Effect of isoniazid on the protoplasmic viscosity in Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

The effect of isoniazid on the protoplasmic viscosity in the H37Ra strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis was determined by using electron spin resonance spectroscopy and a small spin label tempone (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidone-N-oxyl radical). Isoniazid (0.5 mug/ml) caused the internal cellular viscosity to increase gradually over the first 15 h of exposure from a rotational correlation time value (T(c)) of 2.4 x 10(-10) to 3.4 x 10(10) s and then decrease linearly to the control level after 27 h. These results could be interpreted to mean that isoniazid allows a continued and normal synthesis of the protoplasmic components while the rate of increase in the cell volume is reduced. A degradative process may begin after the initial 15-h exposure time, which would cause the reduction in the internal viscosity.

Cause for concern: the absence of consideration of public and ethical interest in British public policy.

In the UK, many fundamentally important policy decisions that are likely to affect the relationship between citizens and care services are now made at the sublegislative level and without adequate ethical consideration and scrutiny. This is well exemplified in the proposed guidance on the disclosure of information on children. A recent consultation paper by the UK government on the subject proposes an approach that seeks a simple technical solution to a complex problem, emphasising control and surveillance. This reflects pressure to be seen to act. The document fails with regard to ethical reflection appropriate to the complexity of the issue, an appreciation of complex relationships of trust, and a proper sense of the richness and complexity of the public interest. Such policies would, if implemented, fundamentally change the relationships between citizens and their carers, and among carers and the law and the state. This and similar proposals require far more ethical scrutiny and consideration of the public interest in the widest sense.

Manpower, entrepreneurs, and antitrust.

The problem of nonradiologists practicing radiology is discussed. The trend toward moving the practice of radiology out of the hospital and into the office setting favors the entrepreneur, radiologist and nonradiologist alike. Many clinicians are setting up offices with radiological facilities. Because of the threat of antitrust litigation, radiological societies may be discouraged from speaking out against this practice.
