Abstract:
:A method is presented for the assay of delta-aminolaevulinate dehydratase (EC 4.2.1.24) to be performed on 10 microL of whole blood. Results compare favorably with those obtained with an accepted method (J. Clin. Chem. Clin. Bio-chem. 12: 389-390, 1974) that involves use of 200 microL of blood.

杂志文章abstract::The diagnosis of thyroid disease now often can be achieved reliably by measuring thyrotropin (TSH) alone. Thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine, and other analytes are only needed if TSH and the accompanying clinical condition are discordant. We describe here work that confirms the age independence of TSH in both inpatient...
