The neuromuscular and cardiovascular activities of pancuronium were compared with those of its 16(3 monoquaternary congener, Org NC 45, in the anaesthetized rat, cat and rhesus monkey. In the rat Org NC 45 was 3.4 times less potent as a neuromuscular blocking agent than was pancuronium. In the cat, both drugs were found to be approximately equally eliminated by the liver, whereas renal eliminat...

Conventional wisdom says the ideal proof should be short, simple, and elegant. However there are now examples of very long, complicated proofs, and as mathematics continues to mature, more examples are likely to appear. Such proofs raise various issues. For example it is impossible to write out a very long and complicated argument without error, so is such a 'proof' really a proof? What conditi...
