A glucose-specific test paper which is sufficiently sensitive to react with the small amounts of glucose present in urine from normal persons in the fasting state can be used to discriminate between urine samples containing more than and those containing less than 1 to 1.5 mg of glucose per 100 ml of urine. This provides a screening method for significant bacteriuria in an apparently healthy population since urine samples, obtained under standardized conditions from subjects in the fasting state with such bacteriuria, contain either very little or no glucose.From the departments of clinical chemistry (Dr. Scherst\l=e'\n),
A study is presented in which the inhibiting effects of EACA, PAMBA, AMCA and AMBOCA on fibrinolysis induced by three activators have been compared by a clot lysis method. The order of inhibitory potency was AMBOCA > AMCA > PAMBA > EACA. The activity ratios obtained were found to be influenced by the level of inhibition. At low levels of inhibition the differences between the inhibitory activities are usually more pronounced than at high levels. The degree of inhibition is dependent on the fibrinolytic activator used. The order of sensitivity to the inhibitors was, within the analytical conditions used, found to be: tissue activator > streptokinase > urokinase. The results are discussed in comparison to the different activity ratios reported by others.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
