    Notes: Abstract The frequency of reversion in a histidine-requiring mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae increases about ten-fold in stationary cells during histidine starvation. Histidine starvation enhances a similar frequency of reversion in a tryptophan-requiring mutant. Starvation, therefore, enhances mutation frequencies in a non-adaptive manner. The base analogue 6-N-hydroxylaminopurine (HAP) added prior to plating on medium with limited histidine strongly increases reversion of the histidine mutant. HAP-induced reversion increases further in stationary starving cells with the same kinetics as that which increases spontaneous reversion. Adding HAP to the stationary starving cells does not produce any effect.

    Notes: Abstract Haploid and diploid strains of Aspergillus nidulans have been repeatedly treated with the strong mutagen 6-N-hydroxylaminopurine (HAP) which causes only base substitutions. An enormous amount of variability may be rapidly accumulated in haploid or diploid strains of A. nidulans. In particular, in the diploids the analysis of the results shows that after 12 cycles of treatment the conidia differ from each other for about ten recessive lethals and therefore probably for several hundreds of mutations. The viability of the heterozygous multiply mutant diploids is not appreciably different from that of untreated controls. In the diploid strains the accumulated variability was very high. The treatment of a haploid strain during vegetative growth also caused a strong accumulation of mutations, even though deleterious, because they can be maintained in the heterokaryotic condition.

    Notes: Summary Aminophylline (theophylline-ethylenediamine) was administered to 27 premature newborns to prevent apneic spells. Of the 22 patients monitored for theophylline concentration, a therapeutic blood level was reached in 19 in 1–2 days, and 3 stayed below it. ‘Toxic’ blood levels (≥20 µg/ml) were reached in 3 cases, one of whom showed signs of toxicity. Theophylline treatment was not efficient in the prevention of apnea when a serious underlying disease was present. Theophylline blood half-life (mean : 27.0 h) and clearance (mean 12.9 ml/h/kg) confirmed the slow elimination pattern of the drug in the premature infant.
