Evaluation of mutagenicity testing with Salmonella typhimurium TA102 in three different laboratories.

abstract：:In this article we report a simple and efficient method for detecting nonsteroidal estrogens in a biologic sample. This method uses polyclonal antibodies to estradiol (E2) to immunoprecipitate these major biologically active steroidal estrogens, leaving behind the nonsteroidal estrogens, which are then detected in a c...
