Action of Maleic Hydrazide on Paramecium Aurelia

Description: This brief report demonstrates findings related to the effects of maleic hydrazide (MH) on Paramecium aurelia. Using methods that should reveal lethal chromosomal aberrations occurring in the micronucleus, researchers determine they are unable to demonstrate any deleterious genetic effect of the compound in concentrations non-lethal to the cell. The methods used were those employed in the investigation of mutations induced by radiations and by nitrogen mustards. Figure demonstrates effect of ma… more

Personal Communication From A. M. Brues to Sir Lionel Whitby, Department of Medicine, University of Cambridge, July 12, 1951 - Based on Report by N. J. Scully in ANL-4625

Description: Dextran is produced in a fermentation process by a bacterium that requires sucrose for its growth, but only the glucose portion of the sucrose molecule is utilized in building up the large dextran molecule. The crude dextran solution is purified by removal of other material and partially hydrolyzed to a molecular size range required for clinical use.
