Title Alternative Applications of critical point drying for scanning electron microscopic study of clay minerals
FullText URL pitsr_044_001_006.pdf
Author Noishiki, Yasuharu| Tazaki, Kazue|
Abstract The scanning electron microscopic studies of the clay minerals have usually been made on air-dried samples. The air-drying method is, however, not always preferable for H(2)O rich clay minerals such as imogolite because of their strong contraction in the dehydration process. The present writers examined the critical point drying for H(2)O rich clay mineral (imogolite) and proved that this drying method is excellent in preservation of natural surface of the minerals than that of air-drying. Imogolite which examined was separated from Kurayoshi pumice beds. The samples were treated first with OsO(4) solution and then were dehydrated progressively with ethanol. After completing above treatments, the imogolites which sealed in vessel were dried successively at critical point of CO(2). The samples were mounted onto brass stubs and coated first with carbon and then with Au-Pd alloy. The Japan Electron Optics Laboratory Co. scanning electron microscope Model JSM-50A which was installed in the Division of Rehabilitation Medicine in the present Institute was used at the operating conditions: accelerating voltage 25kV, magnifications ranging from 3000 to 40000. The scanning electron micrographs of the air-dried imogolite are shown in plate I, and cry tical point dried ones are in plate II and III. The former shows twig-like shape which indicated the effect of contractility, whereas the latter exhibits softly curled and entangled threads. The diameter of these threads ranges from 280A to 560A.

Title Alternative A report on the physically handicapped persons caused by rheumatoid arthritis in Tottori Prefecture, Japan
FullText URL 044_055_060.pdf
Author Kitayama, Minoru|
Abstract The physically handicapped persons caused by rheumatoid arthritis were studied in Tottori prefecture in July 1973. The following results were obtained ; 1. The hand i capped per sons of 265, who were recognized as the handicapped by the government authori ties, were observed. The prevalence rate was 4.7 to 10,000 of the population and 15 to 1, 000 of the total number of the hand i capped. 2. The prevalence rate of the handicapped to the total number of patients with rheumatoid arthritis was 15.4%. 3. On a reginal distribution, the prevalence rate of the handicapped to the regional population were calculated between from 0.20‰ to 0.77‰. The result showed that it was higher at rural than at urban districts. 4. The prevalence rate to population gradually increased with aging, especially over the fiftieth years. The prevalence rate of the number of serious handicapped (class 1+2) to the total number of handicapped was regnlarly at 40% between 30 and 60 years of age, but it increased over 70 years of age. 5. The sex ratio of fernIe to male was 3.3 : 1 on the total handicapped and 2.9 : 1 on the serious handicapped persons. On the other hand, the ratio was 5.1 : 1 on the group under 59 year s of age and 2.4 : 1 on the groupe over 60 years of age at the total handicapped. And then, the ratio was 5.0 : 1 on the younger group and 2.6 : 1 on the older group at the serious handicapped persons.

Title Alternative Oxygen Isotopic Composition of Water in the Living Things : Preliminary Analyses and Discussions
FullText URL pitsr_044_061_075.pdf
Author Kishima, Noriaki|
Abstract Oxygen isotope analysis was carried out, by use of a new method (oxalate equilibration method) of preparing CO(2) for mass spectrometry, on water samples extracted from a number of biological samples collected in Misasa Town and Hashizu Coast, Tottori Prefecture. The δ values (the per mil enrichment of (18)O in sample waters relative to the Standard Mean Ocean Water) were suggested to be distributed in the living things as follows. The water absorbed by plant roots was supposed to have the same δ value with the water outside it (δs. about -8‰), and in a rapidly transpiring plant, this water reached the leaves, partly infiltrating into the phloem. When transpiration was slow, on the other hand, the isotopic composition of ascending xylem sap was modified by the exchange of water with phloem. where leaf water with a higher δ value was migrating. As Gonfiantini et aI. (1965) and Dongmann et al. (1972) have odserved, leaf waters were enriched markedly in (18)O in the daytime. A criterion of the δ of leaf water may be the sum of δs and △δ that corresponds to the (18)O fractionation factor in the H(2)O(I)-H(2)O(v) system. The sum comes to about 0‰ at ordinary leaf temperatures. and really δ values near 0‰ were observed in leaves of some herbaceous plants, in exudate from a tip of vine of Kudzu, in body fluid of herbivorous insects, etc., but higher δs (up to +19‰) were also observed in some other leaves such as pine needles, Especially leaves showed an increase in δ by about 10 ‰ toward the pnd of November when the average temperature fell below 10℃, probably because of accumulation of the daily enrichment as a resul t of slow water absorption and circulation. A few plant species grown on a dune were analyzed and it seemed that, among them, herbaceous plants were dependent on spraied sea water and pine trees on ground water. δ's of petal water were dispersed (-9~-3‰), probably according to the volume-to-transpirational flux ratio of water in the petals. Succurent fruits in enlarging stage seemed to have lower δ's near δs, but in maturing stagp δ's increaspd to about -4‰, i.e., to the avpraged δ of Ieaf water in the day and night. Herbivorous insects (imagines and la rvae) in general had distinctly higher δ values than carnivorous insects, the border being at -1‰. However, lower δ's at about -5‰ were obserbed on aphides which might have been sucking somewhat dilutpd leaf water from seave tube cells. Sometimes the δ of a herbivorous insect was a few per mil higher than that of the leaf it was nibbling, probably as a result of evaporation of water from the insect and of respiration. The level at about -3‰ common for carnivorous insects could not be explained, although tipula and chironomus making a swarm also showed a δ value on the level. Blood of a heron did not show such a low δ as supposed from its food habit. As compared with the drinking water of -8‰, blood and urine were found to have an identical δ in the range of -4 to -5‰ in either mouse or man, The δ value of the oxidation water produced in man's body was estimated to be about -6‰ from an approximate water balance.

Title Alternative Two cases of bile duct anomalies
FullText URL 044_047_053.pdf
Author Murakami, Naoki| Tokioka, Masaaki| Ichikawa, Yukinobu| Ikegami, Tadaoki| Takasugi, Kiyoshi| Kitayama, Minoru|
Abstract We reported two cases of biIe duct anomalies detected by percutaneons transhepatic cholangiography. The first case was a 53-years-old woman who had a long cystic duct running paralleI to, and apparently adhered to a common hepatic duct distally, thus forming one large duct separated by a thin membrane within. Stenosis of the lower bile duct and subsequent dilatation of the proximal part of the duct were also demonstrated. In the second case, 5-years-old girl, the most conspicuous findings include stenosis of the extrahepatic duct with the resultant dilatation of the proximal par t of the common hepatic duct and bilateral hepatic ducts. Distally displaced opening of the common biIe duct to the duodenum and aberrant run of the duodenum were also disrcovered radiographically.
