The Mean

SummaryThe plasminogen content was determined by a casein method in plasma and serum from 20 normal volunteers. The mean plasminogen content was found to be 10.1 ACU (the arbitrary caseinolytic unit defined in such a way that using a 3% casein solution and a digestion time of 20 min. at 37°C, 10 ACU gave an extinction of 0.300). No difference between serum and plasma regarding the plasminogen content was found.Plasminogen was determined in drained and drained plus washed clots prepared from 2 ml plasma. The highest values found in the drained clots were 0.9 ACU/clot and 0.2 ACU/clot in the drained plus washed clots.Plasminogen was also determined in drained and drained plus washed clots prepared from plasma with added purified plasminogen. The plasminogen was recovered in the washing fluid. According to these tests, then, purified added plasminogen is washed out of the clots.The plasminogen content of 20 thrombi obtained post mortem was also determined. The mean value was found to be 0.7 ACU/cm thrombus. Judging from our results, the “intrinsic clot lysis theory” is not the main mechanism of clot dissolution.

Infusion Technique

Abstract Two methods for the determination of resistance to the outflow of cerebrospinal fluid, the bolus injection technique and the constant rate steady state infusion technique, were compared. Thirty-two patients with a variety of intracranial diseases (usually communicating hydrocephalus) were studied. There was a high degree of correlation between the resistance values obtained with the two methods, but values based on the bolus injection technique were systematically and statistically significantly lower than those obtained with the constant rate infusion test. From a practical point of view. both methods were found to be applicable in a clinical setting.

Phospholipid Ratio

Abstract A method is presented for the determination of cholesterol and phospholipid, which requires 5 µl. of human serum or 1-2 ml. of cerebrospinal fluids. With this method 5-100 µg. of cholesterol and phospholipid can be separated by a modified silicic acid column after elution of the mixture with 1 ml. of chloroform and 3 ml. of methanol. Recovery for 24.6 µg. of cholesterol and 30.5 µg. of phospholipid was 98.4 and 96.7%, respectively. Standard deviations of ± 1.73 and ± 1.24 have been obtained for the reproducibility of cholesterol and phospholipid determinations after chromatography. The method has been applied for the estimation of the cholesterol/phospholipid ratio and of lipid phosphorus in total phosphorus of human cerebrospinal fluids.
