Higher desolvation temperatures give increased sensitivity. However, increasing the temperature above the range suggested reduces beam stability. Increasing the gas flow rate higher that the quoted values lead to unnecessary high nitrogen consumption. Avoid operating the desolvation heater for long periods of time without proper gas flow. To do so could damage the source.

nano-drug delivery in a heated micro-channel has been numerically solved to gain new physical insight and to determine suitable geometric and operational system puter model accuracy was verified via numerical tests and com-parisons with benchmark experimental data sets.The overall design goals of near-uniform nano-drug concentration at the microchannel exit plane and desired mixture fluid temperature were achieved with computer experiments considering different microchannel lengths,nanoparticle diameters,channel flow rates,wall heat flux areas,and nanofluid supply rates.Such micro-systems,featuring controlled transport processes for optimal nano-drug delivery,are impor-tant in laboratory-testing of predecessors of implantable smart devices as well as for analyzing pharma-ceuticals and performing biomedical precision tasks.Ó2008Elsevier Ltd.All rights reserved.1.IntroductionMicrofluidics is the study of transport processes in microchan-nels,i.e.,methods and devices for controlling and manipulating fluid flow and particle transport at the microscale.Microfluidic de-vices,consisting in general of reservoirs,channels,pumps,valves,mixers,actuators,filters and/or heat exchangers,are primary com-ponents of lab-on-a-chip and total analysis systems [1]or function as bio-MEMS for precise drug delivery by implanted or transder-mal rger versions may be used as micro-heat sinks in miniature electronic systems (see Kleinstreuer and Li,[2]).The basics of microfluidics are discussed in the books by Tabeling [3]and Nguyen and Wereley [4],while bio-MEMS fundamentals,technologies,and applications for drug delivery have been re-viewed by Tay [5]as well as in selected chapters by Saliterman [6]and Wang and Soper [7].Beebe et al.[8]summarized the phys-ics and applications of microfluidics in biology,discussing micro-device components as well as manufacturing methods,such as micromachining,soft lithography,embossing,in situ construction,injection molding,and laser ablation.As Beebe et al.[8]illustrated,the main component in any microfluidic device is the channel network.Bio-MEMS can be considered as having at least one system dimension in the submicron or micron range (100nm–200l m)and other dimensions of up to several millimeters [6].With the increasing awareness of microfluidic physics and the surface sci-ence of building materials,such as silicon,polymers,glass and ceramics,the traditional fabrication techniques previously im-ported from integrated circuit manufacturing to MEMS have been also applied to bio-MEMS.The central question in microfluidics modeling is the validity of the continuum assumption,and if so (as may be the case for standard water flow in microchannels with D h >0.1l m),which are the dominant forces?Important character-istics and phenomena in the microscale environment include lam-inar flow,entrance effects,surface roughness effects,diffusion,wall forces,surface tension,very high surface-area-to-volume ra-tio,and microfluidic resistance.For example,some experimental evidence indicates that the Reynolds number for transition from laminar to turbulent flow may be different in microchannels from that predicted by macrochannel-flow theory.Indeed,recent works analyzed by Koo and Kleinstreuer [9]showed that a lot of contro-versy exists between experimental reports on (thermal)microscale flows,explaining that surface roughness and entrance effects may cause early turbulence.In the 1990s most bio-MEMS studies were concentrated in aca-demia,while in recent years commercialization of such devices be-gan.Examples include an electronically activated drug delivery microchip (Shawgo et al.,[10]);a controlled delivery system via integration of silicon and electroactive polymer technologies;a MEMS-based DNA sequencer developed by Cepheid [11];and0017-9310/$-see front matter Ó2008Elsevier Ltd.All rights

der-mal/transdermal drug delivery (Ovsianikov et al.,[12]and Kimand Lee,[13]among others)as well as nanomedicine applications of nanogels or gold-coated nanoparticles (Labhasetwar and Leslie-Pelecky,[14]).Part of the advanced endeavors in developing inte-grated micro-or nano-drug delivery systems is the interest in eas-ily monitoring and controlling target-cell responses to pharmaceutical stimuli,to understand biological cell activities,or to facilitate drug development processes.While micro-devices allow precise drug delivery by both im-planted and transdermal techniques,conventional drug delivery is characterized by the ‘‘hill-and-valley”phenomenon.It implies that when a drug is dispensed,drug concentration in the blood will increase,peak and then drop as the drug is metabolized,where the cycle is repeated for each drug dose.In nano-drug delivery (ND)systems,controlled drug release occurs over an extended period of time.Hence,the desired drug concentration will remain within the therapeutic window as ually,an integrated ND sys-tem is composed of drug preparation,feeding,sensing (test),and feedback parts.The types and doses of drugs are selected in the drug preparation part,while the feeding system guides drugs and buffer fluids into the test part.Test cells are placed into the test section,where they react to drugs and resulting (electric)response signals are monitored via the feedback part.Of interest here is the optimal delivery of nanoparticles (drugs)in an aqueous solution in terms of predetermined uniform particle concentration and mixture temperature.Such a dilute suspension,called a nanofluid,is conveyed via microchannels to recipient liv-ing cells situated in a well (see Fig.1a ).Controlled dosages of nano-drugs allow for simultaneous testing of living cells and stim-uli responses.Those micro-systems,featuring controlled transport processes for optimal nano-drug delivery,are important in labora-tory-testing of predecessors of implantable smart devices which may offer closed-loop sensing,result interpretation,and automatic nano-drug dispensation.Other applications for this basic microflu-idic device include testing of pharmaceuticals and performing effi-cient biomedical analyses.2.TheoryIn the controlled multiple nano-drug-stream system (Fig.1a ),the plenum chamber functions as a reservoir of an aqueous nutri-ent-supply and/or purging fluid.The microchannels can alter the incoming fluid to the test section,i.e.,target-well with living cells,by adjusting the individual inlet pressure or resistance.Nano-drugs can be supplied by setting the supply pressure of the nano-drug solution higher than that of the fluid supply side,while purging fluid can go through the testing section by lowering or eliminating the drug supply pressure.An appropriate wall heat flux beneath the microchannels ensures that delivery of the drug-fluid mixture to the living cells occurs at an optimal temperature,i.e.,37°C.DueMultiple microchannels(Attached to wells with cells)Surface heatingPlenum chamber(Reservoir)Buffer fluid inletVariable nano-drug

and Mass Transfer 51(2008)5590–55975591to the temperature dependentfluid properties,i.e.,viscosity,den-sity,diffusivity and thermal conductivity,the heatflux was also as-sumed to have an influence on the drug concentration and velocity distribution.Selecting one representative microchannel,the cho-sen unit has a hydraulic diameter of40l m for the main channel and20l m for the drug inlet branch.The Reynolds number ratio of drug-inlet to main-channelflows is defined asv¼Re2=Re1ð1ÞThe associated Reynolds numbers areRe i¼ðuD hÞim ið2Þwith i=1indicating the purging or nutrient-supply channel and i=2denoting the nanofluid channel(see Fig.1b).The drug concentration distribution for different main-channel lengths and inlet Reynolds numbers was analyzed.The effects of the Reynolds number ratio,v,and thermal boundary condition, q wall,were also compared and analyzed.Both the purging/nutri-ent-supplyfluid and nano-drug solution were at inlet room tem-perature(T in=293K).2.1.Nanofluid property correlationsTo evaluate the impact of nanoparticles(i.e.,drugs)and wall heatflux on the velocityfield as well as temperature and concen-tration profiles,the nanofluid properties have to be identified.Typ-ically,for a very dilute suspension,the effective viscosity,density and specific heat capacity have the following forms(Xuan and Roetzel,[15]):l eff ¼l f1ð1ÀÞð3Þqeff¼uq pþð1ÀuÞq fð4Þðq c pÞeff¼uðq c pÞpþð1ÀuÞðq c pÞfð5ÞHere,q eff is the nanofluid density,l eff is the nanofluid viscosity,and (q c p)eff is the nanofluid specific heat capacity.The nanoparticle dif-fusivity follows the Stokes–Einstein equation:D¼j B Tpl pð6Þwhere j B is the Boltzmann constant,T is thefluid temperature,and d p is the nanoparticle diameter.Most challenging is the thermal conductivity of nanofluids,for which benchmark experimental data sets show that the thermal conductivity of a nanofluid has strong volume fraction as well as temperature dependences(Das et al.,[16];Li and Peterson,[17]). Some researchers introduced different effective thermal conduc-tivity theories which directly or indirectly considered temperature dependence,e.g.,Koo and Kleinstreuer[18],Prasher et al.[19],and Jang and Choi[20].In comparison studies,Kleinstreuer and Li[21] and Li and Kleinstreuer[22]analyzed the models of Jang and Choi [20]and Prasher et al.[19],and updated their KKL(Koo–Kle-instreuer–Li)model.The KKL model is based on Brownian-mo-tion-induced micro-mixing and achieved good agreements with various experimental data sets.Specifically,the KKL thermal con-ductivity model,k eff,takes into account the effects of particle size, particle volume fraction and temperature dependence as well as the type of nanoparticle and basefluid combinations in form of (Koo and Kleinstreuer,[9]):k eff¼k staticþk Brownianð7ÞThe static part is from Maxwell’s model and the dynamic part was developed based on kinetic theory together with Stokes’flow of mi-cro-scale convective heat transfer,i.e.,micro-mixing.Hence,k statick f¼1þ3k p;effk fÀ1uk p;effk fþ2Àk p;effk fÀ1uð8Þandk Brownian¼5Â104uq f c p;fffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffijbTqpd psg T;u;d p;q pð9Þwhere q is the density,c p,f isfluid thermal capacity,and u is the vol-ume fraction,while the subscripts f and p indicatefluid and particle, respectively.The g-function,determined semi-empirically,was introduced to encapsulate the thermo-hydrodynamic interactions among all nanoparticles and affected micro-scalefluid parcels.For Al2O3–water and CuO–water nanofluids,the nonlinear g-function generated r2values of96%and98%,respectively(Li,[23]).The KKL model was employed in the current study.erning equationsAssuming the continuum approach to be valid(i.e.,here D h P20l m)for transient3-D laminar incompressibleflow in a microchannel,the continuity,momentum,energy and species transfer equations have to be solved,considering temperature-dependentfluid properties(see Section2.1).Continuity equationrÁ½qðTÞ~u ¼0ð10ÞMomentum equationo uo tþð~uÁr~uÞ¼À1q r pþrÁðm r~uÞð11ÞEnergy equationq c p o Tþð~uÁrÞT!¼r2ðkTÞþl Uð12ÞwhereU¼o u io x jþo u jo x io uio x jð13ÞMass transfer equationo co tþ~uÁr c¼D r2cð14ÞHere,~u is the velocity vector,D is the nanoparticle diffusivity,and U is the viscous dissipation function.For nanofluidflow and purefluid flow,the corresponding physical properties will be chosen,i.e.,the thermal conductivities,k eff and k f,respectively.For the design analysis,uniform inlet velocity conditions and an ambient pressure condition for the outlet were applied.A5% volume fraction of d p=10and500nm nanoparticles in water was selected to enter the drug supply channel in the form of a rectangular pulse function.The cycle,shows as part of Fig.1b,is centered with basically a one-second pulse during the observation time t T=30s.It starts at dimensionless time t*=0.49,which is defined astüt=t T;06tÃ61ð15Þwhere t T=L max/u1is the pulse period,and t is the real time,whileL max=10mm being the maximum length used,and u1¼m1Re1D h1.A heatflux variable in magnitude and extent was applied along part of the bottom wall,starting at z=0.02mm and ending selectively at z=2.5,3,4or5mm(see Fig.1b).5592 C.Kleinstreuer et al./International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer51(2008)5590–55972.3.Numerical methodThe numerical solution of the Eulerian transport equations were carried out with a user-enhanced,unstructuredfinite-volume based program,i.e.,CFX11from Ansys,Inc.(Canonsburg,PA). The mesh size of the computational domain used in this study was refined until acceptable levels of grid independence of the solutions were achieved.Furthermore,both the maximum mass and momentum residuals were less than10À4.3.Results3.1.Model validationsClassical friction factor correlations as well as k eff-comparisons are discussed.Specifically,for laminar fully-developedflow of a purefluid,the Poiseuille number is defined asPo¼fRe¼D pÁD2h2l f uLð16Þwhere Po=16for circular conduits.3.1.1.Friction factorFor rectangular microchannels,the Poiseuille number is a func-tion of aspect ratio(a=channel width/channel height).It can be determined using Eq.(17)from Shah and London[24].Po¼241À1:3553aþ1:9467a2À1:7012a3Àþ0:9564a4À0:2537a5Áð17Þwhere for square ducts,Po=14.23.Fig.2provides a comparison of friction factors at different Reynolds number.Clearly,the computed friction factor is in very good agreement with the theoretical re-sults.With an increase in inlet velocity,the temperature range and average temperature in thefluid decreases,i.e.,from304K to 296K,and thefluid kinematic viscosity increases.Thus,for thesame velocity,the Reynolds number,Re1¼ðuD h mÞ1is different for water with temperature-dependent properties when compared to constant properties.The reason is that the bottom heatflux influ-ences the temperature distribution and,via the changingfluid prop-erties,also the velocityfield,especially where the temperature difference is large.The inset plot in Fig.2indicates the friction fac-tor differences between water with temperature-dependent prop-erties and constant properties for the same velocity.Specifically,e¼f c:pÀf v:pÀÁf c:pð18Þwhere f c.p is the friction factor for water with constant properties, f v.p is the friction factor for water with variable properties,i.e.,tem-perature dependent.In the lower velocity range,the higherfluid temperature induced a lower kinematic viscosity for the tempera-ture-dependentfluid which introduced a higher Reynolds number and hence a smaller friction factor.As the velocity increases,the friction factor increases because of the decrease in thefluid’s aver-age temperature.Fig.3a and b show the axial velocity distribution at the channel outlet for water with temperature-dependent and constant properties,respectively.As Fig.3a indicates,the tempera-ture generated a decrease in viscosity near the bottom surface and as a result lowers the location of the maximum velocity,while for water with constant properties the maximum velocity always ap-pears at the centerline(see Fig.3b).3.1.2.Pressure gradientLi and Kleinstreuer[22]analyzed the influence of nanoparticle volume fraction on the pressure gradient for fully-developedflow. Selecting nanofluids with4%volume fractions of28.6nm CuO–water mixtures,the pressure gradient increased an average13% for a constantflow rate,which matched measured data.Fig.4de-picts the pressure gradients at different mean velocities when employing a5%gold-particle-and-water mixture with differentFig.3.Velocity distribution in channel outlet(a)water with temperature dependent properties and(b)water with constant physical properties.C.Kleinstreuer et al./International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer51(2008)5590–55975593nanoparticle sizes,i.e.,10and500nm(see Labhasetwar&Leslie-Pelecky,[14]).Clearly,nanoparticle size does not influence the pressure gradient when the same volume fraction is employed (see Eqs.(3)–(5)).The pressure gradient increases by13–18%when employing the5%nanofluids,confirming the results of Li and Kle-instreuer[22].3.1.3.Enhanced thermal conductivityIn Fig.5,the KKL model is compared with experimental data for CuO–water nanofluid at different temperatures(21°C,36°C,51°C) and volume fractions(1–4%).The KKL model compares well with the experimental observations of Das et al.[16].Because of the lack of quantitative information concerning therapeutic nanoparticles, other than their mean diameters,the practical range for k eff/k f was assumed to be1.0–2.5and the g-function was taken to be lin-early dependent on temperature(20–70°C),generating a value range for g of0.3Â10À3to7Â10À3.3.2.Concentration distributions of drug nano-particlesThe distributions of nanoparticle concentrations and tempera-tures at the main microchannel outlets with variable channel lengths were compared for different particle sizes and boundary conditions,i.e.,different Reynolds numbers Re1and Re2and for dif-ferent Reynolds numbers ratios v as well as different heating modes q w.The desired nano-drug particle uniformity at z=L is de-fined asU c¼A v=A gÂ100%ð19Þwhere A v is the valid area,i.e.,the area where the drug particle con-centration is equal or larger than90%of local maximum concentra-tion,and A g is the actual geometric channel-exit area.Fig.6 compares the dimensionless drug concentration distributions (d p=10nm)at different cross sections in the microchannel for dif-ferent paring the U c(t)graphs for the outlet cross section at z=10mm,it is evident that the added heat measurably increases nanoparticle diffusion D¼j B T3pl d pand hence the drug distribution two-fold,i.e.,via the mixture temperature and the reducedfluid vis-cosity.At station z=3mm,the nanoparticles are still concentrated in a small part of the channel cross section and hence the drug uni-formity U c is very low.Clearly,nanoparticle(i.e.,drug)mixing develops as the two streams merge,and for z=10mm the desired near-uniform concentration profile is achieved.There,the differ-ence is less than10%between the maximum value and the mini-mum value in the particular cross section.Figs.7a–d and8a–d depict the velocity and dimensionless nano-drug concentration distributions along the center line (À2Â10À56y62Â10À5)at threeflow-developing phases (z=0.5mm,5mm and10mm)at different time levels for the case of v=1.69and L=10mm.The dimensionless nano-drug concen-tration is defined as:cüc=c0ð20Þ5594 C.Kleinstreuer et al./International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer51(2008)5590–5597here c is the local drug concentration,and c0is the drug concentra-tion at the drug-channel inlet,which is assumed to be unity.The intensity of drug supply measurably influences the velocity distribution(Fig.7).At t*=0.51,in the middle of nanofluid injec-tion,the main-channel velocity is at a maximum.The velocity down stream of z>0.5mm is somewhat elevated because of the nano-drug influence(see Fig.8a).For the same reason,at t*=0.68and t*=0.85,the velocity distribution exhibits the lowest values at z=5mm and z=10mm,respectively(Fig.7b and c).At t*=1.0,most of the nano-drug particles supplied have left the delivery microchannel and hence the velocity distributions at the three axial stations(i.e.,z=0.5,5,and10mm)exhibit no differ-ences any more(Fig.7d).At the middle of the one-second nanofluid cycle(i.e.,t*=0.51), the resulting nano-drug pulse is registered near the inlet at z=0.5mm but is not felt further downstream(Fig.8).The nanoparticles diffuse and they are conveyed through the channel leading to highly nonlinear‘‘time-and space-”dependent concen-tration profiles(Fig.8a–d).For example,at t*=0.85the nano-drug distribution is almost uniform across the channel exit plane(see Fig.8c).Fig.9compares the uniformity of drug-particle concentration at different Re1numbers and microchannel lengths.With the de-crease of Re1values from0.04to0.004and with an increase of the channel length,which implies much larger diffusion times, the uniformity of drug-particle distribution improves.As expected, at small Reynolds numbers,drug uniformity can be much more rapidly achieved.Fig.10depicts the drug uniformity at channel outlet z=10mm for drugs with a particle diameter of500nm at different Reynolds numbers.It shows that the decrease of Re1can improve drug parison of Figs.10and6shows that smaller drug-par-ticles may greatly benefit the drug concentration uniformity.Figs.11and12summarize the percentage changes in minimum microchannel-length in order to achieve near-uniform exit concen-tration for different Reynolds number ratios and different wall-heat-flux extents,respectively.The‘‘minimum uniformity-length”is defined as the required main-channel length where the drug-particle concentration in the exit area is equal or larger than90% of the local maximum concentration.Selecting v=1.26as the ref-erence ratio,the dimensionless minimum uniformity length change is compared for different Reynolds number ratios in Fig.11,an increase of v measurably decreases the minimum uni-formity length.As Fig.12shows,a decrease of the heated area also decreases the minimum uniformity length.Because thefluid tem-perature increase isfixed(from room temperature293K to bodyC.Kleinstreuer et al./International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer51(2008)5590–559755955596 C.Kleinstreuer et al./International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer51(2008)5590–5597temperature 310K),the effect on the drug diffusivity is not prom-inent by just decreasing the heated area.4.ConclusionsIn the present study a nano-drug-supply system,i.e.,a bio-MEMS,was introduced.Of main interest were the conditions for achieving uniform concentrations at the microchannel exit of the supplied nano-drugs.A heat flux which depends on the levels of nano-fluid and purging fluid velocity was added to en-sure that drug delivery to the living cells occurs at an optimal temperature,i.e.,37°C.The added wall heat flux had also a po-sitive influence on drug-concentration uniformity.Overall,thenano-drug concentration uniformity is influenced by channel length,particle diameter and the Reynolds number of both the nanofluid supply and main microchannels.In light of the convec-tion–diffusion controlled transport mechanisms,longer channels,smaller particle diameters as well as lower Reynolds numbers are desirable for best,i.e.,uniform drug delivery.Furthermore,the Reynolds number ratio and the extent of heated area also measurably influence the minimum microchannel length re-quired for achieving the desired drug-concentration uniformity.Future work will focus on the effects of angled drug-delivery channel and static mixer in the main channel.AcknowledgementThe

