Ink mark and correction made on page 1. Cover has some wear and soiling. It is of interest that the shorter survival time of adrenalectomized animals suggest an increased radiosensivity. The failure of adrenalectomy to increase the mortality of ionizing radiation in previous work was inconsistent with past observations on the effect of adrenalectory on stresses in general. Therefore the authors felt it desirable to repeat the previous work, determining the effect of adrenalectomy on the entire lethal dose curve. The adrenal insufficient mouse was more sensitive to irradiation than the normal mouse. The survival time in adrenalectomized mice was shortened. The cause of death in the adrenalectomized irradiated mouse was apparently due to mechanisms other than infection and hemorrhage. The author became a Brookhaven National Laboratory Senior Scientist emeritus and was a former Medical Department Chairman. While in the U.S. Navy, 1942- 54, he collaborated on developing techniques for platelet and granulocyte transfusions, both crucial for blood clotting, fighting infections and also for treating acute leukemia. In 1946, he became Head Hematologist at the Naval Medical Research Institute. In March 1954, Gene was sent to the Marshall Islands to study and treat its inhabitants and the American servicemen who were accidentally exposed to fallout from a nuclear test. In the wake of the Castle Bravo detonation, a new research section was added to the Castle Bravo Weapons Effects research section. Program 4, "Biomedical effects," was to include Project 4.1, titled "Study of Response of Human Beings exposed to Significant Beta and Gamma Radiation due to Fall-out from High-Yield Weapons." Eugene P. Cronkite of the National Naval Medical Center was designated as Project Officer.…

Kartoniert / Broschiert. Zustand: New. Proceedings of a Conference on Application of Diffusion Chamber Culture in Study of Hemopoiesis, Clonal Growth of Tumors, and Cytogenetic and Carcinogenic Effects of Chemicals, Held at Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, NYfrom 25 - 29 June 1979E.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Even though diffusion chamber culture was commenced long before ortho dox tissue culture by Metchnikoff (1887) there have been only sporadic attempts to use this methodology to study cell proliferation (review by Carsten, Chap. 1). Not so long ago diffusion chamber culture was nicknamed 'confusion chamber' culture. I believe this conference has removed the confusion and will truly point out the intrinsic value of the system. It is not a substitute for established in vitro culture nor for in vivo studies. It complements both. Dr. Arne B~yum introduced diffusion chamber culture at Brookhaven National Laboratory. After some modest success in showing that one could culture human bone marrow and with appropriate stimuli induce erythro poiesis in diffusion chambers, several of the participants at this conference visited Brookhaven to learn firsthand this simple technology and to apply it in their own laboratories. However, the technique did not spread widely and controversy arose in which the same question was repeatedly asked: Can the diffusion chamber technique provide information that is not ob tainable more rapidly and easily, and at less expense by the in vitro tech niques As a result of our deep interest in and involvement with diffusion chamber culture Dr. A. L. Carsten and I organized this conference. A major objective of this conference was to seek answers to the above question.…
