Poecilopompilus costatus costatus (taschenberg)

description: Poecilopompilus costatus costatus (Taschenberg)
 BRAZIL: Brasilia, Distrito Federal, Universidade de Brasilia, Campus Darcy Riberio; 26 February 2022; J. P. F. T. Cavalcanti. Host: Araneus horizonte Levi (Araneidae), adult female. Capture and immobilization of the host spider was not seen. The wasp cached the paralyzed spider, dorsal side upward with legs spread, on a large broad leaf, many centimeters above the ground. She walked around the spider with wings raised at>45° angle, cleaned her face and mouthparts as they extended downward, and cleaned her stinger with her hind tarsi. She flew to the ground and began loosening the reddish soil surface with her mandibles and moving the soil backwards using her forelegs alternately, depositing the soil in front of the excavation. She continued to use her mandibles considerably to loosen the soil as she dug deeper and raked the soil backwards with the forelegs moving alternately, holding her wings at a 45° angle as she backed from the opening. After several minutes of digging, she paused and flew to the immobilized spider, then to the ground surface holding the orb-weaver, and, without hesitation, dragged it rapidly backwards across the ground and released it on the ground near her burrow, keeping her wings raised at a>45° angle. During transport she held the spider dorsal side upward, grasping the base of its third right leg with her mandibles. She entered and re-inspected the burrow, emerged quickly, grasped the spider with her mandibles by the tibia of its third right leg and pulled it downward into the burrow. It is likely that the wasp grasped the spider by its spinnerets to pull it further down and into the ovoid cell. After several minutes, the wasp appeared headfirst in the burrow as she flung soil backward into the opening, using her forelegs alternately. She finished the nest closure by vigorously hammering the soil fill with the apex of her metanotum, her entire body and wings shaking vigorously in the process (Cavalcanti 2022a, b, c, d).
 Araneus horizonte is a new host family, genus, and species for Poecilopompilus costatus. Martins (1991) reported P. algidus fervidus capturing and provisioning nests with Trichonephila clavipes (Linnaeus) (Nephilidae) in June and Parawixia sp., Argiope argentata Linnaeus, and Araneus sp. (all Araneidae) later in the year at Rio Claro, São Paulo State, Brazil.

title: Zymodemes of Trypanosoma Congolense and a preliminary assessment of their epidemiological significance
Creators: name: Young, CJ
Publisher: name: London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
Year: 1980