Underlying factors contributing to IBS pathogenesis include visceral hypersen-sitivity, altered gastrointestinal motility, chronic infl amma-tion, and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).3,4 Th ese factors are not mutually exclusive, and specifi c gastro-intestinal symptoms may vary among patients. For instance, SIBO may account for the increased gas production that occurs in many patients with IBS, and methane production is strongly associated with constipation-predominant IBS.4 Many potential mechanisms have been proposed to explain the pathophysiologic symptoms of IBS, including genetic predisposition; food intolerance; social, environ-mental, or behavioral factors; and previous enteric infec-tion.3 Th e complex nature of IBS pathology makes optimal treatment challenging. T reatment options for IBS include bulking agents, 5-hydroxytryptamine–modifying agents, antidepressants, antispasmodics, antiinfl ammatory agents, laxatives, antidiarrheals, antibiotics, and probiotics. Notably, antibiotics have a favorable effi cacy profi le in the treatment of individuals with SIBO.5-9,11Th e cases included in this supplement provide examples of the pathogenic role of bacteria in IBS and suggest that therapeutic approaches that aff ect gut bacteria and the respective host responses to these pathogens might allevi-ate symptoms in patients with functional gastrointestinal symptoms. Th is notion is supported by observations from several open-label investigations as well as randomized, double-blind, controlled studies that have characterized the therapeutic benefi t of antibiotics in the treatment of func-tional gastrointestinal symptoms in patients with or without a diagnosis of IBS.5-12Th e cases described in this supplement also provide real-world examples of antibiotic treatment of functional gastrointestinal symptoms in clinical practice. Although no conclusions about the effi cacy of antibiotics for functional gastrointestinal symptoms can be drawn on the basis of these cases alone, the present observations illustrate the potential applications of antibiotics for the treatment of functional gastrointestinal disorders and suggest areas for further investigation.References1.

A member of Mensa, he is Principal Investigator forMaryland Clinical Trials and is actively engaged in clinical trials involving both functional and infl ammatory bowel disorders. Charles Cattano, MDA 50-year-old white woman presented with a 20-year his-tory of functional gastrointestinal symptoms, manifesting as recurrent abdominal cramps, excessive gas, and stool urgency without hematochezia or nocturnal stooling. Th e patient complained of severe diarrhea and moderate bloating, gas, and abdominal pain. Fatty meals exacerbated symptoms, and abdominal pain and bloating improved following bowel movements. A previous evaluation in 2004 resulted in a diagnosis of Rome II–positive, diarrhea-predominant IBS. Additionally, in August 2005, the patient’s symptoms fl ared after an 8-day episode of acute viral gastroenteritis. Her medi-cal history included a longstanding history of anxiety, but no history of diabetes, thyroid disease, or neurologic issues. Her only surgery was hysterectomy for fi broids, preceded by two uncomplicated childbirths. She denied tobacco use but admitted prior marijuana smoking. She has consumed alcohol socially. Her family history was notable for the pres-ence of “colitis” in her mother and sister, who had similar gastrointestinal symptoms.Current medications included dicyclomine 10 mg daily, which was initiated in June 2004. Previously the patient had been taking alprazolam as needed for restlessness but elected to discontinue use in order to “avoid addiction.” Her response to dicyclomine was rated as “50% better.” Th e patient also received a trial regimen of chlordiazepoxide 5 mg plus clidinium 2.5 mg twice daily (bid) with a reported 60% response, but discontinued the medication after 2 weeks due to oversedation. Th us, the patient was referred for gastroen-terology consultation for further evaluation and treatment.On physical examination, the patient weighed 142 lbs at a height of 5' 4". Her skin was nonicteric and lungs clear to posterior and anterior auscultation bilaterally. Heart sounds revealed S1S2 with a mitral click but no murmur. Her abdomen was scaphoid with mild tenderness in the right and left lower quadrants, without rebound. Bowel sounds were active in all four quadrants. Rectal examination revealed guaiac-negative brown stool and no digital tender-ness. Review of colonoscopic fi ndings from August 2004 indicated diff use spasm, but random biopsy was negative for infl ammation. Results of complete blood count and blood chemistry tests provided by her referring primary care physi-cian were normal, as was the baseline level of serum thyreo-tropic hormone. Stool analysis proved negative for Giardia, enteric pathogens, and leukocytes. No breath test for bacte-rial overgrowth was available within our community.On the basis of her post-infectious symptoms, a diagnosis of SIBO was suspected. She received ciprofl oxa-cin 500 mg bid for 10 days. At a follow-up visit in August 2005, 3 weeks after discontinuing ciprofl oxacin treatment, her gastrointestinal symptoms were moderately improved and she reported no adverse eff ects related to ciprofl oxa-cin treatment.Th e patient was lost to follow-up thereafter, due to a lack of interest in maintenance therapy. She telephoned again 6 months later to report recurrence of diarrhea without bleeding and requested a refi ll of her ciprofl oxacin prescrip-tion. Based on available data, the patient was off ered a 14-day trial regimen of rifaximin 400 mg three times daily, with the expectation of consolidating symptom improve-ment. Her prior history of improvement with ciprofl oxacin provided support for a presumption of SIBO; however, formal breath testing was deferred. Tegaserod was initiated concomitantly with low-dose rifaximin 200 mg bid. Within 7 days on the combined regimen of tegaserod and rifaximin, the patient reported signifi cant reduction in diarrhea (from 7 to 2 stools daily), as well as reductions in fecal urgency and abdominal cramping.DiscussionTh e merits of rifaximin treatment in IBS patients are under investigation, and preliminary data discussed else-where herein suggest benefi t. Th e empiric use rifaximin in patients with SIBO symptoms, however, bears consid-eration, even without formal SIBO documentation. As noted in the case above, breath testing is not always readily ordered, and where available the cost of analysis is often substantial. Th erefore, empiric rifaximin treatment in IBS patients may be justifi ed, particularly because, unlike with systemic antibiotics, the GI selectivity of rifaximin permits few side eff ects and little expectation of signifi cant bacterial resistance.1Reference1.

