[Multiple primary pulmonary carcinomas].

Three cases of multiple simultaneous primary lung carcinomas are presented, in which diagnosis was established by post-surgery pathological exam. In all three cases, chest X-ray showed pulmonary masses suggestive or clinical malignancy, and pre-surgery pathological diagnosis or squamous lung carcinoma. During thoracotomy or in the resected segment, a second lesion we confirmed which made resection necessary being this second lesion classified as lung adenocarcinoma.

Identification and isolation of human insulin A and B chains by high-performance liquid chromatography.

A method for the isolation, identification and quantification of human insulin A and B chains by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is described. These chains were isolated from a peptide mixture produced by E. coli with modified genes obtained by genetic engineering. The method is based on the use of hydrophilic reagents, forming ion pairs in a reversed-phase column. Because some undesirable effects resulting from the use of phosphoric acid were observed, especially with the B chain, a new HPLC method was developed for each of the two human insulin chains. The use of trifluoroacetic acid as a counter ion for the A chain and of formic acid for the B chain led to the rapid isolation and purification of each chain by HPLC. The advantage of this method is that it provides a highly pure product, which was identified by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and amino acid analysis.
