Seven healthy male volunteers received 6.6 plus or minus 0.5 (SE) per cent-hours of halothane-oxygen anesthesia without surgery. Serum bromide concentrations increased from 0.6 plus or minus 0.1 ...before anesthesia to 2.9 plus or minus 0.2 mEq/l on the second day after anesthesia. On the ninth day serum bromide was still elevated to 2.5 plus or minus 0.1 mEq/l. These bromide concentrations represent psychoactive levels and may account for previously recognized prolonged changes in mood and intellectual function after halothane. Plasma and urinary fluoride concentrations did not increase significantly.
We pursued the goal of obtaining global information on cDNA libraries from lymphocytes by combining data on the genes with data on the expressed proteins. Ordered libraries enabled us to establish ...the properties of the clones by direct retrieval of individual clones from the matrix (in our system a 24 x 16 x 12 array). We have picked-upon inspection of radiofluorographs obtained from the pools of the library--39 clones and performed a 2D gel analysis on the cell free expressed clonal products and have established also their partial nucleotide sequences. Details on two such clones are reported; clone CEM1001 is a new gene, while clone CEM1002 is a gene for human elongation factor 1-beta.
In this article, we discuss the different types of up-to-date tools available to understand multimedia and its applications, imaging manipulation, digital video, and new approaches to surgical ...planning, digital dynamic radiography, and patient education aided by digital technology.
