The medicines that are commonly used as sclerosants are polidocanol ( POL ), sodium tetradecyl sulphate ( STS ), Sclerodex ( Canada ), Hypertonic Saline, Glycerin and Chromated Glycerin.

STS ( branded Fibrovein in Australia ) and Polidocanol ( branded Asclera in the United States, Aethoxysklerol in Australia ) liquids can be mixed at varying concentrations of sclerosant and varying sclerosant / gas proportions, with air or CO < sub > 2 </ sub > or O < sub > 2 </ sub > to create foams.

A study by Kanter and Thibault in 1996 reported a 76 % success rate at 24 months in treating saphenofemoral junction and great saphenous vein incompetence with STS 3 % solution.

SONET refers to this basic unit as an STS-3c ( Synchronous Transport Signal 3, concatenated ) or OC-3c, depending on whether the signal is carried electrically ( STS ) or optically ( OC ), but its high-level functionality, frame size, and bit-rate are the same as STM-1.

Using internal software, one or more of these lines could be used to establish links to other STS stations, effectively making the number of simultaneous users dependent on how many STS's were involved.

The sysop could assign a moderator level to any user, effectively giving them power to do various tasks such as creating specialty channels, making links to other STS stations, moderating lower-level users, and kicking out people who were being a nuisance, ( one early feature added was used to ban " nuisance " guests from returning after they were kicked, using the then-recently emerging technology of caller ID ).
