    Notes: The murine monoclonal antibody PAb1605 defines an epitope, peptide Lys(698)-Thr(708) (KT), on the carboxyterminus of the tumour(T)antigen of SV40-transformed cells. In vivo and in vitro experiments had shown that this sequence represents an epitope for both humoral and cellular immune responses. When injected into rabbits PAb1605 induces anti-idiotypic antibodies (Ab-2). Ab-2β (internal image type) was purified by adsorption chromatography and characterized by the ability of KT to compete with the binding of ab-2 with ab-1. Murine anti-anti-idiotypic antibodies (ab-3) were obtained by immunization of mice with ab-2β. Both ab-1 and ab-3 JgG showed affinities to immunoprecipitated SV40 T antigen by immunoblot analysis and to nuclear SV40 T antigen by the immunofluorescence assay. The binding of ab-3 to SV40 T antigen was completely inhibited by competition with KT. We conclude that the polyclonal ab-3 is of the ab-3 subtype and specific for only one epitope which is represented by KT and defined by ab-1. The results demonstrate that the specificity for a defined peptide epitope of an antibody was conserved even after two consecutive steps of anti-idiotypic-antibody formation in two host species. Since this postulate of network theory could be verified for a sequence of a tumour-associated antigen which represents a B- and T cell epitope, this model is of great interest for further tumour immunological studies.

    Notes: The purpose of this investigation was to establish a standardized animal model to predict the photoallergenic potential of new chemical compounds. In a first series of experiments the main factors influencing the induction of photoallergenicity were evaluated (induction concentration, pH of the test solution, pretreatment of the irradiation site with sodium lauryl sulphate, additional use of adjuvant injections and routes of administration). Osram Ultravitalux lamps were utilized for these studies.In a second series of experiments a Xenon 6000 W radiation source was used. Positive results were obtained with well known photosensitizers, as, for instance, the halogenated salicylanilides, as well as with so-called weak photoallergens (e.g. bithionol, sulphanilamide) by stimulating the animals' immune system with Freund's complete adjuvant.The photoallergenic compounds were at the same time tested for their contact allergenic potential in the optimization test.A standard procedure for the predictive photoallergenicity assay in guinea-pigs is proposed.

    Notes: 6-Methylcoumarin was tested in a new animal model developed for the predictive evaluation of photocontact allergenic potential. Negative results were obtained and these are discussed with respect to inherent limitations of the animal model.

    Notes: [Auszug] SIR — Motion detection has been widely investigated using randomdot kinematograms (RDKs). Under appropriate conditions, motion may be seen between a randomdot image and its displaced counterpart1. Here we attempt to discriminate between the two classes of model that can account for this. ...

    Notes: Abstract Subchronic testing of laboratory animals in accordance with present regulatory guidelines involves maximum exposure with the chemical under investigation and serves for the evaluation of systemic toxicity as well as of lesions in organs and organ systems, including neurotoxicity. The primary assessment of neurotoxicity is essentially based on the overall observation of animal behaviour in the course of the customary toxicity studies and on the subsequent neuropathological evaluation with contemporary techniques. Under this maximum exposure the absence of symptoms and signs of neural abnormalities indicates that the material testd would be devoid of neurotoxicity. Any overt or suspicious symptoms for neurotoxicity appearing in the course of subchronic testing may be further characterized with additional functional tests such as neurological examination, electrodiagnostics and possibly with specific behavioural tests. The subsequent neuropathological investigation would have to be expanded to include a detailed evaluation of all neural structures possibly related with the above functional derangements. In case of relevant neurotoxicity subsequent specific behavioural tests might include the evaluation of complex neural functions such as integrated psycho-neuro-motor activity and memory. These behavioural tests might help to explain neurotoxicity and to assess behaviour at low levels of exposure. The implementation of such specific behavioural testing procedures beyond the scope of routine toxicity studies would require a group of investigators capable to earry out appropriate tests. The introduction of such testing will therefore have to be evaluated competitively regarding costs versus the advantages offered by the refinement of the other testing procedures for neurotoxicity including the neuropathological techniques. The performance of behavioural tests without preceding or concomitant toxicological evaluation is not considered to be a feasible approach.

    Notes: Abstract Hydroxyurea was administered intraperitoneally to pregnant albino rats in a single dose of 2000 mg/kg on day 14 of gestation. Both the perinatal and postnatal mortality rates of the progeny were increased and their weight gain reduced. Exploratory locomotion of 32-day-old rats, calculated by means of an ‘activity index’, was significantly reduced. The treatment had no effect on the brain weight. The fertility of the progeny was not impaired.

    Notes: Abstract. The direct reconstruction of the isospin I = 0 amplitudes is discussed under the assumption that the I = 1 amplitudes are known and that a sufficient number of independent np observables have been measured at a centre-of-mass angle $\theta $ . We show that at least one observable measured at angle $\pi - \theta $ is necessary in order to determine the I = 0 amplitudes, including the phase relative to the I = 1 amplitudes. Special cases at $\theta = 0$ , $\pi/2$ and $\pi$ are also discussed.
