  • The purpose of the present study is to investigate the electrophoretic patterns of ADH isozymes and activity at various developmental stages of Oregon-R and Kwangju strains of D. melanogaster. The ADH isozymes were seperated by agarose gel plate eletrophoresis and they were stained for ADH activity study. The optical density was measured by using densitometer and the total activity was determined by measuring the enzyme solution's absorbance of 340 nm by spectrophotometer. The results are as follows: 1. At egg stages of Oregon-R and Kwangju strains ADH 2, ADH 3, ADH 4 were observed in te zymograms, but all of ADH 1, ADH 2, ADH 3, ADH 4 and ADH 5 were detected in larval, pupal and imaginal stages. 2. The amount of ADH 1+ADH 2 (anion) was 20-40% and that of ADH 3+ADH 4+ADH 5 (cation) was 60-805. In the developmental stages other, than egg stages, ADH 3 of both strains showed the largest amount among all ADH isozymes, and especially ADH 4 of Kwangju strain showed less amount than that of Oregon-R strain. 3. The total activity of the ADH at the egg stage was found to be the lowest, at larval stage became to be higher and to be lower at pupal stage and then became to be the highest at the imaginal stage. It is noticeable that the activity of the ADH in Kwangju strain was higher than that in Oregon-R strain.

  • Background: Truck driving is a highly sedentary occupation that places workers at risk for chronic health conditions, such as obesity and high blood pressure. The primary purpose of this study was to objectively describe truck drivers' typical physical activity (PA) patterns. Methods: We used ~7-10-day baseline PA actigraphy data samples from drivers in the Safety & Health Involvement For Truckers (SHIFT) study (n = 394). Driver PA patterns (e.g., average number of ≥10 minute Freedson bouts per week, time in bouts, and common days/times for PA) were summarized with descriptive analyses. We also compared objective accelerometer data to self-reports. Results: Drivers' weekly PA averaged 14.4 minutes (SD = 37.0), and most PA occurred between 5-6 pm on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Drivers overestimated self-reported weekly exercise by over 60 min/week compared to accelerometer data. Conclusion: Our results suggest that objective PA assessment may be warranted over self-report when possible, and timing may be key in future PA intervention work with truck drivers.

  • We present one-color nonlinear wavepacket interferometry (WPI) signal calculations for a system of two electronic levels and one vibrational degree of freedom. We consider two cases, a displaced harmonic oscillator system, which can be treated analytically, and a model photodissociative system, whose WPI signal must be calculated by numerical wavepacket propagation. We show how signals obtained with different combinations of intrapulse-pair phase shifts can be combined to isolate the complex-valued overlap between a given onepulse target wavepacket and a variable three-pulse reference wavepacket. We demonstrate that with a range of inter- and intrapulse-pair delays the complex overlaps and variable reference states can be used to reconstruct the target wavepacket. We compare our results with previous methods for vibronic state reconstruction based on linear WPI and discuss further generalizations of our method.
