(1986) eur. j. biochem. 156, 521-530]. increasing concentrations of free ca2+ to 1-2 microm resulted in complete inhibition of the association of 70-kda protein, a pr ... | 1987 | 3569290 |

| variations in ambient temperature can lead to incorrect prediction of the luteinizing hormone surge using urinary dipsticks (ovustick). | to prevent laparoscopy from being timed after ovulation has occurred, the detection of luteinizing hormone (lh) surge in women being superovulated for in vitro fertilization is a key factor. urinary dipsticks provide patients with a simple means of monitoring their lh levels at home; however, many patients experience difficulties interpreting the blue color of these sticks and variations in color intensity. to investigate the temperature dependence of these lh urinary dipsticks, the ovustick tes ... | 2013 | 3580334 |
| cytocidal and toxic effect of various cytostatic drugs on three ascites tumors of the mouse. | the cytocidal and toxic effects of four cytotoxic drugs (cy, ddp, vcr, ara-c) were studied using three types of ascites tumors (l 1210, jb-1, eat) growing on three different mouse strains (b6d2f1, akr, nmri). there were considerable differences in the cytocidal effect of the same dose of each drug on the three tumor cell lines; 100% of the l 1210 ascites tumor-bearing animals were permanently cured by a high dose of cy (300 mg/kg) and 30% by ddp (13 mg/kg), while most of the jb-1 and all eat-bea ... | 1987 | 3584212 |
