Was Anopheles donaldi a vector of malaria in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in the past?

Anopheles donaldi Reid, a member of the A. barbirostris species group, is a vector of human filariasis and probably malaria. The discovery of some old specimens of this species, collected in Kuala Lumpur town where it no longer occurs, together with evidence from the literature about past malaria in the town, suggest that donaldi may have played a part in transmitting that malaria.

Selective inhibition of the monosynaptic spinal reflex by a series of hydroxylated alkylaminoindans.

5-Hydroxy-2-piperidino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindan (5) and a number of related tetrahydro and dihydro compounds were prepared by selective mono- and dihydroxylation of the dihydro products from the Birch reduction of various alkylaminoalkylindans, tetralins, benzenes, and isoindolines. Some of these compounds showed a remarkably selective inhibition of monosynatpic spinal reflex in the segmental cat preparation.

A simple device for testing the accuracy of x-ray timers.

A simple device for testing the accuracy of x-ray timers uses a portable record player whose turntable spins the film cassette beneath the lid on which lead shielding protects the film except for a tiny pin-hole through which the exposures are made. Multiple exposures of different times of the reproducibility of one time setting can all be made on one film.