description: Throughout this century, considerable confusion has arisen over the specific status of members of the subgenus Nannomonas. At the present time, only two species are generally recognized, T.(N.) congolense and T.(N.) simiae. However, many differences still exist in morphological and behavioural characteristics of T.congolense stocks, which led in the past, to numerous designations of species, subspecies and varieties. In an attempt to clarify the problems, 78 stocks of T.congolense were characterized intrinsically by enzyme polymorphism. Conditions devised for thin-layer starch-gel electrophoresis of the isoenzymes of trypanosomes from other subgenera were modified for 14 enzymes: L-threonine 3-dehydrogenase (TDH), purine nucleoside hydrolase (NH), pyruvate kinase (PK), glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), aspartate aminotransferase (ASAT), phoepho-glucomutase (PGM), alanine aminotransferase (ALAT), malate dehydro-genase (decarboxylating NADP) (ME), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), glucose phosphate isomerase (GPI) and four peptidases using either L-leucylglycylglycine (PEP 1) or L-leucyl-L-alanine (PEP 2) as substrate. Eight of these enzymes readily distinguished T.congolense from representatives of the subgenera Trypanozoon and Duttonella. The numbers of different isoenzyme patterns for T. congolense, each often with multiple banding, ranged from one for TDH, PK and NH, to ten for GPI. Altogether 71 different isoenzyme bands were seen and from the various combinations of these bands, 75 zymodemes were found among the 78 atocke of T. congolense examined. The degree of relationship between the zymodemes was established by computer analysis. A major dichotomy existed between stocks originating from savannah regions and those from riverine or forest areas. Thia distinction was most obvious in the GPI, PEP 1 and PEP 2 isoenzyme patterns. Besides morphological comparisons of these two major zymodemes, initial investigations of behavioural characteristics included transmissibility by Glossina app., drug sensitivity, infectivity and susceptibility to disease in different strains of inbred mice. Differences between the two majpr zymodemes were found in morphology and drug sensitivity; the savannah zymodeme appeared to be more efficiently transmitted than the riverine/forest zymodeme by the savannah tests, fly, G.morsitans. The susceptibility to disease of two strains of inbred mice varied with different trypanosome stocks; there was no correlation with the two major zymodemes. The relevance of these findings is disussed.
Solution-processed photonics for light and heat management
Creators: name: Bachevillier, Stefan
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Printed photonic devices have drawn increasing interest during the last decade thanks to the prospect of low-cost, high-throughput and large-area manufacturing. However, the realisation of novel solution-processed technologies requires the development of new advanced and functional materials that combine the often-superior properties of inorganics with the straightforward, low-cost fabrication features of organics. This thesis is based on a printable molecular hybrid composed of titanium oxide hydrates and the commodity polymer poly(vinyl alcohol) exhibiting high refractive index, low optical losses, pristine film quality and ease of production. After confirmation of the structural organisation leading to these properties by optical and material characterisations, thermal patterning of the refractive index within a thin-film was found possible. This was thanks to the short time required to anneal the material, measured by time-resolved optical spectroscopy. The local change in refractive index and the versatile tunability of the hybrid allowed the straightforward fabrication of multiple coplanar refractive indices and large gradients by thermal stamping. Furthermore, a novel microcontact photo-annealing method enabled sharper patterns, crucial for advanced planar photonic structures such as lightguides for solar concentration. The high index and excellent quality of hybrid films were then applied in multilayer photonic structures. Combined for the first time with the commodity polymer poly(methyl methacrylate), distributed Bragg reflectors were produced in close agreement with optical modellings using a transfer-matrix method. Large-area (100 cmxcm) devices as well as cylindrical dielectric mirrors were fabricated through dip-coating methods. Finally, broadband reflectors were modelled and produced by geometrical chirping of the multilayer structure. Extended reflection band of 400 nm was enabled across the whole visible range while still transparent to infrared. Similarly, a 81-layer chirped design was used to reflect the solar near-infrared responsible for heating within buildings. This metal-free omnidirectional heat reflector was shown to be equivalent to commercial silver-based window glazings. A brief energy analysis confirms its suitability for low-solar heat gain by blocking most of the solar radiation, both in UV and infrared, while being transparent to visible light. This, to the best knowledge of the author, is the first demonstration of a solution-processed dielectric mirror for low-solar heat gain window glazing.

The relationships between genetic diseases and the structures of protein and their interactions
Creators: name: Ittisoponpisan, Sirawit
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: The rapid growth in the number of human genome sequences is leading to the discovery of numerous single amino acid variants (SAVs), some of which are associated with genetic disease. Understanding these variants at both the sequence level and the structural level is of great beneﬁts particularly for clinical researchers. The ﬁrst part of this thesis focuses on characterising pleiotropic proteins (proteins associated with multiple disease phenotypes). This study shows that pleiotropic proteins have unique properties: 1) they are enriched in disease-associated SAVs and rare neutral SAVs, 2) they tend to contain disordered regions, 3) they tend to have a higher number of protein-protein interactions, and 4), they are more speciﬁc to diseases of certain classes such as neoplasm, nervous system, and congenital malformation. This new understanding of pleiotropic proteins could have important implications for evolutionary studies, genetic studies, and any other related ﬁeld. At the structural level, the effects of SAVs on protein structures were analysed by remodelling high-quality PDB coordinates of proteins to obtain their corresponding mutant structures. By considering 16 structural features affecting protein stability, 40% of disease-associated SAVs and 11.5% neutral SAVs were shown to cause at least one of the 16 structural effects. The limited number of available experimental PDB structures poses a major challenge in structural analysis. However, incorporating homology models allows more SAVs to be analysed as the residue coverage increases from 17% to approximately 50%. The same analysis was repeated on homology models with sequence identity ranging from 30% to 95%. Similar percentages of disease-associated and neutral SAVs causing structural effects were observed even on models with low sequence identity (<40%). Subsequently, a web server Missense3D was developed to help analyse the structural effect of SAVs on protein structures. A better understanding of genetic variants could help researchers unveil the molecular mechanisms underlying human disease, which could support further research such as in drug design and personalised medicine.
Optimizing additive manufactured porous structures for orthopaedics

Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: To accelerate bone regeneration, porous scaffolds in orthopaedics should have a stiffness less than the bone being replaced, due to the mechanobiology of bone, whilst maintaining maximum yield and fatigue strength to combat implant failure. This PhD explored optimising additively manufactured (AM) porous structures for application as bone ingrowth scaffolds. The effect laser parameters and laser scanning strategies have on the strut thickness, yield strength, and fatigue strength of porous structures was investigated. The yield and fatigue strength of a porous structure for a given stiffness could be increased up to 10%, mostly due to changes in internal porosity and microstructure. Optimisation of laser power was material specific, whilst scan strategy optimisation was material independent. Porous structures were manufactured from various biocompatible metals. Trends observed during fatigue testing for monolithic metals and statically for solid and porous AM structures were not always indicative of the fatigue behaviour of porous AM structures. Unlike their solid counterparts and as porous structures, tantalum and a titanium-tantalum alloy outperformed titanium grade 23 and commercially pure titanium in fatigue-strength:stiffness. In vivo testing of a heterogeneous porous scaffold, intended to maintain mechanical homeostasis in the medial femoral condyle of ewes, was performed. Bone ingrowth into the scaffold was 10.73±2.97% after 6 weeks. Fine woven bone, in the interior of the scaffold, and intense formations of developed woven bone overlaid with lamellar bone at the implant periphery were observed. This research will allow manufacturers, particularly in orthopaedics, to improve their additive manufacturing processes to build stronger porous structures that last longer. The in vivo portion of this study and the emphasis on understanding the mechanical environment implants are in, should allow for more accurate testing of the mechanobiology of bone in response to implanted porous scaffolds and for better translation from in vivo studies to commercial implants.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.

 MEXICO: Morelos State, Cuernavaca; 5 November 2022, 1532 CST; M. Schmidt and G. Born-Schmidt. Host: Curicaberis minax (O. Pickard-Cambridge) (Sparassidae), penultimate male. The wasp grasped the immobilized giant crab spider by the base of its right pedipalp or base of left foreleg with her mandibles and, maintaining it in an upright or dorsal side upward position, dragged it backwards across a large rock (Fig. 17; Schmidt and Born-Schmidt 2022).
 There are two prior host records for Xerochares expulsus, Olios giganteus (Keyserling), juvenile, and Curicaberis ? culiacan Rheims, adult female (both Sparassidae) (Kurczewski et al. 2022b). The wasp with Curicaberis ? culiacan also grasped the immobilized spider’s pedipalp with her mandibles during transport, whereas the wasp with the larger Olios giganteus grasped the trochanter of its left foreleg with her mandibles during transport (Kurczewski et al. 2022b).
 MEXICO: Sonora State, Álamos Municipality; 19 January 2023, 1253 MST; J. Gorey. Host: Curicaberis abnormis (Keyserling), adult female. The wasp stood atop the immobilized huntsman spider and examined it with her antennae as it laid, dorsal side upward, on leaf litter. She, then, grasped the spider by its left chelicera with her mandibles and started to drag it backwards, dorsal side upward, through the duff (Gorey 2023).
 Curicaberis abnormis is a new host species for Xerochares expulsus. This is the third host record of the genus Curicaberis Rheims for X. expulsus, all from Mexico (Kurczewski et al. 2022). The four known host records reported for X. expulsus are for species of Sparassidae (huntsman or giant crab spiders) (Kurczewski et al. 2022b).

