    Notes: Abstract The effect of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF165) on the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) of 13-day-old chick embryos was studied. The factor was applied in doses of 0.5–4 μg for a period of up to 4 days. Macroscopical, histological and immunohistological studies were carried out. The localization of the factor was examined with an anti-VEGF antibody. The mitogenicity of VEGF165 and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) were studied by means of the BrdU-anti-BrdU method. Furthermore, the effect of heparin alone and in combination with VEGF165 was investigated. VEGF165 specifically induces angiogenesis in doses of 0.5 μg and more. A brush-like formation of blood vessels can be seen in the region of the precapillary vessels. Angiogenesis also takes place in the region of the capillaries and the venules. Histologically we found indications of sprouting as well as of intussusceptive capillary growth. The presence of the factor in the application area could be demonstrated with the anti-VEGF antibody for a period of 3 days. The factor is located in the chorionic epithelium and the intraepithelial capillaries. The BrdU-studies show that VEGF165 induces strong endothelial cell proliferation, whereas bFGF elicits fibrocyte proliferation and minor endothelial cell proliferation. Heparin induces squamous metaplasia of the chorionic and allantoic epithelium in combination with an aggregation of fibrocytes. We could not detect any enhancement of VEGF165 by heparin.

    Notes: Bei der Herstellung von Chemieprodukten fallen im Produktionsprozeß häufig Stoffe an, die vom Produzenten nicht angestrebt werden. Sie werden als Rückstände oder Reststoffe bezeichnet. Die Minimierung dieser Stoffe ist Bestandteil des unternehmerischen Umweltschutzes. Am Beispiel der chemischen Industrie wird gezeigt, wie diese ökologische Zielsetzung mit dem Konzept des produktionsintegrierten Umweltschutzes erreicht wird, welche technischen Maßnahmen dazu durchgeführt werden, zu welchem Ergebnis diese führen und welche Grenzen sich hierbei ergeben. Die damit verbundene Kostensituation wird ebenfalls dargestellt.

    Notes: A transparent poly (ether urethane) (PEU) was considered for use as a foldable intraocular lens material. The PEU was found to possess excellent mechanical, optical, and surface characteristics for this application. In uitro hydrolytic and ultraviolet aging studies suggested the PEU to be tolerant to conditions simulating 3-10 years of normal intraocular exposure. Different behavior was obtained, however, from intraocular and subcutaneous implantation of the PEU. After 6 months of intraocular exposure in the feline model, prototype PEU lenses had lost most or all of their optical resolving power. SEM analysis demonstrated scattered pitting and cracking on the lens surfaces. Degradation was found to be more extreme after as little as 30 days of subcutaneous exposure in rabbits. Severe pitting over the entire surface of implanted flat PEU specimens was observed by SEM. Macroscopic examination showed the samples to be frosty in appearance. It was postulated that the subcutaneous implant environment provides an accelerated in uivo model for materials intended for intraocular use. A minimum acceleration of 6-10X was estimated on a preliminary basis. The PEU studied here was found to be unsuitable for use as a foldable intraocular lens material.
