- The structure of small metal crystals has been intensively examined by high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM). In particular, multiply-twinned gold and silver crystals have been characterized using the profile-imaging method1,2 at atomic resolution, and reconstructed metal surfaces observed2. Crystal structure images of large gold clusters consisting of 55 gold atoms arranged in a cubeoctahedron have been recorded3 using 2.5 Å resolution, and crystal growth, row by row, on a {111} surface has been documented4 using a low-light-level silicon-intensified target television (TV) camera and video system with an on-line image processor. Direct imaging of rearrangements of atomic columns on extended gold surface5 established that profile imaging can provide information about surface self-diffusion. The motion of surface atoms, recorded with a real-time video tape-recorder (VTR) system, and the formation of surface atom steps on {100} surfaces, although not {111}, has also been reported recently6. Dynamic HREM observations at TV rate showing defect motion in gold7 and CdTe (refs. 8, 9) has given information on ‘in-lattice’ rearrangements of columns of atoms. We report here surface profile images recorded with the electron beam along the 〈110〉 direction with spatial resolution of ∼2.0 Å which reveal changes in occupancy of the atom columns often within periods of less than 0.1 s. Surfaces with several adjacent atom columns involved in rapid structural changes frequently interacted with a cloud of atoms extending out to 9 Å off the crystal and changes in shape and density of the clouds were recorded. Although these clouds have already been described6,10, the present work is the first to analyse these events properly and to describe them in detail. The motion of atomic columns and the existence of atom clouds revealed here may have important consequences for crystal growth, surface science and catalysis studies.

- Blood flow was examined in sciatic nerves of pentobarbital-anesthetized rats by means of laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) and intravenous [14C]iodoantipyrine infusion. Continuous LDF signals demonstrated slow oscillations and acute, pressure-related changes in flow. The steady-state LDF signal was related linearly to nerve blood flow, as measured with [14C]iodoantipyrine, in intact nerves and nerves stripped of the epineurium. In 14 intact nerves, nerve blood flow averaged 0.27 +/- 0.03 (SE) ml X min-1 X g-1, whereas it averaged 0.13 +/- 0.01 in 5 stripped nerves. Autoradiographs of [3H]-nicotine-infused nerves and intra-arterial injection of 57Co-labeled microspheres demonstrated that flow was not uniform throughout the nerve cross section. The results indicate that LDF can be used to examine nerve blood flow in vivo, demonstrate a linear relation between the LDF signal and flow, and establish absolute values for blood flow in intact and stripped nerves of the anesthetized rat.

Role of neutrophils in hemorrhagic shock-induced gastric mucosal injury in the rat

- Gastric mucosal clearance of 51Cr-labeled red blood cells (51Cr-RBC) was measured in rats during a 30-min control period, a 30-min ischemic period (hemorrhage to 27 mmHg arterial pressure), and a 60-min reperfusion period (reinfusion of shed blood). In untreated (control) rats, a dramatic rise in the leakage of 51Cr-labeled red blood cells into the gastric lumen was observed during the reperfusion period. Treatment with neutrophil antiserum attenuated 51Cr-labeled red blood cell flux into the gastric lumen. Using the radioactive microsphere technique, neutrophil-depleted animals were shown to have higher blood flows in the ischemic period than the untreated rats. Bleeding of untreated rats to a mean arterial pressure of 40 mmHg resulted in blood flows that were not different from those in antiserum-treated rats bled to 27 mmHg and leakage of 51Cr-labeled red blood cells similar to that measured in antiserum-treated rats. The results of this study indicate that neutrophils play an important role in hemorrhagic shock-induced gastric bleeding.
