  • The Effects of the Morphine Analogue Levorphanol on Leukocytes: Metabolic Effects at Rest and During Phagocytosis
    The effects of the morphine analogue levorphanol on leukocytes: Metabolic effects at rest and during phagocytosis Nancy Wurster, … , Penelope Pettis, Sharon Lebow J Clin Invest. 1971;50(5):1091-1099. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI106580. Studies on bacteria have suggested that morphine-like drugs have effects on the cell membrane. To determine the effect of this class of drugs on a mammalian cell, we selected the rabbit peritoneal exudate granulocyte, which undergoes striking membrane changes during phagocytosis. We examined the effect in vitro of the morphine analogue, levorphanol on phagocytosis and metabolism by granulocytes incubated with and without polystyrene particles or live Escherichia coli. Levorphanol (1 or 2 mmoles/liter) decreased: (a) acylation of lysolecithin or lysophosphatidylethanolamine in the medium (which is stimulated about two-fold during phagocytosis) both at rest (40%) and during phagocytosis (60%); (b) uptake of latex particles and Escherichia coli, as judged by electron microscopy; (c) killing of live Escherichia coli (10-fold); (d) 14 14 + CO2 production from glucose-1- C during phagocytosis by at least 80%; (e) K content of granulocytes (35%); (f) oxidation of linoleate-1-14C by 50%, and its incorporation into triglyceride by more than 80%. However, levorphanol stimulated 2 to 3-fold the incorporation of linoleate-1-14C or palmitate-1-14C into several phospholipids. Glucose uptake, lactate production, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content are not affected by the drug. Thus, levorphanol does not appear to exert its effects through generalized metabolic suppression. Removal of levorphanol by twice resuspending the granulocytes completely reverses all inhibition. In line with observations on bacteria, it appears that the complex effects of levorphanol on […] Find the latest version: https://jci.me/106580/pdf The Effects of the Morphine Analogue Levorphanol on Leukocytes METABOLIC EFFECTS AT REST AND DURING PHAGOCYTOSIS NANcY WuRsTE, PETER ELSBACH, ERIc J.

  • Chloroform 1
    CHLOROFORM 1 1. PUBLIC HEALTH STATEMENT This public health statement tells you about chloroform and the effects of exposure. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) identifies the most serious hazardous waste sites in the nation. These sites make up the National Priorities List (NPL) and the sites are targeted for long-term federal cleanup. Chloroform has been found in at least 717 of the 1,430 current or former NPL sites, including 6 in Puerto Rico and 1 in the Virgin Islands. However, it’s unknown how many NPL sites have been evaluated for this substance. As more sites are evaluated, the sites with chloroform may increase. This is important because exposure to this substance may harm you and because these sites may be sources of exposure. When a substance is released from a large area, such as an industrial plant, or from a container, such as a drum or bottle, it enters the environment. This release does not always lead to exposure. You are exposed to a substance only when you come in contact with it. You may be exposed by breathing, eating, or drinking the substance, or by skin contact. If you are exposed to chloroform, many factors determine whether you’ll be harmed. These factors include the dose (how much), the duration (how long), and how you come in contact with it. You must also consider the other chemicals you’re exposed to and your age, sex, diet, family traits, lifestyle, and state of health. 1.1 WHAT IS CHLOROFORM? Chloroform is also known as trichloromethane or methyltrichloride.

  • Toxicology Reference Material
    toxicology Toxicology covers a wide range of disciplines, including therapeutic drug monitoring, clinical toxicology, forensic toxicology (drug driving, criminal and coroners), drugs in sport and work place drug testing, as well as academia and research. Those working in the field have a professional interest in the detection and measurement of alcohol, drugs, poisons and their breakdown products in biological samples, together with the interpretation of these measurements. Abuse and misuse of drugs is one of the biggest problems facing our society today. Acute poisoning remains one of the commonest medical emergencies, accounting for 10-20% of hospital admissions for general medicine [Dargan & Jones, 2001]. Many offenders charged with violent crimes, or victims of violent crime may have been under the influence of drugs at the time the act was committed. The use of mind-altering drugs in the work place, or whilst in control of a motor vehicle places others in danger [Drummer, 2001]. Performance enhancing drugs in sport make for an uneven playing field and distract from the core ethic of sportsmanship. Patterns of drug abuse around the world are constantly evolving. They vary between geographies; from one country to another and even from region to region or population to population within countries. With a European presence, a wide reaching network of global customers and distributors, and activate participation in relevant professional societies, Chiron is well positioned to develop and deliver relevant, and current standards to meet customer demand in this challenging field.

SYNONYMS CFR: Lysergic acid diethylamide CAS #: Base: 50-37-3 Other Names: D-lysergic acid diethylamide N, N-diethyl-D-lysergamid Lysergsäure diethylamid LAD LSD LSD-25 9,10-Didehydro-N,N diethyl-6-methylergoline-8-β-carboxamide Warning - LSD POWDER LSD powder should be handled with the utmost care. The analyst should work with an assistant using an empty hood where lights can be used to aid in UV light examination for LSD contamination. Once the container is opened, the chemist's hands and immediate area of the hood become contaminated. Anything needed outside the hood should be handled by the assistant. Dust mask, apron, and latex gloves should be worn. Dampening the gloves with a damp rag helps avoid problems associated with static electricity. Cloth gloves may be used over the latex gloves to minimize static as well. After analysis, the LSD container should be wiped off with a damp rag before replacing in the evidence bag. The chemist's gloves and the hood, including its contents should be decontaminated using diluted bleach. Decontamination is complete when all blue LSD fluorescence has been converted to yellow. 2.
