ABSTRACT An improved method for the determination of serum triiodothyronine (T3) has been developed. After addition of a tracer amount of the hormone, T3 was extracted from 1 ml serum under conditions of pH and ionic strength which favoured T3 extraction (89%) over thyroxine (T4) extraction (58%). Chromatography of the extracted material on Sephadex LH-20 separated T3 completely from residual T4. The T3 eluate was dried, then re-dissolved in 0.5 ml NaOH 0.04 n. To 0.2 ml duplicate aliquots, a standard amount of TBG was added for the competitive protein analysis. After one hour incubation at 4°C, separation of bound from free T3 was achieved on small Sephadex G-25 columns. Overall recovery was 67 ± 10.8% and correction for the loss was made. The solvent blank was 37 ± 27 (sd) ng/100 ml. Accuracy of measurement of known quantities of T3 added to serum was 98.4%. The coefficient of variation within the assay was 6.2% and between the assays it was 11.4%. The limit of detection (0.1 ng) corresponded to a concentration of 25 ng/100 ml. T4 added to serum did not interfere with T3 determination until high non-physiological values were reached. The mean ± sd serum T3 in 54 euthyroid subjects was 153 ± 58 ng/100 ml and in 24 hyperthyroid patients it was 428 ±186 ng/100 ml; 4 out of the 24 hyperthyroid values were within 2 sd of the mean euthyroid group. All the values found in the euthyroid group were well above the limit of detection of the method.

Abstract A modified method for the determination of dithiocarbamate fungicide residues on crops is presented. A large representative subsample of the frozen crop is blended in ice-cold deaerated water and an aliquot of the homogenate is added to the analytical apparatus containing hot 5 0% sulfuric acid. Dithiocarbamates are decomposed to evolve CS2 which is removed by a continuous gentle air-sweep from the digestion flask. Variations in technique allow the analysis of dithiocarbamate fungicide residues in several ranges, 1-10, 10-200, and 200-1000 /ig maneb. Recoveries from a wide variety of crops averaged 70 to 103%. Certain crop types present low recoveries and/or high apparent control values, but modifications in the analytical procedure are successful in solving these problems.

An improved method for the tabulation of analytical data, obtained by addition and successive dilution procedures for spectrochemical analysis, is presented. The author's previous work shows that the solution of the first approximation diverges at some dilution factor smaller than unity when the slope of the working curve of added series is greater than that of unadded series. By obtaining the distance between this position and the origin, and taking it as a correction factor for zero-order approximation, tabulation of the analytical value, in the case of β>α, is carried out. One parameter of the calculation is deleted by normalizing the spectral intensity; therefore, the tabulation can be simplified.

The determination of tearing energy, i.e. the energy available for crack growth, is an essential prerequisite for the estimation of the fatigue life of rubber components. Three methods of determining tearing energy are considered: from changes in total energy, from crack surface displacements, and by comparison with known values for the same crack growth rates. It is shown by applying experimental and numerical techniques to plane-stress testpieces, not necessarily of uniform stress or thickness, that the methods are satisfactory.
