The transport index (TI) of a radioactive material is a measurement used to assess the external radiation field that may be present around a package during transportation. It is typically displayed on the outside of the packaging and helps to ensure that radiation levels are within safe limits for transportation workers and the public. The TI value is based on the maximum radiation dose rate at the surface of the package measured in millisieverts per hour.

Which is correct for suture material Tycron or Ti-Cron?

Steadman's lists both spellings and I believe they are sold under both names (depending on manufacturer), but in my experience Ti-Cron is the preferred spelling, probably by virtue of its being the bigger seller.


Are drugs with low therapeutic index more effective?

Not necessarily. Simply put, a low TI indicates that the dose that causes a beneficial effect is "close" to the dose that causes unacceptable toxicity or lethality. A drug with a large or wide TI means that the dose that causes the beneficial effect is far lower than the dose that causes toxicity or lethality. If a drug has a TI of 2, then the drug dose that causes toxicity is twice that which causes the benefit. So a mistake of taking 2 pills instead of 1 can be disastrous. If a drug has a therapeutic index of 13, then the dose expected to cause toxicity is 13x that which causes the toxic effects, and is pretty safe. To compare effectiveness of a drug, you have to compare drug efficacy and TI. For a large TI drug, sometimes you just need to increase the dose. In the example above where TI=13, you could increase the dose 6 0r 7 times and you may not see an increase in toxic effects.