Her medical history included migraine headaches and cholecystectomy. Medica-tions included sumatriptan as needed. Th e patient denied smoking, drinks alcohol socially, denied extraordinary stress, and had no known history of gastroenteritis and no known drug allergies.Functional gastrointestinal symptoms were refractory to treatment with simethicone (2-month course), alpha-galactosidase (Beano), and dietary modifi cations, which included high-fi ber foods and avoidance of lactose-con-taining products, raw vegetables, and beans. Th e patient reported worsening of gas and bloating. Another IBS drug was prescribed, which resulted in severe diarrhea. Upon presentation to the gastroenterologist, the patient was tak-ing no prescription medications.Upon physical examination, the patient appeared in no acute distress. Abdominal examination revealed mild dis-tention, a right upper quadrant surgical scar, positive bowel signs, mild diff use tenderness, no rebound, and no guard-ing. Based on her symptoms of very severe bloating and gas, abdominal pain, and constipation, she was diagnosed with constipation-predominant IBS. Basic blood work consist-ing of metabolic panel and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) was negative. A glucose breath test was negative for SIBO, based on hydrogen measures only. Despite her negative breath test but because of her symptom profi le, the patient was administered rifaximin 400 mg three times daily for 10 days.T wo weeks later, the patient reported improvement in bloating and gas. However, she still complained of slight constipation. T egaserod 2 mg twice daily was prescribed with resolution of constipation. DiscussionIrritable bowel syndrome is commonly associated with symptoms of gas and bloating. Investigators have found that small bowel gas is found in excess in patients with IBS compared to controls.1Additionally, Pimentel and colleagues2found that treatment with oral antibiotics after a positive lactulose breath test was associated with improvement in IBS symptoms as well as normalization of breath test results. Interestingly, the hydrogen breath test using glucose in this patient was negative, yet the patient’s symptoms improved with empiric rifaximin treatment. Th is may have been due to the elimination of methane-producing intestinal bacteria that were not detected during the hydrogen breath test. In a study measuring methane production during lactulose breath testing, a 100% asso-ciation was found between constipation-predominant IBS and a methane-positive breath test.3 Breath testing may be falsely negative in patients with primarily methanogenic bacteria causing symptoms of IBS. Th erefore, we must consider methane to be an important intestinal gas in the production of gastrointestinal symptoms. References1. Koide A, Yamaguchi T, Odaka T, et al.

His clinical interests include thetreatment of functional bowel and acid refl ux disorders.Venkat Mohan, MDA 47-year-old white woman presented in December 2004 with a 10-year history of functional gastrointestinal symp-toms, including abdominal discomfort, loose stools, and a 2-year worsening of symptoms manifesting as excessive fl atulence, bloating, and gas, without constipation or diar-rhea. Milk, cheese, and stress exacerbated her symptoms. Th e patient’s medical history indicated abdominal cramps and acid refl ux, with no known history of gastroenteritis, neurologic disease, diabetes, or thyroid disease. Review of symptoms was unremarkable, with no weight loss, blood in the stool, or nausea. Her surgical history included appen-dectomy and hysterectomy. Her psychiatric history was noted for complaints of anxiety. In regard to related familial history, her father had colon cancer and her mother had diverticulosis. Her alcohol intake was reported as a once-weekly glass of wine. She was a nonsmoker.Gastrointestinal symptoms were refractory to dietary changes, which included replacement of dairy intake with soy products; consumption of small, low-fat meals; and avoidance of carbonated beverages, coff ee, and artifi cial sweeteners. Over-the-counter treatment with simethicone or alpha-galactosidase supplements provided only a mini-mal response. No specifi c medications had been prescribed for treatment of her functional gastrointestinal symptoms, and the patient was not receiving medications for other disorders. Because of persistent symptoms, the patient was referred for gastroenterology consultation.On physical examination, the patient could be char-acterized as a pleasant, well-nourished female weighing 157 lbs at 5' 6". Cardiovascular, lung, and abdominal examinations were unremarkable. Results of routine screening laboratory tests for complete blood count, chemistry profi le, TSH, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and anti-endomysial antibody were normal. Stool test for fecal fat was normal. Breath tests were not performed. Results of a colonoscopy performed in November 2004 were negative. Based on symptom-based clinical data, the patient was diagnosed with functional bowel disorder and SIBO.Th e patient received rifaximin 400 mg twice daily (bid) for 10 days in combination with the probiotic Flora-Q once daily for 2 weeks and tegaserod 6 mg nightly for 2 months. She had a mild increase in loose bowel movements in the initial days of therapy due to the eff ect of tegaserod, which ultimately normalized. At a follow-up visit 4 weeks after initiation of rifaximin adjunct therapy, the patient reported improved symptoms of bloating, gas, and abdominal dis-comfort, as well as normal stool consistency. At a routine follow-up offi ce visit in May 2005, the patient reported that symptoms were greatly improved. No side eff ects attributed to the treatment regimen were reported.No maintenance treatment was prescribed. Th e patient experienced a relapse in August 2005 and received rifaximin 400 mg bid for 2 weeks. Her symptoms of bloating, gas, and abdominal pain markedly improved. She was placed on a course of tegaserod 6 mg nightly for 2 months and currently remains symptom-free.DiscussionEmerging evidence supports the hypothesis that SIBO con-tributes to the pathogenesis of IBS.1 Many individuals with IBS also have SIBO, as indicated by reports of abnormal breath test results in up to 84% of individuals with IBS.2,3 Furthermore, multiple randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies have demonstrated that patients who experienced normalization of breath test results following antibiotic treatment experience greater improvement of functional bowel symptoms.2-5 Specifi cally, the nonsystemic antibiotic rifaximin has been shown to safely and eff ectively eliminate bacterial overgrowth and improve global symp-toms of IBS.5,6Abnormal motility of the phase III “housekeeper” waves of the migrating motor complex in the small intestine may contribute to the development of SIBO in individuals with IBS.7 Th e recurrence of symptoms in this patient may be related to a lack of stimulation of this housekeeper wave. Th e administration of promotility agents such as tegaserodGastroenterology & Hepatology Volume 3, Issue 1, Supplement 1 January 20077C A S E S T UD IE Smay help stimulate the phase III complex and prevent recurrence of SIBO. An additional agent administered to promote normal intestinal motility is oral erythromycin 50 mg daily.References1. Lin HC.

Symptoms were exacerbated by certain carbohydrates and alleviated only by not eating. A medi-cal consultation in 1998 resulted in a diagnosis of Rome II–positive, alternating-form IBS. Th e patient’s medical history was notable for recurrent episodes of diverticulitis, appendectomy, cholecystectomy, total abdominal hysterec-tomy, and a family history of colorectal cancer. Th e patient had no known history of gastroenteritis, diabetes, thyroid disease, neurologic disorder, or psychiatric problems, and reported no signifi cant weight loss, no tobacco use, and only occasional consumption of alcohol. Symptoms were refractory to previous interventions, including oral dicyclo-mine 20 mg before meals, over-the-counter laxatives, and a high-fi ber diet. Th e patient was referred to a gastroenterolo-gist for recurrent diverticulitis and alternating symptoms of constipation and diarrhea.On physical examination, the patient’s temperature was normal and her pulse rate was 75 bpm with a blood pressure of 120/75 mm Hg. Her height measured 5' 3" and weight 125 lbs. Abdominal examination revealed no hepatosplenomegaly, no abnormal mass, and slight tender-ness in the lower quadrants. Results of all stool studies were negative, with no detection of blood. Results of thyroid studies, complete blood count and C-reactive protein lev-els, and liver profi le studies were normal. A 3-hour lactulose breath test revealed an abnormal hydrogen peak. Results of a colonoscopy performed in August 2004 revealed diver-ticulosis. A CT scan also showed evidence of diverticulosis with muscular hypertrophy.Based on clinical symptoms, the patient was adminis-tered oral rifaximin 400 mg twice daily for 10 days. A lactu-lose breath test administered after initiation of rifaximin treatment was normal. Following completion of rifaximin treatment, probiotic therapy and tegaserod 2 mg daily were administered as maintenance therapy. At her 3-month fol-low-up evaluation, the patient had not experienced symp-tom recurrence.DiscussionIrritable bowel syndrome is a very common chronic medi-cal condition with no known cause. Dr. Douglas Drossman fi rst presented the biopsychosocial model of IBS,1which has gained much acceptance as a pathophysiologic cause, as have the application of symptom-based diagnostic criteria originally put forth by Manning and colleagues2 and further applied in the Rome diagnostic criteria. Research currently focuses on altered motility, neuroenteric signaling, visceral hypersensitivity, and brain-gut dysfunction.Irritable bowel syndrome is a complex gastrointestinal disorder characterized by a heterogeneous pathophysiology.A primary focus of recent research is the role of enteric bacteria in IBS pathogenesis, as demonstrated by the correlation between postinfectious IBS and a previous episode of bacterial gastroenteritis (eg, travelers’ diarrhea). Pimentel and colleagues have utilized the lactulose breath test to identify a subset of IBS patients with SIBO.3 Th eir therapeutic method began with neomycin and has evolved into a rifaximin-based primary treatment to normalize the abnormal breath test and to achieve global improvement of IBS symptoms, including bloating, abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, and constipation.4References1.

Both were selected for pre-clinical evaluation as potential new generation anti-HIV drugs.4Aspects of the studies involved LC-MS analysis and the stable isotope-labeled forms of DPH153893and DPH140662were needed as internal standards.We wanted to make the penta-deuterated DPH153893and DPH 140662molecules in which the[2H5]is situated at the core as the[phenyl ring-2H5]-HEA.We preferred to make the penta-deuterated analog based on the calculation that the molecular weight is sufficiently increased,such that overlap with other ions due to isotopic mass distribution is avoided.*Correspondence to:I.V.Ekhato,Bristol-Myers Squibb Company,Pharmaceutical Research Institute, 5Research Parkway,Wallingford,CT06492,USA.E-mail:ihoezo.ekhato@Copyright#2004John Wiley&Sons,Ltd.Received15July2003Since both compounds possess the HEA core structure,we planned to prepare DPH153893and DPH140662from a common labeled precursor bearing the elements of the[phenyl ring-2H5]-HEA moiety.We believe that the phenyl group of the HEA sub-unit is metabolically stable,since metabolites have not been reported.5Similarly,these metabolites are absent from our internal study6of DPH153893or DPH140662.As a result,we were encouraged to explore the current synthesis with the prospect that a protease inhibitor containing the[phenyl ring-2H5]-HEA moiety might,in addition to our initial reason for synthesis,be suitable for in vivo investigation.By routine reactions we made the required[2H5]-intermediate from[2H5]-bromobenzene and transformed this compound into[2H5]-DPH153893and[2H5]-DPH 140662.Results and discussionIn the synthetic literature on anti-HIV protease inhibitors,unlabeled(1S,2S)-(1-oxiranyl-2-[2H5]phenylethyl)-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester11is extensively used as an intermediate3,7for synthesis of aspartyl protease inhibitors.We considered11to be an attractive key intermediate from which to make[2H5]-protease pound11,Figure1,has the epoxide functionality from which to build[2H5]-DPH153893and[2H5]-DPH140662.In addition,11 provides the[phenyl ring-2H5]-HEA isostere core of both inhibitors.Unlike previous work,7the present approach does not draw on any chiral pools of reagents,such as optically pure amino acids or derivatives,to construct11. Therefore,constructing the[2H5]-labeled carbon skeleton from[2H5]-bromo-benzene1with the desired1S,2S-configuration in11was a challenging task. To address this point,we implemented a facially selective syn-aldol condensation reaction with S-4-benzyl-(3-[2H5]phenylpropionyl)-oxazolidin-2-one5.[2H5]-Bromobenzene was used to prepare compound5,and theSYNTHESIS OF LABELED HIV-PROTEASE INHIBITORS823 sequence of routine reactions that was employed is shown in Scheme1.Thus, following a lithium-halogen exchange reaction with[2H5]-bromobenzene1, DMF was added and acid workup provided the aldehyde,2.A Wittig-type homologation protocol8with compound2furnished3-[2H5]phenylacrylic acid ethyl ester,3.The carboxylic acid made by the hydrolysis of3was activated as the mixed pivaloyl anhydride,and reacted with(S)-(-)-4-benzyl-N-lithio-2-oxazolidinone,according to a literature procedure,9to

required carbon skeleton and simultaneously achieve the desired(S,S)-configuration,compound5was condensed with(benzyloxy) acetaldehyde,10as shown in Scheme2.The combination of dibutylboron triflate and diisopropylethylamine reagent resulted in the highly diastereofa-cially selective syn-aldol condensation reaction yielding6.In the manner described in the literature,11lithium peroxide was used to cleave the amide bond in compound6to obtain(2S,3S)-[(2-[2H5]benzyl-4-(benzyloxy)-3-hydroxybutyric acid,7,in84%pound7was refluxed in a solution of toluene containing diphenylphosphoryl azide and triethylamine to produce 8,an oxazolidinone.Formation of compound8is explained by the intra-molecular cyclization reaction of the intermediate isocyanate with the participation of the neighboring hydroxy group,as described in the literature.10The deprotection of8and the formation of(1S,2S)-1-[N-tert-butyloxycarbonyl)amino]-1-[25H5]benzyl-3-(benzyloxy)propan-2-ol,9,wasachieved in a one-pot pound5was subsequently hydrogenated under Pd/C catalysis to yield10(see Scheme2).The diol grouping in10was converted to the epoxide ring by a modified literature protocol12to give11(Scheme3).Specifically,compound10was treated with1-(bromocarbonyl)-1-methylethyl acetate in ethanol-free chloro-form at08C,converting it to an intermediate bromohydrin.The bromohydrin was cyclized by treatment with a solution of sodium methoxide in THF to provide(1S,2S)-(1-oxiranyl-2-[2H5]phenyl-ethyl)-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester,11,in73%yield.From intermediate11we proceeded to make[2H5]-DPH153893and[2H5]-DPH140662.At the second step in the reaction sequence isobutylamine wasreacted with11in hot isopropyl alcohol to pound12is the lastintermediate common to both synthetic targets,i.e.the reaction step after 12is the point of divergence of the reaction sequences to DPH 140662and DPH 153893.In order to make [2H 5]-DPH 140662,compound 12was treated with 4-nitro-benzenesulfonyl chloride in the presence of potassium carbonate as acid scavenger.After removal of the Boc group,13was obtained as the methanesulfonic acid salt in 80%overall yield over the two steps.By a standard coupling method with EDC.HCl,4-methylmorpholine and HOBt 13in DMF,compound 13and Boc-l -tert -leucine formed the Boc protected 14.We found that the stepwise sequence of coupling Boc-l -tert -leucine to make the Boc protected 14,the removal of Boc to yield 14and the coupling reaction of compound 14with IS066(IS066was generously supplied bythe 11into 14via compound

