Hormesis is a biphasic concentration–response relationship. During the luminescence inhibition test ofVibrio qinghaiensissp.-Q67 (Q67), some organic solvents display the hormesis phenomenon.

SummaryA case of hypercoagulability syndrome in a 35 years old male is reported. An abnormal heparin resistance was found which could be defined by means of a heparin clot-inhibition test as a deficiency in heparin co-factor. The required anticoagulant doses of heparin were forty times as high as in cases with intact heparin co-factor. The factor seemed to be used up in the process of coagulation, as plasma, but not serum, was able to correct the deficiency in vitro. Plasma infusions were helpful for four days, but a complete recovery was achieved only after an intensive course of fever therapy.The phenomenon of blood clotting should be regarded as a dynamic process which is facilitated by an array of clot promoting factors and opposed by a system of natural anticoagulants.

SummaryThe plasmas of six patients with prolonged activated partial thromboplastin times were studied in detail. In five of the six, the Russell’s viper venom and prothrombin times were likewise prolonged. Five of the patients had documented systemic lupus erythematosus; one lacked the necessary criteria for this diagnosis. On quantitation, factor XI was decreased in all six; factors X and XII were diminished in five of the six. When tested for inhibitory activity, plasma from each of the patients prolonged the celite eluate inhibition test for factor XII and/or XI inhibition. In the formation of the Xa-V-phospholipid-Ca2+ complex (prothrombinase), factors X and Xa were inhibited to a greater degree than factor V or the phospholipid. Finally, each plasma was isofocused, the inhibitory fractions were identified and the clotting factor specificity of each inhibitory peak was determined.Fractions inhibitory against factors XI and XII isofocused with the IgG in each patient’s plasma. Based on the data presented from these six patients, the “lupus inhibitor” is in fact a heterogeneous collection of inhibitors directed against factors XII, XI and X rather than a homogeneous entity.

Dose Response Relationship

ABSTRACT The stimulating action of testosterone on the chick's comb can be inhibited by the subcutaneous injection of 0.1 mg of norethisterone or Ro 2-7239 (2-acetyl-7-oxo-1,2,3,4,4a,4b,5,6,7,9,10,10a-dodecahydrophenanthrene), 0.5 mg of cortisol or progesterone, and by 4.5 mg of Mer-25 (1-(p-2-diethylaminoethoxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-2-p-methoxyphenyl ethanol). No dose response relationship could be established. Norethisterone was the most active anti-androgen by this test.

Colour Complex

ABSTRACT A series of organic solvents and phenol derivatives have been examined for the extraction of the pink Kober-colour complex. Optimal results could be achieved for fluorimetry by a solution of 2 % (w/v) p-nitrophenol and 1 % (v/v) ethanol in acetylenetetrabromide, when the green mercury line (546 mμ was used as primary light. The sensitivity, stability and specificity have been improved, compared with the previously described reaction. By changing the sequence of purification steps and by reducing the volume of the urine sample (5 ml) the method for the determination of total oestrogens has been simplified. Approximately 10 determinations can be done within 3–4 hours by one person. Recovery experiments and comparative determinations with a previously described method have been carried out. The excretion of total oestrogens in a complete menstrual cycle is determined with the described method.
