| two-step freezing of cells used in hybridoma technology. | hybridoma technology requires freezing of parental myeloma cells, continuous freezing and thawing of clones and stable hybridoma cells. a modification of the method of two-step freezing is described. the cryoprotective agent (5% dimethyl sulphoxide) is added to the cells at room temperature for 10 min. cells are then transferred directly to the -25 degrees c bath, held at this temperature for 10 min, and stored directly in liquid nitrogen. thawing is rapid in a water bath warmed to 60-80 degrees ... | 2014 | 4065374 |

| technique for measurement of one-dimensional instantaneous ablation velocity. | an oscillating mirror scanned a he-ne laser beam along the length of a thin rod while the rod was ablated by an argon laser beam. the shadow of the scanning beam on an image plane provides a picture of the instantaneous ablation velocity of the rod. this configuration provides a unique method for investigating one-dimensional ablation. | 2010 | 2976448 |
| long-term antiplatelet activity and safety of indobufen in patients with cardiovascular disease. italian multicenter study group. | an open collaborative study was performed to assess the long-term platelet inhibiting activity, tolerability and safety of indobufen, a new inhibitor of platelet aggregation. the drug was given orally to 151 patients with cardiovascular disease for a period ranging from 6 to 24 months (mean 12.5 months). extensive clinical examination, laboratory investigations and platelet function studies were carried out before the treatment and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 18, 21 and 24 months. indobu ... | 2012 | 3899952 |
