Fatal Reaction Following the Intravenous Injection of Congo Red

Plasma and Red Cell Radioiron following Intravenous Injection

Sterile inflammation induced by repeated subcutaneous injections of turpentine in non-anemic, non-iron-deficient dogs, leads to a fall in plasma iron concentration, the development of a moderate anemia, and a marked delay in the uptake by the red blood cells of intravenous radioiron. Similar periods of inflammation in anemic, iron-deficient dogs on a diet low in iron cause no increase in the de...

Red man syndrome adverse reaction following intravenous infusion of cefepime.

We report the first case of cefepime-induced "red-man syndrome," which appeared 30 min following drug infusion and was confirmed with a rechallenge test. This syndrome is classically associated with vancomycin infusion and is the result of non-IgE mediated mast cell degranulation. While this adverse effect can be easily managed with drug withdrawal and antihistamine administration, it is unknow...

Catalytic Kinetic Determination of Silver through its Catalytic Effect on Congo Red-Peroxodisulphate Reaction

A kinetic-spectrophotometric procedure is reported for determination of trace amounts of Ag(I). This method is based on catalytic effect of silver ion on the oxidation of congo red by potassium peroxodisulphate at pH=3.4 and 30 oC in the presence of 1,10-phenanthroline as an activator. The reaction was followed spectrophotometrically by measuring the rate of change in absorbance ...
