Abstract
We have measured the ratio of prompt production rates of the charmonium states chi(c1) and chi(c2) in 110 pb(-1) of pp collisions at sqrt[s] = 1.8 TeV. The photon from their decay into J/psi(gamma) is reconstructed through conversion into e+e- pairs. The energy resolution this technique provides makes the resolution of the two states possible. We find the ratio of production cross sections sigma(chi(c2))/sigma(chi(c1)) = 0.96+/-0.27(stat)+/-0.11(syst) for events with pT(J/psi) > 4.0 GeV/c, /eta(J/psi)/ < 0.6, and pT(gamma) > 1.0 GeV/c.

Abstract
We present the first measurement of the ratio of branching fractions R identical withB(t-->Wb)/B(t-->Wq) from p_p collisions at sqrt[s] = 1.8 TeV. The data set corresponds to 109 pb(-1) of data recorded by the Collider Detector at Fermilab during the 1992-95 Tevatron run. We measure R = 0.94(+0.31)(-0.24)(stat+syst) or R>0.61 (0.56) at 90% (95)% C.L., in agreement with the standard model predictions. This measurement yields a limit on the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa quark mixing matrix element /V(tb)/ under the assumption of three generations and unitarity.

Abstract
We have measured the polarization of J/psi and psi(2S) mesons produced in pp collisions at sqrt[s] = 1.8 TeV, using data collected at the Collider Detector at Fermilab during 1992-1995. The polarization of promptly produced J/psi [psi(2S)] mesons is isolated from those produced in B-hadron decay, and measured over the kinematic range 4 [5.5]<P(T)<20 GeV/c and |y|<0.6. For P(T) greater than or approximately equal 12 GeV/c we do not observe significant polarization in the prompt component.

Abstract
We have searched for direct pair production of scalar top and scalar bottom quarks in 88 pb-1 of pp collisions at sqrt[s]=1.8 TeV with the CDF detector. We looked for events with a pair of heavy flavor jets and missing energy, consistent with scalar top (bottom) quark decays to a charm (bottom) quark and a neutralino. The numbers of events that pass our selections show no significant deviation from standard model expectations. We compare our results to the next-to-leading order scalar quark production cross sections to exclude regions in scalar quark-neutralino mass parameter space.

Abstract
We report the results of a search for a W' boson produced in pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.8 TeV using a 107 pb-1 data sample recorded by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. We consider the decay channel W'-->&munumu and search for anomalous production of high transverse mass munumu lepton pairs. We observe no excess of events above background and set limits on the rate of W' boson production and decay relative to standard model W boson production and decay using a fit of the transverse mass distribution observed. If we assume standard model strength couplings of the W' boson to quark and lepton pairs, we exclude a W' boson with invariant mass less than 660 GeV/c2 at 95% confidence level.

Abstract
An automatic DNA fragment collector using capillary array gel electrophoresis has been developed. A sheath flow technique is used for not only detection but also collection of DNA fragments. In a sheath flow cell, the DNA fragments separated by 16 capillaries flow independently into corresponding sampling capillaries. The fraction collector consists of 16 sampling trays and each sampling tray is set beneath each end of the sampling capillaries to collect the flow-through DNA fragments. Certain DNA fragments are automatically sorted by controlling the movement of the sampling trays according to the signals from the system. The collector experimentally separated two mixtures of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products: one prepared by using eight different sizes (base lengths from 161 to 562) of DNAs; and the other prepared by a differential display (DD) method with cDNA fragments. Collected DNA fragments are amplified by PCR and measured by electrophoresis. DNA fragments with base length differences of one (base lengths 363 and 364) were successfully separated. A separated DNA fragment from the DD sample was also successfully sequenced. In addition, differentially expressed DNA fragments were automatically sorted by comparative analysis, in which two similar cDNA fragment groups, labeled by two different fluorophores, respectively, were analyzed in the same gel-filled capillary. These results show that the automatic DNA fragment collector is useful for gene hunting in research fields such as drug discovery and DNA diagnostics.

Abstract
We have developed a simple and high-throughput capillary-array electrophoresis system that uses side-entry on-column laser irradiation. The number of capillaries in an array is generally limited by laser-power attenuation along the array due to reflection and divergence. We overcame these problems by placing the capillaries in water and adding glass rod lenses between the capillaries. As a result, up to 45 capillaries could be simultaneously irradiated with a single laser beam and the fluorescence from all the capillaries could be detected with high sensitivity. We demonstrated the high throughput of 12 kbp/h with a 45 capillary array using this system.

