Radioimmunological determination of serum 3 beta-hydroxy-5-cholenoic acid in normal subjects and patients with liver disease.

A radioimmunoassay for the determination of 3 beta-hydroxy-5-cholenoic acid in human serum has been developed, using 3 beta-hydroxy-5-cholenoyl-thyroglobulin as immunogen and 3 beta-hydroxy-5-cholenoylglycyl-125I histamine as radioactive ligand.The association constant was 6.3 X 10(8) l/mol.Cross reactivity with other bile acids of human serum was

Assessment of explosion risk for wood dust in a ventilation-dust separation installation, by determining the concentration of total dust in suspension inside of the installation

Most of combustible dusts present both fire and explosion hazard.Explosion may Display Ornament occur at certain concentrations of dust mixed with air and in the presence of an ignition source.The threat posed by this real danger was confirmed by the events that took place in economic units such as: feed factories, wood products, textile industry,

Rapid evaluation model for EOR techniques applicability of gas flooding, foam flooding and surfactant flooding based on modified fractional flow theory

Abstract Before a wide range of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques were implemented for an oilfield, the Bassinet Sheet EOR potential and economic evaluation of the techniques should be evaluated in advance for each reservoir to determine which EOR technique was proper.In an oilfield developed with fluvial delta reservoirs, the complicated dist