15,as shown in Scheme 4,was the best sequence for making [2H 5]-DPH 140662.An alternative single coupling reaction to DPH 140662from 13was complicated by intra-molecular cyclization of the dipeptide reagent under our reaction conditions.Chromatographic purifica-tion was required to obtain 15,and then only in poor yield.The single coupling approach was therefore abandoned.A standard coupling protocol in DMF containing EDC.HCl,HOBt and 4-methylmorpholine as acid scavenger converted 14to compound 15.After Pd/C catalyzed hydrogenation of 15to the 4-aminobenzenesulfonamide,the Boc group was removed with TFA-Et 3SiH and the reaction mixture was neutralized with NaHCO 3to provide [2H 5]-DPH 140662in 61%yield.By substituting 3-nitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride for 4-nitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride in Scheme 3,and following a sequence of reactions analogous to Schemes 3and 4,we accomplished the synthesis of [2H 5]-DPH 153893in comparable yield.ConclusionTwo HIV protease inhibitors were specifically labeled with [2H 5]at the HEA sub-unit by transforming [2H 5]-bromobenzene into a common intermediate for these agents.The intermediate was made using established reactionsthat 14into [2H 5]-DPH 140662I.V.EKHATO ET AL.826included an asymmetric reaction step.The intermediate was used to create the[phenyl ring-2H 5]labeled HEA core structure of DPH 140662and DPH 153893.Very high deuterium incorporation was achieved by the sequence we have described and the synthetic approach may be applicable,with some modifications,to other HIV-protease inhibitors.ExperimentalAll reactions

Determination of the Surface Fractal Dimension for Porous Media by Capillary Condensation

Determination of the Surface Fractal Dimension for Porous Media by Capillary Condensation

Determination of the Surface Fractal Dimension for Porous Media by Capillary CondensationFumin Wang and Shaofen Li*Department of Chemical Engineering,Tianjin University,Tianjin300072,People’s Republic of ChinaWe describe several methods of evaluating the surface fractal dimension of porous media.Theseinclude the thermodynamic method and the fractal version of Frenkel-Halsey-Hill theory.Neither method yields accurate estimates of the fractal dimensions of porous solids under thewhole range of experimental scales.We propose a modified thermodynamic method that isrelatively simple but is significantly more accurate than Neimark’s relation from the adsorptionexperiments.Then we use these methods to estimate the surface fractal dimension of severalkinds of porous media.After a concrete analysis of the properties of topology and mercuryporosimetry,N2adsorption,and N2desorption processes for porous media,we conclude that thereal surface fractal dimension should be determined by D abs(from the adsorption isotherm),D des(from the desorption isotherm),and D m(from the mercury porosimetry)jointly as D real)D abs+(D m-D des).IntroductionFractal geometry has been widely used in many areas of modern science.The key quantity in fractal geometry is the fractal dimension D,which is an operative measure of the surface and structural irregularities of a given solid.The fractal dimension should be deter-mined first before we can use the concept and knowledge of fractal geometry to characterize the structure of a given solid.The experimental methods used for the determination of the surface fractal dimension of porous solids have been reviewed by Avnir et al.(1992).The most common techniques are the adsorption and mercury porosimetry methods.In addition,electron microscopy image analy-sis and scattering methods(light,X-rays,neutrons)have also been used to demonstrate surface roughness for porous materials(Martin et al.,1986;Aubert et al., 1986;Freltoft et al.,1986).In this paper we restrict our attention to calculating the surface fractal dimen-sion from adsorption measurements because they are the most commonly used methods to determine the fractal dimension D of solid materials.Perhaps one of the oldest methods of evaluating the surface fractal dimension is that based on the depen-dence of monolayer capacity on the adsorbate size, which was developed by Pfeifer and Avnir(1983). Although this method is simple,the fractal dimensions determined by this method are not always consistent, especially when the orientations of adsorbate molecules on the surface are different.Also,this procedure has some disadvantages related to evaluation of the mono-layer capacity and selection of suitable adsorbates in order to avoid the effects associated with adsorbate-adsorbate interactions(Jaroniec,1995).Moreover,in this method,one needs to evaluate the monolayer capacities of several adsorbates of different molecular sizes,which makes the experiment rather time-consum-ing.Because the molecules adsorbed play the role of the gauges,the range of scales available in this method is limited by the molecular sizes.These problems become particularly important for adsorption on some microporous solids that possess a high degree of surface irregularity(Jaroniec and Madey,1988).Pfeifer et al.(1991)developed an adsorption-based method for surface roughness determination in1991. The principle is to measure the variation in surface area of the material coated with a series of presorbed films. In this method,they assume that every point of the film surface has the same shortest distance z to the solid,so the film area S(z)is related to the film volume V(z)by When the surface of the solid is fractal,with fractal dimension D,V(z)is proportional to z3-D and,therefore, S(z)is proportional to z2-D,so one obtainsFrom eq2,one can get the fractal dimension by measuring the surface area of the adsorbed film with varied film thicknesses of z.However,the equidistance assumption,on which this method is based,is open to doubt.The surface tension wants to make the film-vapor interface as flat as possible,so as to minimize the surface area of the interface.One cannot ignore the effect of the surface tension,especially when the film thickness is large(Pfeifer and Cole,1990).From the simulation results of this method,we can see that the deviations are very large and the corresponding cor-relation coefficient is very small(Pfeifer et al.,1991). Another popular method for evaluating D is that given by the Frenkel-Halsey-Hill(FHH)equation, which in logarithmic form can be expressed as follows (Pfeifer and Cole,1990):where N is the amount adsorbed at the relative pressure P/P0and absolute temperature T andµis the so-called adsorption potential defined asUsing eq3,one can determine D from physical adsorp-tion measurements on the fractal surface.On the other hand,Neimark et al.(1992,1994) proposed the so-called thermodynamic method for cal-culating the fractal dimension D from the adsorption isotherm data.In this model,the fractal surface area*Author to whom correspondence should be addressed.S(z))d V/d z(1)S∝V(2-D)/(3-D)(2)ln(N))const-(3-D)ln(µ)(3)µ)RT ln(P/P)(4)1598Ind.Eng.Chem.Res.1997,36,1598-1602S0888-5885(96)00555-6CCC:$14.00©1997American Chemical Societywas related to the average pore radius as(Neimark,1992):and the surface area of the adsorbed film is calculatedaccording to the Kiselev equation:where X denotes the relative pressure and N max denotesthe amount adsorbed at X tending to unity.Theyardstick is measured in terms of the average radius ofcurvature of the meniscus at the interface betweencondensed adsorbate and gas by the Kelvin equation: The thermodynamic method proposed by Neimark(1992)and the method based on the FHH theoryproposed by Pfeifer and Cole(1990)have been comparedwith one another by Jaroniec(1995).The theoreticalanalysis shows that both methods are essentially equiva-lent.However,the simulation results using Neimark’srelation show that the range of scale in which fractalexists is rather limited,which makes us suspect itsvalidity and robustness.The objective of this work is to develop a more reliablescaling relation to determine surface fractal dimensionof porous materials using the capillary condensationdata.We also show that the new method,based onconcrete analysis of the properties of topology andcapillary condensation processes for porous media,ismuch more accurate than Neimark’s relation and coversa wide range of scales.Then the simulation results willbe compared with those of the references.TheoryMandelbrot(1982)gave a correlation of the area fora fractal surface and the volume circumscribed by thesurface:In case the fractal surface is measured on a Euclideanarea,the above relation can be changed into thesubsequent form by dimensional analysis:where k0is a factor relating surface area with the corresponding volume.Just as illustrated by Neimark(1992),a given fractalsurface can be approximated by its inscribed equicur-vature surface(IES)of varying mean curvature radius(MCR).The decrease of the MCR,r c,causes penetrationof the IES into surface indentations of smaller size.Inother words,with a decrease of r c,the IES repeats allthe peculiarities of the substratum relief.In the limitr c f0,the IES is the fractal surface with the same dimension as the surface fractal dimension of thesubstratum.So,the mean curvature radius of theinscribed equicurvature surfaces can be chosen as ayardstick for measurement of the fractal surface.The practical realization of this method can be provided by using the adsorption experiments.In the process of adsorption of nitrogen in porous media,the equilibrium interface between the liquid film and gas acts as the inscribed equicurvature surface.So, the surface area of the adsorbed film can be calculated according to the Kiselev equation(6).After assuming that the liquid cannot be compressed, one can get the following relation:Substitution of S E and V(X)into eq9by eqs6and10 gives the following expression:LetEquation11will be changed into the ensuring style Accordingly,from the adsorption isotherm of nitrogen in the region of capillary condensation,we can compute a series of A(X)and B(X),where r c(X)can be predicted by the Kelvin equation(7)and then the surface fractal dimension can easily be achieved.Results and DiscussionFor a given porous solid,the desorption isotherm does not always retrace the adsorption isotherm but lies above it over a range pressures,forming a hysteresis loop,before eventually rejoining the adsorption iso-therm.The fractal dimension determined by eq13can be calculated either from the adsorption isotherm or from the desorption isotherm.First,the simulation of surface fractal dimension for several samples has been made by eq13using the nitrogen adsorption and desorption data of the literature(Neimark et al.,1994), so that we can have a comparison with the simulation results by Neimark’s relation.The evaluation of the surface fractal dimension of SiO2(A)using eqs5and13 is illustrated in Figures1and2,respectively,as an example.The obtained results are reported in Table1. This table also includes the range of scale from which the D was calculated.The above calculations and analyses show that the results simulated by means of eq13for several kinds of porous materials totally fall in the range of2<D< 3,which is predicted by fractal geometry,so this method is comparatively reasonable among the methods used to determine the surface fractal dimensions.From these results one can conclude that the method in this work is reliable over a sufficiently wide range of scales from1to250nm.Neimark’s relation,however,is seemingly reasonable only over a rather narrow range of scales.This is caused by the defects in the scaling relation(5).We know,from eq9,that only when theln(S))const-(D-2)ln(r)(5)S(X))RTσ∫N(X)N max ln(X)d N(X)(6) r)-2σVLRT ln(X)(7) S1/D∼V1/3(8)S

B(X)(13)Ind.Eng.Chem.Res.,Vol.36,No.5,19971599volume encompassed by the fractal surface remains unchanged in the process can eq 3be rewritten asfrom which eq 5was obtained.But the capillary condensation process cannot satisfy this condition.With the increase of the relative pressure of nitrogen,the volume encompassed by the liquid -gas interface is decreased,so Neimark’s simulation results cannot characterize the real structure of the porous media.However,when the relative pressure of nitrogen X )P/P 0is relatively small,the volume does not change remarkably,so Neimark’s relation shows seemingly reasonable results in this range.In the range of greater relative pressure of nitrogen,especially after the valueof X surpassed 0.8,the volume encompassed by the liquid -gas interface decreased remarkably with an increase of X ,so the experimental data violated the simulated straight line.Neimark cannot find the defects in his scaling law and get to the wrong conclu-sion that the scaling interval for these porous solid is very narrow.So,it is necessary that the scaling relation developed to measure the surface fractal dimension using the capillary condensation data not only conform to the theory of fractal geometry itself but also consort with the concrete process of capillary condensation as well.Obviously,this idea has been considered when the scaling relation of this paper is being deduced.By contrast,the surface fractal dimensions deter-mined by the adsorption data are smaller than those determined by the desorption data;this cannot be thought of as caused by the experimental probable error.The surface morphology is not the only factor that affects the desorption process;the topology of the porous space has a significant influence on this process.In the process of desorption,due to the “shielding”effect of the small pores on the large one,the calculating results of S E (X )are larger than those of S E in reality and thus make the discrepancy between D abs and D des .The quantitative difference between the two indicates the degree of the influence of the shielding effect,so it reflects the topological feature of the porous solid in some degree.Jaroniec (1995)compared the fractal FHH equation (3)and Neimark’s relation (5)and concluded that the two methods are theoretically equivalent.So,the FHH equation meets the same difficulty when being used to evaluate the surface fractal dimension.Sahouli et al.(1996)reexamined the two methods and concluded that the FHH type equation is also sensitive to the mi-croporous structures in contrast to Neimark’s relation,and this causes the disagreement of the results of the two methods for the solids with high surface area.In fact,the disagreement is due to the fact that the two methods were used in two different scale ranges.When being used in the same scale range,these two methods should yield the same results.The method in this work is based on the thermody-namic principle;another thermodynamic method to measure the surface fractal dimensions for the porous materials has been developed by Zhang and Li (1995).These two methods use different experimental data,with Zhang’s method using the mercury porosimetry data and the method in this work developed to use the capillary condensation data,but both are based on the same principle.In order to make a comparison between the two methods,we have done the experiments to get the mercury porosimetry and nitrogen adsorption iso-therm of the same four porous materials.The experi-mental data of mercury porosimetry are measured by means of a J5-70porosimeter made in Shanghai,People’s Republic of China.The range of pressureinFigure 1.Simulation results from eq 13for SiO 2(A).Figure 2.Simulation

a CHEMBET-3000adsorption apparatus made by Quantachrome Co.,Syosset,NY. The simulation results are demonstrated in Table2. The simulation results show that the surface fractal dimensions determined by mercury porosimetry,D m,are larger than both D abs and D des.In the process of adsorption,before capillary condensation occurs,there has been a nitrogen film adsorbed on the surface of the porous solid.As a result,the interface between the film and the vapor,with which the film is in equilibrium,is no longer a simple replica of the film-solid interface. Due to the effect of the surface tension,the D abs is smaller than the real dimension of the fractal surface. So,the discrepancy between D abs and D real is determined by the competition between the attractive van der Waals gas-solid potential and the repulsive surface free energy of the nitrogen film.The potential wants to make the film-vapor interface follow the ups and downs of the surface as closely as possible,so that the adsorbed molecules get to set as close to the solid surface as possible.The surface tension,on the other hand,wants to make the film-vapor interface as flat as possible,so as to minimize the surface area of the interface;the two effects entangled together make the discrepancy be-tween D abs and D real.These effects,also,act on the determination of D des.On the other hand,the shielding effect makes the surface fractal dimension D m deter-mined by mercury porosimetry larger than the real dimension of the fractal surface,so it is not surprising that D m ofγ-Al2O3(C)is greater than 3.So,the shielding effect of the small pores on the large one and the effect of the surface tension result in D m>D des> D abs,which is proved by this work.From the analysis above,we can see that the discrepancies between D m and D real,D des and D abs show the shielding effect of the small pores on the large one,while the discrepancies between D real and D abs,D m and D des show the effect of the surface tension.So,we can easily get the conclusion that the following relation exists:The real surface fractal dimension of porous media can be determined by D abs,D des,and D m jointly. ConclusionA new method is proposed to determine the surface fractal dimension for a porous solid.The method is based on the approximation of a given fractal surface by inscribed equicurvature surfaces of varying mean curvature radius.The practical realization of this method for determining the surface fractal dimension of real porous materials is provided by analyzing experimental data of capillary condensation.The simulations for several kinds of porous media are fulfilled by analyzing the nitrogen adsorption isotherm and mercury porosimetry from the literature and our own.The results show that D abs,D des,and D m are different and D m>D des>D abs.By analyzing the process of adsorption,desorption of nitrogen,and mer-cury incursion,the author gives a reasonable explana-tion of the results and achieves the conclusion that D real )D abs+(D m-D des))D m-(D des-D abs).So,the real surface fractal dimension cannot be determined by D abs, D des,and D m,respectively,but jointly.

