Detection and determination of cysteamine at the nanomole level.

Cysteamine determination is performed by using a coupled enzymatic system. The reaction product between cysteamine and bromopyruvate inhibits competitively and specifically D-amino acid oxidase activity. A reaction system allowing the quantitative assay of cysteamine at the nanomole level has been worked out. The standard curve is linear and the assay is useful in determining the cysteamine concentration in tissues and biological samples. The method is fast and of simple execution. The cysteamine concentration in several mammalian organs is also reported.

[Total body irradiation in the preparation of leukemic patients for bone marrow transplantation].

Total body irradiation is today the main conditioning method for patients who have bone marrow transplantation. The most diffuse procedure, as proposed at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center of Seattle, has been employed in this study. Our clinical material comprises 16 patients; 5 with acute lymphoid leukemia; 5 with acute myeloid leukemia; 4 with chronic myeloid leukemia in accelerated fase; and 2 in blastic crisis. Clinical results and toxicity are discussed, with emphasis to interstitial pneumonia.
