General Aniline & Film Con'· lias made price reductions ranging to 5 0 % on its PVP, or polyvinylpyrrolidone, of which the company is the sole manufacturer in the western hemisphere. It has reduced Plasdone, the pharmaceutical grade, from $12 per pound to $6. This includes Plas­ done G, the blood plasma expander grade. The nonphannaccutical grade, PVP type ΝΡ, has been marked down from $6 per pound to $3, involving quan­ tities in 100-lb. lots, or greater. The pharmaceutical grade is also used as a binder for tablets, as a retardant, in protaine-penicillin suspensions, and else­ where, while the nonphannaccutical grade is of interest as a thickener, solu­ biliser, detoxifies*· and stabilizer, partic­ ularly in the cosmetic and food industries.

Changes, exceeds the number of declines. This is d u e in part to more liberal atti­ tude of OPS in removing price ceilings and to the greater industrial and busi­ ness activity noted the past several weeks, all of which tend to make many items a seller's rather than buyer's market. American Cyanamid Co. will discon­ tinue sale of all grades of casein in Janu­ ary "in order to better market and serv­ ice t h e w i d e line of chemicals that w e manufacture for the paper industry," as expressed b y John M. Walsh, manager of t h e company's paper chemicals depart­ ment. However, the company will con­ tinue to accept orders for December de­ liveries. Cyanamid has for 40 years been the exclusive United States distributor of casein for River Plate Dairy Co., an Argentine firm. This firm has named Tupman Thurlow Co., Inc., 155 East 44th St., N e w York, as its distributor, effective Jan. 1, 1953. The price of Argentine casein, duty paid, American ports, declined recently to 18.5 cents per pound from 19.25 cents. Price quotations of allcthrin, as carried in C&EN, issues of Nov. 3 and Dec. 1, 1952, were apparently incorrect. T h e correct quotations are: 100% basis, $32 per pound; 9 0 % , $28.80. Producers point out that the 1 0 0 % grade is theoretical and that practical grades involve certain percentages of strength, of which 9 0 % is typical.