Carolina Research Campus,Kannapolis,NC 28081,USA(Received 20April 2012;Accepted in revised form 25July 2012)SummaryThe roles of functional foods on human health have been realised by more and more researchers,food producers and consumers.Functional food ingredients from both plant and animal sources such as die-tary fibre,soy protein isolate,whey protein isolate and omega 3fatty acid have been widely used in func-tional food product development.Many fruit processing by-products such as grape,apple and orange peels are rich in bioactive phytochemicals,dietary fibre and unsaturated fatty acids,hence have potential to serve as functional food ingredients.In this review,we summarise recent advancement of research in grape pomace (GP),the residual of grapes after wine making.The polyphenol profile of GP and their bio-logical,antioxidant and antimicrobial activities,the stability of GP polyphenols in food system,the inter-action between GP polyphenol and other food ingredients,as well as the functionalities of grape seed oil and GP fibre are covered.KeywordsBiological properties,dietary fibre,grape pomace,grape seed oil,grape seed protein,polyphenol composition,thermal stability.Introduction Grape pomace (GP)is a by-product of wine industry.GP consists mainly of peels (skins),seeds and stems and accounts for about 20–25%of the weight of the grape crushed for wine production.Grape seed is rich in extractable phenolic antioxidants such as phenolic acid,flavonoids,procyanidins and resveratrol,while grape skins contain abundant anthocyanins.The health benefits of GP polyphenols have been the great interest of researchers,food industry and nutraceutical industry.In addition to phenolic antioxidants,GPs also contain significant amount of lipid,proteins,non-digestible fibre and minerals.Grape seeds contain 13–19%oil,which is rich in essential fatty acids,about 11%protein,60–70%of non-digestible carbohydrates,and non-phenolic antioxidants such as tocopherols and beta-carotene (Rao,1994;Baydar &Akkurt,2001;Bravi et al.,2007;Llobera &Can ellas,2007).This review summarises the recent studies on major components of GP,their important properties and their possible applications that are.Phenolic compounds of GP and their propertiesPolyphenol composition of GPPhenolics are the secondary metabolites of plants.Chemically,phenolics can be defined as substances pos-sessing an aromatic ring bearing one or more hydroxyl groups,including their functional derivatives (Shahidi &Naczk,2004).Polyphenols are compounds that have more than one phenolic hydroxyl group attached to one or more benzene rings (Vermerris &Nicholson,2006).Most food phenolics have more than one hydroxyl group attached on the aromatic ring;therefore,in this review,phenolics and polyphenols are used interchange-ably.In food science research,natural phenolics are generally classified into classes and sub-classes based on the similarity of their chemical structures,that is,the types of building blocks that appear as repeated units.Four major classes of polyphenols found in foods are phenolic acids,flavonoids,lignans and stilbenes (Spencer et al.,2008).Major stilbenoids found in foods of plant origin are resveratrol and it glycosides.Resveratrol is a phytoalexin produced in the plant in response to pathogen attack.It has a low toxicity in humans and is a naturally occurring fungicide.*Correspondent:Fax:3363347239;e-mail:jyu@International Journal ofFood Science and Technology 2013,48,221–237doi:10.1111/j.1365-2621.2012.03197.x©2012The Authors.International Journal of Food Science and Technology ©2012Institute of Food Science and Technology221Phenolic acids are phenols that possess one carbox-ylic acid functional group and are divided into hydroxycinnamic acids and hydroxybenzoic acids.The hydroxycinnamic acids are more common than hydroxy-benzoic acids,and they mainly include gallic acid,p -coumaric,caffeic,chlorogenic acid,ferulic and sinapic acids.These acids are rarely found in the free form,except in food that has undergone freezing,sterilisation or fermentation.The bound forms are glycosylated derivatives or esters of quinic acid,shikimic acid and tartaric acid (Vermerris &Nicholson,2006).The largest and best studied polyphenols are the flavonoids.Based on their molecular structures,flavonoids are divided into seven subclasses:flavones,flavanones,flavonols,isoflavones,anthocyanidins/an-thocyanins,flavanols (or catechins and procyanidins)and chalcones (Karakaya,2004).Another group of flavonoids,which are not included in this classifica-tion,are proanthocyanidins,also called,procyanidins,condensed tannins or oligomeric procyanidins (Prior &Gu,2005).Although phenolics are present virtually in all plant foods,some fruits such as grape,apple,blueberry and cranberry are extremely rich in these bioactive com-pounds.In grape berries,the phenolic compounds reside mainly in the skins,seeds and short stems (Rodriguez et al.,2006;Poudel et al.,2008).GP is rich in extractable phenolic antioxidants (10–11%of dry weight)(Makris et al.,2007).Anthocyanins,catechins,procyanidins,flavonol glycosides,phenolic acids and stilbenes are the principal phenolic constituents found in GP (Montealegre et al.,2006).Polyphenol composition of GP is variety dependant.The red varieties are usually rich in anthocyaninins that are neglected in while white varieties.Within the same variety,different part has significantly different polyphenol composition.Cantos et al.(2002)analysed the polyphenol composition of four red and three white table grape varieties by HPLC-ADA-MS and found that anthocyanins were the main phenolics in red grapes ranging from 69(Crimson Seedless)to 151(Flame Seedless)mg kg À1fresh weight of grapes,whereas flavan-3-ols were the most abundant phenolics in the white varieties ranging from 52(Dominga)to 81(Moscatel Italica)mg kg À1fresh weight of grapes.Flavan-3-ols were also detected and were identified as gallocatechin,procyanidin B1,procyanidin B2,procy-anidin B4,procyanidin C1,catechin and epigallocate-chin.The study of the phenolic compounds content and antioxidant activity of pomace from the vinification of grape varieties widely produced in Brazil (Cabernet Sauvignon,Merlot,Bordeaux and Isabel)found that catechin was the most abundant non-anthocyanic com-pound identified in the GP (150.16mg 100g À1)for all varieties;Cabernet Sauvignon pomace had the highest content of total phenolic compounds (75mg g À1),while Bordeaux variety showed the highest content of total anthocyanins (Rockenbach et al.,2011).Phenolic compound distribution in different parts of grapes was reviewed by Xia et al.(2010).The grape skins,part of pomace,are proven to be rich sources of anthocyanins,hydroxycinnamic acids,flavanols and flavonol glycosides,whereas gallic acid and flavanols were mainly present in the seed portion (Kammerer et al.,2004;Xia et al.,2010).Thirty-seven anthocya-nins have been separated by McCalluma et al.(2007)from Concord grape skin,and among them twenty-five were identified using LC-MS.Among the anthocyanins identified in GP,five of them are the 3-O -monogluco-sides of delphinidin,cyaniding,petunidin,peonidin and mavidin;another five of them are the acetylgluco-sides of the five anthocyandins.Malvidin 3-O -gluco-side was found to be the predominant anthocyanin.Grape seeds are rich in monomeric phenolic com-pounds,such as (+)-catechins,(À)-epicatechin and (À)-epicatechin-3-Ogallate,and dimeric,trimeric and tet-rameric procyanidins.Anthocyanin content of GP var-ies with wine vinification method and contact time.The longer the contact time,the lower the anthocyanincontent remains in the pomace (Gomez-Plaza et al.,2006).The phenolic profile of grape skin and seeds of European variety Vitis Vinifera has been intensively studied by scientists all over the world.Montealegre et al.(2006)quantified many phenolic compounds in seeds and skins of ten V.vinifera grapes grown in the warm climate of Spain,including six white varieties (Chardonnay,Sauvignon blanc,Moscatel,Gewu rztr-aminer,Riesling and Viogner)and four red grape vari-eties (Cencibel,Cabernet Sauvignon,Merlot and Shiraz).They found that the skin of Viogner had the least of total hydroxycinnamates,catechin and procy-anidin dimmers,while that of Moscatel had the most of total hydroxycinnamates and flavonols.Chardon-nay and Gewu rztraminer skins were the richest in cate-chin and procyanidins among white grape varieties.Red grape skin contains higher amount of hydroxycin-namates than white grape skin (31–55mg kg À1fresh grape),but much lower amount of catechins (9.0–18mg kg À1fresh grape),procyanidin dimmers (8.0–18mg kg À1fresh grape)and total flavonols (12–19mg kg À1fresh grape).The polyphenol composition of each part of the GP varies depending on the varieties of grapes and is influ-enced by the growing location,climate,maturity and the time of fermentation (Fuleki &Ricardo da Silva,1997;Kennedy et al.,2000;Shi et al.,2003a;Monteal-egre et al.,2006).The per-berry extractable yield of all polyphenols decreased with maturity and followed sec-ond-order kinetics.The flavan-3-ol monomers decreased most rapidly,followed by the procyanidin extension units and finally the terminal units.The©2012The AuthorsInternational Journal of Food Science and Technology ©2012Institute of Food Science and TechnologyInternational Journal of Food Science and Technology 2012Functional components of grape pomace J.Yu and M.Ahmedna222relative proportion of procyanidin extension units did not vary with maturity(Kennedy et al.,2000).The phenolic composition of white and red grape seeds is comparable,but catechin,epicatechin and procyanidin B1are higher in white grape seeds.Overall,grape seeds contained lower amount of phenolic acid than grape skin,but rich in catechins and procyandins. Castillo-Mun oz et al.(2010)investigated theflavonol profiles of white GPs from twenty-one V.vinifera white grape cultivars in Spain and found thatflavonol profiles of white grapes are dominated by quercetin-typeflavonols,but some cultivars(e.g.Pedro Xime nez, Gewu rztraminer,Verdejo,Albillo,and Riesling)were characterised by relatively high and significantly differ-ent proportions of isorhamnetin-typeflavonols.The phenolic compounds in grape seeds are essen-tially allflavonoids,particularly,flavan-3-ols(catechin, epicatechin and epicatechin-3-O-gallate monomers) and their polypmers.Flavan-3-ols easily condenses into oligomeric procyanidins and polymeric com-pounds(condensed tannins).The dimeric procyanidins are often referred as B-series,and the trimeric procy-anidins as C-series.Five different dimers(procyanidin B1,B2,B3,B4and B5)and two trimers(C1and C2) were identified from grape skin and seeds(Shi et al., 2003a).Analysis of procyanidins extracted from both white and red grape seeds by electrospray ionisation–mass spectrometry(ESI-MS and ESI-MS/MS)in the positive mode found protonated molecules of procy-anidin species of nongalloylated and monogalloylated type-A and type-B oligomers,with degree of polymeri-sation2–5,and digalloylated oligomers,with degree of polymerisation2–3(Passos et al.,2007).The native grape variety grown in the United States is Muscadine,which includes the popular cultivars of Carlos,Cowart,Jumbo,Magnolia,Sterling,Nesbitt, Scuppernong and Noble.These grapes have tougher skins and less seeds than V.vinifera grapes.The study conducted in our laboratory demonstrated that Mus-cadine GP had about5%more skin,but8%less seeds than Cabernet GP.The polyphenol composition of Muscadine GP and Cabernet GP was also different. The contents of total extractable polyphenol,total anthocyanin and totalflavonoid were36.42,0.88and 21.02mg gÀ1DM in Muscadine seeds,19.39,8.15 and4.78mg gÀ1DM in Muscadine skin,respectively (Yu et al.,2011).Ellagic acid,gallic acid,(À)-epicate-chin,(À)-epigallocatechin,catechin,myricetin,querce-tin,and kaempferol and some anthocyanidins including delphinidin,cyanidin,petunidin,peonidin and malvidin were identified in the extract of Musca-dine pomace extract using the combination of reten-tion time and spectral properties on a reverse-phase HPLC–PDA(Wang et al.,2010).Approximately90% of the total anthocyanins in Muscadine grapes were 3,5-diglucoside of delphinidin,cyanidin and petunidin;the remaining10%were3,5-diglucoside of peonidin and malvidin;purple-skinned muscadine grapes(Jumbo and Cowart)have significantly higher levels of anthocy-anins than bronze-skinned muscadine grapes(Carlos and Higgin)(Huang et al.,2009).Resveratrol is another important polyphenol found in grape skins and seeds.Resveratrols are found lar-gely in the skins of red grapes and in other foods such as mulberries and peanuts(Sanders et al.,2000).The trans-resveratrol content was found to be 1.11–12.3 mg per100dry mass in grape skin,8.64±4.5mg per 100dry mass in white grape skin and1.42±0.18mg per100g dry mass in white grape seeds(Kammerer et al.,2004).The resveratrol content in grapes differs according to the variety of grape(Ector et al.,1996) and the grape maturation(Moreno et al.,2008).Mus-cadine grapes and their products were reported to con-tain more resveratrol than any other type of grape (Ector et al.,1996).‘Carlos’and‘Magnolia’Musca-dine cultivars had the greatest skin resveratrol concen-tration of all the Muscadine cultivars evaluated. Except for‘Sweet Jenny’,bronze cultivars had greater skin resveratrol concentration than black skinned culti-vars.‘Miss Blanc’Vitis labrusca grape had greater skin resveratrol concentration than all other cultivars (LeBlanc,2006).Resveratrol contents in grape tissues can be modified by post-harvest technologies.Cold storage alone doubled skin stilbene concentration in ‘Carlos’grape,but UV irradiation did not significantly change stilbene levels.In contrast,UV irradiation increased skin stilbene concentration by50%in ‘Noble’grape,but cold storage alone had no effect (LeBlanc,2006).Although certain amount of resvera-trols in grape transfers into wine during grape macera-tion,significant amount of resveratrols remains in the pomace(Feijo o et al.,2008).Like other plant materials,GP contains relatively higher amount of non-extractable polyphenols(NEP). Although the total polyphenol content in dry GP is about 4.8–5.4%(Makris et al.,2007),only2%of polyphenols in GP is extractable under mild conditions commonly used to develop polyphenol databases (Bravo&Saura-Calixto,1998).The majority portion of GP polyphenols has been reported to be highly polymerised condensed tannin,and some polyphenols form complex withfibre and are non-extractable unless strong acidic treatments are applied(Arranz et al., 2010).Monomeric and oligomeric proanthocyanidins are certainly soluble in the organic solvents usually used for polyphenol extraction,but a major propor-tion of high-molecular-weight proanthocyanidins and polyphenols complexed with protein or cell wall poly-saccharides remain insoluble(Huemmer&Schereier, 2008).The quantification of NEP in GP needs hydro-lysis of GP residual to release the bound phenolics from cell wall or protein after soluble polyphenols are©2012The AuthorsInternational Journal of Food Science and Technology©2012Institute of Food Science and Technology International Journal of Food Science and Technology2012Functional components of grape pomace J.Yu and M.Ahmedna223extracted (Ignat et al.,2011).The NEP content of GP can be as high as 67mg g À1DM in red GP (var.Cencibel)and as low as 1.68mg g À1in white GP (var.Thompson,seedless)(Perez-Jime nez et al.,2009).Some food processing methods such as extrusion increased extractable and bioavailable polyphenols (catechin and epicatechin)and reduced the NEP by reducing the degree of polymerisation (Khanal et al.,2009).Similar results were observed for the extractabil-ity of polyphenols in roasted peanut and almond skins (Yu et al.,2005,2006,2007;Garrido et al.(2008).These studies suggest that thermal processing may increase the extractability and bioavailability of some polyphenols while destroying heat sensitive polyphe-nols,in grape skin and seeds.Biological properties of GP polyphenolsNumerous studies have demonstrated that grape seed phenolics,particularly procyanidins,have many health benefits such as antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic activity (Joshi et al.,2000;Carini et al.,2000;Manten-a &Katiyar,2006;Yeh &Yen,2006;Bagchi et al.,2000;de Rezende,et al.,2009),antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities (Prior &Gu,2005;Sartor et al.,2002),prevention and delay of cardiovascular diseases (Brito et al.,2002;Vigna et al.,2003;Bagchi et al.,2003;Karthikeyan et al.,2009;Bradamante et al.,2004;Sano et al.,2005),increase in lifespan and retarded the onset of age-related markers (Valenzano et al.,2006).Some recent studies have also shown that taking grape seed extract (GSE)reduced food intake in rats and energy intake in human (Vogels &Plant-enga,2004).The main bioactive compounds responsi-ble for many reported health benefits of wine and wine by-products consist of antioxidant phenolics such as phenolic acids,anthocyanins,procyanidins and revera-trols (Shrikhande,2000;Yilmaz &Toledo,2004;).Antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic propertiesA study by Bagchi et al.(2000)demonstrated that grape seed procyanidin extract (GSPE)was highly bio-available and provided significantly greater protection against free radicals and free radical induced lipid oxi-dation and DNA damage than vitamins C,E or b -car-otene.Cytotoxicity of GSPE towards human breast,lung,gastric adenocarcinoma cells,while enhancing the growth and viability of gastric mucosal cells,was also observed in the same study.GSPE also exhibited protection against skin cancer by inhibiting UV-radia-tion-induced oxidative stress and activation of mito-gen-activated protein kinase and NF-jB signalling in human epidermal keratinocytes (Bagchi et al.,2000;Mantena &Katiyar,2006;White et al.,2006).The study of Kaur et al.(2008)found that irrespective of source,GSE strongly inhibits LoVo,HT29andSW480cell growth,with a G1arrest in LoVo and HT29cells,but an S and/or G2/M arrest in SW480cell cycle progression.GSE also induced Cip/p21levels in all three cell lines.Furthermore,an induction of apoptosis was observed in all three cell lines by GSE.These findings suggest that GSE could be an effective alternative and complementary medicine against colo-rectal cancer because of its strong growth inhibitory and apoptosis-inducing effects.It also has been reported that phenolics from grape seeds and skin inhibit some matrix proteases,such as leucocyte elastase and gelatinases,associated with inflammation and cancer invasion (Sartor et al.,2002).The cell cultural study of Mertens-Talcott et al.(2008)show that the polypenol extracts from both red Musca-dine and Cabernet Sauvignon wine significantly inhib-ited the growth of MOLT-4leukaemia cells.Wine extracts reduced cell viability up to 68%and cell num-bers up to 50%after 48h with muscadine extracts being more effective than cabernet sauvignon.These extracts also induced caspase-3activity and cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase.The roles of anthocyanins in cancer prevention were extensively reviewed by Wang &Stoner (2008)and will not be repeated in this review.Grape seeds are rich in B type procyanidins.Many studies revealed that GSPE can serve as potential ther-apeutic agent for different cancers.An in vitro study found that grape seed procyanidins inhibited pancre-atic carcinoma cells MIA PaCa-2and

