be involved in a variety of high-risk behaviors. Witnesses before the committee included educators and government officials.

AFL-CIO Reviews the Issues. Report No. 41. AN - 62965021; ED323304 AB - Economic changes in the United States over the past decade and growing concerns about the state of education have led many people to look for successful models for workplace education. As a result, there is a new and deeper interest in apprenticeship training. The form and practice of apprenticeship has changed little over time. Today, as always, young people who seek mastery of a particular trade or skill are trained by experienced practitioners over a period of years, typically 3-5 years before "journeyman" status is reached. Apprenticeship training combines hands-on training, classroom work, and practical work experience, and it is governed by formal standards. The elements of the training are always changing to meet changing conditions. Today the AFL-CIO trains 80 to 90 percent of all registered apprentics in the United States. The training is provided through jointly administered, local union-management apprenticeship committees which help union workers acquire high-level, high-pay skills, and these in turn help to ensure employers a steady stream of highly qualified employees. Centralized funding ensures that training standards are met nationally, while providing training materials at lower cost than if they were produced locally. Instructor training is provided through colleges or universities to journeyworkers who train apprentices. Since the early 1970s, minority groups have increasingly entered union apprenticeship programs; today 22 percent of registered apprentices are minorities and 7 percent are women. Union-sponsored and union-related apprenticeship training for entry workers and skill upgrading for experienced workers will help the nation meet the looming skill shortage of the 1990s.

AN - 62825870; ED349435 AB - This document describes the AFL-CIO's Upgrading and Career Ladder Program (UCLP), which creates a system of structured, work-based learning integrating on-the-job training with related theoretical instruction. The UCLP has the following objectives: to meet workers' skill upgrading and occupational mobility needs; to encourage unions and employers to sustain learning programs through collective bargaining provisions; to operate workplace demonstration programs; and to facilitate union/worker participation. The first two sections of this document present an overview of the apprenticeship system and recount the Apprenticeship 2000 initiative history, including labor organizations' comments. Because ongoing training systems upgrade workers' basic skills, section III provides a perspective on the debate over workplace literacy. A review of labor market information is included in section IV. The narrative part of the report concludes with a section on upgrading experience in government programs, the relationship of upgrading to career development, and the importance of union and worker participation in workplace learning systems. The extensive selected bibliography provides 235 references on the following subjects: apprentice system, apprentice 2000 initiative, learning basic skills--a perspective, labor market information, and union and worker participation--the key to career development.

(H.R. 4087 aims to make employment counseling available to veterans and to extend the eligibility for Vietnam-era veterans.) Witnesses included the Assistant Secretary of Labor for Veterans' Employment and Training, officials of various veterans' associations and organizations (such as the American Legion and Vietnam Veterans of America), and state officials. The Assistant Secretary of Labor testified that the bill would be redundant and too costly. He also suggested changes in existing programs to permit the Department of Labor to conduct further studies of funding and permanency of programs. A representative from New York described the veterans' programs being conducted in that state and asked for implementation of H.R. 4087 in order to continue those programs. Most of the veterans' representatives supported the proposed legislation, with modifications.