Abstract
We have developed a reliable method for eliminating base-mispair amplification in selective polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which is utilized for amplifying unknown sequence fragments produced by restriction enzyme reaction. The proposed procedure applies amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) with high fidelity. Selective PCR utilizes the known polymerase reaction characteristic that the complementary strand extension is strongly affected by matching a template with the 3'-terminus of the primers. However, false positive amplification is frequently observed because the specificity of terminal bases for discrimination of fragments (usually, 1-3 anchor sequences) is not enough to separate each fragment. A protocol for the selective PCR separation of every fragment was therefore investigated. A single-base mismatch was artificially introduced on the 4th base position from the 3' end of the primers to improve the hybridization specificity of anchored 2-bases at the 3' termini of primers. PCR reaction was carried out at 66 degrees C to prevent false positive amplification. The concentration of the primers having anchored-base sequences of AA, AT, TA, and TT must be three times larger than that of other primers because the Tm values for these sequences are lower than the others. As all the fragments can be separated into groups with high fidelity, the improved selective PCR will be applied to gene finding and analyzing differences on genome sequences based on AFLP.

Abstract
Detection of point mutations in genomic DNA is important for diagnosis of inherited characteristics and genetic diseases. A point mutation in a specific region of DNA amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) can be detected with single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis. Analysis of SSCP by laser-induced fluorescence capillary electrophoresis in entangled polymer solution (CE-LIF) has been developed in the present paper. K-ras genes including seven mutations were amplified with primer labeled with Texas Red at its 5' end. The labeled PCR products were dissociated to single strands by heating and separated with capillary gel electrophoresis and He-Ne laser-excited fluorescence detection. Our results suggest that all fragments having normal (Gly) and mutated (Ala, Arg, Cys, Ser, Val, Asp) sequences at codon 12 can be distinguished. Analysis of SSCPs with CE-LIF is well suited for clinical analysis of SSCPs because of its high sensitivity, resolution, reproducibility and speed.

Abstract
An improved method for DNA polymorphism typing of D1S80 VNTR locus and its application to paternity testing are described. For accurate estimation of the length of polymorphic DNA fragments, the size marker was labeled with fluorescence different from that of PCR primers, and co-electrophoresed as an internal standard. The dualcolour system of fluorescence image analyzer was used to detect the fragments and determine their size. This internal marker method could successfully overcome the problems of band pattern distortion and tailing, besides it allows easy and accurate interpretation of the DNA types. Our results indicate that the internal marker method is much more accurate than the method of using size marker in gel, even with the presence of distortion or tailing of the band patterns. Family studies applying this method showed complete agreement between the observed and predicted types.

Abstract
A new method for selecting and amplifying a single DNA fragment from a mixture is proposed. This method is applicable for the rapid classification of DNA fragments from a mixture and for preparation of sequencing templates. DNAs of several to tens of kilobases (kb) are digested with a four-base recognition restriction enzyme to produce smaller fragments. The complementary strand extension reactions are then carried out to produce fluorophore-labeled DNA fragments from the digestion products. These fragments can be rapidly classified according to their terminal-base sequences and their sizes are analyzed by capillary-array gel electrophoresis (CAGE). Electropherograms are used to characterize the fragments and to select polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers. Any fragment in a digestion mixture can be amplified by PCR with a pair of primers selected from a primer pool by referring to the electropherograms of the fragments. This method was successfully used to compare the electropherograms of two different DNA strands and to sequence a several-kb DNA fragment without subcloning. Combined with CAGE, this method could be used to dramatically simplify DNA fragment analysis.

Abstract
A DNA sequence can be rapidly and efficiently determined by digesting it into segments small enough to be sequenced at one time, then assembling them into contigs by searching for overlaps. Fragment walking achieves this without subcloning or preparing many kinds of primers; fragments obtained by digesting a template DNA are sequenced in parallel directly from the fragment mixture by using a set of 16 primers. Since the sequence adjacent to each cutting site is determined together with the fragment sequence, the contiguous fragment can be easily determined. The complete template DNA sequence can thus efficiently determined. The sequencing of pUC19 (2.7 kb) from both sides was done in one step by using only 15 fragments. The redundancy was only about 1.3, greatly reducing base-reading redundancy. Automating this strategy would increase the speed and efficiency of large-scale DNA sequencing.

Abstract
The optimization of electrophoretic conditions for fast separation of single stranded DNA by capillary gel electrophoresis was investigated. Mobilities and band broadening of the DNA fragments were measured for a 4% T, 5% C gel at 100-300 V/cm. The resolution of DNA peaks was evaluated for band spacing and band width. Band spacing decreased with increasing electric field strengths as well as DNA fragment size; resolution for large DNA fragments also decreased at higher electric field strengths. The measured mobilities in a 4% T, 5% C gel were analyzed by the reptation theory and compared with those in a 9% T, 0% C matrix. The reptation plots indicate that the onset of reptation in a 4% T, 5% C gel occurs at a DNA size of about 200 bases and about 150 bases in a 9% T, 0% C matrix. The 4% T, 5% C gel proved superior to the 9% T, 0% C matrix with respect to resolution and analysis time. The optimum electric field strength and migration distance for specific DNA fragment length (200, 400 and 700 bases) in the shortest time were calculated from band spacing and the measured band width for the 4% T, 5% C gel at Rs = 0.5. Under optimized conditions, analysis of DNA fragments up to 200, 400 and 700 bases could be carried out in about 5, 50, and 230 min, respectively.

