Erythrocyte adenosine transport a rapid screening test for cardiovascular drugs

Abstract We have devised a rapid screening test for use in detecting sickling hemoglobins. This test depends on the insolubility of sickling hemoglobins in 2.24 molar phosphate buffer. Sickling hemoglobins form a turbid suspension in this test, in which positive and negative results, respectively, appear very much like those for the "Sickledex" test.

Ammonium Compounds

Abstract A rapid screening test has been developed to determine killing dilutions of quaternary ammonium compounds. Two factors, Letheen broth as a quaternary ammonium compound neutralizer and triphenyltetrazolium chloride as a microbial growth indicator, resulted in a rapid test system for the evaluation of quaternary ammonium compounds. This rapid test system takes from 4 to 8 hr to complete as opposed to the 24 to 48 hr for other tests. A new germicide can be bacteriologically screened in one day.

Abstract The gravimetric analysis of total fecal fat by a proposed chloroform extraction procedure has been shown to compare very closely with an accepted procedure involving a petroleum ether extraction, at all levels of fecal fat. The decrease in the density of the chloroform by the fecal fat is used as a semiquantitative measure of fat concentration. This is accomplished by noting the bouyancy of the chloroform extract in sodium bromide solutions of the appropriate density. If the rapid screening test indicates a possible fecal fat level above the acceptable maximum, an aliquot of the same extract is then assayed gravimetrically.
