Abstract

A literature survey of file management, relational database management, and network/hierarchical database management systems led to selection of dBASE III to manage patient records on an IBM PC in the Department of Orthodontics at the Louisiana State University School of Dentistry. The versatility of this system's internal language enables ad hoc analysis of clinical and personal data to meet both anticipated and unanticipated management and scientific needs.

Molecular orbital study on the glutathione-dependent detoxication of ozonides.

The present paper describes a theoretical study on the mechanism underlying the reaction of cellular glutathione (GSH) with polyunsaturated fatty acid ozonides. The reaction can be catalyzed by glutathione S-transferases and leads to detoxication of the ozonides. Semi-empirical molecular orbital computer calculations suggest that the reaction of glutathione with ozonides involves a nucleophilic attack at one of the carbon atoms of the ozonide ring, instead of at one of the peroxidic oxygen atoms of the ozonide ring. This implies a mechanism different from that of the glutathione S-transferase-mediated reaction with hydroperoxides, previously proposed for the glutathione-dependent detoxication of fatty acid ozonides.
