- The VLBI technique is used to study the fine structure of the quasar 3C 345 at = 49 cm. It is shown that the low-frequency radio emission from the core is feeble, whereas the bright compact component corresponds to the jet region adjacent to the core, rather than to the core itself. This region is ~6.4 mas in size, and its brightness temperature, Tb near equal 0.6 1012 K, does not go beyond the Compton limit. The core itself is an injector of relativistic particles surrounded by a wall of thermal plasma. Between 1983.9 and 1990.8, the radio flux density and angular size of the compact component increased by a factor of about 2, while its brightness temperature did not change markedly. During this period, the emission at millimeter wavelengths was reduced about twofold; the UV emission also decreased. The low-frequency variability is shown to be a result of variations in the transparency of the wall of a cocoon—the thermal plasma surrounding the jet. The electron density in the cocoon wall near the bright compact component is Ne near equal 105 cm3 and rises toward the core as ~ r 2. The polarized emission of the quasar originates mainly from the same region, where compact sources are seen athigh frequencies. Its rotation measure is RM near equal 29 rad m–2 and increases toward the core as ~ r 3, reaching 8 104 rad m–2. In the vicinity of the core, the longitudinal component of the magnetic field is ~0.1 mG.

- The structure of the quasar 3C345 has been studied at lambda 49cm with a global VLBI network. The core has a low-freuqncy cut off in its spectrum, and is very weak at this wavelength. The most compact bright knot is the part of the jet nearest to the nucleus, with a size of about 5x4 mas and a brightness temperature of Tb about 0.6 10^12 K. Its flux density and solid angle increased by a factor of about 2 during the period 1983.9 to 1990.8, but the birghtness temperature did not change significantly. The emission at millimeter wavelengths decreased by a factor of about 2 during the same period, while the UV emission from the nucleus also dcreased. We suggest that variations in the low-frequency emissions are caused by changes in the absorption by a cocoon - the thermal plasma surrounding the jet. The electron density in the region is Ne about 10^5 cm^-3and the longitudal field is about 40 microG. The emission measure and the rotation measure vary with r, the distance from the nucleus as r^-3. The data at lamda 49cm indi´cate several components in and near the "hotspot" at the end of the arcsec jet.

- Lipoamino acid and liposaccharide conjugates of somatostatin analogue TT-232 were synthesized to modify the physicochemical properties of the parent peptide. The relative position, the number, and the nature of the lipid and/or saccharide moieties were varied. Experiments in vitro clearly showed that many compounds modified at the N- and/or C-terminus with lipid or sugar moieties retained the biological activity of the parent compound. An interesting construct was synthesized containing lipid and sugar units at opposite ends of the somatostatin analogue, so that the entire molecule could be considered as an amphipathic surfactant.
