Schollz (D. m. W. No. 31, 29), on the basis of his many years of experience in the treatment of gonorrhea, indicates that Protargol and Albargin remain the best drugs to this day, because they act not only in a killing manner on gonococci, but also exert their influence on mucous membrane in the sense of its impregnation. In cases where gonococci sit deep in tissues (prostata, epididymis, ovaries), the author recommends using protein therapy. In stubborn cases, it is recommended to "Fieberbehandlung" with hot baths or inoculation with malaria. To establish the fact that gonorrhea has been cured, the author uses microscopic examination after a series of provocations, and also examines the patient with the help of cultures. An excellent means for establishing the cure of gonorrhea is the B.-G. reaction, and a negative reaction that occurred after the previous positive one is more likely to speak for a cure, while a persistent positive reaction indicates the need for a series of repeated microscopic and bacteriological studies.

The mantle-edge gland produces the highly tanned, densely fibrous periostracum, and the cubocolumnar cells contribute to the deposition of the less highly tanned matrix of the inner shell layers. The mantle-edge gland gives positive reactions for dopa oxidase and peroxidase, but does not contain melanin. The cubocolumnar cells reveal a positive reaction for dopa oxidase, possess numerous melanin granules, and exhibit a negative reaction for peroxidase. It is suggested that quinones may contribute to the process of tanning and hardening of the structural proteins of the shell. The dopa oxidase reaction within the cubocolumnar cells indicates the presence of tyrosine and suggests that these cells are capable of producing quinones to color and harden the protein component of the inner shell layers. It also explains the abundance of melanin granules within these cells. Within the mantle-edge gland, it is suggested that the peroxidase inhibits the formation of melanin from dopa quinone, and peroxidase, by accentuating quinone production, may cause further hardening of the periostracum.

Preventive services compose a large portion of primary care pediatrics, and pediatricians by their nature and training seem extraordinarily disposed toward clinical prevention. Therefore, when the first edition of the Guide to Clinical Preventive Services appeared in 1989 from the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), the negative reaction of the organized pediatric community was disappointing. The second edition of that guide has just been released, and we three pediatricians, who have worked hard during the past 5 years as members and staff of the second task force, hope for a far more positive reaction from our colleagues this time around.

Studies were carried out to natural papain inhibitor from papaya latex. Fresh latex from green fruits of Carica papaya was collected and immediately transported in ice bath to the lab, from which three fractions with inhibitor effect of esterase papain activity were isolated by latex dialysis, Sephadex G-25 gel filtration and ionic exchange chromatography in SP-Sephadex C-25. The isolated fractions, identified as inhibitors I and II, showed a negative reaction with ninhydrin; however, the fraction identified as P-III showed positive reaction with ninhydrin. Kinetics data showed non-competitive inhibition (inhibitor I) and uncompetitive (inhibitors II and P-III).

Glycogen proved to be absent in the malaria parasites (Plasmodium and Hepatocystis) by applying cytochemical methods; while in the piroplasms (Theileria and Babesia), and in Hepatozoon glycogen could be demonstrated by using the same methods. A strong positive reaction for polysaccharides was obtained in the residual masses of Hepatozoon sciuri, and H. balfouri; while a negative reaction was obtained in the residual mass of Plasmodium. A positive reaction for polysaccharides was obtained in the following structures: the wall of the oocysts of Plasmodium, the gametocyte capsules of Hepatozoon sciuri and Hepatozoon sp., the sporoblast capsule of H. sciuri, and the polar areas of the gametocyte of H. balfouri.

Already with a microscopic examination of the cut out bristles of the fallopian tubes, we notice that sometimes the mucous membrane is more changed, another muscle or only the peritoneal cover, sometimes all three layers of it are equally changed; The contents of these brushes are also very diverse, which is transparent like water and poor lumps, serous with an abundant amount of lumps, stained with blood, pure bloody, in various degrees of suppuration or decomposition, liquid or thick, curdled lime or sedimentary. Because of these data, it is impossible to describe all these conditions under one common name "cysts of fallopian tubes" and it has long been customary by the nature of the contents to divide these cysts into hydro, -hmato- and pyosalpinx; but even such a definition is not enough, since it does not indicate either the ethology or the pathological anatomy of these changes, therefore, when describing these brushes, attention should be paid to both the reasons for the formation of various accumulations of fluid, as well as the mechanism of formation of these brushes, stnkakh pipes and their pathological and anatomical consequences.

The author notes the identity of the picture of warts on the oral mucosa with syphilitic papules so often observed here. The ease of confusion of these two diseases makes it necessary to pay special attention to the differential diagnosis, supporting it with microscopic examination.

Having subjected the mucosa of the isthmus (formerly the lower segment of the uterus) to careful macro- and microscopic examination in several cases in which the uterus was extirpated before menses, on the first day of the regulae and one day after their beginning, Nrnberger was convinced that this mucosa does not take part in menstruation.


The author states that, in 1839, his attention was first directed to the organ of taste on discovering the peculiar advantages for microscopic examination which are offered by the tongue of the living frog. When prepared in the manner he describes, it is much more transparent than the web of the foot; and its papillae, mucous membrane, blood-vessels, nerves, muscular fibres, &c. may all be examined during life. He subsequently found that, contiary to the opinion of anatomists it contains two species of papillae distinct in their structure, corresponding to the conical and fungiform papillæ of man.

Three histochemical tests, which demonstrate mucoid substances of vertebrate origin, have been applied to a variety of insect tissues. Mucoid materials seem to be absent from the contents of the insect midgut, but a positive reaction may be given by. the striated border of the epithelium. Goblet cells of the larval midgut of Lepidoptera and rectal glands of all of the insects studied give a negative reaction, but the salivary glands of the cockroach, grasshopper, larval calliphorids, and worker honeybee all contain mucoid substances. In general, these materials seem to be of less frequent occurrence in insects than they are in most other animal phyla. The significance of the observed distribution of mucoid substances in insects is discussed, particularly in relation to the functions of the peritrophic membrane and the salivary glands.