An ultra-performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry method was used for analysing the faecal, bile, plasma and urine samples of rats administrated with icariside II. In all, 27 metabolites were identified in the biosamples. Of these, 20, including F1–F12, D3, D4, D6, D7–D9 and M3, M4, were, to our knowledge, reported for the first time. The results indicated that icariside II was metabolised via desugarisation, dehydrogenation, hydrogenation, hydroxylation, demethylation, glucuronidation, dehydration and glycosylation pathways in vivo. Specific hydrolysis of 7-O glucosides in the gut lumen and glucuronic acid conjugation in the liver were considered as the main physiologic processes of icariside II. This study revealed the possible metabolite profiles of icariside II in rats.

description: An efficient and simple route for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzimidazolylpyrimidines 5a-i has been developed from benzimidazolylunsaturated nitriles 2 using nitrogen nucleophiles. Treatment of 2 with thiourea/urea/guanidine hydrochloride in aq. KOH under reflux for 30 min gave 3, which on further alkylation with an alkylating agent under PTC conditions gave 5a-i. Alternatively 5a-i could also be prepared by treatment of 2 with an alkylating agent under PTC conditions followed by treatment with thiourea /urea/guanidine hydrochloride in aq. KOH for 30 min.

description: 13,14-Dihydroxy-8,11,13-podocarpatrien-7-one (1) and a series of ring C aromatic diterpene derivatives were synthesised from (+)-manool (4) and evaluated for their cytotoxic, leishmanicidal and trypanocidal activities. Our results indicated that compound 1 and other podocarpane-type intermediates are cytotoxic. Cleavage of C6–C7 bond of compound 7 improved cytotoxic activity, indicating that, in particular, the 6,7-seco-podocarpane-type compound 20 might serve as a lead compound for further development.

description: Arachnospila trochilinus (Holmberg) (Erratum from Kurczewski et al. 2020)
 ARGENTINA: Mendoza Province, Las Heras; 24 August 2022, 2:54 PM; D. Ganime. Host: Lycosa erythrognatha Lucas (Lycosidae), adult or subadult female. The wasp grasped the immobilized wolf spider by the base of its left pedipalp with her mandibles and pulled it backwards, dorsal side upward, across stones and large rocks. She interrupted prey transport to move into grasses to groom herself before resuming transport of the spider (Ganime 2022).
 This is the first host record and new host family, genus, and species for Arachnospila trochilinus, if it is that species. The host spider is the same as for A. imitatrix, Lycosa erythrognatha, reported simply as? Lycosa sp. (Kurczewski et al. 2020). In that paper, the wasp captor was erroneously reported as Anoplius (Arachnophroctonus) sobrinus (Spinola).

description: Allelopathy is an important phenomenon that modifies the ecosystem. A plant can enhance or reduce the growth of other plant due to the presence of a number of allelochemicals in its different parts. Euphorbia helioscopia and Euphorbia pulcherrima are medicinal plant species. Both these species are collected from wild resources for various purposes. To reduce the pressure on wild population, it is important to bring them into cultivation. Therefore, the allelopathic effects of E. helioscopia and E. pulcherrima on the growth of lettuce seeds were studied. Three different concentrations (2%, 4% and 6%) of five different solvents (methanol, acetone, ethyl acetate, n-hexane and distilled water) were used to estimate the allelopathic potential of the above-mentioned Euphorbia species. Results indicated a non-significant growth inhibitory effect of both plants on lettuce seeds. Different extracts reduced the growth of test plant to some extent but this inhibition was not significant. From the observed results, it was concluded that the studied Euphorbia species, being medicinally important crops, can be introduced as intercrop with other cash crops.
title: Studies on nematode secretory antigens in immunodiagnosis with special reference to toxocariasis
Creators: name: de Savigny, DH

