A clinical comparison of sodium thiopental (pentothal®), sodium methitural (neraval®), sodium buthalitone (transithal®), and sodium hexobarbital (evipal®)

A clinical comparison of sodium thiopental (pentothal), sodium methitural (neraval), sodium buthalitone (transithal), and sodium hexobarbital (evipal).

Much ~ been written m recent years of the relative advantages and chsadvantages of new intravenous anaesthetics. Such comparisons are always difficult to make because of the many variables which ca~Lnot be easily controlled in a clinical series. For that reason, we attempted some time ago to compare a number of intravenous agents in human vol~mteers, a&a~inistering each drug consecutively to th...

Intravenous Anæsthesia with Pentothal Sodium

Thiopental Sodium Anesthesia Following Premedication of Rabbits with Vitamin C

Rabbits are widely used as laboratory animals for experimental surgery. Anesthesia of rabbits may present complications unless the method is easy to apply and safe to use. In present study, effects of different dosages of vitamin C on thiopental sodium induced anesthesia in 25 male New Zealand white rabbits were studied. In the animals that had not received vitamin C treatment before thiopental...

Sodium Channel and Sodium

Levels of sodium pump and of sodium channels were measured at different stages of membrane purification. Microsomal fractions of normal human muscle have maximal binding capacities for tetrodotoxin of 230 fmol/mg of protein and of 7.4 pmol/mg of protein for ouabain. Dissociation constant for the complexes formed by the tetrodotoxin derivative and by ouabain with their respective receptors were ...
