Verapamil concentrations in blood, urinee, or tissue homogenates may be measured fluorometrically in the 0.1-10-mug/ml range after extraction into heptane and back-extraction into acid; recovery rates are above 87%. The drug apparently is eliminated rapidly in guinea pigs, with a plasma half-life of

β¦ Synopsis
Sections, 1-2 micron thick, of Araldite embedded tissue were prepared to provide a link between optical and electron microscopy for the identification of crystals. This technique permits examination of individual particles by means of polarising light microscopy, electron microscopy, X-ray energy spectroscopy and electron diffraction. It provides a reliable method for routine and research studies. It has led to the positive identification of individual crystals of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate and hydroxyapatite in synovial fluids. The method can be applied to the identification of other particulate matter in a variety of biological specimens.

A Gent PM10 air sampler with stacked Γlter units was used to collect size-fractionated aerosol samples in Lisbon between October 1993 and January 1995. Sampling was made on a twice-a-week basis (one weekend day and one midweek day). The Γlter loads were measured by gravimetry and elemental analyses
A sensitive and simple method for the quantitation of oligonucleotide phosphorothioates in biological fluids and tissues is described. This method is based on the extraction of the oligonucleotide from the biological fuids and tissues and immobilization on a nylon membrane. The membrane-bound oligod