adhesion and inva-sion potential of both cell lines in a dose-dependent manner through downregulation of MMP-2or MMP-9in pancreatic carcinoma cells (Chung et al.,2012).Grape seed proanthocyanidins also induced apoptosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)cells,A549and H1299,in vitro through increased expression of pro-apoptotic protein Bax,decreased expression of antia-poptotic proteins Bcl2and Bcl-xl,disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential and activation of caspases 9,3and poly (ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP).Further,administration of 50,100or 200mg GSPs kg À1body weight of

pathways(Du&Lou, 2008).There is growing evidence that resveratrol can pre-vent or delay the onset of various cancers,heart dis-eases,ischaemic and chemically induced injuries, pathological inflammation and viral infections.As a chemoprevention agent,resveratrol has been shown to inhibit tumour initiation,promotion and progression (Jang et al.,1997).The review of Shanker et al.(2007) summarises the molecular mechanisms of resveratrol and its clinical benefits for human diseases.Resvera-trol induces apoptosis by upregulating the expression of Bax,Bak,PUMA,Noxa,Bim,p53,TRAIL, TRAIL-R1/DR4and TRAIL-R2/DR5and simulta-neously downregulating the expression of Bcl-2,Bcl-XL, Mcl-1and survivin.Resveratrol also potentiates the apoptotic effects of cytokines,chemotherapeutic agents and gamma-radiation.Pharmacokinetic and pharmaco-dynamic studies demonstrate that the main target organs of resveratrol are liver and kidney,and it is metabolised by hydroxylation,glucuronidation,sulf-ation and hydrogenation(Bishayee et al.,2010).Resve-ratrol(~25l M)potentiated GSE(35l g mLÀ1) induced colon cancer cell apoptosis via the activation of p53-dependent pathways(Radhakrishnan et al., 2011).This discovery suggests the importance of under-standing the potentiating effects of phytonutrients in combination as they would occur in nature rather than individually.The cancer prevention mechanism of food polyphe-nols has been extensively studied.Many potential chemopreventive polyphenols may interrupt or reverse the carcinogenesis process by acting on intracellular signalling network molecules involved in the initiation and/or promotion of cancer(Manson,2003;Surh, 2003).The programmed cell death is considered one of the important targets in a preventive approach against cancer.Reversing the conversion of a normal cell to a malignant one is a complex process that involves active participation of affected cells in a self-destruc-tion cascade.In addition to signal transduction and regulation of proliferation and immune response,die-tary polyphenols readily interact with reactive oxygen species or free radicals to form relatively stable com-pounds,thus prevent cells from oxidative damage and onset of cancer.The major chemoprevention and che-motherapy mechanisms of dietary polyphenols may include(i)alteration of phase-I and phase-II drug-met-abolising enzymes,(ii)antioxidant properties,(iii) inhibition of protein kinases,(iv)blocking of receptor-mediated functions,(v)attenuation of protease activities,(vi)alteration of cell cycle checkpoint controls,transcription factor expression and apoptosis, (vii)inhibition of angiogenesis,invasion and metastasis,and(viii)epigenetic changes in promoter methylation and chromatin remodelling(Dashwood,2007;Kundu &Surh,2008).Prevention of cardiovascular diseasesEpidemiological studies suggest that consumption of wine,grape products and other foods containing polyphenols is associated with decreased risk of car-diovascular disease.Cardiovascular disease is associ-ated with modifications in fatty acid metabolism and excessive lipid peroxidation of LDL.These oxidation products are also implicated in the formation of thromboxane,which leadsfirst to enhanced platelet aggregation,then to artery blockage andfinally to thrombosis.The accumulation of lipid oxidation prod-ucts from LDL can be attributed to the low levels of plasma antioxidants.A rat study showed that a15%GP in cholesterol diet(0.3%)produced a significant reduction in choles-terol and triacylglycerols in the liver and serum.The diet contains15%GP reduced VLDL and LDL by50 and60–70%,respectively,while increase HDL level by 26%(Bobek,1999).Grape seed polyphenols reduce the risk of heart disease by inhibiting the oxidation of LDL(Shi et al.,2003a,b).Intravenous and oral administration of grape seed procyanidins was found to significantly inhibit laser-induced thrombus forma-tion in the carotid artery of mice(Sano et al.,2005). Protection against myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion and myocardial injury in rats was reported by Bagchi et al.(2000)and Karthikeyan et al.(2009).GSEs rich in polyphenols exhibited higher effectiveness in reduc-tion in platelet adhesion,aggregation and generation of superoxide anion than pure resveratrol(Olas et al., 2008).Experimental studies indicate that grape polyphenols could reduce atherosclerosis by a number of mechanisms,including inhibition of oxidation of LDL and other favourable effects on cellular redox state,improvement in endothelial function,lowering blood pressure,inhibition of platelet aggregation, reducing inflammation and activating novel proteins that prevent cell senescence(Dohadwala&Vita, 2009).Procyanidins from GP inhibit human endothelial NADPH oxidase,the enzyme responsible for the increased production of reactive oxygen species, regardless of their polymerisation degree and galloyla-tion percentage.The procyanidin fractions even blocked NADPH oxidase activity in intact HUVEC, inhibiting ROS production at both extra-and intracel-lular levels.Therefore,grape procyanidins are suitable NADPH oxidase inhibitors,which could serve as models for therapeutic alternatives for cardiovascular diseases(A lvarez et al.,2012).Supplementation with the high dose of mixture of cathechin,caffeic acid and resveratrol significantly reduced the presence of©2012The AuthorsInternational Journal of Food Science and Technology©2012Institute of Food Science and Technology International Journal of Food Science and Technology2012Functional components of grape pomace J.Yu and M.Ahmedna225atherosclerotic plaque by 40and 36%in the aortic sinus and in the ascending aorta,respectively Norata et al.(2007).Resveratrol alone also showed significant antiatherogenic and anti-inflammatory effects in an animal model of rabbits fed a hypercholesterolemic diet (1%cholesterol)Matos et al.(2012).CVD pre-ventative activities of anthocyanins,including results from in vitro cell culture and in vivo animal model systems as related to their multiple proposed mecha-nisms of action,were reviewed by Wallace (2011)and will not be repeated in this review.Antilipogenic propertiesVogels &Plantenga (2004)reported that GSE reduced food intake in rats and energy intake in humans.In an in vitro study by Moreno et al.(2003),GSE was found to significantly inhibit pancreatic lipase,lipoprotein lipase and hormone sensitive lipase that responsible for the fat digestion and metabolism in human body.A study with rats fed high-fat diet shows that GSPE rectifies dyslipidemia associated with a high-fat diet in rats and repress genes controlling lipogenesis and VLDL assembling in liver (Baiges et al.,2010).Low-dose (25mg per kg body weight per day)GSPE treat-ment of high-fat-diet (HFD)fed rats significantly reduced the adiposity index and the weight of all the white adipose tissue depots and reversed the increase in plasma phospholipids induced by the HFD feeding (Caimari et al.,2012).Chronic consumption of grape phenolics has shown to reduce obesity development and related metabolic pathways including adipokinesecretion and oxidative stress in a rat model (Decorde et al.,2009).These studies suggest that grape seed polyphenols may play a role in body-weight management.Antiageing activitiesGrape seed extract has been shown to have a modula-tory role on age-related oxidative DNA damage and lipid peroxidation in central nervous system of rats (Feng et al.,2005;Balu et al.,2006).Aged rats given GSE showed improved memory performance,reduced reactive oxygen species production,decreased protein carbonyl level,increased thiol level and reduced hyp-oxic ischaemic brain injury in their central nervous systems.Recent studies show that resveratrol could exert neuroprotection against ischaemia,seizure and neurodegenerative diseases (Markus &Morris,2008).In the study conducted by Zhang et al.(2010),rat primary midbrain neuron-glia cultures were used to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying resve-ratrol-mediated neuroprotection.The results clearly show that resveratrol protected dopamine neurons against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced neurotoxicity in concentration-and time-dependent manners through the inhibition of microglial activation and thesubsequent reduction in proinflammatory factor release.Mechanistically,resveratrol-mediated neuroprotection was attributed to the inhibition of NADPH oxidase.Antioxidant activities of GP polyphenols in foodsAntioxidant activity is the most notable bioactivity of phenolic compounds from GP.The antioxidative characteristics have been widely studied,including scavenging of free radicals,inhibition of lipid oxida-tion,reduction in hydroperoxide formation and so on (Xia et al.,2010).Polyphenols are proven to be strong antioxidants against lipid oxidation in food system.Grape seed phenolics (GSE)were reported to inhibit lipid oxidation and warmed-over flavour development in meat products such as raw and cooked beef products (Ahn et al.,2002,2007;Mielnik et al.,2006;Brannan &Mah,2007).GSE has reduced rancid flavour development and associated primary and secondary lipid oxidation products in various meat products like raw and cooked beef,pork patties,turkey,fish oil,frozen fish and ground chicken breast and thigh meat (Ahn et al.,2002;Banon et al.,2007;Brannan &Mah,2007;Brannan,2009;Carpenter et al.,2007;Lau &King,2003;Miel-nik et al.,2006;Pazos et al.,2005)without altering the pH,water activity,binding strength or yield of the meat.The minimum concentration level of GSE required to produce an antioxidant effect was 400l g g À1in cooked pork and 0.1%(w/w)in ground chicken (Lau &King,2003).However,GSE did alter the colour of both raw and precooked chicken breast patties (Brannan,2009).The degree of discoloration caused by adding GSE may depend on the variety of grape,type of meat and dosage.GSE may be more suitable for red meat than white meat.The GSE that contains less anthocyanins may be bet-ter choice as antioxidant in meat products.Antimicrobial activities of polyphenols from GPIn addition to antioxidant activities and therapeutic functions,many plant phenolic extracts have been shown to have antimicrobial activity against specific strains of bacteria such as Streptococcus Mutans ,Staphylococcus aureus,Escherichia coli and Candida albicans (O’Keefe &Wang 2006;Daglia et al.,2007),S.aureus,E.coli and C.albicans (C.albicans )(Papad-opoulou et al.,2005).Ahn and others (Ahn et al.,2007)reported that 1.0%GSE in cooked ground beef reduced the growth of E.coli O157:H7,L.monocytoge-nes,S.Typhimurim and A.Hydrophila by 1.5,2,1and 3LogCFU,respectively,during a 9-day storage.By using scanning and transmission electron microscopy,these authors also found grape seed polyphenols functioned as bactericidal,which caused disruption