description: Inmunodiagnosis of nematode infections in man and animals is often inaccurate and unreliable. A rationale is presented for a novel serologic approach which uses in vitro cultivation of the relevant parasitic stages to isolate in vitro released secretory antigens for use in irrrnunoenzymatic assays. The rationale was tested in the toxocariasis model in man and experimental animals and found to be valid. An in vitro cultivation system is described for the maintenance, in synthetic medium. of actively metabolizing Toxocara canis infective larvae producing 200 pg of antigen per larva per day. Toxocaral secretory antigen was shown to be a simple mixture of at least three genus specific, protein antigens with a major component molecular weight of 42 k daltons and isoelectric point of pI = 9.5. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay designed to quantitate anti-toxocaral responses was validated in assays of over 1000 sera from human subjects and experimental animals. Results indicated an advance from existing methodologies. The assay was further evaluated in practice for the serodiagnosis of visceral and ocular toxocariasis. In man. these forms exhibited distinct serological patterns. A realistic model of experimental ocular toxocariasis was developed in the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta), and results indicated that intraocular toxocaral larvae are capable of inducing retinal pathology in animals sensitized by a previous toxocaral infection, but not in animals which are Toxocara naïve. Seroepidemiologic studies demonstrated that Iceland and Sudan are non-endemic. England is endemic and Czechoslovakia and Ghana are hyperendemic for toxocariasis. Within these areas subpopulations were identified with higher prevalence of infection. Seroepidemiology in naturally infected dogs revealed that tolerance to toxocaral secretions may occur in pups less than six months of age. The studies indicate that in vitro derived, nematode secretory antigens, used in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays can provide highly sensitive, genus specific, and reliable immunodiagnostic and seroepidemiologic data on a basis that is both economical and practical. It is proposed that this approach might be applied to the diagnosis of other tissue-invasive nematode infections.

description: Methods: Survey design and implementation The primary goals of our study were threefold: to determine which factors influenced foreign STEM students to pursue their education in the United States; their plans to remain or return home after graduation; and their decision to pursue academic or business-oriented careers. To accomplish this, we emailed international graduate students in STEM fields at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) with an introduction to the study and a survey link, assuring anonymity for their responses. UCSB is a public research university with a total enrollment of approximately 22,000 students, of which about 3,000 students are those at the graduate level. The survey consisted of four categories of questions: (1) basic background information (e.g., age, gender, major, year of study); (2) reasons for studying in the U.S.; (3) perceptions of their graduate education in the U.S.; and (4) plans after graduation. The online survey was active from May 2-24, 2013, and resulted in a 42% completion rate.[1] Students were given an option at the end of the survey to specify their interest in conducting any follow-up interviews. A total of 12 follow-up interviews were conducted between January 27 and February 21, 2014. Data: Survey sent to international graduate students. Survey results are posted in another file.

description: The Assessment Rubric for Physics Inquiry (ARPI) is meant for assessing the quality of guided and open inquiry at (pre-) University level. The rubric is divided into six clusters: Asking questions Design Method & Procedure Analysis Conclusion and Evaluation (Peer) Review Per cluster, understandings a researcher has and applies are formulated. A short description is given of how these understandings are demonstrated (observable actions and/or assessable products) by the researcher. Per understanding indicators at three (lowest, intermediate, highest) levels of performance have been devised. As we assume a continuum of level, students' performance can fall between two levels of performance. Therefore, empty columns between the three levels with indicators are included. A Dutch version of the rubric is included.

description: In the recent past it has been argued, that during ear surgery, drilling induced noise
 can exceed recommended daily exposure limits [1]. Because of general anesthesia
 of the patients, evaluation of bone conducted noise-level is limited to indirect and
 objective measurements. Therefore, we have developed a system which allows an
 online estimation of the equivalent sound pressure level during the surgery.
