Notizen: Summary Twenty-four hour profiles of plasma C-peptide an index of endogenous insulin secretion, were performed in 15 Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic children. Plasma C-peptide was detectable in six children, of whom four (‘C-peptide producers’) had peak values above normal fasting levels. In each of the six children with residual B cell function, there was a close correlation between plasma C-peptide and simultaneous blood glucose (r〉 0.50, p〈 0.05). Post-breakfast peak blood glucose was 10.2 ± 1.7 mmol/l (mean ±SEM) in the ‘C-peptide producers’ and 18.7 ± 1.7 mmol/l in the 11 children with low or no detectable C-peptide. Mean M-value, an index of deviation from an ideal blood glucose, was lower in the ‘C-peptide producers’ (p〈0.05). It is concluded that residual functioning B cells in diabetic children behave physiologically in that insulin secretion fluctuates in accordance with the prevailing blood glucose; and that the pattern of action of injected insulin is more critical in non-C-peptide producers who lack the post-prandial dampening effect provided by residual endogenous insulin secretion.

Notizen: Equipment designed for simultaneous exposure of rodents to 60-Hz electric and magnetic fields is described. Three identical systems were constructed, each capable of continuous exposure of 256 rats or 640 mice to a nominal electric field at 〈50 kV/m, and to horizontal and vertical magnetic fields at 〈 1 mT. Design features, construction details, and results of various tests of the systems are described. Tests were made: of phase relations between electric and magnetic fields; of uniformity of electric and magnetic fields; of changes across time in electric-field intensity as a result of animals' soiling of cages and various washing routines; of resistance of bedding material during humid and dry conditions; and of acoustic noise due to background, to field-generation equipment, and to air conditioning equipment. The results demonstrated that fields were effectively generated but that significant and troublesome changes in electric-field intensity occurred because of cage-soiling. However, when cages were frequently cleaned, field intensities were consistent from one exposure to another.