First-Order Phase Transition in Potts Models with finite-range interactions
T. Gobron and I. Merola
Abstract. We consider the Q-state Potts model on Zd , Q ≥ 3, d ≥ 2, with Kac ferromagnetic interactions and scaling parameter γ . We prove the existence of a first order phase transition for large but finite potential ranges. More precisely we prove that for γ small enough there is a value of the temperature at which coexist Q + 1 Gibbs states. The proof is obtained by a perturbation around mean-field using Pirogov-Sinai theory. The result is valid in particular for d = 2, Q = 3, in contrast with the case of nearest-neighbor interactions for which available results indicate a second order phase transition. Putting both results together provides an example of a system which undergoes a transition from second to first order phase transition by changing only the finite range of the interaction.

Occasional observations were made also with nearly identical instruments on the1.5-m Tilling-hast reflector at the F.L.Whipple Observatory (Mt.Hopkins,Arizona)and the Multiple Mirror Telescope(also on Mt.Hopkins,Arizona),prior to its conversion to a monolithic mirror.A total of72 spectra were collected,including one archival ob-servation taken at the Tillinghast reflector much earlier for a different program(October1983). The signal-to-noise(S/N)ratios of these observa-tions range from10to40per resolution element of8.5km s−1.The double-lined nature of the system is evident already in ourfirst(archival)spectrum from1983. Radial velocities were derived from all our obser-vations using TODCOR(Zucker&Mazeh1994), a two-dimensional cross-correlation algorithm well suited to our relatively low S/N spectra.TOD-COR uses two templates,one for each component of the binary(hereafter stars Ba and Bb),and sig-nificantly reduces systematics due to line blend-ing that are often unavoidable in standard one-dimensional cross-correlation techniques(see,e.g., Latham et al.1996).The templates were selected from a large library of synthetic spectra based on model atmospheres by R.L.Kurucz(available at ),computed for us by Jon Morse(see also Nordstr¨o m et al.1994; Latham et al.2002).These calculated spectra are available for a wide range of effective temperatures (T eff),projected rotational velocities(v sin i),sur-face gravities(log g)and metallicities.Experi-ence has shown that radial velocities are largely insensitive to the surface gravity and metallicity adopted for the templates.Consequently,the op-timum template for each star was determined from grids of cross-correlations over broad ranges in temperature and rotational velocity(see Torres, Neuh¨a user&Guenther2002),seeking to maximize the average correlation weighted by the strength of each exposure.Solar metallicity was assumed to begin with,along with surface gravities of log g=4.5for both stars,appropriate for dwarfs. We obtained bestfit values for the temperatures of6180K and5620K for the primary and sec-ondary,respectively,with estimated uncertainties of150K.These correspond to spectral types of F8 and G6(Gray1992).The rotational broadening of the stars was found to be very small(formally v sin i=1±3km s−1for both stars),consistent with the estimates by Tokovinin&Gorynya(2001) of2.9±0.6km s−1and0km s−1for the primary and secondary,respectively.We repeated the pro-cedure for metallicities between[m/H]=−1.5and [m/H]=+0.5,in steps of0.5dex,and found the best match to be for solar composition.This is consistent with the results presented in§3.Following Zucker&Mazeh(1994),we deter-mined also the light ratio between the secondary and the primary of HD27638B at the mean wave-length of our spectroscopic observations(5187˚A), which is close to the V band:ℓBb/ℓBa=0.37±0.01.This corresponds to a magnitude difference ∆m=1.08±0.03,and agrees well with the inde-pendent estimate by Tokovinin&Gorynya(2001) of∆m=1.1.Table1lists the radial velocities for both components,referred to the heliocentric frame.Typical uncertainties are given below.The stability of the zero-point of our velocity systemwas monitored by means of exposures of the dusk and dawn sky,and small systematic run-to-run corrections were applied in the manner described by Latham(1992).The accuracy of the CfA ve-locity system,which is within about0.14km s−1 of the reference frame defined by minor planets in the solar system,is documented in the previous citation and also by Stefanik,Latham&Torres (1999)and Latham et al.(2002).2.1.Orbital solutionThe original motivation for our early observa-tions(prior to March1990)was to investigate sys-tematic errors in the determination of radial veloc-ities for early-type versus late-type stars by using physical pairs such as HD27638AB(tham 2005,m.).Although it was soon realized that no meaningful velocities could be obtained for the early-type star with our instrumentation,the double-lined nature of the secondary was certainly noticed and was the reason for collecting nearly 30spectra up to that date.However,no orbit was published at the time.After the implementa-tion of the TODCOR algorithm at the CfA there was renewed interest in the object as a potentially young system,and observations were resumed in late1996.It then became obvious that the cen-ter of mass of the17.6-day binary was changing in response to an additional component,and the system was monitored more regularly to complete the outer orbit.Only later did we learn of the in-dependent efforts by Tokovinin&Gorynya(2001) revealing the same trend.An orbital solution based on all CfA spectra is presented in the second column of Table2.Be-cause the outer period is much longer than the inner period,we have assumed tofirst order that the hierarchical triple system may be separated into an inner orbit and an outer orbit,the latter being treated as a“binary”composed of the third star(Bc)and the center of mass of the inner pair (Ba–Bb).Both orbits were solved simultaneously (12adjustable parameters)using standard itera-tive non-linear least-squares methods.In partic-ular,we applied the Levenberg-Marquardt tech-nique,which is described in detail by Press et al. (1992).The iterations converged quickly to the final solution,and experiments in which we var-ied the initial values of the elements within reason yielded the same results.Although the light travel time effect is small,we have included the appropri-ate corrections for the inner pair.These depend on the orbital elements,so they were iterated dur-ing the solution.The outer orbit has a period of 9.4years,and our data cover2.2cycles.The rms residual of the observations,indicative of the pre-cision of the radial velocities,is0.59km s−1for Ba and1.03km s−1for Bb.As mentioned earlier,the observations reported originally by Tokovinin&Gorynya(2001)do not quite cover a full cycle of the outer orbit.Those measurements were made with a CORAVEL-type radial-velocity spectrometer(“Radial Veloc-ity Meter”,hereafter RVM;Tokovinin1987)on the0.7-m telescope at Moscow University and the1-m telescope at the Simeis Observatory in Crimea,and have a precision similar to ours.The observations with this instrument were contin-ued after publication,and the authors were kind enough to provide us with an updated list of their RVM velocities for Ba and Bb.These observations are presented with their permission in Table3,and now cover nearly one full cycle of the outer orbit. An independent orbital solution from these data is given in the third column of Table2.There is ex-cellent agreement with the CfA solution for all of the orbital elements.Therefore we have combined the measurements,allowing for a possible velocity offset between the two data sets by incorporating an additional adjustable parameter(∆RV).The relative weighting of the observations was deter-mined by iterations separately for the primary and secondary components in each data set,based on the scatter of the measurements.For the RVM velocities it was found that the original internal errors(Table3)required the application of scaling factors of2.3and1.7to achieve reducedχ2values near unity for stars Ba and Bb,respectively.The combined CfA+RVM solution is listed in thefinal column of Table2.Residuals for the individual CfA and RVM observations from thisfit are given in Table1and Table3.The light travel correc-tions applied to the dates of the inner pair appear in the last column(the Julian dates shown are the original values,without corrections).Phases in the inner and outer orbits are also given.The radial velocities in the inner orbit are pre-sented graphically in Figure1,where the motion of the center of mass in the wide orbit has been subtracted from the individual primary and sec-ondary velocities.Similarly,the velocities in the outer orbit are shown in Figure2both as a func-tion of phase and time,with the motion in the in-ner orbit removed.The period of the wide orbit, P Bab−c=9.447±0.017yr,is formally determined with a relative precision better than0.2%.It is of interest to note that the lines of ap-sides of the inner and outer orbits appear to be nearly perfectly aligned,according to our solu-tion in Table2:the difference between the lon-gitudes of periastronωBa andωBab is0.◦8±1.◦5. This is unlikely to be accidental,and is presum-ably a result of dynamical interactions in the triple system.The outer period happens to be very close to an integer multiple of the inner period (P Bab−c/P Bab=196.03),although the formal un-certainty in this ratio(0.32)is large enough that it is not particularly significant.An improvement in P Bab−c by an order of magnitude would be needed for a more definitive conclusion.Of greater inter-est,as reported by Tokovinin&Gorynya(2001),is the fact that the mass function(or,equivalently, the minimum mass of the unseen companion of HD27638B)is unusually large.For any reason-able values of the masses of Ba and Bb(see below) the inferred mass of Bc is larger than either Ba or Bb,yet no light from the third star is obvious in our spectra.Tokovinin&Gorynya(2001)made an attempt to detect Bc spectroscopically by obtaining strong exposures at the phases of maximum velocity sep-aration between Ba and Bb.No sign of the third star was seen,and they estimated it must be at least5times fainter than Bb.We made a similar attempt using our CfA spectra,by reprocessing all of them with an extension of the two-dimensional cross-correlation algorithm TODCOR to three di-mensions(Zucker,Torres&Mazeh1995).Again we failed to detect star Bc.As suggested by Tokovinin&Gorynya(2001),one possibility is that Bc is obscured by circumstellar dust.This would require at least2to3magnitudes of ex-tinction in the visible to account for our inability to see it.Alternatively,Bc could itself be a pair of late-type stars,or perhaps a massive white dwarf. We examine these possibilities further below.3.Properties of the HD27638systemAs mentioned in§1,measurements of the rela-tive position of HD27638A and HD27638B over the past200years(some70observations to date) show that this is a physical pair1,with only a very slight indication of change suggesting perhaps or-bital motion.Radial velocities for the brighter star have been measured occasionally but show significant scatter,possibly due to the large ro-tational broadening that makes those measure-ments difficult(v sin i measures have ranged be-tween225km s−1and340km s−1;Abt,Levato& Grosso2002;Uesugi&Fukuda1982).A repre-sentative average of the radial velocity measures of HD27638A has been given by Barbier-Brossat &Figon(2000)as+15.3±3.4km s−1.This is consistent with the center-of-mass velocity of HD 27638B(γ=+14.694±0.081km s−1;Table2), supporting the physical association.No trigono-metric parallax determination is available for HD 27638B,but HD27638A does have an entry in the Hipparcos Catalog(ESA1997)and the measured parallax isπHIP=12.19±1.00milli-arc seconds (mas)corresponding to a distance of about82pc.The brightness of both HD27638A and HD 27638B has been measured separately in a vari-ety of photometric systems.The primary is listed in the Hipparcos Catalog as an‘unsolved variable’, with a variability amplitude of0.036±0.010mag in the H p passband.No other mention of variability could be found in the literature.The secondary was reported as marginally variable by Lindroos (1986)with a maximum change of∆V=0.07mag based on4measurements.However,no variabil-ity appears to have been detected by Hu´e lamo et al.(2004)or Mart´ın,Magazz`u&Rebolo(1992) from more intensive measurements in several pass-bands.For our purposes we assume that neither the primary nor the secondary of the visual pair are significantly variable in brightness.Adopting the Hipparcos distance of HD27638A for the system,along with Johnson V-band pho-tometry as compiled by Mermilliod,Mermilliod& Hauck(1997)2and our light ratioℓBb/ℓBa in§2,wecomputed absolute visual magnitudes for the three visible stars:M A V=0.82±0.18,M Ba V=4.20±0.18, and M Bb V=5.27±0.18.The errors here are dom-inated by the uncertainty in the parallax.Tem-peratures for stars Ba and Bb were given in§2(T Ba eff=6180±150K and T Bbeff=5620±150K).For HD27638A we have used absolute photome-try in the Johnson,Str¨o mgren,and Geneva sys-tems(Mermilliod,Mermilliod&Hauck1997)toderive the effective temperature based on a largenumber of color/temperature calibrations(Popper1980;Moon&Dworetsky1985;Gray1992;Napi-wotzki,Sch¨o nberner&Wenske1993;Balona1994;Smalley&Dworetsky1995;K¨u nzli et al.1997;Cox2000).The various estimates are in good agree-ment,and yield an average of T A eff=10300±300K,where the uncertainty is a conservative estimate toaccount for possible systematics.Gerbaldi,Farag-giana&Balin(2001)obtained results consistentwith ours.Reddening estimates based on Genevaand Str¨o mgren photometry give negligible valuesusing calibrations by Crawford(1978)and K¨u nzliet al.