- Normal and abnormal fundi were photographed at various magnifications in one and the same fundus camera, with and without 'red-free' filters and various types of black-and-white and colour films. Colour diapositive films were copied on various black-and-white negative films, with and without filters. The final negatives were evaluated under magnification with regard to resolution and contrast of detail in the nerve fibre layer. Complementary information was obtained by means of conventional resolution measurements at high and low contrast levels. The best overall results were obtained by copying colour slides obtained in unfiltered light on a new high-contrast black-and-white film (Kodak Technical Pan), with a Wratten No. 65 A filter. This simple technique produced negatives with a good definition of the nerve fibre layer, suitable as final records.

- A series of patients with well defined lesions of various parts of the visual pathways was studied in an attempt to iluminate the neuropathophysiology of visual acuity. Acuity was found to remain normal in all cases with unilateral retrochiasmal lesions, including those of the optic tract. Bilateral retrochiasmal lesions involving the foveal nerve fibres on both sides impaired acuity to the same degree in both eyes. Lateral chiasmal lesions regularly produced impaired acuity in the ipsilateral eye. Midchiasmal lesions commonly led to an impairment of visual acuity in both eyes, usually asymmetrically, and roughly proportionate to the severity of the visual field defect. Compression optic neuropathy was found to reduce acuity in rough proportion to the severity of compression. It was concluded that acuity remains normal as long as either the crossing or the non-crossing neural outflow from the retinal fovea remains intact: acuity fails only when both sets of nerve fibres are compromised. A properly executed acuity test seems to be a powerful tool for detecting such conditions. The lower limit of normal acuity should never be set below 1.0 or 20/20: even this level is clearly subnormal in many subjects.

- Total neutral (nonacidic) glycolipid fractions have been isolated from a gastric adenocarcinoma and the surrounding normal gastric tissue removed at laparotomy of a Blood Group B human individual. Each glycolipid mixture was fractionated by silicic acid column chromatography into ten different partly purified glycolipid fractions. These fractions were analyzed by thin-layer chromatography and tested for Blood Group A and B activity. Blood group B activity was found in several fractions from both tumor and normal tissue. Two of the tumor glycolipid fractions reacted with some batches of commercial anti-A antisera, but other antisera tested did not react. No such Blood Group A reactivity was found in the fractions from the normal gastric tissue. The two Blood Group A-active tumor glycolipid fractions were methylated and methylated-reduced, and these two derivatives were analyzed by mass spectrometry. It was shown that these two fractions were mixtures of glycosphingolipids with five to nine sugars. The dominating glycosphingolipids were blood group Leb and B-like hexaglycosylceramides, a B-similar heptaglycosylceramide with an additional fucose, an H-like heptaglycosylceramide, and a Leb-like octaglycosylceramide. Evidence for small amounts of a Blood Group A-similar heptaglycosylceramide with an additional fucose was also found. The finding of a Blood Group A-similar glycolipid in a fraction which reacts with some anti-A antisera is the first chemical evidence for a heterolog blood group antigen in human cancer which has previously been found by histoimmunological techniques. The clinical significance of this finding is discussed in relation to diagnostic procedures and immunotherapy.

- A novel blood group H-active triglycosylceramide has been isolated from rat small intestine. It was present exclusively in the epithelial cells. The structure was established by mass spectrometry, NMR spectroscopy and degradative methods to the Fucp alpha 1 leads to 2Galp beta 1 leads to 4Glcp beta 1 leads to 1Cer. The lipophilic part was made up of mainly trihydroxy base (phytosphingosine) and 16 : 0--24 : 0 fatty acids.
