The effect of concentration, vehicle and surfactant on the
absorption of benzocaine -³H across the rat's rectal mucosa was
investigated. Blood radioactivity levels were determined after the
application of benzociane -³H containing suppositories and ointments.
A wet oxidation method was used for sample digestion. Since the
radioactivity counted is the...
The stability of 1 3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea
(NSC 409962)(BCNU) was investigated in several buffered
aqueous media, in mixed solvent and in nonaqueous solvent
systems, and in the presence of several electrolytes and
nonelectrolytes. The degradation rate constant of BCNU in
these systems was calculated from the parameters of the
linear regression of...
The bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of theophylline
in rabbits were determined following both oral and
intravenous administration of the drug. Serum theophylline
concentrations were determined using high pressure
liquid chromatography. Pharmacokinetic parameters were
determined and verified by computer analysis. The overall
mean Beta disposition constant was 0.089 hr⁻¹ which corresponds
to...
Improved assay methods for determination of dyphylline levels in plasma, saliva, and urine utilizing high pressure liquid chromatography have been developed. Detection of levels as low as 25 ng/ml from 0.5 ml plasma and 50 ng/ml from 0.5 ml saliva were possible. Both procedures utilized the same extraction process. A...
The major objective of this study was to seek the reactions
of a group of supermarket managers as to what factors they felt were
necessary to a successful performance in their occupation.
One hundred eighty-four managers employed by a western-based
firm which operates stores in ten states returned questionnaires
rating...
Allowable stresses in compression perpendicular to the grain (C-perp) have been too conservative for most structural uses. This study develops stress data for deformations beyond the proportional limit (PL), up to 0.1 inch for hem-fir. Fifteen boards from four western states were cut into small specimens representing three ring angle...
