Dowling et al. in 1 defined a norm in l1 which was used by Lin 2 to exhibit an equivalent norm which makes l1 into a space with the fixed point property FPP . A similar norm can be defined in every Banach spaceX with a basis. Since l1 with its usual norm does not have FPP, we asked ourselves if this norm in these spaces would also improve properties that imply the weak fixed point property WFPP...

coccus suspension with immune serum at 1,800 r.p.m. for 10 minutes, and obtained very encouraging results. Mayer and Dowling (1945) used a centrifugal method for the detection of agglutinins against meningococci and obtained highly specific results. Feldman (1946) used a similar method in the identification of cultures, specially those of the dysentery group. The present paper gives the results...

A long-acting oxytetracycline in polyethylene glycol (PEG) was evaluated in a single dose study at 6.6 mg/kg IV and IM and in a long-term dose study at 20 mg/kg IM q 72 h. Pharmacokinetic results were typical for long-acting oxytetracycline formulation. The intramuscular injections caused local irritation, but oxytetracycline-PEG did not alter microbial flora or cause adverse gastrointestinal e...