Abstract
Temperature profiles of buffer-filled capillaries (capillary temperature), using both natural and forced air convection for cooling, were obtained both theoretically and experimentally in order to achieve stable capillary electrophoresis for accurate DNA sequencing analysis. The capillary temperature was calculated using the temperature dependency of the buffer resistivity, and the threshold values of the electric field and the capillary temperature for temperature instability were characterized. The capillary temperature became unstable at about 420 V/cm and at about 62 degrees C regardless of the outer diameter of the capillary; these values approximately coincide with the measured values obtained using a very thin thermocouple. The sets of values of electric field, air temperature, and air flow velocity in forced air cooling were obtained to keep the capillary temperature at the 40-60 degrees C needed for accurate DNA sequencing in a Tris-boric acid-EDTA buffer.

Abstract
A quantitative DNA probe assay process has been developed that uses exonuclease III. The fluorophore-labeled DNA probe is hybridized with specific sequences of the target DNA and then enzymatically digested. As these probe hybridization and digestion cycle reactions are repeated at a fixed temperature, digested probes (shortened probes) accumulate in the reaction mixture in a manner similar to a DNA polymerase chain reaction. Investigation of the digestion characteristics of the DNA probe showed that a slight digestion of a free single-stranded probe produces a large background signal, which results in low detection sensitivity. The digestion of single-stranded DNA probes is caused by double-stranded formations in the molecules. This digestion decreases and the double-stranded-specific digestion increases with increasing reaction temperature. When the reaction occurs at 45 degrees C, the association rate of the enzyme on the double-stranded DNA is 700 times faster than that on single-stranded DNA. This enables selective digestion of double-stranded DNA. The detection limit is 9 x 10(-19) mol for a M13-phage DNA.

Abstract
Silent myocardial ischemia occurring after acute myocardial infarction is classified as Cohn type II and has a frequency of 20-30% in all patients with acute myocardial infarction. Follow-up data of patients with either silent or anginal ischemia show a poor prognosis. Thus, all ischemic episodes occurring after myocardial infarction should be treated aggressively. Many multicenter studies have evaluated whether drug treatment can improve prognosis or protect from a nonfatal second attack. Calcium antagonists, especially those that increase heart rate, have not been considered as drugs of choice for this purpose, despite the many beneficial effects shown on myocardial tissue in experimental studies. In the study reported here, the effect of nisoldipine on postinfarction silent myocardial ischemia was evaluated by ambulatory left ventricular function monitoring. Ten patients were selected for study who showed silent myocardial ischemia after their first acute infarction. Blood pressure fell significantly (p < 0.05) after 4 weeks of treatment with nisoldipine (5-10 mg/day), but heart rate showed no change at rest. Exercise time improved (p < 0.05), with increased peak double products. During exercise, there was no significant change in end-diastolic volume but there was a marked improvement in end-systolic volume, and at the submaximal point the ejection fraction was significantly (p < 0.05) increased. Ejection fraction at rest also improved. The deterioration in ejection fraction due to dipyridamole was ameliorated by nisoldipine. Ejection fraction and blood pressure improved during the calculation test, and work performance also improved.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Clinical indicators and the incidence of sudden death among 1,000 consecutive patients (816 males and 184 females) with myocardial infarction were investigated between 1983 and 1987 after coronary arteriography. Twenty-four patients died suddenly during a study period of 3.3 +/- 2.0 yrs. The yearly incidence of sudden death calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method was 0.7%, nearly half of the incidence of cardiac death (1.5%/yr). Univariate analysis demonstrated statistically significant differences in the number of cases with coronary thrombolysis in the acute phase, degree of coronary artery stenosis, the frequency and degree of congestive heart failure and angina in the acute and chronic phase, the presence of serious post-infarction arrhythmia, ejection fraction, recurrent myocardial infarction, and administration of digitalis and diuretics. between the sudden-death group and the cardiac and other patient groups. There was also a tendency to higher frequency of history of diabetes mellitus, presence of acute mitral regurgitation, nitrates and nicorandil treatment, and coronary artery bypass graft in the sudden-death group. Multivariate analysis revealed that digitalis and nitrates treatment and left anterior descending artery involvement were major contributing factors. Re-infarction, left ventricular ejection fraction, and nicorandil therapy were not significant and minor contributing factors. The incidence of sudden death increased with digitalis therapy (Odds' ratio of 9.59), and left anterior descending artery disease, and decreased with nitrates (0.34).
