13. Effect of substrate on metabolite production of Alternaria alternata.
Alternariol and alternariol monomethyl ether are commonly associated with weathered grain sorghum. Production of these metabolites and altenuene by isolates of Alternaria alternata was evaluated on various sterile grain substrates. At 35% moisture content and 25 C, metabolite yields were highest on rice, intermediate on sorghums, and lowest on wheat and yell

14. Clinicians' satisfaction with Grateful Med: an exploratory study.
End-user search software is designed to simplify online searching for the casual searcher. User-friendly features provide relatively easy online access to remote databases without the need for expert search systems. At issue is whether the simplified features of such software compromise what is potentially retrievable, and if so, whether the missing informat

15. Rapid recognition of group B streptococci by pigment production and counterimmunoelectrophoresis.
Streptococci from clinical isolates were studied for their ability to produce pigment in stab cultures in Columbia agar. Serological grouping of these organisms was done by counterimmunoelectrophoresis using Burroughs-Wellcome antisera. In this group of isolates, 66 of the 68 organisms grouped as B by serological testing produced pigment in the Columbia agar

16. Efficacy and Safety of Topical Lysostaphin Treatment of Persistent Nasal Carriage of Staphylococcus aureus
The efficacy of lysostaphin nasal spray and Neosporin ointment (Burroughs Wellcome & Co.) in altering nasal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus was studied with persistent carriers in an institution for mentally retarded children and adults. Treatment for 5 days with either agent significantly reduced carriage rates. This effect persisted through the 5th day a

17. Biochemical mechanisms of the antileishmanial activity of sodium stibogluconate.
Pentavalent antimonial agents such as sodium stibogluconate (Pentostam; Burroughs Wellcome Co., London, United Kingdom) are the drugs of choice for the treatment of leishmaniasis, but their biochemical mechanisms of action are virtually unknown. The viability of Leishmania mexicana (WR 227) promastigotes and amastigotes was decreased 40 to 61% by a 4-h expos

18. Multiple proteases in foot-and-mouth disease virus replication.
Translation of foot-and-mouth disease virus RNA in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate for short time intervals resulted in the production of the peptides P20a , P16, and P88 (Lab, Lb, and P1) (R. R. Rueckert , Recommendations of the 3rd European Study Group on Molecular Biology of Picornavirus, Urbino , Italy, 1983). If further translation was prevented, the struc

19. A structure-activity relationship for induction of meningeal inflammation by muramyl peptides.
Components of bacterial peptidoglycans have potent biological activities, including adjuvant effects, cytotoxicity, and induction of sleep. Mixtures of peptidoglycan components also induce inflammation in the lung, subarachnoid space, and joint, but the structural requirements for activity are unknown. Using a rabbit model for meningitis, we determined the b

20. Human Pharmacokinetics of BL-P1654 Compared with Ampicillin
BL-P1654 is a new ureido-penicillin which has significant activity against both pseudomonas and klebsiella. Its pharmacokinetics were evaluated in five studies in four healthy adult male volunteers after 1-g doses given as: 5- and 30-min intravenous infusions, a 30-min infusion 1 h after the oral administration of 1 g of probenecid, and an intramuscular inje

21. Oesophageal and gastric cancer pathology reporting: a regional audit.
AIM: To audit the information content of pathology reports of oesophageal and gastric cancer resection specimens in Wales. METHODS: All such reports from the 16 NHS histopathology laboratories in Wales in a one year period were evaluated for their information content. Two standards were used: (1) best practice reporting, and (2) a minimum dataset required fo

22. Regional chemotherapy for melanoma. A 35-year experience.
OBJECTIVE: The authors present their 35-year experience with intra-arterial chemotherapeutic regional perfusion of 1139 patients with melanomas, using an extracorporeal oxygenated circuit and heart-lung apparatus. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Intra-arterial chemotherapy produces improved responses in many tumors. By isolating and sustaining the area with extraco

23. Diagnostic efficacy of two rapid tests for detection of respiratory syncytial virus antigen.
With the availability of ribavirin therapy for serious respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections, rapid diagnostic tests for the detection of RSV antigen are increasingly important. Efficacies of a commercially available enzyme immunoassay (EIA) (Abbott Laboratories, North Chicago, Ill.) and a fluorescent-antibody assay (FA) were evaluated in a study invo

24. Development of a Fluorescence Polarization-Based Diagnostic Assay for Equine Infectious Anemia Virus
The control of equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) infections of horses has been over the past 20 years based primarily on the identification and elimination of seropositive horses, predominantly by a standardized agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) assay in centralized reference laboratories. This screening for EIAV-seropositive horses has been to date hinder
