An apparatus is described for continuous measurements of movements of fish exposed to chemical substances in a tank. A strip chart recording provides information on position and rate of movement of the test specimen during the experiment.

An instrument for recording at a fixed station variations in three orthogonal components of the earth's magnetic field is described. The sensitive head, containing detectors of the saturated transformer type, can be operated out of doors at the end of a long cable. A strip-chart recording meter provides a visible record of the three d-c. output signals (1 volt = 100 gammas). Calibrated baseline controls permit biasing of the magnetic detectors for any location in Canada. Tests on 10 instruments indicate a noise level of 3 gammas and a maximum drift of 10 gammas in 10 hours.

Abstract We describe a method for direct potentiometric measurement of sweat chloride by use of a chloride-selective electrode, with strip-chart recording of the measurement to facilitate interpretation of the measurement. Comparison of this method and the Gibson and Cooke method [Pediatrics 23, 545 (1959)] gave a correlation coefficient of 0.86. Recording of the same test at various pressures showed that different pressures had little effect if they were kept constant.

SummaryA new fibrin plate technic for evaluating components of the fibrinolytic system has been developed. It provides quick, accurate, and easily interpreted results for the fibrinolytic profile. The standardized human plasminogen-free fibrin plates can be produced in bulk and stored for prolonged periods of time. A test specimen placed in a well punched in the buffered agarose gel diffuses into the agar and lyses the fibrin clot, forming a clear reaction zone. The zone diameter is directly proportional to the log of the percent concentration of available fibrinolytic enzyme in the specimen. The plates may be used to quantitate total plasminogen, and estimate available plasmin and active plasmin. A good correlation between results obtained using these fibrin plates and caseinolytic methods was found. Performance and interpretation of tests of fibrinolysis done on these new fibrin plates indicate that it may be the most sensitive technic available for clinical laboratory work.
