    Notes: Abstract. Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the biochemical characteristics of synovial fluids after treatment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with intra-articularly injected hyaluronate (HA).¶Treatment: In a double-blind study, 13 patients received intra-articular injections of 1% HA in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) while 13 other patients were injected 0.01% HA in PBS, as the control group. Injections were administered once a week for five weeks.¶Methods: Clinical efficacy and characteristics of synovial fluid were compared between groups.¶Results: Significant clinical improvement was observed in the HA-treated group compared to the control group. The viscosity of retained synovial fluid increased. Stringing and HA concentration increased significantly whereas the concentrations of protein and chondroitin sulfate 4 and 6 decreased significantly. The HA molecular weight remained the same in both groups.¶Conclusion: Intra-articular HA injection altered the properties of synovial fluid and proved efficacious for patients with RA.

    Notes: Abstract Adsorption and diffusion of tri-sulfonated azo dyes, C.I. Acid Red 18 and C.I. Acid Red 27 onto waterswollen cellulose membrane has been studied at 25°C. Affinities of these dyes onto cellulose were evaluated by the coefficients of Freundlich equation. Diffusion behavior of these days was analyzed on the basis of a parallel transport theory by surface and pore diffusion. The results could be described by the parallel diffusion model provided that adsorption was stimulated by addition of NaCl. The surface diffusivities for the parallel diffusion model were correlated by the affinity of the dyes, on the other hand, the pore diffusivities for the model were affected by aggregation of the dye depending on its structure and NaCl concentration.
