Opis:
INTRODUCTION: Adenoids are nasopharyngeal lymphoid tissue with a relevant role in host defence against infection of upper respiratory tract. Nevertheless, adenoids are also a reservoir of microorganisms that can cause infections of upper respiratory tract and otitis particularly in children. OBJECTIVE: Evaluate and compare the association between biofilm assembly on adenoids and the incidence of recurrent infections in a paediatric population submitted to adenoidectomy by either infectious or non-infectious indication. METHODS: Scanning electron microscopy was used to assess biofilms on adenoid surface; biofilm assembly in vitro was monitored by crystal violet assay; antibiotic susceptibility was assessed following EUCAST guidelines; Hinfluenzae capsular typing was performed by PCR. RESULTS: Biofilms were present in 27.4% of adenoid samples and no statistical difference was found between infectious and non-infectious groups. In vitro, the most clinically relevant bacteria, H.influenzae, S.aureus, S.pyogenes, S.pneumoniae and M.catarrhalis, were mostly moderate biofilm assemblers (71.7%). 55.3% of these bacteria were intermediate/resistant to at least one of the tested antibiotics. No association was found between the ability to assemble biofilms in vitro and the presence of biofilms on adenoids nor antibiotic resistance. All H.influenzae were characterized as non-typeable. CONCLUSION: The presence of biofilms on adenoid surface was independent from clinical sample background. Bacterial ability to assemble biofilms in vitro cannot be used to predict biofilm assembly in vivo. The lack of correlation between biofilm formation and infectious respiratory diseases found contributes to question the relevance of biofilms on the pathogenesis of infectious diseases.

Opis:
The cracking of materials and fracture surface is of great practical and academic importance. Over the last few years the development of the fractography of crystalline alloys resulted in a useful tool for the prediction or failure analysis. Many attempts have been made to observe cracks using optical microscopy, X-ray topography and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Of these techniques, the resolution of optical microscopy and X-ray topography is too poor. By contrast, the resolution of TEM is high enough for detailed information to be obtained. However, in order to apply TEM observations, a thin foil specimen must be prepared, and it is usually extremely difficult to prepare such a specimen from a pre-selected region containing a crack. In the present work, deformation mechanisms fracture surfaces of Ni-based metallic glass samples have been studied by specially designed experiments. In order to study the deformation mechanisms and fracture the Ni-based metallic glasses have been investigated in the tensile test. The structure and fracture surfaces after the decohesion process in tensile tests were observed using transmission electron microscope (TEM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM), respectively. The studies of structure were performed on thin foils. Moreover the investigated tape was subjected to a banding test. Then, the tape was straightened and the thin foil from the area of maximum strain was prepared. This thin foil sample was deformed before the TEM investigation to obtain local tears.

Opis:
There are no papers examining the labellar micromorphology in Malaxidinae in detail. The aim of this paper is to present the results of labellar micromorphology of our studies on Malaxidinae. The micromorphology of nine species was examined and described (calli, nectaries, OP structures, concavities). These species are divided into six groups of which the lip morphology probably represents different forms of attracting and rewarding pollinators. Group one consists of Disticholiparis gregaria and Platystyliparis aurita with characteristic globular nectary and pad-like callus. The second group with Liparis nervosa has two conelike convexities. The third one is represented by Liparis sutupensis with spread lip, the basal callus, and the epichile often eroding with age. The fourth group (Stichorkis cespitosum) has a massive hypochil with basal callus and delicate epichil. The fifth group (Microstylis ophioglossoides, Dienia ophrydis) is characterized by a lip with developed lateral lobes, three deep concavities in the middle part, an erect callus, and many raphide cells.Crepidium cf. rheedii and Crepidium dryadum from the sixth group have a three-lobed lip with entire or toothed mid-lobe, basal callus, cavity surrounded by a rim and OP structures with raphide cells. We also emphasized the different way and place of nectar secretion in the subtribe and gave some suggestions about pollination strategies.

