One hundred and seventeen specimens of cerebrospinal fluid from 94 patients were examined for the presence of pneumococcal and Haemophilus influenzae type b antigens using counterimmunoelectrophoresis and coagglutination tests. The coagglutination method using Phadebact reagents was as sensitive as counterimmunoelectrophoresis, but culture was a more sensitive diagnostic procedure than either t...

For managers, innovation is vital, but paradoxical, requiring flexibility and empowerment, as well as control and efficiency. Increasingly, studies stress organizational culture as a key to managing innovation. Yet innovation-supportive culture remains an intricate and amorphous phenomenon.

pyogenic meningitis, however, CSF culture was sterile. Gram stain of CSF and skin lesions revealed no bacteria. Culture of fluid from skin lesions, blood culture and ear discharge grew Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Serum IgG level was 930 mg/dL, IgA was 102 mg/dL, and IgM was 12 mg/dL. Serum IgM level of father was. 19.5 mg/dL. The patient was administered appropriate antibiotics, platelet transfusio...

Co-culture strategies are foundational in cell biology. These systems, which serve as mimics of in vivo tissue niches, are typically poorly defined in terms of cell ratios, local cues and supportive cell-cell interactions. In the stem cell niche, the ability to screen cell-cell interactions and identify local supportive microenvironments has a broad range of applications in transplantation, tis...
