TL;DR
A number of important problems seem to remain in connection with night- and shiftwork, including the shortening of sleep after nightwork and changes of the circadian rhythms during nightwork.
Abstract
A number of important problems seem to remain in connection with night- and shiftwork.Among these are the following: 1. Causes of the shortening of sleep after nightwork, 2. Changes of the circadian rhythms during nightwork, 3. Synchronization or desynchronization of the circadian rhythms of different functions.

Nerve granules are more sensitive to temperature than adrenal medullary granules but show higher resistance to freezing and thawing and osmotic changes, and noradrenaline is rapidly released even at low temperature at pH 4 and below, and by detergents.

By the addition of small amounts of ethylene diamine (EDA) to the alkali-ascorbic acid mixture used in the trihydroxyindole (THI) method the discoloration of reaction mixture and instability of fluorescence can be prevented, allowing blanks to maintain their fluorescence values for several hours.
