Working principles are developed as guidelines for the selection and/or design of organometallic polymers for processing fiber precursors to metal oxide fibers. These principles form the basis for the selection of metal carboxylate preceramics as an optimal approach to processing yttrium barium cuprate (123) ceramic superconducting fibers. A variety of candidate yttrium, barium, calcium, strontium, bismuth, and copper metal carboxylates were synthesized. Solubility and empirical rheology tests were conducted to screen these compounds to choose spinnable precursor systems. Simple extrusion studies confirmed that THF solutions of mixtures of yttrium, barium, and copper isobutyrates with some quantity of barium 2-ethyl-hexanoates can be used to successfully form 60–70 μm diameter 123 precursor fibers.

Background Acinetobacter baumannii (AB), an opportunistic pathogen, could develop into serious infections with high mortality and financial burden. The debate surrounding the selection of effective antibiotic treatment necessitates studies to define the optimal approach. This study aims to compare the clinical outcomes of commonly used treatment regimens in hospitalized patients

Psychrotrophic and mesophilic lactic streptococci were isolated from commercial cultured buttermilk to determine their potential effect on the quality of this product. These isolates consisted primarily of Streptococcus lactis subsp. diacetylactis, with S. lactis, Streptococcus cremoris, and Leuconostoc spp. also being present. Psychrotrophic isolates of S. lactis subsp. diacetylactis were compared to mesophilic isolates in regard to their ability to grow and reduce diacetyl in acidified milk (pH 4.7) incubated at 7°C. There was no significant difference detected in the ability of the two groups to reduce diacetyl (P<.05). The mesophilic isolates grew more rapidly in acidified refrigerated milk than did the psychrotrophs, indicating that the psychrotrophic isolates were more acid sensitive. The psychrotrophic isolates exhibited generation times of 9 to 11 h when grown in skim milk (pH 6.7) at 7°C. Both psychrotrophic and mesophilic strains of S. lactis subsp. diacetylactis could rapidly reduce diacetyl in refrigerated acidified milk. The results of this study suggest that procedures for selection of starter cultures for buttermilk manufacture should be improved.

AbstractThe low temperature (ca. 300°C) deposition of antimony films by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) on glass substrates from tribenzylantimony, Bn3Sb, is described. The facile elimination of the benzyl ligands results in preferentially oriented antimony films with low carbon content. The pyrolysis, decomposition mechanism and precursor design strategies are discussed. In addition, the deposition of bismuth from tribenzylbismuth, Bn3Bi, is presented. The potential for alloy growth using these precursors is discussed. Resulting films were characterized by XRD, SEM, and AFM.