Opis:
Comparative studies of subaleurone and inner endosperm cells of dry mature caryopses from 8 low-protein and 7 high-protein varieties of rye, grown in similar conditions of isolated collection, were performed by means of scanning electron microscopy technique. Low protein varieties contained starch granules differentiated in the diameter embedded in the less dense protein matrix of the wide subaluerone region. High protein varieties, besides the larger aleurone cells had in some examples wider subaluerone layer with the dense protein matrix, which was very regular and less packed with starch granules. The inner endosperm cells of high-protein caryopses contained much more dense protein matrix all around the starch granules in contrast to low-protein caryopses, which were tightly packed with starch and had only a thin layer of protein matrix around them. Comparative pronase treatment of low- and high-protein rye caryopses confirmed the above observations. No granular protein bodies in any cells, besides the aleurone ones, could be observed.
Przeprowadzono badania porównawcze ilości i rozmieszczenia składników białkowych komórek warstw podaleuronowych i głębszych warstw endospermy w suchych, dojrzałych ziarniakach 8 niskobiałkowych i 7 wysokobiałkowych odmian żyta (tab.), wyhodowanych w 1974/75 r. w Skierniewicach i 1976/77 r. w Powsinie w identycznych warunkach izolowanej kolekcji zachowawczej z wykorzystaniem skaningowego mikroskopu elektronowego (SEM). W odmianach niskobiałkowych ziarna skrobiowe o zróżnicowanej średnicy były zatopione w grubej warstwie matrycy białkowej w komórkach cienkiej warstwy podaleuronowej (fot. 1, 2, 3). W odmianach wysokobiałkowych, oprócz zdarzających się w wypadku niektórych odmian większych komórek warstwy aleuronowej, warstwa podaleuronowa była lepiej wykształcona z dużą ilością matrycy białkowej i regularnymi i mniej upakowanymi w niej ziarnami skrobi (fot. 4, 5). Również w głębszych warstwach endospermy komórki ziarniaków odmian wysokobiałkowych zawierały więcej matrycy białkowej otaczającej ziarna skrobi w przeciwieństwie do niskobiałkowych, których komórki wypełnione są szczelnie ziarnami skrobi i zawierają niewielkie ilości białek pomiędzy nimi oraz białko cytoplazmatyczne pod ścianami komórek. Porównawcze trawienie pronazą skrawków ziarniaków odmian nisko- i wysokobiałkowych (fot.8) potwierdziło powyższe twierdzenia. Nie zauważono w komórkach innych niż aleuronowe granularnych ciał białkowych w żadnej z badanych odmian żyta.

The phase composition of the El Hammami meteorite was investigated by X-ray, magnetostatic, Mössbauer effect and environmental scanning electron microscopy methods. Performed investigations indicated that this meteorite consists of aluminosilicates, olivine (Mg,Fe)2SiO4, pyroxene (Ca,Mg,Fe)SiO3, kamacite (bcc Fe-Ni alloy) and troilite (FeS). Some inclusions of Ti and Cr were observed by scanning electron microscopy. The concentration of Ni in kamacite was determined by comparison of the Mössabauer spectra of Fe-Ni phase in the meteorite with those for synthetic bcc Fe-Ni alloys (5, 10, 25% Ni).

This paper presents the results of investigations into the structure, microstructure and magnetic properties of Fe61Co10Y8W1B20 amorphous alloy. The alloy samples were in two physical forms: (1) plates of approximate thickness 0.5 mm (so-called bulk amorphous alloys) and (2) a ribbon of approximate thickness 35 μm (so-called classic amorphous alloy). The investigations comprised: X-ray diffractometry, Mössbauer spectrometry, transmission electron microscopy, and selected magnetic measurements; all of the investigations were carried out on samples in the as-quenched state. Analysis of the obtained SEM and TEM images, X-ray diffraction patterns, Mössbauer spectrometry results and measurements of the magnetisation in a high magnetic field facilitated collectively the detailed description of the structure of the investigated alloy, which was found to depend on the quenching speed.

Mg60 Zn35 Ca5 amorphous powder alloys were synthesized by mechanical alloying (MA) technique. The results of the influence of high-energy ball-milling time on amorphization of the Mg60 Zn35 Ca5 elemental blend (intended for biomedical application) were presented in the study. The amorphization process was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Initial elemental powders were mechanically alloyed in a Spex 8000 high-energy ball mill at different milling times (from 3 to 24 h). Observation of the powder morphology after various stages of milling leads to the conclusion that with the increase of the milling time the size of the powder particles as well as the degree of aggregation change. The partially amorphous powders were obtained in the Mg60 Zn35 Ca5 alloy after milling for 13-18h. The results indicate that this technique is a powerful process for preparing Mg60 Zn35 Ca5 alloys with amorphous and nanocrystalline structure.

