The Simultaneous Labeling of Cells in Different Segments of the Mitotic Cycle with Tritiated Thymidine and Colchicine and the Effect of Colchicine on Thymidine Uptake

Description: Treatment of Pisum root meristems with nutrient solutions containing tritiated thymidine (H3-T) and colchicine simultaneously labeled cells in two different segments of the mitotic cycle. Tracings of the serial progression of these differently labeled cells through mitosis resembled sine-cosine curves. When the labeled cells are in interphase the sign of the curves is negative, when they are in mitosis the sign is positive. The concept of the mitotic cycle in terms of trigonometric functions wa… more

The Effect of Mitotic Cycle Duration on Chromosome Breakage in Meristematic Cells of Pisum Sativum

Description: One of the more apparent differences between acute and chronic irradiation is that exposure in the former is generally confined to a small fraction of a single mitotic cycle while in the latter; exposure of mitotically active tissue usually involves at least several cycles. Because of this difference, the number of cells in each stage of interphase would be of primary importance in acute radiation experiments since radiosensitivity is not the same in the G1, S and G2 periods. The duration of th… more

A Proposed Mechanism and Method of Correlation for Convective Boiling Heat Transfer with Liquid Metals

Description: An additive, interacting mechanism of micro and macro-convective heat transfer is proposed to represent boiling heat transfer with net vapor generation to saturated liquid metals in convective flow. Based on this mechanism, a method for calculating boiling coefficients is developed. The correlating is shown to be in fair agreement with early experimental results for convective boiling of potassium and sodium.

Effects of Chronic Excess Salt Ingestion: Possible Implications of the Accelerated Induction of Experimental Hypertension by 2,4-Dinitrophenol

Description: Recently, we reported that the administration of the thyroid hormone, L-triiodothyronine (T3), markedly accelerated the development of experimental hypertension associated with a high-salt intake in intact rate. Earlier, Selye and his associates and Masson, Corcoran, and Page has observed a similar effect from thyroxin in uninephrectomized salt-fed rats. We were aware of the fact that oxidative phosphorylation is uncoupled by the thyroid hormone and were intrigued by the possibility that such u… more

Gene Structure: Genetic Fine Structure. Remarks.

Description: Though only recently established, this concept has been developing for a long time. More than thirty years ago Dubinin, Serebrovsky, and other, investigating the phenotypes of a number of "achaete-scute" alleles of Drosophilia melanogaster, found that the alleles could be arranged in a definite series accoding to bristle patters, and also that the heterozygotes lacked only those bristles which were affected in common by both participating alleles. They concluded that the serial classification o… more

An Investigation of the Low Frequency Motions in Isotactic and Atactic Polypropylene by Neutron Inelastic Scattering

Description: The vibrational spectra between 1000 and 30 cm-1, derived from measurements of the inelastic scattering of "cold" neutrons, are presented for isotactic polypropylene at samples temperatures below and above both the glass transition and the melting point. A tentative assignment of the observed modes is suggested by comparison with recent calculations by Miyazawa, Ideguchi, and Fukushima of the optically active phases of the fundamental vibrations for an isotactic helical polypropylene chain and … more
