Factors in standardizing automated cholinesterase assays.
A scientific panel assembled by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) determined that variability in cholinesterase (ChE) activities in the agency's pesticide/animal study database likely was due to a lack of accepted guidelines for ChE methodology. A series of trials was held in which participating laboratories measured ChE activity in blood and brain samples from untreated and pesticide-treated rats using a colorimetric assay method. The degree of inhibition of ChE activity in plasma and brain samples compared to controls was consistent among most of the laboratories. The ChE activity in erythrocyte samples differed more between laboratories due to a high blank, low erythrocyte AChE activity and hemoglobin absorption at the wavelength of the assay. Strategies are suggested for minimizing the variability of ChE activity in hemoglobin-rich samples.

[Influence of preventive measures on caries increase in preschool children].
By means of a longitudinal study in which only tablet fluoridation was applied the carioprotective effect of complement measures in comparison to a test group has been investigated. A further reduction of caries increase of over 60% occurs by complex preventive programmes.
