Immunoglobulins in tears of normal Indian people.

Immunoglobulin concentrations in tears from 50 healthy Indians aged from 14 to 50 years were measured by a standard immunodiffusion method. The levels of IgA were substantial; those of IgG were very low; and IgD and IgM were not present. The mean IgA level was 24-6 mg/100 ml.

Aspects of obstetrical defibrination in West Malaysia.

Five patients illustrate various aspects of obstetrical defibrination in West Malaysia, resulting from exaggeration of changes in fibrinolytic-coagulation equilibrium that occur at delivery. Hypofibrinogenaemia and fibrinolysis may occur in association or either feature predominate. These patients are from a population in which a variety of genetic and environmental factors may interact, e.g. abnormal haemoglobins, cold agglutinins, viral and other infections, introducing additional complications.

Lactic acid in human aqueous humour.

We wished to assess the contribution of the lens to the maintenance of the high level of lactic acid found in human aqueous humour. The lactic acid in aqueous humour was estimated by Pryce's modification of the Barker-Summerson method in 41 subjects who were divided into four groups: those with early cataract, those with advanced nuclear cataract, those with mature cataract and those with hypermature (morgagnian type) cataract. Statistical evaluation of the results showed that there was no significant difference in the lactic acid level between the four groups. We assume that the lens does not contribute significantly to the high concentration of lactate found in human aqueous humour.
