Faster estimation of reserve bilirubin binding capacity of serum from the neonate by thin-layer chromatography on sephadex.
Knowledge of the reserve bilirubin-binding capacity is useful in management of hyperbilirubinemia in the newborn. We describe thin-layer gel chromatography that permits measurement of this variable, with a 250-mul sample of serum, within 50 min. Single samples from four different infants can be analyzed on the same plate. The capacity of 40 sera from jaundiced and of 19 sera from nonjaundiced i...
متن کاملThe routine use of Sephadex to estimate "free" bilirubin and the residual serum bilirubin binding capacity.
Those of your readers who are interested in anticonvulsant-drug analyses will be familiar with the drugs ethotoin (Peganone#{174}, 3-ethyl-5-phenylhydantoin) and mephenytoin (Mesantoin#{174}, 5-ethyl-3methyl-5-phenylhydantoin). They will also be familiar with the name Nirvanol#{174}. Unfortunately, a dreadful state of confusion exists among various authorities as to whether Nirvanol is ethotoin...
متن کاملGastrointestinal permeability changes in the preterm neonate.
The lactulose/L-rhamnose urinary excretion ratio during continued infusion of milks containing both sugars was used as an index of the permeability of the neonatal bowel to large and small molecules. Healthy infants of gestational age 31-36 weeks proved to have a period of enhanced permeability to lactulose during the first week of life, the lactulose/L-rhamnose excretion ratio being significan...
متن کاملRespiratory distress syndrome in the preterm neonate
As in the adult with acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome, the use of lung-protective ventilation has improved outcomes for neonatal lung diseases. Animal models of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome and congenital diaphragmatic hernia have provided evidence that ‘gentle ventilation’ with low tidal volumes and ‘open-lung’ strategies of using positive end-expiratory pres...
متن کاملMicronutrient deficiencies in the preterm neonate.
The nutrition of the premature infant poses a critically important challenge to clinicians. Premature infants are a heterogeneous group; maternal status, gestational age, drug intake, respiratory distress, phototherapy, and infection all conspire to make it extremely unlikely that a recommendation for daily intakes will satisfactorily encompass all babies. Clinical and subclinical deficiencies ...
