State-of-the-art precision values are presented for the following serum constituents: aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13), alpha-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.30), cholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.8), cortisol, gamma glutamyl transferase (EC 2.3.2.2), haptoglobin, immunoglobulins, lactic acid, leucine aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.1.1), total lipids, osmolality, protein fractions, T3 uptake, thyroxine and vitamin B12. Precision estimates are based on values reported for four lyophilized serum pools analyzed by participants in the Pennsylvania Association of Clinical Pathologists regional quality control program for clinical chemistry, during 1976, 1977 and 1978. Use of the upper limit of the "most common range" of precision (that range including the 75 percent most precise laboratories) as a warning level for trouble-shooting is advocated.

A chromatolysis study, 14 to 21 days following denervation, showed the spinal cord representation of the nerve to the posterior latissimus dorsi muscle to be in the ventrolateral cell column between cervical ganglia 14 and 15. to characterize cevical neruos nt undergoing chromatolysis, histochemical stuies were done the cords of additional nondenervated animals. Staining reactions for beta-hydrocybutyrate dehydrogenase, succinic dehydrogenase and cholinesterase did not reveal any quantitative differences between motor neurons in cervical segments 14 and 15 of normal and dystrophic birds. Motor neurons are positive for beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase and succinic dehydrogenase, but the surrounding neuropil is positive for the latter only. No pseudocholinesterase activity is found in the ventral horn cells, but true cholinesterase is present in most of the neurons...

When cervical segments 14 to 15 of the chicken spinal cord are cut transversely and studied by routine histological and histochemical methods, an onion-shaped region, filled with thread-like fibers, is seen to surround the ependymal cells of the central canal and to be bounded laterally by the neural elements of the spinal gray matter. This area is negative for succinic dehydrogenase, beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase and cholinesterase activity, but very strongly periodic acid-Schiff positive. Diastase controls show the positive material to be glycogen. Parasagittal sections through this cervical region and into the upper thoracic cord, show the glycogen-rich region to extend longitudinally throughout the region. Because of its location and histochemical characterization, which are similar to that of the ventral portion of the glycogen body, the term brachial glycogen body is proposed for this structure.
