Abstract: The mixed lymphocyte reaction in tissue culture is used to detect the tumor induced autoimmune reaction which has been found to be characteristic of lymphoid malignancies. Lymphocytes from blood, spleen, and lymph nodes are employed in combinations of two. A mixed lymphocyte reaction from any one of the three possible combinations is indicative of the presence of a lymphoid malignancy.

Abstract: Dextrorotatory stereoisomers of beta-adrenergic stimulatory phenethanolamines such as isoproterenol, soterenol, salbutamol, carbuterol, terbutaline, and metaproterenol lower normal or elevated intraocular pressure when topically administered to the eye. Reduction in intraocular pressure is of particular importance in the treatment of glaucoma, a disease marked by ocular hypertension. The dextrorotatory phenethanolamine compounds employed in the process of the present invention are notable for the low order of adrenergic activity in contrast to levorotatory and racemic stereoisomeric forms which are very potent beta-adrenergic stimulatory agents. Consequently, those side effects generally associated with adrenergic activation such as tachycardia, mydriasis, hypertension and hypotension are absent.
