Neonatal meningitis caused by Flavobacterium meningosepticum type F.
Two infants, one premature and one full-term, died from meningitis due to Flav. meningosepticum type F. Careful bacteriological studies are required to prevent possible confusion with other Gram-negative bacilli which may cause meningitis in this age group.

Cost effectiveness of laboratory instrument/computer interface.
A method for determining when, and for which laboratory instruments, direct interfacing with a computer is cost-effective is presented. Differences between automatic and manual inputting of laboratory test results are discussed, and costs and benefits of on-line instrumentation are analyzed. A complete theoretical model for analyzing projected benefits is described, along with a simplified version based on estimates of the time involved for both manual and automated systems.

Neutron fluence and kerma spectra of a p(66)/Be(40) clinical source.
High-resolution neutron fluence spectra have been measured in the National Accelerator Centre's p(66)/Be(40) neutron therapy beam by the pulsed-beam time-of-flight method. ICRU muscle kerma spectra have been derived from the fluence spectra. Spectral changes resulting from different irradiation conditions have been quantified in terms of the average neutron energy and the fractional low-energy (< 16 MeV) contribution. The changes observed with different thicknesses of polyethylene filtration are consistent with changes in quality parameters determined in biological and microdosimetric experiments. The dosimetry parameters (KtissueA150) N and (Wgas) N calculated for the measured spectra agree with the values recommended in the neutron dosimetry protocol. The shapes of the present fluence spectra differ from previous measurements of p(> 40)/Be spectra. In particular, they differ significantly from the spectrum measured by recoil techniques in an identical neutron therapy unit at the Clatterbridge Hospital, UK. The reasons for the difference are not known.
