[Reactogenicity of a group A and C meningococcal polysaccharide bivalent vaccine].

A total of 1 968 persons aged 18-20 years belonging to organized groups were immunized with different doses of polysaccharide meningococcal divaccine, groups A and C, by means of syringes and jet injectors under the conditions of a controlled epidemiological trial. Systemic reactions to the injection of the preparation were found to be absent. Local reactions manifested by inflammation, swelling and tenderness at the site of injection were faintly pronounced and disappeared in 48 hours, which is indicative of low reactogenicity of the preparation under study.

Bivalent cation and ATP requirements of endonucleases from rat liver nuclei.

The distribution of different types of DNase in rat liver nuclei was determined after a purification procedure involving ion exchange chromatography and gel filtration. As major enzymes Ca2+, Mg2+-dependent endonuclease, Mn2+-dependent endonuclease and an acid endonuclease were identified, sharing 60, 20 and 10% of the total activity, respectively. Mn2+-dependent endonuclease is a novel enzyme with a molecular mass of 30 +/- 5 kilodaltons. The synergistic effect of Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions for the Mn2+-dependent enzyme was lower by an order of magnitude than that of the Ca2+ and Mg2+-dependent endonuclease. The Ca2+ and Mg2+-dependent nuclease activity represents a heterogeneous population of enzymes. One of the cation dependent enzymes (Mr 25 +/- 5 kD) is stimulated by ATP the ATP optimum being 0.1 mM and the Mg2+ requirement 1 mM. The ATP-dependent endonuclease belongs to the minor endonucleases separable from the major ones.

Bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy of bivalent and trivalent iron preparations.

The bioavailability of iron on Fe(III)-hydroxide-polymaltose complex was compared intraindividually with that of Fe (II)-ascorbate (iron absorption) and a Fe (II)-sulphate quick release preparation (haemoglobin regeneration test). The study was carried out in a population of 16 healthy male volunteers, phlebotomized in weekly intervals until development of an iron deficiency anaemia in order to establish a test population with only small variations of their individual body iron status. Intestinal iron absorption in fasting state as measured by 59Fe whole body retention and simultaneous estimation from plasma iron tolerance curves was low for the 59Fe (III)-complex (1.2 +/- 0.1% (means +/- SD] as compared to the 59Fe (II)-ascorbate (43.7 +/- 7.1% (means +/- SD]. Iron administration together with a test meal did not affect the absorption from the 59Fe (II)-ascorbate, whereas the 59Fe (III)-complex showed a significant increase in absorption (8.8 +/- 4.7% (means +/- SD]. Haemoglobin (Hb) regeneration after 100 mg of iron as Fe (III)-complex and Fe (II)-sulphate administered during 28 days with meals amounted to a mean of 0.68 +/- 0.2 g/l and 1.1 +/- 0.3 g/l (means +/- SD) of total daily Hb-increase and a net-Hb-increase of 0.31 +/- 0.37 g/l and 0.79 +/- 0.36 g/l (means +/- SD), respectively. There was also a small but significant rise in serum ferritin during the oral treatment in both treatment groups. The results of Hb-regeneration after treatment with the Fe (III)-complex were in the range which could be expected from the absorption measurements.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

[Action of bivalent cations on the alkaline phosphatase activity of intestinal microvilli. Influence of pH and substrate].

At alkaline or neutral pH and with PNPP or ATP as substrates, the effect of cations on alkaline phosphatase of jejunal microvilli was shown to differ, i.e. Mg++ had an activating effect at high concentrations, Zn++ slightly inhibiting, Ca++ and Co++ were inactive at all concentrations. At neutral pH with PNPP as a substrate, Mg++ and Co++ were active, Ca++ inactive and Zn++ slightly inhibiting at high concentrations. Using ATP as a substrate, all four cations were activators at all concentrations studied (0.2 to 5 mM). In the latter physiological conditions (pH and substrate), similar effects of the cations were observed with microvilli from other segments of rat small intestine.
