A Mammalian Virus (Sv40) Inductest For Putative Carcinogens, Howard Blount May 1982

A Mammalian Virus (Sv40) Inductest For Putative Carcinogens, Howard Blount

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The in vitro mammalian virus inductest is based on the measurement of induced viral gene expression from Simian virus 40 (SV40) transformed weanling Syrian hamster kidney cells (clone E). Upon challenge by many DNA-damaging chemical agents, infectious virions were produced which were quantitated by assay on a cell line permissive to SV40, such as the highly contact inhibited African green monkey kidney cells, CV-1P. Some known carcinogens and non-carcinogens were tested in this research including mitomycin C, aflatoxins Bl and Gl, sterigmatocystin and several polycyclic hydrocarbons.

Lysolecithin (a membrane permeabilizing agent) and S9 mix (a pre -metabolizing mixture) were used …


Meal Interference With Antibiotics Administered Orally In Kentucky Hospitals, Shirley Harper May 1982

Meal Interference With Antibiotics Administered Orally In Kentucky Hospitals, Shirley Harper

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Hospitals within the State of Kentucky were surveyed to determine if the size of the hospitals influence the frequency of potential meal interference with the administration of oral antibiotics where the "empty stomach" concept must be fulfilled. One hundred and ten hospitals responded to the mailed survey. Of the responding hospitals 103 were short-term and 7 were long-term hospitals. The frequency of conflict was greater for nourishments than with meal interference. Ninety-three and six tenths percent or 103 answered yes when asked if all patients received nourishments on request. The conflicts of potential meal interference ranged from 15 to 40 …

An Evaluation For Modification (Shorter) Of The Kirby-Bauer Susceptibility Test, Walter Norris Jr. Apr 1982

An Evaluation For Modification (Shorter) Of The Kirby-Bauer Susceptibility Test, Walter Norris Jr.

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The Kirby-Bauer test for determining antibiotic effectiveness is widely used in laboratories. The 10 to 20 hour incubation time needed to obtain useful results is a disadvantage of that test. This experimental research was developed to test a modification which could provide useful results in 5 hours.

The modification employed in this experimental technique used an increased inoculum at a 1.0 McFarland standard instead of the customary 0.5 standard. The 2 to 5 hour incubation period in the trypticase soy broth was deleted. The Mueller Hinton plates were incubated for 5 hours and then observed for resistant and/or sensitive patterns. …
