    Notes: Abstract University of Wisconsin solution (UW) is now used widely for the preservation of livers for transplantation. However, the use of commercial solutions has added considerably to the cost. We were able to produce a local version of organ perfusion fluid (NOPF) incorporating all the constituents of UW except for the hydroxyethyl starch and adenosine. We compared graft outcome using NOPF with imported grafts perfused with commercial UW solution. The two recipient groups (15 patients each) were similar with respect to age and sex distribution, urgency of transplantation, regraft status and patient and graft survival. Postoperative duration of ventilation, dialysis requirements, peak bilirubin, peak ALT and lowest unsupported prothrombin time were also similar in both groups. In conclusion, local perfusion fluids based on UW can be produced without detriment to graft outcome with considerable financial savings. At our institution, this represents a reduction of 33 % in the cost of perfusion fluids.

    Notes: Summary Haynaldia villosa is a wild grass belonging to the tribe Triticeae, which includes important crops such as wheat, barley, and rye. The alcohol-soluble proteins ofH. villosa have extensive immunological relatedness with wheat prolamines as visualized by Western blot analysis. Amorphous protein inclusions surrounded by a limiting membrane are commonly found in the vacuoles of endosperm and subaleurone layers ofH. villosa seeds. A layer of cells just beneath the aleurone layer is rich in ER. Unlike that in other cell types, the ER in these cells is highly dilated and contains materials at its swollen distal ends. These materials are structurally similar to substances found in the protein bodies. Protein A-gold immunocytochemical localization studies employing antibodies against wheat prolamine confirmed that the inclusions found in the lumen of the ER do not contain prolamines. This observation indicates that the ER does not act as the site of prolamine accumulation inH. villosa. Protein bodies found in the vacuoles and the vesicles associated with the Golgi complexes were specifically labeled. This suggests that Golgi complexes mediate the transport of prolamines into vacuoles ofH. villosa endosperm cells, in a fashion analogous to that of other vacuolar proteins of dicotyledonous plants.
