High-performance liquid chromatography as a technique to measure the competitive adsorption of plasma proteins onto latices [PDF]
Isotherms of human serum albumin (HSA), human immunoglobulin G (HIgG), and human fibrinogen (HFb) onto a polystyrene (PS)-latex were determined by depletion of protein in the solution, which was either followed by radioactivity measurements or by UV ...

Effect of an extract of Centella asiatica on the biodistribution of sodium pertechnetate (Na99mTcO4) and on the fixation of radioactivity on blood constituents [PDF]
This study evaluates the effects of an acute treatment with a Centella asiatica (CA) extract on the biodistribution of the radiopharmaceutical Na99mTcO4 and on the fixation of technetium-99m on blood constituents. Wistar rats were treated with CA extract

Theory of the two-proton radioactivity in the continuum shell model
We develop the microscopic description of the two-nucleon radioactivity in the framework of the Shell Model Embedded in the Continuum. This approach is applied for the description of spontaneous two-proton radioactivity in $^{45}$Fe, $^{48}$Ni and $^{54}$

Glucose-targeted niosomes deliver vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) to the brain [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate glucose-bearing niosomes as a brain targeted delivery system for the vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP). To this end, VIP/125I-VIP-loaded glucose-bearing niosomes were intravenously injected to mice.

Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...
