Echography of splenic infarct in a case of systemic lupus erythematosus.

A 29 year old female with systemic lupus erythematosus had a splenic infarct. The echogram showed a 4 x 4 x 5 cm cluster of echoes. After splenectomy the preoperative echograms were matched to the gross pathological findings and a post mortem water bath scan. In this single patient, the echosplenograms were of considerable aid in confirming the accuracy of the diagnosis of splenic infarct.

Characterization of aminoalkylphosphonyl cerebrosides in muscle tissue of Turbo cornutus.

From muscle tissues of the marine snail (Turbo cornutus) aminoalkylphosphonyl cerebrosides, which had been shown to be present in visceral parts were isolated. Their structure was determined by degradative methods and by characterization of components by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The aminoalkylphosphonyl cerebroside fraction consisted of a major portion of 1-O-[6'-O-(N-methylaminoethylphosphonyl) galactosyl] ceramide and a minor portion of a novel lipid, 1-O-[6'-O-(aminoethylphosphonyl)galactosyl] ceramide. The fatty acids of the fraction were mainly palmitic (53.3%) and 2-hydroxy palmitic acid (14.6%). The long chain bases were mainly dihydroxy C22: 2(36.6%), C18:1 (14.6%) and trihydroxy bases were also found as minor components.

Structural studies on glycolipid of shellfish. II. Occurrence of 3-O-methylgalactosamine in oyster glycolipid.

3-O-Methyl hexosamine was found for the first time and characterized as one of the sugar components of oyster glycolipid. The alditol acetate of this sugar was identified as 3-O-methyl-N-acetylgalactosaminitol acetate by comparing its retention time on gas chromatography and mass spectrum with those of the authentic sample synthesized in this laboratory. The new sugar, 3-O-methylgalactosamine, occupied the non-reducing terminal position of the carbohydrate moiety of the lipid and was linked to the penultimate hexose by a (1 leads to 3) bond.

Resistant level of houseflies to six kinds of synthetic insecticides in Malaysia.

The resistant level of the houseflies to six kinds of insecticides, DDT, Resmethrin, DDVP, Baytex, Sumithion and Diazinon, was examined on the seven strains collected in Malaysia. It was found that their susceptibility is rather higher than that of the Takatsuki strain which is a standard strain in Japan. However, their susceptibility to Sumithion was the same or slightly lower than that of the Takatsuki strain. The resistant level to five of six kinds of insecticides was the highest in the strain of Cameron Highland. The values were close to Singh's data in 1973, and this means that the resistance of the houseflies to the insecticides is increasing in Malaysia.

Resistant level of houseflies to seven kinds of synthetic insecticides and effect of synergists to the Malathion resistant strain in Singapore.

The resistant level of the houseflies to the seven kinds of insecticides, Malathion, Sumithion, Baytex, Diazinon, DDVP, DDT and Chrysron, was examined on the 3 strains collected in Singapore. It was found that most housefly colonies in Singapore showed a higher susceptibility to those insecticides than that of the Takatsuki strain of Japan, especially to DDT. However, the resistant level to Malathion was remarkably higher than that of the Takatsuki strain. The synergists, piperonyl butoxide, Safroxane and S-421, mixed with Malathion were effective for lowering the resistant level of the Malathion-resistant strain.
