...recrystallized them by evaporation, found that the sugar molecules had discarded some ordinary hydrogen atoms, taken on deuterium atoms in their stead. When luminous bacteria of the kind that produce phosphorescence in the sea were placed in heavy water at Princeton, their output of light was dimmed because their oxygen consumption was slowed. Pathologists at Manhattan's Memorial Hospital hoped heavy water might prove fatal to cancer cells, were disappointed to find the cells vigorous as ever after prolonged immersion...
...Banker Kahn died, the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology heard Boston's Drs. Herrmann Ludwig Blumgart and David Daniel Berlin tell how they had effected ''striking relief" from angina. A thyroid gland secretion regulates the rate at which the body converts food and oxygen into energy (metabolism). Drs. Blumgart and Berlin cut the thyroid gland from 20 angina patients, thus slowing down the rate of metabolism. Functioning normally at a lower level, the heart was not balked when called on for extra work. Not one of the 20 patients has since been wracked by angina...
When six minutes had elapsed since the last heartbeat, sallow young Dr. Robert E. Cornish moved Lazarus II to a seesaw-like device called a teeterboard. There he opened one of the terrier's thigh veins to admit a saline solution saturated with oxygen and containing the heart stimulant adrenalin, the liver extract heparin and some canine blood from which the fibrin (coagulating substance) had been removed. While he breathed gustily into the dog's mouth, his assistant rubbed the kinky-haired little body, rocked it on the teeterboard. The stimulant solution sank in a glass gauge...
...years ago the problem of resuscitation began to absorb Dr. Cornish. Last year he tried but failed to revive a man dead five hours of heart disease with oxygen mask and teeterboard, no injections. He had no better luck with two men dead six hours...
...suit" which he claimed he had invented with the help of someone named Ring. The suit was composed of cotton cloth and thin laminated aluminum in twelve alternating layers. To protect himself from deadly fumes emanating from the ice he also put on a mask connected to a small oxygen tank carried in his hand. He clumped up a stepladder, lifted the box's lid. climbed down inside. A few slow seconds went by. A thick-gloved hand waved feebly. A spectator shouted. There was a quick cluster of men around the box as a dozen hands lifted...
