Immunoreactivity of paraffin-embedded normal tissues and mesenchymal tumors for smooth muscle myosin.

abstract：:Data from the 1978 CAP Hematology Survey were analyzed for the effect of sodium and calcium salts of heparin on the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT). The results indicate that the sodium salt of heparin prolongs the APTT more than the calcium salt at a heparin concentration of 0.2 units/ml. Furthermore, th...