(1997),in agreement with Lindroos(1986)and Gerbaldi,Faraggiana&Balin(2001).We then used the absolute visual magnitudesand temperatures of the three visible stars to com-pare their location in the H-R diagram with stellarevolution models from the Yonsei-Yale series(Yi etal.2001;Demarque et al.2004).We performed agrid search and tested a large number of isochronesover a range of metal abundances and ages.Foreach metallicity/age combination we varied themasses of the stars,seeking the best match to theobservables.With the additional constraint on themass ratio for HD27638B(q≡M Bb/M Ba),orequivalently the minimum masses of the compo-nents(M sin3i Bab;see Table2),we reduced theproblem to one offinding the best values of M Aand the inclination of the inner orbit(i Bab)foreach age/metallicity combination.The result ofthis grid search is illustrated in Figure3,where thedots represent models that agree with the observa-tions within the errors.The bestfit isochrone hasa metallicity of Z=0.021and an age of200Myr,with uncertainties estimated to be roughly0.005in Z(or0.1dex in[Fe/H])and50Myr for theage.The agreement with the measured magni-3This is their estimate for HD27638A.The ages they derivedfor HD27638B are much younger(12–19Myr)because theyassumed it was a post-T Tauri star and used models for thepre-main sequence phase.strongly suggestive of a near-infrared excess for HD27638B,which in all likelihood is related to the unseen companion.4.The nature of the tertiary of HD27638BThe presence of an infrared excess may ap-pear to support the idea advanced by Tokovinin &Gorynya(2001)that star Bc is perhaps sur-rounded by a dust disk that is obscuring the star and preventing its direct detection.However, given the age of the system(∼200Myr),the possi-bility that it harbors a circumstellar disk substan-tial enough to produce2–3magnitudes of optical extinction(see§2.1)is highly unlikely,since such disks in T Tauri stars are known to dissipate after ∼10Myr(e.g.,Mamajek et al.2004,and refer-ences therein).The age and infrared excess also rule out the possibility that star Bc is a massive white dwarf.We are left with the hypothesis that it is instead a binary composed of late-type dwarfs, and we explore this here by attempting to model the infrared excess using theoretical isochrones.Even though the Yonsei-Yale isochrones used above reach masses as low as0.4M⊙,they are not specifically intended for the lower main-sequence and are thus not expected to reproduce the ra-diative properties of real M dwarfs as closely as needed for our purposes.Other series of mod-els are available that are designed for low-mass stars and incorporate a more realistic equation of state,more complete tables of molecular opacities, and non-grey boundary conditions,all of which have been shown to be critical for this regime (see,e.g.,Chabrier&Baraffe1997).In partic-ular,the Baraffe et al.(1998)models have been found to match the observed colors of late-type objects fairly well.However,they are not pub-licly available for the full range of stellar masses we require,and the range of metallicities available is also limited.Due to the latter restriction,we adopt in the following the solar composition for HD27638,which is well within the uncertainties of our determination in the previous section.At this metallicity,the best match to the magnitudes and temperatures of the three visible stars using the Yonsei-Yale models is240Myr,which is also within the errors and which we adopt hereafter. This solar-metallicity/240-Myr isochrone is shown with a solid line in Figure4,and is nearly indis-tinguishable from the Z=0.021/200-Myr model (dashed line)near the observations.A further complication for our modeling of the infrared excess has to do with the mixing length parameter,αML.The value adopted by Baraffe et al.(1998)for solar-type stars isαML=1.9,which is the bestfit to the properties of the Sun.This value is presumably also appropriate for stars Ba and Bb in HD27638,which are close to a solar mass.However,these models only reach as low as 0.6M⊙for thisαML,and may limit our predic-tions for Bc if the components are even smaller. For lower-mass stars Baraffe et al.(1998)adopt a different mixing length ofαML=1.0(with the rest of the physics in the models being the same), which has been found to give satisfactory results in modeling the colors of these objects even down to the brown dwarf regime,but does not repro-duce the properties of solar-type stars.There-fore,we proceeded as follows:Wefirst used an isochrone with the higher value ofαML to deter-mine the masses of stars Ba and Bb that provide the best match to their effective temperatures and absolute visual magnitudes.These masses and the corresponding infrared colors(which are similar to our previous results using the Yonsei-Yale models) were then heldfixed,and a Baraffe et al.(1998) isochrone with the same age and metallicity but withαML=1.0was used to explore which com-bination of masses for the individual components of Bc gives the best match to the observed val-ues of V−J,V−H,and V−K when adding also the light of Ba and Bb.The observed col-ors were converted to the CIT system of Elias et al.(1983)for consistency with the passbands of these isochrones,following Carpenter(2001).The masses of the Bc components are not completely arbitrary:their sum is constrained by the mass function in the outer orbit(see Table2),but de-pends also on the inclination angle of that orbit (i Bab−c).Therefore,we performed a grid search varying i Bab−c and q Bc(the mass ratio between the secondary and the primary of Bc)over wide ranges,seeking to reproduce the colors.The best match was found for i Bab−c=73◦±6◦and equal-mass stars(q Bc=1.0).The corresponding masses for the Bc components are0.70M⊙each.These parameters reproduce the combined near-infrared colors of HD27638B very well,as seen in the lowerpart of Table4.In Figure5we show a contour plotof theχ2surface corresponding to the twofittedvariables.The inferred visual brightness of eachstar in Bc is M V=7.87,which is about3.7magfainter than star Ba,and explains why neither wenor Tokovinin&Gorynya(2001)were able to de-tect them spectroscopically.The location of Bc inthe H-R diagram is shown in Figure4.5.Discussion and concluding remarksOur modeling of the infrared excess of HD27638B shows that the unseen and over-massivethird star is well explained as an equal-mass bi-nary composed of late-type stars of M≈0.70M⊙(spectral type approximately K4).As indicatedabove,the alignment of the major axes of the in-ner(Ba–Bb)and outer(Bab–Bc)orbits in thisqquadruple system as evidenced by the nearlyidentical longitudes of periastron is a sign thatdynamical interactions are at play.Our esti-mates of the inclination angles of the two or-bits(i Bab and i Bab−c)provide some informa-tion on the relative inclination angleφ,whichis of considerable dynamical importance.Thatangle is given by cosφ=cos i Bab cos i Bab−c+sin i Bab sin i Bab−c cos(ΩBab−ΩBab−c)(e.g.,Fekel1981).The position angles of the nodes(ΩBab andΩBab−c)are unknown,so we can only set limitsto cos(ΩBab−ΩBab−c)between−1and+1,whichleads to i Bab−c−i Bab≤φ≤i Bab−c+i Bab.A lowerlimit toφcan thus be placed atφmin=20◦±6◦,which appears to exclude coplanarity.With our estimates of i Bab and i Bab−c the to-tal mass of HD27638B is3.6M⊙.The angularsemimajor axis of the wide orbit in this system istherefore a=83.6mas,corresponding to6.86AU.Given the eccentricity and orientation of the orbit,the angular separation can be as large as90mas attimes.The combined brightness of the stars in Bcis expected to be approximately3.3mag fainterthan Ba+Bb in V,which should make it feasibleto resolve Bc,e.g.,by the speckle interferometrytechnique in the visible on a4-m class telescope.The brightness difference in the K band is evenmore favorable(∆K≈1.5mag)4.in Zelenchuk,Russia.The companion was not resolved:theresolution limit was90mas,and the predicted separationaccording to our orbit was about60mas.From the evidence presented here at leastfive components are known in the HD27638system. The B-type star itself has been examined for du-plicity by the lunar occultation technique(Meyer et al.1995)but was found to be unresolved.We note,however,that the Hipparcos Catalog lists the star as a‘suspected non-single’(ESA1997) based on the quality of the astrometric solution, although no convincing non-single star solution was found.The radial velocity measurements of HD27638A are too few in number and too poor in quality to be of much help in this regard.Thus, it is still possible that additional components are present,making this a very interesting multiple system.Thanks are due to J.Caruso,R.J.Davis,D.W.

The condensation of y-butyrolactone (I) with ethyl acetate (II) on treatment with EtONa (III) to give ~-acetyl-y-butyrolactone (IV) is taken as a basis for the production of 4-methyl-5-(B-hydroxyethyl)thiazole (a vitamin B: synthon) [2-5]. This reaction is known [5] to occur with the formation of the sodium enolate of IV (V), which is subsequently neutralized with the isolation of lactone IV (mixture of tautomers) [i, 6].

In this connection it was of interest to study the dynamics of distribution of the reaction products in relation to its process parameters for the purpose of controlling the course of the production process. The dependence of the yield of condensation products on the molar ratio of the reagents is shown in Fig. i. As can be seen from Fig. la, at a fixed concentration of [III]o and [I]o and an increase in the value of [II]o the maximum yield of IV is reached when [II]o is equal to 1.5-2.0 moles per mole of [I]o. Subsequent dilution of the substrate does not in fact lead to an increase in the yield of IV despite a slight increase in the conversion of I, which is due to side reactions that give VIII and IX. As the percentage fraction of [!I]o increases, naturally its degree of condensation to VI increases. It is worth noting that the yield of VII remains constant over the whole concentration range of [II]o (from 0.8 to 6.0 moles per mole of [I]o). Meanwhile, when a mixture of I and I l l is heated (100=C, 0.5 h) in the absence of II, VII is not formed. However, the presence

On the x-axls -- [II]o/[I]o (Fig. la), [III]o/[I]o (Fig. Ib), [H20]o/[Ill]o (molar) (Fig. ic)~ on the y-axis -yield of products (wt. %). of even catalytic quantities of II (0.05 mole per mole) leads to the formation of VII. It is significant that the addition of other carbonyl compounds such as acetone does not induce dimerization of I. The yield of condensation products also depends to a considerable degree on the concentration, of III (see Fig. ib). Thus, with an increase in concentration of [III]o at fixed values of [II]o and [I]o, the dependence curve for yield of IV relative to the value of [IIl]o passes through a maximum when [IIl]o is in excess -- 1.5 moles per mole of [I]o. A further increase of the fraction of [III]o to more than 1.5 moles per mole of [I]o leads to a decrease in the yield of IV. This phenomenon is probably due to the fact that as the content of [III]o increases, the yield of VI is increased and there is a simultaneous rise in the content of ethanol in the reaction mixture and as a result the rate of retrocondensation of IV increases. It is worth noting that with an increase in the value of [III]o the yield of VII-IX decrease, and for the latter product the maximum yield occurs when the concentration of [III]o is 0.5 moles per mole of [I]o. We have further found that there is a limiting dependence of the yield of IV and the other condensation products on the concentration of moisture in the substrate. It follows from Fig. ic that at a given temperature and concentration of reagents the dependence of the yield of IV and VII and also the conversion of I on the moisture content passes through a maximum corresponding to a water concentration of 0.02 moles per mole of [IIl]o. Excess moisture (more than 0.02 moles) leads to a decrease in yield of IV and VII and conversion of V. At the same time the yield of VI also decreases, but the side reactions giving VIII and IX are intensified. Hence, the catalytic addition of water apparently plays the role of activator for the ester condensation process by stabilizing the intermediates, the concentration of which determines both the rate of the main reaction and hence the selectivity of the process. The kinetic curves for formation of condensation products of I which are shown in Fig. 2 are of particular interest. In fact, as can be seen from Fig. 2a, in the system at 80~ equilibrium is reached after 1.5-2 h, although the main mass of condensation products is formed almost immediately, namely, the reaction appears to take place in two macrostages -the main mass of products is formed as the first stage, and at the second stage a slow approach to an equilibrium state occurs. When the temperature is raised (from 80 to 120~ the yield of IV and the conversion of I are increased and the duration of reaction (see Fig. 2b) is sharply reduced (from 2 h to 5-30 min), with the curve for the yield of IV, as for conversion of I, passing through a maximum (100~ at 30 min, I10~ at 15 min, 120~ at 3-5
