Blotting methods applied to investigations of the mitogenic activity of phytohaemagglutinin (PHA).

PHA polypeptides were separated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and transferred to nitrocellulose filters which were then cut into identical discs and used to perform blastogenic stimulation on cultured human peripheral blood lymphocytes. This method offers the following advantages: the high resolution of SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the sensitive immunochemical identification of the polypeptides involved in the mitogenic responses of lymphocytes, the determination in the same experiment of the molecular weight, antigenicity and biological activities of the proteins.

Simultaneous facelift and carbon dioxide laser resurfacing: a safe technique?

A modified facelifting technique with simultaneous carbon dioxide laser resurfacing makes for improved quality of the overlying skin, which enhances the effect of repositioning of the deep facial structures. Concerns have been expressed with regard to complications which may occur when this approach to facelifting is used. This paper presents guidelines which, if observed, allow this procedure to be performed safely in terms of laser skin injury. Over 100 patients have been treated using this combined technique, frequently with the addition of further ancillary procedures. Patient follow-up ranged from 1 to 36 months and showed none of the feared complications to have occurred. This combined approach has improved the results achieved previously by either technique used on its own. In addition, it saves time for both patient and surgeon, and apart from redness, the postoperative recovery period is similar. This technique requires patient education and a postoperative team effort by surgeon, nurse, and aesthetician. Experience has shown that this is a safe procedure which can produce good results with the proper pre- and postoperative management.
