Advantages of long-acting local anesthesia using etidocaine hydrochloride.

A double-blind clinical evaluation comparing 1% etidocaine with 1/200,000 epinephrine and 2% lidocaine with 1/100,000 epinephrine for third molar surgery was done on 42 patients. Aspects of long-acting and short-acting local anesthesia were compared, including time of onset, potency, regression, duration, and appraisal by the patient. The preference of patients and the experience of postoperative pain are emphasized.

Determination of 5-dimethylaminonaphthalene-1-sulfonyl derivatives of urinary polyamines by ion-pair high-performance liquid chromatography.

A sensitive and specific method for the determination of diamines and polyamines by ion-pair high-performance liquid chromatography is described. The 5-dimethylaminonaphthalene-1-sulfonyl derivatives of putrescine, 1,6-diaminohexane, spermidine and spermine are separated on a muBondapak C18 reversed-phase column with 1-heptanesulfonic acid and acetonitrile as the mobile phase. All compounds are eluted within 30 min using a programmed solvent gradient system. The method has a lower detection limit of 1 pmole on column. Because of the simplicity of the method, its application provides a better means for closely monitoring patients undergoing treatment for various types of genito-urinary neoplastic diseases.
