RESUMO
We compared blood pressure and heart rate changes in healthy patients during anesthesia with sevoflurane (n = 50) versus isoflurane (n = 25) and the rate of recovery after such anesthesia. After premedication with intravenous administration of midazolam, induction of anesthesia with thiopental, and intubation of the trachea facilitated with succinylcholine or vecuronium, anesthesia was maintained with approximately 1 MAC (sevoflurane, 2.05%; isoflurane, 1.15%) of the volatile anesthetic in oxygen for the duration of the operation. Anesthetic concentration was varied as indicated to maintain arterial blood pressure at +/- 20% of baseline values. Sevoflurane and isoflurane produced similar systolic and diastolic arterial blood pressures, but heart rate after incision was faster in patients given isoflurane. Recovery of response to command was shorter in patients given sevoflurane than that in patients given isoflurane (7.5 +/- 0.5 min versus 18.6 +/- 2.0 min). Consistent with this finding, venous blood drawn after anesthesia showed a more rapid initial decay with sevoflurane. Nausea and vomiting were comparable in both groups. We conclude that sevoflurane anesthesia, as compared with isoflurane, is associated with possible advantageous effects on heart rate and recovery.

An analytical method is developed to quantitatively determine glucosamine, galactosamine, and mannosamine in dried-and-ground burley and flue-cured tobaccos. Extraction is shown to be quantitative in the range of 0.01 to 2.0% (w/w). The extraction procedure consists of shaking one g of sample with 50 mL of deionized water adjusted to pH 7 for 30 min. This extract is filtered directly into an autosampler vial. An autosampler is programmed to withdraw two different aliquots: one with o-phthalaldehyde (OPA) derivatizing solution and the second one from the tobacco extract. The derivatization reaction occurs in the tubing connecting the autosampler and the chromatographic column. The OPA derivatives of these aminosugars are then detected with a fluorimetric detector, and their simultaneous analysis is performed with an external standard. This method is shown to be selective, accurate, and precise.
