Impedance Aggregometry

SummaryThe aggregation/adhesion response to platelet activating factor (PAF) was studied in diluted whole blood by impedance aggregometry. The extent of aggregation varied directly with the interval between blood sampling and aggregation measurement over the first 30 minutes from sampling, then remained stable for the next 60 minutes of observation. This is an effect opposite to that described for aggregation to PAF in platelet rich plasma which, however, cannot be studied soon after sampling. Time dependence of aggregation is important and comparative measurements should be made during the period of stable aggregability.

Polarographic Current

A simple method for optimization of the minimum decay time, previous to the sampling time of the polarographic current, is described. The former should make compatible two requisites: it should be short enough for obtaining the maximum value of the faradaic current and long enough for the minimum or null value of the double layer decay current. The method is performed with the pulse polarograph only, without ancillary instruments, is fast and its accuracy is fairly comparable with earlier methods, which were more accurate but by far more involved to perform.

AbstractThe tryptophan to kynurenine ratio (Trp/Kyn) has been proposed as a cancer biomarker. Non-invasive topical sampling of Trp/Kyn can therefore serve as a promising concept for skin cancer diagnostics. By performing in vitro pig skin permeability studies, we conclude that non-invasive topical sampling of Trp and Kyn is feasible. We explore the influence of different experimental conditions, which are relevant for the clinical in vivo setting, such as pH variations, sampling time, and microbial degradation of Trp and Kyn. The permeabilities of Trp and Kyn are overall similar. However, the permeated Trp/Kyn ratio is generally higher than unity due to endogenous Trp, which should be taken into account to obtain a non-biased Trp/Kyn ratio accurately reflecting systemic concentrations. Additionally, prolonged sampling time is associated with bacterial Trp and Kyn degradation and should be considered in a clinical setting. Finally, the experimental results are supported by the four permeation pathways model, predicting that the hydrophilic Trp and Kyn molecules mainly permeate through lipid defects (i.e., the porous pathway). However, the hydrophobic indole ring of Trp is suggested to result in a small but noticeable relative increase of Trp diffusion via pathways across the SC lipid lamellae, while the shunt pathway is proposed to slightly favor permeation of Kyn relative to Trp.

Abstract Background Infectious Bovine Keratoconjunctivitis (IBK), commonly known as pinkeye, is one of the most significant diseases of beef cattle. As such, IBK costs the US beef industry at least 150 million annually. However, strategies to prevent IBK are limited, with most cases resulting in treatment with antibiotics once the disease has developed. Longitudinal studies evaluating establishment of the ocular microbiota may identify critical risk periods for IBK outbreaks or changes in the microbiota that may predispose animals to IBK. Results In an attempt to characterize the establishment and colonization patterns of the bovine ocular microbiota, we conducted a longitudinal study consisting of 227 calves and evaluated the microbiota composition over time using amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) based on 16S rRNA sequencing data and culture-based approaches. Beef calves on trial consisted of both male (intact) and females. Breeds were composed of purebred Angus and composites with varying percentages of Simmental, Angus, and Red Angus breeds. Average age at the start of the trial was 65 days ±15.02 and all calves remained nursing on their dam until weaning (day 139 of the study). The trial consisted of 139 days with four sampling time points on day 0, 21, 41, and 139. The experimental population received three different vaccination treatments (autogenous, commercial (both inactivated bacteria), and adjuvant placebo), to assess the effectiveness of different vaccines for IBK prevention. A significant change in bacterial community composition was observed across time periods sampled compared to the baseline (p < 0.001). However, no treatment effect of vaccine was detected within the ocular bacterial community. The bacterial community composition with the greatest time span between sampling time periods (98d span) was most similar to the baseline sample collected, suggesting re-establishment of the ocular microbiota to baseline levels over time after perturbation. The effect of IgA levels on the microbial community was investigated in a subset of cattle within the study. However, no significant effect of IgA was observed. Significant changes in the ocular microbiota were identified when comparing communities pre- and post-clinical signs of IBK. Additionally, dynamic changes in opportunistic pathogens Moraxella spp. were observed and confirmed using culture based methods. Conclusions Our results indicate that the bovine ocular microbiota is well represented by opportunistic pathogens such as Moraxella and Mycoplasma. Furthermore, this study characterizes the diversity of the ocular microbiota in calves and demonstrates the plasticity of the ocular microbiota to change. Additionally, we demonstrate the ocular microbiome in calves is similar between the eyes and the perturbation of one eye results in similar changes in the other eye. We also demonstrate the bovine ocular microbiota is slow to recover post perturbation and as a result provide opportunistic pathogens a chance to establish within the eye leading to IBK and other diseases. Characterizing the dynamic nature of the ocular microbiota provides novel opportunities to develop potential probiotic intervention to reduce IBK outbreaks in cattle.

In this study, the cerebral hemisphere content of calcium as well as selected parameters of oxidative metabolism and electrophysiological function were assessed in normoglycemic and hyperglycemic rats that were exposed to ischemia produced by electrocautery of the vertebral arteries and reversible occlusion of the carotid arteries. In hyperglycemic animals, 0.5 h of ischemia was associated with large accumulations of lactate (27 mmol/kg), whereas normoglycemic animals showed lesser lactate accumulation (17 mmol/kg). At this sampling time (0.5 h of ischemia), both groups of ischemic animals showed tissue calcium contents that were unchanged from preischemic control levels. In normoglycemic animals, release of the carotid clamps and recirculation for 1.5–24 h was associated with normalization of lactate, ATP and phosphocreatine, clinical behavior, and EEC During this 24 h of recirculation, cerebral calcium levels showed no changes. Hyperglycemic ischemic animals recirculated for 1.5–24 h showed a persistent lactic acidosis, depressed ATP and phosphocreatine, gross EEG abnormalities, seizures, and a high mortality rate. Again, during this 24 h period, cerebral calcium content showed no changes from preischemic control or from the matched saline-treated group. These data suggest that significant accumulation of calcium in brain tissue is not an early event in ischemic-hyperglycemic brain damage, and thus does not provide support for a role of calcium in the production of this form of ischemic damage.
