The results of serological study for leptospirosis of 515 blood serum specimens from patients coming to different clinics of the Republic of Bangladesh, are presented. The sera were tested in microagglutination test. To exclude intergroup reactions and to enhance reliability of results, immunoglobulin classes were determined with the use of cysteine as a reducing agent and immunoabsorption test. In 51 patients (9.9%) antileptospiral antibodies were detected in titers from 1:20 to 1:1600 against pathogenic leptospires of different serological groups.

Uterotropic effect of clofibrate and phenylbutazone in immature female rats.

The uterotropic effect of clofibrate and phenylbutazone was studied in immature female rats. A significant increase in the uterine wet weight was observed following clofibrate and phenylbutazone administration. Clofibrate but not phenylbutazone synergized with the uterotropic effect of ethinyl-oestradiol. Phenylbutazone pretreatment significantly decreased the pentobarbitone sleeping time. The uterotropic effect of clofibrate and phenylbutazone might involve displacement of 17-beta oestradiol (or ethinyl oestradiol) from plasma albumin binding sites in rats.
