SummaryUsing the ability to sporulate as a measure of viability, the effects of exposure of unsporulated oocysts of 10 species of coccidia of chickens, rabbits and cattle to saturated NaCl solution has been studied. Although appreciable deformation and collapse of the oocyst occurred after 1–2 days contact, the effect was reversible after washing free from salt and incubating. Some reduction in ability to sporulate following several days contact with saturated salt was noted in most species, although no effect was seen with Eimeria stiedai following 7 days exposure, Eimeria tenella was one of the more sensitive species studied. Culture titration experiments in chickens with E. tenella indicated that oocysts which had sporulated following prolonged exposure to salt were in no way inferior in virulence or ability to retain virulence on prolonged storage to oocysts prepared with minimal contact with salt. No evidence was obtained to contra-indicate the use of salt-flotation methods for the separation of oocysts from faeces.

Art of embalming as practised by Egyptian about 3000 years ago transformed into embalming science of modern ages with the use of formaldehyde as a preservative solution. Subsequently, the search for ideal embalming preservative solution continues to date because of the health hazards related to formaldehyde preservation of cadavers. Alternative preservative methods and solutions suitable for making different skill training models with the specific requirement of pliability have also experimented. The literature had documented various solutions like Thiel’s solution and technique, phenoxyethanol preservation, saturated sodium chloride solution, cryopreservation, N-Vinyl-2-pyrrolidone, Ethanol–glycerin and Fix 4life solution as alternatives to formaldehyde preservation. This review is an attempt to have an overview comparison of all the recent alternate embalming methods applicable for developing skill training cadaveric models with an aim of reducing formaldehyde usage in preservation.

Abstract Residue analysis of the herbicide prometryn (2,4-bis(isopropylamino)- 6-methylthio-l,3,5-triazine) is widely known, but an analytical method for determining its metabolities or degradation products in addition to the parent chemical has not yet been reported in the literature. The procedure reported here is for the extraction and determination of prometryn and 2 metabolites, 2-amino-4-isopropylamino-6-methylthio- l,3,5-triazine and 2,4-diamino-6-methylthio-l,3,5-triazine, in parsley. Crops were extracted with 2-propanol followed by concentration of the extract and partitioning with a minimum amount of hexane in the presence of a large excess of water to remove most of the green pigment. The aqueous phase was divided into 2 equal halves: (A) Onehalf portion was partitioned with dichloromethane in the presence of saturated sodium chloride solution, the dichloromethane phase was separated, and the aqueous phase was discarded. The organic solvent was evaporated, and the contents were reconstituted in petroleum ether before prometryn analysis. (B) The other half was made slightly alkaline with ammonium hydroxide solution and was partitioned with ethyl acetate in the presence of saturated sodium chloride solution. The ethyl acetate phase was concentrated, centrifuged to remove any turbidity, and analyzed for the 2 metabolities above. Fused silica capillary gas chromatography (GC) with nitrogen-phosphorus (N-P) detection was used for quantitation. The limit of detection was 0.05 mg/kg for all the compounds examined. Recoveries from fortified parsley samples ranged from 59 to 73% at fortification levels of 0.05 to 1.0 mg/kg.

Background: Hypertonic solution is used to combat hypotension in sub-arachnoid block during trans urethral resection of prostate. Aims and objectives: To compare the effect of 3% sodium chloride solution with that of 0.9% sodium chloride solution, to combat sub-arachnoid block induced hypotension in trans urethral resection of prostate. Methods: A total number of sixty patients ASA grade I & II were selected randomly in two groups , thirty in each group. Group A received 15ml/kg of 0.9% NaCl solution and group B 4ml/kg of 3% NaCl solution as a preload. Sub arachnoid block performed at the L3/4 interspace in the sitting position. Heart rate, mean arterial pressure, amount of ephedrine, amount of used additional I/V normal saline, serum electrolytes and level of sensory block were observed. Results: Mean arterial pressure was differed significantly at late hours ie, 50min, 60min (P<0.001). Incidence of hypotension was 43% in group A, 16% in group B and was significant (p<0.05). Less additional I/V fluid was required in group B and difference was significant (P<0.05). Low doses of ephedrine was needed in group B and was highly significant (P<0.001). Conclusion: Preloading of hypertonic solution is superior to isotonic solution in trans urethral resection of prostate under sub arachnoid block.

Purpose – The purpose of this work was to study the cracking susceptibility of a 7017 aluminium alloy, after anodising under various conditions. Design/methodology/approach – Slow strain tests in dry air, laboratory air and sodium chloride solution were employed. Anodic oxide films were produced with various applied current densities and thicknesses, in horizontal or vertical orientation of the coatings, at the free corrosion potential and also at various anodic or cathodic potentials. For the interpretation of the results, a metallographic study of the specimens before and after straining to failure was carried out using a scanning electron microscope. Findings – The behaviour of anodic coatings was found to depend very much on the anodising conditions. The coatings reduced the ductility of the alloy in dry air but can actually increase the ductility in laboratory air and in 3.5 per cent sodium chloride solution. In most cases, the ductility of coated specimens was greater in 3.5 per cent NaCl solution than in dry air, possibly due to crack blunting by the aggressive environment. Anodic coatings moved the free corrosion potential of the alloy in the noble direction and both the anodised and the bare alloy generally suffered a reduction in ductility at potentials anodic or cathodic to the free corrosion potential, the fall being more rapid for the anodised alloy. Research limitations/implications – The mechanism causing the increased ductility of coated specimens in 3.5 per cent NaCl solution than in dry air remains yet to be confirmed. Practical implications – The selection of suitable anodic coatings for the protection of aluminium alloys against stress corrosion cracking depends on the anodising conditions. Originality/value – The paper provides information regarding the influence of anodising conditions on the anticorrosive properties of electrolytically prepared anodic coatings on aluminium alloys.
