Serum level monitoring and therapeutic effect of haloperidol in schizophrenic patients.

Haloperidol serum concentrations were determined after IM or oral treatment in 15 schizophrenic patients. No correlation was found between drug levels and therapeutic effect. However, a good relationship was found between the half-life calculated after the first IM injection and the BPRS decrease after 3 weeks. Therefore a serum level study to the first day may forecast the therapeutic response.

Identification and differentiation of resinous cannabis and textile cannabis: combined use of HPLC and high-resolution GLC.

The combined use of high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and high-resolution gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) afforded a means of isolating three substances in samples of cannabis, of determining their retention times in HPLC and in GLC with and without derivation, and of identifying them, by comparison with the data in the literature, with the three major constituents of cannabis: cannabidiol (CBD), delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC) and cannabinol (CBN), without using either control substances or a mass spectrometer. Furthermore, calculation of the peak area ratios (formula: see text); for the different sample varieties can serve as a criterion for the differentiation of resinous cannabis and textile cannabis.

A practical proposal for arginine-vasopressin radioimmunoassay.

This work proposes the use of (a) a commercially available homologous system AVP antibody-AVP (Arginine Vasopressin) standard and (b) new acquisitions for the improvement of sensitivity for AVP radioimmunoassay by separate or simultaneous use of two-phase sequential incubation and epsilon-aminocaproic acid (EACA). The antiserum used in the system described is very specific since none even cross-reacted with lysine vasopressin (LVP) and has an apparent affinity constant (K) of 0.909 +/- 0.047 X 10(12) l/mol. This is sufficiently high to detect 0.5 +/- 0.2 pg/tube, which is theoretically expected of biological AVP. The total assay time is less than 48 h.
