    Notes: Summary The present study was designed to examine which type of adenosine receptors was involved in enhancement of high K+-evoked taurine release fromin vivo rat hippocampus using microdialysis. Perfusion with 0.5 or 5.0 mM adenosine enhanced high K+-evoked taurine release. Perfusion with 2μM R(−)-N6-2-phenylisopropyladenosine (PIA), a selective adenosine A1 receptor agonist, did not modulate taurine release. Perfusion with 1μM 1,3-dipropyl-8-cyclopentylxanthine (DPCPX), a selective adenosine A1 receptor antagonist, increased taurine release. On the other hand, perfusion with 20μM 2-[4-(2-carboxyethyl)phenethylamino]-5′-N-ethyl-carboxamideadenosine (CGS21680), a selective adenosine A2A receptor agonist, enhanced taurine release, while perfusion with 1 mM 3,7-dimethyl-propagylxanthine (DMPX), an adenosine A2 receptor antagonist, did not affect taurine release. These results demonstrate that adenosine enhances high K+-evoked taurine release via activation of adenosine A2A receptors from both neurons and glial cells ofin vivo rat hippocampus.

    Notes: Summary The precision of integration over noisy instrumental output for quantitative analysis is studied. A probability theory is developed to predict the relative standard deviation (RSD) of integration results over an integration domain from one-point integation (peak height measurement) to entire area integration in HPLC. Common integration modes of horizontal zero line and oblique zero line are taken into account, but no peak overlap is assumed. The question of the analytical superiority of peak height measurement or integration for quantitation is answered. In the HPLC apparatus used, the minimum RSD of measurements is found in the integration domain of ca. ±0.5 σ for analytes [peaks are approximated by the Gaussian signal of width, σ (standard deviation)]. The RSD of integration measurements is also shown to depend on the stochastic properties of back-ground noise (uncorrelated noise and correlated 1/f type noise). The theoretical conclusion is verified by Monte Carlo simulation and HPLC experiments for some aromatic compounds.

    Notes: Summary A method to determine the limit of detection (LOD) in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is described. The power spectral density of instrumental baseline variation is fitted by the simplex least squares methods with a mixed random process of white noise and Markov process as a model. The white noise is characterized by standard deviation (SD), ∼w; the Markov process by the SD, ∼m, and auto-correlation degree, ρ. All required parameters for calculating the LOD signal are obtained by experiment without repeat measurements. No arbitrary constants are needed. The LOD signal is uniquely determined and is characterized by 33.3% relative standard deviation (RSD) of analyte measurements and 0.13% of the error of the first type. This signal also specifies that the signal-to-noise ratio=3, using the definition of noise originating from the white noise and Markov process. The theoretical conclusion is verified by the Monte Carlo simulation using real baseline and peaks. The LOD concentrations for naphthalene, acenaphthene, pyrene and perylene are given.

    Notes: Abstract Two strains of enteropathogenic Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus auricularis, NIAH 11484 and Staphylococcus aureus, IFO 12732) were tested in vitro for their resistance to extracts from tropical chewing stick species, namely, Garcinia mannii Heck, Masularia accuminata (G. Don) Benth, Zanthoxylum gilletii (DeWild) Waterman, Terminalia glaucescens Plauch ex Benth, Azadiracta indica A. Juss, Anogeissus leiocarpus Guill & Perr and Pseudocedrela kotschyi (Schweinf.). The chewing sticks are normally used for oral hygiene and this is felt to be related to their ability to attack bioagents that could invade the mouth during normal nutrition. Results from our study showed that the antibiotic properties of test chewing stick species vary and are target-microbe-specific. Of the species examined, only T. glaucescens showed appreciable broad antibiotic effect against S. aureus and S. auricularis. Intense antibiotic activity against S. aureus occurred when using a 2.0 g/l extract concentration and a 30-h incubation. T. glaucescens also showed intense activity against S. auricularis at 2.0 g/l concentration, 30-h incubation when all other extracts had lost their potency. A. indica is, however, most effective against S. aureus, showing appreciable antibiotic activity at 0.4 g/l concentration, 30-h incubation. Z. gilletii has no antibiotic activity against any of the test bacteria. The antistaphylococcus compounds in T. glaucescens and A. indica are worthy of isolation and further analyses.
