[A new method for technical synthesis of tertiary and quaternary d,1-tropic acid esters of some N-subsituted nortropan- and granatan-3-oles (author's transl)].

A new technically feasible method for synthesizing atropine is described. This method can also be applied to N-substituted nortropan- and granatan-3-oles. The quaternization of these basic tropic acid ester yields new substances which have a pharmacological profile different from that of atropine. The stereoselectivity of the quanternization reaction is discussed.

[Cine-angiographic determination of ventricular volumes with the help of a computer (author's transl)].

A computerised method of determining ventricular volumes from cine-angiograms in two planes was developed. The heart is divided into a large number of sections by computer analysis, the volumes being obtained from the corresponding diameters in the two planes. Using a computer markedly facilitates calculations and the results are immediately available. Data for ventricular and stroke volumes agree well with those reported in the literature.

Ascorbic acid changes in cultured rabbit lenses after microwave irradiation.

Whole body exposure of rabbits to microwave radiation causes a decrease in ascorbic acid in the lens. In our study, rabbit lenses maintained in culture medium (37 degrees C) were exposed to either pulsed or continuous wave S-band radiation for 10-15 min at power densities between 0 and 200 mW/cm-2. Total ascorbic acid was measured in selected lenses 1-3 days after irradiation. The temperature of the culture medium was measured during irradiation. Matched control lenses were exposed to similar time-temperature environments, but without microwave irradiation. Ascorbic acid decreased significantly in lenses exposed to microwave radiation. No differences were found, however, between irradiated and control lenses subjected to identical time-temperature conditions. At a given average power density, the time-temperature variation was independent of modulation. A decrease in ascorbic acid is apparently a direct thermal effect of microwave radiation in rabbit lens culture.
