Tracer adenosine: a novel myocardial flow marker.

UNLABELLED Local myocardial blood flow measurements are of great importance in experimental and clinical settings. However, a lack of ideal markers is evident. Adenosine is suggested to be a potential candidate because of its high uptake and rapid intracellular sequestration. We specifically tested the hypothesis that the local deposition density of labeled adenosine within the heart reflects l...

Interpretation of Tracer Washout Curves from a Population of Muscle Fibers

Consideration is given to the role of a population of muscle fibers of distributed diameters in the observed washout of a tracer, with particular reference to radioisotopic K and muscle fibers. It is concluded that if washout of tracer from a single fiber is described as first order, then washout of tracer from a population of fibers is apt to appear as first order.

The determination of uneven pulmonary blood flow from the arterial oxygen tension during nitrogen washout.

Many tests are available for measuring unevenness of pulmonary ventilation. In recent years tests of unevenness of pulmonary blood flow have been described, which utilize radioactive krypton (1) in patients with emphysema, radioactive oxygen in patients with mitral stenosis (2), and radioactive carbon dioxide in normal subjects (3). These studies provide quantitative data on the degree of uneve...

Application of Tracer Techniques to Continuous-flow Toxicity Testing

-Frequent toxicant analyses are essential for good quality data in long-term continuous-flow tests. Due to the time consuming and costly chemical analyses, exposure levels are measured at best on a daily basis. These infrequent determinations may not detect variability in toxicant concentrations that could result in test failures. To minimize repetitive testing and improve data quality, a dye t...