Nowadays nanostructures are more and more often designed as carriers for drug delivery, especially to improve the drug pharmacokinetics and pharmaco-dynamics. Numerous kinds of nanostructures are considered a good prospect for medical applications thanks to their small size, acceptable biocompatibility and toxicity. Due to the fact that nanotechnology is a new field of science, every nano-scale product must be thoroughly examined regarding its toxicity to the human body. This study provides new insights into effects of exposing endothelial cells to the selected nanostructures. Dendrimers of the fourth generation (PAMAMs), multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and silver nanoparticles (SNPs) were used to evaluate nanostructures influence on endothelial cells in vitro. The nanostructures were evaluated via transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering technique. The cells previously exposed to the nanostructures were observed and analyzed via the atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy to obtain a quantitative evaluation of the cells morphology. The presence of multi-walled carbon nanotubes and silver nanoparticles on the cells surface was confirmed by the scanning electron microscopy. Our results confirm that the surface association and/or uptake of nanostructures by the cells resulting from physicochemical and biological processes, affect the cells morphology. Morphological changes can be induced by the membrane proteins interaction with nanomaterials, which trigger a sequence of intracel-lular biological processes.

The use of porous materials is enjoying tremendous popularity and attention of the advance scientific communities due to their excellent adsorptive and catalytic activities. Clays are one of the most important candidates in the porous community which shows the above mentioned activities after modifing with a different intercalating agent. The paper is focused on the infiuence of some inorganic intercalating agents (NaOH) on the morphology of the variously intercalated clay samples. The alkali metal was used as the inorganic intercalating agent. The effect of intercalation temperature, intercalation agent concentration and intercalation time on the pre-baked clay morphology were also part of the study. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) study was performed to evaluate the morphological changes of the resultant intercalates. Different morphological properties were improved significantly in the case of the inorganically modified clay samples. Thus, such intercalations are suggested to be effective if the clays under study are to be used for different industrial process at elevated conditions.

Opis:
Indium sulfide (β-In₂S₃) thin films are synthesized by chemical bath deposition method using three different complexing agent volumes, triethanolamine (TEA) (0.30, 0.45, and 0.60 ml). The effect of complexing agent on the structural, morphological, optical and electrical properties of chemically deposited indium sulfide (β-In₂S₃) thin films have been investigated in this work. The characterization of the present films is carried out using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy and electrical measurements. The structure of the films is polycrystalline with a cubic phase of β-In₂S₃. Firstly, the band gap of the film decreases from 3.74 eV to 3.15 eV by adding 0.30 ml TEA. Then, it increases to 3.79 eV with increasing TEA. Nevertheless, previously, the refractive index of the films increases from 2.13 to 2.67 for the 0.30 mL TEA and then it decreases to the value of 2.11 with increasing TEA. Extinction coefficient, real and dielectric constant of the films are calculated using the absorption and transmittance spectra. Firstly, the electrical resistivity of the films decreases from 3.46×10⁸ Ω cm to 1.33×10⁷ Ω cm by adding 0.30 ml TEA. Then, it increases to the value of 2.16×10⁹ Ω cm with increasing TEA. Eventually, the more conductive film with worm-like morphology detected from the scanning electron microscopy is synthesized using 0.30 ml TEA. These results show that complexing agent has an important effect on the structural, morphological, optical and electrical properties of the deposited films.

Opis:
Sandy-gravel accumulations are frequent features on the plateaux of the Serra da Estrela II and other granitic mountains in Portugal. Their genesis has been attributed to both eolian and water processes and a detailed sedimentological study is needed to better understand the mechanisms involved. The present paper provides results obtained from the heavy mineral analysis and optical and scanning electron microscope study of samples from two sandy-gravel accumulations from the Serra da Estrela. The results indicate that the finer fractions of the original sediment have been illuviated. A well-sorted surface layer and poorly sorted subsurface of the accumulation have resulted from this process. A very short duration of eolian processes is evident from the analysis. Although wind seems to have been the responsible for the morphology of the accumulation, its action was not enough to produce significant abrasion in the surface of quartz grains.
