[School medical findings in children of foreign workers].

A report on three investigations of the medical school-service on children from foreign countries is given. The foreign children are normally smaller than German children, but in relation to their stature more heavily built. Vaccination status and documentation are insufficient. Nevertheless, disturbances in organic functioning considered to be attributed to damages caused by our "society of civilization" are less prominent in foreign children. The necessary actions of improving the above mentioned situation are pointed out.

Kinetics of 42K and 86Rb loss from the crayfish retina in the dark and the effect of light on the rate of isotope loss.

86Rb and 42K loss from non-illuminated crayfish retinas is described by a sum of two exponential functions with rate constants lambda1 approximately 0.12 min-1 and lambda 2 approximately 0.006 min-1. 86Rb and 42K movements distinguish mainly by the lambda2 rate constants, lambda2Rb/lambda2K = 0.7. Oubain causes a delayed increase in the rate of isotope loss from non-illuminated retinas (lambda approximately 0.009 min-1 after 40 min). Light stimuli evoke a temporary increase in the rate of both 86Rb and 42K loss by the same factor (2.7 under these conditions). In the presence of ouabain the light-induced isotope loss is abolished after 40 min if the retina is periodically illuminated but not if the retina is kept in the dark.
