    Notes: Abstract Cardiac performance and some parameters of glycolytic and oxidative metabolism were analyzed in isolated perfused guinea pig hearts performing pressure-volume work. Perfusion medium was an oxygenated Krebs-Henseleit bicarbonate buffer (pH 7.4) which contained glucose and physiological concentrations of pyruvate and insulin. The pressure-flow relationship in the coronary vascular bed indicated autoregulation of coronary flow. Left ventricular function was influenced by aortic pressure (Pa) and venous filling pressure (Pv) in accordance with the Frank-Starling principle, i.e. stroke work increased as a function of Pa or Pv to a certain maximum and then decreased. Myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2), on the other hand, was linearly correlated with Pa and Pv, respectively, over the entire pressure range. Efficiency of the left ventricle, therefore, increased to an optimum (16%) and decreased at higher pressures. Myocardial contents of glycogen, ATP and creatine phosphate were not markedly influenced by a change in Pa or Pv.l-Noradrenaline (0.08 μM, NA) stimulated stroke work and MVO2 at a all Pv tested; efficiencies reached physiologic values (21%) at high volume loads. The increased MVO2 was associated with an acceleration of pyruvate decarboxylation and lactate release up to 10- and 15-fold, respectively, at elevated but physiological NA concentrations (0.2 μM). Our results demonstrate that the isolated perfused working guinea pig heart compares favourably with the non-failing Starling heart-lung preparation and hearts in situ, as far as coronary function, left ventricular performance and oxidative metabolism are concerned.

    Notes: Waste water purification at BASF, Ludwigshafen/Rh. The manifold problems encountered in the field of waste water treatment in the chemical industry are considered, together with the tasks involved, possible solutions, and costs incurred, for the example of BASF AG in Ludwigshafen. This example is particularly interesting because it shows how the waste water problems of a chemical factory that has been in existence for over a centurvey could be solved in the course of a ten-year plan. Twenty years after the inception of this plan, costs and success can now be quantified.
