As part of the ANDRILL McMurdo Ice Shelf (MIS) Project two comprehensive sets of geophysical data were collected on ice at the AND-1B drillsite. Whole-core physical properties were determined with high vertical resolution to a depth of 1285 mbsf. A multi-sensor-core-logger was used to determine bulk density, sonic velocity, magnetic susceptibility and electrical resistivity. After drilling, a s...

This research evaluated the efficacy of a psycho-educational Internet self-help tool to educate and support recently (1-6 months) bereaved individuals. The goal of the website was to help users normalize their grief to enhance their adaptive adjustment. A randomized controlled trial evaluated the gains in social cognitive theory constructs and state anxiety. Compared to the control group (N = 3...

Two polypyridyl copper(II) complexes, [Cu(phen)(phen-dione)Cl]Cl (1) and [Cu(bpy) (phen-dione)Cl]Cl (2), (where Phen =1,10-phenanthroline, bpy =2,2'-bipyridine and Phen-dione = 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione), were used as efficient catalysts for the oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde. The effects of various parameters such as reaction temperature, reaction time, etc. were studied. The ...

This study examined mechanisms of Cl- transport in rat lymphocytes under a variety of conditions. Basal intracellular Cl- concentration ([Cl-]i) was not different between cells assayed in the presence of HCO3- or its absence (HEPES). Removal of external Cl- resulted in a fall in [Cl-]i and a rapid rise in intracellular pH (pH(i)). Both Cl- efflux and the rise in pH(i) were blocked by DIDS or re...

The chemiluminescence (CL) arising from the reaction of bis(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)oxalate (TCPO) with H2O2 in the presence of a novel blue fluorescer, furandicarboxylate derivative, has been studied. The relationship between the CL intensity and concentrations of peroxyoxalate, sodium salicylate, H2O2 and furandicarboxylate derivative as fluorescer has been investigated. Kinetic parameters for ...
