    Notes: Abstract The nerve fibres of largest diameter and of greatest length are considered to be the most vulnerable to triorthocresyl phosphate (TOCP). In this study, the differential vulnerability of the particular sciatic nerve branches was determined in the course of TOCP neuropathy and of Wallerian degeneration. The branch innervating the lateral gastrocnemius muscle, made up predominantly of large-diameter fibres, proved most susceptible to TOCP. By contrast, after proximal sciatic-nerve transection, degeneration commenced in the lateral nerve of the third digit, containing long nerve fibres of small diameter.

    Notes: The accepted approach to the interpretation of local lymph node assay (LLNA) data requires comparison of responses in the test groups with background activity found in concurrent vehicle-treated controls. However, of established value in the interpretation of toxicity test data is the use of historical control values that provide one criterion against which to judge the integrity of individual experiments. Specifically, the availability of robust and relevant historical control data permits examination of whether, in any individual experiment, control values fall within the expected range. With the most commonly used vehicle employed in the LLNA, acetone/olive oil (4 : 1) (v/v), the mean values, standard deviations and normal ranges are increasingly well established for a given laboratory, although there is some variation between laboratories, particularly with regard to expected ranges. Against this background, it is possible to identify (and, if appropriate, eliminate) a concurrent vehicle-control value that falls well outside the expected range. To explore critically the potential merits of this approach, one specific example is examined in detail.

    Notes: Abstract During the seasonal aerial application of insecticides on cotton, a cholinesterase surveillance program was realized and the adherence of the safety measures in connection with insecticides was supervised. No cases of ill health or poisoning due to the handling of the insecticides are known to have occurred amongst the pilots, entomologists, and aircraft engineers. Only a small number of ground personnel and landing strip workmen showed temporarily depressed cholinesterase levels while engaged in this program.
