Patients and methods In the STRIDA project, blood and urine samples are collected from intoxicated patients with admitted or suspected intake of NPS or unknown drugs presenting to hospitals over the country. Analysis of NPS is performed by mass spectrometry multicomponent methods. Clinical data are collected when caregivers consult the Swedish Poisons Information Centre Current Awareness in Clinical Toxicology is produced monthly for the American Academy of Clinical Toxicology by the Birmingham Unit of the UK National Poisons Information Service, with contributions from the Cardiff, Edinburgh, and Newcastle Units.

Monitoring and source apportionment of hyphil-TrOCs in urban stormwater is complicated by the vast number and sources of organic contaminants and the high variability in aqueous concentration over time and space.

Minto, Director ________________________________ John R. Grunwell, Reader ________________________________ John F. Sebastian, Reader ________________________________ Ann E. Hagerman, Reader ________________________________ Richard E. Lee, Graduate School Representative ABSTRACT INVESTIGATING THE BIOSYNTHESIS OF POLYACETYLENES: SYNTHESIS OF DEUTERATED LINOLEIC ACIDS & MECHANISM STUDIES OF DMDS ADDITION TO 1,4-ENYNES By Lizhi Zhu A wide range of polyacetylenic natural products possess antimicrobial, antitumor, and insecticidal properties. The biosyntheses of these natural products are widely distributed among fungi, algae, marine sponges, and higher plants. As details of the biosyntheses of these intriguing compounds remains scarce, it remains important to develop molecular probes and analytical methods to study polyacetylene secondary metabolism. An effective pathway to prepare selectively deuterium-labeled linoleic acids was developed. By this Pd-catalyzed method, deuterium can be easily introduced into the vinyl position providing deuterolinoleates with very high isotopic purity. This method also provides a general route for the construction of 1,4-diene derivatives with different chain lengths and 1,4-diene locations. Linoleic acid derivatives (12-d, 13-d and 16,16,17,17,18,18,18-d7) were synthesized according to this method. A stereoselective synthesis of methyl (14Z)- and (14E)-dehydrocrepenynate was achieved in five to six steps that employed Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions to construct the double bonds between C14 and C15. Compared with earlier methods, the improved syntheses are more convenient (no spinning band distillations or GLC separation of diastereomers were necessary) and higher Z/E ratios were obtained.

Received: 16 November 2004 / Accepted: 21 June 2005 / Published online: 19 July 2005 Ó Springer-Verlag 2005 Abstract Palatability of parasitic plants may be influ- Introduction enced by their host species, because the parasites take up nutrients and secondary compounds from the hosts. If Parasitic plants attack shoots or roots of other plants and parasitic plants acquired the full spectrum of secondary take up water, nutrients and solutes from the hosts by compounds from their host, one would expect a corre- means of specialized contact organs (haustoria, Kuijt lation between host and parasite palatability.

About 1% of all plants are parasitic and parasitic examined the palatability of leaves of the root-hemi- plants are common components of many plant commu- parasite Melampyrum arvense grown with different host nities (Molau 1995). The majority of parasitic plants are plants and the palatability of these host plants for two actually hemiparasites that have green leaves and are generalist herbivores, the caterpillar of Spodoptera lit- able to photosynthesize (Kuijt 1969). Parasitic plants can toralis and the slug Arion lusitanicus.
