    Description: We present the first regional-scale records of biogenic Barium (xsBa) fluxes in the Panama basin of the eastern-equatorial margin of the Pacific Ocean in order to assess xsBa as a paleoproductivity proxy. Measurements of xsBa from thirteen cores that range in water depths from about 700 ¬¬to 3000 m show an increase in 230Th normalized xsBa mass accumulation rates (MARs) with increasing water depth during both Marine Oxygen Isotope Stages (MIS) 1 and 2. The correlation of xsBa MARs with depth are strong despite differences in bulk sediment mass accumulation rates and differing degrees of sediment redistribution. We interpret the increasing xsBa with water depth as likely due to the continued decomposition and remineralization of falling and/or resuspended biogenic particles. xsBa does not seem to be affected by diagenetic sulfate reduction in most of the cores. Calculated estimates of xsBa preservation in the sediment pile are high and fluctuate between 45% - 52% throughout the last 25 kyr. Although xsBa fluxes can be a robust indicator of paleoproductivity, caution is needed if a) there is evidence of sulfate reduction in sediments being analyzed, and b) one is trying to quantify differences in paleoproductivity among sites that are located at different depths in the water column.

    Notes: Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate technetium-99m dextran (99mTc-Dx; molecular weight 81000) as a prospective protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) imaging agent. Twenty-two patients with diseases commonly associated with PLE and 12 healthy control subjects underwent intravenous99mTc-Dx scintigraphy. All of the 22 test patients showed significant radiotracer accumulation in the intestines within 3–4 h post injection. The focal, regional or generalised nature of the enteropathy and involvement of the large or small intestine could be identified in most cases. Four of the 12 apparently healthy subjects also showed minimal accumulation in the abdominal area occurring late in the study period. This could have been physiological, related to food habits or due to unsuspected intestinal worms. We attribute the high sensitivity of99mTc-Dx to its relatively fast blood (background) clearance. The radiotracer may have several other advantages over99mTc-labelled human serum albumin in imaging PLE.

    Notes: Abstract An extrachromosomal circular DNA of approximately 50-kb size was amplified in the hydroxyurea-resistant variant of Leishmania mexicana amazonensis. The amplicon carried the M2 gene of ribonucleotide reductase as part of the gene encoding resistance to hydroxyurea. The amplicon was unstable. It disappeared rapidly as shown in pulse-field gradient electrophoresis gels after reversion of the cells for 20–80 days. This loss of amplified DNA was accompanied by a rapid loss of resistance to hydroxyurea during the same period. The amplicon was not hybridized to specific probes from any of the four regions of DNA amplification previously reported for Leishmania. This region of amplification thus appears to be a new region of DNA amplification in Leishmania.

    Description: Dendrocalamus strictus ((Roxb.) Nees) was tested as a perennial host plant for propagation of an arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal consortium, initially isolated from rhizosphere of tea plants growing in the colder regions. The host performance in terms of colonization and spore production was compared with two annual hosts. The mycorrhizal dependency and growth enhancement potential were analyzed to test the suitability of D. strictus as a host plant. After 90 days of growth, 77.2% roots of D. strictus were found to be colonized by AM fungi with a spore count of 7 per g soil. AM fungal colonization and spore density values were lower in case of the host plants tested. Growth of D. strictus plants was found to be enhanced, in terms of all studied parameters; significant increases were recorded in shoot length as well as fresh and dry weight of shoots, a part of commercial importance. Similarly, P content, protein concentration, chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b contents were found to increase significantly. These data suggest that D. strictus can be used for the multiplication of AM fungi, isolated originally from the rhizosphere of tea; simultaneously, higher shoot biomass can provide additional economic benefit, using this environment friendly technology.
